Li Anran walked into this office for the second time. He saw Han Man here last time, and he didn't know who he could see this time.
Minister Zhao’s attitude is obviously very different from the last time. It has been more than ten minutes since he came in. I can only hear the rustling sound of him writing on the paper and the rare sound of coughing, but there is no other movement. .
Li Anran, who was originally very relaxed, gradually became nervous at this moment.
This is such a show of force, it means that the old man will deal with himself next.
I thought about all my actions during this period, without first thinking about what went wrong with me. Calm down, calm down, since the old man is talking alone in the office, it means that the matter is not particularly serious. Besides, with Li Ningbo supporting him, even if the matter is serious, there is still a chance to make it smaller.
He kept comforting himself, and then he looked at his eyes, nose, mouth, and heart, and sat quietly, motionless.
The sound of writing finally stopped. Minister Zhao screwed on the pen cap, picked up the tea cup and wanted to drink, but found that there was no water.
Li Anran immediately stood up and went to get a hot water bottle to refill, with a flattering smile on his face, "Zhao Bu, I brought some Cuban cigars this time, how about you try them?"
Minister Zhao ignored him, took a sip of tea, then pointed to the chair in front of the desk and motioned for him to sit down. "People say that a thief has a guilty conscience, but you are quite good at calming down."
Hearing that the words were wrong, Li Anran quickly leaned over and said, "Anran has never done anything to disgrace the party or the country." He also deliberately said The pronunciation of the three words "party and country" is emphasized, which means that things done outside that are sorry to outsiders do not count.
"Hmph, it seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Let me ask you, are you in contact with Ryusuke Yasuda, the embassy in this book?"
Li Anran's mind It exploded with a bang. How could Minister Zhao know such a secret thing? Then he judged that someone must have leaked the secret, and it was one of two people, Hiroshige Amano and Nami Aoi.
"We met once and negotiated a business deal." Li Anran did not tell the truth immediately. After all, the gold matter was not easy to explain, but it was indeed not illegal. The regulations regarding the ownership of gold and silver buried underground have not been promulgated yet. They were officially promulgated by the Supreme Court in 1988, which is still five years away.
"Oh? What business?" Minister Zhao asked with squinted eyes.
"This..." Li Anran pretended to be embarrassed. In fact, he filtered through the laws and regulations he saw in last year's books in his mind. After confirming that there was indeed nothing illegal, he gritted his teeth and answered, "It stands to reason. It's a trade secret, but if Director Zhao wants to know it, I will tell you the truth."
Minister Zhao snorted, "That's a lot of bullshit, tell me quickly."
"My hand. There is a batch of gold pledged to Fuji Bank. Ryusuke Yasuda is the representative of Fuji Bank. The representative office of the Export-Import Bank of China is the guarantor. The representative is Amano.Haocheng. "
"How much gold? "
"One hundred and sixty kilograms. "
"Where did it come from? "Minister Zhao almost jumped up. He couldn't have imagined that there would be such a large number.
Li Anran was silent for a while and finally said, "They were dug out of the ground. "
"Hehehehe, which piece of land has gold growing in it? You should give me some advice. I'm very short of money recently, so it's up to you to give me some advice. "Minister Zhao sneered again and again, but his eyes were extremely sharp. In his heart, Li Anran was just talking nonsense.
"Short of money? Okay, I'll tell you a treasure that I guarantee you won't be able to use up in thirty years. "
Minister Zhao laughed angrily, "Hahaha, okay, okay, if you tell me the treasure that I can't spend in thirty years, I won't care about your business. Otherwise..."
Li Anran was not threatened by his words, but took a pen and paper and wrote a line on it. There is a treasure hidden by Zhang Xianzhong at the bottom of the Minjiang River in Jiangkou Town, Pengshan, Sichuan. The nursery rhyme goes: Dragon and ox versus stone and tiger, someone can see through it and buy all the money in Chengdu.
Minister Zhao looked at it with doubts in his eyes, "Zhang Xianzhong's treasure?" "
"When Zhang Xianzhong evacuated Chengdu and fled to western Sichuan, he took the wealth he had looted from five provinces with him on a ship. As a result, he was attacked by Ming general Yang Zhan with a fire attack on this section of the river. Zhang Xianzhong had no choice but to order most of the gold and silver to be sunk into the river and took advantage of the chaos to escape. This nursery rhyme is the motto left by Zhang Xianzhong when he ordered his men to take care of the treasure here. "
"Just go to Jiangkou Town and find the dragon and tiger stone carvings on both sides of the bank. The river bottom corresponding to their connection is the treasure trove of Zhang Xianzhong's shipwreck. "
Minister Zhao saw that he was talking clearly and couldn't help asking, "How do you know? "
"Read a book. There is a golden house in the book. Isn't this the golden house? People's nursery rhymes have made it very clear that the reason why you can't find the hidden treasure is just because those people are too stupid. "
In fact, it's not that I'm stupid, the Minjiang River is too deep.
Minister Zhao didn't believe it. He chirped a few times and said, "You kid, talk nonsense, in case you can't find it. what to do? ”
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
“If you like the head on An Ran’s neck, take it.” "No wonder Li Anran is so determined, he has been to the scene and saw the dragon carving with his own eyes.
"How many treasures are there? "Minister Zhao believed it. He is from Shaanxi. He has heard about the legend of Li Zicheng's treasure hiding since he was a child, and he also saw someone digging up treasures in the farmland in the suburbs of Chang'an. This is the first time he has heard about Zhang Xianzhong's treasure hiding, but Since Li Anran said it so clearly and his attitude was so firm, he couldn't help but not believe it.
"I don't know the details. Dozens of ships filled with gold and silver are worth immeasurable value. ”
“Go and sit over there.” "The old man rushed Li Anran to the sofa and picked up the phone himself, "Put anyZhengsheng called, right away. "
After a while, Ren Zhengsheng came. When he saw Li Anran in the room, he was stunned for a moment. Without any other nonsense, he saluted and asked, "Bu Zhao, are you looking for me? "
Minister Zhao repeated what Li Anran just said, and then handed him the piece of paper, "Immediately organize personnel to go to Jiangkou Town to investigate, and report the results immediately. ”
“Yes. "Ren Zhengsheng glanced at Li Anran, saw him nodding slightly, and then turned and left.
"Okay, I won't pursue the gold matter. Let's talk about the matter between you and Yasuda Ryusuke. Do you know..."
"I know, he is a spy, I have discovered it a long time ago. "Li Anran replied.
Minister Zhao's eyes almost popped out, "You know? "
Li Anran told the story about the tailor shop.
"Why not report it? "Minister Zhao was really a little angry.
"So what if I reported it? Catch him? The most important thing for the country now is to introduce foreign investment, and those flies, mosquitoes and cockroaches will inevitably come in. As for the lesser of two evils, our focus is on the economy and these cockroaches are harmless. ”
“Harmless?” Minister Zhao couldn't help but slap the table, "Do you know how much damage they will cause to the country after stealing intelligence?" "
"Now that we all know they are spies, what's wrong with using them in reverse? Li Anran didn't know where the courage came from, so he immediately retorted. "Besides, they should have been in the sight of the police a long time ago, right?" Why do I have to do so much? "
Minister Zhao has never seen anyone contradict him, and he was so angry that he could not speak.
"Minister Zhao, don't be angry either. I promise you, as long as you make good use of him, I will earn you 100 million US dollars in the next ten years. ”
“One hundred million, US dollars? " Zhao Bu laughed angrily, "Hahahaha, I've seen a toad panting heavily. This is the first time I've seen one that can pant like this. ”
“Bu Zhao, I don’t dare to talk nonsense in front of your boss. My uncle knows he has to break my legs.” Well, can you borrow foreign exchange? As much as you have, I will double it for you at the end of the year. Then you will know whether I am a toad or not. "
Bu Zhao suddenly woke up and asked after a while, "Did Huang Qiuping lend you the money? "
"Huang Qiuping? Who? "Li Anran didn't react. He had never heard of this name.
"Huang Wei's father. ”
“Oh, then I know. "Li Anran kept calling him Uncle Huang, but she really didn't know his name. "Indeed. "
Zhao Bu's face was uncertain. He thought for a long time before asking, "Can it be doubled by the end of the year? "
"At least double. If it cannot be completed, you will confiscate all my property in the capital. "
"Get out. "Minister Zhao cursed,He stood up and walked around the house several times, which showed how intense the ideological struggle was.
Minister Zhao trusts Li Anran. Not to mention other relationships, Li Ningbo was brought out by him from the Northeast Army. He traveled all over the country and has always been one of his most effective generals. The relationship between the two is that of superior and subordinate, more of a master-disciple relationship, and their level of trust is far beyond ordinary people.
From what he knew about Li Anran during this period, he also knew that this boy was quite good at making money. Since Huang Qiuping can trust him, why can't he give it a try? Making money can at least alleviate the financial pressure on the ministry, right?
At this time, neither the army nor the government agencies were talking about developing the tertiary industry, so it was very risky to make this determination. No wonder Minister Zhao was hesitant.
Of course, the military's development of the tertiary industry did reduce the financial pressure on the military, but it also brought some very bad negative effects, and it was later banned. This is a story for later, let's not mention it for now.
