The life of a spy is miserable.

This is how Meng Shaoyuan really feels now.

During the Chinese New Year, everyone is on holiday, but they are still on duty.

Especially when walking on the road and seeing adults laughing and children making noise, I must feel a little sour.

There is no other way, who is letting myself do this now?

I'm going to Tang Zong's house for dinner tonight. It's my first time visiting, so I can't go empty-handed, right?

It's not like Meng Shaoyuan's era, when the shopping malls stayed open during the Chinese New Year.

Here, Chinese New Year means Chinese New Year, and there are really few shops open for business.

After searching for a long time, I finally found one and bought some gifts, which made me feel relaxed.

When it was time to get off work, I came to Tang Zong's house with gifts.

His wife is not in Nanjing, and the nanny does all the household chores.

A table of dishes has been prepared long ago.

Then, Meng Shaoyuan rubbed his eyes, not believing what he saw at all.

There were six bottles of Maotai on the dinner table.

"No." Meng Shaoyuan was a little skeptical: "Chief Tang, how many of us are there?"

"It's just you and me, and Director Dai."

"Does that require six bottles of wine?"

"Director Dai is famous for his drinking capacity. If he doesn't drink, he will drink two bottles in one meal!"

My mother-in-law and ancestor!

Meng Shaoyuan had read in a book before that Dai Li drank a lot and liked to drink heavily, two bottles of Maotai at a time.

I originally thought it must be exaggerated, but what I never expected was that it was actually true?

Oh my God.

Meng Shaoyuan could drink some wine, and half a pound of white wine would be enough, but he could barely drink more than that.

When he reached seven or eight taels, it was already his limit.

Two bottles of white wine?

Just kidding.

While he was dumbfounded, Dai Li finally arrived.

The three of them sat down and the wine was poured.

Meng Shaoyuan found that there were still two packs of cigarettes left.

Dai Li does not smoke, and he also dislikes being smoked.

But look, Tang Zong's living room is very large and airy, and there are only three people sitting at a big round table. Even if he smokes, it won't have much impact on non-smokers.

Of course, this is the perception of people in this era.

Tang Zong offered a toast, not a wine cup, but a cup for drinking foreign wine.

Good guy, Meng Shaoyuan saw with his own eyes that half a cup still contains two ounces of wine, but Dai Li drank it all in one gulp.

There are two bottles of wine in front of each person. No one is required to pour them, they all drink them and pour them themselves.

Tang Zong poured wine and lit a cigarette:

"Xiao Meng, pour your own wine and smoke your own cigarettes."

"Hey, okay."

In this era, Meng Shaoyuan, who rarely smoked before, was addicted to cigarettes.

There is no way, a male agent who doesn't smoke is simply an anomaly.

"The Third Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China will be held soon. Old Tang, is there anything unusual?" Even while eating the New Year's dinner, Dai Li still brought the topic to work.

"Everything is normal." Tang Zong quickly replied: "According to the information provided by Xiao Meng, there is no abnormality at Qianye Trading Company, and the other several Japanese special contact points we have are also in peace."

"Those Japanese are very cunning." Dai Li nodded slightly: "Knowing that there are major government activities in Nanjing, so they all stopped and will never be caught in the crossfire." All contact points that have been grasped, do not touch them.

."

Dai Li is playing the long game to catch the big fish.

At this time, there is no opponent for Dai Li in the Hua Rite Agency.

"One more thing." Dai Li drank another glass of wine and put down the glass: "You may have heard about it, but now I will confirm it for you two alone. The merger has been confirmed and will be carried out in April. Those in the Central Organization Department

People and we will become colleagues."

In fact, Meng Shaoyuan had known about it for a long time.

Tang Zong sneered: "It seems that competition is inevitable, and there may be some conflicts. Didn't their Section Chief Xu Enzeng Xu directly say on many occasions that he would find an opportunity to give Xiao Meng a good shake?

?”

Is there still such a thing? Have you said it publicly?

Dai Li's eyes fell on Meng Shaoyuan: "Xiao Meng, what do you think?"

"We have a clear conscience." Meng Shaoyuan quickly replied: "We are all loyal to the party and the country, and we have no selfish intentions. If others do not bully us, we will not cause trouble, but if someone rides on me, maybe Shaoyuan will do it.

Something out of the ordinary."

Dai Li smiled: "Those people in the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China are just talking nonsense. As long as you have no political problems, no one can do anything to you. Although they are merged, the division of labor is still different. Shaoyuan, please put your mind on it."

When it comes to work, you don’t have to think too much about other things.”

"Yes, Shao Yuan understands."

"Director Dai, you have never valued anyone so highly." Tang Zong said with a smile: "The four great kings under your command are all your treasures, but even Shen Zui, who is the most valued by you, did not receive as much favor as you did in the past.

There are so many Meng.”

"Talents need to emerge in batches." Dai Li said slowly: "I strive to keep talents in the society. These people are all heroes for a while, but it is useless to just rest on their previous achievements. Now, you are calling me

Those who have become the Four Vajras have already taken on their own roles. What about the subsequent talents? They also need to be cultivated. Our Lixing Society cannot only have the Four Vajras.

Those four people have outstanding professional abilities, but each of them has quite a lot of flaws. He is obsessed with youth and energy, and can easily offend others. Wang Tianmu lives a luxurious life, Zhao Lijun has a bad reputation, and Chen Gongpeng has a slight lack of willpower. They are all far from my standards.

There is a certain gap. If we can cultivate a perfect agent, it can be regarded as my small contribution..."

It can be seen that Dai Li's way of thinking is very advanced.

The current Lixing Society, as Dai Li said, is full of talents. The heads of various places and the main business backbones all have outstanding abilities and are young and powerful.

But Dai Li is still not satisfied, and is still actively creating new blood for Lixingshe, trying to prevent the talent structure of this organization from being cut off.

However, it is really difficult to train perfect agents.

Meng Shaoyuan knew that Dai Li valued him very much and had high expectations, but he wanted to achieve the word "perfect"?

"I see Xiao Mengxing." Tang Zong's words didn't sound like a compliment: "During the test during this period, the tasks have been completed well. The most important thing is that he has a good reputation in our second office. A young man

It’s not easy for people to get along like a fish in water among a group of veterans. Sooner or later, I will become the number one general under your command, Director Dai."

Meng Shaoyuan felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"Drink, drink, Xiao Meng, why don't you drink?" Tang Zong said immediately: "Come on, you have to give the director a drink to thank him for cultivating you."

Meng Shaoyuan braced himself and raised his cup: "Mr. Dai, thank you."

Take one bite.

Meng Shaoyuan frowned.

"Have you contacted Commander Xiao?" Dai Li asked about this matter.

"I contacted him, but Commander Xiao didn't say a word."

"If you don't say a word, that means you agree." Dai Li smiled half-heartedly: "Old Tang, are you ready for the materials I asked you to prepare?"

"Ready." Tang Zong said calmly: "There are enough materials. I will give them to Xiao Meng when I leave."

Meng Shaoyuan felt confident.

With Dai Li's support and Tang Zong's full assistance, Zhan Xirui may not be able to leave Nanjing this time.

The main reason why Zhansiri ended up where he is today is that he offended too many people.

If a person makes enemies everywhere, death is not far away.

Not long after, one bottle of wine was finished, and Dai Li opened a second bottle: "Shaoyuan, those special operations groups of yours are well trained. I have always wanted to set up a similar organization in Lixingshe. It seems that

You will be responsible for it when the time comes."

Of course Meng Shaoyuan knew that this similar organization was the "Armed Rangers" that was later unified by the military.

Coupled with the Loyalty and National Salvation Army in various places, this will be the main paramilitary force of the military in the future Anti-Japanese War.
