Chapter 105 Ending
Lin Wen asked in surprise: "You still have old forces?"
Qin Luoshuang raised her brows slightly: "You don't know? Then why do you think I have talent?"
Lin Wen said: "The immortal showed me the way."
Qin Luoshuang knew that he often said some weird and irrelevant things, but she didn't care and continued, "When the new guards arrive, I will break them up and form a new team to fill your first department, the KGB."
Lin Wen waved his hand and said, "Just take care of these things. No need to tell me."
Qin Luoshuang nodded. "Now let's get down to business. We turned Qingcheng upside down. We smashed their mansion and moved their inventory, but I didn't touch the money belonging to Zhongzhou and our headquarters. We can't expand the scope of the attack, so this will give us some room for recovery."
Lin Wen nodded, indicating that he understood her words, and then continued, "You are the director of the Foreign Affairs Bureau. You are responsible for these things. You don't need to tell me."
Qin Luoshuang sighed and continued, "Since Xiang Henian has been killed by you, I have confiscated all of his property. Yu Zhongxian also has a lot of property in Qingcheng. Since we are already mortal enemies, I have confiscated all of it as well. The total income is still being counted, and it is estimated to be no less than 200 million."
"These are just floating assets. If I can't get anything more valuable back, I'll burn them all. Zhongzhou's Governor Wang Bo'an and Yu Zhongxian are just ordinary allies. There's no need to mobilize a large number of military and police forces to fight us. They just let us go."
Lin Wen smiled a little: "Well done! That's my style."
"but!"
Qin Luoshuang emphasized:
"I don't know how to evaluate your actions. Based on my past understanding of the Empire, you should have died a thousand times over. The grass on your grave should be at least two meters high to be considered reasonable."
"But since you've survived, it proves that you have your own unique way of survival. No matter what kind of struggle and compromise it is, I hope you can continue to exist."
Lin Wen smiled slightly: "If one day I am gone, will you continue to move forward?"
Qin Luoshuang looked at him and he looked at her. The light in the temporary office was dim and not bright. Dark shadows were hidden in the four corners of the office, moving around with the shaking of the light.
And outside this small hut that is emitting light, there is a greater darkness that covers the sky and the earth.
"I don't know." She lowered her head and said softly, "Maybe I don't have the power."
"It doesn't matter," Lin Wen said. "Remember this: do your best to protect their safety and save their lives. You can shape them into people who are forced to obey my terrifying dictatorship."
Although Lin Wen did not say who "they" were, both of them knew who "they" were.
Qin Luoshuang didn't say anything, and nodded after a while.
Lin Wen smiled and said, "Go on. I was just joking. The great County Governor Lin will live forever. It is impossible for him to fail."
Qin Luoshuang forced a smile and continued, "We've breached all prisons, including the Castle Prison, and brought back all the detainees. Fang Yaobo, the head of the trial court, is still conducting a review. A large number of farmers also followed us back to Changshan County. They're all in Shangxi Town now, about 30,000 in total. The KMT is working hard to resettle them."
Lin Wen nodded. He had already felt the continuous good fortune coming from this group of people. Although there were still few of them now, they would soon increase in number, just like the disaster victims rebuilding their homes.
"We have also arrested a large number of local bullies and gentry, and have all been detained by Fang Yaobo, awaiting trial."
Lin Wen added: "All of these people will be sent to Shangxi Town for trial, and the jurors will be local farmers."
Qin Luoshuang felt a little strange, but did not ask any more questions. She continued, "In short, we have gained a lot, but we also have more problems. It all depends on whether Governor Sheng can help you deal with them."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "It's actually no big deal."
Qin Luoshuang thought for a while and actually nodded. "It's nothing more than spending money. The only victims are Yu Zhongxian and his gang. As long as we win over their enemies, convince the neutral factions, and use Governor Sheng's face, we can get through. I have destroyed all the evidence of your assassination of officials. Without solid evidence, I can't accuse you. But I can't clean up the traces of you and your Dragon Group using weapons of mass destruction. You will definitely be questioned, but you can deny it."
Lin Wen laughed and said, "I'm best at talking nonsense."
Qin Luoshuang snorted softly: "I see."
After a pause, he continued, "The thirteen-state joint meeting at the Imperial headquarters will begin soon. Everything you've done will be dug up and attacked. Whether you can survive this depends entirely on your performance. I will do my best to help you collect evidence and coordinate the work before the meeting."
Lin Wen asked curiously, "I've heard about this meeting several times. What exactly is it?"
Qin Luoshuang sighed, "The State Joint Conference is a meeting held by the Empire Headquarters. It is an important meeting to regularly manage the affairs of each state."
She knew that Lin Wen could not be judged by normal people's thinking, so she simply said everything.
"The Imperial Headquarters is the executive branch of the Supreme Council of Elders. The Supreme Council's position is too high, and most people cannot reach it. Therefore, the Imperial Headquarters has become its acting manager, responsible for many daily affairs, and has enormous power. It can bypass the Governor to dismiss local officials, and even impeach the Governor himself. The State Joint Conference is convened for such matters."
"In addition to the Thirteen-State Joint Conference that manages the central and eastern regions, there is also the Seven-State Joint Conference that manages the western and southern regions, and the Nine-State Joint Conference that manages the northern regions."
"You're involved in the Thirteen Provinces Joint Conference. Yu Zhongxian will definitely launch an all-out attack on you at the conference, striving to defeat you and make you incurable, so that he can tear a large piece of flesh from Sheng Huaixuan. At the Joint Provinces Conference, unlike at the Governor's Conference, Sheng Huaixuan will find it difficult to completely protect you, and he's in big trouble himself."
"If he feels the situation is not right, he will probably sacrifice his own strategy to save his own, cutting his losses, so your current situation is actually very dangerous."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "Don't you have me? You won't let me get beaten, right?"
Qin Luoshuang lowered her eyes and said softly, "Of course, I will never do that."
The lights flickered and dimmed. Lin Wen was familiar with this phenomenon, having experienced it countless times at home as a child. He smiled and said, "The voltage has dropped again. Some high-power equipment has started up again. It seems that the empire's electricity supply is also very tight."
Qin Luoshuang looked at the dim light, not knowing what she was thinking of, and remained silent for a long time.
Suddenly, the ringing of the phone interrupted their silence.
It was a call from the First Hospital. After Qin Luoshuang answered the phone, she said seriously, "Mr. Zhao Ming has woken up."
