1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 498
He Qiang was silent for a while before he spoke again: "Little Li, you have been in Sanya for several months. In your opinion, is Haihan not as good as Daming?"

Li Qingyang murmured: "Under Hai Han's rule, the people's livelihood is peaceful and the market is prosperous. As far as governing the local area is concerned, they are indeed good hands. It's just that these people don't respect the sages and the orthodoxy. This barbarian thinking is a big problem. If they are willing to submit to the orthodoxy, Surrender to the imperial court, maybe there will be a good way out..."

"Xiao Li, that's wrong." He Qiang interrupted him softly: "If they submit to the court, I'm afraid the court will punish them immediately!"

"Where did you start..." Li Qingyang came to his senses as soon as he spoke.

Sure enough, He Qiang continued: "These Haihan people can govern the world, know how to train soldiers, and can also make money. Do you think the court will allow such omnipotent people to continue to exist? If I were a high-ranking official in the court, I would hear such People exist, I am afraid the first thing is to send people to arrest them and kill them!"

"Guan He is also a family opinion. It is also a tradition for the court to appoint talented people. It is not necessary to blame these overseas visitors who do not understand the laws of the Ming Dynasty." Li Qingyang still subconsciously defended the officials of the Ming Dynasty, but he really did not have the confidence to say these words.As the current Jin Yiwei, he certainly knows a lot of secrets in the officialdom. It is very unlikely that overseas visitors like Haihan want to enter the bureaucratic system of Ming Dynasty without passing the imperial examination.

"If they are just a group of overseas visitors who come to Daming to make a living, then maybe there is no problem. But the difficulty lies in the fact that they are so capable, almost omnipotent and skilled in everything. Daming's officialdom... cannot support this group of people. People!" If He Qiang dared to say this in a different place, Li Qingyang could immediately arrest him and bring him back to the yamen for the crime of "recklessly discussing government affairs", but in Sanya, no one would care about this kind of thing.

Li Qingyang heard Haihan people discussing the situation of Ming Dynasty in public more than once. In the eyes of these people, the powerful Ming Empire does not seem to be a big object. Schneider even simply defined it as a "resource supply place and sales market"— —Although Li Qingyang didn't quite understand the specific meaning of this statement, it was obviously not a very good adjective.

As for the evaluation of Daming's officialdom, Li Qingyang heard Hao Wanqing mention it once.Hao Wanqing's words were very serious at the time, which left a deep impression on Li Qingyang: "...the Ming court relies on the current batch of officials, and the result is only one, and it will be over!"

Hao Wanqing didn't give any real evidence at the time, but just saying that made Li Qingyang feel extremely uneasy.You must know that the Haihan people's predictions for some major events in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom have always been 100% accurate, without any errors.When a high-ranking official like Hao Wanqing made such a serious judgment that "Da Ming is about to end", Li Qingyang thought that he didn't just say it in passing, but that the Haihan people really knew something.

For He Qiang's opinion, Li Qingyang can only respond with a non-commentary attitude.In this place, he also has no way to reveal his identity as Jinyiwei to play awe-inspiring, doing so is completely suicidal—as long as he reveals his official identity, he will lose the role of existence to Hai Han at that moment.

Li Qingyang also knew that He Qiang did not talk to him about such a topic unconsciously. In fact, such a conversation would happen almost every day or two, and in every conversation, there would always be something that touched Li Qingyang's heart. content, making his political stance increasingly unstable.Li Qingyang believes that these conversations are most likely deliberately arranged by the Ministry of Security. Although he considers himself a person with a firm heart and loyalty to Daming, he has already chosen to give in before. It's hard.

Li Qingyang was lost in thought when a clerk came in quickly from outside the store and reported: "Guard He, two policemen came outside and said that our team distributing medicines is blocking the way, let us collect them."

Li Qingyang came to his senses upon hearing the words, got up and said, "I'll take a look first."

Li Qingyang went outside the door, and saw two young men in black police uniforms standing at the front of the line, directing the long line to form a serpentine formation.Li Qingyang saw that these two people were unfamiliar, so he glanced at the pistols pinned to their waist belts, and he didn't dare to neglect and quickly went up to clarify his identity.

One of the dark-skinned policemen said, "Are you the person in charge of Fuji's activities? Did you report to the Hong Kong District Management Committee for this free medicine distribution activity?"

"Yes, yes, the procedures are all done!" Li Qingyang quickly took out the documents from his arms, spread them out and showed them to the policeman.He didn't know that he needed to report to Haihan's yamen when he held this event, and it was He Qiang who reminded him before rushing to complete the formalities.

The policeman saw that the document was indeed stamped with the big seal of the Victory Port Management Committee, and his face softened a little: "In the future, for this kind of activity, the length of the queue must be limited. Look at the queue at your door. The face is blocked!"

"It's because I didn't think carefully, so let the buddy guide the crowd!" Li Qingyang can only put this account on He Qiang's head now. If he hadn't been pulled in by him to drink tea and chat, what would happen if he stared here? .

He Qiang also came out while talking, but when he came out and saw these two young policemen, he smiled: "Fu Li, Xiaobao! I haven't seen you two young masters for a long time!"

"Guan He is here!" The policeman who had just talked with Li Qingyang grinned and replied, "I thought you had gone back to Guangzhou!"

"What's so good about Guangzhou, how can Sanya live comfortably!" He Qiang said with a smile, "When did you two come back? Why is Xiaobao also a policeman?"

Yu Xiaobao, who was wearing a police uniform, responded, "It's been a while since we came back. I didn't wear this suit voluntarily. It's just because I was arrested!"

It has been more than two months since Yu Xiaobao and Fu Li returned to Sanya to participate in the training class for young cadres after receiving the transfer order from the Executive Committee.During this period, they almost always conducted closed studies at the station on the Luhuitou Peninsula, and did not have the opportunity to take a stroll, so He Qiang has not seen them in the Shengli Port business district recently.Recently, because there are many public activities during the third anniversary celebration, a large number of military and police personnel are needed to maintain order and law and order. Therefore, all the young cadres in the training class have been seconded out to act as temporary workers.Although Yu Xiaobao's establishment is not in the police department, he was forcibly assigned the task of patrolling the business district with Fu Li.

When "Fu Ruifeng" first arrived in Shengli Port, He Qiang knew these two teenagers who were running around on bicycles, and often teased them with some small things brought from Guangzhou.But at that time, they were still ignorant teenagers who followed Ning Qi's buttocks. Unexpectedly, after more than two years, the two of them have already mixed up.

"Come, come, sit in the room for a while, drink tea, rest your feet, and then go out to patrol!" He Qiang took the other with each hand, and brought the two into the shop.The two did not refuse, one of them is a temporary part-time job, the other is a senior cadre, and no one will come to check their posts, and it doesn't hurt to be lazy for a while.

"Xiao Li, you come too!" He Qiang did not forget to bring Li Qingyang with him, and introduced Fu Li and Yu Xiaobao by the way: "Xiao Li, this is Yu Xiaobao and Fu Li, these two But the big celebrity in front of the heads of the executive committee. This is Li Qingyang, who manages the accounts in the store, so please get close to him....Xiao Li is also very familiar with Director Hao of the Security Department."

Yu Xiaobao and Fu Li knew what the security department did.Although Yu Xiaobao was not involved in security and intelligence affairs when he was stationed in Guangzhou, one of his playmates, Zhang Qianzhi, the youngest son of Zhang Tiangui, the chief technician of the shipyard, followed He Xi into the Ministry of Security. Seventeen, one masters the inside and one masters the outside, they can also be regarded as senior cadres.However, due to the special nature of the security department, Zhang Qianzhi is not in the list of the training class here.

As for Fu Li, there is no need to mention it. The police department he works in and the Ministry of Security have many overlaps in their work. In particular, both departments are involved in case investigation and transfer work, and most of them will be handled by Fu Li.Fu Li knew very well that the authority of the Security Department was far higher than that of the Police Department in some respects, and Director Hao of the Security Department was basically the top local supervisor.Although He Qiang's introduction was brief, both Fu Li and Yu Xiaobao immediately knew that this fair and polite accountant should also be a member of the security department.

"Didn't you ask Mr. Li where he was a high school student before?" After taking his seat, Fu Li asked straightforwardly.He had been with the Haihan people for a long time, so he could tell at a glance that Li Qingyang was not from the Haihan people, but a Ming person.However, in his memory, he didn't remember that there was such a number one person in the Ministry of Security.

Li Qingyang hesitated for a moment, but said honestly: "Before I stepped down, I worked for the imperial court!" It was the first time he got involved with the executive committee when he heard about He Qiang's introduction. It's over, and the two sides are familiar with each other for a long time. It seems that these two young policemen have a lot of background. If they lie in front of them, Li Qingyang thinks that the possibility of being exposed is very high.

He Qiang suddenly coughed dryly and said: "You guys are chatting, the old man goes to the door to see how much stock is still unfinished."

The three people present are all members of Haihan Gongmen, and He Qiang doesn't want to hear something that he shouldn't know.The purpose of him bringing Fu Li and Yu Xiaobao into the shop for tea is to let these two young people have a chat with Li Qingyang - this is one of the tasks given to him by the security department, to create more opportunities for Li Qingyang to get in touch with Fu Li and Yu Xiaobao, young naturalized locals with a firm stand, are obviously excellent candidates.

Hearing Li Qingyang's words, Yu Xiaobao and Fu Li exchanged glances, and they both had a clear mind.In the past three years, Haihan has indeed recruited many people who originally worked for Daming, including government servants, petty officials, police officers, college teachers, land and water soldiers, and even low-level officers.Most of these people got stable grassroots positions after entering the Haihan system, and were quickly assimilated by the surrounding environment, becoming one of the naturalized people.However, there are some departments that are very strict about the recruitment of personnel, such as the garrison directly under the executive committee, or the Haihan Security Department, which is responsible for security alarms.

Generally speaking, those who have worked in the Daming Gongmen will not be selected for the Ministry of Security, at most they can work in the Ministry of Justice.The Ministry of Security didn't particularly value the work experience of the candidates, but cared more about whether the candidates' attitudes were loyal enough to Haihan, and this threshold was enough to wipe out most of the people who had come here.Li Qingyang claimed that he used to work for the imperial court, but now he is in the establishment of the Ministry of Security. Basically, there is only one possibility - this person was working for the imperial court's intelligence department before he defected to him, and he has certain information in his hands. Some resources that the security department must pay attention to. Only in this way can he explain why he was hired by the security department.

And Fu Li immediately remembered a rumor half a year ago, and couldn't help asking: "Half a year ago, it was said that a group of people sent by the Gongmen were caught by our people in Guangzhou, and after they were sent to Sanya, there was no news. Now, does Mr. Li know about this?"

Li Qingyang took a deep breath to calm his mind, and then responded: "There are some of them."

"I see." Fu Li immediately confirmed Li Qingyang's identity.Half a year ago, he had heard from Ren Liang that the Ministry of Security had solved a major case in Guangzhou, and had dispatched members of the militia to arrest a group of Jinyiwei spies who were trying to sneak into Sanya to wreak havoc.At that time, the police department was also mobilized to set up checkpoints at two ports in Sanya to interrogate foreigners.

This incident has not been made public to the public. Even a special department like the Police Department only knows that this incident happened. As for what happened and what happened to the captured people, there is no further news at all.

Fu Li was also very curious about this matter at the time, and asked someone specifically to inquire about it, but later he was warned by Ren Liang, telling him not to inquire about the security department, that department is not as easy to deal with as it seems.Half a year later, Fu Li had gradually forgotten about this matter, but he never expected to meet the person involved in a shop in the business district.

Fu Li smiled a little unnaturally and said: "It's nothing, it must have been just a misunderstanding at the time. Since Mr. Li is now one of his own, we should have more contacts in the future!"

Li Qingyang felt that the word "one of my own people" was a bit forced. Although he is indeed under the jurisdiction of Haihan's security department, the security department also knows that he has a dual identity, not only serving Haihan, but also working for Daming Jin Yiwei works.However, it is inconvenient for him to explain the inside story to Fu Li, an outsider, and he can only smile awkwardly, not responding too much to Fu Li's comfort.
