Chapter 877 Interests, Opponents

If you give up, you will get something. He cannot swallow up all the benefits alone. If this military and technical room becomes his Luo Yao's talking point.

That’s not what you want to see from above.

This is also the decision Luo Yao made after these days of thinking and weighing. Mao Zongxiang being the director is not necessarily a bad thing.

It is impossible for him to focus mainly on the Military Technical Room. The Military Commission and the Attendant's Room are his first priority.

But he doesn't need it. He doesn't have any other messy part-time jobs, not counting social casualties. His main job is in the military technical room.

Mao's arrival did not affect his prestige and control in the military technical room.

If you insist on fighting, it may not be beneficial.

He was still young and anything was possible, not to mention that he was not interested in gaining power within the Kuomintang.

It’s all about work and belief.

Faith is not a high-profile thing, it is not illusory, it is real. When you see China, which is poor and weak, invaded by foreign powers and wantonly humiliated by the Japanese invaders, as a Chinese, you still feel If you can't stand up, live upright, and live freely in your own land, are you really indifferent?

To be honest, no one with a conscience can do this, either for themselves or for the next generation. Should they smash this old world and create a new one?

Can the corrupt and dictatorial National Government do it? Obviously not, who else could it be?

Luo Yao would rather die standing than live on his knees.

Huo Tian left with an unspeakable excitement. Being able to go further is a joy for anyone.

…

Luo Yao was worried about what to say when meeting He Yaozu, even though Lin Weiwen had already led him to meet the newly appointed Director He of the Attendance Room 1.

But he was still a little uncomfortable with this unsmiling new boss. After all, there was a new person, and it was hard to say whether the new boss would like the person his predecessor liked.

There are three things a new official should do when he takes office.

He was also not sure whether Director He would be angry at the Military Technical Room. Of course, the Attendant's Office was too busy in one area, so he might not be able to pay attention to the Military Technical Room.

There's nothing you can do about it, just try your best to adapt.

It was almost time. After lunch, Luo Yao asked Cai Xiaochun to drive directly to Shangqing Temple in the city.

At around two o'clock, Luo Yao arrived near Shangqing Temple, but he did not go in immediately and found a coffee shop nearby.

I ordered a cup of coffee, sat down and read the newspaper for a while, and didn't pay and leave until it was almost three o'clock.

"Deputy Director Luo is here."

The guards in the Attendance Room of Shangqing Temple naturally knew Luo Yao. He was also a low-key regular visitor. He usually had no airs and usually only brought an adjutant with him. Moreover, he was the most disciplined person.

Some of the people who came to Shangqing Temple were very angry.

"I'm here to see Director He. We made an appointment at 3:30 in the afternoon." Luo Yao explained his purpose to the receptionist in a polite manner.

Then he sat in the reception room and waited for the summons.

There were quite a few people waiting to see He Yaozu, and there were at least three people in front of him. However, Luo Yao didn't like to inquire blindly. If he met someone he knew, he would nod to greet him. If he didn't know him, he would just look at his eyes, his nose, his mind, and his mind. Things outside.

The people in front were called in one after another, and soon the person in front of him was also called in.

Luo Yao looked at his watch and saw that it was already past three-thirty.

The chief's time doesn't count. It's half past three. It would be nice to see you before four o'clock.

But you have to arrive at least a quarter of an hour early, otherwise, haha.

The position of director of the Attendant's Office is equivalent to that of the minister of study in the past. He is not a big official, but his power is top-notch.

This is definitely nepotism. You can't appoint someone who doesn't suit your needs. Wouldn't that make you uncomfortable?

The first office works here, and the second office has another place. The imperial pen follows the old man and is usually not seen.

There's no rush, as long as I can see people today, Luo Yao is also going to spend his time here today.

As for what was talked about in it, Luo Yao wanted to hear it, so naturally he could hear it, and he also used his special shorthand ability to write it down in his mind, and he would sort it out after he got back.

Of course, he can't come here every day to listen.

When a new official takes office, he will naturally want to meet with the heads of the departments below to establish his authority. This is natural.

Individual practices are different, but they are similar.

It was not his turn to report to the military technical room. That was the responsibility of the director. Now Wen Yuqing suddenly abandoned this task and resigned.

It may be his turn to be criticized, or it may be Mao Zongxiang...

The conversation inside was over. Without looking, you could see that the man who was calm and composed in front of him just now had a pale face and his back was soaked.

Who can sit in the position of director of the attendant's room, who is incompetent? Even if it is incompetent, it is relative. Compared with ordinary people, it cannot be said to be "incompetent".

"Deputy Director Luo, Director He, please come in." He Yaozu's adjutant came over and politely invited him in.

Luo Yao nodded, stood up, and passed by the person just now, catching a hint of "schadenfreude" in the other person's eyes from the corner of his eye.

"Your Majesty."

Luo Yao was considered a junior, so when he saw He Yaozu, he naturally addressed him as a junior. He abided by the rules of the Kuomintang officialdom.

He Yaozu is already in his early fifties, but he is very energetic. He wears a pair of round reading glasses and has a few white hairs on his temples.

"Last time we met, Brother Wei Wen was here. There are some things we can't talk about in depth. Sit down and talk." He Yaozu looked up at him while immersed in his work, and raised his hand to greet him.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Luo Yao sat down on the chair in front of him, straightened his back, and said in front of him, "Your Excellency, I am here today to report to you."

"Isn't it Dr. Wen who reports to me about the situation in the military technical room?" He Yaozu frowned slightly. He was a little unhappy. His subordinates overstepped their authority to report. This is not a good thing, especially young people who do not understand the rules.

"No, sir, you misunderstood. I'm not here to report on the situation in the military technical room, but it still counts. How can I tell you? You will understand after reading this letter." Luo Yao immediately understood the change in He Yaozu's face and immediately took out his hand. After taking out the letter that Wen Yuqing asked Wang Weijun to give to him, he stood up and handed it to He Yaozu solemnly.

He Yaozu was stunned. This kind of situation was rare. Could it be that there was a bribe in this envelope?

It shouldn’t be, are young people so wild?

He Yaozu didn't answer.

Luo Yao was also stunned, and then an idea flashed in his mind, and he realized: "Your Excellency, this is a letter written by Dr. Wen to the humble position."

He Yaozu suddenly realized that he might have misunderstood. If this was really a misunderstanding, it would be a joke, so he took it immediately.

The envelope was opened and he had obviously read it. Since Luo Yao asked him to read it, there would be no problem if he read it.

After taking it out and reading the contents of the letter, He Yaozu's expression changed.

"When was the letter given to you?"

"This morning, just before I called you, Wang Weijun, the deputy chief secretary of the Military Technical Office Secretariat, handed it to me." Luo Yao didn't hide it.

"Why do you hand it over after everyone has left?"

"The letter was sealed when it was given to me. We only found out after reading the letter that Dr. Wen got on the flight to Hong Kong yesterday. At this moment, it is too late." Of course Luo Yao had to speak for Wang Weijun, otherwise a If he fails to report what he knows, Wang Weijun will be in trouble.

"What does Wen Yuqing want to do at this time?" Just a few days after taking office, something like this happened below.

This made him, the director of the Attendance Room No. 1, very passive. People who didn't know the truth thought that Wen Yuqing left the military technical room without saying goodbye because of him.

"Dear Sir, Dr. Wen left with his crown hanging. In fact, he was wronged and had nothing to say, so he did it as a last resort." Luo Yaodao.

"What wrong has he suffered to warrant this?"

"Recently, there are always people spreading rumors behind the scenes, saying that Dr. Wen traded the deciphered Japanese diplomatic secrets with the British during his tenure at the secret inspection agency, betraying the interests of the party and the country. There were even rumors that he was going to be brought to justice, and there were rumors that he was involved in the transaction. The British agent had already returned to China. He could not defend himself or explain to the outside world. He did fall short in some aspects, so he was admitted to the hospital out of anger..." Luo Yao explained.

"Is there such a thing?" He Yaozu frowned slightly. Not long after he returned to China, he had just handed over to Lin Weiwen, and he really didn't understand many things.

"This matter is not a secret. Your Excellency will find out if you make a little inquiry." Luo Yao said.

"Did Dr. Wen offend anyone? Who wants to kill him?"

"Your Majesty, it's hard to say that I have a low position, because Dr. Wen was hospitalized and I was in charge of the work of the military technical room. I have a vested interest. If it is said that I am spreading rumors behind my back, some people will believe it." Luo Yao said, "Because I There is no way to defend myself.”

"Are you?"

"Bizhang is in the military technical room, and he and Dr. Wen each take care of things. He is in charge of technology, and Bizhang is in charge of administration. We cooperate well with each other. Besides, Bizhang is now focusing on the training class. At this time, Bizhang has What is the reason to squeeze out Dr. Wen? Furthermore, if Dr. Wen is squeezed out, he can sit in that position with a low-level position? I don’t think there is a high chance. Besides, there is a deputy director of the Military Technology Office. Deputy Director Mao’s qualifications and prestige are both If you are above me, how can I compete?" Luo Yao said.

"I'm afraid this may not be what you have in mind?"

"Your Excellency is right. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Of course I want to sit in this position. In terms of ability, I should ask myself and I don't have to be inferior to anyone else. In a fair competition, I am confident that I can beat Deputy Director Mao. However, military skills The position of office director is not just based on ability, this humble position also comes with self-awareness." Luo Yao said neither humble nor arrogant, since He Yaozu is fair and not partial, then he will simply tell the truth.

"Young man, you really dare to say that."

"Dear Sir, whether you tell the truth or lie under your humble position, in the end it will be the same. You have your own judgment in your heart and will not be swayed by your humble position."

"What a sharp tongue. No wonder I just arrived in the attendant's room. Among the people talking here, your name has the highest chance of appearing." He Yaozu said, "The great victory at Yinlong Mountain, the deciphering of Japanese military communication messages during the Battle of Xiangcheng, and the great success of Liuzhou bombing……"

Listening to He Yaozu recounting his achievements one by one, Luo Yao felt like a light on his back.

The new boss actually conducted such a detailed investigation on himself and found out everything he had done.

"This does not include the merits you have made in the past. Many of them are still lying in the military secret archives and have not yet been declassified, right?"

"The Medal of Yunhui and the Medal of Baoding. It's already amazing if an ordinary person can get one of them. You've got two of them. To be honest, I'm a little envious of you." He Yaozu said.

"Your Excellency, I got these two medals by luck. Compared with your achievements over the past decades, they are nothing to mention." Luo Yao said with a sigh of shame.

"The military technical room cannot be without an owner for a day. Although you are responsible for it now, the position of director must be determined as soon as possible. I will report it to the committee. As for the committee making such a choice, I cannot guarantee it. " He Yaozu said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."

"Keep this letter with me for now, and I will return it to you after I report it to the Chairman." He Yaozu said.
