"Brother Zhong, what are you looking at?"

Outside the police booth at No. 3 Xianyi Avenue, Pan Xinggui looked at the U.S. Embassy with confusion. He took a few glances. Fan Qingzhong, a new boss transferred from the embankment, had already frowned and looked at it for nearly ten minutes, and had even walked over and walked around.

Although the emperor sold the power of the Saigon police to Brother Qi, there were many people who were dissatisfied with it. For example, the disobedient director of the Second County Police Department dared to lie to him. If he didn't do anything, who would take Pingchuan and Brother Qi seriously if he didn't do it?

Knowing people and not the heart, Fan Qingzhong didn't believe this slick subordinate from the bottom of his heart, and said absent-mindedly: "It's nothing, don't be stupid, command the traffic. I'll go to the headquarters and come back later."

A gangster who was robbing the house and robbed the house was really considered a police officer. Pan Xinggui cursed inwardly and saluted with a baton, "Yes!"

The intention of being on guard against others is that what I saw just now is too strange. The more Fan Qingzhong thought about it, the more he made sense. He didn't dare to delay for a moment. He stepped on the motorcycle and honked his horn all the way to the embankment headquarters.

Ruan Shan just got the money back from the Great World Casino and was paying the bill in the account.

The second-in-command figure of Pingchuan School who was supposed to be in the city, Saigon Police Director Lai Wencai was talking to Brother Qi with the Public Security Director Lai Wencan. The three big guys were sitting in the lobby. Fan Qingzhong didn't dare to move forward and could only wait anxiously at the door.

There is news from France that Diem is really coming back this time and has American support.

There was no room for two tigers in a mountain. Li Wenyuan was upset. Seeing him sneaking and looking inside, he asked unhappily: "A Zhong, don't be on duty in the city, why are you going back to do it?"

With his subordinates not having a face, Li Wencai was very embarrassed and scolded him sternly: "I didn't hear Brother Qi's question, come in!"

"Seventh...Brother Qi, Brother Cai, Brother Can, I...I want to report something to Brother Shan."

"What's up?"

Brother Qi is not that easy to fool, and maybe he will be thrown into the backyard cage to feed the tiger. Fan Qingzhong replied uneasy: "Brother Qi, I just saw Li Guanyun's son with the Americans, and they went to the embassy."

Li Wenyuan was confused and asked with confusion: "Li Guanyun's son?"

"Last time he didn't take Brother Qi seriously, and he dared to lead people to beat Aji and the others, and he was very cruel. Brother Shan became angry and took his brothers to catch him back and teach him a lesson. Later, the Chaozhou Gang leader came forward to say good things and asked his family to redeem the people."

Teaching a lesson to a boy who is not very good at extorting some money from his family is really no big deal for the Pingchuan Sect. In fact, the brothers rely on this to make a living. However, the people tied up are quite special. He is not only rich, but also has some power in Saigon.

Li Wenyuan was not worried about offending Li Guanyun at all, but asked coldly: "Where is the money?"

"I've handed over... I've handed over... I've handed over the rules set by Brother Qi, who dares not to obey?"

"Since you've handed over the account, what are you afraid of?"

Fan Qingzhong wiped his sweat and said carefully: "Li Guanyun ran away, went to France, and ran with his wife and daughter. In addition, I heard that his rice factory was closed and the bank was withdrawing shares. Even the guy who often transported private goods was missing."

Li Wenyuan suddenly reacted and shook his legs and said to himself, "He wants to take revenge?"

"I feel that, otherwise their family won't leave."

People and businesses need to give him some face on the embankment, after all, he has to pay taxes to Pingchuan.

If someone runs away, business stops doing, and taxes are not available, why should he give him face to Li Guanyun? What's more, his son can now have a pair of pants with Americans and will be able to wear Ng Diem in the future.

Li Wenyuan’s logic is that danger must be eliminated in the early stages. It doesn’t matter whether the Li family wants to take revenge or not. Just killing someone, Saigon dies every day, and he doesn’t care about one more.

However, Li Guanyun is so rich, it would be a pity to just kill his son like this.

Li Wenyuan weighed the pros and said expressionlessly: "Acan, arrange for a few brothers to catch him back. If you can teach a lesson for the first time, you can teach a lesson for the second time, but it will not be so easy to get out this time."

Just tied up a ticket, it's really nothing.

Lai Wencan responded and asked inferences again: "Brother Qi, should he move other businesses?"

"Since Li Guanyun is determined to leave, he will definitely not leave money in the account. What's the use of catching those guys? Don't move for the time being."

Lai Wencai agreed, "Brother Qi is right. As long as his son is in our hands, how much does it cost?"

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."

………

At the same time, Lee Weimin was in the garden house by the Saigon River, entertaining the famous anti-rebellion expert Colonel Lansdale.

He is thirty-five or six years old, with a burly figure, a distinctive outline, handsome appearance, and can be a movie star. He is also humorous and funny, and can talk to anyone, and he has been laughing constantly since he entered the door.

He is indeed a CIA official, but his official identity in Saigon is not a spy, but an assistant Air Force officer at the U.S. Embassy in Vietnam with diplomatic immunity.

He enjoyed the coffee of the Li family, leaning half on the sofa, watching the silent movie, and said sarcastically: "From an artistic point of view, this movie has no taste. From the perspective of propaganda and bewitching, it is necessary to admit that the well-made and impeccable commercials are undoubtedly in the rural northern areas where news is blocked."

Li Weimin hugged his arms and added with a smile: "They can also greatly satisfy the curiosity of those farmers in this way, because as far as I know, many farmers in remote areas have never watched a movie or taken photos in their entire lives."

“They know what farmers need without a doubt.”

Professor Sanderson was inspired to take out his notebook and while getting close to the projected light column to make records, he said deeply: "We can give as much as they can, even more."

Li Weimin smiled without saying a word while holding a coffee cup. Lansdale signaled the embassy projectionist to turn off the projector, and smiled meaningfully: "Professor, I think farmers need more land than movies."

It is very well-informed to be able to sit here. Professor Sanderson obviously knew the progress of the negotiations in Geneva. He put down his pen and pondered: "Gentlemen, this means that the South will also carry out land reform. But it must be moderate, such as adopting the government's redemption method."

Before coming, the Secretary of State made it very clear in the telegram, asking him to come to Vietnam to do the same thing in the Philippines.

More importantly, the current CIA is not the previous Strategic Intelligence Agency.

Most positions are almost all occupied by Ivy League graduates. "Old seniors" like him who are formerly from advertising companies, they must do more beautifully if they want to be respected as they deserve, otherwise it will be difficult to convince those young boys who are above the top.

Lansdale is ambitious and wants to do something big.

But no matter which country you are in or what you want to do, it cannot be separated from the support of the local top officials. Otherwise, no matter how good the opinions are, they will not be adopted, and they will not be implemented.

He is an adviser to Philippine President Magsesse and cooperates with Magsesse very well. Now, he really wants to become an adviser to Ng Diem and really wants to gain the same trust and even friendship that the Philippine president has in his future Prime Minister of Vietnam.

Ambassador Heath is not optimistic about Ng Diem. In fact, no one in the embassy is optimistic about Ng Diem. In addition to his brothers, the young man who had just gone around the north was the one who had just gone around the north.

Li Weimin wanted to have a good relationship with him, but he also wanted to have a good relationship with Li Weimin. He stared at his eyes and asked with a smile: "Mr. Li, what do you think?"

"Col. What are you referring to?"

“Land Reform.”

Li Weimin pretended to be pondered for a moment, put down his cup and said, "Frankly speaking, I don't understand politics very much, but I think that governing a country and managing a company should not be much different. No matter what plan to implement or what strategy to implement, a strong president and a management team that can assist the president in organizing and implementing it."

How could Lansdale not hear what he meant, and smiled tacitly: "A powerful president and an executive team are undoubtedly a prerequisite for the implementation of land reform."

Professor Sanderson is not a tourist in Saigon. What he has seen and heard these days makes him very pessimistic and he can't help but shake his head and said, "It's easy to say, it's very difficult to do, the situation is too chaotic. You can imagine what kind of difficulties the Prime Minister will face next."

They were pawns sent by Diem's ​​American supporters, not those bureaucrats in the embassy who were looking forward to the forefront, but in a sense they were all in the same group.

Lansdale stopped going around the circle and smiled bluntly: "Gentlemen, aren't we there? We can help him."

Anyway, he will sooner or later become a guest of honor for Diem. If he does not do anything, he will be useless. Li Weimin pretended to weigh the pros and cons, and stood up and said, "Col. If you are willing, if you have time, I want to introduce you to a few friends. I believe they will be very happy to know you."

Without asking, we know that it was Wu Tingchu, Wu Tingjin, Wu Tingjiang and Wu Tinglian. The ambassador did not like others, and even did not allow official personnel to contact them. And running over rashly not only caused a loss of identity, but also did not necessarily believe it.

Naturally, Lansdale would not refuse. In fact, this is his real purpose in watching the movie. He raised his cup and smiled: "Mr. Li's friend is my friend. Of course he is willing, and of course he has time."
