Warlords: Rising from the Northwest Border and Sweeping Across the Powers

Secretary Yu secretly glared at the young man, then immediately changed the subject and said, "Captain Su, County Magistrate Ma has already prepared a banquet. We are going to the banquet, so you should settle down first."

Su Zhengyang did not investigate further and instructed Liu Kangding: "Brother Liu, take your men to unload the luggage and supplies from the truck outside and put the supplies in the warehouse."

"Find a few people to help move the things, and point out the location of the warehouse along the way."

The young man suddenly realized something and called out to the others, "Hurry up and help Captain Su move the things. Don't just stand there."

A group of people worked for two hours before they successfully moved the supplies from the truck to the security team's warehouse.

During this period, Su Zhengyang found a relatively clean room, moved his luggage in, and settled down.

"Mr. Su, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you. The next batch of supplies will be delivered to you soon."

After shaking hands with Su Zhengyang, Cruise quickly got on the passenger seat of the truck, started the truck, and left Sanjiang County.

Not far away, Secretary Yu looked at Su Zhengyang thoughtfully, then stared at the truck going away in a daze.

After arranging everything, Su Zhengyang whispered in Liu Kangding's ear: "Brother Liu, you come with me to the banquet. Arrange your brothers to keep an eye on the supplies in the warehouse. No one is allowed to approach."

Liu Gangding nodded, turned around and went to explain Su Zhengyang's orders.

Under the guidance of Secretary Yu, Su Zhengyang and Liu Gangding walked through several streets and arrived at Hongyun Restaurant near the county government office.

Hongyun Restaurant has three floors, and the decoration and furnishings inside are extremely elegant. Ma Jiawei was waiting at the door, and when he saw Su Zhengyang, he quickly came over to greet him.

"Captain Su, you have come from afar. I have prepared some wine today so that we can drink together. Please follow me."

Several people came to a large private room of 20 square meters on the third floor. More than 20 delicious dishes were already placed on the huge round table.

What surprised Su Zhengyang was that the round table was already full of people. Judging from their clothes, they were obviously very important people in the local area.

"Come, come, Captain Su, please take a seat!" Ma Jiawei enthusiastically asked Su Zhengyang to sit in the main seat, and then introduced him to the people present: "This is our Sanjiang County's new security team leader, Su Zhengyang."

Everyone present stood up hurriedly and greeted Su Zhengyang enthusiastically.

There was only a young man in a brocade robe, sitting on a chair with disdain, his body relaxed and lazy, and he had no intention of greeting Su Zhengyang.

Ma Jiawei pointed to the middle-aged man in black police uniform sitting on his left and introduced him, "This is Director Wu from our Sanjiang County Police Department."

"This is our local wealthy businessman, Mr. Guo. He has opened five or six shops in the county town. His business is not small."

After introducing them, Ma Jiawei came to the young man who was sitting on a chair and playing with his fingers out of boredom, and said humbly, "This is an important figure in our Sanjiang County, the second young master of the Du family, Du Xiaofeng. The Du family is the richest family in our Sanjiang County. The previous county magistrate was the old man of the Du family. Director Wu of the police station is also the son-in-law of the old man Du."

The young man sneered impatiently, "I thought he was some big shot, but he's just a small security chief. Is it necessary for me to wait for him here for half an hour?"

After the young man finished speaking, he stood up, shook hands with Su Zhengyang very perfunctorily, and said to the crowd: "I still have to go to Yucui Tower to watch a play, so I won't have dinner with you, Captain Su, right? Let's get together again next time we have a chance."

Looking at the young man's receding back, Su Zhengyang's expression did not change at all.

Ma Jiawei explained in his ear: "Captain Su, the Du family is the local tyrant of this piece of land. Young Master Du has always had this kind of temper. I will apologize to you on his behalf."

Su Zhengyang waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I'm new here and I'll need your care in the future. Let me toast to you all."

After Du Xiaofeng left, the atmosphere at the banquet began to liven up. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the square-faced Director Wu said to Su Zhengyang, "Our Sanjiang County is just a small place in the northwest, but small places have their own rules. Captain Su is from a big family, so he must have come here to gain some wealth. As long as you work here steadily for a few years, I guarantee that when you leave, your pockets will be bulging."

As Chief Wu spoke, he turned to the captain of the police station beside him and said, "Go and bring up the gift I prepared for Captain Su."

The captain nodded, turned and left. A moment later, he brought up a wooden box the size of a human head and placed it on the table in front of Su Zhengyang.

Director Wu stretched out his hand and said, "Captain Su, open it and take a look at this gift. Are you satisfied with it?"

Su Zhengyang opened the box and saw neatly arranged piles of dollars inside, which should be more than a thousand in total.

Su Zhengyang calmly closed the box and said to Director Wu, "I like this gift very much."

Seeing Su Zhengyang giving him such respect, Director Wu was overjoyed and raised his glass again and said, "Captain Su, I toast you. In the future, we will work together to maintain the public security of Sanjiang County."

Su Zhengyang appeared calm on the surface, with a professional fake smile on his face, drinking enthusiastically with a bunch of old foxes. But actually he had begun to sneer in his heart. When I find out the situation in Sanjiang County, I may not be able to live in peace with you like this by then.

After the banquet, County Magistrate Ma personally sent someone to send Su Zhengyang and Liu Kangding back. Director Wu, who was even drunk, threatened to give Su Zhengyang a house because the environment of the security team’s base was too bad.

In fact, if you think about the situation at today's banquet, you can find that the status of the Du family in Sanjiang County should be extremely high. Even County Magistrate Ma, who is the highest administrative officer, has a servile attitude in front of a second-generation ancestor of the Du family.

Director Wu's words were just a reminder to Su Zhengyang that as long as he behaved himself and didn't break the rules, he would definitely get a lot of benefits if he stayed here for a few years. But if he broke the rules here, he would probably be retaliated and targeted. The threat was self-evident.

The first thing Su Zhengyang did when he returned to the security group's base was to instruct Liu Kangding, "Tell the brothers to count the supplies in the warehouse. Everyone should have one rifle and pistol, and there should be enough bullets."

Liu Gangding was a martial arts fanatic to begin with. When he heard that there was a new gun, he immediately ignored everything else and quickly asked his men to start counting the supplies.
