Let them show their loyalty!

Minister Zhang’s name is Zhang Jian. He is a middle-aged man in his 30s with a long face, hooked nose, and a bit thin and gloomy.

Perhaps because he has been doing spy and counter-espionage work for a long time, his expression has always been cold, giving people a feeling that he is difficult to approach.

In fact, communicating with him will find that he is indeed very difficult to approach.

Just like Qiu Tu was chatting with Cai Peiyuan "hotly" just now, but as soon as he came, the whole atmosphere became cold.

After greeting Cai Peiyuan, Zhang Jian nodded to Qiu Tu and said, "Minister Qiu."

Qiu Tu is the youngest among the middle and senior management of the Exploration Bureau, only in his early twenties.

So it is not an exaggeration to be called "Minister Qiu".

But generally speaking, only close people or Qiu Tu's boss are more appropriate to be called like this.

As a peer, Zhang Jian's calling this is somewhat contemptuous.

But Qiu Tu doesn't care.

He is not yet at the point where he can get along with everyone. So just cling to Cai Peiyuan's thigh and wait and see what happens.

So, he smiled and nodded to Zhang Jian, and continued to drink tea with his head down.

He had said everything he could to Cai Peiyuan, and had brainwashed Cai Peiyuan. The rest depended on how much Cai Peiyuan listened to.

However, Qiu Tu was still confident in his "brainwashing" skills: after all, what he said just now was the truth, and he was sincerely analyzing for Cai Peiyuan.

Although he "slightly" gained some personal gain for himself, most of it was a real conspiracy.

As long as Cai Peiyuan didn't make a fool of himself for Jia Shu and had to go against him, then his plan today would most likely succeed.

At the same time.

There were also many people in the Exploration Bureau who were paying attention to this small meeting.

Yesterday, Qiu Tu made a beautiful comeback and stood out from the candidates like a dark horse!

It itself has shocked everyone.

But this also made the Exploration Bureau completely see the "contradiction" between him and Yan Chen.

Yan Chen is the real king of the Investigation Bureau. If you offend Yan Chen, it is equivalent to offending all the middle and senior management of the Investigation Bureau.

Therefore, many people are waiting to see Qiu Tu's good show.

They want to see what Qiu Tu can do in this situation. Will he become a deputy minister in name only? Will he be completely sidelined by other deputy ministers.

On the 12th floor of the Investigation Bureau, the office of the deputy director of operations.

Lai Shun was drinking tea and signing documents there.

As a result, at this moment. Suddenly, "dong dong dong", his office door was knocked.

Lai Shun shouted without raising his head, "Come in."

Hearing Lai Shun's voice, his office door was opened from the outside.

Lai Shun looked up and found that it was his secretary.

As if he knew what his secretary was going to report, he said directly without listening to the secretary's report, "Did Lao Zhang go in?"

Lai Shun's secretary walked to the desk, stood with his hands down, and said respectfully, "Yes, Director. Minister Zhang just entered the small conference room."

"Minister Cai's secretary has closed the door of the conference room now. The meeting should have officially started inside."

Lai Shun nodded after hearing this. This time, he finally didn't judge as easily as last time, but said casually, "Okay, I know. Keep paying attention."

"Yes!" Lai Shun's secretary nodded in response, then turned and left the office.

Exploration Bureau 12th Floor, Office of Deputy Director of Management.

Deputy Director of Management Yu Zhengyi is chatting with Organization Department Minister Shi Youxin there.

Maybe because they both came from military academies and worked as teachers. Yu Zhengyi looks a bit bookish.

He has a square face, wears black-framed glasses, and has gray hair. He looks more like a scholar than a politician.

"Old Shi, what do you think of Qiu Tu?"

Hearing his question, Shi Youxin said with a smile, "It's hard to say, I feel it's a bit interesting."

"But how much quality it has depends on today's small meeting."

"But. I don't like him very much. I always feel that he is a bit too slick. He says more nice things than anyone else, but he hides too many things in his heart. Well, he is more like a liar than a politician."

"Hehe." Yu Zhengyi smiled and adjusted his black-framed glasses, then blew the tea on his lips, "The situation that was originally stagnant suddenly got disrupted by an interesting chess piece."

"Catch up with the establishment of Moonlight Lake and Dongye Prefecture. It feels like it's getting more and more interesting."

At this time, when the whole agency was paying attention to this small meeting of the ministers of the Political Department, and they were not optimistic about Qiu Tu.

At this time, in the small conference room, the whole meeting was developing in a one-sided form.

At the beginning of the meeting, Cai Peiyuan exchanged a few pleasantries, and then congratulated Qiu Tu on his joining on behalf of several ministers of the Political Department.

Immediately afterwards, Cai Peiyuan brought up the topic of Qiu Tu's division of labor.

This topic obviously did not attract the attention of the "only villain" Zhang Jian.

After all, everyone in the Investigation Bureau now knows that Qiu Tu has both brought down Jia Shu and displeased Yan Chen.

As for the major tasks of the Political Department, except for the espionage and counter-espionage tasks in Zhang Jian's hands, all other tasks are in Cai Peiyuan's hands.

So Zhang Jian naturally thought that as a die-hard fan of Jia Shu and Yan Chen, and holding other divisions of labor, Cai Peiyuan would definitely suppress Qiu Tu and only assign Qiu Tu a supervisory job.

So, in order to help Cai Peiyuan, he even took the initiative to take over the topic, and then proposed to assign only the "supervision" part of the work to Qiu Tu, on the grounds that Qiu Tu had little experience after all.

As a result, who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, he was opposed by Cai Peiyuan.

At that time, Cai Peiyuan coughed and said, "Old Zhang, this is a bit inappropriate." "Minister Qiu is young, but it is precisely because of his young age that he needs to exercise more. He needs to take on more work for the department."

"We old guys don't have to work so hard!"

As soon as Cai Peiyuan finished speaking, Zhang Jian was stunned.

He didn't quite understand what Cai Peiyuan was thinking. But anyway, it was not his power, so he just waited and watched.

So with his abstention, Cai Peiyuan handed over all three tasks of supervision, interrogation and intelligence to Qiu Tu.

Such a result, not to mention Zhang Jian was a little confused, even Qiu Tu was a little confused.

However, Qiu Tu guessed Cai Peiyuan's idea immediately.

Cai Peiyuan's idea is very simple: if you want to protect yourself, then protect yourself to the end; if you want to win over Qiu Tu, then just win him over to the end!

He really can't figure out Zhang Jian's trump card now, and he is not sure who will become the Minister of the Political Department.

So, in order to avoid any accidents. Simply hand over all the work to Qiu Tu.

This has three advantages.

1. He only has the "Action Department" division of labor in his hands. Even if Zhang Jian really becomes the Minister, he can't do anything to him.

2. He gave Qiu Tu so many divisions of labor, Qiu Tu must be grateful for his kindness and stand on his side completely.

And after Zhang Jian becomes the Minister, if he wants to take back the power, he must cut it from Qiu Tu. At that time, even if there is no conflict between the two, there will be conflicts.

He can completely sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

3. And the most important thing. If he only gave Qiu Tu the division of [Intelligence] and [Supervision]. So when he became the minister, it was not easy to find an excuse to turn his back on Qiu Tu and take back power from him - as the deputy minister, it was reasonable for Qiu Tu to control two divisions of labor.

Now, he gave all three divisions of labor to Qiu Tu, and Qiu Tu's power was obviously too great. So when he was promoted to the minister, he had a legitimate reason to take back power.

Moreover, the reason why Cai Peiyuan was not afraid of Qiu Tu's tail being too big after giving so many divisions of labor to Qiu Tu was because he was still the acting minister.

All the work of the deputy ministers had to be reported to him and discussed with him. In addition, with his qualifications and connections in the political department, he could sideline Qiu Tu in a minute.

It can be said that in just a few minutes, Cai Peiyuan not only listened to Qiu Tu's "suggestions", but also made a very appropriate response.

Qiu Tu saw through Cai Peiyuan's idea, but it was useless.

This was an open conspiracy.

Such a huge benefit was placed in front of Qiu Tu, and Qiu Tu would be a fool not to take it.

So, when Cai Peiyuan proposed this plan, Qiu Tu was the first to raise his hand in favor.

Although Zhang Jian felt that Cai Peiyuan had a problem with his brain, it had nothing to do with him, so he was the second to raise his hand to express his approval.

As for Cai Peiyuan, the proposer of this plan, of course, there is no need to say anything. He must have voted in favor.

So a meeting that would have seemed bloody and full of verbal battles to the outside world ended in such a strange calm.

When the meeting was over, Zhang Jian looked at Cai Peiyuan several times as if he was looking at a fool, and then left the meeting room with a cold face.

After he left, Qiu Tu smiled and extended his hand to Cai Peiyuan, "Thank you for your support, Minister Cai."

After that, he added, "But Minister Cai, don't worry. I know that I am temporarily keeping these businesses for you."

"You can take them away anytime you need them. I promise I won't have any objections!"

Qiu Tu's words sounded very nice, but Cai Peiyuan didn't believe them at all

However, he still smiled and smoothed the wrinkles on Qiu Tu's shoulders, and then said politely, "Minister Qiu is joking. Since I have handed these businesses to you, it means I trust you."

"Relax and do your best."

"In the future, we will visit each other more and communicate more."

Qiu Tu smiled and agreed. Then he and Cai Peiyuan left the meeting room with laughter

Soon, the results of this meeting spread rapidly throughout the Exploration Agency.

Whether it was Lai Shun, Yu Zhengyi, or Shi Youxin, they were almost shocked when they learned of the results.

These senior executives behaved like this, let alone other ordinary agents.

The ordinary agents of the Investigation Bureau were waiting to see Qiu Tu's show, wanting to see how Qiu Tu was sidelined.

As a result, wow! The acting minister was "sidelined"?

And he was sidelined voluntarily?

Counting the three divisions of labor that Qiu Tu now controls, he can almost compete with Cai Peiyuan and Zhang Jian. He can be said to be a real deputy minister with real power.

However, if I remember correctly, Cai Peiyuan was not familiar with Qiu Tu before, and because he was a confidant of Yan Chen and Jia Shu, he had a grudge against Qiu Tu, right?

In the end, he was taken down by Qiu Tu?

What kind of charm or special ability does Qiu Tu have to brainwash a deputy minister like this?

Then think of the people who were betrayed by Qiu Tu along the way but also helped him: Secretary Bai, Yan Chen, Jia Shu.

And now, Cai Peiyuan dares to believe him?

For a moment, everyone was a little surprised: Is Qiu Tu the Lu Bu of the Political Department, or the Succubus of the Investigation Department?

Of course, everyone in the entire department was shocked by Qiu Tu's brainwashing ability and doubted Qiu Tu.

At this time, on the second floor of the Investigation Department.

The temporary office of the 8.19 Pharmacy Investigation Team has become a sea of ​​joy.

As the subordinates who have worked hard with Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu has truly mastered the real power, and they are the happiest.

Because this means that their good days are coming!

Among all people, Cao Dabiao is the most excited.

He was promoted to deputy section chief by Qiu Tu before, but he has not been assigned any work until now.

Now that Qiu Tu has so many divisions of labor, he can make room for him even if he has to.

As for other subordinates, such as Song Qing, Ding Xiaoliu, and Zhu Huoyan, they are all similar.

The higher the level of the superiors they follow, the more powerful they are, and the better their lives will obviously be, and the wider the channels for promotion will be. So they are also shouting excitedly.

The only person who is totally out of tune with the office's bustle is probably Tan Huimin, an outsider.
