"Zhang Xiaolin is a man of ruthlessness and refusal to recognize his relatives. He is a hero of the world, but his weaknesses are also very obvious. He is irritable, short-sighted, mean and polite." Yan Lei said.

"Is this your impression?" Lu Xiyan asked.

"No, I don't know him, nor have I contacted him. These are just what I heard from the 'old military advisor'." Yan Lei shook his head and explained.

"I have heard a lot of legends about this person. Back then, Boss Huang and Boss Du were in the French Concession. During the day, the French Concession was under the jurisdiction of the Public and Directors Bureau. At night, it was the world of the three of them. After the Japanese captured Shanghai, Boss Huang hid and became a residence hall. Boss Du avoided disaster to Hong Kong. He was also actively fighting against Japan. He was a man. Only Zhang Xiaolin was unwilling to be lonely. He colluded with the Japanese, worked hard for the Japanese, and became a traitor. It was really unforgivable to be punished!" Lu Xiyan of course knew who Zhang Xiaolin was.

One of the three tycoons of the Qing Gang in the past, now he has become a Japanese lackey. He also created a "New Asia Peace Promotion Association" and proclaimed himself the president, so he purchased military supplies for the Japanese, making a fortune in the national crisis.

Such people who forget their ancestors are simply inferior to pigs and dogs.

"You go with me for tomorrow's by-election meeting of Dong Hua." Lu Xiyan said, "It's time for you to see it, and I'm afraid that the opportunity to deal with these people in the future will be inevitable."

"Yes, sir."

"Go and rest early, you've been tired for a day."

...

Lu Xiyan returned to her room, but found that Meng Fanxing, who had drunk sober soup, was not on the bed. He thought to himself, this woman is so drunk, where else can she go?

When I came downstairs, I happened to meet Meng Hao coming out of the bathroom: "Haozi, do you see your sister?"

"My sister, it's in Xiaorui's room." Meng Hao slapped Hache and pointed his hand.

"I understand. I haven't been here for this period. Did you not cause any trouble? "Let's ask casually.

"Brother-in-law, I've become a troublemaker in your heart?"

"It's good that I haven't caused trouble. I'll go find your sister." Lu Xiyan waved his hand.

In Lu Xiaorui's room, Meng Fanxing was wearing pajamas, sitting by the bed, watching the child fall asleep.

"Shh, don't talk." Seeing Lu Xiyan coming in, Meng Fanxing turned his head and put his right index finger in the middle of his lips, signaling him not to make a sound.

The child was already asleep, making a slight breathing sound, and it was very peaceful.

The couple quietly watched the child for about ten minutes. Meng Fanxing then stood up and asked Lu Xiyan to take him out together.

Go upstairs and back to the bedroom.

"Xiaorui, a child, just now, has lost both parents. He is very pitiful. When he first came, he couldn't sleep at night and had nightmares. Later, I came to accompany her, tell stories, and wait for her to fall asleep before leaving." Meng Fanxing explained.

"I know this kid is really pitiful, so when she asked to take a photo with me, I agreed without thinking."

"How could the child be so young?"

"Thinking about it now, it is indeed very suspicious, but even so, can I refuse?" Lu Xiyan said, "She is already pitiful enough. No matter whether someone teaches her to do this, we cannot blame her. It is not her fault, but our adults have not protected her well."

"That Shizuka Fujimoto has been so troublesome, I'm afraid she won't give up." Meng Fanxing said worriedly.

"This woman is smart and can disguise, and it's really hard to deal with. So far, I have not found any evidence that she recognizes deliberate approach."

"Isn't using Xiaorui counting?"

"Forget it, in the quarantine area, she has a very good relationship with Xiaorui..."

"Will she use her child to get close to you again?" Meng Fanxing said worriedly.

"Xiaorui is two years younger than Xiaohui. I will send her to kindergarten first and go to school with Xiaohui, so they can have a companion." Lu Xiyan said.

"Well, I'll arrange this. Xiaorui is at her age and should go to school long ago. Girls also need to learn culture and have to do something in the future." Meng Fanxing said.

"Although Xiaorui was adopted by us, she no longer has her parents. I don't know exactly what her biological parents were. I only know a general address. From now on, her surname will be Lu, and she is my daughter of Lu Xiyan." Lu Xiyan said.

"Well, I think so too. If we have children in the future, no matter whether we are a man or a woman, we will have to regard Xiaorui as our own sister!" Meng Fanxing said.

"Then should we work hard?" Lu Xiyan smiled.

"I want a child now, what should I do if I study?" Meng Fanxing said, "I finally went to college. You don't want me to give up halfway, right?"

"How can we do it? We are still young, take it slowly. When you graduate, we will have one, and then we will have two children in three years. Do you think it's okay..."

"Xiyan, don't make a fuss, itchy..."

Looking at his wife's gorgeous red lips, Lu Xiyan could no longer bear it and leaned over and kissed her in pain.

It is said that a small separation is better than a newlywed.

When I woke up, it was already midnight.

"Ouch……"

"Get up, such a big man, I'm still staying in bed!" A whispering shout sounded in my ears, and Lu Xiyan just rang out. How ridiculous he was last night.

"Meimei, what time is it?" Lu Xiyan got up from the bed and asked embarrassedly.

“Eight o’clock.”

"Oh no, the taxpayer's by-election meeting for Director Hua was nine o'clock. Hurry up, find me a set of clothes." Lu Xiyan jumped up suddenly.

"It's ready for you long ago. You've washed up and come down to eat something quickly." Meng Fanxing walked over with his clothes and said.

...

At nine o'clock, Lu Xiyan finally arrived at the venue before the meeting. If he was late, he might leave a despicable impression on the deputies.

There are thousands of members of the Chinese Tax Paying Association in the French Concession, representing fifty-three. (The author has not verified this number. If it is wrong, please correct it.)

Not all members need to participate in the by-election meeting. As long as these fifty-three representatives vote, the number of participants exceeds two-thirds and half of the votes exceeds half of the representatives can be elected.

In the past, by-election meetings were held, either the voting representatives were less than two-thirds, and the number of voting representatives was enough, and the number of votes was not enough, so the fifth Huadong was not elected for a long time.

The conference room of the Chinese Tax Payment Association in the French Concession was full of people. They looked at it and were all the leaders of all walks of life in the French Concession.

The four confirmed Huagongs, except for the President Qian Laoren, who was not in Shanghai, who was not present, the other three Huagongs came.

Although Mr. Qian did not come, he still sent a representative to fulfill his voting rights.

The rest is the representation. Of course, there is definitely no one coming, but the number of people must exceed two-thirds of the number of people represented, and there is definitely no problem with voting by-election.

Lu Xiyan met Tan Qiao, the General Administration Office, who was representing the General Administration Office of the Public and Directors Office, to supervise and this by-election.

"Dear representatives, I, Zhang Yishu, was commissioned by the Public Directors Bureau and the Chinese Taxpayers Association of the French Concession to preside over today's Huadong by-election. According to the "Article of the French Concession Taxpayers Association", we have elected four directors in April this year, and there is still one candidate for the director. The main reason is that the fifth vote has not exceeded half and has not been recognized by many representative colleagues. However, the position of the fifth Huadong cannot always be vacant. Afterwards, I discussed with Director Qi and five other representatives to nominate the chairman of Fanxing Investment Company and Mr. Lu Xiyan, a Ph.D., of Clinical Medicine in France, as a candidate for director, and with another candidate Yu Yefeng..."

Yu Yefeng?

Many representatives showed a hint of confusion when they heard this. They had never heard of Yu Yefeng running for Director Hua before. What was going on?

Even Lu Xiyan was stunned. He was not Yu Yefeng who heard about it. He was competing with him for Hua Dong's position.

"What's going on? Ancestor, isn't there one of the candidates you are?" A representative immediately stood up and pointed at the original candidate and asked.

"I'm sorry, I'm in poor health and embarrassed by the great task, so I took the initiative to propose that I won't be this candidate." The candidate stood up and bowed and explained.

"Since you are not good at the ancestor, then just a candidate for Dr. Lu. Why should we vote? Just raise our hands and vote?" A representative said loudly.

"Please be quiet, Boss Yu's candidate qualifications are also in line with the by-election charter. Therefore, this time, there are two candidates for the by-election. One is Dr. Lu and the other is Boss Yu." Zhang Yishu was elected as the host, and he must stand up to maintain order.

Yu Yefeng's status in the Qing Gang is second only to the three tycoons, and he is the fourth tycoon. Moreover, he and Zhang Xiaolin are in-laws, and this relationship is much closer than the candidate who voluntarily withdrew just now.

It is obvious that Zhang Xiaolin is trying to push his own people up.

A sudden attack came.

As Zhang Xiaolin's Hua Dong, four more representatives were found to nominate Yu Yefeng as Hua Dong Dong, which was fully in line with the "Regulations on the Tax Payment Association of the Chinese Tax Payment Association of the French Concession".

There is no problem in the program at all.

"Next, please ask the two candidates to make a simple campaign declaration." Zhang Yishu announced, "I would like to invite the first candidate, Dr. Lu Xiyan."

"Dear uncles and uncles, good morning, everyone, junior Lu Xiyan, my father Lu Shan..."

"It turns out to be Lu Shan Gong's son. No wonder, I look a bit like it."

"What a pity, Lu Shangong and his wife both died in the bombing of the Japanese army in Zhabei. I really didn't expect that his son was so old and so powerful!"

"Honor Lu Shan has successor..."

...

Although Lu Xiyan's father is not a wealthy businessman, he is also well-off, has a wide range of friends, and has many people who know his father. Among the representatives, there are also many people who know his father.

Lu Shan is kind, has the kindness of elders, and has a good reputation.

I am kind-hearted and my son is a famous medical master. This time I saved thousands of people who were infected and infected, and have a very good relationship with the legal authorities.

Although he is a little younger, he is much easier to deal with than Yu Yefeng. Moreover, Yu Yefeng colluded with the Japanese with Zhang Xiaolin. If he was allowed to become Hua Dong, wouldn’t the French Concession be rampant in the future?

Lu Xiyan's speech mainly focused on improving public security, public health and medical care in the French Concession. After all, he is a consultant to the French arresting house and a doctor himself. These two aspects are relatively familiar to him and can do some things.

Yu Yefeng's campaign declaration is much simpler and more crude. He has no constructive opinions on the municipal management of the Public and Directors Bureau, but he has made a promise that he can make money with him as long as he is willing.

The so-called making money with him means relying on the Japanese, selling the country for glory, and making money from the national crisis.
