Chapter 143: ,secret

The provincial government building, located on Ganjiang Street, covers an area of ​​1,000 acres. In terms of Mars, which is sparsely populated, this area is not large. As the administrative center in charge of a province in Tianfeng Province, it has gradually become the governor's private territory.
Behind the provincial government building is the governor's mansion. After several expansions, the area is only a little smaller than the provincial government. However, from the map, the provincial government building and the governor's mansion are almost reattached. This is not in accordance with the regulations, but Mars is far from the earth, and the retro wave is constantly being mentioned. The Ma family covers the sky in Tianfeng province, and no one dares to mention it.
In Tianfeng Province, the provincial government building is also known as the city's main government.
Below the governor, there are twelve deputy governors, six of them surnamed Ma. The influence of the Ma family in Tianfeng Province is evident. This is not a conference room, but the study of the governor. Spacious and quiet, the tall bookshelf almost occupies the entire wall of more than three meters high and more than five meters long. The bookshelf is full of books. From the Four Books and Five Classics, Biography of Historical Records, Finance and Politics, Science and Astronomy ... It cannot be said to be all-encompassing, but All Zibai families are involved. There is no extra decoration in the study, a few chairs and a desk, and no computer.
An old man was lying on the only deck chair, tall and slightly obese. Half a hundred hair showed his age was over seventy. A wet towel was placed on his forehead, his eyes were slightly closed, his breathing was slight, and he seemed to be asleep. Now, he is the supreme leader of Tianfeng Province, the master of this city, Ma Xuewang, and the owner of the Ma family.
The Ma family was the first generation to migrate from the earth. The earliest merchants were merchants. However, the merchants had no status. The Ma family was unwilling to be a statusless businessman for a lifetime. The reconstruction work after the end of the war, the Ma family seized the opportunity. The identity of the businessman became a scholar, starting with a small clerk, one step at a time, after a century of development, he took the position of deputy governor of Tianfeng Province. At this time, the Ma family was already in Tianfeng Province. The famous family is famous, but it is only in the province of Tianfeng. It was a coup 20 years ago that really made the Ma family the first family.
Ma Xuewang, who had just inherited his father's position, seized the opportunity in the chaos, calmed other competitors with an iron hand, successfully won the governor's throne, and removed the word "deputy" worn on his father's head for more than 20 years. Later, Ma Xuewang gradually controlled the entire Tianfeng Province by means of pulling out, and a large number of members of the Ma family were inserted into government agencies. Now, the order of the earth ’s capital has passed to Tianfeng Province, and some of them are no longer effective.
Nominally, the province of Tianfeng also obeys the management of the capital of the earth. In fact, everyone knows the situation. However, this situation is not only the province of Tianfeng, but also the situation in other remote provinces. Therefore, no one accuses Ma Xuewang of not being, but this does not mean that Ma Xuewang does not want to develop Tianfeng Province well.
Mars is short of food, and food has always been a sensitive issue. The topic of food is carefully and cautiously, so Ma Xuewang will leave the problem of food to the people who trust him most. His brother, Ma Xuecheng, did not think of it. trouble.
Ma Xuewang's father married four wives in total. With the formation of the hierarchy, it is common for nobles to marry several wives. The law only promotes monogamy, polygamy, or polygamy in principle. It is not allowed, but when everyone does this, the law is already in vain, but the law has not been modified because of some moral issues.
As there are more wives, there are more children. Therefore, Ma Xuewang has seven brothers and four sisters, that is, eleven siblings, but only Ma Xuecheng has one mother and his compatriots. Ma Xuewang's mother is his father's third wife. He belongs to a concubine and has no status. Therefore, Ma Xuewang's childhood was not good, especially when his mother gave birth to Ma Xuecheng. He died when he was one year old. After that, life will be more difficult.
Ma Xuewang's father was a deputy governor at that time. However, the number of deputy governors in a province is quite large. His father is only one who is not eye-catching. He has a lot of political enemies and has a lot of annoyances. The two brothers who control Ma Xuewang in time, without their mother, have the same as having no father. Therefore, Ma Xuewang's childhood was not happy.
Because he suffered too much in childhood, when he grew up, Ma Xuewang took care of his brother as much as possible, and gave him the most important part of the province's food management. Food is related to people's livelihood, especially in places where food is lacking. Ma Xuecheng is also a bit High weight.
However, what caused Ma Xuewang's headache was his younger brother, who was able to learn, and was not lacking in mind, that is, he was grumpy, and sometimes he was too selfish and lacked a big picture. Take this food crisis, for example, he has a hunch. His brother must have played a disgraceful role in it. Otherwise, he would not be so angry.
"... If I was caught leaking by someone, I will not spare him, and people who look up and rob food and raise prices must also find out, these bastards, making a country difficult for money-" Ma Xuecheng felt suddenly The heavy pressure struck, as if Mount Tai was on top, and he couldn't help breathing. He suddenly raised his head to meet the elder brother's bright eyes, two chills like a knife, without a trace of emotion, staring straight at him.
Ma Xuecheng opened his mouth, feeling a chill inexplicably, his mind was blank, and what he wanted to say was forgotten. I have been very afraid of this big brother since he was a child, but this kind of cold look is still rarely seen. Generally, this is only the case when the big brother is furious.
His roar came to an abrupt halt, and the study suddenly entered the deadly winter from the noisy summer.
"Getting you over is to solve the problem, not to find the cause. Is it useful to find the cause at this time? Is there any time? No matter how important it is." Ma Xuewang said coldly.
"But-" Ma Xuecheng was not convinced.
"How do you find the cause, do you find it yourself?" Ma Xuewang's voice increased a little, with a hint of anger.
"No--" Ma Xuecheng just said a word and immediately closed his mouth, only feeling a chill from the heel directly to the back of his head, almost sweating out of cold sweat, "Big brother learned, I know what to do This is done. "
He originally wanted to say someone from the Public Security Bureau, but immediately awakened to him how a deputy governor in charge of food had the right to command the police department. This was an official taboo. Although he knew that his elder brother was very good to him, it involved a struggle for rights. However, there is no brotherhood to say. If he didn't brake at this door, he would definitely not have a good life in the future.
Ma Xuewang's cold eyes moved away from Ma Xuecheng's body, and his head slightly lifted back down. Ma Xuechengton felt the tide-like pressure receded, his body lightened, and he knew that his brother finally let him go. He heard his calm voice in his ear: How is it? "
In addition to Ma Xuecheng, there are two people in the study, one is Cheng Zhangzhang, the vice governor in charge of publicity, and the other is Ma Xuecheng's secretary.
Although Cheng Zhizhang is not a surname Ma, he is a supporter of Ma Xuewang, and is Ma Xuewang's most trusted confidant. Otherwise, he would not give him such an important publicity department.
"Citizens don't worry about it, they just pass on it. As long as they tell the truth, they believe that the market will soon be calm." Cheng Zhizhang bowed.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Ma Xuewang said quietly, with a daunting murderous tone.
"Is it Xiangjia and Xue's?" Ma Xuecheng moved in his heart.
Xiangjia and Xuejia are second only to the Ma family. Although they failed to compete with Ma Xuewang for the governor's position and suffered considerable pressure, the two were deeply entrenched, each occupying a position in the vice governor. Not so Easy to deal with, especially to fight against the increasingly powerful Ma family. The two formed an alliance and heard that they were still married. In the process of Ma Xuewang's administration, he continued to make small moves.
Needless to say, there must be their presence in this food crisis.
"It's not just these two." Cheng Zhizhang glanced at Ma Xuewang with a dignified tone, "and the Wang family and Su family."
Ma Xuecheng's face changed and became very ugly. The four big families stood together, which was enough to compete with the Ma family.
"As long as there is food, everything is not afraid." Ma Xuecheng's complexion changed a little, and finally he turned cold, but he knew that in order to cope with some crises, tens of millions of tons of rice and flour were hidden in underground warehouses. Wind province has not harvested grain in two years, and there is no need to worry about food. As long as some food is taken out to calm food prices, the rumors of the food crisis will not be broken.
However, after speaking, he found that Cheng Zhizhang's expression was strange. It was an expression that could not be described in words, which made him wonder. Did he say something wrong? His doubts didn't last long, the elder brother Ma Xuewang sounded with a thick nasal sound.
"The warehouse is out of food."
Ma Xuewang was busy with the monster invasion during this time, and his work schedule was irregular. He had some cold in the past two days, and he caught a cold today. To this day, science and technology have also greatly enhanced the level of medicine, and colds are no longer a disease. At least for more than a century, no one has heard of deaths due to colds, but uncomfortable is indispensable.
"What?" Ma Xuecheng almost jumped up. "How can there be no food, how do I not know?" He could not help but be shocked. As the vice governor in charge of food, Chang Pingcang's food is his most important political resource. , But now the elder brother said no.
This feeling was even more absurd than when he got up in the morning and found it was still dark outside.
Ma Xuewang's cold eyes told Ma Xuecheng that all of this is not a joke, but true. In Ma Xuewang's cold eyes, Ma Xuecheng calmed down quickly, restored his rationality of thinking, and asked carefully: "So much food ... where has it gone?"
The only person who can bypass his food and silently take away his food is the big brother in Tianfeng Province, but he really can't figure out where so much food is used, and it ’s impossible to feed pigs so fast.
Ma Xuewang looked at Cheng Zhizhang, his calm voice with a trace of tiredness: "What to do, you know what you know, I believe you can do well, and tell Lu Mingxiao that the society must be stable, and those who are in trouble can not stay ~ www.mtlnovel .com ~ go. "
Lu Mingxiao is the director of the Public Security Department and the director of the Xinfeng Public Security Bureau.
"Subordinates retire." Cheng Zhizhang bowed and saluted, and withdrew from the study.
"There were some things that could not be said before." Ma Xuewang stared at Ma Xuecheng with a dignified look: "This matter is related to the survival of the Ma family, so I have never told you that the grain is sold, and now we are left Hundreds of thousands of tons are all military food. "
Ma Xuecheng was inexplicably nervous, but he knew his brother's habit and didn't like to be interrupted by others. Although he had many problems in his heart, he remained silent.
"All the food has been used for weapons." Ma Xuewang's fluttering sentence fell into Ma Xuecheng's ears, but it was like a thunder. The whole man almost stood still.
arms? A frontier official, what do you want a weapon for? If you want to pay off the rebels or something, you can apply directly to it, and exchange weapons in private. This is illegal, and the answer is already on the horizon.
rebel!
