Chapter 1393 Blackmail

In the past, Ma Bo had handled the issue of the departure and retention of individual special personnel in the immigration camp extremely well, and had never caused any trouble. As time went by, his guard was naturally let down. When the variable Liu Shang appeared,

, before he had time to take precautions, the other party took the approval document signed by Zeng Xiaowen and transferred an army, and transferred several people he had planned to transfer away to work as helpers. At this time, Ma Bo wanted to take more people from Liu Shang.

Taking it away from the bottom, and worrying about arousing Liu Shang's suspicion, it will naturally be more troublesome to deal with it.

Heiying also knew that this matter could not be done forcefully, and sighed: "If you could buy off that Haihan official before, it would be much easier now!"

Ma Bo asked tentatively: "How about... try one more time? People are greedy for money. The benefits he refused to give last time were probably because the money was too little?"

"Let's try again! It's a long night and a lot of dreams, so we have to get my people out as soon as possible." Black Shadow quickly made a decision: "Don't delay, just talk to him tonight."

Ma Bo hesitated and said: "If Liu still refuses to cooperate, what should we do? You can't put a knife to his neck and threaten him, right?"

The black shadow responded: "Everyone has weaknesses, no one is exception. Think about it, what are the weaknesses of people like him!"

A foreign official from the capital city of Haihan has no relatives in Shandong and is not greedy for petty gains. He seems to have no obvious weaknesses at all. As a country rich man, Ma Bo's biggest reliance is just a round-about in-law with the senior officials of Haihan.

It seems that this relationship cannot be used to threaten Haihan officials. Ma Bo does not have the courage to threaten his life with force. Moreover, if there is a problem with Liu Shang's personal safety, the Haihan people will definitely investigate the truth.

Sometimes it can easily lead to bigger troubles.

Ma Bo thought about it for a while, but still had no clue. He could only say with a grimace: "The villain is stupid and really can't think of any good solution."

"So many of you in the Ma family have already gone out to make a fortune, and you can only stay here to guard these refugees and make some small money." The black figure said with a bit of resentment: "If only you had a little better brains,

How did it lead to the current situation?"

Ma Bo responded submissively and did not dare to refute the other party's evaluation. He also knew that he was stupid and was not good at studying and doing business. The land in his family was passed down from the previous generation. When he took over the position of the head of the family, he met Deng again.

During the Lai Rebellion, it was impossible to organize long-term workers and peasants to organize normal agricultural production, and the family assets were shrinking year by year. The arrival of the Haihan people gave him a chance to get ahead, and he had to choose between the Ming Dynasty and Haihan. In the end, he

He chose his homeland - because someone threatened him. If he cooperates, he will be rich and prosperous. If he doesn't, there will be only death.

But now there is no trace of glory and wealth, but there are constant risks. As long as things are exposed, he will definitely be shot. But there is no medicine for regret in the world, and he also dare not offend the master of Ming Dynasty, otherwise if the Haihan people really leave in the future

, the Ma family's property could not be saved at all. Both parties were untouchable, so Ma Bo himself became a rat in the bellows, and could only bear the plywood in silence in the middle.

The black figure sighed again, and said in a rather helpless tone: "Tell me, what do officials fear most?"

Ma Bo subconsciously responded: "Of course it's the black gauze hat that I'm most afraid of losing!"

"Isn't this the end!" Black Shadow said: "If the person named Liu is still unwilling to accept the benefits, then you should think of a way in this direction, do you understand?"

Ma Bo seemed to understand, but he was afraid that the other party would continue to scold him, so he quickly nodded and said: "I understand, I understand, I understand!"

No matter how good his words were, he still had to see the truth. Ma Bo went back to his room and thought hard for a long time, but still didn't have a clear idea. At this time, the servant at home came to tell him that Liu Shang had returned from outside.

Although he had noticed something was wrong with Ma Bo, Liu Shang did not move out of Ma Bo's house. He believed that his attitude was very clear, that is, he would not cooperate with Ma Bo and participate in it. If Ma Bo was unhappy with his attitude, he would definitely

There will be some expression, but judging from the subsequent situation, Ma Bo seems to have given up trying to bribe him, but he did not show any hostility. Under this situation, if Liu Shang still insists on moving out, it will be unavoidable.

It would offend Ma Bo, and he would have to work in the immigration camp, which might cause a lot of inconvenience. So in the end he decided not to move, but to go to the public canteen outside the village for three meals instead of staying at Ma's house.

Solved.

Liu Shang tried his best to reduce the time he spent alone with Ma Bo in private, so he naturally planned to draw a clear line with him. However, he did not expect that after several days, Ma Bo actually came to visit him again, and this time

The method is more direct.

"Brother Liu, you have been here for a few days, and you have gradually become familiar with the environment. Although you don't have to worry about food and accommodation when you live here, Brother Liu came from Zhifu Island in a hurry, and he probably didn't bring much money with him.

I have prepared some thoughts and asked Brother Liu not to refuse."

After Ma Bo finished speaking, he took out a stack of Haihan banknotes from his lapel and placed them gently on the table in front of Liu Shang: "Brother Liu, take this for emergencies. If you don't have enough, just ask me at any time."

Liu Shang was not in a hurry to speak. He glanced at the table first and saw that this time they were all replaced with half-new banknotes. He thought to himself that Ma Bo had learned a lesson and didn't do anything like bribery with new coins again.

What a fool. And this time he did not put the banknotes in the envelope, but took them out directly and put them on the table. This would not leave him any excuse for a sudden windfall. But he looked at it again

After checking the thickness of the banknotes, it was obvious that there was a lot more money than the last time I put it in the envelope. It looked like it was really a heavy purchase.

Liu Shang stretched out a finger and gently opened the stack of banknotes. Sure enough, there were a lot more banknotes than last time. By visual inspection, there were at least twenty ten-yuan banknotes. Ma Bo, on the other hand, was carefully watching Liu Shang's expression, hoping

You can see some emotional changes on his face. But unfortunately, his opponent is a truly well-trained spy, and his control of expressions and emotions is far beyond compare. Although this money is no longer considered valuable in Liu Shang's eyes

It was a small amount, but not enough to change his expression. Even if Ma Bo stared out his eyes, he would not see the scene he expected.

"Brother Ma, that's too polite. Although I can't be said to be a rich man, I still have some money." Liu Shang gently pushed the stack of banknotes back to Ma Bo with his fingers: "Brother Ma,

I accepted it out of kindness, but I still can’t take the money.”

Ma Bo's face darkened slightly and he said: "Brother Liu, I have good intentions. There is no third person here, why do you refuse like this? Could it be that you look down on me?"

Liu Shangdao: "Why do you look down upon me? I'm already troubled by living here, so how can I add extra trouble to Brother Ma! If Brother Ma continues to be so polite, then I will have no choice but to move to the garrison camp."

Although the Haihan Army has a small number of troops stationed in Majiazhuang, it also has a special camp. It is not difficult to make a bed for officials like Liu Shang. Of course, if Liu Shang moves away, Ma Bo can meet him

The opportunities are basically only in the workplace, so it will be difficult to have one-on-one talks like this.

Ma Bo's face has begun to look a little ugly: "Brother Liu, you are not giving face to your brother. Why do you need to make your words too clear and leave some room for it?"

Liu Shang responded unhurriedly: "That's too clear? Let's just explain it clearly. Why did Brother Ma give me these benefits? There's no need to explain the cover-up. Ma

Brother, let’s just talk about the topic!”

Of course, Liu Shang had already seen that Ma Bo was planning to bribe him with this, but his purpose was not yet clear. He believed that he had already got some handle on Ma Bo, and he was not afraid of what tricks Ma Bo could use against him. Today

Since it was Ma Bo who came to the door on his own initiative, Liu Shang planned to have a limited showdown with him.

Ma Bo hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Liu, in that case I'll tell you the truth. If you accept the money, it will be convenient for everyone and take care of each other in the future. Wouldn't it be a good thing?"

Liu Shangdao: "No reward will be given for no merit. If I accept it, I guess the money will not be in vain. There will be no need to go around the circle anymore. Let me just say something happy!"

Ma Bo's face became more and more gloomy, and his tone became lower and lower: "Brother Liu, you are making it difficult for me to do this. If you think this money cannot be accepted, then I'm sorry, I probably won't be able to remain friends with you.

"

Liu Shang smiled and said, "What then?"

"Then?" Seeing Liu Shang being so stubborn, Ma Bo finally became angry: "Then your position as propaganda officer will soon be lost!"

Liu Shang shook his head and said: "I have done nothing wrong, so why do you say I can't keep my position? Besides, I am under the jurisdiction of the Youth League, and Chief Chen is not my direct boss. Even if you report me, it will be useless."

Ma Bo shook his head and said: "There is no need to report you. As long as you enter the immigration camp, I will have a way to deal with you." He and Liu Shang now seemed to have a falling out, and even the polite names were omitted.

Liu Shang said with a sharp look: "You want to frame me and frame me? What good will it do to you to take me away?"

Ma Bo said: "What's the benefit to me? Since you are unwilling to cooperate with me, you don't need to know. You only need to know one thing. In this place, I, Ma Bo, have the final say!"

While Liu Shang was dealing with Ma Bo, he was pondering the opponent's plan in his mind. If Ma Bo wanted to use violence to surrender, there would be no talk of losing his official position. Moreover, if something happened to him in the immigration camp, Chen Yixin would definitely investigate him strictly.

The inside story is that Ma Bo's affairs may not be able to be concealed from others by then. Most of the methods mentioned by the other party are to try to frame himself for some crime, and then Haihan officials will investigate and deal with him.

Liu Shang stayed in Gongmen for a long time, so he could quickly think of seven or eight similar trapping techniques, and they were all relatively simple and practical ones. A rich country man like Ma Bo probably wouldn't know either.

Is there any more powerful trick, but Liu Shang's work has to deal with the immigration camp, so there is no way to avoid it and the only choice is a head-on confrontation.

However, Liu Shangke did not intend to put himself in danger, and immediately counterattacked: "Do you think such a threat can scare me? As long as you say hello to Chief Chen, won't all your efforts be in vain?"

Ma Bo had already explained his intentions, but calmed down instead. He shook his head and said: "It's useless for you to file a complaint. Is there any evidence? What is the purpose of threatening you as a propaganda officer? Chief Chen will not believe your words.

Give up!"

Ma Bo thought that Liu Shang didn't know much, but Liu Shang knew that he already had enough information. If it was exposed, Ma Bo would definitely be arrested by the Haihan people. But the problem is that Liu Shang hasn't decided yet.

How to explain that he saw through the real problems in the immigration camp and confirmed that Mabo was the mastermind of the matter. If he exposed the matter, all the evidence would eventually point to his own suspicious identity, and this is what he wanted to do his best.

situations to avoid.

Seeing that Liu Shang was silent for a long time, Ma Bo thought that his threat had already had an effect, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "It must not be easy for you to get an official position. If you are found guilty of some inexplicable crime and lose your official position, it will be very uneconomical."

.As long as you agree to cooperate with me, I will keep you safe locally and make a fortune!"

Liu Shang felt like a mirror in his heart, knowing that Ma Bo's money was mostly provided by the mastermind behind the scenes, rather than him getting it from free money in the immigration camp. Otherwise, he would have to rely on the difference between the relief food and Ma Bo to bribe him.

It was a loss-making transaction. And Ma Bo was eager to bribe him, maybe it had something to do with the few people he picked out from the immigration camp.

Thinking of this, Liu Shang asked again: "If I agree to your cooperation, what are you going to ask me to do?"

This time it was Ma Bo's turn to hesitate. He had not considered the overall plan when he came to Liu Shang. As for how to arrange for Liu Shang to return those few people back to the immigration camp without leaving a trace after convincing Liu Shang, he had not yet thought about it.

What a safe approach.

"You...ask for leave and go back to Zhifu Island for two or three days. I will tell you what you need to do when you come back." In desperation, Ma Bo only came up with this roundabout way to save the country.

As long as Liu Shang is sent away for a few days, Ma Bo will have enough time to arrange the way out for those people. When Liu Shang comes back from Zhifu Island, he can transfer a few more people to help him. It will be completed without anyone noticing.

Liu Shang will definitely not be aware of the inside story of this matter.

Of course, this was just Ma Bo's unilateral idea. He could not have imagined that Liu Shang had already seen through the identities of those people, and the flaw came from him. Ma Bo wanted to help those people escape while concealing their identities.

, but it is a pity that Liu Shang, the person involved, has already seen everything, so the real purpose of this suggestion cannot be hidden from Liu Shang at all.
