Tang Baichuan brought two cars, he and Chang Zhenbang's officers took a car, and the other took Niu Hongyun and others to a courtyard under his name. Ten minutes later, Chang Zhenbang and his entourage arrived in Wanghaichun, and before they got out of the car, Howard rushed over and opened the car door for them, taking advantage of people's inattention, he pulled Chang Zhenbang aside and whispered: "Brother Chang, you robbed the woman away, the overseers are not to blame, but those officers are very dissatisfied with your behavior." You'd better be careful! ”

Chang Zhenbang quietly took out a fifty yuan silver ticket and handed it to Howard, who knew that Howard not only accepted it, but also stuffed the silver ticket back in front of the public, and left angrily, although the officers upstairs didn't know why, they still couldn't help but laugh loudly.

"Brother, this is?" Qian Defa was a little puzzled, how could this matter of giving people money provoke such a big reaction from the quartermaster, no matter how you look at it, you shouldn't do this.

A soldier who came to serve them whispered: "You adults don't know, we Lord Howard have two monsters, one monster only eats white rice, and the other monster hates money and doesn't love money, and I hope you adults will take care of it." "Even ordinary soldiers came to speak softly for Howard, it seems that this person still has some way, and it is by no means something that these two monsters can summarize.

Thinking of this, Chang Zhenbang threw the fifty yuan silver ticket to this little soldier, and the little soldier was overjoyed, and he didn't know what to say for a while. I only saw that Zhang Youneng only stared, and said in my heart My good cousin, you officials and old men went happily with the little ladies one by one, leaving me Lao Zhang here to suffer a belly of anger, why do you cousin have to mean it! Why did you get cheap this little rabbit cub as soon as you came, is there any reason for this~!

Zhang Youneng also came to Chang Zhenbang's side with red eyes, and said: "Cousin, the study plan in the class is to go to Paris tonight to talk to each other, who knew that a Dongying person followed the overseer and Staff Officer Zhao for a long time, and turned the happy exchange at night into a class raised by a son of a bitch, is it really his mother's, we Chinese affairs can be managed by him Dongying people?" As long as my cousin is willing, my younger brother ......"

Chang Zhenbang thought about it and entered Wanghaichun, glanced back at Zhang Youneng who was following behind him, and said quite seriously: "Now that the people of Dongying are richer and stronger than us, they are willing to be our teachers, which is a good thing!" ”

Zhang Youneng was taken aback by him, hurriedly took a few steps back, followed again, and said: "I heard Adjutant Chen say that these guys are all Wu Dalang's seeds, if it weren't for the blessings of Ximenqing and Pan Jinlian, Dongying would ......."

Chang Zhenbang smiled bitterly and shook his head, these people are obviously clever and intelligent, they don't need to be bad by others, why don't they like the good ones, they just like these unfounded rumors, they just want to be happy for a while, and they are really useless to the country and the people. It's really a picture of the twilight of the old empire. But the national situation is like this, and the people's feelings are like this, so it is not good to blame Zhang Youneng too much, so he has to let him finish the history of Wu Dalang's founding of the country and the education of civil and military affairs.

After he finished speaking, Chang Zhenbang also arrived at the teacher's door on the fifth floor, which seemed to be a chasm separating Zhang Youneng and Chang Zhenbang, and it was a place where his identity could not reach.

"Youneng, Wu Dalang is a person from the era of Song Huizong. The Dongying people had already reached China in the Han Dynasty. After speaking, the soldiers on both sides opened the door, and Chang Zhenbang entered the classroom without looking back.

There was silence in the classroom, and the division commanders, brigade commanders, and regiment commanders all threw javelin-like glances at Chang Zhenbang, but they didn't get up to look for trouble, and even Bi Zehua, the emperor of Central China, made a look of a good student and sat at the bottom of the rostrum. Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but be a little curious, which Dongying people were suppressing these arrogant generals just by virtue of their reputation! Qian Defa and the others who came one after another also looked at each other, curious about this upcoming Dongying people.

At this time, there was silence in the classroom, but Chang Zhenbang could feel the floating of the people's hearts hidden under the silence, and suddenly he felt a burst of severe cold like Mount Tai overwhelming, and couldn't help but tremble, and then he only heard the door outside the door slowly opened, and a sturdy old man of one meter seven or eight walked in slowly, his steps were very small, even the small-footed woman was bigger than him, but his pace was very heavy, and every time he made a heavy sound, hitting the hearts of these officers sitting like a mountain falling rock. It makes people feel a complex emotion that they have to be afraid of but are not willing to be afraid of.

If his eyes are spirit monkeys, then this person's body is a miniature version of King Kong, and suddenly looks extremely thin like a thin monkey.

The kimono is very delicately worn, spotlessly clean, and the folds that have been formed by dressing like this for many years are as clear as a ravine, but there are almost no wrinkles in this kimono. There is a delicate folding fan on the waist, which adds a lot of style.

This person seems to be able to be able to write and martial arts and is a powerful character, and he is afraid that he will have to suffer some of this person's hardships when he becomes an enemy every day. Chang Zhenbang secretly shouted.

As soon as this person stepped onto the rostrum, Zhao Yuanren gave Bi Zehua a look, who knew that this gentleman had been completely shocked by the old man Dongying, and there was no movement, Zhao Yuanren had to sigh, got up and came to the rostrum, bowed lightly to the old man, turned to the crowd and said: "Today I am lucky to invite Mr. Aoki Kenji to give a speech and teach for us, it is really a blessing for us, a blessing for Central China, and please welcome you warmly!" ”

Everyone was indifferent, Chang Zhenbang applauded, but he was not the only one in the whole classroom who applauded, and a burst of applause came from the front, Chang Zhenbang looked at it with his eyes, and officially called Tang Baichuan, the son of the best in the world! The applause of the two men from left to right alarmed the other officers, and everyone realized their gaffe and hurriedly clapped their hands.

When the applause was about to stop, Zhao Yuanren continued: "Mr. Aoki was born into a samurai family in his early years, and his father was a great contributor to the bloodless opening of Edo with Count Katsukaishu. ”

There is a way that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and rat cubs will make holes, such a life experience naturally makes everyone look sideways, and their hearts are even more respectful of Aoki Kenji, among them are a few who can understand the history of their country, let alone the history of Dongying! However, since the father is from the dragon, his status is naturally not low. Chang Zhenbang was very disapproving, he naturally knew how much water there was in it, but the prestige of Lao Aoki was still there, but how could it be compared with Shenghaizhou!

"Mr. Aoki graduated from Lu University with honors in his early years, and showed excellent strategy and loyalty to the country in the war against the Russians in Toying, and became famous in history as the first soldier to enter the Port of Arthur! After the war, he resolutely resigned from all positions in the army, indulged in the landscape, and established Aoki Trading Company to devote himself to the friendly relationship between China and Dongying! ”

With Zhao Yuanren's introduction, everyone sighed, mostly indignant at Aoki Kenji's abandonment of the army to engage in business, they are also soldiers, and they have enjoyed the joy of being an officer, especially when this is not chaotic, it is even more mysterious, and naturally they also know what the situation of those businessmen is, I didn't expect this person to have such a good background, and he became a trader, and he was really a shameful loser. For a while, the goodwill towards Kenji Aoki lost a lot. In the eyes of some people, this person said that Datian was just a businessman, how could he compare with the majesty of an officer.

Chang Zhenbang was a little frightened when he heard it, there is a way that water flows to a low place, and people go to a high place. People are realistic, as long as there is a fifty percent profit, it will take risks; For the sake of 100 percent profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a profit of 300 percent, it dares to commit any crime, even risking hanging its head.

Throughout Aoki Kenji, this person is by no means an idealist, he was born in a samurai family without an idealistic environment, and there was no idealistic education at Tokyo Land University, and some are just military dogmas.

"Now, I'd like to ask Mr. Aoki to give us some pointers."

The crowd applauded decently, but the applause was loud but gave people a sense of listlessness.

After Zhao Yuanren finished speaking, he quietly retreated to Bi Zehua's side, this kind of behavior of overstepping his bounds, Bi Zehua didn't feel anything, but the nieces and sons-in-law behind him were very dissatisfied, especially attracting the hostility of the eldest son Bi Fujian, in his heart, this Huazhong is the courtyard of their family, the father is the owner, Aoki is the gentleman, the officers are the housekeepers, Zhao Yuanren is the housekeeper, he Bi Fujian is the young owner, how is it better than the housekeeper, this gentleman is here, the owner does not come forward, the young owner comes forward, where is your turn to be a bookkeeper Mr. come forward, isn't this a clear attempt to win over people and horses to rebel!

Aoki smiled slightly and said: "My name is Aoki Kenji, I am an old friend of the Chinese and Bi Dujun, our friendship began in Manchuria side by side against the white invasion of our yellow race, this friendship forged in the war is long-lasting, I feel extremely honored to know Bi Dujun!" Now I am just an ordinary Japanese businessman, committed to the friendly relations between China and Dongying, and hope that the countries of East Asia will be peaceful and co-prosperous in my lifetime! It was with this purpose and desire that Aoki Trading Company was established and established, and it was also supported by many big figures in Central China, Shandong and other provinces, especially my old friend Bi Dujun, who would like to thank Bi Dujun again! Saying that, he bowed ninety degrees to Bi Zehua in public, and his attitude was sincere and moving.

Bi Zehua was very happy and hurriedly stood up. He waved his hand again and again and said, "I can't help it, I can't help it!" Mr. Aoki is really tormented. ”

Aoki Kenji said very affectionately: "My old friend fought side by side back then, I injured my leg, you carried me on my back for a day and a night, you were captured and killed by the Russians, I single-handedly rescued you, you and I have this kind of friendship What is it!" ”

"Haha~!" Bi Zehua listened to it very usefully, I don't know how many times he said the heroic deeds of the year, but this time it came out of the mouth of Aoki, a big man, it was a different flavor.

Even the nerds had to say that this was the first time in the world that a yellow Asian country had triumphed over a European white country, and that it was a vast empire full of ferocity, brutality, and barbarism. This has had an exciting impact on the whole of Asia. It is the strongest voice of the generation to all the nations of the world, and the white people are no more than that, and their emperors are not sacred and predestined. For the first time since the time of the conquerors, when whites were defeated, all non-white peoples across the globe were filled with exciting hope. And he Bi Zehua not only personally participated in this war, but also made meritorious service and was injured, this glory should be written in the family tree, but it is a pity that the Chinese family tree has always been the glory of the literati, the protection of the lord, and the unpopular play of the martial artist is the same as those ordinary people and even scoundrels, only one name is marked. It cannot but be said that this is a pathetic prejudice.

"Mr. Aoki's life-saving grace, I dare not forget it all the time!" Bi Zehua said emotionally: "Old Bi can't do anything for Mr. Aoki, only to ensure that Mr. Aoki's Aoki Trading Company can move unhindered in the land of Central China!" In order to witness the deep friendship between our brothers! ”

When Liao Buji heard this, he couldn't help but stand up and pat his chest and shouted: "If Mr. Aoki's trading company comes to our Anyang, we will take good care of it, if anyone dares to make trouble with Mr. Aoki, Lao Tzu will not be the first to spare him!" ”

"Contemptible again, thank you for your kindness!" Aoki said that he should bow ninety degrees, and his attitude was not fake, Liao Buji was very proud, and said again and again: "I can't help it, Mr. Aoki is really out of sight!" It is also the duty of my generation to protect the territory and the people, and it is also the duty of my generation to protect the country and the people, and Mr. Aoki can come to give me face! ”

Sycophants!

A brigade commander glared at Liao Buji very unhappily, hurriedly stood up, and hurriedly said: "Sir, if we open a branch on the ground of Sanhe, we will definitely provide the most preferential tax exemption policy to Sir!" ”

Aoki bowed again and said emotionally: "Thank you for your kindness, how can you dare to think of a tax-free policy, only the place is safe, business travel is unhindered, and Aoki guarantees that there are a lot of fees to be paid!" ”

The brigade commander hurriedly said: "You're welcome, the lowly function is all up to the Overseer's hand today, and there is no lowly position without the Overseer Now, the lowly function is a little bit of strength for Mr. on behalf of the Lord, it is really a blessing for three lives, and I hope that Mr. will not shirk!" ”

The horse has a bird, and the rest of the people have also stood up to express their position.

Chang Zhenbang smiled bitterly but found that there were two sharp eyes looking at him, one didn't need to guess that it was also the eldest prince of Tang, and the other was who it was? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stand up, caught in the midst of these sycophants, but there was no sense of disharmony that stood out from the crowd, the man seemed to sense Chang Zhenbang's actions, and hurriedly moved his eyes elsewhere.

Chang Zhenbang had no choice but to sit down again, but found that Tang Baichuan's gaze was like a whip, first slapping him and then throwing it at Zhao Yuanren. Chang Zhenbang suddenly realized, thinking that the owner of that gaze turned out to be Zhao Yuanren. This person is said to be Bi Zehua's confidant, and there are ministers of Zhuge in Central China, don't look at his age, but he is just a staff officer, but everyone who understands knows that nine times out of ten the major and minor affairs in Central China come from his handwriting.

"I it, it turned out to be him!" When it was confirmed that it was this person, Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but scold, if his unfriendly words and deeds towards Aoki really fell into his eyes, it would be really troublesome. This guy doesn't want Bi Zehua to be so simple and rude to write love and hatred on his face, if he really offends this person, the consequences are really enough for him to drink a pot, but this person also has this person's weaknesses, since it is called Huazhong Wolong, this person's ethics can be imagined, he is the kind of guy who can be bullied by a gentleman, you might as well find a chance to hit him with a black gun, thinking of this, the uneasiness that rose in my heart gradually subsided, and then I remembered the secret letter handed over by Zhang Youneng, and Zhao Yuanren above must be this person, It seems that Lao Yu has a good relationship with him, is it a chance to sit and talk about life and ideals?

Thinking of this, Chang Zhenbang smiled and smiled at Zhao Yuanren, which made Zhao Yuanren a little confused, but after all, he had experienced strong winds and waves, and he still had a sense of cultivation, so he actually smiled at Chang Zhenbang, and after laughing, the two of them scolded the old (small) fox in their hearts almost at the same time, and they all turned their eyes to Aoki Kenji on the rostrum again.

Aoki Kenji smiled and bowed to the officers in thanks, and after the lively scene gradually cooled down, he talked about the long-standing friendship between China and Dongying, which was not without his admiration for the prosperity of the ancient Chinese civilization and his love for Han culture, and in the blink of an eye, he blamed the decline of Chinese civilization on the turmoil of the Mongols, the Manchu Qing and even the minority groups in the new Tibetan region. In short, if China were still a single Han nation, it would have risen for I don't know how many years, and it would even be stronger than Dongying. As soon as these words came out, many officers cheered, and some even said in public that once they returned to their stations, they would expel all minority groups.

Qian Defa looked at these division commanders around him, and the brigade commanders were excited to look like this kind of ghost, what a fucking shame, China is all his own credit, if it doesn't work, he will return it to others, it's really not a fucking thing, if it weren't for the presence of Aoki Kenji, an outsider, he would have rushed over to punch these scum a long time ago.

This kind of disdain is hidden in the crowd like a rabbit, and it is difficult for people to detect, but Aoki condescended like a vulture to catch this rabbit and said: "If this heroic and contemptible man with a lofty instrument is not mistaken, it should be Lord Qian Defa Qian, I don't know what you have to say about the above contemptibles?" ”
