Heihachiro Togo looked relaxed, approached the assassin and said, "Do you know why our Japan is always not strong? It's not that our army isn't strong, it's not that our nation isn't good, it's because you, the extreme nationalists, know nothing but hatred and killing, and you go around preaching the arrogant theory of the Great Japanese Empire, and every day you are clamoring for the theory of self-supremacy and hegemony. Japan will one day be destroyed at the hands of you people! ”
Chen Zhong waved his hand and said, "Let him go, they are all poor tools." ”
Chen Zhong ordered the naval fleet to deliver Nogi Noshinori and Togo Heihachiro safely to the handover site, and General Li Yong was personally responsible for the handover of the prisoners.
In the evening, Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng hurriedly drove to Chongming Island after learning that Chen Zhong had returned to Shanghai, and personally came to pick up Chen Zhong to the "Golden Shore" entertainment center in Shanghai and entertained Chen Zhong and his party.
The Golden Shore Entertainment Center is one of the largest industries in Shanghai, and this entertainment center operates casinos, theaters, hotels, etc., in short, to eat, drink and have fun.
After Huang Jinrong learned that Chen Zhong had arrived in Shanghai, they wanted to summon the industrial and commercial giants of Shanghai to come and wash the dust for Chen Zhong, but Chen Zhong refused. In the end, after obtaining Chen Zhong's consent, Huang Jinrong prepared a table of banquets on his Golden Shore.
The banquet was held in one of the most luxurious dining rooms on the second floor.
Huang Jinrong is really worthy of being the first tycoon in Shanghai, and he heard that Chen Zhong went north to resist Japan and achieved a great victory, and because of this, he shook the world. He sent people to Chongming Island every day to inquire about the news, and as soon as Chen Zhong arrived in Shanghai, he would immediately tell him.
He knew that in the troubled times, it was more important to have such a backer as the King of Hainan than to have thousands of family fortunes.
After Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng climbed into Chen Zhong's relationship, they occupied the scenery in Shanghai for a while. Even the former enemies have reined in, and some have even begun to show favor to them. The French Concession in Shanghai was even more impressed by Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng.
Huang Jinrong said: "The prince's battle with the Japanese army this time can be described as a sensation all over the world, you are our national hero!" When our Shanghai industrial and commercial circles learned that Wang Ye's fleet was stopping at Shanghai Port, they raised funds one after another, dedicated to Wang Ye's Hainan army, and congratulated Wang Ye's Hainan fleet on its brilliant achievements. ”
Chen Zhong smiled and said: "Brother Huang, you are so polite, this king thanks you and all walks of life in Shanghai for your support for the Hainan army, this is what this king should do." ”
Du Yuesheng said: "What the prince did was earth-shattering, and I admired it very much. It is our honor to be able to do something for the prince! ”
Chen Zhong laughed, patted Du Yuesheng and said, "Brother Du, this king also thank you!" You and Brother Huang have helped a lot in the matter of Chongming Island, and this king is very happy to have a group of brothers like you in Shanghai. ”
Du Yuesheng hurriedly got up, picked up the wine glass, and toasted Chen Zhong, he felt that he was extremely honored.
In Du Yuesheng's opinion, being able to have dinner with a figure like the King of Hainan and being able to call him a brother and brother is simply a blessing that he has cultivated for eight lifetimes.
Thinking of him Du Yuesheng, he has been lonely since he was a child, and he had no choice but to go to the beach, and finally climbed the big tree of Huang Jinrong and gradually made his fortune. He never dreamed that he could sit with such a world leader, what an honor.
While he was talking, Uncle Chang, Huang Jinrong's subordinate, walked in and whispered: "Boss Huang, there is a master who has almost won our entire casino, this guy is too powerful, if it goes on like this, our casino will be closed." ”
Huang Jinrong was taken aback and motioned for Du Yuesheng to take a look, Chen Zhong suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he asked: "What kind of person is he and what are you playing?" ”
Uncle Chang said: "Let the prince smile." Back to the prince's words, it was a middle-aged man in his forties, who spoke very little, but he could win every bet. ”
Huang Jinrong continued: "Lord Wang, my Golden Shore recently purchased a Golden Compass from France, this new way of gambling, has recently made a lot of money for our casino. ”
Chen Zhong's intuition told him that the person Huang Jinrong was talking about must be Akashi Genjiro.
So, Chen Zhong said: "Brother Huang, this king will go over with you to take a look, this golden compass." ”
Huang Jinrong said embarrassedly: "Lord, when I finish dealing with the affairs there, I will invite the prince over." ”
Chen Zhong smiled and said: "Boss Huang, this person is difficult for you to deal with, this king will help you and gamble with him." ”
Huang Jinrong was naturally happy when he heard Chen Zhong's words, because he didn't know what kind of background this person was, and the person who could guess every time on this golden compass would definitely not be an idle person. Chen Zhong can help him get ahead, of course, that's the best thing.
Chen Zhong came to the casino center of the Golden Compass, and saw a somewhat sloppy middle-aged man standing in front of the compass, concentrating on calculating the pointer stop of the compass.
Huang Jinrong was about to step forward to speak, but Chen Zhong stopped him, and he walked straight to Akashi Genjiro's side.
Akashi Genjiro had already felt that Chen Zhong was approaching him.
Chen Zhong said: "This brother, are you interested in changing the way you play?" ”
Akashi Genjiro didn't look at Chen Zhong, continued to stare at the rotating compass in front of him, and said, "Of course, it's not interesting to play alone, let's say, how to play?" ”
Chen Zhongdao: "Let's play three games, and at the same time guess the bet, you win more, you win me." ”
Akashi Genjiro smiled faintly, still looking at the compass in front of him and said, "That's a good suggestion, let's get started." ”
So, Huang Jinrong asked all the gamblers who were betting on the compass to leave, and re-set the compass for Chen Zhong and Akashi Genjiro, and they began the first game, each of them wrote down the number of bets on a piece of paper, and after the compass rotated, they stopped again, and then they announced the numbers of the two bets.
After the three-game competition, Chen Zhong and Akashi Motojiro played a tie without a bad score.
Akashi Motojiro said: "It seems that I have met an opponent, and tonight, all the money that my brother won on the Golden Shore will be yours." ”
Chen Zhong said with a smile: "The person who can play the golden compass to this extent must be a mathematical genius, and he is a master who is good at calculating the layout. ”
Akashi got up and walked towards the door of the casino, where the casino's bodyguards were about to stop him, and Chen Zhong motioned for them to let him out.
Genjiro Akashi turned back to Chen Zhong and smiled, and said, "We'll meet again." ”
