After the luncheon, Nobuyuki Abe invited Zhao Ming and Ye Tufei to his study.

"Is Mr. Abe satisfied with this study?" As soon as he entered the study, Zhao Ming asked with a smile.

Three months ago, when Nobuyuki Abe was still in the post of prime minister, Zhao Ming went to Tokyo to meet Abe, and on that occasion, Nobuyuki Abe also invited Zhao Ming to his home, and it was also on that occasion that Zhao Ming wanted to decorate a Chinese-style study for Abe Nobuyuki.

All the raw materials were shipped from China, and all the craftsmen were also invited from China, led by one who is said to have made furniture for the Qing Dynasty palace.

Unfortunately, the study was repaired, and Nobuyuki Abe also fell.

Fortunately, Nobuyuki Abe has not been influenced by Chinese feng shui culture, and he will not think that this study has ruined his political feng shui.

Nobuyuki Abe beckoned his subordinates to make tea for Zhao Ming and Ye Tufei, and replied to Zhao Ming with a smile: "I am very satisfied, now, one-third of my time is spent in this study. ”

This sentence, Abe Nobuyuki was telling the truth, but when Zhao Ming heard it, he felt extremely desolate. A politician, after the fall, is so deserted that he can only survive alone in his own study for a third of the time.

Nobuyuki Abe beckoned the two of them to sit down in the study, and then asked Ye Tufei with interest: "Young man, Mr. Zhao told me that you are very good, I would like to hear your understanding of the current situation, I don't know if you are willing or not?" ”

Nobuyuki Abe can't speak Chinese, but fortunately, Zhao Ming and Ye Tufei's Japanese skills are not bad, so there is no obstacle to communication at all. Nobuyuki Abe made a request, which played into the hands of Ye Tufei, he wanted to drag Nobuyuki Abe down and become a pawn that he could borrow, so he had to show Nobuyuki Abe his point of view and convince Nobuyuki Abe to agree with his point of view.

"Since Mr. Abe has a problem, the juniors have an axe, and if it's not right, I have to ask Abe's seniors to take care of it!" As soon as Ye Tufei spoke, his pure Japanese with a Tokyo accent attracted the favor of Nobuyuki Abe. "Japan's future will certainly not be satisfied with the end of the Sino-Japanese war, in other words, all of Japan's actions towards China now are only preparations for its lofty goal, which is to dominate the world!"

"Dominate the world?" Nobuyuki Abe repeated Ye Tufei's words, this is a tacit secret, but the vast majority of Japanese people have such a dream, but diplomatically, Japan has always hidden this dream, for fear of causing disgust from the powers. Now, a Chinese, a young Chinese, has bluntly spoken this secret, and Nobuyuki Abe sighed in his heart, it seems that time is running out, and Japan really does not need to hide this ideal anymore, because it cannot be hidden, and there is nowhere to hide.

"Abe-senpai, don't tell me that Japan has never had the ideal of dominating the world. If this is the case, Mr. Zhao and I will immediately go home, because there is no hope of peace between China and Japan. ”

Nobuyuki Abe smiled bitterly, why did the Japanese support the new government represented by Zhao Ming, why did the Japanese put forward the policy of using China to govern China, didn't they think about turning the whole of China into North Korea and Taiwan/Bay?

It's just that China is too big for tiny Japan to swallow at all, and even if it is the land in the three eastern provinces, isn't it a 'Manchukuo' that can be regarded as a settling down?

It is not objective to deny this young man's statement, but if he admits it himself, Abe Nobuyuki feels that something is inappropriate, after all, this is Japan's national policy. It would be even more inappropriate to deal with it in a reproachful tone, after all, the topic was raised by itself.

Nobuyuki Abe could only play some tricks to avoid this topic: "Young man, I don't want to affect your thinking because of my opinions. ”

Ye Tufei smiled, he had expected this result, if Abe Nobuyuki gave a positive answer under his aggressive question, whether it was positive or negative, it would be regarded as a losing move, if so, then Abe Nobuyuki's practice would also be a little worse.

"Only by solving the China problem and being fully prepared can Japan try to achieve its ideals. I think this is the core value of the existence of our new government! Ye Tufei's outspokenness also shocked Zhao Ming, and he immediately stopped Ye Tufei with his eyes.

Nobuyuki Abe noticed Zhao Ming's eyes, and said to Zhao Ming with a smile: "We are not doing diplomatic talks, we are old friends chatting together, I appreciate this young man, what he thinks in his heart, what he expresses in his mouth, and he always speaks in his heart." He instead encouraged Ye Tufei and said, "Well, young man, keep talking, don't be afraid to say the wrong thing!" ”

Ye Tufei smiled faintly, and continued: "This ideal seems to be the ideal of the Japanese military, but in fact, the military is just a representative, and the real ideal holder is the vast number of Japanese people, and it is your entire Yamato nation." Therefore, no single force can stop this trend, and any political force that tries to dissuade the Japanese people from abandoning this ideal will prove to be a mantis arm to block the car. ”

Hearing this, Nobuyuki Abe nodded subconsciously.

"For Japan, the war will only expand, and it will definitely not shrink. Once the war spreads, no matter who the opponent is, Japan's biggest contradiction is the problem between its strong military power and its scarce resources. Abe senior, to tell you the truth, with the assistance of Mr. Zhao, I founded a trading house, and the main business is to hoard all kinds of strategic materials, and I believe that one day, the value of these strategic materials will be doubled upward, and this day is not far away. ”

Nobuyuki Abe frowned and said, "Although what you said is very reasonable, it is against the interests of the country to do this kind of business. ”

Ye Tufei said: "How can it be said that it is against the interests of the country? For example, the current market price of oil is about 10 yen a barrel, and I hoarded 10,000 barrels of oil, and when the price reached more than 20 or even 30 yen a barrel, and it was still difficult for Japan to buy it, I sold it to the Japanese state for 15 yuan a barrel. Abe-senpai, do you think this is helping the country or harming the country? ”

Nobuyuki Abe fell into deep thought.

On the surface, this is indeed helping the country, but subconsciously, there is always a feeling of making war money and blackmailing the country to make money.

Fortunately, Ye Tufei solved the confusion for Abe Nobuyuki in a timely manner: "Senior Abe, what we make from this kind of business is only our forward-looking money, even if it is a state act, doesn't it cost to store materials?" Besides, given Japan's current diplomatic situation, it is already difficult to store these strategic materials, which is why the strategic concept of feeding the war with war has been proposed, but don't you think that the cost of raising such strategic materials is too high? ”

Nobuyuki Abe had to admit that what Ye Tufei said was correct.

Feeding war with war is a last resort, and it is not possible to completely achieve self-sufficiency in strategic materials, whether it is Manchukuo or China's Japanese theater, there is hardly a drop of oil to be found, and the modern mechanized troops, without oil, are equivalent to running out of rations, and any tank and combat vehicle will be a pile of scrap iron.

Nobuyuki Abe was once prime minister, and he was well aware of Japan's domestic reserves of strategic materials, whether it was going north to the Soviet Union or south to conquer the whole of Asia, as long as the war started in an all-round way, the preparation of existing strategic materials would only be enough to support about a year.

It is the need to expand the avenues to prepare these strategic goods more fully!

Nobuyuki Abe understands very well that Japan's dependence on the United States for strategic materials is very serious, while the United States is drifting away from Japan, and although it is not turning its face at present, the US Government has set many overt and covert restrictions on the trade in the Japanese Government's strategic materials, resulting in a decline in Japan's trade volume with the United States at a rate of 30 percent per quarter. According to this momentum, within half a year, the United States will announce a trade ban on Japan.

The United States has promulgated a law strictly prohibiting the trade of goods with the Japanese people, otherwise, once it is discovered, it will be punished as a crime of smuggling. As for smuggling, there is no need to think about it, as soon as the gangs engaged in the material smuggling business in the United States hear that the buyers are Japanese, they are like seeing the plague, and they are not willing to meet for a face-to-face meeting no matter how much money they give.

Hearing Ye Tufei say that he had a way to purchase the strategic materials that Japan urgently needed, Abe Nobuyuki's eyes lit up, besides, Ye Tufei didn't plan to do that kind of business while the fire was hot, he just used his vision and resources to make some reasonable profits.

If he accepted Ye Tufei's suggestion, then when Japan encountered material difficulties after expanding the war, he Abe Nobuyuki would be able to ......

Thinking of this, Abe Nobuyuki's face showed a knowing smile, and he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Ye Tufei.

"Young man, I can't refuse your suggestion, it's a matter that benefits both parties, and for the sake of the future of the Great Japanese Empire, I, Nobuyuki Abe, am willing to be your partner."

Nobuyuki Abe held Ye Tufei's hand, sighed from the bottom of his heart, and then said to Zhao Ming: "Mr. Zhao, my good friend, this is the most precious gift you have given me, I have nothing to reciprocate, I can only talk to Mr. Zhao about some stories of Prime Minister Minai!" ”

Nobuyuki Abe's words made Zhao Ming excited. The so-called story of Mitsumasa Minei actually means to tell Zhao Ming that he is going to tell Zhao Ming some of Mitsumasa's political ideas, which are secrets of secrecy, and with Nobuyuki Abe's explanation, Zhao Ming will be very clear about Mitsumasa's attitude towards the new government, and he can have a target, and finally get the full support of the Minai cabinet.

The new government has finally completed its preparations, and the new government can finally be successfully established!

Although Zhao Ming's face was still calm, he had already shouted in his heart.
