Joint cruises are not possible, but the resumption of frozen Sino-Japanese relations is something that Japan particularly wants to see. Many Japanese military officers who are still in the Fantasy Continent feel that this is a good opportunity to infiltrate China, and even Nagata Tetsuyama feels that if Sino-Japanese relations are normalized, it will greatly boost Japan's exports and allow Japan to quickly recover from the earthquake.

Although everyone is skeptical of Yang Qiu's overtures, it is worth trying as long as there is a glimmer of opportunity for Japan, which is broken and broken. What's more, the Japanese Navy is working hard to raise 200 million yen to renovate six battle cruisers, and it is even more impossible to ignore this big pie, even if it is poisonous, it must be eaten first to solve the urgent need. In the end, when Zheng Zuyi said that he was only a soldier and did not interfere in politics, the Japanese government immediately notified the representatives of the Kuomintang who were originally sitting on the cold bench in Tokyo, informing Japan of its support for the Chinese Navy's action to protect overseas Chinese in the South Seas.

This result greatly encouraged the Kuomintang Party, which was responsible for foreign affairs for the first time, and Hu Hanmin rushed to the Governor's Palace of Batavia overnight to demand that the British and Dutch withdraw their troops, compensate the Chinese for their losses, and give the Chinese in West Borneo autonomy.

Britain has not yet responded, and the Netherlands will not agree, so it has also rejected the demand for autonomy outright. Because Batavia knows that once this opening is opened, I am afraid it will bring a terrible chain reaction!

As the standoff and mediation on the sidelines of West Borneo rage, the East Indies themselves are quietly changing.

Makassar, a free port in the south of Sulawesi. At the beginning of the 16th century, it was the largest trading center in the entire East Indies and the largest city on the islands of the South Seas, but the Dutch gradually took control of the East Indies after the Dutch won the competition. The center of the economy began to shift to Batavia, where its status also began to decline.

The East Indies have been booming again in the past two years after the discovery of the Minas Super Oil field by the Chinese Gulf Oil Company and continued exploration in the nearby area. In addition to the traditional countries of Britain, the United States, France and the Netherlands, China and Japan have also begun to intensify their resource exploration efforts in the South Sea, and even Portugal has sent oil exploration teams to fantasize about the explosion of a world-class oil field in East Timor, which they control.

When there are more people, there will be more conflicts. The crisis in West Borneo is but a small escalation of contradictions.

Because the Chinese Navy and the British Far East Fleet faced off against Borneo and the South China Sea, and even Batavia and the Strait of Malacca saw warships chasing each other, many ships came to Makassar east of Borneo to rest and recuperate. In order not to damage the fish pond, a large number of merchants from all over the world poured in, causing the place to be extremely prosperous.

After Dai Yunong got off the ship. I immediately felt like I was back in my childhood Shanghai. There are low, dilapidated shacks with no sanitation facilities everywhere, and children roll naked in the mud in the slums. Under the dense trees, on the corner of the street, the porch with a Japanese signboard is full of Japanese prostitutes dressed in kimonos. Zhuang Meisheng, who was familiar with him during this time, pushed his shoulder affectionately after seeing this: "Yu Nong hasn't tasted the taste of Japanese ladies yet, right?" Don't look at these Japanese women who don't look very good, but the commotion on the bed is terrible. ”

Young people don't have any fancy intestines, and Dai Yunong is no exception, but no matter how much he thinks about women, he can't look down on these Japanese prostitutes, so he just thinks it's strange: "Brother Zhuang, why are there so many Japanese women here?" ”

"Many? Ha ha. Zhuang Meisheng laughed: "My brother Yu Nong." That's not too much! Batavia and Luzon are much more than here. To say that this is also the credit of the vice president, since Japan was beaten down by us, there is a huge shortage of money in the country, so more women are sent here to work as prostitutes. I heard from the brothers below that this sea is all over the place. There are two million Japanese bitches if not three million. He pointed to a ronin in the distance who was collecting money from a prostitute, and said disdainfully, "See?" These are all former Black Dragon Society, who came here after being kicked out of the Northeast, and brought women to be bitches, not to mention, but also confiscated the money and said that they wanted to support the country. Phew! The samurai, who had the face to say that he was the emperor, actually used the money in the crotch of a woman's pants. They deserve that Emperor Taisho is a fool. ”

When I knew that Japan had sent women all over the world since the Meiji era, there were many Japanese prostitutes in the Tohoku region and Shanghai in the early years, but I didn't expect there to be so many! Out of professional habits, he asked: "Does Brother Zhuang know how much money they send back every year?" ”

"I'll have to ask the Japanese government for details." Zhuang Meisheng shook his head, folded his fingers and estimated, "I'll give you a rough calculation." According to the brothers below, these Japanese prostitutes have to pick up customers at least 10 times a day, and they can earn about 20 yuan per month, or 160 yuan for 8 months a year. At present, there are millions of Japanese prostitutes in the Nanyang area, which is 160 million yuan a year. Excluding the expenses and what I get, at least more than half of it will be taken away by these ronins and sent back to China, which is 80 million yuan per year. ”

It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked! Dai Yunong was also taken aback by such a huge number, he didn't expect that selling prostitutes was such a big deal! And Zhuang Meisheng is still very conservative, because the foreigner sailors are very generous, and it is possible to add two or three percent.

Dai Yunong is very curious, these people in Haihua Company were all born in gangs in their early years, how could they not think of taking a share of this "big business"? Zhuang Meisheng shook his head and sighed: "Since Yunong calls me eldest brother, then I won't hide it from you." It's a lie to say that you don't want to make money in such a big business, but it's hard to make this money! Now there are the vast majority of people who have land in the country, and there are very few things to buy and sell children in the early years. I don't dare to say that I don't dare to use other means now! Last year alone, thousands of abductors (abductors of women and children) were shot across the country! Last time, someone in Luzon got a boat woman from Xiamen, guess what happened in the end? was directly blocked by the Coast Guard's gang of killers at sea and swept the deck with machine guns, and more than 30 brothers died! ”

In recent years, the crackdown on crime in China has been very vigorous, and thousands of serious offenders are shot dead every year. It is said that this is a stern request from the vice president, who feels that the treatment of felons must be harsh in order to have the effect of setting an example for all and establishing a good social atmosphere, not to mention that abducting women and children is one of the felonies that must be shot as long as they are convicted.

But I didn't let you fight the idea of the country! Dai Yunong crossed his eyes: "Brother Zhuang has a lot of relationships, so can't he go the way of Japan and get some women?" ”

Zhuang Meisheng continued to shake his head: "Yu Nong said it lightly. This road to wealth is the life and death line of Japan. There is simply no going to sell women to us to operate. In addition, they have a lot of women, and the price is very low, if we interfere, we will be squeezed to death by the low price, and at the worst, we will start fighting below. The brothers are not afraid, but in recent years, everyone has been used to the birthday, and these side doors have no heart to fish. ”

Dai Yunong was still thinking about the "big deal" in his heart, and suddenly remembered that there were many Russian refugees in the northwest. lowered his voice: "Brother Zhuang, what if I have a supply?" ”

"I said, Brother Dai, you have a great future, why do you have to take risks for a small amount of money? Anyway, I still have people here all the time. The president's wife also needs to be face-saving, and she doesn't dare to mess around. ”

Dai Yunong knew that he had misunderstood, and said with a smile: "What did Brother Zhuang say? No matter how confused Dai is, he will not beat his sister's idea. Isn't it that there are a lot of Russian refugees in the northwest? It is still possible to get a few thousand Russian women. Besides, this is also a good thing to hit Japan. Hearing that it was a Russian refugee from outside the northwest, Zhuang Meisheng's mind was alive. If it really criticizes the Great Ocean and Malaysia, wouldn't it not both hit Japan and make money? But he was still cautious and asked Dai Yunong to report to the higher-ups, so as not to get into trouble when he got it.

"We'll talk about it later, let's get down to business first." Dai Yunong is not a person who does not know the importance of the matter, so I put aside this matter and pulled Zhuang Meisheng into the warehouse area next to the harbor.

There are many Chinese businessmen in Makassar, and the heaviest in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are attracted by ebony. Ebony is expensive in the country. Especially in the Jiangnan area, half of the ebony produced here every year is snatched by Jiangsu and Zhejiang merchants.

The two soon found a two-story small building with a sign of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, and the young man on the first floor thought it was a big buyer from China, so he greeted him with a smile on his face, until Dai Yunong made a gesture. Only then did he suddenly realize that he would welcome the two of them to the second floor.

On the second floor, Zhuang Meisheng saw several men drinking tea and chatting, one of them was short in height but had a square face and thick eyebrows, and most of the people next to him were plain clothes, but one person was more strange and was actually wearing Muslim clothes.

"Come on. Let me introduce you. Seeing the square-faced man, Dai Yunong hurriedly pulled Zhuang Meisheng to introduce: "This is the Ma boss of the Gulf Oil Company, this is Manager Chen of Luzon Mining, this is." ”

Before the introduction was finished, Zhuang Meisheng's scalp exploded. The reputation of the Gulf Oil Company is too loud, just because people can get Yang Qiu's funding, and they also sent the navy to snatch food from the territory of Britain and the United States, you can see how big the snobbery is behind it. The others were all well-known Chinese tycoons in Nanyang, but the short, thin young man named Xiao Jinyun in Islamic clothes had never heard of him, but since he could sit here, he must be an extraordinary person.

"Sit down."

After Ma Kui beckoned the two to sit down, he poured tea himself before explaining his intentions: "Long story short. Let Yu Nong invite you Brother Zhuang to come because of the increasing pressure on Borneo, and the above means that we should immediately stir up the poor parties and guerrillas on the island of Java, and let the Dutch take care of themselves. Brother Zhuang, you have been in Nanyang for many years, and you are much more familiar than us half-tones, so you might as well talk about it. ”

Zhuang Meisheng knew that Yang Qiu would not hand over the power of negotiation to the Kuomintang so easily, and sure enough, he still had a backhand. Immediately said modestly: "It is not difficult to mobilize the poor party and guerrillas, these earth dogs are those who have an eye for money!" But what should I do after I start it? Those guerrillas who engaged in independence did not despise me, but even my brothers. ”

"Money is not an issue, I and I have raised $800,000 for the event and 5,000 Soviet-made revolvers and rifles," Marquee said. The key now is that the country will never bother with this matter, and the relationship will be cleared up when the time comes, so it must all depend on us people. ”

"Domestic care?" Zhuang Meisheng was a little surprised, could it be that Yang Qiu really wanted to let go of the Nanyang matter? But why incitement to Turkish independence? He didn't dare to ask in detail, and frowned: "I'm afraid this is a bit troublesome, even if those earth dogs are activated, I'm afraid it won't be suppressed in a few days." ”

"Brother Zhuang, don't worry, I have some brothers on my hands." The man named Xiao Jinyun in Islamic clothes suddenly interjected, and took out a photo from his pocket and put it in front of Zhuang Meisheng: "The thing now is that I need to connect with this person, and I can't arouse his suspicion!" ”

The photo is a handsome young man, and after Zhuang Meisheng looked at it for a long time, he suddenly remembered someone: "Isn't this the young man named Sukarno from the Surabaya YMCA?" ”

Ma Kui smiled: "Brother Zhuang is worthy of being Nanyangtong, and even this person is recognized." ”

"Don't laugh at me, sir, I've been here for a few more years." Zhuang Meisheng took the photo and gradually became serious: "This person is indeed an activist against Dutch colonization, and at the beginning of last month, he also published an article in the newspaper saying that he wanted to engage in a three-yuan policy, that is, to combine national autonomy, Islam and Marxism. ”

"Brother Zhuang just said it."

Zhuang Meisheng arched his hand to Ma Kui and the others, and said: "I don't know if Sukarno is good or not, but the religious alliance and the Javanese YMCA behind him are not good things!" In recent years, in order to raise funds for independence, it has harmed us Chinese! There are many things that are less virtuous than the Dutch! ”

Seeing that the more he talked, the more angry he became, Xiao Jinyun reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Zhuang, don't worry, let's just borrow it." ”

Zhuang Meisheng knew that he had gone too far, and this kind of national affairs was not something he could worry about, so he hurriedly nodded and returned to the topic: "Brother Xiao, don't worry, in the early years, I drove out a few unsuccessful brothers who converted to Islam. Although I don't usually communicate much, I can still talk when I have something. It's just Brother Xiao, your identity? ”

Ma Kui knew his thoughts, and laughed: "Meisheng can rest assured, Jin Yun's current identity is a member of the Malayan Youth Association, as for this dress, you can rest assured, he has suffered a lot to put on the clothes, and Commander Xiao didn't talk to the vice president about this." ”

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Commander Xiao that Ma Kui ordered made Zhuang Meisheng startled! The domestic surname Xiao is still the position of commander, who else is there besides Xiao Anguo, who is in charge of the National Guard for Yang Qiu to supervise the country? Thinking of his surname Xiao again, my heart suddenly sank! Hurriedly nodded: "Don't worry, everyone, I'll go and contact my brother." ”

Seeing that he was leaving, Xiao Jinyun suddenly grabbed him, and his eyes on his thin face suddenly lit up like cold stars: "There is something to ask Brother Zhuang." Yu Nong, these informants have been closely watched by Britain and France recently, so I want you to help kill someone for me. ”

"Who?"

"Dutchman, Marlin!" …… (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
