Chapter 113 Jiāo Yi (I) (Ask for a monthly pass!) Read! ）

May 20th, Sunday, summer is approaching, although Washington, D.C. still has a hint of evening chūn coolness, but in the streets of Washington, you can already see the nv people in summer skirts, the love of beauty has been around since ancient times, in Washington, a place where politicians gather, naturally there are many jiāo jihuā, these beautiful, charming nv people, not to mention that summer is approaching now, even in the winter wind and snow, it does not prevent them from wearing xìng dresses, Wandering among politicians, selling nòng in their own style.

Any place where politicians gather is destined to be a place full of jiāo and the ugliest side of the world, Washington...... The capital of this self-proclaimed democratic country is also inevitable, where the "political jiāoyi" and "power and wealth jiāoyi" are by no means inferior to any other country in the world, and politicians with big bellies and suits and leather shoes ride luxury cars in and out of Washington's high-end hotels, high-end clubs, and high-end casinos, accompanied by beautiful and charming jiāojihuā, sipping dozens of dollars a glass of wine, and embracing the beauty that will pour everyone away. Lobbyists from big business talk and laugh.

And in the process of talking and laughing, the people's public power is in jiāoyi, this kind of "power and wealth jiāoyi" anyone with a little conscience will hate the pain, but for the foreign officials gathered in Washington, there may be no better place than Washington, where all lobbying is carried out openly, there is no counterintelligence agency in this country, there is no need to worry about the interference of the secret police, lobbying is protected by the law, of course, as for what is the "sharp weapon" of lobbying, I'm afraid only jiāo and Yi will understand. Founded in 1850, the Verard Hotel is the oldest and most prestigious hotel in Washington. In the past month or so, Kentaro Kaneko has been using the Villard Hotel as his base camp, squandering a large amount of dollars, and using all means to lobby politicians in Washington who "have their bellies full of black gold."

Today in the banquet hall of the Verard Hotel, a large party is being held, many of the participants are Washington politicians and celebrities, and the laughter of men and NV people rang out from time to time amid the sound of relaxed music, and Kentaro Kaneko, who was wearing a tuxedo evening dress, kept wandering in the middle of the crowd.

For Kentaro Kaneko, who is in the United States, the most important thing at this time is no longer to ask Roosevelt to act as a mediator between Japan and Russia.

“…… I don't want to dwell on how I felt at that time, but when I think of my compatriots fighting in Korea, it is a great spur to me. What I am doing here is exactly what I do as a Japanese person. Unfortunately, I was struggling with not knowing what I could do to change the partiality of most Americans towards the Chinese and Russians, and I couldn't hold back tears in my eyes in the dead of night. ”

In front of his classmates, Kentaro Kaneko, who had tears in his eyes, tried to play the "emotional card", his depressed and unhappy appearance won the understanding of his old classmates, and when he turned his face to face others, what would Kentaro Kaneko say.

"Anger is an inevitable consequence, but in the end, the Japanese law proves to everyone that when the behavior of the people violates the law, we will use the law to punish those people."

As an "America expert", Kaneko Kentaro naturally knew how to convince these Americans that the "burning incident" was nothing more than a "xiǎoxiǎo incident that did not deserve attention", but now Kaneko Kentaro was secretly glad that there was "help from the United States".

"Gentlemen, NV Gentlemen"

Standing in front of the microphone in front of the band, Kentaro Kaneko, when he spoke, he looked at the microphone, and felt inexplicably proud in his heart, the Chinese character pinyin on the microphone of "Gao Le" fully explains its source, this is an invention from China, to be precise, the combination of the amplification electric horn invented in China and Edison's carbon jīng microphone has the current "amplification equipment", and it is with this amplification equipment to stir up the anti-Chinese sentiment of Americans.

"When I read the newspaper today, I noticed that there were two ships of American cotton huā, stranded in the harbor because the dock workers refused to carry them",

As soon as Kentaro Kaneko's voice fell, those present immediately understood what he was referring to, referring to the ongoing "boycott of American goods" in Shanghai, China.

“…… It is hard to imagine how a country and a nation that do not know how to be grateful can stand in this world, and countless people, including myself, have condemned the burning incident that occurred in Tokyo against foreigners, and I have sent telegrams to China on many occasions demanding the arrest and trial of those Japanese who participated in the burning incident under the pretext that "the United States helped China obtain Taiwan." In the conflict between Japan and China, the United States' support for China should be said to be obvious to all, and it is disappointing."

At this point, Kentaro Kaneko shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and at the same time looked at the American in front of him seriously.

"However, at a time when the United States is not hesitating to cancel loans to Japan as a weapon in order to help China obtain peace terms that are in line with China's interests at the expense of Japan's interests, in China, those Chinese who have taken advantage of this conflict because of the help of the United States are brewing a commercial boycott against the United States."

Hearing Kentaro Kaneko's ears in the banquet hall, he secretly sneered in his heart, weapons are sometimes provided by the enemy, the Chinese Exclusion Act.

Roosevelt thought that he would mediate the Sino-Japanese conflict and let the Chinese take advantage of it, and the Chinese would feel it, but the Chinese and the American president thought completely opposite. Roosevelt saw the triumph of the outer jiāo, and in the eyes of the Chinese, there was only the exclusion of Chinese from across the ocean.

The Chinese Exclusion Act for the Americans began in 1882 and has been in 1905 for more than 20 years. At first, the misfortunes of the Chinese in the Americas did not cause a strong backlash from the Chinese on the other side of the ocean.

In the past, the Qing government also wishfully believed that the Chinese Exclusion Act only restricted Chinese workers, not prohibited Chinese in other statuses, because the US government had guaranteed to give the most favored national treatment to Chinese who were already legally residing in the United States.

However, when the situation developed, not only were the Chinese workers ostracized, but the high-class Chinese were also repeatedly harassed and insulted. Two years ago, Tan Jinyong, China's military attache to the United States, committed suicide after being insulted by San Francisco police. As the news spread, it was difficult for the Chinese, especially the intellectuals, to regard the exclusion of Chinese workers in the United States as the immigrants' own business. Especially last year, Roosevelt, who was facing a general election, expressed his approval for Congress to enact a new Chinese exclusion bill in order to win the support of the West.

In the eyes of the Chinese, it was the rash behavior of the American president that pushed them to the brink of anger. Since then, China has been brewing a boycott of the United States, and if properly linked, all the United States sees is China's "lack of gratitude."

Jin Zijian cast his eyes on the dozen or so reporters in the banquet hall, they were all the reporters he had invited, and they were the most effective chroniclers of current affairs sent by the major newspapers, and he even prepared $500 in cash for each of them for this "performance".

In Kentaro Kaneko's speech, he kept holding Chinese newspapers to explain how the Chinese had riskily "used" the American government and President Roosevelt's desire for peace to end the "war of speculation" before the exhausted Japanese army regrouped, and at home with other "bizarre" excuses to brew a boycott of American goods in order to "put pressure" on the United States.

"Clever tongue"

Wren, who was holding a champagne glass, listened to Kentaro Kaneko's speech, and then turned his head to Shells beside him and said.

"The words of the envoy of gold remind me of such a sentence."

"Well, who would have thought that Washington, far away on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, would become the home of Sino-Japanese relations?"

Sherce was incredulous and excited, for he saw this as one of America's greatest foreign victories, and that the United States was gradually increasing its influence on the world stage, and was playing a more important role, a role that even Britain, a country with traditional influence in the Far East, could match.

"Mr. Special Envoy, your speech is really too jīng彩"

When Kentaro Kaneko, who had finished his speech, walked towards him, Wren hurriedly put the champagne glass on the waiter's tray and walked over to him.

"Thank you, Senator Wren, for just telling the truth to good Americans in my speech"

Kentaro Kaneko said to Wren with a smile on his face.

"Your Excellency, I think your speech today will be on the front page of the Washington Times tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Mr. Sherth, what do you think?" ,

Wren, who turned to Shears, a well-known current affairs correspondent for The Washington Times, asked,

"I want to ......"

Thinking of the $500 in cash in the envelope in his pocket, Sherce hesitated.

"Personally, I very much agree, but in the end it will be up to the editor-in-chief to approve the content of the front page"

The Washington Times receives $5,000 in "advertising fees" from the Chinese embassy every week, and in return the editor-in-chief will not risk losing a "big client" to offend them.

"However, I can at least guarantee that your speech today will be on the main pages of the Washington Times in the next two days."

In the face of Shelsi's gentle words, because he knew the "tricks" of the Chinese, Kaneko Kentaro could understand his difficulties.

"Thank you, Mr. Shears, and have a great time."

After thanking him, Kentaro Kaneko turned to Wren.

"Mr. Senator, can you take a step to speak?"

"Of course"

After grabbing another glass of champagne from the waiter's tray, Wren and Kentaro Kaneko walked towards the next door to a xiǎo smoking room, a small smoking room for men who smoked, and two Japanese men standing outside the mén, where in fact many of the "lobbying" took place in this xiǎoxiǎo smoking room.

"Mr. Senator, if you can oppose the return of Geng's money in the Senate and sponsor Chinese students, then you will undoubtedly win the support of your voters, and I think this is also their voice."

In the smoking room, facing Senator Rennes from California, Kentaro Kaneko said with a smile that when the Chinese boycott American goods, the "appropriate" response made by the United States can always stab the people of that country, thereby making China's anti-American consciousness more jī, which is exactly what Japan needs.

"Of course, listening to the voices of the electorate has always been my duty and obligation"

Wren did not refuse, nor did he veto, but when he spoke, he seemed to absent-mindedly shake the champagne in the glass, maybe there would really be some change in taste because of his shaking.

The senator's demeanor was seen in the eyes of Kentaro Kaneko, and he understood what this "greedy féi pig" needed,

"Of course, it is the senator's duty to listen to the voice of the people"

In addition to agreeing, Kaneko Kentaro immediately threw out a gift that he had prepared for a long time.

"I have a friend who is Californian and of course Japanese"

When Kentaro Kaneko spoke, Wren pricked up his ears, he knew that his "gift" was slowly flying over with wings, this may be the most wonderful thing about being a senator, wealth, NV people will always rush to your side desperately, and it was also when he received the gift for the first time that he understood why his father would support his senatorial candidacy regardless of everything.

Especially after becoming the leader of the senators in the western region, his wealth has increased even more geometrically, which is the benefit of power.

"He's been in the U.S. for forty years"

Frowning slightly, Wren didn't know what it had to do with him.

"During his forty years in the United States, he worked hard to develop his own industry, Mr. Rayne, but he did not return to Japan for a long time."

"People get homesick"

Slowly, Wren understood what kind of gift Kentaro Kaneko wanted to give him.

"yes"

Kentaro Kaneko nodded.

"So, he was going to go back to Japan to settle down, but his property needed to be dealt with, but he never found a suitable candidate."

"Oh"

Looking up at Kentaro Kaneko, a smile appeared on Rayne's face.

"It's easy to get in touch with economic people in California"

"But there aren't many people to trust, Mr. Wren, can you introduce him to an economist?"

At the same time as making the request, Kaneko Kentaro took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and at the same time spread it out in front of Wren, this is a title deed, just a glance, Wren's eyelids jumped, he knew this land, because this land is not someone else's, but his own, sold to a Japanese American for a high price of $50,000 a week ago.

"Mr. Senator, I think he needs an economist to draw up a new contract for himself"
