The king of the royal ryu was resolute, and he got a ticket to Yokohama in the afternoon of the same day, and went back to Tokyo to run the relationship, it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a while and a half, Yan Qingyu dominates the big mansion in Hongkou, and he drinks a little wine on the whole day, and he thinks that this thing is reliable, much stronger than being a snitch, and the money is faster than making a movie.

However, after careful calculation, I can't help but be depressed, this matter is too grandiose, how can two young people under the age of 30 monopolize the opium trade in the whole country, let alone the whole country, even Shanghai can't monopolize it.

Eat one bite at a time, the road has to go step by step, or first do the contact Chongqing things, Chen Zikun left the contact information when he left Shanghai, Yan Qingyu kept it in mind, went out to find his girlfriend Mary, and asked her to go to the newly declared newspaper to publish an advertisement, the content is that Mr. Hongkou Zhang has a batch of German original books to deal with, interested parties please call to negotiate, and leave a phone number behind.

The next day, Yan Qingyu scratched her ears and cheeks at home and waited for the phone, until noon, the phone rang, picked it up and listened, and the voice of Moxi Moxi came, it turned out that she was still looking for the king of the royal ryu.

Li Mansion, Li Yaoting played mahjong all night, got up at noon, went downstairs in a suit vest, and the servants bowed and saluted: "Good morning, master." ”

"Early." Li Yaoting went straight to the restaurant, there were newspapers and milk bread on the table, and while eating, he picked up the newspaper and flipped through it randomly, and the maid Zhang Ma who was waiting next to him was very puzzled, since a few months ago, the old man who had never read the newspaper suddenly ordered a "New Declaration" and his favorite thing was not current affairs, but advertising.

Suddenly, an advertisement came into view, Li Yaoting didn't eat, took the newspaper to the study, closed the door, called according to the number, and started a conversation.

"Find Mr. Zhang."

"What's the matter?"

"Buy books."

"Sold out."

"Is there a Russian version?"

"There's a French version."

An unnutritious conversation is a secret word for contact, in fact, Li Yaoting had already heard that the other party was Yan Qingyu, but he still pretended patiently, because Chen Zikun had explained that underground work should not be sloppy, and a little omission may cause sacrifice.

Naturally, important things could not be talked about on the phone, Li Yaoting and Yan Qingyu made an appointment to meet at a time and place, without bodyguards, they drove out alone, came to a Japanese temple in Hongkou, picked up Yan Qingyu, and drove on the road.

"Say, what's the matter, it's boring to do so much." Li Yaoting was very arrogant, Yan Qingyu entered the state, he felt that he had become a super spy, and he was woken up by a scoop of cold water, and said weakly: "I don't want to do this either, my brother-in-law confessed, it's like this, a Japanese named Takeo Imai wants to connect with the highest authorities in Chongqing through my brother-in-law......"

"That's it?"

"Also, I need manpower."

"Got it, get out of the car."

The car stopped, Li Yaoting walked away, Yan Qingyu was a little unhappy, this is very different from the imaginary espionage work, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a child playing at home, at this moment he doesn't know that his life has taken a huge turn from now on.

……

Chongqing, Chen Zikun is reading the Central Daily, today's major news is the fall of Poland, the Nazi German army and the Soviet army meeting in Brest, the European war situation is complicated, and there seems to be an increasingly fierce trend, which is not a good thing for China, which has been devastated by the Japanese invaders, Britain and France are busy dealing with Germany and have no energy to get involved in Asian affairs, and Japan will be even more unscrupulous.

The Soviet Union and Germany carved up Poland, which was as good as wearing a pair of pants, and signed a treaty with Japan, making it clear that they would sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, Britain and France were so anxious that they had no time to withdraw, the United States on the other side of the ocean is still exporting oil and scrap iron to Japan, half of China's mountains and rivers have fallen into the hands of the enemy, the elite army has been lost, weapons and ammunition are stretched, and if we can no longer obtain foreign aid, it is difficult to guarantee that the old thing of the Manchu Qing Dynasty entering the customs will not be repeated, and the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species is not far away.

There was a knock on the door of the study, and Liu Ting came in with a letter, which was a secret letter sent from Shanghai to Hong Kong, on the surface, it was an ordinary family letter, but the real content was written between the lines with an invisible potion, which had been developed at this time, Chen Zikun read it at a glance and asked Liu Ting: "What do you think?" ”

Liu Ting said: "The Japanese are eager to support Wang Jingwei, indicating that they are not willing to continue to sink into the mud and consume the army, after all, their ultimate goal is not only China, according to Prime Minister Konoe, it is to establish the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and now they have taken North Korea and most of China, originally intended to go north to seize Siberia, but after Normenhan hit a wall, they will probably develop southward, seize Indochina, the Philippines, Malaya, Singapore and other places, and directly challenge the British and American spheres of influence, if my guess is true, Then they will have to digest China as soon as possible and reach a peace agreement. ”

Chen Zikun said: "The war between China and Japan is endless, but the logic of the Japanese is really strange, how can they think that Chongqing will negotiate peace?" ”

Liu Ting said: "Wang Jingwei has set a very bad example, making the Japanese think that there is no shortage of such political speculators in China, I think it is better to get in touch with it, understand the mentality of the Japanese high-level, it is very beneficial to our decision-making, of course, this matter must be kept highly confidential, otherwise it will be known, and the crime of a traitor will not be inseparable." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Do you want to report to Chairman Jiang?" ”

Liu Ting shook her head: "It's better to make sure it's true before reporting it." ”

Chan asked Liu Ting to write a reply, agreeing to meet with the Japanese representative in Hong Kong, a neutral area, and MeSign still transferred it to Shanghai through Hong Kong.

At this time, the king of Ryūo had returned from Tokyo, and Yan Qingyu took him to a hotel, where there were eight big men in the room, dressed in peaked hats and tweed suits.

"This is our man." Yan Qingyu introduced.

The eight rascals nodded and bowed, servile and kneeling.

The Imperial Ryu King took a thoughtful look at it, and the three of them puffed up their chests and made a very powerful posture.

"Yo Xi, disband." King Ryu waved his hand to let them out, and asked, "Yansang, the quality is too poor." ”

Yan Qingyu spread his hands and said: "No way, the first-class people have all gone to resist the Japanese, and the second- and third-rate ones have been recruited by No. 76, and it is our turn, we can only be fourth- and fifth-rate characters." ”

King Ryu was not entangled in this matter, he was concerned about the issue of opening up communication channels in Chongqing.

The day before yesterday in Tokyo, his father, who was a senior member of the House of Nobles, lost his temper and campaigned for Takeo Imai because of his military position.

"It's a shame that the people of the royal family are actually mixed up with those bastards in the military department, you were used as a gun, stupid boy." My father's words still ringed in my ears.

What my father said is not unreasonable, the Qiu Ba people in the military department don't take civilian officials seriously, the 226 mutiny, how many ministers did they kill, the royal family is a noble, but it is not comparable to the low-level samurai class of the army and navy.

But the king insisted on his opinion, he thought that in this turbulent era, the man should do a career, he said with tears in his eyes: "Father, don't you always think that your son is a playboy who has no interest, let your son make some achievements that you are proud of, please!" ”

The Viscount was moved by his son's courage and finally agreed to him, and also used his connections in the political circles to greet both the Xingya Academy and the headquarters of the base camp, which was equivalent to obtaining a Shang Fang sword for the imperial organs, and he had no scruples about acting from then on.

"Forget it, Yansang, is there an echo from Chongqing?" King Ryu's thoughts pulled back.

"Yes, my brother-in-law promised to meet with Takeo Imai in Hong Kong."

"Yo Xi, Yan Sang, you have a lot of credit."

……

A week later, at The Peninsula Hong Kong, Takeo Imai and Chan finally met.

Chen Zikun was dressed in a white suit and Panama straw hat, and he was suave, and Takeo Imai was dwarfed, but he also had a strong aura and could fight against each other, in order to prevent eavesdropping, the meeting was held in an outdoor tea room, and there were only two people in a huge tea room, and the guards in civilian clothes were far away and wandered around.

Takeo Imai seemed tired, his words were not as aggressive as the Japanese soldiers, and he spoke Chinese quite well, so there was no need for an interpreter to be present.

After some pleasantries, Takeo Imai took the initiative to mention his work: "Recently, I have been promoting the integration between the Wang regime and Wang Kemin in North China and Liang Hongzhi in Nanjing, and striving to establish a unified and friendly New China, which is friendly to Japan. ”

Takeo Imai talked eloquently and took the initiative to pick up the teapot to make tea for Chen Zikun: "I have learned the tea ceremony." ”

"Thank you." Chen Zikun took the teacup, "What do Imai-kun mean?" ”

"Peace talks." Takeo Imai said very solemnly, "If the war continues, it will not be beneficial to Japan and China, and the Japanese side is willing to sit down and negotiate seriously with the Chongqing authorities, and the first premise is to establish a communication channel, which is why General Chen was invited to Hong Kong." ”

Chen Zikun said: "I have no authority to represent the Chongqing authorities, the matter is serious, and I need to report before making a decision." ”

Takeo Imai said: "I understand, a good start is half the battle, and I hope that we can promote peace talks so that the people of Japan and China can share peace." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand.

Chan did not shake his hand.

"Looking forward to your reply." Takeo Imai bowed slightly and left alone.

……

Chen Zikun returned to Chongqing and immediately reported the matter to Chiang Kai-shek secretly.

Chiang Kai-shek said that he could make secret contacts with the Japanese side, but he had to ensure absolute secrecy.

"If it is known that we are negotiating peace with the Japanese side, the infamy of traitors will not be able to escape, I will not interfere in this matter, you and Dai Li will do it."

The military commander quickly intervened in this matter, and after discussion, it was decided that it would be better to deceive the other party by coming forward in the name of the Song family, and this person's identity does not necessarily need to be very high, but it must be very special, such as Song Meiling's younger brother......

Of course, it was impossible to really send Uncle Guo to deal with the Japanese spies, so the Military Command Bureau began to look for suitable candidates internally, and soon a person came into the sight of the high-level.

This person's name is Shen Kai, the current lieutenant confidential officer of the Military Command Communications Department, who looks very similar to Song Meiling's younger brother Song Ziliang, and is from a rich family and can speak Shanghainese, so it is perfect for him to play Song Ziliang.

Except for one point, the age does not correspond, Song Ziliang is already forty years old, but Shen Kai is only in his twenties.
