Outside the nickname, there was a murder in the public concession, and dozens of Japanese soldiers died. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Hearing the news, many people immediately flocked to the newsboy, took out the copper plate on his body to buy the newspaper. In just a few minutes, the big stack on the back of the newsboy was sold clean. And the person who finally bought the newspaper found that he couldn't leave, because he was surrounded by people.

"For your old man, hurry up and read something."

The men said with smiling faces.

The man with the newspaper in his hand gestured embarrassedly

"Such a long paragraph, I have to read it to the Year of the Monkey!"

"Why don't we go to the teahouse."

Hearing this, a group of people poured into the teahouse next to them and sat down. At this time, the storyteller was talking about the Three Kingdoms, but after getting twenty copper plates, he read the contents of the newspaper.

"It is reported that at about 9 o'clock yesterday night, a murder case occurred in a house in the public concession, and many men died on the spot.......

After reading "Dangdang" for half an hour, the contents of the newspaper were finished, and the people in the teahouse immediately made a discussion.

"It's a bad thing done by the Japanese again, the army actually kills people in the public concession, and the British don't care?"

"But no, these brutes are getting worse and worse, and it's just a bloody storm in the Japanese concession, and now even the public concession is making murders."

"So a thunderbolt to kill these bastards? Everyone, don't sit still, I heard that the sufferer is making trouble at the gate of the Ministry of Industry, so let's go and make a scene. ”

Just when there was a lot of discussion among the people, an emergency meeting was also held in the Ministry of Industry of the British Concession.

"It's too much, the Public Concession is under the jurisdiction of the British Ministry of Works, and only the British army has the right to shoot. Now the Japanese soldiers have killed more than 20 people on the street, and now those family members are blocking the door and crying, if not properly resolved, it will have a very negative impact. ”

"During the Anglo-Japanese Alliance, we gave the Japanese army the right of passage, but it did not mean that they had the right of military action. Now that the Anglo-Japanese alliance has been abolished, I demand that the right of passage for the Japanese army be withdrawn. ”

"It's not once or twice that the Japanese people have made trouble in the public concession, and their gendarmes often come in and arrest people, and if we don't shoot and kill people, we can pretend not to know, but to kill dozens of people is to show contempt for the British Empire. And this time it involves Jinbo Company, if it is not properly resolved, our losses will be great. ”

The director of the Ministry of Industry pondered for a moment and said:

"Jinbo Company protested early this morning, and this time it was one of their engineers who was killed, and he had very advanced mechanical skills. Gentlemen, the Public Concession is under the jurisdiction of our British Ministry of Works, and the Japanese must give an explanation and must give compensation. John, you go to Jinbo Company, and they must also be compensated for this matter. ”

However, this remark has aroused doubts among some people.

"Mr. Director, isn't this too much to promote Jinbo Company?"

The Director shook his head.

"They have a lot of money in the Bank of Scotland, and if anything happens, it will cause me and you a lot of problems."

A Huaxia company with 100,000 pounds in deposits with the Royal Bank of Scotland was enough to attract the attention of the British government. Even if you don't take these into account, there will be a lot of money in the tariffs of import and export trade, and if the other party goes to the French Concession, the loss will be great.

Thinking of this, the director said:

"Contact the consul of the Japanese state in Tianjin, at two o'clock this afternoon, I must get a reasonable explanation, and compensation must also be put on the agenda."

At this time, there was also chaos in the Japanese consulate in Tianjin.

"Red deer, what the hell is going on? Why did the gendarmerie run to the public concession? General, why do your soldiers kill innocents indiscriminately in the streets? ”

The consul yelled as he slapped the table.

But the head of the gendarmerie replied in an arrogant tone:

"We don't need to explain to you what our gendarmerie does, but I ask the British Ministry of Industry to hand over the murderer, otherwise I will take someone to take revenge in person!"

The consul's nose was crooked.

"Are you a stupid pig? Have you not read the Four-Power Convention after coming to Tianjin for so long? Now it's the people of the army who shoot in the public concession and kill a lot of people, if we don't give a reasonable explanation, it's a diplomatic matter, don't you understand? ”

Seeing that the leader of the gendarmerie was still shouting, Lieutenant General Koizumi Liuyi, commander of the North China Garrison Army, shouted:

"Shut up, we came to the consulate to discuss the aftermath, not to start a war with the British!"

"Hey!"

The head of the gendarmerie immediately stood up and shouted.

Koizumi asked with a smile:

"Your Excellency, what shall we do now?"

The consul glanced at them and said coldly:

"Apologies and compensation, only by doing so can the dispute be settled as soon as possible. If it drags on for a long time, it will rise to the national level, and then we will lose more benefits. ”

Koizumi nodded his head.

"I'm giving you trouble this time."

With that, he took the head of the gendarmerie out of the consular office.

"Your Excellency, why do you ...... to those British?"

"Smack!"

Before he finished his words, he was slapped in the face.

"You're going to go back to your home country and transfer to the reserves!"

Koizumi left without looking back after speaking.

In Jinbo Company, Zhong Cheng put down the booklet in his hand and showed a panicked look on his face.

"It's good that the book was taken back, otherwise it would have been in trouble."

Qin Lang asked coldly:

"How did he know the structure of the gun, I looked at it, and with a little deduction, I can get the internal structure of the new rifle and submachine gun."

Zhong Cheng said with a guilty face:

"They are all classmates who get along day and night, and sometimes they will show their mouths if they are not careful, and it is not difficult to get results after accumulation. Besides, Yang Zhiying is also an experienced person, and he can deduce some details of the new gun on this basis. ”

Qin Lang nodded and said:

"Zhong Cheng, you must strengthen your sense of confidentiality and don't have such a thing happening again. I originally wanted you to take the train to Zhangjiakou, but now it can't be done. Immediately you set off in a car without a little further delay. ”

Looking at Zhong Cheng's figure leaving in a hurry, Qin Lang sighed slightly.

A big reason why they like to use the people they cultivate slowly is that in management, as long as there is a little doubt, they can be replaced without hesitation.

And those who join halfway have a lot of scruples, and a careless will bring bad comments about crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. For example, this time the Yang Zhiying incident, although it has aroused suspicion, how to deal with it must be quite cautious. After all, he is Liu Qingen's tall foot, and if he is a little reckless, I am afraid that the entire design team will have to split.

Thinking of this, Qin Lang said with some emotion:

"There is still a shortage of people!"
