Chapter 245: Amnesiac Shenzhen-Hong Kong Taipan (3)
In the area around Han Shengtai's Wudao Sword Museum, in addition to the Window of the World and the Folk Culture Village, there are also a number of modern tourist attractions such as the Huaxia Art Center, the Overseas Chinese Town Sports Center, the Creative Culture Park, and the Happy Valley.
It is the night of spring, the OCT is brightly lit and colorful, and you can see any corner of the city, there are tourists like weaving, bathed in the humid sea breeze of Shenzhen Bay.
Han Shengtai, Hua Nianping, Li Li, and his sister Han Shengmei, several people ate seafood barbecue, and invited everyone to visit his Wudao Sword Museum.
When the elevator rises to the fifth floor, you will be greeted by a Japanese-style decoration, and you can hear the crisp sound of "crackling" sword strikes and the sharp shouts of the students who suddenly burst out.
Among several people, Li Li drank the most tonight, in addition to the Hennessy XO with two tall glasses, she also drank a few more bottles of beer with Han Shengtai.
She shouted that when she was in Sri Lanka, she had concentrated on learning foil for a few months, and she must ask Han Shengtai to find a coach to come over and compete.
Han Shengtai was happy to see Li Li's interest, and immediately ordered someone to take her to the locker room to change her clothes, and then invited a Japanese coach.
It's just that the coach is sitting cross-legged in a wheelchair.
After a while, when Li Li came out with a sword in full uniform, wearing a professional white fencing suit, wearing face protection and gloves, she came out with great interest, but when she saw that her opponent was actually a half-short paralytic, she was suddenly a little unhappy.
"Shengtai, you are underestimating me!"
Li Li shouted.
Han Shengtai smiled but did not speak.
The Japanese coach heard the contempt for himself from Li Li's words, but he didn't seem to care.
I saw that he first stretched his neck, bowed deeply to Li Li, and then shouted "Haiyi", reminding: "Please Miss be on guard, Mizoguchi Shunji is going to attack!" β
It turned out that this Japanese coach who was paralyzed in a wheelchair was named Shunji Mizoguchi.
Li Li was frightened by the sudden "Haiyi" from the Chinese people on this day, and took a few steps back, realizing that the comer was not good, and hurriedly opened a posture to prepare for defense.
"Hai" is an indispensable opening cry for almost all Japanese people in various competitions.
Hua Nianping and Han Shengmei really didn't expect that although this Mizoguchi Shunji was paralyzed in a wheelchair, he could jump freely, advance and retreat and rotate effortlessly, and swung his sword at Li Li like rain.
Within two minutes, the electric referee on her fencing suit lit up several times, even though Li Li was jumping around.
"How can Miss just defend and not attack!"
Shunji Mizoguchi shouted loudly.
When Li Li heard this, she couldn't help but arouse a fierce anger in her heart, and no matter how many times her fencing suit would be poked by Mizoguchi Toshio, she just threw herself at him one by one. But after fighting back and forth for dozens of rounds, it turned out that a sword did not stab the opponent.
It wasn't until she finally lost her physical strength, leaned on the floor weakly, took off her face protection, and panted profusely with sweat, that she could say a word to Mizoguchi Shunji: "Convinced, master!" β
When Li Li changed back into her clothes, Han Shengtai led a few people to the reception room to rest temporarily, and went to Zhang Luo's day-style tea ceremony by himself.
The setting of the reception room is simple and elegant. There is a tea stove in the center, and there are several low sofas and cushions around it, which has the taste of a Japanese tea room.
But Hua Nianping noticed that a very eye-catching frame was inlaid on the front wall of the house, and a glass cover was used to protect it from the invasion of dust.
Inside the frame, a delicate old-fashioned cane slanted from sandalwood is a deep purple-black color. The handle at the top of the cane is shiny and shiny, as if it was cast from sterling silver, and there is a round copper ring hanging from it. The bottom of the cane is one centimeter long, and it is made of steel, which is very strong and durable.
Hua Nianping judged that this cane is very similar to Mr. Zhongshan's back then, the kind of identity symbol that accompanied him in the shadow, precipitated many years of historical stories, and must belong to Han Shengtai's rare and precious treasure in the Wudao Sword Museum.
After a while, Han Shengtai led a female tea master in a Japanese kimono in. Shunji Mizoguchi also accepted his invitation and came over to enjoy tea with him.
In Japan, the tea ceremony is a self-cultivation and noble art, with a complete set of charcoal fire, boiling water, tea brewing and tea tasting procedures.
Li Li took this opportunity to offer tea to Shunji Mizoguchi, and asked for the essentials of foil very seriously, saying that the person who took her to practice fencing in Sri Lanka was a famous coach from the United Kingdom.
"What is the British coach, Mr. Mizoguchi in front of us, but in the international epee competition, he has won the title of Paralympic runner-up!" "But even though he was the runner-up, he was also the first placer." β
"If you win the first place, how can you be the runner-up?" Han Shengmei was surprised.
"It's tragic." Han Shengtai said, "Because in the championship and runner-up competition of that epee competition, Mr. Mizoguchi's sword was too violent, and after the opponent hit one after another, he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood when he was only halfway through the event, and died unexpectedly on the spot." β
He added, "Mr. Mizoguchi was so ashamed of this that he took the initiative to retire to the runner-up and gave the title of champion to the deceased. β
After listening to Han Shengtai's thrilling description, Hua Nianping, Han Shengmei and Li Li were all embarrassed, and their hearts increased their admiration for Mizoguchi Shunji.
Han Shengtai also introduced that in his five-way sword hall, although Mizoguchi Shunji is a paralyzed person who sits in a wheelchair all the year round, he is proficient in kendo, archery, cane, aikido, and Iaido, and is an all-round coach.
"When I'm done with this while, I'll definitely come over and worship Mizoguchi-san as a teacher!"
Li Li said.
"Brother Nianping, I hope you can find time to come with Sister Li Li." Han Shengtai sent an invitation to Hua Nianping, "This is not only a martial arts technique, but also conducive to self-cultivation and fitness. β
"I'm afraid my physical condition is very inappropriate." Hua Nianping shook his head and refused.
"Mr. Mizoguchi is half paralyzed, he is worse than you, why be ashamed of himself." Han Shengmei persuaded, "It just so happens that Sister Li Li can come with you." β
"Why do you want me to accompany you?" Li Li hurriedly waved her hand and said to Han Shengmei, "You and Nianping are destined to be a couple, and it is Shengmei's responsibility to take care of him anytime and anywhere." β
She followed and smiled deliberately, "Besides, in the past two days, Tan Qidart has always called him, and he is expected to find him soon, I don't want him to have any misunderstanding." β
"Tan Qidart," Hua Nianping looked at Li Li in surprise, and immediately thought of the thin man with a sharp face who had dinner together at noon. "You and him?"
"Tan Qidart is my fiancΓ©!" Li Li replied bluntly.
"Didn't you say that you and he have been broken up for years?" Han Shengmei stared at Li Li suspiciously, unable to believe that what she said would be the truth.
Many years ago, in order to rely on Tan Qidang's uncle's personnel relationship, Li Li was able to send her younger brother to work in the Zhongwan Engineering Bureau, a central enterprise, and accepted Tan Qidart's emotional pursuit, and lived an intermittent life of cohabitation with him in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and other places.
Later, when he learned that the two of them broke up completely due to discord, Han Xichengcai hired Li Li back to Walter Group and became the company's financial director.
"I was in Hong Kong and Kowloon at noon today, and I had dinner at the same table with this big brother Tan. He is a friend of Mr. Li Zhiyue, and the two seem to have a deep relationship. β
Hua Nianping said.
Now, since she heard Li Li say that Tan Qidart was actually her boyfriend, she immediately changed her name to "Brother Tan" to show her cordiality and respect.
"Li Zhiyue?" Han Shengmei thoughtfully reminded Hua Nianping, "I heard that he is a radical figure in Hong Kong and Kowloon, and he is good at demagogizing students. β
Hua Nianping suddenly "chuckled" in his heart, thinking that fortunately, in the letter of intent signed in the afternoon, he only agreed to transfer one-third of the equity of the "New Sun and Moon" electronic newspaper to Li Zhiyue.
Li Li also revealed to Hua Nianping that Zhu Shangdart and Li Zhiyue had a relationship for a long time, and she also accompanied his boss Lu Zhichao in the United States with Zhu Shangdart, and had dinner with Li Zhiyue several times.
Lu Zhichao!
Hua Nianping remembered that at noon, Li Zhiyue once said this name, and he was a Chinese American in Sanlan City.
β¦β¦
Sure enough, Li Li said that Tan Qidart rushed back to Shenzhen from Hong Kong and Kowloon early the next morning and appeared in Hua Nianping's office.
"Hello, Shenzhen-Hong Kong Taipan!"
He greeted Hua Nianping flatteringly at the door.
"Brother Tan, please come in!"
Hua Nianping immediately welcomed Tan Qidart to the sofa and sat down, and poured water and made tea himself.
"Is he really having amnesia, or is he deliberately disguising himself?"
Tan Qidart was suspicious. Hua Nianping's politeness and enthusiasm made him feel uneasy, as if he was completely confused.
"You're here to see Director Li Li!" Hua Nianping said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, she went to Guangzhou overnight yesterday." β
"Stinky woman, I didn't expect to let her hide again."
Tan Qidart scolded Li Li in his heart, thinking that he couldn't get his lockbox back today.
But on his face, Xiang Hua Nianping smiled, and he didn't mind, "Ah, of course I know." She had already informed me yesterday afternoon that she would have time to meet me in Guangzhou this afternoon. β
Hua Nianping knew that this was Tan Qidart's obvious nonsense.
Because when he came out of Han Shengtai's Five Dao Sword Pavilion last night, it was already more than zero hour. Li Li suddenly came up with an urgent idea, intending to contact Xiaoqin immediately, and the two took the night train to Guangzhou.
She plans to get back the credit rating report of the Bao'an bottling plant when she first starts working at an asset appraisal company, and then quickly return to Shenzhen by noon to avoid delays in preparing the information to the financing institution.
Hua Nianping couldn't figure out why Tan Qidart deliberately lied at this time, feeling that it was not convenient to poke him in front of him immediately, nor could he reveal Li Li's whereabouts.
"Chairman Hua, Secretary Hua, I actually came to Walt Company today to meet you, a Shenzhen-Hong Kong classmate."
Tan Qidart deliberately bit the words "Chairman Hua and Secretary Hua" very hard.
He observed Hua Nianping's reaction.
"Ah, where did Brother Tan hear about it?" Hua Nianping said embarrassedly, "Walter Group has just established a branch, and everyone saw that there was an organized identity record in my previous file, and temporarily elected me to act as the branch secretary. β
Tan Qidart groaned bitterly in his heart, but he didn't expect it to be crooked.
"Besides, I'm not the chairman, let alone call out the Shenzhen-Hong Kong class." Hua Nianping said again, "Just call me Brother Nianping!" β
"Yes, yes!"
Tan Qidart had no choice but to nod again and again.
