Chapter 586: Moody Fang Lang
Fang Lang and John sat cross-legged behind the low table, and the Japanese girl in a kimono knelt down beside the two of them very naturally and poured water for the two.
To be honest, being served by two Japanese girls in kimonos made Fang Lang's heart feel very satisfied.
Kodama Yushi and Shigemitsu Aoi, who followed the two into the room after them, saw the two who had already begun to enjoy the service of beautiful women, and quietly exchanged glances.
Relatively speaking, the younger Kodama Yushifu is obviously not as scheming as the cunning Shigemitsu Aoi, and after seeing that the two of them seem to just regard him as the wronged boss who is responsible for paying the bill, his face is very ugly.
But after noticing his face, Chongguang Aoi shook his head slightly at him without a trace. He even complimented John and Fang Lang:
"The two generals are really young and promising, and they are fierce, I don't know if they are satisfied with the service of a few girls, do we need to call a few more girls in?"
Fang Lang behaved in a profligate manner, both hands had been stretched into the kimonos on both sides to keep warm, but in fact, he was always observing the expressions of the two, so the interaction between them did not hide from his eyes, after hearing Chongguang Aoi's words, he didn't hear anything and didn't make any response.
However, John seemed to have just discovered that there was no girl by their side, and looked directly at Kodama Yushifu and said:
"Huh! Why is Mr. Kodama so gentle today, why don't you arrange a girl for herself and Mr. Shigemitsu? β
After hearing John's words, Kodama Yu Shifu couldn't wait to scold his mother, he prepared four girls, originally planned to have one for each person, but you two bastards directly hugged left and right, and took all four girls away, and now he pretended to be a good person, and turned his head and asked himself why he didn't arrange a girl for himself.
Of course, these can only be thought about in my heart, and I still squeezed out a flattering smile on my face and said:
"Colonel Clark blames me for my poor hospitality, and now I'll rearrange it."
After speaking, he raised his hands and patted his palms twice.
Soon there was a knock on the wooden sliding door, and then a mother-san, who was wearing a kimono and still had some charm, pushed open the wooden sliding door, knelt outside the door and bowed for a bow, and then asked inside:
"Welcome to a few guests, I'm Rika Suzuki, please take care of me!"
Kodama Yu Shifu waved his hand impatiently and said to the woman:
"Arrange for four more girls to come in, and inform the kitchen that you can start serving."
The woman did not raise her head when she heard this, and bowed respectfully again.
"Hey! Arrange it for your guests now! β
After saying that, he gently closed the door again. Soon, four girls in kimonos, who were also wearing kimonos, knocked on the door with small steps, and sat down very naturally next to Kodama Yushi and Shigemitsu Aoi.
I don't know if John was intentional or unintentional, the topic of the next time always revolved around Fengyue, Fang Lang noticed that Kodama Yushifu obviously wanted to communicate something with John, but whenever he threw the topic out, John always quietly moved the topic to other places. Obviously, it was aware that Kodama Yushifu had another purpose.
In this regard, Fang Lang naturally watched coldly, as if everything had nothing to do with him, and he only knew that he was immersed in his own gentle township.
And Chongguang Aoi on the side looked very indifferent, as if the things that Kodama Yushifu wanted to discuss with John had nothing to do with him, but Fang Lang found that the other party was not actually as indifferent as he appeared from the eyes that the other party projected on himself and John from time to time.
It's just that the older ones are deeper in the city, and the performance is not as obvious as that of Kodama Yushifu. This is not to say that Kodama Yu Shifu does not have a city government, in fact, Kodama Yu Shifu has already behaved very powerfully, but under Fang Lang's keen perception, his disguise is easier to detect.
Under normal circumstances, of course, Fang Lang had to find a way to set up a series of obstacles for these two guys to make it more difficult to achieve their goals, but now Fang Lang resisted the urge to kill the two directly, and sat at the same wine table with the other party, the purpose of making a false accusation was to further understand the purpose of the two and spy on the two of them for more information, of course, they couldn't let this banquet become a simple eating, drinking, and merrymaking.
But he couldn't just ask the two of them directly, or ask John to hear what they wanted to do. This is likely to warn the two Japanese and make them give up on achieving their own goals from John.
With this in mind, he began to quietly look for a topic that had little to do with the two of them, but they could easily do it.
"Hey! John, are you familiar with the boss here? β
Fang Lang's sudden question made John slightly stunned, and he looked at Fang Lang with some puzzlement and asked:
"Familiar! What's wrong? β
No wonder he was a little puzzled, after all, before coming here, he had actually told Fang Lang about the relationship between this place and Kodama Yu Shifu, and now at this time, Fang Lang raised this question, which was obviously a little strange.
"It's nothing, just before entering the room, I saw a few pieces of Chinese porcelain in the hall outside, I am more interested in these things, I don't know if these things are real Chinese antiques, if so, I want to ask the boss here to buy, I don't know if it's okay?"
Fang Lang's words made the eyes of Kodama Yushi and Shigemitsu Aoi light up instantly, and the two exchanged glances quickly.
And John suddenly realized, glanced at the Kodama Yushi beside him, and then slowly spoke:
"This"
Before he could say anything, Kodama Yushi on the side had already spoken first:
"General Fang, this kind of trivial matter, you don't need Colonel Clark to do it at all, I can directly help you.
You're right, the porcelain outside is indeed antique porcelain from China, but it's not a fine product, and if you're interested in it, I can look for you.
It is guaranteed to find authentic Chinese fine official kiln porcelain for you, and each piece is a fine product. β
Fang Lang saw that the other party couldn't wait to answer, and he understood that the other party was in a trap, after all, looking for antique porcelain from China in Japan was too simple for them.
But if he comes forward to solve this matter for Fang Lang, he will be able to open up the situation in front of John, which is the principle of "if you want to take it, you must first deal with it".
Hearing Kodama's words, Fang Lang of course immediately showed a feeling of interest.
"Oh! Mr. Kodama seems to be very knowledgeable about Chinese antiques? β
"Where, where! I just happen to know some people who are very interested in this area. β
Naturally, he couldn't say that in order to loot more wealth from Huaxia, he recruited a lot of professionals to classify and manage these things.
"So, Mr. Kodama has a large number of channels for purchasing Chinese antiques?"
Fang Lang originally just wanted to open a topic, but now after hearing Kodama Yushifu's words, his heart immediately moved, he knew that the Japanese had robbed a lot of antiques from his hometown, and he could still see the news that the Japanese had not returned the antiques until he was reborn.
Now is a great idea to be able to transfer some of the antiques from Japan to Brazil. It's better to keep it in the hands of the Chinese than in the hands of the Japanese!
So he directly said the idea of buying Chinese antiques on a large scale.
Kodama Yu Shifu obviously didn't expect that Fang Lang would open his mouth and want to buy it on a large scale, if it was just one or two fine Chinese antiques, it didn't matter if he gave it to Fang Lang, but if it was a large-scale purchase, he was a little hesitant.
After all, he is also very fond of these things. But now that the words have come to this, it is impossible for him to deny his ability, so he can only bite the bullet and say:
"It's not a channel to buy Chinese antiques in large quantities, mainly because I know a lot of collectors who collect Chinese antiques, and they have a lot of precious Chinese antiques in their hands, if you are interested, Mr. Fang, I can help you match."
At this moment, Fang Lang was almost certain that Kodama Yu Shifu must have a lot of treasures in his hands, after all, John had told him that this guy was the one who was responsible for looting wealth in his hometown and transferring it.
After hearing the other party's words, he did not directly debunk it, but smiled excitedly:
"Haha...... That's great, I'm worried I can't find enough Chinese antiques in my Brazilian home to decorate the faΓ§ade! Now, with Mr. Kodama's help, my wish will be fulfilled soon.
If I have the opportunity, I would like to build a private museum of Chinese cultural relics at home, and since Mr. Kodama has the ability to find so many treasures and antiques, then I will leave this matter to Mr. Kodama to be responsible. Mr. Kodama shouldn't let me down, right? β
Fang Lang's seemingly casual words directly arranged this matter to Kodama Yu Shifu to be responsible, and did not give the other party a chance to resign at all.
After hearing Fang Lang's words, Kodama Yu Shifu instantly felt that the whole person was not good, where is this asking him for help! It's clearly forcing him to complete this task!
He obviously couldn't accept this kind of thing, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"General Fang, don't worry, these antiques are not my own, I can't make decisions for those collectors, I can only say that I will help General Fang match you and find a seller of rare Chinese antiques for you.
As for whether the deal can be successfully negotiated, it depends on the outcome of the negotiation between the two of you. β
At this time, how could Fang Lang give the other party a chance to get out easily, the smile on his face instantly converged, his eyes looked at the other party sharply, and a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth.
"So, isn't Mr. Kodama going to give me a certain face?"
Fang Lang's attitude changed too quickly, his face was still full of joy just now, the sun was shining and the clouds covered the top in an instant, and the two Japanese girls sitting next to Fang Lang immediately felt a cold breath emanating from Fang Lang's body, which made the two of them shudder, and the whole person was silent, not daring to make any move.
Kodama Yushio and Shigemitsu Aoi also instantly felt the change in Fang Lang's attitude, and both of them stared. But both of them were big people who used to be in high positions and held real power, and they were not afraid of Fang Lang's threat at all.
As the former head of the intelligence agency, Kodama Yushifu felt unprecedented humiliation, he once showed off his power in China, where would he put a Chinese in his eyes, and what could the other party do if he was a Brazilian rear admiral!
In the eyes of the Japanese, Brazil is just a small South American country that cannot be put on the table, and it is not much different from those ordinary European and American colonies.
To elaborate, in their eyes, the gold content of Fang Lang, a Brazilian rear admiral, is far less heavy than that of John, a US Navy colonel.
Now, it seems to him that the empire, which has lived a good life, is threatened by a naval officer of a small colonial country, which is simply a great shame in his opinion.
But considering that the other party was the object of Colonel John Clark's banquet, he still forcibly suppressed his anger and replied in a stiff tone:
"General Fang misunderstood, it's not that I don't give General Fang face, it's really that these things are not my personal property, and I have no right to decide where he belongs."
John on the side was still watching the exchange between the two on the side just now, thinking that Fang Lang just wanted to buy some antiques, but he didn't expect that the development of things would immediately change drastically, and the two sides who were still friendly just now instantly became tense, which made him almost unable to react, and thought that Fang Lang was deliberately looking for trouble with Kodama Yushifu.
But with the relationship between him and Fang Lang, he had to stand on Fang Lang's side, so he just thought about it for a while, and then said directly:
"Mr. Kodama, as far as I know, you have a lot of Chinese antiques on your hands, since General Fang likes it, I think, you can transfer these useless things to General Fang for the sake of my face!"
John's statement greatly surprised Kodama Yushio and Shigemitsu Aoi, they didn't expect John to help Fang Lang to buy and sell, which made the faces of the two instantly look ugly.
For a while, the lively room suddenly became audible, and several Japanese girls in charge of serving felt this tense atmosphere, and they were too frightened to move.
Fang Lang didn't care how ugly Kodama Yushifu and Shigemitsu Aoi's faces were, after hearing John's words, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and he picked up the wine glass on the table with a smile and raised his glass to John who was sitting opposite.
Colonel John Clark, who was a member of the Japanese occupation forces, naturally did not care about the attitudes of the two Japans, even if Kodama Yushio was the partner of the CIA! If you annoy yourself, if it's a big deal, you will kill the other party and replace it with an obedient person.
As for whether Fang Lang would be afraid of these two Japanese, he would not be even more worried that Fang Lang's real influential identity in the United States was not a rear admiral of the Brazilian Navy. Rather, it is the boss of the Universal Group, and the huge connections and influence that the Universal Group has in the American consortium.
You must know that the United States is a capitalist country, not an official-based country, and the capitalists are the masters of the country, and the current Japanese Taishang Huang MacArthur is majestic in Japan and dares to argue with the US president, but if he offends Fang Lang, Fang Lang only needs to let the United States exert its influence on the consortium.
A large number of members of Congress will soon jump out to impeach MacArthur, and it will only be a matter of minutes before he is removed from office. Of course, not many people know Fang Lang's identity, and John only knows something about it because his father works under Fang Lang.
Therefore, after seeing Fang Lang raising a glass to himself, he did not hesitate to pick up the wine glass and toast to Fang Lang, and drank it all, not caring about the gloomy and ugly faces of the two former Japanese high-ranking officials.
