Wang Xi went out to say hello to Fushun and asked him to look ahead. Returning to the backyard, he told Xiaowuzi the purpose of the operation.
This Piaohe River was rich in Guandong cigarettes during the Qing Dynasty, and the cigarettes produced here were all given as tribute to the palace. After the Japanese came, they took control of the tobacco market in this area. They purchased and sold it and transported it to Xinjing. It is said that it was for Emperor Kant's royal use.
Koichi Fukada is originally a China expert and has been in China for more than ten years. Now his clothes, speech and behavior are all Chinese-style.
He himself regarded himself as a Manchurian. He bought a two-entry compound near the river in the town. He wore a robe, smoked a pipe, and spoke Northeastern dialect. Outsiders could not tell that he was Japanese at all. He brought his Japanese wife from his hometown, and because he had no children, he also took in a concubine, a Korean woman. Japan is fully Westernizing and practicing monogamy. But Manchukuo was allowed to take concubines.
Fukada was not from the military. He was sent by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Xinjing to supervise the purchase of tobacco from Kanto. He had to ensure that Xinjing could get top quality tobacco. So he was very free, so he bought a lot of land around this town, rented it out and became a landlord. Even Wang Xi's big car shop rents Fukada's house.
He also kept a few gunners to look after his home and nursery. When he had nothing to do, he often went out to smoke and chat with his neighbors. The neighbors all thought he was Chinese.
But this is just an appearance. In fact, Fukada is from the Japanese intelligence agency. They are spies who specialize in collecting anti-alliance intelligence in this mountainous area.
Spring has not yet begun, and all his Japanese soldiers are in Jilin. Now Fukada only has three Chinese gunners, including him and his two wives, a total of six people. This is when the defense is at its weakest. Wang Xi originally had A helper, he went on a mission a few days ago and didn't come back. Only Wang Xi and Fu Shun are left, and Fu Shun is not very clever yet. Originally, Wang Xi was about to give up, but when Xiaowuzi arrived, Wang Xi decided to get rid of Fukada before leaving.
Wang Xi asked Xiao Wuzi to have a good rest first, and he would step on a plate first. Pull out a sledge in the yard, go to the front yard, tie the roe deer to the sledge, and pull it out to the west.
The common people called Fukada Mr. Tian, and his courtyard was called Tian Family Courtyard. Wang Xi came to the door of the courtyard and knocked on the door. The gunner Wang Xiaozi came out and opened the door.
"Hey, Shopkeeper Wang, what is this?"
"Family, is the boss at home? I'll send him some fresh goods."
"My boss told me before that if you come, just come in. My boss is in the backyard. I'll tie up the dog and you can pull the sledge in."
Wang Xi went into the front yard to wait, while Wang Xiaozi went to the back yard to report. Wang Xi looked around without moving his eyes. The other two gunners also came out, and they both greeted Wang Xi and knew them both.
At this time Fukada came out. Wang Xi said: "My boss, I collected a roe deer today. It's alive and I sent it to you quickly. I heard that this thing has great blood replenishment." After that, he winked at Fukada.
Fukada was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, great, Xizi, let's eat here at noon. I'll ask your sister-in-law to prepare a few more dishes, and we can all have some drinks." Wang Xi said, "Is this...appropriate?" Fukada said: " It’s rare for you to be so free. I don’t have much to do here, and there aren’t many people at home. It’s a lot of fun together. I’ll ask your sister-in-law to give you the money later.”
That's the good thing about the old devil Fukada. He gives money happily and is never short of money.
He ordered the cannon leader Li Zhuzi to kill the roe deer and led Wang Xi into the backyard.
Walking into the inner courtyard, there are three main rooms, a kitchen in the middle, and bedrooms on both sides. Fukada's older and younger wives each occupied a room. Although Fukada married the younger wife, he slept in the older wife's room every once in a while. It was fair.
Wang Xi followed, and Fukada asked his concubine Li Zhen to cook. Wang Xi said, "Shall I go help?" Fukada waved his hand and said, "Sit down and chat with me."
The two of them took off their shoes and got on the kang. Fukada took the cigarette basket, and they put on their cigarette pouches and lit them up to smoke. Li Zhen first poured two bowls of hot water from a thermos bottle and brought them up.
Li Zhen is a Korean, but she grew up in a Han village. She is not very fluent in Korean, but speaks Chinese very crisply. He is very handsome and has watery eyes that are alluring. Wang Xi had seen her whom she had married the previous year, but had not spoken to her. Li Zhen said: "Shopkeeper Wang, have a drink of water first, and I'll go stir-fry." Wang Xi quickly said: "Sorry, sister-in-law!"
Fukada asked Wang Xi how his business was going. Wang Xi said, "These days, it's getting harder and harder to get around. This year, I'll be able to hire some people in the fall, and I'll be working all winter. If my boss hadn't been kind, I would have I don’t even want to work for such a two-money rent.” Fukada said, “Don’t get angry, we two brothers will chat for a while and we’ll do something good.” Then he changed the subject. Fukada is interested in Wang Xi's big car shop. The biggest advantage of doing this business is that he is well-informed and is very suitable for gathering intelligence. He also needs a versatile talent like Wang Xi, and he should attract him.
After a while, the food was served. Scrambled eggs, fried peanuts, spicy tofu, braised white meat, quite rich. Roe deer meat is being stewed in the front yard. Li Zhen brought fresh roe deer blood mixed with white wine, and Fukada gave it to Wang Xi. Wang Xi smiled and said, "It's no use drinking this for me as an errand boy." Fukada also laughed, and Li Zhen glared at Wang Xi with a blushing face.
Fukada's wife gave him five yuan. Wang Xi said, "You don't need that much. I paid you three yuan. If you want to pity me, boss, please give me another yuan." Fukada said, "I don't need these three melons and two dates." Give it in, we have something important to discuss later." Wang Xi asked, "What's the matter?" Fukada said, "Drink first, we'll talk about it later." He then asked Li Zhen to call in the three gunners in the front yard. After a while, the leader Li Zhuzi came in with a large pot of stewed roe deer meat, and the two little brothers also came over with a kang table and hot wine.
Northeasterners are all bold and uninhibited in character, and they all like to drink. After a few glasses of wine, the conversation started, and they started chatting all over the world. Wang Xi runs a big car shop and has contact with all the three religions in the world. He is even more humorous and witty in his spoken words, which makes people feel like spring breeze.
After three rounds of drinking, Fukada said seriously to Wang Xi: "Xiko, we have known each other for several years. I think you are a very down-to-earth person and reliable in your work. Your business is not very profitable, so why not come and work for me?" Get a position in the Ministry of Agricultural Development of Manchukuo. I never treat my brothers badly. If you don't believe me, ask Zhu Zhu and the others?" Li Zhu Zhu was already drunk and his tongue was so big that he said to Wang Xi: "Brother Wang, your brother and I I have worked with several bosses over the years, and in the early years I carried a gun for Marshal Zhang. If you want to say that the brothers under our opponents are good, our boss is this one." He said and gave the thumbs up. Wang Xi said with a flattered look on his face: "My boss thinks so highly of me, I don't know what to say. I don't have any merits, I'm just a down-to-earth person. Since my boss appreciates me, I'll accept it and go back tomorrow." Close the sale."
Fukada smiled and said: "You are still open for business, and I will give you five yuan of wages every month. But you have to be obedient. I have orders and you must obey them." Wang Xi said: "No problem, this is great. Okay, can I be considered an official? I don’t know how to thank my boss, how about I kowtow to you!" After saying that, he left the table and kowtowed three times to Fukada "Dang Dang Dang". Fukada enjoyed this feeling and accepted it with a smile.
The banquet lasted until dark and the lights were turned on. Old Fukada drank too much, so Wang Xi and Li Zhen helped him back to the east room. Fukada's wife helped him sleep while Li Zhen went to clear the table. Wang Xi said goodbye and went out. The three gunners also returned to the front yard. They were all so drunk that they were swaying while walking. Only Wang Xi drank less because he had to keep vigil.
Wang Xi went out and pulled the sledge far away. Then he scratched his throat and vomited all the food he had eaten in the afternoon on the side of the road.
Xiaowuzi hasn't had such a good sleep for a long time. When I woke up, it was already dark and I had slept all day. I got up and took off the bandage and looked at the wound. It was completely scabbed and there was no need to change the dressing. Wrapping the bandage again, he checked what he was wearing. The dagger on his leg and the information sewn on the lining of his cotton-padded jacket were all there. His escape this time, informing Uncle Ma and Wang Xi to evacuate were all secondary tasks. The intelligence in his arms was the top priority.
After hearing that the political commissar had died, Xiaowuzi took another risk and went to the Xiaoerdaohezi secret camp. The secret camp has been burned down, but there is still a secret contact point on the back mountain. This contact point is a backup. Only three people know about it, and those two are no longer there.
At the height of the big birch tree marked by three stones, Xiao Wuzi pried open a piece of bark with a knife, took out the suicide note of the political commissar and others inside, and ordered the anti-alliance fighters who found this information. If possible, go to Changchun to look for the missing traffic officer. Find him at all costs, because he has vital information. Then there is the name, appearance, and contact code. If the person is dead, we must try our best to find the information and continue to complete the mission. Xiaowuzi originally saw that he was injured and planned to spread the information. But now, he decided to finish tonight's operation, because he knew that person, and he was very familiar with it, as familiar as Golden Beans.
