"Dear General, welcome to Shanghai!"
Meng Shaoyuan raised his wine glass.
"Romanee-Conti." Jobrina was a little surprised.
She likes a luxurious life. Once she tasted it, she immediately tasted the oldest and best red wine in the world:
Romanee-Conti!
She never imagined that she could taste such expensive red wine in distant China!
It's incredible.
Her impression of the young "king" Meng Shaoyuan changed again.
Having money and knowing how to live are two different things.
Even in Italy, it is not easy to drink Romani Conti.
"I hope I can satisfy Madam." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "The Brochet family purchased Chateau Romanée-Conti for 260,000 francs, which restored the brilliance of this diamond. If Madam likes it, you can buy it in I will prepare a few bottles for you to take back when you return home."
In his mouth, sending out bottles of Romanee-Conti is as simple as sending out bottles of water.
Roligani and Jobrina no longer had any doubts about the young man's financial resources.
As the pride of the Far East, the city of Shanghai has become a real pearl after so many years of development. Although its prosperity is not as prosperous as that of big cities like New York, it has long surpassed Rome.
The level of luxury of international hotels is comparable to that of most hotels in the world.
In short, although they have just arrived in Shanghai, Roligani and Qiaobrina are already very satisfied with this arrangement.
Today, the focus is on Chinese cuisine. These delicacies are something that Italians have never seen before.
For example, there is a fish with an attractive color, a cut on its back, and its head and tail raised up.
Take a bite, it's sour and sweet, especially delicious.
"This is squirrel mandarin fish." Meng Shaoyuan introduced.
"Why do you call it squirrel?" Qiao Brina asked curiously.
this?
This really embarrassed Meng Shaoyuan.
Fortunately, Wu Jingyi said from the side: "In our Qing Dynasty, there was an emperor named Qianlong. When Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he once strolled to the Songhelou Restaurant and saw mandarin fish swimming in the lake. It was necessary to bring it for consumption. At that time, the fish was used as a sacrifice to worship the gods, so I did not dare to eat it. However, it was difficult to violate the sacred order, so the waiter had to discuss with the chef. Finally, he decided to use the fish head to make a rat to avoid the sin of the sacred fish. When a plate of squirrel mandarin fish is served on the table, the fish body can be heard squeaking, which is very similar to the sound of a squirrel. Hence the name."
How else can I say that being a good assistant is very important?
…
Meng Shaoyuan entertained guests from foreign countries with delicacies here, but on the other side there was already a turmoil.
A few hours ago, Zhengjin Bank.
Under the command of chairman Ishidao Hiroshi, several bodyguards from Zhengjin Bank beat up the guy who called himself "Shun Matsudaira".
There is no chance to distinguish for oneself at all.
When Shi Daohuan thought of that big robbery, his heart was filled with anger. When the beating was over, he grabbed "Shun Matsudaira" whose face was covered with blood:
"Tell me, what is your relationship with the Zhengjin robbery?"
"Relationship? There is no relationship." Matsudaira Tetsuhiro gasped: "I don't know what the robbery was at all..."
"Then why did you use Matsudaira Shun's name?"
"Someone asked me to say that."
"who?"
"I have no idea."
"Don't know?" Shi Daokuan sneered: "What about you? Who are you?"
"I am Matsudaira Tetsuhiro. I am really from the Matsudaira family."
"You still dare to pretend?"
"No impersonation!" Matsudaira Tetsuhiro, who was afraid of being beaten again, shouted quickly: "Commander Hase, Minister Tani, and General Doihara can all prove my identity!"
Shi Daokuan stayed there for a moment...
…
"Today, we will not talk about politics." Meng Shaoyuan gave Roligani a reassurance: "We can talk about anything."
Just don’t talk about politics.
To become a "friend" with someone, you first need to let go of their guard. Otherwise, it will be difficult to negotiate anything.
"Ah, yes." Roligani said: "Political matters are always too sensitive, such as the war between China and Japan, such as the relationship between Italy and Japan, but what makes me happy is that here I can Met you, my friend.”
"Tomorrow, I will take you to Xianshi Company." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "That is a department store. You can find department stores all over the world. I believe that the general and his wife will be satisfied."
"Thank you very much for your kindness, my friend." Roligani frowned slightly: "But the long journey has made my body very tired, so I want to take a good rest, but my wife is very worried about this. Interested in."
What he said was half true and half false.
Indeed, he was old, and the long sea journey from Italy to distant Shanghai made him very tired.
There is another reason:
money!
He knows that his wife spends a lot of money.
Although Meng Shaoyuan promised to pay for all the expenses in Shanghai, he couldn't really say nothing when others were paying, right?
The problem is that after paying off all the debts, there is not much left of the check that Daniel gave himself before departure.
The feeling of being short of money is not pleasant.
"Okay, General." Meng Shaoyuan did not force it: "I will definitely let my wife leave a good memory in Shanghai."
…
Everyone was stunned.
Damn it, the majestic Matsudaira family Tetsuhiro Matsudaira was beaten!
His face was covered in bruises, and he looked like he was being taken lightly.
What's going on?
"asshole!"
Kenji Doihara roared angrily: "Hiroshi Ishishima!"
"Your Excellency General, I am here."
Shi Daohuan's body began to tremble.
It's incredible.
Those who came turned out to be really members of the Matsudaira family!
"Asshole, bastard!"
Kenji Doihara's face was livid: "Kiroshi Ishishima, do you know the status of Matsudaira-dono's family in the Empire of Japan? How dare you attack Matsudaira-dono, I..."
He no longer knew what to say.
Shi Daokuan bowed deeply: "Sir Songping, I was wrong. I didn't know it was really you. Please punish me!"
Shanghai is not a good place for me.
This is what Matsudaira Tetsuhiro thought.
First, the person he was responsible for was kidnapped.
Then, he received another beating for no apparent reason.
He suppressed the anger in his heart: "You, resign yourself and go back to Japan to accept your guilt."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"Sir Matsudaira." Doihara Kenji asked cautiously: "Why did you go to Shokin Bank? Do you have any business to do? Also, why did you use the name Matsudaira Shun?"
"That's my business. General, mine!"
Matsudaira Tetsuhiro knew that he had been deceived, but he could never say it, otherwise the Matsudaira family would lose all face!
