Ji Quanrong specially dressed up and even had her hair styled by a French hairstylist.
This French hairstylist's asking price is very expensive. For a simple hair style, the asking price is only five yuan.
But in order to leave a good impression in front of the Japanese beauty, Ji Quanrong spent this money.
He came to the restaurant early.
Several bodyguards were sitting scattered.
These are the bodyguards Wu Sibao personally selected for him.
After waiting there for a while, the waiter opened the restaurant door.
Ji Quanrong's eyes lit up when he saw the person coming in.
Makoto Matsumoto!
Today, Manaiko is wearing a light blue dress and a ponytail, making her look even more pure and beautiful.
She was also holding a bag in her hand.
Ji Quanrong vowed to get this beauty!
"Ms. Matsumoto, please."
Ji Quanrong diligently pulled out the stool.
"Thanks."
Makoto smiled, as charming as she wanted.
Ji Quanrong's heart almost bursts: "Miss Matsumoto, let's see what you need to eat."
"It's all up to Mr. Ji to decide."
Look, look, this is a woman.
I heard that for Japanese women, the man has the highest status in the family!
If you can really get this woman, then your good days will come...
…
Meng Shaoyuan was sitting in the car and saw Zhen Naiko entering the restaurant.
No one is following.
He was a little curious, did Koichi Hahara really let go of Makoto like that?
…
"Mr. Ji, thank you for lunch. I'm so sorry."
Shinoko put down the knife and fork and took out the bag: "This is a small gift. I hope you don't dislike it."
Ji Quanrong's eyes lit up.
Gift?
A gift from Makoto to herself?
Ah, I am so charming and handsome, how could a little girl like Manaiko resist my charm?
"Thank you so much." Ji Quanrong's hands trembled slightly as he took the bag, "Can I take a look?"
"Of course, Mr. Ji."
Ji Quanrong carefully took out a box from the bag.
Slightly heavy.
He opened the box and was surprised to find a clock inside.
Send the clock...send the clock...
In the minds of Chinese people, "send bell" and "send bell" are homophonic, which is very unlucky.
Makoto didn't notice at all: "This is our Japanese custom..."
Ji Quanrong still knows some Japanese customs.
Chinese people are very taboo about giving bells, but the Japanese are different.
In Japan, people are keen on giving bells as gifts
Because in Japanese, the word "clock" is written as "timepiece", which is homophonic with "Dengqing" and "Denghui", and has the meaning of "joyful and auspicious". ,
At the same time, the bell is a symbol of always moving forward regardless of severe cold or heat throughout the year. Sending a bell has the meaning of motivating the other person to work hard, look ahead, never slacken, and strive for progress.
Thinking of this, Ji Quanrong felt a lot relieved.
What's more, this was given to me by Shineko.
"Thank you so much." Ji Quanrong put it away solemnly: "Look, Miss Matsumoto also gave me a gift, but I didn't prepare anything."
Makoto smiled: "It doesn't matter. Mr. Ji can also give me a gift when we meet next time."
"sure."
Ji Quanrong wished he could hold Zhen Naizi in his arms right now.
It's a pity that my uncle and grandpa still have something to do for themselves in the afternoon.
It doesn't matter, since Makoto has taken a fancy to him, are he still afraid that he won't have a chance?
He is about to become the son-in-law of the Japanese colonel...
…
"District Chief Meng, come out."
"Yes, I understand. After Ji Quanrong leaves, drive the car over immediately."
…
"Ms. Matsumoto, I'll see you off."
"Ah, thank you so much. No need. I'm going to buy something and I'll call a rickshaw home later."
"Okay, Miss Matsumoto, see you next time."
…
A car stopped in front of Zhen Naizi, and the door opened: "Do you need me to take you off?"
Zhen Naiko smiled like a flower: "Of course you need it, Shao Yuan-kun."
…
Ji Quanrong rested in the car for a while with his eyes closed, then opened his eyes and saw the gift given to him by Zhen Naiko.
Although this is a Japanese custom, it is really unlucky for a Chinese.
By the way, I'm going to see Mr. Yamamoto, the manager of Japan Oil Tanker Corporation in Shanghai, who is a key Japanese economic figure in Shanghai.
On behalf of the Ji family, he went to discuss cooperation with Mr. Yamamoto.
Wouldn't it be enough to give this bell to Mr. Yamamoto?
It not only pleases the Japanese customs, but also sends away unlucky things.
Ji Quanrong laughed when he thought of this...
…
"Sannako, you can rest here for a few days, and I will arrange for you to evacuate Shanghai."
"Shao Yuan-kun, what about you?"
"I have to go back. I'll come with you when I'm done."
…
Sure enough, Nagakei Yamamoto, the manager of Japan Oil Tanker Co., Ltd. in Shanghai, was very happy to see the gift from Ji Quanrong.
"Always move forward." Yamamoto Nagakei said with a smile: "Mr. Ji, the bell you gave is very meaningful. It means that we must seize every moment to build a prosperous world. *Struggle for the circle.”
"Yes, Lord Yamamoto."
Ji Quanrong said flatteringly: "This time I am here on behalf of Boss Ji to discuss how to fully cooperate with Japan Oil Tanker Company."
"We attach great importance to Boss Ji's prestige in Shanghai..."
…
"Wu Jingyi..."
As soon as Meng Shaoyuan opened his mouth as soon as he entered the office, Wu Jingyi pulled him aside: "Someone is looking for you."
"Who?"
Wu Jingyi hesitated for a moment and said something in a low voice.
"Huh? Who?"
"real."
Meng Shaoyuan was stunned...
…
"Okay, that's the initial intention to cooperate."
Yamamoto Changqing was very satisfied with today's talks. No matter what conditions he put forward, Ji Quanrong always agreed.
It is said that Ji Yunqing is loyal to the Japanese Empire. Now it seems that it is not an exaggeration at all.
Sending a bell does have a good meaning.
"We should have a drink."
Yamamoto Nagakei stood up.
At this moment, there was a sudden "boom" and a violent explosion filled the entire office!
…
On October 29, 1938, a bomb exploded in the office of the general manager of Nippon Oil Tanker Company in Shanghai.
Yamamoto Nagakei, an important economic representative figure of Japan stationed in Shanghai, who had organized two failed assassinations before the military reunification, was killed in the bombing.
Also killed in the bombing was Ji Quanrong, the grand-nephew of Ji Yunqing, a Shanghai Youth Gang leader.
It is said that the bomb was hidden in a bell brought by Ji Quanrong.
From another perspective, it is very likely that this was a carefully prepared assassination. Ji Quanrong brought a bomb and met the unsuspecting Yamamoto Changqing.
This person may have been bribed by the military commander a long time ago!
So are there other forces behind him supporting him?
…
"Tell me again, who wants to see me?" Meng Shaoyuan asked with his eyes widened.
Wu Jingyi said word by word:
"Your father is waiting to see you in your office right now!"
