This was a very long and difficult verification. various
Just one Pier 1 is enough to drive the severely understaffed inspection team crazy.
Why did Meng Shaoyuan do this?
Even Takuma Shintani, who learned the news, didn't know.
Takuma Shintani didn't let himself think anymore.
He knew that he was an old-school agent, completely different from a new-school agent like Meng Shaoyuan.
No matter what Meng Shaoyuan wants to do, let him do it.
What I have to do is to assist him and complete the mission! various
Takuma Shintani just noticed something interesting:
The guard named Li Zhifeng beside Meng Shaoyuan disappeared.
Well, missing, gone.
This guy named Li Zhifeng has been met by Takuma Shintani.
He is a professional soldier with a thirst for blood.
But I'm afraid my mind is a bit simple.
But, is this really the case? various
At this time, Li Zhifeng, who seemed a bit simple-minded to Takuma Shintani, was looking at the two men in front of him with a smile.
This is an overseas Chinese father and son.
The father's name is Ding Tingshan, and the son's name is Ding Xizan.
They were originally a business family and came to Manila several generations ago.
They went through the Spanish era, the American era, and then the Japanese era.
They have stood firm for generations, allowing the Ding family's business to grow bigger and bigger.
Unfortunately, the arrival of the Japanese ruined all this! various
All the wealth they had accumulated over generations of hard work was taken away by these bandits.
In an instant, they fell from a wealthy family to abject poverty.
Ding Tingshan's two sons and two daughters were captured by the Japanese.
His father was furious to death.
His wife also fell ill and died without money for medical treatment.
Ding Tingshan's only son, Ding Xizan, is worth it.
They live in fear every day, fearing that bad luck will befall them one day. various
Until a few days ago, after Li Zhifeng found them.
They will never forget it. Li Zhifeng looked at them with a smile:
"Are you Ding Tingshan and Ding Xizan?"
"Is it us?" Ding Tingshan looked at him doubtfully: "Are you?"
"I am Meng Tadui."
Li Zhifeng said seriously.
Meng's father? various
Ah, it's Meng Tadui.
Although the name was very strange, Ding Tingshan still boldly asked: "What can I do for you?"
"You have been in business for generations." Li Zhifeng said seriously: "Also, I heard that you have three sons who have learned Spanish, English, and Japanese respectively, right?"
Ding Tingshan nodded.
He is a shrewd businessman who taught his two sons Spanish and English respectively, making the Ding family more comfortable in Manila.
Especially Spanish.
Although the Spanish were driven away by the Americans, Spanish influence remained in Manila. various
As for Japanese?
As Japan's power became stronger and stronger, more and more Japanese came to Manila. The foresight of Ding Tingshan allowed his youngest son to learn Japanese.
However, despite all his calculations, he failed to calculate that even though he knew Japanese, the Ding family still did not escape the tragedy of family destruction and death.
"You should feel lucky." Li Zhifeng glanced at Ding Xizan intentionally or unintentionally: "It was your other two sons who were taken away, not this younger son. Otherwise, you will be of no use to me. Follow me. Let me go."
"Where to go?" Ding Tingshan felt confused.
"Go to a place where you can eat and drink enough without having to worry about it every day." Li Zhifeng then took out two pieces of cake and said, "Eat on the way."
Ding family father and son
It's been several days since I've eaten properly. various
When I saw something to eat, I took it and stuffed it into my mouth without saying anything.
As long as they can fill their stomachs, they are willing to go no matter where they go.
Originally, the Ding family and his son thought they were prepared, but the other party asked them to do something very difficult and dangerous.
Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the destination, we just asked them to do the accounting.
But there is a premise, follow the sample and do the accounting in Japanese.
And there are many special requirements.
Accounting is their father and son's specialty, so it's no problem. various
Whenever they prepare an account as required, Li Zhifeng will take it away.
What the Ding family and his son didn't know was that in the room next to them, there was another overseas Chinese locked up there.
This person’s name is Chen Xinghui. His craftsmanship is something that most people wouldn’t know:
Fake and old.
This is also his ancestral craft.
When Americans ruled Manila, Chen Xinghui relied on this craft to make many fake antiques and successfully sold them to the Americans.
Finally one time, his mistake was revealed and he was thrown into prison by the angry Americans. various
Before they could deal with him, the Japanese launched an attack on Manila.
As a result, he was a blessing in disguise.
Not only can he lie, he is also very eloquent.
He told the Japanese that he was thrown into prison by the Americans because he helped a Japanese expatriate.
He was even able to clearly name the Japanese expatriate, and said with "pain" that he was brutally killed by the Americans before Japan occupied Manila.
His sharp tongue actually made the Japanese believe him.
Not only was he released, but he was also rewarded with a sum of money. various
However, after he was released from prison, he lost his source of livelihood, and the bonuses given by the Japanese were quickly used up by him.
With no skills other than counterfeiting, he encountered a serious existential crisis.
Until Li Zhifeng found him.
"You're a liar."
Li Zhifeng opened his mouth and said.
Before Chen Xinghui could defend himself, Li Zhifeng said again: "You have made too many fakes and deceived too many people, haven't you? Don't lie in front of me, no one can do it."
Hey, why do you look so like Master Meng when you speak? various
Chen Xinghui felt a kind of fear in this man for no reason.
He nodded hard.
Li Zhifeng asked again: "Do you want to live or die?"
"Want to live!"
Chen Xinghui said this without even thinking about it.
"If you want to live, come with me and don't ask anything."
In this way, Chen Xinghui followed Li Zhifeng to this place. various
He temporarily lost his freedom.
However, Chen Xinghui didn't feel anything was wrong.
After all, here, you can eat, drink, and live a life without worries.
He would do whatever Li Zhifeng asked him to do.
He never said a word when he shouldn't have asked.
This is a skill for surviving.
And Li Zhifeng used this time to gather these three strange people. various
Meng Shaoyuan took an account book from Li Zhifeng's hand, looked through it, and was very satisfied: "The quality is good, hurry up. We are inspecting Pier 1, and we must complete all the work before going to Pier 2."
"Understood."
Just as Li Zhifeng finished speaking, he heard a timid voice coming from the room: "Meng Tadui, this book is also ready."
"What are they calling?" Meng Shaoyuan's eyes widened suddenly: "Li Zhifeng, what the hell, Meng Tatui? Is your grandma's still a toy?"
