"We are reporters from the Imperial Asahi Shimbun. Let your president come out..."
The fat man proudly handed their business cards to the guard at the entrance of the "Hongzhen Maintenance Council" and ordered.
When the guard at the door saw that it was a neon man and a reporter, he immediately did not dare to neglect and hurried in to report.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, a lean middle-aged man surrounded by two gangsters hurriedly ran out of the yard.
"My Excellency, Sun Jiafu, I don't know that the two journalists came to visit, but I missed the welcome from afar. I apologize for my sin."
Sun Jiafu had a flattering smile on his face and kept accusing him.
"This is our editor-in-chief, Mr. Han Yuliang, and I am Ijuin Hayato..."
"Sun Sang, we are here to interview the deeds of post-war reconstruction... The relevant departments recommended you, will you show us around?"
After the fat man introduced himself, he made a request to Sun Jiafu straight to the point.
"I am extremely honored to be able to serve the imperial army... How about this? Alahong Town has just experienced war, and there is not much good place to go. Let's move to Hongkou and find a neat place to eat and talk?"
Sun Jiafu's family knew about his family affairs, so he greeted them somewhat uneasily but attentively.
There are many shady activities hidden in this maintenance meeting. Of course, it is best not to show them in front of outsiders, so I quickly sent an invitation to the two "neon reporters".
The two "fake reporters" looked at each other, confirmed their eyes, and agreed to Chairman Sun's proposal.
"The branch of 'Dexing Pavilion' in Hongkou was less affected by the war this time and has been repaired. How about we go there?"
Sun Jiafu tentatively asked the two reporters.
The fat man thanked him and said, "Thank you very much Sun Sang for your kindness."
Now that the arrangements were in place, Sun Jiafu called a team of guards and escorted him and the two reporters to the Dexingguan branch on Qimei Road, Hongkou.
Some shops on Qimei Road that were less affected have resumed business, although the business is sluggish and there are few people.
"Dexing Hall" branch.
"Master Sun, I would like to thank you for your honor."
When the waiter saw that local gangster Sun Jiafu was coming with a group of people, he knew he was someone he couldn't afford to offend, so he hurriedly faced him.
"Well, Allah has distinguished guests today. I will pick up the popular dishes in your store and serve them. Money is not a problem."
Sun Jiafu ordered the waiter and walked straight towards the private room.
Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty remained silent and followed quietly into the private room.
After a lot of work, a table of dishes was quickly placed.
The rest of the guards were guarding outside the private room, leaving only the guard leader Duan San waiting inside the private room.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, the fat man began to ask Chairman Sun for business tips on how to make a fortune in a short period of time after the war.
"If you want to make a fortune, you still have to rely on the imperial army, especially to make a big fortune..."
When it comes to his traitor business experience, Sun Jiafu is naturally very clear-minded and shows off like a show off.
But showing off is showing off, and I have to say that Sun Jiafu does have some businessman's vision and talent when it comes to taking advantage of opportunities and leverage in doing business.
The two "fake reporters" even said it was true due to some crooked reasoning.
Sure enough, all real traitors have some ability, and people without ability cannot become traitors.
Moreover, although Sun Jiafu had a prosperous business record and provided a lot of materials for post-war reconstruction, he remained silent about his own housekeeping skills and ways to make money.
Sun Jiafu never mentioned any of his "secret business".
Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty listened to every word, but they had to pretend to be attentive, which made them feel uncomfortable.
After finishing the meal, it was already night.
The two of them had no intention of listening to Sun Jiafu's nonsense anymore - this interview was originally a cover, and Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty felt that it was enough to listen to his plain talk for so long.
Duan San and the guards were asked to serve Sun Jiafu and return to his home in Hong Town to rest. Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty agreed to go to Hong Town the next day to continue the on-site interview.
"Master, this guy is a veteran of the world, and he doesn't hold back."
After the fat man waited for the gang of traitors and scoundrels to go away, he whispered to Ma Xiaoguang.
Ma Xiaoguang smiled and said: "This is normal. This kidnapping is a shady matter. The person named Sun is not stupid. There is no way he can publicize it everywhere..."
But the fat man felt pity and said: "That's true, how do we get Zhou Huiding out? If you stay in that ghost place for one more day, Master Zhou will suffer for one more day."
"Just treat it as an experience. Besides, it won't last long. Tomorrow we will ask Sun Jiafu to arrange for people to be sent out of Hong Town. Let's arrange this tonight..."
Ma Xiaoguang stopped talking and began to whisper to Fatty his next plan.
Early the next morning.
Two fake reporters came to the "Hongzhen Maintenance Meeting" again.
The two of them went directly to the living room without lingering in the "Maintenance Association" courtyard.
Completely different from the amiability of yesterday, the two of them today had an awe-inspiring majesty.
"Nobi mechanism?"
Seeing another set of documents that the two men took out, Sun Jiafu, who had just woken up from a hangover, felt a little down.
"Sun Sang, many intelligence officers in the empire have multiple identities, and this reporter is one of them. Of course, news reporting is also one of our jobs."
The fat man solemnly gave an irrefutable reason.
Sun Jiafu and Duan San looked at each other, understanding in their hearts, and both expressed their deep understanding.
And they all solemnly expressed their willingness to serve the "Nobi Agency"!
"Yo Xi! Sun Sang, Duan Sang, I'm glad you have such an awareness. But let's hurry up. You are not 100% loyal to the empire, or you still have reservations in your heart!"
The fat man forced out a constipated smile and said to the two of them meaningfully.
Sun Jiafu and Duan San quietly exchanged a look, and pushed everyone around the living room to be on guard one meter away before respectfully starting to report.
"Two sirs, I didn't know that you were carrying an important mission, so I had to have reservations..."
"Well, that's understandable, Sun Sang, please continue talking..."
Ma Xiaoguang is naturally the one who is magnanimous and expresses his attitude like a big-tailed wolf.
"Some Chinese businessmen often opposed the imperial army in the early wars, causing a lot of obstacles and losses to the imperial army's actions. It was very abominable..."
"One of the more typical ones is 'Xiang Sheng Automobile Dealer'... So I was bold enough to seize the opportunity to tie him up the day before yesterday when his young master Zhou Huiding came to inspect the Hongkou branch..."
Sun Jiafu respectfully reported the ins and outs of the kidnapping incident.
Although his words were respectful, he was not afraid, but rather expectant, as if this "Zhou Huiding" was already a lamb to be slaughtered.
"So Sun Sang, what are you going to do next?"
Ma Xiaoguang asked calmly.
"You two, originally I just wanted to collect a ransom to get rid of the problem, but now that I have the support of the 'Nobi Organization', I have a new plan."
Sun Jiafu changed the subject and told the two of them with a smile.
