There was a reason for John's sudden outburst. After all, Fang Lang was the friend he invited. He initially asked Kodama Yushio to organize the reception because Fang Lang expressed that he wanted to know the current situation of the Japanese gang. Therefore, the person behind the Japanese gang was asked to come forward and explain.
As a result, the other party's appearance did not show the value it should have, but ruined the entire atmosphere. How could this not make him angry? If it weren't for the obvious purpose in Fang Lang's words, he would have gotten angry long ago.
Kodama Yushio and Shigemitsu Aoi heard John Clark's sudden outburst, and their faces twitched. However, Japan is now the territory of the Americans, and they also have requests from John, so they do not dare to offend him. Moreover, they today It can be considered a huge harvest, and many things will take some time to digest. I have no regrets about leaving now.
Therefore, after the two of them looked at each other, they leaned over and saluted John and Clark:
"Hi! We're rude! I'm really sorry! We've caused too much trouble today, so we'll leave first. Next time we will hold a special banquet to apologize to you two!"
After saying that, he slowly stood up and walked backwards.
Fang Lang smiled when he saw this, glanced at John who seemed to be still angry, and added to his anger:
"Brother, it seems that your control over Mr. Kodama needs to be strengthened!"
In fact, Kodama Yushio was definitely not under John's control. After all, John was not from CIA. Since the CIA released someone like Yushio Kodama, he must be under the control of the CIA.
The relationship between the other party and John is at best a cooperative relationship. After all, this is Japan. No matter how powerful the United States is, if it wants to truly control Japan, it must rely on the power of the Japanese. Especially for a naval logistics officer like John, who originally needed to purchase a lot of things locally, with the help of such a local snake, he could save a lot of trouble.
Hearing Fang Lang's slightly teasing words, John was not angry, he just shrugged and said:
"This guy and I have a relationship of mutual use. If you hadn't said that you wanted to learn something about the Japanese gang from this guy, I wouldn't have let him be responsible for this reception!
By the way, why are you acting so irritable today? It seems that you are a little different from before. "
Fang Lang glanced in the direction of the door. When he saw that the door was closed and the girls hadn't come back yet, he slowly said:
"I am a Chinese, and for these scum that have brought great disaster to our hometown, I did not draw my gun to kill these two guys on the spot just to give you face.
Do you still expect me to be nice to them? "
"Then why were you later willing to apply for a pardon for Aoi Shigemitsu?"
John even lowered his voice a little when he said this. But Fang Lang didn't care. This was the territory of the Japanese. There were some things he would say without scruples, but there were some things he wouldn't say.
He said that Kodama Yushio and Shigemitsu Aoi were scum. If he wanted to kill them, he would not be afraid even if they heard them. He could also let the other party know his true attitude. If the other party could not show his value, he would be worthless. Abandon them directly without scruples.
"This matter is not difficult for me, but now I have not said that I must help him operate it. If his performance cannot satisfy me, he will get nothing."
John glanced at Fang Lang's face and knew that Fang Lang was not telling the truth. He also understood what the occasion was. The partitions in the room were basically difficult to soundproof, and the conversation between the two was likely to be recorded. But he could see from Fang Lang's eyes that Fang Lang seemed to be deliberately encouraging him to ask more questions like this.
So he continued to ask very cooperatively:
"Then you just said that you wanted to say hello to Mr. Secretary of State for this matter of his. Is this necessary?"
When Fang Lang saw John confirming the identity of Marshall he said calmly, he couldn't help but show a satisfied smile. This kid was finally smart for once.
"I meant to inform Marshall of his situation first, and I didn't say to help him operate now. I just said hello to Marshall in advance and asked him to pay attention to Shigemitsu Aoi's situation. If the attitude he showed can make both Marshall and me Satisfied. Then I will consider helping him operate it.
If I can't see his sincerity in his performance, then I won't give him the chance to see me again. At the same time, because I have said hello to Marshall, when someone else wants to use this guy, Marshall has to ask me about my attitude. If I am not satisfied, no matter how he behaves in front of you Americans, he will never have the opportunity to do it again. Return to politics. "
When John heard Fang Lang's explanation, he glanced at Fang Lang in surprise, understanding that the other party was talking to people who might be eavesdropping. But I have to say that what Fang Lang said does make sense. With Fang Lang's influence in the United States, he can indeed do this easily.
Now, when he thinks of Shigemitsu Aoi, he doesn't know whether to congratulate him or pity him. It seemed that Fang Lang gave the other party a chance to choose, but in fact, the other party had no choice at all. If Fang Lang couldn't be satisfied, that would be the way he would be for the rest of his life.
For someone who has served as foreign minister of a foreign country, this situation is really embarrassing. However, he would not pity the other party, but continued to ask:
"Then what can he do to satisfy you?"
Fang Lang wanted to tell him that no matter what Shigemitsu Kui did, he would not be satisfied. Compared with the crimes committed by the other party, nothing he did was enough to atone for his sins. When the other party loses its use value, Fang Lang will give him an accident without hesitation.
But he couldn't say that. Even if John and he were good brothers, he couldn't tell him that he was going to organize a punisher organization to eliminate war criminals. It's not that you're afraid of the other party leaking secrets, it's actually that you can live more relaxedly when you don't know something.
Now he was not sure if anyone was eavesdropping, and it was even more impossible to tell the truth. He could only deliberately guide:
"First of all, I like Chinese cultural relics. At first, my purpose was just to let these two guys use their connections in Japan to help me collect some Chinese cultural relics from Japan.
But the other party's evasion and perfunctory made me very dissatisfied. Now that I have given this task to them, their performance on this matter will affect my satisfaction.
In addition to looking for them, I will also arrange for others to go to Japan to purchase Chinese cultural relics. If others can find better cultural relics in Japan than what they provide.
That means they are not serious about what they do, and I will naturally not be satisfied.
Secondly, I just reminded the guy named Shigemitsu that it has been so long since Japan surrendered, even though many war criminals have been tried.
But no one in Japan has come forward to repent for the crimes they committed. Thinking about our brothers who died on the Pacific battlefield, and thinking about the tens of millions of casualties in my home, can this all just end like this?
If he wanted to satisfy me, he had to show me his sincere repentance to his victims. If he can stand up and lead everyone to face up to history and apologize deeply, it will not be difficult for me to support him to become the new Prime Minister of Japan. "
Fang Lang's words are actually guiding Shigemitsu Kui, letting him understand what he should do to satisfy him, so that he can have a chance to obtain an amnesty, and even participate in the election for prime minister. Shigemitsu Kui is only in his sixties now, and Fang Lang doesn't believe it. He didn't want to go any further.
The position of the new prime minister is a carrot he deliberately dangled in front of the other party's eyes, an illusory pie painted for him. As for whether Shigemitsu Aoi can eat this pie, it depends on his own efforts.
This was a conspiracy. As for whether this word would reach Shigemitsu Aoi's ears, he was not worried at all. Looking at the Japanese girl who hadn't come in for so long, it was clear.
What Fang Lang wanted these guys to know had already been revealed through John's questions. He didn't want to say anything more, so he said directly:
"What the hell are these bastards doing, where's our girl!"
After hearing this, John also understood what Fang Lang meant. The topic ended here, and the next step was romance.
"Yeah! What are these bastards doing? Are they looking down on me?"
Just after the two complained, there was the sound of hurried footsteps at the door. Soon there was a knock on the wooden sliding door. Fang Lang and John looked at each other, raised their eyebrows quietly, exchanged glances, and smiled knowingly.
Soon, the girls who had just been kicked out by them came in with a gust of fragrance, knelt down beside the two of them again, and began to serve them to eat.
During the rest of the time, the two seemed to have forgotten everything that had just happened, and they did not even seem to remember that there were two other Japanese here.
Two days later in the morning, Fang Lang met with Mr. Joseph Clark, who had flown over from the United States, in the office of Colonel John Clark at the Logistics Office of the U.S. Naval Base in Japan.
"Boss, are you sure we want to open a branch in Japan?"
The current president of God's Whip Military Contracting Company is John's father. For such a big thing as opening a branch in Japan, the other party would of course have to go there in person. Therefore, after receiving Fang Lang's telegram, he immediately flew over on the company's special plane.
Today's God's Whip Military Contracting Company is no longer what it used to be. Not only is it entrusted by the U.S. Department of Defense, it performs stability maintenance tasks in several European countries and is responsible for maintaining the operation of several U.S. military bases.
It has also been entrusted by some other countries to train their own officers and troops. Of course, most of these countries have good relations with the United States and purchase arms from Shatta Corporation.
This allows God's Whip to become a regular army with sea, land and air forces, as well as a group of instructors with high military quality. The number of troops has reached an exaggerated number of more than 30,000, and their combat effectiveness can defeat most small countries that have just become independent.
As the president, General Joseph Clark was naturally too busy, but when he heard that Fang Lang said he wanted to open a branch in Japan, he hurried over.
You must know that although God's Whip is developing very well now, in addition to the US head office, it has only established a branch in Brazil and Germany to coordinate business in the Americas and Europe. Now that Fang Lang is setting up a branch in Japan, he is obviously preparing to enter the Asian market.
Joseph Clark didn't want to object to this, but in recent years, with the rapid expansion of God's Whip, the business has also developed very rapidly, but the way military contracting companies like them open up the market is different from ordinary companies. , it is necessary to rely on real swords and guns to open the market.
Europe is not completely stable now, and the power in his hands is somewhat stretched for a while. He is very worried that Fang Lang will let them join a war in Asia just like the one they experienced in Greece. It's not that he doesn't want to make money, In fact, their team is very tired now.
Because, unlike the government's regular army, military contracting companies like theirs don't have many opportunities to take turns. They do the hardest, most tiring, and most dangerous work on the battlefield, which makes their soldiers a little exhausted and it's hard to relax. Come down a little, everyone wants to have a good rest.
If he were to join a new battlefield right away, he would be worried that his men would not be able to withstand the pressure and collapse. Therefore, when he learned that Fang Lang now wanted to establish a Japanese branch, his first reaction was not surprise, but hesitation and even worry.
Fang Lang could naturally feel Joseph's emotions. If the other party acted very happy or even overly excited, Fang Lang might be a little worried. After all, he knew that there would be a war on the peninsula next year, but this time the opponent was his family, and it was impossible for him to let people from his company fight against his family.
Now Joseph's attitude just made him directly decide not to participate in the Peninsula War. Fang Lang looked at Joseph Clark, who looked a little dusty but had very bright eyes, smiled and threw a cigar to him.
"Uncle Clark, don't worry, I really have some ideas to have a good discussion with you when I called you here this time.
I am very aware that our team is now depleted and in urgent need of rest, so I have no plans to take on a high-intensity new business right away.
Even in the last two or three years, I am not prepared to continue to get involved in this kind of big business. As for the reason! "
At this point, Fang Lang paused slightly. When he saw Joseph Clark trimming the cigar in his hand and listening to his words carefully, he smiled and continued:
“First, in the past two years, our company’s employees have worked very intensively, suffered a lot of casualties, and are in urgent need of rest.
Second, our company has developed too fast in the past two years and many problems have arisen. We need to stop and rectify the internal situation at the right time to further consolidate the company's strength and strengthen the company's core competitiveness.
Third, in the past two years, we have become very popular in Europe and have become very popular. There have also been some discordant voices in the United States, which have aroused the jealousy of many people. Some people have even proposed launching an investigation into our company.
At the same time, several new military contracting companies were quietly established. According to what I learned, there are quite a lot of backgrounds behind these companies.
In this case, if we want to continue to grow and develop, we need to find a new way to make money, and this trip to Japan allowed me to make new discoveries.
If my plan can be realized smoothly, then our company will have an extremely stable financial source. Moreover, the risk of this new business will be far less than the original one, and the pension we need to pay will definitely be huge. reduce. "
When he heard Fang Lang say that someone had set up a new military contracting company to compete with them, Joseph Clark was ready to stand up and express his attitude that he was not afraid of competition.
He even has a basic understanding of the conditions of those companies. He doesn't think these companies can pose a threat to them.
