you are lying!

When you said "we had dinner together", your tone was too calm, even a little low.

For Japanese civilians, having dinner with a nobleman is something worth showing off for a lifetime, especially when it is in front of a member of the Matsudaira family, it will never appear in the tone.

There is only one possibility, he is not confident enough!

When he said the words "Excuse me, Mao-sama, are you okay now?", he swallowed quietly after finishing speaking.

That's because you feel guilty and worry that your words will be exposed.

"Sir Mao" was said twice in total. Although it was said very coherently, when it came to "Zhenyang", the tone became slightly heavier, while "Sir" returned to the original tone.

That is subconsciously encouraging yourself and convincing yourself of the existence of this person!

Are you sure this person exists?

There is no such thing as "Mao Matsudaira"?

Is Shidaohuan testing himself?

That’s right!

There is a high probability that this is the case.

Ishishima Hiroshi had never met anyone from the Matsudaira family, but he could not tell the truth from the false, so he deliberately named "Lord Mao" as a fictional character.

Meng Shaoyuan's mind was spinning rapidly, but he kept sneering, making Shi Daokuan confused as to what he was thinking about.

The judgment is basically certain, but you must leave yourself a way out.

"I don't know Mr. Mao. I have never even heard of Mao Matsudaira." Meng Shaoyuan said coldly: "The surname Matsudaira has a special meaning and symbolizes nobility. So there are always a few untouchables.

, trying every possible means to establish a relationship with the Matsudaira family..."

A name emerged in Meng Shaoyuan's mind:

Takahashi Iemasa!

The Japanese royal baron who went to Nanjing to rescue Matsumoto Jiro!

"It's not just the Matsudaira family, the Ii family, and the Takahashi family as well." Meng Shaoyuan kept sneering: "Last month, before I came to China, I visited Baron Takahashi Iemasa, and the Baron also mentioned this matter.

…”

The Takahashi family is coming to China, and these Japanese spies must know it.

Sure enough, when they heard the name "Takahashi Iemasa", Ishishima Hiroshi and others suddenly became solemn.

Meng Shaoyuan was already very sure in his heart: "What happened to the Baron was even more ridiculous. Someone once used his name to defraud a company of 50,000 yen. This incident brought great damage to the reputation of the Baron."

Hurt. Therefore, Director Ishijima, I suggest you carefully examine the identity of the so-called 'Mao Matsudaira'!"

He can tell whether a person is lying, and he also knows how to tell a lie well.

It is impossible for Shi Daohuan to know about the Takahashi family.

If you tell someone "use of identity" in advance, people's psychology will naturally be led to think that since the other party has taken the initiative to tell this matter, it is a kind of magnanimity, and they are dismissive of the use of identity, which will lead to a sense of

A wonderful sense of trust.

Of course, if there really is such a person as "Mao Matsudaira", I can deny that he has any relationship with the Matsudaira family.

Even if Shi Daohuan wanted to investigate the authenticity of his identity, it would take several days.

How many days?

enough.

"Ah, so that's it?" Shi Daohuan said with a look of shock and anger: "No wonder, when he was leaving that time, he asked me to borrow a sum of money. It turned out to be a liar. Mr. Matsudaira

, I am so ashamed. The monetary loss is nothing at all, but if it brings reputational damage to the Matsudaira family, I can only atone for it by committing seppuku!"

Meng Shaoyuan's guess was not wrong.

Ishishima Hiroshi deliberately made up the fictional character "Mao-sama" to test "Shun Matsudaira".

If "Shun Matsudaira" says that he knows "Lord Mao", then this is definitely a fake.

Shi Daokuan's doubts were basically dispelled.

Very good.

Zhengjin Bank is originally a joint venture between government and businessmen. If you can get to know these big nobles, it will not only be beneficial to the bank, but your own status will also be greatly improved.

These Japanese privileged classes are not only exempt from tax on any of their own industries, but also once they invest in a company, the company's taxes can also be greatly reduced.

This benefit is indescribable.

"Okay, stop talking about these scammers." Meng Shaoyuan looked impatient: "I have a sum of gold that needs to be temporarily deposited in your bank..."

"Sir Matsudaira, it is my honor to serve you. Can I take the liberty of asking the doctor, how much is the approximate number?"

"Three thousand taels!"

"Three thousand taels?" Shi Daokuan took a breath of air.

"This is a secret fund." Meng Shaoyuan's expression became solemn: "Conquering the entire China is the most urgent goal of the empire. And to conquer China, we must start with buying off the senior officials of the China government... This is the only thing I can tell

your."

Shi Daokuan didn't have the slightest doubt.

"The country's financial pressure is very heavy." Meng Shaoyuan looked worried: "In order to ensure the conquest of China, this year, the empire's military budget has accounted for 47% of the national budget. Last year, the average annual income of the empire's citizens

The income is 166.5 yen, but taking Tokyo as an example, the average citizen’s expenditure to maintain the minimum living standard is 109.2 yen..."

Now, if anyone says that the "Shun Matsudaira" in front of him is fake, Shidao Kuan will definitely slap him in the face.

He has a clearer understanding of Japan's economic research than I, a finance professional.

If you weren't a big noble, how could you have such top-secret and detailed information?

What Meng Shaoyuan was most grateful for at this time was probably the small glasses.

Little Glasses was a good gay friend of his own time.

His surname is Wang, and he is a military fan. He especially likes to study everything about China and Japan before and after World War II, including their national conditions, military and economy.

At every gathering, he would bring up the topic and talk about it for hours.

Meng Shaoyuan himself was also interested and remembered everything firmly.

Today, it finally comes in handy.

"So, in order to raise this batch of gold, we spent a lot of effort. The Matsudaira family, the Ii family, and the Takahashi family all donated money."

Meng Shaoyuan emphasized his tone: "I was ordered to come to Shanghai first with the gold. I will deposit this gold in your bank, Zhengjin Bank, which cooperates closely with the government. We all trust it. But you must remember to keep it confidential, especially

We cannot let those in the Ministry of Navy and Foreign Affairs know this news..."

The factions of Japan's secret service are at work again.

Ishishima Hiroshi is a spy belonging to the chaebol faction, so of course he knows the stakes: "Don't worry, Matsudaira-sama, no one will know except those in this room."

"That's good." Meng Shaoyuan and Zhu Yanni stood up together: "I will come with the gold at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow. You should open the door early and prepare. Don't come out to greet me to avoid attracting attention!"
