Chapter 506: Bear the humiliation and bear the burden(1/2)
The Japanese army occupied Nanjing, but the reconstruction of its secret service was still very slow.
What is needed now is not a secret service, but blood and death permeating the city.
The whole of Nanjing fell into a miserable hell on earth...
…
From the first day when the Japanese army entered Nanjing, Ren Yinghao always behaved very calmly.
He was not ready to leave the city.
He has to help Boss Meng take care of the property here and complete the tasks assigned to him by Boss Meng.
A Japanese flag is hung at the entrance of Henglong Company.
There is also a banner written in Japanese:
"Welcome the Japanese Empire to capture Nanjing"!
…
Ren Yinghao heard gunshots, roars, and desperate screams outside.
He closed his eyes and didn't say a word.
There was a loud banging on the door from outside.
Ren Yinghao quickly stood up.
"Boom"!
The door was smashed open, and a guy who was about to open the door clutched his stomach and fell to the ground screaming.
A bayonet penetrated his stomach.
Several murderous and vicious Japanese soldiers, led by a second lieutenant, rushed in.
They will not choose to believe just because of a Japanese flag or a banner with Japanese written on it.
"My own people, my own people!"
Ren Yinghao hurriedly shouted in unskilled Japanese.
The second lieutenant stopped his soldiers with a wave of his hand.
He came to Ren Yinghao and looked at the young man up and down.
"Sir, we are one of our own, one of our own." Ren Yinghao nodded and bowed, took out a cigarette: "Sir, you smoke."
The second lieutenant took the cigarette, and Ren Yinghao struck the match enthusiastically and got closer, but was caught off guard and was slapped firmly by the second lieutenant.
Ren Yinghao was beaten so hard that stars appeared in his eyes.
The second lieutenant yelled: "Baga, you are a Chinese pig."
"Yes, I am a Chinese pig." Half of Ren Yinghao's face was red, but he didn't care: "But Henglong Company has a very happy cooperation with the Empire of Japan. Hangzhou, Songping Co., Ltd., our trade cooperation
Partner. Matsudaira Ino, our friend."
"What's up?"
A major came in with several more Japanese soldiers.
"Your Excellency, Major." The second lieutenant hurriedly stepped forward: "This Chinese man said that he is a trading partner of Hangzhou Songping Co., Ltd., and said that a man named Songping Ino is his friend."
Given his class, it is certainly impossible for him to know any Matsudaira Ino.
The major was covered in blood, and he probably had just killed a lot of people. When he heard the name "Matsuhira Ino", his attitude suddenly changed: "Are you a friend of Matsudaira's family?"
"Yes, yes." Ren Yinghao said quickly: "Matsuhira Ino, our friend, a very good friend, you can go investigate. If what I say is false, you can chop off my head."
"Very good, I will investigate. If what you say is true, the friends of the Matsudaira family are our friends." The Major patted Ren Yinghao on the shoulder: "Stay here and don't go out. It's very dangerous outside."
Danger."
"Yes Yes."
Ren Yinghao nodded and bowed and sent away these ferocious Japanese. Before he could take a breath and ignore the guy who had just been killed, he quickly called another guy:
"Quickly, make another banner and write 'Matsudaira-sama's partner'."
…
Relying on the name of the Songping family, Ren Yinghao and his Henglong Trading Company successfully escaped the terrible disaster.
From this moment on, he began to quietly accept refugees from Nanjing.
According to statistics, from the fall of Nanjing to the end of December, Ren Yinghao took in a total of 153 Nanjing refugees in Hang Lung Company.
Not much, but he did his best.
Similarly, during this period, he entertained more than fifteen batches of Japanese executioners. It was not just simple entertainment, but also good wine and delicious food.
The name of Henglong Company near Jiangnan Gongyuan in Nanjing soon spread among the Japanese army.
Although everything nearby was completely destroyed by the Japanese, Hang Lung Company was not damaged at all.
Some greedy Japanese officers would always come to Heng Lung Company to have a meal and then continue to carry out their bestial behavior.
But they never would have thought that there were a large number of Nanjing refugees hiding in the caves just a few rooms over.
Every time, Ren Yinghao was always on tenterhooks, fearing that something might happen that the Japanese would notice.
There are about a hundred people, and their lives are all in their own hands.
He really admired Boss Meng. He had guessed early on that once the city of Nanjing was captured, the Japanese army would definitely burn, kill and loot in the city and do all kinds of evil.
But what impressed him most was how could Boss Meng think of using Matsudaira Co., Ltd.'s brand as a shield? If the Japanese really went to investigate, wouldn't it be exposed?
But what he never expected was that this... this was actually true!
The Japanese and Hangzhou authorities have verified that Heng Lung is indeed a trading partner of Matsudaira Co., Ltd., and at the end of December, Matsudaira Ino personally sent people to Nanjing to demand full protection for Heng Lung Company and to stop being harassed.
.
The Japanese attach great importance to a large aristocratic family like the Matsudaira family, and immediately ordered a strict ban on further harassment of the Heng Lung Company.
From this time on, no more Japanese came to Hang Lung to drink.
Boss Meng, how the hell did you do it?
At this point, Ren Yinghao couldn't help but curse.
…
Japanese Matsudaira Ino owes US$110,000, with a monthly interest of three cents, plus interest... The debtor, Matsudaira Ino, is willing to mortgage the Matsudaira Co., Ltd., the Matsudaira family's property, and the aristocratic title he will inherit in the future...
Mahjong is really fun...
…
Ren Yinghao suddenly transformed into one of the first and most famous traitors after the fall of Nanjing.
That was January 1, the first day of 1938.
Ren Yinghao hurried back from outside. The tragedy all over the city made him unwilling to stay one more step.
"Sir, sir."
Someone suddenly stopped him.
"What's up?"
Ren Yinghao stopped.
"Are you Mr. Ren Yinghao and Ren?"
"it's me."
"I was asked to bring this to you."
"Oh, what?" Ren Yinghao came over.
But at this moment, a sack suddenly pulled out of him from behind, and then a brick knocked him to the ground.
Several people were punching and kicking the sack. Ren Yinghao heard those people yelling: "Traitor, traitor!"
"Japanese, run quickly."
Ren Yinghao knew those people had escaped.
The military leather boots kicked him: "Hey, are you dead?"
Speaks in Japanese.
Ren Yinghao got out of the sack and struggled to get up. His head was bruised, his body was covered in scars, and one of his teeth was knocked out.
"Mr. Ren?" The Japanese officer leading the team once drank at Henglong Company and recognized Ren Yinghao at a glance: "Those Chinese people did it. I will help you catch them now."
"Forget it."
Ren Yinghao felt that his right arm seemed to be broken, and he smiled bitterly: "No need to trouble the imperial army."
…
