Ji Quanrong specially dressed up and even had her hair styled by a French hairstylist.

The price charged by this French hairstylist is very expensive. For a simple hairstyle, the price is only five yuan.

But in order to leave a good impression in front of that Japanese beauty, Ji Quanrong spent this money.

He came to the restaurant early.

Several bodyguards were sitting scattered.

These are the bodyguards Wu Sibao personally selected for him.

After waiting there for a while, the waiter opened the restaurant door.

Ji Quanrong's eyes lit up when he saw the people coming in.

Makoto Matsumoto!

Today, Manaiko is wearing a light blue dress and a ponytail, making her look even more pure and beautiful.

She was also holding a bag in her hand.

Ji Quanrong vowed to get this beauty!

"Ms. Matsumoto, please."

Ji Quanrong diligently pulled out the stool.

"Thanks."

Makoto smiled, as charming as she wanted.

Ji Quanrong's heart almost bursts: "Miss Matsumoto, let's see what you need to eat."

"It's all up to Mr. Ji to decide."

Look, look, this is a woman.

I heard that for Japanese women, the man has the highest status in the family!

If you can really get this woman, then your good days will come...

…

Meng Shaoyuan was sitting in the car and saw Zhen Naiko entering the restaurant.

No one is following.

He was a little curious, did Koichi Hahara really let go of Shinoko like that?

…

"Mr. Ji, thank you for the lunch. I'm really sorry."

Makoto put down the knife and fork and took out the bag: "This is a small gift. I hope you don't dislike it."

Ji Quanrong's eyes lit up.

Gift?

A gift from Makoto to herself?

Ah, I am so charming and handsome, how could a little girl like Manaiko resist my charm?

"Thank you so much." Ji Quanrong's hands trembled slightly as he took the bag, "Can I take a look?"

"Of course, Mr. Ji."

Ji Quanrong carefully took out a box from the bag.

A little bit heavy.

He opened the box and was surprised to find that there was a clock inside.

Send the clock...send the clock...

In the minds of Chinese people, "send bell" and "send bell" are homophonic, which is very unlucky.

But Makoto didn't notice at all: "This is our Japanese custom..."

Ji Quanrong still knows some Japanese customs.

Chinese people are very taboo about giving bells, but the Japanese are different.

In Japan, people are keen on giving bells as gifts

Because, in Japanese, the word "clock" is written as "timepiece", which is homophonic with "Dengqing" and "Denghui", and has the meaning of "joyful and auspicious".

At the same time, the bell is a symbol of always moving forward regardless of severe cold or heat throughout the year. Sending a bell has the meaning of motivating the other person to work hard, look ahead, never slack off, and strive for progress.

Thinking of this, Ji Quanrong felt relieved a lot.

What's more, this was given to me by Zhen Naiko.

"Thank you so much." Ji Quanrong collected it solemnly: "Look, Miss Matsumoto also gave me a gift, but I didn't prepare anything."

Makoto smiled: "It doesn't matter. Mr. Ji can also give me a gift when we meet next time."

"sure."

Ji Quanrong wished he could hold Zhen Naizi in his arms right now.

It's a pity that uncle and grandpa have something to do for themselves in the afternoon.

It doesn't matter, since Makoto has taken a fancy to him, are he still afraid that he won't have a chance?

He is about to become the son-in-law of the Japanese colonel...

…

"District Chief Meng, come out."

"Yes, I understand. After Ji Quanrong leaves, drive the car over immediately."

…

"Ms. Matsumoto, I'll see you off."

"Ah, thank you so much. No need. I'm going to buy something and I'll call a rickshaw home later."

"Okay, Miss Matsumoto, see you next time."

…

A car stopped in front of Zhen Naizi, and the door opened: "Do you need me to take you off?"

Zhen Naizi smiled like a flower: "Of course you need it, Shao Yuan-kun."

…

Ji Quanrong rested in the car for a while with his eyes closed, then opened his eyes and saw the gift given to him by Zhen Naiko.

Although this is a Japanese custom, for a Chinese, it is really unlucky.

By the way, I'm going to meet Mr. Yamamoto, the manager of Japan Oil Tanker Corporation in Shanghai, who is a key Japanese economic figure in Shanghai.

On behalf of the Ji family, he went to discuss cooperation matters with Mr. Yamamoto.

Wouldn't it be enough to give this bell to Mr. Yamamoto?

It not only pleases the Japanese customs, but also sends away unlucky things.

Ji Quanrong laughed when he thought of this...

…

"Manako, you rest here for a few days, and I will arrange for you to evacuate Shanghai."

"Shao Yuan-kun, what about you?"

"I have to go back. I'll come with you when I'm done."

…

Sure enough, Nagakei Yamamoto, manager of Japan Oil Tanker Company in Shanghai, was very happy to see the gift from Ji Quanrong.

"Always move forward." Yamamoto Nagakei said with a smile: "Mr. Ji, the bell you gave is very meaningful. It means that we must seize every moment to build a prosperous world.

*Struggle in circles.”

"Yes, Lord Yamamoto."

Ji Quanrong said flatteringly: "This time I am here on behalf of Boss Ji to discuss how to fully cooperate with Japan Oil Tanker Company."

"We attach great importance to Boss Ji's prestige in Shanghai..."

…

"Wu Jingyi..."

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan entered the office, Wu Jingyi pulled him aside and said, "Someone is looking for you."

"Who?"

Wu Jingyi hesitated for a moment and said something in a low voice.

"Ah? Who?"

"real."

Meng Shaoyuan was stunned...

…

"Okay, that's the initial cooperation intention."

Yamamoto Changqing was very satisfied with today's talks. No matter what conditions he put forward, Ji Quanrong always agreed.

It is said that Ji Yunqing was loyal to the Japanese Empire. Now it seems that this is not an exaggeration at all.

Sending a bell does indeed have a good meaning.

"We should have a drink."

Yamamoto Nagakei stood up.

At this moment, there was a sudden "boom" and a violent explosion filled the entire office!

…

On October 29, 1938, a bomb exploded in the office of the general manager of Nippon Tanker Company in Shanghai.

Yamamoto Nagakei, an important economic representative figure of Japan stationed in Shanghai, who had organized two unsuccessful assassinations before the military reunification, was bombed to death.

Also killed in the bombing was Ji Quanrong, the grand-nephew of Ji Yunqing, a Shanghai Youth Gang leader.

It is said that the bomb was hidden in a bell brought by Ji Quanrong.

From another perspective, it is very likely that this was a carefully prepared assassination. Ji Quanrong brought a bomb and met the unsuspecting Yamamoto Changqing.

This person may have been bribed by the military commander a long time ago!

So are there other forces behind him supporting him?

…

"Tell me again, who wants to see me?" Meng Shaoyuan asked with his eyes widened.

Wu Jingyi said word by word:
Chapter completed!
