The weather is getting hot.

Meng Shaoyuan wore a cotton and linen short-sleeved shirt from the American brand Chromos, a pair of crisply pressed trousers, and a pair of black and white leather sandals.

Of course, a fashionable straw hat is essential.

Wearing a pair of small round sunglasses and holding a brown briefcase in his left hand, he looked very stylish.

Song Pingyi was short in stature and looked a little pale. When Li Liangde finished his introduction, he immediately bowed slightly: "Mr. Cheng, welcome to Hangzhou."

"You're so polite, Mr. Matsudaira. This is really a very beautiful city." Meng Shaoyuan kept talking, and occasionally used a few English words to show that he had studied in the United States.

Matsudaira Ino invited them in, sat down, and asked eagerly: "Mr. Cheng, have you brought the things?"

"Of course." Meng Shaoyuan patted the briefcase he was carrying: "Where's the money?"

Matsudaira Ino turned around and took out a stack of Japanese yen: "Twenty thousand yen, all are here."

Good guy.

The initial purchase price is 20,000 yen.

Meng Shaoyuan knew that the purchasing power of the Japanese yen at this time was still very strong, and the largest denominations of banknotes in circulation were 10 yuan and 20 yuan.

However, such an important piece of national defense information was actually sold by the Cheng family for 20,000 yen. How cheap was it?

Meng Shaoyuan showed a greedy expression on his face. He counted them carefully and after confirming that they were correct, he handed over the briefcase in his hand.

Matsudaira Ino couldn't wait to open his briefcase, took out the documents, checked them carefully, and stood up: "Please wait a moment, Mr. Cheng, Mr. Li."

Li Liangde glanced at Meng Shaoyuan with approval in his eyes.

Meng Shaoyuan's performance was very relaxed and comfortable, and he played the role of a playboy who is pretentious and greedy for money.

If it were me, I wouldn't have any doubts about his identity.

After a while, Matsudaira Ino came back and sat down: "Mr. Cheng, this is our first cooperation. It is very pleasant. How is your father's health?"

"Fortunately, I'm just always annoyed by those old guys from the Ministry of Finance."

Meng Shaoyuan took out his cigarette case: "Smoking?"

"Thanks."

Meng Shaoyuan handed out a cigarette, took out one himself, flicked it on the cigarette case, took out the cigarette holder, put it on, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled the smoke: "If you ask me, those old guys should have stepped down long ago.

, I don’t know anything about economics. When I was studying in the United States, I focused on this. I have my own opinions on how to revitalize the country’s economy..."

He was making nonsense nonsense, and it was very confusing and mysterious.

If Li Liangde on the side hadn't been on a mission, he would have laughed out loud on the spot.

Matsudaira Ino had known for a long time that Meng Shaoyuan had studied in the United States and bought a diploma from a pheasant university. He had no real qualifications at all.

Now watching Meng Shaoyuan's performance, there is no longer any doubt about his identity.

Not to mention, this person was personally picked up by Li Liangde, a Chinese friend of the Songping family.

Meng Shaoyuan was eloquent, ranging from economic analysis of the United States to China's economy, from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, with constant fallacies and absurd remarks.

Why do those cultural relics in the Forbidden City have to be sold to foreigners, and then buy machines from foreigners to revitalize the economy, and then buy back the cultural relics when the country becomes strong? There are endless unbelievable "high ideas".

After blowing for almost an hour, Matsudaira Yinan couldn't stop yawning, and he finally found a way to find out: "Ah, Mr. Cheng's insights are really impressive. Although I am Japanese, after all, I am in Hangzhou. In order to welcome Mr. Cheng

, I will prepare a small banquet, and Mr. Cheng will definitely appreciate it if I pay it off."

"I will definitely not refuse Mr. Matsudaira's invitation. I absolutely love banquets."

Matsudaira Ino himself is a person who likes to enjoy himself. In order to win over the relationship with the Cheng family, this time he invited a chef from the Hangzhou Building to cook.

This outer building can be regarded as a time-honored restaurant in Hangzhou. It was founded in the 28th year of Daoguang's reign in the Qing Dynasty. Most of Hangzhou's famous dishes come from this restaurant.

The wine was chilled "Shen Yonghe" brand rice wine.

The famous Shen Yonghe rice wine was founded in the third year of Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty. It has the longest history in Shaoxing's wine making industry.

In 1910, Shen Yonghe represented Shaoxing rice wine and won the first gold medal for Shaoxing wine at the "Nanyang Industry Encouragement Meeting".

Ino Matsudaira first came to Hangzhou and tasted Shen Yonghe brand rice wine for the first time. He immediately fell in love with its taste, so much so that he rarely drank Japanese sake from then on.

After two toasts there, Mr. Songping Yi was afraid that "Cheng Yinju" would talk loudly about his so-called economic opinions: "I wonder what hobbies Mr. Cheng had when he was studying in the United States?"

"Party and beautiful women."

Meng Shaoyuan knew that at this time, it was time to show his playboy side: "American banquets are the best banquets. American women are open-minded women. Every year, in the summer of the United States, there are people everywhere on the beach.

She is a beautiful woman. Ouch, the swimsuit she is wearing is generous and generous, showing off the beauty of a woman’s body curves. It’s not like us Chinese women, who even wrap themselves up tightly in the summer, for fear of exposing even a little bit.”

"I'm afraid Mr. Cheng may have misunderstood him because he has been in the United States for a long time."

Li Liangde said with a smile: "Since the establishment of the Republic of China government, the feminist movement has been in full swing, and the status of women has been greatly improved. Among other things, in the summer, Chinese women can enter the swimming pool, have swimsuits, and can show off their female curves.

beauty of."

He said this deliberately to make it appear that "Cheng Yinju" had been staying abroad all year round and was no longer familiar with domestic affairs.

"Really?" Meng Shaoyuan did not hide the lustful expression in his eyes: "Then I must see it sometime. I didn't expect Chinese women to dress up like this... Ouch, it's incredible, it's incredible... Speaking of

In the United States, the casino industry is also very prosperous, and this casino will also bring prosperity to the local economy..."

When the word "economy" was mentioned again, Matsudaira Ino trembled with fright and quickly stopped him: "Mr. Cheng also likes to gamble a lot?"

"Yes, yes. But my luck is not particularly good."

"What about Mahjong? Does Mr. Cheng like Mahjong?"

"Mahjong? Ouch, that's the best." Meng Shaoyuan's eyes lit up when he heard the word "Mahjong": "When I was in China, most people liked to play mahjong. Unfortunately, when I came to the United States, most people played mahjong.

There are really too few people.”

Matsudaira Ino was addicted to mahjong and was hooked: "How about, after we finish eating, I can play a few rounds with Mr. Cheng?"

"no!"

Meng Shaoyuan said categorically, and before Matsudaira Ino could show his disappointed expression, he continued: "How many laps are enough? I would say at least sixteen laps, and it is best to play from afternoon to early morning to enjoy it."

What are you doing? What does Master Meng want to do? Play mahjong?
