As time goes by, New Year's Day in 1940 is getting closer. In a elegant room in Mulan Society, Ning Zhiheng and Kyosa Yuki were sitting opposite each other.

Kagesa Yuki took a sip of tea, put the teacup in his hand on the table, and said to Ning Zhiheng with a smile: "Kun Fujiwara, we have been preparing for this New Year's Day dinner for the new government for a long time, and important personnel from all departments will attend. I want to invite you to the banquet to strengthen our Mei agency. You have to give me this face!"

Because this New Year's Day was the first major festival after the establishment of the pseudo-government, Wang Baihai was preparing to hold a large banquet in order to embellish the peace and invited senior officials from all walks of life in Shanghai.

However, the local Japanese forces in Shanghai were quite rejected by the pseudo-government, and there were few invitations to the pseudo-government, which was really dull. So, as the founder of the pseudo-government, the Kyozo Agency actively came forward to invite all senior Japanese leaders, among which, as a representative figure of local forces, Fujiwara Tomohito, the president of Fujiwara Society, was naturally the top priority.

Kagesa Yuki knew that as long as Fujiwara Tomori comes to attend the New Year’s Day banquet, all forces behind him would follow him, so he was the first to find Fujiwara Tomori and invite him in person.

Ning Zhiheng naturally was unwilling to attend such a large banquet. Not only was the staff complicated, but the pseudo-government would definitely have many newspaper reporters present for publicity, so it is inevitable to take photos. Ning Zhiheng has always paid great attention to his image not being spread on a large scale, so he almost did not participate in such activities except for banquets held by people close to him.

He had refused many such activities before, so among the senior executives in Shanghai, everyone knew that Fujiwara Tomohito was a very low-key person, and Kagesa Yuki knew this, so he came to the door in person and invited him again and again.

Ning Zhiheng hesitated for a moment, and secretly felt embarrassed. After all, Hiroki Kyosa was a military member of the Central China Expeditionary Army. He had a respectable status, to some extent, not inferior to Junping Uehara. He came to invite him in person, and he really couldn't help but sell his face.

After thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded and agreed, "Okay, General Yingzuo has opened his mouth. Of course I will not refuse, so I will definitely go there at that time."

"That's great, thank you very much!" Kagesa Yuki smiled happily, feeling overjoyed, and the smile on his face added a little more.

Over the past period of time, his secret talks with the pseudo-government have been progressing smoothly. The contract negotiated was extremely beneficial to the Japanese side. The base camp expressed great recognition and commended his work. Kagesa Yuki was naturally in a very good mood.

He then smiled with interest and said, "By the way, have you ever been to Qingdao since Fujiwara Junjin came to China?"

"Qingdao?"

Ning Zhiheng looked surprised, as if he didn't understand what Yingsa Yuki meant, shook his head and said, "After I came to Shanghai from my hometown, I stayed in southern China for a while. As for the northern region, you know, China is too big."

Of course, Hiroki Kagesa knew that Ning Zhiheng had never been to Qingdao, and he was quite familiar with the history of Tomohito Fujiwara, so he continued: "Is Fujiwara Jun interested in going to Qingdao? Qingdao has beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. It can be called the best in northern China. If you have the opportunity, you can still visit it!"

Ning Zhiheng was moved by the words of Kyosa Yuki, but asked strangely: "Why, General has a trip to Qingdao recently? But you are busy with official business, so I'm afraid you don't have time to play with me, right?"

Kagesa Yuki smiled and said, "That's the matter. We have negotiated with North China. This time, the venue for the new government's tripartite convergence meeting was set in Qingdao. This location is very moderate, and it is very convenient to travel between Peking and Shanghai. I thought that if Fujiwara Jun had nothing to do, he would go for a tour with me."

Ning Zhiheng heard this, his face looked quite interested and said, "I often hear people say that Qingdao is the number one tourist attraction in China. It is known as green mountains, green trees, blue sea and blue sky. He has long wanted to visit it, but it has always been a trivial matter. If you have the chance, you can go and see it, but..."

Speaking of this, his tone was lengthening, obviously a little worried, and he said, "It's the territory of General Tuhara. We were a little unhappy before. I wonder if we will meet this time? Otherwise, it would be a little embarrassed!"

Kagesa Yuki quickly waved his hand and said, "Fujiwara, you are too worried. With your identity and status, does Takahara still dare to make things difficult for you?"

This time, Kagesa Yuki intends to invite Fujiwara Tomohito to Qingdao, and he has his own little plan. After all, it is the territory of the North China Front Army, so he will inevitably lose in his momentum when he goes there, especially when facing his old opponent, Keiji Tuhara, I am afraid that the other party will really embarrass him and suffocate his own spirit.

You should know that the Japanese military's North China and Central China have always had constant conflicts, conflicts, intrigues, and conspiracies and plots have emerged one after another. Kagesa Yuki himself really couldn't figure out where the other party's bottom line was. This time he took Fujiwara Tomohito, and with his identity as a direct descendant of the Fujiwara family, Keiji Tuhara would also be concerned about it, and at least he would have less trouble.

Ning Zhiheng was interested in this meeting. If he could experience it personally and obtain the latest information, it would be the best, especially if he could carry a high-power radio station openly and report the latest situation to Chongqing as soon as possible. Hiroki Kaeda's invitation is a rare excuse.

So he thought about it, nodded and agreed, "Okay, since the general invites me, I will go and take a look, but when is the specific time? I also need to arrange the work of the company."

When Kagesa Yuki heard Ning Zhiheng agree, he was excited and quickly said, "It's about the 20th next month, I will arrange everything for Fujiwara Jun in advance."

No. 20!

Ning Zhiheng was delighted that the pseudo-government's three-party converged meeting was planned to be held in Qingdao. He had known this news for a long time and had reported it to the headquarters of the Military Affairs Bureau.

However, the headquarters of the bureau still lacks more detailed information, so the bureau repeatedly asked him to investigate the details as soon as possible and determine the time and specific location of the meeting. Today, the arrival of Hiroki Kagesa has saved him a lot of effort.

His eyes rolled, his face showed a look of yearning, and he said with a little excitement: "I have always been famous for the sea view of Qingdao for a long time. This time I went there, I chose a hotel near the sea to watch the sunrise and set in the morning and evening. It was a unique atmosphere."

Kagesa Yuki laughed and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Fujiwara Jun's words are very good. Qingdao Huiying Hotel is the most luxurious hotel in the area. It is close to the seaside and has pleasant scenery. Moreover, it is our overseas Chinese gathering area and the confidant of the garrison. There is no problem with safety. At that time, I will leave a top-floor room for Fujiwara Jun, which will definitely make your trip worthwhile!"

Everything was clear. Ning Zhiheng was already confident at this time that the Huiying Hotel was the meeting place. According to Hiroki Kaesa, the Huiying Hotel is very suitable for the meeting in terms of hardware and safety. I think it would be impossible to make a mistake.

Once the time and location are found, there is still nearly one month before the meeting is held. In this way, the bureau headquarters has enough time to prepare and plan, and I believe that effective measures will be formulated.

Ning Zhiheng nodded and said happily: "Then we'll make up, and I'll go and relax. To be honest, the environment here in Shanghai is getting worse and worse, and the public security is becoming more and more deteriorating, which disappoints me very much. It's also considered a major place in central China, but in terms of public security, it's still far less than Wuhan on the front line and Hong Kong on the southern front line!"

When Kagesa Yuki heard this, his face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He also knew that Tomohito Fujiwara was an unintentional word, but the bad public security in Shanghai was all because of the pseudo-government's stay in Shanghai. He had to say: "Please rest assured that Fujiwara Jun, this situation will improve soon, but I have a suggestion!"

"What proposal?" Ning Zhiheng looked at Kyosa Yuki in surprise.

"Kun Fujiwara, you also know that Nanjing is now working on the arrangement of a new government and the war is delayed. Our Central China has decided to move the command center to Nanjing. At present, all departments have begun to move, and many departments have even started to work in Nanjing.

It can be said that in the future, Nanjing will be the center of our economy and politics in central China, and it is our Kyoto Agency. We will soon move to Nanjing. Fujiwara Jun, I suggest that you can also stay in Nanjing. In this way, you and General Uehara can meet day and night, and everyone will take care of each other. Many things can be convenient for communication. This will also be conducive to the development of Fujiwara Club. This is a good thing that can kill both birds with one stone!"

Ning Zhiheng naturally considered this matter for a long time. It has to be said that in the years that in the future, Nanjing, as the command center of the pseudo-government and the Japanese Central China Front Army, had surpassed Shanghai's political status and strategic value. He had long wanted to open up a situation there, so it was imperative to enter Nanjing.

Moreover, the situation in Shanghai has stabilized, and there is no need to stay in Shanghai at all times. It seems that we must strengthen the strength of Fujiwara Club in Nanjing, and some work must be done in advance.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "What the general said is that I have thought of this for a long time. It's just that Shanghai is my foundation. Many things need to be done step by step. I will gradually arrange them in the future. When I arrive in Nanjing, I will ask you to take care of you!"

Kagesa Yuki laughed and replied cheerfully: "Haha, Fujiwara Jun is so polite! You and I are moving forward and retreating together, so please take care of me."
Chapter completed!
