It should have taken three days to reach Tianjin, but the passenger ship docked at several places and it took three and a half days to reach Tianjin. This was something Zhang Tianhao did not expect.
After all, it was almost October in the blink of an eye, and he left in mid-September. When he arrived in Tianjin, it was already September 29th.
When he set foot on the Tianjin pier again, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mihara-kun, next, do you want to go to Shanghai with me? It is the most beautiful city in China?"
"No need, Mr. Zhi Shu, I want to go to various places to investigate business opportunities. After all, I am a businessman and I want to make money. There are so many people following us. If I don't work hard, so many people will have nothing to eat.
Isn't this sorry for the empire?" Zhang Tianhao smiled and said politely.
"But I can buy you a drink today!"
With that said, he directly made a phone call to Toyoda Rye, the president of Mihara Club's Tianjin branch, and asked him to send someone to pick him up.
"OK!"
…
In a Japanese-style tavern in a Tianjin Concession, Zhang Tianhao looked at Zuo Daoshu, the second lieutenant of the Japanese Military Police sitting in front of him, and couldn't help but laugh.
This time he invited not many people, Uesue Yosuke, Zuo Dao Shu, and this Zuo Dao Shu was the son of Zuo Dao Qianzhui. Although he was a second lieutenant, he still had a lot of power.
"Mr. Zuo Dao, I didn't expect that we would meet again after more than ten years. I didn't expect that if Uncle Hammer hadn't told me that you were in the Tianjin Military Police, I wouldn't have known about it!"
"Mihara-kun, I didn't expect that you actually founded a family business as big as Mihara Club. Uncle Mihara must be very happy in the spirit of heaven."
Zuo Daoshu politely raised his cup and drank directly with Zhang Tianhao.
"I haven't had wine from my hometown for a long time. I even bothered Mihara-kun to bring my father's gift in person. I'm very grateful."
Zhang Tianhao just smiled and looked polite.
"Mr. Zuo Dao, you are too polite. I just can't remember many things from my childhood. If I had known that Mr. Zuo Dao was in Tianjin, I would have come over to see you. We came from the same village and it is rare to see each other.
It can be considered a fate, and we will have more contact with each other in the future."
"Of course!"
When Zhang Tianhao returned to Tianjin, he planned to make friends with Zuodaoshu. It was quite important for him to get to know some people in the Japanese military.
"By the way, Zuo Dao-kun, when did you come to Tianjin?"
"The year before last, because of my meritorious service in suppressing bandits in the Northeast, I was transferred to Tianjin and promoted to second lieutenant. However, I am not as happy as Mihara-kun. However, I am still very happy to meet brothers. Let's drink again."
The wine was over thirty and the food was over five flavors. After an hour and a half, the three of them were much drunker even if it was sake. Even Zhang Tianhao pretended to have drunk too much.
"Zuo Dao-kun, you don't know, I envy you warriors, the elites of the empire. Compared with me, I just feel the smell of copper all over my body. It's really embarrassing."
"Mihara-kun, you are too polite!" Zuo Daoshu also smiled politely, but who can tell who is envious of whom?
"Ueki-kun, Toyoda-kun, whenever I see the mighty and majestic army of the Empire marching past me, I feel envious. I feel extremely proud that the Empire can have such an army. For the Empire
Cheers to this pride."
"Mihara-kun, it is indeed like this. The strength of the empire represents our strength. Cheers to this powerful empire!"
As they drank more and more wine, several people began to stagger around. Even Zuo Dao, Zhi Shu, and Toyota Rye were all heavily drunk, while Zhang Tianhao naturally pretended to be half drunk and half awake.
"Mr. Zhi Shu, Mr. Zuodao, why doesn't the empire include Tianjin as part of the empire? What a pity that such a good city should be taken over by the Chinese. What a pity."
"Haha, if the Chinese occupy it, I believe it will soon belong to the empire. As long as the empire's war machine is running, the whole of China will belong to the empire."
Zuo Daoshu immediately shook his head and said disdainfully.
"Huh, three months. The empire wants to conquer China. Three months at most. Little China is the empire's opponent!"
Zhang Tianhao was also shocked in his heart. Now the Japanese actually put forward the slogan of destroying China in March. Is it so early? But this reporter from "Daily Daily" actually knew about it.
"But I haven't seen any troop mobilization from the empire. Tianjin seems to still have just your army. Isn't it too small?"
"Haha, there are too few troops in Tianjin. Mihara-kun was joking. Just a month ago, a regiment had already stationed in the military camp. With one move, the entire Tianjin will be taken down easily."
"Mr. Zuo Dao, do you know that Axiang is married?" Zhang Tianhao walked over unsteadily, "My heart really hurts. My childhood goddess is actually married!"
Zhang Tianhao seemed not to have heard anything. He held a cup and sat next to Zuo Dao Shuyi, with endless dissatisfaction and pain on his face, and even some tears streaming down his face.
Let’s just change the topic on Zuojima’s tree just now. After all, the Ueki Yosuke opposite is an agent and is quite sensitive to information.
"You said Axiang, Axiang has been married for six years. She got married when she was only 18 years old. I was just a soldier at the time and I didn't get to see her getting married. I didn't expect that you would still miss her now.
"
A lot of memories were recounted, and Zhang Tianhao would drink with Yosuke Ueki from time to time. As for Yosuke Ueki, his drinking capacity was acceptable, but Zhang Tianhao never got any useful information out of him.
However, Zhang Tianhao was still wary of the increase in Japanese troops in Tianjin.
In this way, the four of them drank here until all four of them fell down and even talked drunkenly. However, Zhang Tianhao also pretended to be drunk and fell into the Tatami pit and fell asleep.
The other three people were the same, and they all fell asleep.
In this tavern, there are quite a lot of guests sleeping here. It is obvious that this tavern is used to drunk people sleeping here.
As Zhang Tianhao was half asleep and half awake, the night passed like this, and he realized that he was still a little worried. After all, the three of them slept like dead dogs, and did not move at all in the middle of the night, not even going to the toilet.
Apparently drunk.
After walking out of the tavern, Zhang Tianhao stretched himself, and then walked out casually. As for the three people here, I believe they will leave automatically after waking up.
Similarly, not long after Zhang Tianhao left, the three people woke up one after another, walked out of the tavern, and went to find their mothers.
Zhang Tianhao also left the Japanese Concession, and he changed into another identity, an ordinary student, and walked to Warehouse No. 13 on the dock. Before going to Nanjing, he had asked Zuo Hu to buy a batch of fabrics for him.
Then store it here.
"Master, are you here?"
"Well, Ahu, thank you for your hard work. By the way, how many goods have you received in the past half month?"
"Not many, only more than 300 pieces. After all, I have to receive the goods, so I can only do it secretly. I can't put it in the open, otherwise it will attract others' attention."
