The mayor surnamed Zhao had no good way to deal with Zhang Tianhao's aggressiveness. After all, Zhang Tianhao represented the Germans, and he was just a deputy mayor.
In the eyes of ordinary people, power is unattainable, but in the eyes of the Japanese, it is just a dog.
It was the Japanese who informed the city government about this matter. Now the city government has passed the blame to him and asked him to receive Zhang Tianhao and his party.
"Mr. Qin, why don't you make things difficult for me? We are all Chinese and work for the Germans and Japanese respectively. You should know that I was pushed out to entertain you, that is, you are your punching bag. There is nothing you can do about it.
Please be kind and let me go!"
Zhang Tianhao naturally knew what Deputy Mayor Zhao meant. After all, the mayor was Japanese and he was Chinese, and he was also a shield used by the puppet Manchukuo.
"Well, I won't embarrass you. Why don't you give us some benefits? I believe you also know that if you don't get some benefits, everyone will not look good. Don't you think so?" Zhang Tianhao naturally glared at him.
One glance directly stated the purpose.
"These are the guards of Vice-Consul Augustus. You drove them back, but you only took Mr. Augustus away. They will definitely suffer a loss when they go back. Shouldn't they be given some compensation?"
Of course, Zhang Tianhao said this privately in Chinese, and Fred and the other two couldn't understand it at all.
"This, this..."
Vice Mayor Zhao was also in a dilemma. When it came to money, he had to report it to the Japanese mayor.
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
It's not that he wants to give it, but that he can't make the decision. If Zhang Tianhao and the others really want to make a fuss, they won't have face. After all, the Japanese do things and leave others with excuses. No matter which side they are, he can't afford to offend them.
Shortly after Vice Mayor Zhao left, he walked in with a small box in his arms and placed it directly in front of Zhang Tianhao.
"Mr. Qin, our mayor asked me to send this over. He said it was a token of appreciation from our municipal government and asked Mr. Qin to put in a nice word for us."
As he spoke, he pushed the small box directly in front of him.
Zhang Tianhao immediately opened the small box and saw five small yellow croakers lying inside. He obviously wanted one small yellow croaker per person. For him, this cost only two to three hundred yuan, and even the price in U.S. dollars was only about one hundred U.S. dollars.
"Deputy Mayor Zhao, that's not the case. Is your HEB city government so poor? Each of you only has one hundred dollars. My current salary alone is fifty or sixty marks. This is equivalent to several months of my salary. If I
If you work harder, you may only earn a month's income."
"Mayor Zhao, as for their guards, they have various subsidies in Xinjing. They are about twenty-five dollars a month, which is equivalent to four months' salary for them."
"Including various hazard pay for business trips, it's only about two months' salary. If this is just tea money, then I suggest you take it back, really!"
"This..." Vice Mayor Zhao did not expect that Zhang Tianhao and his party would despise the money, and would not even think about it. They would be disgusted with it.
"This is what the mayor asked me to send, Mr. Qin..."
"Vice Mayor Zhao, I won't make it difficult for you. You can take it back. We can't accept it. After all, it really doesn't have much sincerity. If we accept it, it will be a slap in our face and a slap in the face of the German Beijing Office."
Mr. William’s face can’t be justified.”
"this……"
"Deputy Mayor Zhao, take it back. Compared with the punishment they received, I don't need to take such a big risk for this small amount of money. They may return home early, and I have nothing. I may be transferred
Just leave."
"this……"
The thoughts of Deputy Mayor Zhao and even the Japanese mayor were directly revealed by Zhang Tianhao. Originally, he just wanted to use this little money to send Zhang Tianhao away, but now it seems that this is impossible.
"Please accept it, it's a little money for tea!"
"No, I originally thought that everyone would have at least two thousand dollars, but now it seems that you are really not sincere, so I won't embarrass you, just wait here. In addition, as for what happens in the future, I hope you can take care of yourself.
!”
In the end, Zhang Tianhao shied away from this so-called generous gift. There was only a small gold bar, and he couldn't afford it.
At the same time, Zhang Tianhao ordered a meal and slowly sat there and ate it. He did not eat at noon. Vice Mayor Zhao did not embarrass Zhang Tianhao on this point.
…
At the same time, there were about 500 Japanese soldiers who were heading towards Black Tiger Village. After receiving the request from the city government, they had to change direction halfway and head towards the place where Augustus and others were kidnapped.
For this reason, Black Tiger Village has been given at least two or three days. By then, the defense of Black Tiger Village can basically be completed.
The Japanese would not have thought that if they gave up the attack on Black Tiger Village this time, not a single brigade would be able to capture Black Tiger Village the next time, and they would even suffer heavy casualties.
The Japanese soldiers, who had changed their route since about ten o'clock in the morning and headed in the other direction, used all the trucks and headed directly to a hilltop on the other side of the Hulan River.
Even though it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, we still had not arrived. There were already Japanese soldiers and even policemen at the scene of the crime, investigating the surrounding areas.
"Director, these kidnappers have all entered the mountains. We can chase them along the forest. As long as they pass by, they will definitely leave traces, because there are nearly a hundred of them."
A young policeman looked at the scene and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, we can't chase them early. If we chase them early, we may destroy the scene. If something happens, we won't be able to survive. We'd better wait until the Japanese come." The director had no choice.
He's just the director of the Forest District Police Station.
"But if we are slow, these people may escape, so what should we do?"
"You can just run away. It's not something we can control. Don't you have enough brains? If something happens, the Japanese won't take your and my heads to answer. It's better to stay here and ask such stupid questions again."
Get out of here, what the hell!" When the director heard this, he was very dissatisfied.
Similarly, there was already a group of Japanese soldiers here riding motorcycles slowly coming from a distance. When they arrived, they began to command the police.
"How's your check going?"
"I'm sorry, Taijun. Our abilities are limited. Please check with Taijun. Taijun's abilities are great and cannot be compared with ours."
"Baga, when you get here, don't you have a survey site? Are you pigs?"
When the sergeant heard this, he immediately cursed and at the same time assigned his subordinates to start checking.
After a while, his men found the direction in which the bandits were escaping, and led a group of twenty or thirty policemen in pursuit.
The police chief was also helpless. After all, there were dozens of bandits, all of whom were murderous without blinking an eye. They were there to deliver food, but they had no choice but to obey the Japanese's orders.
Seeing the Japanese chasing after him, the director said a few words to a policeman next to him, and then led more than 20 policemen to follow him.
The little policeman was left standing here waiting for the people behind him.
