Chapter 375 The undercurrent is surging (please recommend and vote monthly)
At the Consulate General of Japan, Shigeyuki Akagi stood in front of an inconspicuous office, carefully arranged his military uniform, and then carefully knocked on the office door.
Not long after, a deep voice sounded from inside, "Come in!"
Even though he had made sufficient mental preparations, Akagi Shigeyuki still shivered unconsciously after hearing that voice.
But despite this, Akagi Shigeyuki finally took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in.
"Akagi-kun, you failed again!" The deep voice sounded again. Although there was no emotion in the tone, it still made Akagi Shigeyuki feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, and his back was like a thorn in the back.
"I'm humble and incompetent, please forgive me!" Akagi Shigeyuki snapped to attention, lowering his head and admitting his mistake.
"Of course I can forgive you, otherwise I wouldn't have to come all the way from the mainland to see you." The voice continued, "But if I remember correctly, this is the third time you have been defeated there.
Is it on the guy’s hand?”
"Humble job...humble job..."
"Well, since you can't think of a reason, don't waste your time on those meaningless excuses."
"Yes! Don't worry, next time, I will definitely..."
"It's good to be determined, but Akagi-kun, sometimes you have to learn to face reality." The man paused for a moment before continuing, "Why, you still doubt that Aqiang is the 'God of Wealth'?
"
"Yes!" Shigeyuki Akagi said firmly, "Bizhi has found out that Chairman Wei of the Quanye Chamber of Commerce is a member of the God of Wealth Group. Unfortunately, they silenced him first, but this just shows that Bizhi is close to the truth.
."
"Go on!" The man on the other side still sounded cold.
"In order to further confirm my judgment, I have installed a large number of bugs in the Ming Mansion and monitored it around the clock. And just yesterday, the monitoring finally made new progress."
"What progress?"
"He seems to be secretly planning a plan and is about to put it into practice. I think that as long as I continue to closely monitor his next moves, I can know what he is planning and then find out his true identity!
"
As soon as these words came out, the room fell into a strange silence. I don't know how long it took before the man slowly spoke. However, he did not make any comments on Akagi Shigeyuki's plan, but was confused.
He asked politely, "How did you do with that matter?"
"Ah?" Akagi Shigeyuki couldn't help being stunned after hearing this, "Mr. Matsuoka..."
"I asked you, how did you handle that matter?" Before Shigeru Akagi could finish speaking, the man repeated it again, but this time his tone was obviously much more serious than before.
"You... don't worry, Beizhi has secretly opened up all the joints, and the first batch of about thirty carriages of supplies will be shipped on the 6th of next month."
"What about the specific security work?"
"Don't worry, the entire train will be disguised as an ordinary passenger train and will sell tickets normally. Of course, only the first few carriages will be available. My people will also pretend to be passengers and board the train, and I will also accompany them to protect them secretly.
."
It was only then that a rare smile finally appeared on the man's face, "Well, you did a good job. As long as you successfully open up this transportation line, you will have done a great job!"
Speaking of this, the man seemed to suddenly remember something and continued: "Ah, by the way, Akagi-kun, if I remember correctly, you haven't seen your family for more than a year, right?
"
As soon as these words came out, Akagi Shigeyuki's heart "thumped" unconsciously, but he still nodded slowly.
"I have ordered your wife and children to be sent to Ice City. When you complete this task, you can reunite with them."
Akagi Shigeyuki is not stupid. Of course he knows that the reason why that person did this is to use his family as a hostage to prevent him from making any mistakes along the way. Therefore, even though he is very unhappy, he has to show his gratitude.
He said with a look like: "Thank you sir for your consideration!"
And the man was obviously very proficient in the ways of serving his subordinates. After threatening him, he began to make a big deal about him, "Akagi-kun, don't blame me. I have no choice but to do this. Don't worry, as long as you are loyal to me, I will never do it."
I have treated you badly. In addition, I might as well reveal a secret to you in advance. Konoe-kun will soon be back in charge of the cabinet! As for Aqiang-kun..."
Speaking of this, the man paused again, and then slowly said under the puzzled eyes of Akagi Shigeru: "It's better to stop investigating him! Because you have already lost."
…
A few days later, a mourning hall was erected in front of the Ming Mansion.
Mingtang held the urn and walked in under the watchful eyes of relatives and friends on both sides.
Ming Jing sat on a chair, crying sadly.
Of course, she was not acting when she cried. Instead, she felt sad for no reason when she thought that Mingtai would be separated from her, so she cried very naturally. Even Wang Manchun, who had been hiding in the distance and observing secretly, did not
Detect any abnormalities.
But even so, the one who cried the hardest among everyone present was not her, but Axiang. She cried so heartbreakingly that it seemed like her heart was broken.
"Sister, I have taken care of Mingtai's funeral arrangements for him, so don't worry. Things are unpredictable, so take care of yourself." Mingtang said with tears in his eyes as he handed over the box containing Mingtai's "ashes".
Mirror's hand.
Ming Jing hugged the "urn" and burst into tears, "Mingtai, how can you let go of your sister, Mingtai."
Axiang also cried bitterly: "Young master, I don't believe it. The young master will not die. I don't believe it..."
"Axiang!" Seeing that Axiang became more and more excited as she spoke, Li Qiang on the side finally couldn't help but glared at her reproachfully.
Mingtang took the opportunity and said to Mingjing, "Let me see, when Ye Luo returns to his roots, isn't Mingtai's mother buried in his old house in Suzhou? Why not, just send Mingtai back to Suzhou and bury him next to his mother. This can be regarded as letting them
Mother and son are reunited."
Ming Jing was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then agreed with tears in his eyes.
"If you have any more errands to run, just let me know. Don't be afraid of trouble."
Ming Jing said with a tearful voice: "Thank you, brother."
"I will arrange the tickets. When the time comes, I will let you know. Take care of yourself." After saying that, he took A Qiang to greet the guests who came to express their condolences.
So for the next seven days, the crying in Ming Mansion never stopped, and could even be heard from far away.
That scene was simply heart-breaking for those who heard it, and tears for those who heard it.
During this period, a small episode occurred.
That was the day after the mourning hall was built. Minglou came with Wang Manchun to express his condolences, but without even entering the door, the furious Mingjing bombarded him in front of all relatives, friends and newspaper reporters.
When I came out, I saw the news in less than a day, and soon I was wearing it on the beach in Shanghai, and the whole city was in a fuss.
A few days later, just after Li Qiang finally finished busy with Mingtai's "future matters" and came back to work on his first day, he received an uninvited guest.
"Miss Jiang?! I haven't heard from you for so long. I thought you had left Shanghai long ago. I didn't expect to see you here again. Could it be that you want to come back to work?"
Jiang Zheng, who was opposite, smiled and said, "Even if I wanted to, Section Chief Ming wouldn't dare to accept it, would he?"
"Why don't you dare? Let the president of the dignified Ito Chamber of Commerce be your subordinate. It is a very honorable thing to say it out, isn't it?"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Zheng not only did not show the slightest surprise, but showed a look that he had known this for a long time, "It seems that I guessed it right, you have known my true identity for a long time, but are you imagining it?"
When did you discover it?"
"Well..." Li Qiang touched his chin, "It should have been the time when you secretly killed the mother-in-law of the orphanage in order to cooperate with Section Chief Nan Zao's plan to design Acheng!"
Although he was mentally prepared, Jiang Zheng was still shocked, "Since you have figured out my identity so early, why..."
"Why didn't you reveal your disguise?"
Jiang Zheng nodded.
"The reason is simple, because exposing you will not do me any good, but more importantly, I appreciate your ability."
"Really? That little lady is really flattered!" After saying that, he took the initiative to bow to Li Qiang and said respectfully, "Although you already know this, I think we still need to formally get to know each other again.
, My name is Yamazaki, Michiko Yamazaki! Please give me your advice, Chief Ming."
"Don't take advice seriously, Miss Yamazaki, I think you should tell me the purpose of your trip!"
Yamazaki couldn't help but smile after hearing this, "Chief Ming is still so direct. But that's okay, then I'll just say it straight. I came here this time just to take over the Ming family's business in Shanghai in the name of Ito Chamber of Commerce.
"
Hearing this, Li Qiang was a little bit dumbfounded, "Miss Yamazaki, I think you have found the wrong person. I am just the nephew of the Ming family. I can't make the final decision in business matters..."
"No, no, no, no!" However, before Li Qiang could finish his words, Yamazaki immediately shook his finger and interrupted him, "Chief Ming, let's not say anything secretly in front of Ming. Do you really think I don't know? Now
The Ming family is basically an empty shell, and the original industry has been secretly transferred to the Quanye Chamber of Commerce. Am I right?"
"Ms. Yamazaki, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything random, especially if it is related to my reputation. I would like to ask Miss Yamazaki to be more cautious before saying such things."
"Okay, since Section Chief Ming doesn't want to hear this, then I don't have to say it, but I hope you can understand that I come here with great sincerity this time."
"Sincerity?" As soon as he said these words, Li Qiang's eyes immediately lit up, "Then let me see how much sincerity you have."
Hearing this, Yamazaki couldn't help but laugh and said: "I didn't expect Section Chief Ming to be so fickle? Didn't he just keep saying that he couldn't make the final decision in business matters? Why did he seem to have changed into a different person in the blink of an eye?"
However, in the face of Yamazaki's cynicism, Li Qiang remained calm and said plausibly: "Miss Yamazaki, don't get me wrong. What we are talking about now is the business of the Quanye Chamber of Commerce. What does it have to do with the Ming family?"
Yamazaki was not stupid. He naturally heard the implication of Li Qiang's words, so he immediately nodded clearly and clapped his hands. Then four strong men in black suits came out from outside, each carrying a suitcase.
He walked in, put down the box in his hand without saying a word, and then left.
With some difficulty, Yamazaki brought one of the boxes to Li Qiang and opened it. It was filled with golden gold bars!
"How's it going? I think this kind of sincerity should be able to impress you, Chief Ming, right?"
Li Qiang first glanced at the box of gold bars greedily, then couldn't help but sigh, shook his head and said: "Miss Yamazaki, although this gold bar is good, it must have a life flower!"
"Chief Ming, what do you mean?"
"To be honest, before you, there was another person who found me for the same reason. As for that person's name, I think you should know it even if I don't tell you."
"Who is it? Nakajima Nariko?"
However, Li Qiang neither admitted nor denied, but spread his hands helplessly.
"Chief Ming, don't blame me for speaking out. I understand your desire to avoid offending both sides, but how can there be such a good thing in this world? I advise you to see the form clearly as soon as possible, so that you can make the right choice in time, otherwise when the time comes
, I’m afraid you will offend both parties completely!”
"Miss Yamazaki is right. After all, I am still more inclined to cooperate with you, but if you can't handle the other side, then even if I want to cooperate with you, they will try their best to disrupt it..."
"So, you plan to wait until there is an outcome between me and her before making a decision?" Yamazaki said with a gloomy face.
Li Qiang shrugged noncommittally.
"If I'm not wrong, you told her the same thing at the time, right?"
Hearing this, Li Qiang smiled and said, "Miss Yamazaki, I have no choice but to be careful and sail the ten thousand year ship!"
"A cautious person can sail a long-lasting ship. Don't worry, she won't be able to stay in Shanghai for long. As long as she leaves, Nan Zao Yunzi and Wang Manchun will naturally have nothing to fear."
"Really? It seems that Ms. Yamazaki is confident this time! Then I wish you success and success!"
"Farewell!" After saying this, Yamazaki turned around and walked out.
However, as soon as he took two steps, he was stopped by Li Qiang, "Wait a minute, Miss Yamazaki, your box."
"Just leave it here. I have never taken back the things I sent."
Although he knew in his heart that these gold bars were not so easy to get, Li Qiang still nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay! But I have to say this up front. You left these gold bars with me!"
"It's up to you!" After saying that, Yamazaki left without looking back.
And just after Yamazaki left, Li Qiang looked at the golden gold bars and showed a proud smile.
