"I'm telling you, Lao Xian, looking at the attitude of the eldest young master of the Ming family, he is determined to unite with the Gu family to fight against the Japanese!"
After the opening ceremony, Lu Peifu immediately came to Xian Guansheng's side and whispered.
However, Xian Guansheng just glanced at Minglou from a distance, who was chatting and laughing with a group of senior journalists, and said nothing more.
At this moment, a familiar voice rang out, "Hey, Mr. Xian, Mr. Lu, you two are here too! We haven't seen each other for a long time. How are you two?"
As soon as these words came out, both of them turned their heads, and immediately saw Li Qiang, who was dressed in formal attire for the opening ceremony, walking over with a smile.
"Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Brother Aqiang. You entered the prison of the Special High School and came out intact. You are considered the number one." After saying that, Lu Peifu pulled him aside and whispered.
, "But if you did something like this just after you were released, aren't you afraid that the Japanese will settle the score with you?"
Li Qiang put on an air of fearlessness and replied confidently: "What are you afraid of? My elder brother said that from now on, the offense and defense will change. In the past, we were forced by the situation and had to tolerate everything.
But as soon as the war between Japan and Britain and the United States started, the relationship between the Japanese and the new government became subtle. Unless they planned to kill everything and lose everything, as long as we master this 'degree', the Japanese
I can only turn a blind eye."
Although what Li Qiang said was clear and logical, Lu Peifu disagreed very much, "Brother A Qiang, as someone who has been through this, please listen to my advice. It is a good thing that young people have ideas and courage, but don't be too angry."
Sheng. If it goes too far and drives the Japanese into panic, it's no joke."
"Thank you Mr. Lu for your kindness. I understand, but I don't agree with your point of view. The current situation in Shanghai is exactly when someone needs to stand up. And I believe you must have heard about the incident of burning the cruise ship in Taihu Lake.
If I don't stand up, will Li Shiqun let me and the Ming family go? I am doing this to protect myself, Mr. Lu."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Peifu couldn't help but be stunned. After a long while, he continued: "That's true, but..."
"Lao Lu! Stop talking!" Before he could finish his words, Xian Guansheng on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted him, "As the saying goes, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Outsiders like us can't handle other people's affairs.
Stop messing around. In short, if there is any use for us brothers, Brother Aqiang can just ask. Even though we are only a handful of old bones, the blood of this cavity
It’s still hot.”
Lu Peifu on the side nodded quickly after hearing this and said: "Yes, yes, in any case, don't forget us two old guys."
"Two elders are very righteous. With these words from you two, I feel much more at ease."
Just as he was talking, Haitang, who was also dressed up for the occasion, walked over. Although she was a female, she did not feel at all out of place among the high-class dignitaries and social elites. On the contrary, she was very tasteful and neat.
Her dressing style and her innate unique temperament made everyone present shine when they saw her, leaving a very deep impression on people.
Coming closer, Haitang first nodded apologetically to Xian and Lu, and then naturally took Li Qiang's arm and whispered a few words.
"I got it." After saying that, Li Qiang turned to the two people and said, "Sorry, second brother, my elder brother asked me to come over if I have something to do. Please excuse me."
"Brother Aqiang, please excuse me."
…
But when Li Qiang came to Minglou with Haitang on his arm, both of them frowned.
"A Qiang, you came just in time. Let me introduce to you. This is..."
However, before he finished speaking, the man opposite waved his hand and said with a half-smile: "No need, Mr. Aqiang, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. You're welcome!"
"Qian Guanqing? Why is it you?"
Before he finished speaking, Minglou's face sank and he lectured angrily: "A Qiang, what's your attitude? Mr. Qian is the deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper that I paid a lot of money to hire. You should get closer to each other in the future.
, there must be no slightest bit of neglect, do you understand?"
Frankly speaking, Qian Guanqing's ability to stir up public opinion and take advantage of the opportunity to set the pace is indeed top-notch, but for some reason, Li Qiang has always had a deep prejudice against this person, but now that Minglou has already said it
Go up, no matter how reluctant Li Qiang was, he had to bite the bullet, forced out a smile and said to him: "Yes, brother, I understand. Mr. Qian, please give me more advice in the future."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
It was only then that Minglou's face looked much better, and then he brought Li Qiang to the other person's side. This time, Li Qiang's brows furrowed even more tightly.
"A Qiang, this is Zhou Jizhong, Mr. Zhou. He will be the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce in the near future, assisting Uncle Gu in handling the daily affairs of the association."
This time, Li Qiang's reaction was much calmer, and he even couldn't help but joke, "I've long heard that Mr. Zhou is a good hand at managing books, but I didn't expect that he has dabbled in business. It's really a real person who doesn't show his face!"
"Mr. Aqiang, thank you very much. Thanks to Mr. Ming for your love and recommendation many times, it's really hard to refuse the kindness. Only then did Zhou shamelessly accept this job. If I have offended you in the past, please forgive me, Mr. Aqiang."
I apologize here."
Of course, Li Qiang would not completely believe what he said, but in front of so many people, he still had to speak politely, "Mr. Zhou, you are too polite. The current situation is complicated and complicated. It is a time when we are all in the same boat. How can Ming be so careless?"
I just hope that Mr. Zhou can work together with us in the future to maintain this hard-won situation and do more for the Chamber of Commerce."
"sure."
Just as he was talking, Li Qiang suddenly became acutely aware of someone approaching him quickly from behind. Then he subconsciously touched his waist with a hand, but quickly put it down again.
The reason is also very simple, I didn't feel the murderous aura in that person.
At this moment, a hand patted his shoulder, and then a slightly playful voice rang, "Hi! Brother-in-law, do you miss me?"
"Xiao Meng!? Why are you here too? You didn't sneak out, right?" Before Li Qiang could say anything, Haitang beside him said in surprise and joy.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaomeng pouted her lips and replied with an unhappy look on her face: "Sister Haitang, is this the image I have in your eyes? To tell you the truth, I didn't sneak out this time, I just got it right.
Yes! If you don’t believe me, ask Brother Minglou!”
As soon as these words came out, both of them looked at Minglou, who nodded and replied: "Yes, Xiaomeng was appointed by Jiming Temple this time to lead a whole team to the newspaper office, specifically responsible for the newspaper office.
Radio.”
Hearing this, Li Qiang suddenly nodded. It seemed that Wang Jingwei also realized the specialness and importance of this newspaper, so he sent a monitoring team over at all costs. No need to ask, there must be something hidden in this team.
with his eyeliner.
Thinking of this, Li Qiang took the opportunity to pull Minglou aside and lowered his voice and said to him: "Brother, how come Wang Jingwei's spy has been involved? Do you want to start a new one and create a 'new' No. 76?"
Bar?"
However, Minglou just smiled after hearing this, neither admitting nor denying.
Then he pulled him into a private room, and as expected, he saw a familiar figure in the private room.
As soon as the people in the private room saw Li Qiang, they immediately stood up and greeted him warmly: "How are you, Lord Aqiang? My father asked me to say hello to you."
Li Qiang hurriedly bowed in return, "Colonel Mitsui, you are too polite. I heard from the nurse at the hospital that you have returned to China, haven't you? I didn't expect to meet again so soon."
"Yes, I had to go back in order to get married to Junko. I just came back the day before yesterday." Mitsui Juichi said, holding Junko's hand, while Junko on the side blushed with embarrassment.
"Really? Then I have to congratulate you. Don't worry, I will send you my thoughts in the future."
Mitsui Juichi waved his hand, "Forget it about what you think. We are all so familiar with each other, so I can say what I want. I hope that all information collected through newspapers in the future will be reported to me within an hour.
, As for the contents of daily newspapers and radio broadcasts, they do not need to be reported in advance, but detailed records must be left for inquiry, right?"
Before he finished speaking, Minglou immediately nodded and replied: "Don't worry, Colonel Mitsui."
Mitsui Shouichi then turned to look at Li Qiang, "Aqiang-kun, I heard that you and that Li Shiqun have been having a heated argument recently. Is this the case?"
Li Qiang smiled bitterly, "Not only Li Shiqun, but now even Yokota from the extra-high school class has been offended by me."
"It's not your fault. Who makes that old guy Yokota worry about the property on Yuyuan Road all day long? If it were me, I wouldn't just let him go. But having said that, since you have offended these two people,
So what are your plans next?"
"What else can I plan to do? I just have to carry on with it!"
"You don't want to go up against the entire No. 76 and Super High School Class by yourself, do you?"
"That's not true, I'm not that stupid!" Li Qiang replied truthfully, "Everyone with a discerning eye knows that I am in prison for the Zhou family, so when it comes to dying, the Zhou family will not sit idly by and do nothing.
Without the support of the Zhou family, Li Shiqun didn't dare to do anything to me. As for the Special Higher Education Course, to be honest, I really didn't have a good idea before, but it's different now. As long as Colonel Mitsui is willing to take action
, if I help my brother, I can sit back and relax."
Mitsui Shouichi naturally knew that Li Qiang's words were somewhat flattering, but they were still very useful. He immediately laughed in a good mood, "Hahaha, it seems that I came back at the right time!"
"Then how can we call it the right time? It is quite the right time!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Aqiang. It's just a special high school class. I can still deal with it. If they really dare to cause trouble for you, just come to me."
"With your words, I feel relieved."
After talking about the business, the atmosphere in the private room became much more relaxed. After another round of greetings, Li Qiang resigned and left the private room.
However, as soon as he went out, he saw a familiar figure at the door of the auditorium again, so he didn't care about complaining and walked over quickly, "Youcai, why are you here?"
"Director! Thank God I found you. It was Deputy Director Tang who asked me to come."
Deputy Director Tang?
Li Qiang was startled when he heard this, but he quickly realized that since Tang Shengming was labeled as a Chongqing spy last time because of a letter to Dai Li, even though he was immediately removed from the position of director of the Reorganization and Recruitment Committee,
Despite his title, he still retained the position of deputy director of the Suzhou Office of the Qingxiang Committee, so it was not wrong for Zhu Youcai to call him that.
Thinking of this, Li Qiang quickly asked: "What's the matter?"
"Commissioner Chen is coming back from Guangzhou."
"when?"
"Tomorrow afternoon."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang's face suddenly darkened, "Why are you notifying me of such a big matter now?"
Zhu Youcai also looked aggrieved, "Back to the director, it's not that my subordinates didn't come to inform you, it's because they didn't know anything about it. If Deputy Director Tang hadn't gone to his home in person, he would still be kept in the dark.
Woolen cloth!"
"Okay, it seems that Li Shiqun wants to eat alone this time! Then don't blame me for giving you some eye drops." At this point, Li Qiang's eyes rolled and he took it seriously, and then lowered his voice and said to Zhu Youcai.
, "You are talented, but it seems that you have to work hard. Go back immediately and pretend you don't know anything. Don't let anyone see anything. Do you understand?"
"My subordinate understands, what about you, director?"
"Don't worry about this. By the way, when you get back, go to my house and tell Miss Du..."
"Don't worry, director, my subordinates promise to complete the task!"
"Well, go ahead!"
After sending Zhu Youcai away, Li Qiang found Haitang and told him everything Zhu Youcai had just reported to him as well as his plan.
"How about it?"
"It's a good idea, but I always feel like there's still something missing..." After hearing Li Qiang's plan, Haitang held her chin in her hand and pondered for a moment, then a lightbulb suddenly flashed in her mind, "Okay, wait for me.
!”
After saying that, he turned around and got into the crowd. In a short time, he pulled Gu Xiaomeng and ran back.
"What are you doing? Sister Haitang, what's so urgent?"
Li Qiang immediately understood Haitang's intention, and then asked with a smile: "Xiao Meng, how long have you not been home?"
After hearing this, Gu Xiaomeng instinctively took half a step back and asked with a suspicious look on her face: "Why do you ask this?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I haven't visited Uncle Gu for a long time. I happened to have time, so I planned to go and see you and ask if you want to come with us."
