Government Office, Secretariat of the Department of Economic Affairs.
Although they had been busy all night, the secretaries in the office still did not dare to neglect at all and were busy all the time.
"Secretary Liu, here are the detailed information of the Preparatory Committee of China Reserve Bank. Find out all the key points and mark them clearly. I want to see your handwriting."
"Secretary Li, I have asked Mr. Ming to review the budget for the Peace Conference. What Mr. Ming means is that it will be reduced by 20% on the basis of the total amount. Security, shipping, and administrative expenses will also need to be treated in the same way.
Remember, it doesn’t matter if it’s low, it’s not high.”
"Secretary Chen, give me a schedule of meetings that Mr. Ming needs to attend next week. For each meeting, prepare a speech first and let me take a look."
Ah Cheng arranged the work of other people in the secretariat in an orderly manner, and at the same time quickly and accurately classified documents and bags of archives neatly and clearly.
But when he saw the timetable handed over by Secretary Chen, he couldn't help but frown, and said strangely: "Peacefully build a new Shanghai dance? Organizer: No. 76? A dance on the 76th? This thing sounds new.
!”
After that, he got up with the timetable and knocked on the door of the Minglou office.
However, after listening to Cheng's report, Minglou was not surprised at all, "Although this dance is nominally hosted by No. 76, it is actually under the instruction of the Special High School, otherwise it would not be held at
The purpose of the Marine Club is to strengthen the unity and cooperation between the Japanese and the Wang puppet government. It can also be considered as a wish for the successful convening of the so-called 'Peace Conference'."
"Hmph!" Acheng snorted coldly after hearing this, "The demons and ghosts all appeared together. I really want to take this opportunity to kill these traitors in one go!"
Minglou smiled, "The idea is worth encouraging, but this dance is temporary in nature, and the people present are all small fish and shrimps. Aren't we also attending as representatives of Mr. Zhou? Good steel needs to be used.
Only on the edge of the knife."
Having said this, Minglou paused for a moment, and then continued his instructions: "Go to Lao Fengxiang Silver House to pick out a piece of jewelry for Wang Manchun. You can buy anything except rings."
"What about the price?"
"It's up to you."
"Okay." Cheng nodded.
"In addition..." Minglou deliberately lowered his voice, "Publish the newspaper and ask Uncle Li to meet at the Duolun Road Cafe at eight o'clock next Saturday night."
"yes!"
Before he finished speaking, the phone on Minglou's desk suddenly rang.
"Hello? It's me... it's... um... okay... Sir, don't worry, Minglou will do his best to do the reception work!"
After hanging up the phone, Cheng immediately cast a questioning look.
Minglou did not hide anything, "The Hong Kong-based Quanye Chamber of Commerce inspection team is about to arrive in Shanghai. Zhou Fohai has designated our Economic Department to be responsible for receiving it. The specific member list will be sent over later."
"Traitor Chamber of Commerce?"
"Don't make everything political. I think it should just be a purely commercial act."
However, Acheng disagreed with this explanation, "But brother, don't you always say that economics and politics are inseparable? Besides, if it was just business behavior, how could that old fox Zhou Fohai be so caring?
Call me specifically?"
Hearing this, Minglou smiled and nodded, praising: "Not bad, there is progress!"
"So, they are planning to openly surrender to Wang Jingwei's puppet government?"
"It's hard to say. Who knows whether they really intend to save the country or have other plans? I think this is also an important reason why Zhou Fohai asked our Economic Department to be responsible for the reception. On the surface, it is out of respect for them, but in fact it is
They asked us to investigate their true intentions!"
Acheng nodded, "In this case, we cannot place them within the concession area, as that would not be conducive to surveillance and observation."
"Then let's go to Yuyuan Road!" Minglou said after thinking for a while, "Finding a suitable house for them to live in is also a small test to see if they are willing to cooperate."
"I know, I'll do it right now!" After saying that, Cheng turned around and left the room...
…
The sound of hunting horses neighing in the strong wind has already arrived before anyone arrives.
With a loud neighing sound, Mingtai, who was already soaked to the skin, finally rushed to the top of the mountain despite the violent storm.
At this moment, he was like a boat going upstream, swinging against the rapids and rushing to the center of the execution ground.
However, Mingtai, who had put all his energy into rescuing people, did not notice that the long run on the mountain road had already exhausted his physical strength. This is true for horses, and it is also true for people.
So just when Mingtai was about to fly off the horse, the horse suddenly fell to the ground without warning, and Mingtai fell hard to the ground together with him.
Seeing this scene, Yu Manli, who was on the execution column, suddenly opened her eyes wide, and even her eyes that were originally cloudy became extremely clear at this moment.
Upon seeing this, Wang Tianfeng quickly took two steps forward subconsciously, but in the end he still forced himself to take back his hand that was about to reach out, and said condescendingly to Mingtai who fell to the ground in a sarcastic tone: "Mingtai fell to the ground.
The young master has gone and returned, what advice do you have?"
"I...I want to return to the team." Mingtai replied weakly.
"Return to the team?" Wang Tianfeng couldn't help but chuckled, "What kind of place do you think this is? This is a military academy! It's not a wet market where you can just come and leave! Now that you have stepped out of the school gate, there is no relationship between you and me.
The friendship between teachers and students has been exhausted, so why return to the team? It’s really hilarious!”
"teacher……"
"Teacher? Who is your teacher?"
"I...my teacher is...is Wang Tianfeng."
However, before he finished speaking, Wang Tianfeng kicked Mingtai hard, with a kick full of deep disappointment for the student in front of him. He was kicked far away, and his whole body was covered with mud.
Although Mingtai had no strength to get up from the ground at this time, Wang Tianfeng still walked over "reluctantly".
"You don't know what persistence is, what perseverance is, what perseverance is, what respect for teachers is!" Wang Tianfeng would kick him hard every time he said a word, "Why are you special? Why do you contradict the instructor? Again?
Why do you come and leave when you say you want? You are not worthy of being a soldier at all."
As he spoke, Wang Tianwang grabbed Mingtai by the collar and picked him up, then punched him hard and knocked him to the ground again.
"Mountains and rivers are broken, and the country will no longer be a country! What we are facing now is the subjugation of the country, the annihilation of the species! But you talk about freedom in front of me all day long? Do you want freedom from me? Well, I gave you freedom, but now you
You ran back, what did you do when you came back? Answer me, what did you do when you came back?"
Although Mingtai was a little unconscious at the moment, he still whispered softly: "Save... people... I... I came back to save... save people..."
