"You may not believe it, but this is a fact," Geng Chaozhong smiled, "Others think that I am in the business of drinking and drinking tea, but you should know that I am in the business of information, and information is priceless.
of."
"I'm afraid your news is brought by these guests, right? If one day, these guests suddenly stop coming here, will your news still sell for so much money?" Kawasaki sneered.
This is a threat, a naked threat.
"Let me tell you something," Geng Chaozhong remained unmoved. "Some time ago, there was news from the Salon that President Hindenburg was seriously ill. I think you must have heard about it before you came here.
Have you passed?"
"I've heard of it." Hearing Geng Chaozhong take the initiative to talk about this topic, Kawasaki also became interested. He whispered: "I heard that there is a German friend who is President Hindenburg's personal doctor. The news is from
He passed it on."
"Wrong," Geng Chaozhong shook his finger, "I was the one who told that foreigner this news."
"this......."
Kawasaki's expression condensed, and he looked at the young man in front of him in confusion. After a slight pause, he shook his head and said, "I don't believe it."
"You don't have to believe it, but I'm telling you a piece of news now. You can wait to verify it," Geng Chaozhong looked into Kawasaki's eyes. "The news is that German Prime Minister Hitler has begun to be dissatisfied with his stormtroopers.
, it is estimated that it won’t be long before Roma will step down.”
"Really?" Kawasaki opened his eyes wide.
Röhm is a confidant and loyal supporter of the German Chancellor. He has always been at the helm of the SA and is deeply trusted by Hitler. How could he step down?
"I can give you time to verify. If by that time you think what I am telling the truth, it will not be too late to come back to me." Geng Chaozhong said calmly.
"It seems that you are very well-informed about the news from Germany." Kawasaki looked into Geng Chaozhong's eyes.
"I have a friend who works for a foreign bank that is engaged in bond trading. Every news will have an impact on bond fluctuations," Geng Chaozhong explained in a rare way. "Knowing these news in advance will bring great consequences to the foreign bank."
Huge profits - but obviously, this news will not bring much benefit to my friend."
"So, your friend makes money by selling this information?" Kawasaki seemed to understand something.
"Yes, making money through bonds requires too much capital, and this is not allowed by his boss, so he can only obtain a little extra income through this channel." Geng Chaozhong smiled.
"Can I ask which foreign bank your friend works for? HSBC or Deutsche?" Kawasaki asked "curiously".
"Mr. Kawasaki, you seem to have too many questions," Geng Chaozhong spread his hands, "What's more, today is only the first time we have met."
"Okay, I can consider raising the price a bit." Kawasaki said.
"No, I won't charge you any money, not even a penny," Geng Chaozhong waved his hand and looked at Kawasaki with a smile, "For you, information can only be exchanged for information, not money.
.”
"Haha, Mr. Zhou is indeed a good businessman, and the abacus actually hit me," Kawasaki understood what Geng Chaozhong meant, "but, unlike your friend's news, my news cannot be converted into money."
"Why are you so stubborn?" Geng Chaozhong smiled. "In fact, expired information is just a piece of waste paper, which is useless in your hand. As long as you are willing to provide me with some information that I don't know, then I am willing to
I will exchange with you what I know - of course, you can choose the specific information."
"You are doubting my loyalty to the empire." Kawasaki's face looked a little ugly.
"No, no, I have absolutely no doubts about your loyalty to the empire. However, some information is not that important to the empire. On the contrary, these information can be exchanged for some information that is more important to the empire, for example, information about the Red Party?
Geng Chaozhong said with a smile.
"You are scary," Kawasaki defined the person in front of him. "I really didn't expect that the owner of a mere salon would have such knowledge. I have some doubts about your identity and background."
"Haha," Geng Chaozhong laughed, "Mr. Kawasaki, this is the second time you have threatened me, but I also remind you that Peiping is not a place where you can dominate the world with just one hand, especially in Dongjiaominxiang. I suggest that you take action
Before doing so, it’s best to consider the consequences.”
Kawasaki was silent.
He realized that he had made a mistake - this Dongjiaomin Alley was not much different from the actual concession. Any action here must take into account the faces of the Europeans and Americans. In fact, if this were not the case, he would be the same.
Why bother coming here in person?
"Forgive me for being reckless," Kawasaki said with a smile on his slightly stiff face, "I will consider Mr. Zhou's proposal carefully. It is an honor to have this conversation with Mr. Zhou. I think we will meet again soon.
of."
Kawasaki issued an eviction order. Obviously, he did not want to continue this conversation.
"Okay, then I won't waste your time," Geng Chaozhong stood up, "In fact, you are not the only ones who came to talk to me, and they all made choices that satisfied both of us.
I believe Mr. Kawasaki is no exception."
"Okay." Kawasaki nodded and sent Geng Chaozhong out the door.
When he was about to go out, Geng Chaozhong suddenly turned around, looked at Kawasaki and said with a smile:
"Mr. Kawasaki, there is a grand singing and dancing party tonight. If you have time, you can stay and enjoy it. Also, I will give you a gift later, a gift that you will definitely be interested in."
"Gift?" Kawasaki looked at Geng Chaozhong.
"Yes, a gift," Geng Chaozhong replied with a smile, "After the party, I will personally give the gift to you. You will not be disappointed."
"It depends on the situation!" Kawasaki smiled, noncommittal.
Not long after Geng Chaozhong left, Bai Mu walked in. Kawasaki glared at Bai Mu and said:
"Baime, before you came here, did you investigate this person's detailed background?"
"This..." Baime was a little confused, "Section Chief, as you know, there are a lot of this kind of information. It is impossible for me to check them all in detail. I thought you were just here today to discuss things with Takeuchi-kun.
Thinking of you getting in touch with Boss Zhou this time."
"Carefully investigate this person's identity and background. It is impossible for such a person to appear out of thin air in Peking." Kawasaki's eyes showed a bit of doubt, "Also, I always feel that he seems to have come prepared today...
....”
"Come prepared?" Bai Mu was stunned.
"Well..." Kawasaki frowned.
...........
"Brother Six, have you met Kawasaki?"
In Geng Chaozhong's office on the second floor, Wang Jianqiu was also asking Geng Chaozhong.
"Yes," Geng Chaozhong nodded, "we chatted for a while and gave him some ecstasy. By the way, where is Takeuchi?"
"Takeuchi is still drinking. He has fallen in love with a French noblewoman and is pursuing her crazily." Wang Jianqiu replied.
"What time is it now?" Geng Chaozhong asked seemingly casually.
"It's half past five, it's already dinner time." Wang Jianqiu replied.
"I would like to inform you that today is free of charge. Welcome friends who have just joined the salon." A smile appeared on Geng Chaozhong's lips.
