The Peking Hotel is second only to the Liuguo Hotel in Peiping, which is known as the safe capital. It is a favorite place for Chinese people to gather.
It was just a gathering of the Locke Chamber of Commerce. Job Locke would not attend. Chen Dan, the vice president of the company, came forward. The man in a tuxedo who went to the hotel to pick up Luo Qiwei was Chen Dan's butler Chen Bo.
Chen Dan once studied in the United States. While studying abroad, he joined Locke Company and became a senior executive of Locke Company by virtue of his ability.
George Locke went to China to take over the family business and asked Chen Dan as his deputy to be fully responsible for the business in China.
Before Chen Dan went abroad, he had received great favor from the Xiong family, and when doing business in Peiping, he could not avoid the Xiong family. He readily accepted Xiong Cheng's request.
Using the position of a manager in exchange for the goodwill of the Xiong family is a very beneficial thing for businessmen like Chen Dan or Job Locke.
Soon, the car stopped in front of the Peking Hotel, and Luo Qiwei, led by Chen Bo, entered the Peking Hotel.
As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned by the luxury inside. Even in his previous life, Luo Qiwei had never been in such a high-end hotel.
On the second floor, Chen Dan took over the whole second floor of the hotel in order to catch up with others. In addition to getting acquainted with people from the commercial bank, he also became familiar with other people in charge of Locke Company.
As a spy, Luo Qiwei is very disgusted with being in such public places, which can easily expose his identity.
But when I think about it, taking the title of manager of Locke Trading Company may be more helpful for the next actions.
After thinking about this, Luo Qiwei relaxed a little and circulated among a group of businessmen. Soon, everyone knew that he, Luo Qiwei, was the manager of Locke Trading Company.
Some people even called him Qiaobu Luo. Luo Qiwei was stunned, and after asking about it, he found out that many senior executives working at Locke Company liked to give themselves a foreign name.
This not only sounds high-end, but more importantly, it will be more convenient when dealing with the government.
Like Chen Dan, in Locke Company, his name is Dan Locke. This name is not something ordinary people can call him. It must be called by someone who has made great contributions to Locke Company.
After drinking and eating, everyone left. Chen Dan stopped Luo Qiwei, and they were sitting in the same car. The driver was his butler Chen Bo. He said a little drunkenly: "When you get to Fengtian, you can leave on your own.
Go, the entourage of the trading company, I will say hello."
"No matter what you do, I just hope that you don't forget that you are Chinese."
Luo Qiwei opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. When he reacted, he found that Chen Dan had already leaned on the seat and was fast asleep.
After sending Luo Qiwei to the hotel, Chen Bo was driving home. Chen Dan, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
Chen Bo asked with some confusion: "Master, why did you say that to him just now?"
"He is a passionate person. I can feel it. There is only so much I can help. No matter how much, Mr. Locke will not agree to it."
"Let him stay in Fengtian in the name of our manager of Locke Trading Company. At least it won't be that dangerous."
Yes, at this time, the United States is a big country, and under normal circumstances, the Japanese will not attack employees of American companies.
Luo Qiwei, who returned to the hotel, carefully analyzed what Chen Dan had just said. He had a hunch that this Chen Dan should have doubted himself.
If time were not tight, Luo Qiwei would like to investigate this Chen Dan. He found that this person is very interesting.
Early the next morning, Luo Qiwei and Qian Ziming rushed to the train station. When they arrived at the train station, people from Locke Trading Company were already waiting there.
This time I went to receive the goods. The leader was named Fu Bing. He was said to be very powerful in kung fu. As for his subordinates, they were all hard scum.
As the manager of Locke Trading Company, Luo Qiwei is the general person in charge of receiving the goods this time. After the goods are received and counted correctly, they can be handed over to Fu Bing to be transported back.
As for him, he can stay in Fengtian for a period of time, which is equivalent to a paid vacation, and enjoy the scenery of Fengtian.
On the train, Fu Bing looked at Luo Qiwei's clothes and asked: "Manager Pan, when you go to Fengtian, are you dressed like this?"
"What?" Luo Qiwei asked a little strangely: "Isn't it okay to dress like this?"
Fu Bing shook his head and said, "You'll find out later. Although it's cold in Peiping, compared to the Northeast outside the Pass, it's nothing."
Luo Qiwei looked at Qian Ziming, who patted his chest and said, "Manager Pan, I am strong but a little cold, what are you afraid of?"
Fu Bing didn't say anything about the two people's disapproval. If Mr. Chen hadn't asked him to protect their safety, he wouldn't have bothered to say anything.
After the train passed Shanhaiguan, it became obviously cold in the carriage. Everyone opened the suitcases they carried with them, took out thick clothes from inside, and put them on.
Fu Bing looked at Luo Qiwei, took out another piece of clothing from the box, handed it to him and said, "Put it on. The further north you go, the colder it will be."
Then he looked at Qian Ziming and said, "The clothes are gone. Aren't you physically strong? You can just endure it and get over it."
Sure enough, as the train moved, the temperature in the carriage became lower and lower. This was still close to the boiler. You can imagine how cold it was on the third-class side.
Qian Ziming was frozen and kept running around in the carriage. As soon as he stopped, he felt as if he was going to be frozen.
It was just past October, and the sun was still shining brightly over Nanjing. Although it was a bit cold in Peiping, it was not overwhelming.
Qian Ziming really couldn't bear it at this time. If a kind person hadn't handed him a leather jacket, he would have been sick from the cold before he even got to Fengtian.
Whether it was in his previous life or now, Luo Qiwei had only heard that it was very cold in the Northeast, but he really didn't expect it to be so cold.
It was only late October, and snow began to fall in the sky. After getting off the train, the two of them rushed to a nearby shop selling clothes and changed everything inside and out.
Fu Bing looked at the two of them, smiled and shook his head. Inexplicably, he recalled in his mind the scene when he came to Guanwai for the first time in winter.
At that time, he was sitting in a third-class seat, and he didn't have enough clothes. When he left the customs, he was almost stunned by the cold.
The tourists around them also laughed when they saw the two of them. Most people will experience this when they come to Northeast China in the first winter.
After changing his clothes, Luo Qiwei felt much warmer all over. At this time, he was in the mood to look at the scenery outside.
The snowy Northeast is indeed very beautiful. It is covered in snow and surrounded by heavily wrapped Japanese soldiers patrolling back and forth.
I saw that they were from Locke Chamber of Commerce, so I just checked them briefly and let them go.
Behind him, people were taken away from time to time. Luo Qiwei sighed, followed Fu Bing, and left the station...
