Du Fei came to the unit early in the morning. He was in a good mood and had a smile on his face.
Shen Jianing came earlier than him and was carrying a thermos to fetch water. He met Du Fei in the courtyard and asked with a smile: Hey? What happy event is there today?"
"Good morning, Sister Ning~" Du Fei said hello, just as he was also looking for Shen Jianing: "Sister Ning, an Asian is coming to visit later, let's meet together~"
Shen Jianing frowned. She had never had a good impression of Dongyang because of her parents. She asked, "Who is he?"
Shen Jianing knew that Du Fei had close relations with some Japanese people, but those were all official matters.
Du Fei said: "It's a secretary from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan who wants to meet with me through Bush."
Shen Jianing understood what Du Fei meant. The other party's identity was somewhat special. It was difficult for Du Fei to meet alone. It would be more appropriate to have her present.
Shen Jianing nodded and agreed: "Okay, call me when someone comes."
Du Fei returned to the house, tidied up a little, then sat on a chair and began to think about the possible situation of meeting Daisaku Yasuda today.
Before two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Xiaobai hurried from the front yard to Du Fei's office and opened the door curtain and came in: "Manager, there are two foreigners outside. Director Zhang asked me to inform you."
Du Fei said "Hey", capped the pen in his hand, tore off a page from the book in front of him, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the wastebasket next to his desk.
Then he got up and went out, turned to the courtyard, turned to Shen Jianing's office and shouted: "Sister Ning, here you go!"
After waiting for a few seconds, Shen Jianing came out, wearing a light gray tunic suit and clean black leather shoes, which made her look very formal.
Du Fei understood that she didn't want to be embarrassed in front of foreigners.
This is also the mentality of most people in this era. In comparison, Du Fei is much more casual. Shen Jianing glanced at him without saying anything, and the two of them came to the living room in the front yard together.
Director Zhang here had just asked someone to pour water. When Bush saw Du Fei coming in, he immediately got up and gave him a bear hug. He laughed and said: Du, my friend, long time no see!"
Du Yun also smiled brightly: "George, me too." Then he looked at the young man in a suit next to him, who was about thirty years old and fairly good-looking: "This is Mr. Yasuda, right~"
Bush introduced immediately.
Daisaku Yasuda bowed slightly: "My dear Daisaku Yasuda, please take good care of me when we meet you for the first time."
Du Fei smiled and nodded in return: "Mr. Yasuda, you're welcome." Then he introduced Shen Jianing.
The four people sat down, because Bush was just the middleman, and Du Fei and Daisaku Yasuda were the protagonists. The two of them sat in the middle, separated only by a small coffee table.
Bush and Shen Jianing sat on both sides.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Du Fei got straight to the point and asked, "Mr. Yasuda has come all the way, what advice do you have?"
Daisaku Yasuda sat down and bowed: "Toyo and Kasatsu have been neighboring countries separated by a strip of water since ancient times. Although they have fought against each other in modern times, that has passed..." Du Fei patiently listened to what he said.
, always with a smile on his face.
Daisaku Yasuda said it again to observe Du Fei's reaction, but secretly frowned.
Du Fei's expression didn't show anything at all. He didn't know whether he agreed or disagreed, and he felt a little nervous.
Until he finished speaking, Du Fei laughed and said: "Mr. Yasuda said it very well, especially the use of "a piece of clothing with water" is very appropriate." After saying that, he turned to look at Shen Jianing: "If I remember correctly, this idiom seems to come from the Sui Dynasty.
From the mouth of Emperor Yang Guang."
Shen Jianing was stunned at first, but she also graduated from college and had some knowledge in literature and history. She immediately realized the connotation of Du Fei's words.
When Yang Guang was still the king of Jin, he was ordered by the governor to go south to destroy Chen Dynasty. He described the natural moat of the Yangtze River as just a strip of water.
The original meaning is how can water as wide as a clothes belt block my army. Obviously Daisaku Yasuda did not know this allusion.
Although most of the upper class in the East will receive some Chinese education, after all, the essence is not there.
Not to mention him, many people in Huaxia thought that "a piece of clothing can bring water" is a good word. Before Du Fei traveled through time, when he heard the news mentioning Japan when he was a child, he would always use the word "a piece of clothing can bring water".
At that time, Du Fei thought it was describing the good relationship between the two countries. Later, when he went to college, he understood the malicious intent contained in it. Daisaku Yasuda was a little surprised by the eye contact between Du Fei and Shen Jianing. > Du Fei continued: "If I understand correctly, Mr. Yasuda hopes that the two families can put aside their past grudges and get back on good terms, right?"
Yasuda said loudly: "This is exactly what I want."
Du Fei pursed his lips, looked at Bush and said: "I can understand Mr. Yasuda's mood. Hua Xia has loved peace since ancient times, and hopes for peace in the neighborhood. Even if there were grievances in the past, they can be resolved, just like your country and Meiguo.
, the attack on Pearl Harbor back then, now we are as close as father and son~"
The corners of Shen Jianing's mouth twitched.
Why are we as close as father and son? You might as well just call him a foreigner. Bush nodded in agreement.
Daisaku Yasuda is a little embarrassed, but he can stand out in the family, and this time he has come out to take charge of his own affairs. He is naturally not a fool, and is quite capable.
Instead, he followed what Du Fei said: "Yes, there are no eternal enemies in the world." He looked at Bush and then at Du Fei: "It's like you can become good friends with Mr. Bush..."
Du Fei sneered in his heart, hearing the strange aura in this guy's mouth.
Although it didn't mention a single word, it was actually alluding to the Goryeo War.
Du Fei said indifferently: "Of course, but there must be a prerequisite for turning hostility into friendship... Daisaku Yasuda was a little more serious, knowing that this was a key topic, so he was a little serious and listened.
Du Fei paused, then continued: "Since we are going to turn the war into friendship, shouldn't there be an explanation for what happened in the past? Who is right and who is wrong, who loses and who wins, we can't be confused, right?" As he spoke, Bush read: "
George, do you think this is true?"
He then looked at Daisaku Yasuda and suppressed the smile on his face: "Mr. Yasuda, now you can turn your feud with Mego into friendship, that's because MacArthur occupied Tokyo, and it's because of the big mushrooms in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Daisaku Yasuda's face instantly became extremely ugly.
Shen Jianing was also surprised. He didn't expect Du Fei to be so explicit and straightforward.
Daisaku Yasuda looked gloomy, pursed his lips and said, "What do you mean by this?"
Du Fei said lightly: "It doesn't mean anything, it's just the literal meaning." He looked at Bush and said: "As the victor in World War II, we just want equal treatment. Of course, the United States is powerful, I admit that, complete equality is unrealistic, we
The next best thing is to halve all the benefits. They throw two and we throw one, which is fair."
Shen Jianing blinked her big eyes. It was the first time she saw Du Fei like this, which somewhat subverted her understanding.
Bush is used to it. Compared to others, he understands Du Fei better, whether it is Nanyang Oil Company or the production line of Wilton Company.
Daisaku Yasuda's face turned pale, and he suddenly realized that Hua Xia also had mushrooms.
At the same time, the tragedy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki came to mind, and I couldn't help but swallow. It took me a long time to react: "Mr. Du, you...you can't..."
Du Fei curled up his lips and said coldly: "Why can't I? Count eight years from Marco Polo Bridge, fourteen years from September 18th, and fifty years from Sino-Japanese War of 1891 to 1998. You Japanese people have been lying on our bodies to drink our blood and eat our flesh. It was only during the Anti-Japanese War.
We have suffered more than 30 million casualties, so why can’t I?”
Daisaku Yasuda was speechless for a moment. Du Fei snorted.
Bush saw the cold situation and immediately came to smooth things over. Du Fei didn't really want to settle the matter, so he just walked down the slope and said: "George, I'm so excited, but you are also responsible for this matter."
Bush was stunned, blinked his eyes, and thought to himself, I just tried to persuade him, why did he get so angry? This is a matter between your two families, and I have something to do with it.
Du Fei said: "When we teamed up to beat him, I rushed in front and got beaten up badly. In the end, we won the fight and you got compensation for occupying the land of the house. It was better for me. I worked in vain and got nothing."
"
Bush responded slowly and said quickly: "I don't want compensation."
Du Fei curled his lips and said: "You have taken all the land, and the compensation for you will be left to the right." Bush was speechless.
Daisaku Yasuda said with a serious face: "Mr. Du, regarding the compensation, you voluntarily gave up. This matter has been concluded."
Du Fei sneered: "The famous article by Principal Chang you mentioned
"Return kindness for evil" remarks? Mr. Yasuda, as time has changed, he can't represent anyone now. Besides, how can we repay kindness with kindness?"
By now, Daisaku Yasuda had completely understood that Du Fei had only one meaning after saying so much, which was to ask for money.
Daisaku Yasuda took a deep breath.
He, his family elders and department superiors had all anticipated this situation before coming here. They had previously threatened with mushrooms and read history, all of which were foreshadowing.
This calmed him down and asked: "Mr. Du, I want to know if this is your personal opinion, or if Du Fei was smiling but not smiling and asked: "Why does Mr. Yasuda appear here now?"
Daisaku Yasuda remained silent.
As Du Fei said, by appearing here today, he has essentially recognized Du Fei's status. Daisaku Yasuda said: "Can you further elaborate on your attitude?" ??
Du Fei understood that he was not asking about his attitude, but the amount of money.
The so-called "I'm a very fair person," he said immediately after demanding high prices. Although the damage caused by the war to our country is immeasurable, exceeding hundreds of billions of dollars,..." At this point, Du Fei glanced at Yasuda from the corner of his eye.
With a big look: "But it is obviously impossible for you to come up with such a large amount of money. Why not pay compensation of US$13.3 billion according to the loss announced by Principal Chang."
Daisaku Yasuda became anxious when he heard this: "This is impossible!"
Du Fei, however, was not in a hurry and said calmly: "Mr. Yasuda, it may be impossible but you don't care. You can take my intention back."
Du Fei knew why Yasuda Daichi came here in such a hurry. Before he crossed over, there was no similar move in Dongyang.
The reason why they are anxious now is because they feel pain, and Du Fei has a trump card in his hand that can manipulate them. Otherwise, these guys will keep pretending to be deaf and dumb until everything is lost.
Again and again, he pretends to be a victim.
Daisaku Yasuda frowned: "This is impossible, 13.3 billion US dollars is too much!"
In essence, when Daisaku Yasuda came this time, he was already mentally prepared to spend money to eliminate disasters. But he didn't expect that Du Feishi would open his mouth and be unable to deal with him.
Originally, he and the people behind him felt that spending hundreds of millions of dollars to solve a big problem was not unacceptable. But now, the two sides are not on the same page at all.
Daisaku Yasuda simply stood up: "Mr. Du, I come here with sincerity, but you seem to have no intention of responding to my kindness."
"Good intentions?" Du Fei also stood up, with a playful look on his face: "Killing to pay for life, and debts to pay for money are completely justified. Of course, you can ignore it, but I will continue to support Yamada-kun and Mishima-kun, even for free.
Give them weapons for free..."
When Daisaku Yasuda heard this, he couldn't hold back any longer. Du Fei was a naked threat.
It's blackmail, it's blackmail. It's obvious that if you don't pay me, I will keep messing with you until I kill you. Bush on the side subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his nose. Why did he feel like he had seen him before?
Shen Jianing didn't say much during the whole process, and he didn't appear too emotional on the surface, but he was shocked in his heart.
The scene just now was completely different from what she had imagined: polite, argumentative, and quarrelsome! Why did Du Fei look more like a bully?
It just made her feel so happy!
"Baga!" Daisaku Yasuda grew up in a fine life and had never experienced such a squeeze.
Even when he was working in the Secretariat of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, everyone who knew his background was impressed by him. But he didn't wait until he said "Baga".
Du Fei's eyes narrowed, and with lightning speed, he raised his hand and slapped him away.
There was a crisp "pop" sound, and Daisaku Yasuda's cheeks instantly became red and swollen, and he was instantly stunned. It's not that he had never been slapped, his grandfather and father had slapped him, but only these two people.
Today, he was beaten hard by Du Fei in front of him. He never expected that Du Fei would dare to hit him. However, Du Fei did hold back his strength, otherwise Yasuda Daisaku's life would be lost.
Du Fei had no expression on his face, and without even looking at the beaten Daisaku Yasuda, he looked directly at Bush: "I'm sorry, George, but I can't hear anyone calling Baga in this land.
Bush shrugged and said it had nothing to do with him.
Daisaku Yasuda took a step back, feeling the burning pain on his face. His eyes were almost on fire. Du Fei then looked at him: "Not convinced?"
Daisaku Yasuda pursed his lips tightly.
Du Fei grinned: "If you are not convinced, just bear with me. A defeated country must have the consciousness of a defeated country. Don't make a few bucks and think you are good enough."
Yasuda's lips trembled in anger, but he couldn't say even a single word.
Du Fei unscrupulously threw his dignity to the ground and trampled on it, but he had to endure it. Du Fei had the right to turn his back and say harsh words, but he did not.
Even if he is directly affiliated with the Yasuda Foundation, he does not have such qualifications.
In particular, Bush didn't say a word during the whole process, which showed his attitude of sitting on the sidelines, which made him lose confidence. Originally, he approached Bush first, hoping to use the banner as a tiger skin and borrow the prestige of Meguo's father.
But he underestimated the interests involved between Du Fei and Bush.
It is impossible for Bush to break up with Du Fei over an irrelevant Asian. Besides, Bush himself participated in World War II, in the Pacific Theater.
He didn't have a good impression of the Japanese at all. On the contrary, Du Fei's argument was more to his liking.
Especially that sentence, a defeated country must have the consciousness of a defeated country.
Farewell~" Daisaku Yasuda didn't forget the etiquette at this time. He bowed before turning around and walking out quickly. Bush also stood up and said, "I'm sorry, if I had known I wouldn't have come."
Du Fei regained his smile: "What are you talking about? We are friends. I am very happy that you can come. It just so happens that the unrelated person has left, let's continue chatting?"
Bush was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that Du Fei had something else to do with him. He also understood that Du Fei deliberately kept him here as a show to Daisaku Yasuda.
However, Bush does not need to consider the attitude of a mere Asian. If he were the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he might consider it.
Daisaku Yasuda is not qualified enough.
Shen Jianing was also a little surprised. She didn't know why Du Fei left Bush behind, and she didn't know what they were going to talk about. Seeing that Du Fei didn't say anything extra, he simply sat there and didn't move.
Meanwhile, in the yard.
Daisaku Yasuda walked out angrily. He looked back and saw Bush not following him, so he couldn't help but frown. In fact, he was not as angry as he looked.
He was slapped by Du Fei just now, and half of the emotions he showed were acting. He wanted to see Bush's reaction.
As the old saying goes, beat the dog to see its master.
To his disappointment, Bush did not react much to seeing him being slapped in the face.
Daisaku Yasuda made sure that Bush had not followed him, and finally walked out quickly. Returning to the guest house where he was staying, he immediately sent a telegram back to China.
The telegram did not add any exaggeration, but stated Du Fei's attitude and requirements very objectively, and also emphasized Bush's attitude.
In less than an hour, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tokyo.
In an office decorated with dark brown solid wood, there was a knock on the door, and an old man shouted "come in."
A young man pushed open the door and came in: "Sir, this is the telegram sent back by Mr. Yasuda."
The old man had a serious expression, and his gray hair was meticulously combed back, making his not-so-tall figure look somewhat majestic.
It was none other than Foreign Minister Aichi Kunichi.
Reaching out to take the message, Aichi showed no expression on his face, even when he saw the US$13.3 billion on it, he was not moved.
After reading it, he said: "Notify the Prime Minister's Office and I will be there in twenty minutes." "Hai~"
The young man quickly recorded it in his notebook, then bowed and exited.
The old man was the only one left in the office. He was leaning on the high leather chair, and the telegram in his hand was suddenly crumpled in half.
The veins on the back of my hands, which are covered with age spots, are protruding.
It wasn't until more than ten seconds that he relaxed, took a deep breath and returned to normal, helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he pinched the bridge of his nose.
After a few more minutes, he got up and walked outside.
On the other side, Du Fei kept Bush and said with a smile: "George, I heard that you have been fighting well in South Vietnam recently, and the Abram Army is indeed a veteran on the battlefield.
Bush wondered why Du Fei suddenly mentioned this.
The situation there has indeed improved recently, but the so-called improvement only means that the northern attack has been temporarily contained.
