Lost and Spy

Chapter 1067
The Bureau of the Ministry of Industry of the Public Concession attached great importance to this dance.

It was originally planned to be arranged in the Capital Hotel in the round square of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, but after careful consideration, it was still placed in the banquet hall of the Wan Guo Business Group Club.

All the waiters are served by patrol officers.

The dinner is still in the form of a buffet that is popular in Shanghai.

Directors of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau and major officials at all levels basically arrived.

A banquet just for a few Chinese?
This is unprecedented in the history of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

Most of these people, and most of them are the first time to see these influential figures who shocked Shanghai Bund!
Especially Shanghai Wang Meng Shaoyuan!
Now his every move affects the big Shanghai.

It was even exaggerated to say:

Meng Shaoyuan got up in the morning and sneezed, maybe something big will happen in the afternoon!
There are also Tian Qi and Li Shiqun, which of these people is a good stubble?
Moyes, who is the chairman of the board of directors of the Ministry of Works, and Police Commissioner Sinclair were also present.

These two people can be regarded as old friends of Meng Shaoyuan.

The directors chatted with a few Chinese people for a while, but no one was thinking about chatting.

The ladies they brought were in high spirits.

This kind of banquet plus dance is the most popular among them.

"Look, they're really having a good time talking."

Moyes immediately suggested: "There is still some time before the dance, I have arranged a table, if gentlemen have no objection, can we chat while eating?"

Meng Shaoyuan was overjoyed when he heard this.

Is he dressed as the God of Gamblers just for gambling?

"I won't."

Except for Ding Mo Village, no one objected.

Sinclair also didn't participate.

He can be responsible for the safety of the site.

Playing Texas Hold'em is also the favorite way of gambling for foreigners.

……

After two rounds, Meng Shaoyuan lost a little.

He glanced at the cards in the riverbed:

"Call."

"Me too."

Sitting under him was Douglas, an Englishman, the director of the Board of Directors of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

He threw chips into the river bed, and then said: "You are all prominent figures in Shanghai, so maintaining the peace in the International Settlement is also your job. Only when the International Settlement is safe can we develop better Prospects. We're here to make money together, not hurt each other, what do you think?"

"I follow."

Tian Qi concentrated on gambling money and did not return.

"Mr. President, I very much agree with your words. I agree with you." Li Shiqun said: "The peace of the public concession requires our joint efforts. One organization has stopped its activities, while the other organization is still doing something. Small tricks, then peace will never come. What do you think, Mr. Meng?"

Meng Shaoyuan replied: "Have you all followed? Are they all big names?"

Moyes coughed: "Mr. Meng, are we asking for your opinion?"

"Ah? What's your opinion? Should I follow this card or not?"

"Are we talking about peace?"

"What peace?"

"Peace in the International Settlement!"

"That's it." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly realized: "It's simple, it's too easy to make peace in the public concession, let the Japanese get out of China first, and then I will retire to the countryside after cleaning up the traitors, and peace will naturally come."

Everyone's complexion is a little ugly.

Douglas was a little dissatisfied: "Mr. Meng, your attitude is a bit sharp."

"I followed." Meng Shaoyuan gritted his teeth and threw out the chips: "Mr. President, for example, I'm just giving an example. The Germans occupied Britain, and then the Americans came out to mediate, saying, the British, Peace, no war, give up resistance, I say, will you British really give up resistance?"

Douglas' face became even more ugly: "I'm talking about the public concession now!"

"I'm talking about the ongoing war in China! Hey, are you following me or not?" Meng Shaoyuan didn't have time to think: "The public concession is also China's land, which we lent you. Concession, don't forget the word lease." We are the landlord, you are the landlord, how can there be a landlord in the landlord's house in this world?"

"Mr. Meng Shaoyuan, you!"

Douglas was about to retaliate, but when he thought of so many people, he held back his anger: "I won't follow!"

"It's a good thing you didn't follow." Meng Shaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Dong, don't be angry, don't you just want peace? Peace is very simple. The problem is, if we stop, can you guarantee that others will stop too? You I know very well in my heart that this is not possible. Today we may be able to sign a peace agreement, but I promise you, within ten days it will be torn up!

You and I both know in our hearts that as long as the war does not stop, it is impossible to usher in real peace.Tian Qi, Ding Mocun, Li Shiqun, ask them, which one is willing to give up?Even if they agree, will the Japanese masters behind them agree?Peace?You are looking for the wrong person for the peace you want. You should talk to the leader of the Japanese army, you should talk to the Japanese government! "

"I won't follow."

Tian Qi closed the cards.

"Raise." Li Shiqun seemed to be focusing on the gambling table.

"Mr. Meng Shaoyuan, your attitude makes me angry!"

Douglas finally could bear it no longer:

"If you continue to maintain this attitude, then we have to take the necessary measures!"

"I call! Draw! I have three jacks!"

"Three K's!" Li Shiqun smiled: "K represents the king!"

"I rely on!"

Meng Shaoyuan threw the cards away: "Come again...Mr. President, what did you just say? Take necessary measures? Arrest us?"

"Yes, I can order your arrest immediately!"

"You try!" Meng Shaoyuan laughed: "There are more than tens of thousands of our military commanders, can you catch them clean? As long as you dare to attack me, I can paralyze the entire public concession overnight! I can make Shanghai trash Clean up, there are no rickshaw drivers on the street, and all the shops are closed. I make you foreigners dare not even go to the street!

I was not happy to provoke you before, the real peace is between me and you!Are you threatening me now?Was it threatened by the Japanese?Put pressure on me?Do you want the International Settlement to become a real battlefield?Mr. President, be your chief executive with peace of mind, dance, drink and play cards with peace of mind. Don't provoke me! "

Douglas paled.

He has never seen such an arrogant Chinese!

"Deal the cards!" Meng Shaoyuan said dissatisfiedly: "I seem to have lost a lot."

……

"Raise!"

"Call!"

"District Chief Meng, it seems that there are only two of us again?"

Li Shiqun said with a smile.

"Your cards are so good?"

Meng Shaoyuan muttered: "I re-bet, but it's not a chip. In this hand, I want to bet with you!"

"Who?"

"Gu Laosheng!"

"Who is he?"

"We were an agent caught by you."

Wu Jingyi, who was playing cards with Meng Shaoyuan, was startled when she heard this.

Who is Gu Laosheng?
