Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 1670 Song Mansion Family Banquet!

In the solitary room, the old comrades Duanwu and Brooke reunited.

Brooke hugged Duanwu and cried bitterly, then after wiping away her tears, he said: "Duanwu, you are finally here. I have been locked up in this damn confinement room for several months, and every day is like living in hell. .”

Duanwu looked at the haggard Brooke and said very apologetically: "I'm sorry, my friend, for making you suffer. I will rescue you, don't worry."

When Brooke heard Duanwu's words, a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

However, he was still a little worried and said: "My friend, my crime this time is really serious. My eldest brother has been taken back to the mainland for trial. If he is convicted, he will have to live in prison for at least ten years. Year."

Duanwu frowned and said, "So serious? At that time, didn't your eldest brother say everything was fine?"

Brooke smiled bitterly and said: "It's indeed okay, but you know, when we made money, some people were jealous. Maybe it was done by people who had a grudge against my eldest brother? They sued my eldest brother. And my eldest brother was arrested. After that, I was also arrested. Alas!"

At this point, Brooke sighed.

But he had no regrets, because even if he knew there would be today's consequences, he would still help Duanwu, a good brother.

Duanwu sat down slowly, and then thought about what Brooke just said.

Of course, it was not Duanwu who was doubting Brooke, but Duanwu who was wondering what the problem was.

Because there were no problems at the time of the transaction.

The problem lies in the uneven distribution of the spoils.

This is very easy to understand, and what Brooke said just now confirms this.

Thinking of this, Duanwu asked Brooke again: "Who can I buy arms from now?"

"What? You still want to buy arms?"

Brooke was surprised, but when he thought about it, he was right. There was a war going on, so of course there was a shortage of arms.But buying arms is not that easy.The Americans are also afraid of offending the Japanese by selling arms to China, so they have strict controls on arms, especially exports to China.

Of course, the Americans also don't want Japan to grow bigger, so last time, Brooke's brother Philip got military assistance so easily.

So thinking of this, Duan Wu actually felt that Philip's crime might not be that serious anymore, just because the stolen goods were unevenly divided among these Americans.

So Duanwu thought for a while and asked: "How is Major General Smith on the advisory team now? Can he get weapons?"

Brook thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "I don't know much about this. Smith was transferred here after I was detained. But based on my understanding of all Americans, there should be no one who doesn't like money. Brother Duanwu, you You can give it a try. And you don’t have to be so subtle with what they said. Of course, if it’s not convenient for you to say it, I can take your place. Although my living conditions here are average, as long as I have money, I can go out once a week. ,hey-hey!"

When Brooke said this, he felt a little proud.

When Duanwu saw Brooke's expression of needing a beating, he felt that it was unnecessary for him to come see him.

However, he got a very valuable piece of information, that is, many of these military consultants who came to China came for money.

As for things that money can solve, Duanwu feels that they are not problems.Of course, it depends on whether the money is large or small.For example, the German businessman opened his mouth a bit.

Thinking of this, Duanwu said: "I have something to do today, so I'll leave first. After I finish what I'm doing, I'll go see Mr. Smith." Brooke nodded and said, "Brother Duanwu, you go first If I'm busy with your business and it's profitable, I think I'll be able to go out soon. But you have to be prepared, these people have big appetites."

Duanwu said: "It's okay, but it can't be too big. You can tell them clearly that the benefits are indispensable for them, but I hope that our cooperation can be smooth and steady. In this way, their income will be kept secret, and all I need is It’s just arms. Do you understand?”

Brooke saluted as a gentleman: "Understood!"

Duanwu nodded and said, "Okay then, I'll come see you in two days."

After that, Duanwu turned and left, because he had an important dinner in the evening.

Today is the first time to meet Tang Jiujiu's parents, but I don't want to be late for Dragon Boat Festival.And he also wanted to buy some gifts. Although the money was not much, it was obviously rude to go empty-handed.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, I bought two boxes of cakes, two boxes of cans, some fruit, and two bottles of wine.

After the driver delivered Dragon Boat Festival to Song Mansion, he stopped on the side of the road, because obviously, Dragon Boat Festival would still have to go home soon.

At the gate of the Song Mansion, the housekeeper of the Song family was waiting there early.

The old man is in his 50s, tall and thin, with a slight hunchback.But when he saw Duanwu coming over, he asked, "Is it Mr. Duanwu?"

Duanwu nodded, and then gave the thing in his hand to the old housekeeper.

The old housekeeper smiled apologetically and said, "Mr. Dragon Boat Festival, the master, his wife, and miss are all waiting for you in the room!"

Duanwu said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

The old housekeeper smiled, but didn't say anything.Because what's the use of apologizing to him during Dragon Boat Festival?Then the master must forgive him.

When I was young, I came to the villa with a Western architectural style of more than 3000 square meters on three floors, and Duanwu met Tang Jiujiu's father Song Wen.

Song Wen was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.But he already knew that the Dragon Boat Festival was coming, but he didn't move.

At this moment, Tang Jiujiu ran out from the kitchen to greet Dragon Boat Festival.

Duanwu saw Tang Jiujiu and smiled and said, "I came a little late to see a friend."

"That friend is important, right?"

At this moment, Song Wen's strange voice suddenly came. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with being late for the Dragon Boat Festival.

But when Duanwu was about to explain, Tang Jiujiu pinched her waist and said: "Yes, my family is very busy in Duanwu. We are going back to the mountain city. If we are fighting outside, it is common to stay up for three days and three nights. matter."

Song Wen angrily threw the newspaper on the table. He originally wanted to give his prospective son-in-law a slap in the face, but his daughter kept causing trouble!
Seeing this, Duanwu smiled and said, "Hello, uncle, it's my fault that you came late today. For such an important day, I should have come earlier."

When Song Wen heard this, he finally calmed down and motioned to Duanwu to sit across from him and said: "My Jiujiu, there are not many boys that I can like. And I have also heard that you are very good. So this is As a father, I won’t say anything more.

But I have one thing to tell you, this marriage is a lifelong matter.I don’t want you to do anything dangerous again after you and Jiujiu get married.In our Song family, there is no shortage of money.If you can work in the government, then do it well. If you don't want to work anymore, come back. I have an industry for you to manage! "
