above the point of the knife

Chapter 291

"Chief Kojima, I'm sorry, I took care of some personal affairs at noon, and I came back a little late..."

"Zhou Sen, you are seconded from the Secret Service Division. It stands to reason that I am not your direct supervisor, but if you are helping under my subordinates now, you must obey my arrangements. No matter how important things are, you must In your own position, understand?"

"Yes, yes, Chief Kojima taught me a lesson, I will definitely pay attention next time." Zhou Sen hurriedly bowed his head and nodded in agreement.

Kojima is the chief of the European and American section of the foreign affairs department, and his police rank is still a police officer, just one level older than himself, and he is Japanese, so he is one level higher invisibly.

Manchurians like Zhou Sen naturally look down on them, if Zhou Sen was not a student of Saburo Shibuya.

I'm afraid Kojima wouldn't even look at him.

"Zhou Sen, you and your assistant Anna are responsible for the liaison work with Poland and Denmark. On the Polish side, it is Counselor Warenski..." Kojima threw a document to Zhou Sen, which recorded this in detail Valensky's age, preferences and many other information.

This Japanese is really good at collecting intelligence, and what he does is quite solid. Even the situation of Walensky's home in Poland has been recorded in detail.

It seems that the cooperation between Japanese intelligence agencies and Poland has reached an unimaginable depth.

"This is the tentative procedure for the New Year's ballroom party. You are responsible for communicating and explaining to the Polish side. This is your job today." Kojima threw Zhou Sen another procedure.

"today?"

"Yes, it is today. This process must be delivered today, otherwise it will affect other people's work." Kojima said.

"Understood, I'm going now..."

"Call first to confirm, and then go to the Foreign Affairs Division to issue a letter of introduction. People will not see you without a certificate."

"Yes."

Zhou Sen really didn't know much about diplomatic matters, even though Kojima spoke to him harshly, he wasn't very angry.

This can be regarded as a small experience, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have such an opportunity.

The information contained the phone number of the Polish Consulate in Bingcheng. Zhou Sen returned to his office and used the phone on his desk to dial the number above.

Soon, the call was connected, and the person who answered the phone was a young woman with a Central Asian accent, probably an immigrant.

After some communication.

It was agreed to meet Counselor Warenski at the Polish Consulate at four o'clock.

Zhou Sen looked at the time, and there was still an hour left. It would take at most half an hour to drive from the Police Department to Ash'a River Street, where the Polish Consulate was located.

As for the information in hand, when you get to the land, find a tea shop, ask for a cup of coffee, study it, and go there when the time is almost up.

Just go.

Zhou Sen called Anna, told her about Xiao Dao's arrangement for him, and then handed over the information at hand to her first.

Wu En drove, Zhou Sen closed his eyes and fell asleep, while Anna looked through the information about the Polish Consulate and Counselor Warenski given by Kojima in the car.

Although Zhou Sen has never studied diplomacy, as an agent, observing words and expressions is the most basic skill, and analyzing the target person's personality according to his preferences...

"Zhou Sen, according to the information, this Valensky is not easy to deal with. He is a nobleman, arrogant and conceited, and has a very serious moral cleanliness..."

"This kind of old antique should have been swept into the pile of old papers of history long ago, and it is really unimaginable that he can still occupy a high position."

"However, their life is difficult. The Polish government-in-exile is in the UK. Although the UK has a consulate in Ice City, the UK does not recognize Manchukuo. It is a continuation of the past..." Anna continued.

"They've already gone through a layoff, and now they can only make ends meet by selling consulate property."

"That's why they still want to save face and suffer?"

"That's right, so it's difficult to deal with. The relationship between the Empire and Poland still needs to be maintained. After all, we had an extremely good relationship with them in the past, especially in terms of intelligence. The Poles gave us a lot of help, so we have to let They are satisfied," Anna said.

"They don't have any money, so if I go to contact and communicate with them, that means we'll pay for them to take care of all the things they need to attend the fraternity this time?"

"Yes, this is our real mission."

"This diplomacy is really deep. It turns out that one wants money and the other wants to give money, but how to negotiate can't be mentioned. How can we talk about it?" Zhou Sen said, "Is there anyone who has experience in this area that you can ask for advice?"

"No, even if there is, no one will tell us."

"This small island really presented me with a problem." Zhou Sen clicked his tongue, he really didn't expect there to be such twists and turns in it, if it wasn't for Anna's reminder, he would have run over here today. Seeing Valensky, it is estimated that there will be no results.

"Anna, do you estimate how much they will ask for?" Zhou Sen said.

"Not less than 5 yuan."

"[-], we hold a fraternity party, invite them to eat and drink, and give them gifts, and give them money?"

"The car and horse fees, clothing fees, appearance fees, etc., are all common practice."

"Rule, why have I never heard of such a practice?" Zhou Sen asked strangely.

"This is in Manchuria, and other countries are different. Those who need to support the scene can only spend money." Anna explained, "I did my homework, unlike you, whose eyes are smeared and nothing is wrong." Know."

Zhou Sen sighed: "It's true, thank you for having you, otherwise, I would definitely have a big fall today."

"Since it's a price negotiation, it's much easier to handle. It's nothing more than asking for a price and paying back the money when it lands. This is similar to a business negotiation." Zhou Sen said, "Anna, since you have studied it, then help me judge it. This Valen What is Ski's psychological price?"

"I think if his asking price is [-], the psychological price is around [-]." Anna thought for a while and said.

"How much can the superior give?"

"No more than 1 yuan." Anna said.

"Ten thousand, the distance is too big, it's not easy to talk about." Zhou Sen stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.

"It's not easy to talk about, it depends on how you talk about it." Anna said.

"Meet the person first and then talk."

……

There used to be more than one Polish foreign consulate on Ash'a River Street, some stayed and some moved away.

The location of the Polish Consulate is quite good, at the corner of Ashah Street and Shan Street, a good location.

The two-story European-style brick-concrete building facing the street has been built for a long time. It has been nearly 20 years, and Zhou Sen is not very clear about what it was originally used for.

But now it is the Polish consulate in Bingcheng, Manchukuo.

The appointment was at four o'clock, and now it's only a little bit in the early three o'clock. I'm afraid that if it was in the past, people might not receive me.

This Wallensky has such a temper. Zhou Sen doesn't want to put a hot face on a cold ass. The arrogance of the Europeans is in the bones. Even if Poland has long been subjugated, for their poor self-esteem, they must Rack up.

There are many tea and food shops on Ash'ah River Street, Zhou Sen asked Wu En to find a location close to the Polish embassy and stop the car.

Then he got off the car with Anna and found a tea shop.

After ordering twice the amount of coffee and a few plates of snacks, Zhou Sen brought over the documents and read them carefully.

After reading it, the impression that Valensky gave him was basically the same as what Anna analyzed.

But at this moment, at that moment, Poland is already the original Poland, and Valensky's arrogance is useless, and if he continues to persist, it will become a joke.

The Polish government-in-exile was established in Britain. They are now a member of the Allies. Although they hate Soviet Russia, which also invaded their own country, they hate Germany even more.

Germany and Japan are Axis powers.

The Polish government-in-exile still has diplomatic relations with Japan and the Puppet Manchukuo, but whether such relations will exist in the near future is uncertain.

Both Germany and Soviet Russia have consulates in Puppet Manchuria, and Germany has official diplomatic relations with Puppet Manchuria, and Poland has enmity with these two countries...

And these two countries were invited to participate in this social ball. If Poland participated, there might be some unpleasantness at the meeting.

The relationship between Poland and Japan in private is much better than the relationship between Japan and Soviet Russia, and Poland has given Japan a lot of support and help. If Poland is not invited to this diplomatic ballroom, it may affect Japan's past. friendly relations, and Japan also wants to dig some code-breaking talents from Poland.

In particular, Poland has been focusing on the research results of the secret code system of Soviet Russia and Germany, which Japan desperately needs.

There are complex historical relationships and interest calculations.

It stands to reason that the liaison and explanation work with the Polish consulate should be handed over to a senior diplomat who is familiar with the relationship between the two countries.

However, Section Chief Yataro Dacheng and Section Chief Kojima unanimously assigned such a task to Zhou Sen, who was seconded from the Secret Service and had no experience in diplomacy.

It's just full of malice.

I don't know if there is Toshiro Yamamoto in it, no matter if there is or not, just treat it as if there is, and he doesn't intend to let him go anyway.

After a cup of coffee, Zhou Sen had almost read the information in his hand, called the waiter, paid Fei, and said to Anna: "Let's go."

"Zhou Sen, are you just holding these materials and dancing your sword against Valensky?" Anna asked.

"Of course, this is the knife I will meet and negotiate next time." Zhou Sen chuckled, "What is there to be proud of for a European bereaved dog?"

Anyway, no one told him about the secret cooperation between Poland and Japan, so he simply pretended not to know.

Even if things go wrong in the end, who cares? As long as the superior is not a fool, or wears the same pair of pants as Dacheng and Kojima, he will naturally understand.

What's more, there is Shibuya Saburo behind him. These people took advantage of Shibuya's absence in Bingcheng to squeeze themselves out like this.

Isn't this slapping Saburo Shibuya in the face?
It depends on the owner to beat the dog, doesn't it?
