Agent: Zheng Yao will contact me first at the beginning

Chapter 818 The Consul’s Opinion
Chapter 819 The Consul’s Opinion
After returning to his residence, Zheng Yaoxian carefully considered his next action.

"Li Feng is a good chess piece..."

"But this time, it is best to leak the information on Xiang Island!"

Zheng Yaoxian narrowed his eyes slightly and unknowingly the cigarette in his hand had burned more than half.

This matter involves too much scope and is full of uncertainties.

He must consider everything.

"Everything can only be decided after we get to Xiang Island!"

Soon, Zheng Yaoxian already had a preliminary plan in his mind.

In the next three days, he read almost all the military intelligence on the United States.

"With this information, things will be easier to handle!"

Zheng Yao first picked out a telegram.

This telegram was exactly what Shen Fei learned from Muto Shio about the secret negotiations between Japan and the United States.

Although it is just an overview, he has been able to deduce a lot of valuable information.

At the same time, the Shanghai stock market thousands of miles away.

Shen Fei is not idle either!

"Consul, Simon suddenly called me last night and said he wanted to see me tonight!"

Hearing the news, Shixiong Muto was slightly startled.

He immediately asked, "What is going on?"

Shen Fei shook his head with a serious look on his face, "He didn't go into details on the phone."

"But from the tone of his words, it seems that the resignation of Foreign Minister Matsuoka gave them an opportunity!"

"After all, it was Chief Matsuoka who proposed the alliance with Germany."

"Moreover, Chief Matsuoka was strongly opposed to our negotiations with the United States."

"Now that he has stepped down..."

After hearing Shen Fei's words, Muto Shio immediately sensed an opportunity!
He nodded.

Simon didn't know the real situation in the base camp.

With Matsuoka stepping down, from the perspective of the United States, Toyo has a suitable opportunity to withdraw from the Three Kingdoms Alliance.

"Heteng-kun, just pretend you don't know anything tonight, and test the reality of America first."

"Especially whether they are ready to go to war with our country!"

"This is crucial for us!"

Having said this, Shio Muto specifically told Shen Fei what to pay attention to.

"He Tengju, our previous peace talks with the United States have reached a deadlock."

"The empire has basically determined the strategy of going south, but to go south, we still need to prepare!"

"All we have to do is stall for time!"

After hearing Shio Muto's words, Shen Fei felt confident.

He also told the special high school class about the same news, and Takeshige Aoki's answer was almost exactly the same as Shio Muto's.

"Mr. Wato, I'm glad to see you again!"

Seven o'clock in the evening.

When Shen Fei arrived at the Jinzun Hotel, Simon came out to greet him with a smile.

"Mr. Simon, although we had a little unpleasantness before, you should have seen our sincerity!"

Hearing Shen Fei's words, Simon nodded.

He believed that Matsuoka's resignation was due to his previous tough attitude.

"Heteng-kun, what are you going to do?"

Although Simon is a spy, in Shen Fei's opinion, his strength is far inferior.

Shen Fei said that deliberately just now, it was just a test.

As for Simon's appearance, Shen Fei immediately grasped his pulse.

"Mr. Simon, the empire has always valued its relationship with the United States."

"Now it's time for you to show your sincerity."

"I heard that the previous negotiations reached a deadlock, and you are responsible for this!"

Simon smiled when he heard this.He immediately said, "Heteng-kun, we have already shown our sincerity."

"Although our country ostensibly imposed an embargo on you before, it only targeted aviation gasoline with an octane number of 87 or above."

"You should understand the meaning of this!"

Shen Fei is naturally aware of the fishy nature of this.

Aviation gasoline with an octane number above 87 is prohibited. In other words, gasoline with an octane rating below 87 is not within the scope of the embargo.

To put it bluntly, the United States’ previous embargo policy left a huge buffer space.

"Mr. Simon, although what you said makes sense, it is business after all. Didn't you also make a fortune?"

"And I want to remind you to look at the current situation clearly."

"The previous negotiations between the two countries were conducted before Germany attacked the Soviet Union."

"Now that their two countries are at war, Germany is unstoppable."

"We have compromised. If you don't make some gestures, we have no way to explain!"

Having said this, Shen Fei's attitude became even tougher.

He looked directly at Simon and asked with suspicion, "Mr. Simon, I have authorization, what about you?"

"Do you have authorization from your country?"

"Or do you already have an idea and are you just trying to find out what I mean and delaying time on purpose?"

Shen Fei's words caught Simon off guard.

He has no authority. His mission is just to find out the truth about Dongyang.

"Hefuji-kun, this matter will take some time."

"But don't worry, I will truthfully convey your country's attitude to my superiors."

"What we need is win-win cooperation!"

Looking at Shen Fei's eyes, Simon was quickly defeated in terms of momentum.

And his attitude was exactly what Shen Fei wanted to see.

After leaving the Jinzun Hotel, Shen Fei immediately reported the situation to Shio Muto.

"Consul, judging from Simon's attitude, although I am not sure whether the United States still has illusions, it seems that they are not ready to start with us!"

"It's just that although I temporarily overpowered Simon in terms of momentum today, it's not enough!"

As soon as Shen Fei finished speaking, Muto Shixiong laughed.

He patted Shen Fei on the shoulder, "Heteng-kun, don't worry about this!"

"I got news that Cheng Nade helped Shancheng organize the aviation force. We can make a fuss about it!"

Hearing this, Shen Fei couldn't help but be startled.

However, he was quick to give Shio Muto a thumbs up.

"Best regards, Consul!"

"During today's negotiations, Simon repeatedly raised objections to the empire's attack on Indo-China."

"Now that we have this matter, if he can't tell us why, we can take the initiative in the negotiation!"

And while Shen Fei was reporting to Shio Muto, Simon was not idle either.

He quickly sent out the information.

After receiving his telegram, James immediately found Robert.

"Teacher, Shen Fei is going to beat him up now."

"Is it possible that Dongyang is really not prepared?"

Looking at the telegram in his hand, Robert shook his head.

He immediately said, "Judging from Shen Fei's information, his behavior has always been high-profile."

"The more he says this, the more prepared Dongyang becomes!"

"But it's not time for us to overstimulate him yet."

Robert had his own concerns.

Isolationism is now prevalent in the United States, and it is not an easy task to convince superiors.

"Tell Simon that his main task is to delay!"

"Let him use the attack on Indo-China as an excuse!"
