Although it is a welcome party, it is not a special welcome party. After all, with Eiichi Iwai's status, only some Japanese ministers and other high-ranking officials in China are worthy of his display on such a scale. For the remaining people, even if the Prime Minister of the Japanese military government comes in person, he may not be very enthusiastic.

Because at this time, Japan's prime minister changed too quickly, due to various reasons, such as being unable to reconcile the conflicts between the army and navy, not forming an alliance with Germany, etc. The people below are sharpening their knives again, all trying to get to the top and show off their talents.

This is how it is, everyone is thinking about what I will do and what I will do. After all, when it comes to that, everyone is not much different. So in this period, being the prime minister is not an easy job. It was also because they changed so quickly that the people below them lost a lot of respect for them.

As a high-ranking official of the Shanghai Consulate, Eiichi Iwai has a very high status. Those who need his licking are not his turn to welcome, and those who do not need his licking are not qualified to be welcomed.

Today's protagonist is a young man in his twenties, a little over 1.7 meters tall, with thin skin and tender flesh that is a little chubby. At first glance, he looks like a young man from a noble family.

Other Japanese people in the field knew this young man, so Eiichi Iwai personally brought him to Wang Yan and others and introduced him: "This is Shinya Fujiwara. He has been in China for three years. He has been traveling in China before, and this time he arrived in Shanghai. , will serve as the consul of the consulate. He is my nephew. I introduce him to you today. I hope you will take good care of him in the future. He is relatively young, especially Wang Sang and Ming Sang, who are only a few years older than him. You will have more contact with each other in the future. .”

Although Eiichi Iwai didn't elaborate, you can tell just by looking at this little Japanese's surname that he is indeed from the Fujiwara clan, a Japanese aristocrat. The Fujiwara family is very prominent in Japan. After thousands of years of changes, it has experienced several rises and falls. It once controlled the Japanese royal family and dominated politics, and had great power in Japan. However, there are several branches. It is not clear which one this little Japan belongs to.

However, Eiichi Iwai personally took the initiative to identify people. No matter which branch he was from, the backstage was extremely tough. My background is not disclosed just to avoid trouble. Otherwise, everyone knows that the second generation of a nobleman who can be specially welcomed by Iwai Eiichi is here. If people from the two parties and political enemies seize the opportunity to kill him, then Iwai Eiichi will be the unlucky one in the end. You have to peel off the skin, which is to protect both parties.

Fujiwara Shinya behaved a little arrogantly, but he followed the so-called Japanese etiquette of bowing and saying polite words. Immediately, he made a 45-degree bow and said in his not particularly proficient Chinese: "I am Fujiwara Shinya, please take care of me!"

Wang Yan and others bowed back together, indicating that they had known each other before.

He looked at Eiichi Iwai with a smile: "Is this the new friend Mr. Iwai mentioned?"

"He is a few years younger than you. You are both the same age and have more topics to talk about. Wang Sang likes to eat, drink and have fun the most. You can help him get familiar with Shanghai. He has been to Shanghai before, but he did not stay in Shanghai for too long. , I’m not too familiar with it yet, so if you have time, you can have more contact with him. And you are a knowledgeable person with your own ideas, so you can teach him more."

Seeing Wang Yan's eyes looking over, Fujiwara Shinya bowed again: "Wang Sang, please take care of me."

Wang Yan reached out and held his shoulders, preventing him from bowing, and said to Eiichi Iwai: "Don't worry, Mr. Iwai, Wang is the best at eating, drinking and having fun, so I will leave it to Mr. Fujiwara. Mr. Fujiwara, you will have time later." , call me, I will take you to be cool and cool."

"Okay, thank you Wang Sang."

Seeing that the two of them were harmonious and smiling, Eiichi Iwai laughed and said, "Okay everyone, today is just a small talk, there is no need to be so restrained, feel free to do whatever you want."

Eiichi Iwai seemed to have nothing serious to do. After all, no matter how busy he was, there was always time to rest. It was just that they got together and chatted. Everyone present, whether Chinese or Japanese, has a good relationship with Eiichi Iwai, and among the Chinese, only Wang Yan has clearly not defected to the Japanese.

It's just that when these people are together, it's hard not to talk about the current situation, the battle situation on the front line, the situation between the two parties, etc., because these things are what these people talk about. Perhaps we should also add the cherry blossoms in our hometown, the false blessings to the emperor, and the hope of completely defeating China in the future.

As Eiichi Iwai finished speaking, the geisha who had been quiet for a while continued to play music and dance. Everyone is also on the tatami, each with a small table spread out. It is a separate meal, but the distance is not very far. If you want to talk to anyone, you can just go there. With the music and dancing of Japanese girls, it feels good. But in the end, I have plunged into the Japanese nest, and I feel that it is okay or not.

Zhou Fohai went to Yingzuo Zhenzhao's place, and the two exchanged cups. Wang Yan didn't like to join in the fun. He talked less when there were more people, but he talked more when there were fewer people. So he sat next to Minglou, an acquaintance, and the two of them ate and drank together.

"Director Ming hides it very deeply."

"Mr. Wang, you can't blame Minglou. You never asked. After all, there is no need to publicize this kind of thing." Minglou raised his wine glass and touched it with Wang Yan to express his apology.

Wang Yan really didn't know before that Minglou was involved with the Iwai Mansion, and Iwai Eiichi never mentioned it. Now it seems that Minglou was involved in the Iwai Mansion, otherwise he would not have appeared on an occasion like today.

From this point of view, Minglou is also quite powerful. He is the intelligence section chief of the military colonel, the intelligence team leader of the Shanghai underground party organization, the director of the Economic Department of the Wang Puppet Government, and the deputy director of the Secret Service Committee. Now he has the identity of an internal intelligence officer of the Iwai Mansion.

These four identities seem to be much more gorgeous than Wang Yan's titles, but their gold content is still much lower. After all, although he pretends to be a grandson everywhere, he actually controls more than 300 Chinese prisoners, thousands of gang members, some youth gang forces that have not surrendered to the Japanese, tens of thousands of workers, and a huge amount of material control power and youth gang power. The power to use massive funds in the United Bank.

This is the foundation of his life and the confidence that allows him to deal with many forces.

However, Minglou has such power, it is enough for him to use it. Previously, it was strange how a foreigner from Minglou, whose biggest backer was Wang Furui, had the ideas and strength to compete with Li Shiqun for the power of No. 76. Now he has the answer, it was given to him by Eiichi Iwai. For Eiichi Iwai, what he likes to see is ensuring the balance of all links and preventing the Chinese from growing stronger.

"If you had said it earlier, we would have avoided a lot of trouble."

"There's nothing I can do about it. If I say it myself, I'm afraid Mr. Iwai will blame me. I can't bear the consequences."

"Wang Sang, what are you talking about? You are laughing so happily." Fujiwara Shinya came over with a wine glass and sat down next to him.

He had been communicating with other senior Japanese officials in order to take advantage of this opportunity to get attention. His background can help him avoid detours, but his background belongs to his family, and his interactions are his own. Turning family connections into one's own is what the second generation of nobles should do. After all, in the final analysis, family connections recognize people first.

"We are talking about Japanese food. The chefs here are very good at it." Wang Yan responded casually.

Minglou never let his words fall to the ground, and continued Wang Yan's words: "Yes, Mr. Fujiwara, neither Mr. Wang nor I have been to Japan. What do you think of the taste here?"

Fujiwara Shinya raised his glass and drank a glass of sake with the two of them. He put down the glass and spoke in stumbling Chinese: "Actually, I haven't been home for three years. As long as it is Japanese food, it tastes good. Under the influence of longing, , I would consider it to be authentic hometown cuisine. But I believe Uncle Iwai, his choice will not be wrong."

Wang Yan nodded in agreement with a smile, and drank another glass of wine with him: "Mr. Fujiwara calls Mr. Iwai uncle. Wang doesn't know the inside story. I wonder if Mr. Fujiwara can reveal something about the relationship between them?"

"My grandfather once supported Uncle Iwai's father, and my father and Mr. Iwai were also very good friends. So Uncle Iwai took good care of me. This time I came to serve as a consul in the Shanghai Consulate, and it was Uncle Iwai who helped me."

"That is indeed a very good relationship. Come, Mr. Fujiwara, let's have a drink. Although I can't take you to eat, drink and have fun like Mr. Wang, you can also come to me if you have any other matters."

"Thank you Mingsang for taking care of me."

After drinking a glass of wine with Minglou again, seeing Wang Yan's hesitation, Fujiwara Shinya smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, is there something you want to tell Shinya?"

Wang Yan pondered for a moment and pretended for a while before speaking: "I hope Mr. Fujiwara won't blame Wang for being troublesome, but there is one thing I want to remind you."

"Please tell me."

"Shanghai is different from other places. The situation here is more severe and the struggle is more intense. Here, there are people from the Kuomintang, the Red Party, the United Kingdom, France, the Soviet Union and other countries. They smuggle people, sell arms, and resell intelligence. Every day they Someone died silently. Your surname and Mr. Iwai's attitude towards you all indicate that you are from the real Fujiwara family, not those who later gave themselves a surname.

Your identity must not be simple, and the background behind you must be very powerful. But often the more this happens, the more dangerous you are. If your story is known to others and spreads out, it is difficult to say that no one has evil intentions towards you. I want to achieve something by murdering you. So I suggest you to keep a low profile in your daily work, and it is best to change your name.

Besides, you came to China for training, and you don’t want to be looked down upon by others because of Mr. Iwai. "

Wang Yan had a serious look on his face and wrote three words, 'for your own good'.

Minglou's eyes flashed for a moment, and he answered quickly, speaking seriously: "Yes, Mr. Fujiwara. You must pay attention to this. Personal safety issues must not be careless."

"Thank you both for your concern." Fujiwara Shinya laughed and said to Wang Yan, "Uncle Iwai told me about you before. He said that you are the most sincere person and never hide anything. Now it seems that he was right. Wang Sang, you don’t need to worry. Uncle Iwai has reminded me of this before. In the consulate, my name is Hideto Hirokawa, and there will be no problem. In any case, I still want to thank you, Wang Sang, This is a toast to you.”

After drinking a glass of wine with Wang Yan, Fujiwara Shinya went to make friends with other traitors. In fact, it's just a face-to-face meeting so that things can be done more easily in the future. Things in the consulate are complicated. This kind of second-generation person with high ambitions and low abilities will definitely have great enthusiasm for work at the beginning and can stay fresh for ten and a half days.

As for talking about going out to talk to Wang Yan, if this little devil is smart enough, he will just talk about it and not really talk to Wang Yan.

Because Wang Yan is so attractive, basically everyone who appears around him will be noticed. If a Japanese appears, it is even more necessary to investigate carefully. In the end, whether it is the Kuomintang or the Red Party, if they know the identity of Fujiwara Shinya, they will most likely choose to kill him. Is it just a casual thing? Let's see if killing a descendant of a nobleman will bring any new positive changes to the already messed up situation in Shanghai. As for the possibility of incurring a crazy attack from Japan, that's not a big problem. After all, when are they not crazy?

Looking at Shinya Fujiwara who was exchanging glasses with others, Minglou picked up his wine glass and invited Wang Yan, who was eating heavily, to drink: "Mr. Wang is so kind, but I don't think he will listen."

After taking a sip of wine, Wang Yan put down his glass, approached him with a smile, and whispered, "Do you think I really have such a good heart? I'm afraid that if he dies, I will be blamed in the end."

Minglou was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Yan's meaningful eyes. He smiled like a hat: "I am short-sighted and didn't think of this. Oops, I missed such a good opportunity. Even if there is nothing wrong, I can still follow this The relationship between the nobles of the Fujiwara clan is even closer..."

"You spoke very quickly just now..."

Wang Yan frightened Minglou again with unknown meaning, and then continued to eat regardless of Minglou's reaction, but his ears were listening to what Zhou Fuhai and others were saying over there.

Zhou Fuhai spoke Japanese and almost arranged Wang Zhaoming's surrender to the enemy and treason. As for senior Japanese officials, except for a few who have lived in China for more than ten or twenty years, they basically don't speak Chinese very well. So not far away, their conversation was in Japanese.

Several people were chatting about the Wang Puppet Government, the current situation in China, and even the world situation. Wang Yan heard clearly that a major general in the army even revealed that the Japanese cabinet invited Germany to cooperate and hunt for the world. Japan was studying to abolish the prime minister. The person taking the lead is also a stranger, Tojo Hideki. However, he has not yet come to power, but he already has a strong power in the military, especially the army. There is no doubt that he is a careerist through and through.

As we chatted, the topic gradually turned to matters between the two parties because of Zhou Fuhai's rich experience in sitting on the fence. From the previous fight between the two parties, we have been talking about it now.

Ying Zuozhenzhao laughed: "You don't know yet, right? I received secret information two days ago. Chongqing's attitude towards the Red Party has been very radical recently. At the same time, I also learned another news. The Kuomintang's Second War Zone recently There are some changes in the deployment of troops. What does this mean?"

After that, he laughed heartily again.

Kage Sasaki is the head of the Mei Agency, and his people are even better at hiding than the people at Iwai Mansion. He was able to plan Wang Zhaoming's escape from Chongqing before, which shows that they have a certain power there.

As for the Second War Zone mentioned in the words, it covers the Shanxi-Shaanxi-Suiyuan region. The commander is Yan Laoxi, who is famous in the Anti-Japanese War film and television dramas. In the combat sequence of the Second War Zone, there is a National Revolutionary Army 18th The name of the Group Army was changed later. Previously, it was called the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and its commander-in-chief was Zhu Jiande.

Zhou Fuhai's eyes widened in surprise: "So, they are going to fight? That would be great. In this way, the Japanese Empire will end the war in a very short time."

Iwai Eiichi's eyes vaguely swept over everyone in the venue, and finally glanced at Wang Yan, who was eating food and drinking while muttering to Ming Lou. He turned around and asked, "So, our chance has come. Already?"

Yingzuo Zhenzhao shook his head: "According to the situation reported over there, although it is an opportunity, it is difficult for us to use it. Because we are always there, they will not be really stupid enough to start a war. But it is not Definitely, who can say for sure about this kind of thing? Come on, drink and win."

Wang Yan, who was having a conversation with Minglou, paused and whispered, "Do you know what they are talking about?"

Minglou was already anxious and anxious. He saw that Zhou Fuhai was chatting very freely, sometimes solemnly and sometimes relaxed. He must have said something important. Unfortunately, it was too noisy here and he couldn't hear it. Even if he heard it, he wouldn't be able to hear it. Don't understand Japanese.

Hearing what Wang Yan said, he looked at Wang Yan in surprise, his eyes full of doubt.

"I am a martial arts practitioner. I have sharp ears and eyesight. I am also proficient in many languages. There is no need to doubt it." Wang Yan smiled nonchalantly: "They said..."

"Wang Sang, Ming Sang, what are you two talking about?" Just at this moment, Iwai Eiichi's shout came, interrupting Wang Yan's words, "Come over and drink together, we are all happy together. "

Wang Yan stood up and walked over with the wine glass in hand: "Didn't I start a business partnership with him? We were discussing some details."

Minglou, who was following behind, nodded repeatedly: "There's nothing we can do about it. Minglou is in charge of the economy, or to put it more bluntly, he's in charge of money. Whenever he has anything to do with money, Minglou has to be careful, but he doesn't dare. Something went wrong."

"Okay, what everyone wants today is to be happy. You can communicate privately about work. You have to remember that work is never finished, and happiness is short-lived."

Eiichi Iwai raised his glass to invite a drink: "Come, let's all have a drink together, and our martial arts fortune will last forever!"

People raised their glasses and drank together, and even the music that sounded like a little devil's scream sounded stronger.

Minglou wanted to ask Wang Yan what the Japanese and Zhou Fuhai had said before, but unfortunately, he didn't find a chance this night.

Logically speaking, the two of them are neighbors and should go home together. But it is a pity that Wang Yan did not go home tonight. He hugged two Japanese girls on the left and one on the right. Nobuya Fujiwara, who also refused to admit defeat and hugged the two girls, swayed and left happily...
