In the evening, when they returned home after dinner, Cai'er thoughtfully left some food for Zhang Dong to bring back.
"What's going on? Why are you doing this so late today?" Liu Limao couldn't help laughing while sitting on the sofa.
"Aunt Xiang showed up next to Fujii Jin, so I can't blatantly drag the body." Zhang Dong rolled his eyes: "Madam is still thinking of me."
He sat in front of the coffee table: "I won't just eat preserved fruit tonight."
"Where my wife is thinking about you, it is Cai'er who is clearly thinking about you. She was afraid that you would eat whatever you wanted at home alone at night, so she left some food for you in advance."
"That's right, sir, you won't think about this anyway." Zhang Dong retorted, took the lunch box from Cai'er, opened it directly on the coffee table and ate it in: "You haven't told me the specific burial location yet.
I didn’t dare to be buried in the Mu family’s cemetery, so I took advantage of the darkness and buried myself directly in the woods in the cemetery.”
"Make a mark, and when the limelight of this matter is over, I will take Brother Li to worship." Mu Fu put it in her handbag, took the tea sent by Cai'er, and took a sip of water to relieve her tiredness.
"What is there to worship? She did so many stupid things before. I brought her body back. The kindness of raising her in the past ten years has been wiped out."
"It all depends on what you think. I don't know when Aunt Li will be back today."
"Have you forgotten? What we allow is to come back tomorrow." Liu Limao smiled faintly and said: "It's still not possible to take turns cooking in this family. We really need someone to come back and help us get things done."
"Why, do you want to completely integrate that person into the Mu family and work peacefully in the Mu family?" Zhang Dong glared and said: This is the rhythm for me to do things again.
"I didn't say it. It's just that he is involved with another government after all. If we have a close relationship, it may arouse suspicion." Liu Limao sighed.
"This is the fifth time you sighed today. Tell me, what happened?" Mu Fu said with a smile: This guy either won't tell or won't ask.
"I was reminded by Li Xie today that I should have less contact with the Song family. Although there are properties left by the Mu family that need to be dealt with by the Song family, you must take the initiative to deal with them."
"A new superior? Are you so lenient?" Mu Fu glared: "Or because of the special status of the Song family, a new round of confrontation has set off in the base area, so we also need to communicate appropriately with them.
Cutting?”
"That's right." Liu Limao nodded: So I won't do business matters myself in the future, I need you to do it for me."
"What should I do for you? It's nothing more than money coming into the account, and Mrs. Li is now separated from Song Jianbai, so I don't know what to do for me." She couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Okay, this is the situation now." Liu Limao said in a good voice.
"Mr. Jiang is really ignorant. Now, when we are unanimously speaking to the outside world, he makes such a fool of himself."
It was getting late, so Mu Fu and Liu Limao went directly upstairs.
But Cai'er discovered that Liu Limao still had unfinished words.
"Is Brother Li hiding something from us?"
"Hiding it? Could it be that he met Asano today?" Zhang Dong thought for a while and continued: "Yes, he and Asano drank coffee for a long time in a coffee shop near your school today."
"How did you know? Did Brother Li call you?" Cai'er's eyes widened, looking very surprised.
"Today Liu Zi went to do business near your school. Someone there was eyeing one of their strongholds in the Black Fire Market, so he went over to negotiate in person."
"I see……"
After Cai'er knew what she wanted to know, she left the living room.
The next morning, Li Jingui returned home as promised and made breakfast for them.
But Liu Limao still didn't say a word, and then asked Zhang Dong to drive him to a place.
While in the car, Zhang Dong finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Why didn't you tell Madam about your half-day stay at the medical school?"
"What did I say? Did she deliberately make trouble for others?" Liu Limao glared: "In any case, this relationship is settled. I have to think about how to prevent Asano from delaying my affairs.
."
"Then how can you say that? After all, it was Asano who bullied others first. You have to take revenge on Madam." Zhang Dong muttered, expressing his confusion.
"What are you thinking? She is my wife. Of course I have to help her get this place back. We have to do it slowly."
He paused and continued: "The person I am going to meet today has something to do with me going to the Iwai Mansion to continue doing things."
"It turns out you are meeting Mr. Iwai. Why don't you tell me earlier and ask my wife to prepare some gifts for you."
"To Eiichi Iwai, I am a gift. As long as there are no stains on my resume, he can't wait for me to go back to work."
"Then why did he invite you today?"
"Of course it's because I've been delayed these days, so I came here to invite you in person."
Zhang Dong rolled his eyes in confusion: "Sure enough, dealing with non-organized people is so troublesome."
He sighed: "There is a Japanese restaurant where he invited you today, but you are not?"
"I still eat." Liu Limao pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't eat, it's just that I'm too lazy to pretend when I face people I don't want to deal with. And in our industry, there are too many temptations, so we need to maintain our own integrity at all times.
Only with your true heart can you keep going."
"Okay, I can't help you. But you have to think carefully about Asano's matter, otherwise, if you really play with fire, my wife will fight you desperately."
"It's easy to kill him, but it's difficult to see how to kill him to create value for us."
While talking, the car stopped in an alley.
This Japanese restaurant is relatively quiet and decorated in a purely Japanese style. You have to take off your shoes when entering and put on your kimono before you can continue inside.
"This store reveals its weirdness."
"Please keep your voice down, it's just because they are afraid that the anti-Japanese elements will sneak in here with murderous weapons and assassinate important people." Liu Limao said calmly: "We will chat later. If you are really not used to it, just walk out and go outside.
Shake it off. I originally just asked you to come and let you come into the mansion to assist me in my work."
"Then I behave better, otherwise you won't have any help when you go in." Zhang Dong pursed his lips.
I was led all the way to a private room by a woman in kimono...
The reply in proficient Chinese was: "Please come in."
Hearing this, the kimono woman said: "Just go in."
"Thank you." Liu Limao nodded slightly and said to Zhang Dong, "Go and open the door."
"yes."
Zhang Dong arranged his clothes, walked to the door and opened the first door. It turned out that there was still a curtain, so he opened the curtain again and let Liu Limao walk in.
"I haven't seen you for many days, Mr. Iwai, but his smile is still there." Liu Limao stepped forward to shake hands with him, and sat on the tatami like the man opposite him.
Zhang Dongke was embarrassed and could only follow the gourd's example, bowing and shaking hands with the people on the opposite side in turn, and then sat down next to Liu Li's hiding place.
"How was the injury on the 76th? You should be almost recovered by now."
After a few people were seated, the entourage opposite went directly to order food outside.
Just when Zhang Dong wanted to get up and help, Liu Limao grabbed him by the corner of his clothes and made him unable to move.
"It's not life-threatening. I'm just keeping it at home anyway." Liu Limao said with a smile: "You said on the phone that you wanted me to bring an assistant over to take a look. This is my right-hand assistant who has been working in the new government. He is very useful.
Once you get it, you won’t want to change it.”
"You want me to go to the new government to recruit people." Mr. Iwai said with a smile: "This person is also from the Mu family."
"Yes, I used to serve as a backup for my eldest brother's secretary-general. After all, it is more convenient to use one's own family than to use outsiders. Later, after the war, the family business was gone, so he has been working with me."
"That's right. Since I can be appreciated by you, let me bring you into Iwai Mansion to do things together. Now Asano beside me is thinking about other things all the time, and I am tired of it. If it weren't for the fact that we are both members of the Japanese Empire
Man, I really want to shoot him."
"This kind of thing is an internal matter for you, and he was injured when he was defending my home before. If he loses his job because of this kind of thing, I'm afraid he will hold a grudge."
"I'm not the kind of person who treats my subordinates harshly. It's just that the relationship between him and you is too strong. When I first hired him to work at Iwai Mansion, I just wanted to give you a sense of belonging." Iwai said with a faint smile.
"It's a pity that Shanghai is my home. I work at home. This is the most sense of belonging." Liu Limao pointed out.
At this time, Mr. Fujiwara was drinking in another box and saw the samurai who usually followed Mr. Iwai and walked in without saying hello.
"Mr. Fujiwara, is this the Japanese etiquette you learned? I don't think I let you in." Eiichi Iwai turned cold and expressed his dissatisfaction with this behavior.
"I just want to see who is worthy of you coming out of the mansion to meet the guests. Please forgive me. Since Mr. Liu is going back to the mansion, he still has to do the things he should do."
"Then will you ask Mr. Fujiwara to cooperate more in the future?"
"It's natural. After all, with you here, we have a lot less things to do. And only you can satisfy Mr. Iwai, and our pressure will be much less." Fujiwara smiled, turned around and bowed to Mr. Iwai: "Sorry to bother you.
.If you want to hold you accountable, I have no choice but to hold you accountable."
"For his sake, I won't pursue this matter." Mr. Iwai glanced at Liu Limao and found that he had no other expression. He just wanted to send the man in front of him away, so
, and no longer pursue anything.
The person who had to leave left, and the waiter served a few plates of sushi.
Zhang Dong wanted to grin when he looked at the food, but Liu Limao glared at him.
Okay, I can tolerate it...
He was never told why he had to eat these raw and cold foods to work in the Iwai Mansion.
Oh my god, what kind of barren country is that?
Zhang Dong picked up a piece of sashimi with tears in his eyes, thinking about pretending to eat it.
But the warrior opposite him kept staring at him, and he swallowed it in one gulp.
