The ship is about to dock. At this time, the Huangpu River coast is far less prosperous than in later generations. Xiao Tu (the protagonist in the future copies will use the name of the original drama) stands on the deck and looks into the distance. There are many Japanese sergeants on the pier. Looking at the leading man wearing a
Wearing a white suit, the specific appearance was not clear. As the distance got closer, Xiao Tu could see the other person's appearance clearly.
Shio Muto, the Consul General of the Japanese Consulate in Shanghai, is in charge of the intelligence organization of the Muto Mansion. I didn’t expect that he would be responsible for the reception.
As the leader of the group this time, Ashikaga Shisai was the first to get off the boat. However, before getting off the boat, he gestured with his hands to signal Xiao Tu to follow. Seeing this, everyone under the boat secretly guessed Xiao Tu's identity.
The descendants of the Ashikaga clan treat him with such solemnity.
Shio Muto stepped forward with a smile and said: "Ashikaga-kun, it's been a hard journey! After a long separation, I didn't expect that we could meet again in the Far East."
Ashikaga Shisai said calmly: "It's all serving the empire, not hard work. Muto-kun is presiding over the overall situation in Shencheng. It's hard work."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Ashikaga Shisai pointed out: "Muto-kun, I would like to introduce you to a talented person. This is Xiao Tu, the creator of "The Rise of the Great Powers". This time, he was recommended by my uncle to serve as the empire's foreign relations consultant.
Job."
Muto Shio looked surprised when he heard this. The uncle Ashikaga Shisai mentioned was the contemporary head of the famous Ashikaga clan in the country. He had a huge influence in the military and political circles. The reason why he paid so much attention to Ashikaga Shisai, a collateral descendant, was not without flattery.
In other words, although Ashikaga Shisai was from a side clan, his talents were outstanding and he was highly regarded by Ashikaga Seiki.
Shio Muto has also read the book "The Rise of Great Powers". The analysis of the rise of various countries in it is very vicious. It summarizes the important factors of the rise of various countries in a simple and profound way. I also admire the author Shio Muto very much. I didn't expect to meet the original author here today.
The author, and the other party was actually valued by Ashikaga Seiki. Even though the other party was a Chinese, Muto Shio had to take it seriously.
"It turns out that this young man is the original author of the famous "The Rise of Great Powers". I have also read this book. I thought the original author would be a middle-aged man. I didn't expect Xiao Jun to be so young. He is really young and promising! Xiao Jun
I am deeply pleased that you can serve the empire."
Of course Shoto will not treat Shio Muto like Ashikaga Shisai. The man in front of him is definitely a dangerous person. He has a very clear mind and can clearly grasp the current situation. In the original work, he knew that China could not be conquered through violent means, and advocated gentle control.
He ruled China by means of restraint. Fortunately, the military did not fully adopt his suggestions, otherwise it would have been dangerous.
Xiao Tu stretched out his hands and said: "Muto-kun, this is our first meeting, please take care of me!"
Muto Shioruo glanced at Xiao Tu meaningfully, and then the two shook hands.
"Xiao Jun must come to Wu Teng Mansion when you have time. I have a lot of things I want to discuss with Xiao Jun."
Xiao Tu nodded. He happened to want to take this opportunity to get in touch with Muto Shio. Compared with the original method of asking questions at a press conference to attract Muto's attention, the current method of contact was obviously better.
With Ashikaga Shisai's introduction, Muto Shio's wariness will be lowered invisibly. However, based on the other party's sophistication, even with Ashikaga Shisai as a guarantee, Muto will not trust him unreservedly in future contacts.
You also need to be careful. As long as a few clues are revealed against this kind of enemy, the end that awaits you will definitely not be a good one.
After the two parties communicated for a while, everyone set off and rushed to the New Asia Hotel. The New Asia Hotel was a well-known high-end hotel at that time, and its level of luxury was not inferior to the five-star hotels of later generations.
Ashikaga Shisai smiled and nodded when he saw the environment of the hotel. He was obviously very satisfied with Muto's arrangement. Seeing this, Muto Shio felt a little relieved, as long as the noble son was satisfied.
"Xiao Jun, what are your plans later?"
Xiao Tu said: "I plan to visit my teacher. It can be said that without him, I would not be where I am today."
Ashikaga Shisai asked curiously: "To be able to teach such an outstanding student as Xiao Jun, your teacher must be extraordinary. I would also like to meet him. Xiao Jun, wouldn't you mind if I go with you?"
Xiao Tu was a little surprised by Ashikaga's sudden request, but regardless of whether the other party was present and could witness the scene of the master-disciple breakup with his own eyes, it was obviously more convincing to hear it from Ashikaga's mouth afterwards. As for the teacher's response, Xiao Tu felt very relieved.
, as long as you see outsiders following you, you will definitely not show any flaws.
No. 32 Masinan Road, Xiao Tu reached out and knocked on the door.
"Xiao Tu?"
When Fang Min opened the door and saw Xiao Tu's figure, he was obviously stunned. He looked past Xiao Tu and saw a strange man following behind him, with a slightly subtle expression. The two were childhood sweethearts in the original drama and best friends in school.
"Fang Min, is the teacher here?"
Fang Min hesitated for a moment, then said, "You come in first, I'll call my father."
After saying this, Fang Min turned around and walked into the courtyard. Ashikaga Shisai smiled slightly: "Xiao Jun, who is this?"
"This is the teacher's daughter, a former classmate."
Ashikaga Shisai nodded and followed Xiao Tu's footsteps to the house. He saw that the room was full of calligraphy and paintings, and when he was about to speak, he heard the sound of footsteps.
Fang Hanzhou shouted angrily: "Xiao Tu, you beast, you still have the nerve to come back!"
As he spoke, he threw a thick book in his hand at Xiao Tu. With Xiao Tu's skill, he could easily dodge it, but in order to make things more realistic, Xiao Tu did not dodge.
Bang!
The book, which was like a brick, hit Xiao Tu's forehead. A gash was opened on his forehead instantly. Dots of bright red streaked down his face. The book fell to the ground and a library card slipped out. Xiao Tu noticed that
It has the words "Ji Ren Library" written on it. It seems that the teacher's response is not much different from that in the original drama.
Ashikaga Shisai said angrily: "You!"
Xiao Tu waved his hand to stop Ashikaga Shisai's anger: "Ashikaga-kun, I'm fine, he is my teacher after all."
When Fang Hanzhou saw this, he still refused and said: "Not long after you were imprisoned, the cadres of the student federation were persecuted! Tell me! Did you betray them? And the book you wrote is nonsense! I don't know what it means!
"
Xiao Tu could only respond in silence. He knew who did this. It was Zhao Zhongyi who was following Fang Hanzhou who betrayed the information. Now Fang Min's fiancé, this matter cannot be explained in public, let alone
Ashikaga Shisai, a Japanese, was present.
Fang Min frowned: "Xiao Tu, please speak!"
Fang Hanzhou was very relieved to see Xiao Tu's response like this, but he still looked like he hated iron and said, "That's what you said!"
Xiao Tu remained silent, and Fang Hanzhou became furious: "Get out! Get out of here! An ungrateful person like you should really learn what etiquette, justice and shame are all over again!"
