Chapter 287: The Face of Hypocrisy
Great good is great evil!
Although this sentence is not absolute, it is really understandable. If a person does good to the extreme, it is really a kind of "great evil". (Personal understanding, don't criticize if you don't like it)
This is the same as the fact that it is to promote Miqiu and fight Mien.
Andre’s “goodness” to Feen was based on the “evil” in his heart. If there was no evil, how could he give Feen a “goodness”?
Fein didn't know what Andre sent Ivan to call him over and say, but from the moment he stepped into the door of the "Earl" bar, he felt something was wrong.
Every night, the bar is the best business and the most lively at this time, but today, there is only one customer in the bar except Andre.
A woman he knows is named Liu Nina.
This time they are intermediaries and brokers in dealing with the Japanese.
There were no guests in the bar, Andre and Lyonina were talking whisperingly. Seeing Fein come in, they stood up, walked over, opened their arms and a caring hug.
"Fenn, you're finally here. I'll make a drink for you?"
"No, Andre, I drank too much last night and slept all day. I don't want to drink anymore." Fein had decided to quit drinking, so he naturally refused Andre's proposal.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure I won't drink today, just give me a glass of boiled water." Fein nodded solemnly.
"Ivan, pour you Uncle Fein a cup of hot water." Andrey smiled and ordered Ivan.
"Okay, adoptive father." Ivan was absolutely obedient to Andre, otherwise Andre would not have trusted him so much.
"Fenn, I think it's necessary to talk between us?" Andre walked towards Liunina's position with his arms around Feen's shoulder.
"I think so too." Fein was a little nervous, and couldn't help but clench his hands.
"Fenn, what is your relationship with that Chinese man named Tan?" Andrei sat down and asked seriously.
"friend."
Fein Road.
"Uncle Fein, give you hot water." Ivan held a glass cup and put it in front of Fein.
"Fenn, I hope you can tell me the truth. Is that batch of arms in Tan Si's hands?" Andre's eyes had changed.
"I don't know that that day, your subordinates and I were attacked at the same time, and we didn't see clearly at all." Fein suddenly understood, "Andre, are you suspicious of me?"
"Fenn, do you know who Tan Si is?" Andrei asked sternly.
Fein blinked. He did not know Tan Si's identity very well, but he could feel that Tan Si had no malice towards him.
"You don't know yet that Tan Si is a very dangerous person. In the past six months, many kidnapping and assassination activities in the concession have been involved in him. He is a terrorist, do you know?"
"Who did he assassinate and kidnap?" Fein asked. He would not believe anything now just because Andre said.
He has his own judgment, at least he will feel and analyze it himself.
"He has done so many evil things, such as assassinating Inspector Tan of the Public Concession, killing Inspector General Hua Lu Liankui, kidnapping the Japanese General Staff Special Envoy Mr. Haruki, etc., Fein, such a dangerous person, are you actually friends with him?" Andrei said excitedly.
"Andre, you mean he is an anti-Japanese element, right?" Fein asked back.
"What?" Andre was stunned.
"The people you mentioned are all called traitors by the Chinese. Although I don't like to communicate with others, I read newspapers. When the two people you mentioned and the Japanese were kidnapped, the Chinese newspapers in the concession were applauded." Fein said slowly.
"What do you mean, Fein?"
"My country is invading other countries, and Japan is invading China. Are these four indisputable facts? Is this so-called resistance a terrorist?" Fein suddenly turned his head and pointed it at Liunina, "Miss Liunina, what do you think?"
"I, Mr. Fein, I only care about this transaction. How much commission can I get?" Liu Nina shrugged her shoulders in a pretentious manner.
"How much commission Andre will give you, I'll give you twice." Fein smiled slightly.
"Fenn, what do you want to do?" Andre was stunned, and then he showed a look of fear. Feen, who had always been obedient, actually had such active and aggressive words.
"Is that true, does Mr. Fein know what I want?" Liu Nina giggled, and she felt aroused. It would not be a bad thing to just work with Fein.
At least this Fein is not a cunning person like Andre, and it is easier to control.
"My hands and my brain." Fein spread his hands and pointed at his head.
"Gee..." Liu Nina smiled and said, "Mr. Fein is so good at joking. Your hands are rough with those machines every day. What's the point of my life? As for your head, it's really not worth much money. I don't want it, that's just Mr. Andre."
"Is that so? I thought my brain would be useful to the Japanese behind you." Fein sighed.
"Okay, Fein, I won't talk about this anymore. I've found Anna. She's here with me. But she was frightened and refused to come out. I'll take you over to see her?" Andre said with a gloomy face.
Fein would not make such a joke for no reason. He must have guessed something or had already doubted himself.
"Where is Anna? Take me to see her."
"Don't worry, she was very unstable. She locked herself in a small house alone, and hid in the corner without saying anything." Andrey said.
"Hurry, I want to see Anna, Andre, take me there..."
...
"Anna, Anna, my daughter, dad is here, dad is here to pick you up home..."
"Let's go home with dad."
"Fenn, can you live in your place? Anna just arrived in Shanghai and Martha was still in Tan Si's hands. You were monitored by the French arrest room again. It was too dangerous to go back and live." Andre stopped Fenn and said.
"Andre, what do you mean?" Fein was furious.
"Fenn, for the safety of you and Anna's niece, from now on, you father and daughter must follow my arrangements." Andrey said.
He can't let Fein be outside, let alone let him meet Tan Si again. He must control Fein and his daughter in his own hands.
"Mr. Fein, Mr. Andrei is also considering you and Miss Anna. He is much better here than your dirty nest." Lyonina smiled.
"Andre, are you from the same group?" Fein woke up in a dream.
"No, Fein, the three of us are in the same group." Andrey said.
"Andre, give me an explanation?"
"Okay, Fein, let me tell you clearly. With the little arms we have, we can only sell at most 100,000 US dollars. What can we do after we arrive in the United States? No, I don't want to live such a dull life. I want to become a powerful person. It is impossible to achieve it in Shanghai. Only by going to the United States, I need a lot of money. I want to acquire a mine, a mine that can increase my wealth by ten times or a hundred times. I want to become one of the richest people in the world." Andre said excitedly.
"Andre, you're crazy, are you not rich enough?" Fein said, "The money you have is enough for you to spend the rest of your life comfortably."
"Fenn, I did not ask you to live your pastoral life like me, and I can have my ideals. We have so many years of friendship, and I will not do anything to you." Andrey said, "As long as you help me realize this ideal, I will only help you realize your ideal."
"So, you just steal my design drawings repeatedly?"
"Does your design drawings work in your hands? They are not worth it yet. But in my hands, I can turn them into gold and dollars. It will make us rich. If you want to be carefree for the rest of your life, you have to rely on them, do you understand?"
"You want to sell them to a Japanese, right?"
"Yes, only those who know the goods know their value. Fein, do you know how much the gun drawings you designed are worth?"
Fein shook his head.
"One million US dollars!"
Andre must have given some drawings for the Japanese to identify, otherwise he would not have given such a price. Whether his design is worth one million US dollars, Fein himself couldn't explain it clearly.
However, guns are weapons, which are equivalent to tableware for eating. Westerners are used to using knives and forks, while Easterners like to use chopsticks.
The guns he designed were based on the use habits of Europeans, especially German soldiers as the standard. Europeans and Asians have huge differences in races, and their requirements and use habits for weapons are different.
As an engineer at the Krupp Arsenal, he has done research on the use of German equipment in China, such as the Mauser pistol.
In Europe, there are very few people who like this pistol with extremely poor accuracy, but in China, this pistol is very popular.
Sometimes it is well designed, but it is not suitable for people.
Of course, the design can be modified so that it can be in line with your use habits.
If Andre had told him frankly at the beginning, he might have believed it, but now he has no idea that the Japanese would spend a million dollars to buy his designs.
If he were a citizen of the German Empire, he might have some hope.
But he is not.
Although he did not personally understand the Japanese army's robbery in China, he could see and hear it.
"Andre, you dream, the Japanese will give you a million dollars?"
"Mr. Fein, the Japanese Empire is still very generous to its friends. Andrei provided some drawings and gave all the deposit." Liu Nina said.
"Luenina is right. Today I'm here to tell you what I'm talking about. The deposit is 100,000 US dollars and Citibank promissory note. I'll show you." Andre turned around and received a check in a short while.
"Is this one hundred thousand dollars for you or me?"
"Of course it's for you." Andre hesitated.
"Then can I keep it?" Fein asked.
"this……"
"You have detained me now, and are you still worried that I will go to the bank to withdraw the money?" Fein said with a humming voice.
"Andre, let's keep it for Mr. Fein, how much is this?" Lyunina smiled.
"Okay, Fein, you've collected it, it's 100,000 US dollars." Andre has accumulated over the years, and in addition to real estate, the deposits in the bank are converted into US dollars by only about 300,000 US dollars.
