Chapter 1209 Uncle and nephew go to a banquet

The next morning, someone came to Ning Zhiheng's mansion to pay homage. It turned out that Zhou Fushan and Wen Hao came together.

The two of them appeared in front of Ning Zhiheng together, which surprised Ning Zhiheng. You must know that when Wen Hao first came to Nanjing, Zhou Fushan was also embarrassed by Wen Hao because of No. 76. It was not until Wen Hao hugged Yuzhi Imai's thigh that Zhou Fushan stopped. However, now it seems that the two get along well.

In the study, the two of them presented the gifts in their hands, which were naturally precious antiques they had collected with great care. Ning Zhiheng refused everyone, and after appreciating them, he was naturally satisfied and smiled.

The three of them sat down again, Ning Zhiheng asked with a smile: "Wenjun, I thought you and Imai Jun would come together. Why, is he very busy with work?"

Wen Hao quickly explained respectfully: "Court Chief Imai is indeed a little incapable of being out of touch, because a grand banquet will be held at the consulate tonight. The participants are all officials and celebrities with important positions, with a high level of security, and are all under the responsibility of the Special High School and the Gendarmerie Command. Therefore, Chief Imai and Commander Koda are both preparing security work."

"Oh! So that's how it is!" Ning Zhiheng nodded and looked at Zhou Fushan again, "I didn't expect that you and Zhou Jun also had a good relationship."

Wen Hao knew that Mr. Fujiwara wanted to ask clearly about the relationship between him and Zhou Fushan. Some things should be said or not, and they should be considered. He couldn't help but nod in his heart. Mr. Fujiwara had been in the top position for a long time and had his own rules when dealing with people.

"Actually, Minister Zhou and I have always gotten along well. Before, it was because of Li Zhiqun that I had some misunderstandings. Now I work in the Supervision Bureau, and Minister Zhou has been taking good care of me. This time, I know that I am coming to visit you, so I came with me!"

I understand! The two formed an alliance because they were full of hatred and hostility towards Li Zhiqun. Wen Hao even grabbed Zhou Fushan and expressed his closeness to him.

Ning Zhiheng glanced at Wen Hao, then turned to Zhou Fushan, and said with a smile: "It seems that Wen Jun's work in the Supervision Bureau is going well. Thank you for your care!"

Zhou Fushan replied with a smile on his face: "You are polite. Minister Wen is smart and capable, and his performance in work is impeccable. I just follow the favors and I should do it!"

Ning Zhiheng nodded with satisfaction. You should know that Zhou Fushan is Wang Baihai's confidant and the third person in the Nanjing government. If Wen Hao can form an alliance with him, he will naturally not be isolated and excluded like Li Zhiqun. From this, we can see that in terms of personal affairs in the officialdom, Wen Hao has surpassed Li Zhiqun several streets.

Ning Zhiheng had long wanted to win over Zhou Fushan. Ning Zhiheng also knew about this person's historical background. This person was born in the Red Party in his early years. Later, the revolutionary situation was bad, so he betrayed the revolution and turned to join the Kuomintang. When the Japanese gained power, they saw that the situation of the Kuomintang was unfavorable, and they followed Wang Baihai and surrendered to the Japanese and became a traitor.

It can be said that this person is capricious and has the least firm position. Everything is based on his own interests. He has no belief or position at all. Even now, he is not loyal to Wang Baihai and the Japanese. Such a greedy and shameless politician can easily win over as long as he has the temptation of interests. He can use it.

Ning Zhiheng smiled and said to Zhou Fushan: "Mr. Zhou and I are also old friends. We are not outsiders, so we should get closer in the future."

After hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Zhou Fuyuyama was even more excited. He and Tomohito Fujiwara had only had a brief contact in Shanghai, so he came to ask for help. He used Tomohito Fujiwara's hand to make Li Zhiqun talk. Now that he has been affirmed by Tomohito Fujiwara, his relationship will naturally be further.

"Sir, I am flattered by my humble position. I will always ask you for help in the future!" Zhou Fushan said respectfully.

Ning Zhiheng continued: "Jun Zhou, how is the current operation of China Reserve Bank of China? You are the president. If you have any news, please notify me in time. I heard that China Reserve Bank of China has just been issued for a few months, and you are interested in changing the exchange rate. Is that true?"

Zhou Fushan quickly explained: "This is not our decision, but the meaning of Japanese experts. They believe that the exchange rate set before is too low and it is cheaper for the Chongqing government. But don't worry, it has not been decided yet. If there is any news, I will report to you in advance!"

"Okay!" Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "By the way, Li Zhiqun's currency storage in Shanghai is doing a great job. Will this have any impact on you and Wen Jun?"

When Ning Zhiheng heard this, the two people sitting there suddenly felt enlightened. This time they came to pay homage to Fujiwara Tomohito, most of them came for this matter.

Wen Hao said first: "It has indeed had a great impact. Since Li Zhiqun returned to Nanjing, he has been very arrogant and recruited police officers, enriched equipment, expanded the strength of the police department, and set his sights on our territory of No. 21. Even the words of Section Chief Imai were disobedient, but General Yingzuo trusted him more and more, and Section Chief Imai was powerless."

Zhou Fushan also quickly said, "Sir, if you don't die from killing a snake, you will suffer. We have not controlled him to death in Shanghai. Now he has recovered and has the money to smuggle again. He is rich and powerful, and is not under my control at all. He has made things difficult for me at government meetings many times. His attitude is bad, which makes me embarrassed. I am considering the overall situation and tolerating him in every way, but this is not the solution!"

Seeing the two people complaining, Ning Zhiheng knew that it seemed that they had been oppressed by Li Zhiqun recently. Li Zhiqun's smuggling business made a lot of profits, which made Ying Zuo Yushu very satisfied. This made Li Zhiqun even more supportive, Wen Hao and Zhou Fushan felt threatened, and then came to ask for their support.

Ning Zhiheng had long planned for this, and he must not let Li Zhiqun dominate, so he had to support Wen Hao and Li Zhiqun to form internal friction before, and now this is the same idea.

Thinking of this, he frowned and said with some regret: "What you said is that last time I originally planned to deal with Li Zhiqun, but General Yingzuo came forward to talk to him, so I had to give him a face, but I would talk to General Yingzuo to let Li Zhiqun restrain himself, but he expanded in the name of the police department, which is indeed a troublesome thing."

When Yuzhi Imai came forward to negotiate with Haruki Masaliang, they had already agreed to each other. The forces on No. 76 did not enter Nanjing, but Li Zhiqun developed his power in the name of the Ministry of Police. This is to change the soup or not, which is indeed a bit tricky.

Ning Zhiheng continued: "But don't worry, I will take this matter to heart. I will do it slowly. I have my own way."

Ning Zhiheng knew that with the support of Yingsa Yushu, he would not be able to really attack Li Zhiqun. Besides, Li Zhiqun is quite obedient to him now and the threat is not great. There is no need to risk breaking up with Yingsa Yushu and take action against Li Zhiqun. He had to secretly support Wen Hao and Zhou Fushan and play a role in hindrance, so he was temporarily evaded and then depends on the situation in the future.

Hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, the two of them felt relieved, and they stayed for a while before they got up and said goodbye.

It was around six o'clock in the evening, and Ning Zhiheng came to Chunping Uehara's mansion. After the uncle and nephew met, they rushed to the Consulate General together.

When we arrived at the consulate, we were surrounded by guards. The Japanese senior officials naturally did not dare to take such a high-level banquet. All security forces were all made using Japanese military power, and even Wen Hao's No. 21 was not qualified to participate.

The convoy passed the checkpoint and then entered the consulate. At this time, the gate of the consulate was open, and military and political officials from the Japanese and Nanjing governments kept coming, entering the consulate in groups of three or three, which was very lively.

Consul General Hirou Yichun, with several entourage officials, guarded the door and welcomed all kinds of guests. Whenever guests arrived, he would greet them enthusiastically, and then there were people behind him leading the guests to the banquet hall.

Seeing Junpei Uehara and Ning Zhiheng appear, Ichijun dared not be negligent. He quickly threw away everyone, ran a few steps to meet him, came to Junpei Uehara to bow deeply, and said, "General Uehara, President Fujiwara, I will admire you for more than me!"

After saying that, he turned around and made a gesture of invitation, and personally led the two of them to the arranged banquet hall.

The banquet hall is very large, and the flowers are arranged in it, and all the furnishings are luxurious. A large platform is arranged on the north side, which is used for speeches and performances. The entire hall is divided into several small areas, and personnel from both Japanese and puppets are arranged respectively. The seats near the platform are naturally the VIP seats with the highest status. Other areas have their own arrangements according to their status and status.

There is a long table on the passage between the area, with fresh fruits, fine wine and delicacies on it, rich and diverse. Japanese waiters wearing uniform costumes are standing by, everything is arranged in an orderly and clear manner.

At this time, many guests had arrived in the banquet hall, all of whom were senior officials of the Japanese and puppet governments, celebrities from the political and business circles and their families, men and women attended the event in great costumes, and the scene was very lively.

As soon as the group entered the hall, someone saw them. Some of them had the identities greeted them, while those with lower status froze across the side. The uncle and nephew were socializing all the way, and soon, under the leadership of the Duke Yichun, they arrived at the VIP seat.

At this time, Eiju Kiyomizu and the other two members of the parliament were already sitting in the main seat. When they saw the two people coming, they all stood up to greet them. Junpei Uehara and Ning Zhiheng quickly nodded and returned their salute.

Hideho Kiyomizu laughed and said, "Mr. Uehara, your uncle and nephew are late. We have been waiting for a long time. We need to drink a few more drinks later!"
