Of course, Ning Zhiheng was reluctant to ask for the proposal of Takeshi Ishikawa. He was worried that there were no familiar people in the Japanese-occupied area to cover up his own situation, and it was inconvenient to do things. Now that he met Takeshi Ishikawa, it was a good opportunity. After all, now in the Japanese-occupied area, the military power is the greatest, and he can ask him to help with many things.

"I'm just thinking about it, let's have a good drink later!" Ning Zhiheng nodded and agreed.

He turned around and returned to the rest area to wait. Soon, Takeshi Ishikawa arranged the two men, and then came to Ning Zhiheng and sat down.

Ning Zhiheng and Takeshi Ishikawa met again, and they were both very happy. Takeshi Ishikawa invited them to go out for a drink together.

Japanese people who like to drink like wine all like to go to taverns such as barbecues. After all, three or two close friends like to find a small space they are familiar with. A formal hotel like Kasuga Hotel is not suitable.

Ning Zhiheng followed Takeshi Ishikawa out, Ning Zhiheng pointed to his Buick sedan and said, "Ishikawa, let's take my car."

Takeshi Ishikawa himself drove a military vehicle to take the guests to stay. He was about to invite Ning Zhiheng to get on the bus, but he didn't expect that Ning Zhiheng was driving a Buick sedan as well.

"Kun Fujiwara, is this your car?" Although Takeshi Ishikawa saw that Ning Zhiheng's mental state and clothes were very different from before, he guessed that he must have done well in the past few months, he never thought that Ning Zhiheng had made a fortune to this point.

The current price of a brand new Buick sedan is by no means ordinary people can imagine. Takeshi Ishikawa came to the front of the Buick sedan.

At this time, Yi Huaan, who had been waiting in the driver's seat, saw a Japanese officer walking to the front of the car and was shocked. Fortunately, he saw Ning Zhiheng behind Takeshi Ishikawa, and quickly got out of the car and opened the door for Ning Zhiheng.

"This is the latest American sedan. I brought it back to Shanghai from Hong Kong. Ishikawa Jun, please get on the car!" Ning Zhiheng made a gesture of invitation and invited Ishikawa into the car.

The car came to a small wine room. After Ning Zhiheng and Takeshi Ishikawa entered, they sat opposite each other, raised their glasses and invited each other, and told them the details of the parting.

It turned out that in the early stage of the Battle of Shanghai, Takeshi Ishikawa performed well in resisting the attack of the Chinese army, and was finally promoted after the war. He is now a major officer of the Shanghai Governor Command.

Ning Zhiheng's description of himself was that he left Shanghai before the war broke out, and later transferred to Hong Kong. He used the money given to him by Kuroki Yasui to start a Fujiwara company, which mainly engaged in commercial trade with all over the world. By chance, he earned a lot of money. This time he came back to find Mr. Kuroki Yasui.

"Hong Kong is the jurisdiction of the British. We Japanese have no power wherever we are. Fujiwara, you should pay more attention to doing business there!" Ishikawa Takeshi couldn't help but say with some concern when he heard that Ning Zhiheng had actually gone to Hong Kong to do business alone.

Ning Zhiheng's expression was also helpless. He sighed and said, "Hong Kong has a superior geographical location and is a good place to do business, but it is the territory of the British and is surrounded by Chinese people, so it is still very unfriendly to us Japanese.

For this reason, I hired a lot of Chinese people in my company, and they manage their general business. I rarely come forward. Actually, I prefer to be in Shanghai. We are all Japanese here, and I feel that they are no different from China, so I think this time I come back and settle down."

Ning Zhiheng cleverly explained the reason why he returned to Shanghai. Hong Kong was under the jurisdiction of the British during this period. Because the relationship between the British and the Japanese had been tense and they were very boycotted by the Japanese, the Japanese had almost no power in Hong Kong, and the situation that Ning Zhiheng said could not be confirmed. It was precisely because of this that Ning Zhiheng designed his place of success in Hong Kong.

Moreover, Ning Zhiheng's current identity is just an ordinary Japanese expatriate. As long as he does not intervene in the intelligence department, no one will spend so much effort to do such tedious verification work. If he verifies these million expatriates one by one, it would be impossible to do it no matter how he thinks.

Takeshi Ishikawa also agreed: "If you want to do business, you are better than in Shanghai. This is the most developed city in Asia. Goods from all over the world will enter this metropolis first, and supplies from all over China will also be gathered here. Fujiwara, I advise you to open a trade deal here, and the business is definitely better than in Hong Kong."

Ning Zhiheng thought about it carefully, and looked moved by the way Ishikawa Takeshi said, and finally nodded and said, "Ishikawa, your proposal is really good, but the current business environment in Shanghai is far from recovering. I will consider it after a while."

After saying that, he raised his glass and said with a smile: "Kun Ishikawa, let's have a drink for your proposal. If we open a new trading company in the future, we will be a shareholder. We brothers will work together to make a career in this largest city in the Far East."

"Really? Haha, Fujiwara, I'm sure! Let's do some results here together and let the guys in the country take a look. We are not worse than them! Come on, have a drink!" Ishikawa Takeshi's heart was thrilled when he heard Ning Zhiheng's words and agreed repeatedly.

Takeshi Ishikawa is a descendant of the Ishikawa family. Although he is known as a noble child, his living environment is far from that of a real direct descendant.

The true direct children have a superior family environment and enjoy the best education and care since childhood. When they grow up, the family resources tend to be more inclined to them. Of course, their status and achievements are far greater than those of their children in the other branches.

Children of a side branch like Takeshi Ishikawa, in the end, could only join the army to make a future.

Ning Zhiheng's identity concealment, Fujiwara Tomori's true experience was even worse. His family was in a destitute and his living environment was not better than that of ordinary civilians. After both parents died, his sister married far away and could not support her in China. Then she embarked on a steamship to immigrate to China. As a result, she fell ill as soon as she got off the ship and died of illness in the hospital. She was extremely destitute.

Therefore, after these people left the country, they were very resentful to their direct children. Being able to achieve something outside and glorify their hometown was their obsession.

This is the case with Takeshi Ishikawa, and he himself is indeed short of money. He was naturally very happy to hear that Ning Zhiheng was willing to bring him into business.

Ning Zhiheng asked again: "Ishikawa, do you know that General Uehara is still in Shanghai now? I just came back and planned to visit him. After all, the general is very caring for me!"

When Takeshi Ishikawa heard this, he knew it in his heart. You must know that when the war was about to begin, Tomohito Fujiwara was in Shanghai, but he quickly left. The young and strong men who were temporarily recruited in the early stages of the war suffered great losses.

I think that when the battle situation was not clear, Fujiwara Jun was able to leave Shanghai in time and go to Hong Kong to avoid disaster. I am afraid that he was reminded by General Uehara.

"General Uehara is now on the front line in Nanjing, and the front line is progressing smoothly. It is estimated that the front line will still be pushed forward after Nanjing. As the person in charge of military intelligence, he probably won't be able to come back in a short time." Takeshi Ishikawa replied.

"But there should be a chance. After all, Shanghai is the headquarters of the East China Intelligence Agency, and General Uehara will come back sooner or later to preside over the work."

Ning Zhiheng nodded and continued, "I found an intermediary today and asked him to find it for me and buy a property. He planned to live in Shanghai for a long time. In the future, I will ask Ishikawa Jun to take care of him!"

When Ishikawa Takeshi heard Ning Zhiheng's words, he was even more happy. Ning Zhiheng was preparing to live in Shanghai for a long time, which means that he really attached great importance to his proposal, and the matter of this trade business was even more secure.

He asked Ning Zhiheng about the specific situation carefully, and nodded immediately and said, "I understand that these brokers cannot do accurate things. It's just that they spend money to find a way. For the sake of insurance, I'll go to the city hall to ask. The property that the Chinese people are stranded should be under their jurisdiction. I will book a house. There is no big problem."

Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "If Ishikawa Jun comes forward, there will be no problem, thank you!"

Takeshi Ishikawa looked at Ning Zhiheng and shook his head, pointed at him with his hand, and said indifferently: "Kun Fujiwara, you are still too literary and popular. Do you still need to be polite with those businessmen as ours? As long as you take out your Fujiwara family's name, how dare they compete with us."

His meaning is very obvious. People who want to buy good real estate are nothing more than those civilian businessmen, but Japanese society is clearly divided. If aristocrats intervene among the buyers, those civilian businessmen will generally not compete with them.

Of course Ning Zhiheng understood this, but he was not afraid of investigation in China, but if he acted too high-profile and attracted the attention of those who were interested, it would be difficult to say nothing of the problem.

So he had planned to use money to solve the problem before, but now Ishikawa Takeshi is willing to come forward, so he naturally has no choice.

The two of them had decided to discuss and talked for a long time. Then they stopped drinking and drove back to the Shunki Hotel. The two broke up and left.

That night, in a villa in the French Concession, Huo Yueze and Ji Hongyi were sitting opposite Phillips, the military officer of the US Consulate.

Phillips was in his early forties, tall figure, blonde curly hair unique to Westerners, and his deep concave eyes were shining with a hint of gleam.

"Mr. Chen, you found me. This is indeed a very correct choice. I don't know what I can help you." Phillips asked with a smile in fluent Chinese.
