Chapter 1197: Xuanle Building (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Zhu Muyun worked hard for the Japanese, although it was very shameful. However, in the case of the electric light company, there is some truth in what he said. If the merchants of the ancient star unite and buy the electric light company. The Japanese will never give up, they have 10,000 ways to rob and rob them.
Duanmuqiang and other wealthy businessmen also discussed in detail that the electric light company would be directly annexed by the Japanese in the hands of Moore. If it is in the hands of the Chinese, the Japanese will not hesitate.
Without the support of the state, in the face of the aggressor, no matter how enthusiastic the businessman is, it is insignificant. This is their sorrow, but also the sorrow of the country and the sorrow of the nation.
Two days later, Matsumoto Yonosuke returned to Zhu Muyun's office. He expressed his gratitude to Zhu Muyun for his ability to act, although this kind of thing can be done by the Japanese. However, Zhu Muyun did not need to damage the reputation of the Japanese. Although the Japanese occupied China's territory, they still did not want to provoke everyone's resistance.
The catastrophe in Nanjing united all Chinese. All the Chinese who heard about it became active in resisting Japan. This was something that the Japanese did not expect at the time, believing that as long as enough violence was exerted, the weak and incompetent Chinese would definitely give in.
But they were wrong, and they were wrong. The Chinese are therefore closely united, and they use their own modest strength to support the country's war of resistance. In Nanjing, the Japanese stirred up the people's national hatred and family hatred, and in Guxing, the Japanese army always wanted to restore the economy of Guxing and restore the inhabitants of Guxing to the pre-occupation state.
If Guxing is uninhabited, even if the Japanese army occupies it for a long time, what is the point? It's better to occupy a hill, and you won't encounter so much resistance.
Therefore, the Japanese army's policy towards Gu Xing will not be too drastic. They want to give the Chinese a way to live, and as long as they are not provoked to the point where there is no way back, the Chinese will not resist. The Japanese army and the people of Guxing only have national hatred and no family hatred.
If the Chinese did buy the electric light company, Huazhong Hydropower Co., Ltd. would take the electric light company from Chinese businessmen. When the time comes, there will be not only national hatred, but also family hatred. In the process of robbery, it will definitely be bloody.
"Director Zhu, thank you for your help to Huazhong Hydropower Co., Ltd." Matsumoto Yonosuke said very politely that he likes Zhu Muyun more and more now. Obedient, capable, and easy-going, such a minion will certainly win the trust of the Japanese.
"It's my greatest honor to be able to do something for President Matsumoto." Zhu Muyun said politely.
"Moore is now alone, and soon, the Electric Light Company will be owned by the Empire." Matsumoto Kanosuke smiled triumphantly.
"Moore squeezed our hard-earned money in Guxing, and now the electric light company is back in the hands of President Matsumoto, which is a blessing to the empire and the people of Guxing." Zhu Muyun said.
When Zhu Muyun said these words, he felt disgusted. After hearing this, Matsumoto had a satisfied smile on his face. Seeing Matsumoto Yunosuke's complacent appearance, Zhu Muyun felt that even if he was disgusted again, it was all worth it.
No matter what others think of him, Zhu Muyun accepts it calmly. Matsumoto Yonosuke's contempt and ridicule, or Duanmuqiang's contempt and ridicule, he wouldn't care. In his position, he has to bear the pressure.
To get benefits and be respected, such a thing is almost non-existent. After entering the Political Security Bureau, Zhu Muyun knew that he would often encounter such situations in the future. In front of the Japanese, he is an obedient slave, and in front of the Chinese, he is a complete traitor.
Fortunately, in the hearts of comrades, Zhu Muyun will be a hero. Even if he is unknown as a hero, he may not be known for the rest of his life, but as long as he has contributed to the War of Resistance and fought for the rise of the Chinese people, Zhu Muyun will not regret it. And, for this goal, he will fight for the rest of his life.
"Zhu Jun, I booked a table in Xuanle Building in the evening, be sure to come." Matsumoto said politely that he suddenly changed his words to "Zhu Jun", indicating that since then, his impression of Zhu Muyun has changed greatly.
"Xuanle Building on Yamato Street?" Zhu Muyun asked quietly, Yamato Street belongs to the original Japanese concession.
Actually, Yamato Street is also deliberately called so by the Japanese, in fact, this is Victory Street. Extending from the French Concession, when it reaches the Japanese Concession, the Japanese will change its name to Yamato Street.
As Gu Xing's spy traitor, Zhu Muyun naturally knew about Xuanle Building. This is a brothel run by Japanese people, and there are many authentic Oriental women in it. Xuanle Building has existed in Guxing for many years, of which only in July 1937 it was closed for more than a year, and in January 1939, after the Japanese army occupied Guxing, it was renovated and continued to operate.
The Xuanle Building is large-scale, and it looks luxurious and comfortable after redecoration. Inside is typical Japanese style, and the women inside, whether Chinese or Japanese, will wear kimonos. Japanese women are originally gentle and considerate, and the women of Xuanle Lou are specially trained, whether they are high-ranking officials or wandering beggars, as long as they get there, they are treated equally.
Of course, it is said that it is so, but it is impossible for a beggar to enter the Xuanle Building. Consumption there was very expensive, and now that the Japanese army occupied Guxing, it has basically become a place for the Japanese. Occasionally, Chinese people go to consume, and they are also Chinese who serve Japan. For example, important officials of the city and provincial governments, as well as Chinese like Zhu Muyun, who are willing to work for Japan.
Actually, Zhu Muyun and Osawa Tani Jiro had also been to Xuanle Building before. It's just that his identity at the time was Tetsuya Kitano. In the Xuanle Building, high-ranking officers of the Japanese army often appeared.
"Yes, as long as people like Zhu Jun know how to appreciate the art of our great Japan." Matsumoto said with a smile.
After this incident, he felt that Zhu Muyun was very important and it was necessary to win him over. Although Zhu Muyun is only greedy for money and does not love sex, Matsumoto Yunosuke believes that as long as Zhu Muyun arrives at Xuanle Building, he will definitely meet the woman he likes.
The women of Genrakulou are all from Sapporo, the "capital of pleasure" in Hokkaido. There, there is a spy school that specializes in training prostitutes, training them to use their special identities to skillfully steal information. After the training of these women, they were sent to Guxing, Beiping, Shanghai, Tianjin, Hangzhou and other places in China, where they entered a high-class brothel run by the Japanese ronin organization: Genyosha.
These prostitutes and spies are extraordinary, and with the unique superior conditions of brothels, as well as their beautiful and charming appearances, as well as their skills in making fun, they lure high-ranking officials, high-ranking military officers, and gang leaders to come here for fun. They are good at reading words and feelings, can accurately determine which types of prostitutes have what information, and skillfully use the "stunts" they learned at the Sapporo spy school to quickly get the information.
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the headquarters of the Genyosha was located in Guxing. All the information will be compiled in the Kosei Genyosha first, and then reported to Tokyo by the headquarters. Matsumoto Konosuke is a member of the Genyosha and a so-called Japanese ronin.
The Japanese ronin, also known as the mainland ronin, the national warrior, the big man, the righteous thief, the Ren Xia, etc., was transformed from the bankrupt samurai. During the Edo period, at the end of feudal society, the rulers divided the Japanese into three categories: samurai, common people, and machiren.
The samurai served the ruling class of Japanese feudal society, but with the decline of Japanese feudal society, two-thirds of the lower samurai quickly went bankrupt, and these bankrupt samurai became ronins.
A large number of ronins were forced by life to seek a way out in China, North Korea, Russia and other countries, which at that time just adapted to the needs of Japan's foreign expansion and aggression. Therefore, behind these ronins, there is actually the shadow of the Japanese government. The current Matsumoto Konosuke is a good example.
After the Japanese army occupied Guxing, he transformed himself and established Huazhong Hydropower Co., Ltd. It's just that Japan is afraid of Britain and has never dared to attack the electric light company. But now, here's the opportunity. The foreign policy of the empire has once again undergone major changes, and if Matsumoto Konosuke annexes the Electric Light Company, he will become one of the richest people in Kose.
"Since it was invited by President Matsumoto, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Zhu Muyun said with a smile.
In the afternoon, Zhu Muyun heard the news that all the people in the intelligence department had returned from Guchang. Zhu Muyun didn't inquire directly, but called Shi Dongliang and asked about the latest progress of "Boss Huang".
"There are quite a few people from the Political Security Bureau, and I can say that I am very supportive of their investigation. However, so far, no one from the military commander has been caught. Shi Dongliang said dissatisfied, he thought that with his full cooperation, the Political Security Bureau could at least chase his gun back.
The big war is imminent, and the New Fourth Army feinted to attack Dwarf Ridge last time, maybe it will really attack next time. Although the Sixth Division, taking advantage of the attack of the second column of the New Fourth Army a few days ago, stressed to the Pacification Office that it had "suffered heavy losses" and urgently needed to replenish weapons and ammunition. However, the supplies from above have not arrived, and the 118th Regiment is still missing one battalion of equipment.
"The military commander is not so easy to grasp, as long as the investigation is clear, it has nothing to do with the Sixth Division." Zhu Muyun comforted.
"Our Sixth Division is a member of the Nanjing government, and it will definitely not have the slightest relationship with Chongqing." Shi Dongliang said firmly.
"I absolutely believe in that." Zhu Muyun also said.
"By the way, although the people in the intelligence department have not caught the military commander. However, they had something else to gain. I heard that an important figure of the underground party was caught. Shi Dongliang suddenly said mysteriously that the Sixth Division was stationed in Guchang, and what happened here could rarely be concealed from him.
"What?!" Zhu Muyun's heart was shocked, the intelligence department went to investigate the matter of the special coupon, why did he run to arrest the underground party? Important figures of the underground party were also caught.
