Chapter 1099: Arrival in Nanjing
Two days later, Tomohito Fujiwara, the president of the Fujiwara Society in Shanghai, led his secretary Yukihito Akagi and a group of guards to board the train to Nanjing.
This time to Nanjing, Ning Zhiheng is preparing to arrange his own intelligence network in Nanjing, although Nanjing is not as prosperous as Shanghai, but the political and military status will gradually increase, Ning Zhiheng is also taking precautions, for the future to make some plans.
On the train platform, the president of Nanjing Fujiwara Club, Kamo Qingzhi, led the senior staff of the club to wait, received Ning Zhiheng and his party, everyone got into the car, and drove all the way to the residence prepared for Ning Zhiheng.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, looking at the scenery outside the window and the flow of people on the street, Ning Zhiheng's mood is extremely complicated, he studied and lived in Nanjing for four years, which is his second hometown, but since the outbreak of the Battle of Songhu, he went to the front line in Shanghai, and has never returned here.
Nowadays, Nanjing has been war-torn for a long time, all industries have declined, and the population has plummeted, which can be seen from the scenery on this street alone.
After a short time, the convoy came to the door of a high-end villa, and a servant had already opened the courtyard gate, and the vehicle drove into the courtyard and stopped.
Kimura Maki opened the car door for Ning Zhiheng, stepped out of the car, and Kamo Keichi on the side hurriedly introduced Ning Zhiheng: "This is a residence we specially selected for you, located in the central area of Nanjing, surrounded by high-end residences, most of which are residences of senior officials of the military and the new government, and the environment and security are the best." ”
Ning Zhiheng looked up, this residence is a high-end villa with a fusion of Chinese and Western styles, although it is only a two-story building, it covers a large area, simple and symmetrical, highlighting calmness, tower-shaped sloping roof and pillar decoration, which looks extremely solemn and magnificent.
He turned around and looked at the lawn and courtyard behind him, nodded slightly, and said to Kamo Qingzhi: "I am very satisfied with this residence, Kamo-kun, hard work!" ”
Hearing this, Kamoqing hurriedly bowed down and replied: "As long as you are satisfied, we have just renovated before, and the furniture and furniture inside are the latest customized, please come in!" ”
Kamo Keichi is one of the first Japanese employees recruited by Fujiwara Society, and has always been steady and careful, shrewd and capable, and is very valued by Hirao Dazhi, and later after the opening of the Beijing-Shanghai Railway, the headquarters decided to open a branch in Nanjing, and Hirao Dazhi recommended this person to Ning Zhiheng, and for more than a year, the work performance is also excellent, and there has never been a mistake.
Ning Zhiheng under his guidance, entered the door of the villa, the eyes suddenly opened, and the appearance of the whole villa, the whole building is to give people a sense of high style, the porch living room stretches north and south, the dining room is connected to the east and west, all around are floor-to-ceiling windows to view the view, the hall is extremely bright, as far as the eye can see, all the furnishings and furniture are simple and atmospheric, and the layout is new.
Yi Huaan and Kimura Maki immediately began to sort out personnel, arrange security, assign work, and handle chores in an orderly manner.
Ning Zhiheng went up the stairs and went directly to the second floor, where there was his bedroom and study, and he began to conduct a careful search as usual, which was his habit of cleaning up thoroughly every time he arrived at a new residence.
For the other rooms, Yi Huaan and Kimura Maki will also take someone to clean up, and soon all the rooms in the house will be checked.
At this time, it was getting late, and at this time, Junpei Uehara's liaison officer, Tetsu Araki, came to the door to ask for a meeting.
"Mr. Fujiwara, the general heard that you have arrived in Nanjing, please come to the palace for a while."
Ning Zhiheng looked at Araki Tetsu in some surprise, and said with a smile: "I didn't inform my uncle before I came, how did he know that I arrived today?" ”
Tetsu Araki smiled slightly, pointed to the east side, and explained: "The general's mansion is not far from your residence, and when I was passing by just now, I saw that there were people in this villa, so let me come and take a look, if you arrive, please come over!" ”
Ning Zhiheng suddenly realized, just now Kamo Qingzhi introduced that the people living near here are all high-ranking military officials and politicians of the puppet government, and it seems that Junpei Uehara also lives here, and it is convenient to come and go.
Since Junpei Uehara was summoned, Ning Zhiheng did not delay any longer, he simply packed up, changed into a kimono, carried gifts, and rushed to Junpei Uehara's mansion.
Junpei Uehara hurriedly came out to greet him when he heard the news, the uncle and nephew had not seen each other for a long time, so they were naturally very cordial, and let Ning Zhiheng into the mansion, and the two of them knelt on the tatami mats in the private room.
Ning Zhiheng took a wooden box from the side and gently pushed it in front of Junpei Uehara.
Junpei Uehara knew that Ning Zhiheng had always been thoughtful, and every time they met, they would give themselves valuables, and this time was naturally no exception.
He smiled and said, "Last time in Wuhan, you gave me a completed book, what good things did you prepare this time?" ”
He and Ning Zhiheng have a close relationship, their interests are linked, and they have the status of uncles and nephews, so they don't need to be polite to each other at all.
Ning Zhiheng's expression was slightly meaningful, and he said: "You can open it and take a look, this time it is a rare good thing." ”
Junpei Uehara was also interested when he heard this, he reached out and took the wooden box, opened it gently, and saw that there were five pairs of books neatly placed inside, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
His favorite thing in his life is literature, and the most proud is calligraphy, but his literary level is average, but his calligraphy level is really outstanding, even Kuroki Yue and other scholars are quite agreeable.
So Ning Zhiheng grasped his two preferences and deliberately selected a suitable gift for him, not afraid that he would be dissatisfied.
Junpei Uehara took out a pair of book stickers from it, slowly unfolded it, and only looked at it slightly, and suddenly felt ecstatic in his heart, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Is this Dong Qichang's "Five Classics"? ”
I saw that the whole book is all made of small letters, the words are accurate, the pen is meticulous, especially in the processing of the picture is very particular, showing a sense of uprightness, the knot is tight, the chapter layout, the word spacing is slightly denser, on the contrary, the line spacing is much looser, giving people the feeling, the volume is extremely clean and tidy, and the rules are decent.
The Japanese have a rigid personality, and they pay the most attention to rules and details, and they feel particularly deep about such a decent boutique, so most of them like to be upright and heavy, and Uehara Junpei is no exception.
Ning Zhiheng looked at Junpei Uehara's unconcealable gaze, knew the joy in his heart, nodded and said: "Uncle has good eyesight, these five volumes of calligraphy are specially prepared for you, I believe you will be satisfied!" ”
"Satisfied! Very satisfied! It's a rarity! Dong Qichang's regular script is hard to find, you look at this book, the whole is done in one go, there is no trace of trembling pen in the middle, the overall view, vigorous and vigorous, the pen is bone-to-eye, there is a high atmosphere of a temple, how do you find such a boutique? ”
Junpei Uehara was overjoyed, his mouth kept admiring, and his eyes were fixed on this pair of books, and he didn't leave it at all.
Ning Zhiheng smiled and said: "This was specially given to me by someone, and it is a fun thing to get it for nothing!" ”
So he roughly told Junpei Uehara about Wan Mulin, of course, in his tone, this was not an important matter, just a small thing to do.
Junpei Uehara didn't care after hearing this, the life and death of a Chinese gang member was really not worth mentioning in the eyes of people like him, he smiled slightly and said, "It's worth it, it's worth it!" This guy and I have a pretty good relationship, I used to serve in the General Staff Headquarters, but this time I came to operate, and I actually got a good errand to form a new government, and now I have the support of all forces, even I am red-eyed! Just borrow his hand to knock some benefits, it's nothing! ”
Speaking of this, he seemed to remember something, put down the book sticker in his hand, and said to Ning Zhiheng: "The time for the new government to return the capital has been set, just five days later, on the thirtieth of this month, the new government of Nanjing will hold a grand ceremony to return the capital, if you are interested, you can go with me to watch." ”
When Ning Zhiheng heard this, he pursed his mouth slightly, his face showed disdain, and he said lightly: "It's just a group of people who are crowned by monkeys, I have never had a good impression of such people, and I don't bother to watch them perform!" ”
Ning Zhiheng's words were very polite, but they made Junpei Uehara quite agree, the Japanese admire the strong and despise the weak, and they don't pay attention to these attachments, Wang Reclamation and the like are just tools they use to invade China, which everyone knows very well, and there is never any obscurity among the Japanese high-level, so Ning Zhiheng's words are not abrupt.
Junpei Uehara nodded Ning Zhiheng slightly with his finger, and said helplessly: "You! I heard that you never dealt with the people of the new government in Shanghai, and united with the local forces to reject them, and Wang Reclamation complained to Ying Zuo many times, saying that they could not even guarantee their office space, which is a bit excessive! ”
Ning Zhiheng hehehe, spread his hands, and defended: "Are they embarrassed to complain? These people together are a farce, as soon as they arrive in Shanghai, they go around robbing houses and official positions, you know, but a down-and-out literati, in front of that Mr. Wang, shouted a few slogans of the peace movement, and became a high-ranking official of the Propaganda Department, which is a joke in Shanghai, which is really funny! I'm ashamed to be in the company of it! ”
Junpei Uehara was also quite amused when he heard Ning Zhiheng's description, he saw that Ning Zhiheng was indeed not interested in participating in the celebration, so he didn't say more, changed the topic and said: "If you are not interested, forget it, how long do you plan to stay in Nanjing this time?" ”
Ning Zhiheng shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, it depends on the situation, to be honest, the foundation here in Nanjing is too poor, far inferior to Shanghai in all aspects, when I came today, I saw that the shops and pedestrians on the street were ruined, the so-called ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, it is really exaggerated, I plan to take a look and then talk about it, just take a distraction, and then go back to Shanghai." ”
