Chapter 38 Chapter Thirty-eight

Xiu'er came out of the gate of Yilang's shop, and saw a carriage parked outside the door, feeling strange, Shengzi poked his head out from the tent and said, "Second Aunt, hurry up and get in the carriage!" Xiu'er agreed and got into the carriage with some doubts. , saw that Wen was still sitting inside, and asked: "Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Na Wen said: "My mother is afraid that you will make a mistake on this day." Xiu'er asked her son, "Is it cold to have a son? Shengzi said: "Why is it not cold? You don't come out all the time. I want to go up, but mother won't let me." Nawen said: "Mother is afraid that you can't stand the heat when you go up." Xiu'er said: "Yes, they turn on the heat It’s hotter than our stove.” Nawen said, “I know, or your face is flushed, like a young hen that just opened.” Xiu’er said guiltily, “Sister-in-law, you just went in? "Nawen said: "Nonsense, if you don't go in, can you know the excitement inside?" Shengzi asked Xiu'er, "Second Aunt, what's the excitement?" Xiuer hugged Shengzi lightly and said, "There's nothing." Wen grabbed the birth son: "Sit by mother, don't bother your second aunt." Xiu'er was a little scared, and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, what do you have to say, let my sisters talk privately when they go home?" Na Wen was cold The face said: "Okay, after dinner, you can wait in the house." Xiu'er's heart fluttered, but she didn't know what to say, she could only hear the carriage driving in the snow curtain, clanging. The sound of the horse bell was extremely harsh.

After dinner, Nawen saw that there was no one else in Xiuer's room, stepped in, lowered his voice, and said straight to the point: "I think you are crazy! You are bewitched! What's wrong with our parents and Chuanwu?" Confession?" Xiu'er said, "Explain what?" The text said, "What else should I explain? Tell me about the good things you and Ichiro did." Xiu'er retorted, "I have nothing to do with Ichiro!" The text said: " Damn! You stretched your neck, but my sister-in-law kept holding her throat and whispering to you. Well, you are not afraid that your family will know, so let's open the door." Xiu'er said angrily: "Open it, open it. "

Suddenly someone knocked on the door outside, and Nawen said in a low voice: "Okay, Dashibao! You go and open the door, open it." Xiu'er fell silent, and Nawen said: "My sister-in-law persuaded you for your own good, as long as you change Now, my sister-in-law's mouth is sealed, and I can't tell this matter until I die!" The jade book outside the door said: "Second sister-in-law, are you in the house?" Xiu'er opens the door to let Yushu in.Seeing that the expressions on the faces of the two were not right, Yu Shu said, "You two sisters-in-law, what's the matter?" Na Wen wanted to divert the conversation, "Yu Shu, what's the matter with you? Yushu nodded, and said to Xiuer: "Second sister-in-law, didn't you ask me for the lyrics that day?" Nawen asked, "What lyrics?" It’s good to have a song.” Yushu said, “I copied it.”

Na Wen went to lock the door again.Yushu became more suspicious, and said, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter with you?" Nawen looked at Xiu'er and said, "Xiu'er, can you talk to Yushu?" Xiu'er turned to Yushu and said in frustration: "My sister-in-law met me." Yushu hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law, are you alone?" Nawen said, "What, shameful thing, why do you want to act on the street?" Yushu He said earnestly: "Sister-in-law, let's hide this matter for Xiu'er!" Nawen said with a groan, "What? Hide it! I dare say they have something to do, you know it, don't you?" Yu Shu said: "You're right, sister-in-law, when Ichiro comes twice, they'll be on the hook, and there will be a break in the middle." Nawen said, "Yushu, Xiu'er is crazy, are you crazy too! Let’s not talk about how to explain to Chuanwu and our father and mother; as a woman, as a married woman, can I do such a thing?” Yu Shu said: “Sister-in-law, the reason is very simple, Chuanwu doesn’t like to show off. Er, why can’t Xiu’er love others?” Na Wen said, “I’m not going to tell you whether I love you or not. Xiu’er, listen carefully, a woman’s family has done this kind of thing, spread the word, and the neighbors Your saliva can drown you! Even if you put on ten layers of armor, the fingers of the world can pierce it through!" Xiu'er raised her face and said, "One death is enough!" Yu Shu Said: "It's better than no love." The text said: "Yushu, who can speak lightly, why don't you go learn from Chuanjie behind Chuanjie's back?" Yushu said: "Chuanjie loves me, and I love you too." I love Chuanjie." Na Wen said: "Okay, I won't argue with you, you two wear a pair of pants! I also took your Xiuer's words, do you think that if you die, you will be over once and for all--after going to hell, you will have to wait three years. Daoguan: After three years of grinding, climbing five mountains of knives, and finally sawing you in half, throwing you into the frying pan, this is not over, there is the next life, do you know what you can entrust in the next life..." Yushu interrupted her: "Okay, sister-in-law, don't talk about these invisible things! These are all nonsense made up by oppressing women in the feudal society." Na Wen said: "What nonsense? Let me tell you, in the palace At that time, which one of those women who stole sex will end well?" Yushu said: "Sister-in-law, don't talk about the palace, is it okay? Let's talk about the second sister-in-law of Siweilou now." Nawen said: "Okay, Tell me, if you don't believe me, you can come up with a brilliant truth that convinces my sister-in-law!"

Yushu turned around and opened Xiu'er's wardrobe, and found a pillow.Nawen looked up and asked, "What's going on?" Yushu said, "Do you know how the second sister-in-law spent her nights all these years?" Nawen said, "Sleep!" Yushu said: "Sleep with whom?" Nawen said, "Sleep with her!" Yushu said, "Sister-in-law, you are wrong, she slept with this pillow!" Nawen said, "Who doesn't sleep with a pillow." Yushu said Shu shook his head, and said sadly: "Second sister-in-law wrapped this pillow in a Chuanwu shirt and slept with her arms around her!" , suddenly hugged Xiu'er and said: "Sister, my sister, you have suffered a lot, and I actually know..." Xiu'er persuaded Nawen, "Sister-in-law, please keep your voice down." Yu Shu I couldn't help but wipe my tears.

Nawen had cried enough, raised his head and said, "No, I have to go to my mother, and show Xiu'er this bad breath!" Yushu said, "What does this have to do with our mother? We have to find Chuan Wu, and find Xiu'er's husband." " Xiu'er wiped away her tears, and said calmly, "I've made up my mind, I'll talk to Chuanwu by myself." Na Wen said, "Your mouth can do it? If you want to find it, you have to go with your sister-in-law, you can't ask That live donkey will bully you again." Yushu said: "Xiu'er, I will go too." Nawen said: "Yes, women will handle our women's affairs!"

Chuan Wu entered the house and took a seat, it was a small single room in Siwei Building, there were four seats in total, Na Wen, Xiu Er and Yu Shu also sat down.After a while, the wine and dishes were on the table. Na Wen poured wine for Chuanwu, then for Xiu'er, Yushu and himself, and said, "Second brother, today, my three sisters invited you out, and I want to say something. Something." Chuanwu smiled and asked Xiu'er: "Xiu'er, can you tell me something first?" But Xiu'er said with a straight face: "Tell my sister-in-law!" Yu Shu said: "Second brother, if sister-in-law is not Before I open my mouth, let me add a word, whether you agree or disagree with what we said today, it must be gentle and gentle, and you are not allowed to be violent." Chuan Wu still nodded with a smile, and said, "OK."

Nawen said: "Since you have such an attitude, I, the sister-in-law, will just say it straight. Second child, Xiu'er proposed to separate from you." Yushu said: "That is to divorce you." Chuan Wuben They thought that their sisters-in-law asked him to come out to ask about Xianer, but they never thought it was about this matter. They were stunned and said, "Why?" Na Wen said, "Second, let me ask you, have you been in pain for so many years?" Xiuer?" Yushu said, "Second brother, tell me from your heart, have you ever loved Xiuer?" Chuanwu looked at Xiuer, lowered his head and said, "No, but why did you suddenly bring up this matter today? Yushu said, "Second sister-in-law already has someone she loves." Nawen said, "It's a good match." Chuanwu looked at Xiu'er and said, "Who is it? Xiu'er, can you tell me who he is?" Xiu'er raised her head and said in a low voice, "Ichiro." Chuanwu was a little unconvinced, and asked, "Really?" Xiu'er said, "The second time he comes to our house, I'll get on good terms with him."

Chuanwu stopped talking, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, poured another glass, stared blankly at the dishes on the table, wondering what he was thinking, his eyebrows furrowed into knots.After reading the article, he was a little flustered, and said: "Second brother, let's make an agreement, don't play your temper today." Yushu also said a little scared: "Second brother, you promised me just now." Xiu'er said in a tone He was quite firm, and said: "Chuan Wu, you must be angry when you encounter this kind of thing, if you want to vent it, you can vent it to me, anyway, this is the end of life." After finishing speaking, tears were streaming down.

Chuanwu smiled wryly and said, "What are you talking about? Ichiro has such a property, and he has a good temper. You and Ichiro can live a stable and happy life together. Come, let me congratulate you." He held up his wine glass stand up.Xiu'er couldn't believe it was true, she stared straight at Chuanwu.Nawen said: "Xiu'er, I agreed." Yu Shu said: "Second sister-in-law, raise your glass." Xiu'er was relieved, raised her glass and said, "Chuan Wu, I'm sorry for you." Chuan Wu After drinking the wine, he said, "What are you talking about? Xiu'er, I should be the one who said that. I shouldn't have neglected you for so many years!" The two clinked glasses and drank the wine. Chuanwu sat down and stopped talking. Crying all over the table.

Nawen said: "Xiuer, don't cry." Yushu said: "You should be happy!" Xiuer looked up at Chuanwu and said, "I'm leaving, what do you do?" Yushu said "Didn't he still have Xian'er?" Na Wen said: "Didn't our father and mother agree to them?" Chuanwu nodded and said: "Sister-in-law, I will talk to my parents about Xiu'er in a while. If there is something that can't be turned around, you and Yushu can help, don't make things difficult for Xiu'er." The old couple had already lay down.Zhu Kaishan tossed and turned, sighing.Wen Ta Niang asked: "Father, which one of our three sons and the third daughter-in-law is your favorite?" Zhu Kaishan said sullenly, "It's all the same." The second child is your sweetheart!" Zhu Kaishan said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Wen Taniang said, "Who doesn't have eyes? You haven't had a good time since you found out about Xiu'er and Ichiro. face." Zhu Kaishan said: "Didn't I agree too!" Wen Ta Niang said: "I should also agree, Xiu'er has kept the second child in the cold for so many years, besides, isn't the second child still fresh?" Zhu Kaishan Said: "But, where is Xian'er now? When can I come with my second child?" His mother Wen was speechless, and said for a long time: "Xiu'er and Ichiro are also destined, she was the one who sent Ichiro to him at the beginning. Isn’t it from our family? How can Ichiro be considered our son.” Zhu Kaishan only hummed, and then fell silent.Wen Taniang persuaded: "Actually, it's not easy for Ichiro." She smiled wryly, and then said, "Little Japan is also good for little Japan. Ichiro is willing to marry Xiu'er tomorrow, and he invited so many people. I don't care about it at all. Which Chinese man can do this kind of heart?" Zhu Kaishan said: "Okay, don't mutter, you have to get up early tomorrow morning." Wen Ta Niang sighed and turned off the light.The silent Siweilou was submerged in the deep night.The cold moonlight filtered through the shadows of the trees onto the window, and the happy characters pasted on Xiu'er's window lattice reflected a faint silver glow. In the summer of 1931, there seemed to be a lot of rain in Harbin.It was another afternoon when a storm was approaching, and large chunks of dark clouds were rushing over the city's iconic building, the Sophia Cathedral. In Morita's mansion, the lights were turned on early in the house, and Morita was sitting by the window.Ozaki came in, bowed and said, "Teacher, the student has some news for you." Morita said, "I like to hear good news." Ozaki said, "It can be said that this is good news, Nakamura, do you remember?" Morita asked: "Which Nakamura?" Ozaki said: "Your student, Nakamura Shintaro." Morita said: "Oh, a young man with achievements, I heard that he works in the Imperial Army Staff Headquarters?" Ozaki said: "Yes Yes, I’m a senior officer just like me, but Nakamura-kun had an accident a few days ago.” Morita asked, “What’s the matter?” Ozaki said, “On June 26, Nakamura-kun brought a few people into Suolun Mountain in Xing’an Mountains in disguise. They were reconnaissance in the area and were arrested by the Northeast Army, and military maps and investigation notes were found on them." Morita said: "How dare the Northeast Army do anything to them?" Ozaki said: "This time, to your surprise, the Northeast Army shot Nakamura Shintaro and the others in secret without reporting to Fengtian." Morita slapped the table , stood up and said: "Bold, do they still have the Great Japanese Empire in their eyes? Ozaki, is it good news that Nakamura-kun died?" Ozaki said: "Teacher, the Army Staff Headquarters believes that Nakamura-kun's martyrdom is the solution to Manchuria. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Chinese issue.” Morita’s eyes lit up and he said, “Is it finally going to be done?” Ozaki said, “Yes. Make the Nakamura incident bigger and let the whole world know that China discriminates against Japan and wants to fight against Japan. The enemy." Morita asked: "When will we do it?" Ozaki said: "According to reliable sources, it will not exceed the second half of this year." Morita said: "Great, I can finally see this day! Ozaki, we are still alive People should remember the day when Shintaro Nakamura died for his country." Ozaki said: "Yes, teacher." Morita left the table, took a few steps around the room excitedly, and said to Shi Chuan who had been listening, "Ishi Chuan-kun, the golden opportunity bestowed on us by the empire has arrived!" Shi Chuan said, "President, do you mean that the time has come to attack Shanhe Coal Mine?" Morita said: "Exactly. Cut off the sales of Shanhe Coal Mine as soon as possible." Ishikawa asked: "President, can this be done? They have so many customers." Do customers still dare to buy coal?" Ishikawa said: "Zhang Xueliang won't intervene, right?" Morita smiled and asked Ozaki: "At this time, does that brat have the courage?" Ozaki said : "It is reported that the Nanjing government has clearly instructed Zhang Xueliang not to cause trouble again." Morita said: "Hehe, the world is working together, even their Nanjing government has come to help us!" The three laughed loudly . Torrential rain enveloped the Shanhe Coal Mine, and the rain seemed to be hitting the windows of the offices.Several managers looked at the rain, bored.Zhu Kaishan asked Shaojing: "How many trips have you sent out coal today?" Shaojing said: "Two trips." Zhu Kaishan said: "What about tomorrow?" Shaojing said: "So far, I can't send out even one trip. The railway freight rate has been raised too high, it’s outrageous! Those who ordered the goods would rather pay the deposit and return the goods, and those who did not order would dare not come to the door." Zhu Kaishan shook his head and said: "Or the shareholders will be mad. " Chuanjie came in from the outer hall, drooping his head and sighing.Zhu Kaishan asked: "I heard General Manager Liu is arguing outside, is he going to withdraw his shares again?" Chuanjie nodded.Zhu Kaishan said: "How many shareholders are already withdrawn?" Shao Jing said: "Including this treasurer Liu, there are more than a dozen." Chuanjie said: "Father, Shanhe Mine has less than fifty shareholders in total. !” Shao Jing said, “Fortunately, Ichiro hasn’t proposed withdrawing shares yet, he is our largest shareholder.” Zhu Kaishan said, “How much shares does Ichiro own?” Chuanjie said, “About 30 percent.” Zhu Kaishan said Kaishan asked Shaojing, "How do you know that Ichiro won't withdraw his shares?" Shaojing said, "Isn't he your godson?" Zhu Kaishan shook his head and said, "Don't forget, he is even more Japanese." Jie said: "Father, Ichiro doesn't seem to be able to withdraw shares. Yesterday he said that he would talk to a friend with Mantec to lower the freight rate." Zhu Kaishan said: "How capable Ichiro is, he can really influence Mantec something?" Several people stopped talking.Zhu Kaishan thought for a while, and said: "For those who have already proposed to withdraw their shares, I don't think we should hold a meeting of the board of directors to discuss." Shao Jing said: "General Manager, this is probably inappropriate? Shareholders want to withdraw their shares." It's their freedom and their rights." Zhu Kaishan said: "Right now, I can't take care of these things. Now the meeting of the board of directors can only have one result, and that is to allow them to withdraw their shares. In this way, I don't know how many people will want to Withdrawal, Shanhe Mine will suffer a complete defeat if it goes down! Doesn’t this fall into the poisonous plan of the Japanese to stab Shanhe Mine to death with the knife of raising railway freight rates?” Chuanjie said: “I’m afraid this is not a long-term solution. What if the Manchurian Railway just refuses to lower the freight rate?" Zhu Kaishan said, "I have already greeted your second brother and asked him if he can find a young marshal to find a way. The young marshal is the chairman of the Northeast Political Affairs Committee. The biggest official in Northeast China, can he watch the Japanese oppress Shanhe Coal Mine?" Ichiro stood in front of Morita and said respectfully: "Senior, can you negotiate with Manchurian Railway to lower the freight rate of Shanhe Mine Railway. Even if it is only a little lower, Shanhe Mine will not have so many shareholders who want to withdraw stock." Morita said: "I greeted Mantie." Ichiro asked anxiously: "Did they agree?" Morita took a puff from his pipe and let out a long puff of smoke.Ishikawa said: "There is nothing the Manchurian side can do. The increase in freight rates is an order of the imperial government." Ichiro said: "The Shanhe mine alarmed the imperial government?" Ishikawa said: "Do you think it is strange? Can the imperial government not pay attention to the largest coal mine?" Ichiro said hopelessly: "Then, the Shanhe Mine has to go bankrupt? Old man, you have invested a huge amount of money!" Morita shook his head and said, "No, that's not what I meant." Ichiro asked inexplicably, "Then what do you mean?" Ishikawa took the words and said, "It is to make Shanhe Coal Mine more powerful." Morita said, "It's not that someone wants to Withdraw the shares? You buy them all.” Ichiro said: “Buy them?” Morita nodded and said: “Yes, I will pay, you will come forward, and eventually you will become the controlling shareholder of Shanhe Coal Mine.” Ichiro said: “You You mean, you want to turn Shanhe Coal Mine into Morita Products?" Morita shook his head again and said, "It's not mine, it belongs to the Empire of Japan." Ichiro said anxiously, "Old man, no, I can't rob Zhu's property " Morita said: "Really?" He took off the pipe from the corner of his mouth and knocked it on the ashtray.Ichiro was inexplicably nervous. Ishikawa said: "Ichiro, please promise the president!" Ichiro pleaded: "Old man, you know, I am the son of the Zhu family, they saved my life!" Ishikawa said: "Ichiro, you should understand , We Japanese are the descendants of the supreme God Amaterasu, and the people of the incomparably wise Emperor, what are the Chinese?" Morita said: "Little fellow, Shanhe Coal Mine is not owned by Zhu Kaishan alone, and besides, I never Hurt Zhu Kaishan." He leaned over, squinted his eyes, and stared at Ichiro.Ichiro couldn't help but took two steps back, and said, "Let me think again, okay?" Morita filled a pipe with shredded tobacco and lit it, took a puff and said, "Okay. Don't forget, little fellow, the Japanese are gods." nation." The Zhu family gathered around to eat, and they couldn't cheer up.Nawen asked Chuanjie: "I heard from people on the street that there are 20 or 30 shareholders who want to withdraw their shares. Is it true?" One." Yushu said: "There are some people who like to make waves, small market swindlers!" Zhu Kaishan drank a cup of wine with a sullen face, and sent a message to pour it again, Zhu Kaishan said: "Don't drink it. This Why hasn’t the second child been seen yet?” Wen’s mother said, “His father, it’s no longer necessary to get angry, the big deal is that Shanhe Mine will quit, don’t we still have Siweilou?” Chuanwen said in a long voice : "How can there be Siweilou anymore, Shanhe Mine is disbanded, and Siweilou can't be used to pay off the debts of other shareholders' shareholders?" The text said: "If you can't speak, don't speak." Huh! If Shanhe Mine is a yellow stall, can the shareholders spare our Siweilou?" Wen Ta Niang said: "Boss, the skin is so dirty, what are you talking about it for! Let's eat." Just as he was talking, Chuanwu ran in with his shirt open, sweating profusely.Wen Taniang said: "The whole family is waiting for you." Chuanjie asked: "Second brother, did you talk to Fengtian?" Chuanwu said: "I just finished talking to the young marshal on the phone." Chuanjie said: " What do you mean by Young Marshal?" Chuanwu said, "Can you pour me a glass of wine?" His wife Wen said, "You look bad, and the score is not too small, so I'll pour it for you." That Wen quickly got up and poured it for Chuanwu. When serving wine, Chuan Wu raised his glass, smiled and said to his father, "Dad, take a sip." Zhu Kaishan said, "Don't play tricks with Dad, let's talk about the matter first." Seriously said: "Young Marshal said that it is unreasonable for Manchurian Railway to raise freight rates casually. Let you rest assured that he will ask the relevant people to coordinate with Manchurian Railway. It is estimated that nothing will happen." Zhu Kaishan said: "Young Marshal really Did you say that?" Chuanwu said, "Father, when have I ever lied?" Chuanjie said happily, "Second brother, thank you, and thank you, Young Commander." Chuanwen also stood up quickly, smiling He poured wine for Zhu Kaishan, Chuanjie, and Chuanwu and said, "Drink some, Shanhe Mine is safe now, it's a good thing!" After eating, Chuan Wu said: "Father, I explained the essentials of wrestling to my soldiers, but I forgot the formula you taught me, so you can tell me again." After thinking about it, Zhu Kaishan went out with him.Chuan Wu said: "Father, I didn't tell you the truth just now. I'm afraid that if I told the truth, my family members would panic, and the young commander is not good at interfering with the Shanhe Mine." Zhu Kaishan said: "Is it so evil?" Chuan Wu Said: "Right now, the Japanese and the Northeast Army are competing with each other!" Zhu Kaishan asked: "What happened?" Chuan Wu said: "At the end of June, the Northeast Army in Suolun Mountain in Xing'an Mountains captured several Kwantung Army soldiers. The spies who took the lead were Nakamura Shintaro, and the brothers killed them." Zhu Kaishan said: "They should be killed!" Chuanwu said: "But the Kwantung Army refused to let it go, calling this incident the 'Nakamura Incident' and demanding Punish the brothers who killed their spies. The little devils are also rioting in the country, saying that this is hostility to the Japanese, and that they deliberately sent a letter of war to the Japanese." Zhu Kaishan scolded: "You son of a bitch! What's the idea of ​​the young commander?" Biography Wu said: "Young Marshal is very tough. We are irresponsible for saying that you Japanese were killed for spying on the military in China." The government got scared and ordered the arrest and punishment of the brothers who killed the Japanese spies." Zhu Kaishan said, "Isn't this a bastard government?" Chuanwu said, "That's it, the little devils don't stop, their two divisions in North Korea have already It is closer to the Tumen River, and it is said that the headquarters of the Kwantung Army will also move from Dalian to Fengtian." Zhu Kaishan said: "Isn't this going to start a war?" Chuanwu said: "Yes, how can the young commander intervene in the affairs of Mantie and Shanhe Mine at this time!" Zhu Kaishan said: "So, Shanhe Mine is only Is there a dead end?" Chuan Wu said: "Not necessarily, the young commander reminded me on the phone." Zhu Kaishan said: "What did the young commander say?" Chuan Wu said: "The young commander has also dealt with it over the years. Some little devils annexed Chinese mines. The young commander said that the little devils have a good method, which is to create trouble first, and then input funds to the Chinese mines. Once the time is right, they will take them down in one fell swoop. The young commander asked, what is the Shanhe Mine? There is no problem in this regard, if there is, be careful! He said that Shanhe Mine can only hold on for now, and when the 'Nakamura incident' is over, he will try to deal with Shanhe Mine and Manchurian Railway." While listening, Zhu Kaishan felt his eyes suddenly brighten up, and said: "The young commander reminded you well! The little devil did the same thing to Shanhe Mine!" He thought for a while and said, "Second brother, go back, daddy knows it well. It’s over.” Chuanwu said, “Father, don’t worry too much, your bones are capital. As long as the Northeast is still in the hands of the Chinese, the Shanhe Mine will be easy to handle.” Zhu Kaishan said, “Don’t worry! Chuanjie discusses to go." Ichiro panicked and led Xiu'er out of the car at the gate of Harbin Station, looking around as he walked.Xiuer asked: "What happened? I was in a hurry to start the fire." Ichiro said, "I'll talk to you when I get in the car." Xiuer said, "You didn't even say hello to your family." Ichiro said: "Go to Tianjin Hang up the phone again." The two of them crossed the road to buy tickets at the ticket office, when suddenly a truck rushed over from behind them, Xiu'er threw herself on the ground, Ichiro rolled a few times, tried to stand up and fell down again. When he woke up again, he found himself lying on the hospital bed, with Morita and Ishikawa standing aside.Ichiro got up and asked, "Where's my wife?" Ishikawa said, "She's in the next ward, and just received an injection. The doctor has checked her, and she's fine." Ichiro looked at the two of them and bowed.Morita narrowed his eyes and said, "You don't need to buy the shares of Shanhe Mine, but you shouldn't run away. If Ishikawa was not at the train station, you and your wife might really be dead." Ichiro said tearfully, "Why? Why? Is it me?" Morita said: "Don't complain, this is your glory, this is the glory bestowed on you by the empire!" Ichiro cried and said: "But, tell me to buy the shares of Shanhe Mine, I am sorry for the Zhu family! Morita said: "Aren't you afraid that you will be sorry to Amaterasu and His Majesty the Emperor?" .” Ichiro said in a daze, “This, is this possible?” Morita said: "The Japanese are a nation of gods, don't you even doubt this?" Ishikawa said: "The empire today is like the sun that just rises in the morning, shining brilliantly, while in China, bandits are everywhere, warlords fight in chaos, The countryside is not like the countryside, and the city is not like the city. A chaotic and dirty country! Why? God abandoned them, they only have poverty, ruin, suffering, suffering. Do you understand?" Ichiro said: "It seems so." Morita said : "Little fellow, I, Morita, am a loving and righteous person. If you have revenge, you must repay it, and if you have kindness, you will be repaid. The Zhu family is your benefactor. I will never treat them badly. If Zhu Kaishan is willing, he can continue to stay in the mine. Now, if he doesn't want to work hard, he can sit at home and take the bonus and enjoy the happiness quietly. Little fellow, do I feel sorry for the Zhu family by doing this?" Ichiro nodded and said, "Senior, Ichiro was confused in the past." Morita smiled kindly and said, "I can't blame you. Those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. You have been among the Chinese people for so many years. It would be strange if you were not confused!" Ichiro said: "Please give me some pointers." Morita said: "Little fellow, come forward, let me see your eyes now." Ichiro approached respectfully Said: "Senior, do I look like a descendant of Amaterasu?" Morita squinted his eyes carefully, nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's not just a resemblance, you are a descendant of Amaterasu!" Ichiro bowed again He bowed and said, "It's all the teachings of the seniors! Tonight, Ichiro will never forget it." Morita turned to Ishikawa and said, "Tomorrow, I will transfer another sum of money to Ichiro's Dongsheng Trading Co., Ltd. for Ichiro to purchase the shares of Shanhe Mine. Also," he turned to Ichiro again, "in order to avoid trouble in the process of purchasing shares, you I am a citizen of the Republic of China." Ichiro said: "But, I have never joined!" Morita said: "Ishikawa has already prepared all the documents for you, remember: from the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1926 , you became a Chinese citizen in Tianjin." Ichiro nodded and said, "Old man, I remember." Zhu Kaishan and Chuanjie were sitting and talking.Chuanjie said: "Father, could Ichiro come in from the Japanese?" Zhu Kaishan said: "Don't you think it's strange? The train skin is a matter of Manchuria's decision. Ichiro is a small businessman. It was done as soon as it was launched? Shanhe Mine needs to buy new equipment, how did Ichiro spend so much money all of a sudden, does he have the financial resources? Also, if Ichiro really has a reliable friend in the Manchurian Railway, how can he improve the railway transportation this time? He can't do the price thing?" Chuanjie said: "Isn't Ichiro running this matter?" Zhu Kaishan said: "Don't worry! He can't escape. I'm afraid he's going to act in a new play." Chuanjie said: "You mean he withdrew? shares?" Zhu Kaishan said: "It's okay to withdraw the shares! What I'm afraid of is that he will buy those returned shares! Once the shares in his hand exceed 50%, that is, 50%, the Shanhe Mine will be re-owned. It's not ours anymore." Chuanjie said: "Father, is it really so serious?" Zhu Kaishan said: "San'er, it's time, you should stare." Chuanjie said: "Father, what do you think we should do? ?” Zhu Kaishan said: “The first one, we must find out where Ichiro got so much money. If the money is not his, and he doesn’t withdraw his shares, we have to clear it out for him! He will never even think about buying shares.” Chuanjie said: "What if those funds are really Ichiro's own?" Zhu Kaishan said: "Just trust your father, that's impossible." Chuanjie said: "Then how to check?" Zhu Kaishan said: " I thought about it, ask your elder brother to handle this matter, okay?" Chuanjie said: "Okay, let my sister-in-law take care of the restaurant first!" Zhu Kaishan said: "It's not too late. I'll tell your eldest brother to leave for Tianjin tomorrow. No matter what method you use, even if you spend two dollars for the manager, you have to find out where Ichiro's money came from." Jie said: "I think it works, otherwise, Ichiro will always be a mystery. Dad, you have to tell my elder brother that no one can tell about the investigation of Ichiro." Zhu Kaishan said: "Yes, even your mother I can’t tell the truth, so I just said that something happened in my hometown and asked Chuanwen to go back.” Ichiro came to Morita Mansion with a gift to express his gratitude.Morita asked him: "I heard that the eldest son of Zhu Kaishan's family has left Harbin?" Ichiro said: "Yes, I heard that he has returned to his hometown and repaired the cemetery." Morita laughed sinisterly, and asked back: " Do you believe it?" Ishikawa said at the same time: "Maybe something really happened to Zhu Kaishan's hometown." Morita said: "It's better not to be too simple at this moment, Zhu Kaishan is probably suspicious." Ichiro said: "Suspicious ?” Morita said: “Yes, I suspect your source of funds.” Ichiro said: “Senior, you mean my eldest brother, no, the boss of the Zhu family went to Tianjin to check the accounts of my business company?” Morita nodded and said: “ I have to think this way, Shi Chuan, go to Tianjin immediately to let go of our people, keep an eye on Dongsheng Trading Company, look for the boss of the Zhu family, and block him." Ishikawa said: "What should we do after blocking it? Kill it?" Ichiro hurriedly said: "Don't kill, the boss of the Zhu family is quite honest." Morita said: "As far as I know, he likes money and power." Ichiro Surprised: "Senior, how do you know?" Ishikawa said: "The president has his own way." Morita thought about it and said: "Maybe the boss of the Zhu family is still available." Ichiro said: "Just be more courageous. Morita said: "This is better. Ishikawa understands what I mean?" Ishikawa nodded and said, "Understood." Morita said: "Then do it quickly." Chuanwen went to live in Tianjin, wandered around Dongsheng Trading Company a few times, and saw that Mr. Chen was in charge.This Mr. Chen is over fifty, with a thin face and capable deeds.On this day, Chuanwen invited Mr. Chen out on the grounds of discussing business. After drinking for three rounds, both of them were already a little drunk.The text said: "Mr. Chen, let's have another cup. The first time is fresh, the second time is acquainted, the third time and the fourth time we are friends." Mr. Chen said: "Brother, you invited me to drink so much wine, not just for business matters. What else is there?" Chuanwen said with a smile: "I forgot to ask you last time, and you are also from Shandong, which county is your hometown?" Mr. Chen said: "Zibo, Chenjiazhuang." Chuanwen said: "I My hometown is in Mingshui, and Zibo is only a hundred miles away, and we are fellow villagers! Come, let’s have another cup for the fellow villagers.” The two drank a cup.The text said: "I heard that Gui Yilang, your big shopkeeper, is also from Shandong?" Mr. Chen said: "He is not from Shandong, Japanese, devil! My brother, tell me what you want! I will do my best to help you or not. To the fellowship." Chuanwen pondered for a while, looked around, took out something from his bosom and stuffed it into Mr. Chen's hands quietly.Mr. Chen opened his hand and looked, and his eyes lit up—it was a gold bar. He couldn't help shaking his hand and said, "brother, what are you doing?" The text said: "Mr. Chen, this is just a deposit. After that, there are three more." Mr. Chen said: "My brother, if you don't tell the truth, I dare not even take this." The text said: "To be honest, my family runs a coal mine, the Shanhe Coal Mine in Harbin You know? That belongs to my family. Your big shopkeeper invested money in my mine, and the amount of money is frightening. My old man is afraid that it is not the money of your Dongsheng Trading Company." Mr. Chen said in a low voice: "The day before yesterday I have another 900,000 yuan here." Chuanwen said: "Where did you get the money from?" Mr. Chen said: "Morita Bussan said that this money will also be sent to your Shanhe Coal Mine. It has already been sent to Shanhe Coal Mine. You Shanhe Coal Mine has made two payments." Chuanwen said: "Is it all money from Morita Products?" Mr. Chen nodded and said, "How can my Dongsheng Trading Company have so much money?" Chuanwen said: "Brother, can you Can you give me a copy of the original receipts of these accounts?" Mr. Chen said: "Brother, it's not that I don't help, it's not easy to do this! I'm a clerk in the accounting office, so it's not easy to see these accounts Don’t talk about freeing up your hands to copy.” 传文又掏出一根金条，塞他手里说：“老哥，知道你不容易，再加一根。明天抄不来，那就后天，后天抄不来，就大后天，只要能抄来就行！”陈先生揣好金条说：“你这么大的情义，老哥只好尽力了。” 文他娘在床上翻捡着几件旧衣服，那文风风火火地进来说：“娘，四味楼翻天了！”文他娘说：“翻什么天，不就是矿上的人在议论事吗？”那文说：“哪呀，是股东们吵闹着要撤股份呢！”文他娘放下手里的活儿说：“这可是大事，你爹什么意思？”那文说：“他能答应吗？正僵着呢！”文他娘起身说：“那咱可得去看看。”她下炕穿上鞋。那文问：“娘，你翻出这些旧衣服干什么？”文他娘说：“秀儿都有四五个月身孕了，我寻思给她做点月子里用的东西吧！” 一屋子的人，有站的，有坐的，正围着朱开山、传杰、绍景闹哄着，一郎也在其中。绍景说：“我说咱大家伙有话慢慢说，当初咱们可是一条心要把煤矿办起来呀！”一股东说：“当初，当初谁知道有今天？”刘掌柜说：“俺不要红利了，打掉牙往肚子里咽，返还本金就行了！”传杰说：“诸位是不是再等几天，让矿上想想办法。”另一个股东说：“什么办法，你们能想出什么办法？矿上停工都大半个月了，也没见你们有什么办法！”传杰说：“矿上有矿上的难处，也想把本金返给你们，可是一时拿不出那么多现金来。”又一股东说：“钱都哪去了？”传杰说：“大家也知道不是进了不少的新设备吗？” 朱开山示意大家安静，说：“大家是不是再挺几天，山河矿的事情已经惊动奉天的少帅了，少帅说他这几天忙，等腾出空来，就帮咱解决。”绍景说：“要说怕亏本，最害怕的应该是一郎了，他是山河矿最大的股东，可是人家一声也没吱啊！大家伙能不能跟人家一郎学一学。”一股东说：“一郎，一郎是什么人谁不知道？是朱家的干儿子。” 一郎接过话来说：“你这话不错，先放开干儿子这个话。咱们都是山河矿的股东，作为股东，最起码应该做到这一条吧：有福同享，有难同当，对不对？”那股东说：“一郎你是日本人，你能管中国人的死活吗？”一郎有些激动了：“这位老哥，我是生在日本，可是现在我是中国人，早就入中国国籍了。”文他娘问：“一郎啊，你入中国国籍了？”一郎说：“对，那是1926年俺在天津的时候。” 绍景吃惊地问道：“一郎，你怎么加入中国国籍了？”一郎说：“大家伙光知道我是朱家的干儿子，可是知道我为什么认他们干爹干娘吗——二十年前他们救了我的命，没有朱家我一郎早就化成灰，不知飞哪儿去了！还有，我在中国做生意，赚的是中国人的钱，中国人是我的衣食父母，朱家对我有恩，中国人对我有恩，我为什么不入中国籍？为什么不做个中国人？不这么做，我觉得对不起自己的良心！”一郎说得自己泪光闪烁，他又问绍景：“副总经理，现在有多少人要撤股？总共需要返还多少现金？”绍景说：“要撤股的是三十二个人，总共算起来有七八十万块钱。”一郎想了想说：“三位经理在这，为了咱中国人自己的山河煤矿，这笔钱，我一郎出了！” 几个股东听这话，忙掏出自己的股权证书放到朱开山面前说：“老掌柜的，有人出钱了，返给俺现金吧！”朱开山看了看一郎，慢条斯理说：“一郎，有这么多钱吗？”一郎说：“爹，你放心，我把天津那面的资产撤过来一部分，就足够了。”朱开山说：“一郎，你就不怕山河矿没有起色，你血本无归吗？”一郎说：“我想事情不会老是这样，我和铁路打交道的次数多了，从来没听说有这么高的运价，它早晚得掉下来。到那时候，还愁山河矿没生意做吗？”朱开山朝股东们说：“一郎说得也有道理。有一郎肯为山河矿兜底，大家伙心里头也该踏实了吧？把股权证都先拿回去，矿上再合计合计，最好别把这七八十万块钱都押到一郎一个人身上，稍等个三天两天的，一定给大伙儿准信。” 陈先生匆匆走进传文旅馆的房间，将一个大信封递到他跟前说：“老弟，你要的东西全在这里了。”传文问：“一样也不差吗？”陈先生说：“连是账簿的哪一本哪一页哪一行我都标上了。”传文说：“那真谢谢老哥了。”他又掏出两根金条，塞到陈先生手里。陈先生说：“也谢谢老弟你。”传文揣起那个大信封，起身说：“老哥，兄弟告辞了。”陈先生说：“别呀，总得吃点饭，这遭是老哥做回东道，请你。”传文说：“不了，家里面等着听我的消息呢！我去邮电局给家里通个话。” 二人出了旅馆。石川和鹤鸣会的小野带着几个人迎了上去。石川冲传文一抱拳，说：“这不是哈尔滨四味楼的大掌柜吗？”传文一愣说：“你是谁？”石川一笑道：“贵人哪，就是好忘事！我是四味楼的常客，不记得了？”传文摇摇头说：“好像不记得。”石川说：“你这是刚刚吃完饭吗？”传文说：“没呢，准备去吃。”石川说：“那咱先请两位烫个澡吧？”传文说：“谢谢你了，我还有事呢！”石川说：“有事待会办，烫个澡，多美的事啊！”传文还在发愣，不明所以，小野和几个手下已经连扯带拽把他和陈先生架起就走。 看小野几个人都阴着脸，传文吓得心慌手凉，只是一路赔笑。那陈先生也是心虚无比，手揣在兜里紧紧握住两根金条不撒。石川开路，将一干人带到一个日式的浴室里。传文进了浴室，更摸不着头脑，低声对陈先生说：“陈先生，我怎么就想不起来刚才这帮人是谁呢？”陈先生说：“四味楼是个什么地方？”传文说：“俺家开的饭庄。”陈先生说：“老弟，你们家还开饭庄啊？”传文说：“哪止饭庄，还有货栈呢！”陈先生说：“那也是大买卖家呀！”传文说：“也不能说太大，不过在哈尔滨还是有一号的。”陈先生说：“兴许真是您家的老客户呢？” 石川忽然冷冷地笑起来，一挥手，小野的几个手下上前把陈先生按倒在地，反剪着肩膀，陈先生疼得嗷嗷直叫。石川问：“你是东胜商社的吧？”陈先生说：“是啊，你们想干什么？”石川指着传文说：“刚才你把什么交给他了？”陈先生说：“什么也没给呀。”石川递了个脸色给小野，小野说了句日语，几个手下揪着陈先生的头发把他拽到浴室的水池边，一下子把他的头摁进水池子，猛灌了一阵子，又拽起来。石川冷笑道：“说，交给他什么了？” 传文看得头皮发麻，颤声问：“先生，你们到底是干什么的？”石川冷冷一笑说：“森田物产的。”传文一惊道：“你们是日本人？”石川点点头说：“他刚才是不是把东胜商社的账目交给你了？”传文说：“没有，没有啊！” 陈先生已被灌得奄奄一息，抬起头高叫道：“我说，我全说。”石川朝传文说：“看，人家多聪明！”他转向陈先生说：“说吧，我听着呢！” 陈先生忽然张口大骂道：“小鬼子，我操你八辈祖宗！”石川一皱眉，朝小野挥了一下手。小野冲上前搂住陈先生的脖子，猛地一转，只听咔嚓一声，陈先生一点动静也没有了，脖子软软地垂了下来，人也瘫在地上。 传文吓得筛糠一样。石川上前逼住他说：“看见了吗，看见他的脖子了吗？说！他刚才交给你什么了？”传文哇的一声大哭起来，同时裤裆一热，竟尿了裤子。
