Si Guangyuan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this. In Shanghai, anyone with some wealth and influence knew very well what kind of entity the Fujiwara Company was. As for its chairman, Fujiwara Tomohito, he was naturally a high-ranking figure. If he could lend a hand and save a Chinese person, it would be a piece of cake.
He quickly put on a smile and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Manshan to introduce us!"
Ren Manshan curled his lip in annoyance: "You flatter me. I can't possibly associate with someone like that. He rarely appears in public. I've only met him a few times, and those were all at gatherings held by the Japanese. Moreover, he never associates with officials of the new government. I can't get close to him at all."
"this…"
Si Guangyuan was dumbfounded when he heard this. If he couldn't even get close to Ren Manshan, how could he possibly get in touch with her? If he rashly went to ask for an audience, he was afraid he wouldn't even be able to get in the door.
Ren Manshan stopped keeping him in suspense and was eager to get rid of the person in front of him as soon as possible, so he continued, "However, there is one exception, namely Su Yue, the Secretary-General of the Shanghai Municipal Government. Before the new government took office in Shanghai, he was the former mayor of Shanghai. He studied in Japan in his early years and had very close ties with the Japanese high-ranking officials. He was not only a classmate of Katsuta Takashi, the Commander-in-Chief of the Military Police, but also had a good relationship with Fujiwara Tomohito. It is said that when the Tsuchihara Agency had Li Zhiqun arrest his cousin, it was Fujiwara Tomohito who rescued him."
At this point, he tapped his finger heavily on the table: "They robbed them directly from the door by the military police, and almost detained Li Zhiqun and Ding Mo. In the end, even someone like Tsuchihara Keiji had no choice but to acquiesce."
Si Guangyuan's eyes widened at his boss, a glimmer of hope in them. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Fujiwara Tomohito's influence is so great. If we can get him to help, rescuing Brother Mulin shouldn't be a problem."
"So, you need to get in touch with Su Yue first. This person is a local from Shanghai and knows Mr. Yue. If you go to pay him a visit as Mr. Yue's special envoy, he will definitely receive you. Moreover, he is greedy for money. As long as you are willing to spend money, everything will be fine!"
Ren Manshan was truly planning this for Si Guangyuan. He knew that if Wan Mulin hadn't been rescued and had even died at the hands of the Japanese, these Green Gang thugs might have held him and Li Zhiqun responsible.
Li Zhiqun was like a dead pig that doesn't fear boiling water; he had already risked everything and was wholeheartedly devoted to serving the Japanese, so naturally he no longer cared about anything else.
However, with a family to support, Ren Manshan couldn't ignore the possibility of a future, so he genuinely wanted to rescue Wan Mulin, which is why he spared no effort in guiding Si Guangyuan.
Upon hearing Ren Manshan's words, Si Guangyuan was overjoyed. Yue Sheng was willing to spend money to rescue Wan Mulin. He wasn't afraid of the other party asking for money; he was just afraid that the other party wouldn't ask for money.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked at Ren Manshan with a puzzled expression and asked slowly, "Brother Manshan, you're not being fair. If you had such connections, why didn't you just tell me directly? Instead, you went through Li Zhiqun's connections. If you had said so earlier, Brother Mulin would have been rescued by now!"
One sentence almost made Ren Manshan vomit blood. He pointed at Si Guangyuan, so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time. These Green Gang thugs were really not to be trifled with. He had suffered a great loss this time, and it was also a lesson learned.
However, he was too lazy to argue with Si Guangyuan and explained in an annoyed tone: "At that time, Wan Mulin was in Li Zhiqun's hands. Su Yue had a bad relationship with Li Zhiqun because of Li Zhiqun's arrest of his cousin. If you ask Su Yue to bail him out, it will only add fuel to the fire. Now that the person is in the Shadow Agency, the only option is to ask Fujiwara Tomohito. Let me remind you, Chairman Fujiwara is not someone you can easily ask. He is not short of money!"
Instead of wasting your time doubting me, you should think carefully about how to persuade this powerful figure!
Upon hearing this, Si Guangyuan quickly clasped his hands in thanks, saying with a smile, "It was all my fault, brother. Please forgive me, Brother Manshan! Haha!"
Having explained everything, Ren Manshan was unwilling to say anything more. Si Guangyuan was also eager to visit Su Yue, so he hurriedly took his leave. Ren Manshan watched Si Guangyuan's departing figure, couldn't help but spit out a curse, and returned to the house with a livid face.
In a courtyard in the northern part of Nanjing, the Nanjing Shadow Agency was established. Since the end of last year, various Japanese agencies have gradually begun to set up their own departments in Nanjing. As the organization that established the new Nanjing National Government and the backer of the puppet government, the Shadow Agency naturally set up its new headquarters early on.
In a room on one floor of the courtyard, Li Zhiqun was leaning back in his chair, looking relaxed. He held a cigar in his hand, took a puff, the embers of the cigarette sparkling, and gently exhaled the smoke, which swirled in the air. He felt refreshed and comfortable all over.
After a moment, he looked at the middle-aged man tightly bound to the chair in front of him, let out a contemptuous sneer, and asked indifferently, "Manager Feng, you're a smart man too. I went through so much trouble to find you, so I should at least say something!"
The middle-aged man couldn't help but smile bitterly. He looked around and saw several burly men with ferocious faces staring at him fiercely. He felt uneasy.
This person was none other than Su Jiaxiang's supplier, Feng Sinian, the manager of Yuanda Trading Company.
A few days ago, Li Zhiqun took Su Jiaxiang back to Nanjing to prepare to lure and capture the supplier. However, since Su Jiaxiang should be in Qingdao at the time, meeting the supplier in advance would easily arouse the other party's suspicion. Therefore, Li Zhiqun did not rush to meet him, but spent two days making arrangements. Finally, today, he successfully captured Feng Sinian.
When Feng Sinian and Su Jiaxiang were exchanging intelligence, they were captured. When they heard that some of the people were talking in Japanese, they knew that things had gone wrong and that they had been targeted by the Japanese.
