Chapter 196: Seeing Gao Liu Home
The file's record of Chen Yongren's resume is not complete.
But it is precisely these missing records that gave Chen Yongren the opportunity to write freely.
"Yo!"
Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Jintai also had no doubt: "Chen Sang, what Youzi said is correct; you are indeed a very hardworking young man."
When at home, he often heard Youzi and Linai praise Chen Yongren's diligence.
He was even willing to learn Japanese to serve the locust army; to earn extra tips, he specially learned German to please that businessman, which is not strange.
"Compared to the commandant's efforts, I am nothing." Chen Yongren said.
Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Jintai felt indescribably happy.
Chen Sang's words are always pleasant to hear.
After encouraging Chen Yongren a bit, the three entered the restaurant and, led by the waiter, came to a private room.
"Chen Sang, you've entertained German guests before, so please help order some German specialties!" Tengyuan Jintai handed the menu to Chen Yongren, saying: "By the way, help us see if the German food here is authentic."
"We have no dietary restrictions; feel free to choose."
"Yes!" Chen Yongren picked up the menu, without hesitation, spoke in German: "Sauerbraten, Black Forest ham, beef rouladen, boiled sausage, potato bean soup."
"Roasted mixed meat, meat salad, staple: a basket of bread, plus three beers."
"Sir, you are the best Chinese person I've ever heard speaking German." The female waiter had prepared to speak Chinese.
Chen Yongren smiled and nodded: "Please serve the dishes quickly."
The female waiter slightly bowed, then left holding the menu.
"Chen Sang, your German is really good." Tengyuan Jintai praised again.
"It's just me showing off; if not for the commandant bringing it up, I would have almost forgotten this." Chen Yongren said humbly.
Soon, the dishes were served one by one.
Chen Yongren also acted as a temporary translator, translating the dishes introduced by the waiter into Japanese.
"Commandant Fujiwara, this is Germany's most famous Black Forest ham." Chen Yongren used tongs to pick up a slice of sausage and place it on Tengyuan Jintai's plate, saying.
"This is the signature dish of Schneider Restaurant; please try it."
Tengyuan Jintai pretentiously picked up a fork, speared a slice of sausage, put it in his mouth to chew, and showed a satisfied smile.
Although thin as a cicada's wing, the flavor is extraordinarily fragrant.
The taste of German cuisine is indeed good, mainly sour and salty, with relatively heavy seasoning; paired with authentic beer, the flavor is even better.
During this, Chen Yongren also introduced German local customs and eating habits, causing Tengyuan Jintai to nod frequently.
Although he didn't fully understand, he still felt it was impressive.
Gaoliu Xiuchi also curiously asked a few questions, all of which Chen Yongren easily resolved.
After three large beers, Tengyuan Jintai belched, drunk, and said: "Chen Sang, speaking of those matters, what do you think?"
Chen Yongren knew what Tengyuan Jintai was saying, and immediately replied: "Very simple, Major His Excellency."
"Why don't we, while these gangs are weak, bring them under our control? Simply looting from them is not a long-term plan."
"Only by fostering our own force can we continuously reap benefits."
Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Jintai nodded in deep agreement.
Songhu, as an international metropolis in the Far East, also hosts many foreign dignitaries; naturally, we must ensure local stability so they continue to invest in Songhu.
Merely thinking about looting things is not a long-term plan.
"Moreover, we can't handle these matters ourselves; we must find a white glove to manage them for us." Chen Yongren continued.
"Even if the plot is exposed, we can immediately cut ties with them."
"Major His Excellency, Chen Sang makes sense." Gaoliu Xiuchi agreed.
After careful consideration, Tengyuan Jintai nodded and said: "Chen Sang, I'll entrust this matter to you; speak up if you need anything."
"When encountering stubborn troublemakers, directly mobilize the military police to suppress them; no matter how fierce they are, can they match our guns?"
"Charge them with treason; surely they won't dare say another word."
This is for serving his own wallet; Tengyuan Jintai naturally won't be stingy.
"Yes, Commandant Fujiwara!" Chen Yongren readily agreed.
What he wanted was just that sentence from Tengyuan Jintai, being able to mobilize the military police to clean up those little hooligans— isn't that just simple?
Use the little Japanese's people to handle our own affairs.
The concession is managed by the Chinese Gang.
Then, in the Japanese War Zone, foster an organization that outwardly loyally serves the Japanese but secretly opposes Japan, to purge those traitorous Han collaborators, and stand opposed to the Yellow Way Society's foolish lot.
Once it develops, whether Songhu is chaotic or not will be entirely up to me alone to decide.
After settling this matter, Tengyuan Jintai was in high spirits and drank a few more cups.
At the dinner table.
Besides Tengyuan Jintai, Chen Yongren also kept pouring drinks for Gaoliu Xiuchi, making toasts.
Gaoliu Xiuchi's face always bore a satisfied smile.
He had previously worried that Chen Yongren becoming Tengyuan Jintai's favorite would make him arrogant and undisciplined.
Now, upon looking.
Gaoliu Xiuchi liked Chen Yongren more and more the more he looked.
Too bad, he's a Chinaman, and already used by Commandant Fujiwara; otherwise keeping him nearby as an assistant would be better.
But now he can only think about it.
After three rounds of drinks.
"Chen Sang, go settle the bill!" Tengyuan Jintai, dazed, pulled out 100 yen from his wallet and slapped it into Chen Yongren's hand.
Remember to get receipts; when we get back we'll have someone settle the accounts!
Besides, I'm only here to cheer up those German envoys by experiencing German cuisine, so it all counts as official duty.
Since the old devil is willing to pay, Chen Yongren naturally won't be polite.
At the price of 20 yen with no change needed, I got several receipts from the restaurant owner totaling 100 yen.
Anyway, the loss isn't my own money, so the more holes I can dig for the Japanese, the more I do, slowly eroding them to gain more benefits.
After stuffing the yen and receipts into Fujiwara Chunta's pocket, Chen Yongren had the driver take him home.
Afterwards, Chen Yongren called another rickshaw and personally delivered the drunk Gao Liu Xiuji home.
Chen Sang~
Please apply a bit more force, Meijinzi can withstand it.
Your massage skills are getting better and better.
Right here.
Meijinzi really likes it; please come more next time.
Mm~
……
Huh?
Just as I arrived near Gao Liu Xiuji's residence, a stream of thoughts poured into Chen Yongren's ears.
Hiss.
These Japanese women seem to be playing Happy Beans.
Upon entering the range of the Wind-Following Ear technique, the sounds inside the house reached Chen Yongren's ears.
The battlefield was extraordinarily fierce.
Listening to the sounds inside the house, Chen Yongren, out of mischievous fun, wanted to find some amusement.
As Meijinzi was about to reach the endpoint, Chen Yongren directly knocked on the door.
Dang dang dang~
