"The next afternoon, Ke Quanen came again. And he wasn't alone. There was another person with him. He was about 40 years old. His face was very white and he had a tuft of beard under his nose. He was obviously Japanese. He was also carrying something in his hand.”
"This time, Ke Quanen is really thick-skinned. I didn't call him in and he squeezed his way in. He kept saying,'Boss Zhao, I'll tell you the truth. Your place is really a place with good feng shui. Look, I came here yesterday and today. Not only did I come here alone, but I also brought a friend with me. This is a Japanese friend of mine. His name is Saburo Watanabe. I came to ask for your hand in marriage on his behalf yesterday.'”
"I was shocked when I saw him. This old man is about the same age as me, but he still has the cheek to come out and embarrass himself. I said to Ke Quanen,'I didn't promise you yesterday, and I won't promise you today. Promise me, but give up on this idea. Don't bring anyone to me. I don't welcome you here!'I was about to pull him out when the Japanese guy opened his mouth. I was shocked when he opened his mouth. He spoke Chinese more fluently than us.”
"'Boss Zhao, oh no! Father-in-law, I sincerely came to propose marriage. a graceful lady is a gentleman's good catch. I admire your two daughters very much.'After saying that, he placed the thing in his hand in front of me and bowed to me. He was still nagging, Please agree to my request.”
"Before I could catch it, Ke Quanen came up to me. Boss Zhao, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Look at Mr. Watanabe Saburo. He's polite, dignified, and has a sense of propriety. He's really a one-in-a-thousand handsome man. It's more than enough to be your son-in-law. Even I'm envious. Moreover, the two of you are both outstanding figures in the business world. In the future, when you two join hands, no one in Wuhu City can defeat you. This is really a perfect match. I'm just telling you what's in my heart. I want to congratulate you! Boss Zhao, don't decline. I'm definitely going to pull this red string and keep this matchmaker safe. Mr. Watanabe Saburo personally came to your house today to show that he values you and your family. Taijun wouldn't go to someone else's house as a guest. Since he had come to your house, there was a reason that you couldn't turn him down. Let me tell you from the bottom of my heart, as long as you agree to such a marriage, you will be a popular person in front of the imperial army. You will also be a popular person in Wuhu City. You will also be a popular person in front of all our rice colleagues. Don't you know what's good for you! Let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Mr. Watanabe Saburo is a noble of the Imperial Army in Wuhu. I was entrusted by the Imperial Army to be the matchmaker for Watanabe Saburo. Boss Zhao, I'll be honest with you. In today's occasion, you have to agree or not. You can't afford to offend Mr. Watanabe Saburo, and you can't afford to offend the person behind him!”
"At this moment, Watanabe Saburo's face turned cold. Father-in-law, what Ke Sang said just now was what I wanted to say. I think you won't reject my sincere request. If you agree, it'll be good for you, me, and everyone else. Otherwise, you know what the outcome will be! People in China are very polite. Today is the first time I visit your home. I treat you with the courtesy of a gentleman. Of course, I won't do it every time. I'm patient. I'll give you some time. You can consider my request. I'll come back in three days. I'll bring the betrothal gift. Don't go anywhere in these three days. Just consider how to agree to my request. That's all I have to say. I'm leaving now! After saying that, he bowed to me and turned to leave.”
"I was so angry that my hands and feet went numb. I picked up the things on the ground and was about to throw them out. Ke Quanen said,"Boss Zhao, I'll be honest with you. If you throw out the things in your hands today, you'll be making an enemy of the Imperial Army. They'll immediately invite you to the military police. Think about it!"'”
"Thinking of the things in Wan 'er and Tong' er's hands that are still in the house, I really don't dare to throw them out. If I enter the military police, what will happen to them? The result is still the same."
"Saburo Watanabe walked to the door and suddenly turned around.'Father-in-law, there's one more thing I want to explain to you. I'm prepared to invest in your rice store. I'll pay 5000 yuan. I don't want to take more than half of the shares.'”
"Watching these two people go out, I feel powerless. All the roads are blocked by them. They want to snatch my daughter's family property, but they also want to snatch it. 5000 yuan for half of the shares of the rice store is daylight robbery. "I wanted to report to the Four Seas Trading Company, but the butler, Old Zhao, arrived at the door and was blocked by them. I knew that we were under house arrest and had no way out. Wan 'er, Tong' er, and I were already prepared to die. Today is also the second day of the deadline they gave me. Yao 'er, if you hadn't come over now, I really wouldn't know what to do next!”
Murong Yao said," Uncle Zhao, don't be anxious. Things have not reached the point where they are out of control. There are some things that I have not figured out yet. Wait a little while for me to think it through. I will tell you again."”
After a while, Murong Yao said," Uncle Zhao, this matter is a little strange. It seems like this Japanese person came directly to your house. But from the beginning to the end, other than this traitor, no one from the military police appeared. Also, the people guarding the front and back are not from the military police. They are all hooligans and gangsters. I believe they have the ability to call the gendarmerie, but they seem to be avoiding something.”
"It's not difficult to resolve this matter. The worst thing to do is to leave. As long as we can last until tonight, I can immediately get rid of these hooligans at the front and back door. This time, we have a boat docked by the river three miles south of Wuhu! Wan 'er and Tong' er were not weak young ladies. They could still walk and run. Three miles was a piece of cake for them. However, I just said that this method is the worst choice. I don't think things should be resolved like this. There must be a better way. Uncle Zhao, I heard you say that it was this Ke guy who was the go-between. Wan 'er and Tong' er don't usually go out. How would the Japanese know? This Ke fellow couldn't be kept alive. Do you know where Saburo Watanabe lives?”
"Ke Quanen should know where he lives!" Zhao Mingyuan shook his head.”
"Then we'll alert the enemy."
Butler Zhao suddenly interjected,"I think I heard Ke Quanen say that Saburo Watanabe is staying at the Dragon River Hotel.”
Murong Yao thought for a moment and said,"Interesting. It seems that I have to go and meet this Watanabe Saburo."?”
Zhao Ming Yuan was shocked.”
"Uncle Zhao, do I look like someone who would mess around? This Saburo Watanabe actually doesn't live with the military police. He either has something to rely on or is afraid of. I think it's nothing more than these two reasons. This way, I wouldn't be facing the military police, but an individual. In that case, things would be simple. By the way, Uncle Zhao, what did Saburo Watanabe look like?”
Zhao Mingyuan thought for a moment." He's about 40 years old. His face is very pale, but he doesn't have white hair. He has a small mustache under his nose. He's about the same height as me." Oh, right! He has a small black mole between his eyebrows. I can't think of anything else.”
"These are enough. Since there are characteristics, it's easy! Uncle Zhao, you should get ready in the afternoon. Wan 'er and Tong' er can't stay in Wuhu anymore. Prepare some things for them. After that, come back to Qingyang with us.”
Murong Yao turned around and smiled at Wan 'er and Tong' er.""Don't cry and make your face look ugly. When I'm done with this, I'll take you to Qingyang Three Family Village and live a free life.”
Murong Yao's words made the two little girls laugh through their tears.
Zhao Ming Yuan was still worried about Murong Yao's safety.""Yao 'er, you'd better not go to that Watanabe Saburo. At most, I'll give up this property and go back to Qingyang.”
Murong Yao shook his head." Uncle Zhao, there are some things that can't be avoided by hiding. We have to find a way to solve it once and for all." I know you don't like to offend people. However, the result was the same whether you offended or not when faced with evil people. Evil people had their own ways of being tortured. Don't worry about me. I'm not afraid of these Japanese at all. My idea is to control them within an effective range and solve them. There was no need to be polite when punishing evil people, so that they would cause less harm in this world.”
Murong Yao turned around and smiled at Zhao Ming Yuan in embarrassment.""Uncle Zhao, I came out in a hurry and didn't bring much money with me. Can you lend me some?”
"Why are you still asking me if I'm going to lend it to you? Tell me how much you want!"
"This is about, maybe, a hundred dollars!”
"That much?"
"I'm going to see Saburo Watanabe. I need to put on some makeup and prepare my outfit, so I can't be too shabby.”
"That's not what I meant. Old Zhao, go get a hundred yuan for Yao 'er!”
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!"
"You're helping me, and you still have to thank me? Be careful!"
"Don't worry, Wan 'er and Tong' er can't live without a brother! Wan 'er and Tong' er, right? I will be careful." Murong Yao started to speak glibly again.
After lunch, Murong Yao arranged for two of his team members to stay at the Zhao family's residence. He climbed over the wall with Liu Zi and met up with Niu Zheng. Murong Yao told him the general situation,""I'm going to visit Watanabe Saburo in the evening. You come with me! Two more members were sent to the Zhao family, and the remaining five members were to guard the front and back doors.”
"It's only noon now. It's still early to evening.”
"It's not early. I'm afraid there's not enough time. We can't meet Watanabe Saburo in this way.”
In the afternoon, Murong Yao, Niu Zheng, and Liu Zi walked through the shops on the streets of Wuhu. Coming out of the clothing store, Murong Yao was dressed in a satin gown and a pair of black leather shoes. The embryonic form of a rich young master had already taken shape. Niu Zheng and Liu Zi were dressed in black satin shorts and black cloth shoes. They looked like thugs. After coming out of the barbershop, Murong Yao's hair was blown to a glossy shine. He had put on a lot of hair wax and paired it with a pair of sunglasses with small lenses. He looked like a young master from a rich family. As for the other two, their hair was split in half, as if it had been split in the middle by a knife. The image of the thugs was also vivid. When everything was ready, Murong Yao waved his hand.""Let's go!"
