How big was Old Zhang's family?
There were 70 people in the kitchen alone. This parlor was a place for eating Western food. It was only opened a few times a year. Usually, there was no one there. After all, everyone was a prostitute. Who would like to eat Western food? Especially for a person like Old Zhang. If he wanted to eat Western food, there would be no other way except to have customers.
This Oda Ichiro was from the Wei Nation. Zhang Zhengzong had dealt with him before and knew his eating habits. Not only was this guy delicious, but he also liked to imitate the navy and especially liked western food.
The navy was very westernized. Most countries were like this. After all, the navy was rich.
Noda Ichiro did not wear a military uniform. He came to Old Zhang's house as a friend, but to Old Zhang, this old devil was more of an opponent.
After all, Old Zhang thought that he only cared about three kinds of people: his opponents, his brothers, and his subordinates. Other than that, there was nothing else.
"Brother Oda, the last time we met was in Spring City. It's been two years!”Old Zhang cupped his hands, and as for Noda, he bowed slightly to Old Zhang to show his friendliness.
Although the etiquette of both parties was different, they had fulfilled their obligations.
Other than himself, Noda also brought a young Japanese girl. It was unknown who she was. Old Zhang and Little Zhang were similar, and they both took a few more glances at this girl.
She was quite good-looking, perhaps even beautiful enough to topple a country. However, the beauty mark on her chin was unforgettable.
"Zhang Sang, you and I are friends, so there is no need to say these words. This is my niece, Noda Hideki.”Oda Ichiro was born in the same family as Old Zhang. They were both low-class people who relied on the war to rise up and slowly climb up.
Noda Hideki didn't say anything and just bowed to Zhang Zhengzong. This bow was much more sincere than Noda Ichiro's. Whether it was the Japanese or the Wei Nation, they were both countries where men were superior to women. In this era, the status of women was very low.
"That's true. Arrange it. The dishes are served. This little girl is not bad.”Zhang Zhengzong told the servant girl beside him that his banquet naturally could not be sloppy. The people from the Marshal's Residence had arranged it very well, and he even praised Noda Hideki casually. However, when he saw his son's eyes, he immediately glared at him. This Japanese girl had to be careful. Who knew if she was a female spy!
Generally speaking, women were not allowed to attend the banquet, but this Japanese girl was still a guest, so Zhang Zhengzong did not say anything.
What was the most important thing in socializing?
Wine.
This was common in the human world. Alcohol, tobacco, and sex were often good things to quickly close the distance between two men. However, it was only fast. If they wanted to become sworn friends, they had to have a life-and-death relationship.
Old Zhang didn't have many things, but he had many sworn brothers and social interactions.
Western food was very particular. Let's not talk about what to eat. The two adults were talking, and the two young men and women were sizing each other up. Zhang Zhengzong only glanced at Little Six occasionally. This kid had time, leisure, and money. No wonder he was so hated.
"Zhang Sang, we are all sensible people. This time, we are even. I will restrain them in the future.”
Noda Ichiro was similar to Zhang Zhengzong. They were both sly and cunning characters. How could they not guess what the other party was thinking and doing?
It was nothing more than revenge. Otherwise, with the strength and confidence of the Feng army, would they have the guts to provoke the Japanese army?
One had to know that the instructors of the Feng army were all Japanese.
This disciple even dared to hit his master. He was rebelling against the heavens!
Zhang Zhengzong held a goblet. The Japanese of the Taisho era were really honest, completely different from the Shōwa era.
It was probably related to the person in power. Now that the brainless emperor was about to die, there was not much time left for him.
Although he didn't know if there were 14 concubines in this world, he still had to be wary of the Japanese.
"Endure for a while and calm down. Take a step back and the sky will be wide.”
Old Zhang shook his glass at Noda. The two clinked glasses and each took a sip of red wine.
Was this considered an agreement between the evil forces?
In the end, Feng Jun had profited this time. After all, three more Japanese soldiers had died. That bit of money was nothing compared to Feng Jun's face and morale. It was not worth mentioning.
Of course, it would not be so easy to get through in private. Zhang Zhengzong had to give a gift to Noda. As the King of the Northeast, he was much more powerful than Noda, the commander of the Kwantung Army. Their family assets were not on the same level.
The Old Zhang family did not count as the territory that they had fought for. Even if he, Little Six, was defeated, he would not be able to spend all the money and land in three lifetimes.
Every year, just collecting rent alone would bring in 100 million catties of grain.
Noda was also a corrupt official. Don't think that the Japanese generals were all noble. There were also corrupt officials. Moreover, he was born in poverty, but he was much more greedy than people with good backgrounds. In Director Qi's words, he was afraid of poverty in his first three lifetimes.
There was almost no bottom line!
After reaching an agreement, the two of them continued to chat about the past outside the Great Wall. During the war, Noda was a spy, or else he wouldn't have been the liaison officer of Zhang Zhengzong, who was in charge at that time.
Old Zhang was busy with business, so Little Zhang could not interrupt. This Japanese girl ignored him, making him a little annoyed.
When the two of them were almost done eating, they announced the end of the banquet. Xiao Zhang and Xiu Ji heaved a sigh of relief. The two of them had only eaten a few mouthfuls and were listening to the old fox's bragging.
They all belonged to the category of people who had peed on thousands of battles in the past and now peed on their shoes in the wind.
To sum it up in four words, let's talk blindly!
After the two Japanese left, Zhang Zhengzong was no longer as drunk as before. He kicked Xiao Zhang and Xiao Liuzi fiercely and scolded," F * ck, was he reincarnated as a pervert in his previous life? Haven't you seen a woman before? Are you f * cking useless? I'll f * ck you to death first.”
"Don't be angry, Dad. I know what you did tonight. I'm not stupid.”Was Little Zhang stupid?
If he was really stupid, would there be so many proud women who would like him?
The emotional quotient of the father and son of the Zhang family was very high. They were so high that they could make women look at them.
"You bastard, pack your things and get lost. If you can't learn it, don't come back. You can just be a rich young master over there.”
Xiao Zhang shrunk his head. Why did he feel that his father had been especially targeting him in the past few days? Looking at him, he wanted to whip him.
With his attitude, how could he make Old Zhang and his brothers submit to him? Sooner or later, he would be taken over by them. He had no prestige at all.
It was no wonder that when Old Zhang died in history, the Feng faction fell apart. It was completely because the young marshal did not have the prestige of the old marshal. Those old officials thought that they were old and had great prestige, so they did not buy the young marshal's words. The discord between the monarch and the minister led to the fall of the three provinces.
Even Zhang had to be careful of his brothers. If they could share their Cheese, they would be brothers. If they touched their Cheese, they would not be brothers anymore.
Don't think that Old Zhang didn't know that these bastards were eating empty pay, drinking soldier blood, and selling cigarettes. He knew very well who these guys were.
If it weren't for these people messing around, Feng Jun wouldn't have lost so badly.
Zhang Zhengzong felt that this was a good opportunity. He had to learn from Song Taizu and give up his military power with a glass of wine.
It was difficult. The relationship between the officers and generals in Feng's faction was deeply intertwined.
Some were even related by marriage, which was extremely difficult.
Old Zhang's influence was also the largest.
