Chapter 612 Reception
Chapter 612 Reception
After dinner, Chen Yang used the excuse of taking Fujiwara Shizuka out shopping, and Li Xianshu was too lazy to expose the two.
I just told him to be careful on the road.
The next day, Meihua Building, Joint Transport Department.
When He Yuehua saw Chen Yang for the first time, she was really shocked by his appearance.
The dark bags under his eyes and pale lips made him look as if all the energy had been sucked out of him overnight.
"Minister, are you okay?"
"I know a gentleman in Jing'an. Would you like to ask him to help you?"
"What are you looking at?" Chen Yang was angry and said, "You are the one who bumped into me."
"Have you confirmed the personnel who will pick up the boat tonight?"
He Yuehua nodded and handed a list to Chen Yang, saying, "It has been arranged."
"He Yuzhi, director of the Publicity Department of the City Hall, is in charge. This is the list submitted by the Publicity Department."
"The Navy Department has its own arrangements. I think they will send the list over this afternoon."
The Formosa Flower Song and Dance Troupe was on the Jixin cargo ship, which was built locally last year and began service in November last year.
According to the telegram sent by the other party, the freighter will arrive in Shanghai at eight o'clock in the evening.
This is a bit troublesome. If we arrive in Shanghai during the day, we can't hold a grand welcoming ceremony. If we arrive at night, we can only arrange some people to wave flags at the dock.
Chen Yang looked through the list and asked casually, "Have you arranged the hotel?"
He Yuehua nodded and said, "It has been arranged. Originally, according to your idea, we wanted to book the Chinachem Hotel."
"However, Colonel Okita from the Navy Department called to explain that the Chinachem Hotel has a complex flow of people from various countries, and it is not easy to monitor."
“We changed the hotel to the Cathay Hotel in the International Settlement.”
"In order to ensure that the artists of the song and dance troupe can have a good rest, we have booked two floors."
Chen Yang nodded, returned the list to He Yuehua and said, "Send the list to Okita-kun and ask him to confirm it."
"If you don't have anything to do today, don't bother me. I'm going to get some sleep first."
Eight o'clock in the evening, Wusongkou Wharf.
Accompanied by the long whistle, the Jixin cargo ship that came from the mainland steadily docked at the dock.
Red flags were waving on the dock, and countless people below were waving small sun flags in their hands at the cargo ship.
As the long staircase came down, a group of girls appeared in everyone's sight.
The night is dotted with stars and alluring. The faint starlight sprinkles on the girls, making each of them look delicate, lovely and stunningly beautiful.
As expected, she is a girl carefully selected by the Takarazuka Revue. Her figure alone is much more graceful than that of ordinary girls.
Soon, a group of people got off the boat.
The team at the dock welcomed everyone in not very standard Japanese.
The girls also waved politely to everyone.
Compared to these pretty girls, the two men at the front of the team aroused Chen Yang's interest more.
"Colonel Uchiyama, Mr. Kobayashi, thank you for your hard work on the journey. Welcome to China."
Chen Yang walked to the front and bowed slightly to the two leaders, saying, "I am Chen Yang, the Minister of the Joint Transportation Department. I will be responsible for your itinerary this time."
"Minister Chen?" Uchiyama Yukishi obviously knew Chen Yang's name, and he quickly bowed and said, "I didn't expect that my visit to China would cause Minister Chen to come and greet me."
“I’m really flattered.”
"Mr. Xiaolin, Minister Chen is very famous in the local area. Currently, the most popular company in the local area, Life Sunshine Pharmaceutical Company, is Minister Chen's company."
Kobayashi Kazuo couldn't help but shudder when he heard this.
He may not know about other companies, but it is likely that he does not know about Life Sunshine Pharmaceuticals.
Penicillin has become a top-priority military supply, and the factory price of this drug is only 260 yen.
But the selling price is at least 550 yen.
What's even more terrifying is that you can't just buy something for 550 yen. You need to get a slip of approval from the business department of Mitsubishi or Sumitomo Corporation.
Some people even collect this medicine as if it were gold.
Kobayashi Kazuo couldn't imagine how rich the boss of Life Sunshine Pharmaceutical was.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. I am Kazuo Kobayashi, the director of the Formosa Flower Art Troupe."
After knowing the other party's identity, Kobayashi Kazuo changed his arrogant expression and became polite unconsciously.
"Hello, Colonel Uchiyama, I'm Keiji Okita from the Navy Special Affairs Investigation Division." At this time, Keiji Okita who was beside Chen Yang also came up.
Yukishi Uchiyama bowed slightly to Chen Yang, then walked aside with Keiji Okita.
The two spoke a few words in private, and then seemed to hand something to each other.
After Okita Keiji got the things, he bowed slightly to Chen Yang and said, "Mr. Chen, please arrange a place for Uchiyama-kun to stay."
"We have to go back and report first."
Chen Yang nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll arrange it."
After saying that, he asked everyone to get on the prepared car and drive to Shanghai.
Inside the car, Chen Yang looked at Uchiyama Yukishi who was holding a small password box and said in surprise: "Uchiyama-kun, since you have arrived in China, why don't you give this thing to Okita-kun?"
Yukiji Uchiyama hesitated for a moment, but still explained: "Minister Chen, the navy has its own system."
"I need to personally hand over the contents here to the person in charge of the Navy's secret message group."
"I have to see him input the password and open the box in front of me to confirm his identity."
Seeing Chen Yang's puzzled expression, Yukishi Uchiyama patiently explained it again.
Simply put, Yukiji Uchiyama's mission is to bring the code book in the box to the Chinese Navy's secret code group.
However, he did not know the password of the box, only the person in charge of the secret code group knew it.
In order to prevent leaks, the password of the box will be sent to the Navy Department in Shanghai after he arrives in China.
The mission will only be completed if the head of the secret code group opens the box in front of him.
If someone tries to steal the box along the way, Yukiji Uchiyama's mission is to live and die with the box.
Even if it is destroyed, the other party cannot be allowed to get the box.
After listening to Yukiji Uchiyama's words, Chen Yang smiled and said, "Mr. Uchiyama, you don't have to be too nervous."
"The Shanghai market is still dominated by the Empire, and no one would want to take this box."
Yukiji Uchiyama smiled and said, "Of course, but this is a mission given to me by the military. A soldier's first priority is to obey orders."
The car drove straight and arrived at the Cathay Hotel which had been booked in advance.
It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening when Chen Yang arranged everyone to check into the hotel.
Rubbing his eyelids, Chen Yang said goodbye to Kazuo Kobayashi and Yukiji Uchiyama, and quickly asked Jun'aka Takada to take him home to sleep.
He was busy all night yesterday and until midnight today. Now he just wants to have a good sleep.
In the early morning, just as the sky was getting light, a disturbing telephone ring suddenly rang...
