Respectfully

Pan Guangxing drank one cup after another, as if he wanted to let himself die of drunkenness before he could rest.

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man sat next to him, a little fat, with round eyes on his face.The man's name was Xu Guangzhi, and he was a clerk in the Road Administration Department under the Transportation Bureau of the Military Government of the Six Northern Provinces. He had some friendship with Pan Guangxing and often communicated with him.

"Brother Guangxing, drink less."

Pan Guangxing waved his hand, looking drunk, "Leave me alone!"

Xu Guangzhi wanted to persuade him again, but Pan Guangxing cursed with wine: "How many years have I been with the commander-in-chief, huh?! I have worked hard without complaint, even a donkey has no reason to kill it! The result? With that, Just one word from that milk doll whose hair hasn't even grown yet kicked me, I don't accept it!"

As he spoke, Pan Guangxing broke the wine glass, raised the jug and poured it into his mouth, not wanting to choke, so he coughed again and again.

"If you ask me, Qidong did not do this properly." Xu Guangzhi patted Pan Guangxing on the back and said, "No one can swallow this kind of thing of stealing prescriptions and selling them, let alone the commander-in-chief. gone."

"Isn't it just a prescription for soap? What's the point? I, Pan Guangxing, have devoted myself to the Lou family. Isn't it worth a prescription?! Qidong's hand was also chopped off, and my errand was gone. Say, it’s the guy surnamed Li who took the opportunity to make trouble!” Pan Guangxing’s eyes were red, “He’s disliked me for a long time! I told the commander, but the commander didn’t believe me! I…”

Xu Guangzhi was still persuading, but the meaning in his words gradually changed, "Faithful words have been harsh since ancient times."

Pan Guangxing didn't seem to hear Xu Guangzhi's words, so he raised the jug again, poured a jug of wine into his stomach, and fell drunk on the table.

"Brother Guangxing?" Xu Guangzhi pushed Pan Guangxing, and seeing that he was indeed drunk, he asked the waiter to pay the bill, helped Pan Guangxing out of the restaurant, called a rickshaw, and took Pan Guangxing home in person.

Seeing that Pan Guangxing was drunk like this, Mrs. Pan complained, "Why did you drink so much wine!" and hurriedly ordered her servants to help him back to the bedroom, and asked Xu Guangzhi to stay for a cup of tea.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to drink tea. You are busy here, so I won't bother you."

"Then thank you very much." Mrs. Pan didn't stay any longer and sent Xu Guangzhi out.

After walking a few steps, Xu Guangzhi suddenly turned around and asked, "Sister-in-law, how is Qidong's injury?"

"It's not like that." Mrs. Pan sighed, "I should be thankful for my life."

Xu Guangzhi said a few words of comfort, and then said nothing.

After leaving Pan's house, Xu Guangzhi walked through two alleys, walked to the door of a remote three-entry house, and knocked on the courtyard door: "Is anyone there?"

After a while, someone inside asked, "Who is it?"

"My surname is Xu. I'm here to see Mr. Jiang."

The courtyard door opened with a creak, and a woman about twenty years old stood by the door, "I don't have Mr. Jiang here, but Mrs. He does have one. Mr. Xu, do you want to come in and take a look?"

Xu Guangzhi unhurriedly took out three silver dollars from his pocket, all with their heads upside down, and put them in the woman's hand one by one, with two on the bottom and one on top, "It's the same for everyone."

The woman smiled, "Then come in."

When Xu Guangzhi entered the house, the woman looked behind him again. The alley was empty and there was no one there, so she closed the courtyard door.

When the courtyard door was closed, a man in black shorts jumped off the wall next to him, took note of the location of the house, and immediately strode away.

The woman brought Xu Guangzhi into the main hall, where a rather handsome man aged 25 or [-] was waiting there.

"Mr. Kawaguchi!" Xu Guangzhi stood up straight, bowed at ninety degrees, and spit out fluent Japanese.

"En." Kawaguchi Rei motioned for Xu Guangzhi to sit down, "How is the matter going?"

"Still observing." Xu Guangzhi said: "Whether Pan Guangxing is credible or not is still uncertain."

"There is no time." Rei Kawaguchi used force in one hand, and the teacup suddenly shattered, "Xiangzi's whereabouts are unknown, it is likely that the Lou family arrested her, we must find her whereabouts as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Pan Guangxing used to be Lou Shengfeng's confidant, so you should know some of his secrets, and find a way to get him to tell." Kawaguchi Reiichi's eyes flashed a sternness, "When necessary, use any means."

"As ordered!"

In Pan's house, Mrs. Pan sent Xu Guangzhi away, walked into the bedroom, and saw that Pan Guangxing, who was supposed to be lying on the bed, had got up and got out of bed, how could he still be a little drunk?

"Master, are you not drunk?"

"Not drunk." Pan Guangxing shook his head and told him, "Don't ask too many questions. Be careful when you meet Xu Guangzhi in the future."

"Hey." Mrs. Pan followed Pan Guangxing and had seen the big wind and waves before, so she didn't ask any more questions after hearing what her husband said.

"I'm going out for a few days, so keep your door open. Also send a letter to Zhenxue Zhenwu, don't go home if you have nothing to do."

After Pan Guangxing finished speaking, Mrs. Pan's hand shook, "Master, what's going on?"

"It's not all because of your good brother!"

Pan Guangxing was so angry that he wanted to slap the table, but he didn't want to show his feet, so he withdrew his hand, "Anyway, if this is done, maybe I can still work under the command of the commander, and our two sons can also have a good life." Future. If it doesn’t work, you can only accept your fate, at least the commander-in-chief will not pursue the past, even if Zhenxue and Zhenwu can’t be reused, they will have nothing to worry about.”

The more Pan Guangxing said that, the more frightened Mrs. Pan became, and she couldn't help crying.Seeing that her husband looked stern, he didn't dare to speak out, so he could only cover his mouth with a handkerchief, tears streaming down his face.The resentment towards my younger brother in my heart has risen directly from the previous one point to ten points.

For this ineffective younger brother, the whole family is probably going to get involved!I knew that I would keep him in my hometown for life and death, and not let him step into Guanbei City, but now it's too late...

"master……"

"Okay, there's nothing to cry about." Pan Guangxing waved his hand, "Think about the good too. If things come to fruition, our family will completely turn around in front of the commander."

Mrs. Pan finally stopped crying.

Marshal Lou is determined this time to uproot the hidden forces of the Japanese in Guanbei City.These oriental sluts have wolfish ambitions, and have been sending people into China since before the Sino-Japanese War, using various identities to spy on China's intelligence.Some Japanese spies imitated the Chinese in everything they said and acted. At first glance, it was almost impossible to tell whether they were Chinese or Japanese.

There are many such Japanese spies in the six northern provinces, and even more in Guanbei City.Marshal Lou had mastered a batch before, but he didn't expect to get twice as many from Kawaguchi Koko!Even his side was nailed by the Japanese!

Just thinking about it, Marshal Lou felt a chill down his spine.The horse almost lost the rein, and he was still dreaming!

"Xiao'er, are you asking this from that Japanese woman?"

"Yes." Lou Xiao replied, "It hasn't been confirmed yet."

"No need." Marshal Lou's tone was filled with a sense of impending rain, "I'd rather kill by mistake than let one go! Being involved with these Japanese spies is not a good thing."

"Yes!"

"Is that woman still alive?"

"Alive."

"That's good, we can't let her die." Marshal Lou clenched his fists, "Little Japan dares to play tricks under my nose, so as not to let them have a better memory, I will not be called Lou Shengfeng!"

Marshal Lou was sharpening his knife, while calculating the polar bear's territory, while thinking about chopping off the neck of the Japanese.

President Sima was not idle either.

The north and the south are still at odds with each other on the matter of the bannerman's rebellion.President Sima is determined to put this shit bowl on Zheng Huai'en's head, and President Zheng is not easy to bully, if Sima Jun dares to shoot him, he dares to shoot Sima Jun!In terms of verbal battles, he, Zheng Huai'en, has never been afraid of anyone!

The president is arguing with each other, and government officials from both sides are also coming and going. Not only are telephones flying all over the sky, but newspaper articles follow one after another, each waving the flag for his own side.

After the government officials, the superintendents who held the real power in the provinces also responded. The neighboring provinces on both sides began to gather troops, especially Han Anshan and Song Zhou, who had been in constant friction before, and they were almost ready to fight.

Anyone can see that the domestic situation is getting more and more tense, and a fight may break out at any time.

Marshal Lou finally saw what Sima Jun wanted to do, and he was really planning to attack the south.Once the two sides fight, the six northern provinces are bound to send troops.The series of plans set up for the Japanese before must be adjusted, and the thought of the commander-in-chief Lou is so angry that he scolds his mother.

"If you don't do it sooner or later, it's just at this juncture!"

But he couldn't complain openly, otherwise he would be on the opposite side of the entire northern government, so he could only hold his nose and send a telegram expressing his support for President Sima's decision.

In response to the tense situation, the army in the six northern provinces began to expand.Young Marshal Lou's independent regiment became an independent brigade, and the sudden increase in personnel naturally brought many problems.Marshal Lou spent most of his time in the barracks, and occasionally he would be called to the study by Marshal Lou when he came home. When he returned to his room, Li Jinyan was often asleep.

Lou Xiao would wipe the faint blue color in Li Jinyan's eyes with his fingers, and hold him in his arms, but he never woke him up.When Li Jinyan woke up in the morning, Marshal Lou had already got up and went to the barracks.

At the beginning of April, Boss Pu in Shanghai sent a telegram to suspend his trip to the north due to something.Li Jinyan was a little disappointed, but he could understand.The north and the south may fight at any time, and Shanghai is a little far away from Guanbei, separated by several provinces. It is indeed not suitable to leave at this time.Boss Song from Tianjin also sent a telegram saying that handmade soap is selling well in Tianjin and he plans to expand production.

Boss Song's reaction was within Li Jinyan's expectations. He told Boss Song that new varieties of handmade soap are still being developed. If you are interested, you can come to Guanbei to discuss after the situation stabilizes.

In mid-April, creams and lipsticks start to hit the market.

Li Jinyan ingeniously erected a billboard on a firm that sells creams and lipsticks, with a picture of a beauty with red lips and white teeth, snowy skin, delicate red lips, elegant creams and red plum lipstick.

Compared with the current social atmosphere, it is a bit out of the ordinary, but it is very eye-catching.

The female family members of the Lou family have become the living signs of the product, and those who have tried it are also full of praise.The creams and lipsticks were sold very quickly almost as soon as they were launched, and even some foreigners came to line up to buy them.

Master Li San smiled from ear to ear.

"Third Uncle, where is this?" Li Jin said, "Look, the good times are yet to come. But you have to be careful. The soap factory is a lesson from the past. You must pay attention to the safety of the factory."

"I know." Master Li San nodded, and suddenly slapped his head, "I forgot to tell you before, the big girl's marriage is settled, it's the Xing family."

"The Xing family? Aren't they going to retire?"

"Who knows what they think." Master Li San paused for a moment, then continued: "Also, Jincheng is going to work in the northern government. I heard it was recommended by the Xing family."

"Third Uncle, is this news true?"

"Can I still lie to you?" Master Li San sneered, "You haven't seen your great aunt, she can't wait to walk with her nostrils up these two days."

Hearing Master Li San's description, Li Jinyan couldn't help laughing, this is indeed the character of the eldest lady.However, Li Jincheng is going to work in the northern government?

Thinking of the relationship between Marshal Lou and President Sima, Li Jinyan couldn't help frowning.
