Chapter 640: Monkey in Clothes
"Director Yuan, it's awkward to talk about money. If you're like that, I won't bring it with me next time I go back."
Zhang Chengxian pretended to be angry.
"Okay, I take it back, Chief Zhang. Thank you very much."
Yuan Ye said readily.
"That's pretty much it."
Zhang Chengxian immediately smiled and looked very happy.
The three of them drank tea and chatted for a while. Yuan Ye saw that it was almost time for them to finish their conversation. Zhang Chengxian had also finished most of the tea in his cup and it was almost time for the show to end. He stood up and said:
"You guys keep chatting, I have something to do at the Iwai Mansion."
"It's time for me to go."
Zhang Chengxian also stood up. He saw that Yuan Ye had drunk a lot of tea. He knew that his goal had been achieved and there was no need to stay here any longer. Now he just had to wait for a day or two for the poisonous insect to enter Yuan Shikai's brain and make him completely crazy.
The three men walked out of the office. Zhang Chengxian took Chai Ruhai to his office to get tea. After Chai Ruhai left, he locked the small porcelain bottle hidden in his sleeve in a drawer, ready to use it when the time was right. The remaining poisonous insects in it were enough to drive a person crazy.
Yuan Ye went downstairs and drove straight to Yanjing Mansion. On the way, he was thinking, is the poisonous insect that Zhang Chengxian got really effective? In two or three days, we should know. If he really goes crazy, it is his own fault. He will hurt himself instead of others.
An idea suddenly came to his mind. If Zhang Chengxian really went crazy after two or three days, wouldn't there still be a poisonous insect in his small porcelain bottle? Where would he put this small porcelain bottle?
Ai Ye felt that it was more likely to be kept in the office, and he would find a way to get it when the time comes. He had already decided to use the insect on one person, and that person was Xiang Shoushi.
In order to make Xiang Shoushi drink the tea containing the poisonous insect, he can only rely on Hu Deping. Hu Deping is now Xiang Shoushi's subordinate and can easily find a suitable opportunity to take action.
The most important thing is that Hu Deping will not be exposed, because Xiang Shoushi has gone crazy and people may think that he is sick. The cause of the disease cannot be found at all, and it is even more impossible to think that it is caused by the insect.
The only uncertainty now is whether this insect is effective, and this has to be verified by Zhang Chengxian.
Yuan Ye quickly arrived at the Iwai Mansion. As soon as he entered the small building, he began to listen to the movements in Iwai Yuichi's office. In the office, Iwai Yuichi was talking to someone. Yuan Ye did not know this person and did not know who he was.
I only heard Iwai Yuichi say:
"Ogasa-kun, you need to familiarize yourself with the job as soon as possible. I have high hopes for you."
"Mr. Iwai, I've understood what you're saying. Hirota's team has now arrived in Yamashiro. I'll stay in touch with them and pass on your orders."
Yuan Ye thought to himself that the Hirota team had already arrived in Yamashiro. It seemed that Iwai Yuichi trusted Ogasa very much and entrusted him with such an important matter.
Yuan Ye walked to the door, knocked, and after hearing "Come in", he pushed the door open and walked into the office.
When Iwai Yuichi saw that it was Yuan Ye who came in, he walked over with a smile on his face. The man named Xiao Li also followed him over. Yuan Ye saw that he was of medium build and looked to be about 30 years old.
Iwai Yuichi introduced him:
"This is the Yuan Shikai I told you about."
Ogasa immediately bowed and said:
"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Please give me your guidance in the future."
He knew that Mr. Iwai admired this Chinese man. On the way to Shanghai, Iwai Yuichi had told him about him. He was a student of Shanghai Mayor Su Xiwu, the director of the Municipal Government's Political Security Department, and one of Su Xiwu's closest confidants. He was also a member of the Iwai Residence, a special commissioner stationed at No. 76. He was also very skilled in calligraphy and chess, and Mr. Iwai was completely impressed by him.
The most surprising thing is that Tokugawa Mitsuko, the eldest daughter of the top aristocratic Tokugawa family, fell in love with him and fell in love with him, and Miss Mitsuko's cousin, General Kagesa, also admired him.
So when he saw Yuan Shikai, he did not dare to be negligent and his attitude was still very respectful.
Iwai Yuichi introduced Yuan Ye again:
"His name is Ogasa Ichiro, and he's the assistant I brought with me from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Hirota-kun has to leave for a while for some business, so he'll take over Hirota-kun's job from now on."
Yuan Ye thought, no wonder he had never seen this person before, it turned out that he brought him from Japan. It seemed that since his safe was stolen, he no longer dared to trust the people in Iwai Mansion.
Yuan Ye immediately bowed and said:
"Ogasa-kun, nice to meet you. I hope you can give me some pointers and we hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."
Ichiro Ogasa was surprised by his authentic Japanese. He didn't expect his Japanese to be so good. If Mr. Iwai hadn't told him that he was Chinese, he really wouldn't have believed it and would have thought he was a local.
"Shi Kaijun, your Japanese is so good. You are the first Chinese person I have met who speaks Japanese so well."
Iwai Yuichi laughed and said:
"Xiao Lijun, I forgot to tell you that Shi Kaijun is not only very good at calligraphy and Go, but also has a strong talent for languages. It is said that he is proficient in several languages.
Shi Kaijun, am I right?"
Yuan Ye said modestly:
"Mr. Iwai, you're overpraising me. I only know a little bit."
He knew that it was Su Xiwu who told Iwai Yuichi that he was proficient in several foreign languages.
"Shi Kaijun is truly admirable."
Ichiro Ogasa couldn't help but admire Yuan Shikai. He thought that Yuan Shikai was indeed a talented person. No wonder so many people admired him. He must have a good relationship with him in the future.
Yuan Ye could see that Ogasa Ichiro had a good impression of him, and this was also proven by what he overheard. Since he wanted to have a good relationship with him, it was just what he wanted, and he could make use of it to make something of it.
At this time, Iwai Yuichi said:
"Mr. Shi Kai, I invited you here because I have something to give you."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the study and came out of it soon with a beautifully bound book in his hand. He handed the book to Yuan Ye and said with a smile:
"This is my calligraphy appreciation collection published in Japan. It has received a good response since its publication, and you have made a great contribution to this.
I sent the manuscript to the publishing house, and the editor praised your appreciation article highly. Without changing a single word, they immediately sent it to print. This book, which embodies your hard work, is given to you as a souvenir.
"Thank you, Mr. Iwai. Actually, my contribution is very limited. If it weren't for the excellence of your work, my appreciation article would be useless no matter how good it is."
Yuan Ye took the book and opened the cover. There was an inscription by Iwai Yuichi on the title page.
"Green mountains and clear waters, what do I have? I cover the sky and the earth without any intention. Dedicated to Mr. Yuan Shikai."
Yuan Ye smiled and said:
"This is a line from a poem written by Mr. Natsume Soseki. The artistic conception is very lofty. The eternal, pure, and worldly-transcendent state that Mr. Natsume pursued is actually very difficult to achieve. Only when you immerse yourself in calligraphy can you have the opportunity to achieve it.
I think this is also the profound meaning behind Mr. Iwai's poem."
"Mr. Shi Kai, you are indeed a man of quick wit. You immediately understood what I meant. Mr. Natsume is an author I like very much. The artistic conception he pursues is indeed difficult to achieve. You and I are both busy with worldly affairs. Only when we immerse ourselves in calligraphy can we achieve this state of selflessness."
He mentioned this poem out of inspiration. I originally thought that Yuan Shikai was so young that he might not understand the deep meaning of this poem. I didn't expect him to be so smart and knowledgeable. He not only knew that this was a poem by Natsume Soseki, but also immediately understood the deep meaning of this poem. It can be seen that this person is extremely knowledgeable, and I can't help but admire him even more.
Yuan Ye sneered in his heart, thinking that these Japanese devils were really perverted. On the one hand, they were committing despicable acts of burning, killing, raping and looting in China, worse than animals, and on the other hand, they were pretending to be cultured and hypocritically pursuing a noble realm that was out of this world. They were as ridiculous as a monkey in clothes.
A monkey without humanity is just an animal even if it wears human clothes.
