Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 654: Waste, stupid, and incompetent!

After a period of maintenance, the environment of Jinmen Restaurant has improved and the layout has become more reasonable.

The outer area is the ordinary area. Some small business owners who want to experience what the restaurant that Tianjin’s dignitaries like is like can pay to enter this area.

Next is the members area.

Compared to the ordinary area outside, this place is more private.

There are underground plumbing pipes and even ice jars in the corridors, making it warm in winter and cool in summer.

The innermost area is not open to the public and is reserved for Lin Ze.

You don't have to go through the main gate to arrive at this place. There is a special passage leading to the side of the restaurant.

It's a one-stop shop for eating, drinking and entertainment. Even the girls who hand out bath towels are carefully selected. If they don't look good, they won't be accepted if they are not clean, or if they are unreliable.

"Xiao Jiang, you built this place very well!"

When Xiao Jiang Dagui heard Lin Ze praising him, he couldn't stop smiling.

When they arrived, Yoshimura Yuta went to discuss business with Xiao Jiang, and Lin Ze went to his room to take a bath and relax.

When Lin Ze finished taking a bath, the two of them hadn't finished their conversation yet, so Lin Ze simply left first.

As soon as I returned to the Lin Mansion, I received a call.

It turned out to be Wang Kemin calling.

How come? This old fox has been avoiding me even when we meet since he was blackmailed by me, so why would he call me on his own initiative?

"Hey, President Wang, why did you think of calling me? Are you going to give me some financial support again? Haha, you're being polite, but I'm a little tight on money lately."

Wang Kemin on the other side almost fainted, gritting his teeth and saying, "Shengmin, something happened, something serious!"

Lin Ze’s first reaction was that something big had happened in Peiping.

But think about it, it shouldn't be like this. From Matsuzaki to Kitahara Ransuke, from Lao Gao to Jiao Zhenguo, not to mention Director Niu's spies all over Peking, if something really happened, how could it be Wang Kemin who called first?

"President Wang, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. What happened?"

Wang Kemin was furious. "That pretty boy is up to something evil! He wants to bring something back to the old capital and invite celebrities from all over the country to attend. Shengmin, we in North China need to come up with a set of rules!"

"Baby face?"

“It’s Wang Jingwei!”

Lin Ze reacted.

Counting the days, that dog traitor is indeed going to officially establish the "National Government".

He is quite good at waging struggles. The reason why the Japs go to so much trouble to support a puppet is because they want to fight for the legitimacy of governance.

Now, he is going to return to the old capital, which means he is announcing to the world that he is the orthodox one and the one in Shancheng is the Western one.

In terms of seniority, contribution and popularity, how am I inferior to that person?

Even in terms of appearance, I don’t know how I am better than him!

"President, if he wants to return to the old capital, then he should return to the old capital. The old capital is Nanjing, and he won't come to Peking. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Chairman Wang stamped his feet anxiously, "Hey! Shengmin, why don't you understand? He has to make this a reality. No matter where the administrative committee is, they all have to listen to him in name only!"

Lin Ze knew what Wang Kemin meant. The old man felt it was quite difficult to fight that traitor dog, so he wanted to drag him along to join in.

As for why he came to me...

Needless to say, nowadays Master Lin is a figure who can shake the circle of traitors with just a stomp of his foot!

If a person who holds real power in Tianjin expressed opposition to Wang Jingwei's actions, many people would probably wonder whether Wang Jingwei is so worthy of support.

Although he knew what Wang Keming was thinking, Lin Ze continued to play dumb.

"President, I am from the headquarters. No matter whether the board of directors listens to me or not, what does it have to do with me?"

"Shengmin, you can't say that. It's true that you are a member of the Administrative Committee, but what about Gao Shengping? What about your Coordination Bureau? Let's not talk about other things first. If that guy really takes control of the local Administrative Committees, what if he replaces the heads of the local police departments? What if he controls our funds?"

Lin Ze just remained silent and did not answer.

Chairman Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Shengmin, it's not easy for you to open up the situation in Tianjin. I told them a few days ago that Shengmin and our North China Administrative Committee are of the same blood. You will definitely need a lot of money in Tianjin. The money I gave you last time was just an appetizer. Although the Administrative Committee is not rich, we can squeeze out a few hundred thousand a month. Even if we use it to pay subsidies to the brothers in the Coordination Bureau, it will be fine! But if Wang Jingwei seizes my power, the money will be gone!"

Hey, I won’t be sleepy anymore if you say that!

Lin Ze asked, "President, what do you want to do? He is far away in Jinling, and I can't slap him twice. Should I scold him in the newspaper? That would be too painless."

Seeing Lin Ze relent, President Wang hurriedly said, "I won't let you hit or scold him. Shengmin, you have a lot of face, I just want you to set an example. Whether it's a return ceremony or any other ceremony, our people from North China will not participate! I will be responsible for greeting my people, and you will be responsible for greeting your people. How do you think?"

"If that's the case, it's easy to explain. Well, it's nothing more than selling face. These days, when we can barely afford to eat, what's the point of saving face?"

Chairman Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Shengmin, don't worry. You will definitely get the money. I won't trouble you. I will arrange for someone to contact Director Niu right away!"

When I hung up the phone, it was already dark.

Lin Ze packed up his things and went downstairs to go home.

Since the beginning of spring, rhubarb flowers have gradually become available.

In those days, rhubarb was not as precious as it is in later generations. Tianjin is close to the sea and has abundant fishery products, so the price is even cheaper and ordinary people can afford it.

Every spring, large schools of yellow croakers in the southern Yellow Sea migrate northward and form a fishing season in the Bohai Bay. This is the best time for fishermen who make a living by fishing.

By this time, the fish stalls were full of big yellow flowers.

Compared with yellow croaker, there is another kind of sashimi fish that is even more precious.

Whether steamed or fried, it is delicious.

The small kitchen of Lin Mansion bought the best sashimi fish, and piled the diced fat, winter bamboo shoots, black fungus, and soaked shiitake mushrooms on a plate. Then they placed the fish on top and steamed it. They also coated a few smaller fish with batter and deep-fried them, then sprinkled some pepper and salt on them and served them as a side dish.

We started eating as soon as we got home and listening to the girls talking and laughing was also a way to relax after work.

Boss Dai, who is far away in the mountain city, cannot enjoy this kind of leisure time.

"Useless! Stupid! Incompetent!"

Everyone at the Military Control Commission headquarters in Luojiawan was silent.

Boss Dai was angry for the whole afternoon after he came back from meeting that person.

Needless to say, that person must have scolded Boss Dai again.

Mao Dafeng paced anxiously in the corridor, looking at his watch from time to time.

Seeing that it was getting dark, he could no longer bear it and rushed into the telecommunications room.

"How is it going? Is there any news from Jinling?"
