Fengxian Jiangshan

() Yada and Miki were a little stunned when they saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy put a stack of things in front of them, but after they noticed what it was, the complexion on their faces turned ugly.

It turned out that there were six or seven newspapers, both Chinese and foreign.Yada picked it up and flipped through it. Every newspaper had the news that the Japanese ronin smashed and robbed the grain store in a conspicuous position. Several newspapers were full of pictures and texts. The huge photos showed the Japanese ronin holding a samurai sword and showing their teeth and claws. They hacked and killed the grain store clerk.There is also a close-up of it, which is a ferocious Japanese himself holding up a bright big knife, and slashing at a twelve or thirteen-year-old child.

Various newspapers have vividly described this kind of atrocity, and on the Chinese newspapers, they have focused on describing the unscrupulous and inhumaneness of Japan. Without exception, they all recalled the 21 articles not long ago, saying that this is Japan With the intention of implementing Article 21 and annexing the entire Northeast, all compatriots should take action to resist Japanese goods and safeguard sovereignty.

Foreign newspapers, on the other hand, say that Japan is a beast mixed into the civilized world. They are using barbarism and violence to destroy Fengtian's basic business rules, and using despicable means to infringe the interests of European and American businessmen. They wrote ironically The businessmen in Europe and the United States in the three eastern provinces did not lose to Japanese businessmen, but to Japanese ronin.

After seeing these newspapers, Yada and Miki's complexions immediately turned livid, and Zhang Tinglan was extremely satisfied with the effect.

When taking over the Four Seas Food Company, Zhang Tinglan expected that the Japanese would react and fight back. If they want to deal with the unscrupulous Japanese, any peace of mind will only get them to make progress. Therefore, they must directly defeat the Japanese attempt. Naturally, Zhang Tinglan I thought of using the magic weapon of public opinion.

He first contacted Fred, hoping to let him help find a few foreign journalists. Fred and Zhang Tinglan had long been an alliance of interests, so he naturally took active actions.And this timing is really good. The popularity of Japan’s Article 21 has not gone down. All the powers have seen Japan’s ambitions for China. They are quite dissatisfied with Japan. These newspapers, as the mouthpieces of the powers, are naturally happy It is unlucky to ri himself.

Therefore, several newspaper offices were quickly contacted, and everything was being prepared in secret.Zhang Tinglan contacted these newspapers when Ono rushed over with Japanese ronin to make trouble.They sent special personnel to take pictures, and then quickly withdrew them and compiled them into manuscripts.

Of course, in the fight, Zhang Tinglan's guards had the upper hand, but this didn't bother those veterans in the press. They chose some angles that seemed to be dominated by Ri herself, and at the same time made some adjustments on the cropping. With a little effort, the scene where the Japanese ronin were bullying others and the grain store clerks were forced to rise up and resist was quickly created.

As for the photo of Ri himself stabbing a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, it was actually taken by Zhang Tingshu when he poked Ono with a bamboo pole.After these photos came out, Zhang Tinglan was also very surprised. No wonder people regard journalists as the uncrowned kings. They can make a 180-degree turn in whatever matter comes into their hands. In this regard, current reporters are not as good as their counterparts in later generations. not bad.

"Scheming, despicable and shameless." After reading these newspapers, Miki became extremely angry. He pointed at Zhang Tinglan and said loudly: "How dare you manipulate public opinion and maliciously slander the Great Japanese Empire, you will be retaliated !"

Zhang Tinglan squinted at Miki, who was losing his mind, and said, "Mr. Miki, you think too highly of our abilities. Can we buy so many newspapers from Westerners? I even suspect that it is you Japanese yourself." We have offended people, we detained the ronin who made trouble, there is still room for maneuver in this matter, if you release him now, it will be more confirmed that your bullying behavior will have a very negative impact on Japan's image."

"You are making unreasonable words. The great powers have very good communication. How can we have conflicts? You are all behind the scenes."

"Mr. Miki's words are really interesting. You fought the Russians ten years ago, and you fought the Germans in Shandong just last year. Isn't this a contradiction?"

Zhang Tinglan unceremoniously exposed Miki's lies, and he was also at a loss for words. Although Miki is sinister and cunning, he is still a businessman after all. Seeing that his actions have caused such a big disturbance, it may even affect Japan. Image, he is also a little scared.

On the other hand, Consul General Yata was very indifferent, and he smiled coldly: "Do you think that a few newspapers can frighten the Great Japanese Empire? You are delusional. Mr. Zhang, I think you know that Great Japan is very friendly to friends." , but never show mercy to the enemy!"

Facing Yada's threat, Zhang Zuolin was completely calm, "Mr. Yada, Mr. Zhang has always been willing to get along with Japan. The key to becoming friends depends on you. As long as you respect each other, you are good friends. On the contrary Zhang is not a face-to-face either!"

Yada originally thought that with his status as consul general, Zhang Zuolin would be able to scare Zhang Zuolin as soon as he stepped forward, but unexpectedly, he got frustrated and left Zhang Zuolin's residence with a flick of his sleeves.

Lao Zhang watched them leave the mansion, and touched his bald head: "Ting Lan, your seventh uncle offended Ri himself. If your calculations don't work, we will be in a difficult situation!"

In fact, Zhang Tinglan also raised his heart. Japan's power in Fengtian is deeply rooted and its minions are rich. He is not sure whether it can suppress Japan's limelight.But at this juncture, he can only cheer himself up: "Seventh Master, if we do the math with our minds, we have a much better chance of winning!"

Lao Zhang thought about it again and asked, "Ting Lan, do you think we need to take some action at this time?"

Zhang Tinglan shook his head hastily, "Compared to Japan, we are weak and weak, just like a donkey in Guizhou. The more we move, the more we will expose our flaws. The best way is to stand still!"

"Aren't you afraid to sit and wait to die?"

"Hey, we're just sitting and waiting for our opponents to die!"

Lao Zhang nodded, and then said very proudly: "Ting Lan, since we have done it, we are not afraid of failure! In the worst case, I will become the king of the mountain again. With tens of thousands of guns, I can mess around anywhere!" Lao Zhang said this The words are not only comforting Zhang Tinglan, but also comforting himself. Zhang Zuolin has gone through countless trials in his life, and he has overcome them all. It depends on whether he can overcome the barrier in front of him.

Yada and Miki just got into the rickshaw and came to the intersection. They met a group of students head-on. They walked over from a distance holding a banner. Shouting the slogan of boycotting Japanese goods.

Seeing this scene, Yada and Miki's faces turned pale. They took the initiative to avoid the parade and hurried back to the Consulate General of Japan. As soon as they arrived at the consulate, someone came to deliver a letter. School strikes to varying degrees occurred, and students took to the streets to demonstrate.

Moreover, some businessmen also joined in, and the momentum was very fierce. Like the scenes exposed in the 21st article, the students pointed their finger at Japan.What's more terrible is that many newspapers have joined the ranks of denouncing the Japanese ronin. They have listed the general behavior of the Japanese in recent years, unceremoniously accusing the Japanese of wolfish ambitions, and exposed their hypocritical masks.

"Mr. Consul General, these things are all Zhang Zuolin's insidious tricks. The Great Japan cannot compromise with a small warlord. I think decisive measures should be taken."

"Hmph, Mr. Miki, you are very smart in business, but you are an outsider in this kind of thing. Zhang Zuolin is a Qiuba bandit. Can he buy the newspapers of the great powers? Can he manipulate Fengtian's academic circle? You think too highly of this We are now a small warlord, and we have met a stronger opponent."

While the two of them were discussing, a servant ran over in a panic: "Mr. Consul General, Bei Jing has sent a telegram!"
