Qiao Youzhi calculated it carefully and found it flawless. Even if the investigation team came, they would not be able to find out anything. To be on the safe side, he borrowed ten soldiers from Yang Yongjiang and hid them in the nearby woods.

The investigation team was led by a major named Will. Also coming was an acquaintance of Qiao Youzhi, Lieutenant Hughes. Some time ago, he commanded soldiers to ambush Yang Yongjiang. Qiao Youzhi took his pistol and smoothed the relationship for him.

During this period, Lieutenant Hughes lived in good conditions, gained weight, and chatted and laughed happily with Qiao Youzhi.

Considering that Hughes was a member of the investigation team, Qiao Youzhi returned the pistol to him.

Hughes refused to accept it: "Major, this is a gift for you, a testimony of our friendship."

Qiao Youzhi looked at his face, which clearly didn't mean that, and shoved the gun into his hand.

Doss accepted it, and a thought came to his mind: "For a man like George to return the gun to me voluntarily, there must be something wrong. I have to investigate it carefully."

Genis and Dortmund brought back more than a dozen bodies. Each one of them was pale and thin, severely malnourished, and had severe frostbite on their hands.

Major Weir saw no problem with that.

Hughes undressed a corpse and found several scars on its chest.

Qiao Youzhi explained: "This shows that these people are veterans with rich combat experience."

Hughes unbuttoned the men's pants and found no loincloths. Doss was stunned: Could this bastard have lied to me?

When they took off their shoes, they found problems: their feet were all blown off, some were frozen, and the damage was so severe that it was almost unrecognizable.

Hughes became suspicious and suggested going to the battle scene.

Qiao Youzhi agreed readily and said to himself: You'd better cover your face so that Yang Yongjiang's people don't recognize you.

Major Weir led a group of people to the scene. The bodies had not been dealt with yet and were frozen like stone.

Major Weir disdained to check it himself. He thought that this task was a trick with ulterior motives. It involved someone who had made a contribution. Some people couldn't stand it and had to conduct an investigation. Would it be useful? Since Hughes proposed it, let him check it.

Qiao Youzhi and Dortmund accompanied Hughes. The situation was dangerous, so Qiao Youzhi did not let Genis follow.

During the time Hughes was in Dongjing, he met a Japanese woman, and through the Japanese woman he got to know many Japanese businessmen. They entertained Doss warmly every day and hoped that Doss would work in their company in the future. Doss agreed in a daze, and was looking forward to completing his military service so that he could become a boss in Japan and count money every day.

There was another person named Garcia in the army group headquarters, who was also bribed by the Japanese. It was this guy who revealed the secret that led Qiao Youzhi to bring in Japanese people such as Nakamoto.

Hughes checked carefully and collected some unfired bullets.

Qiao Youzhi stood aside and admired his performance, while Dot and his soldiers were very impatient.

Yang Yongjiang's soldiers in the woods stared at everyone who came into their sight.

Hughes was recognized, and Yang Yongjiang's soldiers were vindictive: damn the Americans. When they saw Qiao Youzhi, they kept knocking their helmets on their heads. The leading veteran put down his binoculars and ordered, "Shoot, kill that bastard."

Hughes found many suspicious points and was about to take out his camera to take a picture. As soon as his hand was on the shutter, a bullet pierced his chest and the camera flew to the side.

Qiao Youzhi pretended to stand in front of him, knocked him to the ground, and took away the ivory-gripped pistol. Dortmund was attacked at the same time and several soldiers were injured.

American soldiers fired wildly and fired two mortars to cover Will and Qiao Youzhi's escape.

Major Weir was nearly beaten to death. He returned to the barracks in shock. When he heard that Hughes was dead, he said, "He deserved to die, too."

Qiao Youzhi analyzed that the enemy came to steal the corpse, and we happened to go to the scene and were attacked.

Weir believes this to be the case.

Soon the good news came. Lieutenant Dort's treatment was restored, and Lieutenant Genis was awarded the Silver Star Medal for meritorious service after being punished some time ago.

Everybody was happy.

Five days later, Genis returned to China. Before leaving, he expressed his gratitude to Qiao Youzhi. Qiao Youzhi shook the hand of the God of Wealth Second Lieutenant and said something shameless: "Second Lieutenant, don't forget me when you become rich in the future."

Genis said seriously: "Major, don't worry, I won't forget the equipment of that factory."

Qiao Youzhi was just waiting for him to say this.

In fact, I have no idea whether these business tycoons will admit it or not. Even if they don’t, what can I do?

After Genis left, Qiao Youzhi felt a little empty and had no energy to do anything.

Genis returned home with honor. He still had a few months left in his military service, but that didn't matter. He toured around his hometown, attended various cocktail parties, and lingered among all kinds of beauties. It was simply a heavenly life.

About half a month later, Genis' uncle Ed called him home for dinner, actually to discuss his future. His family had already arranged for him to go to their own company for training first, and then run for city councilor in a few years.

Gurnis had no choice.

After dinner, Guinness knocked on his uncle's door and discussed with him what he had promised Qiao Youzhi.

Genis' uncle Ed is a popular candidate for the next mayor and the person in charge of the family.

"Genius, I can see that you are worried about something." Ed spoke first. He had high hopes for his nephew Genius.

"Uncle, I want to tell you something." Genis was not sure whether his uncle wanted to listen or whether he had time.

"Go ahead."

Genis told about the agreement he had made with Chief George: "Uncle, I met a Major George on the Peninsula. I told him that I hoped to get a medal, and he promised to help me. He did it, and I promised him that after the success, I would give him a set of factory equipment to help him develop his business."

Ed understood what his nephew meant: "You want to keep your promise?"

"Yes uncle."

"Do you know this Sir George?"

"He is Admiral Mai's favorite."

Hearing Admiral Mai, Ed laughed, and made no secret of his contempt for Admiral Mai: "He is just a little kid who loves to show off. Besides, he will soon lose his power. No one will get away with going against the commander-in-chief."

Genis was not interested in the grudges among the top leaders: “Uncle, I want to give you some equipment.”

Ed became serious: "Genius, first of all, the equipment is not yours, you have no right to give it to anyone. In addition, it is war time now, the equipment is in production and cannot be stopped, how can you give it to others?"

"But I promised."

"Hahaha, Genis, you are still young, you have to fulfill your promises. When I run for mayor, I have to fulfill all the promises I made. If that's the case, why am I running for mayor? I will lose all my family's property. Think about it, kid, why did he promise you? It's all about interests. You have to weigh this kind of exchange of interests. Is it worth it? To put it bluntly, is there anything to gain?"

Genis left his uncle's room dejectedly, and had to admit that what his uncle said was very realistic.
