Quartermasters can also fight the devils
Chapter 30 Drinking coffee and watching drama
After finishing his dinner, Zhang Wenwu went out for a walk to help digest his food.
In the past, I only heard and saw Japanese spies in TV dramas. The Japanese spies in the dramas all had low IQs and were completely helpless. They were fooled around and shouted "Baga" every day. It was so refreshing to watch them.
But when I personally experienced that era and heard such things with my own ears, I realized that the Japanese were not fools who could only shout "Baga". They really did everything they could to achieve their goal of occupying China.
Zhang Wenwu was walking around, thinking about something. When he passed a coffee shop, he couldn't help but stop and said, "Oh my god, what a beautiful lady. She's my type."
This is a coffee shop called "Paris Fragrance". It is decorated in a very Western style. The side facing the street is equipped with large glass windows, so part of the interior can be seen clearly from the outside.
Zhang Wenwu walked into the cafe and sat at the second table by the window. He called the waiter, ordered a cup of coffee, and pretended to tilt his head to look at the pedestrians and scenery outside the window, but in fact he was constantly stealing glances at a lady sitting across the table from him.
This lady has short hair and is wearing a white shirt, brown trousers, and a pair of white high heels. She looks like a real queen.
Judging from the height of his sitting posture, his height should be over 1.68 meters. Combined with his three-dimensional facial features, Zhang Wenwu was amazed.
With his modern aesthetic sense and his ability to read all kinds of short videos and photoshopped photos, he couldn't help but exclaim: How beautiful.
Zhang Wenwu was just appreciating the show. In that era, there were really no entertainment activities, and he was not interested in the entertainment activities of people in that era. He could only stroll around the streets, look at young girls and wives, and feast his eyes.
As for him really doing something, he didn't have the guts. In this era, people's thinking was still quite feudal. He wasn't a scoundrel or anything like that, so he couldn't do such a thing. In Zhang Wenwu's words, I don't think it's against the law.
Opposite the beauty sat a man with shiny waxed hair, a big gold watch, and a yellow and white checkered shirt. Zhang Wenwu looked at him and cursed inwardly, "Good cabbages are being eaten by pigs, ah."
The man with the hair wax was telling a story with a cheerful look on his face and saliva flying everywhere. It was obvious that he was in a state of excitement. He did not notice at all that the beautiful woman opposite him was frowning, not saying a word, and looking at him with disgust.
Zhang Wenwu took a look and thought, "Oh, this is different from what I expected at the beginning. It seems that the man with hair wax is trying hard to pursue this lady, but it seems that the hope value is negative. But it doesn't matter. It won't delay my watching the show. If there is no TV series to watch, I will watch the live version and treat it as a romantic drama in the Republic of China.
Zhang Wenwu quietly leaned towards their table. He had to listen to what they were saying. He couldn't just watch the picture without any sound. That would be so boring.
"Lina, tell me, that idiot is really funny. When I think about it now, I feel so funny. Haha." After the man with hair wax finished speaking, he laughed exaggeratedly.
It’s over. I didn’t hear what was said before. I should have come to “change the channel” earlier, Zhang Wenwu complained in his heart.
Seeing that the lady opposite did not respond, the wax man continued, "Lina, look at those idiots. It's useless to make trouble. I just need to use a little trick and they will be helpless. They can only go back to the factory and work obediently."
The lady called Lina frowned even more after hearing what the wax man said, and said with disgust: "Mr. Chen, is this what you came to me to talk about? If there is nothing else, I will go back first. I have something else to do tomorrow."
The man with the hair wax only then realized that the lady opposite him looked unhappy, and quickly said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Lina, I certainly didn't come to you to talk about what happened just now. I just talked about those poor guys for fun, don't mind it."
Lina became a little impatient: "Then Mr. Chen, just say whatever you want to say, it's getting late."
Seeing that Lina was about to leave, the hair wax man hurriedly tried to persuade her to stay: "Lina, listen to me, I came all the way from Shanghai to see you. I haven't seen you for a long time. I came to see how you are doing and whether you need my help. If you want to follow my advice, you should come back to Shanghai with me. My family has recently cooperated with the Japanese and our business has expanded a lot. It's not that I can't support you. Why don't you consider my..."
Before the wax man could finish, Lina interrupted him angrily: "Chen Mingzhang, please don't worry about my affairs in the future. I am living a good life. Don't come to me in the future."
Hearing what Lina said, the wax man Chen Mingzhang leaned back in his chair, turned into a frivolous look and said: "Miss Kong Lina, I also want to remind you, first of all, your parents agreed to our master's proposal of marriage, your family's business went bankrupt, and it was my father who borrowed money to pay off the creditors, and then, your parents died in an accident, and it was our family who paid for their funeral. It can be said that if you were not my fiancée, would our family be able to help you so much? Now that I have come to this, I will make it clear that I have given you four years. Go and ask around. I, Chen Mingzhang, can get any woman in Shanghai, and any woman can make me so concerned. My patience is also limited. This time I came here to inform you that you must marry me. People should know how to repay kindness."
Zhang Wenwu's interest increased when he heard this. It turned out that there was such a plot. Chen Mingzhang was blackmailing and forcing marriage. However, if the plot continued like this, he would probably be slapped in the face. Kong Lina was a new woman with her own ideas, and she would not be constrained by feudal marriage at all.
At this time, Kong Lina was obviously trembling with anger, pointing at Chen Mingzhang and cursing: "Chen Mingzhang, you bastard. Don't you know how my family's business went bankrupt? It was your father who colluded with the Japanese to deliberately suppress the price, which led to the bankruptcy of my family's business. It's just that your father hid it too well at the time, and our parents were deceived. As for my parents' accidental death later, I think it was also due to your father and son's scheme. You want me to marry you? Dream on. Even if I die, I will never marry you."
Chen Mingzhang, the hair wax man, was not angry. He took out a piece of paper from his arms and waved it in front of Kong Lina, "Ms. Kong Lina, this is not up to you. This piece of paper was written by your parents before they died. It contains a document of borrowing money from our family. It also clearly states that if you don't pay back the money, you have to marry into our Chen family. No matter where this matter goes, our Chen family is right."
When Kong Lina saw Chen Mingzhang holding out the IOU, she became even angrier: "Chen Mingzhang, you are shameless. It was your family that framed and deceived my parents, which led to the signing of this agreement with your family. I still say the same thing. If you want me to marry you, forget it. At worst, I will die and leave your Chen family penniless."
Chen Mingzhang's face darkened, as if his patience had been completely worn out. He said harshly: "Okay, if you don't want to marry me, then pay back the money your parents borrowed. Since our two families are old friends, I'll charge you a lower interest rate. Just pay back a total of 100,000 yuan. What do you think? Don't say that I don't care about our friendship. We have two options, you can choose." He had to give in. It would be too inappropriate to lose both his money and his life. If he could get the money, he would give up Kong Lina. Although it was a pity, money was more important to him. With money, he would not be afraid of not having women.
Kong Lina stared viciously at Chen Mingzhang, who had a smirk on his face, and clenched her fists tightly under the table.
Tsk tsk, when Zhang Wenwu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh at the fickleness of the world.
He could figure this matter out even with his butt. It must be that Chen Mingzhang's family had set their eyes on Kong Lina's business, so they teamed up with the Japanese and set up a trap to cause the Kong family's business to fail. Then they pretended to be kind and not only bought the Kong family's factory at a low price, but also pretended to lend the other party some money in the name of help in order to win the Kong family's favor.
And this Chen Mingzhang had long set his eyes on the daughter of the Kong family, so he used sweet words to deceive Kong Lina's parents who were already at the end of their rope. Kong Lina's parents also saw that their family was already penniless, and thought that if their daughter could marry into the Chen family, she would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, so they agreed to such a ridiculous IOU agreement, which was equivalent to mortgaging their daughter to borrow money.
As for the accidental death of Kong Lina's parents, it was most likely that the Chen family saw that all their goals had been achieved and were afraid that the truth would be exposed and affect their reputation, so they killed them.
But Zhang Wenwu didn't plan to do anything. He just had a Buddhist mentality and came to watch the "TV series". He was just a spectator. Besides, he didn't have 100,000 yuan. He could only cheer for the beauty in his heart!
Kong Lina took a deep breath and said to Chen Mingzhang: "Okay, I will pay you back, but you have to give me some time."
"Okay, how long do you think it will take?" Chen Mingzhang said nonchalantly.
Kong Lina thought for a moment and said, "Three years."
Chen Mingzhang laughed out loud: "Kong Lina, are you kidding me? Three years, I can only give you three months at most."
Kong Lina also knew that Chen Mingzhang would not agree, so she began to bargain: "No, at least two years."
After the final bargaining, the final time was set at six months. At that time, Chen Mingzhang would come to Kong Lina again. If Kong Lina still didn't pay by then, she would have to agree to marry Chen Mingzhang. In the end, Kong Lina agreed. She had no choice.
Seeing that the job was done, Chen Mingzhang no longer wasted time, he stood up and said to Kong Lina with a smile: "Lina, it's settled. You know, no matter where you go, our Chen family has the ability to find you. I'll wait for you to marry me in six months. Hahahaha". After that, he walked out of the cafe with a smile.
Kong Lina sat there alone, biting her lips with a depressed look.
Zhang Wenwu saw that this was still a "serial drama" and it seemed that he would not have the chance to see the ending. It was a pity that the beauty should have negotiated the terms for a year. By then, when the war broke out and everything was in chaos, it was not certain that he would find a place to hide. However, this was none of his business.
I also have to concentrate on military supplies and logistics so that I can contribute to killing more Japanese invaders.
Seeing Kong Lina also walked out of the coffee shop, Zhang Wenwu sat for a while, and found that there was nothing to watch, so he paid the bill and went to his brother's house. Tomorrow, he still had to go to the military supply warehouse.
(Don’t get me wrong, this is not the protagonist’s love story, it’s just to introduce the story line later. What everyone needs to pay attention to is this hair wax man.)
