Sun Chengping arrived at the Six Nations Hotel in advance. As the Chinese manager of the Bank of Japan, this guy had done a lot of unethical and shameful things for the Japanese over the years.

Originally, my life was very colorful. All the powerful people in Beiping were happy to see me. But who knew that Li Shaoyi would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

A person who does things without any rules in order to make the Japanese uncomfortable.

For Sun Chengping, if this kind of person appeared in the past, he would have to kill him as soon as possible, but the problem is that Li Shaoyi is too powerful. Don't even think about killing him. It's good enough if he doesn't cause trouble for you.

So after Li Shaoyi's rise, Sun Chengping weighed the pros and cons and quickly hid himself, trying not to meet people like Li Shaoyi. Although they were both prominent figures in Peiping, if one of them tried to hide as much as possible, there would not be many opportunities to meet.

This time, when the expeditionary force headquarters sent down the order, Sun Chengping actually cursed the Japanese grandmother five times.

I'm a die-hard traitor who wouldn't even try to escape Li Shaoyi's presence, yet you're asking me to negotiate with him. Isn't that walking me into danger? Do you really think I'm that stubborn?

Although Sun Chengping was extremely unwilling, he depended on the Japanese for his livelihood. Currently, the most powerful Japanese in North China was Commander Yamamoto of the Expeditionary Force. Commander Yamamoto personally gave the order. If you don't do it, even if the top management of the Bank of Specie endorses you, your future will not be easy.

Now in Japan, the military has the greatest power, and even the government cabinet has to retreat. Who will stand up for you, a small Chinese bank manager?

"Oh, Captain Li, Brother Sun Chengping, I've heard a lot about you."

When Sun Chengping saw Li Shaoyi's car stopped, he jogged over.

Li Shaoyi just nodded lightly, without saying much, and entered the Six Nations Hotel with his men.

The Six Nations Hotel was often frequented by dignitaries and officials, but when they saw a large group of men in Junker uniforms approaching today, they knew who they were. A few days ago, this young man had defied the world by surrounding the Six Nations Hotel and killing its guests, leading to lawlessness throughout Peking. So why were they here again today? Who was about to be in trouble again?

According to the rules of the Six Nations Hotel, no matter who comes here to eat, the bodyguards are not allowed to bring weapons in and must deposit them at the front desk. However, when Li Shaoyi's people came in, neither the front desk nor the lobby manager dared to step forward to stop them.

They had seen Li Shaoyi arresting and killing people here a few days ago. No matter whether they were Chinese or foreigners, they didn't dare to go up and touch this bad luck. Several foreign managers also looked up at the ceiling, as if they didn't see Li Shaoyi and his men.

Sun Chengping had come here many times, and his bodyguards had to hand over their weapons. Seeing the privileges of Li Shaoyi and others, he was very envious, but he quickly retracted his thoughts. Today he had to complete Commander Yamamoto's order and use all means to make Li Shaoyi promise not to publicize the incident and not to take the initiative to attack the autonomous government and the Japanese army in the near future.

When Sun Chengping received this order, he instinctively wanted to refuse. "You're asking too much!" he asked. "Li Shaoyi is an expansionist by nature. He's got a strong army now. It's said his training camps have been set up in every county, with new recruits coming out all the time. You're not going to let him expand? Is he training these soldiers to sweep the streets?"

From the first floor to the third floor, Sun Chengping had almost said everything he could say, but Li Shaoyi still had that aloof look and had no intention of talking to him. In the past, Sun Chengping would have just kept quiet, but today's incident forced him to keep finding topics to talk about.

"Stop talking nonsense. We're not on the same page. I know who you are, and you know who I am. Someone must have asked you to come talk to me about something. Let's get to the point while I still have patience. If you lose patience later, you won't be able to complete your mission. Let them serve the food."

There were only a few snacks on the table. Li Shaoyi hadn't eaten breakfast, but he didn't have time to stay here hungry. The brothers on both sides were also banging their bowls and plates, as if they hadn't eaten for several days.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, old man. I'll be there soon, right away."

Sun Chengping quickly went to find the waiter and served the meal to everyone as soon as possible.

After arranging these things, Sun Chengping returned to Li Shaoyi's room, poured tea for Li Shaoyi, and thought about how to start the conversation.

"Who asked you to come?"

Seeing that this guy was still organizing his words, Li Shaoyi spoke first.

"Commander Yamamoto of the garrison."

Sun Chengping answered instinctively. It seemed that the negotiation skills he had just considered were of no use at this moment. Li Shaoyi did not give him a chance to use them.

"Let me keep what happened that night a secret?"

After the roast suckling pig was served, Li Shaoyi tore off a piece of meat. The taste was quite good, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

"Yes, yes, Commander Yamamoto believes that the relationship between the two countries needs to continue and should not be affected by such a small matter..."

"There are benefits for letting me keep it secret. What benefits does he give me?"

Sun Chengping was interrupted by Li Shaoyi again, but he didn't dare to complain.

"The garrison headquarters recognizes your occupation of several counties to the east and promises not to attack your territory again."

When Sun Chengping was speaking, he also felt that this promise was light and had no weight. These territories have already been taken away by Li Shaoyi. Even if you don't admit it, do you have the ability to take them back?

"Xiao Sun, if this is how you negotiate, then there's no need for us to talk anymore. It doesn't seem sincere. How about you stay outside for a while? I'll take my brothers back after dinner, and then you can tell Yamamoto that I don't agree."

Li Shaoyi said very bluntly that Sun Chengping dared not leave like this. If the negotiations failed, he would forget about his position as a Chinese manager. He had not done many good things in these years. If it were not for the endorsement of the Bank of China, he would probably be liquidated on the day he stepped down based on the bad things he had done in the past.

"Captain Li, if you have any requests, please let me know. I'll immediately report back to the garrison headquarters. The telegraph in the next room is ready. I'm just a messenger, so I can't make the decision..."

Sun Chengping pointed to the next room. Li Shaoyi looked up and smiled, but Sun Chengping felt fear from this smile...
