Chapter 361 Carefully Appreciating the Ancestral Painting Scroll

Xiang Chu picked up the high-sounding release document and asked with a smile:

"Chiyo-kun! Who needs to sign this document?"

Zheng Zhili smiled bitterly and said, "Matsui Sane! He may not be easy to talk to, but I know his experience. He should be both a classmate and a colleague of your father."

"Great!"

Xiang Chu clapped his hands and laughed, pointing at the radio and said,

"Please report to Fujiwara Eizo for me that I have already joined the army obediently and am temporarily serving as the head of the Shanghai Special High Section. In order to complete a very difficult task, I have specially visited Matsui Sane.

It is said that Commander Matsui has a bad temper recently and likes to shoot his subordinates who come to visit him. Please give him a heads up in advance."

Zheng Zhili couldn't help but laugh and said, "Deputy Section Chief Fujiwara! I haven't heard that Commander Matsui has this bad habit recently."

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Just assume he has it, haha!"

"understand!"

Zheng Zhili understood what he meant and quickly sent the telegram.

Soon, the message was received and deciphered as follows:

"Nobita! Your performance makes your father very happy. Your father has called that old man Matsui. You should go visit him and bring him two yellow croakers. Your father, Fujiwara Eizo!"

Xiang Chu said assumingly, "Yellow croaker? That's a gold bar."

He quickly took Yu Xiaowan back to Chuyue Hotel, put the two large gold bars in an exquisite box and was about to go out.

Yu Xiaowan pulled him back and shook her head, saying, "Tens of thousands of lives are at stake. How can this little bit of gold be worth it?"

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't Fujiwara Eizo say two? I'm afraid if I give too many, it will arouse the suspicion of the old devil."

“It feels a bit lacking!”

Yu Xiaowan shook her head and said after thinking for a while.

"Among Fujiwara no Dai's belongings, there is a painting called 'One Hundred Demons Night Parade', which was painted by a Japanese painter named Matsui. It shows the activities of various monsters and mythical creatures at night. It should be a classic work of Japanese painting. Matsui Iwane must like it."

After she finished speaking, she immediately turned it over and handed it to Xiang Chu.

Xiang Chu unfolded it and nodded, "Yes! It is also very consistent with what the devils are doing in China now, but this painting is definitely a fake."

"We haven't given him the real thing yet, go ahead! Bo!"

Yu Xiaowan said happily and slapped him on the face.

Xiang Chu rolled his eyes at her and shouted, "Are you looking for a fight? It would take me a long time to do such a delicate disguise."

Yu Xiaowan apologized, "I'm sorry! But you'd better do it again every time you go out. I'm going to raise money to save people."

Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "No need to raise money, just call Xiaotian and ask him to bring over 1 million yen, otherwise the last matter won't be over yet. Just say it was me who said it, originally it was 2 million, but you said good things and reduced it to 1 million."

Yu Xiaowan clapped her hands and laughed, "I'm taking both money and favors!"

Xiang Chu changed his makeup and said, "If Xiao Tian takes one million yen today, I won't get rid of him for the time being."

Yu Xiaowan thought for a moment and said, "Boss! Not all the people in the Japanese prison are good people. We might as well blackmail those who are truly guilty."

"You have the final say on who to release and who not to release. I just sign the document."

Xiang Chu smiled, picked up the scroll and the gold bars and walked out of A'di's room.

"I'm with you!"

Yu Xiaowan ran out of the room awkwardly, but was pushed back into the room by him.

Xiang Chu drove smoothly all the way to the headquarters of the Japanese expeditionary force.

After the introduction, he took the gift to Matsui Minoru's office.

Many Japanese officers and celebrities were waiting at the door, forming a long line.

The officers who visited him were all colonels and above, and he was the only one carrying a penny of 1.3 cents on his shoulders, which was really not enough.

A middle-aged man dressed in Japanese noble clothing deliberately taunted him, "Captain! Can Commander Matsui meet you at your level?"

Xiang Chu glanced at him and pretended to sigh, "If you had spoken to me like this alone in the wild, you would have been dead long ago."

The middle-aged man angrily asked, "Who are you? How dare you speak like that?"

Xiang Chu said calmly: "The leader of the Shanyi generation!"

"what?!"

All the devils cried out in shock and moved away from him.

"But my real name is Fujiwara no Daisuke!"

Xiang Chu said domineeringly as he unfolded the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade Scroll".

He looked down on everyone and strode towards Matsui Minoru's door.

"The leader of the mountain generation, please come in!"

All the devils bowed in salute.

Someone also said: "This is indeed the domineering attitude of the first generation of Yamashiro. Why didn't Commander Matsui go to the door to greet him? If he angered the first generation, he might kill people."

Before the man finished speaking, Matsui Minorun had already arrived at the door.

Matsui Minorune said with great enthusiasm:

"My dear nephew! Your father called a long time ago. Please come in."

"It seems that Ying Zang, the guy who abandoned his wife and children, is not bad after all!"

Xiang Chu sneered, stuffed the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" to Matsui Minorun like a carrot, and said domineeringly,

"This is the treasure that I stole from the Sannori Society. Today I saw that it was painted by someone from your Matsui family, so I brought it here specially for you."

Matsui Minoren held the scroll and exclaimed: "Thank you so much! This is indeed the heirloom of my Matsui family. I finally got to see it today. It's so great!"

"Could it be true?"

Xiang Chu immediately regretted it and said with some reluctance,

"Uncle! Could it be a fake?"

Matsui Minoru shook his head and said, "Of course it's real! Even a three-year-old child can tell the difference between the real and fake in the Matsui family."

He was afraid that Xiang Chu would go back on his word, so he hurried into the inner room and put it in the safe, then he walked out with peace of mind.

Xiang Chu opened the exquisite box containing two gold bars and said with a smile, "Uncle! My father said that you like yellow croaker the most, so he asked me to give you two when I come to visit you."

Matsui Minoru couldn't help laughing and said, "Eizo, you guys don't even explain it to me. I like yellow croakers in the sea, not gold bars. Haha!"

"what?!"

Xiang Chu pretended to be very angry, put the document in front of him, and said angrily,

"Uncle! My nephew is now in charge of the Special Higher Section. He has been tasked by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to restore economic order in the occupied areas of Shanghai. How can we restore it when there is nothing left? We can only release these Chinese and collect a large amount of bail to enrich the imperial treasury."

Matsui Minoru became a little nervous when he heard this. He hurriedly picked up the document to check it, nodding and shaking his head repeatedly.

Xiang Chu stared at him intently, which made Fujita next to him nervous. He reminded him, "Commander! Don't let the leader Yamashiro get angry. I'm afraid blood will be splattered on the spot."

Xiang Chu deliberately said loudly: "The imperial army killed Chinese people like flies, do they care about letting these Chinese people go? To be honest, I have killed more gangsters in my generation than these people. Humph!"

Matsui Minoru smiled and said, "My dear nephew! I just think fifty dollars is too cheap."

Xiang Chu wanted to kill this fellow who was stained with the blood of his compatriots, and said coldly: "What do you mean? So you think the Chinese are expensive? Forget it, return the painting "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" of the first generation immediately. No one can take the things of the first generation and not do anything."

"Yes! Of course."

Matsui Minoru was caught in a weak spot, and hurriedly signed his name on the document and handed it to him, smiling awkwardly.

"My dear nephew! In order to achieve the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Belt, the Empire should still be like you. Haha!"

"Thank you uncle!"

Xiang Chu took the document, looked at his 1.3 cents military rank, and said with a smile,

"Uncle! Can the person outside the door who just humiliated Nobita be promoted to a junior officer?"

Matsui Minoru smiled and said, "As long as you complete this task, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will definitely promote you."

"You are just like Ying Zang who abandoned his wife and children. You always procrastinate. Go away!"

Xiang Chu picked up the document, turned around, picked up the gold bar, and walked out of the room with a swagger.

Fujita Sei shook his head and said, "General Fujiwara's son is so disrespectful!"

Matsui Sane shook his head and said, "No! I know that he did abandon his wife and children, and forced a good Fujiwara no Daisuke to become the head of the Yamashita family."

Fujita Sei said regretfully: "What a pity! I forgot to take a photo with Mr. Yamashiro."

"You should have said it earlier! This commander wants to do the same."

Matsui Minorun ran to the window, but Xiang Chu had already driven away. He turned and ran into the inner room and ordered,

"Mr. Fujita! We will not be receiving any visitors today. This commander wants to carefully appreciate the ancestral scroll."

Fujita Sei laughed loudly and said, "If I had known you would do this, I would have dismissed all my subordinates. Haha!"
