Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 578 The First Snow of This Winter

After basically settling the matter in Tianjin, Lin Ze personally returned to Peking before launching a full-scale negotiation with Osako Michimasa.

The several forces in Tianjin have been straightened out, but as the saying goes, a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit. Defeating Osako Michimasa is too important for Lin Ze to be careless.

The reason why it is too important is that this is the only thing that can be regarded as Lin Ze’s first chance to truly obtain excess returns.

Think about the previous disposal of Tajima and others. Although Lin Ze benefited, it was still Matsuzaki, Tajima and others who obtained the excess returns.

It's different with Osako Michimasa. Once Osako Michimasa falls, Lin Ye will have no obstacles at all in Tianjin. It's no problem to describe him as a local emperor.

What benefits will that bring?

I'm afraid it can't be described by money.

Intelligence, status, influence....

Everything!

Mr. Lin was going back to Peiping, and the North China Transportation Corporation secretly arranged a special train.

The interior was urgently renovated, and the lounge, reception room, office, and restaurant are all quite luxurious.

Yoshimura Yuta came to the station in person and said that this train would be exclusively for Mr. Lin from now on, and the service staff on the train would also be specially equipped.

Lin Ze patted him on the shoulder to show his satisfaction.

"President Yoshimura, please be more cautious in the future. We should not meet too often, and we should not show too good a relationship in public."

Yoshimura Yuta bowed respectfully, "Ha!"

The Japanese are good at this. As long as you break their waists, they will be as obedient as your grandson.

Of course, you have to have the strength to keep him from straightening his back, otherwise he will seize the opportunity to bite you.

However, Yoshimura will probably never have such an opportunity in his life. He should just be a good dog. As long as he can still contribute value, Lin Ze will keep him and guarantee his position.

At least on the surface.

If it has no value anymore, just put it in a sack and throw it into the Haihe River.

When getting in the car, Song Yuzhen had already ironed the leather sofa with a hot water bottle.

Lin Ze lay comfortably on the large sofa. Song Yuzhen brought a blanket and covered him with it, then went to his back and gently massaged his temples.

The reason why those in power always appear to be in high spirits is not because they are supermen. It is mainly influenced by three factors: food, rest and exercise.

First of all, the food we eat is different. It is carefully and scientifically matched, delicious and healthy food ensures the foundation of the body.

Then you can get a good rest anytime and anywhere, whether it is a small suite in the office, a special carriage, or a luxurious car when you go out.

When you feel tired, there will be someone to massage you. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, you can get scientific diagnosis and treatment. This is very important for maintaining energy.

The next thing is exercise.

So don’t think that it’s difficult to become a big shot, and don’t focus on those non-core factors. Those are things you can learn naturally when you reach that position.

So what is the core factor?

It is the way of thinking, the decisiveness of action, and the clear cognition.

Because we took the Blue Harbor Express, we arrived in Peking in three hours.

It was already past ten o'clock, and when I left the station, snowflakes started falling from the sky.

Lin Ze was lost in thought, and it started snowing again.

The 28th year of the Republic of China is about to pass.

When we arrived at the front headquarters, the ground was already covered in snow.

The convoy drove straight in and the soldiers on guard saluted.

When they change shifts, someone will naturally arrange for them.

It's always like this, from when Master Lin was just an ordinary officer in the military police headquarters to now being a powerful captain who can influence the power structure.

Now all the Japanese soldiers in the gendarmerie headquarters and the front headquarters know that as long as you respect Captain Lin, Captain Lin will also respect you!

I got off the car at the entrance of the secret service department.

The boots made a crunching sound as they stepped on the snow.

Naoto Matsuzaki was already waiting at the door.

With a smile on his face, he said, "Lin-san, come into the office quickly, it's cold outside."

"Matsuzaki-kun, are you okay?"

The two men entered the office, Matsuzaki waved away the secretary, poured two cups of barley tea, and put the ashtray on the coffee table.

Lin Ze lit a cigarette for him and then for himself, and the two began chatting like old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

"Mr. Lin, the situation in Tianjin is so complicated, but you have managed to gain a firm foothold. Congratulations!"

Lin Ze smiled and said, "For the benefit of His Excellency Major General, I dare not not work hard."

Matsuzaki didn't try to hide his smile at all, he just grinned, not at all serious.

"Hey, am I the kind of person who eats alone? When there's good wine, we should drink it together, and when there's good food, we should eat it together!"

The status is indeed different from before.

In the past, would Matsuzaki need to say such friendly words?

Now Lin Ze has a bit of the spirit of a provincial governor. Even Matsuzaki has to rely on him. Whether Lin Ze does a good job or not and whether he is happy or not can directly affect Matsuzaki's interests.

Who wouldn't value his own purse and the generals under his command?

"But Mr. Lin, Osako Michimasa wrote me a letter, which roughly means that Tajima is Tajima, and he is him. The Asia Development Board has established the North China Liaison Department. This is the intention of the headquarters and the cabinet. We don't have to be at loggerheads. Do you think we should slow down our actions against them?"

Lin Ze raised his eyebrows.

The more things people have, the more conservative they tend to be.

This guy Matsuzaki now has almost all the power in North China. Except for the commander of the front and the chief of staff above him, there is basically no one who can suppress him.

Especially after defeating Tiandao, he sent Lin Ze to Tianjin. He thought he was in control of Tianjin and Beijing and was invincible. Naturally, he did not want to continue fighting with the Liaison Department.

I have to say that Osako Michimasa is very capable and good at seeing through the essence of problems.

This is also the reason why he did not immerse himself directly in the confrontation with Lin Ze, but instead tried to negotiate with Matsuzaki.

If Lin Ze doesn't realize this, his rear will probably be unstable.

But unfortunately, Lin Ze realized it.

Not only did he realize it, he also returned to Peking in person.

Frowning deliberately, Lin Ze asked, "Mr. Matsuzaki, if I use a basin of water to put out a fire, is it the water's problem or the fire's problem?"

Matsuzaki stopped talking.

"Mr. Matsuzaki, from the moment they set up the Liaison Department, this was destined to be a fight to the death. Either the Liaison Department replaces the Secret Service Department, or the Secret Service Department suppresses the Liaison Department. The so-called harmonious coexistence is nothing but a foolish dream. How can water and fire coexist?"

Matsuzaki remained silent and just smoked.

Lin Ze dropped another bombshell.

"Mr. Matsuzaki, I have already found out that the Liaison Department used to partner with the North China Transportation Company to do the opium business, which was also the most important source of funds for the Liaison Department. But now, with the establishment of the Jinling Reform Government imminent, all the opium brought in by land and sea has been intercepted by them and sold through channels in Shanghai to raise funds for their establishment of the Reform Government.

As a result, the Liaison Department’s source of funding will be cut off. How can they survive?

Aren’t you still going to take food from our mouths! ? "
