After the divorce, Yanagihara Byakuren began to study at Toyo Eiwa Girls' School, absorbed Western culture, began to compose Japanese songs, and became famous in the Japanese poetry circle.

After graduation, Yanagihara Byakuren returned to his hometown. At that time, his brother was in need of money to run for parliament. In order to raise money, his brother introduced Yanagihara Byakuren to Japanese coal king Ito Saemon. Yanagihara Byakuren looked at the upstart who was nearly fifty years old in front of him.

, I felt disgusted in my heart, but as an elder brother like a father, Yanagihara Byakuren could not refuse.

In the end, Ito Yoemon married Yanagihara Byakuren back home for 20,000 yuan.

Later, Yanagihara Byakuren met the 27-year-old journalist and labor movement activist Miyazaki Ryusuke. The two fell in love at first sight. Miyazaki Ryusuke's conversation and demeanor deeply attracted Yanagihara Byakuren. This time she decided to control her own destiny.

After two years of underground love, Yanagihara Byakuren and Miyazaki Ryusuke discussed elopement and published an agreement to sever ties with her ex-husband in a newspaper. This incident caused a sensation at the time.

It was not until the Great Kanto Earthquake in Japan in 1923 that the two overcame numerous obstacles and completed their marriage.

Yanagihara Byakuren had a rough life, especially being divorced twice as a nobleman, which is definitely big news.

The second divorce was reported in the newspaper, and everyone in Japan knew about it. Lu Xiuzhu also saw it in the newspaper when he was in Japan.

I never expected that she would actually come to China.

Look at this pomp, look at this grandeur, how else could we say that she is the daughter of an earl and a noble? Even if she meets a guest, no one is allowed to see her true face.

Even if you want to say something, you have to ask the maid to pass it on.

Lu Xiuzhu had no doubt at all. You must know that although Yanagihara Byakuren is very famous in Japan, it is almost unknown in China.

Needless to say, Lu Xiuzhu felt excited when he thought that he had the honor to meet the count's daughter today. Moreover, people in Japan said that Yanagihara Byakuren was a peerless beauty. It was a pity that they were in the same room, but could not get a glimpse of her beauty.

This is a small regret.

The conversation between the two parties was entirely conveyed by the maids.

The general idea is that Yanagihara Byakuren brought a large amount of counterfeit Japanese yen banknotes this time and needed to get rid of them, so he was willing to dispose of them in Shanghai at a relatively low price.

Wan Bozhong really wanted to ask, since the other party was a Japanese noble, why did he make counterfeit banknotes of his own country?

But this style completely shocked him. The words came to his lips, but he had to swallow them back.

Aura is a very subtle thing that cannot be touched or seen, but when you are in a certain environment and face a special person, you will be suppressed by the other person's aura.

This was exactly what Wan Bozhong and others were doing at this time.

Wan Bozhong said cautiously: "Please tell me, how many are there?"

"Yen, three million!"

three million?

Wan Bozhong and Lu Lianyi both took a breath of air.

If you exchange 100 U.S. dollars for 700 holiday dollars, that's 1:7, which equals over 400,000 U.S. dollars.

Oh my god, the amount is huge.

"This... is too much, too much..." Wan Bozhong said hesitantly.

The maid smiled slightly: "Madam knows that the transaction amount is huge, but Madam is not willing to find people to trade in batches. Not everyone can see Madam. So, no matter whether the business can be successful or not, you are all here. If you can't

It's not in line with etiquette to let you run away in vain. Madam has a small gift for you."

She clapped her fearful palms.

The man standing next to Mrs. Liuyuan Bailian immediately came over with a delicate cloth bag and handed it into Wan Bozhong's hand.

"What is this?" Wan Bozhong asked tentatively.

"Here is fifty thousand yen."

"fifty thousand?"

"Yes, of course they are all counterfeit coins." The maid said calmly: "As the Chinese say, buying and selling cannot be done with justice. Madam is opposed to the war between China and Japan..."

Um?

A count's daughter opposed to the war?

Wan Bozhong and others did not dare to speak, and listened to the maid continue: "Besides, no matter how Sino-Japanese relations become, you are all her guests. These 50,000 yen are gifts, you can use them as you like. If

If there is a problem, we will bear all losses. Madam will stay here for a few days, and you can come to Madam at any time."

"That's so embarrassing, that's so embarrassing." Wan Bozhong said repeatedly.

Fifty thousand yen was a huge sum of money, even if it was a counterfeit note, but Mrs. Bailian gave it away casually.

"Okay, that's it." But the maid gave the eviction order there: "It's time for rest, madam. Thank you very much for coming. Goodbye."

"Ah, bye, bye."

Wan Bozhong and Lu Lianyi can be considered old friends, but here, they don't even have a chance to talk...

…

"Ouch, it looks so ugly. I have to wash my teeth quickly."

Not long after the "guest" left, "maid" Ye Rong rushed into the bathroom in a hurry.

"Hey, you peeked at me going to the toilet. It's shameless."

A man's voice came from the toilet.

Of course, there is only one person who can say such shameless words:

Meng Shaoyuan!

"Get out of the way quickly."

Ye Rong didn't care, and wiped the black spots on her teeth desperately. While wiping, she said vaguely: "Director Meng, do Japanese really think that black teeth mean they are beautiful?"

"It's true, Professor Chen Yinge and Chen Da told me."

Meng Shaoyuan walked out of the bathroom slowly: "Hey, Assistant Wu and Shen Li performed well."

"It's not bad." "Mrs. Bailian" Wu Jingyi came out from behind the curtain: "I just whispered a few words into Ye Rong's ear, and it's all Ye Rong's credit."

"This nonsense has to sound like a muttering." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "By the way, what did you say to Ye Rong? You said it in a decent way."

"I said, Meng Shaoyuan is not a thing, Meng Shaoyuan is a big liar..."

Holy shit!

Shen Li was a little worried: "Director Meng, they don't seem to want to do this business."

"They want to do it, otherwise they wouldn't come today." Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "But they are afraid, after all, the amount is too big. More than 400,000 US dollars, even if they lose everything, they can't get it together. But I have already put down the bait. It’s okay if they don’t take the bait.”

After saying that, he looked at Shen Li and then at Ye Rong who came out of the bathroom after washing his teeth: "If they are really unwilling to do it, they will not accept the 50,000 yen. If they are not greedy, today They won't come. So this is interesting. They are extremely greedy and have never been afraid of making unconscionable money. Now there is such a good opportunity in front of them. Once it is confirmed that the business is feasible, they will bite it regardless of their cost. Hold on to the hook. When that time comes, even if someone asks them to let go, they won't be happy."

Ye Rong listened very carefully and couldn't help but ask: "Director Meng, can you explain it in more detail?"

"People have the ability to discern and can judge whether something is right or wrong." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Most people are self-centered. When they think something is true, no matter how others persuade them, , will not have any effect. Because his subconscious mind believes that it is true, and in his ego state, he will particularly reject people who persuade him."

In Meng Shaoyuan's era, there were many telecommunications frauds. Even if the police came in person to persuade the victims that it was a scam, the victims would rather believe the scammers than the real police.

Firstly, the victim has been brainwashed by the other party. Another reason is that from a psychological point of view, he subconsciously believes that he cannot be deceived and seriously rejects the persuader.

"In addition to the ability to discern, there is also a herd mentality." Meng Shaoyuan continued: "The so-called herd mentality, when something cannot be decided, as long as one person agrees, the rest will respond. Most of the time, people will think that they You are smarter than others, but when you encounter a problem that you are hesitant about, you will strangely think that the other person has better judgment than you."

Shen Li and Ye Rong listened with great interest.

They have received professional spy training, including surveillance, telegraphy, assassination... They have learned everything, but they have never heard of this kind of psychology.

No wonder I just arrived in Shanghai and when I chatted with those old spies, they would always say, never lie in front of Director Meng, because no matter how well your lies are crafted, you will never be able to deceive Director Meng.

Now, they completely believe it.

"If Director Meng's judgment is correct, I, Mrs. Bai Lian, will continue to act." Wu Jingyi said: "These people are also unlucky. A golden badou defrauded Master Meng of two thousand yuan, and in the end he brought a group of gangsters with him. Bad luck."

Ye Rong was startled: "Two thousand oceans?"

Wu Jingyi sneered at Meng Shaoyuan: "Do you think your Director Meng is really so chivalrous and upright, and wants to eradicate these scum? The main reason is not because Jin Badou cheated him of two thousand yuan, and he insisted on giving up his capital and profits. Are people going bankrupt?"

Meng Shaoyuan coughed repeatedly: "Nonsense, nonsense, I just watched them doing evil in Shanghai... Ah, the main reason is this... Of course, Jin Badou has water in his head and dares to extort my money..."

Shen Li and Ye Rong almost laughed, as Assistant Wu had confirmed it correctly. Director Meng was a famous vengeful person, and cheating him out of his money was considered a sign that his ancestors had no good deeds.

"Besides." Meng Shaoyuan murmured: "It's not just two thousand oceans, but also fifty thousand yen."

"Ah?" Ye Rong blurted out: "Is that fifty thousand yen real?"

"Nonsense!" Meng Shaoyuan's eyes widened: "I said, if you want to fish, the bait must be good and fragrant, otherwise how can you catch big fish? I don't use real money, so why should I use counterfeit money?"

You are young, 50,000 yen, a lot of money to spend, what if something goes wrong?

In Meng Shaoyuan's era, first using the truth to make you believe, and then using the fake to get you hooked was a tried and tested method by those scammers.

Master Meng just made some slight modifications and then set up a big scam.
