Siheyuan: Returning to 61 to collect waste

"Okay, no problem." After saying goodbye to Sun Baihong and his group, Ye Chuan grabbed Hu Yanni and they hugged each other intimately. "Yanni, I have to leave!"

This was not the first time for everyone to take a flight to Tokyo, Japan, so they were not as excited as they were on their first flight.

Ye Chuan sat in the seat near the aisle, chatting with Sun Baihong.

As the owner of an electronics factory and a director of an industrial alliance, although there is a gap in status between him and Lei Luobi, Sun Baihong is still friendly to Ye Chuan.

Chen Xiangdong was a little surprised. After leaving Hong Kong Island, this guy actually had someone he knew on the plane, and judging from their conversation, the guy seemed to be of an extraordinary status.

Wei Dong and Xiao Junnian have already experienced the world, and from their experiences at the Peninsula Hotel, their admiration for Ye Chuan is even deeper.

Seeing Ye Chuan chatting and laughing with a stranger he had never met before, they did not feel anything unusual.

For Ye Chuan, he was extremely excited to learn that the Industrial Alliance delegation planned to visit many well-known Japanese companies, all of which became famous in later generations.

In modern China, many key technologies are suppressed by the West, and even the most advanced equipment cannot be purchased.

As the technical consultant of the Second Electronics Factory, if Ye Chuan can obtain these core technologies, it will undoubtedly be a great help to both companies and the country.

If he could bring this knowledge and technology back to the country, he would undoubtedly be hailed as a hero. The higher his status, the greater his contribution.

And in the turbulent situation a few years later, such security guarantees are of great significance.

From a higher perspective, he understood Mr. Xu's situation when the storm came. If he could lend a helping hand, perhaps the tragedy could be avoided.

In the capital, Ye Chuan’s biggest backer is Old Xu. If Old Xu is safe and sound, he will also be more secure.

With this in mind, he became more enthusiastic about visiting those well-known companies.

Time passed quietly, and the reminder sounded. The plane was gradually approaching the sky above Tokyo and was expected to arrive in more than ten minutes.

The trip to the island nation was planned by the head of the department, who connected them with local overseas Chinese and pro-China figures, and the plan was hastily drawn up more than a month ago.

The department had given much thought to the delegation’s inspection trip as some people in the area were hostile towards them.

Ultimately, the department decided to move forward with the trip in order to learn their advanced management model.

However, in several meetings before departure, the department specifically emphasized that members needed to keep a low profile in Japan, after all, safety is the most important thing.

More than ten minutes later, the plane landed steadily at Tokyo Airport.

Sun Baihong informed Ye Chuan of the address of the hotel where they would stay and outlined the specific subsequent activities.

The two groups of people got off the bus one after another. The Hong Kong delegation was received by the island country personnel, while Ye Chuan and his party were received by both Chinese and local people.

When they stepped onto the island, everyone felt extremely comfortable.

In May, the island's climate is not yet hot and humid, and is similar to that of China's capital.

Away from the sultry air of Hong Kong Island and breathing the cool breeze from the north, everyone felt a lot more relaxed.

The professor who came to greet us was named Wang Tiantai, who was in his fifties. He wore black-framed glasses and was gentle and polite.

According to Chen Xiangdong, he is a Chinese professor who has taught in the local area for many years. He has always been concerned about his motherland for many years but has not been able to return.

When he heard that the Chinese delegation was coming, he immediately agreed to assist and made full preparations, contacting many shopping malls and business people through his personal network.

Seeing the delegation brought by Chen Xiangdong, Wang Tiantai, with tears in his eyes, quickly walked a few steps and tightly held Chen Dong's hand, and said with deep emotion: "Director Chen, I finally welcome our Chinese visitors!"

Chen Xiangdong was equally excited. They talked on the phone many times, and each time he felt Professor Wang's deep homesickness.

Expressing gratitude to Wang Tiantai, “Professor Wang, you will take care of us for a long time, thank you very much.”

Wang Tiantai wiped the tears from behind his glasses and waved his hand gently in response: "You're welcome. This is my job." He shook hands with the other 13 members of the delegation one by one to express his welcome. "Director Chen, you are tired from the journey. You should go to the hotel to rest first. I have an academic conference tonight and cannot accompany you for dinner.

Have a good rest tonight and we will pick you up tomorrow morning."

Everyone agreed with Wang Tiantai's arrangement. At that time, China and Japan had not yet had formal official contacts, and everyone was deeply gratified that Wang Tiantai could provide such assistance.

After getting on the minibus, the car slowly left the airport.

Although everyone had some impression of prosperous cities, they were still shocked by the constant flow of traffic and clean roads when they were actually in the city center.

Compared with the urban life in Hong Kong Island, the island country is prosperous and orderly, and citizens queuing up can be seen everywhere.

Although he was indignant towards the people on the island, Ye Chuan had to admit that there were many things worth learning here.

The hotel where the delegation stayed was similar to a modern budget hotel, with old facilities but cleanliness. Every two members were allocated a room, and no one, including Chen Xiangdong, enjoyed the treatment of a single room.

Wei Dong and Xiao Junnian lived in the same room, while Ye Chuan chose to sleep with Chen Xiangdong. "Little Ye, do you need to act alone during your stay in the island country?" Ye Chuan smiled, and then explained: "Director Chen, Mr. Liu Bohong, who just talked to me, is the owner of a private electronics factory in Hong Kong Island, and is also the head of the visiting group that led the Hong Kong Industrial Alliance to inspect the island.

They were invited to visit large companies such as Sony.”

Chen Xiangdong nodded, although he was a little confused, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Ye Chuan went on to say: “Well-known companies, such as Sony, have technologies and products that are among the best in the world.

I have agreed with Liu Bohong to accompany the delegation as a member of the tour group, trying to obtain some internal confidential documents or drawings, or even advanced technology equipment that is not easily available on the market. "

Hearing this, Chen Xiangdong's expression became serious, and he nodded in response: "If you can do this, you have indeed done a great job.

Just go ahead and do it. I grant you leave.

But safety comes first, remember that you are the most important, is that clear?" "Don't worry, Director Chen, I am not a threat to ordinary people."

Thinking back to what happened in Suicheng, Chen Xiangdong's worries were alleviated.

After storing his luggage at the hotel, Ye Chuan left and took a taxi to the address given by Liu Bohong.

After arriving at the address written on the paper, he found that it was a five-star hotel. He secretly praised the Hong Kong Industrial Alliance for its wealth.

Although he knew they were staying here, he didn't know the specific room number, so he asked at the front desk and asked the staff to contact Liu Bohong.

Feeling bored, Ye Chuan simply sat down and ordered a cup of coffee for himself.

It has been nearly a year since he traveled to this era and he has never tasted coffee again. Today, he tasted the specially brewed latte and it tasted much richer.

Just as he finished half a cup of coffee, Liu Bohong, in casual clothes, walked into the store. Seeing Ye Chuan enjoying his coffee, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

I thought, this young man really knows how to enjoy life, and he even likes coffee. "Mr. Ye, you have a good appetite!" Liu Bohong said with a smile. "Would you like another cup of coffee, Manager Liu?" Ye Chuan asked.

Liu Bohong shook his head and smiled: "I don't like this taste very much."

Looking at his watch, Ye Chuan proposed: "Manager Liu, it's time for dinner. Why don't we have dinner together? How about we talk while we eat?"

After thinking about it, Liu Bohong did not refuse: "Mr. Ye, you can have a meal, but this meal should be my treat."

Ye Chuan waved his hand to reject the proposal: "Manager Liu, don't be polite to me about paying the bill."

Hearing this, Liu Bohong laughed, then followed Ye Chuan out of the hotel.

There happened to be a Japanese food store outside the door, so Ye Chuan walked in without caring about the price.

The interior layout of the restaurant was comfortable. He and Liu Bohong sat cross-legged barefoot on the tatami, and the waiter came forward to serve them.

Japanese people usually kneel on tatami when eating, but neither of them is used to this way.

Ye Chuan browsed the menu and chose the Japanese Wagyu Sukiyaki and seafood sashimi, speaking in pure Japanese.

Liu Bohong was surprised by this. He didn't expect that the young man could speak Japanese so fluently.

He had studied Japanese for some time in preparation for this visit, but only basic listening skills.

The young man in front of me spoke Japanese without any foreign accent, and it was almost impossible to tell his nationality.

At this moment, Ye Chuan also sighed: the system is really amazing. It seems to have anticipated that he would set foot in Hong Kong Island and the island country, and gave him advanced skills in Cantonese and Japanese in advance.

Soon after, the waiter brought the finely textured beef and some seasonal vegetables, marking the beginning of dinner.

In today's era, Wagyu beef is still an extremely precious gourmet ingredient, expensive, and highly praised by the wealthy people of the island country.

The waiter then brought a black iron pot, placed various vegetables in it one by one, then placed the wagyu beef on the top, covered the pot with a lid, and began to cook slowly.

While the Sukiyaki pot was steaming, the waiter brought the seafood sashimi to the table.

Ye Chuan held the wine glass, which the waiter had just filled for him. "Manager Liu, thank you so much for your help!" he said gratefully. "Oh, it's nothing, just a little help." Liu Bohong also raised his glass, clinked it gently, raised his head and drank, tasting half a glass of this moderately strong sake.

The sake went down the throat sweetly, but the aftertaste was a bit strong, so the two of them just tasted it a little.

Soon, the waiter lifted the lid of the pot, and a strong aroma of meat instantly filled the entire box, making people salivate. "Manager Liu, try it while it's hot. The beef of the island country is very famous. Although we are used to eating it, it is said that the breeding method here is somewhat unique." When he mentioned this, he paused for a moment, but did not mention the music and milk.

Picking up a piece of tender beef and putting it into his mouth, Ye Chuan felt a rich meaty aroma spreading on the tip of his tongue.

The mouthfeel is silky, not at all greasy, oily or dry, and the taste is simply outstanding.

He was not in a hurry to get to the point, but chose to chat about family matters. Such a conversation made Liu Bohong's face full of joy.
