When Huang Zijian drove Zhou Wenhua’s domestic car and arrived at a hidden small club flight training field on the outskirts of Hangzhou according to Guo Zhijie’s instructions,
he immediately looked incredulous and stared at the two Soviet aircraft in front of him, muttering.
Meanwhile, Guo Zhijie smiled at him first, then gestured for him to get out of the car together to see the two relatively new Soviet aircraft.
At this time, inside this hidden small club airport, there was already a group of similarly new personnel, including the Fudan University alumni that Guo Zhijie mentioned.
When they saw Guo Zhijie bringing Huang Zijian out of the car and walking towards them, they also waved and greeted them.

Japanese agent chief Major Ryūkichi Tanaka had a dark expression as he stared at the Japanese agent team leaders standing in front of him, not even daring to breathe.
“Baka Yarou! Are you all trash?”
“Last time I ordered you to investigate within three days who killed our agents and the China merchants who defected to us, I had already seriously warned you about the consequences of not completing the task within the stipulated time!”
“But now a week has passed, and you still haven’t investigated who did these things, so demote all of you immediately!”
“You have really disappointed me too much!”
“I don’t even have the energy or mood to continue cursing you now!”
“All of you get out!”
“And have the ones replacing you come in!”
After scanning these disappointing Japanese team leaders,
Major Ryūkichi Tanaka mercilessly continued his furious cursing.
Then, after cursing them and driving these Japanese team leaders out,
he had the new Japanese agents replacing them come in.
Soon, a group of Japanese agents arrived nervously and anxiously in front of Major Ryūkichi Tanaka, waiting for his instructions.
“You’ve all seen that the ones I just kicked out are all trash, all incompetent trash, so you must remember that if you fail to complete the tasks I assign you today like they did, your fate will be the same as theirs!”
“I don’t need trash as team leaders!”
Looking at these newly arrived Japanese agents,
Major Ryūkichi Tanaka scanned them with a stern gaze,
then continued sternly.
“Hai!”
“Hai!”
“Hai!”
All the Japanese agents hurriedly responded loudly in unison.
“Now, I’ll give you one week to investigate which forces are behind the murder of Zhang Yiliang, Tsubaki Motoshiro, and others!”
“If you can’t give me satisfactory investigation results, your fate will be the same as those idiot trash just now—demoted and starting from the bottom!”
“Also investigate Yoshiko Kawashima’s recent whereabouts and what she’s been doing!”
“I don’t want even her to be out of my control!”
Seeing these Japanese agents in front of him intimidated by his fierce demeanor, looking terrified,
Major Ryūkichi Tanaka’s mood improved slightly,
then he continued to issue stern instructions.
“Hai!”
“Hai!”
“Hai!”
All the Japanese agents nodded and bowed again, responding loudly.
Major Ryūkichi Tanaka waved his hand, telling them to get out immediately.
But at this moment,
a Japanese agent hurriedly came to him and handed him a secret telegram.
Seeing this, Major Ryūkichi Tanaka puzzledly took the secret telegram handed over by the other party and opened it to read.
“Yoshi!”
“This is really good news!”
“Major General Iwane Matsui and Major General Masao Okamura have also been summoned back to the homeland by His Majesty!”
“It seems the Shanghai Operation Plan might have hope!”
“Since that’s the case, I must also work hard to complete the tasks they assigned me!”
After reading the telegram,
Major Ryūkichi Tanaka, in a great mood, showed a long-absent smile and muttered.
After saying that, he took out his lighter and burned the secret telegram on the spot.
At this time,
Zhou Wenhua was in his new toy factory, researching a large batch of foreigners’ toys,
with a group of recruited toy designers and management personnel by his side.
Of course, Zhou Wenhua’s plan was to research and develop those well-known toy brand products in advance for sales to make money.
While Zhou Wenhua was leading the core layer of the toy factory in researching the production design of new toys,
butler Liu Xing suddenly came to see him.
Seeing this,
Zhou Wenhua greeted the core personnel of the toy factory beside him, told them to continue researching,
then he went first to his office in the toy factory to talk with butler Liu Xing.
“Young Master! All personnel from the various rubber plantations have arrived and can start operations at the normal time!”
“The rubber management personnel you recruited have also taken their positions at their respective rubber plantations, ready to manage at your instructions at any time. Each rubber plantation is equipped with a telegraph machine for contact!”
“Additionally, the first batch of flying club personnel has been recruited!”
“About 15 people participating, including Fudan University alumni and other aviation enthusiasts, plus 8 obedient and smart workers we carefully selected from various factories to join flight training and the flying club as front-facing members!”
“Finally, for recruiting foreign flight instructors, I’ve found a US pilot who came over for you, Young Master. He’s a foreigner retired from the US air force, planning to settle in the Foreign Concessions of Shanghai!”
“Can arrange a meeting anytime!”
“His name is Brad·Cruz!”
“Finally, Eldest Brother Zhou Leming is on leave from the Guard 2nd Division and will stay for about one or two days. He wants to meet you, chat about family matters, and see the master!”
“Eldest Brother has now become a company commander!”
“And it’s said their troops are starting to equip with the German Army’s new weaponry!”
After only Zhou Wenhua remained in the office, butler Liu Xing immediately reported.
“Okay! Arrange a meeting for me tomorrow!”
“When my eldest brother returns, you must prepare a sumptuous banquet for me. I want to congratulate him on his promotion!”
“And we haven’t gathered to eat together for a long time!”
“This is a good thing, so make sure the kitchen side does well with the food and drink!”
“Absolutely cannot let my eldest brother eat poorly. You know, in the troops, he definitely won’t be as comfortable as at home!”
After Zhou Wenhua heard butler Liu Xing’s report,
he digested the content of the report and issued instructions.
“Yes! Young Master!”
Butler Liu Xing nodded and accepted the order.
“Mm! You go back first! Prepare the banquet for entertaining my eldest brother tomorrow!”
“As for that foreign flight instructor, postpone the meeting by three days!”
Zhou Wenhua continued.
“Yes! Young Master!”
Butler Liu Xing acted on orders and left.
Soon, only Zhou Wenhua remained in the entire office.
“Has the Guard 2nd Division finally equipped with German weaponry?”
“It seems the German-equipped 88th Division is about to be born!”
“That means the First Battle of Shanghai is coming soon!”
“Looks like I need to prepare some self-defense too!”
Zhou Wenhua muttered softly.
Then, he left his office and continued researching the manufacturing methods of foreigners’ new toys.
He planned to complete his first batch of toy research and development within a week and launch them to the market, including overseas foreign markets.
