Saturday, 8 June

I woke in the morning, and still feel weak. I decided not to take medicine.

Mr. Chen came from Tainan. I talked with him about pineapple trade. He introduced another factory. His niece, Lin Cuihua, as well as Lin’s female friend also came. We talked for quite a long time. I asked them and Shen Qi to stay to have lunch.

I received a letter from Chengzhi. He was quite happy that I am an agent of Mitsubishi and Mitsui. He also said Charles Henri had introduced him to twenty large-sized French companies to buy goods from him.

The Director of United Department, and so on, need Japanese toys and Chinese embroideries. Zhiwei and Zhongxiong immediately made an appointment with Khóo Péng and will discuss business with him in person.

In the afternoon I went out to buy Chinese stationery. I had dinner at the Cantonese restaurant, and met Han Hanying (韓漢英) by chance. We talked about the past of Bonan, and Bocen, for quite a long time.

I replied to Kitty and Qian Tai.
