Chapter 644: Leading the Qing Gang

Who can really rest assured?

Zhang Xiaolin thought that everyone in his Zhang Mansion was under control, but there were always loopholes, but the military control people didn't study it.

The first time the military control carried out sanctions, they took the method of shooting in the street, but because Zhang Xiaolin's car was modified to be bulletproof, it failed. And the reason why they took the method of killing in the street was to deter. After all, killing in the street is much stronger than assassination. The strength represented is not the same thing.

But there is no way, after all, the previous action was unsuccessful, which made Zhang Xiaolin defensive, and he stayed at home all day long. Counting the previous prison break, they did not receive the credit they deserved, so they thought about doing something big, and then they studied Zhang Xiaolin carefully again.

They investigated everyone inside and outside the Zhang Mansion, and finally locked in the maid in her forties. She has parents, husband, and two sons. After all, they are from Zhang Mansion, and they can also borrow some of Zhang Xiaolin's power. Besides, they can easily buy the hearts of people around them. Although Zhang Xiaolin is a gangster who does bad things, he still knows this kind of thing.

So the family of this maid lives a pretty good life, but they are also quite domineering. Not everyone can have a normal heart. Their whole family works for Zhang Xiaolin, and after a long time, they will naturally become arrogant.

This is where the Military Control Bureau found a breakthrough and tied up all their family members. Zhang Xiaolin's so-called control is nothing more than arranging work for them and having people keep an eye on them. However, this kind of work, when implemented at the bottom, may be carried out seriously at the beginning, but after a long time, no one will take it seriously.

So the Military Control Bureau coerced and lured this family and successfully coerced this maid in her forties. On that morning, there was a rare time when Zhang Xiaolin was alone and relaxed his vigilance.

The maid smeared a layer of cyanide on the inside and outside of the cup, and also put a deadly poison dissolved in water into the tea. Under the dual effects, it took Zhang Xiaolin less than three minutes from swallowing the tea to his death.

The maid who successfully poisoned Zhang Xiaolin left Zhang Mansion openly after the incident. The military personnel arranged to leave Shanghai and go to the Kuomintang-controlled area as soon as possible.

Zhang Xiaolin died easily, but it can't be seen that way. Because it has been a month and a half since Wang Yan encouraged them to take action. In the past month and a half, they have conducted various investigations, prepared various methods, etc., and these preliminary preparations are crucial. Although it was rough to tamper with the rim of the teacup, who made Zhang Xiaolin careless?

In fact, the military control could not act so roughly. Since the maid thought the opportunity was good and chose to take action, they must be prepared to change to forced killing if the poisoning failed. The maid had sent a signal to the outside before taking action. The operatives outside and other bribed people inside were ready to attack at any time.

It can be said that when the maid carried the tea tray into the study, the entire Zhang Mansion was shrouded in a dark cloud, brewing a huge murderous intention that would definitely change the situation in Shanghai.

In the original history, Zhang Xiaolin also died at home, shot by his bodyguard. According to records, it was after the failure of a previous sanction operation that the Military Control Commission had already instigated an insider. However, due to the influence of Wang Yan, and the fact that no matter who the prototype was, Wang Tianfeng was not a person, this person was more paranoid and had a very high execution ability. He put his energy into killing Zhang Xiaolin to get promoted, and now it has nothing to do with the original history.

The person died in the morning, and the death letter was reported at noon on the Kuomintang radio station. Once again, he swore an impassioned oath of the Kuomintang's determination to resist Japan and save the country, and the attitude of never tolerating the traitors who surrendered to the Japanese and hurt their compatriots.

Zhang Xiaolin is indeed a big traitor. After all, his social status is there, what he did to help the Japanese is also there, and the past of harming the bottom working people is even more there. The death of such a person is welcomed by the masses. Of course, most of them just listened to the excitement and had fun. After all, they have been in Shanghai for many years, and they have seen these people die before. They know very well that if one dies, another will come up, and it will not change their lives. Especially now that there are more Japanese, no one is stupid enough to really believe in the East Asian Co-Prosperity, they are all exploiting them in the same way.

Compared with those hard-working people, those progressive intellectuals are still very happy about Zhang Xiaolin's death. They understand more and know how big a thunderbolt this news is for other traitors. This is really useful for the anti-Japanese and national salvation. After all, Zhang Xiaolin, a tycoon who has been dominating Shanghai for many years, has been killed. Wouldn't those small traitors who are not as good as Zhang Xiaolin die faster? Even if no one kills them, at some times, for some things, they will have different choices and leave a way out for themselves.

In this regard, those traitors or others will always take Wang Yan as their role model. It's just a pity that their characters are not established, and they are far less real than Wang Yan. That's what they have been insisting on since they entered the police station, and they have been implementing it after they came to power. Over the years, no one would easily doubt Wang Yan. The most important thing is that they don't have the French as a backer, and Wang Yan is not as scheming as them.

But it should be said that Wang Yan is the biggest beneficiary of Zhang Xiaolin's death.

Because among the Qing Gang, there are still many hills. Zhang Xiaolin can't control everyone, he can only say that he can persuade others so that others don't dare to make their own decisions. Now that Zhang Xiaolin is dead, his sons are ineffective, and none of his direct subordinates can convince others. The originally good situation fell apart in an instant and turned into a mess. As for those who have not taken refuge, they have not taken refuge in the first place. Whether Zhang Xiaolin dies or not has some bearing on it, but not much.

"impossible!"

It was dinner time, at the dinner table of a Huaiyang restaurant, Wang Yan did not hesitate to say no to Akihiro Omura, a senior official of the Japanese consulate sitting in front of him.

"Mr. Omura, you should already know who I am before you come into contact with me. Indeed, I have provided you with a lot of information in recent times, but that was just to show my regret for my unintentional wrongdoings before. The compensation is also a reward for not taking my life in anger. Now you want me to come forward and deal with the mess left by Zhang Xiaolin, which is tantamount to asking me to die now, not to mention the French attitude towards this matter. Even Zhang Xiaolin was poisoned by the military commander in such a tight guard. I don't think I can survive for a few more days.

Zhang Xiaolin is over sixty, and he has enjoyed it all his life. If he hadn't been rich, people at this age would have died of illness long ago. I just saw him more than a month ago. He looked rosy, full of vitality, and extremely healthy. Who would have thought that not long after, he was poisoned to death so easily? I am only twenty-nine this year, and I still have decades to live. My wealth and power are not as good as those of Zhang Xiaolin, and I don’t want to die so early.

Let’s talk about the attitude of the French. Once I agree to take over Zhang Xiaolin’s affairs, I will control the money of the French and the power of the Japanese. Do you think the French will let me go? Do you think you will do your best to protect my safety if you say anything? Do you think I will believe it? Mr. Omura, you can't say too much. There is no absolute safety in this world.

Let me reiterate again, work for whomever takes care of your job. I know that you Japanese will not stop here. Shanghai is a good place, but two concessions pop up and look uncomfortable. Sooner or later, you will invade the concessions. At that time, if you trust me, you will still let me work in the catching room. So what am I doing now and what will I do next. When the time comes, let me arrest people from both parties. Mr. Omura, let me tell you the truth, even if you completely occupy China and break up the two parties, I still dare not make an enemy of them. Because even if they can only survive, the remaining people can easily kill me.

And the current situation is that although your military strength is at its peak and overwhelming, the resistance you are facing is getting bigger and bigger. I still remember last year that you said it would take one month to quell the China Incident and three months to deal with the Kuomintang Central Army. The fact is that war is still going on on the front lines. How dare I come forward to seek death?

Mr. Omura, it’s better to find someone else. Wang really can’t do this kind of thing. "

Wang Yan said these words from the bottom of his heart and from the bottom of his heart. His words also revealed his fear of Zhang Xiaolin's death. When he mentioned the two parties, he looked like a frightened rabbit. There are four words written on it: greed for life and fear of death.

Omura Akihiro stared directly into Wang Yan's eyes: "Aren't you afraid of offending the Japanese Empire and killing you now?"

"No, Mr. Omura, we are friends, aren't we? So far, except for an unintentional mistake before, I have never blocked your way, and even made it easier for you. Before the station opened, your people I frequently fought with people from both parties in the French Concession. Although I was only a small captain at that time, I also ensured your safety. You don’t need to tell me how many of you the French arrested during that time? Not one was caught.

And why did you come in person to let me take over Zhang Xiaolin’s mess? Isn’t it because I have value? You all know that even if I don't arrest people from both parties, I still have the ability to do things. Even if you don't have a shootout with people from both parties in my jurisdiction, then my jurisdiction is the safest, and no one would dare to commit trouble here. The residents, homeless people, beggars, merchants, and wealthy people in the area are all in good order. Even if I don't go against people from both parties, this ability to maintain regional stability is what you need, right? "

"Ordinary people are only smart, but Inspector Wang has great wisdom. You are right, just as Nantian Yoko opened the door for you and arranged women for you, we all appreciate you very much. I already knew it before coming here Well, with your personality, you won’t get ahead of anything. Since you don’t do it, we can’t force you.” Omura Akihiro took a bite of the steamed fish on the table and said after feeling the fresh taste: "So, who do you think is suitable?"

"Mr. Omura is forcing others to do something difficult. You don't know, so how does Mr. Wang know so much? You know very well that although I am also a member of the Youth Gang, I am not close to the other leaders, so I can't tell."

"Oh? Really? I can't see. Maybe you haven't received the news yet, but I have already received the information. After the news of Zhang Xiaolin's death came out in the morning, those who did not deal with Zhang Xiaolin and had ambiguous attitudes towards the Japanese Empire The members of the Qing Gang got together at noon and even invited Huang Jinrong, but they were rejected. They argued for two hours and finally decided to ask you to come forward. Inspector Wang, what are you doing? look?"

This is not an accident. In the past, when Zhang Xiaolin was not dead, they worked independently because they knew that Zhang Xiaolin could not do anything to them. Just lower your head occasionally and give in a few steps. Moreover, they did not offend the Japanese, so they could safely run their pornography, gambling, drug and other businesses in the public concession and the French Concession. They are both members of the Youth Gang, and those who have no reputation for surrendering to the Japanese are powerful. Therefore, everyone usually does not interfere with the river.

But it's different now. Zhang Xiaolin is dead. No one can convince the former leaders who had taken refuge with the Japanese, and they all began to develop for their own interests. They all come from Shanghai, and in such a big place, it’s very clear what each other’s virtues are. So it would be good if the Japanese can find someone to suppress them. If not, then Shanghai Beach is considered to be a stable world, and there will definitely be another bloody storm.

Those who have not taken refuge know very well that among the older generation, only Huang Huangrong and Du Yong have that power. But Huang Huangrong has retired and is no longer involved in Jianghu affairs, otherwise Zhang Xiaolin would not have gained power in the first place. Du Yong even ran to Hong Kong Island, where he was trying to survive. Other than that, no one else can do it convincingly.

As for the other older people, perhaps they were once very prosperous and had disciples from all walks of life, including many outstanding people in high positions. But after all, they have been out for many years. If you call them uncle or uncle to save face, who would know those old guys if you don’t give them face? If you are old and do not die, you are a thief. When you are old, you must be honest. Only if you are honest can you have the corresponding prestige. The former disciples are old friends, and the favors spread out are useful. After all, it is not their world now.

If we talk about a single force that is the most powerful, apart from Zhang Xiaolin's direct descendants, it is Wang Yan who has been developing on his own over the years and belongs to the younger generation. Not only in terms of the strength of this kind of manpower, Wang Yan is also not bad at all in terms of connections. After all, Wang Yan is so afraid of death and has done business with the two parties for so many years, how could he not leave a way out for himself? The Kuomintang has a larger territory and naturally has more people to make friends with, including many in high positions. They all come out to hang out, and they all have a lot of people behind them.

Wang Yan is notoriously greedy for life and fear of death in Shanghai. Even five- and six-year-old children make up rhymes and sing them in the streets. They concluded that Wang Yan would never go out to do things for the Japanese. Even if they were in Wang Yan's place, they wouldn't go. After all, it already has a lot of power, no one dares to touch it lightly, and it is still making money happily, but it is a fool who acts as a scumbag to the Japanese, is called a traitor, and is still worried about by people from both parties.

So they did the opposite. If Wang Yan didn't surrender to the Japanese, they would drag Wang Yan over to their group to withstand the pressure of the Japanese and suppress the leaderless men of Zhang Xiaolin. In this way, Shanghai Beach is still the same Shanghai Beach, and everyone is happy.

"Wang is the most greedy and lustful person. If I say he has no ambition, I'm afraid Mr. Omura won't believe it." Wang Yan took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "It's true that I haven't received the news yet, but if they really come to me, , then I will definitely take the initiative. Because this will elevate my status and become the leader of the new generation of the Green Gang, and I think that at that time, you will not interfere in the internal struggles of the Green Gang, right? It’s about using China to control China.”

"Of course, as long as you don't make a big fuss and don't affect our plans, who would be willing to meddle in other people's business?" Omura Akihiro also laughed, laughing at Wang Yan's unabashed ambition. He asked, "Inspector Wang, What are you going to do if they really come to you?”

"Of course, being friendly makes you rich. I am a businessman. Although I did make a living by fighting and killing in the early years, I hate this kind of thing the most. So I still do that, let everyone make a fortune together in a friendly manner. Those who disagree may also Don’t force it, it’s easy to get together. But you can rest assured that I will still not cooperate with the two parties, let alone offend them. Our cooperation will continue, and it can even be deeper.”

"What's the meaning?"

Wang Yan said with a smile: "You also know that all my goods are sold to the Kuomintang-controlled and Soviet areas, even your businessmen. You have occupied many places now and can dump goods locally, but in the Kuomintang-controlled and Soviet areas, although you also have The products are being sold, but they are much different. And I have been doing business with them for so many years and have smooth channels. You can give the goods to me and I can help you sell them. You can also cooperate with them. You can let your relatives operate it, just give me the goods, and the rest is just waiting to count the money.

But there is one thing: your goods cannot be packaged in Japanese style, but can only be packaged in Western or Chinese styles. You know, our cooperation is not out in the open, it is better to be more secretive. Otherwise, if people from both parties know about it, I'm afraid they will come over and take action on me. There is a man named Pei Min in the Red Party. He is a cruel man. How many people have he killed over the years? I heard that he is in Shanghai. Although the military commander does not have a strong figure like Pei Min, there are still four killers who have been acting frequently recently and their methods are not weak. I am really afraid.

As for how much profit we can get from our cooperation, it depends on what kind of goods you give me. You should be able to trust me in this regard. After all, I have cooperated with the French and some British and Americans for so many years, and I have never had any problems. Your intelligence system is very powerful. You can find out how much money they have made over the years. This is not difficult for you, is it? "

Zhang Xiaolin is dead. Regardless of whether those old guys or young guys come to him, he is the strongest among the Qing Gang, bar none. But now that the situation is unclear, and the Japanese cannot control the situation immediately, then as Omura Akihiro said, those people will definitely come to him to support him in his promotion. Maybe they might want to fool the fool and throw it away after use, but is he, Wang, so easy to trick?

To put it bluntly, now, he is the new generation leader of the Green Gang!

This time Omura Akihiro came over, he didn't really ask him to take Zhang Xiaolin's place. Even fools know it's impossible, how could they not be clear about it. I came here this time just to test his attitude further. This is a normal thing, and it is not only the Chinese who understand that people who are not of my race must have different minds.

What's more, even now, Wang Yan has made it clear that even if he does work for the Japanese, he will not be an enemy of the two parties, and he has even made it clear that he is doing business with the two parties. Zhao Zhao was rebellious, but it was all written on that face that was afraid of death. He said that he would work for whomever has his job. To put it bluntly, it’s not about who is forced to follow whom. If you have breasts, you are a mother. At most, you have a little more persistence than others, and you need more power and wealth to buy it off.

And when he took the initiative to seek business cooperation with the Japanese, it was nothing more than sending money. As his status is higher, he will have to use more money to further deepen the binding. Two hundred thousand dollars can no longer solve the problem.

The main reason is that he also knows the trajectory of the development of the matter. Sooner or later, he will have to really come under the hands of the Japanese. Moreover, even if he is not under their hands, the Japanese control the land and water docks and transportation thoroughfares, and they are still pinching his neck. For further binding, you can also get further preferential treatment. Toll fees will definitely drop again. After all, the money saved goes into the pockets of the senior Japanese government officials in Shanghai. How could they not care about their own money.

In fact, they also have channels to deliver goods to the Kuomintang-controlled areas. If not, there would not be so many Japanese goods in the Kuomintang-controlled areas now. It's just that compared to their production capacity, they sell less goods. Their penetration into the Kuomintang-controlled areas is not weak, but they are unable to use those forces to make commercial profits, which would expose their power.

That's why Wang Yan was given a chance, otherwise he wouldn't have had any share in it, let alone covertly changing the packaging.

Omura Akihiro ate a table of sumptuous delicacies in silence. After a while, he put down his chopsticks and picked up his wine glass: "I want to go back and tell them all. After all, your transportation capacity is limited, and you can't tell how to distribute the goods. Anyway, thank you for your friendship, cheers.”

"You're welcome, but Mr. Omura, I need a detailed list then. You should understand that I always need to know who my friends are, right?"

"Of course, drink."

Omura Akihiro raised his head and drank the small cup of wine in his hand. He left a farewell message and contacted him later, then simply got up and left.

Seeing Little Japan leaving, Qi Si, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, came over with tableware, looked at the food on the table, waved to the manager in the distance, and when he came over, he pointed to the food in front of him and said: "Put these Give all the food to the beggars and tell them there will be more later, do you understand? Give me a new table!"

Wang Yan didn't say anything about the stupid boy's self-assertion, he just smiled. He just watched the waiters going back and forth, and then turned to look at the little beggar with a silly grin outside.

It wasn't until the food in front of him was cleared and a few cold dishes were served again that he slowly ate and drank, and said funnyly: "Si'er, you have to learn to control your emotions. There are many people in this store, you know who Is it a Japanese spy? If they report back, they will cause trouble for us. Have you been hanging out with those Chihua students in Datong recently and been affected? "

"How is that possible?" Qi Si waved his hands repeatedly: "I just don't want to eat the food that little Japan has eaten. Besides, I don't believe they don't know my past. Children hold grudges the most, so it's not unjustifiable for me to do this. Use What you taught me is to maintain consistency and maintain your own inherent impression in the eyes of outsiders.”

"You..." Wang Yan nodded at him with his chopsticks, shook his head and smiled: "You have grown up, and I don't know whether it was right or wrong to force you to study in the first place."

"Of course that's right. If you don't know how to read or read, you're blind. You can't even understand the story in the picture book." Facing the deep, see-through eyes of the good brother, they all shrank their necks and said dumbly. He straightened his neck and changed the subject: "Brother Yan, are we really doing business for the Japanese?"

"When a person reaches a certain position, many things are out of his control and he has no choice. You have heard that Zhang Xiaolin is dead. I am the biggest among the Qing Gang. If we don't get closer to the Japanese, how can they rest assured? Are you willing to give up? , What you give up is what you gain. Besides, we don’t give up anything, we just have a looser attitude. We don’t lose money when we do business with the Japanese. What, do you have any objection?”

"How dare I? It's not that I can't understand and study."

Wang Yan looked at him deeply, shook his head again, said nothing, and continued to eat and drink.

He was certain that even if Qi Si had not joined the Red Party, he would still have to be a peripheral member. As he said, this kid had been hanging out with him at Datong University for so long, so he was influenced by it.

Qi Si hated the Japanese because of his childhood. With the propaganda of the Red Party, it didn't take much effort to confuse this kid, from individuals to nations, from small families to big families. This is different from the so-called gangsters. Qi Si is not without a heart, otherwise he would not be alive today. It's just that he suffered and wandered since childhood, and he has a greater resonance with the ideal of communism.

Of course, it is mainly because of Wang Yan that he didn't become a purely selfish person. Instead, he made him the boss and protected those homeless beggars who were younger than him. When he was a child, he wanted to hold an umbrella for others when he was caught in the rain. He has developed the spirit of selflessness since he was a child.

In addition, he is Wang Yan's personal driver, who takes him wherever he goes and knows everything. So in the eyes of the Red Party members who don't know Wang Yan, this kid is of great value.

Wang Yan simply mentioned a few words and didn't say anything else. He just wanted to make this kid more alert, and he didn't mean to stop Qi Si from joining the Red Party. In this era, no one can be immune to it, and no one can survive. It depends on fate...

Dishes were served one after another. Wang Yan was thinking about things in a mess. After a while, he saw a middle-aged man in a long gown and a little fat coming straight to him.

Walking to the table, the man bowed and clasped his fists in a gangster style: "I am a disciple of Feng Nairong, Yue Jinshan, meeting Inspector Wang."

Wang Yan glanced at him and continued to eat: "What's going on?"

Of course, Yue Jinshan would not care about Wang Yan's attitude. At any time and any place, Wang Yan would slap him twice, and he would have to laugh. This is a huge gap in power and status. Of course, he can also yell angrily if he wants to die.

It's just that Wang Yan won't do that. There is no such thing as bullying. It's embarrassing.

Yue Jinshan took out an invitation from his bosom and humbly presented it to Wang Yan: "Tomorrow at noon, Feng Nairong and the other six heads of the family, as well as several seniors, invite you to have lunch at Guangsheng Teahouse in the French Concession. You must honor me and attend the banquet."

"Got it."

"Jinshan, goodbye." Yue Jinshan respectfully placed the invitation on the empty space on the table, bowed and took a step back, then turned around and left. The whole action was quite realistic.

Wang Yan looked at Yue Jinshan's back, shook his head and smiled. Although he had thought of these things before, he still couldn't help laughing. He was going to become a gangster leader again...
