Chapter 203 Chinatown’s Gratitude

The ending of the two people is self-evident, and they disappeared from this world quietly, and even the police reported them missing.

In the end, it was determined that he was absconding in fear of committing the crime of killing Taiyuan Tian. He also found a few scapegoats internally and dismissed him from his post for investigation. This was an explanation to the Taiyuan congressman.

In this way, the triads that oppressed Chinatown and some streets in Shinjuku quietly collapsed.

At dawn in the morning, Ikebukuro Chinatown is bustling with gongs and drums, and the lion and dragon dances are extremely lively.

The Aoki-gumi officially took over Chinatown, and some merchants came to congratulate them, willingly or unwillingly.

After all, they weren't sure what the Aoki group's attitude was towards them.

After a period of excitement, representatives from Chinatown merchants came to the Aoki-gumi's reception room one after another.

They also met the boss of the Aoki group for the first time.

Under a pair of surprised eyes, Li Qing sat on the boss's chair and looked at the merchant representatives with burning eyes.

The merchant representatives did not expect that the young man in front of them turned out to be the boss of the Aoki Group.

"sit!"

Li Qing waved his hand and spoke concisely.

Don't look at the business representatives who claim to be old Jianghu. They have seen all kinds of big shots, but they are very honest.

Everyone squeezed into the small sofa, smiling flatteringly.

"Brother, this is this month's fee." The leader was an old overseas Chinese named Lao Yu, who was about fifty years old.

Li Qing looked at the thick roll of yen in the kraft paper with a corner exposed.

"When the East China Group was here, the fee for each of your shops was 300,000 yen; when the Tainan Group was here, the fee for each of your shops was 500,000 yen.

Not to mention the large and small shops in Chinatown, there are 150 Chinese restaurants alone. In addition, there are also product stores, travel agencies, beauty salons, schools, nurseries, Chinese service companies, real estate, etc.

Do you think we are fools? "

Crow snapped.

He recently used his brain and took a good look at the shops in China Street, and then he realized why so many gangs were robbing China Street.

The flow of people and the number of shops here are not much different from Mong Kok in Xiangjiang.

"Boss, we have already paid the fees twice this month, and we really can't come up with more money."

What Lao Yu said is also true. The East China Group and the Tainan Gang have been exploiting each other continuously, and no matter how good the store is, it cannot survive.

"Take this money back!"

Li Qing's eyes were dull and he said indifferently.

When Lao Yu and others heard this, they were shocked and turned pale. They all stood up and bowed slightly.

"You... if you think it's too little, let's go back and get more!"

Li Qing took a deep breath from the cigarette and exhaled a long column of smoke. "I don't care what others do. My rule is that I only charge the fee once a month. From now on, each store will receive 250,000 yen."

Perhaps the merchants were frightened, and all of them felt uneasy because the Aoki Group did not charge the fees.

"Please accept it, this is a little bit of our thoughts."

"Huh?" Li Qing's expression remained calm and unmoved. "You...are teaching me how to do things?"

The calm tone made Lao Yu and others tremble.

"No...don't dare!"

Lao Yu smiled bitterly and waved his hands repeatedly. This was the first time that he was a gang leader who refused to accept money from others.

Finally, Lao Yu walked out with other merchant representatives.

They didn't dare to breathe loudly until they walked out of the Aoki Group's stronghold. The pressure from the man inside was too great.

"This boss seems to be different from others."

"That's right, we don't even have to pay for it, and the fees have also been reduced."

"His accent sounds like he's from Xiangjiang, maybe it's because he's Chinese."

"Tch~ The East China group is not Chinese? It seems they are not merciless when it comes to collecting money, right?"

The merchants were whispering to each other while walking, and the young men passing by the Aoki group behaved themselves and did not harass the merchants.

"Perhaps, he is really different." Lao Yu murmured softly.

As the days passed slowly, the merchants discovered that the Aoki-gumi was not like the previous violent groups that showed off their power in the streets all day long.

Instead, they patrolled back and forth in Chinatown in twos and threes.

For the little gangsters who come to cause trouble, there is no need for the merchant to ask for help, and members of the Aoki Group will appear within two or three minutes.

Beat up the gangster and throw him out of Chinatown.

Regarding this kind of strange situation, merchants like to discuss it with their arms folded when they have nothing to do.

"Tsk, tsk, it's so miserable. You dare to come to Chinatown to cause trouble."

"Look, that kid peed his pants."

"Oh, let me go, this leg is broken..."

The merchants also gradually accepted the Aoki Group, and even became familiar with the members of the Aoki Group, not to mention the leader of the Aoki Group, Li Qing.

Whenever Li Qing goes out for a walk, there is always a group of merchants surrounding him.

"Master Qing, have you eaten? These are the rice dumplings I just made. Please try them."

"Master Qing, these are the jujubes sent to me by my mother from my hometown. You can use them to replenish your health."

"Don't look at them, Mr. Qing, the Qingming Festival is coming soon, I specially made some Qingtuan, you can take it home and try it."

"I just received a limited edition Rolex. Master Qing, take it and check the time."

The enthusiastic merchants were noisy, and it could be seen from the smiles on their faces that this was not a fake.

They all left their homes and came to Japan in order to make a living, and they were fed up with the oppression, whether they were Chinese or Japanese.

Now the various practices of the Aoki group make them feel an unprecedented sense of security.

They also knew that Li Qing did not lack this.

The things they took out were not valuable, but they represented their sincere intentions.

Crow and Ao had never seen such a scene.

Especially Crow. Every time he went to collect the toll in Hong Kong, people would not dare to show their displeasure, but would spit and call him a jerk behind his back.

He did not expect to be welcomed like this in Japan, which made him a little flattered.

"Thank you, thank you, everyone. I'll just try it."

Li Qing picked some things and put them in Crow's arms, and clasped his fists towards everyone.

The merchants looked at Li Qing's back happily and felt relieved.

"Master Qing, I wish you a long life!"

Old Zhang from the bun shop shouted loudly at Li Qing's back.

Li Qing smiled and waved his hand without looking back.

These people in Chinatown once again believed in the Chinese, and Li Qing also knew that building trust was a difficult process.

He didn't want to change anything, he just wanted to unite the Chinese under the protection of the Aoki Group. Only by building an iron barrel together, his Aoki Group could take root in Japan.

"By the way, Ao, how is the matter of the Chinese gathering place that I asked you to inquire about?"

Li Qing suddenly remembered something.

To take root in Japan, the most important thing is to create a gathering place for Chinese people, just like Chinatown in the United States.

Only such a place is suitable for the growth of Chinese communities, especially in an extremely xenophobic country like Japan.

"Brother, there are two houses that can't be handled."

"Huh?"

"It seems to involve Sumiyoshi-kai!"
