"I...I'm talking about Old Tang, if I don't call you Old Master, don't call me Ye Ye either. Even if we are old friends, can you call me Ye Tian?"
Although Ye Tian knew that this was the rule of the Qing Gang, he couldn't change his mind when he was called "Master" by an old man in his seventies. Privately, he was okay with it. If it was still the same when he went out, he would be the target of public criticism.
"Is that so?"
Tang Wenyuan pondered for a moment and then said: "Okay, just follow Ye Ye, no...just do what you say, but Ye Tian, if you really hand the red sticker to the main hall in the future, I will still call you
Ye Ye’s…”
"We'll talk about the rest later. Just remove the word you..."
Ye Tian shook his head in distress. He didn't want to join the club. Today, he was in a rush and had to shake off the fact that his master was a leader of the Qing Gang in his early years. However, Ye Tian never thought about joining the Qing Gang or joining the Qing Gang.
From Hongmen.
You know, after liberation, many of the Youth Gang leaders left the country, and the Youth Gang that was deeply rooted in Shanghai was almost uprooted.
In modern times, the Qinggang is not well evaluated by various records or film and television media. In the eyes of many people, the Qinggang is equivalent to the underworld.
As a "Master Ye" who was born under the red flag and grew up in New China, of course he was not willing to degenerate and join such an organization. Even if the old Taoist wrote a red sticker to him, Ye Tian just couldn't bear to brush off his master's
Just good intentions.
However, Ye Tian didn't know that the Qing Gang today was no longer the same as in the past.
After the Qing Gang members left the country, most of them went to Taiwan and established a legal society, the "China Peace and Care Society", which almost completely replicated the grand scene of the Qing Gang in Shanghai. Many members of the military, police and entertainment circles
The person is a disciple of the Youth Gang.
There are also some people who went to Hong Kong and the United States and merged into Hongmen. They have great influence in Chinese gathering places in many cities in the United States, that is, people like Luo Zhiping in front of them.
And unlike the early years when protection fees were collected in Shanghai, now both the Qinggang and Hongmen are vigorously developing industries and have a very strong economic foundation, and Tang Wenyuan is one of the leaders.
Of course, even if Ye Tian joins the Qinggang, the above benefits will not matter to him. The most he can do is to receive warm hospitality from the gang members.
"Ye Tian, look, let's forget about it for now..."
After knowing Ye Tian's identity, Tang Wenyuan's arrogance has completely disappeared. Older people like him still care about the rules and regulations of the gang. Although Ye Tian does not allow him to address himself as a master, his attitude remains the same.
Very respectful.
"Grandpa..."
Ye Tian didn't let Luo Zhiping stop calling him "Master", and he didn't know Ye Tian's status in Jiang Xiang Sect, so after Tang Wenyuan begged him, he looked at Ye Tian eagerly.
Looking at Luo Zhiping's pitiful look, Ye Tian waved his hand and said: "Jiang Xiang's faction has long become history. Now that you have gone out, don't come back. Luo Zhiping, don't come back to China again..."
Although the Jiangxiang faction in China has long been uprooted, with the improvement of the domestic economy in recent years, the remnants of the Jiangxiang faction hidden among the people have resurfaced.
The blind fortune tellers or Feng Shui masters that can be seen in many places in cities now are actually more or less related to the Jiang Xiang Sect, and the most useless methods are also those of the Jiang Xiang Sect back then.
However, these people now do not have the strict rules and regulations that Jiang Xiang's faction had in the past. They basically fight on their own, and the harm is far less than before.
As for Ye Tian not letting Luo Zhiping come back to the country, he is afraid that he will bring back the old rules of Jiang Xiang's faction and integrate the charlatans who are now scattered in various cities, which will be very harmful to society.
.
"Grandpa...Grandpa, is this...this enough?"
After hearing what Ye Tian said, Luo Zhibing did not react for a moment and committed two major taboos in succession. He did not expect that Ye Tian would let him go so easily.
"Um?"
Ye Tian's face darkened and he said, "What's the matter? Do you want me to open an incense hall and hit you with three swords and six holes?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare, thank you Grandpa, thank you Grandpa..."
Luo Zhiping has been cheating under the guise of fortune telling for more than 40 years and has gained a huge reputation in Chinese gathering areas around the world. He is certainly not the kind of person who has no eyes for him.
On the contrary, Luo Zhiping is not only very observant, but also a good person. However, he is used to being praised abroad, so this time he came to China to show off a little bit.
Ye Tian was afraid that Luo Zhiping would return to China to develop his career. In fact, he was overly worried. Although there were many people in the country, which was extremely beneficial to the development of followers of Jiang Xiang Sect, people of Luo Zhiping's level had been deceived by deception, but they looked down upon those people.
It's a small profit.
You must know that in the overseas Chinese circles, Luo Zhiping is definitely regarded as a fortune-teller. Not only that, if you want him to be counted as a fortune-teller, you must make an appointment at least three months in advance, and the fortune-telling gold will be paid when you make the appointment.
You have to pay, and the style is not ordinary.
Many people think that this is Master Luo's necessary airs, but in fact few people know that this is just a method of Jiang Xiang's faction.
Three months is enough time for Luo Zhiling's people to collect information about fortune tellers, and those people are very experienced, and what they collect are very private things about the parties involved. In this way, Master Luo's reputation is
Naturally, it will last forever.
After the great joy, Luo Zhibing respectfully poured a cup of tea for Ye Tian and said: "Grandpa, although you don't blame the younger ones, juniors must not understand the rules. This is what I received during my visit to Yanjing."
The hexagram gold, please grandpa accept it..."
Along with the tea placed in front of Ye Tian, there was also a cash check for US$100,000. Luo Zhiping would not stay in the country for a long time, so the money that Mr. Gao gave him became US dollars.
In fact, Mr. Gao had already paid the divination gold for the reservation. Since he was asking Master Luo to return to China to perform divination and divination for him, Mr. Gao paid an additional US$100,000.
"What is this for?"
Ye Tian's eyes widened. Although he was extremely tempted by the check on the table, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed to "accept" the check after being called "Grandpa" repeatedly.
Luo Zhiping didn't expect that Ye Tian would turn his face faster than flipping through the book. He couldn't help feeling a little panicked and said quickly: "Grandpa, this is a little thought of being a junior. You...don't think too much..."
According to the rules of Jiangxiang's faction, if someone crosses the limit and violates the taboos of the faction, his hands and feet will be cut off. Even if he fails, he will have to prepare generous gifts and invite him to drink and apologize.
However, only one day after Luo Zhiping returned home, he met a senior and scary "grandfather" who exposed his identity.
In addition, Ye Tian just said that he would not be allowed to develop his strength in the country, how could Luo Zhibing dare to stay in the country for a long time? So he took out this check to honor Ye Tian.
"Ye Tian, just accept it. If you don't accept the money, Luo Zhi... Luo Zhiping won't feel at ease..."
In fact, after hearing the name Jiang Xiangpai, Tang Wenyuan understood the details of Luo Zhiping, and knew that this divine fortune teller, who was famous in the Chinese circle around the world, was actually just a magician.
But no matter what, Luo Zhibing was considered a member of the same family, and he followed him to the country, so Tang Wenyuan still helped him out with a few words.
"Then...well, let's put the money here..."
After hearing what Tang Wenyuan said, Ye Tian agreed without hesitation. Although he was happy in his heart, his face was expressionless. Luo Zhiping looked at him and secretly praised: "He is indeed a master-dad-level figure, and he treats money like dirt.
ah?"
However, if Luo Zhiping knew that "Master Ye" was now poor and waiting for rice to cook, I wonder what kind of wonderful expression would appear on his face?
Seeing Ye Tian accept the check, Tang Wenyuan was relieved. If Ye Tian didn't accept it, it meant that the matter had not been revealed. Luo Zhiping would have to leave at least a little finger to understand the matter.
After resolving Luo Zhibing's matter, Tang Wenyuan suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, Ye...Ye Tian, Ronaldinho is going to Taiwan to invite Hongmen people there to attend the event in San Francisco next month.
Do you want to attend the Hongmen Promise Conference held?"
In 1992, the United States held the 3rd World Hongmen General Conference. After two days of discussion with more than 100 representatives from all over the world, the World Hongmen General Conference was adopted and the World Hongmen General Conference was established.
This time, the Hongmen Association in the city has included various gangs that are branches of the Tiandihui all over the world, including the Green Gang in Taiwan and Hong Kong.
Luo Zhiping is not only a "world-renowned" "numerology master" in the Chinese circle, but also a powerful faction in the Hongmen Association. The fact that he was sent to Taiwan to invite the Youth Gang bosses this time is also because Hongmen attaches great importance to this branch.
"Hongmen Congress?"
Ye Tian was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. The image of gangsters wearing various black suits and sunglasses suddenly appeared in his mind. He couldn't help sweating on his forehead. He waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Old Tang, I didn't say I wanted to join Hongmen. You have to do this today."
Don’t spread the word to me. If I hear any news in the future, I will have to settle the score with you two..."
"this?"
Tang Wenyuan hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Ye Tian's resolute attitude, he could only shake his head and said: "Well, since you don't want to, forget it, but Ye Tian, I still hope you can return to your clan and recognize your ancestors and join the
From Hongmen..."
"Sure, I'll think about it. What's more, Old Tang, I have something to do at home, so I'll go back first, and I'll serve you a drink next time I come."
Within two hours of arriving, not only did he meet two grandsons of Hongmen, but he was also almost deceived into the underworld. Ye Tian didn't want to stay here any longer. If he made a wrong step in his career, he would be in trouble for the rest of his life.
