Opening a martial arts school cannot be accomplished with just a slap on the forehead. At least now it is just a piece of cake, a piece of cake for Zheng Shanao.
Of course, this is also Su Yi's goal. His performance task of "establishing a sect" is intended to be completed in this way.
For a young man in his twenties to start a sect, he is afraid of many difficulties and dangers. However, with Zheng Shanao at the top, there is almost no resistance in this regard.
Including when he implemented the quick method, Zheng Shanao helped him withstand the counterattacks of Jinmen martial arts and even the national martial arts.
After meeting Chen Shi, Su Yi met Su Zhenzhi, the shopkeeper of Dengyinglou, at Xiaobailou.
He put the US dollars worth 30,000 yuan converted into oceans on the table, pushed it in front of the other party, and said with a smile: "Boss Su, would you like to order?"
Su Zhenzhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Yi with a complex expression, shook his fists at him, and said with emotion: "They say there are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames. Xiao Mengchang Geng Liangchen is really well-deserved."
!”
"Xiao Mengchang?" Su Yi was also stunned, "Do I have this nickname?"
"Yes, who on the streets of Jinmen doesn't know that you, Geng Liangchen, are eager for justice and philanthropic?" Su Zhenzhi said.
People named Xiao Mengchang are either part-timers or die early. Whose protagonist is named Xiao Mengchang?
Su Yi took a sip of tea, smiled brightly, and shook his head.
Su Zhenzhi directly collected the money without counting it.
He continued to Su Yi: "The renovation of Dengying Tower will take about a month. Mr. Geng, please be sure to be there on the day Dengying Tower reopens. Su sincerely invites you to cut the ribbon for Dengying Tower!"
"This is boss Su's promotion of me. How can I not be self-aware?" Su Yi refused with a smile, "When the time comes, Mr. Su will arrive and the ceremony will be held. Forget about cutting the ribbon!"
Su Zhenzhi hurriedly tried to persuade him, but Su Yi was adamant, so he had no choice but to give up.
The custom of ribbon-cutting originated from the West. Since China also has a saying of "gambling head", this Western scene was quickly accepted by the people. Inviting important people to cut the ribbon has become the most fashionable process for opening a business.
Of course, this is only limited to large businesses. If you cut the ribbon for small businesses, it will be like being a monkey and making people laugh at generosity.
Being invited to be the ribbon-cutting person is a symbol of status and honor in itself, but Su Yi doesn't need it and has no interest in being in the limelight on such things. Socializing and seeing off is already his limit, let alone other things?
But in Su Zhenzhi's eyes, Su Yi's refusal was a sign of his "humility and low-keyness".
Su Yi's current reputation and power on the street have always confirmed what he and Su Zhenzhi said back then, making Su Zhenzhi convinced that Su Yi's compensation of 30,000 yuan to him was really just for the word "letter"
.
Otherwise, this person who even Liu Deshan said would be abolished, and who Liu Haiqing mobilized a battalion of troops to protect, would he be afraid of his little Su Zhenzhi?
To put it bluntly, if Su Yi falls in love with Dengyinglou and steals something from Su Zhenzhi, he will not be in their eyes at all.
This made Su Zhenzhi admire Su Yi even more and felt that this person was really of noble character and chivalrous.
If one of them wants to make friends and the other has another purpose, they will naturally have a good time talking to each other.
During this period, Su Zhenzhi thought about it and mentioned the Chamber of Commerce's plan to support his power in the industry.
"Liang Hongsheng, the boss of the Dagu Shipbuilding Pier. I wonder if Mr. Geng knows this person?" Su Zhenzhi asked.
"I know this man," Su Yi nodded, "It is said that he is Liang Yanqing's nephew."
Dagu is an important town in Jinmen with dense docks and is the most prosperous place for foot traffic. The forces of various gangs in this place are intertwined and very complicated. Among them, there is a place that is considered a "pure land" for businessmen, and it is the richest man in Jinmen, Liang Yanqing.
The self-built Dagu Shipyard Pier.
The special thing about this place is that it is said to be the territory of the foot industry, and it is indeed, because this terminal also has to pay contributions to the foot industry, but the amount is much lower.
To say that it is not the territory of the footwear industry is not really the case, because most of the workers at this pier are workers who have signed contracts with the Liang family. They only serve the Liang family's shops and are considered the private property of the Liang family.
This kind of situation can be regarded as a scorpion in the foot industry - a poisonous one.
So Su Yi really knows this person.
Liang Hongsheng also went to the last walking conference convened by Liu Deshan. At that time, he was under the command of Jia Changqing of the Youth Gang.
Why would he stand on the territory of the Qing Gang?
Because Liang Yanqing could barely be considered a member of the Qinggang, but he had never submitted a post or paid homage to his master, so he was considered a peripheral member.
Liang Hongsheng was protected by the Qinggang in his career.
When Su Zhenzhi mentioned this person, and then thought of the last conversation between him and Su Zhenzhi, Su Yi immediately understood what was going on.
Not only did he not feel depressed about making a wedding dress for others, he actually sneered in his heart.
The people in the Chamber of Commerce really don’t understand the cruelty of the struggle for interests on the street. From the beginning, they have made it clear that they want to participate in the interests of foot traffic. Those gangs who regard them as fat sheep will soon teach them.
How to be a good person.
At that time, Liang Yanqing would not be able to save face because he had "crossed the line."
"That's right, Mr. Geng, I was inspired by your words last time. Our Chamber of Commerce also plans to take a share of this footwork dispute." Su Zhenzhi smiled and cupped his hands, "Mr. Geng, I have a cruel request.
…”
Su Yi stretched out his hand to stop what Su Zhenzhi wanted to say and said with a smile: "I know what Boss Su wants to say. This matter is not urgent. Let's wait and see."
When Su Zhenzhi came to her mouth, she stifled it back and nodded helplessly: "Okay, Mr. Geng."
The two chatted for a few more words and then separated.
Not long after returning to Dingzigu Pier, two groups of people came one after another. One wave was from the Hong Gang, a confidant of Jiang Banruo, the leader of Jinmen Mountain of the Hong Gang, and brought a piece of beautiful jade wrapped in fine silk.
"Is this jade a gift from your Lord Jiang Shan? Not from Boss An?" Su Yi was a little surprised.
"Yes, it was sent by Master Jiangshan." The visitor said respectfully.
Jiang Banruo is the mountain leader of the Hong Gang in Jinmen, and his status and seniority are equivalent to Li Dasen. This man's life is quite legendary. He was born into a wealthy family, served as a school supervisor while studying at Nankai University, and also participated in the Revolution of 1911
, joined the fruit party.
Later, when I went to study in Frank, I met Mr. Situ, the leader of the Hong Gang, and developed a relationship with the Hong Gang.
After returning to China, Jiang Banruo became the head of the Guo Party's Tianjin liaison. He was regarded as a veteran figure and had a bright future in the officialdom.
But just when everyone was optimistic about him, he escaped into Buddhism and became a monk.
The name Jiang Prajna, which has a Zen meaning, was given at this time.
Not long after he became a monk, Jiang Banruo returned to secular life and opened a Yude Academy to teach and educate people. At the same time, he became the mountain master of the Jinmen Hong Gang, and An Yufeng was his confidant.
This man was different from Li Dasen. He was a man of great national integrity and had secretly helped our party. Later, when Zhepeng occupied Tianjin, he was wanted by the Zhepeng people and had to escape from Tianjin.
Su Yi and Jiang Banruo had never met each other, and although this person was the leader of the Hong Gang, he was more like a "spiritual leader" and was not responsible for specific things. Instead, he focused on dealing with scholars.
It is said that he has been studying the literature and history of Jinmen for the past year.
Could it be that a dispute about walking disturbed this hermit in the market and made him notice Geng Liangchen?
Su Yi felt a lot of novelty in his heart and said with a smile: "Jade and silk are trustworthy. Lord Jiang Shan wants me and the Hong Gang to live in peace and not attack each other?"
The visitor also smiled and said: "Master Jiangshan said, if you can guess his intention, let me say one more thing."
"I'd like to hear the details," Su Yi said.
"Mr. Geng will make great strides in the future, and the Hong Gang will not be an obstacle." The visitor said slowly.
Su Yi's heart was slightly shaken, his expression slowly calmed down, and he said seriously: "What else did Master Jiang Shan say?"
The visitor shook his head.
"Mr. Geng knows about it. Thank you Lord Jiangshan for my kindness. If you don't give up, I will pay you a visit one day." Su Yi cupped his hands and said.
"The words will be brought to you, Mr. Geng, and I will say goodbye."
Looking at the man's leaving figure, Su Yi thought for a moment and couldn't help but smile.
In fact, if you look carefully at what Su Yi has done, there are traces to follow. A smart and wise person will look at the essence of this footwork dispute and find that so far, each sect seems to have gained a fair and reasonable harvest.
, in fact, it was Su Yi who made the most profit and benefited the most.
Because for other forces, the benefits are just the icing on the cake, but for Su Yi, they are something from scratch.
Jiang Banruo, whose name exudes the charm of a wise man, suddenly said the word "Yu Yue". First, he guessed that Su Yi would not be lonely in this footwork dispute. Second, he wanted to test Su Yi's attitude and intention. Third, he wanted to test Su Yi's attitude and intention.
Express goodwill.
After the people from the Hong Gang came, Ma Wenyuan from the Iron Flag Society also sent people. What this dear friend sent was a common thing - three small yellow croakers.
The words are also very straightforward: "This is the meeting gift from our caravan leader to Master Geng. In addition, the caravan leader has two words for me to convey. First, the Iron Banner Club and Master Geng are good neighbors and we should join the team to keep warm."
Yes; secondly, Wu Zantong from the Santonghui called the caravan leader and asked the caravan leader to join him in grabbing Mr. Geng's territory, but the caravan leader refused."
Su Yi accepted the little yellow croaker and told him: "Go back and tell your horse gang leader that I, Geng Liangchen, will not do anything to take advantage of others."
Ma Wenyuan came to express his goodwill to Su Yi at this time because the two companies were adjacent to each other. Once Su Yi planned to expand, Tieqi would be the first to bear the brunt, so it was a good choice.
Ma Wenyuan never wanted to be an enemy of a ruthless person like Su Yi who defeated Liu Deshan on the spot, so he simply showed weakness first and then provoked.
The footwork leader is still unresolved, and it will be a matter of time before another dispute occurs. It is only because everyone is carving up and digesting Liu Deshan's territory that it falls into a short-term peace.
But this is just a false appearance. The ambitious forces of all parties have long been secretly preparing to take action and are ready to take action at any time.
In the afternoon of that day, the Qing Gang and the Hong Gang took the lead in arguing. Gangs from both sides had conflicts over the division of territory. Hundreds of people gathered on the street and started fighting.
Later, the Iron Banner Society and the Three Tonghui also fought. The former wiped out several of the latter's activities in the British Concession, almost clearing the power of the Three Tonghui out of the British Concession. These territories were originally
It belonged to the Iron Banner Society, but was later taken over by the Santong Society. Ma Wenyuan could be considered as regaining his lost ground.
Then the Baijia Gang took the opportunity to launch an attack and went to fight for Wu Xing's wharf. However, they failed to steal the chicken and were beaten by Wu Xing's people and fled in embarrassment.
Within a day, no one touched the territory except Zhongyishe and Su Yi, and the whole trip was reduced to a pot of porridge.
Needless to say, no one from the Zhongyi Society dared to compete with the vicious dogs raised by the government.
As for Su Yi, Jia Changqing from the Youth Gang is now extremely wary of Su Yi and doesn't want to provoke him.
The Hong Gang and the Iron Banner Society have already expressed goodwill, and there is little chance of breaking the warm-hearted agreement.
Zhongyishe and Wuxing are considered their own people.
Only the Santonghui and the Baijia Gang were potential threats to Su Yi. But Wu Zantong and Zhai Lili would never easily provoke this ruthless man who defeated Liu Deshan in public.
Su Yi's territory has become a rare "pure land" in the travel industry, but a group of powerful men under his command are eager to get involved and seem to want to get involved in this dispute. Some people even come to Su Yi to "ask for a fight."
The reason why they did this was that they were very optimistic about Geng Liangchen and wanted to follow Su Yi's lead.
Secondly, because of Su Yi's several expansions, both his subordinates and the Liba people have benefited.
Finally, heroes emerge from troubled times. Those who are unwilling to be mediocre will like this kind of "troubled times" where you compete with each other.
But Su Yi verbally rejected these people, and ordered and restrained his top leaders not to take the initiative to stir up trouble. Not only that, he also patrolled his territory, began to clean up the interior, eliminate some unstable factors, and win people's hearts at the same time.
While others were eager to expand, Su Yi was busy repairing internal affairs and pretending to be content with being a wealthy man. This made many people who were wary of him relax.
That night, the unrest became more intense. Fighting between the Qing and Hong gangs broke out all over the place. People were fighting for the footpath piers. Liba armed with wooden sticks could be seen everywhere on the streets.
On this day, the streets of Jinmen were filled with loud shouts of killing, and all the patrol policemen hid and no one was seen.
Early the next morning, shocking news came - Ma Wenyuan was dead!
This gang leader who had just given Su Yi three small yellow croakers, saying he wanted to have "good neighborly relations" with Su Yi, was found tragically dead at home!
Also killed with him was his lover. The woman suffered humiliation and died, and Ma Wenyuan was disemboweled. The scene was horrific.
Before the people of the Iron Banner Association could digest the bad news, the Three Tonghui and the Baijia Gang took the lead in launching an attack and began to encroach on the Iron Banner Association's territory.
Soon after, the Qinghong Gang also joined the ranks of carving up the cake with a tacit understanding. Even the Wu Xing and Zhongyi Club were not exempt from the custom and soon joined in.
Only Su Yi remained unmoved. Even when facing the territory that was so close to him, he refrained from taking action and watched helplessly as it was allowed to be occupied by the Baijia Gang.
In just one morning, the arrogant Iron Flag Society in the French Concession and the British Concession disappeared into thin air and became history completely.
