Since the beginning of the industry, fighting for docks and appearances has been happening almost every day, but the initiative to transfer land, especially the large-scale transfer and withdrawal of land, is definitely the first of its kind.
On that day, the Qinggang and the Santonghui retreated on a large scale, abandoning all the territory in the French Concession and the Chinese Territory, leaving it to Su Yi's people to take over.
Su Yi defeated the enemy without fighting, which once again cast a layer of legend on the name Geng Liangchen, making people in Jinmen talk about it and marvel at it.
The Qinggang and Santonghui had lost both dignity and face. Li Dasen and Wu Zantong hated Su Yi so much that their teeth itched with hatred.
Jia Changqing learned the lesson and took the initiative to apply to Li Dasen to give up the benefits of his own business and hand it over to others in the gang.
He felt that he could not defeat Su Yi, and he did not want to continue fighting with such a ruthless person.
Li Dasen hated the iron and said: "You shouldn't have retreated! Okay, you gave up on dozens of foot shops in the French Concession and the Chinese Circle without firing a shot! How the hell did you give up on the three northeastern provinces without firing a shot?"
What’s the difference between Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Xueliang? He’s a coward! He’s so cowardly!”
"Even if you burn down the whole shop, you can't just leave it to him!"
"How infertile is Geng Liangchen? Why are you afraid of him? If we can't defeat him, we'll assassinate him. If we can't kill him, we'll poison him. If the poison doesn't kill him, we'll continue to poison him!"
"When you forced someone into despair, you never thought of sparing his life. Now that someone has gained the upper hand, why do you think they will let you go? You can be considered a veteran of the world.
Don’t you understand the principle of leaving oneself alone?”
"Do it! Do it with him! If you don't do it, how can we resolve our grudges? If Geng Liangchen doesn't die, we will die!"
Jia Changqing still hesitated: "Old man, how about I apologize to him in person..."
"Excuse me!" Li Dasen was so angry, "Why did I accept such an unsatisfactory thing like you? Let's go! Follow me to find Wu Zantong. If you don't straighten Geng Liangchen's hair, there are three of us.
It’s not going to get better!”
Jia Changqing may not be good at anything, but there is one thing he is good about, and that is listening to his master.
But before the master and apprentice could go to the Japanese Concession to find Wu Zantong, one of his disciples ran over in a panic: "It's not good! It's not good!"
"How can you behave in a panic?" Li Dasen scolded angrily, "If you have something to say, can the sky fall down?"
The sky really fell.
Since this morning, except for the goods of foreign devils and Zhepeng people, the gangs under the Qinggang and Santonghui have not carried a single piece of Chinese businessmen's goods!
The Chinese businessmen seemed to have made an appointment. There were goods arriving at the port, and the goods were even piled up on the street, but they would rather just leave them there instead of using their Liba to transport the goods.
The goods of foreign devils and Zhepeng merchants only account for about 30% of the total cargo throughput in normal times, and the remaining 70% is basically the goods of Chinese merchants.
In other words, 70% of the business was suddenly reduced this morning, and at least 70% of the Liba people were in a dilemma of having no work to do.
If the Liba people have no work to do, they have no food to eat. How can that be a good thing?
Now all the Lipas under the Qinggang and Santonghui have gathered anxiously to seek an explanation from them.
"Liang Yanqing! It must be Liang Yanqing's fault!" Jia Changqing was surprised, "How dare this old man take advantage of the situation and rob him? Who gave him the courage?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's that bastard Geng Liangchen!" Li Dasen's expression was very bad. He had just told Jia Changqing that he wanted to give Geng Liangchen a good look, but before he could take action, okay, he just drained the pot.
, I’ll take care of your lair first.
If this matter is not handled well, the promise they made to the Liba people yesterday will turn into nothing. These Liba people will never follow them again, and they will only run to Geng Liangchen.
"Geng Liangchen, do you really want to kill everyone?" Li Dasen's eyes turned green with hatred.
Li Dasen and Jia Changqing had headaches, and Wu Zantong even more.
Because the Japanese Concession is the "private land" of Santonghui, Santonghui is still the dominant one in this place until now, especially in the field of footwear, Wu Zantong's business is a monopoly.
But starting from this morning, all the goods of Chinese merchants will not enter the Japanese Concession!
All Chinese businessmen’s ships no longer berth at the docks in the Japanese Concession!
This is simply a fatal thing!
He is not like Li Dasen and Jia Changqing, who only need to answer to the Liba people, he also has to answer to the Taijuns!
If the freight does not come in, the princes will not listen to reasons and excuses and will only cause trouble for him.
No, the housekeepers of Mitsui and Futian Trading Company came to him early in the morning. Each of them slapped him in the face several times and threatened him to solve the problem of cargo transportation as soon as possible.
He didn't dare to have any reaction other than saying "Hi".
Wu Zantong and Li Dasen called Liang Yanqing almost at the same time, but the housekeeper An Yun told them that the master has gone out and is now at the headquarters of your Jinmen Transportation Association.
There is no doubt that this must be Geng Liangchen's fault.
They hurriedly sent people to investigate, and this investigation really revealed some bad news that they absolutely did not want to hear.
At the footwear headquarters, Liang Yanqing and other representatives of the chamber of commerce held a press conference with Su Yi, An Yufeng, Zheng Shanao, Qian Jin and other footwear representatives. A commercial contract for in-depth cooperation between the chamber of commerce and the footwear industry was signed on the spot.
The contract not only stipulates the handling fees and payment procedures charged by foot shops, but also stipulates that the chamber of commerce can only cooperate with foot shops with signboards with the word "Geng" and can only use the help of companies with signboards with the word "Geng".
They carry goods.
Almost at the same time that the contract was signed, all the major footwear businesses under the Hong Gang, Wuxing and Zhongyi Society put up signs with the word "Geng" on them.
"Geng Liangchen, you Geng Liangchen, you are so immoral and smoking hot!" Li Dasen was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and he was filled with hatred in his heart.
Now if they want to continue the foot business, they must ask Su Yi to let their foot shop hang a sign with the word "Geng" on it.
If you think about it with your nose, you will know that this must be conditional.
Wu Zantong quickly called Li Dasen: "Mr. Li, the situation is obvious now. Geng Liangchen wants to be the leader!"
"He grabbed the position that should have belonged to you," Li Dasen said in a straight-forward manner, "Are you so willing to give up your position to others?"
"Don't provoke me yet, I'm not stupid." Wu Zantong sneered, "The man named Geng is in the limelight. If I fight him now, I am going against the trend. I will kill the first bird. I will wait for him to be provoked. Look.
When will he be finished?"
It sounds tough to say it, but actually I still have to give in.
"Now that he has made it clear that he wants us to submit to him, I don't know if you can afford it, Mr. Li, but I can't afford it." Wu Zantong said, "At least we can fight side by side for once, and I can give you a word.
You are mentally prepared, that's all."
After hanging up the phone, Li Dasen's face turned extremely gloomy.
Wu Zantong is convinced!
It was natural for Wu Zantong to give in. Wu Zantong relied on the Zhepeng people in the Japanese Concession for a living. The foot business was only an important part of him, not everything to him.
But there must be no problem with his walking, otherwise he would not be able to explain it to the Zhepeng people.
So even if it was for Taijun Zhe Peng, Wu Zantong had to hold his nose and swallow his anger.
What about the Qing Gang?
If they fight hard to the end, the result is likely that the Qinggang will completely lose the foot business.
This is definitely not what Li Dasen wants to see. After all, even if the income from the foot business has been cut in half because of Su Yi, it is still an astronomical figure. Li Dasen cannot let these benefits go in vain.
"Master, how about we endure it?" Jia Changqing advised, "It's better to endure the calm for a while. It's not a good thing for people like Geng Liangchen to have too much limelight. Let's just wait for him to kill himself. Look,
Sooner or later he will be unlucky, and we have to argue with a person who is bound to die. Bear with it until he is unlucky, and then he will be pushed down by the wall and beaten by thousands of people!"
"Geng, let's ride on the donkey and read the songbook, we'll see!" Li Dasen gritted his teeth and said a harsh word, then walked away, leaving the mess to Jia Changqing again.
At noon that day, Jia Changqing and Wu Zantong visited Su Yi. Su Yi did not turn them away this time and invited them in.
After the two sides talked for more than ten minutes, the guests and hosts left happily.
Yixiantian asked Su Yi very strangely: "They are already at the end of their rope, why not just drive them away and kill them all? If we keep them, they will be a disaster."
"It's not the time yet." Su Yi shook his head and said, "I don't want to leave a way for them to live, but if they die, officially and in the concession, from now on they will think that I am a ruthless person who must retaliate against others. Even if I become the
Dragon Head, I'm afraid it won't go well either."
Su Yi still has an unfinished task of performing "Pleasure Enmity". He wants to kill Wu Zantong and Jia Changqing more than anyone else, but not now. His first task now is to be a footwear leader. Everything else has to wait for him.
Let’s talk after we gain a firm foothold.
"Have you contacted the hospital?" Su Yi suddenly asked.
"The contact has been made." Xiantian knew what Su Yi was asking, and nodded, "There is a doctor named Lighthouse at Peking Union Medical College Hospital who is best at treating injuries like Master Chen. My client told this foreign doctor about Master Chen.
He was very concerned about my injury and said he would have time for consultation at any time."
"That's good." Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "You go to Mr. Zheng and ask him to help find a car, and then you personally send my senior brother to Peking and help me take care of him."
"It will take you a lot of time to get there." Yixiantian frowned, "Then what should you do?"
"Don't worry." Su Yi smiled, "No one in Jinmen dares to touch me now."
In the afternoon of the same day, Wu Zantong and Jia Changqing once again invited the major forces in the footwear industry to gather at the footwear headquarters.
The forces traveling in all directions have now become the forces in six directions.
At the meeting, Wu Zantong and Jia Changqing jointly proposed to select a new walking leader, and they unanimously recommended Geng Liangchen to take on this important task.
"I've lived so long that I can see everything." An Yufeng said sarcastically, "This is the first time I've seen someone give up the leading position to someone else. How do you feel, Boss Wu?"
"Humph, you should worry about yourself!" Wu Zantong was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Passed unanimously, Su Yi successfully became the new leader of the footwear industry!
As a reward for "conforming to the dragon", Su Yi also agreed to the actions of the Qinggang and Santonghui, and could also put up a sign with the word "Geng".
Of course, the Qinggang and Santonghui's foot shops reopened, and goods continued to circulate.
Since then, the month-long battle for the lead in walking has come to an end.
Geng Liangchen came to power, which was both unexpected and reasonable.
"Hello, actor Su Yi, the performance task of the eighth act of the first unit - Foot Walking Hegemony has been completed. Performance evaluation: amazing; reward: 50 director points."
"Hello, actor Su Yi, the performance task of the ninth act of the first unit - Death Race has been completed. Performance evaluation: amazing; reward: 50 director points."
"Hello, actor Su Yi, the ultimate performance task of the first unit - No. 1 in Jinmen has been started. Mission description: Geng Liangchen, are you the No. 1 in Jinmen?"
After successfully taking up the position, Su Yi received notifications of the completion of two performance tasks, and also received a notification of the start of the last performance task of the first unit.
So far, Su Yi still has the fifth act to perform the opening of the sect, and the sixth act to perform Ruyi Revenge has not yet been completed. In addition, there is an ultimate task of being the first in Jinmen, and he has accumulated three tasks.
In the next two days, Su Yi was very busy. Not only did he have to deal with the internal affairs of the travel industry, he also had to, as the leader of the travel industry, visit the heads of the concessions and the big shots in the government to finalize the "foot travel business" in the future.
"Tax" issue.
In addition, Su Yi's residence had to be changed. Dozens of people died in his previous residence and it was burned down. Naturally, it was uninhabitable.
Some of his subordinates flattered him and wanted to take over Bayanqing's house and offer it to Su Yi, but Su Yi refused.
He was not used to having servants and housekeepers to serve him, and he did not want to live in such a big house.
He asked people to find a western-style villa in the French Concession and move into it.
He planned to live in this house besides himself, Yi Yiantian and Zhao Dezhu. It was just the three old men and no one else. Su Yi didn't even bother to hire an old lady who could cook.
On the fourth day, Liu Haiqing came back, and Su Yi went to the airport to pick him up in person.
Liu Haiqing's return this time was quite grand, and he brought many people with him, all of whom were his subordinates from Jinling Snare.
In addition to Su Yi, people from Yu Xuezhong also came to pick up Liu Haiqing.
He was Yu Xuezhong's adjutant, and he and Su Yi were old acquaintances. The two of them chatted and laughed together while waiting for the plane to land.
After Liu Haiqing arrived, the adjutant informed Liu Haiqing of his intention, saying that Yu Xuezhong wanted to see him immediately.
"Xiao Geng is an acquaintance. Xiao Geng and I would like to ask Commander Yu for some advice. I wonder if it would be convenient to take him with us?" Liu Haiqing asked.
"Of course." The adjutant agreed, "But this will only happen after the commander meets you."
That night, after Yu Xuezhong and Liu Haiqing had a secret conversation, he also summoned Su Yi.
Su Yi proposed the idea of opening a martial arts school and demonstrated some skills and training methods of mixed martial arts, as well as some methods and concepts for training soldiers.
Yu Xuezhong was astonished!
He was very interested and deliberately stayed with Su Yi for dinner. After communicating with Su Yi for several hours about the matter, he agreed to become the honorary principal of Su Yi's new martial arts school and hired Su Yi as a special training consultant for the 51st Army.
