As one of Huang Huangrong's four great kings, Lin Tianyu is in charge of more than a dozen opium dens in the western part of the concession. He is also a figure in Shanghai. Although he dare not say that stomping his feet can cause an earthquake in Shanghai, he is not someone who takes it easy.
Dare to provoke, but just two days ago, Lin Tianyu was arrested by the newly established patrol camp.
Seriously speaking, Lin Tianyu was actually quite unjust.
What happened was that a group of refugees from Shandong formed an Iron Fist Gang and tried to control a section of Priest Road. But the problem was that all the blocks in the entire concession had already been occupied by various gangs. The gangs that originally controlled this area
How could the gangs in the neighborhood give way willingly?
So the negotiation failed, and the two gangs finally started filming.
However, the strength of these two gangs is relatively close, so in the end neither side can bear it. Because if the consumption continues, both gangs will suffer heavy losses. In the end, they can only give others an advantage. However, the two sides have become incompetent and have a serious lack of trust.
Therefore, we can only ask the leaders of the Qing Gang to come forward to host the peace talks.
On the first day of the severe crackdown, the Iron Fist Gang and another gang happened to be setting up a banquet in Fumanlou, and invited Lin Tianyu, one of Huang Huangrong's four great kings, to come and make peace.
For this kind of thing, Lin Tianyu was of course happy to accept the invitation. However, less than half a minute after Lin Tianyu arrived at Fuman Building, and before he could say anything, the officers and soldiers from the patrol battalion rushed in like tigers and wolves, and then involuntarily opened up the restaurant.
The gangsters inside were beaten up, and Lin Tianyu was not spared.
Soon, Lin Tianyu and the gangsters from the two gangs were arrested and sent to the patrol camp.
After being held in a dark and humid cell in the patrol camp for two days, Lin Tianyu was finally released. However, the Lin family threw a hundred thousand yuan into the ocean in order to get Lin Tianyu out! After Lin Tianyu came out, he had to
After learning the truth, I was so angry that I yelled at the gate of the patrol camp. This patrol camp was too dark!
Therefore, Lin Tianyu has not been in a good mood these days.
On this day, Lin Tianyu was really bored at home, so he came to Fushou Building, ready to smoke two tubes of Fushou ointment, and when he had regained enough energy, he would find someone to play mahjong. Lin Tianyu didn't like playing with women, and he didn't like listening to operas.
He doesn't like foreign things like dancing, so he just likes to play mahjong with others, but the playing is still very big.
Just by hearing the name, Fu Shou Lou knew it was a smokehouse.
Fushou Building is also one of the dozen opium dens that Lin Tianyu is responsible for, and it is the one with the best location and the best business. It can bring Lin Tianyu an income of more than 100,000 yuan every month.
Of course, out of these hundreds of thousands, Lin Tianyu had to spend a large part of his money to "honor" his master Huang Jinrong.
The opium industry is a hugely profitable industry. From source to end, it is basically controlled by gangs, especially the Qinggang, which controls more than 40% of the opium dens and opium distribution channels in the concession, and the remaining 60% of the opium dens and distribution channels.
Although it is controlled by the Shanghai gentry or foreigners, the Qinggang can still get a piece of the pie.
The evil forces in the concession are so ruthless that foreigners can't do anything against them.
In fact, at the beginning, the foreigners who controlled the concession also fought with the Shanghai gangs headed by the Youth Gang. However, the results of several contests were lose-lose. The foreigners controlled the jurisdiction of the concession and had powerful armed forces. The gangs were in
On the surface, they can't compete with foreigners, but secretly, that's not the case.
Because the gangs have endless dirty tricks, such as poisoning, kidnapping, arson, and explosions, there is nothing they dare not do. The most ruthless thing is to find a large group of bad guys to guard them 24 hours a day.
The psychological shock of hanging around your apartment and walking around outside your apartment building is huge!
Moreover, such bad guys cannot be chased away and killed because there is no shortage of people in Shanghai, let alone bad guys.
Several battles between foreigners and gangsters not only failed to gain the upper hand, but almost paralyzed the business in the concession. Because of the gangsters' troubles, business could not be done. So in the end, the foreigners had no choice but to compromise and take over the most profitable opium industry.
He came out to share with the gangs, and the Qing Gang became famous and became the largest gang in Shanghai.
Back to business.
Lin Tianyu arrived at the gate of Fushou Building in a car. The two gangsters at the gate recognized Lin Tianyu's car at a glance. They rushed forward and opened the door, and then covered the door lintel with their hands. Lin Tianyu was in his prime.
He was only in his early thirties and didn't need anyone's support at all, so those two hooligans only gave him false support.
Lin Tianyu bent down and got out of the car, tightened his cashmere coat tightly, then hummed and spit out thick phlegm, then turned to ask one of the hooligans: "Akun, how are you these days?"
"Okay, pretty good." The little gangster named Akun nodded and bowed, "It's nothing."
Another hooligan also said: "Looking at Shanghai, who dares to touch our Youth Gang?"
Lin Tianyu hummed softly and walked into Fushou Building. The moment the curtain hanging on the door was lifted, a wave of hot air immediately poured out from inside with the sound. It was this familiar smell that made Lin Tianyu almost greedy.
After taking a sip, he stepped through the door and lowered the curtain to isolate the inside and outside.
Lin Tianyu didn't expect that there were two pairs of eyes staring at him just now.
The owners of these two pairs of eyes are none other than Xu Rui and the captain of the Third Secret Service Brigade, Liu Yiming.
Seeing the curtain fall, Liu Yiming said: "Second Young Master, that person just now is Lin Tianyu, one of the four great kings under the leadership of Huang Gang, the leader of the Qing Gang. He is responsible for the sixteen opium dens and eleven gambling houses in the west area of the concession.
In addition to the brothels, there are thirteen brothels, six dance halls and two underground banks."
Xu Rui chuckled and said: "The scale of the industry is not small. It is a fat sheep."
"But it's just a ram with horns!" Liu Yiming stayed in Shanghai for more than a year and was already familiar with the gang forces in Shanghai. He then said, "After Wang Yaqiao died, the Ax Gang dispersed, and Lin Tianyu recruited the members of the Ax Gang.
There are hundreds of gang members, plus the original Green Gang gang members, Lin Tianyu has at least 500 people under his command!"
"Five hundred people?" Xu Rui said suddenly, "There are really a lot of people."
"No, Lin Tianyu is a tough guy." Liu Yiming said, "Otherwise we should change our target. There are at least sixteen gangsters, big and small, in the Western Concession, and each has its own territory. We will find a relatively easy target to start with.
Pick up the soft persimmons and pinch them first, just to practice your skills."
"Pick the soft persimmon first?" Xu Rui said in amusement, "No, that's someone else. I, Mr. Liang, have always picked the hard persimmon. Is Zhang Xiaolin good enough? As one of the three tycoons of the Qinggang, but
So what? I'll shoot him to death if I say it, I dare to kill Zhang Xiaolin, why would I be afraid of a little loser under Huang Huangrong?"
Liu Yiming fell silent. It was only at this time that he remembered that the man sitting next to him had beaten Zhang Xiaolin and Fu Xiao'an to death in Paramount, and even escaped unharmed after beating Zhang Xiaolin and Fu Xiao'an to death.
, it is really not a big deal for such a ruthless person to deal with just Lin Tianyu.
"Captain Liu, you can call the brothers over." Xu Rui got out of the car after saying that.
Digua, who was sitting in the passenger seat, quickly got out of the car and handed over Xu Rui's cashmere cloak. Xu Rui took the cloak, unfolded it against the awe-inspiring northwest wind, and then put it on his shoulders. The whole movement was indescribable.
He is so handsome, coupled with Xu Rui's tall figure and handsome facial features, he is simply extremely handsome.
Liu Yiming also got out of the car and waved fiercely.
The next moment, more than a hundred men in black rushed out of the alleys around Fushou Building. These were people from the Third Secret Service Brigade of the Secret Service. As early as half an hour ago, the Third Secret Service Brigade
More than a hundred veterans of the National Army were already quietly lying in ambush in several surrounding alleys, waiting for Liu Yiming's order.
Liu Yiming took a few steps to catch up with Xu Rui and whispered: "Second Young Master, please don't show up, right?"
Xu Rui kept walking, but asked without looking back: "Why, why can't I come forward?"
Two black lines immediately appeared on Liu Yiming's forehead. Why? Isn't it obvious? We are now pretending to be members of the Ax Gang, but how can you pretend to be the second young master when you show up? You are so grand, and
It's so eye-catching that tomorrow everyone in Shanghai will know that we did it. Doesn't this mean it's an open robbery?
However, Liu Yiming did not dare to say this, so he could only say tactfully: "Second Young Master, there is no way to kill a chicken with a sledgehammer. To deal with a mere Lin Tianyu, our No. 1 Special Agent Brigade is enough."
Xu Rui laughed and said: "I just like to kill chickens with a knife, let's go!"
While talking, Xu Rui had already brought sweet potatoes and Liu Yiming to the door of Fushou Tower.
At this time, the two young hooligans who were guarding the door outside Fushou Building had already seen more than a hundred men in black pouring out of the surrounding alleys. Although the two young hooligans were not old, they had seen the world.
As soon as I saw this scene, I immediately knew that the person coming was evil and was probably here to mess with them, so I immediately shouted for help.
As soon as the two hooligans shouted, dozens of people rushed out of the Fushou Building.
Most of the dozens of hooligans who poured out of the Fushou Building were holding axes and iron bars in their hands, and some even had twenty-gun box cannons in their hands. Therefore, even though there were more than a hundred men in black who surrounded them,
People, but they were not afraid at all, because all the men in black who surrounded them had their hands empty.
More importantly, Fushou Building is the place of the Qing Gang, who dares to disturb it?
The leading hooligan pointed his gun at Xu Rui and shouted: "Boy, if you know better, get out of here, or I'll beat you until your mother can't even recognize you!"
"roll!"
"Get out of here!"
"disappear as far as you can!"
"If you don't go away, I'll crush your balls!"
"You can't mess with the Qing Gang!"
The other dozens of gangsters also responded loudly.
Xu Rui grinned, showing two rows of white teeth, then raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
The next moment, more than a hundred men in black who had gathered around lifted up the hems of their black clothes, revealing two twenty-gun cannons strapped to their backs.
