Gong Binsheng had no choice but to say: "Yes, I would like to discuss it with Brother Luo again."
This tone made Luo Jiang feel better. He heard it, and Gong Binsheng also felt embarrassed.
He politely asked Gong Binsheng to sit down and made tea for him with his own hands.
But after sitting down, the two people didn't speak for a long time, and just looked at each other with wary eyes.
To put it bluntly, the situation in front of them was that the two of them were fighting a wolf with a straw, and both sides were afraid.
In Luo Jiang's view, this Gong Binsheng is the imperial envoy, holding the sword above, and can make any decision! But he ran into trouble with Liu Yingui at this time! He had to come back to discuss it with me! I want to see what he would say
!
Gong Binsheng's mood was even worse. He originally thought this was something that could go smoothly, but he encountered difficulties because of Liu Yingui's intervention! He accidentally exposed his Hongmen identity to Mr. Du. Now, this identity has become
Take the advantage of Luo Jiang!
If there is something wrong with the medicine task, if Luo Jiang takes part in it, he will be in trouble! And it is a trouble that cannot be explained! It seems that the medicine task is broken in his hands!
Therefore, at this time, Luo Jiang does not dare to take advantage of Gong Binsheng. And Gong Binsheng still needs to rely on Luo Jiang's power.
In this way, two people sit together, although they are wary, they each calmly explain the situation at hand, and each other understands that the current situation is indeed difficult to handle!
So, no matter what happens, even if they have any grievances against each other, they must cooperate if they want to complete the drug mission!
After all, Luo Jiang is relatively familiar with the situation in Shanghai and knows the gangs in Shanghai better.
He said uncertainly: "If we can find Mr. Du and Mr. Liu together and talk to each other, maybe we can resolve the dispute between them. I think it is easier to talk about it with Mr. Du. He
He also expressed his willingness to help us. What I am most worried about is whether Mr. Liu is willing to meet Mr. Du!"
Gong Binsheng thought about it and realized that this was almost the only way!
He immediately said: "I must ask him to come out for a meeting! The medicine is a big deal! There must be no problem!"
"Then, how do you invite him out?" Luo Jiang looked at him with a smile, his eyes still showing a little cunning.
"I called Yang Qingshan in Wuhan and explained the situation here. Ask him to call Liu Yingui again and make sure to persuade him! Only by letting these two people meet with the higher authorities can this matter be solved! What do you think?
?”
"Brother Hamao, if you want to accomplish this, you must hurry up! Today is already the 26th, and in three days, the Cargill will arrive! We don't have time to delay!"
"Brother Luo, I understand this. In short, the drug mission is a major event for us! In the end, it may be necessary for Brother Luo's people to go all out! Brother Luo, I would like to thank you in advance."
As he said this, he fisted Luo Jiang with both hands.
Luo Jiang looked at him with a smile, but he felt a little disdainful in his heart. He was obviously an officer of the national army, but he acted like a gangster.
They discussed it and Gong Binsheng immediately made a long-distance call to Yang Qingshan in Wuhan from Luo Jiang's room. After a lot of talking, he finally persuaded Yang Qingshan and agreed to call Liu Yingui.
After making the call, it was already late at night. Luo Jiang asked Gong Binsheng to go to the room upstairs to sleep and rest.

However, there were still a few people awake that night.
In Mr. Inoue's mansion in Zhongwang Lane, he sat together with Sato, Takahashi, and Kawakami, still studying various intelligence materials at hand. Almost every night, they had to sit together and study this intelligence.
This information was obtained through various channels and is very confidential. More importantly, it is also very comprehensive!
It can almost be said that it is through this intelligence that they master all the trends of all forces in Shanghai! Especially the various trends of China's intelligence agencies! Even the situations of Du Yuesen and Liu Yingui are under their control!
Their self-feeling is that they are like giants looking down on the entire Shanghai, and everything is clear at a glance!
Overall, they found no flaws tonight and everything was implemented according to their plan.
However, Takahashi shook a page of paper in his hand and said with a smile: "Everyone, they really want to get rid of the bag at the pier! They have been busy these past two days all because of this! I checked, and the pier
We have more supplies! I said, it’s better to let them switch the supplies, and our harvest will be greater! Think about it, is that so?”
Inoue and Sato looked at each other without speaking. They both understood what Takahashi meant.
It took Kawakami a moment before he figured it out. It was all for the mountains of supplies on the dock! Only by letting the people in Luojiang turn them around could they find a reason to seize these supplies!
He glared at Takahashi viciously and said gloomily: "You planned this whole thing! What have you done! Now Liu Yingui has rushed up, and he can't get down! Can he retreat? He can't retreat.
!For the sake of his status and face, he will definitely fight the Green Gang to the end! How do you tell them to remove the bag!"
Takahashi also understood that what he said was right. But things had developed to this point, and the people on Luo Jiang's side just wanted to switch the contract! Liu Yingui would not agree to it, life or death! This formed a deadlock, with each other trying to stand up to each other, and no one could
Refuse to take a step back!
If Liu Yingui doesn't retreat, it's impossible for Luo Jiang's people to switch sides! It's that simple!
Therefore, although Takahashi hopes to let Luo Jiang remove the bag, it will be of great benefit to medicines and supplies that Japan urgently needs, but now that the Qinggang and Hongmen are at odds, there is a doubt whether the bag can be removed!
He smiled bitterly and said: "Now, I hope that they can find a way to persuade Liu Yingui to cooperate with the Qinggang and Luo Jiang in switching contracts. It would be great if they can do this."
Kawakami would never miss this opportunity, and immediately said with a crooked mouth: "In hindsight! You will eat your own shit!"
Takahashi glared at Kawakami, wanting to say something to him.
But at this time, Inoue and Sato, two old foxes, looked at each other and smiled slightly.
Inoue said: "I think they will find a way to persuade Liu Yingui. If you don't believe it, we can wait and see!"
Kawakami glanced at him and said, "Does Mr. Inoue also want to eat his own shit?"
Inoue smiled and shook his head and said, "I won't! Let's wait and see!"

The sky is getting brighter. This day is December 26th, and a new day has begun.
At this time, the winter mist still shrouded the Shiliupu Pier. The cargo ships crowded together with numerous masts and masts looked like a hazy impressionist oil painting in the mist, mottled and as light as ink.
A gust of morning wind blew from the Huangpu River, passing over the piles of goods, which was damp and cold.
The intermittent whistles on the river, mixed with the sounds of dock workers loading and unloading goods, finally woke Xiao Ancheng from his slumber.
He huddled under the cargo pile all night, and his body was now stiff. The pain from last night also made it difficult for him to move.
He reluctantly sat up, trembling, but thinking about how to spend this cold day.
He didn't have a penny left on him, and it was all taken away by those gangsters. He felt hungry, but he didn't have breakfast today!
He reached out to hold the goods next to him, stood up slowly, and tried to move his body.
He looked around and saw that there were already some people around, walking back and forth in the pier.
He understood that if he didn't do hard work, he would have nothing to eat today!
He knew very well that he had to find a way to endure it! Hold on!
As for enduring and holding on, he has no idea what the consequences will be. He also has no idea what will happen after this moment! The only thing he can do now is to endure and hold on!
He walked slowly forward along the pier. There were goods as tall as a person around him, so densely packed that he couldn't see the side at a glance.
7-26
Xiao Ancheng finally walked to a small open space in the middle of the goods yard.
There was a group of stevedores waiting for work. They were wrapped in shabby clothes, squatting on the goods, and telling some crude jokes. Some people were holding big cakes and fried cakes in their hands and eating them with big mouthfuls.
Xiao Ancheng slowly walked to the side of the crowd and sat down on the goods. He tried not to look at the person eating breakfast.
His face was dark, his clothes were dirty, and his hair was a mess. On the contrary, the dock workers were cleaner.
About an hour later, a foreman came over and said loudly: "I want fifty people, who can come!"
The workers all stood up, rushed towards him, and looked at him expectantly.
The foreman shouted and counted the workers one by one. The workers who were counted walked behind him.
Xiao Ancheng walked up to him. The foreman patted him on the arm without even looking, as a sign of approval.
After the foreman had finished counting, he took the workers to a cargo yard, pointed to a pile of goods and said, "That's it, get on the boat!"
The workers lifted up the tarpaulin, carried the goods, walked through the cargo yard, and then stepped on the long gangplank to the cargo ship on the shore.
The goods under the tarpaulin are packed in cartons. Looking at the label, it seems to be something like clothing.
For stevedores, this is considered light work, and the wages for light work are not high. But having work to do is better than having no work at all!
For Xiao Ancheng, even if it was a light job, such a cardboard box weighed seventy or eighty pounds. He had not eaten breakfast and was injured again. This was a very heavy job!
He imitated others, put the carton on his shoulders, walked up the gangplank step by step, and carried it into the cargo hold.
Every time he walked up the gangplank carrying the carton, he felt very nervous. He felt his dizziness and weakness, and tried to walk as carefully as possible. He could not take a deep breath until he put down the goods.
After he got off the boat, he took a small bamboo stick from the foreman's hand.
He didn't know how much a small bamboo stick was worth, but there was hope, it might be enough for him to eat a meal.
He even wanted to say "thank you" to the foreman. But no one else said it, so he stopped.
