After entering the store, the five of them sat down at three tables.

Lu Menglin and Uncle Bing sat on a table opposite each other, Fat Dun and Chen Jiannan sat on a table next to them, and the middle-aged man who looked like an old farmer sat alone at the door of the ice room, occupying the upper hand.

Outside the door, inside the door, all the movement could not escape the eyes of the middle-aged man.

Fat Dun and Chen Jiannan glanced at each other, and both of them saw the strength of this middle-aged man from this small detail.

It seems that Heliansheng is not easy to deal with! Any guy who comes out is a guy with kung fu, and he can only outwit him, not be able to defeat him.

At noon, business was booming at this Kowloon Ice House, and every booth was full. From junior high school students in school uniforms to gray-haired old men in their twilight years, there's everyone.

Lu Menglin thought slightly, and quickly understood what Uncle Bing meant, this place looks like a mixed group of people coming and going, but in fact, it is the best natural cover, even if it is a professional radio tool, it is estimated that it is difficult to collect sound in this kind of place.

"Mr. Lu, where are the two of you? really he asked you to come to me?" Uncle Bing asked unhurriedly.

Lu Menglin smiled faintly and said, "The second master is very safe now. However, he only mentioned you to me and didn't ask me to come to you. ”

"I received the rumor, the second brother was planted, you did it!" Uncle Bing's old eyes suddenly bloomed with a terrifying light, and he said sharply.

Lu Menglin looked directly into the other party's eyes without fear, and said lightly: "How can you see it?"

Uncle Bing's eyes suddenly narrowed a slit, faintly revealing a cold glow, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, don't think that with a few small dollars, you can come to Hong Kong Island to stir up the wind and rain, you are still tender!"

"What does Uncle Bing mean by this?" Lu Menglin said with a smile.

"Hehe, I advise you to hand over the second child obediently, otherwise I'm afraid that you will see Hades at a young age!"

As soon as Uncle Bing's words came out, Fat Dun and Chen Jiannan were startled at the same time, and their bodies tensed up at the same time, maybe they should lift the table and start in the next second.

Lu Menglin shook his head and said with a smile: "As long as the second master is in the mainland, I will be safe." That's why I'm coming to you. ”

Uncle Bing sneered: "What? Do you think that I, an old man, will be soft? Young man, don't be too confident. If you don't hand over the second child, you won't be able to get out of Hong Kong Island. ”

Lu Menglin stretched out his fingers, tapped lightly on the tabletop, and said with a smile: "Uncle Bing, we are not enemies. Things are actually a bit complicated, the second master doesn't want to come back, but he can't come back for the time being. ”

"Hmph!" you continued. "Uncle Bing's face is as pale as a railway.

Lu Menglin smiled: "I am a businessman, I only like to earn and spend money. This time, I came to Hong Kong Island to see if there were any business opportunities. I heard the second master talk about some things with Liansheng, and I think I should have the opportunity to cooperate with you.

As for the second master himself, I can only say that he is very safe, but he can't come back yet. ”

Uncle Bing frowned and said, "What the hell do you mean?"

"I mean, someone with Liansheng framed the second master! It's not that he doesn't want to go back, but he doesn't dare to come back. ”

"What?" this time it was Uncle Bing's turn to be surprised.

"I won't hide it from you, I don't know the second master if I don't fight, someone asked him to deal with me, and then leaked his news to me, wanting us to lose both. Lu Menglin flickered vigorously.

"There's this

Who did it!" Uncle Bing was furious, he subconsciously felt that what this kid said should be true, otherwise who would risk his life and approach him with this reason.

"I don't know. I'll tell you the truth. The second master and a few of them are in a special place for the time being, although they can leave at any time, but they don't want to leave. Moreover, why should I keep them? It's no good, you say yes?" Lu Menglin said half-truthfully.

Uncle Bing nodded, and shook his head again, in fact, he didn't necessarily believe much in the kid in front of him, but the other party said it mysteriously and had to listen to him.

Because in addition to having a deep friendship with the second master, Uncle Bing also has a huge amount of money deposited in the Swiss bank in the name of the two of them, and only when both of them hand over the password can they get it.

"Then why did you come to me?" Uncle Bing asked angrily.

Lu Menglin said with a smile: "I have already said, I am a businessman! I want to do a big business with Uncle Bing and Liansheng." Of course, I also want to make money. ”

"Do you want to do business with Heliansheng?" Uncle Bing sneered in his heart, but said silently on his face.

"The business I'm going to do is not an ordinary business. The second master also said, if Uncle Bing, after you listen to it, you will only write a big word!" Lu Menglin deliberately sold a pass.

"Don't provoke, take out the real thing, and see if I can be convinced!" Uncle Bing was really not convinced, and choked up.

Lu Menglin nodded and said with a smile: "Before talking about this business, I want to talk a few digressions. As far as I know, there are four major societies on Hong Kong Island, and Helian Sheng is just one of them, right?"

"Yes! Among the four major associations on Hong Kong Island, Heliansheng ranks first. Say whatever you want to say directly!" Uncle Bing said proudly.

Lu Menglin smiled and said: "Okay, I will think that Liansheng is the largest club on Hong Kong Island." ”

"What do you call it! It should be! You dared to see it just now, Fourteen K is also one of the four major societies, do they dare to fart in front of me? If it weren't for your kid's panic in burning more money, Lao Tzu wouldn't have to give them a dime. Uncle Bing said angrily.

"Uncle Bing, do you know that the underground societies in the world, divided by strength, have a threefold realm?" Lu Menglin's expression was grim, and he said with a straight face.

"Triple realm?" Uncle Bing was stunned for a moment, he had been mixed with the club for so many years, and he really hadn't heard of any other realms in the club.

Lu Menglin said seriously: "The first level of the community realm is the crime of violent gangs, what robbery, murder, kidnapping and the like, to put it bluntly, it is to rely on violence to plunder wealth and complete primitive accumulation." ”

Uncle Bing nodded again and again when he said these words, with a look of understanding.

Because the predecessor of Heliansheng relied on these businesses to make money, and then recruited troops and horses, everyone formed a group, relying on the positive righteousness and thin clouds, and the negative ruthlessness, so that today's Heliansheng situation.

As for the second realm, that is, the intermediate stage of the community organization, the core members of the organization often appear as bosses and entrepreneurs, and monopolize industries and control illegal industries under the guise of legal companies.

Just like the finance company we went to today, the boss of FourteenK is the boss of that company. I believe that it is the same with Liansheng, which has a monopoly and control over certain industries on Hong Kong Island, right?"

Lu Menglin's question made Uncle Bing suddenly stunned

opened, I only felt that I had been mixed with the rivers and lakes for most of my life, but I didn't see it accurately as the young man in front of me.

Take Heliansheng as an example, relying on the early violent gang crimes, after completing the primitive accumulation, almost all the gangsters started business, and they were openly or implicitly inserted into some industries to control, and this time was also the most profitable time.

Whoever controls the money-making industry will be developed, and the rich will be more powerful, so in the past ten years, every time the rivers and lakes have been fighting, in fact, it is to compete for territory, that is, to compete for the most profitable industries.

For example, Uncle Bing himself is the major shareholder of four listed companies, and his forces control several nightclubs, bars, and seven or eight transportation lines.

"Then what about the third realm?" Uncle Bing was already deeply attracted by this young man's words, after all, what people summed up was the rivers and lakes that he had mixed all his life, and this topic naturally had an irresistible primitive attraction to him.

Not only Uncle Bing, but even the middle-aged man sitting at the door was constantly fanning his ears slightly at this moment, and he clearly heard Lu Menglin's words, and he listened to them very attentively.

Not only them, but even Chen Jiannan on the side listened to it with relish, thinking about how many good things Lu Menglin had in his head, how could he even have the wisdom of the mixed club, did this kid really grow up in Liufang?

Except for Fat Dun, several other people were waiting to hear Lu Menglin talk about the third realm of the community's rivers and lakes.

Lu Menglin smiled and picked up the sweet taste in front of him first, tasted two sips, moistened his throat, and then said: "As for this triple realm, frankly speaking, none of the four major associations on Hong Kong Island are qualified to reach it. On the contrary, the associations in Taiwan already have some trends and embryonic forms. ”

Hearing this, Uncle Bing frowned and said unhappily: "How is it possible! Several associations in Taiwan are not as rich as our Hong Kong Islanders, so why should they?"

Lu Menglin said with a smile: "The third stage of the association, which is currently the most advanced stage, is also called the court Jianghu, that is, the association launches agents to run for senior officials, forms a shadow government, and rules one side from top to bottom.

Taiwan's political environment is unique, and the official and bandit families, such as the Bamboo Union Gang, have long participated in political elections, and the Yamaguchi-gumi and the Black Dragon Society in the East have also entered the third stage. ”

After Lu Menglin said this, Uncle Bing and the middle-aged man sitting not far away both fell silent.

They are clear about the situation of the Bamboo Union Gang, when the old Chiang retreated to Taiwan, the descendants of the soldiers he brought with him, known as the provincial people, competed with the local natives for resources for many years, and there were endless disputes.

In the 80s, the Taiwan authorities demanded that the major unscrupulous gangs surrender themselves within a time limit and be revoked, and the leaders of the Bamboo Union gang at that time actively made friends with the top level of the government in order to protect themselves, and at the same time put forward the slogan that the Bamboo Union Gang should "participate in politics and do something for the country and the country".

The situation on Hong Kong Island is completely different from that of Taiwan, a treasure island, especially after the return of the Ninety-Seven Empire, the high-level members of the four major associations are even more like frightened birds, for fear that they will be cleaned up by the state organs one day.

Not to mention the evolution to the third realm, it is not even possible to maintain the current situation, which is not only the trouble of the Liansheng family, but the trouble of the entire Hong Kong Island.
