Chapter 125

After a scuffle, with his superb marksmanship and superb skills, Jane, who faced the battle alone, was not injured at all, but several swordsmen who attacked together were slashed by him and hung up a lot, and finally fled together in embarrassment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jian Yi didn't bother to chase anymore, the one thing he was most concerned about at the moment was whether Hua Ting on his side was injured.

The fierce fight suddenly stopped, followed by the chaotic sound of departing footsteps, and the black-clad swordsmen withdrew from the ballroom door in disarray, moving with great speed; Hua Tingcai shot three bullets, and although he was not yet happy, he had to put the revolver back in his pocket before the lights came on again.

"Are you alright?" In the darkness, Jane's face was full of concern and still sparkled in her starry eyes.

"It's okay," Hua Ting shook her head proudly, "What am I?" ”

When the lights came on again, the tables and chairs in the hall were chaotic, there were only three or two guests left, and the stage was empty, just like every Paramount that had an accident, it was this out-of-control and depressed scene.

On the sofa chair where Jian Yifang was entertaining, except for a pool of fresh blood, there was no corpse there.

"I didn't expect these guys to set up an ambush in advance." Even after just ending a fierce battle, Jane is still dressed in a suit and leather shoes, leather shoes, and her short ink-colored hair is meticulously combed, looking like a gentleman and leisurely, as if she has just finished drinking a cup of coffee in her hand.

"In other words, plotted?"

"So to speak." Jian Yi nodded with a complicated expression.

"Mr. Jane, are you so free to bring your wife to Nanjing City to play?" A loud voice came from behind Jian Yi.

The three of them turned their heads in unison, and the middle-aged man wearing a suit of the same color as Jian Yi, his face was so thin that when he laughed, his cheekbones were high, and he had the appearance of a treacherous villain. ”

Jian Yi's face sank, but for a second, he reached out and shook the middle-aged man's hand, "Director Li, long time no see." As he spoke, he turned around and introduced to the two ladies, "Nanjing City Police Commissioner, Li Xiangming." ”

Hua Ting, nodding politely, was considered a greeting.

There were waiters around who began to sweep the remaining glass shards on the ground one after another, Director Li frowned and looked around, and then said with a disgusted face, "I'm really sorry, today's scene is chaotic, and I swept Mr. Jian's Yaxing." ”

"Where, where," Jian Yi also smiled politely, "Director Li is polite." ”

However, in the next second, the words that came out of Director Li's mouth really made the little hearts of the three people present jump slightly, "I think it's strange, why is there Mr. Jian at the place where every murder occurs?" ”

"Really?" Jian Yi smiled sensitively, and the expression in his eyes was mixed with a little subtlety, "So, I, Jian Yi, was born with a broom star, right?" ”

"Haha," Director Li snuffed off the only half of the cigarette in his hand, and his eyes rolled around, "Mr. Jane is really humorous." ”

Seeing that Director Li was just talking about homely things and had nothing else to do, Jian Yi said, "Director Li, do you want to go to have a cup of tea with us?" Or a late-night snack or something? ”

Director Li shook his head as expected, "I still have something to do, take Mr. Jian and Mrs. Jian to have a good time in Nanjing City another day," said Shi Yinai, who glanced at Shi Yinai lightly, "Of course, there is also Miss Shi." ”

Jane didn't bother to say more to him, "Then let's ...... first"

Before Jian Yi finished speaking, Director Li cut off, "I don't know if there was a death?" His eyes looked at the fresh blood stains on the sofa cushions on the side, "If I remember correctly, that seat should be where Director Wang sits." ”

"Yes," Jian Yi's tone seemed to be smiling, but his eyebrows were fixed, and there was no loosening at all, "After the lights were turned on, Director Wang was gone." ”

Tell the devil this! Hua listened and guessed Director Li's inner monologue.

Director Li is also a talker, and he still maintains the proper politeness on his face, "Nanjing City is chaos, there will always be so many incidents a day, Mr. Jian is still ...... It's better to be careful. ”

I don't know if it's an illusion of Hua Ting, but I always feel that his sentence "Be careful is better" contains deep hostility.

Director Xie Li reminded.

Jane, who returned to the car, decisively withdrew the two drivers and bodyguards, closed the door and turned her head to Shi Yinai in the back seat, "I'm afraid my identity is going to be exposed." ”

After coming out of the dance hall, Shi Yinai's brows furrowed and he didn't speak.

"Why?" Hua Ting realized the seriousness of the problem, "Who is that Director Li?" ”

"Jian Maosheng's people," Jian Yi's face turned pale, and his hands holding the steering wheel tightened unconsciously, "I'm afraid today's incident was also premeditated, the lights, the man in black, and Director Li all appeared too coincidentally." ”

"What do you mean......" Shi Yinai's gaze subconsciously trembled, "Jian Maosheng is testing you?" ”

"That's the worst-case scenario."

As Jian Yi's words fell, Hua Ting's facial expression became more and more stiff, "Then what should I do?" ”

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth!"

"Hey, don't think I haven't watched the Shanghai Tang spy war drama, once the identity of the spy is revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Jian Yi glanced at Hua Yi, and his eyebrows and eyes curved, "If it is really exposed, I will also protect you!" ”

"Who cares about your thoughtfulness!"

"Sister Hua thinks I'll drag you to death with me?"

"Dead? I'm nothing, I might be able to travel back in time when I'm dead, it's up to you! ”

"It's me?" Jian Yi's smile at this moment is very similar to Chen Shu under the moonlight that night, both of them are free and easy to put life and death out of the way, "Death is nothing to me, what I'm worried about is you." ”

"I don't need your worries."

The two of them had a playful posture when you said a word, and Shi Yinai didn't say a word in the back seat.

Jian Yi hit the steering wheel, changed lanes, and drove east, "Take the evening plane back to Shanghai." ”

***

The matter was far more serious than Hua Ting imagined, Lao Jiang immediately ordered the "crow extermination" plan to act in advance, and Hua Ting's first task was to use all means to set the time for all opium transactions at 12 o'clock the night after tomorrow.

Looking at Lao Jiang's cold and hard back disappearing into the depths of the alley, Hua Ting's eyes were inexplicably tingling.

She just turned around and crashed headlong into Jian Yi's gentle embrace, "What's wrong?" He felt his arms tighten, holding her with a force that seemed to be embedded in his body.

His chin rested lightly on the top of her head, and he said in a soft tone, "You must be very careful when you act, you know?" ”

"Do you still need to say it?" Hua Ting slammed him with her forehead very badly.

Jian Yi hugged her tighter and tighter, "If I have anything wrong, you ......"

"Stop talking nonsense to me!"

"Ha," the laughter came from above her head, mixed with a soft breath, and Jian Yiqing laughed refreshingly, "Sister Hua is still like this." ”

Suddenly, an inexplicable melancholy thought rushed into her chest.

Hua Ting subconsciously stretched out his hand to hug him, "In case something happens to you, and I can't go back to the 21st century, then won't I die in the Republic of China?" ”

"So," Jane leaned down, close to her cheek, and put on a determined smile, "I can't die." ”

"Hah! It's good that you know. ”

"So," her face was scented with the refreshing and good-smelling milk shower gel, and Jane couldn't help but bite it gently, "Count me as a fart just now!" ”

It is not easy to put an end to Bai Qihong's opium industry.

Now under the control of the military, opium is nothing more than a business arrangement. The warlords took money directly from it, and a lot of money was stuffed into the pockets of low-paid policemen from mayors to sub-officials to patrolling...... After the establishment of the National Government, the situation did not change much. Under the guise of regulating opium trafficking, it was still the gangs of the French Concession that practiced monopoly, which supported Chiang ** and eradicated the underground party in the French Concession that could undermine the Nanjing government's efforts to win the hearts and minds of the people.

Whether it was trafficking in opium or dealing with the underground party, the unrest caused by the activities of Bai Qihong's forces in the French Concession finally made the French Concession Public Board of Directors realize that if this development continued, the management would inevitably get out of control. The French Concession Police Force began negotiations with Bai Qihong, hoping that Wanshan Company, which was a platform for manipulating opium trading, would move out of the French Concession.

On the condition that Bai Qihong hand over $3 million a month to the central finance minister, he openly sold opium in Shanghai. In the following year, in order to further raise military spending, the Kuomintang government set up an anti-smoking supervision office and officially implemented the opium monopoly. As for Bai Qihong's manufacture of morphine in Nanshi and making huge profits, in fact, Jian Maosheng is also involved in its interests. The Nanjing government and the Shanghai gang forces mainly focused on each other's interests in grasping the scale of drug prohibition and drug trafficking, and all the rules of the game were drawn up with this as the center.

The difficulty of the "crow extermination" operation lies in the fact that the matter involves the gangsters in Shanghai, because this will threaten their relations with the Nanjing government, and thus affect their future contacts with the Nanjing government. The Nanjing government apparently took this into account, and therefore paid special attention to the operation of Shanghai's opium industry.

Bai Qihong's opium factory on the Bund in Huajie had been in existence for more than six months, and at his request, through Huang Zhiwen, the former chief of public security, he had obtained permission to operate the factory from Jiang **; Of course, Bai Qihong understood Jiang **'s overtures and reciprocated his favor, firstly, he supported Chiang's encirclement and suppression of the Red Army, and secondly, he assisted in sabotaging the underground organization of the Communist Party in Shanghai.

In this way, Shanghai Tang fell into a miasma, and officials helped each other and covered the sky with one hand, almost turning China into an invincible drug empire! (To be continued.) )
