Chapter 558: The Breeze Blows
Canal County, as the name suggests, is a county located next to the Grand Canal, although it is a neighbor of Nanyun County, it is much larger than Nanyun County, and because it is close to the Grand Canal, it is also more prosperous and prosperous. Nanyun County is almost a poor county in the province, while Canal County is a large economic county with high fiscal revenue, and the two counties are far apart.
The county seat of Canal County is also much larger than Nanyun County, and it can even be regarded as a small city, and it is said that the leaders of Canal County are already applying to upgrade the administrative level of Canal County to a county-level city.
On one of the busiest streets in Canal County, a very spacious store opened, with lights at the door, and hundreds of people gathered at the door to wait for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
This store looks like an antique shop, and the decoration is very high-grade, the scale is also very large, from the two stone lions at the door can be seen that the owner is wealthy. Those who do the antique business are generally rich big bosses.
The people who came to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony were also some heads and faces, and it can be seen from the dozens of luxury cars parked across the street that the owner of the store has a wide range of friends, and the guests who came to congratulate him are also extraordinary.
But the ribbon-cutting ceremony has not been held for a long time, and many onlookers have begun to discuss, who is this waiting for? The person who presided over the ribbon-cutting ceremony must be a big shot, which big man will cut the ribbon today?
At this moment, a luxury BMW RV slowly stopped at the door, and after two strong men in black suits got out of the car, they respectfully opened the door, and then a man in a straight suit walked out of the car elegantly.
When this man got out of the car, he immediately attracted everyone's attention, because this thirty-five or sixteen-year-old man was so handsome, one meter eight tall, handsome appearance, elegant and charming smile, and calm pace, no matter from which point of view, this is a beautiful man in the wind of Yushu, and it can be seen that he belongs to the upper class.
At this time, a fat man hurriedly walked out of the store, walked forward with a smile on his face, held the man's hand, and said, "Mr. Murong, you have come here to make the small shop shine." ”
It turns out that this fat man is the owner of this antique shop, people call him Wang Fatzi, who made a fortune in the antique business in his early years, and now has opened a generous store.
And the man surnamed Murong smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry, I was talking about things with the leader of the county propaganda department just now, and I was late, so I made you all wait for a long time, and it was your fault." ”
At this time, some of the people below began to talk.
"This person turned out to be Murong Xu, a famous painter in the county, it is better to meet than to be famous, it is really a talent, and he is worthy of being an artist in the county."
"I'll go, this is the boss of the Rising Sun Group? is not only an artist, but also an excellent private entrepreneur, it is really envious and hateful, even if you are handsome, you still have money, even if you have money, you are an artist! Oh my god is really unfair. ”
"Others are from scholarly families, with a very strong family background, and people are more popular than others."
Just when people were talking, Murong Xu had already begun to preside over the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and after the ribbon-cutting, a deafening firecracker sounded, and then Murong Xu delivered a congratulatory speech on behalf of the guests, followed by a dragon and lion dance performance.
The guests were invited into the store, and the store was prepared with food and drinks, so it was natural that the first day would be lively.
Murong Xu and Wang Fatzi were in a secluded corner where no one was around, and Wang Fatzi said with a flattering face: "Mr. Murong, I will have to take care of my small shop in the future, this is a little meaning of this month, please accept it." After speaking, he took out a big red envelope.
Murong Xu smiled slightly, and did not take the red envelope, but said with a smile: "Boss Wang, we are partners, have you forgotten?" I'll give you this daily expense for free, but in the future, you need to have more snacks in our business dealings. ”
Wang Fatzi immediately nodded and said, "The little one must not dare to forget, please rest assured Mr. Murong." ”
Murong Xu patted Wang Fatzi on the shoulder and said, "I still have something to do, let's go first, I will let someone contact you if there is something in the future, see you later." After speaking, he walked into his BMW.
After the BMW drove away, Wang Fatzi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and it seemed that he was very afraid of this gentle Murong Xu.
In the BMW, Murong Xu said to a young man wearing glasses beside him: "Xiao Li, in the future, we will have another channel for the medicine we imported from outside the province, and we will say hello to Wang Fatzi when we buy goods at the end of each month, and his goods are exempt from inspection." ”
Xiao Li immediately nodded and said, "Remember, helper." ”
It turns out that this Murong Xu is not only an artist and entrepreneur, but also the head of an underground gang, and this gang also has a very elegant name, Qingfeng Gang.
The Qingfeng Gang is the largest gang in Canal County, helping thousands of people, involving drugs and arms, pornography, gambling, drugs, usury, real estate, and many other industries.
And Murong Xu relied on his family relationship and the money in his hand to buy the title of a county CPPCC member, and he is also very well-connected in Baidao, and has a close relationship with many high-ranking officials, because he is an artist, and those high-ranking officials like to be vassal-elegant, so they have a hot fight with him.
In the underworld, Murong Xu is the number one person in Canal County, his influence is not only in Canal County, but also expands to several nearby counties, in the nearby counties, except for Nanyun County, the other neighboring counties are in his sphere of influence, and his strength is quite strong.
And the medicine that Murong Xu said to Xiao Li refers to drugs, he controls the drug network in several nearby counties, imports drugs from various channels and then wholesales them at high prices, monopolizing the drug market in several counties.
The reason why Murong Xu covered Wang Fatzi was because he took a fancy to his antique business, which could help him transport drugs, and successfully conceal the checkpoint inspection, and the antique goods were exempt from inspection. If you think about hiding a bag of drugs worth tens of thousands of yuan in a Ming Dynasty vase worth millions, who would have thought that? The drug is far less valuable than a vase, so security personnel don't even think that someone would use a valuable antique to transport drugs.
This is also Murong Xu's cleverness, he used the huge power of his gang to force businessmen from all walks of life to cooperate with him, these businessmen are afraid of his power, in order to save their business and their lives, they can only go along with him, so that his drug trafficking network is very cleverly hidden, and the police have no way to investigate.
The luxurious BMW RV drove out of Canal County and came to a luxurious five-story villa on the outskirts of the city, which was as large and luxurious as a medieval castle, covering hundreds of acres and accommodating hundreds of people, where the headquarters of the Qingfeng Gang was located.
Murong Xu stepped off the BMW, and was welcomed by more than a dozen bodyguards, walked into the headquarters, and came all the way to the office on the third floor.
Sitting on the mahogany tiger skin Taishi chair in the Ming Dynasty, Murong Xu looked through the account book on the table, and after he looked at it a few times, he frowned and said, "Why is the protection fee one percent less this month?" Let the people of Lanhuatang go and find out what is going on. ”
One of the subordinates next to him immediately received the order, although it was only one percent, but because the territory under the jurisdiction of the Qingfeng Gang was too large, the monthly protection fee was a huge amount, so one percent was also a large amount.
From this point, it can be seen that Murong Xu is a meticulous person, and anyone who wants to do ghosts under his hands will be discovered by him.
After reading the account book, Murong Xu closed his eyes for a while, and then said to Xiao Li beside him, "Let the people from Meixiangtang come here for a while." ”
Xiao Li nodded and went down to call someone.
The Qingfeng Gang is different from those gangs in Nanyun County, not only has a large number of people, as many as thousands of gangs, but also has a very standardized and strict internal management and a clear division of labor.
The Qingfeng Gang has a total of four subordinate halls, namely Meixiangtang, Lanhuatang, Jushengtang, and Zhuyutang. According to the four gentlemen in the flowers, Mei Lan Ju Zhu, it also reflects Murong Xu's elegant nature, not as vulgar as other gangs.
These four halls manage different affairs, and Meixiangtang is mainly for external expansion, mainly killing and conquest, and is the main force in foreign warfare.
Lanhuatang is mainly engaged in internal supervision, such as investigating internal ghosts, monitoring key members and other affairs. This hall is composed of the most trusted cronies of the gang leader, equivalent to his personal spy organization, and it is the smallest of the four halls, and it is also the most mysterious and terrifying. Once the people who are targeted by Lan Huatang will most likely not end well.
Jushengtang is the torture hall, mainly responsible for assassinating people from rival gangs, as well as dissidents, almost all of them are composed of a group of bloodthirsty cold-blooded killers, and it is also the most feared force of other gangs.
Zhu Yutang is responsible for collecting intelligence, they are scattered and hidden in various industries, there is no need not to reveal the identity of their gang members, no different from ordinary people, but these people gather all kinds of intelligence to the headquarters, so that Murong Xu can anticipate the enemy's opportunities and not be defeated in a hundred battles.
After a while, I saw a stout man of medium stature walk in, he was the hall master of Meixiangtang, everyone else knew that his nickname was Blood Knife, no one knew his real name, and everyone under his command called him Brother Dao.
"Helper, you called me?" Although the Blood Knife was full of violent murderous aura, it looked very awe-inspiring in front of Murong Xu.
Murong Xu asked slowly, "Is there any news about the people sent to Nanyun County?" ”
The Blood Knife paused for a moment and replied, "Report to the gang leader, the person I sent was killed." ”
Murong Xu was stunned for a moment, and then asked with interest, "Oh?" Who would dare to kill me? ”
Blood Knife replied respectfully: "It's a person who has recently risen in Nanyun County, Ye Feng of the Tiger Gang." ”
Murong Xu thought about it slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of this person, let's hear it." ”
Blood Knife said: "According to the information provided by Zhu Yutang, this Ye Feng's identity background is very mysterious, and he can't investigate his background, but since he joined the Tiger Gang, he has defeated the Cao Gang, the original number one gang in Nanyun County, and now the Cao Gang has collapsed, and the Tiger Gang has become the number one force in Nanyun County." It's all because of Ye Feng, his skills are very good, it should be similar to the five tigers under me. ”
Murong Xu nodded and said, "Nanyun County is a poor place far away from the Emperor of the Mountain, and I didn't have the energy to take care of it before, and there are no people who can pose a threat to us. Can you handle it? ”
Blood Knife nodded and said, "It's about the same, but you need to use half of Mei Xiangtang's brothers." ”
Murong Xu's eyebrows twitched, and he waved his hand and said: "If you want to raise the army, then don't panic first, these barbarians may not know who I am, send someone to send them a name post, give them a month to submit to me, if they don't know how to lift, you can get them again." ”
Blood Knife nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little disdain in his heart, isn't it just a small Tiger Gang, our Mei Xiangtang can take down the entire Nanyun County with half of the people, there is no problem, what is the gang leader taking care of?
