Chapter 103: Hardness
The words of the man in the long shirt made Bai Zhanshan secretly clench his fists, and then looked at Tang Cheng, but he still had an expression of not caring at all. Sensing that Bai Zhanshan was looking at him, Tang Cheng immediately bared his teeth and smiled, "Uncle Bai, you didn't come with me for something, inexplicably someone stretched out his fist to me, I naturally can't suffer, I can't be blamed for this!" Tang Cheng deliberately put on a mixed face at this moment, but the corner of his eye was paying attention to the reaction of the man in the long robe.
"Little Red Guy, I think you're looking for death!" The face of the man in the long shirt changed, and the man in the short shirt who came in before Tang Cheng to report the news immediately let out a loud shout, opened the placket of his clothes with his left hand, and was about to draw the pistol pinned to his waist with his right hand. The other party wanted to use the gun, and Bai Zhanshan's face also became ugly, no matter what, he was still a special commissioner sent to Shanghai by the headquarters of the Intelligence Department. It's just a small conflict, and the other side is going to rob it, which clearly shows that it doesn't give face to the intelligence department.
Tang Cheng, who had been paying close attention to the other party's reaction, didn't think about it that much at all, and before the short-shirted man pulled out the pistol pinned to his waist, Tang Cheng spun around and kicked the short-shirted man in the face with a flying kick. "Smack!" There was a crisp sound, and the man in the short shirt, who had been hit hard in the face, didn't even have time to make a sound, and he opened his arms and fell backwards. "You... What do you want? Seeing Tang Cheng leaning over to pick up the Browning pistol that had fallen to the ground, the man in the long shirt immediately jumped up from his seat with fear on his face.
Contrary to the reaction of the man in the long robe, Bai Zhanshan was as steady as Mount Tai at the moment, obviously Tang Cheng's reaction just now was not beyond his expectations. Tang Cheng leaned over to pick up the Browning pistol from the ground, and when he straightened up, he deliberately grinned at the man in the long shirt. "The accuracy of the Browning pistol is good, but the caliber is smaller, and if the shooting distance is long, it may not be able to kill the target. If I had to choose, I would probably choose the M1911, four or five calibres are enough to penetrate this table and kill the target hiding behind the table. ”
As he spoke, Tang Cheng's hands moved quickly, and under the eyes of Bai Zhanshan and the man in the long robe, he quickly disassembled the Browning pistol in his hand into a pile of parts. "Tsk, the people who use this gun really don't care about things! Look, it's been a long time since the gun has been wiped out, and no matter how good Browning's things are, they still need to be maintained frequently, otherwise it will definitely affect performance. ”
Tang Cheng, who was talking to himself, immediately took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and then casually pulled over a chair and sat down on the edge of the table, posing as if he was going to wipe his gun here.
"Little Wu, don't make trouble!" Bai Zhanshan, who was secretly holding back a smile, grimaced his face and coughed lightly at Tang Cheng. "This is Mr. Wei of the Faithful Society, one of the three tycoons, the person next to Boss Huang Jinronghuang, Xiao Wu, you take it!" Bai Zhanshan bit the sound of the three words of the Faithful Society, and Tang Cheng immediately reacted.
Although Tang Cheng has not been in Shanghai for a long time, he has been thunderous against the three major Heng Du and Huang Zhang of Shanghai Tang. This Faithful Society was naturally formed by Huang Jinrong, one of the three tycoons, in order to fight against the growing influence of the Du Society, and the Du Society was precisely established by Du Yuesheng, one of the three tycoons. Tang Cheng was not interested in the battle between the three tycoons at all, but he didn't understand why Bai Zhanshan wanted to take Huang Jinrong at the moment.
Tang Cheng always wanted to give Bai Zhanshan face, so he reassembled the Browning pistol in a few clicks, and then reached forward and pushed the pistol back to Mr. Wei's hand. "Mr. Wei, I'm sorry just now, the pistol will be returned to you, if you feel angry, whether you are beaten or punished, I will follow your words!" Tang Cheng gave Bai Zhanshan face and took the initiative to restore the pistol to the other party, but what he said just now also made it clear that if the other party bit again, Tang Cheng would bear the consequences, but Bai Zhanshan was not involved.
"Forget it, since it's Chief Bai's nephew, even if we don't fight, we don't know each other!" This Mr. Wei is also a talent, his back was covered with cold sweat that had been shocked by Tang Cheng's sudden attack, but at this moment, he still had to pretend to be generous, and even Bai Zhanshan secretly felt panicked for this goods. Tang Cheng took the initiative to return the pistol, and the other party also pretended to be generous and released goodwill, Bai Zhanshan nodded at Tang Cheng, signaling that this matter would be considered over.
"Xiao Wu, I asked you to come in because I wanted your help with something." Bai Zhanshan was not polite, the conflict just now had just passed, and he couldn't wait to get down to business. "Boss Huang of the Faithful Society has a batch of goods, which was intercepted by the British, I know that your foreign friend has some connections in the Ministry of Industry Bureau, I want you to help ask about the whereabouts of that batch of goods." Bai Zhanshan was not sorry when he said these words, but Tang Cheng immediately glared.
"Uncle Bai, you are a strong man's difficulty, if the batch of goods you said is yours, I can ask my friend to help me think of a way. But that Boss Huang of the Faithful Society, even if I know people, they may not know who I am, why should I ask my friend to help him inquire about the news? Tang Cheng's words made that Mr. Wei's face even more ugly, but he couldn't find fault with Tang Cheng, because there was nothing wrong with what Tang Cheng said just now.
"Little Wu, you can't just think it's a favor for me!" Bai Zhanshan, who had boasted about Haikou in front of Mr. Wei before, made a look of being familiar with Tang Cheng at this moment, but he didn't want Tang Cheng to just shake his head. "Xiao Wu, the director also knows about this matter. Uncle Bai, it's hard for me to ask you for help, you have to give me this face! Bai Zhanshan couldn't care about that Mr. Wei anymore, so he just lowered his voice and said to Tang Cheng, and even more so did not hesitate to move out of Nanjing.
Bai Zhanshan's origin, how could Wei Xiangguang, who was like a think tank strategist beside Huang Jinrong, not know, seeing that Bai Zhanshan looked polite to Tang Cheng at the moment asking for help, Wei Xiangguang immediately became curious about Tang Cheng's identity. It's just that in the conflict just now, his side suffered a loss after all, so when Wei Xiangguang saw that Tang Cheng looked like he was not going to eat oil and salt at the moment, the anger that had been being suppressed couldn't help but rise out.
"Sir Bai, I think you're all superfluous! Don't you see that he's asking for a price? Wei Xiangguang thought that he had found the right answer, but he didn't know that Bai Zhanshan and Tang Cheng were in their hearts almost at the same time, and they raised their middle fingers to express their contempt for him. The meeting that should have been smooth naturally failed, and after leaving the clinic, Bai Zhanshan's expression looked solemn and lost, but Tang Cheng still didn't care.
"Xiao Wu, you have to change your temper in the future, you will suffer if you continue like this!" Tang Cheng asked Bai Zhanshan to send him to a nearby shoe store, Bai Zhanshan continued to preach Tang Cheng on the way, but Tang Cheng didn't remember a word at all, he was thinking about what Xu Huanshan said in his heart at the moment.
"Uncle Bai, the Intelligence Department is also an independent department under the jurisdiction of the national government, no matter what Boss Huang or Boss Du is on the other side, the face of the Intelligence Department is not something that anyone can sweep. Although you didn't tell me why you went to see the person surnamed Wei, I think that if the director came in person today, he would never have given the faithful society such a face. In the final analysis, whether it is the Green Gang or the Faithful Society, they are just some local chickens and dogs, and the Intelligence Department can be regarded as a powerful unit in the military department! Uncle Bai, be tough! Especially since you represent the headquarters of the Intelligence Service! ”
When he got out of the car, Tang Cheng saw Bai Zhanshan's depressed expression, so he kindly reminded the other party, as for how much Bai Zhanshan can understand, it depends on his comprehension ability. In this meeting with the Faithful Society, Bai Zhanshan made the mistake of looking down on the other party, and at the same time underestimating the ability of the intelligence department. Even if the Green Gang is deeply rooted in Shanghai, the Intelligence Department is a powerful national agency, and even if the Green Gang claims to have 100,000 followers, if it really targets the state apparatus, I am afraid that it can only be low and small.
Tang Cheng stayed in the shoe store for a while, picked up two pairs of leather shoes that he had ordered here before, and then went out and took a rickshaw to the meeting place with Xu Huanshan. When Tang Cheng rushed to Hans's restaurant earlier, he found that there was someone watching on the opposite side of the restaurant, so he asked Xu Huanshan to leave first. When he left Hans's restaurant and was picked up by Bai Zhanshan in the car, he found that there were suspicious people in the street outside the restaurant, so he guessed that it might be someone sent by Xu Huanshan to rob him.
So after getting rid of Bai Zhanshan at this moment, Tang Cheng immediately rushed to meet Xu Huanshan, he was worried that this group of people from the Shanghai underground party would do something out of tune. "Huh?" The rickshaw was about to arrive at the place, but Tang Cheng unexpectedly found that there were many suspicious-looking hawkers and passers-by in the street where the meeting place was located, and according to his understanding of the underground party, Tang Cheng believed that these suspicious people should not be members of the Shanghai underground party.
Could it be that there are traitors within the Shanghai underground party again? With the doubts in his heart, Tang Chengjing asked the rickshaw to continue straight and go directly to the next street entrance. The rickshaw stopped at the corner of the street, and after getting off the bus, Tang Cheng slowly walked through the street, and with the cover of the tram, walked back along the opposite street, and then got into an alley on the side of the street. With the cover and cover of the tram, Tang Cheng who got into the alley would not attract attention, but in the blink of an eye, Tang Cheng had already climbed the brick wall on the east side of the alley.
The alley that Tang Cheng drilled into was not very long, but on the east side was a brick wall, and moving forward by stepping on the brick wall, Tang Cheng quickly climbed onto the roof of a 2-story building. Standing high and seeing far away, this sentence is true, but standing in this position in Tang Cheng at this moment, you can only see a small half of the street on the side, but you can't see the other parts. As a last resort, Tang Cheng had to jump off the roof and return to the alley, he needed a better vantage point, at least to be able to see the place Xu Huanshan said clearly.
