Volume 1 Crossing the rivers and lakes and wading into temples Chapter 48 The Mysterious Man
After Gu Wenbin finished speaking, Li Daniu looked at him in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Gu Wenbin explained: "The brothers below came to report, just before we came to the Qinglong Gang in the north of the city, all the casinos, taverns, pawnshops and other places in the downtown street of the Qinglong Gang were seized by Fu Zhili and Qin Xiaoqin!" ”
"I see!" Li Daniu suddenly realized.
Gu Wenbin didn't know the reason, and he was confused by what he said. Seeing this, Li Daniu explained: "When Ye Chen went to the dock to find me before, I was still a little hesitant. After all, the Qinglong Gang has been rooted in this Annan Province for so many years, and the network of relationships they operate is complicated, and if we don't get it right, our Kudong Gang will reap the consequences. Li Da Niu glanced at Gu Wenbin and continued: "But Ye Chen told me at the time that the extermination of the Qinglong Gang is the trend of the times, and he can help ensure that no one will come to trouble us afterwards. ”
Only then did Gu Wenbin understand that it turned out that these were all arranged by Ye Chen, maybe from the beginning, their Kudong Gang was within the plans of others. Gu Wenbin reminded: "Big brother, have you ever wondered why people from the government government would close down the large and small shops of the Blue Dragon Gang at the same time? ”
Li Daniu smiled: "You mean that Ye Chen has colluded with the people of the government?" ”
Gu Wenbin nodded in acquiescence, and Li Daniu also fell into deep thought, but he quickly said: "Ye Chen also said such a sentence when he mentioned to me about dividing the property of the Qinglong Gang equally. ”
Gu Wenbin immediately asked, "What words?" ”
Li Daniu said: "He said that they Anjiang will not be short of money, and the part he wants is not just for himself." ”
The weak scholar said thoughtfully: "You mean that this money is what he is going to supply to a certain big man in Annan Province?" ”
"Chances are, if that's the case, I don't think we'll have to worry about anything. It is difficult to let the people of the government come forward to settle the peripheral forces of the Blue Dragon Gang, if you don't give some benefits. After all, tonight's cleanup is also the biggest operation of the Annam Provincial Government in the past seven or eight years. Li Daniu said unhurriedly.
Gu Wenbin continued: "It's okay to say what you say, but I still feel a little unreal in my heart. It has only been a few months since we heard the name Anjiang Society, is this Anjiang Association really just what we see on the surface? ”
Li Daniu, who has always been informal, patted the scholar's shoulder and said with a smile: "You scholars, all day long in your head are all these deceptions, I am tired and panicked when I listen to it." Don't think about those who have it or not, you hurry up and help the brothers count the assets of the Blue Dragon Gang here, and investigate whether Zhao Qingming has any other unknown small treasury. If we all count on those of us who know all day long to fight against the big bag, then the accounts must not be wrong. ”
The scholar smiled and didn't say anything, turned around and went to take stock of the money and materials that Zhao Qingming had looted in the past few years.
Looking at the back of leaving, Li Daniu seemed to have something in his head, but the idea disappeared in a flash and he didn't grasp it.
Fenghua Building, this is the most lively since the opening of the business, even in the first three days of the opening has not been so lively. Wang Si took everyone to be very busy, but the slight difference was that these people came to eat to keep accounts, and they kept accounts to pay Ye Chen!
In the hall on the first floor, Chen Bing and Zou Hu were drinking with their fists, but they only saw Chen Bing pouring wine, and they didn't see Zou Hu drink once. The two big men at the same table laughed and said nothing, both anxious for Zou Hu, because they always couldn't win and drink. On the other hand, Chen Bing's face is no different from a monkey's buttocks.
Zou Hu quipped: "Brother, can you win, and let my brother relieve my hunger, you can't deliberately lose just because the boss buys good wine!" ”
Chen Bing scolded with a smile: "Get out, do you think Lao Tzu doesn't want to win, that's not allowed by strength!" ”
The men at the two tables next to him also came over to watch the excitement, and everyone followed suit. Chen Bing was not convinced, picked up the wine jar at his feet and said to Zou Hu: "How is this gambling altar?" Whoever loses and who drains this jar of wine, Bingye asks if you dare? Chen Bing looked around at everyone and continued: "If there is anyone who thinks they haven't drunk enough, come together!" ”
In this way, the twenty-two boxing competition began. And the wine cellar in Fenghualou was originally pre-stored for a month, but it was also exhausted tonight.
Listening to the noise of the brothers downstairs, Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh in the private room on the second floor. The brothers have been too depressed in the past month, especially after Kui left, everyone was like a fire in their hearts, and they finally burned today.
Ye Chen picked up his wine glass and said to the few people in front of him: "Thank you for your help today, thank you!" After speaking, he drank it all without dragging his feet.
There were a total of four people in the same box, Qin Xiaoqin, the inspector of Annan Province, Fu Zhili, and Yan Jingwen. In order to prevent being followed by other well-intentioned people, they all went directly to the second floor from the small courtyard behind Fenghua Building, and the staircase connecting this small courtyard to Fenghua Building was also secretly built by Ye Chen instructed Wang Si to facilitate the transmission of information.
Fu Zhili picked up the wine glass and took the lead in responding, and also drank it all, Yan Jingwen and Qin Xiaoqin both smiled and didn't speak, just drank the glass of wine.
Ye Chen continued: "Master Fu, I didn't know that you could bring someone to clean up the Qinglong Gang, thank you very much, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so well." Please also ask Lord Fu to forgive Ye Chen for failing to report the truth before, which is really helpless. ”
Fu Zhili smiled and waved his hand and said, "Ye Chen, what did you say." You don't say it's your responsibility, it's just that this official didn't expect that the person selected by Huangfu Leng would be so young, it's really a talent from the country, and the era of my generation is gone! ”
Dao Cheng Yan Jingwen, who had not spoken, also smiled: "Yes, we were also shocked when Lord Huangfu talked to us about this before returning to Gyeonggi Province, but I talked to Master Fu about the Anjiang Society, but I never thought that it would be a young man in his early twenties." The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and one wave is higher than the other! ”
Ye Chen waved his hand modestly, just wanted to explain, but Qin Xiaoqin said very puzzledly: "Shoot us to death on the beach immediately!" ”
Ye Chen gave him a blank look, this brother of his own, is good, he is always demolishing his own platform.
Before investigating and dealing with the dens of the Qinglong Gang, Ye Chen went to Qin Xiaoqin alone. At that time, Ye Chen asked Qin Xiaoqin: "Can I go to the Qinglong Gang now to settle accounts?" ”
Qin Xiaoqin replied: "Look at it yourself, Lord Huangfu has given you the right to be arbitrary. ”
Ye Chen asked again: "What should I do if someone dies?" ”
Qin Xiaoqin asked rhetorically: "Will you kill innocents indiscriminately?" ”
Ye Chen shook his head and asked again: "What should I do if I don't have enough manpower?" ”
Qin Xiaoqin replied: "I have a lot of people. ”
Ye Chen smiled and finally asked, "Have a meal after you finish your business?" ”
Qin Xiaoqin replied: "You must have good wine." ”
Just these few soul questions and answers decided the fall of the Blue Dragon Gang.
Qin Xiaoqin said with a smile: "Chenzi, you told me that you were going to find the stubble of the Qinglong Gang, but you didn't say that you were going to destroy the entire gang." ”
Ye Chen also smiled: "The actions of you and the two adults in the city are not as simple as just looking for faults." ”
Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and continued to drink.
In the private room next door, there are five pairs of dishes and chopsticks at a table of four people. The four of them only cared about drinking, and no one spoke, but every time they drank, one of them would have an extra drink.
During the night, the feast was over, and the crowd dispersed.
On the hill not far from the small courtyard in the west of the city, twenty-seven strong men wearing white scarves knelt down in front of Kui's grave, and everyone raised the bowls in their hands to send their brothers!
Zhao Qingming was tied with his hands and pressed to the ground, and his head was pressed against the stone slab in front of the grave. None of the people behind him said anything, just looked at this scene coldly, he deserved it.
Half an hour later, in the small courtyard in the west of the city, Ye Chen looked at the people standing in the courtyard and said: "Although we can kill him, killing him will not come back to life, but it will make people feel that our Anjiang Society is no different from ordinary gangs in the rivers and lakes, so I Ye Chen hereby implore everyone to hand over this Zhao Qingming to the government for disposal." ”
Zou Hu responded: "Boss, you are for our good, we listen to you." Hu Jie and Wu Youtian also responded.
Ye Chen looked at the four of them and said, "I know that you are not happy in your hearts, but I am not the same, it's just that because of our identity, it is not appropriate to kill him, but I guarantee that he will not be able to pass the Dahua Law." ”
The four of them looked at Ye Chen and didn't speak, just nodded simply. In fact, they all knew in their hearts that this was the best way for the Anjiang Association to deal with it.
Five days later, the government posted a notice announcing the eight crimes of Zhao Qingming, the leader of the Blue Dragon Gang. First, malicious homicide; second, to occupy other people's land; third, instigating his subordinates to rob people's daughters; Fourth, the gathering of crowds to fight has caused countless injuries and injuries to innocent people; Fifth, hyping up bad remarks; Sixth, disturbing the law and order in Annam Province; Seventh, persecuting the young women of their mother's family to sell themselves; Eighth, child trafficking. All kinds of incriminating evidence, appalling!
Three days later, on the day when Zhao Qingming asked for beheading, the entrance of the vegetable market in the east of the city was overcrowded. The people spontaneously watched, some threw eggs at Zhao Qingming, some threw vegetable leaves at him, and even strong men threw stones directly. However, none of the officers and soldiers on guard around stopped him, and everyone was punished.
At noon, the sun was shining, and it was also the time when Zhao Qingming's head landed.
In the crowd, Ye Chen watched all this silently without saying a word. Not far behind him stood the four dressed up Charm Spirits, who had come on behalf of Kui.
Standing at the outermost end of the crowd was a man wearing a hat, not tall, square-faced, and dark-skinned. When he saw Zhao Qingming's head fall to the ground, his fists were clenched, his joints gurgled, and his eyes were in tears. He really wanted to come forward to collect the body of this person who had been with him for decades, but there were too many officers and soldiers around, he couldn't go, and he had to keep this life to do something more important, revenge!
Outsiders only know that the Qinglong Gang has two masters, one is the golden thunder soldier and the other is the third master, that is, the third master in the mouth of the person Ye Chen caught tracking that night. But outsiders don't know what the real name of this third master is, and there are very few people who have seen him. He has a withdrawn and eccentric personality, even in the Blue Dragon Gang, he shows people with a mask, so no one else except Zhao Qingming has seen his true face in Lushan.
