Chapter 245: Sweeping away the evil and eliminating evil

Haijing has now become the world's largest international metropolis and the most brilliant Oriental Pearl. Xia Xue stood in the office of the angel headquarters, looking at the incomparably prosperous Dahaijing, and couldn't help but smile with relief.

Xia Xue knew that many problems could not be found while sitting in the palace, sitting in the yamen, or sitting in the office, so she liked to take the Ouyang brothers and sisters in disguise when she was free, and then go to the grassroots level of the society to pay private visits and secret visits.

On this day, Xia Xue disguised herself as a handsome young man and went to eat with the Ouyang brothers and sisters at a more famous "Majiaxiang Restaurant" in Haijing. After entering the restaurant, I found that the "Majiaxiang Restaurant", which used to have a booming business and a full of customers, was deserted, only a table against the wall sat four tattooed men with cross-faced faces, they drank there, and continued to drink after a glance at Xia Xue.

The boss of the restaurant is five big and three thick, chubby, especially his honest smile, which is even more cute.

Seeing the customers coming, they should have greeted them happily and warmly, but now they greeted them with a bitter and melancholy face, smiled bitterly at Xia Xue, and beckoned them to sit at the table by the door.

"What do you want to eat?" Boss Ma bent down and asked.

Xia Xue looked at the recipe and was about to answer, when the tattooed men who drank staggered over, "Hey, these guest officers, you may not know that Majiaxiang Restaurant is a black-hearted restaurant, and the rancid meals are processed and sold to customers to eat to make black-hearted money." ”

"No, no, I'm a Ma Min restaurant has always been based on integrity and quality, I swear to God, I have never sold a rancid meal......" Boss Ma blushed in defense.

"Then why did my brother vomit and diarrhea after eating a meal at your place two days ago, and now he is still lying in bed taking medicine." One of the big men with a scar on his face yelled at Boss Ma.

Boss Ma trembled with fright, and swallowed back the words he hadn't finished speaking.

Ouyang Yong knew at a glance that these big men were not good people, he had eaten a few times in the "Majiaxiang Restaurant" before, the food was very delicious and delicious, and it was also very fresh and clean, he was fine after eating, there were a lot of customers inside, and no one had ever said that he had eaten the food of the "Majiaxiang Restaurant".

He stood up, straightened his muscular xiong, glared at him, and drank: "We can eat wherever we like, what do you care about?" It's just that the food here is rancid, and we like to eat here, so what's in your way! ”

As soon as that scarface looked at Ouyang Yong's head, muscles, and murderous aura, he knew that he was not a person to mess with. Look at Xia Xue, a handsome young man, with a lofty instrument and an extraordinary bearing. Even the young beauty with clear eyebrows next to her also has a sharp atmosphere. Knowing that he encountered hard stubble today, he often mixed with people on the road, his intuition was very accurate, they have always bullied the soft and feared the hard, and when they encounter hard stubble, they will naturally be soft.

"Hmph, I don't know what to do, then you can eat if you like to eat gluttony, Boss Ma, you have to prepare my brother's medical expenses as soon as possible, and we will get them in two days." After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and walked out of the "Majiaxiang Restaurant" with several other tattooed men.

After Boss Ma saw these big men leaving, he took a long breath, hurriedly thanked Xia Xue and the others, and greeted Xia Xue and the others with a smile on his face.

Xia Xue ordered five special dishes, and Boss Ma immediately ran to the back kitchen to prepare, and after a while, several special Hunan dishes with full color and flavor were served.

Xia Xue and the others began to eat, and Boss Ma warmed another pot of wine, brought it up and said to Xia Xue and them: "Guest officer, thank you for trusting me today and relieving me, this pot of wine is counted as the three of me who I invited, and I don't have to pay." ”

Xia Xue asked, "Who are they?" ”

"Alas-" Boss Ma sighed, looking sad and helpless, "A few of them are people who fight the industry, and they came to collect protection money from me two days ago, and I didn't give it in time, so they deliberately found excuses to blackmail and blackmail, so that I couldn't do business, these people we ordinary people can't afford to mess with." The person who fights is a piece of hob meat that makes people helpless, and if they get it, they have to admit bad luck. ”

"What do you do? Collecting protection money? Who gave them the right? Xia Xue was furious when she heard this, isn't this the underworld of the future? dared to make trouble in Haijing in the Tang Dynasty.

"What, what, what?" Ouyang Qian and Ouyang Yong also asked inexplicably.

Xia Xue has vaguely understood: extortion, collecting protection money, people bleeding, officials say peace, invite the black boss to eat and drink? How is it so similar to the shots in later underworld movies and some anti-corruption films. With the increasing prosperity of Haijing and the gradual formation of an international commercial metropolis, the darkness hidden under the light has actually grown so quickly?

The owner of the hotel knew that they were outsiders, but he had no scruples, so he told everything he knew. These things have blood and tears, there are also in the past, and there are also in the present, and the more prosperous the place, the more there are.

Xia Xue listened silently, and felt that these social tumors were very tricky to clean up, even if she was put in Haijing to be treated according to the routine, I was afraid that she would have to hammer the mosquitoes with a thousand pounds, and there was nowhere to use it.

Xia Xue listened to the strange stories told by the owner of the hotel, and was stroking her knees and sighing, thinking about countermeasures.

Hearing that even Wang Fa was helpless, Ouyang Yong was already furious, and he slapped the table, and the cups and plates made a chaotic sound.

The owner of the hotel looked at it in amazement, only to see Ouyang Yong's face flushed and murderous. Xia Xue, a handsome young man, has a powerful eyes and a cold face.

Even the young woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes said indignantly: "Punishment can't control crime, law can't win over adultery, what kind of world?" Troubled times should be re-enacted! ”

Haijing's fight against the underworld and evil is about to begin

Everything in the world is always complemented by yin and yang. In a small village, there may be one or two shrews and scoundrels, but in a large city, there will be more ruffians.

Haijing, as the world's largest international city and treaty port, has an increasing flow of Chinese and foreign tourists, and an increasing number of urban populations.

These hooligans formed a gang, which was called a fighting line, similar to the "gangsters" and "underworlds" in later generations. They have become a cancer in Haijing, such as abduction, extortion, extortion, imposing protection money from small traders and hawkers, and being responsible for collecting cashiers to beat people on behalf of others, robbing business territory, and dealing with competitors.

Some gangs use the number of leaders to name the gang, what are the 13 Taibao, 36 Tiangang, 72 Disha, and some use the weapons used to name them, such as the axe gang, the machete gang, the mallet gang, the folding stool gang, the iron rod gang, etc., crisscrossing the market, gambling, drinking, bullying and dominating the market, it is really everything.

As soon as these people encountered a murder case, they regarded it as a strange commodity to live in, and as long as they inquired about the bitter master's relatives, they immediately sent their brothers to pretend to be relatives of the deceased, extorted excessively, and even forced people to break their homes. Otherwise, they will commit perjury, especially if they provoke businessmen from other places, who are cowardly and afraid, and who are away from home, and in the end, most of them swallow their anger and let out some blood.

At that time, the gangs were not as clear as those who violated the law and banned in later generations, such as Lao Qian, counterfeiting and selling counterfeits, bullying and dominating the market, acting as thugs, collecting protection money, blackmailing people, and doing everything in civil and military affairs.

There are some gangs that are specifically responsible for counterfeiting, once there was a gang of people who used fake silver to buy cattle in Ningbo, and the owner of the cattle took the fake silver and then went to pay taxes, but the government saw through it and investigated him for the crime of forging silver taels. Ordinary people only saw that Liu hooligan just made a few ingots of fake silver and cheated some property, who would have thought that behind this was actually the destruction of other people's families?

There are also many people who sell counterfeit medicines, fake wines, and counterfeit antiques, and many ordinary people have eaten the fake medicines they make and drunk their fake wine and died.

Although the behavior of these ruffians has made the people uneasy, if they really want to go to court, one evidence is difficult to find, and the other is not enough to cut off the head, and not enough to sentence, and beat the board. That hooligan scoundrel can use shady tricks to make you uneasy every day, so most of the people choose to swallow their anger.

The gang that bullied the boss of the "Ma Jiaxiang Restaurant" Ma is a group of more than 20 righteous brothers known as the Twenty-Eight Tigers, and the boss is called Scar Tiger. These people often go to restaurants in Haijing to eat and act as pickpockets, and they also forcibly collect protection money, and the hotel owner dares to be angry but does not dare to speak.

Boss Ma also said that these gangs still have some skills to make money from the dead, such as picking up a lonely and helpless dying old and young man on the road and bringing him back, quietly killing him, throwing him at the door of the business, and then pretending to be relatives and friends to come to the door to make money.

Ouyang Yong was so angry when he heard this, and said angrily: "It is said that Xu Yougong, the mayor of Haijing, is a clean official and has a good way of governing the government, is it possible that there is so much darkness under his nose, and he actually turns a blind eye?" ”

Boss Ma smiled bitterly: "I don't complain about the mayor, now Haijing is full of people coming and going every day, shoulder to shoulder, and the manpower of Haijing Yamen is not enough to deal with normal cases of official complaints, besides, what is the big crime of these people who can make people catch the handle?" Isn't it just to collect some protection money, or extort some money, and cry as a relative of the bitter master?

For that people, firewood, rice, oil, and salt are life, and this kind of trouble is enough to kill him, but when he arrives at the government, he can't be sentenced. What can you do? They will make good excuses when they extort money, and they will also find excuses to collect protection money, and it is difficult to seize the evidence, and the officials have no way. As for pretending to be a relative of the bitter lord to cry at the door, and the relatives of the family died tragically, they still don't want to come to the door to cry? Even if he is impartial and impartial, he will report to that family tenfold, and that family will not dare to come to the government to report the case again for the sake of peace.

These ruffians have taken advantage of the law, and what they do is enough for you to cover a great sin, but the evil they do is enough to make the people desperate. Heavy codes in troubled times? Alas! Even the mayor of Haijing, Xu Yougong, does not have this arbitrary power, how easy is it to do it? ”

Xia Xue sneered, "Boss Ma, you legal merchants only need to pay taxes to the state according to the regulations, and you don't have to pay any fees that are not explicitly stipulated in any other country." Then he and the Ouyang brothers and sisters got up and said goodbye.

Boss Ma was stunned, listening to this tone is not something ordinary people can say, who are the three of them?

After Xia Xue and Ouyang brothers and sisters came out, they immediately went straight to the Haijing City City Hall.

……

In the meeting room of the city hall, the atmosphere was solemn. Haijing Mayor Xu Yougong, Police Chief Wang Fangyi, and Black-clothed Guard Commander Dugujun were sitting in danger.

Xia Xue introduced to everyone the situation of the gangsters in Haijing City that she heard about in Majiaxiang Restaurant, and Xu Yougong, the mayor of Haijing, and Wang Fangyi, the chief of the police department, broke out in a cold sweat when they heard it. In the case of such a serious public order problem in their jurisdiction, these two well-known "clean officials" in history felt disgraced and deeply ashamed.

Xia Xue didn't blame them too much, after all, the activities of these gangs are very hidden, the evidence is difficult to find, and the people and merchants are afraid to report or litigate because of fear, lack of witnesses, and it is difficult to handle the case according to the rules.

Since you can't play cards according to the convention, then you can do something special and not play cards according to the rules. Xia Xue has never been a cautious conservative who follows the rules.

Xia Xue's beautiful eyes shone with a decisive light, and she said to Xu Yougong: "Xu Qing! ”

Xu Yougong, who had a gentle face, hurriedly left the table and knelt down, and said, "The minister is here!" ”

"This matter is handed over to you, a group of local chickens and dogs, solve it quickly, and don't indulge it in vain!"

"Yes! The ministers must crack down hard, arrest as soon as possible, judge cases quickly, deal with them severely, and completely sweep away these monsters! Haijing Mayor Xu Yougong replied categorically.

The police station and the black guards fully cooperated with Mayor Xu's "anti-gang and evil" operation, and the operation code name was "Operation Hurricane".

"Yes!" Wang Fangyi, the tall and burly police chief with sideburns and beard, and Dugu Jun, the handsome and upright black-clothed guard commander, also left the table and knelt on the ground, shouting orders.

The matter that Empress Changsun personally pays attention to, that is a big thing.

After Xia Xue left the city hall, the mayor of Haijing, Xu Yougong, immediately ordered all the officials and police officers in the city to gather in the hall of the city hall.

Soon after, all the personnel arrived, and the atmosphere in the hall of the city hall was solemn and silent, and everyone knew that something big was about to happen.

Xu Yougong, mayor of Haijing, said straight to the point: "Haijing is currently rampant with gangsters, which has seriously threatened Haijing's social security and business environment. In this gangster case, I don't care which of you has a relationship with them. I don't care who of you has done anything for them before. Even if you were still covered last night, and followed the ruffians and gang bullies in Haijing to rob the house, I will forgive you this crime! ”

Haijing Mayor Xu Yougong glanced at it coldly, and cold sweat broke out on the vests of these Haijing officials and policemen who were bluffed. Xu Yougong said compassionately: "This mayor gave you this gold medal for avoiding death today, so you don't have to be afraid that the people who used to be brothers and sisters will bite you out." But! From now on, those who dare to shield criminals, those who report the news, and those who are in the same boat, regardless of the size of the crime, will be strictly punished! ”

All the officials and police officers in Haijing City burst into flames, and the lobby was suddenly murderous.

When these smiling tigers are harmless, they look like they are smiling and making money, and if they really want to turn their faces, they are all living Hades who eat people and don't spit out bones.

Xu Yougong has always been iron-faced and selfless, and the mayor of Haijing, who was personally recommended by Empress Changsun, is powerful, and the officials and police of Haijing City know it. Now that Xu Yougong has given his words to this part, who would dare to bend the law for personal gain? Anyway, Xu Yougong gave them a gold medal for avoiding death, and without worries, the murderous aura of these people was mobilized.

Xu Yougong didn't tell them the 'three subordinates' of "strictness, seriousness, and speed", they were originally a group of devouring tigers, and if they were allowed to be unscrupulous, what would it be? Immediately, Xu Yougong transferred a large number of people from nearby prefectures and counties to assist them in handling the case, and Haijing was as calm and prosperous as ever on the surface, but secretly the so-called "Hurricane Operation" began in full swing to sweep away gangsters, eliminate evil, and crack down on evil.

Three days later, on the night of the night, a market management official in Haijing was invited to come forward to make peace, and the boss of the "Ma Jiaxiang Restaurant" Ma set up a banquet and openly pleaded guilty to the 28 tigers in Haijing. When the twenty-eight tiger boss Scar Tiger led a group of brothers to proudly receive three hundred taels of silver from the boss of the "Majiaxiang Restaurant", the policemen and black-clothed guards who had already been ambushed nearby rushed out and took them all down.

As soon as this signal was issued, the entire Haijing net collection operation began. Groups of policemen, special policemen, black-clothed guards, and government officials, patrol inspectors, and people who had just been transferred and did not know what was going on began to arrest people one by one according to the list that had been drawn up in advance.

The arrest went unusually well, and it was late at night, and most of the people returned home. Second, because Empress Changsun was fortunate to drive Haijing, these gang members had already been instructed by the boss. Recently, there have been a lot of settlers, and they just want to avoid this limelight, so they all stay at home in peace, and there are almost no fish that slip through the net.

The people's hearts are like iron, and the official law is like a furnace. Under the instructions of letting go of their hands and feet and not having to follow the common law, the black guards' "torture" art had not been performed for long, and these hooligans explained the matter of abduction and abduction clearly. The interrogation, evidence collection, and sentencing were extremely fast, and before the arrest caused panic among the people, all kinds of rumors had not yet come and spread, and the verdict of these gang members had been publicly announced. The slaughter of the killing, the closure of the pass, the exile of the exile, by the sixth day the dust had settled.

"Use thunderbolt means to show the heart of the Bodhisattva", although such a thunderous method is the rule of man rather than the rule of law, but there is nothing to criticize. There is always some new sin, and a new legal counterpart will arise. It will take a few years to investigate and study and formulate new laws at the earliest, but can we turn a blind eye to the tremendous damage caused to society and all kinds of harm to the people during this time?

Crime is like a virus, the law is anti-virus software, when it is too late to have an effect, and the normal development of society, then it can only be formatted. Although Xia Xue is a soft woman, she does things without hesitation when she makes a decision, and she is more manly than a man.

In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures were used, and this move really had an unexpected effect, and the first to applaud were the small and medium-sized traders from all over the country who rushed to do business, the operators of Goolan, tea shops, vegetable markets, restaurants, and taverns, as well as the ordinary people at the lowest level of society.

This time, more than 2,000 people were cut down in Haijing City's "anti-gang and evil" operation, and more than 3,000 people were imprisoned and exiled. The few small shrimps that occasionally slipped through the net were in danger of themselves, and they walked with a gutter. With the prosperity of Haijing, the gangs, gangs, and "underworld" forces that had just become active and growing were completely struck, and the atmosphere in Haijing was greatly reversed.

Xia Xue personally sat in command, the most worried is that it will affect the normal order and business development of Haijing, after everything is done, he and Xu Yougong and others respectively investigated and secretly visited for a period of time, and found that Haijing City is stable, the public order is good, the market is prosperous, and it has not caused any turmoil, Xia Xue and Xu Yougong are completely relieved.
