Chapter 52: Hanxing Society
Thinking of the list of arms and equipment sent to the German consulate in the afternoon, Xie Niancheng wanted to laugh.
20,000 rifles, 5,000 submachine guns, 5,000 pistols, 2,000 light machine guns, 500 heavy machine guns, 200 80 mortars, 60 120 mortars, 36 75 field guns, 12 155 cannon howitzers, 80 million rifle machine gun bullets, and 500,000 shells of various types.
It is said that Xie Xinyi was so happy that he let several wives and concubines who had been in drought for a long time taste the rain and dew in three days after learning that he could get German machinery and equipment worth 10 million oceans for free.
Xie Niancheng can only see that about half of the equipment worth 10 million yuan is urgently needed by the Xie Group to expand production, and the other half is to be used to develop the basic industry in Sichuan.
With the arms and equipment, how to transport them in depends on Xie Niancheng.
Zhang Chengyue got up early, today is a big day for him, as soon as he saw Xie Niancheng go out, he came over with a smile: "Captain, I wronged you today." ”
Today, Zhang Chengyue wore a shirt and trousers, his hair was combed cleanly, and a pair of leather shoes were not dusty.
It's the same as the vicious guy who always dresses casually and is unkempt.
"Why are you dressed like this?"
"In the past, the captain was always mighty and domineering when he was important, but I specially asked Miss Yao to help me get this outfit today, how about it? Looks like someone who wants to be the boss, right? ”
Zhang Chengyue's brain is not stupid, but he didn't think about it carefully, is it an ordinary business company that opened today?
Seeing Lao Hei's bitterness in such a dress haha, the sense of distance can immediately reject people thousands of miles away.
Zhang Chengyue saw that Xie Niancheng was wearing coarse cloth clothes and shoes, and quickly reacted, and hurriedly went back to change into a loose body.
"Captain, I'm sorry, I forgot your lesson last time." Zhang Chengyue's dedication to the treasure was not contrary to being trained, and seeing that he had a job to do, he could show his skills, but it did not affect his good mood.
Xie Niancheng waved his hand and was about to take Zhang Chengyue to set off, when Lolita and Xia Na also walked out of the room.
Lolita was dressed casually, and Xana changed her body to a short one, her hair split into two strands on the left and right, and then formed into a ponytail at the back of her head.
"Big brother, I'm ...... I want to go out with you. Xana begged.
Next to her, Lolita helped Xia Na speak: "Big brother, Xia Na said that she had a headache reading books and didn't want to read anymore, she wanted to do something else." ”
This Xana is Russian, and since she was a child, she has been used to going up trees and rivers, riding horses and fighting dogs.
After arriving at Xie's house, it was a kind of torture to let her study, she looked for Kagura and Sister Cannon when she had time, and when she arrived in Guangzhou, she also found Zhang Chengyue to practice her fists and feet whenever she had the opportunity, seeing that Lolita had already taken on the telegraph work, she was tortured all day long, and she had long wanted to open her mouth and not study.
Xie Niancheng has never refused what the girls want to do, so he turned his head and asked, "Da Fei, how is Xia Na practicing now?" ”
"Captain, Xia Na's fists and feet are slightly stronger than ordinary men, and her marksmanship is not bad."
A thirteen-year-old cute girl can have this skill, although it can't compare to the demon of Kagura, it's not bad.
"Okay, Xana, you can follow Dafei first...... But you have to remember, see more and talk less, and do what you are told to do, understand? ”
Xana wanted to cheer, but Lolita next to her squeezed her hand, she reacted and nodded, "Yes, big brother!" "A look of obedience.
Lolita had no intention of going out with her, and after Xie Niancheng and the three left, she continued to go into the house to read her book.
People are like this, each with his own talents, each with his own preferences. If you want to pinch thousands of different people into one look, the ending is destined to pinch most of them.
Zhang Chengyue was in front, Xie Niancheng and Xia Na went to the dock agreed by Lao Hei left and right.
There were a lot of people on the dock, some pacing around, some squatting and smoking, and a few people getting together to brag and fart. Lao Hei and two sturdy men in sleeveless coats kept looking.
Seeing Zhang Chengyue and a few people arriving from a distance, Lao Hei shouted: "Pay attention, Brother Fei is here, I'll go over to greet you first, everyone is standing." ”
The men on the dock are all working, and they have a sense of discipline, everyone pushes me and squeezes me, and after a while, they reluctantly lined up, waiting for Zhang Chengyue and his party.
Lao Hei and the two men greeted him, and Lao Hei arched his hand: "Brother Fei is good." ”
He said to Xie Niancheng again: "Brother Chen is good." ”
The latter two men also introduced themselves, one was called "Mangzi", with dozens of injuries on his body, and he was notoriously deadly; One man, known as the "Water Ghost," was a sailor who could handle a boat, and each had several brothers under his command.
Lao **: "In the past few days, I have traveled all over Guangzhou, and told the folks about Feige's meaning, I am afraid that some people come for money, so I made my own opinion, and did not tell everyone that there is a settlement fee, only said that Feige wants to do a big business, and whoever dares to sell his life will have a lot of money." There are fifty-five brothers here today, and all of them dare to do anything. ”
Xie Niancheng asked beside him, "Are these people reliable?" ”
Lao Hei replied: "Brother Chen, please rest assured, I know the roots of each of these people, they are all our fellow countrymen, and they have never joined other gangs. ”
Xie Niancheng nodded, expressing satisfaction.
Zhang Chengyue said: "Lao Hei, you have done a good job...... Let's go and meet the brothers. ”
Xie Niancheng saw that Xia Na's little face looked unhappy, and knew that she had some opinions about being ignored, so he helped her introduce it: "Old black, reckless, water ghost, this girl is called Xia Na, and she has been messing with Fei Ge a long time ago. ”
The seniority on the rivers and lakes is regardless of age, and the old black people thought that Xia Na was a maid at first, but they didn't expect her to come out to mingle, so they hurriedly arched their hands: "Sister Na, offended." ”
Xana was delighted: "Hello brothers. ”
Fortunately, the little girl didn't get carried away, and she still closed her mouth obediently after saying hello.
When a few people arrived at the small pier, looking at these ragged, somewhat malnourished men in front of them, but all of them had a fierce look in their eyes, Xie Niancheng and Zhang Chengyue were very satisfied.
Zhang Chengyue said: "Brothers, my name is Zhang Chengyue, you can call me Brother Da Fei in the future, I don't want to be soft, do you dare to follow me to do big business?" ”
"Dare!"
Everyone replied in unison.
"Okay, I won't say anything else, I'll prepare the wine and I'll talk about it when I get to the place."
A small steamer drove to the small pier, which was ordered by Xie Niancheng.
"Let's get on the boat and go have a drink!"
Zhang Chengyue got on the boat first, and after Xie Niancheng and Xia Na, there were old black, reckless, water ghosts, and then dozens of men.
The boat left the wharf and walked for about two hours by water to a village on the outskirts of Guangzhou.
This village is called Meiling Village, and the village is not large, with only a dozen families.
The group got out of the boat and went straight to the largest courtyard in the village.
The previous owner of this yard was the largest landowner in the area, and the owner wanted to invest in the factory, so he sold the yard and the surrounding land, and moved his family to the city.
This was ordered by Xie Niancheng to be set up by Liu Hongtao, and this will be a planned smuggling base.
Entering the empty courtyard, Zhang Chengyue and the three of them walked up the steps of the courtyard, Lao Hei led everyone to line up at the bottom of the steps, and Lao Hei, Mangzi, and the water ghost stood slightly ahead.
Zhang Chengyue began to speak: "Brothers, when you come here, you are a family, come, serve wine." ”
Xie Niancheng took one of the dozens of wine jars that had been prepared on the side of the courtyard and put it on the steps.
Zhang Chengyue opened the mud seal, and a smell of wine wafted out, making the bitter men below salivate.
Zhang Chengyue took out a knife and slashed it on his fingers, and a few drops of blood dripped into the jar, which was the most solemn blood wine in the initiation ceremony of the Sichuan Gang.
After drinking this wine, he wants to live and die with the gang, and if anyone betrays, there will naturally be three knives and six holes waiting for him.
Xie Niancheng didn't move, he was Zhang Chengyue's boss, of course he wouldn't drink Zhang Chengyue's first dripping blood, you know, his status in the gang is to look at the order of blood drops.
Zhang Chengyue explained: "Brother Chen is not our person here in the future, he is sent by my eldest brother to help temporarily, and he is our guest." ”
According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, Keqing only drinks alcohol and does not drip blood when the altar is opened.
Xia Na stepped forward, took Zhang Chengyue's jar, and cut it into the palm of the white jade without hesitation, and the blood also dripped into the wine like beads.
Lao Hei, Mangzi, and Water Ghost led everyone to cut their hands and drip blood.
Watching the blood drop by drop into the wine jar, the mood of everyone present was extremely solemn.
Han people don't pay attention to ghosts and gods, but blood and blood, and this wine mixes everyone's blood, which means that everyone really becomes a family.
After everyone finished dripping blood, Zhang Chengyue picked up the wine jar and poured a bowl for everyone.
Zhang Chengyue held the bowl in both hands, saw that everyone also raised the bowl, and said solemnly: "Brothers, after doing this bowl of wine, it is a family, and from now on we will share blessings and difficulties." If anyone disobeys the gang rules, he will die with three knives and six holes, and there will be no place to bury! ”
Xie Niancheng led everyone to shout: "Share the blessings and share the difficulties." ”
"It's done!"
After the men raised their heads and dried the wine in the bowl, they smashed the bowl hard.
"Bang Bang Bang-"
The porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and there were splinters everywhere.
This one has a special idea, called "full house", which means that it can be prosperous in the future.
This altar is drunk, according to the traditional ceremony, the second brother of the gang reads out the gang rules, and the eldest brother assigns duties, but this is obviously for the gang established today, it will obviously be said later.
A bold man below asked at the top of his voice: "Brother Fei, what is our name Gang, we still have to have a name." ”
Fortunately, this Xie Niancheng is prepared.
Zhang Chengyue said loudly: "Brothers, we will call it Hanxing Society!" ”
"Good!"
The people below shouted in unison.
Xie Niancheng walked out of the courtyard and instructed the employees of the public relations department of the Xie Group, who came to help temporarily, to send the prepared banquet into the city and quietly return to the city.
Since then, Xia Na and Zhang Chengyue have been together, according to Xie Niancheng's instructions, to arrange for these people from the Hanxing Club to practice martial arts and shoot, and take charge of the affairs of the Hanxing Society.
The journey of the "red-haired demon" began on this day.
