Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Monkey Mask

It turned out that there were not many people involved in this criminal gang, including * himself, but there were only about 20 people, which was different from what Liu Dongsheng imagined at the beginning, but although there were only more than 20 people, its internal organization was tight, the hierarchy was strict, and the division of labor was clear, and it was a relatively formal criminal group.

Among these more than 20 people, the biggest leader is the old man, followed by the shopkeeper, and below is the "guy", people like Liangzi and Chen Junsheng are actually the "guys" in this gang, and with the degree of participation of that Liu Chang, it is really not even a buddy, at most it is just a stolen goods.

According to *, all the big cases in the gang are done by the old man, most of them are tomb robbers, and some tombs are even under the factory, and I don't know how this "old man" was found.

The distribution of interests within the organization is quite generous, * occupation was around 1982, when the "shopkeeper" could share about 100,000 yuan per person per transaction, and there was an average of one transaction every two or three months, which was astronomical at that time, and the identity of * at that time was only a "buddy", earning four or five thousand yuan a month, which was unimaginable for the salaried class who only had a salary of fifty or sixty yuan a month at that time.

"Eighty-two years began?" Liu Dongsheng is very lucky, according to him, every two or three months, it has been five years since 82, and the country does not know how many precious cultural relics have been lost in the hands of these people..."Then how did you become a 'shopkeeper'?" Liu Dongsheng asked.

"The next shopkeeper must be in the house for more than a year, and it must be recommended by the previous shopkeeper..."* said silently, "My last 'shopkeeper' is called Wu Jiang, we all call him 'Brother Jiang', and he has been working with the shopkeeper for three years, that person is very greedy, and he has never been arrested for doing big things, but always goes in because of some trivial things, and then we guys have to find a way to go to the relationship to entrust him to get him out..., the shopkeeper said that he committed too many crimes, and it was easy to be targeted by the public security, so he said that he would arrange for him to go abroad, and then he recommended me..."

"Why did he recommend you? And why did you turn yourself in? Liu Dongsheng was puzzled.

"Because... I was Brother Jiang's apprentice in the factory, and at first I really thought he was going abroad, but then I found out that he had died in a tomb..."* looked up and said, "And it's the old man's own hand..."

"Oh? Where's the tomb? Hearing the news, Liu Dongsheng's nerves immediately tensed.

"Shaanxi..."* said.

"Is it Nantian Village, Liquan County, Shaanxi?" Liu Dongsheng frowned.

"It's Liquan, I don't know which village..."* pouted.

In *mouth, this old man is a ruthless person, and very weird. Every time the tomb is dug up, at least one shopkeeper is brought to help, the jargon is called "take a hand", several shopkeepers come in shifts, sometimes, the tomb is dug up, the old man goes back without looking at it, and the rest of the things are all handled by the shopkeeper himself, but sometimes although the tomb is dug up, he does not let anything move, just take one or two pieces or keep it for himself, there is nothing to do with the shopkeeper, at first nothing, but later the grave that can be handled by the shopkeeper himself is becoming less and less, and the bad shopkeeper can not touch a tomb that can be taken casually for half a year, finally dug one up, but the old man didn't let him move.

These people from top to bottom, from the shopkeeper to the guys basically have no job, no matter how much money they saved before, they didn't come to buy and sell, especially the shopkeeper like Brother Jiang, the two children are going to school abroad, and they get a tuition fee of tens of thousands of dollars a year, and they can't afford to carry it, so later, these shopkeepers are also long-minded, regardless of its rules, first support the family and then talk about it, since then, these shopkeepers are in their turn to give the old man's When taking a hand, he always first informed his men of the specific time and place, and then secretly left some marks at the crime scene, regardless of whether the old man in the tomb let him move or not, and as soon as he and the old man left, his men went to sweep the tail and moved everything that could be moved.

Wu Jiang, the previous shopkeeper, once secretly told Zhang Jian that he was going abroad to join his two sons, and now there is a big deal in Shaanxi, which is the last time he "helped" the old man before he went abroad, so this business must be moved and sold for himself regardless of whether the old man let him move or not, so as to make up for himself to go abroad, and said that the specific situation will leave a letter in a guest house in Liquan County, Shaanxi, and finally said that he has recommended * to the old man as his successor.

After receiving this news, * without saying a word, took a few "guys" and went straight to Shaanxi, in the guest house in Liquan County, there was really a letter from Wu Jiangliu, the letter explained the location of the ancient tomb and what kind of marks he would make, etc., according to the clues left on the letter, * and the rest of the guys found the entrance to the cave very smoothly, at that time the tomb robbers had obviously left, the hole was well hidden, and the ground could not be seen at all, according to the mark left by Wu Jiang, * dug down more than half a meter deep to find the hole again, As a result, a few people went to the tomb to lift the lid of the coffin, only to find that their shopkeeper was lying inside.

"So... Before you became the shopkeeper, you knew that Wu Jiang had been killed by the old man? Liu Dongsheng suddenly realized that the case of Nantian No. 1 Tomb was committed by this group, "Then you still dare to be the shopkeeper?" ”

"When there is a reason, there must be a reason for impropriety..."* said helplessly, "Being a shopkeeper may be dangerous, but if you are not appropriate, the danger is even greater!" ”

According to the * statement, the "guy sweeps the tail" thing is done secretly by the people below the old man, everyone knows the means of this old man, there was a shopkeeper who secretly came out of the tomb without the permission of the old man, and was dealt with in public, the means are incredible, it is said that he died while laughing, and his face was purple when he died, as if the oxygen inhaled into the lungs was not absorbed, and the old man also arranged for a few shopkeepers to bury this person, When he was buried, he personally put the small jade pillar into the mouth of the corpse, and then there were two shopkeepers who were afraid that the place where the corpse was buried, so they took a few guys to secretly go to the place where the corpse was buried, and found that the filled pit had collapsed, and the soil on the surface was messed up, as if the corpse had crawled out of the ground by itself, and a few people thought about it and decided to dig it up, but after digging it up, several people were shocked, obviously the corpse was buried face up, why is it lying on its stomach now? Could it be that the dead will turn over? And after being buried for five or six days, there is still blood on his body, just like a living person?

After that time, this old man not only left a ruthless impression on everyone, but also made everyone feel that this person did not look like a real "person" to some extent.

Therefore, although these guys under Wu Jiang were afraid, none of them dared to show that they knew about Wu Jiang's death, and they also became the shopkeeper head-on, and there was nothing wrong at first, but then there was a mysterious disappearance of the shopkeeper named Tian Rong, according to the old man, he also arranged to go abroad, and at the same time, the things that the old man kept for himself were taken out again, and Tian Rong's successor was arranged to deal with it secretly, this person was Liu Jie, who was killed by Liu Dongsheng's father-in-law Sun Wei.

"Tian Rong is dead, and the shopkeepers of the previous generation are basically dead..."* said, "I know that the fate of our group of shopkeepers is not much better." So just turn yourself in..."

"Wu Jiang, Tian Rong..."Liu Dongsheng wrote down these names one by one, "How old is the old man you are talking about?" ”

"Listen to the voice... There should be about forty..."* Dao.

"What do you mean by listening to sounds?" Liu Dongsheng frowned, and said in his heart, what kind of character is this old man? Forced his subordinates to turn themselves in and take refuge in prison, for the first time in history...

"None of us have ever seen him... When he was with us, he always wore a monkey mask..."* said, "It's the kind that children wear during the Chinese New Year, with two holes in their eyes, and an elastic band on their heads at the back... And..."* frowned, "Maybe it's because I have a bad memory... The man can't see the old man, only the shopkeeper can... I'd only seen him twice before I came in, and there was a gap of half a year in between... But the two times I saw him, it didn't seem to sound the same..."

"Oh? How is it different? Liu Dongsheng also wondered, could it be that the old man had been replaced?

"I can't tell... It seems to be a little thinner..."* said.

"And what's his name? How tall is it? Liu Dongsheng said.

"I don't know..."* shook his head, "I can't escape his palm just by hearing the voice, who dares to know what his name is?" Height... It's about 1.7 meters..."

"It's so dangerous, you dare to introduce your son to join the gang?" Liu Dongsheng recorded while asking.

"It's all that Chen Junsheng!" * There was an indescribable ferocity in Ei's eyes, "I knew it would be like this, I should have gotten rid of him before I came in...!" ”

*'s daughter-in-law Zuo Huilan is a good gambler, and she loses money at both ends in three days, so although she has a little dirty money, she doesn't dare to let her daughter-in-law know where she puts it, and she is ready to leave it to her son to become a family in the future.

Before coming in, * had told Chen Junsheng where he hid the money, and said that if he was arrested one day, he would definitely hand over the money to his son, but from the current situation, Chen Junsheng not only did not give the money to Liangzi, but also pulled Liangzi into the water, and eventually led to the death of both himself and Liangzi.

"People die for money..."Liu Dongsheng shook his head helplessly, "Do you know Li Shulin?" ”

"He..."* pursed his lips, "He's the shopkeeper I recommended... According to the rules, you must recommend a shopkeeper... Otherwise, my family might be in trouble..."

"Didn't you say that the shopkeeper must be in the house for more than a year?" Liu Dongsheng said.

"Report the government... As soon as I came in, only Chen Junsheng was the only one who had been in the gang for more than a year... At his age, it's impossible to 'take a hand'..."* said, "Li Shulin, I've observed this person for a full year, he is very greedy, and he is suitable to be a shopkeeper..."

"I know..."Liu Dongsheng smiled slightly, "Now, the cultural relics you have resold... And all that you know of your accomplices, and your home addresses, tell me, dead or alive..."

"Report the government... This one... And catch the old man... Does it matter...? "* Grimacing.

"Nonsense..."Liu Dongsheng picked up the pen, "Don't catch them, you come and tell me where that old man lives...!" ”

"Hmm..."* lowered his head again, "I only know the names of my men... Several other shopkeepers were all new when I came in, and in addition to Liu Jie, I knew that there was a man named Ma Yang... Most of their men are also newcomers... The ones they use are all nicknames... Now these young people are much more cunning than we were then..."

"Ma Yang..."Liu Dongsheng began to bow his head to record, "Go on... Nicknames are also fine... None of them can be bad... I'm telling you, I'm not just trying to get you leniency right now... It's buying time for your wife, the sooner the old man catches it, the sooner your husband and wife can reunite... Let's talk about it first... What the old man eliminated and gave to Liu Jie, what do you know...! ”
