Chapter 525 Bullying Men and Women
More than 10 men in strong suits poured out of the night market, wearing black silk breasted coats, and their expressions were very arrogant.
They forcibly collected fees along the night market stalls, causing chaos at the scene to the frightened residents with their children to dodge.
These men also took the opportunity to rub oil and touched the buttocks of women passing by, which attracted the women to scream and reprimand.
These thugs were not ashamed, but laughed proudly.
Richard's ears and eyes were extremely perceptive, and he could hear the rampant clamor of these wicked people;
"Lao Tzu is a member of the Four Seas Gang, this street is the territory of our Four Seas Gang, if you want to do business here, you have to pay a regular fee, who dares to disobey the rules, break your leg first, and then throw it out."
"The sky and the earth are big, and the Four Seas Gang is the biggest."
"Sensei nonsense, hurry up and pay the money, the master is still busy!"
"What are you shouting police? The older generation of our Four Seas Gang has shed blood and contributed to the emperor, and this Taoyuan Police Station is full of uncles, don't you let your eldest nephew beg for food on the turf? It's useless for you to shout through the sky......"
Hearing these arrogant words, Richard's originally happy mood disappeared, and his face became even more ugly.
It's so presumptuous!
These social moths of gangs and factions are simply a big hazard, and it seems that they will not work unless they are punished with heavy hands.
Emperor Richard still knew something about these street gangsters;
Many of them were born into military families of the older generation, and among the veterans who were originally placed on the Colorado Plateau, which family did not have three or five wives?
There are robbed Caucasian women, Indian women, and Chinese wives who marry after development, and the average retired military family has many children.
Five or six, seven or eight are ordinary things, and more than ten or twenty children are not uncommon, basically they can't be managed, and many of them are laissez-faire.
in these families
The children of the descendants can receive more attention and get more complete educational opportunities, but the children of the side branches are much worse. Many children drop out of school early at home or mingle in society, and develop a bad habit of being lazy and lazy.
The influx of Chinese immigrants into the empire brought with them the fine traditions of hard work, simplicity, diligence and thrift, and the cultural genes of filial piety to parents and family inheritance.
Some of the gangs that had arisen in the provinces of the empire were gradually becoming more and more violent.
Previously, due to the focus on foreign colonial expansion and the purge of domestic officials, the severe crackdown and restraint on these small Karami in society were relaxed, resulting in the proliferation of gangs and the like.
Under the obscenity of the gangsters of the Four Seas, most of the stall owners who do business in the night market are unwilling to have more rights and wrongs, and choose to spend money to eliminate disasters, and they have paid the pumping money.
A group of people arrogantly came to the vicinity of the teahouse, and happened to see a father and daughter coming out of the teahouse, the old man walked in front with a huqin, and behind him was a girl singer who met this group of villains with a discolored face, and hid behind the old man in a panic.
But it was too late, and this group of guys from the Four Seas Gang had already set their eyes on the flowery and tender girl singer, with a malicious glint in their eyes, and they surrounded them with a "hula".
This fair-eyed girl singer is about fifteen or sixteen years old, fair-skinned, with a delicate figure, wearing a floral gown and light-colored trousers, revealing a full youthful atmosphere, which is extremely attractive.
The sturdy man at the head looked at the girl greedily, stepped forward and said frivolously; "Why did this little sister fall into a teahouse to sing? If you don't follow Brother Rong in the future, you will be Brother Rong's third aunt's wife, eating fragrant and drinking spicy food, wouldn't it be beautiful bubbling? ”
"Ah...... I don't know you, don't come here! The girl screamed in fright.
The old man with the piano hurriedly protected the girl behind him, bent down and said with a smiling face; "This master, the little old man's father and daughter's family has suffered a tragic change, and he has no choice but to come out to make a living. We are a pure white family, and we don't sell our bodies, so please give this man a convenience. ”
"Yo he...... Where did an old coffin pop up, daring to stop the master's interest, he didn't die fast enough or what's wrong? The face of the gang leader called Brother Rong changed sharply, and when he opened his mouth, there was a series of foul language, he looked the old man who was holding the piano up and down, and couldn't help but sneer;
"Huh...... I ran to the teahouse to sing. Who do you know about doing business on my Four Seas Gang territory? Who did you say hello to, did you pay the money? I think you're trying to break the rules, I'm ......."
As he spoke, Brother Rong rolled up his sleeves and wanted to come up and move.
was just grabbed by Dr. Cha, who was welcoming the guest, and said eagerly; "Brother Rong, please wait a moment, I'm afraid this is a misunderstanding. The father and daughter really want to sing music in our teahouse and make a living, but the shopkeeper can't pester, so don't let them bring the piano over and sing two small tunes to listen, it hasn't opened yet, just try a song. ”
"You open it for me, what's the matter with you here?" Brother Rong glanced at the girl again, and the nameless lust in his heart rose with a "bang", and he pushed Dr. Tea away without giving face, and shouted in a threatening tone;
"I warn you, boy, don't make trouble for your shopkeeper, can you get involved in the street affairs? Get out of the way!
Hundreds of brothers from my Sihai Gang begged for a living on the streets, all relying on the help of neighbors, relying on the loyalty and righteousness of the second master, and relying on the rules.
I can't care about this old coffin, why don't you do business without saying hello, it's not okay to break the rules.
Either you should take out 50 yuan for tea and put 10 tables and 8 tables of wine to let the brothers dissipate their anger, or ......"
Brother Rong looked at the girl behind the old man holding the piano and laughed evilly, and said with a bad mouth; "If you can't pay the money, then ask this girl to come with us first, and let the old coffin go back to raise money to redeem herself, what are you still looking at? Bring someone back for me. ”
The gang leader gave the order, and the other thugs laughed and rushed forward to rob the people.
The old man Huqin was anxious when he saw this situation, he knew that where would it be good for the girl to enter the gangster's den? Hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.
The poor old man with the piano was clumsy, and in the chaos he was overthrown to the ground, and the piano was broken, and he was kicked a few times on his body, and a mouthful of old blood spit out.
"It's too much, you all stop."
At this time
A resolute-looking middle-aged man walked from the crowd, he looked well-dressed, looking at the chaotic robbery situation in front of him, the anger in his eyes could not be suppressed and reprimanded;
"You guys are so disrespectful, the Four Seas Gang keeps saying loyalty, righteousness and filial piety, what is the difference between what you do and bandits and villains?
In front of everyone's eyes, you robbed the people's daughters, your evil deeds are notorious, and you dare to ignore the laws of the Tang Dynasty as nothing, who gave you the guts?
I used to insult the Indians, and no one cared about you.
Later, they bullied the white residents, and still no one cared about you.
Now the Four Seas Gang is becoming more and more rampant, openly bullying their own compatriots, as the so-called don't take the evil as a small thing, the ancients are honest and do not deceive me!
Those of you onlookers ask yourself; It's none of your business, hang high, when such a blatant bullying thing happens to you, who will speak for you?
Dr. Tea, go call the police. ”
"Hey, I'll be right back." Dr. Tea responded smartly, and disappeared into the crowd.
Brother Rong and the others were shocked by the middle-aged man inside, and their faces became extremely ugly, and what they came out to ask for was a face, so he said threateningly; "Boss Qin, our well water does not interfere with river water, I know that you have old friends with some uncles, and it is not difficult to ...... for you today."
"Phew...... I'm ashamed to be in the company of yours, and those bastard uncles of yours will start cutting their robes and breaking their righteousness today, and they will never get along with each other from now on. ”
"Good...... Good...... Boss Qin is mighty. ”
"Boss Qin is a gentleman, our neighbors support you!"
Boss Qin's sonorous and powerful answer won the unanimous applause of the surrounding neighbors, making it as lively as singing on the stage.
Boss Qin of the teahouse had to make a group with both hands in fists, and said again and again; "Chen Meng's fathers and fellow villagers love him, Qin is not talented, and he was also born and died under the emperor in the past, and fought on the battlefield, which is the glory of Qin's life. I can't tolerate these unscrupulous juniors to oppress my fellow clansmen, and I will never be in the company of those old bastards who act absurdly and discredit the glory of my Tang Empire. ”
"That's a good wow, you guys are all up to you."
"Our men on the plateau have no cowardice, and they must not discredit the glory of the empire."
"The ...... who beat him"
The neighbors responded enthusiastically. A large number of bloody men rushed over, pointing at Brother Rong, more than 10 strong men, and shouted; "Master Qin, if you send a word, break your arm or leg, we have long seen that these guys are not pleasing to the eye, but it is not rare to worry about them."
Many neighbors directly showed the revolver short gun stuck in their waists, and some stall owners took out their spears from below, which frightened Brother Rong's group and their faces turned white, and they hurriedly shouted; "Hey, hey, hey...... I warn you not to mess around! My dad is a veteran......"
"! If you don't mention this, it's just a smear on the face of our retired soldiers, and give me a hard beating, as long as you don't kill you, and you will hand it over to the police later. "As soon as Boss Qin heard the words of Brother Rong and the others, his face turned red with anger, and he pointed at them with trembling fingers and said;" Hit, hit me hard! ”
in an instant
Dozens of people gathered around to punch and kick the more than 10 spectators of the Sihai Gang, and the "crackling" was very lively, and the fists and fists attracted a lot of applause.
In this rugged city on the Colorado Plateau, who doesn't have two guns?
The reason why I tolerate it on weekdays is just because of the Chinese philosophy of "more things are better than less", they are all people with families and mouths, and no one wants to step on the mud.
Once the blood of the people is aroused, it will be difficult for the gangs and gangs to do it, and they will all have to be beaten and bruised and swollen and embarrassed.
Seeing the drastic change in the situation below the teahouse, the solidified atmosphere on the private room on the second floor finally loosened, and Richard's face looked much better, which made Viscount Yao Guangyi and Colonel Zheng Yong finally able to take a breath, as if a drowning person had surfaced.
"Hmph, it's not over......"
Emperor Richard dropped this sentence with a cold face, stood up with his sleeves brushed up, and walked outside with an unhappy expression.
Viscount Yao Guangyi hurriedly followed behind, and Colonel Zheng Yong took a few steps ahead of him, and the three of them walked out together.
