Chapter 358
Chapter 358 "But you don't respect me. You asked me for help without even saying 'you'."
Gu Zhuxuan choked when he heard this. He was stunned for a moment and then asked in confusion: "The greater the ability, the greater the territory?"
"Otherwise," Zheng Jirong said matter-of-factly: "If it's not territory, then it's responsibility?"
"Hahaha, Gang Leader Zheng is really funny when he talks."
Gu Zhuxuan laughed and continued: "According to the information I got, Gang Leader Zheng should have just returned from abroad a week ago and became the leader of the Ax Gang just two days ago, right?"
"That's right," Zheng Jirong admitted, "It's true that I haven't returned to China for a few days. Why do you think I'm easy to bully as a foreigner?"
"hehe."
Gu Zhuxuan smiled meaningfully, pulled up a chair and sat across from him, "Mr. Zheng, does he know who the four most powerful gangsters in Shanghai are?"
"Aren't they Zhang Wanlin and Lu Yuesheng?" Zheng Jirong said casually: "You want to scare me by mentioning their names?"
Gu Zhuxuan did not answer, but instead said: "Zhang Wanlin was born as a comprador and maintained very good relations with foreigners and senior Chinese in Shanghai. At least half of the shops in the entire French Concession have his shares. Not only does he serve The chairman of the General Federation of Concession Chambers of Commerce and even the Chinese Taxpayer Association."
"Such a person, even the mayor wouldn't dare to mess with him, let alone help him!"
Having said this, he raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Jirong opposite him. Seeing that he was still chewing his cigar and puffing away the smoke without changing his expression, he frowned and continued:
"There is also Lu Yuesheng. Although he is just a junior of the 'Enlightenment' generation in the Qinggang, he is very good at dancing. Many people in Shanghai's political and business circles are his close friends. Relying on this relationship, he opened the only one in the city. A company that specializes in Yaniao tablets. He is the leader in the SH tobacco industry. Almost all the Youth Gang disciples in Songhu are working for him. He has tens of thousands of people under his command, making him the one with the most people among the four big guys!"
Zheng Jirong raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. What Gu Zhuxuan said was right or wrong. He said that there were tens of thousands of Thaksin youths from the Youth Gang in Songhu, but it was said that these tens of thousands of people were eating with Lu Yuesheng.
This is pure nonsense!
The only way to feed so many poor people these days is to start an industry. But in today's market environment, those who are capable of doing industry are either those with a strong background like Bai Xiuzhu, or those like Qin Erye in "Tea House" who firmly believe that "industry saves the country" ], sold his ancestral property and founded a factory.
Lu Yuesheng, a high-end gang leader who sells cigarettes, will never have such a consciousness in his life.
The tens of thousands of youths from the Youth Gang are just names in the gang, and at least 80% of them have never even seen Lu Yueshang.
Of course, Gu Zhuxuan had no idea about his various thoughts. At this time, he continued to introduce the remaining two of the four tycoons.
"Speaking of which, Ding Li, the tycoon, has the most status. If Xu Wenqiang hadn't been assassinated, it would have been impossible for him to take this position. But then again, although he was influenced by Xu Wenqiang, his gang strength was not Not only does he have thousands of followers, but he is also hooked up with the mayor's daughter. If he develops well, he may be like Zhang Wanlin in the future, and he may even be able to hold a position in politics, saying that he is the number one person in Shanghai. , it’s not too much.”
"As for the last one, of course he is Chen Chen, the previous leader of the Ax Gang. Although this guy is a big smoker and does crazy things, his methods are far more ruthless than ordinary people. In order to make money, he often goes beyond the bottom line, let alone smuggling tobacco. Armed with weapons, he could even do things like human trafficking. Although his reputation was a bit poor, the power of the Ax Gang expanded very quickly in his hands. He was the one who made the name of the largest gang in Zhabei. "
"Unfortunately"
Gu Zhuxuan looked at Zheng Jirong and said with deep meaning: "It is said that after Chen Chen's death, there are only a few hundred members of the Ax Gang. Not to mention Shanghai Bund, even in Zhabei, they cannot be the only one. I heard that there are many gangs. I was thinking about eating the Ax Gang and taking the position of the Four Tycoons, but the world of Shanghai has been peaceful for so long, and no one would dare to be the first to break the balance without an excuse."
"Gang Leader Zheng, if you kill Lei Gong and occupy the Sixteenth Shop today, I can guarantee that tomorrow other gangs will surround you and kill you, the Ax Gang, on the grounds of having an old relationship with Lei Gong!"
After he finished speaking, he stared closely at the man opposite him, trying to see a trace of confusion or wavering in his eyes, but he was doomed to be disappointed.
Pah. Pah pah!
Zheng Jirong bit his cigar and clapped his hands and praised: "Well, well, well, Mr. Gu is worthy of being called [Jiangbei Tycoon]. He is really good at persuading people. I was almost persuaded by you."
"oh?"
Gu Zhuxuan frowned when he heard this and said, "Didn't you understand what I said? Killing Lei Gong will only bring harm but no good to your Ax Gang, so why are you so stubborn!"
Seeing that Zheng Jirong didn't say a word, he hesitated for a while and then continued: "Lao Lei has been a friend of mine for many years. Just treat it as a favor for me. I will repay you afterwards, how about that?"
"Hahaha"
Hearing this, Zheng Jirong suddenly couldn't help laughing, "If it were normal, I really wouldn't mind giving you a favor, Gu Zhuxuan, but not today."
"Why?" Gu Zhuxuan asked curiously.
"Because you don't respect me." Zheng Jirong raised the hand holding the cigar, pointed at his face and said solemnly: "You asked me for help here without even saying the word 'you'. From the moment we met until now, you I said the word 'you' fifteen times."
Speaking of this, Zheng Jirong approached him and asked, "Are you asking for help?"
"you"
Gu Zhuxuan, who had been in the world for many years, was speechless. He had thought of many reasons why Zheng Jirong would reject him, but he never expected that the problem would arise with him.
The smile on his face slowly faded, and Gu Zhuxuan said expressionlessly: "It seems that you are not willing to sell me this face."
"Haha," Zheng Jirong sneered, "I can't help it. Who told you to rush up and throw it away yourself?"
After saying that, he turned and looked behind him, "What are you waiting for? Tie Zhu, didn't you see that the conversation collapsed?"
Tie Zhu, who had been staring at Lei Gong, was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. After he nodded heavily, his figure rushed out like a ghost, and his hands turned into eagle claws and went straight to Lei Gong's throat!
"etc!"
call out!
A bamboo chopstick was thrown out like an arrow and inserted into the stone bricks in front of the iron pillar, blocking his steps.
Zheng Jirong flexed his fingers twice and raised his eyes to look at Gu Zhuxuan who had just shouted, "Mr. Gu, do you still want to hear your old friend's last words?"
Gu Zhuxuan looked at Lei Gong who was lying on the ground with a pale face. No one would have thought that just a few minutes ago, his old friend was discussing with him in high spirits how to break into Zhabei and annex the Ax Gang.
"Gang Leader Zheng"
Gu Zhuxuan cupped his hands and bowed his head to Zheng Jirong and said, "Please be noble this time and let Mr. Lei go. I will thank you deeply in the future."
"Um"
Zheng Jirong nodded, "It sounds much more pleasant this time. Okay, in that case, I'll save the face you gave me this time for next time!"
After the words fell, before the old guy could react, he shouted to Tie Zhu, who had been paying attention here: "Take your revenge!"
"Thank you Brother Rong!"
Tie Zhu raised his lips in excitement, stepped on the ground and rushed to the front of Lei Gong.
After a great battle, the already weak Thunder God had no time to raise his hand to block him. The steel-like eagle claws directly pierced the old guy's throat!
Looking at Lei Gong's increasingly gray eyes, Tie Zhu yelled angrily, pulled out the thing he was holding in his hand, and crushed it into pieces in front of the old guy!
Tsk tsk tsk.
Seeing this scene, Zheng Jirong couldn't help but smack his mouth twice. It seems that the hatred between Tiezhu and this Thunder Lord is really not small. It's not just killing him, he even had to break off one of his cervical vertebrae and crush it. .
I guess Lei Gong must be in a lot of pain.
"Mr. Gu?"
Zheng Jirong looked at Gu Zhuxuan, who was pale, and said with a smile: "Don't say that I, Zheng Jirong, am too unkind. I want Thunder Lord's territory. You can take this body back. I might as well tell you that those who offend me in Guanxi are not Being filled in buckets and reclaimed from the sea is like being chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs. You can count the number of people who can be safely buried in the ground on one hand, which is considered as giving you face."
Gu Zhuxuan closed his eyes slightly, unable to bear to look at the body of his old friend on the ground.
What the heck, the whole neck was torn in half, can this be considered a safe burial?
However, town Guanxi? ? ?
Gu Zhuxuan looked at Zheng Jirong and said calmly: "It seems that Gang Leader Zheng has a good reputation overseas."
"Hahaha, I'm not talented, I'm just an incense owner of Hongmen in Texas, America!"
As the saying goes, when you go out, your identity is given by yourself. When someone asks, Zheng Jirong doesn't mind raising the banner of Hongmen.
Anyway, these days, almost all the gang members who know about the situation of Wuzhou Hongmen Hall are in Guangdong and Guangxi. He doesn't believe that an old man from the Qing Gang can reveal his identity.
"Hongmen Xiangzhu?!"
Gu Zhuxuan was shocked and stood up from his chair. He had thought that Zheng Jirong's identity abroad was not simple, but he did not expect that this kid turned out to be from the Wuzhou Hongmen Hall.
Theoretically speaking, in fact, their Qing Gang also came from Hongmen.
During the Manqing period, there were hundreds of thousands of Hongmen people all over the country.
Later, one branch of the Hongmen gang was renamed the Red Gang, and one branch was renamed the Qing Gang, also known as the Qing Gang and Anqing Gang. As the name suggests, unlike Hongmen when the Qing Dynasty was founded and vowed to fight against the Qing Dynasty, the original intention of the Qing Gang was to protect the Qing Dynasty. (Qing Tongqing)
In the early days, the Green and Red Gangs were incompatible with each other. In the early years of the Republic of China, there was no Manqing, and the Green and Red gangs no longer had hostility, and there was a sense of disconnected friendship.
This guy is actually from Wuzhou Hongmen
Thinking of this, Gu Zhu smiled tentatively and said: "It seems that the overseas Hongmen Hall has also fallen. Mr. Zheng can become the incense master at such a young age. Could it be that there are elders leading the way and taking the back door?"
"joke!"
Zheng Jirong pointed at him and shouted: "I am the Texas incense owner who spent thousands of dollars to kiss Mr. Situ a year ago! In terms of seniority, I am older than you! You should kneel down when you see me!"
"you you."
Gu Zhuxuan's face suddenly turned red with anger. Apart from the senior members of the Qing Gang, he was the highest-ranking person in the Qing Gang. Zheng Jirong actually asked him to kneel down? !
"but."
Zheng Jirong turned around and smiled again: "I don't care about seniority, so I won't use it this time, but I have to remind you."
"Although Wuzhou Hongmen is headquartered in San Francisco, it is not comparable to you Green Gang gangsters. Next time you let me hear you being disrespectful to Hongmen, I will personally tie you up and take you to San Francisco to plead guilty to Mr. Situ!"
"."
Gu Zhuxuan couldn't help but curse secretly when he heard this. He clearly just looks down on you. When had he ever disrespected Hongmen? !
After taking a deep breath and calming down his turbulent mood, he said with a livid face: "In that case, I won't bother you anymore. The mountains will remain green and the water will flow forever. I'll say goodbye!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the teahouse, walking so fast that he seemed not to want to stay here any longer.
But before he had even taken two steps, the person behind him stopped him again.
"etc!"
Zheng Jirong turned to look at him, and pointed at Gu Zhuxuan, who looked impatient, "Take your old friend away quickly. He's bleeding. It's disgusting to see him!"
"."
After a while, the teahouse hall, which was originally full of corpses, was cleaned up and looked brand new. Zheng Jirong sat on the tea table in the center, holding a cup of freshly brewed tea and said loudly to the people at the table: "Come on, today we will use the axe." The gang won a great victory in their first operation, so I would like to propose a toast to you all with tea instead of wine."
After hearing this, Zhou Xingzu, Peng Yixing and others immediately stood up from the bench and drank down the tea cups in one gulp.
"Okay, don't be so formal, just sit down."
Zheng Jirong waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and then asked Peanut, "Peanut, do you know where Lei Gong's house is?"
"Of course I know. This old bastard keeps a dozen women at home. In order to prevent them from cheating on her, he sent dozens of younger men to guard the house. They are easy to recognize."
"That's good. You will lead the way later and we will ransack his house!"
"Searching the house?"
After Hua Mi nodded his head clearly, he asked curiously: "Brother Rong, speaking of which, shouldn't we catch the Black Crow and the Old Snake now? Now that Lei Gong Beisha and the Mountain Boar are dead, only the Black Tiger Gang is left. Shouldn’t these two guys exterminate the roots?”
"Don't worry, if nothing happens."
Zheng Jirong raised his hand and looked at his watch, "Dapeng should have killed them by now."
Before coming to the teahouse to carry out the thunder, Zheng Jirong specifically asked Dapeng to act alone to assassinate Black Crow and Old Snake in advance. With this kid's ability to tear apart Japs with his own hands, it would be easy to assassinate a gambler and a pervert.
After drinking tea, Zheng Jirong and others arrived at Lei Gong's old house under the guidance of Hua Mi.
He is also a gangster, but unlike the garden mansion where Ding Li lives, Lei Gong's home is just a small villa with an ordinary appearance. Not to mention the garden, even the walls of the villa have fallen off and are in disgrace.
Zheng Jirong looked around the villa and asked Hua Mi, "Didn't you say there are dozens of thugs guarding this place all day long? Where are the people?"
Hua Mi looked at the deserted street in front of the gate, frowned and said, "Brother Rong, wait a minute. They must have eaten something wrong and had diarrhea. If nothing else, they will be here soon."
"Is your kid sick? Wouldn't it be better if they weren't here? Why should we wait for them to come over?"
"Then Brother Rong, why are you asking me?"
"."
Zheng Jirong took a deep breath and resisted the desire to slap this boy. He kicked open the iron door and led a group of people into the old house.
