Chapter 348: Killings in One Night
Chapter 348: Killings in One Night
In the Qingbang incense hall, Zhang Xiaolin sat at the head seat, drinking tea.
Zhang Xiaolin is a famous tycoon in the Shanghai Stock Exchange. He has extremely huge influence and is known as one of the three tycoons in the Shanghai Stock Exchange together with Boss Du and Boss Huang.
In July of the 26th year of the Republic of China, Shanghai fell. Mr. Du rejected the Japanese invitation and went to Hong Kong Island for temporary refuge.
The Shanghai stock market was handed over to his subordinates to manage, but in less than two years, Gao Xinbao and Rui Qingrong were killed one after another by Chen Yang.
Now the only ones who can fight are Ye Zhuoshan and Gu Jiatang.
Since Zhang Xiaolin defected to the Japanese, he not only became the chairman of Zhejiang Province, but also had a seat in the new government.
Compared to Boss Huang who retired early, he is much more arrogant.
When something big happened in the Qing Gang, naturally someone was needed to take charge of the situation. He was the person who was placed with high hopes.
In addition to Zhang Xiaolin, another big boss is Zhang Deqin.
Zhang Deqin, who studied in the United States, was the newly appointed manager of the Insurance Department of the Central Trust Company of the National Government, the executive supervisor of the China Industrial Association, and the executive director of the Shanghai Municipal Government.
In addition to these identities, Zhang Deqin has another identity in Shanghai. He is a big gangster of the "Tong" generation in the Green Gang. Some time ago, he helped Li Qun of No. 76 to capture Yin Maoxuan, the number one killer of the Military Control Commission.
Compared with Zhang Xiaolin, Zhang Deqin can also be regarded as a local lord. Originally, he was not well-known and had always been suppressed by Boss Ji Yunqing.
After Boss Ji died, his children gave up their family business in Shanghai and returned home with his coffin. Zhang Deqin took advantage of the situation and swallowed up a lot of Boss Ji's former territories, becoming a top figure overnight.
The current Shanghai Stock Exchange is almost dominated by Zhang Xiaolin, Zhang Deqin and his gang.
As for the uncles above, there are also some, such as Jin Dayou and Chen Daqing of the Da generation, Lin Fusheng and Lin Shaorong of the Tong generation.
The strength of these people is not that great, they can only guard their own little piece of land.
If the Military Control Commission hadn't come up with a strategy to fish in troubled waters this time, these old guys would have almost been forgotten.
The clock pointed to seven o'clock, but Zhang Deqin, Jin Dayou and others had not appeared yet. Zhang Xiaolin couldn't help but have a bad feeling.
"Dong dong dong." A burst of hurried footsteps sounded.
"Oh no, oh no, something big has happened." Green Gang disciple Dong Dahu ran into the incense hall covered in blood.
"Boss Zhang, something bad has happened. Our boss has been ambushed on Weihai Road. Please go and save him."
What? Zhang Xiaolin was suddenly startled.
"Who did it? How could Zhang Deqin be so careless?"
"The boss was ambushed." Dong Dahu said weakly, "We walked to the vicinity of Weihai Road, and suddenly a group of men in black rushed out. They were very ruthless. Judging from their movements, they seemed to be Japanese."
"Japanese?" Zhang Xiaolin hesitated.
Although he had long since surrendered to the Japanese, he was still a big brother in the Green Gang. Dong Dahu's boss was Zhang Deqin. If he died unclearly, the Green Gang would lose all face.
But he couldn't understand why the Japanese would turn around and want to kill Zhang Deqin, as Zhang Deqin was working for the Japanese.
"Boss Zhang, something bad has happened." As soon as Dong Dahu's voice fell, a middle-aged man covered in blood rushed in.
"Boss Jin and Boss Chen were also ambushed on their way here." The middle-aged man ran to Zhang Xiaolin and said in horror, "On Baita Road, the leader was Nalan Yuanji, and there was a group of Japanese."
"Japanese again?" Zhang Xiaolin's expression suddenly changed.
Zhang Deqin, Jin Dayou, and Chen Daqing are all important figures in the Green Gang.
It is understandable that the Japanese would target Jin Dayou, Chen Daqing and Zhang Xiaolin. These two old guys, like Boss Du, are unwilling to cooperate with them.
But Zhang Deqin was a member of the new government and had always had a good relationship with the Japanese. Why did they want to kill Zhang Deqin?
Could it be that the Japanese wanted to use this incident to eradicate the entire Green Gang?
Zhang Xiaolin suddenly felt caught in a dilemma. If he didn't take action, after killing Zhang Deqin, he would most likely be the next one.
But if he took action and offended the Japanese, he would not be in a good situation.
"Boss Zhang, we can't just sit there and wait for death. You have to make a decision." At this time, a group of Qing Gang disciples in the incense hall also surrounded him angrily after hearing the news.
"People have come to your door, and you are still afraid of the wolf in front and the tiger behind." Gu Jiatang, the head of Boss Du, said in a muffled voice: "Boss Zhang, if you don't dare to do it, let us do it."
"Some of my men are willing to die. I don't believe this. The remnants of the Qing dynasty can still ride on my head and shit on it."
"If you are my brother, come with me to beat them."
As he spoke, Gu Jiatang rushed out of the incense hall with a group of men. Before Zhang Xiaolin could say anything, Ye Zhuoshan also left the incense hall with a group of people.
When the people in the incense hall saw someone taking the lead, they began to rub their hands, filled with righteous indignation, and gathered people to prepare for the big fight.
"There seems to be something wrong about this matter." Zhang Xiaolin felt that this matter was not that simple, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
...
French Concession, Xilin South Road, Chen Mansion.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Yang and Haley sat in the living room listening to music and sipping coffee.
"Ding-ling-ling." The phone rang and the housekeeper Aunt Lan immediately picked up the phone.
"Sir, this is for you." Aunt Lan handed the microphone to Chen Yang.
"Hello, this is Chen Yang." Chen Yang answered the phone.
"What? Is it such a big deal?" It was the voice of No. 76 Li Qun on the other end of the phone.
Li Qun briefly explained the situation. The deaths of Zhang Deqin, Jin Dayou and Chen Daqing completely ignited the entire Shanghai gang dispute.
Right now, the Qing Gang has mobilized thousands of disciples to attack the gathering place of the Qing dynasty's descendants, and both sides are blood-thirsty.
The police station and the gendarmerie were dispatched.
"Director Li, please take your people to the scene, I'll be there soon." Such a big thing happened, and Chen Yang, as No. 76's direct superior, could not turn a blind eye to it.
After saying hello to Haley, Chen Yang picked up his clothes and hurried out.
After a while, the driver of Meihualou drove his car to the door of Chen Mansion.
Chen Yang got into the car, gave an address, closed his eyes slightly, and kept thinking in his mind that it seemed that he was not the only one who took action this time.
He knew very well that it was not the Japanese who killed Zhang Deqin, but people from the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station, and he was the one who gave the order.
This bastard actually killed Yin Maoxuan, who was a famous killer of the Military Control Commission. How could the Military Control Commission not take revenge?
Moreover, killing him would quickly lead to a fight between the two gangs and completely disrupt the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
But it was definitely not him who sent people to kill Jin Dayou and Chen Daqing.
The Military Intelligence Bureau would not kill two uncle-generation leaders of the Green Gang for no reason. Killing them would not benefit the Military Intelligence Bureau.
On the contrary, these two were centrists who were unwilling to work for the Japanese. Could it be that the Japanese were taking advantage of the situation and using this opportunity to kill a group of centrists to establish their authority?
I rushed to finish it before twelve o'clock and will continue tomorrow.
