Chapter 17: Master Zhang of the Cao Gang
Chapter 17: Mr. Zhang Si of the Cao Gang
Arms dealer?
Miss Yong?
Hong Zhiyou immediately became interested.
The last time I chatted with Anderson, he mentioned that his boss, Colonel Felson, felt that being a soldier had little financial prospects.
He was preparing to retire and join forces with a group of old subordinates to set up an arms company in North America to make a fortune.
Anderson is very likely to be the person in charge here.
In other words, if the whole country is not booming, Hong Zhiyou still has three years of golden period to make money.
If you catch this wave of wealth, you might just take off on the spot.
The Yong family was a famous family during the Beiyang period, but as the era came to an end, they were looted by the Japanese invaders and have now fallen into decline.
Of course, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
The Yong family is still not to be underestimated in Jinhai, otherwise Yang Wenquan of the 94th Army would not have pursued the third daughter of the Yong family so hard, leading to the subsequent concubine incident.
This is an opportunity.
"Captain Ma, my Zhang family hasn't even gotten past this hurdle yet, and now we're going to provoke another great god. Even if I'm a nine-lived cat demon, I'm not worthy of death." Hong Zhiyou waved his hand to refuse.
"How about you look for Lao Yu?"
"he?
"Who knows where he's looking for prostitutes now." Ma Kui sneered.
“Brother, I only trust you in this station.
"Aren't you some cannon...king? Have a romance with Yong Manzhu and see who she hooks up with.
"I'll apply for the first prize for you later."
Magui said.
"Is the third young lady pretty?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
"Of course." Magui took out a photo from his pocket.
Yong Manzhu is indeed a little beauty with a good temperament.
"Do you have money?" Hong Zhiyou asked again.
"money?"
Magui was stunned.
After a while, he found a handful of worthless French currency and three silver dollars on his body.
Seeing Hong Zhiyou’s mouth twisted.
Ma Kui scratched his head and smiled, "Brother, this way I will give you all my salary next month."
“Forget it, everyone in the station knows that your salary will be paid until next year.
"gone!"
Hong Zhiyou laughed, stood up and left.
If he wanted to make friends with the Yong family, he didn't need to do tasks for poor guy Ma Kui.
"Hey, bro..."
Ma Kui wanted to persuade him, but Hong Zhiyou had already walked out.
……
With nothing to do, he went to the training warehouse.
I practiced my shooting skills and physical fitness for a while.
When it was getting dark, I went to the small house on Hengshan Street and checked the funds on hand.
A lot of kickbacks were made these times.
He now has more than 3,000 US dollars, more than 200 oceans, and eight gold bars, making him a real millionaire.
It's eight o'clock.
He put a grenade on his waist, put on makeup, and quietly rushed to No. 36, Lane 2.
The old house was dilapidated and gloomy, making it a perfect place for the meeting.
When Hong Zhiyou arrived, Xie Ruolin was smoking.
"Secretary Hong, you, you are finally here.
"The rats in this damn place are bigger than cats. If you don't come, I'll run away." Xie Ruolin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him.
“It’s better to stay hidden.
"Long story short, you sold this information to Ma Kui."
Hong Zhiyou took out a note and handed it to him.
Xie Ruolin used the flashlight to take a look and frowned:
"Brother, where did you get this information?"
“Old Xie, are you doing this on your first day?
"this is yours."
Hong Zhi counted five ten-dollar bills.
“U.S. dollar bills… I, I like them.
“But I can’t accept it, it will ruin my job.
"When doing business, you need integrity."
Xie Ruolin shook his head and laughed dryly.
"Integrity is worthless in the face of money." Hong Zhiyou added another fifty dollars.
“Don’t worry, Ma Kui can’t catch that guy.
"Without evidence, you've earned this money in vain," Hong Zhiyou said again.
"No one will be killed, I hope? I'm good friends with your Captain Ma." Xie Ruolin asked.
“That’s not something you need to think about.
“All you have to know is that Makuei is poor.
"A poor man has no value to a businessman.
“Unless you want to do charity.
"You and I are the same kind of people, understand?"
Hong Zhiyou sneered and stuffed the banknotes into his shirt pocket.
“Understand…I understand.
"Good tricks, bro. I like people like you. Let's get to know each other more in the future."
Xie Ruolin smiled with satisfaction.
As an egoist, he truly loves people like Hong Zhiyou.
“Keep your mouth shut.
"I want to see Ma Kui in action tomorrow night." Hong Zhiyou reminded him. "Don't worry, no one will go against money.
"gone."
Xie Ruolin put his hands in his pockets and walked into the darkness.
Halfway through the walk, he turned around and said:
"Did you really sleep with Qiu?"
"you guess?"
Hong Zhiyou smiled.
"Fuck... you scumbag!"
Xie Ruolin coughed up a mouthful of thick phlegm and gradually walked away.
Hong Zhiyou was not worried that he would betray him.
In Xie Ruolin's opinion, his behavior was at most an internal struggle within Jinhai Station.
Unlike Yu Zecheng who is a big shot in the red, there is no one like Li Ya who would offer a high price to get to the bottom of it.
Hong Zhiyou was not in a hurry to return to the station.
Instead, he took a detour from Shuitun Prison.
During the period, a gendarmerie convoy was seen, and soon a series of gunshots were heard.
That was the execution of traitors.
Someone won't be able to sleep tonight.
……
Cao Gang, Zhang family mansion.
In the luxurious Chinese-style hall, the wine and meat are fragrant.
Mr. Zhang Si, who was sitting at the head of the group, was obese, had a big bald head, a face full of flesh, and a pair of narrow triangular eyes that exuded an aggressive and fierce look.
There are three others.
The person on the left is wearing a long gown, is nearly fifty years old, has foundation on her face, her hair is combed shiny, and she exudes the scent of a woman's makeup.
This person was Yang Wenquan, deputy commander of the 94th Army.
Commander Yang is not good at fighting, but he has a hobby of paying attention to his appearance. He believes that men should be as exquisite as women.
Just like his shirt, it cannot tolerate even a stain.
Powder, hair oil and shoe polish are standard daily necessities.
The other is Luqiao Mountain.
Zhang Shaobai is accompanying him below.
"Qiaoshan, you are late today. Why don't you drink a glass of wine as punishment?" Mr. Zhang Si, the senior, laughed loudly.
"It should."
Lu Qiaoshan raised his glass and drank it all.
Immediately, he proudly made money for himself:
"To be honest, I went to the Security Command to attend a meeting today on behalf of Stationmaster Wu."
"Oh?"
Yang Wenquan held the wine glass to his chest and uttered a surprised sound:
"Today is the meeting of the highest officers. General Fu from Peking has sent a special envoy, and Commander Chen Changjie is personally presiding over the meeting. Only someone of Commander Mou's rank is qualified to attend.
"Brother Lu, aren't you exaggerating?"
The 94th Army has always been at odds with the Jinhai Station, so Yang Wenquan naturally looked down on a dog spy like Lu Qiaoshan.
"Commander Yang is right, I am not qualified.
"This is not a request from Stationmaster Wu." Lu Qiaoshan said with a humbly smile.
"Wu Jingzhong is a wise man. Brother Lu has a bright future ahead of him." Yang Wenquan then raised his glass slightly in his direction.
Lu Qiaoshan quickly raised his glass and drank again: "Qiaoshan is not talented, I hope Chief Yang will take care of me in the future."
“Haha, good thing.
"Brother Qiaoshan is a fellow villager of Chief Zheng Jiemin. Not only can he be the stationmaster of Jinhai Station, but he can also be the chief of Jingling in the near future."
Mr. Zhang raised his glass and laughed.
"Fourth Master, please don't laugh at me. Qiaoshan has ruined his skills because of this grain store incident. I'll have another drink with you." Lu Qiaoshan said.
"Uncle Lu, please don't blame yourself, this is all because of that little secretary.
"It's also my fault that I underestimated this kid, otherwise he would have been drinking tea with the King of Hell by now."
Zhang Shaobai said coldly.
"Fourth Master, is everything going well at the dock recently?" Yang Wenquan asked.
He had a batch of military supplies. As Chiang's direct subordinate, those weapons were all top-quality ones, and he was rushing to transport them out through Mr. Zhang Si's dock.
He didn't care whether it was sold to Bai Chongxi, Li Zongren, or red notes. The most important thing was to get the money.
"Don't worry, Commander Yang. It will only take a few days." said Fourth Master Zhang.
This is too big.
There are many of Long Er's confidants at the dock, and Mr. Zhang Si wants to transfer his own people, so the transportation is a bit slow.
“Better hurry.
"Hmm." Yang Wenquan raised his chin and hummed.
Zhang Shaobai tactfully took out a small box and pushed it in front of Lu Qiaoshan:
"Director Lu, Boss Dai and the Security Command's Inspection Department are keeping a close eye on us right now. If you have any news from Jinhai Station, please let us know."
"I understand." Lu Qiaoshan opened it and took a look.
He was glad to accept the glittering gold bars.
“By the way, the gunshots in the north of the city should be going off.
"Shaobai, call Shuitun Prison and ask if Long Er has been executed?"
After another round of drinking, Mr. Zhang Si recalled this important event.
Although Long Er is the second-in-command of the Cao Gang, he is a loyal man and has a high reputation in the Cao Gang.
As long as this man is not dead, the father and son will not be able to sleep or eat in peace.
"Ok."
Zhang Shaobai got up and made a phone call.
After hanging up the phone, he shouted angrily:
"Father, Long Er ran away!"
