Chapter 330: Internal Conflict in Zhongji
Chapter 330: Internal Conflict in Zhongji
In the front hall of the guild hall, a group of loyal and righteous men were talking in low voices with serious expressions. There were obviously more than a dozen of them, but their voices were as small as those of mosquitoes and flies, as if they were afraid of scaring the birds outside the house.
As Liang Jiacong strode into the hall, several sparrows fluttered up from the eaves and brackets.
The three red sticks from Kwai Chung District, "Shiye Qiu", Kwun Tong District, "Yezai", and Kowloon City, "Chuishui", all hurried forward.
The Yau Ma Tei Red Stick "Flash" followed behind Leung Ka Chung and nodded to his four-digit uncle after entering the door.
Liang Jiacong hurriedly led a group of people to a table in the hall and sat them down. Before the hot tea was served, he got straight to the point and said, "Shenxiantang has personally sent a message that the police will conduct a strict crackdown on drugs recently. The 'doctor' in Lantian has been targeted by the police."
Master Qiu's face changed slightly, and he cursed loudly: "Damn, the police have a satellite in the sky!"
"You got wind of it so quickly. You're really born in the Year of the Dog."
Chuishui looked cautious and advised in a serious tone: "If Shenxiantang leads it, it must be right, wild boy, stop it."
Ye Zai was skinny, with high cheekbones, small eyes and thin eyebrows, and dry and spotty skin. He responded angrily, "Stop, stop, stop! My brothers will go hungry!"
It was different from the peaceful and relaxed atmosphere at the Zhongyixin tea party.
The temporary meeting held by the Zhongyi group in Tuodi was full of tension.
One reason - the Zhongyi Xin had already declined for decades, but in the late 1960s, the Zhongyi Group was still one of the four major brands in Hong Kong and the largest Chaoshan Gang.
Its strength is on par with the four major social organizations, and it has a tyrant like "跛豪" in charge.
Lao Zhong of the same period was able to take root in Causeway Bay and develop two branches in Tseung Kwan O and Yau Ma Tei thanks to the support of Yi Qun.
Although the fat cats of that era were all very prominent, during the heyday of the Chaozhou Gang, they did not have the prestige that they have today.
"Jing Zhongyi" and "Yiqun" are more like a cycle of fortune. One changed its name to Zhongyitang and became the big brother of Chaozhou Gang, while the other became a small one and changed its name to Zhongyiqun, with a nickname called "Xizhong".
This nickname made many Zhazhi people in the Zhongyi group unhappy.
Because most of the current members of the Zhongyi Group had already joined the society during the Bo Hao era.
They have experienced the most glorious and powerful years of Yi Qun. They are proud of being brothers of "Yi Qun" and they miss that time very much.
Although they were just little brothers at the time and were not even eligible to be expelled by the police, they joined Yiqun because of its reputation at the time.
Many people are waiting for an opportunity.
Yiqun’s chance to rise again.
The Yiqunza staff present here all know very well that the reason why "Doctor" can get the goods from the Golden Triangle has a lot to do with Yezai.
Liang Jiacong picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and asked, "If we earn less, will the brothers starve to death? I really don't like to hear this."
"Are you scolding me for being incompetent and unable to support my brothers and sisters, or are you the one who ate all the money by yourself?"
"Don't you want to leave some for the brothers down there?"
Liang Jiacong suddenly started swearing and pointed at Yezai's nose.
The wild boys were all shocked and looked embarrassed, not daring to argue.
Master Qiu appeared to smooth things over and said, "Wild boy, Grandpa is doing this for your own good. He sent people to conduct a drug raid. A batch of goods was seized and one of our brothers was implicated."
“The loss is greater than the loss in profit.”
Flash said coldly: "The leader has told you what to do. If you don't do it, I won't teach you even if I teach you!"
Yezai's face turned red after being scolded.
Liang Jiacong slowed down his tone, appealed to his emotions, and said slowly: "Wild boy, as the leader, I have never cared about the account matters."
"It's because I know it's not easy for brothers to go out and do this."
"Don't do anything that's obviously risky. If someone dares to go against me, I won't let him off easily!"
Ye Zi held his breath and said impatiently: "I know, Grandpa, it's okay, I'll leave first."
"Where to?" Flash called out.
Ye Zi stood up, glared at him, and said hatefully: "Go and inform the brothers to stop, Brother Flash!"
The situation within the Loyalty Group is much more turbulent than within the Loyalty Trust.
Because, the brothers of Zhongyi Xin can accept being inferior to others and keep their heads down and follow Lao Zhong, but many brothers in the Zhongyi group cannot.
It seems that people who have become rich overnight find it difficult to concentrate on working in a factory.
People who have been leaders in government agencies would feel ashamed to go into business.
The most difficult hurdle in the world is the one in your heart.
Master Qiu hesitated, then stood up and said with a flattering smile: "Grandpa, I have something to do, so I'll go first."
"Go."
Liang Jiacong knew that the business in Kwai Chung was not profitable, so lawyer Qiu worked part-time for Yezai.
Got to clean up the mess.
The remaining uncles and uncles left one after another after seeing that everything was fine. Only Flash stayed. After everyone left, he whispered a suggestion: "Grandpa, should we send him to keep an eye on the wild boy?"
Liang Jiacong looked deep in his eyes and nodded slowly: "Yes." At this time, Master Qiu was sitting in the BMW, listening to Yezi cursing: "Fuck him, Liang Jiacong, you are relying on Lao Zhong to suppress our own people?"
"He's addicted to being Shenxiantang's lackey. He doesn't look like a grandfather at all. People who don't know him would think he's Shenxiantang's lackey!"
Master Qiu, holding a cigar in his mouth, agreed: "It's really shameful. It has brought shame to Yiqun."
"But it's Brother Ye Zai. Shen Xian Tong has deep connections in the Hong Kong government. He spread the word that there was a drug raid, so it must be true. The 'doctor' might be in trouble."
"Tie it or not, really keep a low profile?"
Ye Zi clenched his fists, his face grim, and said with bared teeth: "There is another batch of goods to be delivered to Hong Kong Island at the end of the month. If you suddenly stop selling, they will be squeezed with the goods on the market in a few days."
"There's no money to be made, Master!"
Although the profit of white powder can be as high as three hundred times, but after deducting the expenses in the transportation process and the labor of carrying the goods, the net profit of unloading the goods at the terminal is about one hundred and fifty times.
It depends on the market supply and whether you are in a hurry to make a move.
The quantity of goods is small and there is no rush to sell them. The net profit can be increased by 200 times. By transporting a batch of goods with a cost of 500,000, you can earn 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
If you act in a hurry, the profit will be compressed to about 100 times, and 50 times will go to buyers who have ways to hedge.
If the police were already investigating, the profits would be cut in half again.
Those who dared to take over the goods at that time were all businessmen with great powers and connections, who specialized in bottom-picking business.
Master Qiu was obviously a little scared, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Yezai, how much goods did you buy?"
Everyone in the society thought that Yezai was just a matchmaker, helping the "doctor" to get connections in the Golden Triangle and then helping to unpack the goods.
Only he knew that Ye Zai and the doctor were partners. They bought the goods from the Golden Triangle together and then each of them took care of their own business.
Because neither Ye Zai nor the doctor had enough capital to be included in Khun Sa’s buyer list.
No matter how short of money he was to buy arms, Khun Sa would always do wholesale business, selling at a minimum of several hundred kilograms.
Based on the cost price of three yuan per gram, one hundred kilograms would require a capital of three hundred thousand.
The cost of opening up a channel is several million, and it is impossible to buy only 100 kilograms of goods. At least a few tons must be ordered and then shipped to Hong Kong Island in batches.
The doctor was the first to buy goods from the Golden Triangle and act as a dealer, so he certainly didn't dare to gamble his entire fortune. He and Ye Zai hit it off immediately and jointly invested in building channels and purchasing goods.
There are not one but two new drug dealers in Hong Kong. One is a long-established company that has returned to its old business, and the other is a new boss who has invested in the company.
Because the two people were dismantling their own products, there was no rhythm in the shipment, causing the price of powder in the market to drop rapidly, and the anti-drug team immediately sensed the trend.
Ye Zi replied in a dull tone, "One ton!"
Master Qiu took a breath, widened his eyes, and growled, "Wild boy, are you fucking crazy? Where does the money come from? How can you eat a whole ton at once?"
Ye Zai cursed: "Tiao, is it so easy to break into the Golden Triangle? Khun Sa's people don't care about face at all. They tied up my people and took them all away and shot them if they couldn't bring in a ton of goods."
"I have mortgaged all my property to Xinji's financial company. If I don't sell the goods quickly, I will become a pauper!"
It may seem ridiculous to become a pauper after selling all your powder, but the world is dangerous and dark.
If the gangsters are not careful, they will still be skinned and have their blood sucked and their flesh eaten.
The connections that Yi Qun had left behind were only enough for them to enter the Golden Triangle safely; whether they could get out safely was another matter.
You know, the Golden Triangle has always been dirty. Khun Sa is in a hurry to pay for military expenses. Unless the payment can be made with arms, it will all be a soft forced sale.
If you don’t pay enough money, you will be shot!
As for whether the buyers have the ability to sell the goods, they don’t care. They only look at the weather in the Golden Triangle. In years with bad weather, they will hoard goods and raise the prices.
To deal with people who have been dealing in white powder for a long time, one must have strong funds and manpower, otherwise, one will not be able to defeat the villains in the Golden Triangle.
Master Qiu was so shocked that his face turned pale. He muttered to himself, "It's over. It's really over."
Ye Zi looked calm and whispered, "Don't worry about Lao Zhong's Shen Xian Tang. He is Lao Zhong's man and doesn't care about us. Marshal Sanshan, he just said it in a nice way."
"If useless Cong dares to stop us, I will be the first to overthrow him and take charge of the situation myself!"
The next day.
All seven of Lao Zhong's gangs received the news and began to discipline their subordinates. The gang's staff patrolled the area and caught any brothers who were secretly selling goods. They were all taken to the warehouse and their limbs were cut off.
It is undoubtedly a pipe dream to expect a club of more than 10,000 people to have everyone behave themselves and not have a single seller. But as long as no one goes to destroy the house, the club is considered clean.
Those little brothers who break the rules will be given light punishment and severe warning and expelled from the mountain gate.
After each hall has finished self-inspection, there will be an inspection by the Criminal Court. If the Criminal Court finds problems the second time, even the hall's interns will be in trouble.
Everyone knew the rules of Brother Tang's work, but Lao Zhong's employees did not expect that three days later, one night on Sai Kung Street, the Zhongyi group was ambushed by knifemen at the door of the gambling den with their red sticks flashing. They were stabbed six times and died tragically on the street.
He was a rising star in the martial arts world a few days ago, but after a few days of losing his glory, he was lying in the hospital morgue.
Anyone who is observant in the martial arts world could see that it was an internal conflict within Zhongji. For a moment, many eyes were focused on Shenxiantang, and many people wanted to see what means Shenxiantang would use to settle the internal conflict.
If the event is not done well enough, the Zhongzi group will surely split up and each will do their own thing in the future. If the Chaozhou group fails to accomplish the feat of unifying their brand, their development pace will slow down a lot, and they will not suddenly become a giant and surpass the four major groups in seven or eight years.
