20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 339 Innovation·Hidden Danger

Jiang Lianheng finished speaking. Everyone has different reactions to how long it will take to realize the grand blueprint he has conceived for the Jiang family, and even whether it can be realized.

Zhang Zhengdong looked calm, even feeling like he was staying out of the situation.

Dongfeng prefers to regard himself as a pure executor, never asking too much, never thinking too much, whatever he is asked to do, he does it, that's all. Of course, there is another possibility - he hasn't reacted at all.

Wang Zhengnan was a little uneasy. If the Jiang family wanted to become an orderly family, it would inevitably have to collide with other forces.

Nanfeng has been to Yingkou and knows how dangerous it is to grab food on other people's ground.

Li Zhengxi is just the opposite of Nanfeng. Frankly speaking, he even enjoys the process of fighting with outsiders.

The west wind is strong in nature and takes a dim view of life and death, so it is easy to fight for a breath.

Although Zhao Zhengbei is not here, the brothers can probably guess what this guy will say - "Brother Dao, Guanwai is too small, we have to be the boss of the country!"

Except for Si Fengkou, the others seemed to be hesitant.

Zhao Guoyan was born in Guaizixing, and he has known the principles of "words must be called three" and "green mountains beyond the mountains and towers beyond the tower" since he was a child.

Liu Yansheng knew very well that this was the biggest difference between gangs and gangsters. If the Jiang family wanted to go further, they could not just rely on favors and interests to maintain their relationship, but had to formulate rules.

Because of this, even if many outsiders had heard of Jiang Lianheng, they only regarded him as the son of "Owl" and did not fully recognize his abilities.

"Yansheng, what do you mean by not speaking? Do you think I can't do it?"

Although he didn't know much about the world outside Guan Guan, he had never heard of "Four Beams and Eight Pillars".

The status of the brothers is too vague.

Jiang Lianheng said: "Yansheng is right, it's time to find some good players."

Without sufficient recruitment means, it will be difficult for the Jiang family to form a larger force.

Liu Yansheng waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, brothers, I don't mean anything against you. If we all gather in Fengtian, it will be enough. But according to Brother Dao, the entire Guanwai is a bit stretched. Even if we join forces vertically and horizontally, we still have to run around, right?"

However, Jiang Lianheng took advantage of the right time, place and people. Just as the revolution was taking place, he fished in troubled waters and took advantage. In a sense, it was actually the continuation of the Zhou family's power.

On the other hand, he also understood that once the rules were established, there would be turmoil within the Jiang family.

Of course, the situations of Zhou Yunfu and Jiang Lianheng are different.

They had all been subordinates of the Zhou family in their early years, so they knew very well that even a ruthless person like Zhou Yunfu, who had been around for most of his life, could only be said to be unmatched in Feng Province.

Liu Yansheng thought about it again and again, and still believed that he could only find an opportunity to discuss this kind of matter with Brother Dao and his sister-in-law alone.

Zhao Guoyan said: "But there are many concessions in Shanghai, and the forces are mixed. At least we only need to keep an eye on the Japanese. Each one has its own strengths and weaknesses!"

Han Xinyuan and Zhong Yushan knew very well that Jiang Lian was unkind and cruel, but these alone seemed not enough.

Liu Yansheng interrupted: "Uh... I was just thinking that Brother Dao has a lot of reliable people now, but not many good ones."

"Then what are you thinking about?" Jiang Lianheng asked.

People are close and distant, and no one is exempt from vulgarity.

Without a clear division of labor, it will be difficult to clearly identify responsibilities and subordinates will not be able to concentrate on one task.

He felt that these words were a bit loud, but he did not feel any timidity because of them. Just like when he followed Chen Wantang, since he worshiped his eldest brother, as long as his eldest brother did not die, he would go through fire and water without any second thoughts.

"Oh, no!" Liu Yansheng came to his senses and said hurriedly, "Brother Dao's plan is of course very good. If we can really make Zun Jiang, the leader of the world outside the pass, the leader of the Jiang family, won't we also follow the rising tide!"

The Jiang family currently does not have a clear structure. Although Jiang Lianheng is the leader who does his part, the others do not have a clear superior-subordinate relationship, a clear division of labor, and insufficient recruitment methods.

As the status becomes higher or lower, the authority becomes larger or smaller, it is inevitable that the brothers will have some complaints.

Han Xinyuan and Zhong Yushan smacked their lips, but they didn't think this could happen.

"That's true." Wang Zhengnan said, "Originally, we closed the door, and there were eight people. But it turned out that Xiaobei was in the martial arts hall, and now he is a soldier again. When this time is over, Lao Zhao and Yan Sheng We still have to go back, so there are only five people left.”

"Indeed." Jiang Lianheng admitted.

But he also knew that the current Jiang family simply did not have this strength.

The absence of superiors and subordinates means that Jiang Lianheng must intervene in everything, and once Brother Dao is absent, everyone will be in chaos.

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Guoyan, Li Zhengxi and others cast questioning glances.

However, when everyone was trying their best to flatter him, his hesitation had already attracted Jiang Lianheng's attention.

However, in Liu Yansheng's view, this has nothing to do with Jiang Lianheng's ability. The problem lies in the current structure of the Jiang family.

After everyone heard this, they calmed down a little.

It is precisely because of the effectiveness of "Owl" that Zhou Yunfu has absolute deterrence.

After all, even the collapse of the imperial court was indispensable without the support of Hongmen, Ge Laohui and other Jianghu cliques.

Hearing this, Liu Yansheng fell into deep thought.

Mr. Zhou was alone and started from scratch, making something out of nothing, which naturally required a lot of twists and turns.

Liu Yansheng continued: "It's a pity that Fengtian is not the city of Shanghai. It is a ten-mile foreign market and several provinces along the river. The shipping in and out are all in one dock. You can occupy that place without moving, just wait for others to come to your door."

"Hiss! Yansheng, what do you mean by this?"

He knows how influential a gang can be.

At the beginning, the seven of them, Dad, were all tough.

Jiang Lianheng looked at the people in front of him. Except for Liu Yansheng and Wang Zhengnan, the others certainly dared to fight. However, the only one who could really be called a tough opponent was Zhao Guoyan, and he was his "defeated general."

Thinking of this, he turned around and asked: "Yansheng, Wen Tingge has been working for a year, what do you think of him?"

Liu Yansheng considered it and said: "It's pretty good. He brought a few people there and cooperated very well with me. He never had any complaints."

Jiang Lianheng thought for a moment and said, "After I finish taking care of the boss, I'll transfer him over and I'll chat with him again."

Liu Yansheng agreed.

At this time, Song's mother walked from the kitchen to the living room and said to Jiang Lianheng, "Master, the meal is ready."

Everyone got up one after another and came to the restaurant. Song Ma went upstairs to call Hu Xiaoyan and Sister Hua, while Xu Ruqing was still eating in the house as usual.

Jiang Ya and Jiang Chengye were also brought downstairs for a rare opportunity to meet their uncles.

Jiang Lianheng had two sons and a daughter, so the brothers naturally said a lot of flattery. Although the two children were very popular, everyone inevitably paid more attention to the young master Jiang Chengye during the conversation.

No mother doesn't like others to praise her child, and Sister Hua is no exception.

However, despite being happy, she was always a little worried, and her eyes couldn't help but glance at Hu Xiaoyan frequently.

……

……

At night, Jiang Lianheng returned to the master bedroom and sat at the tea table for a while.

Hu Xiaoyan hadn't fallen asleep yet. When she heard the noise, she turned over and asked, "Did the boss's affairs go smoothly?"

"It's being done, it's going well." Jiang Lianheng lit a cigarette and said, "By the way, do you still remember Wen Tingge?"

"Remember, what's wrong?"

"I plan to transfer him over to help." Hu Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is this necessary?"

"It's not necessary now." Jiang Lianheng put out his cigarette butts and took off his gown, saying, "But after the boss is done with his work, Guo Yan will go back. The family lacks a good hand, so we can't let him do this all the time. Run?"

Hu Xiaoyan frowned and said: "If you are not one of your own family, it is best not to believe it easily. If it doesn't work, then let Guo Yan come back."

Jiang Lianheng lay down next to his wife and said, "There has to be a process, right? If you really want to be honest, Zhao Guoyan was racing horses for Chen Wantang back then!"

"That's different. Guo Yan was already forced into a corner back then. He could only save his life by fighting with us. Moreover, when we fought with the Bai family later, he was indeed reliable."

"Then why do you trust Lao Yuan?"

Yuan Xinfa showed the door to the Jiang family. This job seemed humble, but it was impossible to leave it to an untrustworthy outsider.

"Because I have met him and chatted with the Yuan family." Hu Xiaoyan replied directly.

In fact, the most important thing is that Yuan Xinfa's wife and children are also in Fengtian.

When Yuan Xinfa's family of three first moved here, they were warmly cared for by their neighbors. Unbeknownst to them, there was actually Hu Xiaoyan's spy among the crowd.

Wen Tingge is too special. Not only does Buddha have no worries when he is alone, but most people can't keep an eye on him at all.

Jiang Lianheng understood his concerns, but he just sighed.

"Yansheng is right, you still need to have a strong opponent. Bei Feng has quite a lot of potential, and his shooting skills are as good as those of my seventh uncle. Why do you have to send him to a martial arts school?"

Although killing someone is not a problem if you have a gun close by, your skill is still very important.

Hu Xiaoyan shook her head and said, "Skills are secondary, loyalty is the most important."

She turned around and continued: "Now the streets are full of protests against the 21 Articles and boycotts of Japanese goods. If you want to take the lead in business, you'd better take advantage of this commotion to get things done quickly and don't leave anything behind."

Jiang Lianheng put his arms behind his head and mumbled in response, seeming sleepy. Just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt a cold feeling in his waist, and Hu Xiaoyan's hand was slowly climbing up.

"Huh? Wife, what do you mean...?"

Hu Xiaoyan turned sideways, blinked in the darkness, and whispered shyly: "I want it."

When Jiang Lianheng heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.

The two of them had been engaged as husband and wife for several years. Hu Xiaoyan had never spoken such harsh words to him, never asked for it, and even often declined when facing Jiang Lianheng.

Now, for the first time in history, his daughter-in-law has "begged" him, so it is of course the man's duty to do so.

But before being invited to the meeting, Jiang Lianheng turned around again and asked with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, do you think you are worried because Xiaohua gave birth to a son for me?"

"No."

"Pack!"

"Not really."

"You can really pretend!"

Jiang Lianheng said in a rare low voice of relief: "Don't think blindly. Even if other women give me ten sons, you will always be the eldest son in this family. I promised you and I will keep my word."

Hu Xiaoyan quickly moved closer to him, her eyes lit up, as if expecting something, and asked: "Why?"

"No need to ask why!" Jiang Lian laughed and said, "I promised to marry you, and my father recognized you as his daughter-in-law, so what other reason is there?"

Hu Xiaoyan's eyes dimmed.

Jiang Lianheng didn't notice anything was wrong. He immediately lifted up the quilt and said with a wicked smile: "Come on!"

"Forget it, I don't want it anymore."

"Tsk! Are you sick? You've been flirting with others, and you've stopped doing it?"

"I don't want to, it's boring."

"Fart! You got on the pirate ship and you still want to run away?"

While the young couple was having a fight on the bed, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the side of the bed.

Jiang Lian turned his head and saw his daughter Jiang Ya sitting in the crib, looking at the two of them with a "haha" smile.

This time it was completely out of the question.

Jiang Lianheng suddenly lost all sleep. He simply got up and walked to the tea table and lit another cigarette.

Hu Xiaoyan picked up her daughter and patted and coaxed her. After struggling for a long time, the little girl never fell asleep again.

Jiang Lianheng was sitting by the window, overlooking the street scene outside. Suddenly, he saw a group of officers and soldiers patrolling the road in the distance.

He remembered that there were rumors that because of the 21 Articles, the Japanese had sent troops to suppress the border, and martial law might be imposed again in the provincial capital of Fengtian.

"Will there be a war?" Jiang Lianheng asked to himself.

These words reminded Hu Xiaoyan, and she reminded with some worry: "Xiaodao, Beifeng doesn't know where he has been transferred now. We also have relations in the military camp. You can take the time to walk around and ask someone to help you. Don't fight. Get up and really send him to the front line."

"Who told you to force him to go to the martial arts hall!" Jiang Lianheng put out his cigarette butt and returned to the bed again, "Okay, I'll ask someone to inquire about it in the next two days."

……

……

"Ah!"

At this moment, outside the gate of General Fengtian's office.

Zhao Zhengbei resisted the gun on one shoulder, sneezed suddenly, and muttered in a low voice: "Who the hell doesn't sleep at midnight and keeps talking about me behind my back!"

It seems that Jiang Lianheng and Hu Xiaoyan's worries are a bit unnecessary.

Zhang Laogao values ​​​​the students in the martial arts hall very much and refuses to easily send them to the front line to serve as cannon fodder with the illiterate soldiers. Most of the students have been incorporated into the reserve force.

Zhao Zhengbei performed too well in the shooting training of the technical department, so he was assigned to Commander Zhang's guard.

It was getting very late, but the general's office was still brightly lit, the officers of all levels coming and going, and the phones ringing frequently in the government office all showed that the current situation was very tense.

Unfortunately, Zhao Zhengbei is currently standing at the gate with only an anti-gun, making it difficult to hear what is going on inside.

Even so, he could still hear fragments of words intermittently.

That was the voice of Zhang Laogao, always cursing, sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low-pitched.

"His grandma has legs! If all twenty-one items are signed, will there still be a place for me, Lao Zhang, in Fengtian?"

"...Tell the president that it's not easy outside the border. Hurry up and give him some help... How many people under my command are still trying to fight against the Japanese with chicken feathers?"

"Those gangsters are backed by the Japanese... No one can even try to drive me out of Fengtian..."

"They are nothing but bullshit... They must have kept an eye on those gangsters... Don't let them take advantage..."

"...Fart! I don't rely on the president, who can I rely on... When things are done, we will reward you based on your merits!"

"Tell Wu Big Tongue that he must be keeping an eye on me in the north!"
