20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 421 Fighting and killing, the world is wise

In the evening, Xiaoxiguan's bustling market had just ended, and the feasting nightlife had not yet begun. It was time for dinner, and except for a few restaurants, the other businesses on the street were somewhat deserted.

Na Min and Suo Cheng took four brothers and rushed from the Nantie Annex towards the "Heshengfang" gambling stall.

Along the way, although we can't say that everything is under control, we are always a little worried.

The Jiang family's eyes and ears are spread all over the provincial capital, with two offices in Xiaoxiguan, and there are countless informants, such as peddlers carrying burdens, drivers pulling carts, beggars along the street... A look, a few laughs, all seem to have something else in mind. The pictures and meanings indicate something. If you believe it, it exists. If you don’t believe it, it doesn’t exist.

Especially when they walked to Heshengfang and saw the seal on the door, everyone hesitated in their steps, unsure of the "sincerity" from the Jiang family.

Fortunately, everything was fine. Na Min and Suo Cheng went around to the alley in the back street of the gambling stall and came to the back door. Zhao Guoyan and a dozen brothers had been waiting here for a long time.

"Who is Namin?"

"I'm."

Zhao Guoyan nodded, then glanced at everyone again, and finally set his eyes on Suo Qie, and said, "And you, you two go in, the others are waiting outside."

"I don't plan anything." Suo Qi shook his head and said, "Before taking action, test it first. This is the habit of Fifth Master Rong."

"You don't mind the trouble. You even made a special plan for me. What are you trying to do?" Jiang Lianheng asked.

Suo Cheng looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say. He just thought about it in his mind. If the talks broke down later, would he have a chance to go forward and exchange lives with Jiang Lianheng? Of course, this was really helpless.

At this time, the sun had not yet set, and the sky outside was still very bright. However, because there were no lights on inside the gambling stall, the light seemed particularly dim.

Na Min and Suo Qi walked into the store, and under the guidance of a Jiang family thug, they walked through the back hall, turned a corner, and came to a huge gambling table.

"Lian Gong is brilliant!" Na Min suddenly took over the conversation and said hurriedly, "To be honest, although Rong Wuye is gone, he really valued Lian Gong at the beginning and wanted to cooperate with you, but... ugh ! You didn’t want to do this, and you had no choice but to get into trouble. Fortunately, Mr. Lian was magnanimous and showed mercy to us! "

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Guoyan took a step sideways and stood in front of the two of them, "Launch the gun!"

Zhao Guoyan checked it carefully twice, and after confirming that it was correct, he pushed open the back door of Heshengfang, gestured at the two of them, and said coldly: "Go in!"

"Lian Gong is so generous!" Na Min quickly clasped his fists and bowed, smiling bitterly, "My defeated generals don't dare to sit down."

Jiang Lianheng looked at the two people from side to side, and suddenly asked: "When you recruited me to join the gang, you wanted me to cooperate with the Zongshe Party's actions, including the assassination of Lao Zhang, right?"

He spoke half-heartedly, in contrast, Suo Cheng was more calm.

Suo Cheng and Na Min looked at each other. Although they hesitated, the arrow was on the string and they had to shoot. Even if there was a fight on the spot, they could not leave the provincial capital, so they reluctantly stepped forward.

Na Min was startled for a moment, then nodded and admitted, "That's right! The Laoshan people wanted to borrow the power of Green Forest Jianghu from the beginning, and cooperate internally and externally to capture Fengtian. If they can get rid of Zhang Laogao, the 28th Division in Western Liaoning will be very powerful." They might work together to restore the Qing Dynasty, but I had never been sure of Lian Gong's idea before, so I didn't tell the truth. "

His expression was relaxed and indifferent. Although his aura was not weak, there was no hint of sullenness or aggressiveness on his face. Instead, he raised his hand casually and said politely: "Sit down!"

"No fight, no acquaintance, sit down!"

This rhetoric may sound like fantasy at first, but it is actually feasible.

"After the test, he suddenly changed his mind. He didn't want to settle a score with me. Instead, he wanted to recruit me into his gang. Is that what you meant?"

At this time, Jiang Lianheng was sitting in the dealer's seat, with Liu Yansheng standing on his right and four bodyguards standing behind him.

Jiang Lian turned sideways and put his right hand on the table. He looked at Suo Cheng very curiously and couldn't help but laugh: "Brother, we meet again. You are really good at hiding!"

"Winning is the king and losing is the bandit, I am willing to admit defeat!" Suo Chi said while rubbing the table, "We failed to assassinate you, but you went to assassinate Rong Wuye, and it was successful. Although the matter has come to this, everyone is his own master. , I only hope that Boss Jiang can be noble, keep his word, and turn gold into jade. "

The alliance under the city had no choice. Suo Cheng turned around and winked at his men, and finally removed the gun from his waist. Na Min raised his hands high and allowed the Jiang family brothers to come forward and search him.

First of all, the president is currently focusing all his energy on the southern country and has no time to care about the outside world. This is why Zhang Laogeda can successfully expel Duan Zhigui and become the governor of Fengtian as he wishes.

Secondly, although Master Feng and Zhang Laoge are sworn brothers, they have competing interests with each other. Lao Zhang is the governor, and Lao Feng is the most dissatisfied. They can sow discord between them.

Finally, if King Qin's army really attacks Fengtian under the protection of Xiao Dongyang, the people in the city will definitely be in panic, the bannermen outside the pass will probably raise their heads again, and the Jianghu Hui party can take advantage of the chaos to disrupt the situation.

Under the banner of "supporting the Qing Dynasty and conquering the country", once Zhang Laogeda is successfully assassinated, the Yellow Dragon Flag will most likely hang between the white mountains and black waters again.

Of course, Rong Wuye and others also knew that Jiang Lianheng was relying on Zhang Laoge's influence to establish a government, and it was not easy to instigate rebellion. However, after the first meeting, Li Zhengxi's reaction to the profits of medicinal materials, as well as Zhong, The ambiguous attitude of the two Han people made Na Min believe that the Jiang family might work for the Clan Socialist Party, which led to all the things that happened in the future.

These words finally dispelled Jiang Lianheng's previous doubts - the reason why Rong Wuye didn't care about Qiao Laoer's matter was because he felt that the Jiang family's power in Fengtian was more important.

"Now that the plan has failed, what are you going to do?" Jiang Lianheng asked.

Suo Chi replied: "We were originally helping Mr. Rong Wu to do things. Now that he is dead, we don't plan to go through this muddy water again."

Na Min even said simply: "If you don't give up, we are also willing to help you, whether it is here or at Luda."

Jiang Lianheng smiled: "Fengtian Temple is small and cannot accommodate a Qing Dynasty."

As he said that, he turned to Liu Yan and asked for pen and paper, put it on the gambling table, and said, "You guys write down the activities and plans of other socialist parties in Feng Province, and then you can leave."

Na Min took the pen, hung it in mid-air, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard that Mr. Lian always keeps his word and keeps his promises, so I brought my brothers here today to plead for mercy."

Jiang Lianheng nodded slightly: "Just write, I guarantee that the Jiang family will not attack you."

Liu Yansheng limped one leg, walked around the gambling table, and took out a few train tickets from his arms: "There will be a train after seven o'clock, so write quickly!"

Na Min knew that he was not qualified to negotiate terms and could only place his wealth and life on the morality of the world, so he hunkered down at his desk and started writing furiously. These include the hidden branches of the Zongshe Party in Niuzhuang, Zhuanghe, Haicheng and other places, the green forest bandits recruited from the Qianshan and Andong areas, as well as a few Black Dragon Society rogues and Oriental lower-class people who are willing to help the Zongshe recover. officer.

Some things were written in great detail, and some situations even he had a partial understanding of. He didn't know the details and could only give a vague general idea.

After finishing two pages of writing, Na Min and Suo Cheng knew that they were no longer of use, so they looked at the "dealer" in front of them with a hung heart.

"Lian Gong, we only know these things. If you want to get to the bottom of it, you have to go there in person. I hope you can keep your word."

Jiang Lianheng took the "confession" and glanced at it hurriedly. Without even raising his head, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

Leaving now?

Na Min and Suo Cheng were doubtful and couldn't help but look up at Liu Yansheng. They saw the lame man also nodded to them and waved to them impatiently.

So, the two slowly stood up and took a few steps back.

At this time, the light in the gambling stall was already very dim, and the words "big", "small" and "harmony" on the gambling table were extremely blurred. The thirty-six-character Tiangang hanging on the wall was as red as blood. The Jiang family's The thugs all had straight faces and remained silent, making the atmosphere a bit strange. Na Min could clearly hear the sound of his heart hitting his ribs, and his eyes never dared to leave Jiang Lianheng.

However, until he and Suo Qi retreated to the back hall, Jiang Lianheng was still sitting sideways in the dealer's seat, immersed in reading the "confession" in his hand, without saying goodbye, and never looking towards them.

"Om-"

The back door of the gambling stall suddenly opened. Na Min was startled and quickly turned around, only to see Zhao Guoyan just standing at the door, saying calmly: "Let's go! Stop dawdling!"

In the alley outside the door, the four brothers brought by the two men were also safe and sound.

Suo Chi exchanged glances with them and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that their guns had not been taken off.

Na Min also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and bowed with his fists in the gloomy gambling stall: "Lian Gong can have such magnanimity, he will become famous in the future, it is really admirable, thank you Lian Gong for your noble hand, Na Ming is ashamed, thank you Thank you!”

However, this heartfelt voice was swallowed up by the dark gambling stalls like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no response at all.

Jiang Lianheng didn't say a word, making the situation a bit awkward.

Finally, Zhao Guoyan patted Na Min on the shoulder from behind and urged: "Let's go quickly!"

"Okay, okay! Then... let's go!"

"Let's go! Are you still waiting for me to see you off?"

"That's not necessary, that's not necessary!" Na Min led the crowd for a few steps, suddenly turned around, but did not notice any move by Zhao Guoyan and others, so he laughed twice again, "You heroes, we don't know each other until we fight. , What a great kindness, I will never forget it, I’m really gone!”

"You can stay if you want."

"No, no, no! Let's go, let's go!"

Na Min waved his hand quickly, and then he led everyone out of the alley and came to Xiaoxiguan Street. When he finally looked back, Zhao Guoyan was still standing where he was.

"This Jiang Lianheng is really a character, he does what he says!"

Several people couldn't help but sigh in admiration as they walked towards the west gate.

"Master, then our errand is over," someone asked. "Should we find a way and find an opportunity to come back later?"

"Kill your mother!" Namin yelled, "Do you understand the rules of the world? You are trying to kill me for being so noble this time. Why do you want to kill me? Can you kill me!"

Suo Qie shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The Zongshe Party is out of business. Most of its weapons are lost. Master Rong Wu is dead. The Laoshan people can't trust us. The support from Dongyang is also weak. How can we fight back? We don't even know how to survive." where!"

After saying that, several people suddenly panicked.

"Then...who will pay us in the future?"

There are many practical questions, but unfortunately no one can answer them at the moment. When walking into the small west city gate, several big-blocked figures suddenly appeared outside the city and set up checkpoints.

"Master, can you put away your braids?" Suo Cheng quickly became alert and took a few steps back to remind, "Don't embarrass everyone!"

At this moment, a series of harsh shouts sounded from behind.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Jiang Erye and Lao Xia led a team of patrolmen and quickly surrounded them from behind, blocking the city gate tightly. "Those people, stop! I'm talking about you guys! It's you, with a hanging on the back of your head. Where did that pig-tail guy come from? "

"Crack! Click!"

The two teams of patrolmen immediately pulled the bolts of their guns and ordered: "Be honest! Don't move. If you move again, you'll fucking shoot!"

…………

At the same time, in Heshengfang gambling stall.

Liu Yansheng leaned down slightly and whispered: "Brother Dao, Mr. Jiang from the patrol station asked me to say hello to you. He said that he wanted to thank the Jiang family for not disregarding the past. Please take care of him in the future!"

Jiang Lianheng nodded.

When he first returned to Fengtian, Nanfeng once told him that after something happened at home, Mr. Jiang helped to ventilate the child and gave him some guidance, allowing the Jiang family to get rid of the detective Zhao Yongcai in time.

Although they actually have their own agendas and take advantage of each other, if they don't add insult to injury when they lose power, it can be regarded as caring about three points of favor, and they can't ask for too much.

"This is a very particular person." Jiang Lianheng ordered, "If there are any cases in the city in the future, if our family has clues, we can give him more so that he can make meritorious service and be promoted faster."

"I know." Liu Yansheng responded, "But these people won't be released again, right?"

"Release?" Jiang Lianheng sneered, "Do you know how big a crime this is? Subverting the authority, intending to split the country, and being implicated in the assassination of a provincial official. He was killed ten times and he was still unjust. What the fuck? Want to be released? If the patrol department dares to release people, let alone Mr. Jiang, even Wang Tiegeng will die anyway, so it’s better to go with the flow and be a favor.”

Fighting and killing, human nature is sophisticated, the rivers and lakes are dangerous, and he becomes a master over time.

Jiang Lianheng looked at the "confession" in his hand, wrote down the distribution of the Zongshe Party's secret lines recorded on it, and immediately handed it to Liu Yansheng and said: "When we are done with this period of time, we will arrange for people to go and check according to the places above. ”

"Brother, if Namin and the others are caught by the patrol, they will definitely be tortured. The patrol will definitely know this information. Can we... still have time?"

Jiang Lianheng frowned, but said, "Yansheng, do you really think I am determined to be a spy?"

"Then..." Liu Yansheng thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I understand! Brother, I understand!"

It turned out that the Chazong Socialist Party came second. What Jiang Lianheng really wanted to do was to use the name of the Chazong Socialist Party to infiltrate the Jiang family’s business into all parts of Feng Province, holding a letter with Lao Zhang’s private seal in his hand. It is much easier to have a secret agent special adviser certificate, race in the world, collude with officials and businessmen, and annex local snakes.

Therefore, the reward for rushing to Luda to assassinate Mr. Rong Wu had far exceeded Jiang Lianheng's expectations.

Not only has the Jiang family's online position been consolidated and Lao Zhang's trust further gained, but it can also be used to join forces and continue to expand the business. It is really a multi-purpose achievement.

While drinking tea, Zhao Guoyan walked into the gambling stall and said with a smile: "Brother Dao, there is news from Xifeng. The old man from the Red Mansion Mansion said, 'If you fail to restore the country, you will die to prove your ambition.'"

Jiang Lian nodded with a smile, stood up immediately, and called the brothers to walk out the door.

"Brothers, you have worked hard these days. Let's go. Tonight, call everyone together and have a banquet at Juxiang Pavilion for two people!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and it was enough to make two mouthfuls!
