20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 95 Wang Yanzong

The gunshots sounded different on both sides.

Two people fell down in "Woyun Tower", but only one light went out in "Huifangli".

Just now, when Jin Xiaoyi and Shen Guoliang were in a stalemate with the black blind man, a gunshot suddenly rang out. The onlookers were so frightened that they immediately shrugged their shoulders and shrank their heads, thinking that someone was going to die. But then, they heard a cry from upstairs.

"Damn it! In broad daylight... in the dark, gathering people to make trouble, what are you going to do? Do you all care about the imperial court?"

Everyone followed the sound and turned out to be Wang Yanzong from the patrol camp.

I saw him holding the belt around his waist with his left hand, holding a box gun in his right hand, throwing away his arms, and walking staggeringly down the stairs.

Looking at the black blind man again, of course there is nothing wrong with him.

The spectators breathed a sigh of relief. Some were thankful that no one was injured, while others were disappointed that there was not much excitement.

Thinking about it, everyone knows that the seven "Owl" brothers are cruel and evil. Anyone who offends them either dies in an accident or disappears under mysterious circumstances - all kinds of strange things are self-evident.

But they were not so crazy that they dared to kill people with guns in full view of the public.

That is a job that young men do if they are eager to make a name for themselves.

A respectable person will not be presumptuous.

After all, the government still has to give face.

Otherwise, Jin Xiaoyi's attack just now was not directed at the blind man's face, but at his throat.

Even if he had to shoot and kill people as a last resort, Shen Guoliang would definitely take the opportunity to destroy Bai Guoping. This is a good deal!Just a black blind man, not worth it!
The sound of Wang Yanzong's gunshot was regarded as the government's intervention. The two followers who were originally waiting outside the door immediately supported him. They didn't even fart just now, but now they are more capable.

"Move over! Move over! Be honest!"

When Xu Ruqing saw this situation, he immediately stepped forward to greet him as if he had been blown away by the wind.

"Oh! Wang Guandai, I'm so sorry. Something happened today, which spoiled your mood. Just wait a moment, I'll take care of it right away. Lingchun'er! Lingchun'er, come and help Wang Guandai. Go upstairs and rest."

Wang Yanzong raised his hand and interrupted: "Sister Hong, you're welcome! What's wrong? I was upstairs just now and saw it for real. Aren't they just a bunch of street gangsters here to make trouble!"

"That's true! Who can do everything smoothly in business? Many things, after all, are actually misunderstandings. Sometimes, there is just a lack of a fair and strict backbone to mediate for everyone. By chance, you are here , being able to take the time to give an opinion is a credit to Master Bai and I. It’s my family’s fault, and of course I have to apologize. If there is any misunderstanding, Master Bai is also a reasonable person, and he will not embarrass me. Women of the class. It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Why let young and old men laugh at each other? Why don’t we each take a step back and be harmonious to make money!"

Xu Ruqing has an exquisite appearance, and when she speaks, she is neither humble nor overbearing, and has a measured approach and retreat.

Hearing this, all the men, women and children present admired in their hearts. Even some of the thugs brought by Bai Guoping secretly admired him.

Wang Yanzong even laughed loudly and said, "Sister Hong, you must be good at chattering!"

After saying that, he turned around again, faced everyone in the Bai family, put one hand on his hip, and continued: "Everyone, don't say that I, Wang Yanzong, is meddling in other people's business! Protecting peace is one of the responsibilities of our patrol battalion. ."

The spectators nodded: "That's right! That's right!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Yanzong favors Xu Ruqing.

It's no wonder that the patrol battalion is somewhere between the military and the police. It is said to be an army, but it can only garrison the province. It is said to be a police force, but its weapons and equipment are only inferior to those of the new army. It may be called "armed police investigation."

The personnel of the patrol battalion are mainly composed of former flag soldiers, green battalions, rural warriors, and regiment drills, with a large number of bandit beards mixed in.

This group of people are "the afterglow of the old days", with lax military discipline and strong Jianghu arrogance, so most of them have some intersection with Zhou Yunfu.

The officers and bandits are all close!
As the saying goes, an official with an iron-clad yamen.

When Mr. Xu was there, strong men were in charge. These old forces did not dare to openly help Zhou Yunfu, but Zhou Yunfu never lost the "friendship" that should be maintained.

Mr. Qingtian will leave one day.

Now that Mr. Xu has been transferred, the Zhou family has rejuvenated overnight and is on its feet again.

Wang Yanzong walked up to the Bai family and said, "Bai Guoping, right? I saw it just now. When your people come here, they won't sleep with girls, but have to sleep with other people's big teapots. This is called immoral! Overturned tables and smashed bowls, this is It’s called picking quarrels and provoking trouble! I’ll give you two options, either pay a fine of two hundred yuan and never do it again; or come with me!”

"pick a quarrel?"

Bai Guoping sneered, walked to the table, and said, "I represent the Fengtian United Commerce Federation, and I'm here to inspect the operating conditions of various merchants. How do you call it provoking trouble? If you smell this dish, it's so damn bad! And this The wine is sour! How to eat it? For the sake of the people of Fengtian, our General Chamber of Commerce will definitely punish such profiteers severely!"

Everyone knows that this is nonsense, and the Chamber of Commerce has never had the right to enforce the law. "Fart!" Wang Yanzong cursed, "Who the hell are you fooling?"

But Bai Guoping didn't go into details here. Instead, he suddenly changed the subject and launched an accusation.

"I want to ask you, Wang Guandai, what's going on with a dignified military officer who comes to a brothel to support the old madam?"

"I'm here to find your mother!"

Bai Guoping was not angry, but suddenly said solemnly: "Wang Guandai, I have to remind you. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, civil and military officials are not allowed to have sex with prostitutes! You'd better make up the lie more convincingly!"

Qing regulations?

Everyone was slightly startled, feeling that this word had always been there, but now it sounded a bit strange.

It stands to reason that today's imperial court is so overwhelmed that it can hardly save the country, so how can it have the time to pay attention to these details?
There were so many laws and regulations in the Qing Dynasty, how many are still left to count?
There are definitely not as many treaties anyway!
But the problem is, despite usually turning a blind eye, as long as the law exists, it can be used to eradicate dissidents and kill people invisible.

Wang Yanzong, who was born with a beard and had a fiery temper, could not stand the threat of literati's pen and ink, so he immediately rushed over and took action.

Seeing this, the follower beside him quickly stopped him, leaned into his ear, and whispered a reminder: "Sir, this man can't move!"

"Can't move?" Wang Yanzong said angrily, "He has multiple baskets? Why can't he move?"

The follower hurriedly said: "The Bai family has a cooperative company with Xiao Dongyang. Master Bai is the general manager. If you touch him, it will not be corrected and it will easily provoke the Japanese! The commander specifically said to avoid any conflicts with the Japanese!"

The voice was very soft, but the words "Xiao Dongyang" and "Japanese" were still like awls, piercing into the ears of others, attracting the attention of the onlookers.

Bai Guoping also heard a few words and couldn't help but feel proud.

"How's it going? The king is in charge, can you still be arrogant? Huh?"

"So that's it! Oops, Master Bai, disrespectful!"

Wang Yanzong pretended to be surprised and stepped forward with a smile on his face.

Bai Guoping looked at him sideways and couldn't help but snorted: "Now that you know, please ask Commander Wang to make way for you! Don't worry, I am not a bully. If you are accommodating once, our Bai family will remember your kindness - —”

"Fuck you! Shit!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Wang Yanzong suddenly lift his leg and kick it out.

Bai Guoping accidentally felt pain in his abdomen and leaned back. Fortunately, there were many younger brothers behind him who supported him in time, otherwise he would have been kicked out directly.

"You dare to hit me?"

"I'm the one who beat you, you bitch!" Wang Yanzong blushed and had a thick neck, "Your mother lacked so much virtue to give birth to a thing like you, who takes a Japanese as his father!"

"Are you fucking crazy?" Bai Guoping yelled.

Wang Yanzong suddenly raised the muzzle of his gun and rushed forward.

"You bitch traitor! Use the Japanese to crush me, and I'll fucking kill you!"

The Bai family's thugs were considered loyal and stood in front of the eldest young master. The black blind man even rushed over from behind Wang Yanzong, trying to stop him.

Everyone was in a panic, even "Owl" and "Chuan'erhong" felt strange.

Although Wang Yanzong was born with a beard, since he was able to get into the leadership of a battalion, he must have some sense. He must at least know how to assess the situation. But now he has such a careless attitude. If there is no personal hatred in it, I'm afraid I won't believe it.

When the scene was extremely chaotic, two groups of people suddenly came outside the door of "Huifangli". Judging from their clothes, they were patrol police and people from the patrol camp.

"Stop! Don't move!"

"Old Wang, what's going on with you? Put down the gun!"

Soldiers from several patrol battalions, with everyone's attention on them, hurried over to stop Wang Yanzong.

During this fleeting moment, a patrolman suddenly emerged from the crowd outside and whispered a few words to Bai Guoping's side.

No one seemed to be paying attention, but he could not escape the vicious eyes of the "Old Owl".
