From a freeloader to a world leader

Chapter 22 Black and White Society

Sun Shan saw the crowd watching and was irritated by him.

He stepped aside and threw the wooden stick to the waiter of the Zhang family who came forward to watch.

He saw that Zhang Yuliang had already climbed up, and took advantage of the chaotic crowd to kick the bald man several times, one of which was between the bald man's legs.

The bald man let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Then, Zhang Yuliang withdrew. After all, he was wearing a scholar's robe and was the young master of Jun Youlai Restaurant, so it was better for him to stay away from him.

He was filled with ecstasy, walked towards Sun Shan with a wide grin, and gave a thumbs up.

Now, he admired Sun Shan very much, whether it was his skills, eloquence, or courage.

All of them are better than me!

Just when he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly fell on a carriage not far behind Sun Shan, and he was surprised to find that.

The middle-aged man named Li, who had just spoken to Sun Shan at the city gate, also followed.

At this moment, he was watching with great interest the scene of the crowd beating up the gangsters.

Moreover, the extremely pretty girl who had two dimples when she smiled was also squeezing in the car window with a very pretty girl, watching the fight happening in front of the restaurant.

Occasionally, his shining eyes fell on Sun Shan, who was standing with his hands behind his back.

When Sun Shan saw Zhang Yuliang's expression, he subconsciously turned his head to look.

At first glance, I saw Uncle Li’s daughter looking at me.

In an instant, as if a flame was ignited, Sun Shan felt his heart start beating.

At this moment, in Sun Shan’s world, there were only these round, blinking eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

"Cough! Cough cough----"

Li Ziqiang saw that Sun Shan, the boy, stared at his daughter stupidly without blinking, looking like a masochist.

Feeling extremely uncomfortable, he coughed twice and moved his body between the two people's gazes.

"Uncle, Uncle Li, you are here too. What a coincidence."

At this time, Sun Shan saw Uncle Li, with whom he had just been chatting happily, staring at him. He greeted him with a smile on his face and ran towards the carriage.

How could Li Ziqiang not know what he meant? This was his only daughter, who lost her mother when she was young, and he had always treated her like his sweetheart.

I have been raising flowers for more than ten years, how can I easily please another silly boy!

He glared at Sun Shan, pointed at Sun Shan who was running towards him, and made a gesture to tell him to stay away.

Then, he jumped into the carriage.

Disappeared around the corner of the street in a flash.

I rely on!

Are you leaving now?

Am I so unwelcome?

Weren’t we just having a nice chat?

It's not that I'm destined to be with you. I just want to get closer to you and see your beautiful daughter. Don't you have to do this?

Zhang Yuliang was extremely happy to see Sun Shan's frustrated look, and was about to laugh at him with a grin.

A rumbling sound of running came from a distance.

In addition, sharp whistles and gongs sounded: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! The police station is doing its job!"

"Stop it, stop it right there! You're still hitting me-----"

It turned out that the constables from Hengzhou Prefecture had arrived.

Sun Shan looked at the constables with the word "Bu" on their chests, waving hemp rope swords in their hands, looking ferocious, and frowned.

Arriving so soon?

Could it be that someone had reported it before, or did the detectives have a clue?

In other words, there is some kind of connection between the constable and the people of the Qinglong Gang.

As a time traveler from a thousand years later, how could he not know that all gangsters rely on the white society to exist.

The two are not in cahoots with each other, but they are more or less a community of interests.

Especially in the feudal society of the Sui Empire, constables and yamen runners, with little formal income, all used various means to make money.

The fact that Zhang's restaurant is currently being targeted by the Qinglong Gang is definitely not an accidental occurrence.

Thinking of this, Sun Shan stopped and looked at the Zhang brothers who had also seen the detectives coming.

They saw the worry in each other's eyes.

Zhang Yushan was very surprised. He found that Sun Shan seemed to understand all of this. Compared with his younger brother who was somewhat ignorant and even happy, Sun Shan, who was two years younger than him, had a much more far-sighted vision.

In theory, he was only sixteen years old and had been studying in the academy, and had not yet experienced the beatings of society.

How can I understand the truth behind this?

He just took advantage of the gap when the crowd was beating up the Qinglong Gang to ask about the shopkeeper's cousin Zhang Yuhe.

It was learned that the Qinglong Gang came here intentionally to cause trouble.

At noon, five or six big men came. When they were about to leave after eating and drinking, they deliberately played tricks and asked the waiter to pour tea on them.

Then, he used the excuse of losing face and got drunk and asked the shopkeeper to pay him 100 taels of silver.

This is not entirely about leaving people no way to survive, but deliberately looking for trouble and targeting the Zhang family's restaurant.

Generally speaking, each area has its own local boss, and each gang has its own sphere of influence.

Although we don't say that we should keep out of each other's way, we definitely won't blackmail someone so blatantly.

Zhang Yushan was thinking nervously, but he quickly rushed over to greet them. He shouted to Captain Wang Dashan who was running in the front: "Captain Wang, thank you for coming to rescue us. My restaurant has been surrounded by people from the Qinglong Gang. Please tell me what you have done!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't interfere with our work, Mr. Zhang, let's talk about your business later-----"

Unexpectedly, Captain Wang, who had always been kind and to whom he had secretly given a lot of money, actually stretched out his hand to push him away, and shouted righteously: "Get out of the way, everyone, the police station is doing its job, stop it now."

He shouted and swung the wooden baton in his hand, knocking a civilian who was still beating the Qinglong Gang to the ground.

Zhang Yushan was stunned for a moment and felt that something was wrong.

He couldn't help but look at Sun Shan, his eyes filled with confusion, worry and fear.

"Let's go and take a look." Sun Shan smiled at Zhang Yushan and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Yushan, it won't matter much as Yuliang and I are here."

"Okay, okay, luckily you and Yuliang are here this time. It's easier to talk with you. These detectives-----"

When Zhang Yushan saw Sun Shan smiling, he inexplicably relaxed.

As a business veteran who had been trading for more than ten years, how could he not know who these constables were.

How could he not know that the Qinglong Gang was planning to suddenly build his own restaurant while he was away?

He also paid protection money.

Moreover, he not only paid protection fees to the Hongshan Gang, the local tyrant that protected this area, but also paid protection fees to constables like Wang Dashan.

But now, when Wang Dashan saw him, he didn't even raise his eyes.

It is obvious that he has received some information, or is involved in it.

If I were to go back to the city alone today, without my brother and Sun Shan, the two scholars, I would be shocked by the cruel methods used by constables like Wang Dashan.

If you don't die, you will lose a layer of skin.

Thinking of this, he secretly gritted his teeth and hated himself for not studying hard back then.

Now, even if I have earned some money over the years, in the eyes of others, I am still just a piece of meat.

I just don't know if my two younger brothers can get away with this with their status as scholars.

After thinking for a while, he felt that today's matter might still need to be resolved by Sun Shan.

Although his younger brother Yuliang is also a scholar like him, their vision and methods are obviously not on the same level.

"Brother, I may have to trouble you this time. I didn't expect to encounter this as soon as I came back. It's really dark."

"It's alright, Brother Yushan. If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. There is always a place for reason in this world."

While comforting Zhang Yushan and his brothers, Sun Shan carefully observed the behavior between the constables and the Qinglong Gang.

Especially the captain Wang who led the team and the leader of the Qinglong Gang Gao Dahu.

Sure enough, he discovered something. When Captain Wang rescued the Qinglong Gang, the two of them looked at each other several times.

They huddled together and whispered a few words.

After a while, all the members of the Qinglong Gang were rescued by the police.

Nearly twenty thugs were beaten black and blue by the mass fighters mobilized by Sun Shan.

Everyone's body and face were covered with saliva and footprints, and some even had broken arms and legs.

"Who is Sun Shan? Who was pretending to be a scholar, mobilizing the masses, and beating up innocent people?"
