Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Zhang Xiaolin was furious when he heard this: "Assholes, absolutely assholes, they dared not come back after receiving the order from the Green Gang, don't they know the gang rules? If they don't obey the instructions of the gang leader, they will be killed without mercy after being caught."

"These people dared not to come back after receiving the order. Do they want to die?"

Zhang Xiaolin was quite angry when he heard that the Qing Gang disciples outside would not come back.

Liu Heng said: "Most of these people already know the current situation of the Green Gang in Shanghai. Even if they come back, they may die, so they simply don't come back."

"Besides, we are currently unable to take care of ourselves. Even if we want to deal with them, I'm afraid we don't have the ability to do so."

"So, even if they don't come back, there's nothing we can do. It's precisely because they know this that they choose not to obey the Green Gang's orders."

Zhang Xiaolin said angrily, "When the Qing Gang was in danger, none of these bastards came back to help. They are simply heinous. When I have resolved the matter here, I will definitely settle accounts with them one by one."

"I will not let any of those who sit back and do nothing this time go."

Liu Heng said: "This is all for the future. Now we still have to find a way to deal with Longmen. Boss, if these Green Gang disciples outside don't come back, it will be difficult for us to fight against Longmen relying solely on the strength of our Shanghai Green Gang."

Zhang Xiaolin said sternly: "Even if it's just the Shanghai Green Gang, I will fight to the death with Ye Yunfei."

"It's either him or me who dies."

"Besides, the only two gangs that can be counted in Shanghai right now are our Green Gang and his Longmen. So, if we destroy Longmen, our Green Gang will be the number one in Shanghai."

"Although this is dangerous, it is also an opportunity that cannot be missed."

Hearing what Zhang Xiaolin said, Liu Heng nodded. This was indeed true.

Because during this period of time, Ye Yunfei's Longmen had already taken over Rongshe and Hengshe one after another.

The original situation in which three major gangs coexisted in Shanghai no longer exists.

In Shanghai now, there are only the Green Gang and the Longmen.

If Longmen is destroyed, the Green Gang will be number one in Shanghai. This is indeed a very good opportunity.

However, although the opportunity exists, the risk is also very great.

If things go wrong, you may die without a burial place.

Just as the two were thinking, another person came in and said to Zhang Xiaolin: "Boss, I'm back. I've found some clues about the matter you asked me to investigate."

Hearing this man's words, Zhang Xiaolin was immediately overjoyed and said, "Really? You found out about that matter."

This person is Zhang Xiaolin’s confidant in the Green Gang, named Zheng Shi.

Zheng Shi is the head of the Qing Gang's intelligence department, responsible for collecting intelligence and, of course, occasionally carrying out assassinations.

Many of the Qing Gang’s opponents were defeated by Zheng Shi, so Zhang Xiaolin trusts Zheng Shi very much.

In recent times, Zhang Xiaolin has been asking Zheng Shi to investigate something very important.

Now that he heard that this matter finally had a result, Zhang Xiaolin was extremely excited.

If this matter has any results, it will bring about major changes to the entire Qing Gang.

Zheng Shi said: "Yes, I have investigated it clearly."

Zhang Xiaolin immediately said, "Then tell me what you found out."

Zheng Shi said: "Boss, just as you guessed, the one who killed Lu Xiaojia was Ye Yunfei."

"A month ago, Zheng Fei kidnapped Lu Xiaojia and asked Lu Yongxiang for two million yuan. After Lu Yongxiang gave the two million yuan to Ye Yunfei, Ye Yunfei killed Lu Xiaojia and dumped the body in front of the gate of Lu Yongxiang's mansion."

"This was done by Ye Yunfei."

Hearing Zheng Shi's words, Zhang Xiaolin was overjoyed: "It was really done by that little bastard Ye Yunfei. I guessed at the time that this matter might be related to Ye Yunfei, but I had no evidence."

"I didn't expect that this guy really did it. He is so brave that he dared to kill Lu Yongxiang's son. Lu Xiaojia is Lu Yongxiang's only precious son. Killing Lu Xiaojia is undoubtedly like taking half of Lu Yongxiang's life."

"Now it's interesting."

Zheng Shi said: "Yes, during this period of time, Lu Yongxiang has been investigating who killed his son, but he has never found out."

"If he knew that Ye Yunfei did this, he would never let Ye Yunfei go."

Zhang Xiaolin laughed loudly and said, "I was just worrying about how to kill Ye Yunfei. I didn't expect that he would come to my door on his own initiative. It couldn't be better."

"If I tell Lu Yongxiang this news, not only can I establish a better relationship with him, but I can also use Lu Yongxiang to kill Ye Yunfei. In this way, Ye Yunfei will die without me even having to do anything."

"Yes, I will go see Lu Yongxiang right away."

Zhang Xiaolin couldn't wait to meet Lu Yongxiang.

This news is the best way to deal with Ye Yunfei.

……

After a while, Zhang Xiaolin found Lu Yongxiang.

"General Lu, I have important clues to report to you."

Zhang Xiaolin said to Lu Yongxiang.

Lu Yongxiang said: "If you have anything to say, tell me now. I'm very busy recently and don't have extra time for you."

Zhang Xiaolin said, "I heard that General Lu's son, Lu Xiaojia, was killed a week ago, and that person also dumped Lu Xiaojia's body in front of your door to humiliate you."

"General Lu has been investigating the murderer for a while, right?"

Lu Yongxiang said coldly: "So what? If I catch the murderer who killed my son, I will grind him to ashes."

Zhang Xiaolin said, "So General Lu hasn't found the murderer who killed Master Ling yet."

Lu Yongxiang said: "Not yet, but I will find him sooner or later."

Zhang Xiaolin said: "It's a coincidence that I have some clues about the murderer, so I came here specially to report to General Lu."

"What, you have clues about my son's murderer."

Lu Yongxiang immediately stood up and looked at Zhang Xiaolin in shock.

Zhang Xiaolin nodded and said, "I also accidentally learned some clues about Master Ling's murder. I hope I can give General Lu some help."

Lu Yongxiang said: "Tell me, who killed my son."

Zhang Xiaolin said, "I am willing to tell General Lu who the murderer is, but I hope General Lu will agree to one request of mine. I don't know if it's possible."

Lu Yongxiang said: "What request?"

Zhang Xiaolin said: "General Lu should be aware of the situation of our Qing Gang. I hope that if our Qing Gang has any trouble in the future, General Lu can help us. That's all I ask."

"Will General Lu be satisfied?"

After Zhang Xiaolin finished speaking, he stared at Lu Yongxiang.

Lu Yongxiang is one of the most powerful warlords in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. He has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command and is very powerful.

If the Green Gang could find Lu Yongxiang as their backer, they would be absolutely invincible in Shanghai.
