Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

These men in black acted very quickly. After entering the warehouse, they immediately poured gasoline all over the warehouse filled with opium.

Gasoline covered the entire warehouse, and then several people took out lighters and set all the goods on fire.

The fire spread quickly, and at the same time, the seven people left the warehouse and disappeared into the darkness.

"Fire, fire, get up, fire."

After the flames had completely burned, the Green Gang disciples on the dock woke up from their deep sleep.

Seeing the raging fire, everyone panicked and immediately started using water to put out the fire.

However, it was too late to put out the fire.

A fire broke out, and the warehouse was filled with opium, which is the most flammable drug.

It can't be extinguished at all.

Moreover, the flames kept growing bigger and bigger, and the entire dock was almost on fire.

Even from thousands of meters away, you could see the raging flames.

……

The next morning, a piece of news appeared in Shanghai's newspapers.

Late last night, a fire suddenly broke out at a dock located in Qingbang. The flames were so fierce that the entire dock was almost burned down.

Also burned down were more than a dozen warehouses at the dock. It was said that each of those warehouses contained very precious goods.

In this fire, both the dock and the cargo were gone.

In the Tianlonghui branch, Yamamoto Hiroshi was shocked after seeing the fire at the Qingbang wharf last night.

His twelve ships of opium were all piled up at the Green Gang's dock.

And the newspapers reported that there was a huge fire on the dock and everything was burned down.

Yamamoto Hiroshi was immediately panicked. The dock that was on fire couldn't be the one where he stored the opium.

He immediately drove to the dock.

At the same time, Green Gang boss Zhang Xiaolin also rushed to the dock after receiving the news.

Zhang Xiaolin's face turned pale and blue, and his whole body was shaking.

He had already received news that the dock that caught fire last night was exactly the dock where the Tianlong Society stored opium.

Everything on the dock was burned.

He was now shocked and angry, not understanding how the fire happened.

What made him even more angry was how to explain this matter to the Tianlong Society.

He had just established a cooperative relationship with the Tianlong Society yesterday, and this happened today.

The consequences could be disastrous.

Zhang Xiaolin and Yamamoto Hiroshi arrived at the dock almost at the same time.

When they arrived at the dock, they saw that it was a ruin burned by fire and they could not find anything.

After getting off the car, Yamamoto Hiroshi saw this scene and immediately grabbed Zhang Xiaolin and said, "Mr. Zhang, what's going on at this dock? Where are my goods? Where are my goods?"

Zhang Xiaolin said with a dark face: “Mr. Yamamoto, as you can see, there was a fire at the dock last night. The entire dock was burned and nothing was left.”

Yamamoto Hiroyuki yelled, "What about my goods? Where did my goods go?"

Zhang Xiaolin said: "Even the docks are burned down. Where can we find the goods? They are all gone."

boom.

Yamamoto Hong kicked Zhang Xiaolin, and Zhang Xiaolin fell to the ground. He was just about to get angry, but seeing Yamamoto Hong's murderous eyes, he held back and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, I'm also very sorry for the fire that happened yesterday. I don't know why there was a sudden fire. In this fire, dozens of people from my Qing Gang were burned to death, and I also suffered heavy losses."

"Please forgive me, Mr. Yamamoto."

Yamamoto Hiro said sternly: "I forgive your mother, Zhang Xiaolin. I piled such a large batch of goods at your dock, but you burned them all. Do you know how much this batch of goods is worth? An astronomical figure."

"You actually let him die, believe it or not, I will kill you."

Zhang Xiaolin immediately said: "Mr. Yamamoto, I understand your feelings, but I can only express my regret for this matter."

"No one expected a fire to happen. I sent people to put out the fire as soon as possible, but we still couldn't save your goods."

Yamamoto Hiro said sternly: "I don't care about that and I don't want to listen to your nonsense. I just want my goods."

"Zhang Xiaolin, so many of my goods were burned. Now tell me what to do."

Zhang Xiaolin gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, your goods were burned at my dock. I will definitely give you an explanation."

"Last night, your goods had just entered the dock warehouse, and a fire broke out at night. I suspect that someone set the fire on purpose."

"Mr. Yamamoto, please have someone investigate whether someone really burned your goods on purpose. If you find out, I will definitely satisfy you."

Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Hiroshi's pupils condensed and he said, "You mean, someone deliberately burned my goods and deliberately went against me."

Zhang Xiaolin said: "Yes, I feel that someone deliberately set the fire, otherwise, it would be impossible for such a coincidence to happen."

"The goods just arrived yesterday and were burned at night. The possibility of human error is very high."

Yamamoto Hiroshi said coldly: "Then who do you think did it, Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Xiaolin said: "I don't have any solid evidence yet, but I suspect that this matter is related to Longmen Ye Yunfei."

"He originally had a problem with our Qing Gang, and he also had conflicts with your Tianlong Society before."

"Now your goods are burned. It is very likely that he set the fire. Of course, I am just guessing and I am not sure at the moment."

“But I feel like it shouldn’t be too wrong.”

Ye Yunfei.

Yamamoto Hiro clenched his fists and said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, please go and investigate immediately to see if Ye Yunfei was the one who set the fire last night."

"If it was really Ye Yunfei who released it, come back and tell me, and I will take care of it."

Zhang Xiaolin said: "Okay, I'll check it out right away."

After receiving the reply, Yamamoto Hiroshi left.

Watching Yamamoto Hiroshi leave, Zhang Xiaolin spat.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you hit me? If it weren't for the fact that you're an islander, I would fight you to the death."

Zhang Xiaolin was very unhappy that Yamamoto Hiroshi dared to hit him.

However, he didn't dare to do anything to Yamamoto Hiroshi. His Qing Gang was nothing in front of Yamamoto Hiroshi.

He didn't dare to touch Yamamoto Hiroshi at all.

However, after the conversation just now, Zhang Xiaolin had an idea.

If it were really discovered that Ye Yunfei had set the fire last night, then Yamamoto Hiroshi would definitely send someone to retaliate immediately, which would actually be a good thing.

Maybe, in a fit of rage, Yamamoto Hiroshi would kill Ye Yunfei immediately.

In this way, his goal will be achieved ahead of schedule.

So he immediately sent people to investigate.

Moreover, even if there is an investigation, it is just a formality.

Regardless of whether Ye Yunfei did it or not, he would blame it on Ye Yunfei.

Let Yamamoto Hiroshi go and settle the score with Ye Yunfei.
