Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

The young man was not very old, only about twenty years old.

But he is very handsome.

Ye Yunfei asked: "Who are you?"

The young man said, "I am here to sign up to join Longmen as well. Judging from your appearance, you must be here to sign up to join Longmen just like me."

Hearing this, Ye Yunfei laughed and said, "Yes, I am here to join Longmen as well."

The young man said, "I guess so, but I advise you to forget it. Looking at your physique, I'm afraid you can't join Longmen. There's no need to waste time queuing up."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yunfei immediately asked curiously, "Why can't I join? Is there any explanation?"

The young man said, "Longmen is the largest gang in Shanghai. There are many people who want to join Longmen. If you had come before, you might have had a chance to join, but it's different now."

"Longmen is very strict in recruiting disciples nowadays. Not only do they investigate their backgrounds, but they also check their bodies. If a person is too weak, Longmen will not accept him."

"Joining Longmen means you have to fight on the field. If you are too weak, you might be hacked to death as soon as you get on the field."

"So, now Longmen doesn't want anyone who is too weak."

"Looking at your physique, I'm afraid you can't even carry a sack, so forget it. You can't join Longmen."

Hearing what the young man said, Ye Yunfei said, "It turns out there are so many rules to join Longmen. I didn't know that before."

The young man said, "That's right. Longmen is now the largest gang in Shanghai and is well-known throughout the Republic of China. Do you think Longmen will accept any Tom, Dick or Harry?"

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "Yes, what about you? Can you join Longmen?"

The young man smiled and said, "Of course I can. Do you know where I come from?"

Ye Yunfei said: "I don't know, where are you from?"

The young man said proudly: "I came from Shaolin Temple. I have been a monk in Shaolin Temple for more than ten years. I have a lot of martial arts skills."

"I saw on the notice about Longmen recruiting disciples that those who practice martial arts will be given priority to enter Longmen."

"A martial artist like me is exactly what they need, so I will definitely be able to join Longmen."

The young man is full of confidence and looks very domineering.

Ye Yunfei looked at the young man with some surprise and said, "You actually came from Shaolin Temple. What's your name?"

"I am an orphan and I don't have a name, but my fellow disciples in Shaolin Temple all call me Xuanlin."

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "Xuanlin, since you are from Shaolin Temple, why don't you stay in Shaolin Temple? What are you doing in Shanghai?"

“There is no temple here.”

Xuanlin said: "I didn't want to leave either, but the warlords were fighting each other, and our Shaolin Temple was burned down by a warlord. Many of my fellow disciples were killed by that warlord."

"I had no choice but to flee, and eventually I came to Shanghai. I heard that Longmen was recruiting disciples, so I came here to give it a try."

Ye Yunfei stared at Xuan Lin and said, "Then what is your purpose in joining Longmen?"

Xuan Lin said: "The first purpose is to have a meal and not go hungry. Secondly, if there is a chance, I also want to avenge my fellow disciples in Shaolin Temple."

"See if there is such an opportunity by joining Longmen."

Ye Yunfei smiled and said, "You want to borrow the power of Longmen to avenge your fellow disciples in Shaolin Temple."

"I'm afraid Longmen won't help you get revenge."

Xuan Lin said: "I'm just saying it. What if I have a chance to get to the top of Longmen? Then I'll have a chance."

"If I can't make it to the top, it doesn't matter. I'll fill my stomach first. If there's a chance in the future, I'll find other ways to avenge my fellow apprentices."

Ye Yunfei nodded: "Not bad, very thoughtful."

Xuan Lin stared at Ye Yunfei and said, "You keep asking me, why don't you tell me about yourself, why you want to join Longmen, and where you are from."

Ye Yunfei smiled and said, "I don't have much to say. I'm just an ordinary gangster from Shanghai who wants to join Longmen and make a name for myself."

Xuan Lin said: "Your thoughts are the same as most people's, but with your physique, it is too difficult to join Longmen, or even impossible."

"I think you should just follow me first. After I join Longmen, if I can get to the top, I can bring you in as well."

"what do you think."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yunfei said calmly: "Why, you want to take me as your younger brother?"

Xuan Lin said: "I am doing this for your own good. You cannot join Longmen by yourself. If you become my younger brother, I can take you to Longmen in the future. This is a good thing."

"you consider it."

Ye Yunfei smiled faintly and said, "Not bad, very idealistic."

Just at this moment, a group of people came over, surrounding a man in a suit.

"It's Mr. Xu Wenqiang."

Seeing the man in a suit in front of him, Xuan Lin said with awe: "I didn't expect to see Mr. Xu Wenqiang at the dock today. I'm so lucky."

"Boy, you don't know who Mr. Xu Wenqiang is yet, right? Let me tell you, this Mr. Xu is extraordinary. He is the core figure of Longmen and the confidant of the Longmen leader. In Longmen, he has a very high status and great power."

"It is said that even the sect leader will listen to his advice on some matters. It is a great honor to meet Mr. Xu today."

Obviously, Xuan Lin was extremely in awe of Xu Wenqiang and spoke very respectfully.

Ye Yunfei said calmly: "So powerful? He must be a big shot."

Just at this moment, Xu Wenqiang saw them and walked straight towards them.

"Hey, why is Mr. Xu walking towards us? That's weird."

Xuan Lin was surprised to see Xu Wenqiang walking towards them, but also very excited.

At this time, Xu Wenqiang had already walked over. He said to Ye Yunfei: "Brother Fei, why are you at the dock? Tell me in advance when you come, and I will pick you up."

Ye Yunfei said: "I just happened to have nothing to do today, so I came to the dock to take a look. You go about your business, don't worry about me."

Xu Wenqiang said: "It's not very busy today. Since Brother Fei is here, I will report some of the situations to you."

Ye Yunfei nodded: "Okay."

Xu Wenqiang said: "Then Brother Fei, please follow me."

Having said that, he walked forward with Ye Yunfei.

Xuan Lin, who was standing aside, almost popped his eyes out.

His face was full of disbelief.

He stopped someone and said, "Hello, who was the person who just spoke to Mr. Xu? Why was Mr. Xu so respectful to him?"

The person next to him said, "You don't even know him, and yet you come to sign up to join Longmen. You really don't know a great man."

"That is the Lord of Longmen, Ye Yunfei."

"In the entire Longmen, apart from him, who else can make Xu Wenqiang so respectful?"

Ye, Ye Yunfei...

Xuan Lin's jaw almost dropped.
