Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Ye Yunfei's Longmen now completely occupies the southeast.

After joining Longmen for such a long time, Liu Zhengfeng has gained a certain understanding of Longmen's strength.

The current Longmen can be said to be strong in both men and horses.

There is no problem in protecting the southeast.

However, Ye Yunfei continues to recruit soldiers and horses. Does this mean that Ye Yunfei has the intention to advance into the Central Plains?

Throughout the ages, all heroes who wanted to accomplish great things, without exception, wanted to compete for the Central Plains.

Although the Southeast is wealthy, it is only half of the country after all.

Who would be willing to own only half of the country?

He didn't know what Ye Yunfei was thinking, but based on his feeling, Ye Yunfei would not just want Southeast.

When Ye Yunfei heard what Liu Zhengfeng said, he smiled and said, "Zhengfeng, you are also a smart person. There are some things I don't need to hide from you."

"Longmen's goal has never been just the southeast, but the entire Republic of China."

"Occupying the southeast is only the beginning of annexing the Republic of China."

"Now, because we have just occupied the southeast, we need stability and to consolidate our strength, so we can temporarily and safely hold the southeast."

"When the time is right, Longmen will definitely advance into the Central Plains, not only the Central Plains, but also the entire Republic of China."

"The Republic of China will belong to us, Longmen, sooner or later."

After Ye Yunfei finished speaking, Liu Zhengfeng nodded and said, "Master, now that you put it that way, I understand."

"Okay, after I return, I will immediately start recruiting soldiers and horses to prepare for the future."

Ye Yunfei said: "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you."

Liu Zhengfeng said, "I understand. If the chief wants anything else, just let him tell me. I'll be leaving first."

Ye Yunfei nodded: "Go ahead."

As soon as Liu Zhengfeng left, Ye Yunfei lit a cigarette.

Everything is ready. Now, we just have to wait for Liu Zhengfeng to recruit all the people.

By the time Liu Zhengfeng gathers these 100,000 or 200,000 people, Xu Wenqiang will probably have returned from abroad...

By then, everything will be ready and we can continue to do big things.

I stayed in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for nearly a month. After about a month, the issues in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have basically been resolved.

After the issues in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were almost resolved, Ye Yunfei returned to Shanghai.

Although Jiangsu and Zhejiang is a very large and developed city.

However, Ye Yunfei's favorite place is still Shanghai.

Moreover, Longmen’s headquarters is still in Shanghai, so he must return to Shanghai.

As for Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and other provinces in the southeast, we only need to let some core figures of Longmen be responsible for guarding them.

He only needs to come over at the most critical time. There is no need to come often at other times.

……

After returning to Shanghai, Ye Yunfei went directly to Lido.

This time I was away for nearly a month, and now that I'm back, I really feel a sense of longing.

Although the territory is larger now, the most comfortable place is still Lido.

One has already regarded Lido as his home.

"Brother Fei, you're back."

A Longmen disciple guarding Lido saw Ye Yunfei and spoke.

Ye Yunfei looked at the young disciple and said, "Your name is Tan Xiong, right? I remember you were also the first to join Longmen. Is it you who is guarding Lido now?"

The young disciple said, "Yes, Brother Fei, my name is Tan Xiong. I have been following Brother Fei for more than two years and have always been in Lido."

"So, I am now assigned to guard Lido."

Ye Yunfei nodded.

Lido is his base camp and the most important place in the entire Longmen.

Because he often lives in Lido, the people responsible for guarding Lido are the elite among the elite in Longmen.

These people not only have strong combat capabilities, but are also absolutely loyal to Longmen and him.

Therefore, Ye Yunfei knew many of these people.

This Tan Xiong can be said to be the boss of Lido.

It is also equivalent to the captain of his royal guard.

Ye Yunfei entered the office, lit a cigarette, looked at Tan Xiong and said, "I have been away from Lido for more than half a month. How is Lido? Has anything happened?"

Tan Xiong shook his head and said, "Nothing happened. During the time when Brother Fei was away, Lido was running normally and business was pretty good."

“Overall, the development is very good.”

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "What about Shanghai? How is the development of Shanghai as a whole?"

Tan Xiong said: "Everything is fine in Shanghai. There are no major incidents or problems."

"Some small gangs have recently emerged in Shanghai. These small gangs are scattered in various places in Shanghai. Sometimes they will cause some minor troubles, but generally speaking, they are stable."

Ye Yunfei asked: "Where did this gang come from? Did it come from other places, or did it develop locally in Shanghai?"

Tan Xiong said, "They basically all developed locally in Shanghai. Some of them were subordinates of the three former Shanghai tycoons. After the three tycoons were eliminated, some more people gathered together and started looking for trouble."

"There are also gangs formed by people from all walks of life. For example, rickshaw pullers formed a rickshaw union, and sack carriers formed a labor organization."

"In short, there are all kinds of small gangs, and there are quite a few of them. But, generally speaking, they are not a big threat, and they will not have any impact on us at Longmen."

After listening to what Tan Xiong said, Ye Yunfei nodded.

Things like gangs cannot be controlled.

Especially in places like Shanghai during the Republic of China, the chaotic environment and the geographical location close to the sea made it easy for gangs to breed.

So, no matter who manages Shanghai, there will always be gangs popping up.

However, Shanghai is now Longmen’s territory after all. Since it is managed by Longmen, no other gangs can exist in Shanghai.

Moreover, gangs are basically things that bully the good and fear the evil.

As long as gangs exist, the ones who will be bullied are definitely the people at the bottom of society.

Therefore, there must be no gangs allowed to form in Shanghai.

Ye Yunfei said: "Go find some people and clean up those gangs. Either let them disband their gangs on their own initiative, or get out of Shanghai. There cannot be any gangs in Shanghai."

"If you don't obey, just kill him."

Tan Xiong nodded: "I understand, I will take someone to do it right away."

Ye Yunfei nodded: "Okay, go ahead."

After making the arrangements, Ye Yunfei was about to clean up, and at this time, Tan Xiong said again: "By the way, Brother Fei, I have something else to report to you. During the more than one month you were away, three very beautiful women came to see you."

"Moreover, one of these women has approached you several times."

Three very beautiful women came to me.

Ye Yunfei was stunned for a moment and said, "Which three women?"

There were actually three women who came to see him. Who were they?
