Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Ye Yunfei said: "Then you'd better stop talking. I'm leaving. You can have a good chat with the people in the prison."

Ye Yunfei turned and left.

He was too lazy to waste his time on this kind of rubbish.

"I said, I said."

Seeing that Ye Yunfei was really going to leave, Hu Chun became anxious and immediately shouted.

He knew that if Ye Yunfei left, he would be beaten to death by the people in the prison.

Now that Ye Yunfei is here, he still has a chance to survive. Once Ye Yunfei leaves, he will definitely die.

Moreover, it was a very tragic death.

Ye Yunfei stopped and said, "Then tell me."

Hu Chun said: "What I want to say is that Jiufang Guild Hall is not a normal business organization. In fact, Jiufang Guild Hall is secretly doing a lot of illegal business."

"These include smuggling arms, trafficking in opium, and gathering intelligence."

"Depending on these businesses, the Jiufang Guild Hall will develop rapidly and become the largest commercial organization in the Republic of China."

Ye Yunfei said: "Is this all you want to talk about? If that's all, then you really disappoint me."

"I have already investigated everything you said. I might as well tell you that my people have already sealed off the Jiufang Guild Hall. Not just the Jiufang Guild Hall in Shanghai, but all the Jiufang Guild Halls in the entire Republic of China."

"So, what you told me is useless."

Hu Chun looked at Ye Yunfei in shock and said, "You have only captured me for less than half a day, and you have already investigated all these things. Are you kidding me?"

The affairs of the Jiufang Guild were handled in a very secretive manner, and generally speaking, it was impossible for them to be discovered.

Moreover, they have been doing this for so many years and have never been discovered.

Unexpectedly, today, just half a day after he was arrested, Longmen had already investigated the Jiufang Guild Hall thoroughly.

Hu Chun was very shocked.

Ye Yunfei stared at Hu Chun and said, "You underestimate the intelligence gathering capabilities of Longmen. It is easy for us to investigate your Jiufang Guild Hall in half a day."

"Okay, if that's all you want to say, forget it. I'm too lazy to listen anymore. I'm leaving."

Ye Yunfei turned and left.

"Also, I have something else to say."

At this time, Hu Chun spoke loudly again.

Ye Yunfei looked at him and said, "You still have something to say, what? You are not making it up to deceive me, are you?"

"I'm telling you, I'm not a fool. I can tell if you're making it up, and I'll make you go to see the King of Hell early."

Hu Chun said: "It's not made up, it's true. What's more, what I'm going to say now is more important than before."

"You must want to know."

Ye Yunfei said: "What's the matter? Tell me."

Hu Chun looked around and said, "This matter is too important. I suggest that you call everyone else out and leave only you and me. This way, it will be better for me to tell you."

"Otherwise, if other people knew about it, it might bring you trouble."

"Everything I said is true, but I don't mean to fool you. It depends on whether you believe it or not."

Ye Yunfei frowned and stared at Hu Chun. After a few glances, he said to Hou Lai beside him: "Hou Lai, tell all your people to get out."

Hou Lai frowned and said, "Brother Fei, let's all go out and leave only you and him. Nothing will happen, right?"

"Hu Chun is extremely cunning. He asked us to leave, so there is a high possibility that he has some conspiracy."

Ye Yunfei laughed and said, "Let alone one Hu Chun, even if there were a hundred Hu Chuns here, they wouldn't be able to do anything to me."

"So, you can go out without worry, it's okay, let me hear what he wants to tell me."

Hearing this, Hou Lai had no choice but to say, "Okay, Brother Fei, let's go out first."

Afterwards, Hou Lai took everyone else in the prison out.

Only Ye Yunfei and Hu Chun were left in prison.

"Go ahead."

Ye Yunfei said: "If you can't explain it today, I will peel off your skin."

Hu Chun said: "Ye Yunfei, your Longmen is so huge, and the army is so large, what is the most lacking?"

Ye Yunfei didn't expect Hu Chun to ask this question. He frowned and said, "Why do you care what Longmen lacks? Does it have anything to do with what you want to say?"

Hu Chun said: "It is related, and it is a very big relationship."

"I know that your Longmen has nearly a million people. It is very difficult for your Longmen to feed so many people."

"Because the situation in the Republic of China is chaotic now, many people are very poor, and you can't collect taxes at all."

"It's hard to support so many people just by relying on Longmen's current income."

"So, you are most in need of money now, right?"

Ye Yunfei looked at Hu Chun and said, "You are right. I am indeed short of money now, so what."

"What does it have to do with you."

Hu Chun was silent for a while before he said, "I can give you a gold mine. With this gold mine, it will definitely greatly alleviate your Longmen's funding shortage problem, and even help you recruit soldiers."

"How about it? My sincerity is enough, right?"

gold mine.

Hearing Hu Chun say these two words, Ye Yunfei's eyes suddenly condensed, and said: "Where does the gold mine come from? How can there be a gold mine?"

Hu Chun said: "Since you have investigated all the information about my Jiufang Guild Hall, you should also know that our Jiufang Guild Hall is also engaged in the mining business."

"We have professional personnel who go all over the country to search for various minerals. Over the years, we have found many good mines, such as coal, iron, and silicon."

"We made a lot of money with these mines."

"But if you want to talk about real money-making, it's definitely a gold mine."

Ye Yunfei stared at Hu Chun and said, "You found a gold mine."

Hu Chun said: "Yes, although we are looking for minerals all over the country, gold mines are extremely rare. Sometimes you can't find them just by looking for them. It depends more on luck."

"We were lucky this time. Our Jiufang Guild Hall members accidentally discovered a gold mine while searching for minerals in a place in the Central Plains."

"This gold mine is buried hundreds of meters underground and is very difficult to find. Our people discovered this gold mine based on their experience and special instruments."

"According to preliminary exploration, there is a lot of gold stored in this gold mine. If it can be mined, it can definitely be sold for a good price."

After saying this, Hu Chun looked at Ye Yunfei and said, "How about it, Ye Yunfei, this news I told you is okay, right?"

Ye Yunfei's heart was beating.

If there really is a gold mine, it would definitely be a great thing.

Longmen is indeed in need of money everywhere now, and there is a huge funding gap.

Now we are indeed in a state of spending more than we earn.

If we could get a gold mine at this time, it would be great news...
