Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

"How do you want to solve this matter? Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

Zhu Runjiu held a cigarette in his mouth and glanced at Ye Yunfei with squinted eyes. There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Ye Yunfei was relatively calm and said, "Uncle Jiu, I have heard a little about your relationship with Jin Dazhong, but it has nothing to do with me."

"Kim Dae-jung rode on my head and shit on me, and he wanted to kill me. I killed him and took his territory just to protect myself."

"If Uncle Jiu wants to cause trouble for me because of this, I'm afraid I won't be able to accept it."

"Uncle Jiu is from the police station, so he should be fair and just. Now that Lido is in my hands, I run it legally and have not violated any law. Uncle Jiu, it seems that you have no right to do anything to Lido."

Zhu Runjiu said coldly: "You also know that I am from the patrol station. Lido is in your hands now. Whether Lido has violated the law or not is entirely up to me."

"I said he broke the law, so he broke the law. You don't have any right to quibble, understand?"

Ye Yunfei stared at Zhu Runjiu and said, "So, Uncle Jiu is going to frame me, Lidu."

"There's a saying that goes, 'If you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext.' You're the deputy chief inspector of the police station. If you want to force a charge on Lido, it'll be easy for you."

"But I won't accept it."

"I, Ye Yunfei, have been in Shanghai for a while. Now I am not someone that everyone can bully. So, please consider it carefully before making a decision, Uncle Jiu."

Ye Yunfei's voice has gradually become colder.

This Lao Jiu is obviously here to cause trouble this time.

Since you're here to cause trouble, there's no need to be polite.

His foundation is not stable now, and he does not want to make enemies with these top figures in Shanghai, especially since Lao Jiu is the deputy chief inspector of the police station, it would be a bit troublesome to offend him.

So, he has always been polite.

But Zhu Runjiu kept pressing forward.

If pushed to the limit, it's not a bad idea to just become the ninth one.

He doesn't cause trouble, but he's not afraid of trouble either. If you dare to touch him now, just try it.

Zhu Runjiu also heard the unfriendly tone in Ye Yunfei's words. He said, "Ye Yunfei, I didn't come here to cause trouble for you today. I came here to ask for an explanation."

"You killed my men and robbed my territory. You have to give me an explanation. Otherwise, how can I, Lao Jiu, survive in Shanghai in the future?"

Ye Yunfei said: "Okay, then Uncle Jiu, tell me what you want. Tell me first."

Zhu Runjiu said: "It's very simple for me to say. When Jin Dazhong was here, 50% of Lido's monthly income was given to me. Now Jin Dazhong is dead, and you have replaced Jin Dazhong. It's a done deal, and I don't want to say any more nonsense."

"You will do the same as Jin Dazhong. You will give me 50% of Lido's profits in the future. Then, all the previous things will be written off. You can still run your Lido, and I will not come to you again. You just need to pay me on time."

Fifty percent of Lido's profits.

Ye Yunfei's eyes were cold. This old guy had a really big appetite.

Lido is one of the most profitable theaters in Shanghai, with monthly revenue of at least hundreds of thousands.

This old guy wants half of Lido's profits, which is pure blackmail.

Ye Yunfei said: "Uncle Jiu, half of the profit is probably a bit too much."

"I just occupied Lido, and you want half of Lido's business. What's the difference between this and shitting on my head?"

"If I give you half of Lido's profits, why would I spend so much effort to rob Lido? Wouldn't it be better to guard my dock in Zhabei and make money?"

Zhu Runjiu said: "The previous Jin Dazhong was also half. Now I charge you the same amount as him. Is there any problem?"

"Besides, the boss of that place in Shanghai Beach didn't give me Lao Jiu as a gift, so he asked for half of yours, which is not much."

Ye Yunfei said coldly: "I am not Jin Dazhong, let alone your subordinate. Jin Dazhong can give you half, but I can't."

"Uncle Jiu, since you are here today, I will not waste words and tell you directly that if you want to make extra money, I can give it to you. From now on, I will give you 20,000 yuan every month as a token of my appreciation to you, Uncle Jiu."

"But if Uncle Nine wants half of my Lido's profits, that's impossible."

After all, Lao Jiu is from the police station, so he still needs to be taken care of.

However, if this old guy still asks for an exorbitant amount, don't blame him for being rude.

Now he has done his utmost, it all depends on whether this old man knows how to behave.

When Zhu Runjiu heard Ye Yunfei's words, he said gloomily, "Twenty thousand dollars, boy, are you sending away beggars?"

"Do you think I, Lao Jiu, am someone who is short of the 20,000 yuan?"

"Since we have come to this, I will tell you frankly that without my support, your Lido will not be able to survive in Shanghai for even a day."

"I can close your Lido anytime, anywhere. Besides, there are many gang leaders out there who are eyeing Lido."

"There are a lot of people who want to give me half of the proceeds to get Lido."

"I'm giving you face by telling you half of it. Don't be shameless."

Ye Yunfei said coldly: "Then I will tell you clearly, Laojiu, calling you Uncle Jiu is also giving you face."

"Don't go too far. I've just established myself in Lido and don't want to cause any trouble. But if you want to shit on me, I won't be polite."

"Also, I'll tell you one thing. You can do whatever you want while wearing this skin, but if you take it off, I won't recognize you as anything."

"It's best to keep your eyes open when you sleep at night, to avoid someone blowing your head off."

As soon as Ye Yunfei said this, everyone in the hall was shocked.

Ye Yunfei's words were tantamount to going against Lao Jiu.

I'm afraid there are few people in Shanghai who dare to talk to Lao Jiu like this.

Zhu Runjiu was also stunned for a moment, then he nodded: "Okay, very good. I have been in Shanghai for so many years, but this is the first time I have been humiliated in person."

"Ye Yunfei, wait for me."

After saying that, Zhu Runjiu turned and left.

The group of patrolmen under his command also followed him.

Ye Yunfei took a deep puff of his cigarette, stared at Zhu Runjiu's back, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Today, I have completely fallen out with Zhu Runjiu.

In this case, we can't be polite to this old guy.

Find some time and make this old thing.

Anyway, no one can stop him in Shanghai, and whoever dares to go against him will die.

What can the deputy chief inspector of the police station do? If you anger him, you will die anyway.

Just as Ye Yunfei was thinking, a group of people rushed in from outside the Lido door.
