A film series in the Republic of China: The legendary Taoist priest in Shanghai

Upon asking, I found out that Jin Zhaoliang was quite capable.

He joined the Green Gang at the age of nineteen. He was brave enough to fight and kill, and he was also quite skilled in martial arts.

The main reason for my poor performance is my health. I often have to be hospitalized due to anemia.

So even though he’s almost thirty years old, he still hasn’t managed to get a position as a small boss.

But this person has been in the gang for quite some time and is very familiar with gang affairs.

In short, five words can be used to describe the feeling of being depressed and frustrated.

"Very good, I have several casinos, come and help me manage them, and I will give you two hundred dollars a month."

Before Jin Zhaoliang agreed, Jin Zhaoli said, "Okay, brother, you have to work hard for the young master in the future."

"You don't mind me being sick."

"Haha, everyone in this world has some problems. Just do your job for me and show some skills."

Jin Zhaoliang thought about it and agreed.

Anyway, his sister was also "working" for him, so they were considered family, and being an axeman in the Green Gang was much better.

Besides, there have been rumors within the gang recently that Boss Feng is colluding with the Japanese, and many aspiring members of the Green Gang have quit the gang.

Although Jin Zhaoliang was in a poor state, he was patriotic at heart and disdained to become a traitor's running dog.

The Green Gang was quite lenient towards small gangsters like Jin Zhaoliang. If they left the gang, they would leave. If they didn't gather for a few days, the leader would just ignore them.

Unlike the rough gangs like the fist gang, the boss gang and the hall master gang, they have to give an explanation if they leave the gang.

After Jin Zhaoliang left, Wencai took Jin Zhaoli back to the room.

"Come here and tell me about your pretty boy. What's the matter with Mr. Sheng?"

"I have nothing to do with him, really. When you were with him, you didn't test..."

"Is he handsome?"

"This is okay."

Looking at Jin Zhaoliang's shy appearance, Wencai had already guessed the result.

He must be a handsome guy.

The male protagonists in dramas during the Republic of China are all handsome and stylish. Although I haven't watched Jin Zhaoli's drama during the Republic of China, I can tell with my brain that the male lead who matches Jin Zhaoli must be a popular idol.

"Humph, I was also someone who almost wore Xu Wenqiang, but I am also the male lead. Uncle Jiu has to play a supporting role for me. My female lead Tingting is no worse than Jin Zhaoli. What a pretty boy, your female lead has become my Wencai's. I want people, not their hearts."

When Wencai thought about it this way, he felt relieved.

When he first traveled through time, he was always bothered by the literary talent of Lao Chou.

Now he thinks Wencai is better than Wenqiang.

First of all, Xu Wenqiang has no one to leverage on except Fang Yanyun.

Wencai also has Uncle Jiu and Zhegu, and he has Maoshan behind him.

If something really happens and Uncle Nine and his aunt come to Shanghai, that gambling addict Qiu Daqian will be finished in minutes.

Besides, if you think about it carefully, apart from being old and ugly, the hardware is quite good.

He is strong and powerful, knows some simple Mao techniques, and has the basic knowledge of Maoshan practice.

Although Xu Wenqiang also went to college, how could he learn the literary talent system before traveling through time and space, and then go to college in Heping Adulthood?

In short, being handsome is actually not as good as being strong.

If there is no system, if he can get the Holy Body of Literature in real time and sneak into Shanghai, he will probably be much more useful than Xu Wenqiang.

Seeing that Wencai stopped talking, Jin Zhaoli didn't know what he was thinking and thought he was jealous and angry, so she immediately pounced on Wencai and pressed him under her.

"Has it been washed?"

"washed."

……

The literary talent is endless.

Because her brother was given a job, Jin Zhaoli became more proactive and was no longer a passive participant.

Sometimes the goddess' heart is also obtained as follows.

I would probably be happier if I played games with a kind-hearted goddess like Yiping.

....................................

A day's plan begins in the morning, but there is almost no one in the casino in the morning.

Just like Internet cafes, the peak season is in the afternoon and evening.

Jin Zhaoliang was arranged to manage two casinos, and Xu Bada introduced his sister Xu Batong to work there.

Xu Batong is in his fifties and is also a con man, whose cheating skills are even better than Xu Batong's.

Even stronger than Ding Youtian and Ding Youdi.

Wencai also gave Xu Batong the management rights of two casinos.

The remaining six casinos are managed by Wencai and Xu Bada.

Fortunately, we just offended Boss Feng, and the underworld is temporarily calm. The reputation of the Maoshan God of Gamblers has spread throughout Shanghai, and no one from the Qianmen is causing trouble.

There was even a person from the Qianmen Sect who came to surrender.

This person is Jiang Zhong, the Shadowless Hand, who comes to Sihai to challenge for the first time.

In fact, Jiang Zhong is quite strong, but since he lost last time, he has been idled by Jin Yaju, the leader of the Qing Gang on Sizhao Road.

Jiang Zhong was also aloof and arrogant, so he decided to join Wencai.

Knowing that his disciple Jiang Zhong, the King of Conspiracy, had surrendered to Wencai, Jin Yaju did not take it seriously.

A useless boy, just left.

Besides, the Qing Gang has something to say, so don't provoke Wencai in public for the time being.

Wencai found out that Jiang Zhong was earning a fixed monthly interest of twelve thousand yuan working for Jin Yaju.

He only gave Jiang Zhong one thousand, not to take the opportunity to lower the price, but to give him a high salary because he was afraid that Jiang Zhong would become arrogant because of his talent.

Start by giving a basic salary so that you can increase the salary later.

The salary is 2,000 yuan at the beginning, and there is no way to increase it even if you do well later.

Jiang Zhong didn't care about the loss of two hundred dollars, but was overjoyed.

Because Wencai gave him the management rights of two casinos, he could officially print the title of "Manager of a certain casino" on his business card.

For a young con man like Jiang Zhong, fame is more important than money.

Although he earned two hundred yuan more under Jin Yaju, he had no name or power, and did not even have a sinecure.

Compared with the Qianmen brothers in his circle, Jiang Zhonghui kept his head lowered.

The others are all casino managers, he is just a idler kept by the Green Gang, a dog.

In Qianmen Gambling House, the casino is equivalent to the territory. The Qianwang who has no territory is just a Qianmen follower who is not in the mainstream, a small-time gangster who does odd jobs everywhere, similar to the former Xu Bada.

Now that he has the land and saves two hundred yuan, Jiang Zhong feels that it is a progress.

For a trickster, a trickster with decent skills, two hundred yuan is really not a lot of money.

He could just take a day off and go to another province to gamble and easily make a few thousand dollars.

What he cares about is reputation and territory.

…………

"It's hard not to sigh when you lose your temper for a while."

"It's hard not to be daunted when you're down and out."

During the day, in the Grand Shanghai Ballroom, Hong Mudan, wearing a fiery red dress and flaming red lips, attracted Wencai's attention.

Compared with the older lady style of Feng Chengcheng and Ren Tingting, and the pure student style of Yiping and Fang Yu.

The pure style of red peony gives Wencai a sense of freshness.

"Red Peony is really good. I'll find a chance to raise it with Jin Zhaoli."

Wencai was smoking a cigarette and shaking the glass of red wine in his hand.

Now he was wearing a suit with a toilet head that had been carefully modified and designed by a famous Parisian designer, and pointed calfskin white leather shoes, giving him the air of an old capitalist from the old society and a newly-risen boss on the Shanghai Beach.

This kind of new boss is just right for a nightclub like Red Peony with a pure desire style.

Shuhuan has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is an elite talent, which is just right for Yiping.

Xu Wenqiang's melancholy and vicissitudes of life are a perfect match for Feng Chengcheng's student-like and young lady style.

Red Peony is now singing "Only by working hard can you succeed". This song is the one that Wencai sang all over the streets when he was a child in his previous life.

It’s inspiring and easy to sing, and the lyrics are profound yet understandable to the general public.

It’s just like Bai Juyi’s poems, which can be understood by even old ladies, but they contain the truth of life.

In the Republic of China, music composition is now divided into two extreme schools.

One group is the old guard from the Qing Dynasty, whose works are abstruse and difficult to understand. The lyrics are like eight-legged essays, and you can’t understand them without ten years of hard study.

This kind of song has old lyrics and the melody is like a monk chanting sutras. The old lyrics fit in with the classics, just like an old lady's foot binding.

One is the new school, which specializes in making decadent music, always talking about men, women and love. The songs are so tacky and corny, or have perverse values like the smoking songs.
