Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

After Deng Yu left, Hu Zhenhua immediately shouted to Qu Xiaodou,

"Call Brother Guo and Ma Weiyuan right now and have all their City Foxes and She Rats mobilize to spread a rumor: In Japan, with just 50 kilograms of rice, you can marry a wife, and with 100 kilograms of rice, you can buy a big house. With just two kilograms of rice, you can recruit a younger brother, and anyone who goes there will become the boss. Also, spread the news that the government is recruiting soldiers from the Qing Gang!"

"Yes!"

Hu Zhenhua thought for a moment and said,

"Order the Mokai District Management Committee to immediately issue a notice. From now on, anyone found engaging in acts of extortion, blackmail, collecting protection money, freeloading, or fraudulent behavior within the jurisdiction will be executed on the spot without trial!"

"Yes!"

After doing all this, Lao Hu felt a lot more relaxed.

On one side, there is high-pressure policy, and on the other side, there is a better life. It depends on your choice!

Hu Zhenhua thought about it and felt that there was still a loophole, so he called two more companies and went straight to the residences of Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng.

To kill a snake, strike at its most vulnerable part; to capture a thief, capture the leader first!

Of course, Hu Zhenhua did not want to arrest them, but to surround their homes to intimidate the Green Gang's minions.

When everyone saw that the leader was surrounded, they would definitely think: Even the boss has been dealt with, the Qing Gang is really finished.

The Huang Mansion, located in the French Concession, covers a large area and is decorated luxuriously and grandly.

The security measures inside are even more airtight, with dozens of bodyguards, bunkers, guard towers, and even the walls of the villa are up to 1 meter thick.

The residence of this Shanghai tycoon is a den of dragons and tigers.

Hu Zhenhua still admires Huang Jinrong.

After the liberation of Shanghai, he did not follow Du Yuesheng to Hong Kong, but stayed there. Hu Zhenhua once saw a photo of him sweeping the street.

Just this frankness deserves the respect of countless people.

After the Huang Mansion was surrounded, there was no chaos inside. Except for a few panicked servants, everything was normal.

Hu Zhenhua sat in the car, quietly looking at the bright lights inside.

Qu Xiaodou observed for a while and asked,

"Boss, do you want to cut off the phone line?"

"That's not necessary. If you're trying to scare the monkey by killing the chicken, you have to wait for the chicken to jump out!"

Qu Xiaodou is a little difficult to understand.

Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. Huang Jinrong is the chicken, and the members of the Green Gang are the monkeys?

Which chicken will jump out!

Five minutes after the Huang Mansion was surrounded, a man who looked like a housekeeper came out.

He leaned forward, bowler hat in hand, and trotted out.

"I don't know which boss is leading the team. This is the Huang Mansion. Is there some misunderstanding?"

Behind him, there were several big men carrying two boxes.

Seeing that no one responded, the butler continued,

"My name is Huang Fu. I still have some influence in the Magic City. Brothers, you have come to the Huang Mansion because of fate. These small gifts are just a token of respect!"

The company commander in charge was called Hao Gang. He took one look at the two large boxes and replied coldly,

"Stop talking nonsense! We're just following orders. We don't know anything! And we can't leave!"

In order to avoid disputes, Liu Yue transferred to Hu Zhenhua this time only field troops, which had nothing to do with the local area in Shanghai.

They don't care who they are, they will shoot as long as they get the order.

Huang Fu saw Hao Gang's murderous face and knew that this was not the garrison of the Magic City. Suddenly, his eyes stopped at the car in the distance and said,

"Boss, can I say hello to the friends in the car?"

Hao Gang did not answer, but turned around and looked away.

This is tacit consent.

Huang Fu immediately trotted over and was three meters away from the car when Qu Xiaodou stopped him and shouted,

"You are not qualified to speak to my husband. Let Huang Jinrong do it himself!"

Huang Fu was also a man who kept his eyes and ears open. After a brief thought, he immediately recognized Qu Xiaodou and said with a smile,

"But Chairman Hu of TA Company is here in person?"

Hu Zhenhua rolled down the car window and said with a smile,

"Let's be frank. Mr. Huang's disciple, Huang Yuantao, sank several of our TA company's ships, causing countless casualties. Now he's gone, so I have no choice but to seek justice for him!"

Huang Fu was terrified and had a smile on his face.

"There must be a misunderstanding here. Our Green Gang started out as a shipbuilder, and sinking a ship is a big taboo!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Zhenhua slowly rolled up the car window. At the moment when the window was completely closed, a cold voice came out.

"Say hello to Boss Huang for me!"

Huang Fu saluted and turned back to the villa area.

This wait lasted for more than an hour. Hu Zhenhua was almost asleep when Qu Xiaodou's voice finally came over.

"Sir, Deputy Mayor Liu is here!"

"Who?"

"Deputy Mayor Liu!"

After Hu Zhenhua confirmed that it was correct, the anger in his heart continued to rise.

In the morning, he asked He Ming to raid the homes of more than a dozen corrupt officials including Deputy Mayor Liu. Now it is night, and that old fox has not taken any action yet!

Before at the Cathay Hotel, Lao Hu felt strange when he saw He Yao, thinking that she was there to surrender.

Hu Zhenhua took a deep breath, took out a pen and paper, and began to write the order: Shoot Deputy Mayor Liu.

To be honest, he was not very willing to face Deputy Mayor Liu directly.

After all, this guy once provided many conveniences to TA's company.

Being grateful and repaying kindness is a fine tradition of the Chinese people.

Someone helped you, but you want to kill him. Who would want to be friends with you in the future?

After writing the order, Hu Zhenhua tore it up again.

Political struggles must also be conducted within certain rules. If people are killed directly, those corrupt officials will gang up on their company in order to protect themselves.

In an instant, Hu Zhenhua felt tired.

While he was still lost in thought, Deputy Mayor Liu had already arrived in front of Lao Hu's car.

Only after Qu Xiaodou's repeated reminders did Hu Zhenhua come down.

Deputy Mayor Liu said with a dark face,

"Boss Hu, you are so impressive!"

Hu Zhenhua also had a cold face and shouted,

"Deputy Mayor Liu, I urge you to stop meddling in other people's business. Recruiting soldiers from the Green Gang is an order from above. This has ruined the Party and the country's cause. I will make sure you pay the price!"

Deputy Mayor Liu was stunned.

The order to recruit soldiers from the Green Gang has currently only been communicated within the military system, and the city government has not yet received any notification.

Deputy Mayor Liu frowned slightly and looked at the officials accompanying him, only to find that they also looked confused!

Although Deputy Mayor Liu couldn't figure out the situation, it didn't stop him from thinking quickly.

"Since this is a conscription, why are you surrounding the Huang Mansion? Could it be that you want Boss Huang to carry the gun?"

Hu Zhenhua spread his hands and said with a smile,

"I'm here to watch the fun. The troops besieging the Huang Mansion is an order from the Ministry of National Defense. If you're dissatisfied, you can protest!"

After saying that, Hu Zhenhua lit a cigarette, leaned against the car body, and smoked leisurely.

Deputy Mayor Liu was even more confused.

That’s not what Huang Jinrong said on the phone.

Deputy Mayor Liu waved his hand and shouted,

"Company commander, please come here!"

Hao Gang trotted over, stopped in front of Deputy Mayor Liu, and saluted.

"Hello, sir!"

"Who gave you the order to surround the Huang Mansion?"

"Orders from the regiment?"

"What's your number?"

"37th Regiment, 24th Division, 144th Army of the National Revolutionary Army!"

Deputy Mayor Liu frowned even deeper. The 144th Regiment was stationed in the suburbs.

"Whose orders did your regiment receive?"

Hao Gang stood straight and said loudly,

"The regiment received orders from the division!"

"Can I see your orders?"

Hao Gang said expressionlessly,

"Sorry, I only received verbal orders from the regiment!"

Deputy Mayor Liu asked again, but still didn't get any useful information.

Hu Zhenhua, the instigator, watched the fun with a smile, watching Deputy Mayor Liu's fun.

He was extremely proud in his heart: Everyone can pass the buck!

If you, Liu Yue, don't show up, don't blame me for pushing everything onto you.

Deputy Mayor Liu turned his attention to Hu Zhenhua again. This time, his attitude was much better, at least he smiled.

"Boss Hu, what did you mean by recruiting soldiers from the Qing Gang?"

Hu Zhenhua's eyes rolled and he immediately had an idea. He decided to tease Deputy Mayor Liu, so he said with a smile,

"The National Army urgently needs reinforcements, but where can they find them? Shanghai is a cosmopolitan city, and its international image is crucial. Arresting civilians is simply not an option! After much deliberation, the Ministry of National Defense officials believe the Green Gang is the most suitable. First, Green Gang members are highly skilled and willing to fight. With a little training, they could become a formidable force. Second, the United States is investing heavily in Shanghai, and this is a major concern. The National Government also wants to improve public security and create a favorable investment environment to attract more foreign investment."

Hu Zhenhua looked at Deputy Mayor Liu meaningfully and hinted,

"Deputy Mayor Liu, didn't the city government issue a notice to rectify the public security in the Mokai District? Why are you asking this question when you already know the answer?"

Hu Zhenhua glanced at Huang Mansion and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"Oh! I see. You're here to persuade Boss Huang, right? If you can get the Green Gang members to voluntarily join the army, it would be a great achievement! With this, you might even be able to enter the sight of the bigwigs in the government!"

Old Hu gave a thumbs up and said sarcastically,

"Everyone says that Vice Mayor Liu is good at scheming, and that's true!"

After hearing this, Deputy Mayor Liu had a clear idea in his mind. He snorted coldly and returned to his car.

He would not disbelieve Hu Zhenhua's words, but he could not believe them completely and had to verify them.

More than half an hour later, Deputy Mayor Liu received two pieces of news: First, the garrison was actively arresting members of the Green Gang, and second, the Mokai District issued a notice to rectify public security!

Deputy Mayor Liu secretly resented: Hu Zhenhua, a businessman, is actually better informed than himself!

And that bastard Deputy Mayor Lin, who turned from a country chicken into a phoenix, was actually asked by the higher-ups to preside over the Magic Development Zone, while he himself was completely marginalized!

hateful!

After being sulking for a while, Deputy Mayor Liu decided to change the status quo.

He got out of the car again and walked towards the Huang Mansion.

More than a hundred meters away, Hu Zhenhua was sitting at a roadside stall eating wontons.

Qu Xiaodou suddenly reminded,

"Boss, look, the man surnamed Liu is walking towards the Huang Mansion."

Hu Zhenhua quickly swallowed a wonton whole, then looked up in the direction of Huang Mansion.

"The wind is rustling and the water is cold. A strong man will never return once he is gone!"

Qu Xiaodou grinned and laughed happily.

"Boss, you've screwed another victim. If I were Huang Jinrong, I'd at least give Liu a slap in the face!"

Hu Zhenhua's face darkened and he shouted,

"Even wontons can't shut you up! When have I ever cheated anyone? He jumped into it himself!"

……

Before Hu Zhenhua finished his bowl of wontons, Deputy Mayor Liu came out with a gloomy face.

He quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and went to greet him.

Just now, he and Qu Xiaodou made a bet about whether Deputy Mayor Liu would be slapped.

Qu Xiaodou was faster and knew the result before Hu. Looking at his excited expression, Hu Zhenhua knew he had lost.
