Chapter 405 Shanghai Turmoil

Clang, clang.

Accompanied by the whistling of a steam locomotive, the train slowly pulled into the Shanghai station.

After the crowd gradually dispersed, Ye Shaohong, Yu Manli, and Li Yunlong came out carrying their suitcases.

Unlike the orderly city of Nanjing, Shanghai in this era can be best described in two words.

That's modern.

Looking around, you can see many things that you wouldn't find elsewhere, and many imported goods everywhere in Shanghai.

For example, foreigners, tuxedos, neon lights...

Behind this prosperity lies endless darkness and evil.

someone said.

Hong Kong in the 1970s and 80s was chaotic and disorderly; one in ten Hong Kong residents was a member of a triad society.

The situation in Shanghai today is even more severe than in Hong Kong in the 1970s and 80s.

Outside the station and dock, people carrying bags, doing accounting, rickshaw pullers, newsstands, newspaper boys, and even shoe repairmen all had to join gangs or societies to make a living on this land.

Putting aside other things, Du Asheng's Hengshe alone had over 100,000 members at its peak.

This is also why Dai Yunong wanted to form the Loyal and Patriotic Army and why he personally went to Shanghai to visit him.

Despite being a triad boss, Du Asheng was indeed patriotic.

After learning from Dai Yunong that a major battle was inevitable, he waved his hand and issued an order, resulting in 8,000 men from the Hengshe community joining the army. He also provided Dai Yunong with more than 5,000 light and heavy firearms.

Resources such as medicines, food, vehicles, and telephones are countless.

This is why Du Asheng immediately moved his entire family away from Shanghai after the city fell.

The Japanese hate him.

I hate them to the core.

After the fall of Shanghai, if Du Asheng had stayed in Shanghai, his fate would likely have been even more tragic than Huang Jinrong's.

They are absolutely doomed to die.

With these thoughts in mind, Ye Shaohong and the other two walked out of the station.

Then Li Yunlong simply turned around and left.

He has his own hidden identity and his own place to stay, so he doesn't need to travel with Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli.

Ye Shaohong and his companions did not immediately return home. Instead, they took a rickshaw and went together to the Tongfuli Triangle Area.

Yu Manli wanted to get her rouge shop back.

On the way, Ye Shaohong bought a pound of pig's head meat and a pot of Xinghuacun wine, then staggered directly to the Sanjiaodi vegetable market.

He kicked open the door to Xu Tian's office.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Every time you come over, you have to make such a fuss?"

The loud bang from the door made Xu Tian, ​​who was busy settling accounts, look up. When he saw that it was Ye Shaohong, he immediately frowned.

"It's better to make a big fuss."

"That way no one will eavesdrop."

Ye Shaohong laughed, then turned to look at the office next door, where a woman in her thirties or forties was nodding at him with a sheepish smile. Noticing Ye Shaohong's teasing gaze, the woman muttered a few words in a low voice, then turned and left.

Only then did Ye Shaohong step into Xu Tian's office.

He placed the cooked food and wine he was carrying on the table.

"Ouch."

"You've really gone all out."

Xu Tian is a bit aloof, but that depends on the person. Through so much time together, he has become familiar with Ye Shaohong.

She no longer resisted Ye Shaohong's arrival.

He got up, first putting all the account documents on the table into the drawer, and then taking out two wine cups and two pairs of chopsticks from the bookcase and placing them directly on the table.

"Is everything settled?"

"Yes, it's resolved." "The harvest was quite good, so I came here today specifically to thank you."

Ye Shaohong pulled out a chair and sat opposite Xu Tian. With a flick of his wrist, a dagger appeared in his palm.

After a few quick swings, the pig's head meat was cut up and neatly arranged on the oil paper.

"Oh dear, it's flawed."

"You've ruined the perfectly good pig's head meat, making it smell fishy."

Xu Tian shook his head and sighed with regret.

"Hey, you don't have to eat it."

"If you don't eat them, they're all mine."

Ye Shaohong didn't care whether the pig's head meat was stained with blood or not. He picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of meat with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"What are you thinking?" "You've received so many benefits, and you're only going to treat me to a meal of wine and meat? That's already going too far."

"You want me to not eat?"

Xu Tian pursed his lips, but didn't rush to act immediately. Instead, he opened the wine pot, poured wine for the two of them, and then picked up the wine cup and held it to his nose, taking a light sniff.

"Eight years old".

"Not bad, at least you still have some conscience."

With a tilt of his head back, the fine wine in the cup entered his mouth. Xu Tian savored it carefully for a while, then reached out and picked up his chopsticks, plucked a piece of the pig's head from the nose, and put it in his mouth.

His ears trembled slightly, as if he were listening to something.

After a while.

Xu Tiancai tapped the table with his hand, and as if casually recounting the events that had occurred during the few days Ye Shaohong had been away from Shanghai. The first thing...

The dispute between the Sasun family and the Japanese has come to an end.

With the mediation of the British Concession Municipal Council, the two sides eventually came to the negotiating table.

Xu Tian didn't know what they agreed on, but he knew one thing: after the negotiations, the Sha Xun family withdrew the assassins they had sent out.

It's no longer targeting Japanese people.

Japan paid a price for this; the captain of the Japanese concession's military police was replaced.

The former captain committed suicide by disembowelment at his home due to a serious mistake.

Um…….

In other words, they went to lick the locusts to serve them.

The newly appointed captain of the military police was an elderly man from mainland Japan named Fujita Kazumasa. Accompanying him was the new head of the Special Higher Police.

It turned out to be a woman.

Her name is Mieko Sakai.

However, this woman also has some problems. She was originally very beautiful, but for some reason, half of her face is now ruined.

It was covered in burn marks.

It was precisely because of this that the new head of the Special Higher Police, Mieko Sakai, did something extremely crazy as soon as she took office. She actually arranged for her team members to enter the British and French concessions, seemingly to search for someone.

Furthermore, for some unknown reason, the more than thirty traitors, corrupt officials, and gang members whose homes had been burglarized suddenly launched a joint attack on Zhang Xiaolin, one of the three bigwigs in Shanghai.

Together they pressured Zhang Xiaolin to hand over the thief who had come to steal from his home.

They also mobilized forces from all sides to make things difficult for Zhang Xiaolin's forces, and in just a few days, they caused more than half of Zhang Xiaolin's forces to be destroyed.

This prompted Zhang Xiaolin to overturn the table during the meeting of the three leaders.

At the same time, a kill order was issued in Shanghai, with a reward of 100,000 silver dollars for the capture of the thief who broke into the house.

Several days have passed, and there are still no clues.

Zhang Xiaolin was furious.

Another piece of news is that the owner of the Cinque Terre in the French Concession has changed. Previously, it was controlled by Seventh Master, a protégé of Zhang Xiaolin.

With the help of Zhang Xiaolin and Lao Liao, the detective chief of the Mai Lan Police Station, he was quite powerful in the French Concession for a time.

Three days earlier, his vehicle was attacked by gunmen on the road.

He died instantly at the hands of the assassin. Now, the new leader of Xianles is a newcomer named Zhuang Yifan!
