Perhaps because the client was the richest man in Hong Kong, Citibank was very efficient.

Just at noon, Green personally wrote three large checks for He Dong, with amounts of ten million, thirty million and five hundred million respectively.

With such a big deal in hand, Green couldn't stop smiling, and he warmly invited He Dong to have lunch together.

However, He Dong politely declined, as he had made an appointment for lunch with the US Consul, Weidman.

After leaving Citibank, Long Fei told He Dong that a man surnamed Shen would contact him soon and he could ask him to give him the check.

In addition, Long Fei told He Dong that he would be in charge of handling the purchase of the island with the full authority of the 30 million US dollars.

Because he was eager to return to Shanghai to avenge the fallen Jiaolong Commando members, Long Fei did not plan to stay in Hong Kong any longer.

Holding a check for ten million US dollars, Long Fei bid farewell to He Dong and prepared to board a ship overnight to return to Shanghai.

However, before leaving, Long Fei found Zhuang Shiping and handed him the ten million dollar check.

"Mr. Long, what is the meaning of this ten million US dollars?"

Long Fei said sincerely, "I heard that Mr. Zhuang has always wanted to open a bank. You helped me this time, so I'd like to return the favor and help you out in return."

"This ten million US dollars should be enough for you to start the banking project. I just hope that Mr. Zhuang can always uphold the ideal of loving the country and serving the nation, and continue to do his best for the construction and development of China in the future."

Zhuang Shiping never expected that Long Fei's so-called reciprocation would be like this. At this moment, he was not only excited but also deeply moved.

“Mr. Long, this amount of money is far too much. I feel unworthy of it.”

"Based on your patriotic fervor and past contributions, you deserve it and are worthy of it. We're all grown men, so stop passing the buck."

Zhuang Shiping wiped away the tears that had rolled down his cheeks, nodded, and took the check.

"Thank you, Mr. Long. I will always remember your teachings and will never let you down."

"Furthermore, consider this money as an investment from your Dragon Flame Legion. Whether you recover the principal and interest in the future, or continue to invest for returns, is up to you."

Long Fei didn't want to get entangled with Zhuang Shiping on this issue any further, so he nodded.

"Alright, do as you please, I have no objections. I have urgent business to attend to back in Shanghai, so let's say goodbye here. Take care, and see you later."

"Okay, Mr. Long, have a safe journey, and see you again."

Three days later, Long Fei and his two companions arrived in Shanghai.

Before boarding the ship, Long Fei sent a telegram to Shen Tunan, so at this time, Shen Tunan and Wei Ruolai were already on the cruise ship bound for Hong Kong.

Long Fei and his two companions arrived at the underground intelligence headquarters in Shanghai, where the head of the Jiaolong Action Team was already waiting.

The person in charge was named Gong Shu. He had no connections or backing in the Military Intelligence Bureau, so he had never been appreciated or promoted.

But Long Fei once told Zheng Yaoxian that there was a man named Gong Shu in the Military Intelligence Bureau who was a talented person, and asked him to find a way to get him under his command and train him properly.

After the acting director died, the Military Intelligence Bureau was reorganized into the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and Zheng Yaoxian followed Long Fei's instructions.

He told Gong Shu that there was no future in working for the National Government and that he should leave the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and go to seek refuge with Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi.

Gong Shu was initially reluctant, but he greatly admired Zheng Yaoxian and had no choice but to listen to his sixth brother.

Furthermore, Gong Shu heard that Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi, since joining Long Fei, had not only gained full trust but also been given important positions.

Moreover, the Longyan Legion had a distinguished record of killing Japanese soldiers and its reputation was widespread, which made Gong Shu admire them greatly. Therefore, he finally made up his mind to come and join Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi.

Originally, Song and Zhao would definitely have needed Long Fei's approval before daring to let Gong Shu join.

Unexpectedly, after sending a telegram to Long Fei for instructions, Long Fei simply told them to decide for themselves, saying that he had no objections.

Thus, Gong Shu became Long Fei's subordinate and a member of the Longyan Legion.

Long Fei did this because he admired Gong Shu's loyalty and wanted to save him and change his tragic fate.

Of course, we also hope to change his thinking and political stance, and turn him to the side of justice and righteousness.

Gong Shu lived up to expectations, planning meticulously and acting decisively in commanding various operations, achieving victory in every battle.

Long Fei looked at Gong Shu standing in front of him, patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Gong Shu, tell us the latest situation first."

"Yes, Commander. After receiving Director Song's telegram, I immediately dispatched my team to secretly monitor several bigwigs of the Green Gang."

"This Ji Yunqing has long secretly sided with the Japanese. He recently took a fancy to a singer at the Xianlesi Nightclub, so he goes there every night to drink and have fun."

"Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng have rarely gone out recently. They have not colluded with the Japanese or done anything for them. They still have some conscience and the backbone of the Chinese people."

"There's also Zhang Xiaolin, who openly betrayed the Japanese and helped them commit countless atrocities; he was a die-hard traitor."

"He knew that many people wanted to kill him, so he usually stayed in his residence in the French Concession."

Long Fei shook his head and said, "Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng only show that they have some national integrity, but they have done a lot of bad things. Although they are not traitors, they are complete villains."

"However, this time our revenge operation can exclude the two of them."

"This time, we will eliminate the two major traitors, Ji Yunqing and Zhang Xiaolin, to avenge our fallen brothers and rid the country and nation of this scourge."

At this moment, Song Xiaoan reminded him with some concern.

"Commander, both of these men reside in the concessions of Gaul, and the Cinque Teresa nightclub is also located within the international concession."

"If we take action within the concession, I'm afraid the French and the military and police within the International Settlement will intervene."

Long Fei sneered: "What's there to be afraid of? The Gallic Rooster is just a weakling. If it dares to cause trouble, I'll take care of it too."

Since Long Fei had already said so, Song Xiaoan and the other two no longer raised any objections. Now it was time to formulate a specific action plan.

Long Fei already had the plan in mind: "This revenge operation is codenamed Operation Cloud Laughter, and the specific plan is as follows..."

After hearing Long Fei's plan, the three of them couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

Gong Shu exclaimed, "Commander, your plan is too domineering! I will personally cut off that bastard Jiang Yunqing's head to avenge my brothers."

Immediately afterwards, Song Xiaoan called Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng, inviting them to dinner at the Peace Hotel at 7 p.m. that evening.

Faced with Song Xiaoan's invitation, even though Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng were powerful figures in the Shanghai Green Gang, they dared not refuse.

The two men knew that Song Xiaoan was backed by the Longyan Legion. They could ignore the Japanese, but they dared not offend the Longyan Legion.

Now, not only in China and Japan, but the whole world knows that the Dragon Flame Legion is an army that repays kindness with kindness and is decisive in killing.

Moreover, the two had analyzed the situation and both believed that the Japanese devils' triumph would not last long.

Therefore, they dared not offend the Dragon Flame Legion, because with the strength of the Dragon Flame Legion, they might attack Shanghai at any time.

If you offend them, you might find yourself crying and unable to find your grave.

At 6:30, Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng met up and arrived at the Peace Hotel ahead of time.

Upon learning that Song Xiaoan had not yet arrived, the two did not dare to go into the private room to wait, but instead chose to sit and wait in the hotel lobby.

At 6:50, Song Xiaoan and his group of four finally entered the hotel and came into view of Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng.
