When the flag bearers at the entrance of the Ge Lao Hall in Shancheng heard that the military commander asked them to help sweep the Chongli Society, there was an uproar and discussions broke out.
It's one thing to cooperate with the government, but it's another thing to help the government kill fellow sect members. This will be stabbed in the spine by Comrade Qiu Hu.
"Bang!"
The man who first asked Sun Renyi slammed the table, stood up and roared: "In my dreams, even if I am beaten to death or shot by your military commander, I will never betray my brothers!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other Zhangqi seemed to have found their backbone and stood up to express their stance.
"Yes! I will never kill my fellow disciples!"
"Farewell!"
"Sun Renyi, you are unkind and unrighteous."
Being reprimanded by so many former friends and classmates, Sun Renyi looked ugly. If he couldn't handle this matter well, he would stop hanging out in the mountain city in the future.
He quickly looked at Gu Qi, hoping that the other party would come forward to explain something, at least not to put all the blame on his head.
Gu Qi looked at the messy scene in front of him quietly, put his hand in front of his mouth and yawned, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, they were really a bunch of people.
Although these people were shouting loudly, no one dared to take a step beyond the bounds. They just said they wanted to leave but didn't move their feet. It was obvious that they wanted to bargain through pressure.
But what they didn’t understand is that what the government gives you is yours, and what the government doesn’t give you can’t take it by force. No matter how powerful Ge Laohui is, can he defeat an army of millions of people?
Wu Chunyang also drank the tea with a calm expression, as if he didn't hear the noise in his ears. Not only was he not angry in his heart, he even felt like laughing.
If the deputy seat hadn't asked them to speak well, he would have "released" Youguang a long time ago. Some people just can't get used to it, otherwise they will never learn to speak well.
"cough."
A gentle cough came from the back hall, Gu Qi's face straightened, and his cold and sharp eyes pierced the eyes of those present.
Perhaps thinking of the consequences of being targeted by the military commander, the originally indignant flag bearers slowly stopped making noises and sat down with their heads shrunk.
"snort."
Gu Qi snorted coldly and said sullenly: "Hey, why don't you stop making trouble? Don't think that just by giving you three points of color, you can open a dyeing workshop."
This is a very unpleasant thing to say, but the old and rebellious Pao Ge elders didn't even dare to let go, and looked like they were just going to do it.
What the military command and the secret service were doing in Jinling and Changcheng was no secret, and no one wanted to become a decoration on the city gate tower.
The most excited person just now put his hands on his knees and straightened his back, just like a student in school. He highlighted two words - well-behaved.
Seeing that everyone was no longer noisy, Gu Qi's face looked a little better, just a little better, and he increased the intensity of his words.
"Since you have never dealt with the military commander before and don't know our rules, I won't go into details this time, but this situation can only happen once.
If anyone dares to cause trouble next time, I guarantee that you will not see the sun tomorrow, and your family members will also be punished, even if they are abroad.
Zhang Zhangqi, how are your wife and children doing in Cochin? Zhao Longtou, your son’s learning of tricks in the United States has been relatively successful..."
He called several people's names in succession. It looked like a greeting, but the threat was clear. Whoever disagreed would be prepared to suffer misfortune for the whole family.
Some people always think that everything will be fine if they send their children abroad. It is so cute to ignore the more than 30 intelligence stations established by the military in dozens of cities on five continents around the world.
After years of development, especially with the support of the deputy director, they have formed a complete intelligence network overseas.
For example, Japan Station, American Station, London Station, Paris Station, Berlin Station, Delhi Station, Mumbai Station, Yangon Station, Bangkok Station, Changi Station, Luzon Station, Haiphong Station, Saigon Station, Istanbul Station, Cairo Station, etc. .
Even if some intelligence stations only have a few staff members, and their daily work is only to collect public information from newspapers, there is still no problem in investigating the family members of several gang members.
After hearing Gu Qi's words, the faces of the flag bearers changed again and again, and they secretly cursed you, a government official, for threatening people with old, weak, women and children, how shameless you are.
Gu Qi seemed to have guessed what they were thinking, and his expression became more and more serious: "Don't think that Mr. Gu is unethical. Morality is something you talk about with your friends. The military commander will never show mercy to enemies and traitors.
To tell you the truth, not only Chongli Society, but also the other three clans are our targets. The Japanese used various means to kill the original leader and support Japanese spies as their bannermen.
Don't think this is alarmist. If you don't believe it, you can ask Sun Zhangqi. If we hadn't intervened in time, what you came to attend today might not be the incense hall, but his funeral. "
As the saying goes, one stone stirs up a thousand waves. Gu Qi's words shocked all the brothers. The military commander wanted to take action against the four halls, and these halls were also controlled by the Japanese?
Even Sun Renyi was almost killed by the other party. Is it possible that this Shancheng brother, who is known for his cautious behavior, could be sneaked into the hall so easily?
Everyone was shocked and confused. They turned to look at Sun Renyi for answers, and then saw him nodding with a grimace.
"Chief Gu is right. Everyone should know that the original teakeeper of this teahouse was the steward of Wenrentang. This person was a Japanese spy.
He has been with me for many years, but he colluded with the Chongli Society to steal and kill five of his fellow disciples. There is evidence for these things, and it is definitely not just what Sun said.
Also, my beloved brother was harmed by this despicable villain Wu Xiwen. It would be a shame not to avenge this. I sincerely ask you all to give me a helping hand. "
Sun Renyi's eyes were red, he clasped his hands and turned around in a circle, then bowed deeply, vividly explaining what it means to value love and justice.
During this period, Gu Qi and Wu Chunyang paid close attention to the facial expressions and body movements of the robe brothers, trying to see if there were any Japanese nails in them.
However, maybe the Japanese had made arrangements in the five halls of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust, or they were disguised well, so the two did not find any suspicious persons who behaved abnormally.
Gu Qi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He clapped his hands and asked the little agent to present the tracking records as well as the files, warheads and other evidence collected by Wu Chunyang.
More than a dozen flag-bearers doubtfully picked up a photo and investigation record and looked at it carefully. The more they looked at it, the more angry they became. It turned out that what Sun Renyi said was true.
What I fear most when I'm hanging out in Qiao Lake is not being targeted by the government, not being plotted by my enemies, but being stabbed in the back by my own people, because once a traitor strikes, he'll be more ruthless than anyone else.
Take Sun Renyi's brother-in-law as an example. After his death, his family immediately left the mountain city. The reason was not to avoid Wu Xiwen.
What the Japanese did was a big taboo. No one wants to be a stepping stone for others, especially these senior officials who once controlled other people's lives and deaths.
Gu Qi sat at the top and watched with cold eyes, knowing their thoughts clearly. Knowing that the matter was done, he looked at Wu Chunyang next to him and smiled.
When it comes to patriotism, these people may not be very interested, but when it comes to their own interests, it's different. Not to mention the Japanese, even if the Americans come, they will still beat up the mother-in-law.
Sure enough, after the flag-bearers laid down the evidence, they stopped talking about harming their fellow disciples. If they wanted to step on their heads or even occupy the magpie's nest, there was no way!
At this time, there was another cough in the inner hall. Wu Chunyang got up and went in for a moment. After coming out, he handed a note to Gu Qi. After reading it, Gu Qi added fuel to the fire.
"Everyone, everyone, I have something ugly to say at the beginning. The wealth, cars, and real estate of the four houses, including Chongli Society, are all owned by the military.
As for the territory and business, it belongs to whoever grabs it. Sun Zhangqi's family affairs will be handled by himself, and Wenrentang is also qualified to participate in the action.
In addition, in addition to cigarettes, land and population, we will share 60% of all business income from you in the future. Don’t be too expensive. No one dares to investigate the business of military commanders.
As for the two things I just mentioned, no one is allowed to participate, otherwise be careful with your heads. I’ve finished my words. Who is in favor and who is against? "
The good old Gucci stood up slowly as he spoke, holding his hands on the table, his eyes sweeping across everyone's faces, full of aggression.
When the leading men heard the first sentence, they almost fell out on the spot, oh, let them fight the battle, and the army will take the benefits, so they can't kneel down and beg for food.
But after hearing the second sentence, everyone's mood immediately turned from cloudy to clear. What's wrong with someone, no matter if they have a knife. When you come out to hang out, you have to talk about power and background!
If you can establish a relationship with the military commander, let alone 60%, even 70% will be considered. With the protection of the other party, you can participate in businesses that you could not get involved in before.
"Bang!"
The cheeky man slapped the table again and said solemnly: "I agree, the Japanese are attacking Brother Pao, and I am sworn in with them!
Don't worry, Sir Gu, my court is always at your disposal. If anyone dares to object, leave it to me and I will promise to persuade him. "
As he said this, he looked at his colleagues who were allies just a few seconds ago. Most of them looked like they were going to go on a killing spree with just one order from Gu Qi.
Pooh! It's the same thing. You were the one who started the trouble earlier, and you were the first one to stand up and flatter the military commander. It's really shameless.
The noses of the other banner holders were so angry that they clapped their chests to express their approval. What's wrong with making money on your knees? It's all about making money, not shabbiness.
Gu Qi laughed loudly, and his attitude suddenly became warm: "With the help of all of you in charge of the flag, this operation will be a success. Okay, let's talk about the specific arrangements.
After the meeting, military commanders will protect everyone and return to their respective halls to gather troops. At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, they will act in unison to launch a surprise attack on four halls where Japanese spies are hiding.
Among them, the four flag-bearers and the managers at all levels are not responsible for you. We are personally responsible for it. You mainly deal with the youngest and youngest at the bottom and try to catch as many as possible.
At the same time, we have to trouble Sun Zhangqi to let everyone know that Wenrentang is looking for the murderer of the five Pao brothers. What do you think? "
Snakes follow their own paths, and rats follow their own paths. It is difficult for military commanders alone to catch all the hundreds of robbers in one go, even if the police and central commander-in-chief are added.
The underground power of the entire mountain city must be mobilized, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort. Gu Qi was once again amazed by the deputy director's generosity.
"I would like to listen to Sir Gu's instructions!"
All the brothers in the meeting loudly responded. With huge interests at hand, they didn't care whether the accompanying agents were protecting or monitoring.
The wind outside the window became more and more fierce. Far away in Chongli Society in downtown Shancheng City, Wu Xiwen frowned as he looked at the crumbling branches outside.
