There is a big difference between stealing and stealing.
Stealing means taking something from someone without their knowledge, and there is a meaning in it. Theft is different. Theft involves subjective planning and execution.
Literally speaking, the word steal has the meaning of being lazy. As for thief, it means taking advantage of others by any means. This word originally contains more aggression and greed.
The room, or the place, was clean, but not very clean. Not a penny was left behind, but there were some footprints left on the window. This was planned, but it was definitely improvised.
Everyone is in the room at this moment. Liu Jianjun is a soldier. He has strong restraint, but he keeps drinking at this moment. The most anxious person present besides Liu Jianjun is Xu Doudou. They wanted to report the crime but were stopped.
Liu Jianjun was right. The source of the money was indeed somewhat shady. At least they couldn't explain to the security officers how the money came from. You can't tell the security guard that this is a trophy for the winner of the battle between the lower nine gates.
This was a huge sum of money for everyone. Lu Huanxi almost went crazy. He couldn't imagine that a group of people like him would suffer such a loss. If he hadn't been stopped, he would have gone all over the city to find those people. The whereabouts of the person are known, and now they need to find out who is responsible.
Liu Silong asked, "Could it be that those Qimen people are unwilling to do anything about it?"
"It can't be them. They don't bother to use this method. Even if they want to get the money back, they will use the craftsmanship they are proud of."
Xu Doudou said, "I was careless. During this time, I no longer regarded myself as a Jianghu person. I had forgotten Master's teachings. We shouldn't have come to this local big hotel. We should have gone to a small hotel. This kind of Big hotels usually have people watching them, looking for expensive foreign tourists.”
"Senior Brother Dou, who could that be?"
"I have called the junior brother here to ask that the money must not have been stolen by local colleagues. Although the master has strictly prohibited us from stealing for a living these years, all the elders in China need to register at Qianjumen. The action will be So fast, with such vicious eyesight, I think it must have been done by a colleague, or by Lao Rong who happened to be passing by. This possibility is actually not very likely. It requires too many coincidences. If this is the case, I think the person has already left. It’s far away and we can’t find anything.”
Although the people here are young, they are all calm, and Zhang Nian'er doesn't care about the money. For a child who has been lacking nothing since he was a child, he has no concept of money at all. Liu Jianjun, the most mature man, could not hold back his anger. After all, this money was the hope of his factory and the livelihood of thousands of employees. This money involved countless families.
"Xiaodouzi, please tell me what the other possibility is."
"I think it might be theft. Stealing and robbery are the same thing, but the family split up a hundred years ago. They acted unscrupulously. They did too many harmful things in those troubled times. The owner of the sect at that time expelled those people. After that, the sect was renamed Senjumen."
"What is theft? Isn't it the same as stealing?" Liu Silong asked
"Heaven is born to kill, and this is the principle of Tao. Heaven and earth are the thieves of all things. All things are the thieves of humans. People are the thieves of all things. When the three thieves are suitable, the three talents are in harmony."
"What's the meaning?"
Zhang Qilu explained at this time, "The heaven and earth are stolen by all things, so that all things can have spirit. All things are stolen by people, so humans can survive. People, in turn, are stolen by all things in the world. This is what humans need to give back after asking for it." Of this world. Robbery is used here. Although theft is active, the theft here is also extremely passive. Without the act of stealing, the heaven and earth would not be able to function, and all things would not be able to grow, then there would be no human beings."
Xu Doudou now had a new understanding of the young master's knowledge, and he began to admire this young man from the bottom of his heart.
"Uncle Junior is right. This is the creed of these thieves. They rob tombs, they will also rob roads, and they will even kill people and rob goods as a last resort. They think that all this is for survival, and it is natural for these For people, stealing follows the rules, and thieves can do whatever they want. This is the main reason why we broke with them."
"Senior Brother Dou, what you mean is that there are door robbers here in western Fujian?"
Without further ado, everyone took action immediately. Xu Doudou called Xu Qianshou and asked him to make arrangements. Someone from his own family would arrive in western Fujian early tomorrow morning. The old man was furious after receiving the call and scolded Xu Doudou. After a while, someone actually reached out to them.
Everyone began to divide the work. Wu Ruyi and Lu Huanxi went to the west, Zhang Nian'er and Zhang Qilu went to the east, Liu Silong went to the north, and Xu Doudou went to the south. Liu Jianjun also wanted to go, but he was just a businessman after all. He had just recovered from a serious illness, so he stayed in the hotel to take charge of liaison.
They rented three more cars from the hotel and went their separate ways. Everyone had their own strengths. Xu Doudou knew the way and he had the best chance of finding it. Zhang Qilu looked at the qi and had a chance to find a gathering place for practitioners. Fifth Ruyi is also very likely to find money with a human treasure detector. Even the seemingly hopeless Liu Silong has his own path. He is a walking encyclopedia of contemporary martial arts. She knows all the contemporary martial arts sects as long as they are officially registered. There happens to be a stronghold of a big gang here. Fujian merchant gang.
The Fujian merchant gang emerged in a very unique way. Hundreds of years ago, some down-and-out local merchants joined together to smuggle and even rob foreign caravans. Gradually, after gaining a certain strength, they began to collude with local officials. Their internal and external collusion in trade was very unique, and they grew rapidly without showing off. By the early Ming Dynasty, due to the unique geographical conditions along the coast, the Fujian merchant gangs began to establish strongholds by the sea, and smuggled goods between maritime countries under the pretext of going overseas to purchase goods. By the time it developed to the end of the Qing Dynasty, it had become a very influential gang. It was no exaggeration to say that it was as rich as the enemy. It was then that everyone really noticed them, but it was too late. This gang had already become A behemoth, and almost no longer do illegal things. Immediately after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, this group of Jianghu people who knew how to assess the situation began to place bets, and they were very accurate every time. Until Japan invaded China, they turned into real people. The patriotic businessmen spent all their money to support the current government's fight against the Japanese, which is why today's Fujian merchant gangs exist. If you don't have the strength, you will be cannibalized at any time. Even though they are businessmen, there are also real charlatans. They are said to be Jianghu people and they are the richest among them.
It can be said that Liu Silong is very familiar with their gang, and his master is their guest. Jing Rifei is a distinguished guest among the distinguished guests of the Fujian merchant gang, because his master manages all the industries in Wudang, and Wudang is one of the top sects at the moment.
Sometimes life is so strange. Here she saw someone who shouldn't be here, which made her overjoyed.
