To the east of the old county town, this area along the Yitong River from Dongdaqiao to Quan'an Bridge is known by old Changchun people as a happy place where willows and filth hide in Firework Lane.
The northeastern part of the old city has always been a prosperous business district and an area where noble people live due to the existence of the commercial port road. The entertainment venues there are very high-quality, after all, the level of consumption is there.
Ordinary people couldn't afford to go to commercial districts to spend money, so they couldn't play in the mud at home, so an area commonly known as Happy Land appeared, where there was no busy traffic on the main road or high-rise buildings.
Walking along the Yitong River from north to south, you can only see an old civilian residential area. The roads inside are narrow and can only pass one car at most. There are thousands of lanes and lanes, which are as complicated as the south of the city.
Although this place is inconspicuous, although it is small, it is well-equipped with all the internal organs. There are countless brothels, big and small, and prostitutes with half-open doors can be seen everywhere.
Small gambling shops, small smokehouses, and naughty restaurants are the favorite places for ordinary people. The consumption here is much lower than on the main road. Although the quality of Rehe soil is lower, the girls can't compare. The brothels in prosperous areas are beautiful, but they are better because ordinary people can afford them.
This is just like the main road is the Qianmen Street and Eight Lanes of Peking, the capital city, and the happy place in the east of the city is the overpass where people are willing to go. As long as you have a few oceans in your hands, you can become an uncle here.
Even though the women behind the half-closed door are all mature sisters-in-law, they are all charming and considerate. As long as you spend a few hours here, you will have a thrilling feeling of stealing someone else's wife.
Some people usually joke about this woman, saying that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a thief. It is fun to do that kind of thing secretly. The happy half-open door just satisfies these people's hobby. Not to mention spending less money, but also If you can satisfy your own dirty desires, you will go to those big brothels to be taken advantage of when your brain is broken.
Qi Sanye can be said to be the top big shot in this area. Only with Qi Sanye's permission and paying a monthly deposit can he engage in profitable business in this area.
Qi Sanye's rules are very simple. It doesn't matter if you are a robber who kills people and sells goods, or a black shop selling human meat buns, or renting a house and selling meat, as long as you make a living in whatever way you want, he doesn't care, as long as you pay the money in full on time, Not only will they not cause trouble for you, they will also provide you with a good business environment. Anyone who dares to hinder these people from doing business is hindering Qi Sanye from making money. It can be as simple as chopping off your hands or as serious as throwing away the body, but no one dares to do so. Not happy here.
The kiln where Tieniu killed Zhao San is considered one of the best kilns in the area. Qi Sanye gave him a fancy name called Sanchun Tower. The name is also a bit particular. It is said to make people feel happy when they enter the door, and when they call the kiln sister, they will feel spring. Lingering, you can feel like spring mountains are smiling when you walk.
At this time, Qin Tian was standing directly opposite Sanchun Building and looking at this old-fashioned wooden carving building with only two floors. From the outside, he could tell that it was a brothel or restaurant left over from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. Although it looks a bit old now. , but cannot cover up the traces left by skilled craftsmen.
After squatting on the street for a while, Li Mingyi brought fifty patrol officers to put the area under martial law.
"Brother Tian, we are all here. These brothers will not be timid when we start to work later." Li Mingyi came to Qin Tian's side and said confidently.
Qin Tian slapped Li Mingyi on the back of the head and jokingly scolded: "You have been with Tieniu for a long time. How come you only know how to fight and kill? All those sage books you read have been fed to dogs?"
Li Mingyi rubbed the back of his head and said, "That's bullshit sage books. After reading them for so many years, I haven't found anyone with a golden face and a beautiful face. How can I have a future with my elder brother?"
After glancing at Li Mingyi, Qin Tian walked straight into Sanchun Building. Li Mingyi waved his hand when he saw this, and a group of patrol police followed him at his signal.
After entering Sanchun Building, Qin Tian glanced at the wealthy middle-aged man sitting in the hall drinking tea, and then at Tieniu who was hung under the beam. Fortunately, he was only hung without torture, and the other party left some room. It also showed his attitude that he didn't want to break up with the police station because of this matter.
Seeing Qin Tian enter the door, Mr. Qi did not stand up. He glanced at Qin Tian at the door and said in a calm tone: "Deputy Director Qin is young and promising. He has taken the position of the second-in-command of the police station at such a young age. It seems that he is not an ordinary person. Ah, please sit down and watch the tea!"
Qi Sanye displayed the uncle's score, which looked like a Manchu aristocrat. Qin Tian walked up and sat opposite Qi Sanye with a smile on his face. Li Mingyi and a group of patrol police stood at Qin Tian's side very vigilantly. Behind the sky.
"When I first came to Guibao Land, Qin didn't prepare any gifts. It's a bit trivial here. I hope Third Master will accept it."
Qin Tian took out a few cashier's checks from his chest and handed them to Li Mingyi next to him. Li Mingyi glanced at the numbers on the cashier's checks and was surprised at first. He was stunned for two seconds before walking up and handing them to Mr. Qi.
Mr. Qi Sanye took a look at the cashier's check and raised his eyebrows involuntarily. He took the 100,000 cashier's check as soon as he asked. This meeting gift was not a small one.
Qin Tian was so generous as soon as he made his move. Mr. Qi couldn't keep a straight face. A smile appeared on his face and he said politely: "No wonder Brother Qin can sit in the high position of deputy director at such a young age. Qi's eyes have been opened." , come here, put that man down, don’t let anyone say that we are lynching him in front of Director Qin.”
After a while, the hung Tieniu returned to Qin Tian's side. He looked guilty and didn't know what to say. He just stood aside with his head lowered and said nothing.
Qin Tian glanced at Tieniu and kicked him on the leg. Tieniu stumbled and knelt down. He knew that he had made a mistake. Tieniu did not complain and could only kneel on the ground and wait for his fate.
"How dare you touch Third Master Qi's people? And you tortured them in public? Have you forgotten your identity? Third Master Qi didn't want to cause trouble with us, so he deliberately detained you here instead of sending you to the gendarmerie. That's why he let you You saved your life, why don’t you quickly kowtow to Mr. Qi and admit your mistake?”
Tieniu looked at Qin Tian angrily when he heard this. From the bottom of his heart, he was not willing to apologize to the other party, but because Qin Tian was so serious, he felt a little hesitant.
Unexpectedly, this hesitation instantly angered Qin Tian, and he was kicked by Qin Tian again. Only then did Tieniu realize the seriousness of the matter. He reluctantly got up and kowtowed to Mr. Qi three times, then clasped his fists. He said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Qi San. I really didn't know that Zhao San was yours, and I shouldn't have killed anyone in your place. Tieniu was wrong."
Qi Sanye did not expect Qin Tian to be such a good person. Not only did he give him a hundred thousand ransom, but he also asked Tieniu to apologize to him in front of so many people.
Whether it is face or dignity, Qi Sanye is impeccable. For a person like him who is in the world, all he wants is face. If the other party has given him enough face and has set the stage, there will naturally be no need to embarrass the other party in the future. , after all, Zhao San is just a little gangster, he is dead and has no impact at all. What's more, Qin Tian, the new deputy director, is so good at life. He doesn't need to go against the officials and his family, as long as he keeps the well water It is enough not to offend the river.
Feeling relieved, Mr. Qi's face also became friendly. He stood up and made a greeting gesture: "Director Qin, it's too spacious here. Why don't you go to the side room and boil some pots of wine to warm yourself up?"
Seeing Mr. Qi taking the initiative to invite him, Qin Tian knew that the matter had been revealed. He stood up with a smile and politely cupped his hands and said: "I originally planned to come to pay homage to the dock, but before I officially took office, things started to pile up. I was thinking of coming to pay New Year greetings to Mr. Qi on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but who knew that something like this would happen and cause you trouble."
Qin Tian spoke so nicely that Qi Sanye's hair was smoothed down. He smiled happily and stepped forward to hold Qin Tian's hand and walked inside together.
The tense atmosphere just now calmed down unexpectedly. Li Mingyi helped Tie Niu up and imitated Qin Tian's technique, patted Tie Niu on the back of the head, and cursed angrily: "You stupid cow, why did you use that just now?" Looking at Brother Tian with such eyes, you don’t want to live anymore, right?”
Tieniu said a little unhappy: "I killed Zhao San just to vent my anger on my eldest brother. We are the police. How can we kowtow to admit our mistakes to these gangsters? I can't figure it out."
Seeing that Tieniu was still unconvinced, Li Mingyi said in a low voice: "Do you know that in order to save you, my eldest brother just spent a hundred thousand yuan to kill you, how much is your body worth? If you are still not convinced, you If you are sent to the Japanese, it won’t be a matter of money, do you know that?”
"What? Oriental people? So Mr. Qi is still related to the Oriental people?" Tieniu was a bit stupid and couldn't turn around for a while.
Li Mingyi clarified the logic through Qin Tian's words just now, and whispered in a low voice: "Then Zhao San is closely related to the Dongyang people. He is the informant of the Dongyang people, and he is Qi Sanye's person. What do you think? Does Mr. Qi have anything to do with the Japanese?"
After being reminded by Li Mingyi, Tieniu suddenly realized, slapped himself, and blamed himself: "I made the mistake of blaming the elder brother. When I get back, I will kowtow to the elder brother and admit my mistake."
"Who has the final say in Changchun now? Even though we are the police, don't we have to respectfully call Taijun when we see Japanese people? Even the director of the police department has to pretend to be grandson when meeting Japanese people. We are nothing. You saved your life this time, but it’s a bit too expensive, one hundred thousand yuan, how many years will it take for us to earn that much, so it’s a pity to give it away for nothing.”
Hearing what Li Mingyi said, Tieniu felt even more guilty. He had caused Qin Tian such a huge loss, and even killing him wouldn't be enough to compensate him. He pulled Li Mingyi to the corner in a panic, rubbed his hands and prayed: "Brother Mingyi, please help me." Zhao, what should I do when I go back?"
Li Mingyi didn't know what to do, so he said with a sad face: "Don't worry, when the time comes, eldest brother will be punished, and I will be punished with you. At worst, our section chiefs will quit and continue to work as guards for eldest brother."
"If you don't tell me, I know that I can't be the section chief. As long as I follow my eldest brother, it doesn't matter if I am the section chief or not. I'm afraid that he won't even let me work as a guard in the future. You know, I agreed to marry Xinghua Come in, if eldest brother drives me away, the matter between Xinghua and I will be ruined."
"You, you, you are still thinking about girls at this time, listen to me, this is what we will do when we go back..."
