Du Yuesheng's Unofficial History 王俊 4736Words 2018-03-13
Just a week after Du Yuesheng took back the opium, several major opium robbery cases broke out in the Shanghai French Concession one after another.Various gangs of cigarette dealers and gangsters fought again and again.The hooligans who robbed the land fled without a trace once they succeeded.Some said it was a group of gangsters from the British Concession, and some rumors were friends from the underworld at Shiliupu. There were different opinions, which made Chief Inspector Huang Jinrong helpless.He was extremely distressed, for fear that this would destroy his golden brand. On this day, Huang Jinrong was reprimanded by the law arrest room. After returning home, he didn't like anyone and lost his temper at the servants for no reason, calling this one a "scumbag" and that one a "bastard".For a while, the Huang mansion was in a state of restlessness.

Lin Guisheng saw that the housekeeping was messed up, so he contradicted his husband politely: "What's the matter with you today? What happened to you? Playing prestige at home?" "I'm so annoyed!" After seeing his wife, Huang Jinrong softened all of a sudden. "What's going on, tell me, I'll listen!" "'West Detective No. 1' is going to be replaced again. The French Concession is scrambling for opium, and the house arrest is limited to me for half a month to settle this matter." "Is there a way?" "What can I do? I can't catch a single person at all."

Lin Guisheng heard about the robbing of big cigarettes, and couldn't help but think of the incident of stealing cigarettes in the middle of the night a few days ago.Although the smoke was recovered, it lost the face of Mr. Huang, so Lin Guisheng strictly ordered the people in the family not to mention this matter in front of Huang Jinrong. Now, she wondered if the smoke thief had something to do with the smoke robbery ?Thinking of this, Lin Guisheng regretted that he was too soft-hearted, let him go, and broke his eyeliner. "What do you eat the 'Sanguang Mazi' under your hand, where is Fusheng?"

"Those who dare to snatch big cigarettes are not petty thieves. There are people with guns and backers behind them. Is there any use for 'Sanguang Code'?" Lin Guisheng rolled his eyes and said thoughtfully, "How about I recommend someone to you?" "Who?" Lin Guisheng blurted out: "Du Yuesheng!" Lin Guisheng recommended Du Yuesheng not because he was sure to solve the case, but because he had other intentions. Firstly, Du Yuesheng was quick-witted, so he might make an upset and provide clues to the boss; Show your skills.Therefore, she recommended Du Yuesheng.

Du Yuesheng gladly accepted the order. Du Yuesheng had been in Shiliupu Wharf, and first sent someone to find a fellow brother of the "Wu" generation of the Qing Gang. Gu Jiatang, one of the four King Kongs of the little "Stupid Party" who was higher than him back then, was his eyeliner. Through him, Du Yuesheng made clear the inside story of the cigarette robbery case at once. It turns out that since the opening of Shanghai, opium has been an important business for British and French merchants.Just because Shanghai is a foreign concession, beyond the reach of the Chinese government, the tobacco and soil merchants use Shanghai as the largest transshipment point.Opium smoke was transported from Wusongkou by ocean-going ships. In order to avoid military camps and checkpoints, tobacco merchants put opium in sacks at Wusongkou and threw it into the water.As the tide ebbs, the river backflows and retreats into the Huangpu River.Then, the tobacco merchants hired people to use sampan boats to fish for the goods, or let people who had ambushed on the shore in advance use bamboo pole hooks to drag them ashore.Some hooligans found out the secrets of the cigarette merchants receiving the goods, and they did the same thing. First, they drove the sampan to intercept the opium sacks, and used the hook to grab the tobacco soil.This is an action on the water, a code word in the rivers and lakes, called "scratching the hook".

By land, when the tobacco merchants receive the goods, they all go to the warehouse near the Xinkai River not far to the west of Shiliupu.Because this is the area where the borders of Britain, France, and China meet, the patrol houses are irrelevant, which is very convenient for concealment. Tobacco merchants transported the goods and packed opium in kerosene tanks to deceive people.The movement in and out of the tobacco stack is not eye-catching. The smoke snatchers set up eyeliner in advance, and only waited for the kerosene tank to enter the stack, and then drove into the smoke stack in a carriage with a group of large wooden boxes hidden in the cart.When no one noticed, the thieves quickly put the wooden box on the kerosene tank, stole the sky for another day, put it in a carriage and fled in a grandiose place.This method is called "boxing".

A few hooligans were weak, so they blocked the road and robbed single smokers.This is called "hard climbing" in the arena. It is the small "eight-legged party" who has been rampant for a while.The big "eight-legged party" ran across the British Concession, while the small "eight-legged party" dominated the French concession.Gu Jiatang is one of them. Du Yuesheng was very happy to learn about the ins and outs of robbing cigarettes from his brothers, and immediately went to Jin Rong and Lin Guisheng to speak: "According to Yuesheng's idea, if we want to calm down the trend of scrambling for cigarettes, we must first get rid of the 'eight-legged party'."

Du Yuesheng spoke in a low voice but appeared very sophisticated. At this time, before Huang Jinrong could speak, Lin Guisheng anxiously asked, "How to arrange it? How many of his leaders should be killed?" "No, give them some sweets, this matter will be much easier!" If you want to pay, it is tantamount to losing money, but Huang Jinrong is a little unwilling, and asks impatiently: "What's the sweetness?" Du Yuesheng stretched out a finger: "Take 10% of the shipping fee as foot money, and the condition is that we arrange the deposit in a unified way."

When Huang Jinrong heard this, his face was very cold, and he said coldly: "The price is too high!" Lin Guisheng was also a little anxious: "There's no need to pay for it yourself!" But Du Yuesheng said with a smile: "Just 10% of the shipping fee can revive the power of the Huangmen, so why not do it?" Hearing what Du Yuesheng said, "Why not do it", Huang Jinrong became even more angry, and closed his eyes: "How do you say that?" "Letting the 'eight-legged party' change the smuggling of opium soil into a mortgage is tantamount to forming them into a Yellow Gate ranger. They escort the opium soil, and the local merchants pay a part of the money each time as a protection fee, and we collect it. The ranger also protects for a long time. Soil, regular distribution of money. In this way, one quells the snatching of cigarettes and pays the severance of the law arrest house; On the sheep; besides, there will be no criminal cases in the future, and the local merchants will be grateful. It is safe and the foreigners will feel good."

"Not bad!" Huang Jinrong finally showed a smile. Du Yuesheng went on to say: "Furthermore, the 'Stupid Party' is the Chief Detective's escort, and he is considered to have a solid job. He can't afford to take risks. After a long time, he will wholeheartedly work for the Yellow Gate. This transportation team can be accepted as the Chief Detective The Huang family can't just rely on a few 'Sanguang Mazi' to support your scene, right?" After hearing his words, Huang Jinrong and Lin Guisheng danced happily: "Good idea, good idea! It kills three birds with one stone." Immediately, Huang Jinrong stood up and patted Du Yuesheng on the shoulder vigorously: "Okay, I will entrust you to handle this matter." .”

"Yuesheng, the boss trusts you, you have to work hard." Lin Guisheng interjected. "Yes, thanks to the cultivation of Boss Huang and his wife, Yuesheng will definitely do the same work as a dog." After Du Yuesheng's "combining vertically and horizontally", clever maneuvers, and Gu Jiatang's go-between, he quickly recruited and settled the rampant little "eight-legged party". In this way, the situation in the French Concession was quickly reversed, and the rogue gangs of some young men also drew up their spheres of influence and did not invade each other. The opium dealers saw that Huang Jinrong was so capable that he was able to deal with the gang leaders of the underworld, so they asked him to serve as a bodyguard. Seeing that the situation was good, Lin Guisheng took advantage of the opportunity to take a two-pronged approach, set up a dry stock, and sold opium at the same time.Ever since, bags of opium were continuously transported into the Huang mansion. Du Yuesheng earned enough face for Inspector Huang, and also filled Lin Guisheng's pocket, and his status in Huang's mansion also rose a lot. One day, Lin Guisheng called Du Yuesheng and told him solemnly: "Yuesheng, from today onwards, I will let you put down the single file and go outside to explore the world." "Is this true? Mistress?" "It's true, I discussed it with the boss." Du Yuesheng was overwhelmed by flattery, he knew that it was the proprietress who promoted him to debut. "Thank you, Master!" Du Yuesheng's heart was sweeter than eating honey. "You're welcome. Go to the boss of 'Gongxingji' and tell him that I sent you and ask him to set aside a gaming table for you to take care of, and get a real salary!" Working as an errand in the Huang Mansion does not earn a salary.With Mr. Huang's signboard, he can hang out in Shanghai Bund.Du Yuesheng won the trust of Lin Guisheng and received a salary, which is already an exception, let alone the errand of watching the gambling table? All the casinos in Shanghai have the support of the board of directors of the Concession Association. With this background, the patrol room can protect them openly and covertly, and ordinary hooligans dare not blackmail and cause trouble.Of course, if you ask someone to look after the table, you get a 90% bonus, and the "salary" of the people below is naturally considerable.What's more, the people who showed up in the big casino were all wealthy and prominent officials. Stepping into that place undoubtedly reflected their high status. "Gongxingji" is one of the three famous casinos in the French Concession.There is a lot of traffic here all day long, and there are so many people in the city.Every time Du Yuesheng walked through its door, he always looked inside enviously.Unexpectedly, Lin Guisheng sent him there to eat his salary, so how could he not be overjoyed? Du Yuesheng couldn't believe his ears, he opened his mouth wide and stared at Lin Guisheng blankly: "Master, can I?" Lin Guisheng pulled him into his arms with a smile, then nodded: "What are you afraid of, be more courageous!" Du Yuesheng didn't know how to be grateful, so he hugged the proprietress tightly. At this moment, Lin Guisheng's mouth was already close to her. Du Yuesheng bit her upper and lower lips, and pressed his tongue against her. His whole body softened, he fell on Du Yuesheng, and touched him with his hands. These touches made Du Yuesheng aroused. He who was usually thin and thin didn't know where he got so much strength. He hugged Lin Guisheng and put him on the bed. It fell down, and the two of them were naked, and Du Yuesheng was pressed on Lin Guisheng's body, and the clouds and rain rose.Unexpectedly, after a few rounds, Lin Guisheng didn't let go of his addiction. When Du Yuesheng was panting, she jumped up and rode on his body to change from passive to active. This way, she penetrated the deepest, and Lin Guisheng's orgasm came up. Oh, "Plop", Du Yuesheng hasn't fired the "cannon", but she is so happy that she can't hold herself... After a lot of rain, the two of them were too tired to get up on the bed, but they still slept together with their arms around their shoulders and their feet bound.After resting like this for tens of minutes, the panting calmed down. Du Yuesheng got up and put on his underwear. Immediately go to 'Gongxingji' to watch the stand." Du Yuesheng was also thinking about eating this piece of fat as soon as possible, and immediately bid farewell to his wife, and rushed to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to tell the casino owner about his future intentions.Unexpectedly, the boss gave him a rubber nail: "Dude, empty talk, how can I pay you all at once?" Du Yuesheng blushed "shua".He was used to running around small gambling shacks, and had never stepped into the threshold of a nightclub. He finally mustered up the courage to break in, but was slapped by the boss, and all his guts were vented.What's even more annoying is that he was ridiculed in public.Du Yuesheng, who usually adapts to the situation on weekdays, suddenly became clumsy. He turned around and ran out of the casino as if fleeing.On the way, the boss's ridicule still buzzed in his ears, and a burst of shame welled up in his heart.He thought: This time the embarrassment has also involved the proprietress, it is better to avoid causing trouble.Back home, Du Yuesheng had no choice but to keep silent, slipped back to his room, and fell asleep with his head covered. The next day, Lin Guisheng went downstairs to the living room to have tea. Seeing that Du Yuesheng hadn't left the house, he felt very strange, so he asked, "Yuesheng, why don't you go to 'Gongxingji'? How much will you pay over there?" "I, I'm not feeling well!" Du Yuesheng hesitated and couldn't answer.Lin Guisheng is a shrewd person, she guessed at a glance that there must be a reason. She lowered her face and asked: "To be honest, if you work outside, you are not allowed to lose Huangmen's face." Du Yuesheng knew that he couldn't escape, so he told the truth. When Lin Guisheng heard this, he slapped the Eight Immortals table and jumped up, and said sharply: "Okay, how dare the boss of 'Gongxingji' not give me face, what I said is empty talk? I will take you there myself!" Lin Guisheng led Du Yuesheng and a group of bodyguards into "Gongxingji" in a murderous spirit. The owner of the casino saw Lin Guisheng's sudden arrival, and Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out. Seeing Lin Guisheng's livid face and a pair of eyes with a cold light, his heart felt a little weaker, and he knew something was wrong.Looking at Du Yuesheng who was following her, it was the young man who was dismissed by him that day, and his scalp felt numb. Lin Guisheng is the famous "sister-in-law of Bai Xiangren", who dares to offend Mr. Huang's inner boss? "Ah, sister Guisheng is here, why didn't you inform me in advance, so that I can prepare for it too!" The boss has seen the world, how tactful and astute!He yelled at the servants below: "No tea yet! Sister Guisheng, hey, you, please smoke." The boss kept talking and doing, trying to gag Lin Guisheng. Lin Guisheng didn't pay attention to these at all, as if he didn't hear anything.She waved to Du Yuesheng who was behind her, beckoning him to step forward, and then asked the casino owner coldly: "Do you recognize him?" At this time, the boss realized that the joke had gone too far. He apologized and said, "Sister Guisheng, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know this guy. Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding! Your sister Guisheng is taking care of you. How dare I not obey?" Lin Guisheng put his hips on his hips and snorted: "Didn't you want a certificate, now, the certificate has come to your door!" Lin Guisheng's voice was not loud, but it sounded like a bomb went off in the silent casino.The gamblers playing Pai Gow and spinning the wheel were all dumbfounded, sitting in a daze, and no one dared to move. The owner of the casino immediately said with a smile on his face, "How dare I bother you. This guy has a long-term salary, with a monthly salary of 50 yuan. Madame, do you think this is okay?" In the past, the people watching the stands were all 30 yuan. Lin Guisheng thought that he had already earned enough face and there was no need to get stiff, so he went along with the flow: "In this case, he will follow you, you have to treat him well!" "Yes Yes!" Lin Guisheng walked to a Pai Gow table and said, "Let me push some sets." "Welcome Sister Guisheng to 'Gongxingji' to play luck." Seeing the storm pass by, the boss felt a stone in his heart fall to the ground, and he called out to the servants again: "Guys, quickly serve melon seeds, candies, hot tea, and towels to Sister Guisheng." The errands will do it right away.The boss secretly gave a few gamblers a wink, telling them to hurry up and help.Those gamblers understood, and hurriedly embraced Lin Guisheng, cheering him up.Lin Guisheng finally showed a smile on his face.The boss and the gamblers also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The 32 dental cards were spread out on the stage, Lin Guisheng was the banker, and the gamblers divided their bets into three.Not long after, the atmosphere of the casino became lively and returned to its original state. Lin Guisheng is an expert, sitting down with more than a dozen deputy dealers, he has already won a lot, and the money piled up in front of him has become a hill, but when she lost her excitement, she remembered that she is Mrs. Huang's wife, and staying in the casino for a long time will hinder the detective. reputation, it is better to retreat earlier.She saw that the chips in front of her were about two to three hundred yuan, which was enough to bet on, so she called Du Yuesheng: "Yuesheng, come here, you can continue." Du Yuesheng didn't understand what the proprietress wanted, so he hesitated for a while. "Yuesheng, you're here to play around. Doesn't the boss know you? You'll get used to it after playing a lot, and you won't need a certificate next time." Lin Guisheng laughed and brought the bodyguards back home. The casino owner knew that there were thorns in his words, but still bit the bullet and sent Lin Guisheng to a chartered car.
