Chapter 409 Find a Protector

“Boss, I’m waiting for your choice.”

Wang Wu lowered his head, turned and left the office. After he left, Zheng Yujie rubbed his head.

Ren Hetai is such a fool. Doesn’t he know that trouble comes from the mouth?

This time, only one of him and Wang Wu is destined to stay.

Logically speaking, he should protect Ren Hetai. If Ren Hetai died and was killed by Wang Wu, his mother would definitely come and make a fuss, asking him to kill Wang Wu to avenge Ren Hetai.

But from the perspective of personal interests, keeping Wang Wu is definitely better than keeping Ren Hetai, the pig.

Wang Wu is a qualified thug, while Ren Hetai is a troublemaker who causes trouble for him.

For a moment, Zheng Yujie didn’t know how to make a decision.

Chongqing, Military Control Commission Headquarters.

Secretary Qi brought the latest telegram from Wuhan Station.

According to the verification and investigation by the Wuhan Station, there were indeed only more than 800 people in Xiaohuangshan, but they were strong and powerful. Unlike other bandits, they had not only received training, but also had no shortage of weapons and ammunition.

Not long ago, they robbed a Japanese transport team and seized a lot of supplies.

Because of this, the Japanese sent more than half a battalion of troops, plus puppet troops, to wipe out the rebellion.

As a result, they were defeated again by Xiaohuangshan, and even the team leader was injured.

“Are there Red Party members in Xiaohuang Mountain?”

Boss Dai raised his head and asked in surprise. Secretary Qi lowered his head and said, “From now on, it should be like this. Otherwise, a group of normal bandits would not have such fighting power.”

“These Reds are truly omnipresent.”

Boss Dai snorted coldly. Xiaohuangshan’s performance was indeed good. They were not ordinary bandits, but people who had been educated and trained by the Red Party.

They are similar to the Red Party guerrillas.

Moreover, they had better weapons and equipment than the guerrillas, no wonder they were able to defeat the Japanese.

Boss Dai knew very well who the old man’s real threat was.

Give the Red Party time and they will definitely develop. Xiaohuangshan is an example.

Fortunately, there were not many people in Xiaohuangshan, and they still had to face retaliation from the Japanese.

Given the temperament of the Japanese, they will never let it go after suffering such a huge loss.

“Let Wuhan Station keep an eye on them and report any new developments at any time.”

After thinking about it, Boss Dai gave the order directly. Now is the period of cooperation between Guo and Hong, so it is not easy for him to take action against the Red Party.

However, Xiao Huangshan may become a member of the Red Party in the future, so he can do something.

We will have to wait until they can withstand the Japanese retaliation.

“Yes.”

Secretary Qi accepted the order.

In Shanghai, Xu Qingyun is in the office and Yan Ming is reporting.

Seventy undercover agents have been deployed, and currently only Wang Wu is making the fastest progress. Tang Hetong reports that there is a great opportunity for Wang Wu at the casino, and Wang Wu hopes to take action.

Kill Ren Hetai and replace him.

This way he will have the opportunity to replace Zheng Yujie.

Even Xu Qingyun did not expect that Wang Wu’s progress would be so fast in less than half a month.

“Agree with their plan, but don’t be too hasty. Also, it’s time to arrange a strong reinforcement for Wang Wu so that Zheng Yujie will be wary of him.”

A strong support is someone who can speak for Wang Wu. After all, Wang Wu is Zheng Yujie’s subordinate, and Ren Hetai has a special relationship with Zheng Yujie.

This strong ally does not have to be Chinese, a foreigner will do.

Xu Qingyun has been planning in the concession for many years, so it is not difficult for him to provide a backing for Wang Wu.

The deputy director of the French Concession Police Department, a greedy Frenchman, is a perfect fit for him.

But Xu Qingyun cannot come forward, Wang Wu has to do it himself.

This French guy is willing to help you with anything as long as you give him money. He has a high status, so not to mention Zheng Yujie, even Zhang Wanlin has to give him some face.

Although Zhang Wanlin surrendered to the Japanese, he still lived in the concession.

“Okay, I’ll go tell them.”

Yan Ming nodded and decided to let Tang Hetong handle the matter. Tang Hetong was quite capable and the last accident was not entirely his fault.

This matter is not a big deal, and Tang Hetong has no problem at all.

Including Wang Wu.

Things that can be done by spending money are not really things.

“Tell them to be careful when moving things. They can’t afford to pay for any damages they cause.”

At the dock, Xu Xiaoer is supervising people loading ships. He now has more and more cargo routes, and the amount of cargo shipped out every month is also increasing.

He had bribed people in Suzhou and Nanjing.

With Kamei as the banner, things become much easier.

Of course, the money that should be given cannot be less.

Nowadays, Xu Xiaoer’s business is getting bigger and bigger, and he spends money like water every day. Similarly, they earn more and more money. Xu Xiaoer has become the real god of wealth for Kamei and Takeda.

The dividends that Kamei received from Xu Xiaoer every month amounted to as much as 50,000 yuan.

“Don’t worry, Director. We will keep a close eye on them. If anyone dares to damage our things, I will skin him alive.”

Xu Xiaoer said with a smile, while Xu Xiaoer shook his head secretly.

These subordinates only know how to threaten and don’t know how to be gentle.

But threats do work better.

On the other side, Bai Xu was in class.

She has completely adapted to life in the new school, and she already knows that Dai Congxue used to be the school’s handyman.

Since meeting her that time, Dai Congxue resigned from the school.

Of course, that wasn’t the name she used at school.

Bai Xu is very smart. She understands why Dai Congxue wants to leave. Dai Congxue is a member of the Red Party and she will be in trouble if she is recognized by her.

This is good, Xu Xiaoer is an agent after all.

If he knew about Dai Congxue’s existence, he would most likely go and arrest him.

Deep down, she didn’t want Dai Congxue to be arrested.

No matter what, they are all Chinese and now they have to work together to fight against Japan.

She has been living with Xu Xiaoer these days, and she has a feeling that Xu Xiaoer does not really want to work for the Japanese in his heart, but is forced into it.

She knew that Xu Xiaoer was very powerful, but he had never bullied the Chinese.

The exception is unscrupulous businessmen like Boss Yang.

Boss Yang’s son-in-law has been captured by Takeda. Takeda set a trap to lure him into the trap and caught him red-handed.

Once you enter the Special High Police prison, there is no way you can get out, even if you are a Japanese.

All crows are black, and these spy departments are all the same.

Bai Xu didn’t know that someone in the school was paying attention to her.

Although the organization gave up on developing Bai Xu last time, based on observations during this period, it was discovered that Xu Xiaoer was not that kind of bad spy.

Even Xu Xiaoer has many advantages.

For example, when Xu Xiaoer needed to hire some people, he looked for people who were truly in need.

And they were all Chinese. Just for this reason, he supported a lot of people.

Even though the wages he paid were very low, he never delayed payment, and if someone really encountered difficulties, he would help.

They also found out that although Xu Xiaoer was highly regarded by the Japanese, he did not engage in intelligence work and had never harmed anyone.

He mainly helps Kamei make money.

After a long period of observation, the organization decided to try to contact Bai Xu and, if possible, see if they could develop Bai Xu and Xu Xiaoer into their comrades.

If Xu Xiaoer becomes their comrade, it will be much more convenient in the future.

Xu Xiaoer has a lot of influence among the Japanese. For this reason, the organization specially sent another comrade to infiltrate the school, mainly for observation.

Before they are completely sure, the people in the organization will not rashly contact Bai Xu.

Shanghai had been occupied for a year, and ordinary people continued to live their lives as usual, but their lives became even more difficult under the high-pressure rule of the Japanese.

As for the concession, it remains the same.

Foreigners are supreme. You can offend anyone but not foreigners.

“Mr. Philip.”

Following Tang Hetong’s instructions, Wang Wu found time to visit Philip, deputy director of the French Concession Police Department.

A true Frenchman.

“sit down.”

Philip received Wang Wu at his home. Wang Wu was able to meet him because of the middleman introduced by Tang Hetong.

“It’s just a small token of respect.”

Wang Wu handed over a box and said with a smile, “Philip speaks Chinese well and he has been in China for more than ten years.”

Philip sat up straight, opened the box with a smile.

There were ten large yellow croakers and one hundred taels of gold inside.

Xu Qingyun has always been willing to invest. If Wang Wu does a good job, he will be of great use to the Qing Gang disciples in the future.

Zhang Wanlin is bound to die. Even if Wang Wu completely replaces him in the future, he can still become a big boss.

In the future, if Wang Wu can get in touch with the Japanese, even if the concession disappears, Wang Wu can still play a big role.

If his role is really enhanced, for his safety, some unimportant undercover personnel can be abandoned, such as transferring some people and letting them lurk in other places, or returning to Chongqing.

Or give some people to Wang Wu to command, promote him to be team leader or even group leader.

After the Shanghai station was expanded into a district, Xu Qingyun had no problem arranging a team leader.

“Yes, you are very sensible.”

Philip was even happier when he saw the glittering gold bars. Wang Wu did not come to him to do anything for him today, but just to pay him a visit.

I hope to receive his protection in the future.

Philip has received a lot of such people, but the prerequisite is to pay them enough money.

Once you give him money, he will protect him.

“At least this amount every year in the future.”

Wang Wu said with a smile that giving money when paying respects to the boss is not something that should be done only once, it should be done every year, and more should be given during festivals and holidays.

Wang Wu understands all these principles.

“Very good, you can go back first. If you have any questions, you can contact my secretary.”

“Thank you, sir.”

Wang Wu stood up and said goodbye. His goal had been achieved and there was no need to stay here any longer. The team leader was very efficient and with Philip’s support, he didn’t even have to worry about Zheng Yujie.

I believe that soon he will be able to replace Zheng Yujie and officially become the leader of the Green Gang in Shanghai.

Boss, you are still a little bit away from becoming the big boss, but this step is not that difficult.

Wang Wu believed that Zheng Yujie’s good days were about to end.

Without any worries, Wang Wu planned to take action against Ren Hetai immediately.

Zheng Yujie did not reply to him last time, but Zheng Yujie’s attitude made him understand that Zheng Yujie finally chose him.

If he chose Ren Hetai, Zheng Yujie would have taken action against him.

If he really did that, he would be the one to die.

Wang Wu has made preparations and he will not sacrifice in vain. However, now is not a good time to kill Zheng Yujie. If he kills Zheng Yujie now, he will not be able to replace Zheng Yujie’s position.

The reason is simple. He fails to meet any of the requirements in terms of prestige, strength, background, etc.

If he forcibly takes over Zheng Yujie’s position, he will inevitably be surrounded and beaten by a group of wolves.

The Yuanda Casino is doing good business and is a piece of fat meat. In his hands, it is like a child carrying gold through the streets. It would be strange if it is not robbed.

It’s different now. He has completed one of the three requirements.

After killing Ren Hetai, all the thugs in the casino will be recruited as his subordinates, and he has his own ways to deal with those who are disobedient.

By then, the only thing missing will be prestige.

This is not difficult. If he can really get rid of Ren Hetai, he will do something to build his own reputation. Once he succeeds, it will be time for him to replace Zheng Yujie.

“drink wine.”

In the restaurant, Ren Hetai was talking to his girlfriend about having a good time.

He has no ability and relies on Zheng Yujie’s relationship to eat and drink every day and live a carefree life.

If not for this, Zheng Yujie probably wouldn’t have given up on him even though it would have made his mother worry.

If he had been more courageous, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Wang Wu had a gun and two grenades on his waist.

He held a sharp blade in his hand.

To kill Ren Hetai, he must do it himself, and this time Wang Wu does not plan to bring any men with him.

He wanted to take this opportunity to let others know how powerful he was and increase his prestige.

Ren Hetai brought a lot of people with him, and it would be difficult to kill them all just by relying on a knife. This time, Wang Wu did not hesitate to use a knife.

He is not afraid of being caught by the police, because Liu Ming will pick him up.

Just spend some money and you can get out immediately after entering the police station.

Philip’s ten gold bars were not given for free. If Philip couldn’t even do such a small thing, no one would give him money.

Besides, this was the backer chosen for him by the section chief.

There is no need to check Ren Hetai’s whereabouts, but for safety reasons, Wang Wu still made some arrangements.

He can go and kill people alone, but he must hold down the people who support Ren Hetai.

His men received a mission not to allow anyone in the casino to leave tonight.

Late at night, early in the morning.

The casino opens late, so Ren Hetai goes out to drink in the late night every day. Few restaurants are open at this time, and Ren Hetai doesn’t know how to cook, so he always goes to a fixed restaurant.

Even if the boss is asleep, she has to get up and cook for Ren Hetai.

Today Ren Hetai brought ten people and set up two tables.

His table was full of fine wine and delicious food, but the table next to him was not so good.

Ren Hetai was a stingy person and would not treat everyone to a good meal. Even so, he often asked his subordinates to pay.

Of course, it is impossible to pay in full, and the boss also has complaints about this.

Not only is doing business for Ren Hetai tiring, but you also have to lose money. Fortunately, Ren Hetai doesn’t eat for free every day. If that were the case, he would have closed his business long ago.

The boss considered himself unlucky.

After Wang Wu knew that Ren Hetai had gone to the restaurant, he waited for a while.

Wait until they get drunk first.

If you drink too much, you will have less strength and slower reactions, making it easier for you to commit crimes.

After about an hour, Wang Wu picked up his sword and went out, and soon he arrived at the restaurant entrance.

“boom.”

After pushing the door open, Wang Wu immediately saw Ren Hetai sitting in the middle.

This is a small restaurant without private rooms.

“Ren Hetai, die.”

Wang Wu rushed forward while shouting, while Ren Hetai was still standing there stupidly. However, the people next to him who reacted quickly had already dodged.

“what……”

Ren Hetai let out a scream, and Wang Wu slashed his neck with a knife. The people around him then reacted. Some wanted to fight back, while more people ran away.
