Chapter 731 (1/2)
Because shanghuan is not a simple place, especially for Xiang Huaxing.
Eighty years ago, apart from Queen's Road Central, the commercial centers of Xiangjiang were Sheung Wan and Wan Chai. Foreign firms and Chinese importers and exporters are concentrated in the area of Avenue central and Wenxian street, while triangle pier and Wan Chai in Sheung Wan are mostly small businesses, stalls, markets, workshops and so on. At that time, industry was almost zero, and even handicraft industry was very few. Most of those who sold their labor for a living were ”Guli” (porters). Most of these figures are concentrated in Sheung Wan and Wan Chai.
In order to find a way out, it was very difficult to avoid friction and disputes. In addition, the police force of Xiangjiang authorities was very weak at that time. Most of the disputes or fights in these areas were ignored unless they caused human lives. In this way, there was no order in the lower class at that time. It is not hard to imagine the chaos.
Solemnly, I once heard an old man belonging to ”he'anle” say that at that time, a Dongguan peddler named Mai Yuxiang came to Xiangjiang from Yangcheng to make a living. When he was in Yangcheng, he took part in the ”Hongsheng meeting” organized by Heise society at that time. When I came to Xiangjiang, I saw this group of people, who are full of stars and moon, and shoulder to shoulder, often have conflicts in order to fight for territory, customers, stalls, interests and other interests day and night; Big fight, blood five steps, this is not to make a living, but desperate. Therefore, the organization of ”Hongsheng meeting” was initiated to unite the strength of market vendors in case of disputes.
Other people in various industries saw that the move of selling fish auspicious immediately took effect. They also realized that unity is strength, so they followed suit one after another. They successively set up more than ten Tangkou based on their industries or regions.
After the establishment of Tangkou, once there was a fight, it became a matter between Tangkou and Tangkou. So the problem is more serious. Since the establishment of each Tangkou, there have been nearly ten big fights in Wan Chai, Sheung Wan and West Wan. Although the corpses were not everywhere and the blood flowed into a river, there were several homicide cases. As a result, it naturally attracted the attention of the Hong Kong authorities. In addition to ordering the suspects to be arrested, the police department was also ordered to closely monitor the activities of these gateways. For a time, the two are incompatible, and the situation is very dangerous.
Until the first year of Xuantong, in the ”Yongyi hall” of more than ten halls, there was a ”Yinshi person” with mixed name of ”black bone benevolence”, who initiated activities to unite all the halls, live in peace, share happiness and difficulties together. In case of disputes and frictions, they should also be solved by means of ”talking about the number”. When it is absolutely necessary, they should not resort to force. Even if it comes to the point of ”having to fight”, it is necessary to negotiate a designated time and place to have a showdown. No matter who wins or loses, the government must not be alarmed. This proposal has won the support of all the members of the church. In the same year, on the Dragon Boat Festival, the first ”meeting” was held, which was also the first ”Hongmen meeting” in the history of Hong Kong.
After the Hongmen meeting, the gates of all roads tended to be stable, and the Xiangjiang authorities were happy to see this situation, so they naturally let it go.
Shanghuan is the place where the Hongmen conference was held. It can be said that shanghuan is a sacred place in the heart of Xiangjiang's Heise club. If any guild occupies the upper ring, it means that it is in the forefront of Xiangjiang Heise club.
Xiang Huaxing's Xin Yi'an also has a hall in Sheung Wan, where even the annual Dragon's head meeting is held.
And Xiang Huaxing actually had an accident in Sheung Wan, which is obviously extraordinary.
A faint sense of vigilance rose in the solemn heart.
After hanging up the phone, he walked solemnly back and forth in the room for a moment, suddenly changed into a comfortable training suit and walked out of the villa quickly.
After that, he took a bus to Sheung Wan and found the Xinglong Building as the Secretary said.
This is an office building that looks like nothing wrong from the outside. There are white-collar hardcover constantly in and out, it seems very lively.
But solemnity found that most of the people who came in and out were ”four or nine kids” in suits.
Sijiuzai is the general name of the bottom thugs of Heise club, that is, Ma Zai. Above them are ”straw sandals”.
Straw sandals are responsible for the contact work, but in Xiangjiang's black meeting, the position of ”straw sandals” is just a matter of preparation, which is basically meaningless.
Above ”straw sandals” is ”white paper fan”“ The ”white paper fan” is also the military division at the entrance of each hall. During the semi open activities organized by the black and astringent society, one ”zuoguan” and one ”Quanshu” are stationed at each entrance of the hall to handle the affairs of the hall, while the ”Quanshu” is not a ”white paper fan”. In the event of foreign negotiations or the brewing of ”open film” (fighting), the ”white paper fan” must carry out the task of ”sending troops to deploy generals and devising strategies”.
The white paper fan has ”red stick” on it, but it is a more famous position. He is a high-level thug in Tangkou. He has to be good at his own Kung Fu so that he can hold Tangkou. It is similar to the ancient vanguard generals.
The biggest one in Tangkou is the incense master, who is the boss of real power. However, there are one or more ”marshals of the second route” under the incense Lord, but they are of no practical use, similar to the current honorary headmaster. It's just a name. It's not involved in guild decision-making.
There are so many four or nine young people in this office building. It's obvious that what happened inside should be related to Xiang Huaxing.
However, with so many forty-nine guards, how can we get in? Is it hard to break through?
Observe solemnly for a while, suddenly have a plan, then walk to the building.
When he reached the door, he was stopped by two forty-nine boys.
