Chapter 128: The Jinhong Society Moves Out
Soon, Hu Jian and his team returned to the Nanshan Security Office next to the headquarters. The Nanshan Security Office was the external name of the Intelligence Department.
Xiao Lin and others stood thirty meters away from the Security Office and witnessed Hu Jian and others bringing Liang Xuecai into the Security Office.
It’s not that they don’t want to move forward, but the streets here are blocked by the army. They have just seen the fierceness of the police in the restaurant, so they dare not act recklessly now. These people really dare to shoot.
Xiao Lin said to the people around him, "Five of you stay here, and the rest of you come back with me and tell the leader."
"Okay, Brother Xiaolin." The five people who were called responded immediately.
In a large house in the south of Nanling City, seven or eight big men were sitting on chairs in the hall.
One person said dissatisfiedly: "President, most of those soldiers have left. What do you have to worry about? Just talk to that damn commander directly."
"When Ma Jincen was here, he was very polite to our Jinhong Club."
Liang Qiusheng, who was sitting at the head of the table, just smiled and said nothing. A man in his mid-thirties with fair skin sitting opposite the man who had just spoken said, "Master Zhao, you can't say that."
"Although the two sides got along relatively well when Ma Jincen was here, we won't turn against him unless necessary, and we won't end up in trouble if things get badly awry."
"After this new warlord takes office, he will not only maintain public order, but also develop people's livelihood, industry and commerce. But before we understand his temper, we must act with caution."
"Be careful? That's an easy thing for Mr. Li to say." Hall Master Zhao sneered.
"Since they moved into Nanshan, the police in various cities have changed. Not only do they not allow us to collect protection money, but they also ban opium dens and casinos."
"If this continues, the brothers of the Jinhong Society will have no chance of survival."
Ever since Fang Jian assigned more than 6,000 people to serve as police officers, the public security in Nanshan Province has improved significantly compared to the past. There have been fewer cases of blatant extortion, theft, and robbery, and a lot of criminals have been arrested.
Those who committed crimes were caught and sent to build roads. The free labor enabled Nanshan Province to complete the first phase of the road construction project more quickly.
Hall Master Zhao and Mr. Li argued for a few more sentences, and the atmosphere gradually became tense. Liang Qiusheng, who was in charge, finally stopped them: "Okay, you two are both members of the Jinhong Society, so don't hurt the harmony."
"This is a test for the new warlord. We have more than 20,000 brothers in the Jinhong Society. We may not be good at fighting, but it is not difficult to kill one or two people."
"It all depends on how the other party handles it. The best outcome is that they can negotiate with us and give us more benefits."
"Even if the other party wants to use force, Nanshan Province is not a place where these warlords can decide for themselves."
After hearing what Liang Qiuxiang said, Mr. Li understood that there must be some gentry in Nanshan Province who had reached a consensus with the leader of the meeting.
At this moment, Brother Wang rushed into the hall and shouted, "Master, it's bad, the young helmsman has been arrested."
"Xuecai was arrested?" Liang Qiu Sheng stood up and walked to Brother Wang who had just run into the lobby and was panting and asked.
Brother Wang nodded and introduced: "We, together with the young helmsman, spread the news of the college's occupation of land in the teahouse, and the police arrested the man we invited."
"The young helmsman tried to argue with the police, but was also arrested by the police."
After listening to Brother Wang's story, Liang Qiusheng angrily asked, "How many of you are there? Is the house in your hands just for show? Why did you let the police take the teaching materials away like this?"
Faced with Liang Qiu Sheng's three consecutive questions, Brother Wang lowered his head and dared not speak.
Although they were armed and there were quite a few of them, the police were fully armed.
It's ok for them to be brave and aggressive, and of course they can still show off their power to those policemen who dare not shoot. But if they really have to face fully armed policemen who dare to shoot, they really don't have the courage to challenge them.
There were two tough guys who pulled out their guns at that time, but what happened to them? They were shot to pieces.
"Tell all the brothers in the gang to gather with their weapons." Liang Qiu Sheng ordered while suppressing his anger.
Mr. Li answered and went to make arrangements. Liang Qiusheng looked at Brother Wang and asked coldly, "Where did they take Xuecai? The police station?"
"No, I don't know. Xiao Lin has caught up with the policemen. There should be news soon." Seeing Liang Qiuxiang's angry look, Brother Wang couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Ten minutes later, Mr. Li returned to the lobby and came to Liang Qiusheng's side and whispered, "Master, the brothers at the headquarters have all gathered. There are about 500 of them, all with weapons."
"Quickly gather the people in Nanling. Five hundred people are too small." Liang Qiu Sheng said dissatisfiedly.
Mr. Li did not dare to delay and immediately went to gather the members of the Golden Red Society in Nanling as instructed.
The Golden Red Society has no fewer than 20,000 members in Nanling, and all together in the entire Nanshan Province, there are almost 30,000 members.
Half an hour later, before all the members had gathered, Xiao Lin had already returned to the headquarters of the Jinhong Society. He entered the lobby and introduced Liang Qiusheng, "President, the young helmsman was captured by them and taken to the Nanshan Provincial Security Department."
"I sent five brothers to guard there to prevent them from moving the young helmsman again."
"Well, you did a good job. You will get your reward later. But where is this Nanshan Security Office?" Liang Qiu Sheng first praised Xiao Lin, and then asked in confusion.
Xiao Lin was very excited when he heard about the reward, and then introduced: "The Nanshan Security Office is next to the former Governor's Office."
"The former Military Governor's Office has now been renamed the Nanshan Army Headquarters."
Liang Qiuxiang waved his hand and asked Xiaolin and Brother Wang to go down together. He turned around and paced back and forth in the lobby, anxiously waiting for Mr. Li to gather the crowd.
The Hall Master Zhao sensed the solemn atmosphere and asked in a low voice, "President, after gathering the brothers, what should we do?"
Although he had just been the loudest in shouting, he was still a little afraid when he really had to face the government troops.
"What to do? I will surround their damn security department first. If they don't hand over the people, then let the brothers go to the streets to rob them." Liang Qiu Sheng glanced at Master Zhao and said in a cold voice.
"I want to let this new warlord know that if he offends me, Liang Qiusheng, there will be no peace in Nanshan Province."
Nearly an hour later, Mr. Li walked into the lobby again: "Master, the brothers are all gathered in the nearby streets."
"Okay, follow me." Liang Qiu Sheng stood up and went towards the Nanshan Security Department.
After Liang Qiusheng walked out of the Golden Red Society headquarters, 500 members equipped with box guns followed him. Together with nearly 20,000 people in the nearby streets, a group of people marched towards the Nanshan Security Office.
"These people are from the Golden Red Society, right? What are they going to do?"
"Hmph, what else can they do? What good can these people do? The warlord should give these scoundrels a good lesson."
As a group of people walked by, people on the street began to talk about it.
Of course, most people have a very bad impression of the Jin Honghui. After all, these people are extortionate and act rampantly. Although they have been more honest recently, they are still worrying.
