The Angry Boss Du
At this moment, Xie Baosheng heard that something had happened to his Emperor Club. He immediately led nearly a hundred of his underlings to the International Settlement, which was very far away. Because there were very few cars in this era, he couldn't afford to give each of his underlings a car. It took him an hour to get here from the French concession in Shanghai!
During this hour, Xie Baosheng could not sit still. There could not be any mistakes in the Emperor Club. If anything happened, Xie Baosheng would not be able to bear the responsibility. Although those 5,000 gold bars were worth 1.8 million yuan, you could not buy them even with 1.8 million yuan!
Gold was a hard currency. It was not allowed to be traded in the Kuomintang-controlled area and was monopolized by the government. Moreover, foreigners in this ocean did not recognize it, only gold!
On the surface, one tael of gold could be exchanged for thirty-five dollars, but in the black market, one tael of gold could be exchanged for more than fifty dollars! Even so, if you want to save up 5,000 gold coins, it will take you several years!
These 5,000 gold bars were half of the Qing Gang's stock. How could he not be anxious? He immediately led his subordinates over in a mighty manner!
"Hey, Mr. Xie! What happened to you? Why did you start a fight in the French concession? Do you know how much impact this matter has caused?”Chief Smith of the International Settlement said to Xie Baosheng seriously!
"Ah! Mr. Smith, you're here too! I'm sorry, this is a check for ten thousand dollars. Take it as the brothers 'errand fee. We won't fight here anymore!”Xie Baosheng hurriedly took out a large amount of money and began to bribe Chief Smith!
"Humph! Mr. Xie, are you preparing to evacuate the Emperor Club from the International Settlement?”Smith questioned. He did not want this money tree to leave his jurisdiction!
"How is that possible? My Emperor Clubhouse is quite popular in the International Settlement. We won't leave the International Settlement, nor will we give the Emperor Clubhouse to others!”Xie Baosheng said firmly!
"That's good. Hurry up and go in and take a look. There might be a big problem with your club. Everyone is dead!”After saying that, Smith led a group of police officers and left! He was already relieved. As long as Xie Baosheng didn't move the club away, it was fine!
"Humph! Yan Xianglong, come out! "Is he dead?" Xie Baosheng shouted loudly, but there was no movement!
Then, he rushed straight to the vault. What he was most worried about was not Yan Xianglong's safety, but the gold here. It was a whole five tons of gold!
He saw the door of the vault open! He immediately sat on the ground! He looked ahead with a blank look in his eyes! All the gold was gone!
"Thank you, Boss! Boss Xie! There was something fishy about this! The people inside seemed to have been killed by one person. The corpses of these brothers were all killed with one shot. There were no extra muzzles on them!
However, even if they were beaten up by one person, it would not be to the extent that these 70 brothers were killed by one person. Could it be that this person had three heads and six arms?
The most unbelievable thing was that there was not a single piece of furniture left. What did the other party want to do? Even if the other party came to find trouble with us, they wouldn't do this!
There was another point. It had been less than two hours since the gunfight ended. How could so much furniture be moved away in such a short time? It was not something that could be done in a short time!”One of Xie Baosheng's subordinates said!
This subordinate's name was Xie Hui. He wasn't as aggressive as Yan Xianglong, but his intelligence was higher. He was one of Xie Baosheng's two assistants, and the other was Yan Xianglong!
Yan Xianglong was in charge of the casino, while Xie Hui was in charge of the tobacco industry! He would also be Xie Baosheng's consultant!
When Xie Baosheng heard Xie Hui's words, he also thought about the strangeness of this matter, but he couldn't figure out who could do this!
An hour later, all the waiters, waitresses, and dancers who had worked here before were gathered! Xie Baosheng listened to Xie Hui's suggestion and prepared to interrogate each of them one by one to see who had the guts to make trouble!
Before the interrogation started, Boss Du came in angrily and slapped Xie Baosheng twice! Xie Baosheng was Boss Du's disciple, but Xie Baosheng was a traitor. He was a traitor in history. After the end of the war, he was dragged out and killed!
Boss Du still had some conscience. Although he was the boss of Shanghai's underground society, he did not lose in terms of national integrity. From the beginning to the end, Boss Du enthusiastically supported the struggle of the Chinese people and put forward six major proposals: Release the arrested students, compensate them, and apologize. Abolish the printing law, abolish the dock donation; Take back the court.
During the war, Boss Du had served as the vice president of the Red Cross Society of China for many years. He had done some beneficial charity work and established many hospitals. At the same time, he also devoted himself to education and established many schools, such as Shanghai Dagong Professional School (predecessor of Jiangsu University of Science and Technology), and donated money to the school. Especially when he was the vice president during the war, he was helping the wounded soldiers transport supplies and building resistance forces. After the Anti-Japanese War began, Boss Du joined the Shanghai Anti-Japanese Support Association and served as a member of the head group and the director of the fund-raising committee. In just over a month, the fund-raising meeting hosted by Boss Du had raised more than 1.5 million yuan in donations to save the country, which greatly supported the war in front.
In 1938, Boss Du also participated in some military operations. Not long after the outbreak of the War of Resistance on August 13, Dai Li was ordered by Jiang Jieshi to conspire with Boss Du to use the gang to form the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Action Committee. The commanders of the first, second, and third teams of the Special Task Force of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Committee of Operations were all Boss Du's students. After the fall of Shanghai, Jiang Jieshi proposed a plan to block the Yangtze River in order to prevent the Japanese navy from invading Jiangxi on a large scale. Boss Du was the first to order his Dada Steamship Company to drive a few ships to the river and sink them. Later, other shipping companies also responded, sinking ships into the river, blocking the Yangtze River channel and delaying the Japanese attack.
Boss Du was a legendary figure in modern Chinese history. He had sneaked into Shanghai from a small gangster and became the leader of the largest gang in Shanghai. He had become a modern industrialist, a social celebrity, and a local leader. He had become an active political figure at that time. Mr. Du had an extraordinary ability to speculate and play with power. He was very respectful to the old men of the former Qing Dynasty, warlords and politicians, high-level party and state officials, social celebrities, and even financial and industrial giants. And the chairman of the high-level officials such as Kong Xiangxi, Song Ziwu, Dai Li, etc., all became close friends with Du's wealthy family. Mr. Du had always yearned for and respected culture. After he made his fortune, he was very close to the cultural world and could deal with the intellectual and cultural world with ease.
"Teacher, you're here!" Xie Baosheng covered his face and lowered his head, not daring to look at Boss Du.
"Hmph, such a big thing happened. Why didn't I come? Who did it? Did they really think that there was no one in the Qing Gang?”Boss Du said domineeringly!
"This, we haven't found out yet. The number 70 brothers written inside are all dead, and Yan Xianglong's whereabouts are unknown! I've just gathered everyone! We're really investigating!" Xie Baosheng didn't dare to speak loudly.
"Then quickly investigate. If you can't find anything, go to hell!”Boss Du said angrily. This was half of the Qing Gang's gold! It was gone just like that! His heart was bleeding.
