The Rise of Manjianghong

Chapter 93 Get me out

In the room with only one window, the sunlight shines through the window into the room, and there are some folders and other things on the table.

Two people in the room are sitting opposite. One in a police uniform and the other in a suit, smoke permeated the room, and the smell of cigars also permeated the room.

"Mr. Chen!"

Looking at the man in front of him, Jack's eyes did not hide his dissatisfaction.

"If Catherine hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have come here at all!"

He extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand, and Jack stared at the Chinese who beat Charlie, the fat man, who was still lying in the hospital.

"I know!"

Chen Moran nodded. Jack would come to the cell to see him, which was beyond his expectation. The two were just one-sided acquaintance. Although the two knew each other, it was also because of that side of that side, there was a gap between the two.

"Ji Li..."

"Ji Li is a good woman, but I'm not suitable for her!"

Before Jack finished speaking, Chen Moran went on to say it himself.

Leave Ji Li! It was an additional condition when he cooperated with Catherine. Originally, he had no feelings for Ji Li, so he accepted Catherine's suggestion. Since then, he has never met Ji Li again. Although she has come to find herself, she will be stopped outside the door every time.

Cooperation, always like this, will always pay some price.

Chen Moran's words only made Jack frown. If it hadn't been for the reason to control him, maybe he would really punch this man.

"Ji Li is a little girl!"

Chen Moran nodded and agreed with Jack. Ji Li was not old, only 19 years old.

"She is like my sister. She is very simple. She fell in love with you because of your music. At that time, my wife advised her that a European should not fall in love with Chinese people, but... I want to know why you don't want to see her!"

When he saw Chen Moran hear his sister, the expression on his face only made Jack angry for a while. He never had any crooked thoughts about Ji Li. He loved his wife, and Ji Li was only his sister, and she was also the couple's favorite sister.

"I said that we are not suitable for each other. As you said, Europeans should not fall in love with Asians, and the same Asians should not fall in love with Europeans, right?"

Chen Moran smiled and responded with Jack's words, and then he clicked the soot.

"I don't think you came here today to discuss the emotional dispute between me and Ji Li, are you?"

He lowered his head slightly, and Chen Moran looked up at Jack again.

"How much insurance money do you need? Tell me the number! I'm definitely going out today!"

You must go out today, because Zhang Jing will take people to "rob" the warehouse tonight. As the boss and the behind-the-scenes planner, he does not want to stay in prison.

"It smells bad here. To be honest, this is not a prison, but a pigsty!"

"I also want you to go out! After all, I promised Catherine.

Jack looked at Chen Moran helplessly, showing a very helpless expression.

"Although Catherine is willing to pay you a guarantee of 50,000 yuan and provide a guarantee at the same time, you should know that Charlie is the director of the Ministry of Industry. Now he is still lying in the hospital, and the Ministry of Industry Bureau has ordered the central patrol room that at least before you go to court, it is impossible to release you!"

As soon as he heard this, Chen Moran scolded hatefully.

"The foreign devil of the dog!"

Jack frowned, but listened to Chen Moran.

"Don't be angry, I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding those damn foreign devils!"

Silence!

Jack chose to face Chen Moran's scolding with silence.

Although he hates those foreign devils in his heart, Chen Moran also understands that although this concession is in the territory of the Chinese people, no matter what, the Chinese are also second-class citizens in this concession. If they smoke Charlie, naturally they will always kill themselves.

"Is there any way to let me out?"

Jack shook his head. Although he didn't want to help this person, after Catherine begged him, he still came to the central patrol room, but the case was far more difficult than he thought.

"The person you beat is not an ordinary person. If it is an ordinary person, it may be very simple. Manager Xiao of your company has gone to the Shanghai County Government office and asked Shanghai Road for help, trying to negotiate directly with the British consul through Shanghai Road. However, I don't think it will help, even if you are handed over to the "trial official" for interrogation. What's more, what Chinese officials are most afraid of now is to cause international disputes, so Shanghai Road will not help this. It's true that you beat people to the point of injury. If it is handed over to the court, I think you may stay in prison for two to three years!"

Charlie's words only made Chen Moran frown. At the same time, he hated the impulse at that time in his heart. It was true that the impulse was the devil.

Two to three years!

No was in prison for two or three years, and everything was over.

"Is there any other way?"

"There is another way..."

Almost as soon as the servant introduced Xiao Yuren into the door, he kowtowed to Shanghai Dao Yuan Shuxun and knelt on the ground and cried.

"Please save my chairman! Now you are the only one who can save my chairman!"

Yuan Shuxun, who had known the reason for a long time, shook his hand.

"Do you think I really have that much face? When did those foreigners sell it to us Chinese people for face? Now in the face of the national disaster, even the capital is occupied by others, and the two palaces are still hunting in the west. In fact, the chairman of your family is really... Oh..."

Yuan Shuxun sighed, but it was a pity that he was there. In the afternoon, he heard the story of "Chen Lame, an industrial company, angrily beat the public director Charlie". Although he shouted for Chen Lame, he was shocked and cold sweated out after shouting.

"Unyang, get up and talk."

In the past few months, Yuan Shuxun, who has long been an old acquaintance with Xiao Yuren, ordered.

"If the adult doesn't agree to save my chairman, I will kneel here."

Xiao Yuren knelt on the ground and continued to kowtoe his head. Almost after Catherine informed him that Chen Moran was caught in prison by the central patrol room. As soon as he asked the reason, he and Catherine were divided into two ways. Catherine went to find friends in the patrol room so that Chen Moran would not be wronged, and he directly came to Shanghai Taoist government in a carriage.

Chen Moran is a Chinese. Although it happened in the concession, according to the usual practice, cases involving Chinese people have always been tried by Chinese and foreign meetings. As long as Lord Yuan is willing to help, he can always play a starting role.

"Lord Liu once believed in Yuan that Yuan should take more care of your chairman and industrial company. Your chairman is finally young. I don't know that those foreigners are now jealous of Pudong. Now they are not in a hurry to avoid them. The brand has been hanging for decades and negotiating for decades. But Chen squeid..."

Yuan Shuxun looks like a pity, and he is indeed a pity for the splunder in his heart. A few months ago, when he first took office, when he received the governor's fold, he didn't think so, but now the industrial company and Chen's squeous man have extraordinary uses for him.

"The people receive their profits, and the officials receive their achievements!"

Whether it is an official supervisor or a commercial office, as long as it is in the Pudong Development Zone on the boundary of Shanghai, Yuan Shuxun, as a parent official, can't run away. Because of this, almost as soon as the text of the governor's office of Liangjiang, he quickly approved the industrial company "inside and outside the city of Pudong Development Zone" It is also this regulation that allows Pudong's affairs to be undertaken by the General Engineering Bureau. The officials bypass it and discuss everything with the Engineering Bureau.

In addition to the governor's face, Yuan Shuxun linked Na Pudong to his official position.

But even so, because it involves foreigners and extraordinary decent foreigners, Yuan Shuxun has no confidence, and even hates the impulse of Chen slitt in his heart. Who doesn't provoke the foreigner, the foreigner, and even the empress dowager suffered losses in the hands of foreigners, not to mention his businessman.

Although he was annoyed by Chen's impulse, after a moment of meditation, Yuan Shuxun still said.

"Not Yang, your ancestor moved to the Shanghai concession when the bandits were in chaos. Although this concession is the boundary of the Qing Dynasty, you also know that it is a place for foreigners. Charlie is a decent foreigner, and he is also a director of the concession. You don't know that the British consul has protested to me. ...It's difficult!"

He shook his head and sighed. Yuan Shuxun had pity and helplessness on his face, but he didn't say that when he met Counsellor Bruce of the consulate in the official hall before, he had already said, "Chen Moran is a returnee from abroad and has not yet been naturalized in the Qing Dynasty. His behavior has nothing to do with me!" Come on.

What he said was not for others who didn't want to make trouble. Now that the state affairs are not peaceful, Yuan Shuxun has to sell Chen's tulazi!

Yuan Shuxun was speechless for a long time, and Xiao Yuren understood that there might be many twists and turns in it, and his face darkened.

"Ah, Weiyang, don't worry, although I really can't do anything about it, I will make it clear to the governor today, and the crime of beating people is not a great crime of cutting off my head! At most, he will be sentenced to two or three years of apprenticeship. At that time, the face of foreigners will be maintained, and they will no longer care about it. I only need to negotiate with the Ministry of Industry Bureau, and then you can make the silver stay for two or three months at most, and then it will be released! Don't worry!"

Don't worry... What Lord Yuan said was easy, but Xiao Yuren knew that if it was really judged, he really didn't mention it at that time. Even if he only stayed for a few months, the impact on the company was also unpredictable. But Yuan Shuxun's words can't be clearer, and there is nothing he can do about it! I can only ask the governor!

"Hmm! Wei Yang, you still need to tie the bell to untie the bell. I'm afraid that's all I can do. You might as well think about it in the concession.

After a statement, Yuan Shuxun was a teacup. When the servant beside him saw the master's movements, he raised his chin and shouted.

"Detending guests!"

When he left the Shanghai Yamen and was about to get on the carriage, Xiao Yuren saw Miss Catherine's white carriage parked behind his carriage. As soon as the window of the carriage was pushed open and he saw Catherine in the car, Xiao Yuren walked over and got into the carriage. There was also an acquaintance in the carriage, Jack, the chief inspector of the Zhabei Patrol Room.

"Miss Catherine, Inspector Louis! Thank you for your hard work!"

After getting into the carriage, Xiao Yuren thanked the two of them. Looking at his expression, Catherine and Jack knew that the result was not ideal.

"Untie the bell still needs to be tied, and Lord Yuan can't do nothing!"

He shook his head helplessly and sighed. Xiao Yuren only felt powerless in his heart. It was not until now that he really understood what the country in the "concession" meant.

"Yes! Now there is only one person who can save Mr. Chen!"

Jack and Catherine looked at each other and said.

"Who?" Xiao Yu was overjoyed and looked at Jack quickly.

"Jacob? Sassoon!"

"Jacob? Sassoon!"

Xiao Qian was stunned. It was the greedy poisonous snake. He could fully imagine what kind of extortion conditions Sassoon would make if he begged him.

"I have already mentioned it to Mr. Chen. He only said one thing and got me out of here!"

Listening to Jack's words, Xiao Yan nodded bitterly.

"Mr. Jack, I'm going to see you now. Please arrange it!"

At this time, the two carriages had left Shanghai Daoyamen and drove towards the concession in the north. Xiao Yuren in the car looked at the sunset outside the window, and the complexity in his heart was beyond what Catherine or Jack could understand.

Under the sunset, the carriage drove along the rammed earth and gravel road on the bank of the Huangpu River towards the concession. On the Huangpu River, three sand boats rowed towards Shanghai County on the other side of the river under the swing of the boatman.

In the cabin, there were about 40 strong men in black, and most of them sat without saying a word. Zhang Jing looked at the dozens of brothers beside him. In this team, there were people who drew life and death lots. Before leaving the ship, no one knew what they were going to do, but they also knew what they had done. Maybe it was a matter of losing their heads.

"Brothers!"

Zhang Jing clenched his fist and looked at the people in front of him.

"I, Zhang Jing, have been suffering for half my life. Since I came to Shanghai, I haven't had enough to eat a few meals. There is an old woman at home to serve me and let me suffer. It is my unfilial son. Since I entered the industrial company, the boss has been waiting for me. Today, if the boss has something to do with us, even if he repays the kindness, we should also help with this matter. The boss has done it!"

The people on the boat looked at Zhang Jing, and then looked left and right. They knew that Captain Zhang was telling the truth. The boss really treated the big guys well, and at the same time, he hugged his fists and returned the salute.

"Captain, what's the boss's plan? The captain just orders!"

"It's a saying that wealth is in danger!"

Zhang Jing shouted in a low voice and looked at the people in front of him. His voice became colder and colder.

"Today, the boss gave us a chance. First, we can repay the boss's grace to us. Second, the boss promised. If this happens, everyone will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!"

The voice was not loud, but it came into everyone's ears. When I heard the silver, I opened my eyes wide at the same time, and my eyes were full of incredible appearance.

One hundred taels of silver! For these people who are used to it, it is an astronomical figure. They even dreamed that they would have so much money one day.

The eagerness in everyone's eyes made Zhang Jing nod with satisfaction. Whether it was to repay the boss's grace or for the sake of money, as long as everyone could make this incident, they would be rewarded, but Zhang Jing got appreciation.

Everyone has an opportunity, but not everyone can seize it. After suffering for so many years, he must seize this opportunity.

"Take the guy, remember, no matter what you do now, it has nothing to do with the boss. If you miss it, just say that I am the leader. If someone says..."

Zhang Jing's eyes were cold, but his right hand with a knife was raised, and then he looked at these people fiercely.

"Of course! Of course!"

Several people in the crowd said that the box was quickly sent to people's hands. Everyone was holding long and short knives, and their expression showed nervousness. Many of them were good people, but now the good people have changed.

Rich and noble asked for danger. It was true that he was holding a knife. When he looked at the dock getting closer and closer in the twilight, Zhang Jing only felt that his heart seemed to rise to his throat, and a man appeared on his forehead. The pier was getting closer and closer. When it was dozens of meters away, Zhang Jing waved his hand, and several people behind him bit the dagger and jumped into the Huangpu River. After they jumped, Zhang Jing jumped down the river.

A few minutes later, the first shadow touched the shore. In the empty dock warehouse, dogs barked from time to time. The shadow stuck to the ground and took out an oil paper bag from his arms. He opened the oil paper bag and threw out the meat. The shadows in the water next to the shore mostly sat like this. With the bag of smoke, the original dog barking disappeared.

After a while, Zhang Jing, who had been hiding under the wooden cargo bridge. When he was sure that there was no dog barking, he climbed up the cargo bridge along the wooden pillar of the cargo bridge, greeted people with a knife in his hand, and ran to the lighted hut in the corner of the dock. The black clothes and shadows, only the knife was against the moon.

From time to time, there were bursts of punches in the room. Listening to the sound of punching, Zhang Jing made a gesture to the people behind him, and then lowered his body. His wet fingers made a hole in the paper window. Through the small hole, he saw that five or six strong men were eating meat and punching at the wooden table in the room.

It seems that the dock is basically full of gangs, all of whom are ruthless masters. Zhang Jing and others who have worked on the dock are naturally very clear. With a gesture, a thin man rushed behind Zhang Jing, took out a several layers of oil paper bag from his arms, and opened the oil paper bag, among which there were four bamboo tubes. There are cannon twists on it.

"Brother, just take a look! As long as you throw it in, even the iron man can't stand it!"

The thin man smiled and handed Zhang Jing a bamboo pipe. There were all kinds of people in the engineering team and all kinds of bad ideas. When he spoke, the people next to the door had already buttoned the door back.

When the twisted with fire was burned out, a white smoke spewed out. The thick smoke smelled of pepper. The thin man almost stuffed the bamboo pipe into the room at the moment when the thick smoke gushed out. As soon as it was stuffed in, there was a cough in the room, and then there was a sound of shouting and scolding, and the door was buckled back. Someone also began to bump into each other.

One, two, three, four... Four bamboo pipes were stuffed in, with thick smoke accompanied by shouting and scolding, but more violent coughing.

"Open the door!"

As soon as the door was opened, as soon as the person covering his mouth and nose cough rushed out, he was knocked to the ground by a stick. In less than a bag of cigarettes, the six guards on the dock were knocked over and tied up by the rope.

"Let them come over and go to Warehouse 3!"

Zhang Jing shouted and ran to the No. 3 warehouse. He pried open the chain on the door of the warehouse. With the oil lamp light, he lifted the canvas and saw only wooden boxes with foreign characters.

"Brother Zhang, what's going on here!"

He slapped the back of the questioning head, and Zhang Jing shouted.

"Don't bother, move it for me quickly, and finish all the boxes here!"

At this time, the people on the big ship have come. The hundred catties of boxes are basically carrying one by one, running towards the wharf cargo bridge dozens of feet away. The boxes are directly on the sand boat. These people may not be the head of the expert in black work, but this moving things is their old job. Although they touch the dark, the speed is even flat. It's time to hurry up.

"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

Zhang Jing, who was carrying a knife next to him, looked at the brothers who were carrying boxes. His heart had been pinched into a small handful. When he saw the first ship leaving the dock, Zhang Jing looked in the direction of the concession. He knew that as long as he succeeded this time, he would have the capital to advance.

Life is sometimes like this. When a person is working hard to change his own destiny, another person also needs to face the unknown fate. For Chen Moran, who is in prison, the only thing he needs to consider now is how to get out of this cell.

"Get me out!"

As soon as he saw Xiao Yu's toughness, Chen Moran spit out five words. He doesn't want to stay in this place for one more day!

"My young master, if you do things so impulsively, will you fall to this point?"

Xiao Yiren began to complain, and what he had been most worried about had finally become a reality.

"Well, when you do things and speak, you always have to your surname. It's all right now!"

He patted the iron railing of the prison door hard, and Xiao Yuren looked like you should be like this. At this time, he did not want to show other emotions, and he would let Chen Moran learn a lesson anyway.

"I know, I won't do it again!"

Chen Moran nodded and looked directly at Xiao Yiren. He was telling the truth, and sometimes he was too impulsive to do things.

"Jack, tell me!"

Xiao Yuren nodded. He came here to ask for Chen Moran's opinion.

"In a word, please, Wei Yang!"

"Sasun is an insatiable master!"

Xiao Yiren's speech reminded Chen Moran that on the way here, he had considered all kinds of possibilities.

"As long as I can go out, as long as the money can solve it is not a big problem!"

"Sometimes, money is not everything. We don't know what Sassoon will want. If he wants Pudong..."

Staring at Chen Moran, Xiao Yiren said what he was most worried about. What he was most afraid of was the real estate king of Shasun, who would take the opportunity to extort the industrial company in Pudong.

"If that's the case..."

Chen Moran's eyes were cold, he lowered his voice, and his eyes were full of cruelty.

"I'll stay here, and then you..."
