Chapter 118: Three Little Four Nine
In a cafe 300 meters away from the Hongyan Martial Arts Museum, Lin Tianchu is sitting opposite the three newly recruited Hong Tai's children, and in front of the other table, there are Shangguan Xiao, Fang Chenglong and two martial arts school disciples who came to watch the fun.
"Brother Long, what position are they in?"
A lively martial arts museum disciple pointed to the three people Lin Tianchu's new recruitment and asked, as if he was also very interested in the underworld and had been inquiring about the underworld.
Fang Chenglong took a look and said, "According to what they said, they are all four, three, two in Hong Taili."
"Four, three, two?" Not only did he ask the disciples of the martial arts school, but even Shangguan Xiao and another person were confused. Fang Chenglong smiled and said, "Come on, let me get rid of illiteracy for you."
As soon as everyone heard the interest, they immediately looked at Fang Chenglong. Fang Chenglong did not say anything in front of people, so he seemed a little nervous.
But fortunately, during this period, he has seen the world with Lin Tianchu and Mu Xuetong, so he soon fell down and began to say, "Hong Tai is a community established in Yangcheng in the 1960s. I believe you know this."
"Uh-huh."
The three nodded and answered. Although Hong Tai is not a super community in the whole Yangcheng, he is the powerful one in Baiyun District alone, so all three of them know a little about Hong Tai's history.
"Most gangster associations in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao call themselves Hongmen, and Hong Tai's community name has a Hong character, so I can also be sure that he pretends to be a branch of Hongmen. Of course, it is unknown whether he is a real Hongmen or a fake Hongmen."
Fang Chenglong continued to say, and the three of them also began to remember the name Hongmen, which is not strange. Legend has it that in Zhou Xingxing's movie Deer Tripod, the king of comedy, the Tiandihui hosted by Chen Jinnan is the predecessor of Hongmen.
"Hongmen is a gangster organization that has not appeared clearly. Up to now, it has been hundreds of years, but they are also full of religion and play a great role in creating a mysterious atmosphere to deter people's hearts. And the religious color is first reflected in the hierarchical functions of the underworld organizations, just as the title of their titles is now mentioned.
When it comes to things about the underworld, it is difficult for Shangguan Xiao, a person who has a lot of contact with Fang Chenglong, to understand that Fang Chenglong used to be only at the bottom of society. Why does he talk about these things like a living dictionary?
Although Shangguan Xiao was puzzled, she did not interrupt, just because he, like the two brothers, heard that he was interested. He looked at Fang Chenglong and hoped that he would continue talking.
"The largest in the community is called the incense master, also known as four or eight nine. But in modern times, there is no such name. The formal one is called the hall, and the oral one is called the leader.
"Oh, oh."
Shangguan Xiao and the other two listened and found that this was in line with the fact. Hong Laotai seemed to be the leader of Hong Tai, and sometimes he was also heard to call him Hong Zaguan.
"At the bottom of the hall are the Marshal of the Second Road, also known as quad, three or eight." The faster Fang Chenglong said, the faster he was. Obviously, he was also used to the atmosphere of this speech. "Under the second-way marshal is the red stick, also known as the fourth, six or forty-second bottom. The red stick is a thug after years of grinding, and is generally one of the few people who can fight in the community. And it is called the double-flowered red stick that is higher than the red stick at the bottom of the hall. It is the best in the gold medal.
"Oh?"
The more the three people listened, the more interested they became. They occasionally heard of red sticks, but it was really the first time they heard of the double-flowered red sticks. The three of them looked at the three people newly recruited by Lin Tianchu at the next table at the same time. I remember that they didn't seem to be red sticks, but how could Lin Tianchu attract them?
"Under the red stick is..." Fang Chenglong couldn't help slowing down the speed of speech when he saw the three people's distractedness, and deliberately aggravated his tone. After attracting everyone's attention, he continued to say, "The red stick is a white paper fan, also known as four one five or ten soles, straw shoes, also known as four three two or nine soles, straw shoes are the lowest in the community. The staff."
Fang Chenglong glanced at the three people of Lin Tianchu's new move, and he didn't understand why Lin Tianchu let go of a pile of red stick paper fans, but he added to these three pairs of straw shoes and blue eyes.
"As for the four-nine after the straw shoes, it is generally known as the small forty-nine or forty-nine, which is the lowest general member of the community. Of course, this is not to include informal members who do not hang blue lanterns and have not yet joined the club."
When everyone heard this, they began to think about it. It turned out that there were not many classifications in the underworld. Doesn't that mean that if there is a heart to mix, how long will it take from the forty-nine to the red stick?
"..."
Fang Chenglong saw the eager expression of two other martial arts disciples except Shangguan Xiao, and immediately knew what they were thinking and couldn't help smiling.
"You don't have to think about it. From the forty-nine to the red stick, you must make great achievements. Do you succeed?" Fang Chenglong gave a blow.
"It's done, why not." The two disciples of the martial arts school looked at each other and thought that no man liked to hear others say that he couldn't do great things.
"Is it possible to kill people?" Fang Chenglong's face darkened and he followed Lin Tianchu for a long time. He slowly cultivated a kind of power.
"It's done!" The two blurted out, but as soon as they finished speaking, they reacted, and their faces changed and became less confident.
"Okay, even if I think you can kill people, let you be promoted to the high position of the red stick, but will you just want to be a red stick at that time?"
People's desires are endless. Even if it is like the emperor in ancient times, when the prince wants to be a prince, and when he becomes a prince, he wants to succeed to the throne. Well, they don't hesitate to kill his father and brother and sit on the throne. They want to become immortals and immortality. Their desire is like a whirlpool. Once they fall into it, it is difficult to get out.
Because of Shangguan Xiao's relationship, Fang Chenglong didn't want the two disciples of the martial arts school to sink, so he had to say a blow, "It's not impossible to be a red stick if you want to be promoted, but are you confident that you can win ten red sticks at the same time?"
"..."
The two disciples of the martial arts school look pale and want to win ten gold medal players at the same time. Do you really think of us as Lin Tianchu?
"As for the second-way marshal, don't even think about it. Generally, the second-way marshal is a shal. Such a person is either a black second generation, a big background, or he is admired by the children in the community during his tenure. When he retires, he is elected as the host and becomes the marshal of the second road."
Fang Chenglong said that it was difficult to climb to a high position in the underworld, and directly dispelled the idea of two disciples of the martial arts school. What really let them dispel the idea was Fang Chenglong's words: "There are 40 to 90 million in the underworld, but none of the 100 can succeed in the job, and the remaining 99 Either he died of revenge or was mediocre for a lifetime.
"Ah..."
The two of them were shocked and found that this underworld was really not easy to get along with.
Listening to Fang Chenglong's introduction from afar, Lin Tianchu couldn't help but have an understanding of the underworld gangs. He couldn't help thinking: "There are gold, pure wine and beauty in the world, but at the same time there are endless beacon killings..."
Lin Tianchu's words shocked the three original Hongtai straw shoes and resonated deeply, thinking about whether they should continue to muddle along.
"What's your name?" Lin Tianchu suddenly looked up, looked at the three people, and said, "With your skills, why are you only a four-three-two in Hongtai?"
"This..." The three looked at each other, and one of them answered, "Mr. Lin, my name is Lu Yu, and his name is Zhan Yi, Shi Ming."
Lu Yu is obviously the head of the three, so it's up to him to introduce it. As soon as Lin Tianchu heard the name he said, he also knew why he could get the approval of the two. Just because he knew how to say anything to face anyone, Lin Tianchu believed that if he faced others, the three names he said would never be correct. It's the name of the flower that mixes on the road.
Lu Yu thought for a moment, and then said to Lin Tianchu, "Hong Tai is not really a branch of Hongmen. He is just a club with Hongmen, so the staff upgrade does not follow the rules of Hongmen."
"What do you press?" Lin Tianchu asked again, and he had vaguely guessed that he had got it.
"As long as you like Master Hong or Marshal Xing of the Second Road, you can be promoted, and these people are generally related to the two of them. As for us..."
"I understand."
Lin Tianchu's heart moved. Seeing the unconvinced expressions of the three of them, he knew that they were all pursuing and ambitious guys.
The underworld is the same as practicing martial arts. If you don't want to go to the next level and don't have this desire to improve and progress, it will really become more and more unbearable, and the more you practice, the worse it will be.
"I can only be a little forty-nine under me, would you like to?" Lin Tianchu suddenly asked.
"Ah..."
The three of them were obviously disappointed for a while. Although they were holding Lin Tianchu's side and one day they would win back Lin Tianchu's game and get back their face, they were still a little uncomfortable to turn them into four or nine.
"If you can do something, you will naturally be promoted. At that time, whether you are four or four or three eight, it depends on your ability." Lin Tianchu's words are very direct. He doesn't need to waste people here.
"Four, three, eight?"
The three people were shocked. One of them came out and didn't want to call the wind and rain. The hall may not dare to think about it, but the red stick, or the second-way marshal, had very deep expectations.
And Lin Tianchu didn't think about whether he wants to build a community or not. If he wants to build it, where does his fund come from? If he wants to build it, where will his manpower go? He just subconsciously thought that he wanted to build a base page to make the gentleman surnamed Qiu hesitate and dare not do anything to the people around him.
