Chapter 383 [truce] (1)
Bai Yunfei was also very annoyed. Although he was not the leader of the war, he was not able to become a bystander as he wished. In this battle that spread to the two concessions, shootings occurred in both his theaters and a man-made fire. If it were not for the timely discovery, his Dahua theater would have encountered the same fate as the New World.
The two concession police stations joined forces to enforce the law, but the effect was very little. This war that swept the concession showed no sign of quellation, but instead became more and more intense.
The fire at the city gate affected the pond fish, so Bai Yunfei specially visited Luo Lie and Ye Qinghong.
During this period, Luo Lie was busy with the renovation of Yupu Wharf, while Ye Qinghong was busy preparing for their wedding. Although they knew that it was not peaceful recently, they did not pay much attention.
Bai Yunfei also knew that it was a bit pretentious to visit him, so he specially prepared the latest red Cadillac.
When Luo Lie saw Bai Yunfei bringing so many gifts, he couldn't help but smile and said, "You are so polite. We are all old friends. You can come here to have tea at any time, so why do you have to be so grand?"
Bai Yunfei said: "I heard that you are preparing for the wedding. Getting married is a major event in life. I have thought about it and I should send this car first. You can come in handy on the day of the wedding."
Luo Lie walked around the car and smiled and said, "Qinghong is going to shop, she will definitely like it when she comes back."
Bai Yunfei said, "It's good to like it. Miss Ye has a high vision, so I'm worried that she won't look down on it." Luo Lie invited Bai Yunfei to have tea, but Bai Yunfei asked to walk outside. The two walked along the tree-lined avenue in the yard towards the small lake.
Bai Yunfei said straight to the point: "There is no peace in Huangpu recently. Zhao Huchen was assassinated, and the Kaishan Gang and the Zhang family have started a war."
Luo Lie said: "The fisherman is profitable when fighting against the snipe and clam, but you are not very happy to see how you look."
Bai Yunfei said: "A fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond. Only by being harmonious can we make money. Although both of them are my competitors, they have always been peaceful. When Zhao Huchen dies, they will soon support another person. These foreigners will not see me as the dominant one."
Luo Lie nodded, Bai Yunfei saw this very thoroughly. Foreigners do not want the concession to remain stable for a long time, and it is easy to catch fish in the muddy waters. Everyone knows this truth.
Bai Yunfei said: "Zhao Huchen and I have reached a tacit understanding. Zhang Lingkong is the chess piece they used to disrupt the concession. After Zhao Huchen died, I have to face Zhang Lingkong."
Luo Liedao: "It would be too reckless to shoot Zhao Huchen."
Bai Yunfei said: "There are probably Zhang Lingfeng's actions. Anyway, Kaishan Gang took the account on his head and said that Zhang Lingfeng could not leave Huangpu alive."
Luo Lie said: "Zhang Lingfeng's situation is not good."
Bai Yunfei said: "Their Zhang family has a good relationship with the upper class. Now the Kaishan Gang has become a rat crossing the street. Everyone shouts to beat him. I don't think the Kaishan Gang's territory will be swallowed by the Zhang family." He paused and said: "I came to you today because I want you to talk to Miss Ye to see if you can ask the consul to come forward to coordinate this matter. The two sides will temporarily quit the battle."
Luo Lie said: "It's rare that you can actually have such an idea."
Bai Yunfei said: "The final outcome of Kaishan Gang going on like this is to be wiped out by the military and police. They are over, and they may have to deal with me next. Zhang Lingkong is not simple, and Kaishan Gang cannot fight him." Only by ceasefire can the Kaishan Gang recover. Bai Yunfei hopes that even if the Kaishan Gang cannot be revived, it will not be destroyed. It is definitely a wise decision to leave Zhang Lingkong with an enemy in Huangpu.
Luo Lie said: "Do you want Mr. Monpero to mediate?"
Bai Yunfei said: "I will be responsible for Kaishan Help. If Mr. Monpero can come forward, there will be a high possibility of a truce."
Luo Lie nodded. Although Bai Yunfei's motive was for his own interests, the war in the concession had affected the lives of many people, shattered many families, and left many lives innocently. However, this time Luo Lie was not sure enough to convince Monpero. As Bai Yunfei said, these foreigners did not want a situation where the family was dominant. After Zhao Huchen's death, he would inevitably build an emerging force to compete with Bai Yunfei, and a calm concession was not in their interests.
Ye Qinghong happened to be back. Bai Yunfei's generous gift made her very much like. She had taken a fancy to this car before, but she wanted to buy it at least until next year. Unexpectedly, Bai Yunfei could do it.
Ye Qinghong knew very well that politeness must be something for others. After asking, she understood Bai Yunfei's intention. She shook her head and said, "I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
"What?" Bai Yunfei said in surprise.
Ye Qinghong said: "It seems that your news is not well-informed. Monperot's family went to Siam for vacation yesterday and probably won't be back until the end of September."
Bai Yunfei said, "What a coincidence?" He immediately realized that the old fox Monpero might have deliberately chosen to avoid it at this time. When he came back, the war in the concession would almost be settled.
Ye Qinghong said: "You will not receive any reward without merit. You should keep this car for yourself."
Bai Yunfei smiled and said, "Ms. Ye thinks that I have another idea to give gifts. Haha, you should be kind to you. This car is indeed a wedding gift I gave to you. How can I get the gifts I gave to you again?"
Seeing that he insisted, Ye Qinghong had to accept it.
Bai Yunfei said: "I heard that the initiator of this war was Zhang Lingfeng?"
Ye Qinghong said: "This way, I'll talk to him to see if he can change his mind."
Zhang Lingkong put the ticket in his hand in front of Zhang Lingfeng. Zhang Lingfeng glanced at him and said coldly: "What do you mean?"
Zhang Lingkong said: "It's not interesting. Uncle asked you to go back. I have bought all the train tickets for you. I have arranged the things along the way."
Zhang Lingfeng picked up the ticket and tore it apart in front of Zhang Lingkong.
Zhang Lingkong said: "You are so willful. Zhao Huchen has been killed by you. Even if you have any revenge, you have already avenged it."
Zhang Lingfeng raised his head and looked at Zhang Lingkong coldly and said, "Who said I killed Zhao Huchen? I didn't touch him, why should I count this on my head?"
"You didn't touch him? Who else would hate him so much besides you?"
Zhang Lingfeng said: "Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. Why should I take this account on my head? Why should I burn the new world? I will never leave Huangpu if I don't pull the Kaishan Gang out of the roots."
Zhang Lingkong said angrily: "You are so enough. Now the concession is full of smoke, and our business can hardly continue."
Zhang Lingfeng said: "Who wants to do business, our Zhang family has no need to do business. You are just managing the business for us. What should you do? It's not your turn to make trouble."
Zhang Lingkong said, "I don't want to care about you either. As for the business here, my uncle invited me here. Since he gave me power, I know what he should do. Also, uncle was really angry this time. If you don't go back, he will deprive you of all positions in the army and ask me to stop your pocket money. If there is no military position and no money, who do you think will do your job for you?"
张凌峰被他问住了.
Zhang Lingkong said: "If you continue to make trouble like this, you will only let others laugh at it."
张凌峰道:“我没杀赵虎臣!”
张凌空点了点头道:“我信你!”
Zhang Lingfeng said: "I won't leave, I must find out this matter. I can't leave with a vain injustice."
Ye Qinghong's visit was the best news for Zhang Lingfeng. When he came to the living room and saw Ye Qinghong who was already waiting there, he finally had a smile on his face: "Qinghong? I thought they lied to me and thought you could not come to see me."
Ye Qinghong said: "That big thing happened to you. As a friend, I should come to visit you for your sake and reason. I hope you won't blame me for being late."
Zhang Lingfeng said: "I'm very happy if you can come. What? Your fiancé didn't come with you."
叶青虹道:“他有自己的事情.”
张凌峰道:“听说你们要结婚了?”
叶青虹点了点头,满脸的幸福.
In Zhang Lingfeng's opinion, Ye Qinghong is more beautiful than in the past, radiant and beautiful as if she was covered with a halo. He knew that it was all because of Luo Lie. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous. He had known Ye Qinghong for so many years, but she was still indifferent to her pursuit.
叶青虹道:“你不打算回满洲吗?”
Zhang Lingfeng said: "Why do you want to go back? I thought you would invite me to your wedding."
Ye Qinghong smiled and said, "I have discussed with Luo Lie. We will not hold the wedding, so we will prepare two people to get married quietly."
Zhang Lingfeng said: "Marriage is a major event in life. You can't marry yourself so confusedly. Luo Lie wouldn't be so stingy, right?"
叶青虹道:“他才不小气.”
When Zhang Lingfeng saw Ye Qinghong, he immediately took the initiative to protect Luo Lie. He knew in his heart that only Luo Lie was in his heart, and he would never have a chance in his life. He sighed and said, "It seems that he won't invite me anymore, it doesn't matter. I will also give you a gift."
Ye Qinghong said: "I actually have one more thing to come today."
张凌峰道:“什么事情?”
Ye Qinghong said: "You and the Kaishan Gang are having a lot of trouble, and now the entire concession is in panic."
Zhang Lingfeng said: "It was them who caused trouble first, we are fighting back."
Ye Qinghong said: "No matter what the cause is, this situation is not suitable for continued development. Many people have died. And even if you can completely eliminate the Kaishan Gang, the managers of the concession will soon build new power. They will not allow a single-on-one situation to appear."
Zhang Lingfeng said: "When did you start to care about this kind of thing?"
Ye Qinghong said: "The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond. Your fight has affected the interests of too many people. Even our Yupu Pier was forced to stop work."
张凌峰道:“我没杀赵虎臣.”
