Chapter 100 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop
Lao Quan never told Lin Xiaotang who the person in charge of the National Salvation Army in Tianmu Mountain was. He just mysteriously said that he would know it after meeting him. This made Lin Xiaotang a little confused. Since Qiang Yihu arrived in Shanghai, the National Salvation Army had been hiding in batches.
At the junction of Zhejiang and Anhui, the personnel structure was chaotic. As for who the current commander of the army was, he really couldn't figure it out.
Before leaving, Lao Quan told Lin Xiaotang that the person in charge had told him that if the results of the initial contact were satisfactory, he would meet with Lin Xiaotang in Lin'an to discuss the cooperation between the two parties in detail. Lin Xiaotang agreed immediately.
The time is set for three days later.
In the past two days, Lin Xiaotang had nothing to do in Hangzhou, so he took Huoyan and others to explore the beautiful scenery of Hangzhou. When night fell, he and a few brothers simply found a restaurant by the West Lake and sat down next to it.
From the window position, you can enjoy the night view of the West Lake, listen to the soft and soft Pingtan, and drink the authentic Shaoxing Huadiao. It is quite pleasant.
The moonlight is like water, shining on the sparkling lake. The willows by the lake have not yet withstood the test of the cold winter, and are still swinging their long willow branches leisurely. Couples shuttle among them, making the entire West Lake look tender and tender.
Lin Xiaotang's heart moved, and she clinked her glass with Huoyan beside her. After drinking it down, she said to him with a smile: "When are you and Miss Yulan going to get married?"
Although Huoyan was drinking, his eyes were constantly scanning every move around him. Hearing Lin Xiaotang's words, he accidentally choked on his drink. He wiped the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, "What's the hurry?
Brother Qi, you’re not in a hurry!”
Lin Xiaotang rolled her eyes at him angrily, "Don't talk about me, I'm talking about you now! Your uncle has sent you a few letters. Although he didn't say it clearly, the meaning between the lines was clear. I was a little uncomfortable waiting for him.
I’m tired of it!”
Huoyan was speechless, his face turned red, and he stammered for a while: "This, this, how can I have time to do this right now!"
Lin Xiaotang patted his head in a gesture, "Why don't you have time? After returning to Shanghai, we will start to arrange it. I will accompany you to the Dragon King to propose marriage in person. You are from Mr. Du's place. He and Boss Wan also need to go.
Say hello. The house is ready-made. As for all the appliances and furniture as well as the wedding, don’t worry, Jiayi likes to arrange these things the most. Leave it to her and I will definitely help you get it done properly."
Huo Yan chuckled, scratching the back of his head with his hand, and was so happy that he couldn't speak.
Hearing this, Qiang Yihu, Jiao Da and others raised their glasses to congratulate Huoyan.
Lin Xiaotang pointed at them with a smile, "And you guys, after Huoyan's wedding, it's Jiao Da's turn. I heard that you also have someone you like, so hurry up and do it! Do you understand?"
Jiao Da grinned widely, "Of course, the boss has said that I want to marry her back!"
Lin Xiaotang turned around and looked at Qiang Yihu, "Brother Hu, didn't my sister-in-law go to Nanyang? How is the situation?"
Qiang Yihu's face glowed red, "Haha, the letter that just came didn't say that my wife is from the country. She was frightened and fainted as soon as she got off the boat."
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted, "No way, why did he faint from fright? Is it possible that there are monsters in Nanyang?"
Qiang Yihu quickly corrected him, "No, no, look at my stupid mouth, I almost fainted with joy. Good guy, a new house, and dozens of acres of fertile and good land, even if
You don’t have to worry about living on rent for the rest of your life!”
Everyone was envious.
Lin Xiaotang said with a smile: "Don't be envious. You are all old people who follow me. I will never let you suffer. I said that for those who have families and are willing to go to Nanyang, I will arrange your future life and I will never let you suffer.
You're at a disadvantage, understand? If you don't have a family, you can't blame others, so you should seize the time to find one, but one thing is that you must find a good girl with an innocent fortune, you know?"
Everyone cheered loudly and toasted to Lin Xiaotang together.
…
Several of his subordinates talked happily about the good life in the future. Qiang Yihu came to Lin Xiaotang's side and said, "Boss, I have always wanted to ask, how did you come up with the idea of bringing your brothers' families to Nanyang? Is that difficult?
It’s not a concession and it’s not safe?”
Lin Xiaotang nodded, "I guess you have also felt something. These days, No. 76 is making a lot of noise in the concession. Without the acquiescence of Britain, the United States and France, they would never dare to do this. I am worried that sooner or later, the concession will fall.
In the hands of the Japanese, I am doing this to prepare for a rainy day and leave a way out for us in advance!"
Qiang Yihu couldn't help but take a breath, "Occupying the concession is declaring war on Britain, the United States and France! Can Japan still fight on multiple fronts?"
Just as Lin Xiaotang was about to speak, there was the sound of footsteps on the stairs. Immediately afterwards, his subordinates from outside led in three people.
The three people's noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they could no longer distinguish their original faces. As soon as they saw Lin Xiaotang, they immediately threw themselves forward and said, "Boss Lin, you have to make the decision for our brothers!"
Lin Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that they were Ma Qiwen's three subordinates. He had given them full responsibility for the inspection and collection of material control. Why did he come here at this time and be beaten like this?
One of the staff members named Mo hugged Lin Xiaotang's thigh and cried: "It's simply lawless. We came here to inspect the work under the order of the Ministry of Finance. Who knew we met another group of people who also came to collect supplies, and we
When there was a conflict, they started beating us up without saying a word, not only us, but also the people from the city government were beaten severely by them."
Lin Xiaotang stood up and said, "Old Mo, tell me clearly, which group of people are they?"
Lao Mo burst into tears and said, "They said they were people from the New Asia Peace Promotion Association, and people from Hangzhou Station No. 76 were backing them! They all had guys in their hands. We finally escaped and returned to
As soon as Yu Yuan inquired, we found out that you had come to West Lake, so we searched for you non-stop. Boss Lin, you must make the decision for us!"
"Zhang Xiaolin's people!" Lin Xiaotang's pupils shrank slightly, and there was a chill in his eyes.
"Ah, Zhang Xiaolin!" Old Mo was immediately frightened and fell to the ground. The two staff members who came with him helped him up in a hurry, with fear on their faces.
Before he finished speaking, the door curtain had been raised, and a tough man with a bald head and a middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit rushed in with more than a dozen people. The originally small private room was suddenly filled to the brim.
"I knew you had brought in reinforcements. How about it? I'm here now. What can you do to me?" The bald man looked at the people in the room, put his hands on his hips, and his face was filled with anger.
Sneer.
Lao Mo didn't dare to show his anger, and hurriedly hid behind Lin Xiaotang and whispered: "Boss Lin, it's them!"
The bald man looked at Lin Xiaotang, his voice mixed with disdain, "Are you Lin Xiaotang?"
Lin Xiaotang nodded expressionlessly, "Are you from Zhang Xiaolin?"
The bald man's subordinates immediately shouted, "Can you call Boss Zhang by his first name?"
Huoyan leaned close to Lin Xiaotang's ear, "Bald is Zhang Xiaolin's favorite disciple, and he and Changshan Awu, who was killed by Fatty Brother, are brothers. They are known as monks in the world. The one in the Chinese tunic suit is Wan Lilang, the person in charge of No. 76 Hangzhou."
The monk waved his hand, and all the subordinates stopped shouting angrily. The monk pointed at Lin Xiaotang, "I don't care where you are from. Our New Asia Peace Promotion Association has always been responsible for the material mobilization in Hangzhou. With your people, from now on
Go back to where you came from. If I find out that you dare to interfere in the supply of supplies again, I will make sure that you cannot leave Hangzhou for the rest of your life!"
Lin Xiaotang sneered, "Monk, right? Please weigh yourself before speaking. Even if Zhang Xiaolin comes in person, would he dare to speak to me in this tone? Who the hell are you?"
The monk screamed angrily, "You are looking for death!" As he said that, he punched Lin Xiaotang in the face.
Just as Huoyan and Jiao Da were about to step forward to block them, Lin Xiaotang swayed first, avoiding the monk's fist. His right hand was like a knife, and he stabbed the monk's armpit like lightning, and then retreated.
The monk groaned, his right arm immediately became sore and numb, and he could no longer lift it up.
The monk was ashamed and annoyed, so he bumped into Lin Xiaotang again.
This time Lin Xiaotang didn't shy away and snorted coldly, "I don't know whether to live or die, so I'll teach you a lesson on Zhang Xiaolin's behalf!"
As he spoke, his fist sank down and hit the monk on the back of the head.
With a "bang", the monk was immediately thrown to the ground. He knelt on the ground in front of Lin Xiaotang. Lin Xiaotang kicked him back again.
The monk's subordinates exclaimed and hurriedly supported the flying monk, preventing him from falling to the floor again.
The monk's head felt like it was struck by lightning, his eyes were filled with stars. When he touched the back of his head with his left hand, a big swelling appeared.
The monk was so angry that he pulled out the pistol with his left hand and said, "You are looking for death!"
All the men also drew their guns and pointed them at Lin Xiaotang.
Huoyan, Qiang Yihu and others showed no sign of weakness and immediately faced each other with their guns in hand. The two gangs were at war with each other.
Wan Lilang smiled sinisterly, stretched out his hand to press down the monk's gun, and nodded to Lin Xiaotang, "Boss Lin, we all work for the government, and peace is the most important thing in everything. Today, our brothers are rude, and we can't turn around."
The water has turned, let’s talk about it another day!”
After saying that, he pouted at the monk, forced the unhappy monk, and led his subordinates out of the room.
…
Arriving outside the restaurant, the monk threw away Wan Lilang's hand bitterly, "Lao Wan, there are only a few of them, are we still afraid of them?"
Wan Lilang smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I'm confused, Lin Xiaotang can't be considered a prominent figure in Shanghai, and he also has a lot of connections with Nanjing. If he died here, you and I would have nothing to do with it. Anyway, he is still in Hangzhou,
Are you still afraid of losing your chance?"
The monk rolled his eyes a few times before he understood, and then pointed at Wanli Lang, "We have to agree, you know this matter and I know it. Boss Zhang and Director Li can't reveal any information. This Lin Xiaotang is
He is a thorn in my boss’s side. After I kill him, I will report it to him. I believe he will be happy to see the result!"
Wan Lilang clasped his hands behind his back, with an enigmatic smile on his face, and nodded.
After breaking up, the monk led his men through the streets full of tourists, intending to find a place to have a drink and relieve the suffocation in his chest, but he was unexpectedly bumped into by an oncoming person.
"Sorry!" The man didn't look back and went straight into the crowd again.
