Shanghai Beach is a city on the cusp of the storm no matter what era, even in the Republic of China period of warlord chaos, it is still singing and dancing, and its development is thriving.
Shanghai tycoon
Among them is the Qinggang, the largest triad organization that has ruled Shanghai for several years, and although there is a new government in Shanghai in name, in private, this new government may not have as much power as the Qinggang.
There are three leaders of the Green Gang, Jin Jinrong, Du Yuesheng, and Zhang Xiaolin. There are also many modern movies and TV series that have appeared based on the image of three people.
Among them, Du Yuesheng is the most famous. After the liberation of the whole country in 1949, Du Yuesheng fled to Hong Kong, and the evening scene was desolate. In the end, the body was forcibly transported to Taiwan by Chiang Kai-shek and buried on a mountain in Taiwan.
However, Zhang Xiaolin became a traitor to the Japanese puppet government because he betrayed the country, and was successfully assassinated by the undercover agents installed by the Kuomintang military commander in Zhang Mansion, and he did not end up enjoying a good end in his old age.
The last Jin Rong, because he was the oldest, was still reluctant to leave his Shanghai Huang Mansion when Du Yuesheng fled to Taiwan, and he was reluctant to leave the place where he had lived all his life, so he refused to leave and chose to stay in Shanghai.
But because Jin Rong has always supported Chiang Kai-shek and helped Chiang Kai-shek massacre a large number of revolutionaries and revolutionary masses. In particular, in April 1927, through the organization of the Chinese Communist Progressive Association, countless revolutionary masses and people with lofty ideals were killed.
However, unlike Zhang Xiaolin, after facing the Japanese invading army occupying Shanghai, he was invited to take the position of president of the Shanghai Maintenance Association. According to Jin Rong, who did not want to be a traitor, he refused to be ill, and basically did not take a step from the Huang Mansion during the Japanese puppet army's rule of Shanghai.
Finally, after the founding of New China, he also confessed to the crimes he committed during the War of Resistance Against Japan, and died of illness at the Huanggongguan in Shanghai on June 20, 1953.
At this point, the three tycoons of Shanghai Beach have become history, and those things that happened in those years are occasionally talked about by the older generation in Shanghai.
Surprise the storm
Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin were able to gain a foothold on Shanghai Beach and became the same Shanghai tycoons as Jin Jinrong, also because Jin Jinrong was hand-picked.
Jin Rong was born in a poor family, and originally ran to Shanghai at a young age to eat mixed food. After all, poor families in that era generally did not train their children to study, and it was fortunate that they could not starve to death.
At the age of twelve or thirteen, they usually come out early to do apprenticeships and work everywhere. Unlike Du Yuesheng, who was a teenager and worked as an apprentice to sell fruits in a fruit shop, Jin Rong's starting point was slightly higher.
He worked as an apprentice in the painting shop of CuiHuatang in the Shanghai City God Temple, after all, the local cultural atmosphere of this framed painting is strong. However, In his bones, Jin Rong still likes to fight in the rivers and lakes, and also likes to interact with the hooligans, and he has a headache when he looks at the words and paintings, and does not like these words to walk meticulously.
Therefore, after working in the framed painting shop for a long time, I found another way out. Through a little network in Shanghai Beach, he became a patrol in the French Concession Patrol House.
At that time, Shanghai was divided by the concessions of various countries, and becoming a patrol in the concession meant that there was no worry about eating and drinking, and personal safety was also guaranteed. Occasionally, he can also use his concession patrol identity to bully and bully ordinary low-level people.
Such a good way out can be said that many people have grabbed the head, and Jin Rong's luck is really good.
Later, it turned out to be worthy of the path chosen by Jin Rong himself, and this profession was very suitable for him. Soon, because of his clever mind and excellent work ability, as well as superb emotional intelligence, he met the source and hooked up with each other.
This undertaking has been unimpeded all the way, and the official fortunes have been prosperous. From the patrol room bao detective all the way up, did the eye, inspector, until the only Chinese inspector general of the police department, can be described as unlimited scenery.
However, the ambitious Golden Rong's vision does not stop there, the Chinese Inspector General is a high authority in the eyes of ordinary people, but Golden Rong is bent on obtaining more money and wealth and expanding his power.
The reason why Jin Rong and Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin became brothers was due to a kidnapping incident. Although Jin Rong has a wife Lin Guisheng, his wife is also a powerful figure. But he still liked to pick flowers and weeds outside, not to mention that at that time, the Qing Dynasty stipulated that you could have three wives and four concubines.
Jin Rong's mistake is that he should not provoke the characters he can't afford to provoke, he has always been rampant in Shanghai, but there are also characters on this beach that he can't afford to provoke.
Kidnapping storm
For example, for a popular actor Lu Lanchun, Jin Rong and a young man competed for the wind and jealousy, and publicly humiliated the man. But who would have imagined that a young man whose appearance was not proud was Lu Xiaojia, the son of Lu Yongxiang, the overseer of Zhejiang.
The water washed away the Dragon King Temple, and it was not so much that Jin Rong was kidnapped, but rather that the people of the army were right and bright to capture Jin Rong and put him in the Detention Center of the Longhua Lake Military Bureau. The detention center itself is subordinate to the army and is heavily guarded. Even if the Green Gang had tens of thousands of disciples, they did not dare to fight against the army.
At this time, Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin, who had joined the Qing Gang, began to run around, looking for a relationship in the hope that They could save Jin Jinrong from prison.
In the end, under the coordination of many parties, and by the Most Senior Old Man of the Green Gang, Zhang Jinghu, came forward to dredge up, and compensated the large amount of gold obtained from major merchants, as well as Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin personally apologized, and finally calmed Lu Xiaojia's anger.
After Jin Rong was released, he also walked at the threshold of life and death. This time, thanks to Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin's multi-pronged running, otherwise they would not have come out of prison.
Therefore, because of this kidnapping case and Du Yuesheng, Zhang Xiaolin formed a brother of life and death. The situation in Shanghai Beach has also changed from being the sole power of the Golden Rong family to one of the three tycoons of Shanghai Beach.
And Jin Rong is also a little back, being kidnapped once is not counted, and then kidnapped again. And every time they are kidnapped, the robbers demand gold.
The robber who kidnapped Jin Rong this time asked for fifty gold bars. No matter in what era, fifty gold bars is not a small number, let alone in the Republic of China. However, for Jin Rong, the number one person in Shanghai Beach, taking out fifty gold bars is not a big deal.
However, his daughter-in-law Li Zhiqing still withheld a gold bar when negotiating with the kidnappers. Offered to mortgage the remaining gold bars with some priceless jewelry. Such a good deal, the kidnappers naturally agreed.
Jin Rong was released again, and when he returned home, he was furious when he heard about this, a gold bar was just a gold bar, was it more important than his own life?
Li Zhiqing said the reason, because he could not investigate the person behind the kidnapping of Jin Rong, so he made this decision. These jewelry are from the hands of the master, some of which are the only ones in this world, if they circulate in the market, they will soon be able to find the seller.
As Li Zhiqing said, the kidnappers were eager to take off the jewelry. And I don't know so much, I only know that I can sell for a lot of money, and in the process of selling, I am quickly caught.
The kidnappers also confessed that they were the masters behind the scenes, and it was the acquaintances who had a festival with Jin Rong. Li Zhiqing's trick can not be said to be not smart, Skynet is restored without leakage, and if the things he does not want to be known, unless he does not do it, sooner or later he will reveal the stuffing.
