In Jin Yong's martial arts novels, we often see jianghu gangs, gang members holding together as a gang, colluding with each other, advancing and retreating together, and both are at a loss and a loss, in the final analysis, they are gathered together because of common interests. If the "Cai Gang" is the largest gang in the world, then the "Qing Gang" is the first big gang in Shanghai during the Republic of China period, and the "big leader" of the Qing Gang, Du Yuesheng, is a legendary figure in China's modern history.
Du Yuesheng was born in 1888, and when he was four years old, his parents died one after another, and penniless, he could not even bury his parents, but simply rolled the body into a straw mat and displayed it on the ridge behind the ancestral house. After that, Du Yuesheng was raised by his stepmother and uncle Shang Qingguo, and he began to live under the fence. However, Du Yuesheng was not his own flesh and blood after all, and after being treated unequally, he came to Shanghai in a huff.
After all, du Yuesheng came to Shanghai and found that he had no strengths, not only bumping into walls everywhere, but also no one was even looking at him. Over the past few years, Du Yuesheng has been groping and fighting in society, not only suffering but also honing his heart, from a foreign stunned youth to a small street gangster. Du Yuesheng is good at observing words and colors, he does not miss any opportunity to make himself soar, as long as he can get a foothold in Shanghai, he is willing to pay everything.
When Du Yuesheng was 14 years old, he joined the Qing gang, worshiped Chen Shichang as an old man, and with the help of the old man's relationship, he was able to successfully enter the mansion of the leader of the Green Gang, Jin Rong. Because of his flexible mind and extremely efficient work, he was treated differently by Jin Rong. By chance, Du Yuesheng sensed that the time had come, so he worshiped Jin Rong as a teacher in front of everyone, and Jin Rong was very happy, and even accepted Du Yuesheng as an apprentice and "paid special attention" to him.
Within a few years, Du Yuesheng climbed to the top of the Qinggang and sat on an equal footing with his master Jin Rong, and he also fulfilled his vow of "basing himself in Shanghai". As the "dragon head" of the Qing Gang, Du Yuesheng's hands will naturally gather some younger brothers, and they all compete to show themselves, hoping to get Du Yuesheng's "favor". Among them was a small named Xu Yefu, who was not only clever and clever, but also very clingy, and had always wanted to worship Du Yuesheng as a teacher, claiming to follow Du Yuesheng to do something big.
When Du Yuesheng saw him, he remembered himself at that time, so he agreed to him. From that day on, Xu Yefu, with du Yuesheng's support, was unscrupulous in his work, and his ambitions were extremely inflated, and he even asked Du Yuesheng to arrange a position for him as the chief of the Shanghai Municipal Police. Du Yuesheng was shocked, to know that even he had to weigh and weigh that position, in order to appease Xu Yefu, Du Yuesheng arranged him into the Social Security Bureau, presumably to meet his ability.
Later, when war broke out, Shanghai was crumbling, and Du Yuesheng's Green Gang gradually disintegrated, and his younger brothers fled in all directions, some becoming traitors and some becoming anti-Japanese fighters. Du Yuesheng did not help each other, and fled with all his wealth, and before leaving, he had repeatedly told Xu Yefu not to come back. Who knew that Xu Yefu did not pay any attention to it, and returned to Shanghai after a year in his hometown of Chongqing. As Du Yuesheng said, Xu Yefu was forced by the Japanese to ask about Du Yuesheng's whereabouts, but he was still sentient and righteous, and he never confessed, and finally was brutally killed.
