"When the money is used up, the friendship cannot be eaten." So other people save money, I save friendships. Saving no more money is no more than gold mountains and silver seas, and friendship is as difficult to use as heaven and earth. ——Du Yuesheng
Risking his life to recover the stolen smoke and soil of the Huang Mansion, Du Yuesheng can be said to have made a great contribution. Lin Guisheng thought to himself: This person can be of great use, he must be cultivated well, and if he has great achievements in the future, the Huang Mansion can also follow the light.
The three major casinos in the French Concession were all under the name of Jin Rong, one of which was called Gongxingji, which was a favorite place for rich people to go, and the daily income was equivalent to an astronomical amount in that era. Du Yuesheng loves to gamble, but the places he used to often go to are simply small witches compared with Gongxingji.
Du Yuesheng
Gongxing remembers windfall and does not use it for his own friendship
In order to reward Du Yuesheng, Lin Guisheng asked him to go to Gongxing in his own name to eat a portion of Feng Lu.
It was a place that Du Yuesheng had never dared to think of before, and in order to maintain the pampered and unfazed persona, he tried to restrain the joy in his heart and thanked the boss lady.
But he was too happy too soon, and before he could step into the door of Gongxingji, he touched the nail. It was hard to get into the infield, and the head of the casino gave him another dismissal.
After experiencing contempt, insults, and ridicule, Du Yuesheng's emotions collapsed in an instant, and he felt as if he had been beaten back to his original form.
Fortunately, after Lin Guisheng knew about it, he personally took him to Gongxingji to find face. The person in charge of this casino is a bully who is afraid of hard, and when he saw Lin Guisheng, who was full of anger, he immediately stood up and smiled at him, and his attitude towards Du Yuesheng changed by one hundred and eighty degrees.
In order to calm the anger of the boss lady, the person in charge of the casino said that it was a misunderstanding before Lin Guisheng opened his mouth to pursue the responsibility, and then arranged a good job for Du Yuesheng in the casino, and he could receive 30 oceans a month.
Lin Guisheng was only slightly satisfied, and then reprimanded the people in the casino again, seeing that these people's apologetic attitude was very sincere, she was not good to continue to pursue, and everything should be left with three points of affection.
In order to resolve the deadlock on the field, Lin Guisheng proposed that he wanted to play on the gambling table, and the people in the casino were instantly relieved, responded positively, and the atmosphere became warm again.
Everyone is a human elf, knowing that this gamble cannot be won, even if the technology is high, they can only deliberately lose to the boss lady.
Lin Guisheng saw that winning was almost over, and it was not good to continue, so he ordered Du Yuesheng, who was standing on the side, to take over and leave first.
After Du Yuesheng stepped out of the gate of Gongxingji, carrying the huge amount of 2400 yuan that he had "won", the whole person had a feeling of being in the clouds, but he did not take this money for himself, but handed it over to Lin Guisheng as much as possible.
Lin Guisheng was very surprised, at Du Yuesheng's insistence, he only collected 400 yuan of it, and the rest of the money ordered Du Yuesheng to accept it and could not shirk it.
Suddenly, with a huge amount of 2,000 yuan, Du Yuesheng behaved very calmly, he did not choose to save this money, but used most of it in five places: first, to help friends solve the current predicament; second, to pay off all the previous arrears and gambling debts; third, to honor his master in the Qing gang; fourth, to return Huang Zhenyi, who introduced himself to the Huang Mansion; fifth, "do charity", and stuff money when he meets people with familiar faces in the sixteen shops.
This last point is indeed unbelievable, and it can only be said that Du Yuesheng is a person with very strange ideas. Most ordinary people will choose to save it for their own slow use in the future after having so much money, but Du Yuesheng does not care at all, and becomes a "boy who scatters wealth".
But after knowing his ideas, you will feel that it is no accident that he will have the achievements that follow. Poor people suffer from money all day, Du Yuesheng has a deep understanding of this, and now that he is living well, within his ability, why not make everyone happy. In his view, "saving friendships" is more meaningful than saving money.
Raise money for the party and design your own gambling house
Over time, Du Yuesheng's fame grew, and after hearing about his deeds, even the revolutionaries came to ask for help. At that time, a group of revolutionaries were in a critical moment of being wanted by the Qing court, and after fleeing to Shanghai, they wanted to take the water route to Japan, but they were penniless.
It was at this time that the revolutionaries heard about Du Yuesheng's previous generosity and came to seek help.
The revolutionary party is a frightening existence in the rivers and lakes, and the most taboo thing is to provoke them, but if you can climb up to a little friendship, many people can't ask for it.
Du Yuesheng did not hesitate, agreed, asked how much money was needed, and the other party opened his mouth to 800 yuan. If this had been earlier, he would have been able to afford this money, but these days he was a "boy who scattered wealth", which is far from enough now.
There was no way to make it up, and not long after, a brilliant idea appeared in Du Yuesheng's mind.
The next day, in the Gongxingji gambling house, a group of strange men appeared, all wearing long shirts and holding cigarette cans in their hands.
The crowd did not know, so they saw Du Yuesheng boldly come forward to inquire, and when he spoke with a frightened look, he told the people in the gambling house that these uninvited guests were revolutionary party members, and if they did not comply, they would light the bomb placed in the cigarette can and die with everyone.
As soon as this word came out, the casino people hurriedly asked Du Yuesheng how much money they wanted, Du Yuesheng said 800 yuan, everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was only 800 yuan, engaging in such a big battle, and then let Du Yuesheng quickly take the money to the other party.
The revolutionaries had misgivings in their hearts before, not knowing whether Du Yuesheng's plan would succeed or not, but fortunately the money was successfully obtained in his hands, and it was indeed inappropriate to act in this way, but there was no other way to do extraordinary things in an extraordinary period.
After thanking them, the revolutionary party and his party, fearing another incident, hurried to the docks and boarded a ship for Japan.
Shi Miaoji eliminated Xu Baoshan and helped the party to fire the first shot
In 1913, the Revolutionary Party, funded by the Mitsui clique in Japan, decided to plot to overthrow the Beiyang government. First of all, the first trouble to be solved is Xu Baoshan, one of Yuan Shikai's fierce generals. This man led his army to garrison Zhenjiang and Yangzhou, and if the revolutionaries wanted to successfully enter Beijing from Shanghai, they must first eliminate him.
Xu Baoshan
The person who carried out this order was named Wang Bailing, and at first, he did not want to inform Du Yuesheng of this secret mission. Helplessly, Xu Baoshan's person is really difficult to deal with, known as the "sharpshooter", the martial arts are extraordinary, and it is difficult for ordinary killers to get close, let alone kill him.
Wang Bailing
Wang Bailing and his party worked hard, but they could not find a suitable killer candidate. Thinking that one more person would have more strength, Wang Bailing still informed Du Yuesheng of the assassination of Xu Baoshan.
Du Yuesheng was very happy to do things for the revolutionaries, and he wondered why he didn't use bombs since he couldn't get close to Xu Baoshan's body.
Find a way to send the bomb to Xu Baoshan's side unconsciously, reduce his defensiveness, if he is accidentally caught, he can successfully remove this person, even if he is not successful, there will be a chance in the future.
Wang Bailing agreed after hearing this, and immediately took action with the people around him. What can make Xu Baoshan lower his guard must be the people and things he is familiar with. After investigation, they found that Xu Baoshan had a regular deal with an antique dealer, which was a perfect opportunity.
On May 23, 1913, someone outside the Xu Mansion sent an iron box and a letter saying that the box contained a vase, and that the key and quotation were in the envelope.
The guards of the Xu Mansion carefully examined the envelope and found that it was sent by an antique dealer who often had contacts with his own grandfather, and there was no problem, so he accepted it and sent it to Xu Baoshan.
Xu Baoshan did not open it immediately, and the next day when he was getting a haircut at home, he was idle, remembering the vase sent yesterday, and planned to open it to appreciate it.
He took the key out of the envelope, inserted it into the keyhole in the iron box, and twisted it to the right, just then there was a faint black smoke coming out of the iron box, and he knew at once that he had been calculated, and that the box contained not a vase, but a bomb that the revolutionaries wanted to kill him.
Xu Baoshan quickly threw the iron box away from his side, but it was too late, and the explosion suddenly sounded, and Yuan Shikai lost a capable general.
After this incident, the fight between the Beiyang government and the revolutionary party became more intense. But all this has nothing to do with Du Yuesheng, he is just a commoner, in addition to "saving friendships", he also has to be busy with his career.
