When it comes to Jin Rong, everyone is no stranger, and they all know that he is the biggest leader of the old Shanghai Youth Gang. In fact, according to some people's research, Jin Rong is not the "Green Gang Tycoon" in old Shanghai. The Qing Gang was the largest underworld organization in old Shanghai, and Jin Jinrong had never opened an incense hall or posted to worship a teacher, so there was no gang member.
In 1900, the then 32-year-old Jin Jinrong married Lin Guisheng in Suzhou, and Lin Guisheng was also Jin Rong's wife.
Lin Guisheng is a native of Suzhou and came to Shanghai in his early years. At the beginning, she opened a "fireworks room" in Yizhichun Street (now Pinghu Road) at the mouth of the Lujiazhai Bridge in Xiaodongmen, Nanshi, known as "Gui Shengjie". To make a living, of course, you need to get the attention of the police. In 1892, Jin Rong was the "bag inquiry" of the French Concession patrol house. As a result, he often patronized "Gui Shengjie", and when he came and went, Huang became a patron that "Gui Shengjie" could rely on.
During this period, Lin Guisheng relied on the three religions and nine streams he had known, plus his own shrewdness and ability, and he established the largest underworld gang in Shanghai Beach at that time, the Green Gang, and Lin Guisheng also became the eldest sister of Shanghai Beach.
To be precise, Jin Rong is the door-to-door son-in-law of the Lin family. Due to the fact that Lin Guisheng has such a wife who has "can be done", Jin Rong's forces have risen rapidly, and he calls himself the leader of the "Tianzi Generation" Green Gang. At that time, the highest generation of the Shanghai Beach Green Gang was the "big" generation.
In fact, it is more accurate to call Jin Rong a "veteran tycoon".
In 1921, there was a theater on Aidoya Road next door to the "Great World Playground" in Shanghai, called "Common Stage". There is a famous Peking opera artist in the theater class named Lu Lanchun. Lu Lanchun was originally the adopted daughter of Zhang Shi, a protégé of Golden Rong, and Lu Lanchun knew her when she was 13 or 4 years old.
Later, Lu Lanchun began to study opera, and soon became famous for performing improved Peking Opera, which aroused the interest of Jin Rong.
On that day, Jin Rong came to see Lu Lanchun's "Hongbi Edge" with great interest, and felt that Lu's singing skills were quite good.
In order to make Lu Lanchun more famous, Jin Jinrong personally went to the theater for two consecutive months to hold the scene for her, and then threw out a large stack of silver oceans, asking the newspapers to work hard to hold Lu Lanchun locally. For a time, newspapers of all sizes in Shanghai published large jade photos of Lu Lanchun, and Lu Lanchun's reputation rose.
Lu Xiaojia, the eldest son of the Zhejiang overseer and warlord Lu Yongxiang and one of the famous four sons of Shanghai Beach, loved to listen to dramas the most, and when he saw a large introduction to Lu Lanchun in the newspaper, he made a special trip to the gong stage to watch the play. Before the play began, Lu Xiaojia asked his classmates to send a diamond ring to Lu Lanchun, and agreed to leave the play for a while, but lu Lanchun politely refused. Lu Xiaojia was very unhappy.
Coincidentally, on this day, Lu Lanchun did not pay attention and sang a piece of drama away from the board. Lu Xiaojia, who was in the private room under the stage, immediately cheered the pouring lottery, which made Jin Rong, who was watching the play in another box, very angry.
In order to protect Lu Lanchun, Jin Rong arranged rogue thugs on the common stage, standing in four seats, as long as Jin Rong applauded, they desperately applauded. On this turf, which Rong Lu Xiaojia cheered! Therefore, Jin Rong instructed his men to break into Lu Xiaojia's box and gave Lu Xiaojia two heavy mouths.
Lu Xiaojia saw that there were many thugs, and he only had two bodyguards, so he had to pretend and go away in sorrow.
The next day, Lu Xiaojia found his father's old subordinate, the Shanghai Songhu Protector, and he Fenglin gave him a blow. After discussing, the two decided to kidnap Jin Rong.
One night a few days later, Jin Rong ate dinner and brought four personal bodyguards into his special box on the common stage. Shortly after the performance began, when Lu Lanchun slowly stepped on the stage, a dozen plainclothes quietly slipped into the golden Rong box, covered its mouth, and dragged it away.
Subsequently, Jin Rong was kidnapped and taken to a basement of the LongHua He Mansion. Lu Xiaojia first wanted to kill Jin Rong, but then he felt that it was better to knock him a huge sum of money, if he really tore up the ticket, I am afraid it would not end well. Moreover, Jin Rong's wife "Gui Shengjie" is also not easy to mess with.
Lu Gongzi let Him keep Jin Rong locked up and isolated him from the outside world.
During this period, Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin used various relationships to find out the ins and outs of the matter, opened up the internal relations of the Lu Government, and spent three million dollars to redeem the gold Rong.
After Jin Rong escaped from death, he was even more fascinated by Lu Lanchun. In order to give Lu Lanchun a name, Huang proposed to his wife Lin Guisheng to adopt Lu Lanchun as a second room. The strong Lin Guisheng flatly refused.
At this time, Golden Rong has become a climate, where must it allow "Gui Shengjie" to be so tough. As a result, the two did not give in to each other, and finally fell out and divorced.
In 1922, at the age of 54, Jin Rong married 24-year-old Lu Lanchun. However, the good times did not last long, because Lu Lanchun could not have children, less than three years after marriage, Lu Lanchun divorced Jin Rong.
Subsequently, Lu Lanchun married several times, and finally married Xue Heng, the second son of Xue Baorun, one of the "Four Great Paint Kings" of Shanghai and the 30-year-old Xue Heng. After marriage, the two were in love and inseparable. After Jin Rong found out, he was jealous and instructed his men to kidnap Xue Heng and extort 40,000 oceans before releasing people back. After this fright, Xue Ergongzi and Lu Lanchun died of illness one after another.
Later, Lu Xiaojia was also afraid that the increasingly mixed Gold Rong would find trouble for him, so in 1946, he moved to Taiwan, where he had been engaged in import and export business, and died in the late 1960s.
Jin Rong's wife, Lin Guisheng, died in Shanghai in 1981.
