When it comes to modern underworld figures, many people will think of the northeast "Qiao Fourth Master". His name is indeed very loud, not only in the three eastern provinces, but even the people of the whole country have more or less heard of the name of Fourth Master Qiao.
Indeed, he is the typical underworld boss in the modern peaceful society, who has been traversing the northeast for many years, accumulating huge wealth, and a large number of idle people in society have gathered under him. Fourth Master Qiao can be described as a typical representative of starting by fighting, killing and killing, and to this day, there are still many legends about Qiao Fourth in the folk, and some even spread to the gods, which is unbelievable.

At a certain time, when mentioning Fourth Master Qiao, many people even think of "Emperor Tu". What kind of past life did Fourth Master Qiao, who was so "famous", have?
Qiao Si or Qiao Si Ye is just a nickname, his real name is Song Yongjia, in the late 1940s, he was born in Harbin, Heilongjiang, to an ordinary peasant family. Later, because he often moved in an area called "The Bridge", and among the brothers in the family, he was the fourth oldest, so many people used to call him Qiao Si. Later, after he became famous on the road, many did not dare to call him Qiao Si directly, and they all respected him as Qiao Siye.
Before he became the boss of the underworld, Qiao Si's life was actually very hard. Imagine that in 1948, when he was born, New China had not yet been liberated, and the lives of the people had experienced years of war and were very difficult. And Qiao Si, who has no family background, is also living the life of the lowest people. In his youth, in order to support his family, Qiao Si learned the craft of a mason with someone. And it is said that Qiao Si's craft is quite good.
Times often give people the greatest opportunities, but different people will take very different paths in the same era. In the winter of 1978, the state officially established reform and opening up, when Qiao Si was exactly thirty years old. It was a man's best age, and Qiao Si's masonry skills had also reached maturity at that time. Originally, with the good masonry skills and the spring breeze of reform, Qiao Si could also live a good life.
But Qiao Si didn't think so, he might have the dream of making a lot of money and doing big things, but what supported Qiao Si's dream was a crooked and evil way. In the 1980s at the beginning of reform and opening up, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, ushered in large-scale demolition and transformation. Qiao Si, who was born as a mason, saw this opportunity and felt that demolition could make a lot of money.
But as we all know, demolition and relocation is also a relatively difficult job, not only to have a certain strength, but also to balance all kinds of people, especially some unreasonable "nail households". But Qiao Si seemed to have eaten something in his heart, and had already decided to demolish and transform this piece of fat meat. So in the midst of everyone's astonishment, the mason Qiao Si transformed into the head of the demolition team, or the boss of the demolition company. And this also laid the groundwork for him to embark on the road of crime.
Qiao Si knows that demolition is more profitable, but he also knows that it is more difficult. Just entered this line, Qiao Si encountered a lot of demolition problems, he for those brutal demolished households, there is no way, lip service cost a lot, but the effect is very small.
In this situation, Qiao Si thought of a way to co-opt those who have been released from prison and the scoundrels in society. He put these people into his demolition team. Then, Qiao Si began to conspire with the developers to reduce the demolition price to the tenants as much as possible, so as to obtain huge profits from it. At that time, several developers also questioned Qiao Si's ability to demolish. But Qiao Si soon proved his strength with profiteering behavior.
His personnel who have been released after completing their sentences, as well as the scoundrels, at the instigation of Qiao Si, have applied various despicable and brutal means to solve the demolition problems in the mouth of the developers again and again. And Qiao Si's prestige has also accumulated in violent demolition and relocation. He used criminal acts to play his own sign. So more and more bad developers found Qiao Si to cooperate in demolition. During this period, Qiao Si not only won "prestige" in the industry, but also accumulated huge amounts of money.
With the first pot of gold, Qiao Si began to expand his business scope. He was not only involved in demolition, real estate development, infrastructure projects, opening casinos, lending usury, and even buying and selling. Anyway, as long as there is a deal that can make money through violent means, Qiao Si will intervene.
In this situation, Qiao Si's underworld group, like a snowball, is getting bigger and bigger, not only absorbing more and more idle people in society. And assets also increase in geometric multiples. Throughout the 1980s, when the prestige of Qiao Si was mentioned in Harbin, almost everyone knew it, and no one knew it. It is undeniable that Qiao Si is not the kind of person who only knows how to use violent means. Qiao Si can become the boss of the underworld and also has a super high IQ. While he was using violence to accumulate wealth, his other eye was fixed on the corrupt government officials.
Part of the wealth that Qiao Si gained through violence was used for captive thugs and the operation of the company. In addition to his own profligacy, he also actively operated to bribe officials. Qiao Si knows that if his illegal business wants to go long, he must find a reliable umbrella. And government officials who hold power in their hands, as well as personnel of the political and legal system, are the best people for him to weave an umbrella.
At that time, Qiao Si spent a lot of money on powerful officials, policemen, and others, and bought them off. Under his money offensive, many officials have become Qiao Si's protective umbrella. As a result, Qiao Si became more arrogant, treating ordinary people or people who had conflicts with his business, either beating or scolding. In more than ten years, there have been dozens of serious injury cases caused by the Qiao Four gangs, as many as a few hundred cases of minor injuries or cases that the victims dare not report. Qiao Si's gang of evil forces, which has become more and more inflated, is also the beginning of its demise.
Reform and opening up has ushered in a vigorous vitality for the country, but in the dark corners of society, reform and opening up have also made many illegal and criminal acts rampant. Therefore, in the 1980s, in order to rectify social chaos and effectively crack down on criminal acts, the state carried out several strikes. And the demise of Qiao Si also occurred during the strike hard.
At that time, the prestige of the fourth master of Qiao in the northeast spread throughout the three eastern provinces, and the ordinary people and regular merchants persecuted by qiao si were also numerous. Fourth Master Qiao even deliberately did not abide by traffic laws, and Chao was inspecting the car of a high-ranking official in the northeast. Therefore, many people began to expose the illegal acts of the Qiao Si underworld criminal group to the relevant departments. This has greatly attracted the attention of the central authorities. Subsequently, during the strike hard, the Ministry of Public Security mobilized a large number of police forces from other provinces to attack the Qiao Si underworld group.
Thanks to the efforts of the government and all sectors of society, in 1991, the Qiao Si Underworld Group was brought to justice. In the thick indictment, 14 key members of the QiaoSi underworld criminal group were sentenced to death, and more than eighty people were sentenced to several months to life imprisonment, and dozens of them were still at large. From the number of personnel, we can see the harm of the Qiao Four Underworld Group.
On June 9 of that year, Qiao Si and fourteen other key members were executed by firing squad, and in that year, Qiao Si was only 43 years old. Qiao Siye, a representative figure of the underworld in Northeast China for more than ten years, has become history.
