Chapter 51 Important Plan

Cheng Shi ran to the toilet and looked around. He was secretly stunned. There were clear posts and hidden sentries all around. It seemed that it was impossible to investigate secretly!
While Cheng Shi was squatting in the toilet, he thought to himself: Who would think of building a nunnery here and engage in this business?
Cheng Shi had also understood that after the nun listened to the identity and wishes of the pilgrims, he classified those who had identity and those who did not understand the code words!
Let them all come out from the door on the left, and then ask someone to tell their fortunes, and they will be allowed to leave.
As for the people leaving from the door on the right, they were all unidentified and pretty women, as well as some men who knew code words!
Those men who speak code words are naturally here to enjoy themselves, as for those women who have no identity, are young and beautiful!
I'm afraid we're about to start brainwashing them. In the end, either the brainwashed ones will succeed and join them directly, while the others will either be sent away or forced to join!
Cheng Shi thought about how he could save these women. If they could make such a big deal here, their status would not be small!
Cheng Shi quickly thought of a person, Zhang Xiaolin, because his business customers are all high-end customers, and high-end customers are more likely to have this special habit!
So it's very likely that he started this deal, but he shouldn't be the one behind the scenes. If Zhang Xiaolin wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't use such a confusing killing method!
The most likely possibility is that the other party borrowed Zhang Xiaolin’s place and people to collect the secrets of the bosses!
Just as Cheng Shi was thinking, he heard someone shouting outside: "Are you not feeling better yet?!"
Cheng Shi quickly replied: "I was so hungry yesterday that I will go out soon!"
After Cheng Shi went out, he looked relaxed and happy. He glanced at the nun waiting for him outside!
Cheng Shi smiled and said: "It's really troublesome for you to stand guard for me!"
The nun stared at him and said, "I'm afraid that you will get lost again after you come out and disturb the pilgrims who are studying Buddhism. It will be bad for you and them!"
Cheng Shi smiled and pretended not to have discovered their secret at all!
Then the nun led Cheng Shi to a place where people were asking for fortune-telling fortunes. It said that the price of sesame oil was an ocean, and the fortune-telling fortune was there!
Cheng Shi first paid to receive a lucky draw, then took a few steps and passed by Hu Hui, who was waiting for him!
Cheng Shi didn't wait for the other party to speak, and whispered first: "Don't ask, please leave here quickly, I will go out soon!"
Although Hu Hui looked confused, she still walked out of the temple obediently, while Cheng Shi walked up to an old nun.
Cheng Shi smiled and said, "I hope Master can explain my fortune and see what my future is like!"
The old nun looked at the lot and said, "Please tell me your birth date!"
Cheng Shi made a random joke. Now he could only finish unwrapping the signatures before leaving. He couldn't leave with Hu Hui!
Just now, Hu Hui attracted attention and said she had a stomachache, and he also had a stomachache. If they leave together again, any fool will know that there is something wrong with them!
The old nun closed her eyes and did some calculations, and then said: "Very good, donor, this is your sign. As long as you do things openly and let nature take its course, there will be a good result in the end."
Cheng Shi naturally thanked him with his mouth, but sighed in his heart, I am on the right path, I am afraid what you are doing is not the right path!
Cheng Shi took the sign and strode out of Cihang Temple with a smile on his face. After going out, he walked for a while and followed Hu Hui.
When Hu Hui saw Cheng following him, she said with some confusion: "What's wrong? Why do you want me to leave quickly?"
Cheng Shi thought for a while, but did not tell the truth. Hu Hui was a devout Buddhist, and if she knew that this kind of place was used for business, she was afraid something might happen!
Cheng Shi said: "I have some clues about the case I'm investigating. I need to go back and report it quickly. I can't accompany you anymore, so I want you to go back early!"
Hu Hui sighed and said, "Oh, why are you becoming more and more like your dad? You spend all day investigating cases. Don't be too tired!"
Cheng Shi waved his hand to hail a rickshaw and said with a smile: "I understand, you'd better go back first!"
Cheng Shi watched Hu Hui leave and also hailed a rickshaw. Cheng Shi decided to report this matter to Huang Jinrong!
Because he already had a plan in mind, but he definitely couldn't do it, so he could only place his hope on Huang Huangrong!
…………
Central arrest room, chief detective's office!
Huang Huangrong leaned back on the chair, lit a cigarette, looked at Cheng Shi and said: "You guessed right, that Cihang Temple was indeed opened by Zhang Xiaolin!
Are you sure that the secret organization is really related to Cihang Temple and the Little Garden Hotel?!"
Cheng Shi sighed and said: "Yes, these are only two known places, there may be their people in other places too!"
Huang Jinrong thought for a while and said: "According to what you just said, this secret organization is a parasite in Zhang Xiaolin's business!
But in order to get rid of this parasite, it is impossible for Zhang Xiaolin to close hotels and temples. That is a very profitable business!
Although he is from my Huang Mansion, it is impossible for him to agree to shut down those profitable businesses!"
Cheng Shi said: "I know it's impossible, so I just asked him to shut up temporarily for a few days, telling the outside world to take a break, and telling the inside to check the accounts!
If the business of hotels and temples goes on as usual, we have no idea that those people are parasites!
By the time they close, I'm sure the parasites will start moving on their own!
I believe Zhang Xiaolin knows that there are parasites in his business and will find a way to pick them out!
Of course, this matter needs to be kept secret so that not too many people know about it, otherwise they may pretend to be dead and stop their activities when they learn the news!"
Huang Jinrong nodded and said: "This is a good idea. It's not a big problem to close the door for a few days. However, I don't like Zhang Xiaolin very much!
It's nothing serious and I don't want to go see him. Well, let's go to the Huang Mansion to find Du Yuesheng, and I'll ask Du Yuesheng to take you to him!
Ask Du Yuesheng to find him, and this matter will be successful. The two of them have a good relationship, they hung out together, and they have saved each other's lives!"
After hearing this, Cheng Shi was a little surprised. Could it be that his plan would allow him to meet the other two tycoons in Shanghai soon?
Cheng Shi nodded quickly and said, "Okay, Chief Inspector, the fewer people who know, the more chance we have of uprooting them!"
Huang Jinrong then called Du Yuesheng directly and asked him to wait for Cheng Shi at the Huang Mansion if he had something to do!
In 1920, it was still the era of Huang Huangrong. 32-year-old Du Yuesheng and 43-year-old Zhang Xiaolin are now just two more capable people under Huang Huangrong's family!
At first, Du Yuesheng was a fruit vendor in Shiliupu, that is, a small gangster. Under the introduction of his senior Chen Shichang, he joined Huang Jinrong's family.
Through a series of events, Du Yuesheng gradually gained the trust of Huang Huangrong, and his status continued to rise. Around 1920, he became Huang's important assistant and independent general.
Zhang Xiaolin is from Hangzhou. He attended military school in his early years and had close ties with the local forces that later controlled Zhejiang and Shanghai.
Zhang Xiaolin came to Shanghai under the introduction of his senior Ji Yunqing. He first confronted Huang for a while and found that he was no match for Huang!
In the end, they gave in and became Huang's disciples. The main business of Huang Huangrong and Du Yuesheng in the 1920s was the black and white business!
In 1925, Huang Huangrong offended Lu Yongxiang's son Lu Xiaojia because of the actor Lu Lanchun!
He was detained by Lu Yongxiang's subordinate He Fenglin in Shanghai at the time. It was Du Yuesheng who managed to rescue him. Huang Huangrong's prestige plummeted, and the two changed positions after that!
However, their subsequent performances were different. Du Yuesheng worked hard to clean himself up and infiltrated into the business and political circles.
Zhang Xiaolin continued to do his three-color business, while Huang Huangrong had no intention of making progress after 1925, and lived by clinging to his master world and other industries.
