Chapter two hundred and ninety-fifth, Kabukicho's eyeliner(1/2)

The Chinese are hard-working, brave, and smart. As long as there is a gap, they can still survive well in unfamiliar soil.

Xu Tianmu was one of the first batch of trainees dispatched by Ikeda. After paying Ikeda’s 1.8 million yen fee in the first year, he spent some more money to buy back the trainee’s contract and became

He became a free agent living in Japan.

Xu Tianmu is worthy of being a nine-headed bird in the sky. He is very shrewd and hard-working.

The job he was assigned was as an underground sewer cleaner belonging to the Tokyo Municipal Government. His daily job was to clear out sludge in the sewers. This job was not too tiring, but very dirty. He worked ten hours a day and had six days off every month.

.

Unlike other trainees who go to factories and find ways to work overtime on holidays to earn more overtime pay, Xu Tianmu takes a break during holidays, but it's not really a rest. He spends this time at a language school.

Within half a year, he spoke Japanese fluently, and within a year, he mastered English proficiently. Then he bought back the trainee's contract and became a prosecutor in Kabukicho Ichiban Street.

In layman's terms, the person in the case is a tour guide, but when placed in a specific environment, its meaning will change. For example, the person in the case in Kabukicho can actually be directly understood as a pimp, but it is not as explicit as a pimp.

.

Who makes all kinds of businesses in Kabukicho comply with Japanese laws?

Since he is taking people to a legal place for consumption, the derogatory connotation of pimping cannot be attached to the person involved in the case. It is more appropriate to use a word in Beijing dialect to describe the person involved in the case, that is, "patchwork".

Nowadays, Japan's economy is developing, and various clubs have a huge "entertainment fee". Kabukicho Street can generate around a few hundred million yen every day, and on a good day it can exceed 1 billion.

Not to mention the owners of various stores here, even those mamasang characters have an annual income of over 100 million yen. In the more upscale places in Ginza, there are people with annual public relations income of more than 1 billion yen.

When business is easy to do, there will naturally be more people who want to squeeze in and get a share of the pie.

Shops here in Kabukicho are so densely packed that there are no vacancies at all. There are so many shops that it is impossible for each shop to provide different services. Naturally, it will fall into homogeneous competition and involution.

At this time, the role of the people involved in the case came to the fore. They were standing at the intersection of Yifan Street. Many people were itchy and embarrassed to go in. They kept wandering at the intersection. They needed to persuade them to go in and persuade them to be with them.

Stores that have signed a rebate agreement will bring business to the store and earn a generous rebate for themselves.

If you meet a customer who is nice to talk to, you can also get a sum of money from the customer, and the rebate is not low, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of yen. If you can get a dozen or so business in one night, your monthly income will be good.

of over one million yen.

It was just after seven o'clock in the evening, and the shops in Kabukicho Street had not yet opened for customers. There were only a few or two scattered tourists on Ichiban Street, most of them tourists who came purely to satisfy their curiosity.

Under the lamppost outside the Koma Theater in the 1-chome center, Xu Tianmu was leaning alone on the street railing, smoking and feeling worried in his heart.

After working as a trainee for five or six months, Xu Tianmu discovered that there was a very high-paying job in Kabukicho Street, a place of bizarre fireworks. So, after he learned about the situation, he went back to continue working as a dredger.

At the same time, I signed up for more English courses.

A year after arriving in Tokyo, he became the first Chinese suspect in Kabukicho Street.

In just a few months, he has grown from a young kid with no background, who could only pick up scraps from various forces, to now having a territory with two streets and four people under his control. Five people ate and worked with him.

Of course, the territory here is not the "territory" like in Young and Dangerous. It means that he and his men are only qualified to solicit customers on these two streets, and other people involved in the case are not allowed to enter these two streets.

The difficulties and risks experienced during this period were almost countless.

Although there is a lot of luck involved in his current achievements, it is mostly due to his own hard work, courage to fight, and persistence to never give up.

However, now he is facing a problem that makes him want to retreat.

More than half a month ago, his protector in Kabukicho, Kumada Masago, the leader of the Sumiyoshi Kai's Shinjuku office, committed suicide because he was unable to complete the protection fee task assigned by the organization on time.

The first moment he heard the news, he subconsciously thought that it must be just an April Fool's Day joke. How could a majestic and majestic big boss walking around Kabukicho commit suicide? Because of such a ridiculous reason.

However, subsequent facts told him that this was not a joke. His protector was also his good friend Kumada-san, and the cherry blossoms in his hometown were blooming.

The interests here in Kabukicho are huge. Not only Tokyo is looking at the taxes here, but various associations and groups are also looking at the protection fees here. No one can monopolize the interests here. Every six months, the forces here will face a reshuffle. .

They will meet at the foot of a quiet mountain for an unrestricted fighting match involving multiple people, punching to the flesh, and cutting bones with a knife. The loser will have to give up a certain amount of territory and reduce the income from protection fees.

Kumada Masako finished last in the competition three months ago. Now the Sumiyoshi Society's share of the protection fee has been reduced. Unfortunately, the monthly protection fee handed down by the superior organization has a fixed quota. Decrease due to failure.

As the team leader, Kumada Masahiro spent all his efforts and insisted on completing the three-month dues task. But in the fourth month, he found that he could not make up this high fee no matter what.

After losing the game and being very loyal to the organization, Kumada-san felt that he had not trusted the organization and that he had lost face as a man. He finally committed suicide at home with a gun in his heart of shame.

Although Xiong Tian's death was absurd and heroic, it brought Xu Tianmu a life-or-death crisis.

The reason why he was able to own two blocks of land in this money-making place was entirely due to the care of Kumada Masahiro. After losing the protection of this big backer, his land immediately became a place holding tens of millions of yen in his hand. Anyone can pick up a brat who is showing off in the market but has no power to tie a chicken.

Within a week after Kumada's death, his men clashed with members of other criminal organizations almost every day. South Koreans on the street next door to the ward office had openly come to his theater street to solicit customers.

Without Kumata's protection, Xu Tianmu was about to lose his foothold in Kabukicho. For him, he urgently needed a backer.

Xu Tianmu has been standing in front of the Koma Theater for more than half an hour.

This was a habit he developed after he started working as a case worker. I don’t know when, but every night before starting work, he liked to stand in front of this theater, which had a square appearance but an ancient Greek-style ring structure inside.

Stop for a while and let yourself relax.

This theater may be the only place in Kabukicho that does not involve sentimental feelings. Most of what is performed here is Japanese traditional arts such as Noh drama, kyogen, and enka, as well as Western plays such as operas and ballets, and occasionally some

Popular singers hold several concerts here.

Xu Tianmu started out as a student of opera in China. In the early 1970s, he was a pillar of the commune propaganda team and could be considered a practitioner in the art world.

Perhaps it was for this reason that he felt that only here could he calm down his impetuous mood caused by all kinds of complicated things.

Unfortunately, today's very effective habit could not calm his mood. He looked at the cigarette butts scattered under the trash can next to him and took out the last cigarette from the cigarette box.

After smoking this one, no matter what his mood was, he had to forcefully smile and play his role.

Maybe it was because he smoked too hard when he was feeling depressed. The seven-star cigarette that was originally mellow and refreshing now tasted bitter and dry, just like his mood at the moment.

After losing Xiong Tian as his protector, he had been thinking about how to solve the predicament surrounded by wolves for a long time, but he still had no clue.

"Forget it, just take it one step at a time. There is always a way, and you can always find a way." He comforted himself somewhat helplessly.

Then he put out most of the cigarette that was left, and said to himself in his heart: "It's better to seize the time and work, earn whatever you can, and think about the present first."



"School beauty, tell me, which type of person in this world is the least vocal?"

Under an overpass not far from Kabukicho, Nan Yi and the school beauty stood next to a street performer playing the saxophone, listening to him play a very familiar song "going home".

"President, he should be a man who becomes lustful when facing a woman in a special place."

Although the school belle's answer was a bit tactful, Nan Yi understood the meaning behind the words. It was pretty much what he thought. When lust arises, in front of women, too many men's mouths will become unguarded.

If you don't open the door, you can easily get some useful information.

Whether it's Ginza or Kabukicho here in Shinjuku, ghosts should keep a few eyes on them. Before Japan's recession, most of the people who could come to Kabukicho to spend money were middle- and high-level people from various clubs.

At this time, the consumption level in Kabukicho was very high. If you were to use your own money to play, you could only come once or twice a month, which is more, unless you have too much time left.

The middle and high-level people can use the entertainment fees in the club, and they can come over every once in a while to have a good time. It has to be said that the economic situation in Japan is very good now, and many clubs have no benefits.

A lot of useful information can be heard from the mouths of these middle and high-level people. This information can be transformed into reference and guidance for Nan's Rikuo strategy.

"Hey, Tianmu, so you are here." Just when Xu Tianmu was about to leave, he suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from not far away.

He turned around and saw a young man waving to him across the street. Under the blurry light of the neon lights, the man's appearance was unclear, but his figure looked very familiar.

Xu Tianmu took a few steps in that direction, and the man opposite also came over to greet him.

When the two were still about ten meters apart, Xu Tianmu finally recognized who this man was. Suddenly, a wave of ecstasy surged through his body from the bottom of his heart.

"Sangmen Xing, why are you here?" Xu Tianmu hurriedly took a few steps to greet him.

He tried his best to calm down, but his voice was still slightly trembling.

With a calm smile on his face, Bao Xu also took two steps forward, then stretched out his hand and said: "Tian Mu, I came here specifically to find you. I just walked around Kabukicho Street and didn't see you.

You later met Lao Li on Cherry Blossom Street and realized you were here."

Xu Tianmu held Bao Xu's hand hard, shook it enthusiastically several times, and said eagerly: "Oh, Sangmenxing, I had a hard time looking for you. It was because I was not smart at first, and I didn't know that I was such a loser.

There was a big dragon like you nesting in the barley, but I let you go. I regretted that I couldn't sleep well for a few days.

Why did you come to see me today?

Are you unhappy with your work in the factory? If you are unhappy with your work, come to me and I will help you buy out your status as a trainee, and we can conquer the world together here."

In normal times, Xu Tianmu would definitely not speak so subjectively and impulsively. He has the blood of a nine-headed bird, and he has always been shrewd. To take the initiative to speak like this, and to attract people to join the team with a little urgency and pleading, this is a good way to deal with things.

For him, who is steady, he has never made such a mistake before.

However, the situation he faced was really too bad. He had been trying to think of a way to solve the situation for the past two days to no avail. He was already worried and exhausted, but when he suddenly saw Bao Xu, whom he regarded as his savior, he felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

ecstasy.

Under such violent mood swings, it is normal for people to feel a little confused in their speech and behavior.

As for why Xu Tianmu values ​​Bao Xu so much, it has to start with Bao Xu’s brother Bao Gang. It is said that Bao Gang is a martial arts star who came down to earth and was born with supernatural powers. In the mid-1970s, he competed with the brigade next door in his hometown of Baocun.

At that time, I killed three people with my bare hands.

When the captain of the Baocun Brigade saw that something serious had happened, he couldn't take him to be shot. No, he had to let Bao Gang escape quickly.

Bao Gang escaped, traveled around and came to Tokyo, and joined an organization established in Tokyo by a Taiwanese man. This organization was of the same generation in Shinjuku. It mainly dealt with pachinko and underground casinos. It also had some strength in this area. Bao Gang

Gang shielding Xu Tianmu is more than enough to serve as an insider in the case.

"Tianmu, you are too polite. We can't talk about helping. I came here because I want to make a fortune with you, Tianmu." Bao Xu didn't care about Xu Tianmu's gaffe, and just followed his words and used the word "help"
