Chapter 4312 The underground industry has also become an army
Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, your life and death at that time really depended on a single thought. Liu Tingyun was actually hesitating and entangled, because no matter how Huan Xuan said he was her husband, the Chu Dynasty was over, so to her
There is no benefit. Especially her relationship with Wang Miaoyin. If she doesn't report you, she will be putting herself in great danger."
Meng Huaiyu nodded: "That's true. It's hard for me to imagine that Liu Tingyun would let us go. Where does her self-confidence come from? Even from Brother Xile, she can't guarantee that she will definitely follow suit.
She should cooperate, is it possible that there has been a connection between them for a long time?"
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "It's true that there is a connection, because there are many underground industries in Jiankang City, and the major families are fighting openly and secretly, so they need guards and bodyguards. If you ask Ding Buqu, a servant of this family, to be a bodyguard, there will be
Fighting will make these shady industries public and even involve the children of the family, but if it is left to capable outsiders, Jianghu gangs, to protect them, then there will be no such problem."
Liu Yu nodded: "I understand. After the Battle of Feishui, Xile began to establish his own power in the capital. He established a gang to collect such protection fees and cooperated with high-ranking families. What do you mean,
After the establishment of Huan Chu, although he only ruled for a short period of less than a year, during this period, Liu Tingyun continued to maintain a cooperative relationship with Xile through your intermediary, right? "
Zhou said sternly: "Yes, this kind of shady underground force is illegal in itself. If Huan Xuan is really determined to pursue it, it can be uprooted. Moreover, Liu Xile was not the only one of these underground gang forces in the capital at that time.
Yes, there are also many killers, caravans, and even Hulu swordsmen brought by aristocratic families from other places. Liu Xile's gangs mostly rely on retired Beifu veterans, and their backers are Xie Hun, Xi Sengshi and others.
The branch of the Aristocratic Family does not have a strong backing, so after more than ten years of operation in the capital, it has not reached the point where it is the only one."
"But thanks to the cooperation with Liu Tingyun, Brother Xile has developed much faster in this year than in the previous ten years combined. With various underground fights and killings, he has almost merged and
We have unified half of the underground industries in Jiankang City, and our Meng family has also begun to get involved in these businesses. Huaiyu, you should still remember that I said that I have ways to arrange for your old brothers who have returned from the army.
Let’s go somewhere.”
Meng Huaiyu murmured: "No wonder Zhuzi, Shitou and the others settled in Jiankang and opened a shop. I thought they were doing business, but I also wonder that every inch of land under the emperor's feet is precious. Where did they get the money?
Every time I asked about it, they would drink and fight to deal with it. One time Zhuzhu asked me so hard that he said he met a noble person and worked for him. I thought they were affiliated with some aristocratic family, but it turned out to be you, my aunt!
"
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "If they weren't someone they trusted very much, how could they be willing to sell their property in their hometown and settle here in Jiankang City? It was only because of my intervention that they believed in me and were willing to take over these matters.
The shops on the street are secretly fighting and killing to seize the land."
Meng Huaiyu gritted his teeth: "So, Zhu Zhu, Shitou and their families do not live in Jiankang City, but settled in Jingkou. It is probably because of this consideration."
Zhou nodded: "Yes, many of the people offended by these underground killings are gangsters. These people will attack their families. In Jiankang City, I don't trust their families to be handed over to them."
Liu Tingyun protects, so only in Jingkou and around us are those people who dare not invade, and Zhuzhu and the others can work with peace of mind. Huaiyu, don't look down on them. They are a large part of your army's military supplies.
It’s all Zhuzhu and the others who risked their lives to get it.”
Meng Huaiyu's eyes sparkled with tears: "I didn't expect that Zhu Zhu and the others did not go to enjoy happiness, but to run this kind of underground life of swords and swords. I thought they looked down on their former brothers after they became rich and stopped communicating with us.
I can’t wait to go find them now and talk about the brotherhood again.”
Zhou said sternly: "That will have to wait until after the war. They have now been drafted into the army and have joined Liu Xile's subordinates. It is not appropriate for you to go find them now. With your delicate relationship with Liu Xile, Xile may be
If there is a misunderstanding, when the foreign enemy has not arrived, conflicts will arise among our own people first, which will cause trouble."
Meng Huaiyu nodded and said: "I understand, I will do what you want. I should go back early to prepare for war. Auntie, I already know most of these things. After Jianyi, Liu Tingyun changed the family in time and became Xi Le.
Brother Xile's wife, and my uncle also used his identity as Jing Zhaoyin to protect these underground industries. Over the past few years, almost all the underground industries in Jiankang City belonged to Brother Xile and his uncle, but many of them were actually
Liu Tingyun is in control, is that right?"
Zhou nodded: "Yes, because Liu Tingyun relies on these things to make friends with small and medium-sized aristocratic families. She will not touch the properties of big aristocratic families such as the Wang family, Xie family, and Yu family, but some of the original small and medium-sized aristocratic families, especially those from Wu
She was not polite about the rich man's property in the capital. Many of Xi Lege's subordinates were themselves gangsters. During the Taiping Period, the army's establishment shrank, and when tens of thousands of troops could no longer be supported, these people were sent to Jiankang City one after another.
He became the bodyguard of the underground industry. However, this arrangement turned out to be an unexpected blessing. This time when the demon thieves attacked, Brother Xile re-recruited these old troops after his return, and he had more than ten thousand troops.
No less than the regular army you came back from Liyang."
Meng Huaiyu nodded: "Yes, I was also surprised before, why Brother Xile raised another army just a few days after he came back. It turns out that there was a plan for it, but my aunt may not be too partial.
My old brothers in the army are like stones and pillars, why don't you let them come to me?"
Zhou said calmly: "Because it was Brother Jinu who personally appointed Brother Xile as the general in the south of the city, and he will lead the defense of the entire south of the city as the general of guard. Even you are his subordinates. At this time, the overall situation is the most important thing, Xi Le
Brother Le's management and layout in the city are not comparable to that of a pure soldier like you, but I think after this experience, you should also know how to develop your own power."
Having said this, Mrs. Zhou saluted Liu Yu: "Yanda is no longer here, Brother Jinu, Huaiyu is now the only child of our Meng family, please take good care of her in the future."
