enchanting bodyguard

Imperial tripod?

This is a very interesting metaphor, and Zhou Dongfei has already vaguely understood it.The old monster's thinking was very jumpy, just now he was talking and laughing with a demonic vibe, and he talked about such a serious and formal topic in a blink of an eye.It is estimated that apart from Zhou Dongfei and his disciples and grandchildren who follow him all day long, the rest of them will really feel a little uncomfortable.

Today, Sister Mei Group has truly evolved into a huge underground empire.However, if such an empire wants to be truly stable, only two points are not enough.Two points determine a straight line, and three points determine a stable plane.

In fact, any power that can truly be called an underground empire in ancient and modern China and abroad cannot do without these three points--

politics!

wealth!

manpower!

With Zhou Dongfei, Yin Yan, Lu Fengsheng, Bai Jialin and many other masters, Mei Jie's underground empire does not lack this kind of high-end and ultra-high-end manpower;

At the same time, the empire, which has inherited Qian Shitong and Qiyu's underground kingdom and has assets of more than 600 billion, is not short of wealth.Moreover, the establishment of Xinyi Holdings Group allowed the old monster to see the powerful space for this wealth kingdom to continue to rise.So, he says this second leg has been erected.

The only scarce resource now is a strong political background.

Although Zhou Dongfei and sister Meimei knew several provincial and ministerial cadres, their political background was too limited.And even if they knew these things, Di Sheng, secretary of the provincial party committee, and others were not considerate, and Ning Youxin from the Ministry of Public Security was not something that Zhou Dongfei could drive at will.Now it seems that Li Zhengfeng, the deputy governor, may be the only one who can be completely reliable.

In this huge country with hundreds of cadres at the provincial and ministerial levels, their political power is really limited.Fortunately, they are most closely connected with the Shadow and the Ministry of Public Security. These two departments have the most direct relationship with the underground world, so Meijie Group can occupy some advantages.

"If it is really a competition of background strength, not to mention the old eunuch Qiu, even Qi Yu or Qian Shitong is more solid than you are now." The old monster turned around slowly, and said calmly, "In the officialdom of the three eastern provinces, Qi Yu is almost Can take everything. In the official circles of Shuzhong, Dianyun, Yuqing, Jinzhong and other places, Qian Shitong was almost unimpeded at the time. Including your senior brother, after 30 to [-] years of struggle and management, he can also do it in the Jiangnan area It's like a fish in water. But as long as you and Xiaomei leave Hedong Province, you won't even be able to get acquainted with a decent local leader."

"That's because you have partiality, and the huge resources in your hands have been handed over to the elder brother." Zhou Dongfei laughed.

But the old monster shook his head, and said in a mysterious way, "My status is special, and I don't represent any party. Therefore, I don't have any political shadows for you. Including your senior brother, he is indeed doing it himself in this regard. from."

"Doesn't represent either side?" Zhou Dongfei was startled suddenly.He immediately thought of what the big brother said about the "stop dispute order".Judging in this way, the old monster seems to be above all forces.Could it be that he actually represents--the highest level?

"The accumulation of the Green Gang's previous life has given our department a unique advantage. But as a price, I cannot participate in the competition of any branch. This is a promise to the country. When I took over the country's handover My mission of coordinating the underground world is almost cut off from the Qing Gang. We old guys do not represent the Qing Gang, and some things we have mastered cannot be handed over to the Qing Gang." The old monster said, "After a hundred years of me, some things I won't give it to you, and I won't give it to your senior brother. At the beginning, I wanted to train your senior brother to become a powerful party in the underground world, including now thinking that you and Xiaomei can grow and develop, it is also out of my own selfishness."

What exactly does it mean?

The identity of the old monster is the leader of the Green Gang.But when he accepted the order of the state and became the general coordinator of the underground world, he could only keep his identity as a student of the Youth Gang, but he could no longer work for the Youth Gang.And as compensation, the state will never take action against the Qing Gang in Shanghai City—as long as it doesn't do things that are too harmful or endanger stability.

The will of the country is irresistible, otherwise the Qinggang, the most powerful at that time, may face a huge risk of being shot at the top.Moreover, the country's compensation policy is tantamount to giving the Green Gang a ten-thousand-year camp in Shanghai Beach.Although it is no longer expansive, at least inheritance and continuation are no problem.Because the Green Gang in Shanghai Beach is a direct line, orthodox, and it is very important, which is far beyond what Qiu De can compare with that marginalized side branch.

Therefore, the group of big bosses of the Green Gang headed by the old monster—such as Master Huijue, the "drunk people" Qiulao, Feng Tiannan, etc., after thinking about it, they thought it was more cost-effective, and formed a group of detached people. power.This force holds the "Stop Dispute Order" and strictly guarantees absolute neutrality.

And the old monster also gave up his status as the number one occupant of the Green Gang, and handed over all the power to an elder.Later, that elder, as a transitional figure, handed over this power to Zhang Tianding.As for staying in Shanghai, it is because this city is the root of the Green Gang.Of course, Qiu Deyong didn't know the truth at the beginning, and tried to reach out to Shanghai Beach.As a result, with the assistance of the state, Zhang Tianding fought back fiercely.This can be regarded as the fulfillment of the country's commitment to the Youth Gang.

But then the old monster and a group of people gradually got old, and the upper class couldn't find a character with the strength and appeal of the old monster, so they continued to suppress the underground tyrants.So under the suggestion of the old monster, a purely violent organization - the Shadow Special Operations Brigade was simply formed.In order to maximize his own interests, the old monster sent his second disciple Cheng Qinghu into the shadows.It's just that Zhou Dongfei didn't listen to the old monster's arrangement, and actually followed Cheng Qinghu into this special army.

But as a disciple of the Green Gang, the old monster is naturally closer to the faction he was born in.Therefore, even if we abide by the principle of neutrality, we still hope that the Youth Gang can develop and grow on its own.So he was very excited to see Zhang Tianding and sister Mei become the overlords of the underground world respectively.Of course, for Zhang Tianding, a long-term disciple of the direct line, the old monster still hopes that the mainstream of the Qing Gang, which is rooted in red and out-of-the-box, will grow stronger.So when the "above" asked for his opinion, he also agreed to let Zhang Tianding take over Qiu Deyong's territory to the maximum extent.This point also fits the requirement of "balance of power" above, so it hit it off.

During the time when the old monster shouldered the deadly mission, he got to know a wide range of people and their ranks were quite high.However, he cannot hand over these political fortunes to his next generation.Otherwise, it violates the agreement with the country.On the other hand, at that time, the old monster and others abided by the agreement, even if they got to know any important person, they could only be limited to official contacts and could not establish any personal relationship.This point is also necessary to ensure the absolute neutrality of their small group.

Therefore, when the several families were in dispute, the old monster did not use the upper-level contacts to favor Sister Mei and Zhou Dongfei.Now that the situation is initially settled, he has no need to break the rules and the agreement between himself and the country.

The old monster said indifferently: "In addition, many political relationships that can be confidant cannot be stabilized by meeting occasionally. This is like a seed, which is difficult to grow when you throw it into the soil casually. You need to keep cultivating and nourishing it." It's a long process. But..."

The old monster paused, obviously feeling conflicted about something: "Although it is a long-term process, we must hurry up, otherwise there will be some unforeseen variables in many things. The situation in the domestic underground world seems to be stable now, but external pressure But it is getting bigger and bigger. The underground catastrophe 30 years ago has already shown signs of corresponding. If it does not erupt, it will be a monstrous wave of blood."

"Outside?" Zhou Dongfei said, "At present, it is known that the people who have thoughts about us are mainly the Xuanyangsha of the island country--I will find a way to remove this nail. The underground tsar of Russia in the north, Constantine, has been screwed by me. It's going to be a big blow to your vitality. As for the South, I guess the Poison King might be dishonest."

"The three parties you mentioned do indeed constitute the most direct threat to you, but that's not all. Moreover, Constantine is nothing more than temporarily avoiding the limelight, and the pressure to make a comeback will definitely be a little more powerful when the time comes."

"Fighting on the two fronts in the east and north is indeed the most troublesome thing for me." Zhou Dongfei said, "So before going to the island of Japan, I took advantage of the Yang family's incident to solve Constantine, even if I only got three or two years The stability of the northern part is to guard against enemies from both sides."

"Two lines?" The old monster sneered, "If I hadn't been to the Golden Triangle a while ago, I guess you would have been attacked on the third line. Of course, from now on, you don't have to pay attention to Suchai, the poison king of the Golden Triangle, he is already honest."

Stamp! It turns out that there is still such a thing!

After taking over Qian Shitong's underground kingdom, Zhou Dongfei resolutely cut off two kinds of business - arms smuggling and drug smuggling.As a result, the Russian underground tsar who sold arms couldn't sit still, and had a lot of conflicts with Zhou Dongfei.However, Suchai, the "drug king" who produces and sells drugs in the south, has remained silent.It turned out that Li Feng, the lord who guarded Dianyun, was still trembling, for fear that the poisonous king would go crazy, but in the end, he has continued steadily until now.All along, Zhou Dongfei thought that he had a good character, or that the poisonous king could bear it.Only now do I know that the old monster went to the Poison King's place in person.

And what does the phrase "he is already honest" mean? It means that the poison king must have suffered a lot in the hands of the old monster.Moreover, this loss was so painful that he didn't even dare to resist.

During the recent period, Zhou Dongfei was running around, fighting south and north, and it was almost impossible to escape.If the Poison King in the south had stepped in at that time, Zhou Dongfei really couldn't handle it.

The old monster has been unknown to the public, but secretly still did a lot of things for his disciples.However, Zhou Dongfei would not say thank you to him.The pair of master and apprentice are enemies on the surface, but the deep-rooted master-student relationship makes some politeness indifferent.

Zhou Dongfei said with a smile: "So, next step, I just need to destroy Xuanyang Society, and if possible, give Constantine a hard time to beat the dog in the water. I think things will be stable."

The old monster sighed: "The thing I'm afraid of is that you'll always look at the problem from a local perspective. When the trouble comes, you'll solve the trouble. When the trouble doesn't come, you won't be able to see it. It doesn't work if you have a headache. The senior brother and the second senior brother said that Madman Wei and Masao Kameto escaped in the special plane of U.S. Senator Luciano that day?"

Zhou Dongfei nodded.
