Because Jiang Wangzu's accounting tables were clear and concise.

Chen Tai also asked his superior, Master Qin of the Canal Gang Elders' Association, to give him a few words of praise.

So from then on, the task of keeping accounts for the Rongsheng Street gang's income fell to Jiang Wangzu.

Chen Tai also thought highly of him and rarely let him participate in those fighting and killing activities.

Now, besides acting as Chen Tai's accountant, he also collects protection money and watches over the casino.

These two jobs are much safer than debt collection or turf wars!

So Jiang Wangzu's current goal is to survive.

Once he gets his hands on Chen Tai's treasured Black Tiger Fist manual, he will secretly develop his skills and then amaze everyone.

As for leaving the canal gang, he had considered it.

But he also witnessed Heiwa's fate today.

Once you enter the world of martial arts, you're no longer in control of your own destiny!

What goes around comes around.

Even for top gang leaders who want to retire from crime and leave unscathed, it's not that easy.

Not to mention a lowly scoundrel like him!

Especially large gangs like the Canal Gang.

They also place great emphasis on rules and appearances.

Those who leave the gang without permission will be severely punished.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Jiang Wangzu naturally dared not gamble.

He could only accept being a rogue in the canal gang.

In the morning, I kept accounts and visited the casino.

They collect protection money in the afternoon.

That night, Ah Wei and I disposed of Heiwa's body in Longjiang.

Today was another fulfilling day!

On their way back from disposing of the body, Jiang Wangzu and Zhang Wei passed through Xinglong Street.

This is the territory of the Blue Society, one of the three major gangs in Shanghai.

The Blue Society, the Canal Gang, and the Hong Society are the three major gangs in Shanghai.

Behind the Grand Canal Gang stood warlords, behind the Hong Society stood financial magnates, and behind the Blue Society stood foreigners in the foreign concessions.

The three major forces are irreconcilable, and the supporters behind them are also vying for power.

Rongsheng Street and Xinglong Street happen to be bustling commercial streets in the Lower District, and they are not far apart, so they are in competition with each other.

Therefore, Zhang Hongshun, the leader of the Lan Society on Xinglong Street, and Chen Tai, the boss of Rongsheng Street, became mortal enemies.

The person who knocked Jiang Wangzu's predecessor off his head was most likely someone from the Blue Society.

However, Jiang Wangzu had neither the ability nor the evidence.

Therefore, he was unable to avenge his predecessor.

As fate would have it, Jiang Wangzu and Zhang Wei, returning from the banks of the Longjiang River, ran right into a group of hooligans from Xinglong Street of the Lanshe gang.

"They're just two punks from Rongsheng Street, beat them up!"

The group of hooligans sized up Jiang Wangzu and Zhang Wei before one of them recognized them.

So everyone grabbed their weapons and charged straight at Jiang Wangzu and Zhang Wei.

"Holy crap!"

"Wei, this is a tough situation, let's get out of here!"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Wangzu turned and ran, showing absolutely no intention of staying to clash with the Lan Society hooligans.

Zhang Wei wasn't quite sure what Jiang Wangzu was muttering.

But when he saw Jiang Wangzu take off running, he didn't hesitate any longer and ran away as fast as he could.

"That pretty boy is Chen Tai's strategist, kill him!"

"Damn, this kid's really handsome. Scratch his face! Shanghai won't tolerate someone this handsome!"

"..."

Seven or eight ruffians from the Blue Society, armed with daggers, iron bars, axes, and other weapons, chased after Jiang Wangzu and Zhang Wei.

Jiang Wangzu had indeed mastered the Iron Crotch Kung Fu, a powerful external martial art, making him much stronger than the average person.

So he rode ahead of everyone else, leaving Zhang Wei and the Lan gang of hooligans far behind.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei immediately darted into the alley and ran away separately from Jiang Wangzu.

He now only prays that Jiang Wangzu can help him share some of the firepower.

Just as Zhang Wei had predicted.

Those people's main target was still Jiang Wangzu.

Only three people came to chase after him.

There were five people who continued to pursue Jiang Wangzu.

Jiang Wangzu ran wildly, and in his panic, he ended up on the main street of Shangcheng District in Shanghai.

He stopped, his eyes glazed over by the neon lights.

After a long while, he gradually adapted to the light intensity and saw the Xianlemen Dance Hall, the number one dance hall in Shanghai.

"Cinque Music?"

"The mastermind behind the Xianle Sect has incredibly powerful connections; even the three major gangs wouldn't dare to mess with them easily. A bunch of low-level thugs from the Blue Society would never dare to cause trouble here!"

Jiang Wangzu saw the neon-lit Xianle Gate and, without hesitation, wanted to go inside.

"Sir, the admission fee is one thousand silver dollars!"

Just then, a waiter dressed in a suit, bow tie, and white gloves reached out and stopped Jiang Wangzu.

Jiang Wangzu: "???"

me?

Do you think I'm worth a thousand dollars?

"Brother, I'm here to look for a job."

"Look at me, I'm not here to spend money!"

Jiang Wangzu rolled his eyes, then smiled faintly.

He stepped halfway into the Xianle Gate, then quietly retreated.

"You got the job through connections, but judging by your looks, you should have no problem getting a waiter position!"

The tall, ramrod-straight waiter looked Jiang Wangzu up and down, a smile on his face, and spoke.

Xianlemen was the premier dance hall in Shanghai, where singers performed almost every day, and the dancers were all stunning beauties.

Even those applying for male waiters here need to be exceptionally good-looking.

So when Jiang Wangzu said he was there to apply for a job, the waiter didn't suspect anything.

Thank you!

Jiang Wangzu clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, then immediately walked towards the back door of Xianlemen.

"Knock knock knock!"

Jiang Wangzu arrived at the back door of the Xianlemen Dance Hall and knocked on the door.

Squeak!

A middle-aged man in a black long coat opened the door, looked Jiang Wangzu up and down, and then spoke directly:

"You're here to apply for a waiter position, right? You're not bad looking, buddy. Go in and register. Whether you get the job or not will depend on the manager's interview and final decision."

Thank you!

And so, Jiang Wangzu successfully slipped into Xianle Gate and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, he was overthinking it. The few hooligans from the Blue Society stopped chasing him once they saw him run into the upper city.

Because this area has long been outside the Blue Society's territory, and this is the Upper City, where the people living here are either rich or noble, or at least middle class, so they wouldn't dare to cause trouble here.

Moreover, they were already so exhausted that they didn't even have the strength to stab anyone, let alone chase after Jiang Wangzu.

After entering the back gate of Xianlemen, Jiang Wangzu slipped out of the long line of recruiters; he had no interest in working as a waiter here.

If that mad dog Chen Tai finds out about this, he'll be in for a job at Xianlemen and will be punished with the "Three Cuts and Six Holes" family discipline!

This is absolutely brutal!

He went directly from the backyard to the front hall.

Xianlemen.

Front lobby.

The neon lights are flashing here.

On the stage, young, beautiful, and stylish dancers swayed their bodies.

Another stunning woman, sporting a perm with soft waves, wearing a gorgeous cheongsam and high heels, sang on stage.

"The gates of the celestial music hall open, and neon lights become a sea."

"Champagne glistens with gold, old dreams awaken!"
