Chapter 311 Red Stick, Do You Know the Rules?
Wide-brimmed hat?
Block site for inspection?
These two words together give me a bad feeling.
Could it be that that Beijing gangster found out that I got on this train?
"Pooh!" Brother Guangrong spat hard.
He was very dissatisfied and said, "Fuck them! They come to check every few days!"
"Hurry up and move the goods out!"
"Everyone get out of the car and get to work!"
Following Brother Guangrong’s roar, more than a dozen people jumped out of the back of the truck.
Shorty jumped off the platform with them.
Run under the window on the other side of the caboose.
Brother Guangrong ordered the other two brothers to pick up my goods and pass them out through the window.
The person below took the box and ran towards the bungalow area across the railway without looking back.
Usually opposite the train station, there will be a bungalow area of varying sizes.
That is the living quarters for the station staff.
Some larger residential areas for railway employees are called iron villages.
Brother Guangrong used that place as his base and ran it in a very tight manner.
When they were carrying goods that could not be seen in public or in an emergency, they would go into the bungalow area opposite.
Snapped!
Brother Guangrong patted my shoulder and said, "Don't panic, we can handle it."
"Shorty will take you to the lower sandbar."
"I'll stay and deal with the wide-brimmed hat."
Seeing Brother Guangrong so confident, I feel a little more at ease.
"How much is the shipping fee? I'll give you first..."
Brother Guangrong waved his hands and said, "No need for that."
"Brother Yunqiang's goods are my pride."
"Go, go, go!"
The last box of goods was handed down through the window.
I didn't act pretentiously and bowed to Brother Guangrong: "See you later, I'll treat you to a drink."
"That's all right, I'll get drunk."
At this time, a noise was heard not far away.
I saw the man in the wide-brimmed hat pushing away the stevedores who were blocking the way and walking towards us with great momentum.
Two of them, wearing wide-brimmed hats, escorted someone.
Looking closely, I saw that the person being escorted was Wu Liuzhi!
Wu Liuzhi was grabbed by the shoulders and arms by two men in wide-brimmed hats, and his waist was bent to 90 degrees.
While I was stunned, Brother Guangrong pushed me hard.
"Run!"
"I'll take care of the rest!"
Shorty grabbed me and ran towards the bungalow area opposite without looking back.
After entering the bungalow area, I turned my head and looked back.
The man in the wide-brimmed hat didn't chase after me!
Instead, he was talking to Brother Guangrong and Zhang Hai by the platform, and he had no idea what they were talking about.
Isn't it... directed at me?
But no matter who they are targeting, the best strategy is to run away.
Shorty took me through twists and turns in the alleys.
I was so dizzy from all the spinning that I finally ran out of the bungalow area and onto the main road.
There was a walking tractor parked by the roadside.
Boxes of all sizes were neatly stacked in the back truck.
The dozen or so people who had just moved the boxes were throwing firewood into the back bucket to cover it up.
Soon the firewood covered the box and raised it up a lot.
The short guy said, "Get in the car."
We both climbed onto the back of the truck and sat on the raised pile of firewood.
"Yellow Fang is driving!"
"Hold on tight!"
The tractor started to move with a humming sound.
We were tossed all over the place and almost fell off the pile of firewood.
The short guy pulled me to lie down on the pile of firewood.
"If you lie down, you won't be afraid of the bumps."
"The lower sandbar is a little far, so you can lie down and take a nap."
How could I have the heart to lie down and sleep?
I always look back, afraid that someone in a wide-brimmed hat will catch up with me.
"Are you all afraid of Lin Qiang?" I asked for the sake of conversation.
"Brother Qiang is awesome. We're not afraid of him, we respect him."
"You don't know how powerful Brother Qiang's background is."
"His brother, Lin Wei, swam across the river to Hong Kong Island a few years ago, joined the gang and started as a "Four-Nine Boy" but was beaten into a "Red Stick"."
"So impressive!"
The Hong Kong Island Gang evolved from the Hong Kong Gang.
Titles such as the 48th Lord of Nine Fragrances and the 438th Marshal were all passed down within the Hong Gang.
Sijiuzi is an ordinary member of the gang.
It is also the largest group in the hall.
It is very difficult to get promoted in the gang, and most of the "Four-Nine-Year-Olds" will remain "Four-Nine-Year-Olds" for their entire lives.
Later, Young and Dangerous movies became very popular.
Every gangster in the movie looks very impressive, but in reality, nine out of ten gangsters are idiots and don’t have a very good life.
Above the 49th, there are 432nd straw sandals, 415th white paper fans, and 426th red sticks.
When the Hong Gang was popular, Hong Gun was written as Hong Gun.
He is the gang's gold medal fighter.
Becoming a Red Stick can be said to be the dream of every member in the gang.
A Hongmen poem goes: "This stick originated from Baonan Mountain. The Five Ancestors passed it down to fight against the enemy. It is specifically used to fight against the lawless members of the Hong family. One hundred and eight will determine the country."
From the content of the poem, it can be seen that the red stick has actual executive power in the hall.
After being promoted to Red Stick, one can not only open a hall to recruit people, but also handle all matters on his own.
Simply put, the Red Stick is equivalent to a branch manager. If he is strong enough, he can be promoted to the position of the boss and become the person in charge of the group.
Those who can sit in the position of Red Stick in Hong Kong Island are all the toughest among the tough.
The fact that Lin Qiang has the power that makes Brother Guangrong fear him has a lot to do with his brother.
The short guy continued, "Brother Wei has become a Red Stick and opened a gang. He sent someone back to contact Brother Qiang and start a water business."
"At night, the freighter sailed from Hong Kong Island to Xiashazhou to unload cargo."
"Watches, radios, medicines, etc. are all hot items."
"You can make a fortune just by selling it."
In the late 1970s, smuggling of goods on the water became increasingly rampant.
Since 81, relevant departments have cracked down on this.
"The big-brimmed hat doesn't dare to check Brother Qiang."
"But he keeps coming to the cargo yard to cause trouble for us. Sigh!"
The shorty shook his head and sighed.
I casually said, "Does the wide-brimmed hat often go to the warehouse for inspection?"
"Of course. A lot of goods that come from the water and are transported inland have to go by rail."
“Many people use cars to pull it back.”
"But the roads are not peaceful either. There are checkpoints at many places."
"But this kind of business is so profitable that it's worth taking any risk."
This is true.
The goods brought up by water are extremely cheap, and as long as they can be shipped back, you can make a lot of money.
As the sun was setting, Shorty pointed to a nearby fishing village by the sea and said, "We'll be there soon."
I turned my head and looked towards the fishing village.
But we felt someone was watching us.
The old men resting in the fields, the women digging vegetables, and even the children running and playing in the fields would look at us intentionally or unintentionally.
There was vigilance in their eyes.
It seems like they treat us as enemies.
"Shorty, are you sure you're in the right place?" I asked nervously.
"It won't go wrong."
"Is it their gaze that makes you uncomfortable?"
"Don't worry, it's all Brother Qiang's spies."
"Brother Qiang's men are everywhere around here. He'll know about any disturbance."
I was stunned.
Trying hard to digest what Shorty said.
It turns out that everyone in the nearby villages is Lin Qiang's spies.
A hand tractor drove into the fishing village.
Several young men in flowered shirts, each holding a hunting rifle, stood on the roadside and waved to the tractor to stop.
The short guy quickly pointed at me and said to the men in flowered shirts, "This guy is delivering goods for the boss from Hong Kong Island. He's delivering the goods to Brother Qiang."
The leader in the flowered shirt pointed at me and then at the open space in front of him.
Motioned me to go down and talk.
I jumped off the tractor and before I could even stand firmly, the muzzle of a gun was already against my forehead.
The man in the flowered shirt said with a playful smile, "Do you know the rules?"
"We only deliver people here, never deliver goods!"
"Who the hell asked you to go undercover?!"
