The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 93 This is what America is like
At Dingshilou, more than half an hour after Chen Zhengwei left, chaotic gunfire was heard in the distance, like frying beans.

Even the disciples of the martial arts school were a little frightened.

How many guns are needed? This is simply a war.

After a long time, the door of the restaurant was pushed open and Chen Zhengwei strode in.

Seeing Chen Qiaoniang sitting in her seat and talking quietly to Lin Changning, Chen Zhengwei directly picked up Qiaoniang and put her aside, saying with a smile:

"Why, you want to usurp the throne?"

"Why don't you want to eat anymore? Are you full? I'm still hungry! Boss, bring up another table of hot food!" Chen Zhengwei greeted with a smile.

As soon as he came over, Lin Changning noticed some blood on his body and the strong smell of gunpowder.

"This is how it is in the United States. You'll get used to it!" Chen Zhengwei said with a smile.

"So it's very dangerous for a person to go out alone, especially for a woman. People here think sows are pretty!"

"It's not that exaggerated!" Lin Changning was a little unconvinced.

"I can testify to this! Yuanbao looked at the pigs raised by other people for a long time that day and his drooling started!" Koushuikuan pointed at another junior brother and said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense! I was just hungry that day!" Yuanbao quickly explained.

"Okay, explanation is cover-up!" Chen Zhengwei laughed and choked the ingot back.

Seeing that Yuanbao didn't say anything, Chen Zhengwei said slowly: "Not explaining means you agree!"

"Senior Brother, you have already said all the words, what should I say?" Yuanbao's face twitched.

Seeing Chen Zhengwei looking normal, chatting and laughing with the people at the table, as if nothing had happened, Lin Changning couldn't help but ask, "Did a lot of people die just now?"

"Maybe dozens of them! It's a daily routine...it happens every day! Since they are out there, they are risking their lives for wealth and fame. I knew this day would come!" Chen Zhengwei said lightly.

"By the way, do you want a gun? I'll give you one for self-defense!"

"Okay!" Lin Changning said seriously, and at the same time reached out and touched his waist.

She subconsciously touched the handle of the knife to feel at ease.

These days, things are not peaceful anywhere. After Lin Mingsheng arrived in the United States, a lot of things happened in Singapore, and she also developed the habit of carrying a knife with her.

But she doesn't mind learning how to use a gun.

I have only seen muskets in Singapore before, but the ones used by Chen Zhengwei and his men seem to be different.

"Brother, you said before that you would give me one!" Chen Qiaoniang interrupted.

"I'll get you one tomorrow!" Chen Zhengwei agreed without hesitation.

"Qiao Niang is so young..." Gong Yanyong frowned. He was also very familiar with Qiao Niang and Chen Zhengwu.

"Girls should learn how to use guns to protect themselves!" Chen Zhengwei said casually.

After dinner, Chen Zhengwei said to Li Xiwen, "You stay here and send my junior sister back later! I'll go back and take care of some things."

"Damn, why is my day so busy?"

Although two gangs have been destroyed, there are still many things to do next.

Just as he thought, almost all the money from the two gangs was taken away.

Dayanchang's home was also searched, and although there were still some valuables, the cash, gold bars, and land deeds were all gone. Now that Dayanchang died in Chen Zhenghu's hands, it would be difficult to recover these things.

Although Gou Gen also took the money away, he was still hiding in Chinatown. As long as he was caught, he could get his money back. And the most important thing was the territory of the two gangs. The Lotz Street where Danshan Hall was located was quite prosperous.

The territory of the Agreement Hall includes a 200-meter-long section of Duban Street, half of Jackson Street, and Washington Alley. Although it is called an alley, it is about the same size as Lords Street.

The fight just now took place in Washington Alley.

After taking over these two pieces of territory, Chen Zhengwei controlled four and a half of the sixteen blocks in Chinatown, occupying one-third of the area of Chinatown.

The most important point is that the site of the Agreement Hall is next to Portsmouth Square.

Portsmouth Square is surrounded by Chinatown on three sides, with the west and south sides being the territory of Hong Shun Tang, and the north being the territory of Yiye Tang.

Originally, Chen Zhengwei's territory was far away from the square, and if he wanted to send people there, he had to pass through the territories of several gangs.

Now that he has taken over the territory of the Agreement Hall, the square is also his territory.

……

In a house in Chinatown, a woman was kneeling on a couch, and Mr. Quan was lying on his side on the woman's lap, holding a large pipe in his hand.

The dim light of the kerosene lamp not far away shone on Mr. Quan's face, half of which was hidden in the shadows.

"I can't be involved in this matter!" Mr. Quan said directly.

"Uncle Quan, that Chen Zhengwei is the leader of the pack. Look at what he has done these days. He has already taken over several gangs. If he continues like this, I'm afraid he won't even be afraid of you!" Lao Guidong said softly.

"It's not that I won't help you. Although he used a gun this time, he did it under the name of the Investigation Bureau. In the final analysis, it was you who were given the opportunity by him this time!" Mr. Quan said lightly.

"Uncle Quan, we didn't do this. I suspect they directed and acted this out themselves, and their target was Dayanchang and Gougen!" Lao Guidong said.

Mr. Quan took two puffs of his opium, and his eyes brightened a little, but he didn't say anything.

In fact, Chen Zhengwei has been too active these days and has expanded too quickly, which has made him very vigilant.

However, in this matter, Chen Zhengwei holds the power of the Investigation Bureau, so even if he shows up, he will only bring trouble upon himself.

Lao Guidong waited for a while, and when he saw that Master Quan didn't speak, he knew that he would not show up, so he said again: "Uncle Quan, I want to merge Guangde Hall into Hongshun Hall!"

"Are you willing to give up the foundation you've built over so many years?" Lord Quan was a little surprised and propped himself up and said.

"That Chen Zhengwei is the leader of the pack. He will definitely not be satisfied after swallowing all these. Only Lord Quan can suppress him. My Guangde Hall may be swallowed up by him at any time. It is better to merge it into Hongshun Hall.

Mr. Quan, just leave me a few businesses to support me in my old age!" Old Guidong sighed.

"Since you said so, I have no reason not to agree! Let's do this! I will invite other halls to watch the ceremony in three days!" Lord Quan thought about it and agreed.

Although he was somewhat wary of Chen Zhengwei's current momentum, he was not afraid of it.

After all, Chen Zhengwei only has more than a hundred men under his command, while Hong Shun Tang has more than 800 axemen, and together with Guangde Tang, there are more than 1,100 men in total.

It will take a long time for Chen Zhengwei to develop to the point where he can threaten him.

After a moment, Lao Guidong left with a little disappointment.

Mr. Quan lay back on the woman's lap and smoked opium, his eyes flickering.

Although he was not going to show up this time, he had already developed the intention to kill Chen Zhengwei.

If he continues to make trouble, Chinatown will become a mess.

The status of Hong Shun Tang in Chinatown will also be affected.
