Tianjin is home to goods and wealth from all over the world, and it also attracts merchants from all over the world to trade here. The bustling Tianjin Port never stops from morning to night.
There are so many cargo ships that they can't even park here. They can only wait in the outer sea area and enter the port in order. The fishing boats that come here every day transport mountains of sea fish here, and then they are quickly transported to the capital and delivered to thousands of households. On the table.
In addition to the prosperous trade, the most important thing in Tianjin is still the countless factories and workshops. In the area of ????factories and workshops, there are thousands of workshops and factories, large and small, roaring day and night.
The cement produced here is sold all over the Ming Dynasty, and has even been sold to Persia and the Middle East; the cloth produced here is exported to Europe, with high quality and low price, and demand exceeds supply. The only thing to worry about is that the prices of cotton and wool are going up again; production here The glass products produced are exquisite and are the favorites of the upper class in Europe, the Middle East, and the Ottoman Empire, bringing a steady stream of gold and silver; the four-wheeled carriages produced here travel across every land of the Ming Dynasty, and hundreds of famous brands Ships produced by large and small shipyards sail in all major sea areas of the world.
This is Tianjin, now the most prosperous and lively city in the Ming Dynasty. It is even more prosperous than the capital of the Ming Dynasty, with a population of several million.
Whenever commuting here, the spacious concrete roads are crowded with people going to and from work. There are countless four-wheeled carriages carrying loads of goods constantly going back and forth.
The prosperous city, the rapid development of capitalism and colonialism has brought endless wealth to the city, but also brought more and more problems.
Law and order issues and rampant gangs are among the things that worry the people of Tianjin the most.
Among them, the most chaotic place is undoubtedly the area where Tianjin New Port is located. Tianjin New Port is thirty miles away from the original Tianjin Port. Originally, it was because Tianjin Port was too busy. Some landowners and gentry here in Tianjin saw it again. The huge wealth brought by Tianjin Port led to the construction of Tianjin New Port.
If everything here in Tianjin Port is orderly and orderly under the management of Tianjin Port, then everything in Tianjin New Port is very chaotic.
Every dock here is flowing with blood, and the sea water is glowing red. The Shandong Gang and the Henan Gang, mainly dock porters, compete for the loading and unloading of goods in Tianjin New Port. They fight each other almost every three days for a dozen, and for five days a dozen. Big fight.
At the same time, in the neighborhoods near Tianjin Xingang, due to the lack of effective management and control, a large number of outsiders gathered, forming a huge slum area. Many gang organizations are active in the slum area.
The beggar gangs, which mainly focus on begging, are organized and documented begging gangs who come from the north and south of Zhili to beg for a living. They almost monopolize the entire begging industry in Tianjin.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out out of logging and trading timber, they are mainly a group of Shanxi people. Because they all hold axes when fighting and competing for territory, they are called the Ax Gang.
There is also the Qinglong Gang, which specializes in the gambling industry and monopolizes half of the gambling houses in Tianjin; the Hong Gang, which mainly focuses on the brothels and taverns, operates more than half of the brothels and taverns in Tianjin, and at the same time, they open the door to all the brothels. Protection fees are charged for sales.
Gangs are rampant. They not only rely on violent means to monopolize certain industry transactions, buy and sell by force, but even openly collect protection fees. They constantly compete for territory with each other, fight and kill, endangering the entire Tianjin.
Regarding this phenomenon, the people of Tianjin have suffered greatly, and those living in wealthy areas are better off. These places are Liu Jin's industries, and all places belong to Liu Jin. These people dare not go there at all. There's trouble here.
But for the wealthy areasIn this place, these gangs are becoming more and more rampant, and the Tianjin government office is unable to do anything about it, because the total number of government servants, policemen, etc. under the Tianjin government office is less than 200. This is after the expansion. The original number Just a few dozen people.
¡°Obviously, this traditional yamen management method can no longer adapt to the needs of emerging cities, leading to the current scene in Tianjin.
On the pier of Tianjin Xingang, people from the Shandong Gang and the Henan Gang gathered together again, each holding swords, guns, swords and halberds. Sticks, poles, etc., glared at each other.
"Shandong guy, what do you mean?"
"It was clearly agreed that the boats that come here will be one for you and one for each of us. Why do you want to break the rules again?"
The leader of the Henan Gang, One-Eyed Dragon King Kuang, looked at the people from the Shandong Gang and asked sternly.
"One-eyed dragon, what are the rules?"
"Did I, the emperor, issue an imperial edict, or did the imperial court issue a decree?"
The leader of the Shandong Gang, Hun Jianglong Li Qing, glanced at Wang Kuang and said without hesitation that he had wanted to monopolize the business of this wharf for a long time. However, this one-eyed dragon was indeed not easy to mess with, but he still continued to do so every once in a while. He had to cause trouble for several days, constantly looking for trouble, and slowly squeezed out all these Henan guys.
"So, there is no need to discuss this matter?"
The one-eyed dragon squinted one eye and tightened the machete in his hand.
"discuss?"
"Of course it can be discussed. There are two ports in Tianjin, Tianjin Port and Tianjin New Port. This Tianjin New Port was first moved by us Shandong people, so it belongs to us. You should go to Tianjin Port."
Li Qing smiled and said.
"Fuck your mother~"
"I really think we Henan people are easy to bully~"
"Kill me!"
When Wang Kuang heard this, he couldn't help but cursed. Did he dare to go to Tianjin Port to look for trouble?
??Obviously, he didn¡¯t dare. This was an estate owned by the current Minister of Civil Affairs, Liu Jin, and His Highness the Crown Prince¡¯s shares were included in it. He hadn¡¯t lived enough yet.
Following Wang Kuang's order, thousands of people behind him immediately rushed toward the Shandong Gang. Naturally, the Shandong Gang was not inferior. There were also thousands of people, and immediately He also went up to kill him.
Suddenly, the entire pier was filled with the shouts and wailings of these people. In a blink of an eye, the pier was stained red with blood. The ordinary people around had already hid far away, too scared to dare. Make a sound.
The struggle between the helpers was very bloody. When they were trying to kill each other, they didn't care at all. The whole dock was in chaos.
¡°Tap tap~ tap tap~¡±
While the two gangs were fighting incessantly, there was a sound of neat footsteps on the spacious concrete road in the distance. On a few main roads, Ming troops were seen wearing uniform uniforms, carrying muskets, Carrying bows and arrows on their backs and sabers on their waists, they quickly surrounded Tianjin Xingang Pier and the slums near the terminal with uniform and orderly steps.
The arrival of the army immediately attracted the attention of all the gangs in the area. Members of the Beggar Gang, Ax Gang, Red Gang and other gangs were immediately frightened and hurriedly hid.
As for the inseparable Shandong and Henan gangs who were killed on the pier, they quickly separated in fear, and then looked at the Ming army who raised their guns and surrounded them.
"Master Jun, Master Jun~"
¡°I¡¯m from Henan, and I¡¯m from the same hometown as Mr. Liu Ge, the cabinet minister. We also have people in the Henan Gang.¡±
The one-eyed dragon was frightened by the scene in front of him, and then he quickly wanted to go forward to please him.
"All gang members will be killed without mercy!"
The leading officer ignored his intention at all, looked at him coldly, as if looking at a dead person, and ordered indifferently.
¡°Bang!¡±
Following his order, intensive gunshots rang out on the pier, and lead pellets attacked the Shandong and Henan gangs on the pier.
The one-eyed dragon king Kuang at the front was beaten into a sieve, and he didn't close his eyes until he died. It's so good, why did the court suddenly take action against the strength of these gangs?
"Escape~"
Li Qingna, the Hunjiang Dragon from the Shandong Gang, completely lost his domineering attitude. Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but roar.
"However, he has already been on the list. How can he be allowed to escape easily? More than a dozen guns have been aimed at him. With the order, bullets fell on him one after another.
It was only when he died that he realized that he was actually just a person who came to Tianjin to make a living. He was old and young. He had farmed, moved goods, worked in factories, and worked as a clerk. Second, in the end, he slowly became the boss of the Shandong Gang, and finally died under this gun.
¡°Bang~bang~¡±
There was chaos on the pier. Under the intensive gunfire, in the blink of an eye, all the blood flowing on the pier flowed into the sea, turning the blue water red.
Soon, the dock became deathly quiet. The Shandong Gang and the Henan Gang, who were once arrogant and turbulent, were completely wiped out.
From the gang leader to the ordinary gang members, they were all killed under the thunderous blow of the court, with corpses strewn everywhere and rivers of blood flowing.
