Chapter 376 Entering into a new field

For a moment, Zhang Haotian was silent. After so many months of training, his subordinates had good combat power, and the relationship network was initially established. It was time to look for opportunities for development. What Yan Kaijing said was undoubtedly a way. Among the seven districts of S City, lh, ft, yt, and ls districts belong to the main urban district, while BA, lg and GM new districts belong to the suburbs. At present, the main urban district has been occupied by three major gangs. If he wants to seize it, his strength is far from enough. It is just a few second-rate in the suburbs.

Gangs, Workers and Peasants' Association have already surrendered, while the Ten Tigers and Hammers Gang were destroyed, and the Pliers Gang can be ignored. The only remaining are Yiweitang in Xinyi'an, Huazhongtang of Zhulian Club and Qinglong Zhuhai. Now Yiweitang and Huazhongtang are fighting for the past. The Hammer Gang is in a territorial area in District Ba and cannot get out of the way to deal with other things. If you take down the Qinglong and Zhuhai gangs and deal with Yiwei Huazhongtang, the suburbs of S City are basically determined. In City S, he can really gain a foothold and use these three districts as bases to compete with the major gangs.

After thinking about this, Zhang Haotian immediately said: "Okay, Mr. Yan, since you have such social responsibility, I, as a junior, cannot be behind you. I will try to do this, but I will ask you for more advice."

Seeing Zhang Haotian agreeing, Yan Kaijing was also very happy. He personally poured him a glass of wine, then held his own and clinked glasses with him, and then said: "Of course, there is no plan for this matter. Haotian, you have only been to S City for a few years. You may not know much about the Qinglong Gang and the Zhuhai Gang. I will tell you first."

Speaking of this, he continued: "Let's talk about the Qinglong Gang first. At that time, they had only 27 people in the gang, all of whom were self-employed in fishery and water industry. Seeing that the prospects of this business are getting better and better, but more and more people are coming to do it. Under such competition, the profits are too thin, so he thought of setting up an organization to shock other businessmen and achieve the goal of dominating the market. Their gang leader is An Dehai, and his back is covered with a curling Qinglong, so he is called Qinglong Gang. According to the news I have received, there are more than 1,200 gangs so far."

Seeing Zhang Haotian nodded, Yan Kaijing paused and said, "As for the establishment of the Zhuhai Gang, it is actually related to the Qinglong Gang. Because the economy of S City has developed too rapidly, it attracted a lot of foreigners to do business in S City. Some of them noticed the aquatic industry. However, since the aquatic market in S City was basically controlled by the Qinglong Gang at that time, these people also formed a gang to fight against the Qinglong Gang. Among them, Zhuhai people were the most people, and the leader He Chunquan was also from Zhuhai, so it was called the Zhuhai Gang. At that time, the Qinglong Gang had not grown strong yet, but there were only 300 people. However, the Zhuhai Gang was only more than 200 people in order to gain a foothold in S City. Although there were only 200 people, they fought very hard and quickly fought with the Qinglong Gang and controlled two aquatic markets. Due to the usual competition, fishermen and consumers were not affected much. Unexpectedly, they would come together because they were afraid of the Sanlian Gang and eventually monopolized the entire aquatic market."

Zhang Haotian has also heard some of the things about these two gangs, but he must know some more detailed information. Of course, Xiaowei can only complete this matter, and then said, "Old Yan, let's do it. I'll go back and discuss with my brothers how to get into this industry. If you have a plan, I will discuss it with you."

Yan Kaijing responded and said, "An Dehai and He Chunquan are both small vendors, they are not well-educated, selfish and short-sighted, so it will not be too difficult to deal with them. And remember, this time, the fishermen reported too many anonymously, and the government has made up their minds to rectify the aquatic market and crack down on the monopoly behavior of these two gangs. As long as you are good at using the two forces of black and white, you will get twice the result with half the effort. If you need a government place, you can tell me and I will contact you."

Zhang Haotian nodded again, indicating that he remembered it.

Next, the two talked about the situation in the aquatic products market. About an hour later, Zhang Haotian stood up and said goodbye and returned to GM New District.

A week later, Zhang Haotian took over the aquatic products company that was originally named "Jinding Trading Group Corporation" and changed its name to "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd.". At Yan Kaijing's suggestion, Yuan Hua, the head of "Jinding Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd.", was left behind. Yuan Hua, the former head of "Jinding Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd.", still served as the manager. This is a middle-aged man in his fifties. He was once the first batch of individual vendors in S City to make aquatic products. He is very familiar with the aquatic products market in S City and even the G province. He has dealt with the Qinglong Gang and Zhuhai Gang. With him, Zhang Haotian doesn't have to worry about the daily affairs of "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd.".

A few days later, "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd." was officially established. The address was in a small aquatic product wholesale market in the south of District Ba. It has one floor and one bottom, the business department below, and the office above. In this aquatic product market with a circular building, the general operators only have one storefront upstairs and downstairs. Only "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd." has three storefronts, and the location is excellent. You can see it as soon as you enter the market. It is the most powerful company here.

The operation of "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd." is related to the next development of the Tianlang Gang. Zhang Haotian attaches great importance to it and brings all five young incense masters, Wang Bin, Wu Xiaolong, Huang Guangsheng, Chen Qiang, and Ade, to come here, and to be familiar with District Ba and also to understand the aquatic industry with him.

District Ba, located in the west of S City, is located on the coast of the South China Sea, with an area of ​​more than 700 square kilometers and a coastline of 30 kilometers. It is a low-mountain and hilly coastal area with mountains and seas facing the sea, undulating hills. It is connected to S City Special Economic Zone in the south, Dongguan City in the north, LG District in the east, and is adjacent to Hong Kong New Territories and Yuen Long. Compared with the urban prosperity of the city center, there are large areas of green suburban scenery, including pastoral pastoral farms with fragrance of melons and fruits, as well as lotus pond ferrying, boating and fishing. It is really a wealthy and livable place. The population of the whole district is 1.6 million, but the population with local household registration is less than 300,000, while the population of foreigners reaches 1.3 million.

The market where "Tianhong Aquatic Products Development Co., Ltd." is called "Haihua Aquatic Product Wholesale Market". In the past, there were nearly 100 merchants who engaged in wholesale business, but in recent months, aquatic products were completely monopolized by Qinglong and Zhuhai. On the one hand, the purchase price of aquatic products in S City has been raised, while on the other hand, the price of foreign markets has been lowered. In order to attract old customers, these merchants had to operate with small profits. The strong funds can still support them, but those merchants who had not made money had not made any money.

I was unable to bear it anymore. Although the market promised to reduce the store rent, the merchants still withdrew one-third, and there were not many varieties left for wholesale. The entire market seemed deserted. One kilometer away, there was a "Sihai Aquatic Product Wholesale Market", known as one of the four major aquatic product wholesale markets in S City. It was an industry under the name of Qinglong Gang. In the past, they would leave a bite of rice for retail investors in other small wholesale markets to eat. Now they have completely monopolized without any scruples.

Led by Yuan Hua, Zhang Haotian and others spent ten days wandering around the ba area, and also visited some fishermen, basically understanding the current situation.

In the past, when fishermen who were fishing or shallow sea breeding had goods to be sold, they had to call the aquatic products companies under the name of Qinglong and Zhuhai, and asked them to see the price of goods first. However, due to conflicts between the two gangs, they could quietly sell part of the goods to the higher bidder or to some retail investors with high bids. Since the two gangs did not know the other party's shipment price, even if there were cheap aquatic products purchased and sold by the singular parties in the market, as long as the quantity was not large, the two gangs turned a blind eye. Therefore, whether it was fishermen or vendors, there was profit to make.

However, since the two gangs reached an agreement four months ago, the prices of the entire aquatic product market were immediately unified. If anyone sells cheap goods, they naturally know that they were purchased from fishermen privately. Then the merchants selling cheap goods can only face one fate, that is, losses. The two gangs do not go directly to the shop to cause trouble, but create accidents. Either the refrigerated truck that transports goods suddenly disappeared. When they are found, a truck of aquatic products is already disgusting. Or they will rush in and rob them during the transaction. Within four months, the system will be connected.

Five accidents were caused, causing the five disobedient merchants to suffer huge economic losses, and there was no evidence to accuse them. In the end, they found two gangs to apologize and settle the matter. Naturally, no one dared to have the courage to receive goods and sell them to the fishermen. However, they would use the same method on fishermen who sold goods privately, but the method was to poison them, and then reported to the fishery and industrial and commercial departments that the fishermen had sold were polluted, so that people from the government departments would go to seize them, so that fishermen would not dare to sell goods privately to retail investors.

On that afternoon, Yuan Hua did not take Zhang Haotian and others to investigate in Area Ba, but drove a van to Area YT, saying that there was another thing related to aquatic products, Zhang Haotian must understand.

YT District is the territory of the Sanlian Gang, which has a large aquatic products wholesale market. However, the people from the Sanlian Gang did not get involved. Zhang Haotian thought that Yuan Hua was going to take them to this aquatic products wholesale market. Unexpectedly, when he arrived in YT District, Yuan Hua did not go to the city, but drove a van to the west. Although Zhang Haotian was a little surprised, he knew that there must be a reason for him to do so, so he did not ask much.

Half an hour later, Yuan Hua's car had already arrived at the beach, and not far away was the famous YT Port.

Zhang Haotian is already very familiar with S City and knows that YT Port is jointly developed by Hutchison Whampoa Investment Company, a subsidiary of Hong Kong Li Ka-shing, and a large state-owned asset group in S City. The container throughput ranks among the top 8 in the world. However, there are very few fishermen in the nearby waters, and they can't help but say, "Manager Yuan, do you want to take us to YT Port to see how those seafood enter the customs?"

Yuan Hua smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, I did take you to see seafood in customs, but you don't need to go to yt port, you can see it here, but you have to wait for about an hour."

The sea was calm at this moment, and no freighter set sail or entered the port. When he saw Yuan Hua keeping a secret, Zhang Haotian didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he got off the car with Wang Bin and others, smoking and chatting, waiting to see what changes will happen in an hour.

Huang Guangsheng had not arrived at this yt port yet. When he saw a dark shadow appearing from the distance opposite, it was a small island. He said, "Manager Yuan, what is that place?"

Yuan Hua immediately said: "It is Ji'ao Island, which belongs to the Hong Kong island. It is located in the southwest waters of Dapeng Bay and east of Shatou Kok. The island area is only more than 2 square kilometers. Currently, about 200 households live."

Chen Qiang said on the side: "Oh, so if you can go to Hong Kong by swimming here?"

Yuan Hua nodded and said, "That's right. People with slightly better water properties can swim here. In the 1950s and 1960s, many people in China smuggled into Hong Kong from here and finally took root. However, this situation is rare now. As long as people with a little help, they can go to Hong Kong from other places, and there is no need to take the risk of swimming."

Gradually, it was dusk, and the setting sun was falling into the sea little by little, and the waves were also red, flashing, like red fish trying to fly into the air, and the harbor was becoming quieter and quieter.

At this moment, something suddenly happened on the sea surface. I saw dozens of small black dots appearing on the fiery red sea surface, and they were moving quickly. After a while, I could see clearly that there were speedboats one by one. After a rough count, there should be about thirty or forty.

At the same time, thirty or forty speedboats sailed out of the sea here, heading towards the speedboats coming from Ji'ao Island.

The speedboats on both sides soon met on the sea surface and stopped. Then they saw someone coming from Ji'ao Island quickly moving boxes of cargo to and from speedboats. In less than ten minutes, all the cargo had been transferred, and the speedboats on both sides returned to their own flights.

Seeing this situation, Wu Xiaolong was the first to shout and said, "Fuck, I'm smuggling seafood, I'm too brave."

Yuan Hua smiled and said, "Xiaolong, this is so strange that you are rare. Let me tell you, the Golden Triangle of Shatoujiao, Kyrgyz Island and Shenzhen YT District are known as the Golden Triangle of smuggling seafood. Smugglers first transport foreign imported lobsters, abalones, geoducks and other precious seafood from Shatoujiao to Kyrgyz, and then use Kyrgyz as a springboard to smuggle to yt district. Jio and YT District are close to each other, and it is very difficult for the police to intercept it in time, and even if they are caught, these smugglers

The official import order of Hong Kong was intercepted on the shared sea surface, so it was transported to Kyrgyzstan and Australia for storage, and evaded criminal responsibility. Therefore, both the mainland and the Hong Kong water police were very troubled by this. Later, they became accustomed to it. They just occasionally went out to deal with their bosses, and they basically ignored it. Moreover, most of the water police on both sides had to benefit from it. They would also inform the smugglers before they were dispatched to prepare in advance and stop delivering the goods."

Chen Qiang couldn't help but say, "How much cheaper can the seafood shipped from the opposite side?"

Yuan Hua said: "These seafood is bought from fishermen in Vietnam and the Philippines. Since there is no tariff, the price is very cheap when sold. Take a pound of lobster as an example. Smuggled seafood is nearly 80 yuan cheaper than the legitimate imported goods, which is lower than the price sold by local fishermen. Therefore, they worked hard to get good goods on a boat, but they couldn't sell them for a good price. It's really pitiful."

Zhang Haotian stared at the speedboat that had returned to the coastline. He knew very clearly how difficult it was to catch expensive and rare seafood in the coastal areas of China. The hard work and hard work of fishermen was definitely more than several times that of fishermen abroad. It was indeed extremely unfair to face the storm that was swept by the sea, which was enough to destroy ships and kill people. In the end, they could only make a living and earn money in the pockets of smugglers.

He said at the moment: "Manager Yuan, are these smugglers from the Qinglong Gang or the Zhuhai Gang."

Yuan Hua said: "In the past, there were many people who smuggled, including some bold vendors who dared to do so. However, after the establishment of the Qinglong Gang and the Zhuhai Gang, other vendors had to withdraw. The two gangs of this land were used by them. They had to receive goods every day. This batch of goods was from the Zhuhai Gang. At night, there was another batch of Qinglong Gang, which could be delivered to various wholesale markets and seafood restaurants before the early morning.

After saying this, he said, "Mr. Zhang, I have told you all the things I know in the past ten days. From the moment, our company has only two ways to continue to operate. One is to wait until the government eliminates the Qinglong Gang and the Zhuhai Gang, and the other is to contact the leaders of these two gangs and ask them to supply us some goods to see if it can be cheaper than ordinary retail investors."

Zhang Haotian did not answer immediately, but silently finished smoking a cigarette, and bounced the cigarette butts in the sea breeze, then waved his hand and said, "Get in the car, go back and have supper first."

He drove the car into the city and found a restaurant to eat. Zhang Haotian asked Yuan Hua to leave first, but drove the van to "Tianhong Villa". He called Huang Biao and others to inform the villa's conference room for a meeting immediately.

Two hours later, all the leaders of the Tianlang Gang went to the conference room on the second floor of the villa office building. After everyone sat down, Zhang Haotian did not talk much, so he briefly explained the current situation of the water industry in S City and his understanding of the Qinglong and Zhuhai Gangs.

After he stopped talking, Huang Biao was the first to say: "Haotian, do you want to attack the Qinglong Gang and Zhuhai Gang?"

Zhang Haotian nodded and said, "Now the Sanlian Gang has transferred all the elites of S City to G City, and is preparing to make a last fight against Pang Tongxun. The Huazhongtang of the Bamboo Gang and the Yiwei Tang of the Xinyi'an are also frequently fighting. This is the best opportunity for our development. We must eat the Qinglong Gang and the Zhuhai Gang, and then we will use our swords to deal with Huazhongtang and Yiwei Tang, connecting the three lands of GM New District, Ba District and LG District. Then in S City, we have a real place. Liu Bei grew stronger back then after owning Jingzhou. These three lands will be our Jingzhou and the development base of the Tianlang Gang in the future."

Zhang Haotian's words immediately made everyone present excited. Wang Bin immediately said: "Okay, gang leader, I'll wait for you to say something. Whenever I take action, I will definitely rush to the front."

Zhang Haotian's eyes turned to Xiaowei and said, "Master Ding, tell everyone about the situation of the Qinglong Gang and Zhuhai Gang you know."

Xiaowei has been collecting information about the two gangs during this period. When Zhang Haotian asked, she nodded quickly and introduced it. It was basically the same as Yan Kaijing told Zhang Haotian, but the data should be more accurate, that is, the Qinglong Gang has about 1,200 people, and the Zhuhai Gang currently has more people, with more than 1,800 people. However, the two gangs have not many real elite forces, and the total is only equal to the Hammer Gang that was destroyed by Zhang Haotian.

When Xiaowei finished telling the situation of the two gangs, Zhao Jinfeng said: "Gangmaster, we now have 500 silver wolfs and 3,000 copper wolfs and 3,000 iron wolfs. The worst ones have been trained for a week and have absolutely not low combat power. We can attack both gangs at the same time, defeat them in one fell swoop, and replace their position in the aquatic product market. However, it can reduce profits and leave a way for fishermen and merchants."

In the most basic structure of the Tianlang Gang, the small leader is called Jinlang, the trained elite members are called Silverlang, and the members who have made certain contributions are called Copperlang. The ordinary member who has no contributions in the first place is Iron Lang. In the six months after the establishment of the Tianlang Gang, the outside affairs were mainly hosted by Gu Shutong and Luo Yi. Huang Biao, Zhao Jinfeng, Jiang Yang and Luo Yi all trained the gang members in "Tianhong Villa". With the joint efforts of the four, it can be said that the members of the Tianlang Gang are not comparable to ordinary members. Whether in terms of quantity or quality, their strength is different than when defeating the Hammer Gang. Of course, there is no problem to pay two not-so-strong gangs.

Therefore, Zhao Jinfeng's words were agreed by everyone, and he was fully confident that he could eat the Qinglong Gang and the Zhuhai Gang.
Chapter completed!
