Chapter 145, Triad Imagination

Time, that night, location, in a high-end hotel on the Bund.

This is where the whole family and girls live after they come to Shanghai. Although the common five-star hotel in later generations has disappeared, this building is now one of the best hotels in the city.

“The Underground World is indeed a charming place, but it’s not easy to get in.”

In the living room of the suite, Alice said to the girls: "And, this is not just an ordinary regional gangster. The triad is too powerful. If you can take over a part of it, even if it is just a part, it will bring us endless benefits."

No one knows more about this than Ashley. As an authentic Italian, and at least a member of the Ferrero family, she knows even better about domestic mafia than any ordinary Italian girl, but other gangs around the world. With such a friend, she is simply Alice's best adviser and the best teacher of the other two girls.

"The Triad Association is a famous anti-Qing secret organization in history, which began around 1700 AD"

"During the reign of Emperor Kangxi and Yongzheng."

"Okay, probably at that time, now, the actual triads no longer exist, but since many Chinese gangs can be traced back to the triads of the Qing Dynasty, we usually use it to refer to Chinese gangs."

Xixi suddenly interrupted: "Me, us?"

Ashley's eyes widened: "What's wrong? My grandma's family controls several Italian MPs, and of course she also deals with the mafia. If we don't talk about it, would we still talk about them?"

Xixi waved her hand and looked speechless: "Okay, you can continue."

"Ahem, the official establishment of the Triad was around 1830, and its origin was in southern China."

"Tongyang and Guangxi."

"Alice, are you talking or I talking?"

"Please continue"

"The reason for the initial activity was that the Opium War and other events were stimulated, and the purpose was of course very obvious. In fact, there is also a saying that it is a remnant of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In short, in 1845, due to its excessive momentum, Britain even asked the Qing government to order the blockade of the activities of the Triad."

"By the beginning of this century, by the end of World War II, the Triad has evolved into a general term for traditional secret associations in Hong Kong. For nearly half a century, the Triad's gang behaviors include charging protection fees, drug trafficking, money laundering, illegal gambling, and commercial industries, which are so-called pornography, gambling and drug-related industries. Some members will also involve crimes such as theft, fraud, kidnapping and intimidation. As for the number of people, it is currently close to 200,000."

"However, this is just a development within the mainland. What really flourishes in the Triad Association is the overseas part. After all, looking at the entire 19th century, many Chinese people went overseas to work as laborers, and many of them settled in Southeast Asia. Alice, you should have the most experience of this?"

Alice nodded calmly: "Yes, this is how my grandparents came to the United States. It was before the beginning of World War II. Looking back now, it was a good time for them to come."

"Well, so in other words, this is also considered a sense of national identity and group behavior. With Chinese people all over the world as the main body, the entire triad branch is open all over the world. Not to mention the Malaysian private association party, there will definitely be triad members in Chinatowns in major cities in the United States."

These words kept grinning: "In other words, we may pass by criminals anytime, anywhere?"

Alice smiled softly: "Every industry has its own characteristics. For people who are not in a certain field, it is of course difficult to distinguish the situation in the industry at a glance."

Of course, Alice knew Sissi's feelings very well.

After all, bad people don’t write the word bad people on their faces.

But the police always have a way to find bad guys, right?

So, I can tell whether I understand or not.

There is an old saying: A van on the street carries three or two people, and always looks out the window if you have nothing to do. Such a combination is either plainclothes surveillance or criminals are following.

It depends on whether the people passing by can tell the difference.

Any ordinary person, even if he just hears the old saying, will immediately discover that there are so many potential bad people around his life.

It's like a typical street pickpocket feature: walking close to the wall, avoiding the camera, maybe wearing a hat or sunglasses, so as not to be remembered, looking nothing is wrong, always holding a magazine or newspaper in your hand, to block your eyes, walk without rushing, like walking, of course, to find a target to find a target

I don’t know, I just don’t know, and I live a normal life. But after I understand, I immediately find that there are so many people on the street who may be pickpockets. No wonder the police rioters can send so many people in every day.

To look at it more vividly, for example, for those who never go to nightclubs in their entire lives, isn’t drugs just a myth?

But for those who go to nightclubs to have fun singing every night, sucking things and prostitution girls is really wandering on the edge of crime every day. When people stand in the karaoke bar, they don’t have to look for themselves, and the “bad guys” come to their door by themselves.

After briefly explaining the situation of the triad, Ashley concluded: "So Alice, do you really want to get involved in this?"

When asked about this, she usually laughed and said, and her expression was rarely very serious.

Alice didn't speak out immediately, but Sissi interrupted: "If you can really build a super big gang, it must be very cool!"

Sissi obviously agreed to express her opinion, but Alice still didn't say anything, but looked at Wuya.

"The reason why many underground industries violate the law is to disrupt social security is one aspect, but huge profits are the most fundamental reason."

Wuya said calmly: "After all, if there is no huge profit, no one will engage in it at all. For example, the most common one is of course a basic need, but if it is not extremely low cost and extremely high profits, even if it is a basic need, there will not be so many people who would rather violate the law than engage in it, right?"

Alice snorted: "Yes, yes, one, put cold water and hot water in men's ingestion. What is the cost? For example, those wandering people just lick their whole body with their tongues. They can treat it as a special high-price fee. Why do you look at me like this?"

Facing the strange gaze of three girls in the room, Alice suddenly turned red and shouted, "Of course I'm not doing that! Why do you all look at me like that! Oh, damn it, don't I just have a big breast?? Look at it, look at it, and then dig out your eyes again!?"

At the end of the shout, Wuya smirked with a smirk, Sissi looked contemptuous, Ashley patted Alice on the shoulder and said, "Okay, girl, you're a hooligan, but sister likes it."

Well, this episode has to come to an end, because Alice's yells and the doors are open.

A little red head came over, but it was Hannah: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about with cold water and hot water?"

"Go and go, children don't learn well at every family, what are they doing for eavesdropping on their sisters? Go and go"

"Vivi, I'm only two years younger than you"

"Every year before the age of thirty is crucial, especially for girls. Come on, Hannah, go and go, I'll close the door."

"Sister hates it"

With a slam, the door closed.

Of course, this topic has to come to an end. Even if the Sanhehui Association is at the same level as the Yamaguchi Group, and even has it, it is an industry involved in gangs after all, and no one can easily get involved. Alice asked herself, with her current thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, unless she uses hypnosis to match her, who can follow her in the world?

However, it is absolutely impossible to make her do nothing. Since the topic has been thrown in front of her, if she has to take action for a long time, she will have to be anxious.

At 9:00 pm, the girls who were going to the company tomorrow would immediately take a shower and go to bed, especially Ashley. In the past two or three months, the Italian branch has sent a lot of information to the Shanghai branch, all of which are about new trends in the fashion industry, which are all her duties.

On Simmons' big bed, Sissi was already asleep beside her, but Alice's eyes were wide open.

Don't get me wrong, I didn't use a toothpick to hold it.

"The prerequisite for gangs is to have force. Even Peter Parker, who was bitten by a spider, can meet the Green Devil. If I form an armed group, I will naturally deal with the black forces. Then the question now is, how should I set up an armed group?"

Although it has been thrown behind the head for many years, the souls of men in previous lives still had a little impact on Alice.

Establishing a private armed legion is a great dream that any boy has!

So the question is, what should I do?

Alice feels she needs to think about it carefully. To be continued.
