Saying that, the guy grabbed the weapon in his hand and was about to rush out.
"Stop, why are you always so impulsive." Lin Chuan was calm and unhurried.
"Brother Chuan." Lu Dapao widened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I told you to squat down, don't fucking move." Zhou Kai glared at him and said, "How did we swear initially? Everything must follow Chuan's orders, did you forget, kid?"
"Hehe..." Lu Dapao scratched his head and said, "I was wrong, I..."
At this mont, the sound of a car, the engine stopping, the door opening, and rustling footsteps ca from outside.
In the factory, everyone snuffed out their cigarette butts, watching the door nervously. It was the first ti for these people to participate in such negotiation activities. Or rather, it was the first ti to negotiate with a local thug like Long Wu. It was inevitable to feel nervous and fearful. However, seeing Lin Chuan so calm, they beca calm as well.
In the factory, the lights were bright, as Zhou Kai and his guys had directly wired from the streetlights at the door, using soone else's electricity anyway. They pulled an electric wire and lit a hundred-watt bulb which brightly lit up the factory.
At this ti, dozens of people outside holding weapons walked in.
Long Wu, wearing a white coat, was constantly pinching a string of beads in his hand. Under the bright lights, his bald head looked particularly shiny. With a stern face, Long Wu entered the factory surrounded by his people. At this mont, Zhou Kai stood up holding two axes, and Lu Dapao, holding a machete, looked at the other side disdainfully. Other underlings in the factory also gathered around. The two sides ford a standoff.
"Lin Chuan, what do you an by this?" Long Wu frowned, pinching his nose, and said, "Is this how you treat your guests?"
"Poor place, the brothers haven't seen much of the world, sorry about that." Lin Chuan still lay in the rocking chair, speaking softly, and said, "Zhou Kai, get a chair for Brother Long."
"Okay." Zhou Kai nodded.
He turned around and picked up a stool from beneath the old machinery. This wooden stool had been around for a while, originally having four legs, but now only three remained, stable when placed but probably wobbly if soone sat on it with weight. Most importantly, the broken stool was covered with a thick layer of dust.
Cough cough...
Long Wu couldn't help coughing twice, Lin Chuan really must be tired of living, to greet him with such a broken stool?
"Fuck, what do you an by this!" Chick, holding a cleaver, stepped forward.
"Already told you it's a poor place, don't even have a decent chair." Lin Chuan sat in the rocking chair, eyes closed, seemingly not putting Long Wu in his eyes at all. Zhou Kai returned to stand by Lin Chuan's left side, and Lu Dapao on his right, wielding the machete, looking fierce as if he would leap forward at Lin Chuan's command.
Long Wu didn't make a fuss but walked over slowly and sat down steadily on the three-legged stool.
"Lin Chuan, today you beat up my n, and injured my n, how will you settle this account?" Long Wu looked at Lin Chuan coldly and said, "Since you've bought Feixiang Transport Company and want a share of the market, you must follow the rules of this line."
"What rules?" Lin Chuan asked curiously.
"At least you should have said hello to , right?" Long Wu's body shook, saying, "You Lin Chuan might not give face, but you should at least give so face to Taibao, right? One cannot be so overbearing."
Lin Chuan was slightly stunned. This was the second ti he'd heard of the Thirteen Grand Protectors, although he didn't know what Feng Taibao was all about, the fact that even a thug like Long Wu succumbed to his power indicated that this person must be extraordinary.
"Feng Taibao?" Lin Chuan frowned.
"You also know the na of Taibao?" Long Wu was taken aback.
"Hmph, who doesn't know?" Lin Chuan scoffed with disdain: "I just haven't had the ti, or else, I would have t him long ago."
Long Wu scoffed with disdain: "Lin Chuan, one should not be too arrogant, Taibao is not soone you can afford to offend."
"Long Wu, did you co here today to suppress or to threaten ?" Lin Chuan still lay in the chair, eyes closed. He did not seem to fear Long Wu, speaking unhurriedly: "If you ca here to threaten , then you can leave now."
"You!" Long Wu was furious, saying, "Lin Chuan, don't be too arrogant."
"Arrogant?" Lin Chuan suddenly stood up from the chair, that speed, truly swift.
Whoosh...
Lin Chuan was like a gust of wind, instantly grabbing Long Wu by the neck. Long Wu's underlings were all shocked, Chick in surprise angrily said: "Fuck, dare to touch my boss."
Bang...
Lin Chuan with a sweeping kick imdiately sent him flying. Then, grabbing Long Wu, he said: "If you dare to trouble my people in the transport market again, I will make sure you die miserably. Don't ntion Feng Taibao, even if Grand Protector Zhang, Li Taibao cos, I will still defeat you."
Having said that, with a flick of his hand, Lin Chuan imdiately sent Long Wu flying, crashing into the wall behind him.
Pfft...
The tea he drank this afternoon he fucking vomited out.
Long Wu squatted on the ground, a look of pain on his face. He touched the wall and stood up, saying: "Lin Chuan... you... you wait for , if I can't deal with you, soone else will."
Long Wu still harbored so fear towards Lin Chuan in his heart; having been beaten into a pig's head by Lin Chuan multiple tis, even a pig would have developed a conditioned reflex by now. Therefore, Long Wu didn't bring so many people today just to intimidate Lin Chuan, but rather to bolster his own courage; unexpectedly, he still ended up being beaten up by Lin Chuan.
Long Wu clenched his teeth, preparing to flee.
"Stop there." Suddenly, Lin Chuan reprimanded.
"What... what do you want to do!" Long Wu said with a face full of panic, clutching the string of precious jade necklace in his hand, he hastily stuffed it into his pocket, afraid that it would get destroyed while Lin Chuan was beating him, leaving him nowhere to cry.
"Tell Feng Taibao that we don't want to cause trouble, and hope he can give us a way out, because mutual destruction benefits no one," Lin Chuan said with his hands behind his back.
"Got... got it," Long Wu hurriedly nodded.
"Hmph." Lin Chuan gave a cold laugh and said, "You better rember, or else, you'll regret it. Scram!"
Whoosh...
Long Wu and a bunch of people dashed away disheartenedly.
Zhou Kai and Lu Dapao were dumbfounded as they watched; Lin Chuan was too incredible, schooling Long Wu within monts. That speed, those moves, that agility, seemingly a true master. Zhou Kai laughed, "Brother Chuan, you are really formidable, taking down Long Wu in just a few moves."
"This guy deserves a lesson," Lin Chuan sneered: "Let's take so people to the transport market tomorrow."
"Really?" Zhou Kai was imdiately overjoyed upon hearing this.
Lu Dapao said excitedly, "Damn, that transport market can make us hundreds of thousands a year by doing nothing. Just the managent fee alone can make our hands ache from collecting it."
Lin Chuan smiled and said, "If the transport market really becos ours, instead of collecting managent fees, we'll adopt a commission-based model. The more one earns, the more they pay. The less one earns, the less they pay."
"Great," Zhou Kai was overjoyed. This thod was really great; it would not offend anyone. If there's money, we all earn together; if not, we all lose together.
"Brother Chuan, you're a damn genius," Lu Dapao laughed heartily.
In the factory, everyone cheered.
.........
The next day, Zhou Kai drove to the transport market with his n. Long Wu's people were so scared they stepped back.
"Go back and tell Long Wu, from today onwards, this transport market is ours," Zhou Kai glared at them.
Upon hearing this, a guy cursed, "Shit, you guys are too arrogant."
"Hmph." Zhou Kai sneered: "Survival of the fittest. You have been eliminated. Pack up your things and scram."
"Wait and see," the guy angrily retorted, and he and his n fled dejectedly.
Zhou Kai and others walked around the transport market, which housed dozens of transport companies, large and small. Such transport markets existed in several places in Jiangbei City. However, they were occupied by different people. This transport market on Huai Mountain South Road was occupied by Long Wu. Long Wu could rake in millions annually from this transport market, with managent fees alone amounting to hundreds of thousands, and his transport company earning quite a tidy sum each year. Moreover, Long Wu also monopolized most of the sand business in the eastern city area. It was hard not to make money.
After occupying the property of the transport market, Zhou Kai and his group imdiately convened all the owners for an ergency eting.
This month was the end of the year, and next month marked the start of a new year, so, every transport company had to pay managent fees again. However, faced with the new managent, these owners seed sowhat unaccepting.
"Who are you guys? What right do you have to manage the property here?"
"Exactly, how many people do you have? Can you hold down the fort?"
"Long Wu is not soone you can handle."
A bunch of owners clamored, nearly intimidating Zhou Kai and his group. After all, they were just a bunch of kids, lacking enough experience in dealing with society. So, seeing this situation, the group froze, and Lu Dapao quietly looked at Zhou Kai, asking, "Kai, what should we do?"
"Quick, call Brother Chuan, let him co and save the day," Zhou Kai hurriedly said.
"Yes, yes!" Lu Dapao quickly nodded.
Lin Chuan was at the City Committee arguing with Luo Guoqing and others, when suddenly he received a call from Zhou Kai and his group. He imdiately left the City Committee and headed straight to the transport market on Huai Mountain South Road. As he approached Shangpin Garden, he just saw Long Wu preparing to leave.
Squeak...
Lin Chuan's jeep suddenly stopped right in front of Long Wu. Long Wu was so frightened he backed up several steps, eventually sitting down with a thud.
"Damn it," Long Wu cursed angrily, "Which son of a bitch is this?"
Long Wu had been in the gang for many years and had offended quite a few people. This scene made him anxious, thinking soone was attempting to assassinate him. He looked up and saw Lin Chuan's innocuous smiling face. Long Wu was stunned.
