Lin Dong's words were like a large stone suddenly thrown into a pond on a cold winter morning.

With a "thump".

Water splashed everywhere, startling everyone present.

Hey kid, what exactly do you mean by asking that? Didn't you see that the biggest underground force in the North District is here?

As we all know, the top three in the North Division are:

Wanqingshan's Wanqi Trading and Gaoqijiang's Gaoxin Trading controlled the local electrical appliance smuggling and sales channels, while Gaoqijiang monopolized the local audio-visual products market and prostitution business.

The two sides each occupy one side, and their strengths are evenly matched.

Wang Hu's North District Meat Union Gang is the strongest and has the deepest foundation. Two years ago, it had been firmly ahead of the Wan and Gao families, but he had not been in a hurry to dominate.

Lin Dong's seemingly unintentional remark tore down the pretense of civility in front of everyone, bringing this sensitive topic to the forefront.

This Lin Dong, so young, how come he's so cunning?

"What do you mean? Are you trying to sow discord between us?"

Gao Qijiang quickly realized something was wrong and immediately scolded him.

Lin Dong ignored him and calmly smoked, activating his "Black Gold Eye" once again through the white smoke:

[Gao Qijiang, male, 49 years old, actual controller of Gaoxin Trading Company, involved in 95 cases including CD smuggling, audio-visual product counterfeiting, prostitution, and assault, with a illicit net worth of 92.73 million yuan.]

Sure enough, it was another big fish.

Lin Dong was secretly thrilled. His gaze inadvertently swept over the four male and female bosses present, and he became happier with each look.

Tsk tsk tsk, if I could convert all the black money behind these four big fish, wouldn't I immediately become the richest man in the North District?

Ahem, no rush, no rush, let's deal with the current predicament first.

"I think Lin Dong's statement is correct."

Wang Hu, who had been silent all along, finally spoke, saying slowly:

“There needs to be someone in charge in the North District after midnight, otherwise things will get chaotic.”

"Boss Wang, you actually believe this kid's nonsense?"

Gao Qijiang, his face ashen, pointed at Lin Dong and shouted.

"I, Wang Hu, only trust my own judgment, and it has nothing to do with what others say."

Wang Hu, unusually, stopped smiling and said in a deep voice:

"This place belongs to the Queen. Anyone who makes a fuss here is disrespecting me, Wang Hu."

Besides, it's past midnight now. I'm in charge in the North District. Who dares to disagree?

Upon hearing this, none of the more than 200 people in the bar dared to utter a sound.

At this moment, Lin Dong truly witnessed the overwhelming power of the smiling tiger; his usual smiling face was perhaps just a facade.

"Haha, Mr. Wang, I, Wan Qingshan, am the first to admire your character. I'll toast you with this glass."

Wan Qingshan, who had a rough appearance but was extremely shrewd in dealing with people, took the lead in expressing his willingness to comply. He and Wang Hu toasted each other with a glass of wine, which was considered as confirming that he was the leader of the underworld in the North District.

"Mr. Gao, what about you?"

Wang Hu narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Gao Qijiang, whose face was ashen, and said casually:

"If you're not satisfied, let's have a fight. You have 100 men, and I'll only send two."

As soon as Wang Hu finished speaking, two figures silently emerged from the shadows behind the bar.

A burly man, easily 1.9 meters tall, with a face full of scars, was wearing only a thin gray linen short-sleeved shirt in the dead of winter.

He strode confidently to the group of gangsters in black leather jackets, drew a sharp butcher knife from his waist, and hummed:

"My name is Tu Zhu, I'm a pig butcher, who dares to challenge me? Come at me all at once."

Behind him, a strong man, about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, was following silently. He was not tall, but his whole body exuded an extremely cold aura.

He had no weapon in his hand, but those around him all felt a strange sensation.

"This person is more dangerous than Tu Zhu, who wields a butcher's knife!"

This man is like a venomous snake, lurking in the shadows, ready to strike you deadly at any moment.

Lin Dong couldn't help but take another look at this person, secretly becoming more vigilant; this was a true master.

"His name is Tu Ren, Tu Zhu's older brother. Mr. Gao, you should have heard of the two brothers, right? Do you think the 100 people you brought can last for 15 minutes? Heh."

Wang Hu reverted to his true, smiling face, and said with a forced smile:

"Of course, your people may also use weapons, but they will be responsible for any casualties."

Gao Qijiang's face grew increasingly pale, but faced with the domineering presence of the King of the North District, he dared not easily break off relations.

"No need, humph, I admit defeat tonight! With those two butcher brothers around, no matter how many of us there are, it's all for naught."

A full half minute passed before Gao Qijiang spoke in a gloomy tone. He took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the anger that had been building up in his heart.

He gave Lin Dong a deep look, then waved his hand and said:

"Let's go."

Gao Qijiang led a hundred men in black, carrying eight injured people, and they all left the bar in a panic.

The crowded space in the west corner of the bar suddenly felt much more spacious, and the tense atmosphere from before also relaxed.

...

"Everyone, am I late? Is the show over already?"

Outside the bar, a loud voice rang out, and a dozen or so men and women in plainclothes rushed in.

The one leading the group was Liu Yufeng.

At the door, Liu Yufeng encountered Gao Qijiang, who was retreating. He realized that the show tonight was unlikely to continue.

However, it's also good that trouble is brewing in the northern district just as I'm about to go to Guangxi Province to handle a case; it wouldn't be good for anyone.

"What's going on tonight? How did they manage to gather all three of our big bosses from the North District together?"
