She deftly lit a cigarette with one hand, rolled down the car window, and exhaled a smoke ring.
“I know, so sending your few dozen men will only increase casualties,” Ye Xingchen said. “You need to conserve your strength to deal with what comes next.”
"What happens next?" Gu Manyun looked at Ye Xingchen in surprise.
"Destroy the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce, unify Hedong and Hexi, and the world of Jinling will be yours from now on." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
"Are you just making empty promises to me?" Gu Manyun was completely stunned.
She knew how deep the waters ran in Jinling, even though she was one of the three major underground forces in Jinling and occupied the Hexi area.
However, the resources in Hexi are not plentiful. Among the three major powers, the one in Hedong has more territory and stronger strength.
With the support of the Liang family, Huang San was considered the smallest of the two chambers of commerce, while the other two chambers of commerce had long coveted her and could swallow her up at any time.
Over the years, she had been exhausted from dealing with things, and it was already difficult to survive in the cracks. But Ye Xingchen told her that Jinling would be her world in the future.
"I only make empty promises if I want something from you. What do I want from you now?" Ye Xingchen smiled slightly: "Your body?"
"Then what do you mean by what you said?" Gu Manyun asked Ye Xingchen coquettishly.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to help you out," Ye Xingchen said.
"Is it really that simple?" Gu Manyun didn't believe it; to be precise, she didn't trust men.
She had met countless men over the years and was no longer the innocent and naive little girl she once was. She didn't believe that Ye Xingchen would really help her for free.
"Our interests are mutual. I'll help you establish yourself in Jinling, so I'll have enough power to target the Liang family." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly. Did it really have to be so clear?
"I understand. What grudge do you have against the Liang family?" Gu Manyun was relieved.
If Ye Xingchen said he helped her for free, she definitely wouldn't believe it; she didn't believe there were such idle people in the world.
But once Ye Xingchen revealed his purpose, Gu Manyun felt relieved. Among adults, they only trust each other's interests.
"I don't have any grudges, but there are some things that must be done through the Liang family," Ye Xingchen said with a slight smile.
He came to Jinling with only two purposes: to deal with the Liang family and then use the Liang family to gain access to the Dawuxiang Temple.
After all, this little-known Wuxiang Temple is not one that can be entered easily.
To deal with them, you must first deal with their partners.
Jiangnan Club.
This is an extremely luxurious and extravagant den of iniquity.
It is also the largest club under the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce, and can be said to be the flagship club of Shengshi Chamber of Commerce.
Huang San wasn't exactly a legitimate businessman; his business association was involved in all sorts of borderline and illegal activities.
All the money earned each day would be transported to the Jiangnan Club for settlement, and then distributed according to a set ratio.
The largest share was handed over to the Liang family, while the remaining leaders divided the spoils among themselves.
Huang Shih-hao was indeed here. This guy indulged in debauchery every day. Despite the stares of those who were overindulging in lust, he got up from a naked girl, then sat down to the side and put on his clothes.
Two bodyguards stepped forward and dragged the girl away. Because she had taken an overdose of hallucinogens, she was still dancing and gesturing as she was being dragged away.
Huang Shih-hao raised a glass of wine on the table with great enjoyment and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Young Master Huang, how was today's?" A lewd-looking man walked into the room with a fawning smile.
"Not bad, art school students? We should get more of these kinds of people in the future." Huang Shih-hao laughed heartily.
“No problem, but… a music student is now pregnant and is threatening to jump off a building. What do you think…” the lewd man said as he stepped forward with a troubled expression.
"Give her 200,000 yuan and let her take the child." Huang Shih-hao waved his hand dismissively.
“But this girl has a stubborn personality; she doesn’t believe anything and insists on committing suicide.” The lewd man said with some difficulty, “If this gets out, it will have a bad impact.”
"Then let her die. Five hundred thousand, have someone do a clean job." Huang Shih-hao sneered, "The company is just about to build a bridge that needs a human sacrifice. Pour it into a cement pillar and shut her up forever."
"This..." The lewd man hesitated. This was the third incident this month. Although this guy was in charge of the Jiangnan Club and was a member of the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce, he still felt a little guilty about playing with people's lives so carelessly.
"What, do you have a problem, Wang Jun?" Huang Shihao glanced at Wang Jun coldly.
"No, no, Mr. Huang, please don't misunderstand. I just feel things haven't come to this point yet." Wang Jun was taken aback, but quickly put on a smile and said, "I'll take care of it. I guarantee I'll handle it perfectly."
"Then go ahead." Huang Shihao waved his hand, shooing Wang Jun away like he was shooing away a fly.
Wang Jun had no choice but to leave. Huang San and his son Huang Shihao were both more insidious than the other.
However, Huang Shih-hao is different from his father in that he is simply vicious, but he does not have his father's cunning, which is quite awkward.
Just as Wang Jun was about to leave, a subordinate rushed over: "President Wang."
"What is it?" Wang Jun frowned as he saw his subordinate's somewhat agitated expression.
"Two guests, a man and a woman, just came into our private room," the subordinate replied.
"What kind of guests?" Wang Jun couldn't help but glance at his subordinate.
He knew his subordinates well; if the other party hadn't been of special status, they certainly wouldn't have reported such a trivial matter.
"I don't know the man, but the woman is Gu Manyun from the Fengwu Chamber of Commerce," the subordinate replied.
“Gu Manyun?” Wang Jun frowned.
He knew what had happened to Huang Shih-hao.
He also knew that the younger sister of the girl who died the night before last had been taken away by Gu Manyun.
However, this matter was not his responsibility; Zhang Hu was responsible for handling the aftermath.
At that time, he was also glad that the incident did not happen in his own venue that night, otherwise he would have had to face Gu Manyun, that madwoman.
However, to his surprise, Gu Manyun actually appeared at the Jiangnan Club, and she even brought a man with her, which was unusual.
"Bring the best wine, and make sure this woman doesn't cause any trouble. I'm coming over right now," Wang Jun said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I understand." The subordinate nodded quickly and left.
Ye Xingchen and Gu Manyun did indeed arrive. In a luxurious private room, Gu Manyun was sipping a bottle of wine.
"It tastes sour." Gu Manyun casually threw the glass in her hand to the ground. She glanced at the waiter and said, "Your Jiangnan Club has such a great reputation, can't you even get a normal bottle of wine?"
"Excuse me, ma'am, this wine may not suit your taste. I'll get you a different one right away," the waiter said patiently.
