"Why are you running? There has to be a result for what happened today, right?" Ye Xingchen said with a slight smile.
"Heh, do you even know what surname Yun Shi has?" Huang Ping looked at Ye Xingchen with pity, his expression as if he were looking at a dead man.
"His surname is Zhou, is there even a need to ask?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"Since you know your surname is Zhou, why do you still dare to cause trouble here? The bar is managed by the second master of the Zhou family. You're going to die."
As they were talking, a commotion arose in the crowd, and a group of men in black surrounded a man who walked over. This man was none other than Zhou Minggan…
This bar street is within the Zhou family's sphere of influence. Zhou Kunsheng has stopped managing the chamber of commerce's small businesses in recent years, and Zhou Minggan is in charge of the bars and other entertainment venues.
"Second Master, you've arrived?" Brother Qiang hurriedly went to greet him. "I'm sorry, Second Master, it's such a small matter that has bothered you. This kid is causing trouble here, he deserves to die..."
Zhou Ming gave Qiang Ge a cold look, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction.
Qiang Ge's heart skipped a beat, and he was instantly terrified, turning pale. He desperately tried to figure out what he had done wrong to displease the Second Master.
“Mr. Ye.” Zhou Minggan ignored Qiang Ge and walked up to Ye Xingchen, saying respectfully, “These people in the family are ignorant and have made you angry. Please don’t mind.”
Upon hearing this, Qiang Ge's face turned deathly pale, and even Huang Bo's expression changed drastically.
This is Zhou Minggan, the second-in-command of the Zhou Clan Chamber of Commerce, known as Second Master.
Yun City is ruled by the Zhou family. Although there are several other forces besides the Zhou Clan Chamber of Commerce, none of them are worth mentioning.
Even a powerful family like the Meng family, with Old Master Meng being a senior figure in the martial arts world, would have to give the Zhou family some face.
Moreover, this Second Master never considers the consequences of his actions; it's safe to say there's no one in Yun City he's afraid of.
But why is he so respectful to Ye Xingchen today?
"It's nothing much," Ye Xingchen glanced at Qiang Ge, whose face was ashen. "But your people are really a bit blind."
"We'll leave the decision to Mr. Ye," Zhou Minggan said.
"Get out of Yun City, and don't let me see him here again." Ye Xingchen waved his hand.
"Understood." Zhou Minggan turned around: "Break both legs and drive them out of Yun City."
"Spare me, Second Master! Please spare me this time! I'll never do it again!" Qiang Ge screamed in terror. He knelt down on the ground and begged, "Please give me another chance, considering how many years I've served you faithfully."
"Ignorant fool, you're blind as a bat." Zhou Minggan said viciously, "Mr. Ye is a distinguished guest of my brother and me, how dare you offend him? Breaking both your legs today without taking your life is already being lenient."
"The reason why our Zhou family has been able to establish itself in Yun City is because we build our business on integrity, unlike those people who run bar scams and rip off tourists with exorbitantly priced drinking parties. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"
Zhou Minggan flicked his sleeve: "Men, drag him away, break both his legs, banish him from Yun City, and never let him return."
"Yes..." Zhou Minggan's two subordinates came forward, helped Qiang Ge out, and a moment later a scream was heard outside the door, followed by silence.
"Mr. Ye, what should we do with this woman?" Zhou Minggan pointed to Lanlan, who was trembling with fear, and said with a smile, "If Mr. Ye likes her, then let her keep you company tonight."
"Do you think I would be interested in such a common and vulgar woman?" Ye Xingchen was somewhat speechless.
Although Lanlan is fairly good-looking and has a good figure, that's the average person's standard of beauty.
Every woman around him is far superior to him.
“Yes, Mr. Ye certainly wouldn’t look down on this kind of woman. Men, drag her away and slap her twenty times.” Zhou Minggan waved his hand.
Several burly men immediately came over, pulled Lanlan downstairs, and a moment later, cries of "Dad, Mom, Dad!" could be heard outside.
Zhou Minggan spoke up, and the woman's face was slapped repeatedly.
“Mr. Ye, I’m really sorry to have given you such a bad experience. My club isn’t far from here. Why don’t you come and sit with me?” Zhou Ming said with a forced smile.
"Okay." Ye Xingchen nodded, though he was indeed a bit disappointed.
However, it's not bad to come and see the top-tier club in Yun City, so he's about to leave now.
"Ye, Ye Xingchen." Just then, Huang Bo hesitated before speaking.
"What's wrong, senior? Is something the matter?" Ye Xingchen glanced at him.
"Well, we're all classmates, so please take care of me in the future." Huang Bo's features scrunched up, making him look like a blooming chrysanthemum.
He swore that if he had known earlier that Ye Xingchen and the second master of the Zhou family had such a good relationship, he would never have dared to put on airs just now.
"That's unnecessary, we're not that close anyway." Ye Xingchen laughed. He didn't even consider Huang Bo worthy of his attention, so he ignored him and left with Zhou Minggan.
Within the Zhou Clan Chamber of Commerce, most industries are managed by Zhou Minggan, including river sand, cement, gravel, and entertainment venues, which are also the main sources of income for the Zhou Clan Chamber of Commerce.
In addition, there are also demolition and real estate businesses.
It can be said that Zhou Kunsheng has now completely relinquished control. Apart from some core businesses that he is in control of, he doesn't concern himself with anything else.
Zhou Minggan's largest club is a notorious den of iniquity in Yun City, with six floors dedicated to entertainment and extremely luxurious private rooms.
The first and second basement levels house the largest casino in the southwest area.
Every night, the turnover of this place exceeds 100 million yuan, and it is also known as the "Little Australia Peninsula" in China.
Zhou Minggan accompanied Ye Xingchen on a tour of the casino, and when they arrived at the casino downstairs, he said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, the gambling industry here is one of the largest in the country. Would you be interested in playing a couple of rounds?"
"I'm not really interested. Your business here is doing quite well." Ye Xingchen looked at the almost full casino and couldn't help but sigh. There are still a lot of gamblers in this world.
"Because the Zhou family values integrity in business," Zhou Minggan said. "Moreover, we know when to stop and when to stop. If we win, we win; we won't make things difficult for our customers."
Just then, several thugs dragged a customer who was blinded by greed out of the game.
The customer struggled and screamed, "Lend me 100,000, I can win it back, just 100,000..."
But the thugs ignored him completely and dragged him away to a room to sober up.
"What happened?" Zhou Minggan asked.
"Second Master, this guy has lost all his money, and then borrowed another 300,000 from us and lost it all too. According to the rules, we can't lend him any more money," one of the thugs replied.
“Okay, go ahead.” Zhou Ming nodded.
"Only lending out 300,000?" Ye Xingchen asked curiously, "Doesn't he have anything to offer as collateral?"
