Xie Jiannan's worries were not unfounded. The five vehicle convoys they met in the morning turned north shortly after entering the main road of China City, and soon stopped in front of the gate of Phyllis Park in the north of the city.
The strict security of the North City Park is well known to everyone. Even people of Lei Haozi's level have to go through verification and security checks when entering and leaving. However, when they saw this convoy, the gate slowly opened. Not to mention inspection, even the car windows were not rolled down. Five cars in a row drove straight into the yard.
As soon as the vehicle stopped, eight armed soldiers in camouflage uniforms and holding submachine guns jumped out from the four jeeps in front and behind. They stood in two rows beside the car. Then the car door opened and a man in a suit walked out.
The man was in his forties, with prominent ears, a broad nose, and unusually small eyes set against high cheekbones. He was dressed in a suit and tie, his leather shoes glistening with light. He had a slightly bald spot that blended seamlessly into his full forehead.
This man's name is Zhou Zhengwei, and he is the "North Wind" among the five big bosses in Chinatown.
He also started from scratch in Chinatown, but he was not involved in commercial businesses such as prostitution, gambling, and drugs, nor was he involved in fraud and reselling like Phyllis. Instead, he plunged into officialdom and had connections with some leaders in the Burmese and Vietnamese strongholds. At the same time, he also knew many warlord forces in the surrounding areas, and step by step he rose to a high position.
If we were to rank the five Chinatown bosses based on their true strength, Chen Dong, Wang Manxi, and Xie Jiannan would be roughly on par. Some have extensive connections, many sworn brothers, and some have ample funds. Each has their own strengths. But compared to Phyllis, they lag behind.
Zhou Zhengwei is a person that even Phyllis has to give way to. He seems to be born into officialdom. He has a smart mind and flexible thinking, and his words are flawless.
Since leaving Chinatown, he has hardly ever returned, because this small, ownerless city has restricted his performance. He has been wandering between the three countries for many years and has indeed successfully made himself an upper-class figure.
After getting off the car, Zhou Zhengwei was escorted by a group of people directly into the building and went straight to Phyllis's office.
They were very fast. They had just arrived at the office door when I finished reporting the situation. Except for Phyllis, they kept everyone else outside.
Faced with Zhou Zhengwei's sudden visit, Phyllis seemed a little flustered. He always looked down on Chinese people, but Zhou Zhengwei was an exception. Not only did he not dare to look down on him, but he also had to treat him with caution and courtesy.
He stood up and was about to pour some water, but Zhou Zhengwei raised his hand to stop him: "Don't bother, I'll just say a few words and leave when I'm done."
Phyllis nodded, led him to sit on the sofa beside him, and then asked tentatively: "Mr. Zhou, you should have told me in advance that you are coming so that I can prepare in advance."
Zhou Zhengwei's face was expressionless, and his voice was low, but his words were exceptionally clear: "You really need to prepare well. This ownerless city will soon have an owner!"
Hearing this, Phyllis' heart tightened. She didn't respond and continued to listen patiently.
Zhou Zhengwei then asked, "Do you know Ruan Kaiming?"
Phyllis responded, "I've heard of him. He's Vietnamese, a warlord. He's very famous in Vietnam in recent years. Many gun dealers consider him a big client."
Zhou Zhengwei nodded: "Yes, two months ago, Ruan Kaiming officially formed his own army, but due to various reasons, the armed base could not be built in Myanmar. So after some research, he decided to occupy Chinatown and turn it into his own armed forces and military base to lay the foundation for future development.
I don't need to go into detail about the situation in Chinatown. There are several forces scattered around. Although they are just thugs, they are still a headache.
Today I am here to convey a message on behalf of General Nguyen Kai Minh. Two months later, he will lead his men to officially march into Chinatown.
Before that, you can choose to unify the forces in the city and settle all the troubles.
If you lend a helping hand to Ruan Kaiming, he will divide the industrial park and part of the land in the north of the city for you to continue using. Not only will it not affect your business, but the army will also further ensure the safety of the entire industrial park.
You can also choose to join forces with those thugs and openly resist the army's arrival, but you will have to bear the consequences of doing so!"
Zhou Zhengwei spoke in a steady voice and expressionless face, but every word that came out of his mouth hit Phyllis's eardrums.
When gangsters go against the army, even a fool knows what the consequences will be. Zhou Zhengwei gave two choices on the surface, but in fact he was analyzing the pros and cons of the matter and telling Phyllis not to be ignorant of the current situation.
Phyllis naturally understood what he heard. Although he knew that there would definitely be many restrictions after the warlords moved in, and his business would definitely not operate normally as Zhou Zhengwei said, this was indeed a choice he had no choice but to make. Once he refused, even if he had his own armed forces, these were nothing compared to Ruan Kaiming's army.
Phyllis barely hesitated and immediately agreed. "Mr. Zhou, you're thinking of me at this moment. I'm deeply grateful. Please tell General Ruan Kaiming when you return that those thugs in Chinatown are no obstacle. In two months, I'll clear everything up and welcome him in!"
After receiving a positive answer, Zhou Zhengwei nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and left under the escort of a group of people.
Phyllis accompanied them all the way to the park gate until the convoy was completely out of sight. The smile on his face then began to freeze. He turned back to the office and instructed his men to notify Nathan and Lei Haozi to come see him immediately.
Half an hour later, the two arrived one after another, looking at Phyllis with a serious expression, both of them were puzzled.
