The few people had just arrived and were walking in the intricate streets of Chinatown, and they had lost their way without realizing it.
Following the young man's instructions, I turned a few corners and walked a few streets before I saw a yard surrounded by barbed wire in the distance. Inside the yard, there was a container-connected house made by connecting red containers together.
There were quite a few figures in the courtyard, both Chinese and foreigners, all of them looked ruffian, with fierce expressions on their faces and all kinds of fancy tattoos on their bodies.
Although they were a little nervous, they still bravely came forward.
At the entrance stood a middle-aged man, not tall, with a rat-like face, wearing a suit and tie, pointed leather shoes, and his sparse hair fell back, appearing shiny black in the sunlight. He grinned as he spoke, and his two buck teeth were particularly noticeable.
He seemed to be of some status. When he stood in front of the door, two younger brothers came up to him with smiles on their faces. One handed him a cigarette and the other lit it.
Hao Zhengguang walked over quickly and asked with a smile, "Brother, please tell me if Chen Dong is..."
The man had his back to the street and was startled by the sudden question. The cigarette in his mouth almost fell to the ground. He turned around with an annoyed look on his face, and when he saw the sloppy guys, he became even more angry. Without saying a word, he slapped them!
The slap caught Hao Zhengguang off guard. He spun around, blood splattering at the corner of his mouth. After regaining his balance, he covered his face and shouted, "If you don't understand Chinese, just say something. Why the hell did you hit me?!"
Lin Lidong, who was behind him, tightened his gaze and was about to move forward, but You Tianfu stopped him with a look, signaling him not to act rashly.
Hearing the rebuttal, the man also cursed: "A bunch of stinky beggars, you scared me! Don't you even know where you are? Don't you even ask who I am? What's wrong with hitting you? I'll kick you again!"
After saying that, he raised one leg and was about to move his foot, but was stopped by a low growl: "Stop!"
The sound came from the side, and everyone turned to look, only to see a tall, thin man appear on the side of the road. He had an ordinary appearance and was dressed casually, but his eyes were very distinctive. His eyelids were wide and his eye bags were thick, and his eyes were narrowed into a thin slit, giving people the feeling that he had not woken up yet.
After calling out to the man in the suit, he walked straight up to the group, his eyes narrowing even more: "Are you from Lujiu City?"
Hao Zhengguang nodded: "Yes, we are from the Daqin Group and came here specifically to find Chen Dong!"
After hearing this, the man turned his gaze to the man in the suit: "Bucktooth Zhang, did you hear that? This is Master Dong's guest."
Bucktooth Zhang also glared and snorted, "Mr. Dong's customers have nothing to do with me. This is the south of the city, Brother Nan's territory. Don't be so arrogant, Lun, or I'll beat you up too!"
Lunzi was neither impatient nor anxious, and his voice was a little colder: "Oh? You're going to get beaten on your own territory? Does this mean that from now on, whenever you go to the east city, I will treat you well? Or, can you promise not to go to the east city for the rest of your life?"
Bucktooth Zhang knew he was in the wrong, so he stopped arguing and glared at them fiercely: "I'll give you three minutes to disappear immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" After that, he turned and walked into the yard.
Lunzi shook his head and motioned for them to follow him. After leaving Bucktooth Zhang's territory, he turned around and looked around. His eyes swirled around and finally stopped at You Tianfu. "Are you Qin Yuanming's son, Qin Yuhao?"
You Tianfu shook his head and pointed to the side: "I'm not, he is. He was seriously injured and hasn't recovered yet."
Lunzi nodded and introduced himself as he walked. "My name is Wang Qianzhuan, nicknamed Lunzi, and I hang out with Master Dong. To find Master Dong, we have to go to the east of the city, not the south. There are so many people here, how can we even tell east, west, and north?"
In fact, Qin Yuhao and others had just boarded the ship when Chen Dong, who was far away in Chinatown, had already received the news. He calculated their arrival time and asked the captain to come out and bring the people back.
Lunzi was doing business in the south of the city at that time. After hearing the letter, he started to rush to the east of the city. Unexpectedly, when he passed by the territory of Zhang with buck teeth, he happened to meet a few people who were going in the wrong direction. When he heard Hao Zhengguang calling Chen Dong's name and saw the miserable appearance of the few people, he guessed that these were the people that Dong Ye asked him to lead.
Following the wheel, we came to the east of the city. We saw the same red container houses, but without the barbed wire fence around them. People we met along the way started to greet us and kept shouting "Hello, Brother Lun".
Entering the container house, I found a space resembling an office. Sitting at a large desk was a man. He was Chen Dong, a man as tall and thin as a wheel, nearing fifty. His face was wrinkled, his hair atop a few strands of white hair. His eyes, gleaming with brilliance, seemed to see through people's hearts without them even saying a word.
Chen Dong didn't recognize these younger generations, but he recognized Aunt Hong: "Hongmei, it's been more than ten years since we last met. I've grown old, but you're still young. I didn't expect that after all these years, you've been guarding the Qin family all this time."
Aunt Hong smiled gently, "How can you say you're young? You've already aged and faded. I never thought you'd be so successful in Chinatown. The master was right when he said you were a talent."
After some discussion, Chen Dong learned the whole story. He was also shocked to learn about the changes in the Daqin Group and the death of Qin Yuanming. He then looked at Qin Yuhao and others, thought for a moment, and said, "Boss Qin was very kind to me back then. He sent me abroad when I was in the most difficult time and gave me some start-up capital to make a comeback.
Now that the Qin family is in trouble and you've come to seek refuge, I naturally won't sit idly by. But I have a rule of "three no-supports": I don't support idlers, lazy people, or mediocre people.
There's a factory in the East District that I'll give you, along with some start-up capital. What you build, how you build it, and who you sell it to are all up to you. When I first arrived, the conditions were even more stringent, but it didn't stop me from taking charge now.
If you are really capable, prove it to me!"
After he finished speaking, he took out a file bag from his desk drawer and handed it to me. Inside was the factory key and a sum of cash.
Qin Yuhao's face was pale, but he still forced himself to hold on and nodded vigorously: "Master Dong, thank you! I will come to see you again when I recover from my injuries!"
After they left the office, Lunzi next to them asked, "Master Dong, that factory has been abandoned for years. The weeds in the yard are taller than me. It might be difficult to revive it. Boss Qin treated you well back then. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to do this now?"
Chen Dong smiled faintly, "Boss Qin is a man who values talent. He has indeed treated me well, but that is the friendship between us. The power of the Daqin Group is far beyond your imagination. This young master has only been in charge for a few years and he has already lost both his people and his wealth.
Before you understand his abilities, would you dare to use someone like him? "
