The market administrator didn't expect Wang Bin to give him no chance to bargain. Now that both of his deputies had been killed, if he didn't agree, the next one would be next.
"Alright, alright, I promise you, I'll compensate you with five thousand magic cores. However, I don't have that many right now. Give me some time, and I'll have someone gather the magic cores for you!" the market manager said in a panic.
"Five minutes. I'm only giving you five minutes. If I don't see five thousand magic cores in five minutes, you can go to the underworld to join your subordinates," Wang Bin said calmly.
"Alright, alright, I'll get someone to collect them right away!" The market manager agreed, then stood up and shouted loudly outside, "Are you all dead? Hurry up and borrow three thousand magic cores! I'm only giving you three minutes. If you can't borrow them, then steal them! In short, if I don't see three thousand magic cores in my hands in three minutes, you're all dead! Hurry up, what are you all standing around for!"
The guards outside were stunned when they heard their superior's words, but they eventually dispersed and ran towards the shop owner outside.
Soon the shop owners realized what had happened. At first, they didn't want to give it up, but the guards took action, which frightened them so much that they all took out their magic cores.
In no time at all, more than three thousand magic cores were collected and delivered to the market manager.
"Here are five thousand magic cores. Can you let me go now?" the market administrator said.
"I like obedient people." After saying that, Wang Bin got up and strode outside.
He knew that the forces of Haidu would not cooperate with him, and since he was robbing Haidu's survivors, he knew that a battle with them was inevitable sooner or later, so why should he be polite to them?
Only by appearing assertive will the other party be more afraid and dare not provoke them.
When Wang Bin led Guan Xiaoyue and the others out, the guards at the door retreated to both sides and stared at them nervously. The bosses in the distance dared not utter a single word and looked at Wang Bin and the others in fear.
Thinking to himself, this dragon crossing the river is too fierce. It doesn't follow the rules at all and doesn't take the other forces in Haidu seriously.
These bosses are in charge of the business, and they're all incredibly shrewd. They should leave these troublesome matters to their superiors; for now, they just need to keep a low profile.
When the market management saw Wang Bin leave with his men, they immediately called their superiors. They had expected that their superiors would send people to suppress Wang Bin, but to their surprise, their superiors simply said that they didn't need to worry about Wang Bin's matter and that everything should continue as before.
The market administrator was stunned; he hadn't expected that everyone above was so afraid of Wang Bin.
Wang Bin led Guan Xiaoyue to the car, took out a board and a pen, and wrote a notice on it, saying that their shop in the market was permanently closed and the shop was moving to the former Black Dog Gang headquarters. People who needed to buy food should go there to buy it.
Soon it was time for the market to open to the public, and the unemployed survivors entered the market one after another. They quickly noticed that something was wrong. Before long, everyone gathered in front of Wang Bin's shop. Looking at the shop that had been smashed to pieces and was emitting a foul stench, everyone immediately understood what had happened.
One of them, at Wang Bin's signal, strode out and said loudly, "Yesterday, our shop was looted and vandalized by thugs. Given the poor security in the market, we have decided to close our shop here. If anyone needs to buy food, please go to the former Black Dog Gang's base. For the first three days, we will be offering a special promotion: rice will only cost fifteen magic cores per pound. If you need to buy, please go now."
"What?! A pound of rice only costs fifteen magic cores? That's half the price of other shops!"
"Great! Let's go, let's go now!"
"Are you courting death? This is clearly a deliberate attack by other forces against them. If we go and make the purchase, we'll be going against the other forces in Haidu. We'd better be careful!"
"That's true, we'd better wait and see!"
Wang Bin listened to everyone's words, but said nothing more, and drove away with his men.
He refused to believe that in such a large coastal city, no one would be afraid to risk danger to buy food for survival.
As soon as Wang Bin and his men left, many people began to inquire about what had happened. Soon, someone discovered that there were more than ten corpses at the entrance of the market management station, two of which were former high-ranking administrators.
For a moment, many people were stunned and couldn't process what had happened. Some, however, remembered the blood on Guan Xiaoyue's body and quickly guessed that these people must have been killed by Wang Bin. They were all shocked.
None of them expected that Wang Bin, a newcomer from elsewhere, would dare to openly confront other forces in Haidu.
Before long, the truth about what happened here came out, and everyone learned what had happened. The news spread like wildfire, quickly reaching the entire city of Haidu, and Wang Bin's fame soared overnight.
This news is even more shocking than the last time the Black Dog Gang was wiped out. Last time, it was just a small, isolated gang, but now they are openly making an enemy of the entire Haidu.
Miao Ruyun was surprised to see Wang Bin return so early, but when she saw the blood on Guan Xiaoyue's body, she knew what had happened and quickly came over to ask.
"Your Majesty, what has happened?"
“Our shop was vandalized, so I led a group of people into the administrator’s office and took back 5,000 magic cores as compensation.”
"You really are someone who's unwilling to suffer any loss!"
"Haha, you can't be soft-hearted when dealing with enemies."
"Xiaoyue, hurry up and go inside to wash up and change into some clean clothes."
"Um."
"We can't sell anything there anymore, so we'll have to find another room here to use as our shop."
"That's good, then you won't have to travel so far every day anymore."
Everyone quickly learned what had happened at the market, and they were all furious. But when they heard that Wang Bin had led his men into the market administrator's office, the administrator was so scared that he didn't dare to utter a sound and obediently handed over five thousand magic cores, and everyone laughed happily.
Then, under Miao Ruyun's direction, everyone set up a shop in a nearby building. After a busy morning, they finally got the shop open again.
Those who came to register heard about the special offers for the three days, and after registering, they all lined up to buy rice.
Just as Wang Bin had predicted, although some people hesitated due to fear of other forces and adopted a wait-and-see attitude, many others still came to buy.
When they saw that other forces had not made a move against Wang Bin, those who had been watching from the sidelines could no longer sit still and came over to buy things.
The shop became incredibly popular overnight.
Wang Bin then had the large video camera reinstalled in their room, plugged in the power, and started playing the video again.
