Lu Yuan quickly moved closer.
"I just smelled smoke on you. Give me a pack of cigarettes, and I'll tell you about this Boss Kong!" The other person sniffed Lu Yuan's scent and suddenly felt a bit addicted to cigarettes.
Lu Yuan sneered, then took out the last half pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, and waved it in front of him.
The skinny young man immediately swallowed hard.
"Heh! I not only want you to tell me about this Boss Kong, I also want you to personally lead us there! Tell me, did you get these vegetables from Boss Kong?"
Lu Yuan stared intently at the man in front of him, who swallowed hard and said, "Give me the cigarette first! I'll tell you about this Boss Kong right away!"
"Hehe! You go first! Let me hear if you're making this up! If you're making it up, and you've already smoked this cigarette, I can't get it back even if I wanted it!"
The other party glared fiercely at Lu Yuan and said, "You're ruthless!"
"Alright! I'll just tell you one thing: 70% of the vegetables I have, including those from other markets, come from Boss Kong! And he also has some other fruits! Now you can give me the cigarettes, right?"
Upon hearing this, the group became interested and were quite shocked by Kong Laoda's abilities. They never expected that in this day and age, Kong Laoda could still obtain fresh vegetables and fruits.
Lu Yuan was also filled with doubt. Could it be that the other party also had a dimensional space like his?
So Lu Yuan handed the cigarette to the other man. The skinny young man took the cigarette, immediately took out a lighter, lit it, and took a deep drag, looking completely intoxicated.
At this point, the people next to him finally couldn't resist the temptation and snatched the cigarettes from him, taking a deep drag. So it was passed down from one person to another, and the skinny young man hadn't even had a chance to taste a second cigarette before it was all gone.
"Get the hell out of here! You dared to steal my stuff!"
Then, looking pitifully at Lu Yuan, the brick pleaded, "Big brother! Give me another one! I haven't had enough yet!"
"Hehe! Want to have some fun? Fine! I still have half a pack of cigarettes. As long as you take me to find Boss Kong and tell me everything you know, this half pack of cigarettes is yours!"
As he spoke, Lu Yuan waved the half-pack of Zhonghua cigarettes in front of the other man's eyes. The man snatched the cigarettes back, then took out one, lit it, and immediately stuffed the rest into his pocket. The others tried to grab it again, but the man had already picked up a dagger and angrily said, "Get lost! You can have another one later! This one is mine!"
So the young man finished his cigarette in a few puffs and smiled with satisfaction.
"Alright! Brother, for the sake of this half-pack of cigarettes, I'll take you there! And I'll tell you everything I know!"
Then the young man began to tell Lu Yuan about this Boss Kong.
This "Master Kong" was originally named Kong Qiang. The title "Master Kong" was given to him by outsiders. He was just an ordinary office worker, like other citizens, suffering from hunger and thirst every day, but he had no good solution.
Later, the people of Qingshui City became dissatisfied with eating only such a small amount of food each day, so they began to try to obtain grain. However, the grain was all controlled by the government, and they had no way to get it. As a result, some of them chose to take the risk and become bandits, specifically robbing civilians who had grain in their possession.
At first, robbing grain was quite dangerous, and the crackdown on bandits was very strong. Later, these bandits went underground and would specifically choose the middle of the night to scale walls and break into houses to rob.
Because the first group of people who did this got a taste of success, more and more people joined them. So someone suggested forming a gang, which was later wiped out as the Destroyer Gang. During another burglary, Boss Kong was also robbed, and because he had no food, he joined the gang of robbers.
Later, as people became more vigilant, the robbers' business became increasingly difficult. Eventually, Boss Kong inadvertently learned that a research institution specialized in cultivating hydroponically grown plants that only required some nutrient solution to grow rapidly. So he informed the Destroyer Gang, but he was cautious and did not tell them the location of the laboratory, only the families of the researchers.
So the Destroyer Gang stormed into the homes of these experimenters, killing many people and obtaining a considerable amount of food. Just as they were dividing the spoils, a group of fully armed special police officers suddenly rushed in and wiped them out, killing all the high-ranking members of the Destroyer Gang.
After the Annihilation Gang was wiped out, it became difficult to organize a gang as large as the Annihilation Gang in Qingshui City. So, Boss Kong secretly seized the laboratory and acquired its technology. Using some of the vegetables inside, he gathered a group of loyal followers and began to establish his own territory in Qingshui City. His fame even surpassed that of the Annihilation Gang. However, Boss Kong knew the reasons for the Annihilation Gang's downfall, so he had no intention of following the same path as the Annihilation Gang.
Anyone with resources that he can use can be exchanged for food, vegetables, fruit, or even meat from him, provided that the items are of value.
However, this person appears harmless on the surface, but in reality, he is a psychopathic killer. At least dozens of people have died at his hands. However, the police have no way to deal with him, since it is not appropriate to arrest him directly without evidence against him.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded immediately, feeling quite shocked by the story of how this Boss Kong rose to power.
"Alright, since that's the case, then take us there! We don't plan to go back empty-handed! By the way, how are the groceries you bought? Do we need any paperwork?"
The gaunt young man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No formalities are needed, just sign a contract with him. To be honest, I want to break the contract now, but I don't dare, because my family is under his surveillance."
Lu Yuan was stunned: "You need a contract to buy things? What kind of nonsense is this?"
"Sigh! It's just like joining the Destroyer Gang, only slightly better in nature. But occasionally, he'll assign us tasks he can't handle. However, since you have money, he'll probably sell it to you!"
Lu Yuan nodded.
"Alright! Then take us there!"
