"...What did you say?"
Upon hearing Xu Shi's request, Ding Jun's tone unconsciously rose.
“I said, I want you to give them half of the territory in District Six.”
Xu Shi repeated it softly, a hint of impatience in his voice, "Did you hear me clearly this time, Chief Ding?"
This isn't a question of whether I heard it clearly or not!
Ding Jun frowned. He had just conquered the Sixth District and hadn't even had a chance to sit down properly, yet the other party wanted to take half of it. Wasn't that a bit much?
Although this was within his expectations, Xu Shi certainly wouldn't completely trust him... just as he himself had other intentions, he would definitely have similar requests.
But when you actually hear it, you certainly won't feel good, let alone the fact that he's asking for so much.
"Does Chairman Xu think I can't manage things well?"
So he still wanted to try, "That really won't happen. I probably know more about the situation in Sin City than your own people do. If you send someone over, we can help each other out..."
I don't want to say the same thing three times.
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Shi interrupted him, "Besides, this isn't a discussion, it's a notification."
"I've invested so much in you, yet I only want a 50/50 split with you... Is that too much to ask?"
"..."
Ding Jun was speechless for a moment, sensing the displeasure in the other person's tone.
Or perhaps it's a reminder to him to recognize his place. As I said before, if he can choose to support him and the "Long Knife Party," he can also support others.
Imagine if Xu Shi had chosen "Angry Wolf," then wouldn't Ding Jun be the one being beaten like a dog just now? If our roles were reversed, that would be truly cruel.
Even what he gave himself, he can take back, can't he...?
He is actually quite perceptive about the situation and knows very well that Xu Shi is not what the outside world says.
This young master is very ambitious, and he acts quite boldly and even recklessly... This can be seen from the fact that he disregarded the established rules between Night City and Sin City and supplied himself with those high-tech equipment.
Not to mention District Six, he might even be considering the entire Sin City.
You say this is a fantasy? I'm afraid not. The Sixth District changed hands under his arrangement while he was talking, and thinking about it, Ding Jun felt it was somewhat unreal.
Undoubtedly, following Xu Shi has many benefits; at least he has already seen the practical benefits—not just in the Sixth District, but the superior equipment alone is enough to make him sever ties with "imaginary" justice without hesitation.
The only thing that bothered him was that the other party wasn't looking for him to cooperate, but rather to make him their dog...
Thinking this, Ding Jun suddenly felt inexplicably wronged.
Didn't we agree that I'd be the biggest hater? Huh?
But looking at his armor again, it seems unlikely that he would give it up.
"...I understand. Do you have any specific requirements regarding the neighborhood?"
After a moment's thought, Ding Jun sighed and wisely gave in.
It's that one that smells both bad and smells good.
"That's right."
Xu Shi smiled happily, "Chief Ding, please stabilize the Sixth District first. I'll discuss the details with you later."
Actually, it's not that important to him which neighborhood it is.
Asking Ding Jun for territory was just for Lin Yue's sake—Xu Shi found himself becoming more and more like a top-notch entertainer, and his plan for this little assassin sister was becoming clearer and clearer in his mind.
He helped her gradually rise to the top, and even deliberately made her uphold the justice in her heart, so that she could take revenge on him again in the end.
Imagine a hero who has overcome countless obstacles and dangers to reach the Demon King, ready to carry out his duty of justice, only to discover that his equipment, his skills, and even his companions were all gifts from the Demon King…
What would her mindset be like? Not to mention that the brave Lin Yue still has a princess-like presence in her heart for Shen He.
That's hard to say, but I'm sure I'll reap great rewards. The territory of Sin City will be truly secured, and there will also be the fruit of the evil seed in Lin Yue's heart...
As for whether she'll come to her senses halfway through... it doesn't matter. She's already realized that her dear younger sister seems to have some issues, but what impact will that have? Well, it will have some impact, but not much.
Keeping her in that ambiguous state of being close yet distant is much more interesting than keeping her completely in the dark.
Tsk tsk tsk, I'm such a bad guy. I hope the little assassin girl won't get ruined.
"Alright, Chief Ding, stop looking so gloomy. Being content isn't necessarily a bad thing."
He didn't forget to comfort Ding Jun, reminding him that while he and Lin Yue were having fun, the infiltration of Sin City couldn't stop. "Our cooperation has only just begun, and you'll definitely reap the benefits later... Besides, I'm working very hard too. Otherwise, do you expect to handle 'Dragon City' all by yourself?"
"Besides, didn't you notice that the members of 'White Iron' never appeared from beginning to end?"
?
This reminded Ding Jun; thinking about it, it seems to be true.
With everyone else arriving, it only highlighted that something was off about "White Iron." Given their personalities, they shouldn't have been unable to sit still in the face of such a situation.
"So, it's you, Chairman Xu..."
That's true.
Xu Shi chuckled and sighed; in truth, he was too lazy to bother with such a fuss.
But who could blame him for learning this little secret from the plot—"White Iron" is to Xie Qingyan what "Long Knife Gang" is to him?
Then we can't just ignore it. If that slut really wants to muddy the waters, then bullying her is a kind of fun in life.
...
The "White Iron" team didn't come; they were being singled out and defended.
An hour before the incident in District Six, Ye Shanshan arrived in Sin City and relayed Xie Qingyan's instructions to Song Ziyou, the leader of "White Iron"—if there was any disturbance, they would attack whoever caused trouble.
The result was obvious: the Longsword Gang attacked Disgaea and attempted to take over the entire Sixth District.
Then there's no need to say anything more.
"Let's go, Chief Song, we're going to District Seven."
Ye Shanshan waved her hand as if she had expected this, "Let's see if we can take this opportunity to wipe out the 'Long Knife Gang's' hideout, what do you say?"
"But Secretary Ye, didn't you say that Ding Jun got a batch of new equipment from 'Snake Ring'? Could it have been difficult for him to acquire it...?"
Song Ziyou was a little worried. It was true that they listened to "Prism", but he didn't want to make enemies of "Snake Ring".
"What are you afraid of?"
Ye Shanshan rolled her eyes at him. "Didn't Chairman Xie also give you a batch of equipment? Besides, I went with you, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
"……OK."
It has to be said that having Ye Shanshan, an A-level "promoter," around did give them some reassurance.
However.
Just as they were about to arrive at District Seven.
A slender figure in a suit blocked their way.
"I'm so sorry, Secretary Ye."
Su Lin seemed completely unsurprised by Ye Shanshan's appearance. "Young Master gave the order."
"Passage is prohibited here."
