Xu Zhi didn't answer, but instead asked, "I've shown enough sincerity. If you want to know more details, shouldn't you show some as well?"
If you agree on something, do it decisively and efficiently.
Without further hesitation, Chuanliu extended his hand, saying, "I'll be relying on you from now on, Sister Xu."
Xu shook hands in return, "Welcome to the world of blocks."
These were the exact same words on the invitation, but when spoken by her personally, they carried a different meaning.
After they reached an agreement, they both looked at the money string.
Qian Chuan sighed. He had wanted to stay out of it, but there was no way he could get away with it.
"Let me make this clear first, I'm not doing manual labor for you."
Xu Zhi smiled and nodded. Given Qian Chuan's status, if he hadn't been so unambitious about his position, he probably would have already reached a high-level position.
What she wanted was for Qian Chuan to say that he didn't object.
After bidding farewell to Xu Zhi, Chuanliu and Qian Chuan left the Fangkuai Winery.
By this time, the moon was already high in the sky, and the towering buildings made the two of them appear extremely small.
"If you agree, you agree, but why are you trying to drag me into this?"
Qian Chuan kicked at the pebbles at his feet, his hands in his pockets, looking completely focused.
Chuanliu walked behind him, shifting the blame: "Who told you not to tell me about these grudges and grievances beforehand? We were on their turf, and we even learned about their secrets. If we didn't agree, how could we have gotten away unscathed? I'm trying to help you."
Qian Chuan chuckled, "Have you considered who 'Diamond 10' would target first if they found out?"
"But we still have you, so brave and mighty."
Chuanliu's expression remained unchanged, but he was also pondering how to solve this problem.
Qian Chuan suddenly stopped and turned to look at her. "What are you planning?"
The girl was taken aback for a moment, then resumed her smiling expression. "I'm planning... how to get on the good side of our Brother Qian Liu."
Ignoring her banter, Qianquan, unusually serious, said, "The battle between the 'Nine of Diamonds' and the 'Ten of Diamonds' will definitely affect many people, not just us, but even those of other suits. If things really descend into chaos, no one will benefit."
After saying that, the man walked away.
Now that the struggle between the two sides has begun, their future lives are destined to be anything but peaceful.
Watching Qian Chuan's retreating figure, Chuan Liu calmly curled the corners of his mouth.
confusion?
Isn't it good?
Chuanliu always believes:
"Chaos is not an abyss, chaos is a ladder."
It's clear that Xu Zhi doesn't want to confront "10 of Diamonds" head-on. If he resorts to violence, it could result in a lose-lose situation, and if someone takes advantage of the situation, it would be a net loss.
That's why Xu Zhicai tried his best to win everyone's support.
This struggle can only continue if Xu Zhi gains support.
So after learning all this, Chuanliu agreed without hesitation.
Hopefully, this chaos will allow us to reach people at higher levels...
On the other side.
Bang!
A teacup was smashed against the corner of the wall, and scalding tea splashed out along with the porcelain shards.
A middle-aged man was panting heavily, gripping the handle tightly in his hand as if he wanted to crush it.
"Damn it! Xu Zhi is openly recruiting people now! Does he think I'm dead?"
"Brother Jia, calm down, don't get sick from getting angry."
A beautiful woman sat on the middle-aged man's lap, her slender, red-nailed hands gently stroking his back.
Jia touched her thigh, trying to calm the restlessness in his heart.
His nose twitched, and his hands groped restlessly around. "I'd like to know who went?"
The subordinates, heads bowed, reported meekly, "Everyone who scored '9' or lower went."
Jia then asked, "What about their attitude?"
His subordinates remained silent, not daring to look up.
Jia slammed his hand on the table with a "bang," startling the person in his arms.
"Looks like I haven't been out and about for too long; these guys have forgotten where they are. Even that donkey Ma Hu went?"
Ma Hu was his man, and he didn't believe Ma Hu had the guts.
His subordinate swallowed hard. "Brother Donkey... he's already finished."
Jia was somewhat surprised, but quickly regained his composure. "Oh, so what if it's collapsed? Who's in charge now?"
"A little girl named Chuanliu."
"Little girl, find some men and let her know who's in charge. As for the rest... I'll deal with them one by one."
As long as even one person disagrees, the "Nine of Diamonds" cannot shake its position.
Then he made another phone call.
"Hey, I'm being targeted lately, so please don't contact me first."
"What? You don't want my goods anymore?"
"The goods are good, but the person may not be a good person. Did you spread the word about our transaction?"
"What good will it do me if word gets out? Don't forget, I'm breaking the rules to find you suppliers!"
"Alright, alright, I'm having a great time here, I'll contact you later."
"What the hell do you mean 'contact me again'?! You still haven't paid for the goods you bought from me last time..."
Beep, beep, beep.
Jia hung up the phone, only to be met with a curse on the other end.
Jia sat back down in his chair, twitched his nose, and patted his thigh to signal the beautiful woman to sit down.
The latter, as was his habit, took out a roll of paper containing white powder and handed it to the man.
With each breath, the man's restlessness subsided, his brows relaxed, and his whole body felt light, as if he had forgotten all the unpleasantness that had just occurred to him.
The conflict between "Square 9" and "Square 10" gave Chuanliu a preliminary understanding of the higher-ups in Paradise Island's color scheme.
Just as her recent survey found, people with a score of 10 or higher are in completely different tiers from those with a score below 10.
"High-level".
That's what they call it.
If only by becoming a "high-level" person can one access people at higher levels and all possible "Jokers," then it would be incredibly difficult for her to rise step by step.
There's also "10 of Diamonds," which I've never dealt with before.
As a newcomer, there's a high chance you'll be the first one targeted by "Square 10".
With that in mind, Chuanliu dialed a number.
"Hello? Is this Fang Ming?"
"The river? That's me."
It was already late when Wu Fangming was woken up by the ringing of the phone; his voice was still hoarse.
Chuanliu: "Brother Fangming, I want to ask, the suspect you mentioned last time who assassinated the former 'Ten of Spades,' is it 'Nine of Spades'?"
Wu Fangming: "Hmm. Why did you suddenly think of asking this?"
It seems that "9 of Spades" wanted to take over by force, but unexpectedly gave Wu Fangming, who had just arrived on the island, the opportunity.
Chuanliu: "Then you need to be careful. We've encountered a similar problem here recently, and judging from the current situation, things are going to get quite chaotic."
Wu Fangming asked with some concern, "Do you need me to come and help you?"
Chuanliu feigned a relaxed attitude, saying, "It's okay, I can handle it."
After hanging up the phone, Chuanliu knew he had achieved his goal.
