Chapter 181: Ji Qingniu Gang is destroyed, and the Wan family discusses the next plan
"Big news, big news. The Green Ox Gang was wiped out by the Golden Axe Gang and the Cheetah Sect last night. Everyone come out and see. The leader of the Green Ox Gang was stripped naked and hung at the entrance of the town!"
Wan Laosi's hand, which was wiping the table, paused, his heart churning. He immediately leaned over the crack in the door and looked out carefully.
At this time, the same shout was heard again.
This time, Wan Laosi couldn't bear it any longer. He directly opened the door of the shop, stepped over the threshold and ran out.
The streets were already crowded with people, and the shop owners and clerks in each shop were opening their shop doors and asking people on the street for news.
Wan Laosi didn't even have time to put down the rag in his hand before running forward. There was a group of people gathered there asking the person who had just shouted for information.
"You just said that the Green Ox Gang is gone? Are you lying? The Green Ox Gang is the same as the Golden Axe Gang. How could the Golden Axe Gang destroy the Green Ox Gang?"
"That's right. Boss Ji of the Green Ox Gang is no pushover. Although his subordinates are not as strictly managed as those of the Golden Axe Gang, they are not weak either. How can they just disappear like that?"
"Oh, if you don't believe me, you can go to the town entrance and take a look. Boss Ji has been stripped naked and dropped under a big tree at the town entrance. There are many people around him. I heard that the Green Ox Gang caught fire last night. The gang was already in chaos. The Golden Axe Gang and the Cheetah Sect teamed up and caught the Green Ox Gang off guard. Didn't they succeed?"
"Oh my God, go, go, go, go, hurry up and take a look. This is the biggest thing I have ever heard of in all the years I have lived at the border. If the Qingniu Gang is gone, the area within hundreds of miles will be peaceful."
Wan Laosi understood everything clearly this time. He wanted to follow everyone to the town entrance to watch the excitement, but then he thought that his family didn't know the good news yet, so he turned around and ran towards the shop.
Wan Laosi ran back panting and bumped into his wife who was walking out.
"Boss, what are you doing? Mother said that we won't open the shop today. How dare you open the shop? Are you trying to save your life?"
When Liu came out, she was shocked to see the shop door wide open and Wan Lao Si was nowhere to be seen. She didn't want her child to lose sight of his father before he was born.
Wan Lao Si had an excited smile on his face at this time. He dropped the rag in his hand, held Liu's shoulders with both hands, and said loudly: "Wife, the Green Ox Gang is gone. They were destroyed by the Golden Axe Gang and the Cheetah Sect. Our family is safe, safe. I have to tell mother and eldest brother quickly. We have to open the door for business today."
Liu was shocked by what Wan Laosi said. She looked stunned. Before she could savor the news, she saw Wan Laosi running towards the backyard like a gust of wind.
Little Fubao could also feel his uncle's excitement, and like a little tail, he followed Wan Laosi to the backyard with his short legs swaying from side to side.
"Mom, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, please wake up quickly. There is good news, great news."
Wan Lao Si pushed open the room where Wan Lao Da and Wan Lao Er slept with a plop. The people in the room were still snoring.
With a look of joy on his face, Wan Lao Si stepped over the threshold, went in and shook Wan Lao Da's shoulder.
"Brother, wake up quickly, good news, get up quickly."
"Second brother, get up quickly, and third brother, don't sleep any more."
Wan Lao Si woke up his brothers one by one. Wan Lao Da sat up wrapped in a quilt, his eyes still bleary and his mind still a little unclear. He yawned and asked Wan Lao Si, "Lao Si, why are you yelling so early in the morning? Mom said that we're closing the shop today. Can you please be quiet? I'm sleepy."
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao San also wrapped themselves in quilts and leaned against each other, unable to open their eyes, and yawning continuously.
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, don't sleep any more, wake up quickly, the Green Ox Gang is gone, the news has spread all over the street, the leader Ji of the Green Ox Gang was hung naked under a big tree at the entrance of the town, our family's troubles have been solved, no one dares to cause trouble to our family anymore, we can open the shop normally."
This time, Fourth Brother Wan spoke very clearly, and the brothers instantly became sober from their confusion. Eldest Brother Wan even threw away the quilt and stood up from the kang with his bare chest.
"Fourth brother, what did you say? Is what you just said true?"
Boss Wan also became excited. As he spoke, he picked up his clothes from the kang and put them on randomly.
"It's true. I was thinking of going to the town entrance to see what's going on, but I thought you guys didn't know the good news yet, so I came back to tell you first."
"Old Four, let's go and take a look. That damned Ji Lao Da was protecting a criminal. He deserved to be put to death. He made our whole family live in fear. It's good to kill him! It's really satisfying."
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao San also hurriedly put on their clothes. The brothers didn't even bother to wipe their faces. They buttoned their clothes as they walked, and hurried out of the shop.
"Wife, you keep an eye on the shop. I'll go to the town entrance with my brothers. When mom wakes up, tell her everything is fine."
Wan Laosi hurriedly said something and rushed out of the shop following his three brothers.
The busiest one was Xiao Fubao. She finally caught up with Wan Laosi and just as she climbed over the threshold with great effort, she saw her father and several uncles walking out excitedly. When they passed by Xiao Fubao, Wan Laoer grabbed Xiao Fubao's hands, who had just climbed over the threshold with great difficulty, and pulled her out.
Wan Laoer put little Fubao in the backyard to play by himself for a while. He went to see Ji Lao Da being hanged. It was definitely not suitable to bring children there. Little Fubao didn't make a fuss. He staggered after them for a few steps, then clung to the door frame of the backyard and watched his father and several uncles walk out of the shop with his big grape-like eyes.
Several brothers from the Wan family came out of the shop and followed the crowd, jogging towards the town entrance.
A lot of people came to watch, because there is not much new in the border town. The only way for people to entertain themselves is the gambling house in the town, and gossip. A big event like the current one is enough for people in the town to gossip about for half a year. The destruction of the Green Ox Gang has provided the people in the border with half a year of gossip.
The closer we got to the town entrance, the more people there were. It was already bright in the sky, and there were also many people from the surrounding towns who were busy with spring farming and wanted to come into the town to buy farm tools, seeds, etc. Everyone gathered at the town entrance, blocking the road.
At this time, a white man was hanging high on a big poplar tree at the entrance of the town. The man was only wearing a pair of shorts, and his hands were tied up and hung above his head.
The brothers of the Wan family had never met Boss Ji, so they came here just to watch the fun.
But from listening to the discussions in the crowd, a few people got a general idea of what was going on.
"Boss Ji never dreamed that he would die like this, right? There are no wounds on his body. I guess he was hung and frozen to death, right?"
"It seems to me that since Boss Ji has so many lives to his credit and he is being hung here as a target, won't those wronged souls go crazy and come looking for revenge on him?"
"Finally, we have one less bully here. I hope our lives will be smoother in the future. If God doesn't bless us, we will also have to suffer man-made disasters. How can we live like this? Now that we have one less bully, our lives will finally be a little more peaceful in the future."
"I don't agree with what you said. Although the Green Ox Gang is a nuisance to people, it is also a nuisance to other gangs. It's just a matter of fighting for territory. Without the Green Ox Gang, there are still the Ox-Head Gang and the Dog-Head Gang. Let's wait and see. If we want to live a better life, we need the court to take action and deal with these nuisance gangs. Only then can we look forward to a better life."
"Are you going to die? What truth are you saying? Be careful if the people from the Golden Axe Gang hear you, or your head will explode."
Boss Wan glanced at his younger brothers and gave them a wink, and they struggled to squeeze out.
When they arrived at a place with fewer people, the four of them slowed down their pace, put their hands in their sleeves, and walked slowly side by side.
"It seems that the water here is very deep, but our family can live in peace in this town as long as we don't cause trouble. The biggest forces now are the Golden Axe Gang and the Cheetah Sect. Our family has a good relationship with these two gangs, so we don't have to worry too much about the future. We all work hard, and if the emperor grants amnesty one day, we can go back to Guanzhong. Now we should earn some money to support our family."
Boss Wan was thinking along the way and shared his ideas with his younger brothers.
The current situation is indeed favorable to their family. They don't have to worry about being charged protection fees. When the business opened yesterday, Shen Qinghan said in person that their family does not have to pay protection fees.
This also gave the Wan family an invisible amulet.
"Yes, what Big Brother said is right. I will take the children and mother back to the village today. I can't help much here. I will go back and open up the land quickly. It's almost time to plant the seeds. We have only opened up a few acres of land. Now that we have cattle, we can catch up with some progress. We can't waste any more time."
Boss Wan also agreed with Boss Wan's opinion.
"Okay, eldest brother will go back with you, and the affairs of this town will be handed over to the third and fourth brothers. There must be someone at home."
The brothers discussed their next plan while walking towards the shop.
