Zuo Xianglong was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter: "Boss, you really went to great lengths!"
"I have always respected my rivals."
Scarface chuckled mockingly, "That Qin Nan guy, he's giving up a great empire, and insists on listening to Wang Qian, this college student's bizarre advice. Isn't he just courting disaster?"
“Speaking of Wang Qian, isn’t he in business? He might be very rich!” Zuo Xianglong said meaningfully.
"What do you want to do?" Scarface asked.
"Isn't it a waste to just kill this kind of big boss?"
Zuo Xianglong said with a half-smile, "If we could squeeze every last drop of his wealth out of him before killing him, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?"
"You're so smart, second brother!"
Scarface cast an approving glance at him. "We really need to make good use of Wang Qian. Otherwise, if he dies like this, wouldn't his assets just benefit his family?"
"So, boss, what are you planning to do?" Zuo Xianglong asked curiously.
Scarface Pao pondered for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said thoughtfully, "Taking Wang Qian down directly and forcing him to hand over the money would most likely alert the police. Although we have people within the police force, if things escalate, it won't be good for us either, so..."
He took a deep breath and said, "If we can find some leverage over Wang Qian and force him to comply, that would be the best course of action."
"Is it something that's incriminating against Wang Qian?"
Zuo Xianglong thought for a moment, and a fanatical glint suddenly appeared in his sinister eyes. "I heard that Wang Qian is already married and has children. If we can kidnap his wife and children, wouldn't your plan be able to be realized smoothly, boss?"
"Great idea!"
Scarface clapped his hands, his face full of eagerness. "Hehe, wives and children are definitely the biggest weakness of most men in the world. As long as Wang Qian's wife and children are in our hands, he will be meat on our chopping board."
...
Time flies.
Two days later, when Wang Qian went out for a stroll out of boredom, a suspicious-looking person called out to him from a nearby alley.
"Hey, Brother Qian, look here!"
Turning his head, Wang Qian immediately raised an eyebrow. "Ruan Chengjin? Is that you?"
Judging from the voice alone, he felt it must be Ruan Chengjin.
However, the man was now bruised and swollen, quite different from the skinny and sleazy Ruan Chengjin he remembered.
"Brother Qian, it's me!"
The young man waved to him, then glanced around warily. Seeing that no one had noticed him, he lowered his voice and urged, "Come here first, I have something to tell you."
Wang Qian walked into the alley, looked Ruan Chengjin up and down, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"
He now finally confirmed that the young man in front of him was indeed Ruan Chengjin.
However, the other person's face was covered in bruises, and he walked with a limp, as if he had been tortured.
"N-nothing!"
Ruan Chengjin waved his hand awkwardly and said, "Yesterday I had a little conflict with one of Scarface Pao's henchmen. We got into a fight, but I couldn't beat him, so..."
He was so embarrassed that he didn't continue speaking, and he didn't even dare to look Wang Qian in the eye.
"I see..."
Wang Qian instantly felt relieved.
However, after glancing at Ruan Chengjin again, a barely perceptible hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
This kid is lying!
The injuries on Ruan Chengjin's body did not appear to be from fighting, but rather from being tortured.
Because there were obvious marks on Ruan Chengjin's wrists, which were left from being tied up with rope.
In addition, Ruan Chengjin had cigarette burns on his left cheek. It would be impossible for him to be burned to this extent during a fight. Only when one's hands and feet are tied up and one is powerless to resist would one be at the mercy of another.
However, he didn't expose it, but calmly asked, "You suddenly came to see me, is there any progress in things?"
"Yes!"
Ruan Chengjin nodded heavily and said earnestly, "Brother Qian, I have truly lived up to your expectations this time and successfully completed the plan you assigned me."
"Oh? Tell me about it!" Wang Qian asked with great interest.
"Didn't Scarface take over the old neighborhood a few days ago?"
Ruan Chengjin seemed to have prepared his words in advance, and spoke eloquently: "As soon as we took control of the old district, they started selling drugs like crazy. They weren't familiar with that area, so I finally seized the opportunity and stole drugs from one of Zuo Xianglong's underlings."
"Of course, we couldn't find that person, so in the end we had to ask Zuo Xianglong for help."
"Zuo Xianglong has always been protective of his own, so he personally went to Scarface Pao to plead for him and also tried his best to protect that underling."
"This really angered Scarface, who said he would either lose one of his hands or find the missing drugs."
"When Scarface and Zuo Xianglong were at an impasse, I stepped in to persuade them."
"Of course, on the surface I was advising for reconciliation, but I was actually instigating it in a roundabout way."
“I said, Second Brother has always been loyal to you and would never do something like embezzling money for personal gain.”
“The more I say things like this, the angrier Scarface gets.”
"In order to protect his subordinates, Zuo Xianglong dared to challenge his authority. In a fit of anger, he announced in public that Zuo Xianglong would no longer be allowed to interfere in the drug business."
"Zuo Xianglong was also enraged and immediately led his gang of followers back to West Street."
"I heard that Zuo Xianglong is still recruiting people, preparing to take over West Street, start anew, and no longer take orders from Scarface Pao."
After saying all that in one breath, Ruan Chengjin cautiously raised his head and secretly glanced at Wang Qian, "Brother Qian, was my plan a success?"
