Seeing the change in Zuo Xianglong's expression, Tao Yu continued to coax him, "Second Brother, as the saying goes, haste makes waste. Wang Qian is willing to take out this million. Besides the fact that your threat was effective, he must really be interested in the business on West Street. As long as he shows enough sincerity, it's only a matter of time before he liquidates all the assets under his name."
Upon hearing this, Zuo Xianglong nodded in deep agreement, "I didn't realize you were such a thoughtful person."
"Thank you for the compliment, Second Brother!" Tao Yu quickly gave an embarrassed smile.
"Very good, keep up the good work from now on, I won't treat you unfairly!"
Reaching out, Zuo Xianglong patted Tao Yu on the shoulder. When he looked at Wang Qian again, the anger on his face had completely disappeared, replaced by a bright smile. "Mr. Wang, you're right. Cooperation does indeed require mutual trust and respect!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems my clever trick worked!
Not only did they successfully delay Zuo Xianglong's retaliatory actions, but they also had the opportunity to discover the location where the drugs were hidden.
"Since you're being so sincere, I'll definitely have to show you my sincerity too."
Zuo Xianglong walked up to Wang Qian and said, "Didn't you want to go to the site for inspection? Okay, I'll take you!"
Upon hearing this, both Wang Qian and Tao Yu were somewhat unable to contain their excitement.
After all this fuss and playing along with Zuo Xianglong for so long, are they finally going to achieve their ultimate goal?
Despite his excitement, Wang Qian didn't want to give himself away, so he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "It should have been done a long time ago. If you want me to invest more money, you have to let me see the potential first."
"Hehe, Mr. Wang is right!"
Zuo Xianglong smiled, then waved his hand, "Li Bin and Li Wang stay, everyone else can leave!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded and immediately went out.
Tao Yu was somewhat unwilling and wanted to say something to Zuo Xianglong, but Wang Qian stopped him with a look.
Tao Yu paused, and after much deliberation, he had no choice but to go out with the others.
【Bang】
With the door closed, only Wang Qian, Zuo Xianglong, Li Bin, and Li Wang remained in the private room.
"You didn't leave the drugs in this private room, did you?"
Wang Qian glanced around and tentatively asked.
Zuo Xianglong had just agreed to take me to the site for inspection.
But apart from two trusted confidants, all the other underlings were called out.
Most importantly, they closed the door.
Does that mean the drugs are hidden right here?
"Of course not here."
Zuo Xianglong smiled mysteriously, but did not explain immediately. Instead, he first put away the two briefcases containing cash, and then gave Li Bin and Li Wang, who remained behind, a wink.
The two understood each other perfectly and immediately walked to a wall to the side.
The wall was unremarkable, but Li Bin just touched it for a bit, then pressed it inwards, and a hidden door slowly opened beside it.
【Click click click】
With a mechanical sound, the hidden door opened wider and wider, and after a moment, it revealed a door that led to an unknown destination.
Let's go!
Zuo Xianglong gestured with his eyes to the hidden door and said mysteriously, "I'll take you to see it."
Wang Qian suddenly realized what was going on and quickly clapped his hands in praise, "Great trick! This is a case of the devil being right under your nose!"
Before this, both he and Tao Yu had speculated about where Scarface and Zuo Xianglong might hide the drugs.
But they never expected that it was Scarface Cannon's headquarters.
This is a karaoke bar!
In such a chaotic place with people coming and going, it's unlikely that Scarface and Zuo Xianglong could have hidden drugs here.
Unexpectedly, the other party did the opposite.
In this way, not to mention his less-trusted underlings, even if the police come, they will probably only focus on more secluded places and ignore this place.
"Wang Qian, I've already considered you one of my own before letting you go see it. You won't have any ulterior motives, will you?" Zuo Xianglong reminded him at the right time.
Wang Qian suddenly came to his senses and pointed to the two briefcases in Zuo Xianglong's hands. "The money is all here. I really want to cooperate with you, otherwise I wouldn't have brought so much money here today."
Zuo Xianglong thought about it and realized that it really was true.
If Wang Qian weren't so stupid, he would have disappeared with his family today, and he would never have brought so much cash to our door.
"Alright, let's go in quickly!"
Zuo Xianglong urged, "There are many secrets inside. I'll show you in a bit!"
As he spoke, he was the first to walk into the hidden door.
As for Li Bin and Li Wang, they each pulled out a pistol and intentionally or unintentionally surrounded Wang Qian on both sides, their intentions were all too clear.
"Hey, Brother Zuo, you still don't trust me, do you?"
Wang Qian joked, "We're partners now, why are you even wary of me?"
“If I still considered you an outsider, I would never let you know about this place.”
Zuo Xianglong glanced back at Wang Qian, tossed his chin, and said, "Stop talking nonsense and come in quickly."
"good!"
Wang Qian nodded and hurriedly followed.
Li Bin and Li Wang quickly followed behind him.
As the four entered the hidden door, the mechanical sound resumed.
Looking back, the hidden door quickly closed, blocking out all the light from outside.
Wang Qian instantly felt as if he had fallen into an endless darkness, where he couldn't see his own hand in front of his face.
"Turn on the lights!"
It was Zuo Xianglong's voice.
The next moment, with a "click," a bright light suddenly appeared, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
Wang Qian was puzzled. There shouldn't be voice-activated switches in this era, right?
How come the lights turn on as soon as Zuo Xianglong says "turn on the lights"?
While surprised, he quickly looked around.
This is a platform.
In front of the platform is a spiral staircase that extends downwards, its destination unknown, with only a series of steps visible.
"Follow me!"
Zuo Xianglong took the lead and went down the stairs.
Although Wang Qian was full of suspicion, he still followed.
When they entered the next floor, Wang Qian finally understood.
There was a person standing on the lower level, and the light switch was right next to him.
This person's only job is to turn the lights on and off.
What shocked him even more was that, in addition to the downward-extending staircase, there was a long passage, at least a hundred meters long. After reaching the end, it turned left again and went forward for about fifty meters before arriving at a tightly closed iron gate.
"This is it!"
Zuo Xianglong turned and glanced at Wang Qian, his face full of a secret smile.
He put down the two suitcases he was carrying and knocked on the door five times rhythmically.
[Knock knock knock knock]
These five strikes, varying in intensity and time intervals, look like a secret code.
Wang Qian pretended to be calm on the surface, but he wrote down every detail.
[Click]
The sound of a bolt being bolted came from the other side of the iron gate.
The next moment, the iron gate opened, and a blinding light entered Wang Qian's eyes.
