"Hey, what's going on? So many people... are they going to fight?"
"Perfect timing. If you want to fight, go outside and fight. Otherwise, you'll be standing here and delaying my business. Otherwise, I'll have to have someone clear the area."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men in black rushed in from outside. There were twenty men in total, each holding a standard rifle from the local Chinese military. They looked indifferent, capable, and serious. Apart from their civilian clothes, they seemed to be covered in labels.
This is a group of soldiers. And at least the elite local troops.
After the man in black came in, three more people came in from outside.
The young man in the center was wearing a clearly custom-made Western-style shirt, which looked very expensive, but he looked lazy and had a faint, nonchalant smile on his face. If you ignored his shrewd and reserved eyes, the man would look like a spoiled brat.
Behind the young man followed closely behind. One of them had a steady gait and a solemn expression, clearly a master among masters. The other, also with a serious yet submissive expression, looked somewhat like a steward of a wealthy family before the new policies were implemented.
James was the director of Daniel's company in Xichuan, so he naturally knew the prominent figures in Xichuan Province. He looked wary as he saw the young man walking towards them.
The young man's name was Wang Mingquan, the youngest son of Wang Fuyu, a high-ranking official in Sichuan Province. On the surface, he always presented himself as a rebellious and dissolute playboy.
Upon seeing James, he exclaimed with a look of 'surprise', "Oh my, who is it that runs faster than me? I didn't expect it to be Mr. James. Hello, hello, Mr. James, it's been so long, I didn't expect to meet you here. In our Chinese saying, this is what is called meeting an old friend in a foreign land, we should drink a big cup of wine!"
Then, as if afraid that James wouldn't understand, she explained, "Oh, it just means it's worth having a drink. Mr. James, do you understand?"
After saying that, without waiting for James to reply, he directly ordered the butler-like man: "Uncle Fu, quick, have someone bring over the wine I got from the old man. Mr. James and I will have a drink together."
As she spoke, Liza Wang winked at James. She lowered her voice and said to James, "It's stolen, my old man's treasure. I think it was a gift from your M country's Vice President Du something to our country when he visited. He's never been willing to drink it, so I got it out. It just so happens that we meet Mr. James today. Good wine and good friend, let's have a good drink together later."
As she spoke, Liza Wang looked at Yun Dazheng and Yun Duo, and said arrogantly, "Hey old man, oh, which little girl is going to go and have your family prepare some good dishes for us? Oh well, you country folk probably don't have much good stuff, so just make do with what you have. Make sure it's clean and tastes good, and you'll get your money back." With that, she pulled out a small stack of banknotes from her pocket and slapped them in front of Yun Dazheng.
Finally, he pointed to the stone table, to the few banknotes that James had taken out and placed on his left side, which he hadn't yet offered to Yun Dazheng, and asked, "Who put this money here? Is it Mr. James's?"
