Chen Ze carried the frail little girl into the ambulance, with several bodyguards following behind.
Shortly after, the ambulance returned to the hospital, and Chen Ze went to the payment counter to pay. The treatment and hospitalization costs amounted to 30,000 yuan.
He then went outside the treatment room to wait and saw the little girl still eating the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), enjoying it immensely, her mouth full of oil.
"Little Taoying, is it delicious?"
"It's delicious and very fragrant."
Chen Ze took out ten yuan and gave it to Zhao Youde, instructing him, "Go and buy a bottle of water."
Zhao Youde took the money and quickly bought a bottle of water.
Chen Ze took the water, unscrewed the cap, and handed it to the little girl: "Eat slowly, drink some water, don't choke."
The little girl took the water, drank a small sip, and then continued eating her roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).
At that moment, the doctor came out of the treatment room.
Chen Ze quickly stepped forward and asked, "Doctor, how is the child's mother?"
The doctor removed his mask and said, "The patient's condition is not optimistic. Long-term malnutrition and overwork have caused multiple illnesses, and he needs to be hospitalized for a period of time."
Chen Ze frowned: "As long as it can cure her, no amount of money is a problem."
The doctor nodded: "Don't worry, we will do our best."
Chen Ze sat down next to the little girl and gently patted her head: "Little Taoying, don't worry, Mommy will get better."
The little girl looked up, tears welling in her eyes: "Uncle, thank you."
Chen Ze felt a pang of sadness: "Honey, as long as you're both alright, that's all that matters. You take care of your mother at the hospital. I have to go out for a bit, I'll come see you again when I have time."
"Yes, Uncle, I will take care of Mom."
Chen Ze took out 2,000 yuan in cash and handed it to her: "Take this money, you can buy some fruit for your mother."
After explaining everything, Chen Ze left with his bodyguards.
Walking to the side of the road, he thought about how to deal with the Scorpion Gang. He couldn't do it by himself; he needed to find a helper. After thinking for a few minutes, it seemed that the only person he knew around here was Young Master Zhao.
So he took out his phone and called Young Master Zhao.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, wanna come out for a meal?"
On the other end of the phone: "Brother Chen, I'd be happy to treat you to dinner, but I'm a rather picky eater."
Chen Ze chuckled: "Then... how about we eat at the Peace Hotel? Does that place suit your taste?"
"Alright, Brother Chen, you go ahead first. I'll come over once I've finished calculating the bill."
Upon receiving Zhao Gongzi's invitation, Chen Ze immediately rushed to the Peace Hotel to book a private room.
Not long after, Young Master Zhao arrived late, apologetic, with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry I'm late."
Chen Ze stood up and shook hands with him, smiling slightly: "It's okay, I'm not very hungry either."
After the two were seated, Chen Ze clapped his hands.
The waiter immediately came in.
Chen Ze instructed, "The dishes can be served now."
"Yes, sir, I'll arrange it right away."
The dishes were served quickly. After a few rounds of drinks, Chen Ze put down his chopsticks and said to Young Master Zhao with a serious expression, "Young Master Zhao, the main reason I asked you to come here today is to ask you for a favor."
"Brother Chen, just tell me, and I'll do my best to help."
Chen Ze then recounted how the Scorpion Gang had bullied the little girl and her mother, adding at the end, "If this evil force is not eliminated, I'm afraid even more innocent people will suffer."
Upon hearing this, Young Master Zhao frowned and fell into deep thought.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "Brother Chen, the Scorpion Gang is not to be trifled with. They have been entrenched in Xingfu Village in the western suburbs for many years, and their influence is complex and intertwined. These people are very difficult to deal with."
"Young Master Zhao, if you can help me eliminate them, I can give you a portion of the profits."
Upon hearing that there was profit involved, Young Master Zhao finally smiled: "Brother Chen, I'm not a savior. You know we businessmen are all about profit."
You have to understand that it's a gang, not some petty thug. No one would provoke a gang without some kind of profit to be made.
Chen Ze smiled confidently, leaned closer and whispered, "Don't worry, Young Master Zhao, the profit will definitely be over 300 million. Do you think this price is enough?"
Over 300 million? Young Master Zhao's eyes lit up. He only began to explain after hearing this price.
"The leader of the Scorpion Gang is Black Scorpion, and the second-in-command is Jin Chuanbao. Both of them are ruthless. They each have their own subordinates. On the surface, they seem to get along very well, but that's not the case. In secret, Jin Chuanbao doesn't submit to Scorpion at all."
Chen Ze asked, "Is there any way to turn their two leaders against each other?"
Young Master Zhao smiled slightly and said confidently, "That's easy. As long as they don't divide the spoils equally, they'll definitely fall out."
Chen Ze's eyes lit up: "Brilliant, brilliant! I'll plant bodyguards in there and supply them with fire."
Young Master Zhao lowered his voice: "I can help you gather some intelligence about the Scorpion Gang and find the key points of their conflicts. Then, you can find a way to win over some people who can be used by us."
Chen Ze clenched his fist: "Okay, help me win over a few people, and I'll figure out a way to plant bodyguards in there."
The next day, Young Master Zhao used his connections and resources to secretly gather internal intelligence about the Scorpion Gang.
Chen Ze then placed Zeng Bojian into the Scorpion Gang.
With his outstanding skills and quick wit, Zeng Bojian quickly gained the trust of some of the henchmen in the Scorpion Gang.
However, the Scorpion Gang has a strict hierarchy, making it difficult for Zeng Bojian to access core secrets.
In order to obtain more intelligence, Zeng Bojian had to carefully cater to the preferences of the gang members, drinking and gambling with them, and even participating in some small-scale fights.
On one occasion, Zeng Bojian almost exposed his identity by refusing to participate in an illegal transaction. Fortunately, he quickly came up with a convincing reason and managed to get away with it.
During his time in the gang, Zeng Bojian remained vigilant at all times, never daring to relax his guard. He silently collected evidence of the Scorpion Gang's crimes, as well as the whereabouts and weaknesses of its various leaders.
Meanwhile, Chen Ze was anxiously waiting outside for news from Zeng Bojian, making meticulous plans for the final operation.
Chen Ze pondered the situation in his hotel room and decided that waiting indefinitely was not a solution. Since he couldn't find any evidence for the time being, he could create conflict between the two gang leaders.
He paced back and forth in the room.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into my mind: to get involved myself.
Thinking of this, Chen Ze called Young Master Zhao and asked him to help withdraw 15 million yuan in cash from the bank the next day.
Young Master Zhao readily agreed.
The next day, in a three-story building in Xingfu Village, Scorpion and Jin Chuanbao and their brothers were playing poker.
Jin Chuanbao, having lost seven hands in a row due to bad luck, slammed his fist on the table in anger and shouted, "Scorpion, are you cheating? My cards have always been bad, there's no reason for this!"
Scorpion said irritably, "Jin Chuanbao, are you a sore loser? If you really can't handle losing, then don't play. Nobody's forcing you to play."
"you……"
