As a veteran, Cai Jiabing naturally has a natural liking for fellow veterans. Now the big boss opposite him not only speaks politely, but also considers himself his comrade-in-arms, which makes him unable to help but ask directly:
"Oh! From what you said, sir, you were also a soldier and fought against the Japanese?"
When Qi Qingshan heard what this guy said, he obviously wanted to test Fang Lang's identity. He frowned and immediately stepped forward, wanting to teach this ignorant guy a lesson.
Fang Lang smiled and waved his hand, signaling Qi Qingshan not to make a big fuss, and continued to speak nonchalantly:
"Yes, I was also a private, but I originally fought against the Germans in the European battlefield. After the Germans surrendered, I was transferred to the Pacific War. I originally thought that I would have a chance to fight against Xiao Rizi.
I didn’t expect Xiao Rizi to surrender directly.”
When Brother Bing heard that Fang Lang was also a former soldier, he immediately felt more at home, and wanted to talk a little more about the glorious past to get closer to him. However, Fang Lang did not give him the opportunity, and instead said as if he suddenly remembered something:
"By the way, what's the matter with you coming over here?"
After these words were spoken, Brother Bing, who had just been somewhat excited, was instantly brought back to his original state. At this moment, he remembered his situation. The big boss opposite him was not an ordinary passerby and had no time to chat with him about the glorious past.
...
...
He immediately raised his buttocks that had just sat down, took two steps back, bowed to Fang Lang and said:
"Hello, sir. We, the Fourteen K, didn't know you were having supper here today, so we started a fight in front of you, ruining your supper. I came here to apologize to you. Please forgive me and don't bother with us, you rude people."
Hearing this, Fang Lang looked up and down at this self-proclaimed rough guy with a half-smile, and said without comment:
"You mean, you came here to apologize?"
Brother Bing bowed all the way but didn't raise his head or stand up. In his opinion, an apology must be sincere, and no matter whether the other party believes it or not, he must show his sincerity.
Hearing Fang Lang's question, he did not stand up, but continued to bend over and said:
"Yes, I only noticed you when the brothers below started fighting. At that time, I told my brothers not to disturb your fun. As soon as the fight was over, I came over to apologize to you."
"So you have good intentions. What about that young man over there?"
Fang Lang spoke in a flat tone. Brother Bing, who was bowing, couldn't see the expression on his face, but he could understand that he was asking about that bastard Haozi.
At this moment, he couldn't help but greet all of Haozi's eighteen generations of female relatives in his heart, wishing he could just stuff them back into their mother's womb and remake them.
"Sir, this is really an accident. We didn't expect this bastard to go out with a gun. But please believe me, we have absolutely no ill intentions."
"Oh! Do you dare to make a guarantee for him?"
Brother Bing, who was already feeling a little overwhelmed by Fang Lang's question and could only explain sincerely, stood still for a moment when he heard Fang Lang's question.
How could he dare to make a guarantee for the other party in such a matter! He was not the worm in the other party's stomach, and he was not sure whether the other party was really negligent or did it on purpose.
If he impulsively vouched for the other party, and the other party found out that Haozi did it on purpose, then he and the 14K behind him would have to be held responsible for the incident, which could be a disaster for the entire 14K. He was unwilling to take this risk.
But Haozi was brought here by him, and he is also a younger brother of the 14K. In fact, the 14K cannot get rid of any relationship with what the other party does.
So, for a moment he was a little troubled and didn't know how to answer this question.
“This…this…”
Seeing Brother Bing's embarrassment, Fang Lang seemed to have expected it. He looked up at Qi Qingshan and said:
"Since Mr. Cai doesn't dare to guarantee him, let's just get rid of him!"
Qi Qingshan nodded upon hearing this, turned around and gestured to the guard who was holding Haozi down. Seeing this, the guard who was aiming at Haozi lowered the muzzle of his gun without saying a word and pointed it at Haozi's head at close range, then pulled the trigger with a "bang".
The sudden gunshot startled Brother Bing, who was bowing his head. Fortunately, he did not feel any pain, so he breathed a sigh of relief. He already had some guesses about the gunshot.
But he didn't dare turn around to look, for fear of causing misunderstanding from the ruthless boss in front of him.
The group of 14K brothers who were surrounded not far away were also frightened by the sudden gunshots. If they had not surrendered before, they might have jumped out to resist.
But now that they have chosen to surrender, surrounded by a group of gunmen, they no longer dare to think of resisting.
Fatty Ming squatted in the crowd and secretly glanced at Haozi who was shot to death without offering any resistance. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and then a smile appeared.
He had been fed up with this arrogant guy for a long time. The reason why he told Brother Bing to bring Haozi to meet the big boss today was to see if there was a chance for this bastard Haozi to offend the big boss. By then, the boss's boss might just deal with this bastard in order to appease the big boss's anger.
But what he didn't expect was that the development of the situation was completely out of his control. The strength of this big boss was far beyond his expectations. The territory that had been occupied by them was surrounded by a group of fully armed soldiers with submachine guns before they could clean up.
They didn't even have time to react, and they didn't know whether they could keep the territory after tonight, whether this operation was successful, and whether they would be executed mercilessly like Haozi.
As for why Haozi was executed and whether his boss would be in danger, he could no longer care about them now.
The reason why Fang Lang had the young man executed without hesitation was very simple. It was not because he liked killing people, but because he had previously felt deep malice from the young man, and later found a pistol on him. This situation was obviously a dangerous signal.
He would not allow such a security risk to remain, so he ordered the young man to be executed without hesitation.
Of course, he didn't care whether his method would be seen as a means of killing a chicken to scare the monkey. With his current status and identity, he didn't need to use these methods to deal with a gang in Hong Kong. He did this just because he was in a good mood.
As for what others will think or how they interpret it, he doesn't care at all.
"Mr. Cai, you shouldn't mind. I'll clean up the mess for you 14K!"
Fang Lang's tone was calm, and he did not show any emotion at all because his order just now resulted in the loss of a life.
After hearing Fang Lang's words, Cai Jiabing dared not express any dissatisfaction. His waist, which had not been straightened up, bent even lower.
He kept saying:
"We dare not, we dare not. This bastard has hidden weapons and is plotting something bad. It is only natural for you to execute him. We absolutely dare not have any complaints."
As he said this, cold sweat the size of beans could not help but seep out of Brother Bing's forehead. He thought to himself that it was dangerous. This seemingly amiable young man in front of him was actually a man of ruthless and murderous character. He must be careful in dealing with him.
Otherwise, if he was not careful, all of his gang would be killed here today. As for whether the police would come to rescue them, he didn't even dare to think about it. He knew too well the morality of the Hong Kong City police.
The police probably wouldn't have enough time to curry favor with such a big shot, so how could they possibly offend such a big boss just because of a scoundrel like themselves?
What's more, would a person without any support dare to shoot and kill people without scruples in Hong Kong City with fully armed bodyguards?
This behavior of the other party only shows that they are fearless and the Hong Kong City police have no way to deal with them.
Fang Lang couldn't help but smile when he saw that this guy had a really good attitude in admitting his mistake.
"Okay, Mr. Cai, don't be nervous. Since you really come here to apologize sincerely, then sit down and talk!
To be honest, I have no interest in your hack-and-slash actions for territory. I'm just watching for fun.
But this friend next to me is very dissatisfied with your behavior today, you should think about how to appease my friend's dissatisfaction!"
Hearing Fang Lang's tone soften, Brother Bing breathed a sigh of relief and slowly straightened up. But after hearing the second half of Fang Lang's words, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, and his eyes involuntarily looked at the young white man sitting next to Fang Lang.
He had heard the man speak just now, but he was speaking English, so he couldn't understand what he was saying. But he had to believe Fang Lang's words, because Fang Lang had no reason to lie to him.
Since the other party said that this foreigner was very dissatisfied with their behavior, it was obviously not without purpose, but he really had no experience in dealing with foreigners. After a little thought, he could only look at Fang Lang with a pleading look and said:
"Sir, I wonder who this friend of yours is? What can we do to dispel his dissatisfaction?"
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, who was asking for help with a tentative look, Fang Lang smiled slightly and waved his hand nonchalantly:
"You will know who this gentleman is sooner or later. As for how to eliminate his dissatisfaction, you shouldn't ask me. Besides, this matter is not something you can solve.
The reason I say this to you is because we are all Chinese and I want to remind you that you need to be prepared. "
Fang Lang just said that they should be prepared, but he didn't say what they should be prepared for. This made Cai Jiabing a little confused for a while.
But he also understood that if the person in front of him didn't want to talk more, it would be inappropriate for him to continue asking questions. If he caused the other party to be disgusted, he would definitely suffer the consequences.
"Thank you for your reminder, I am grateful!"
"Okay, before the Hongcheng police arrive, tell me more about the situation on your Hongcheng Road, so that I can learn more."
Fang Lang's knowledge of Hong Kong's gangsters mostly came from movies, TV shows and novels. To be honest, he was quite curious about how Hong Kong had so many gangsters and how the economy was developing so well. Now that he had the opportunity to meet a real Hong Kong gangster, he certainly wanted to learn more about this special group of people.
Of course, this was purely out of curiosity. From the beginning to the end, he never thought of using this group of people to help transport supplies to his hometown.
Because these guys have no conscience at all. Although some gangs in Hong Kong City have transported materials to their hometown through smuggling in the past, most of these materials are counterfeit and inferior products. Not only did they not provide much help to their hometown, but they also greatly wasted the limited funds of their hometown.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that the Kuomintang intelligence department is behind these guys. Most of their actions are instigated by the Kuomintang behind the scenes.
Moreover, Fang Lang did not want these guys with a Military Control Commission background to link him to his hometown. If the Nationalist government reported this matter to the Americans, he would be in a very passive position in their eyes, and his competitors in the United States might even seize the opportunity.
