When the gamblers outside realized things were going badly, they grabbed their money and ran away.
When the smugglers saw their brother being kicked away, they surrounded Qin Yu.
Qin Yu stepped forward and delivered a swift side kick, showing no mercy. In just a few moves, he knocked down the people who surrounded him; they were no match for him at all.
Seeing his brothers fall to the ground one by one, the other underlings, seeing this, surrounded Qin Yu and dared not rush forward rashly.
Xu Li followed Qin Yu out and saw that Qin Yu was surrounded. He frowned and waved his hand. Xu Li's men saw this action and went forward to fight with the people who were blocking Qin Yu.
Xu Li's men all seemed to harbor old grudges, and they were ruthless when they attacked, indicating that the two sides had a long-standing feud.
“These people don’t need your help yet,” Xu Li smiled at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu glanced coldly at the underling he had kicked down.
The underling fell to the ground, clutching his chest and groaning in pain. Sensing Qin Yu's gaze, he lowered his head in fear.
Before long, the snakehead's men were all pinned to the ground, beaten black and blue.
"Shut this place down. There will be no more gambling or prostitution in the county town," Qin Yu said coldly.
Xu Li was stunned. Last time, he sensed that Qin Yu seemed to dislike these two businesses, but he didn't expect Qin Yu to directly announce that they couldn't do them.
"Master Qin, are these the two most profitable businesses?" Xu Li glanced at Qin Yu and asked in a low voice.
"Don't you feel guilty about spending this money?" Qin Yu glanced at Xu Li.
Upon hearing this, Xu Li froze, opened her mouth, but did not refute Qin Yu's decision.
"You have to earn money in a way that you can live with a clear conscience, so you can spend it without feeling guilty." Qin Yu took two steps forward, and everyone else took two steps back.
"Master Qin."
Qin Yu ignored these people and walked straight out. Xu Li quickly followed him.
"Using me to kill someone else." Qin Yu took a few steps outside, saw Xu Li chasing after him, and punched Xu Li in the stomach.
"I'm sorry." Xu Li clutched her stomach and knelt on the ground in pain, her face pale as she said to Qin Yu.
"You clearly have the strength to take over Qinglong's territory, yet you're hesitant and timid?" Qin Yu glanced coldly at Xu Li.
“I only have these brothers, but no goods, so I can’t do this kind of business.” Xu Li was silent for a long time before speaking seriously to Qin Yu.
"You have the goods, so I want to follow you."
"You're willing, but are they?" Qin Yu glanced coldly at Xu Li. "Your petty scheming is laughable."
"Why should I support so many people for you?"
Xu Li looked up at Qin Yu. "They will listen to you."
“They listen to you, Xu Li. You’ve got a good plan, but it won’t work on me.” Qin Yu looked at Xu Li.
"Do you think I would care about these things from Qinglong?"
“I know you look down on Qinglong’s stuff.” Xu Li knew how much stuff Qin Yu had in his hands, otherwise Qinglong wouldn’t have tried to steal his goods.
Although Xu Li didn't know how Qin Yu did it, even the most clueless person would know from seeing those goods that Qin Yu, who could get his hands on them, was definitely not simple.
He wanted to follow Qin Yu because he knew Qin Yu could definitely help him make money.
“You should hire someone from the transport team to transport your goods. Don’t trust Wang Jianguo. He was threatened by Qinglong a few times and then handed your goods over to Qinglong,” Xu Li said to Qin Yu.
"Continue." A hint of interest flashed in Qin Yu's eyes, signaling Xu Li to continue.
“I have several brothers in the transport team. If you want to transport goods, I can help you. I only have one condition: you have to take us with you. We brothers are all struggling to make a living…” Xu Li said sincerely to Qin Yu.
"I have people, you have goods. Give us a chance, you won't regret it," Xu Li pleaded with Qin Yu.
Upon hearing Xu Li's words, Qin Yu noticed that Xu Li's brothers had all come over and stood behind him, looking at Qin Yu.
"Master Qin, if you tell us to go east, we'll go east; if you tell us to go west, we'll go west..."
"Master Qin, we really want to work for you!"
"Master Qin, please accept us!"
"..."
Xu Li knelt down on one knee in front of Qin Yu, and his brothers behind him immediately followed suit.
"Mr. Qin, please, my mother is sick, and the doctor says she needs surgery. I really need money..." A man looked at Qin Yu with pleading eyes, his voice choked with sobs.
Qin Yu looked at the men kneeling in front of him; their faces were etched with pain and hardship from the hardships of life.
If they didn't really need the money, they wouldn't have chosen to risk going to jail to do these things. It's because of their families, their wives and children; they are the pillars of their families and have to shoulder the responsibility.
Qin Yu looked at the people kneeling in front of him and remained silent for a long time.
When everyone had given up hope, Qin Yu spoke up. "A shipment needs to be sent out in two days, and I need a truck."
Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Xu Li immediately looked up at Qin Yu with delight, then turned to his brother and called out, "Old Ma."
"I'm here!" One of them immediately stood up and walked up to Qin Yu.
"Master Qin, my name is Ma Zhiming. I work in the first transport team and have been driving for three years," Ma Zhiming said to Qin Yu.
"What kind of car?" Qin Yu asked.
“Big card,” Ma Zhiming said immediately.
“I need at least three more people to help unload the goods,” Qin Yu nodded, then said to Xu Li. “They need to be somewhat skilled in combat.”
“I’ll go for one! There are still two left…” Xu Li nodded and looked at his brother.
"Brother Xu, let me go!"
"I!"
Many people raised their hands to volunteer.
"Liu Yi, Xu Zhiqiang." Xu Li picked out two people.
The two walked up to Qin Yu, who extended his hand to them. They hesitated for a moment, then grasped Qin Yu's hand and squeezed it at his signal.
After testing the strength of the two men, Qin Yu nodded.
"You're the ones!"
Qin Yu exerted a little force, and the two men's expressions changed, and they quickly withdrew their hands.
The moment Qin Yu exerted force, they almost thought their hands were going to be ruined.
"Meet at midnight two days from now."
After Qin Yu finished speaking, he glanced indifferently at Xu Li and then turned and left.
"Take care, Mr. Qin."
After Qin Yu left, Xu Li looked at the remaining brothers and comforted them, "You weren't chosen by Master Qin this time, but there will be other opportunities in the future."
"Brother Xu, why do you trust him so much?" someone asked.
"No matter how strong Qinglong is, he's just a local thug who steals territory and collects protection money on the black market," Xu Li said seriously as he looked at them.
“He’s different. He never took a liking to Qinglong’s stuff from beginning to end. He crippled the snake’s head and forbade gambling and the meat business. So how do you think he makes money?” Xu Li’s words made everyone fall into deep thought.
Xu Li didn't explain it clearly, but he sensed a different kind of radiance in Qin Yu.
Although he is cold and ruthless, he doesn't gamble or sell meat, and he doesn't rely on protection money. He is different from Qinglong and the snakehead.
