C211 A Dangerous Fire



C211 A Dangerous Fire

I picked up the teacup and took a sip, then my expression immediately turned serious. "Old Meng, I've received news that the city will be reorganizing all the entertainment venues soon."    

    

"I know about that."    

    

When Sir Meng heard this, he smiled amiably.    

    

I had guessed long ago that he knew about the beatings, but even so, I had to tell him. It was a matter of attitude.    

    

"Then, there is another piece of news that you might not know about. The one behind this is me."    

    

I said with a mysterious smile.    

    

Sir Meng's eyes suddenly lit up, and a surprised look appeared on his face. He said nothing, as if he was waiting for me to continue.    

    

I took out Cao Jin's promissory note and placed it in front of Elder Meng. "Today I have come for public and private reasons. Which one do you want to hear first?"    

    

"Then let's talk business first."    

    

Elder Meng revealed a funny expression.    

    

"Wealth comes from danger. I plan to take action during a severe fight. What do you think?"    

    

"Brat, I've really underestimated you. I never thought that you would have this kind of courage. Have you thought that if you were to make a mistake, you will fall into it?"    

    

Sir Meng's expression was one of admiration, but he still reminded me of something.    

    

"But if it succeeds, then the entire Qingjiang district will belong to us."    

    

I clenched my fists and said confidently.    

    

"This is a gamble." Old Meng muttered to himself.    

    

"No, I've never fought a battle without confidence, and I don't like to bet on victory or defeat. I must win."    

    

When I said this, I was excited.    

    

"I quite appreciate this confidence."    

    

"Sir Meng, as long as we plan carefully, taking down the Qingjiang district is not impossible. If we don't act, then we will see the results."    

    

"Kid, you have quite the spirit as I was back then. It's good that you're young."    

    

Old Meng sighed and then said, "If you want to do it, then do it. At a young age, you have to have this kind of madness."    

    

"At that time, if Guo Jinhai and Boss Zhu want to make a move, you'd better stop them."    

    

Hearing Elder Meng's praise, I felt elated in my heart.    

    

"Just be careful, don't get caught. Now let's talk about your private matters."    

    

Elder Meng seemed a little curious.    

    

"This is my promissory note for personal matters. I've long heard that Viper would have a debt that he doesn't want to pay. I've devoted my entire heart and soul to the business in the northern suburbs, and I really don't have time to ask for payment. I hope Elder Meng can accept this."    

    

I stood up, cupped my hands in front of me, and bowed slightly.    

    

"I have a feeling that I'm being 'forced' into a corner."    

    

Old Meng's eyes narrowed and a cold light flashed. He continued, "Viper always does things by his heart. If he isn't happy, even if you put a hundred million in front of me, I wouldn't be moved."    

    

My heart skipped a beat as I thought back to what I said just now. It was indeed a little inappropriate.    

    

"Old Meng, you gave me the feeling of an elder, like a parent, making me feel closer to you. Maybe it's because of this that I'm so proud of myself." Old Meng, you gave me the feeling of an elder, like a parent, and made me feel closer to you.    

    

My expression turned serious and I hurriedly bowed to explain.    

    

Elder Meng didn't say anything. His eyes glinted coldly as he looked at me for about five to six seconds.    

    

In those few seconds, my back clothes seemed to be soaked through, and I was very nervous.    

    

"Tell me honestly, how did you get this promissory note?"    

    

Sir Meng glanced at the bloody handprint on the promissory note.    

    

"If people don't offend me, then I won't offend them. The tyrant of the northern city, Cao Jin, has gone too far. I'll take care of his nest."    

    

I didn't hide anything.    

    

To Viper, they were definitely well-informed. He might even find out the moment he finished with Cao Jin.    

    

"Kid, at least you're being honest. Sit down."    

    

Elder Meng's tone became much more gentle.    

    

I heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously wiped off my cold sweat. It seems that no matter how much better he treats me in the future, he shouldn't be too pleased with himself. This old fellow is a devil that kills without blinking an eye.    

    

I sat down and said nothing.    

    

At this moment, it was better to say one less word than one more. The phrase "words must be lost" was very reasonable.    

    

"Brat, you're quite capable. You destroyed Cao Jin's entire arena without saying a word, causing the entire city's entertainment area to pay for you alone."    

    

"Old Meng, you flatter me."    

    

I smiled.    

    

"However, I do like to see Guo Jinhai and Boss Zhu's businesses reorganized."    

    

The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.    

    

I secretly rejoiced in my heart. Rumor has it that the biggest business under Viper's name is the East Port Pier. As for the entertainment venue, I have never heard of it.    

    

"Old Meng, with Guo Jinhai and Boss Zhu's abilities, they shouldn't be able to create too much trouble for them."    

    

"No, this time it's the orders from the head of the city, all the major departments will be participating, and this year will soon be over. In order to welcome the arrival of the new year, we have to create a brand-new city appearance, I wonder who will be the target of this fire."    

    

Sir Meng let out a rare sigh.    

    

I was a little confused. What was the purpose of creating a city appearance? What was the meaning of this fire?    

    

"Old Meng, I don't quite understand."    

    

"Every year, before the arrival of the new spring, there will be a fierce battle in the city, mainly attacking the Gray Forces. Every time, there will be a big shot, I remember one year I almost fell into it, but I had no choice but to give up my entertainment industry and completely hide in the shadows."    

    

Sir Meng seemed to have fallen into a distant memory.    

    

My heart tightened, even the poisonous snake almost died inside. It seemed that I had underestimated this fight. No wonder when Elder Meng knew I was going to act against the wind, he warned me to be careful.    

    

If it was really as dangerous as Elder Meng said, then wouldn't his decision have been a little hasty?    

    

"Has Guo Jinhai and the rest been burned?"    

    

I asked curiously.    

    

"Even I was almost done for, how about they? The most powerful one, our three factions were almost destroyed at the same time. It was also at that time, a big boss suddenly rose up from the north of the city and quickly took over the north of the city, becoming the strongest faction in Hong Kong at that time. "    

    

Old Meng was completely immersed in his memories.    

    

I listened very carefully. When I heard about that big boss from the north of the city, even my breathing seemed to stop.    

    

North of the city had always been a mystery, so Elder Meng definitely knew what was going on inside.    

    

"Old Meng, why hasn't any power occupied the north side of the city?" What happened to that Zhu Shi Guang? And that big boss is so powerful, how did he disappear? "    

    

I asked three questions at a time, and they bothered me.    

    

Old Meng gave me a meaningful look, "There are some things that are not good for you if you know too much. Zhu Shiguang might have some influence in the northern part of the city, but he's still a businessman."    

    

Damn, I knew he would say that.    

    

The people around me are all full of vigor and mystery, and they always lie to me with these words.    

    

Thinking back to what Mr. Meng had just said, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.    

    

The defeat was so severe that the three powers were almost exterminated at the same time. Even a small fry like him was not allowed to eat any more.    

    

It's over, I've thought about this matter simply.    

    

"Elder Meng, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, the city wouldn't have beaten me so harshly."    

    

I sincerely apologize.    

    

"No, it's definitely not because of you this time. Even if you push yourself to death, you can only be the fuse that led to this. Hong Kong has not been like this for several years. For it to suddenly appear this year is really strange."    

    

Elder Meng shook his head, revealing a puzzled expression.    

    

When I heard the first part of Elder Meng's words, I felt a little displeased. He meant that I was weak, that I was scum, that no matter how I did things, I would not be valued by the city.    

    

Hmph, that must be what he meant.    

    

The next second, my heart moved. I remembered that Guo Haijun and Zhang Qing both said to me, "The city has been wanting to touch Cao Jin for a long time."    

    

Could it be that the city had already planned to ignite this fire and set a target for it, Cao Jin?    

    

If that's the case, even if I don't move Cao Jin, he will be finished.    

    

F * ck!    

    

I was in no hurry to make a move.    

    

However, the situation isn't good. If the city were to make a move on Cao Jin, I would have brought it to an early end. Then, the city would change targets.    

    

This way, it would be equivalent to burning two fires in the city at the same time.    

    

If he burned the first fire for them, then for the second fire, who would they burn?    

    

Thinking of this, my heart skipped a beat.    

    

If I did something against the wind, would they kill me at the same time as they started the second fire?    

    

"Sir Meng, who do you think this fire will land on?"    

    

"How would I know who this fire will burn? It won't burn the venomous snake anyway."    

    

He was right, this fire really couldn't burn the snake's body. Other than the East Harbour Pier, no one knew what other businesses the snake had.    

    

"I was frightened by your fire."    

    

Subconsciously, I raised my hand to rub my head and smiled shyly.    

    

"The ones who should be afraid are Guo Jinhai and Boss Zhu. They already know the power inside, maybe they've already become ants on a hot pan."    

    

Elder Meng said with a smile.    

    

I rolled my eyes and had a crazy idea in my head.    

    

Elder Meng had just mentioned that one day, when the three families were almost annihilated, just as the limelight was about to rise, a big shot suddenly rose up from the north of the city, becoming the strongest big shot in the city at the speed of lightning.    

    

Then could he also use this fire to quickly rise to prominence in the north of the city?    

    

Before this, he had to bring the fire to Guo Jinhai and Boss Zhu. As long as he could keep the fire going around the two families, burning them to the point they couldn't take care of themselves, then he would be able to rise to prominence just like that big boss from back then.    

    

Thinking of this, my breathing started to quicken.    

    

That was a good saying. The more dangerous the situation, the greater the opportunity concealed within.    

    

Foolish people only see danger.    

    

A wise man sees only the hope of success.    

    

Yes, big brother narcissistically thinks that I should belong to the latter kind of people, I'm sure of it.    

    

At this moment, a sentence from Mr. Meng interrupted my train of thought.    

    

"Kid, standing on the ground is always an indestructible truth, you must not be overwhelmed by your rationality. Not everyone has the courage, wisdom, and strength of the Peking University lackeys back then, even with that little person of yours in the Qingjiang district, it's not enough to even bother you, let alone the northern part of the city."    

    

He seemed to see through my ambitions and reminded me sarcastically.    

    

The words were so enlightened that they jolted me out of my stupor.    

    

I lifted my hand to wipe off the cold sweat on my forehead. I felt as though my hand was sweating. I was lacking manpower. If I really did that, I might be devoured to the point that not even dregs would remain. The success rate was close to zero.    

    

Since his dreams had been shattered, he had to be realistic.    

    

"Thank you for the reminder, Sir Meng."    

    

I quickly stood up and bowed to Mr. Meng. Then I asked, "Are you willing to accept this deal?"
