Probably no one would have thought that now that the situation of the war has not been settled, and the situation has not settled down yet, I just put my hands on the smuggling trade at sea without doing my "business".
And I have another intention: after all, Wick has been in this industry for many years, and he is familiar with all aspects and well-informed. I need him to give me information... at least, I can't let the cobra leave Vancouver under my nose!
"Where are you going?" Shiro asked me.
I frowned, rubbed the sore spot on the back of my shoulder lightly, gritted my teeth and said, "Go...see Shitou and the others."
Along the way, Xi Luo concentrated on driving, while paying attention to the front and rear of our car, making sure that no one was following us, and then we arrived at a place prepared in advance... This is an old factory, and we hid a car in it for transit . Here we changed to a pre-prepared pickup truck and went back on the road, which can minimize the possibility of being tracked.
My mind is a little uneasy, I check the time on my watch from time to time, and I can't help but take out my phone to look at it. All of this was seen by Xi Luo. He didn't ask at first, but later, when I looked at my phone for the third time, he said, "Are you waiting for a call?"
"Well... I hope I'm right." I smiled wryly and looked out the window.
Well, the news of Ba Ye's death has already spread from stone to Asia... It's not too long now.
For such an important matter, Fatty Fang must have gotten the news as soon as possible... Moreover, here in Canada, when the eighth master died, I was the most important. Everyone will understand this result!
But now a few hours have passed... Fatty Fang and I have a personal friendship, but he hasn't even called me... Could something have happened? In other words, where in Asia do not want to recognize me as the successor of the eighth master
Just as I was looking at my phone for the fourth time, my phone finally rang. It's just that I saw a string of unfamiliar numbers...
Looking at this strange number, my heart moved! A smile came to the corner of his mouth...
"Hello!" I picked up the phone.
"Mr. Chen Yang?" A hoarse man's voice came from the other party: "I am Da Ruan!" It was in Chinese and he spoke fluently.
I was not surprised at all: "Oh, Mr. Da Ruan. You finally took the initiative to find me. I don't know why you came to me? Could it be a negotiation... Hehe, but the hatred between us may no longer be resolved through negotiation gone."
"You and I both understand this." Da Ruan said coldly, "Don't go around in circles...my brother is in your hands!"
"Yi?" I pretended to be surprised: "Why do you think so?"
"Except for you, no one else can do this kind of thing." Da Ruan's voice was full of deep resentment, and the voice was harsh and unpleasant: "But I admit, this time you played really beautifully!"
"Thank you." I said lightly, "Then what do you mean by calling me?"
"My brother... I want my brother's life back!" Da Ruan said slowly.
"Ah..." I sighed on purpose, and sneered, "This joke is not funny at all! Big Ruan, we have a deep hatred now! Little Ruan fell into my hands, do you think I might put him back Give it to you?"
"...if..." Da Ruan's voice was very gloomy: "If I ask the price high enough!"
"High enough? How high can it be?" I said in a serious tone, "Can you give me back the life of my brother who died?!"
"Huh!" Da Ruan said with a proud tone, "Chen Yang, you are also the boss! Since the two sides are fighting, of course there will inevitably be casualties, and many of my subordinates died, and the loss is much heavier than yours! Hmph... the police You reported the stronghold that was copied not long ago!"
I smiled and said nothing.
"I'll return the drugs to you." Da Ruan quickly offered the conditions.
I sneer.
"I can leave Vancouver with my subordinates! All my territory belongs to you! From now on, if your little fifth brother is in Vancouver, I, Da Ruan, will definitely set foot here!"
I still sneered, but I laughed harder and harder, almost laughing out loud, and then said in an infinitely mocking tone: "Da Ruan, do you think I'm an idiot? Or are you an idiot in the first place?"
"..."
The other party was tongue-tied, and without hesitation, I said slowly, "Huh... return my drugs, cede all the territory, you Vietnamese quit Vancouver... In the past, this price would have been high enough! However, under the current situation , The price you asked is almost worthless!"
The other party was at a loss for words, and I snapped: "Drugs are not drugs... Even if you keep them... Huh, in this situation, you Vietnamese are street rats! You keep drugs, do Hell Angels dare to cooperate with you? Who is it now? Whoever touches you will be unlucky! As for you ceding the territory to me... Take your people out of Vancouver forever... A joke! A big joke! Now you are the number one public enemy of the police! The police have made up their minds to eradicate you Vietnamese You don’t need to cede your territory, it’s left there... don’t I want to reach out to take it myself! Hmph! As for whether you will withdraw from Vancouver... dare you not? If you don’t retreat, stay here and you will be arrested by the police Kill them all!!"
"..."
After another period of silence, Da Ruan's tone seemed to be a lot more compromised, he seemed to be sighing helplessly: "Well, what conditions do you want to let my brother go!"
I pondered for a moment, then sneered and said, "Okay, you promise me three conditions, and I'll consider keeping Xiao Ruan alive!"
"you say!"
"The first condition, I want a cobra! These guys were found by you... I want all of these people's lives!"
Da Ruan seemed to be in a dilemma, he hesitated for a moment, but he said very bachelor: "I'm afraid I can't do it... I'm short of manpower now, these people are very powerful, I'm afraid my people may not be able to kill them all."
I laughed: "You don't need to do it, you just need to sell them to me, and I will do it myself!"
"Can!"
"The second condition... I want money! After the war is over, it is an international practice for the defeated party to pay for military expenses, right? Not much, 20 million U.S. dollars!" I sneered: "This price is not low... But Since you, Da Ruan, plan to quit Vancouver and take your brother back to Vietnam to retire...then you don’t need to leave too much money in a place like Vietnam where prices are cheap, right?”
"Money is not a problem." Da Ruan answered happily this time.
Indeed, if people are gone, why keep the money
"The third condition... I want to be alone!!" I held the phone in one hand, but my fist was already clenched in the other hand! Gritting his teeth, he said slowly, "I know, you buried a nail in my place! You must give this person to me! I'm going to peel him off!"
"Deal!" Da Ruan seemed to have given up everything in order to save his younger brother's life.
I casually reported an account, which was a Swiss bank account, and Da Ruan immediately said that within 24 hours at the latest, he would remit 20 million U.S. dollars to the account.
"I will save your brother's life first... come to me after you have fulfilled all three conditions."
I hung up the phone and closed my eyes.
"Xiao Wu, do you really want to let Xiao Ruan go?" Xi Luo interrupted and asked.
I smiled and twitched the corners of my mouth: "I only said to save his life, but I didn't say to let him go."
"But, you want the cobra, you want the traitor, I understand...you want twenty million dollars...why?"
I smiled wryly, patted Xi Luo on the shoulder, and looked at this guy seriously: "Xi Luo, Xi Luo... You are not in charge and don't know Chai Migui! Since I took over this stall, I have fought with people and used those arms , pensions for the dead and injured brothers, the funeral... so don't spend money? But we have not received income for a few days! Now most of the brothers in the garage don't know, only the accountant and I know... the ones in our garage That little money is almost bottoming out! Damn, do you think our family is a mountain of gold and silver? The eighth master used to control the financial power too strictly, and all the money was in his hands. Now that he is dead, legally speaking, those It's all property under his name, what if I can't get it? So many brothers follow me to eat, I can't be empty-handed. Hey... "
Seeing that Xi Luo didn't speak, I continued: "You don't have to worry about the money, I have asked Xiaozhu to find Lawyer Zhou. The property and documents controlled by Master Eight must be placed with Lawyer Zhou. The barrister is one of us, so there shouldn’t be any big problems. Besides, we’ve had a hard time recently, and so have other gangs! Now that the police are so strict, who would dare to open their doors for business? They’ve all run out of food , They are all eating stored food! If the police continue to search like this, within half a month, we don’t need to fight. Those gangster boys will riot if they don’t have money! They come out to join the underworld and have no money. Who will do it? ah!"
It is intentional for me to explain these carefully to Shiro. I really want Xi Luo to get rid of the knot in his heart as soon as possible. The best way is to find more things for him to do... Moreover, it makes me feel that I am in a difficult situation and need him as a brother!
"What about down there? What else is there to do down here?" Ciro said, "Shall we go back? Or go somewhere else?"
I restrained my smile and said slowly: "No... let's go..."
I gave an address.
It's time to let Xi Luo know about some things!
