Shanghai, the financial district of Shanghai, the headquarters of the Gao Group.
In a spacious and bright office, a man in his thirties was sitting in an office chair with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed as if he was thinking about something. He was the boss of the Qing Gang, Gao Shixiong.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door. The sudden knock interrupted Gao Shixiong's thoughts and he couldn't help but look angry.
"Come in!" Gao Shixiong said.
One of the Qing Gang's men walked in quickly and stood respectfully in front of Gao Shixiong's desk." Boss, we still haven't found him!"”
"Pa!" Gao Shixiong slammed the table, stood up, and roared at his subordinate," A bunch of f * cking good-for-nothings. We can't even find these few people after more than ten days! Did the Qing Gang raise a bunch of useless people?”
Cold sweat trickled down the man's face from time to time, but he did not dare to wipe the sweat off his head in front of Gao Shixiong. He could only let it drip on the office floor.
Just as Gao Shixiong was reprimanding his subordinate, there was another knock on the door.
"Come in!" Gao Shixiong said unhappily.
A person who looked like a secretary respectfully walked into the office and reported to Gao Shixiong," Young Master, Master has invited you!”
"I know! I'll go now!" What could the old master want from me at this time? He hurriedly put on his suit and walked towards the door. When he walked past the subordinate, he glared at him angrily.
The subordinate suddenly felt that gaze stabbing into his back like a sharp knife, and he couldn't help but be alert.
"Wait for me here!" Gao Shixiong ordered.
"Yes, sir! Boss!" Seeing Gao Shixiong close the door, the subordinate dared to take out a handkerchief from his pocket and slowly wipe the sweat off his forehead, slowly letting out a long sigh of relief.
On the top floor of the Gao Corporation, in the chairman's office.
Gao Shixiong stood in front of his desk and looked at the high office chair. The head of the Gao Group, the head of the Shanghai Green Gang, Gao Yongnian, was sitting behind the chair. At this moment, Gao Yongnian's back was facing Gao Shixiong, who was standing, and he was looking at the scenery outside through the huge glass window.
"You're here?"
"Yes, may I know why Father has called me here?”
No matter how powerful Gao Shixiong was in the outside world, he always maintained absolute respect in front of Gao Yongnian. This was an irresistible sense of obedience.
The office chair slowly turned around, and what entered Gao Shixiong's eyes was a dignified, silver-haired old man in his sixties. Although time had mercilessly left traces on Gao Yongnian's face, his face was still red and his eyes were bright, making people dare not look straight at him.
Gao Shixiong knew that all the gangs in the underworld would give the Shanghai Green Gang some face, not because of him, but because of the real behind-the-scenes leader of the Green Gang, Gao Yongnian. Although Gao Yongnian, a boss who had experienced decades of fighting in the underworld, was in his twilight years, in the eyes of many people, he was absolutely qualified and had reason to make others submit to him, including his son.
Gao Shixiong had a deep fear of his father, but more than that, he respected him. He always regarded his father, Gao Yongnian, as his role model.
The reason why he was so respectful in front of Gao Yongnian was because his father was still alive and well. In other words, as long as Gao Yongnian lived in this world, Gao Shixiong could only obey. Unless Gao Yongnian died one day, he could really use Gao Shixiong's name to support the underworld.
However, he could not do it now.
"Shixiong! Even though the company's business in the underworld is very big now, they still haven't given up on the underworld business. Do you know why?”Gao Yongnian looked at Gao Shixiong and saw that he did not answer. He continued," It's not because the underworld business can bring us much profit. Now the company's profit is millions a day. Do you think I still care? It's because some of my business partners have been friends for many years. I can't let others say that I, Gao Yongnian, have made a fortune and lost my former friends! Do you understand?"
"I understand, Father!"
"Do you really understand? The Southeast Asian mafia boss called me today and said that we have stopped all business in the underworld recently. Is that true? Chief Wu of the municipal bureau also called me and asked me why the Qing Gang had been making so many moves in the underworld these days, making the other gangs suspicious. They all thought that the Qing Gang was going to take action against them, causing chaos in the underworld in Shanghai.”Gao Yongnian's tone clearly revealed great dissatisfaction.
Gao Shixiong's expression changed slightly before returning to normal.
"Father, don't worry. I'll deal with these matters immediately! I will immediately restore the business in the underworld.”
"En! Chief Wu said that the central government is going to send someone down soon. He hopes that the Qing Gang can behave themselves. Do you know what to do? Also, I heard that you dispatched all the Qing Gang disciples to find some people, right?”Gao Yongnian asked.
"They are just a few overconfident brats. Father, don't worry. After my subordinates find them, they will deal with them.”Gao Shixiong replied.
"Shixiong! The company will have to give up the underworld business sooner or later. Don't think about fighting and killing every day. If you have time, learn from the world and come to the company to help me in the future. Do you know?" Gao Yongnian said.
"Remember, Father!" Hearing Gao Yongnian's words, Gao Shixiong's eyes couldn't help but light up. Of course, he couldn't let Gao Yongnian find out about this.
"It's okay. You can go out!" Gao Yongnian said.
"Yes, sir!"
Gao Shixiong gently closed the door of the office with a cold smile on his face. The veins on his right hand that was holding the door handle were bulging…。
Gao Shixiong returned to his office. His subordinate was still standing there. Looking at his trembling subordinates, Gao Shixiong seemed to have found the long-lost vanity again, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
"Inform the gang to immediately resume business with Southeast Asia and other places.”Gao Shixiong ordered.
"Boss, are we still going to look for that person?”
"Of course I have to find them. I have to find them even if I have to turn Shanghai upside down. However, he couldn't do it so openly anymore. He had to do it in secret.”Gao Shixiong pondered for a moment." Inform the other gangs to pay attention to all suspicious people who appear in their territory. Tell them to inform us immediately if anything happens. You may leave."
"Yes, I am. Boss!"
The subordinate quietly closed the door and walked out of the office.
Gao Shixiong stood in front of the glass window with his hands behind his back. He looked at the skyscrapers outside the window with a grim expression. He felt as if a huge stone was pressing down on his chest, making him unable to breathe. Suddenly, Gao Shixiong seemed to have made up his mind. He picked up the phone at his desk and dialed a number. He said that he would immediately gather all the hall masters for a meeting at the old place.
Gao Shixiong, who had just finished the call, sat back in his office chair as if he had been relieved of a huge burden. He took a deep breath.
Xiao Tian did not expect that the unintentional dispute between him and the Qing Gang would become the fuse for the change of power in the Gao Group and the Shanghai Qing Gang.
In a three-story villa in the suburbs of Shanghai.
"Cheers!" Xiao Tian and his brothers were sitting around a round table, eating hairy crabs. The only regret was that they couldn't go to a restaurant in the city because of the Qing Gang's search. They could only eat at one of the Fire Phoenix's residences in Shanghai. This residence was actually a communication station for the Fire Phoenix. Every order to kill was passed to the Fire Phoenix from here. This was why no one had actually seen the Fire Phoenix despite her fame in the martial world. The person in charge of contacting the Fire Phoenix was someone called Sixth Uncle. The Fire Phoenix did not know his real name. As for where the Fire Phoenix learned her skills and how she knew this person called Sixth Uncle, the Fire Phoenix did not say, and Xiao Tian did not ask. Everyone had their own secrets. If she was unwilling to tell others, then she must have a reason not to tell others. If Xiao Tian didn't ask, the other brothers didn't dare to ask either. There was no need for that.
Apart from being the Fire Phoenix's contact person, Sixth Uncle was also an excellent surgeon. However, Fire Phoenix had never given Sixth Uncle a chance to show his skills before because Fire Phoenix had never lost a hand or suffered any serious injuries. However, this time, the Fire Phoenix brought back seven or eight injured people at once, and two of them were in critical condition. Sixth Uncle did not ask where these people came from. He knew that the people brought back by Fire Phoenix must be her friends, so he did his best to save them.
After more than ten days of treatment, the brothers basically had no problems. The wound on Li Dong's abdomen had scabbed over. Little Tiger and Yang Ming were also out of danger. They could stand and talk, but their faces were a little pale. They still needed to rest for a while. Seeing that all his brothers were getting better, Xiao Tian's heart was finally at ease. So, he decided to eat hairy crabs tonight to celebrate.
Seeing his brothers toasting each other, Xiao Tian once again felt a strong brotherhood.
Xiao Tian got up and walked to the balcony. He looked at the faint moonlight and carefully planned his next step. At this time, it would be even more difficult to go straight from Shanghai to Shen Zhen. It would be difficult to escape from the Qing Gang for a while. The only way now was to wait for the news to be less urgent and then think of a way to leave Shanghai. However, he had to get the money from Shen Zhen back. That was the foundation of his career. Xiao Tian believed that the money Dao Baonan was talking about must be a huge sum, but he didn't know how much it was.
At this moment, the Fire Phoenix came to Xiao Tian's side.
"Feng 'er, go and call Piaoxue and Xiaolong over.”Xiao Tian instructed.
Soon, Piaoxue, who had been accepted by her brothers, and the little dragon, who had recovered from his injuries, came behind Xiao Tian and stood quietly waiting for him to speak.
"The two of you will immediately fly to Shen Zhen tomorrow to get the money back. Be careful on the road!" Xiao Tian instructed.
"Yes, sir!" The two replied.
After making up his mind, Xiao Tian slowly heaved a sigh of relief. He stretched his back and moaned comfortably." I can finally sleep soundly tonight!"”
