Songhu, that night.
Just as Jiang Haifeng returned to the Jiang Residence with his men.
All of Songhu's forces were in an uproar.
"What is it? The hedonistic son of the Jiang Family had killed hundreds of people at his own dock? How could this be? It was true that the Jiang family was in the firearms business, but all these years, no one had ever heard of them doing so.”
In a restaurant, a man who was hugging his wife in his sleep was woken up.
He was originally furious, but when he heard the report from his subordinate, his entire body turned cold as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him.
"Master, this matter is absolutely true! At this moment, blood could still be seen in the water downstream of Songhu. Some people speculated that the Jiang family had sunk all the people they had killed into the river. Think about it, if so many people hadn't died, how could the Huangpu River be dyed with other colors?”
The man swallowed hard and unconsciously touched his head.
At some point, his shiny head was already covered in sweat.
"Mother, the weather is going to change. A firearms dealer turned into a firearms dealer in the blink of an eye? What the hell was going on? What about the patrols in the concession? What are they doing?"
The subordinate bent over and trembled."Master, I heard from the people who passed by the Jiang family's dock during the day that the shots were fired when the patrol arrived. Not long after the gunshot, the people from the concession police station left without looking back.”
The man sitting on the edge of the bed could no longer hold himself back when he heard this.
The palm that was originally pressed on the side actually bent, and his entire body collapsed backward.
"F * ck, really f * ck. Unreal, too unreal. The waters of Songhu are becoming more and more unpredictable. I'm afraid that there won't be any trouble that will come to our heads.”
The man's eyes were in a daze as he muttered to himself.
Similar scenes were happening in many places.
Even the Zhao family, who knew a little about Jiang Tianwen's background, was still burning with excitement.
Old Master Zhao sat on the steps below the door and looked at the crescent moon above his head. He took a puff of his pipe.
"Uncle Li, what happened? Why is my father smoking again?"
Zhao Yumin looked at Old Master Zhao, who was hunched over, and turned to look at the butler.
After a few years of serious illness, Old Master Zhao gave up smoking.
All these years, he had never smoked a cigarette even when he encountered a huge incident.
But now, why was he taking it out again?
"Young Miss, the Jiang family did something big today." Butler Li shook his head.”
Something big?
Zhao Yumin raised her eyebrows slightly.
"What happened? Could it be that those concessions had already made a move on Uncle Jiang?”
She wasn't one of those noble ladies who didn't go out of the house.
All these years, Old Master Zhao had intentionally brought her along to gain experience, to learn how to look at people and how to do things.
Ever since the Jiang family's firearms case was exposed, she had vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
The Jiang family closed the dock while the Zhao family cleaned up the warehouse.
The only possibility was that those concessions were going to attack the two families.
This matter was not rare in Songhu, or even other places.
Someone had once sighed when she was chatting with a few young ladies from noble families.
The decent people these days were nothing more than pigs that had been raised.
When and by whom, it was basically already decided.
At this moment, this knife was already hanging on the Jiang family and their family.
If the Jiang family was really in trouble, then their Zhao family should not be far away.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yumin gritted her teeth.
"If they really dare to make a move, at most, we'll just have to fight to the death. Our family has accumulated a lot of money over the years. At most, we don't want it anymore and scatter it. There are many people in Songhu who are willing to work for money. Even if we die, we can't let those foreign bandits slaughter us.”
Hearing Zhao Yumin's words, Old Master Zhao's body trembled.
Steward Li's expression also changed drastically. He quickly raised his hand to signal Zhao Yumin to lower her voice.
"My young miss, it wasn't those people from the concession who did it. It was Young Master Jiang!”
Young Master Jiang?
Jiang Hai Feng?
Zhao Yumin was stunned when she heard Butler Li's words.
Steward Li shook his head helplessly." Today, that man recruited hundreds of gunmen from somewhere and killed a group of spies who had infiltrated the Jiang family's dock. That was not enough. Young Master Jiang killed them in front of the patrol officers of several major concessions. Isn't this piercing the sky?”
Gunner?
A few hundred?
And in front of the patrols of several major concessions!？
Zhao Yumin's head buzzed.
The only thing left in her mind was the appearance of that young man.
"He, he killed someone?"
Steward Li nodded." Quite a lot. I estimate that there are at least 500 if not 1,000. The lower reaches of the river are all red. The people we sent to check are still vomiting in the backyard."”
Zhao Yumin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
At a time like this, he still had the mood to say such things.
"Uncle Li, go and get some clothes for my father. It's cold at night. Don't catch a cold.”
The moment she finished speaking, Zhao Yumin walked straight to the door.
"Father, I'm going to the Jiang family. It's not far. I want to ask about the situation. At this time, the city gate of Songhu should not be tightly closed. If they gave more money, they should be able to leave.”
When Old Master Zhao heard Zhao Yumin's words, he grabbed her arm.
Their eyes met. Old Master Zhao stood up and patted his pants.
"Nonsense. Wouldn't it be troublesome for a girl like you to go over now? Stay at home obediently!"
After wrapping the cigarette bag around the pipe, Old Master Zhao looked out of the manor.
"Don't ask about this. You can't ask. Even your father doesn't have the ability to ask.”
Old Master Zhao looked at his daughter thoughtfully and smiled."Min 'er, from today onwards, you must remember one thing. The Jiang family lived, and the Zhao family lived. The Jiang family is dead, the Zhao family is dead."
"What you said just now was right. Even if we can't win against them in the end, we won't let them slaughter us. However, before that, what you have to do is to ponder over business matters and understand the way of doing business.”
"This is all the help that our Zhao Family can give the Jiang Family.”
Looking at Old Master Zhao, Zhao Yumin stood rooted to the ground without saying a word.
A moment later, Zhao Yumin nodded.
"Father, I understand."
Glancing in the direction of the Jiang family, Zhao Yumin took a deep breath and slowly closed the door of the Zhao residence. Then, she walked towards her own house without looking back.
Looking at Zhao Yumin's back, Old Master Zhao suddenly laughed.
"If we can survive this time and become in-laws in the future, our Zhao family will really have a way out.”
