Chapter 137: The Rules of the Underworld
19 looked at the extra knife in his bag and couldn’t figure out what was going on. What a weirdo. How could he kidnap someone like that?
Although the man in black said that he would raise the price midway, he took out a knife from it and gave it to him as a settlement fee. This wasn’t right, was it?
Was this kidnapping?
“19? Do you think that man in black is interested in you? This is really… Hahaha…”
“Little girl, you can actually laugh at this moment? Laugh, laugh hard. You’re going to cry later, but you look so handsome. Look at how rare this brother is.”
One of the lackeys had probably had never seen such a beautiful woman. When he saw Shen Xiaoxiao’s smiling face like a flower, his heart itched. He couldn’t control his hand and reached out to take some tofu.
However, when his hand reached out, an even thicker hand hit his arm with a ‘pa’ sound. It hurt so much that he suddenly shrank back. He looked at the sunglasses man beside him and cried out in shock:
“Brother Qiang, what do you mean by this? I’m just taking advantage of her. Do you have to go to this extent? Besides, I only asked for your help because I don’t have enough manpower today. Logically speaking, you should have taken the money too. Shouldn’t you take your two brothers and leave quickly?”
The lackey was not happy. No matter who was disturbed, his mood could not be satisfied. Now, he was somewhat regretting asking this Wang Qiang for help. Look at him raising the price midway. He was really not professional at all.
However, he did not know what was going on in the underworld recently. Ever since that Black Tiger guy died in a car accident and was taken over by his good brother, Li San Er, this Li San Er was also a tough nut to crack. He did not see it in the past, but now he realized that this person’s methods were even more ruthless. Not to mention that the territory of the three districts was now under his control, he also did not know what big business he had taken on recently. He did not care about these kidnapping and extortion matters at all.
His big brother took on the buyer’s job to ensure that nothing went wrong. He needed sufficient manpower. He said that she had brought along a bodyguard. At that time, they were also afraid that he was a martial artist, so this was not good. However, now it seemed like it was a sham. Moreover, he had even given out a sum of money for no reason.
However, now that he had gotten the person into the car, there was no need for so many people. Thus, the lackey thought that it was better to chase them away as soon as possible.
Others might not know, but he knew that this boss had taken on a job to kill this girl. If he let this one-track-minded Wang Qiang ruin the matter, it would not be easy to handle.
Thus, he had said those words to Wang Qiang, telling him to take the money and quickly leave.
However, Wang Qiang was truly one-track-minded. The money had been given to him, and it could be considered that the goods were settled. However, he said to the lackey, “You can ask me to leave, but you told me that it was just a simple kidnapping. You didn’t say that you wanted to touch a girl.”
“I won’t interfere if you want to exchange some money to spend, but if you want to harm a girl, that’s not fair. In our line of work, there are rules. If you cross the line, then I’ll have to talk to this old fogey.”
“The old man, this old ghost under the capital. Let’s put it this way. He has the title of local emperor. He divided the areas for the thugs under the capital. Those people who did these things are clearly divided, and no one crosses the line.”
“For example, if you are a thief, then you will steal. But if you didn’t steal and wanted to harm a girl’s daughter or life, then fine, then your life would be given up.”
“Similarly, if you are a kidnapper, then you are a simple kidnapper. If you are a kidnapper and want to touch a girl, kill a girl, or be a scabby person, then it is a matter for another group of people. It shouldn’t be done by people from your area.”
This rule was known by everyone in the underworld. And it was precisely because of this rule that the people under the Imperial City were able to live in peace.
Although the old man was getting old and didn’t care much, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse. They had some tricks up their sleeves. If you stepped over the line, you would be dealt with.
When the lackeys heard Wang Qiang’s words, they naturally gnashed their teeth in hatred. It wasn’t that they didn’t know the rules of the underworld, but a person who licked blood at the edge of a knife wasn’t greedy for money. The buyer had paid a large price just to take this girl’s life.
Moreover, their boss had a very deep relationship with the boss of the Eastern District, Brother Er Gou. Brother Er Gou specialized in killing people and stealing goods. This was to take care of their boss and let their boss drink some meat soup. These small shrimps also earned some New Year’s money.
If such a good thing was disturbed by this Wang Qiang, then the gains wouldn’t make up for the losses.
Therefore, no matter how much the lackey hated this Wang Qiang, he still looked at him with a smile and said, “Brother Qiang, look at what you’re saying. How can our boss not know the rules? Don’t worry, we know what to do.”
“We just want to exchange some money to spend. My hands were cheap just now. Brother Qiang, don’t worry. I guarantee that I won’t touch this girl.”
Wang Qiang looked at the lackey. Similarly, he could not step over the boundary to interfere in other people’s affairs. The reminder had already been given and the money had been taken. Wang Qiang glanced at 19 again, patted 19 on the shoulder, and said to him:
“Brother, if your employer fires you at the time, come find me if you have no food to eat. Wang Qiang of the Western District. Everyone will know.”
“Girl, blame your bad luck. Don’t worry, they only want money. You just have to maintain this attitude and cooperate.”
Wang Qiang spoke casually and got out of the car. The lackey hurriedly got someone to drive and left this place of trouble.
Both 19 and Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t react after Wang Qiang left. Where did this weirdo come from? Not only did he expose his name, but he also asked 19 to jump ship?
“Damn it, is this Wang Qiang crazy? Who cares about your rules and regulations now? Last time, he got locked up in the police station and made him stupid?”
After the lackey saw Wang Qiang leave, he began to mutter, all of them complaining about Wang Qiang’s words.
Another lackey looked at the lackey and complained. He hurriedly said obsequiously:
“Brother Xiao Ma, this Wang Qiang used to be a bodyguard. He only managed to survive in the Western District after something happened. I heard that because he is loyal, he even helped others to take on a black number a few times. He has a few people under him, but this person only has a little experience. Therefore, although he has become famous over the years, his territory is still the same.”
“I want you to say, of course, I know that this person is very famous and loyal. Otherwise, why would I look for him? It’s only by looking for such a person that they can keep their mouth shut. However, this person is just too simple-minded. Now, he’s still thinking about rules and regulations. He’s really a coward.”
“Brother Xiao Ma, it’s not Wang Qiang’s fault. When he entered this industry, he was personally brought out by the old man, so…”
“Forget it, forget it. Who cares? He’s gone anyway. Xiao Lu, are we there yet? Why are we so slow?”
“We’re almost there, Brother Xiao Ma. We’re almost there.”
“Brother Xiao Ma, then this girl, do you think that little brother can also — Hehe –”
“I haven’t even made a move yet, and you dare to beat me? If you want to play later, you won’t be able to use it in this car. When we get there later, there will be a time for you to be happy. Now, just bear with it. It’s best if you don’t make any mistakes on this road.”
19 and Shen Xiaoxiao stayed in the corner and listened to their explanations. Naturally, they knew what kind of situation they were in. However, Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect that someone would dare to be so arrogant in broad daylight. Killing people under the emperor’s feet in broad daylight? How dare they!
