Chapter 91 Crying with joy
"Crow, you have nothing to do here. Go back and wait for notification."
Cheng Long waved his hand as if to shoo away flies.
The five East Star Tigers were all full of evil, and many of their subordinates were full of sins. They killed people directly. If they wanted to catch the people below, they would have to waste a lot of effort.
Instead of going through all the trouble, it would be better to let Wu Wu and Situ Haonan live longer.
Tonight, just take down the Smiling Tiger and his subordinates.
"Yes, Master."
The crow did not hesitate and left as ordered.
"Wait..."
There was a sudden shout from behind.
The crow who reached the door immediately stopped and turned to look at his 'master'.
"Call me Mr. Cheng from now on."
"Yes, Mr. Cheng."
The crow is like a robot, with no expression on its face. People who have been hit by the puppet technique need a minute or two of buffering time to recover from their personal mood swings.
When He Yong was first recruited, he was like a robot incapable of emotion.
"Situ Haonan, you have nothing to do with me here."
"Mr. Cheng, I'm leaving now."
After sending away the two unrelated people, Cheng Long immediately looked at the little girls Liu Piaopiao and Zhang Li, and asked curiously, "You are so young, how could you think of coming to a nightclub to be a hostess?"
"Mr. Cheng, my parents opened an ocean trading company. The company's funds were tight some time ago. As a last resort, we borrowed a sum of money from the loan shark company of your subordinate 'Mr. Wu' for turnover. I thought I could replace it in a month at most. , who knew that the ship transporting goods was actually hijacked in the Red Sea..."
Zhang Li originally came from a pretty good family. Her parents' ocean-going trading company grew bigger and bigger, but ocean-going trading was really not something that ordinary people could handle.
Without strong capital, if an accident happened, the capital chain would be broken, and her family's little capital would not be able to sustain it.
No, Zhang Li was taken to the nightclub by Wu Zhiwei's people that night when the usurious loan was due.
Liu Piaopiao's situation is similar.
But her parents were not losing money in business.
Piao Piao's father was a bad gambler. He lost money at a small gambling stall run by Wu Zhiwei and borrowed money one after another. It wasn't until the cumulative amount reached an astonishing three hundred thousand that he realized the seriousness of the problem.
But by then it was too late.
Liu Piaopiao's father had a gold tooth handle, so if he had the gold tooth extracted, it would only be enough to pay back a few installments of interest.
Usury has always been a compounding interest. Tens of thousands of dollars can even crush a family, let alone three hundred thousand. This amount of money will not be repaid in a lifetime even with a gold tooth handle.
As a result, Liu Piaopiao became a debt repayment tool and was taken to the nightclub by the smiling tiger.
"Bring me all their IOUs."
It is impossible for Cheng Long to kill all Wu Zhiwei's people, so the IOU must be taken away, otherwise Wu Zhiwei and a group of his confidants will disappear, and someone will soon replace them and take care of the business of Dongxing Yuen Long Hall.
If they are not taken away, Liu Piaopiao, Zhang Li and others will definitely make the same mistakes again.
"Yes, Mr. Cheng."
Wu Zhiwei left in response.
At this time, He Yong, who was sitting aside watching the show, suddenly said: "Mr. Cheng, I don't seem to have anything to do here. Why don't I leave too so that you can do things more conveniently?"
"Why don't you have anything to do?"
Cheng Long glanced at He Yong and said calmly: "You are so strong, I will ask you to dig holes to bury people!"
"Mr. Cheng, you've got the right person. I don't have anything else but my strength. Whatever you tell me, I can dig out any deep hole for you." He Yong promised, patting his chest and saying: Looks like a loyal bitch.
He did not realize at all that the crisis had arrived.
Zhang Li and Liu Piaopiao were so frightened by their conversation that they shivered. Not long after, Wu Zhiwei returned to the box with a stack of IOUs and handed them over to Cheng Long without hesitation.
"You are free, tear them all up!"
Cheng Long casually returned the IOU to several poor little girls.
Zhang Li cried with joy when she got her father's IOU, and tore up the IOU with tears in her eyes.
The same goes for several other people.
The only exception was Liu Piaopiao. Not only did she not tear up the IOU, she also returned it to Cheng Long.
"Mr. Cheng, my father Jin Yahan is a bad gambler. Returning the IOU to me will not solve the problem at all. You can only let him live in peace for a few days at most. He will be sold sooner or later anyway, so why not sell me to you now."
What Liu Piaopiao said was so reasonable that Zhang Li, who was trying to persuade her to go back to study, fell silent.
Gambling addiction is the same as drug addiction. It is difficult to get rid of it. Liu Piaopiao's father can sell his daughter once, but he can sell it twice or three times...
This time I was lucky and met a noble person.
What about next time?
Instead of risking your next gamble, you might as well sell yourself to Mr. Cheng.
This is a forced choice, but it is also an opportunity. It depends on how Cheng Long chooses.
"Stab it!"
The IOU with the gold tooth handle was torn to pieces by Cheng Long as soon as he got it.
Liu Piaopiao's heart suddenly became cold, especially when she saw Cheng Long conjuring a fire out of thin air and burning the fragments of the IOU in his hand to ashes, her burning heart sank to the bottom.
But what was unexpected was that Cheng Long's next words made her cold heart become hot again.
"I don't need these things with me. Your rotten gambler father, I will take time to help you solve it."
"Thank you Mr. Cheng, thank you Mr. Cheng."
Liu Piaopiao cried with joy and thanked her excitedly.
She originally thought that Mr. Cheng tore up the IOU because he didn't like her, but unexpectedly, it turned out that Mr. Cheng didn't dislike her, but didn't need something like an IOU.
"Zhang Li, you can go."
What Cheng Long is going to do next is not convenient for outsiders to watch. Liu Piaopiao chooses to follow him, that is, one of her own. A proper look at his methods can actually increase her loyalty.
"Mr. Cheng, thank you."
Zhang Li stood up and bowed solemnly.
Unlike Liu Piaopiao, she once came from a wealthy family and had quite good academic performance. Her father's IOU was torn up and taken away, which meant that the loan that crushed her family would never have to be repaid.
Without the foreign debt, maybe her parents can make a comeback in the future.
Therefore, even if she is filled with gratitude, she will not give up on her future.
After watching the girls leave, Cheng Long turned to look at Wu Zhiwei on the side and ordered: "Awei, call all your confidants in, not the ones outside, but all of them. Can you understand me?"
"I understand."
Wu Zhiwei nodded repeatedly.
Although he didn't quite understand Cheng Long's intention, he still followed the other party's instructions and called over all his confidants in the nightclub and other venues.
In less than half an hour, dozens of young and Dangerous people gathered in a small box. Some had colorful hair, some were dressed in fancy clothes, but some were simply dressed, quiet and calm.
"Which of these people have never sold drugs or killed anyone?"
"Uh..." Wu Zhiwei smiled and said awkwardly: "All my confidants have trafficked drugs. Everything they eat and wear is from drug trafficking..."
"No wonder people on the road often say that the four boys Dongxing, the beat boy Hongxing, and Lianhe produce the chicken essence. I really haven't wronged you." Cheng Long couldn't help laughing.
Fourth, Conch No. 4 is Dongxing’s main production and sales variety. If Dongxing Zai sells too much, it will naturally be given the title of ‘Four Zai’.
