"Okay, you can think about it carefully later. Now can you tell me what happened back then?" Ye Qing asked, squinting his eyes.
In an instant, Zhang Xiangkai fell into some kind of memory. After a long time, he pondered and said: "In fact, our Blood Hand Hall secretly had a cooperative relationship with the Chai family back then."
"What kind of cooperative relationship?" Ye Qing asked.
Zhang Xiangkai responded: "Back then, our Blood Hand Hall had a secret smuggling route in our hands. When the Chai family found out about it, they approached Boss Xiang to seek cooperation."
"The Chai family wants to use this smuggling channel to transport supplies?" Ye Qing asked with narrowed eyes.
"Yes!" Zhang Xiangkai nodded and said, "It's not just materials, but also personnel."
"Who are they? What supplies are there?" Ye Qing asked.
"For a long time, we have not known what kind of materials the Chai family brings in and out of Shacheng, and who are the people coming and going." Zhang Xiangkai shook his head and said.
"Since we are walking through the smuggling channel of your Blood Hand Hall, wouldn't you know?" Ye Qing asked with a frown.
"I don't know!" Zhang Xiangkai shook his head.
"Why?" Ye Qing asked doubtfully.
Zhang Xiangkai pondered and said: "At that time, after reaching an agreement with the Chai family, Boss Xiang ordered the brothers not to inquire about the supplies coming in and out of the Chai family, nor about the people coming in and out, so we have been escorting the Chai family's personnel.
The brothers who are bringing supplies in and out of Shacheng don’t even know what the Chai family is doing.”
"Why did Xiang Sicheng give such an order?" Ye Qing asked again.
"I don't know!" Zhang Xiangkai shook his head and said: "But we all analyzed at the time that maybe it was because the Chai family was so powerful that our Blood Hand Hall existed within the Chai family's sphere of influence, so Boss Xiang didn't want to offend the Chai family for this.
, What’s more, when operating a smuggling channel, the materials coming in and out are not only the Chai family’s, we also cooperate with many people, so from the earliest stage, Boss Xiang made a rule not to inquire about any customer’s affairs.”
"Understandable." Ye Qing nodded, and went back to his business. If Blood Hand Hall was inquiring about the objects and people entering and exiting the smuggling channels, who the hell would be willing to cooperate with Blood Hand Hall?
In fact, such regulations are not just in Shacheng, but everywhere, the forces operating smuggling channels have such regulations.
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Ye Qing waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about how you know the secrets of the Chai family!"
Zhang Xiangkai pondered for a moment and said: "It wasn't until about a month before the accident that one of our boats ferrying across the Shajiang River had an accident, and a boatload of supplies was scattered in the river. We didn't know what the Chai family had been transporting."
"What?" Ye Qing asked, squinting his eyes.
Zhang Xiangkai shrugged and said: "Actually, I only know that they are some instruments. What kind of instruments they are and what their functions are. I really haven't seen it yet. Boss Xiang asked me to salvage the materials scattered in the river, and then
Hidden."
instrument?
Ye Qing frowned. What kind of instrument could allow a family like the Chai family to use smuggling channels?
To be honest, Ye Qing was a little confused. After all, with the energy of the Chai family, in and out of Shacheng, was there any need to use the smuggling channel?
Even if the Chai family is upright and follows formal channels, who in Shacheng can investigate the Chai family?
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility, and that is that there is something wrong with the personnel moving with the supplies.
These people are most likely not from Dahua, do not have Dahua ID cards, and there are problems with their identities, so they cannot fly in and out of the country and can only use smuggling channels.
"Even if something happens to the ferry boat, the Chai family won't kill them all, right?" Ye Qing said with a frown.
"I didn't see what the instruments were, but it seems that Boss Xiang did, so he found the Chai family." Zhang Xiangkai responded.
"Looking for the Chai family? Shouldn't you just return those instruments to the Chai family?" Ye Qing asked doubtfully.
"No!" Zhang Xiangkai shook his head and said, "Boss Xiang went to negotiate with the Chai family and planned to extort a huge sum of money from the Chai family."
"You mean those instruments are very confidential instruments?" Ye Qing asked.
"It should be!" Zhang Xiangkai nodded and said: "Otherwise, if it were not a prohibited instrument, Boss Xiang would not be able to use this to blackmail the Chai family. I also think these instruments are still very important. If exposed, even
It may subvert the Chai family's position in Shacheng, so Boss Xiang will take risks to blackmail the Chai family."
"Your Blood Hand Hall is on the territory of the Chai family. Even if you are blackmailed, what can you do? Sooner or later, you will have to let the Chai family send the funds back and forth?" Ye Qing said thoughtfully.
Zhang Xiangkai responded: "So the value of those instruments is enough to make Mr. Xiang give up Shacheng and leave his hometown for them."
"What happened next?" Ye Qing asked, squinting his eyes.
"After negotiating with the Chai family, the Chai family agreed to all Boss Xiang's requests." Zhang Xiangkai said with a shrug.
"What requests did Boss Xiang make?" Ye Qing asked doubtfully.
"Five billion!" Zhang Xiangkai responded.
five billion?
Ye Qing's eyes narrowed. What kind of instrument is worth so much money and can force the Chai family to accept such a huge amount of blackmail from Xiang Sicheng?
Obviously, those instruments must be extraordinary, right?
"Since the Chai family agreed to Xiang Sicheng, why did the Chai family suddenly kill him before getting back the instruments?" Ye Qing asked in confusion.
Since the instrument is so important, it stands to reason that the Chai family should get it before dealing with Xiang Sicheng, right?
"I don't know what this family is thinking." Zhang Xiangkai shook his head and said: "I only know that the Chai family asked Boss Xiang to wait for a few days on the grounds that the amount of money was huge and needed time to raise. However, Boss Xiang waited for a few days.
But it's not money, it's killing. As for why the Chai family didn't take action after getting the instruments, I think so. The Chai family must have judged it. These instruments are hidden near the Shajiang River. With their family's energy,
They must have thought that it would not be difficult to find out, so they attacked Boss Xiang directly."
"Yeah!" Ye Qing nodded. Zhang Xiangkai's analysis made sense. Based on his analysis of the three brothers of the Chai family, these three people were all very conceited. Their thoughts at the time must have been like Zhang Xiangkai's analysis.
I think there is nothing in Shacheng that the Chai family cannot find.
Obviously, such conceit caused accidents to happen. From the Chai family's never giving up pursuit of Zhang Xiangkai, it is not difficult to see that the Chai family did not find where the instruments were hidden after all.
Ye Qing looked up at Zhang Xiangkai and asked, "Where did you hide the instrument?"
