Chapter 97

A cock crows and the sky turns white.

The city god is about to return to the shrine, and the resentful ghost accelerates into the big tree leading to the underworld, and everything is silent for an instant.

Xu Ping stepped out of the City God's Temple, not wanting to hear a sound behind him that would make him fall into pieces.

"Master Zhong Kui also said that after three days, only your ghost hunting order can open the door to the underworld. As for how to do it, it depends on your own heart."

Well, I said I would not work for the underworld, so I went around and worked as a temporary worker.

But it's not bad, at least, after three days, even if there are ghosts that haven't entered the underworld, there won't be so many killings.

Not every ghost will yearn for the human world, many want to be reincarnated, and it is not necessary for every ghost to be physically saved.

Xu Ping realized today that even gods in the human world are helpless.

However, he also unexpectedly discovered that the City God's Temple was bright and golden, and there were so many incense sticks.

If the God-killing Technique is performed with the help of the City God's incense, the power will be more than doubled compared to when it was in Renjia Town.

As long as we have a good relationship with this old Qin, the plug-in dad will no longer worry about me not being able to kill the boss.

When we returned to the cabin, we were just in time for breakfast. We had thick porridge made from shrimps and crabs. Life on the water is so simple and unpretentious.

Just as he sat down, Li Qinghe saw that he hadn't returned all night, so he advised him with the tone of a veteran: "Boss Xu, I still want to remind you that young people should be more restrained."

?

Xu Ping looked up: "You misunderstood, I'm not that kind of person."

"I understand!" Li Qinghe blinked at him and lowered his voice: "Next time I meet the boss lady, I won't say anything nonsense."

"No, I..." Xu Ping hesitated, oh, forget it, what will happen even if you meet her.

It can only be a drama about who is in the hall and why he is suing me.

After eating, Li Qinghe took out his cigarette again and smoked it.

Seeing Xu Ping looking over, he smiled and shook the cigarette case: "Want one?"

Xu Ping shook his head, "It's not fun."

Seeing his refusal, Li Qinghe put away the cigarette case and began to taste it alone, "It's better if you don't get addicted. This thing is harmful to the body."

Xu Ping said: "You know it hurts your body, but you still smoke?"

Li Qinghe sighed: "You know, I heard that Westerners have done research and said that smoking can produce pamine, which makes people feel happy, and finding a woman can also produce it. A cigarette can last for two hours of pleasure, so

As long as I smoke twelve cigarettes a day, it's equivalent to looking for women all the time."

What nonsense is this... Xu Ping retorted: "Then why don't you smoke twenty-four cigarettes a day, which is equivalent to finding two women a day."

Li Qinghe was stunned for a while, threw away the cigarette butt, and took out another one, "Boss Xu is so smart, why didn't I think of that?"

Xu Ping was speechless. Hearing him mention women again, he asked: "Old Li, I don't seem to have heard you mention your wife and children?"

Li Qinghe pondered for a moment and put down the cigarette: "Li has not taken a wife yet, so naturally he has no heirs."

Xu Ping asked strangely: "Why, with your worth, you shouldn't have to worry about this?"

He is already in his forties and is not yet married. Logically speaking, someone who can be a shopkeeper and has plenty of money should not worry about finding a wife.

Or are you like Uncle Jiu who regard beautiful women as fierce tigers?

Li Qinghe sighed quietly: "Because I don't like women who like my money, and women who I like don't like my money."

The world is awake, Xu Ping gave it a thumbs up.

After breakfast, the two of them got off the boat, and the boat slowly sailed away from the dock to berth elsewhere and make way for the berth.

After some discussion, the two of them agreed on the terms with each other, then got on a rickshaw and went straight to a teahouse on the territory of the Black Tiger Gang.

On the way, Xu Ping was also admiring the largest city in the south.

This city already has the prototype of a modern city, with tall buildings, prosperous shipping, many vehicles on the road, and even street lights on the main streets.

Looking in the distance, a building under construction is rising from the ground.

"Boss Xu, is this your first time in the provincial capital?" Seeing Xu Ping's serious expression, Li Qinghe asked from the rickshaw next to him.

It must be the first time, at least in my memory, there is no picture of the provincial capital... Xu Ping nodded and commented: "It's not bad, it's quite prosperous."

Li Qinghe chuckled and said, "Actually, I was shocked when I came here for the first time. I thought I was in another world."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh: "It was at that time that Boss Zhao realized how big this day was, and decided to expand his business to the provincial capital, move his family, and establish a foothold here."

"It's just that we took the wrong path." Xu Ping said calmly.

Li Qinghe nodded and looked at Xu Ping beside him, feeling as if he was in another world.

"Perhaps, this place is indeed very good, but it just doesn't belong to us."

Xu Ping shook his head and said: "When you have money, if you have enough money, anywhere can be yours."



Tianxiang Teahouse.

Among the imitation Western-style buildings, the teahouse is unique and still maintains its antique flavor.

It's just that the interior is reinforced with steel bars. The three-story teahouse is built in an extremely grand manner, covered with glazed tiles, and its feet are flying in the air.

When Xu Ping and Li Qinghe walked into the teahouse, the waiter in the lobby immediately came forward, bowed and greeted with a smile: "Two gentlemen, would you please go upstairs or sit in the lobby?"

Li Qinghe stepped forward and answered: "Let's go to the elegant room and make an appointment to talk about something."

The boy nodded and was about to lead the way when he suddenly asked: "The person you two gentlemen are making an appointment with is Mr. Feng Li from the Black Tiger Gang?"

Hearing the name of the Black Tiger Gang, the diners in the hall immediately looked at him with suspicion.

"Exactly, how do you know?"

"Well... Master Feng Li has arrived a long time ago and has been waiting in the private room for half an hour."

Xu Ping and Li Qinghe looked at each other, what's going on? They had already arrived about half an hour earlier than agreed, but the other party actually came so early.

Li Qinghe came to Xu Ping's side and lowered his voice and said: "Boss Xu, I'm afraid they did it deliberately and took the opportunity to cause trouble."

Xu Ping looked calm and said softly: "No problem, go meet them."

Seeing this, the boy's attitude became more respectful, even a little frightened, and he led the way cautiously, "Two gentlemen, please follow me."

After going upstairs to a private room, the waiter raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Gentlemen inside, the guests you are waiting for have arrived."

Until a voice came from the door: "Come in."

The boy then opened the door and invited Xu Ping and Li Qinghe in. He quickly went downstairs, as if this place was some kind of tiger's den.

As soon as he stepped into the room, several sharp eyes swept over him, and Xu Ping clearly felt that the fat man next to him trembled and almost softened.

There was only one person sitting at the table, with a white porcelain teapot on the table, and the rest were lined up to protect him.

Li Qinghe's breathing was rapid, and he had the urge to run away through the door.

Xu Ping was a little surprised. What kind of situation is this? Aren't you here to discuss business? Why did you feel weak as soon as you walked in?

Gubo

How can we talk about this?

"Lao Li, what's wrong with you?"

"The person sitting there is not Feng Li, he should be from the Black Tiger Gang..."

The two of them were talking softly, but were interrupted by a powerful man standing next to him: "Master Black Crow, what are you two whispering about now?"

Considering that we had dealt with him many times, his words were both a rebuke and a reminder.

Li Qinghe's face changed slightly. He had experienced the incident at least. He immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face and handed over his hands: "It turns out to be Mr. Black Crow. I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

Xu Ping stood next to him and used his qi-watching technique to sweep away as usual. He saw the man sitting there with a withered face and blood clouds on his face. He must have killed too many people.

Looking again, the blood cloud stagnated and surrounded his forehead, like a big word "danger" nailed on his forehead.

"Where are you boss Zhao? I heard that there was an accident at the dock. Has the construction period been delayed?" The Black Crow from the Black Tiger Gang didn't even look at Xu Ping. He probably thought he was a follower, follower or something like that.

Just looking at Li Qinghe and frowning, he asked.

Li Qinghe choked for a moment. The tragedy at Renjia Town Wharf must have been in the newspapers. Could it be that this person doesn't read newspapers and pay attention to current affairs?

How did he know that the newspaper only mentioned that there were nearly a hundred casualties, and Boss Zhao was among those nearly a hundred.

"Lord Black Crow, our boss Zhao died at the dock. The person in charge now is this boss Xu."

Li Qinghe introduced him, and everyone turned their eyes to Xu Ping. He suddenly felt that his pressure was greatly reduced.

He really didn't want to deal with these beasts unless necessary.

"Dead!" Black Crow's face showed no emotion until now, and he asked hurriedly: "What about Mr. Henry and his son?"

Xu Ping sat down opposite him and said calmly: "He's dead too."

Seeing him sitting down opposite, Black Crow was stunned for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Boss Xu, you are very courageous."

"If you don't have the courage, how can I discuss this business with you?"

If it was just a simple lumber business, the adopted son of the Black Tiger Gang would certainly not have time to talk about such an insignificant business at this juncture.

Xu Ping felt that his guess was definitely correct. The next moment, the other party would enter the topic.

Unexpectedly, the black crow did not follow the routine and said directly: "Business aside, I have been waiting here for an hour in vain. How can I settle the account?"

Li Qinghe's face changed drastically. How could he dare to say that it was you who came early? He hurriedly apologized again: "Sir, it was on our way..."

"I didn't ask you."

Black Crow's face darkened and he looked at Xu Ping: "Tell me, how should this account be settled?"

Since you don't play by the rules, I won't play by the rules... Xu Ping stood up directly: "Since you are not in the mood to discuss business, Lao Li, let's go."

"boom!"

The black crow slapped the table, and the white porcelain teapot shook to the ground. It shattered into pieces with a bang, and the fragments flew several meters away.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Several weapons were revealed, gleaming with cold light.

Li Qinghe groaned in his heart, didn't he agree to pretend to agree to the other party, wait for the opportunity to collect evidence, and then report it to the police station.

You...why don't you play your cards according to the routine?

My life is over!

Xu Ping looked up at the people blocking the door, then looked at Black Crow, "Why, does the Black Tiger Gang do business by force buying and selling?"

As he said that, he took out a stack of contracts from his pocket, slapped it, and threw it on the table: "In this case, you can find whoever you want to make a fortune in this day's business."

"Old Li, tomorrow we will burn the dock we built."

Looking at the impudent Xu Ping in front of him, Black Crow's face gradually darkened, as if a storm was brewing. The next moment, he suddenly laughed out loud:

"good!"

"I admire talents like you. Unlike that guy named Zhao, who is always grinding and talking, and can't do anything without money."

"Come on, boss Xu, let's talk."

Li Qinghe was startled for a moment, and the cold sweat on his forehead slipped quietly. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He thought that he would be chopped into pieces in the next second, but it turned out to be like this.

He couldn't help but look at Xu Ping and complained in his heart, next time you want to change the script, could you please let me know in advance? If you scare someone, you will scare them to death.

Xu Ping had already noticed that there was no murderous intent in the eyes of the man in front of him, so he must have just wanted to test them.

Do you have sincerity to make this deal?

After sitting down again, Black Crow reached out to the table, suddenly suspended in the air, and shouted loudly outside: "Where are you, didn't you hear that the teapot was broken? Hurry up and bring the tea."

Turning around, he looked at Xu Ping with a serious look on his face: "Boss Xu, right? You just said that the dock has been built, but you really meant it."

It seems that this person also came with a mission... Xu Ping smiled slightly: "Of course it is true. How can a few demons from the White Lotus Sect stop me."

"good!"

The black crow couldn't help but be delighted: "Where's the warehouse? Has it been built?"

Li Qinghe's heart tightened and he finally got to the topic.

Their original plan was to find out the location of the warehouse through business, secretly notify the police station, and rescue those innocent people first.

Li Qinghe felt that there was only so much they could do.

And after the thing is done, you need to run away immediately.

Xu Ping pondered for a moment and shook his head: "To be honest, the warehouse is not complete yet and we encountered some problems."

Black Crow's expression changed when he heard this: "Boss Xu, Boss Zhao sent word before that there was a boy selling coffins who refused to give way. Didn't the foreigners say that they would be responsible for handling it? Haven't they dealt with him yet?"

Brother, I have solved them, and now they are in front of you... Xu Ping said with a smile: "Not really, it's just that it's not easy to tell the craftsmen what the specific goods are, and how to build the warehouse. All craftsmen are

I was confused, which delayed the construction schedule."

"How large the aisles should be, how to lay them out, how big the shelves should be, and how to place them. These are all questions."

Hearing that this kind of matter was being delayed, Black Crow looked a little anxious and said: "Boss Xu, our gang leader personally ordered this matter. Nowadays, the investigation in the provincial capital is strict. Although we are taking care of it, if we are caught and exposed,

It will be difficult to handle, so your town must speed up the progress."

That's almost it... Xu Ping finally explained the purpose of his visit and said: "So, we want to take a look at your warehouse. We can draw a drawing based on the appearance of your warehouse and let the craftsmen build it according to the model. Is it convenient?

"

When Black Crow heard this, he felt a little wary. He saw the stack of contracts on the table and thought of his father's urging.

Now that Beisha is dead and my adopted father is old, he doesn't have many years to live. If I don't do something good, I can make more money for the gang.

If the fight for the position of gang leader fails in the future...

After thinking about this, he was determined and said directly: "Okay, I will ask Xiaofeng to take you there later. The location is..."

"Dong dong dong!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came in, "Masters, I'm here to serve you tea."

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping was suddenly startled. The voice was too clear. Although he deliberately suppressed it, he still heard it.

It's an acquaintance.
