Chapter 105: Targeted by the Ni Family?

Returning to the bar, Chen Mo called over Li Jie.

"Have you found out the background of those people from yesterday?"

Li Jie nodded: "Our brothers followed those men the whole time and watched them enter the Ni Family's villa."

"The Ni Family?" Chen Mo frowned deeply.

Why would the Ni Family have their eyes on him?

One was in Wang Jiao, the other in Jianshazui — the two had absolutely nothing to do with each other.

The only possible connection was Liu Yaozu.

Chen Mo had a vague suspicion in his heart: the Ni Family might also have their eyes on the three hundred million in bonds in Lu Bin Sun's hands.

Otherwise, Chen Mo truly could not find a reason for the Ni Family to target him.

Chen Mo was, after all, a top boss of Great Prosperity — the Ni Family wouldn't go after him just over a piece of land belonging to Liu Yaozu.

"Go make preparations. In a bit, secretly bring Lu Bin Sun to the training ground and have the brothers protect him well. Keep guarding the bar as usual so people think Lu Bin Sun is still here."

If the Ni Family really had their eyes on the bonds in Lu Bin Sun's hands, then staying at Yinhejiuba was no longer safe.

Among all the territory in Chen Mo's hands, the training ground in Quanwan was the safest.

Dozens of retired soldiers and a stash of weapons were hidden there — even if the Ni Family wanted to storm in and snatch someone, it would be impossible.

Unless over a hundred men with guns staged a major operation.

Li Jie immediately understood Chen Mo's meaning and set about making arrangements right away.

Chen Mo returned to his office. Lu Bin Sun was sitting on the sofa, leisurely sipping tea.

"Mr. Sun, I originally planned to let you make do here for a few days, but now it looks like that won't work."

Lu Bin Sun was startled and quickly asked, "What happened? Did Liu Yaozu's men find their way here?"

"It's not Liu Yaozu. Liu Yaozu isn't even on my radar yet.

The Ni Family — do you know them?"

"The Ni Family? Back when Ni Kun was still alive, I dealt with them a few times, but there was no real relationship."

"Is it possible the Ni Family knows about those bonds?"

Lu Bin Sun thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"Hard to say. These bonds were secretly traded on the black market by my daughter before she passed away. Even the bank doesn't know these bonds are in my hands.

The only ones who should know about these bonds are Liu Yaozu and myself.

But nothing is absolute — didn't Mr. Chen also find out, and get his hands on the bonds?

Given the Ni Family's power in Jianshazui, it's not impossible that they know about these bonds."

Lu Bin Sun's words gave Chen Mo a slight sense of worry.

After sending Lu Bin Sun off, Chen Mo began to think of countermeasures.

Liu Yaozu, Chen Mo could deal with casually.

But the Ni Family was different.

The Five Great Families under their command had deep-rooted and extraordinary power in Jianshazui.

What was more, they were all drug dealers, and the Ni Family was the biggest drug boss in all of Gangdao.

Although they only occupied half of Jianshazui, few people in all of Gangdao were willing to provoke them.

Unless the conflict of interest was too great, who would want to provoke a bunch of ruthless drug dealers?

Ever since Ni Kun was assassinated a year ago, the Ni Family had upgraded the security of their core members by a level, always traveling with a crowd of men wherever they went.

Assassinating a member of the Ni Family was extremely difficult.

Although Chen Mo was not yet sure why the Ni Family had targeted him, being targeted by the Ni Family was troublesome in itself.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Mo finally made up his mind: let the Ni Family fall into chaos from within first.

A fortress is easiest to breach from the inside.

Right now, the Five Great Families under the Ni Family appeared on the surface to still be united as one with the Ni Family, but in secret they had long harbored their own ulterior motives.

Ni Yongxiao wanted to lead the Ni Family's people to shake off the Five Great Families, leave the drug business behind, and clean up their act to go legitimate, but the timing was not yet right.

Among the Five Great Families under their command, four wanted to break free of the Ni Family and set up on their own.

It was just that Hei Gui and Guohua, because Ni Yongxiao held dirt on them, did not dare to make any rash moves.

Wen Cheng and Gan Di, on the other hand, lacked sufficient strength. Among the Five Great Families, if the other four didn't rebel, those two wouldn't dare to move either.

As for Han Chen, on the surface he kept a low profile. But among the Five Great Families, whether in strength or in scheming, the most formidable was him.

He had never had any intention of breaking away from the Ni Family.

Because he knew very well that as long as the Ni Family still existed, the police would focus their attention on the Ni Family.

The Ni Family was his shield.

Unfortunately, his wife Mary had colluded with his subordinate Liu Jianming to kill Ni Kun, and the hatred between the two sides was one of life and death.

It was just that Han Chen did not yet know about this.

Chen Mo decided to work with the conflicts among Guohua, Hei Gui, and Gan Di, as well as the fact that Han Chen's wife had killed Ni Kun.

First, let the Ni Family fall into chaos on its own.

Once the conflict between the Ni Family and the Five Great Families was provoked, the Ni Family's downfall would be close at hand.

When the time came, he might even reap the spoils as the fisherman and gain some benefits.

Just as Chen Mo had finished planning his move against the Ni Family, he received a call from Meng Na.

"Mo Ge, it's been several days and you haven't contacted me — I've missed you."

Even through the phone, Chen Mo could feel Meng Na's flirtatious energy.

Chen Mo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is Miss Meng Na calling to ask me out for dinner?"

"Liu Yaozu isn't home tonight. Mo Ge, want to come over for a late-night snack?"

Meng Na was very confident in her skills.

She was certain that, after their in-depth exchange last time, Chen Mo would absolutely not refuse another round.

"Go to your place? Isn't a hotel more convenient?"

"It's more exciting at home! I've prepared top-quality ingredients — I guarantee Mo Ge will eat to his heart's content."

"Is that so? I hope you prepared plenty. I need to eat my fill, you know."

The mobile phones these days still had serious sound leakage. Li Li, standing nearby, heard the contents of Chen Mo and Meng Na's call and kept rolling her eyes.

With so many women around him, he still went to other people's homes to fool around — truly shameless.

"What's wrong? Jealous?"

Li Li said in annoyance, "No. I'm just a secretary. Why would I be jealous?"

After spending a few days together and getting to know Chen Mo better, Li Li wasn't really afraid of him anymore.

Anyway, apart from occasionally being pulled into the lounge by Chen Mo for some exercise, he hadn't forced her to do anything.

The work was easy, and the pay was high.

Compared to her old days following Qian Wendi around setting up scams to cheat people out of money, her life now was countless times better.

Chen Mo gave the cushion a squeeze and ordered, "Go find Gao Jin and Tian Yang Sheng for me."

"Oh."

Hearing Chen Mo's instructions, Li Li hurried off to find them.

She was afraid that if she didn't leave now, she'd get dragged into the lounge again.

Before long, both Gao Jin and Tian Yang Sheng arrived.

"Ah Jin, have your men look into the Ni Family's recent situation in Jianshazui, and also look up the phone numbers of Ni Yongxiao, Han Chen, and Gan Di for me."

"Okay."

Though Gao Jin didn't know what Chen Mo was planning, he still nodded and agreed.

"Ah Sheng, tonight, you brothers bring your weapons, bring along a few trusted underlings, and come out with me."

"Mo Ge, should we bring the long ones?"

As soon as Tian Yang Sheng heard Chen Mo tell the brothers to bring weapons and underlings, he thought Chen Mo was planning a major operation.

Long guns were inconvenient, but the firepower was much fiercer.

"No need. Handguns will be enough."

It was just one Liu Yaozu — with only a dozen or so men under him. He and the Tian Yang Sheng brothers could handle it.

Bringing along a few more underlings was just to help out — carrying and lifting things, that's all.
