Chapter 185

Copper Gong Bay Hongdu Nightclub, this is one of several nightclubs that Tianhong has in Copper Gong Bay.

In the past six months, besides that bar, Tianhong has opened a nightclub on every street, a total of nine nightclubs, spending all the borrowed money.

He also took over twenty million from Li Xin, each venue is not small scale, they had to lose a bit in the first two months, but things have improved a lot recently.

Over time, customers out for fun know that any nightspot flashing the Hongdu sign belongs to the property of Thus line: Prosperity Copper Gong Bay Thus line: Leader Luotianhong.

Safety is guaranteed, not to mention there are no messy troubles; you can play with peace of mind.

Gradually, business picked up; now daily income is not low.

Earlier, the nightclub bosses within Tianhong's territory were still worried he would keep opening shops, which would make them suffer.

Unexpectedly, after opening these nine, Luotianhong withdrew, which relieved the bosses considerably.

This way everyone has food to eat, just a little less than before, at least there's still something to eat!

Ji Ge and Xiao Mian Hu are now drinking in a private room; Ji Ge's face is flushed, looking at the wine bottles on the table, the two haven't drunk little.

Ji Ge gulped down the wine in his cup, then complained drunkenly:

"Xiao Mian Hu, when will the support from East Prosperity arrive? I can barely hold on."

"If your people don't come soon, I won't want that bar's shares; going on like this, my position as Thus line: Leader is about to be lost!"

Xiao Mian Hu smiled and said: "Ji Ge, don't be anxious; soon, my people can be dispatched right away; you just need to hold on, hold on."

"You Thus line: Prosperity on this island still have many Thus line: Leaders! You can first borrow troops from them, and the settlement fees and medical expenses can be recouped from the business."

"I won't let you lose out; between us, there's also the connection with the Dutch Iron Monkey; I will definitely not screw you over, rest assured!"

Ji Ge hearing Xiao Mian Hu say this, hesitated a bit and said:

"Xiao Mian Hu, you should be clear, our business can be done but not spoken of; otherwise, Mr. Jiang won't let me off."

"I also have no reason to borrow troops; Lian Haolong just smashes shops without taking territory, how are you letting me find others to borrow troops?"

Xiao Mian Hu's eyes held contempt; this fence-sitter wants to eat meat but fears getting beaten!

Seeing great profits, he immediately pounced; now encountering a little difficulty, he just wants to shrink back—where in the world is there such a good deal?

Xiao Mian Hu coaxed: "I've heard you have a good relationship with Immortal Trust; you can go ask him for help! Would he still watch you get beaten and do nothing?"

Ji Ge was startled by Xiao Mian Hu's words, giving a jolt; even the wine sobered him up a bit.

A Xin might not care about other matters, but this inside-out betrayal will let A Xin know.

He would die without knowing how he died; this absolutely cannot be done.

He immediately refused: "Impossible, this absolutely won't work; you'd better think of a solution fast, otherwise I'll quit, and I won't want the bar's shares either!"

Xiao Mian Hu hurriedly said: "Ji Ge, you are after all an elder of Thus line: Prosperity, an old man who fought for the realm with Jiang Zhen; could Thus line: Prosperity really just watch you get beaten and do nothing?"

"Don't worry; Lian Haolong isn't occupying your turf now, is he? The bar's losses aren't charged to your head either; rest easy!"

Ji Ge's expression hesitated; the bar's profits are too huge, he can't bear to let go, yet he doesn't dare seek help elsewhere, his heart is tangled enough to make him furious!

After the gathering, Ji Ge returned to Xihuan Tuodi, still thinking about how to handle this!

Just after getting out of the car, he was suddenly hacked by seven or eight knife-wielders; the attack was measured, looking terrible outside but actually not serious.

Ji Ge never expected that at the entrance of his Tuodi, there would still be people daring to ambush him.

Ji Ge's few close aides, before they could even get out of the car, were already chopped down inside the vehicle.

"Quick, come! I've been ambushed, hurry and save me!"

Ji Ge shouted while running.

Let's not even mention, Ji Ge's talent for escaping is superb! After being hacked several times, he can still run at full speed, covered in blood, without slowing down.

You really can run, Ji Ge!

Thus line: Prosperity's lackeys heard Ji Ge's cry for help, hurriedly grabbed weapons and rushed out.

They shouted loudly: "Protect Ji Ge, take out those few people!"

By the time they reached Ji Ge, those knife-wielders had already run far away.

Their mission was to chop Ba Ji, not to kill Ba Ji; seeing the Thus line: Prosperity people come out, they hurriedly fled on foot.

The mission's done; what are they waiting for if not to run?

The lackeys, scrambling, sent Ji Ge to the hospital; by the time they arrived, Ji Ge had passed out from excessive blood loss.

Li Xin received the news the next day, hung up the phone, and nodded satisfactorily.

Lian Haolong's work is still reliable, done with skill; Ji Ge was stabbed several times but none were fatal; after staying in the hospital a while, he'll be fine—this time he should be much more peaceful.

What's the point of this! Last time we didn't even know who hacked him, and to this day we still haven't found the culprit.

This time, let's see if he still dares to jump around!

Li Xin bought a fruit basket, had Jianguo drive to the hospital; he needed to go see Ji Ge.

Nowadays, there aren't many people who value loyalty as much as he does!

Going to visit a patient, and still bringing fruit!

Pushing open the ward door, I saw Ji Ge wrapped head to toe in bandages, tightly bound.

This time his head wasn't wrapped; his face was deathly pale, as if he were about to pass, with no color at all, indicating he'd lost a lot of blood.

Placing the fruit basket on Ji Ge's bedside table, he smiled and asked: "Are you okay? What got you hacked this time? This is the second time in half a year!"

Ji Ge was very weak, his voice tiny, as he complained tearfully to Li Xin:

"A Xin, you gotta give me justice! It's definitely that useless Lian Haolong who did it; I've recently offended him, this time it's absolutely him."

Li Xin pretended to understand while feigning confusion, furrowed his brow and asked: "What was it over that you clashed with him? At the meeting, Mr. Jiang asked you, but you didn't say."

Ji Ge felt more wronged the more he thought about it, tears streaming down; he couldn't bring himself to say how this started.

Otherwise, A Xin would want to kill him!

Li Xin, not making a big deal either, reached into his pocket, took out a red envelope, and placed it on his bedside.

He said: "This time, just take it as a lesson; don't go looking for trouble when there's none; if there's a next time, you might not be so lucky."

You definitely can understand my words; we get along well, that's why I'm saying a few things to you, otherwise I wouldn't care if you go die, you know the score in your heart.

You're an old hand in the martial world, you know what money you can take and what you can't, don't you?

I'll avenge this grudge for you, but it's not Lian Haolong; rest now, I'm leaving!

Ji Ge saw Li Xin leave the ward, his regret turning his guts green!

A Xin and he have always been on good terms; he just had A Xin make a raft at the meeting, A Xin also didn't hold it against him, this time, it seems A Xin is really angry!

A Xin said he would take revenge for him; he knows exactly who the target is—besides Xiao Mian Hu, there's nobody else!

As for whether to give Xiao Mian Hu a heads‑up?

Don't joke!

It's just a mutually exploitative relationship; whether Xiao Mian Hu lives or dies, what does it have to do with him?
