Chapter 222: with translation of chapter title
Jingkun took a good while to recover! His complexion finally returned to normal, and he kept telling himself not to get angry at this loser, or else he could anger him to death!
A Wu, besides being extremely money-hungry, is truly impeccable at handling matters—every task assigned to him is carried out cleanly and neatly, never slipping up.
Now, among his subordinates who can handle things, only A Wu is reliable—Da Ben Xiang is just a reckless brute, with no brains at all!
Sha Qiang can handle small tasks okay, but when faced with big matters he's utterly useless—compared to A Wu he's just a piece of trash! There's simply no basis for comparison!
Looking at the two sacks on the floor, he then asked, "Where did you find them?"
A Wu searched the liquor cabinet, took out a bottle of red wine from the corner, and also took two cups and placed them on the office desk.
He poured wine into the two cups, pushed one to Jingkun, and then replied, "Brother Kun! You're just overthinking it as an insider—this is easy to figure out."
"Sha Qiang and Tianhong led people to turn Gangdao upside down, but still couldn't find anyone."
"Where could they hide then? Only Prosperous Corner, the scene of the incident! Hiding under the lights is pretty clever, but… they ran into me."
"In this area, I'm the expert! As long as there's a target, just casually look around and they won't be able to hide!"
Until now, Jingkun finally felt somewhat relieved—A Wu truly gets things done! Then he took out ten thousand dollars from the drawer and threw it directly to A Wu.
He said with a smile, "A Wu! Great job!"
A Wu held the wine cup in one hand and caught the bills with the other, stuffing them straight into his pocket.
He said with a smile, flattering, "Brother Kun! It's all thanks to your merit—if we weren't doing things under your banner, finding these two losers wouldn't be easy either."
"Nowadays in Prosperous Corner, who doesn't say Brother Kun is righteous? Having heard you're looking for these two losers, everyone is helping wholeheartedly."
Jingkun hearing A Wu say that, he nodded with a beaming smile—this flattery was spot on! It hit right where it counts in Jingkun's heart.
At this moment, Jingkun thought of his guide, waiting for Jianguo to return from Wanwan this time—no matter what, he wanted to find two good ones for him to properly thank him.
Only now did Jingkun realize how wonderful the points Jianguo made were—they're truly useful!
Looking at the two gunmen on the floor, Jingkun's eyes were filled with hatred!
These two bastards—where couldn't they have caused trouble? They had to cause trouble on his turf!
This time, fortunately A Xin is unharmed—if something went wrong, even with a hundred mouths he couldn't explain it clearly, the consequences would be too severe!
Jingkun came up to the two sacks and gave them a fierce kicking until he was exhausted and stopped.
He ordered A Wu, "Send them to Tianhong—now A Xin isn't in Gangdao, so how to deal with these two losers is up to him!"
A Wu nodded, downed the red wine in one gulp, wiped his mouth, picked up the two sacks and left.
He's willing to do this job—maybe he can even pick up some extra benefits! Tianhong is also generous!
……
Wanwan North Taiwan
Li Xin saw Zhongyong Bo and his group off; a party of six arrived at the hotel arranged by Zhongyong Bo.
Bo Shu is getting older, and after drinking quite a bit, upon reaching the hotel room he just buried his head and slept.
Yaowen followed Li Xin to his room, and after sitting down he asked, "A Xin! When should we go pay our respects? I need to prepare as well."
Li Xin glanced at Jianjun, and Jianjun gave him a gesture.
He then replied, "Yaowen! Tomorrow you and Bo Shu go buy some gifts—Bo Shu knows what should be bought—and tomorrow we'll go directly to their door."
Yaowen nodded and said, "Sure! I'll handle this with Bo Shu! I'll go rest too—today's been a bit tiring."
Seeing Yaowen off, Jianjun reported to Li Xin, "Boss! Our people can arrive tonight—we're going through Hanbin's channel, no problem."
Li Xin said, "Mm! That's good! If the talks fall through, we should have a backup plan—worst case, we can just give up the Wanwan market!"
"Damn it! Still want to give me a dirty look? I'll see what this bunch of old graduates is capable of."
Jianjun said expressionlessly, "Boss! If the talks fall through, we'll take them out—I've already given a heads-up to the brothers who came by boat, had them leave a few people on the ship, and if things go wrong we'll break out fighting."
Li Xin waved his hand and replied with a smile, "It's not that serious—I'm just preparing for the worst; if we can talk, there's no need to fight!"
After taking a shower and resting until evening, Li Xin brought Jianjun and two others to the North Taiwan Scholars Grove night market.
This place is listed as North Taiwan, one of its liveliest attractions—it is Wanwan's largest and most famous night market.
One can sample various famous Wanwan snacks, such as fried large chicken cutlet, Scholars Grove large sausage, Shanghai shengjian buns, and other regional delicacies.
Besides food, the Scholars Grove night market also offers rich shopping and entertainment facilities.
Several people strolled leisurely, and compared to the Yau Ma Tei night market in Gangdao, there are great differences.
The Scholars Grove night market is much more prosperous; all along the way the crowds of night‑goers packed the narrow passage to the point of being water‑tight, extraordinarily lively.
In the night market, various shops and stalls stand side by side—snack stalls, clothing stores, boutiques, shoe shops, record shops, sporting goods—you name it, they have it; as long as it's trendy on the market, you can find it here.
Li Xin, Jianguo, and A Bu each held a large chicken cutlet, eating as they walked.
Especially A Bu, who even specially bought a backpack filled with various tasty things—just the sausages alone he bought several sticks.
Jianjun followed along and strolled for a while, but he simply couldn't stand it anymore and said to Li Xin, "Boss! You three go on strolling! I'm going back to rest—this place isn't for me."
Li Xin and the two others were happily strolling, and upon hearing Jianjun say that, they just waved at him: "Go on! We three will play a bit longer."
A Bu also nodded—this place is practically his paradise, there's too much delicious food, and whenever he sees something he just wants to try it.
After Jianjun left, the three of them would stop whenever they saw a snack stall to buy a little taste.
They hadn't even eaten dinner, but after strolling around they were already full!
A Bu saw a stall selling oyster omelet and steamed‑fried meat balls, couldn't take his eyes off it—those meat balls looked delicious.
Seeing the long queue, A Bu said to Li Xin, "Boss, you two go ahead and stroll—I'll wait in line here."
Li Xin glanced at the stall, nodded in agreement—he also wanted to try the meat balls' flavor.
Because the crowd was too thick, Li Xin brought Jianguo to a drink shop.
Upon entering, he called out to the server, "Three cups of pineapple water, with ice!"
The server's voice was soft and sweet, and she replied with a smile, "Please wait a moment—it'll be ready right away!"
The young lady's two sentences made Jianguo feel weak all over from listening.
He whispered, "Boss, this Wanwan girl's speech is too sweet—how adorable!"
Li Xin glared at this guy—such a useless loser, truly embarrassing!
You can't even stand hearing a voice?
This is just a regional trait—not only girls talk like that, boys are no exception!
They speak so softly!
