Chapter 262

Chiang Mai, Hotel District!

The largest gambling den hotel—Jin Bi Hui Huang!

"Brother Wen, someone is looking for you."

In a banquet hall on the third floor, Ming Wen, the Person in Charge of the Ming Family in Chiang Mai, was entertaining guests.

At this time,

a subordinate walked in, leaned close to Ming Wen's ear, and spoke in a low voice.

Ming Wen furrowed his brow, surprised:

"Who is looking for me? Did he say who he is?"

The subordinate said in a low voice: "He says he is A Long, the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society!"

"What?"

Hearing the subordinate's words, the atmosphere in the entire banquet hall instantly became solemn.

Although for this the Qinglong Society spent a lot of money, sparing no expense to continuously purchase firepower, to guarantee consumption during training.

And,

even compared to regular armed personnel, the Qinglong Society's combat power was not inferior at all.

Everyone had to keep a low profile, lest they be made into the bird that sticks out its head and be targeted by the Thai Royal Family.

With the passage of time, the overall combat power of the entire Qinglong Society grew several times over compared to when it was first established.

So the members of the Qinglong Society did not launch operations, but instead conducted regular training in the Qinglong Training Camp.

However, the Qinglong Society elites trained this way had terrifying combat power.

The Qinglong Society integrated the entire Chiang Rai Province very smoothly, while recruiting soldiers and buying horses, its strength made the Four Great Families feel a headache.

All of this was no longer a secret throughout Southeast Asia.

Since the Qinglong Society became famous in one battle in Chiang Rai Province and unified the various forces in Chiang Rai Province, it had been almost one month.

Some members newly recruited into the Qinglong Society, under the training of the Qinglong Twelve Halls, erupted with shocking power.

Within Chiang Rai Province, there were no other forces that could contend with the Qinglong Society.

And many forces had defected to the Qinglong Society.

This scene shocked many people.

But it had to be said, when police cars and armed personnel patrolled the streets, and police sirens kept sounding, many people felt a sense of security.

After China Azure Dragon won against Equator Xishi one week ago and advanced to the Ancient Thai War finals.

At the same time,

During this period,

In such a short time, Southeast Asia suddenly produced such a huge force, naturally attracting the attention, nervousness, vigilance, and fear of all forces!

However,

The power of funds was very strong!

The Qinglong Society was famous throughout Southeast Asia!

But,

Ming Wen slightly furrowed his brow, his gaze terrifyingly cold.

During this period, as the Ancient Thai War finals approached, the Thai Royal Family actually launched an action.

Even though in the various gambling den hotels, underground quan chang, and other venues in Chiang Rai Province, only a very small number of people were stationed.

Unknowingly, the Qinglong Society had made Vincent of the Southeast Asia Martial Arts Alliance, as well as various Thai Boxing Training Camps, the Rishima Yamaguchi-gumi, and others, dare not act rashly.

During this period, as the Qinglong Society grew stronger and stronger with abundant funds, it now had over two thousand people.

For a time,

The Qinglong Society became a force in Southeast Asia that no one dared to ignore.

Although the action of the Thai Royal Family did not achieve any substantial Town Ya effect.

Chiang Rai Province in Thailand South, near the Golden Triangle Region, had been completely controlled by the Qinglong Society.

The Qinglong Society's Dragon Head A Long was China Azure Dragon who advanced to the Ancient Thai War semi-finals.

Additionally,

After sweeping through Chiang Rai Province, the Qinglong Society's forces grew rapidly and swelled terribly!

At the beginning, the Qinglong Society only had a few hundred people!

The originally noisy scene quickly became quiet.

The Qinglong Society's influence grew larger and larger.

Every day in the provinces of various countries in Thailand South, police cars and armed personnel constantly went out, patrolling various places.

During this period,

Over two thousand people remained, often conducting bloody and cruel training in the Qinglong Society's training camp.

The training camp established by the Qinglong Society in Chiang Rai Province.

It had to be said,

So,

Various forces had to put away their slaughter knives about to start war.

Everyone turned all their gazes toward the final great battle of the Ancient Thai War to be held in more than ten days.

Recently, the various major forces in Southeast Asia were all in a stage of hiding their strength and biding their time.

Although after Chiang Rai Province was swept by the Qinglong Society, several great families were furious.

But,

As the finals of the "Ancient Thai War" drew near, all forces dared not make any radical moves, to avoid provoking the Thai Royal Family.

Therefore,

Inside the Ming Family's power base "Jin Bi Hui Huang" in Chiang Mai City, all of the Ming Family's core personnel merely drank some wine, entertained themselves a little, and restrained their subordinates, keeping a low profile during this period.

What Ming Wen did not expect was,

At this critical juncture, the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, "A Long", would actually come knocking.

He knew very well that A Long was the China Azure Dragon, a Super Expert in the final Grand Finals of this "Ancient Thai War".

He could not figure out why A Long would come to the Jin Bi Hui Huang in Chiang Mai to find him.

"The Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, A Long, how many people did he bring here?"

Ming Wen took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice.

"Nine people! He only brought nine people in total!" the subordinate reported.

Beside Ming Wen sat his Left and Right Arms, his capable subordinate — Chakun!

Chakun was a Thai South person, formerly a Top Expert at the Thai Boxing Training Camp, with considerable strength.

Later he retired and joined the Ming Family's Jin Bi Hui Huang in Chiang Mai.

Over these years, Chakun had campaigned east and west for the Ming Family, establishing meritorious service, and deeply earned Ming Wen's trust.

Upon hearing that the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, A Long, actually dared to come to Jin Bi Hui Huang with only this handful of people, he was instantly somewhat surprised.

Chakun took a deep drag of his cigarette, raised his head, and looked at Ming Wen:

"Brother Wen, this guy brought nine people and dares to come to our Jin Bi Hui Huang? What does he want to do?"

"Want to take advantage of this opportunity to finish him off?"

Chakun's conduct had always been heart cruel hand spicy.

Upon hearing that the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, recently famous throughout Southeast Asia at the height of the sun, actually dared to barge into the Jin Bi Hui Huang in Chiang Mai with only nine people.

He narrowed his eyes, and some ideas formed in his mind.

Ming Wen frowned and coldly snorted:

"This fellow has been very limelight recently; everything of our Ming Family in Chiang Rai Province was completely destroyed by him."

"Have to say, this guy is not easy to provoke!"

"However, didn't expect he would bring nine people and actually dare run to our Chiang Mai Jin Bi Hui Huang; he has a bit of guts!"

"Alright, bring them in, let me see what tricks this fellow wants to play?"

"The Chiang Rai Province matter hasn't been settled with him yet, and he actually dares to deliver himself to our door!"

A moment later.

Only to see Li Chengze and Shen Yan leading several Elites, following behind Chen Jie, walking unhurriedly into the Banquet Hall.

"Boss Ming, hello! Today we rashly disturb, hope you don't mind!"

After Chen Jie entered the Banquet Hall, he waved his hand at Li Chengze, letting him present a gift.

This time he came to negotiate, not to prepare for war with the "Chiang Mai Province" Jin Bi Hui Huang.

The Qinglong Society had unified Chiang Rai Province and already stood firm.

At this time, those who could be won over would naturally be won over, those who could be cooperated with would naturally be cooperated with.

Could not just blindly act recklessly.

Otherwise making too many enemies would not be of much help to the Qinglong Society's growth.

Of course,

If the other party doesn't know what's good for them, doesn't want to cooperate, and wants to obstruct the Qinglong Society's development.

Then no more courtesy; the Qinglong Society has never been the kind to swallow their anger.

Entering the door is a guest!

Ming Wen saw Chen Jie acting so tactfully, speaking so politely after entering, and even presenting a gift.

His complexion looked slightly better; he proactively stood up, extended his hand, and shook hands with Chen Jie:

"Brother A Long is too polite; worthy of being a powerhouse who fought into the 'Ancient Thai War' Grand Finals, admirable!"

"Really didn't expect Brother A Long to be so young, yet created such a large force as the Qinglong Society; a young person's mettle is truly extraordinary."

"What surprises me even more is that the Qinglong Society actually unified Chiang Rai Province overnight, famous throughout Southeast Asia!"

"Cannot help but admire the young! I, Ming Wen, have been in Chiang Mai Province for so many years and have lost my ambition; seeing Brother A Long, I cannot help but sigh with emotion!"

Ming Wen said with a hehe laugh, making it impossible to know his inner thoughts.

He looked very easygoing, very friendly.

But as the helmsman of the Ming Family in Chiang Mai, who could truly fathom his thoughts?

Chen Jie laughed heartily and likewise spoke politely:

"Boss Ming really thinks too highly of me; I just arrived in Southeast Asia not long ago, no matter from which aspect, I cannot compare to your Ming Family's forces in Southeast Asia!"

"The Qinglong Society's future development will still have to rely on Boss Ming's support."

"Everything in Chiang Rai Province was a misunderstanding; our Qinglong Society never thought to be enemies with your Ming Family, but back then Ming Cheng stood on the wrong position."

"So Ming Cheng's death was a friendly fire——!"

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Next, Chen Jie sat at the banquet in the Banquet Hall.

Because Chen Jie behaved very low-key and was not aggressive, giving Ming Wen enough face.

Therefore,

Ming Wen did not glare angrily.

He also did not flare up on the spot because the Qinglong Society had swept away the Ming Family's "Jin Bi Hui Huang" in Chiang Rai Province.

Have to say,

Compared to Ming Cheng of Chiang Rai Province, Ming Wen is far more deep.

Of course,

In terms of forces, Ming Wen's forces are much larger than Ming Cheng's.

At this time Ming Wen kept smiling, wanting to wait for Chen Jie to explain his purpose.

Among the various forces of Southeast Asia, Underground betting top prestige is very important.

If someone gives you face, you had best give others face.

That way, it is not easy to form enmity.

After everyone sat down, Ming Wen began introducing several of his confidant subordinates in the Banquet Hall to Chen Jie.

Next,

Ming Wen asked straight to the point:

"Brother A Long, you are now the favorite to win the final finals of the 'Ancient Thai War'."

"I know, you are very busy now, training every day."

"Today you came to our Chiang Mai Province's Jin Bi Hui Huang, what exactly is the matter?"

"Let's not beat around the bush anymore, I am a simple person, whatever there is, just say it!"

"If there's something, just say it straight!"

Shen Yan, sitting beside Chen Jie, poured a cup of plain boiled water for Chen Jie.

As a top-level boxer, Chen Jie generally does not drink alcohol.

Drinking alcohol numbs the nervous system, there is no benefit to oneself.

He picked up the plain boiled water, using water in place of wine, and said to Ming Wen:

"Very good, I most like dealing with straightforward people, then I will speak plainly."

"I came to Chiang Mai Jin Bi Hui Huang today, first to visit you, I have long heard of your prestige, seeing you today, truly extraordinary!"

"Second, I came to discuss a matter with you, hoping Boss Ming Wen can give Qinglong Society a face!"

Ming Wen narrowed his eyes slightly, calmly said:

"Speak, whatever it is just say it, if I can do it, rest assured, I will not say a single word of nonsense!"

"If I cannot do it, I believe you will not make things difficult for me either, right?"

Chen Jie laughed hehe, put down the cup he was drinking from, indifferently said:

"Boss Ming, Chiang Mai City's forces are complex, the underground boxing world's boxing venues also exceed ten, very hard to manage, right?"

"This place's forces are really a bit too many, our Qinglong Society is bored idle in Chiang Rai Province, nothing to do!"

"So, we want to come to Chiang Mai to develop, wondering if Boss Ming would mind?"

As soon as the words fell,

All subordinates beside Ming Wen, their faces all changed!

What does this mean?

Qinglong Society ultimately still wants to come to Chiang Mai?

Beside him Chakun inhaled a cigarette, gaze fierce staring at Chen Jie, deep voice said:

"A Long, what do you mean?"

"Your Qinglong Society wants to come to Chiang Mai to develop, first seeking out our Ming Family's Jin Bi Hui Huang, you want to start a war with us?"

"In Chiang Rai Province, you got a taste of sweetness, you want to repeat the same trick in Chiang Mai?"

"Hmph! Remind you, Chiang Mai Province's Jin Bi Hui Huang is different from Chiang Rai Province, even if we agree, our several thousand brothers under us will not agree!"

"If you think our Chiang Mai Province's Jin Bi Hui Huang is easy to chew, then go ahead and try!"

"Just afraid your Qinglong Society's appetite is too big, careful you collapse your teeth!"

Atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Another subordinate beside him, at this moment also harshly said:

"Our Chiang Mai's Jin Bi Hui Huang has operated here for decades."

"Even Tianyuan Group coming to Chiang Mai must give our Ming Family Elite face."

"A Long, you still haven't won the final championship of 'Ancient Thai War', haven't reached agreement with Thai Royal Family's forces."

"Kid, hope you aren't this aggressive, best to be a bit low-key."

"We don't want to start a war with your Qinglong Society, doesn't mean we're afraid of you!"

The entire Banquet Hall inside, atmosphere at this moment became very tense.

Ming Wen frowned slightly, stopped his several subordinates from speaking, raised head looking at Chen Jie said:

"Brother A Long, you had best make your words clear!"

"If you come to Chiang Mai Province to develop, want to start a war with our Ming Family's Jin Bi Hui Huang, you've found the wrong opponent!"

"Our Ming Family's principle is seeking wealth, don't want to form enmity with anyone, but absolutely will not tolerate being ridden over!"

"Can you understand my meaning?"

Clatter—!

At this time, the entire Banquet Hall inside, swords drawn and bows bent!

Everyone stood up, gazes looking toward Chen Jie's group.

Chen Jie raised head looked around one glance, then gaze fixed on Ming Wen, indifferently said:

"Boss Ming, you misunderstand, I came to find you, how could I first start a war with you?"

"If I wanted to start a war with your Ming Family, would I have need to come here?"

"In all of Chiang Mai Province, although the forces are currently complex and intertwined, there are truly only four that can be called large factions."

"First is Vincent of the Southeast Asia Martial Arts Alliance; this guy holds the advantage in underground boxing and has raked in not little money in Southeast Asian underground boxing."

"More importantly, the one backing this bastard is the 'Tianyuan Group'!"

"Your Ming Family's 'Jin Bi Hui Huang' may have quite decent forces, but in Chiang Mai Province it can only rank fourth."

"Ranked second is the Liu Family, third is the Riyashan Three Yamaguchi-gumi; they have been suppressing your Ming Family all along."

"I came this time to seek cooperation with you!"

"No hiding it from you — in Chiang Rai Province we have offended the Liu Family severely, practically reaching the point of fight to the death."

"Additionally Vincent, because of the underground boxing matter, suffered heavy losses and also wants to peel me alive!"

"I am a person without any very grand ideal, only wanting to guarantee my own benefit."

"Vincent, the Liu Family, the Rishima Yamaguchi-gumi — these three major forces press on me until I can't breathe."

"During this recent period, I don't even sleep soundly, constantly worrying they will make a move against our Qinglong Society!"

"In our China there is a saying: strike first to gain the upper hand!"

"Cooperate with me — how about it?"

Ming Wen, hearing this, frowned slightly, made no sound.

Indeed,

Among all forces in Chiang Mai Province, although the Ming Family's 'Jin Bi Hui Huang' has very large strength.

But compared to other forces, it merely ranks fourth.

During this period, the 'Jin Bi Hui Huang' gambling den business suffered a very large squeeze.

Even including the underground boxing arena, tourists are becoming fewer and fewer—!
