Chapter 736: One Mountain Cannot Tolerate Two Tigers
Before long, the uninjured attacker walked in.
He Yuzhu didn't even lift his eyelids, asking coldly, "Weren't there two? Why did only one come? Where is the other one?"
Abiao gritted his teeth and replied, "The other one was shot and is in the hospital getting treated."
He Yuzhu sneered, "This brother, which of you two is the mastermind, and which is the accomplice?"
Abiao stiffened his neck, "Why do you have so much to say?"
Before the words had even faded, He Yuzhu slapped the sandalwood table, and the entire table shattered into pieces.
Abiao instinctively wanted to pull a Dagger from his clothes, but He Yuzhu flashed forward, fast as lightning, and kicked Abiao hard in the lower abdomen.
With a muffled "Bang!", Abiao flew several meters, slammed heavily into the wall, and couldn't climb back up for a long time.
Boss Li's face turned livid, and he slammed the table, "Mr. He, have you played enough?"
"Not enough. Call out the mastermind." He Yuzhu said every word clearly, his tone filled with murderous intent.
Boss Li's face turned pale instantly, and his legs were even shaking.
He had heard those rumors before but hadn't fully believed them; only today did he see a god of slaughter standing before him with his own eyes.
"Someone, call Xiaozhuang over too." Boss Li tried his best to steady his tone.
Before long, that Xiaozhuang, who had bought the small bronze tripod from Xu Damao, walked in.
He wore a mohawk, walked with a swagger, and his eyes were full of arrogance and disdain—evidently, he still didn't know what had happened in the room.
As soon as Xu Damao saw him, his eyes turned red, and he cursed, "You surnamed Zhuang, you bastard! You bought something from me, and when you realized you'd misjudged it, you sent people to waylay me!"
A Zhuang sneered, his face full of contempt, "You have the nerve to speak after selling fakes? Beating you up is getting off light. If we were back in Hong Kong, after doing something like this, you'd be thrown into the sea to feed the turtles."
Xu Damao said angrily, "I didn't even know if it was real or fake myself! If you really wanted to solve the problem, couldn't you have come to ask me first?"
Before he finished speaking, He Yuzhu moved, his fist striking A Zhuang's chest like lightning.
A Zhuang didn't even have time to scream before he flew backward and landed heavily on the ground.
He Yuzhu didn't stop; he stepped forward, raised his foot, and brought it down—with a "Crack!", A Zhuang's lower leg was snapped.
The sound of bone breaking rang out, and everyone present felt their scalp tingle.
A Zhuang was convulsing all over from the pain.
He Yuzhu said coldly, "I don't care about the rules on your side, but you don't get to run wild in Si Jiu Cheng. Go back and tell your people: if anyone dares to come to Si Jiu Cheng to cause trouble, Master He will break their legs."
A Zhuang was completely crushed by that god-of-slaughter-like aura, trembling all over as he begged for mercy, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... It was this little one who was blind... This little one will never dare again..."
Boss Li sat in his chair, his face deathly pale, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead one after another, his hands trembling slightly.
He Yuzhu turned to look at the other attacker, who was trembling all over in fear.
"Xu Damao, Liu Laoda, Liu Laoer, are you dead? You see your enemy and you're not moving? Hit him however you want!"
As soon as Xu Damao heard this, he was like a lit powder keg; he rushed up with Liu Laoda and Liu Laoer, surrounded the attacker, and rained down punches and kicks like raindrops.
The man tried to fight back, but He Yuzhu kicked him, snapping his lower leg on the spot, and he couldn't crawl up again.
Xu Damao's eyes were red; he stepped forward and kicked the man again, breaking his other leg as well.
Boss Li was shaking all over, his voice changing pitch, "Mr... Mr. He, have you played enough?"
He Yuzhu laughed, "Not enough. There's still one lying in the hospital; he needs treatment, he needs recovery. See who you're going to make pay for it."
Boss Li was so angry his face turned white, and he gritted his teeth, "How... how much do you want?"
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao, "This is your business; it has nothing to do with me."
Liu Laoda gritted his teeth, his eyes full of hatred, and said loudly, "It can't be less, it can't be less than two hundred thousand!"
He Yuzhu turned his head, his gaze landing on Boss Li's face.
Boss Li shuddered, clenched his fists, and shouted, "Abiao... no, Lao Cao, get the money, see them out."
When Xu Damao walked out carrying two hundred thousand in cash, he felt like he was walking on clouds, his mouth stretched almost to his ears.
As he walked, he kept muttering, "Master Zhu! Master Zhu! I only now realize that you are the greatest Buddha in heaven and earth! I'm sorry, I was wrong about everything before! I will never dare to trouble you again!"
He Yuzhu chuckled and said lazily, "Spare me that; my ears have grown calluses from hearing it. Hurry up and get that piece of jade back for me."
Xu Damao patted his chest, "Tomorrow! I'll definitely have it delivered to your house tomorrow!"
After He Yuzhu left, Deputy General Manager Cao leaned in close to Boss Li and whispered, "Boss, isn't this man surnamed He too arrogant? Should we file a complaint with the city? After all, we were invited by the city."
Boss Li pondered for a long time before saying, "This is a matter for people of the underworld; I think we should let it go. Even if we really went to the city, I'm afraid we wouldn't gain any advantage. He Yuzhu doing this today is not about the wine; he is telling us that the Hong Kong way doesn't work here, and he is also setting rules for us, perhaps even wanting us to pass the word back to Hong Kong..."
Deputy General Manager Cao said, "The boss is wise; I didn't think of that level. But we can't just swallow this insult."
Boss Li smiled, "One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. Go tell Cheng Shao about this; he might end up clashing with He Yuzhu, and we can sit back and reap the rewards."
Deputy General Manager Cao smiled deviously, "The boss is indeed far-sighted; I will definitely do as you say."
Boss Li mused, "You must be careful with the proportions; we must stay in the shadows."
Deputy General Manager Cao nodded, "I understand."
Abiao, on the ground, said indignantly, "Boss Li, you can't let that brat He Yuzhu go; he's too arrogant!"
Boss Li's face darkened, "Abiao, you went too far today. After returning to Hong Kong, go to the real estate company and handle the demolitions."
Abiao lowered his head, "Boss, I know I was wrong, please give me another chance!"
Boss Li looked to the side, "Xiaozhuang, you caused this whole thing. Don't follow me anymore; go to the lower-level companies to get some experience."
The next day, Xu Damao came running over, handing over a double-linked Jade Bi that was snow-white all over with a slight reddish tint on the side.
He Yuzhu took it, looked at it, and immediately recognized it as an ancient artifact, smiling as he said, "Damao, you have quite a few good things, kid."
Xu Damao said with a cheeky grin, "Master Zhu, if this thing were taken out to be sold, it would be worth at least seventy or eighty thousand."
He Yuzhu laughed, "Helping you get back two hundred thousand this time, you didn't lose out."
Xu Damao squinted and said happily, "True, true, my wife was overjoyed when she found out I got back so much money for her brother."
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another four months went by.
He Zheng's company was running quite smoothly, but Chen Xueru had run into big trouble.
The plot of land she had managed to acquire with such difficulty, where the clothing factory was currently under construction, suddenly received a notice to suspend work due to a property rights dispute.
Chen Xueru returned home and racked her brains, but she could not figure out who was playing tricks behind the scenes.
He Yuzhu had a bad premonition and said, "Xueru, I think you are implicated because of me this time. I suspect that Boss Li is the one causing trouble behind the scenes; it is I who have affected you."
Chen Xueru asked, "Then what should we do?"
He Yuzhu said, "Your clothing factory has 51% state-owned shares, yet someone is giving you trouble because of me. Think about it from this angle: what kind of person has the ability and authority to do this?"
Chen Xueru was stunned after hearing this: "If you put it that way, I can think of one person—Cheng Shao."
He Yuzhu's heart tightened as memories of the past flooded his mind. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Xueru, you should shed your skin like a golden cicada. Use Xiao E to register another clothing company with Hong Kong capital, and slowly transfer the business of Xueru Clothing over."
Chen Xueru had always been obedient to He Yuzhu, but this time she shook her head: "No. I must hold onto this company. There are so many people in the factory; what will they do if they lose their jobs?"
He Yuzhu said, "But the other party is very powerful, and this time they are coming for me; you cannot stop them."
