"How could you be here?" both said in unison.

As soon as the words were spoken, they reacted and smiled with relief.

Su Yang got up and walked towards Lin Yang, gave him a bear hug, and said with a smile: "Didn't expect to meet so soon; it seems you and I have a deep fate."

"Missed you to death; I haven't been able to eat well or sleep well for these ten days," Lin Yang said happily.

Then he changed the subject and asked: "What about you, how is your new life? Heard Yin Yun is a great beauty."

"Not bad, eating and drinking well," Su Yang smiled slightly.

"Damn, forgetting friends for beauty; I knew you were that kind of person," Lin Yang complained.

But there was no dissatisfaction in his tone.

For him, being able to meet again was already extremely lucky.

There is nothing more beautiful than meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

"Speaking of which, your new roommate Huang Hua has also entered, right?" Su Yang asked.

"Yes, I matched into the same death game," Lin Yang nodded.

Su Yang signaled him to sit down, then returned to his seat and said: "This game with the theme of hegemony is more difficult than any game we have played before; we must make full preparations now."

"I already inquired clearly on the way here; the Six Harmony Association is more complicated than I imagined," Lin Yang said somewhat solemnly.

"Tell me about it."

"First of all, there are dozens of gangs in Jinshan City, among which the Qinglong Association and the Zhulin Gang have the strongest forces, occupying the east and west cities, and the north and south are divided by other gang forces."

"The Six Harmony Association is located in the South City District; its power belongs to the middle level, and it has impressive potential on the surface, but due to the death of the gang leader, the hearts of the people are scattered, and many brothers are dissatisfied that the future successor is the son of the gang leader they have never met."

"Then there is the financial aspect; the Six Harmony Association's means of accumulating wealth are too single, mostly relying on collecting protection fees, with very few industries."

"There is only one bar under its command, which was created by the Hall Master of the Golden Hall; most of the money earned is used to comfort subordinates."

"Finally, the enemies—"

"The Six Harmony Association has only been founded for twenty years, but it has made countless enemies over the years due to fighting for territory, among which it has the deepest grievances with Mingguang Building and Donghai Hall."

"Listening to my old man, these two gangs have the greatest suspicion of killing the gang leader," Lin Yang explained the information he obtained one by one.

Su Yang tapped the table with his fingers, gradually digesting this information.

The situation is even more complicated than he imagined; all kinds of forces are fighting for power and profit, wishing to dig out the bottom of Jinshan City and attach themselves to every citizen like ticks to suck them dry.

"What is the basic situation of Jinshan City?" Su Yang asked.

"The population of Jinshan City is 300,000; the bottom-level people make a living by fishing, and the rest either work or do some small business," Lin Yang said.

"Who is in charge of control here?"

"Warlords!"

Hmm?

Su Yang raised his head, a look of doubt in his eyes, "Is it the kind of warlord in my cognition?"

"Not much difference, but the situation in Jinshan City is somewhat special; all gangs have to offer tribute to the warlords at the end of every quarter, which is called paying taxes, but in reality, it is swallowing wealth," Lin Yang nodded slightly.

"In other words, the promulgation and execution of the laws of this city are also managed by them?" Su Yang asked again.

"That's right; the warlords have 10,000 soldiers under their command, among which 1,000 supervisory troops are specifically responsible for punishing those who commit crimes, equivalent to the police," Lin Yang said.

Su Yang looked at the pistol on the table, lost in thought.

Since it is warlord control, yet there are firearms flowing into the market.

A small thug of the Six Harmony Association can hold a gun; it seems that this era of warlordism is not peaceful.

"Have you heard any clues about other players?" Su Yang asked.

"No news for now," Lin Yang said unhappily: "Brother, I've only been here for an hour; do you think I'm Wan Shi Tong?"

Hearts are scattered, fighting for power and profit.

This gang leader position, it seems, is not so easy to sit on.

"Do you understand the situation of the Six Harmony Association?"

"The Six Harmony Association has five halls—the Weiwu Hall, the Hall Master is Zhao Xian, who is the big man who wanted to slash you not long ago; he is brave and good at fighting, and has many loyal brothers following him, and has great influence in the gang."

"Many people in the gang think he is the successor to the next gang leader, but didn't expect a 'Cheng Yaojin' to kill halfway; the brothers of the Weiwu Hall are very dissatisfied with this."

"Golden Hall, Hall Master Zeng Yunzhong, cunning and calculating, an iron rooster; he can be considered the accountant in the gang."

"Fengyun Hall, Hall Master Feng Jingchu, known in the rivers and lakes as Lady Feng; she is ruthless, and the most terrifying thing is a battle for territory a few years ago; after winning, she turned the captives into human pigs and exposed them to the sun for three days and three nights, actually drying them into human jerky."

"Zhongyi Hall, Hall Master Lei Cheng, specifically responsible for docking with warlords; doing favors and such are all handled by him; he is an old slicker."

"Qianshou Hall, Hall Master Zi Huai, responsible for intelligence work, also known as the black-clothed one under the night."

Lin Yang's mouth was a bit dry, and he looked around for water to drink.

But after looking around, he didn't see any, and said with dissatisfaction: "No way, brother, I'm at least half a guest, and you don't even give me a mouthful of water?"

Su Yang came back to his senses, shook the water pot on the table, and shook his head: "It seems this young master of mine is not very popular."

"The attitudes of the Hall Masters of the Six Harmony Association are indeed somewhat ambiguous; many people are eyeing the gang leader position, and they don't want to hand it over to a stranger," Lin Yang said.

Succession to the gang leader is different from the imperial throne; it is not inherited by the direct line.

In this city, it's about who has the higher means and whose fist is harder.

Only ruthless people are qualified to survive here.

"Giving me a slap in the face as soon as we meet, interesting..." Su Yang laughed lightly.

This is the first time he has played this kind of role-playing death game, and he is full of freshness.

"Knock knock!"

Just at this moment, the door was knocked.

"Hmm?" Lin Yang looked back suddenly, a flash of strange color in his eyes.

"Come in." Su Yang said loudly.

The door was pushed open, and a woman with a graceful figure entered carrying a tray.

This person had a good appearance, and her brows and eyes were filled with softness, giving people a feeling of being weak and unable to withstand a gust of wind.

"Young Master, please have tea."

Saying this, she put two teacups in front of the two, then bowed slightly and retreated.

"Wait." Su Yang said immediately.

The woman turned around and lowered her head slightly, "Does the Young Master have any other instructions?"

"What is your name?"

The woman was silent for a long time, then said: "Subordinate Feng Yan."

Surname Feng?

Su Yang said with interest: "What is your relationship with the Hall Master of the Fengyun Hall?"

"She is my cousin," Feng Yan said truthfully.

"Oh?" Su Yang raised his brows and said with a smile: "So these two cups of tea, are they Liang Shu's meaning, or..."

"Her meaning?"

"They are all Liang Shu's instructions," Feng Yan said hurriedly, a flash of panic in the bottom of her eyes.

Su Yang saw her reaction in his eyes and waved his hand: "I know, go down."

Feng Yan looked up at Su Yang quietly, then hurried to open the door and leave.
