Chapter 364

~7 min read 1,356 words

This quantity...

Su Yang suddenly felt an invisible pressure.

If the small yellow fish are pistols, then the big yellow fish are most likely long guns.

The price of the corresponding fish roe for ten thousand yuan will definitely rise significantly.

Plus one thousand sea urchins...

The total value is estimated to be no less than seven million.

Cooperating with the Li Clan, the moment the pointer starts turning, there will be no day it stops.

Su Yang has successfully passed the first trial, and what he will face next is an endless smuggling business.

Unless he dies!

Otherwise, this cooperation will continue indefinitely.

This is why Li Yang had previously asked him why it had to be 'seafood business'.

"I will send someone to give you the price list in ten days." Li Yang took a sip of tea.

"On the investigator's side, can the time be dragged out a bit longer?" Su Yang asked.

"No, half an hour is already the limit; any longer, even for me, there will be a risk of disaster." Li Yang flatly refused.

"I understand." Su Yang nodded with a solemn expression.

"If there's nothing else, please go back; it's best we don't meet during this period." Li Yang issued an expulsion order.

Su Yang and Lin Yang bowed and saluted, then opened the door and left.

Xiao Mo had already changed into a long dress and was waiting below; seeing her full of smiles, she said: "What did you talk to my dad about?"

"Talking about the bride price; Lin Yang is preparing to marry you home," Su Yang said.

"Ah?" Xiao Mo's face instantly flushed red, and she subconsciously lowered her head.

Lin Yang tugged at his sleeve, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Su Yang patted his shoulder, "Go on, have fun, remember to be on time tonight."

Lin Yang originally wanted to say something, but seeing Xiao Mo's charming, shy, and bashful appearance, he swallowed his words.

"Where are we going shopping?" Xiao Mo asked in a low voice.

Lin Yang thought for a moment and suggested: "Nanyang Street, I heard a new dessert shop opened there, let's go try it."

"Okay." Xiao Mo happily agreed, her eyebrows curved like a crescent moon, radiant and moving.

As she spoke, she turned back and waved at the second-floor tea room, "Dad, I'm going out to play with Brother Lin Yang, I'll leave the shop for you to watch."

After speaking, she impatiently dragged Lin Yang and ran out.

Fearing she would be called back by Li Yang.

Looking at this pair of young lovebirds, the corners of Su Yang's mouth curled up slightly.

After returning to the manor, Su Yang received news from his subordinates—

Feng Jingchu had already settled the warehouse.

The area is about four hundred square meters, enough to hold the 'seafood'.

And Zhao Xian had already arranged the manpower, just waiting for his orders.

With over fifty brothers under his command, it was more than enough for moving goods.

In addition, the storefront in the black market had also been settled, with a rent as high as ten thousand per month, with a minimum lease of half a year.

At the same time, the fish tank equipment for selling seafood was also being prepared in full swing.

Regarding the goods, Lei Cheng had already made proper arrangements.

The small yellow fish and other catches could be put on the shelves at any time.

Seeing their efficiency, Su Yang couldn't help but sigh:

"Those in the gangs are truly top-tier workhorses..."

With one order, everyone worked together.

No slack, not a single complaint.

And there was no need to worry about them skimming off the top.

Such 'employees' would be hard to find even with a lantern in the 21st century.

Time reached seven o'clock in the evening.

Su Yang had dinner and met with Zi Huai and Lei Cheng.

"What is the attitude of the guard team?" Su Yang asked directly.

"They will be drinking and playing cards in the territory of Mingguang Building tonight; I've already arranged the place for them," Lei Cheng replied.

"Has the warlord made any big moves recently?" Su Yang asked.

"It seems they are preparing to expand recruitment for miners in the North District, but specific news hasn't been released yet."

Su Yang nodded and looked at Zi Huai: "Check the background and movements of Yan Dongyun."

"Lin Yang's wife?" Zi Huai's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes, it's best to check the relationships with relatives and friends clearly," Su Yang nodded.

"I'll arrange for someone to handle this immediately," Zi Huai agreed.

Then the topic changed, "The people below observed that there seems to be movement on the side of Donghai Hall."

"Continue."

"Their Third Hall Master is not very peaceful; he gathered manpower this morning, seemingly intending to show his blade," Zi Huai explained.

"Such a coincidence?" Su Yang frowned.

Not showing it early or late, but choosing this specific time?

At night, their manpower would be concentrated on moving goods; where would they have the leisure to fight them?

People from other halls also had their own tasks and couldn't spare any manpower.

"According to intelligence, the Third Hall Master has already arrived on our turf," Zi Huai said solemnly.

"Keep watching."

"Yes!"

After reporting, Zi Huai and Lei Cheng left one after another.

Su Yang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the buildings with dim lights under the night, a strange look appearing in his eyes.

Not long after, Lin Yang pushed the door and entered.

"How did the inquiry go?" Su Yang asked.

"I went to look at No. 26 Nanyang Street; it's a warehouse."

"I also asked the residents there, and they said No. 26 has been idle for over a year, and they have never seen anyone go in," Lin Yang said.

"Nine o'clock is the peak of the night market, and also when there are the most people..." Su Yang frowned.

If the time were set at midnight, it might be safer, but nine o'clock is truly too easy to attract attention.

"Do you think Uncle Li set us up?" The more Lin Yang thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

That abandoned warehouse had been ignored for a long time; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a place to store goods.

"The Li Clan wouldn't smash their own signboard for this little money," Su Yang shook his head.

"Do you already have a plan in mind?" Lin Yang asked curiously.

Su Yang pondered for a moment and said: "Go find Zeng Yunzhong and get some cargo boxes, line them with some hay, put whatever on top, and support the weight."

"Okay."

"Get a few more ox carts and wait at Nanyang Street."

"I'll go right now!" Lin Yang nodded heavily.

Su Yang pulled open the drawer, looked at the Glock pistol lying inside, and pulled out the magazine to check the ammunition count.

After confirming it was correct, he stuffed it into his pocket.

Tonight's operation is grand but not flashy, with the purpose of covering people's eyes.

Donghai Hall's temporary trouble-making made Su Yang feel quite tricky.

"Maggot-like things..."

Su Yang took a deep breath, left the study, and headed straight for Nanyang Street.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived at his destination, only to see the night market here crowded with people, and the shouting was endless.

Zhao Xian was standing in front of a bar, holding a bottle of beer, chatting with a beauty in front of him.

Seeing Su Yang arrive, he immediately put the bottle on the ground and said: "Boss."

"Where are the brothers from Weiwu Hall?" Su Yang asked.

"Everything is arranged, just waiting for orders."

"The rats have already sneaked in, tell the people below to be vigilant," Su Yang said.

Zhao Xian's face sank, "Which rats?"

"East side."

"If he dares to show his head, I'll be the first to deal with him!" Zhao Xian snorted coldly.

Su Yang pressed his hand down, "The goods are important; I'll deal with those clowns."
