Chapter 727
Qiao Jing Tian's impression had always been that of a loner. Xu Tian was a bit curious: did the other party really not create his own gang, or were the gangs he established all hidden in the dark?
Hearing this, Qiao Jing Tian was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Xu Tian to ask this question.
"It is indeed not difficult." He paused slightly and continued, "But what's the use?"
Xu Tian:?
This was the first time someone had asked what the use of establishing a gang was.
Before he could speak, Qiao Jing Tian said again.
"I don't have the habit of recycling waste."
Xu Tian:...
That you can speak like this and still not be beaten to death really relies entirely on your strong hard power; no one dares to provoke you.
Perhaps in his eyes, there were really no masters on Wuji Island who could catch his eye. Except for himself, everyone else was trash, a burden, and naturally, he couldn't be bothered to recruit people he didn't look up to.
However, this was also very consistent with Qiao Jing Tian's character design.
"By the way, do you want to have a drink?" Qiao Jing Tian finished the last mouthful of instant noodles and looked up at Xu Tian.
"Sure." Xu Tian was a bit confused.
This guy had finished his noodles, and only then remembered he had wine?
"This is wine I brewed myself; you won't find it anywhere else."
Xu Tian actually heard a hint of pride in Qiao Jing Tian's tone.
He took the cup, looked at the pink liquid inside, and felt a bit speechless.
This is... wine?
But what if it tastes good?
Xu Tian still tilted his head and drank the cup of wine.
"Tastes good, right?" Qiao Jing Tian asked quite confidently.
"Hmm..." Xu Tian didn't know how to describe it.
It didn't taste bad, but it could be said that it had nothing to do with the taste of wine.
"Is this really wine?" Xu Tian didn't want to dampen the other party's enthusiasm and asked hesitantly.
"Yes, it's just that I didn't add distiller's grains." Qiao Jing Tian replied blandly.
"Didn't add distiller's grains..." Xu Tian didn't know how to complain.
Then isn't this just a cup of fruit juice.
No wonder when Qiao Jing Tian said "brewed" just now, he felt it was a bit strange.
Originally, he thought it was a cocktail, but he didn't expect this thing to have nothing to do with wine.
"Mr. Qiao, then the... fruit juice you brewed tastes quite good."
"I also think it tastes very good."
"As long as you're happy..." Xu Tian got up and said, "It's getting late, I should go."
"By the way, Mr. Qiao, if you have time, you can also come to my place for a cup of tea. My home
is nearby."
"Nearby?" Qiao Jing Tian raised an eyebrow slightly. "The villas around here are all empty, only that haunted house has people living in it."
Xu Tian: "... That is the haunted house you mentioned."
He felt that since Qiao Jing Tian didn't even know Ding Yi, he certainly wouldn't know Ding Yi's residence. Telling the other party his residence shouldn't matter.
"Mr. Xu is truly courageous." Qiao Jing Tian gave Xu Tian a thumbs up.
Xu Tian:...
A top-level master looking across the entire Wuji Island, actually believing that there are ghosts in this world.
Sure enough, masters are not normal people, right?
Xu Tian was about to walk to the door, and he didn't know if his brain suddenly twitched, but he spoke to Qiao Jing Tian.
"Mr. Qiao, I received news that an organization wants to offer a reward for attacking Thorn, and the bounty is very high. I don't know if you are willing to go..."
If Qiao Jing Tian was willing to take action, wouldn't dealing with Thorn be easy?
By then, he would split the two hundred million given by the Wuji Martial Arts Association in half with him, and he himself would net a clean one hundred million.
"Not willing." Qiao Jing Tian didn't have the slightest hesitation.
"The bounty is a lot." Xu Tian continued.
"How much?" Qiao Jing Tian's eyes were still without waves.
Xu Tian extended a finger.
"I won't interfere in the grievances between other gangs." Qiao Jing Tian said blandly. "Otherwise, the Azure Wolf Hall would have been destroyed long ago."
Xu Tian:...
No wonder the Wolf King was so suicidal, and Qiao Jing Tian didn't take action.
"Mr. Xu, you aren't actually doing small business, are you?" Qiao Jing Tian asked suddenly.
Xu Tian's body stiffened.
He was a bit anxious; Qiao Jing Tian must have seen through the flaws.
"You should be an intelligence peddler, specializing in building bridges and connecting lines for others." Qiao Jing Tian analyzed.
"Intelligence... peddler?" Xu Tian reacted after two seconds and nodded repeatedly. "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Mr. Qiao. I do small business, but occasionally I also resell some intelligence to support my family..."
"Then you find someone to paint my walls and replace the glass. I'm not interested in the bounty you mentioned." Qiao Jing Tian said.
"No problem." Xu Tian was worried about being exposed, so he stopped mentioning the topic of Thorn.
Coming out of Qiao Jing Tian's villa, the sky had already darkened.
He drove back to the company to feed the wolves and found that the little girl Zhong Yu had strong executive power and had already started setting up the pet paradise.
And what made Xu Tian
surprised was that those old things didn't have any objections either and gave up the space quite readily.
He walked into the office with a bucket of pork ribs and found Qingxue and Shenlong napping on the carpet.
After hearing footsteps, they pricked up their ears very vigilantly.
"Time to eat." Xu Tian placed the pork ribs in front of them. "Eat slowly, no fighting allowed."
"Awoo..." He didn't know if Xu Tian's previous warning had worked, but these two behemoths didn't fight for the first time in history.
Although they still looked like neither was convinced by the other, they didn't swing their claws after all.
"Brother Yi, I've booked the place, let's go!"
Zhong Yu ran in from outside, jumping and hopping.
Seeing Zhong Yu, Xu Tian suddenly remembered what he had promised Qiao Jing Tian, so he asked.
"Zhong Yu, do you know anyone who can paint walls and replace glass windows?"
"Paint walls?" Zhong Yu looked at Xu Tian in confusion. "Brother Yi, you want to paint walls? I do have a friend who does renovation, let me ask for you."
"It's not me, then leave this matter to you." Xu Tian tore off a sticky note, wrote down Qiao Jing Tian's address, and handed it to Zhong Yu. "You have your friend go to this place, paint the walls, replace the floor-to-ceiling windows, one-stop service."
"Uh... okay." Zhong Yu didn't expect Xu Tian to actually hand this task to her. "I'll call my friend first thing tomorrow morning."
"Don't wait until tomorrow morning, call now." Xu Tian felt that if he were one day late in painting the walls for Qiao Jing Tian, he would be able to run to his villa to hold him accountable.
"Then fine, I'll call now." Zhong Yu took out her phone and walked outside, soon poking her head back in. "Done, they'll go over first thing tomorrow morning. Is there someone at the address you gave me?"
"There should be." Xu Tian didn't know if Qiao Jing Tian would go out, but a villa without floor-to-ceiling windows had security that was as good as non-existent. Even if he wasn't at home, it wouldn't delay the workers from doing their work.
"Then let's go, Zhong Ling and the others are already at the parking lot." Zhong Yu pulled Xu Tian's arm without saying a word and walked out of the office.
Xu Tian had no interest in the nightlife of Kun City; anyway, it was either stone gambling or sashimi octopus.
But since these were all entertainment activities the Wolf King liked, it would be easy for Zhong Ling to see through him if he kept refusing.
Because the Azure Wolf Hall's headquarters was in the city center, it was relatively convenient to travel, so not long after, the cars of several people stopped at the entrance of a newly opened bar.
