Long Long was rolling on the ground, shouting continuously. The group of armed individuals were stunned, unsure whether to take action. In the midst of their hesitation, Zhang Yang darted into the crowd like a shadow, and in the blink of an eye, everyone felt a chill in their hands as all the guns ended up in Zhang Yang's possession!
Zhang Yang's hands moved swiftly, producing a series of clattering sounds as a pile of gun parts accumulated on the ground.
After dismantling the guns, Zhang Yang reached out and lightly patted Long Long a few times. Long Long felt somewhat relieved as he sat on the ground, gasping for breath.
"Speak," Zhang Yang said, looking at him.
Although Long Long had been rolling on the ground moments ago, he had witnessed Zhang Yang's actions clearly. The experience he just endured was indeed unbearable for an ordinary person.
"Alright, I admit defeat!"
"These three people are worth two million dollars each..." Long Long began to explain. Before he could finish, James shouted, "Long Long, you made a good deal! I only took one-third for doing your dirty work!"
"Don't interrupt!" Zhang Yang suddenly shouted sternly, causing James to cover his mouth involuntarily.
Zhang Yang pointed his finger and quickly tapped several times on Long Long's body. Soon after, steam began to rise from the top of Long Long's head, and before long, all discomfort vanished. "You've been staying up late for a long time; your body is filled with cold energy. I just treated you a bit; do you feel much better now?" Zhang Yang asked.
Long Long stood up and moved around a bit; he indeed felt much more comfortable. He glanced at Zhang Yang and then told his subordinates, "Everyone go outside!" Zhang Yang then released the pressure points of the fat man, who stood up in sheer terror as he looked at Zhang Yang. He walked over to the table and gulped down a large mouthful of tea. This fat man was Long Long's strategist.
The private room fell silent again.
"Nice to meet you. Today I encountered someone extraordinary," Long Long said with a slight bow before continuing, "This person came from China; I don't know exactly what he does, but he's very wealthy. He found me through Chinese people in Amsterdam, saying he got into trouble back home and fled to the Netherlands. However, his enemies are relentless and want him dead, so he's offering two hundred thousand dollars per person to eliminate a few."
"Did this person inform you about the whereabouts of those three? What is his name?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Yes, later I passed it on to James. I don't know his name; I only know his last name is Qi," Long Long replied.
"You need to send someone immediately to track down this person named Qi," Zhang Yang said as he looked at Long Long before adding, "It seems that might not align with your usual practices. But let me tell you, this person is a corrupt tycoon who has embezzled hundreds of millions from the state; he may evade capture for a time but cannot escape forever."
Long Long frowned but remained silent.
Zhang Yang sat down at the table and began eating and drinking. Finally, Long Long stood up and walked out of the private room, followed by the fat man.
"Aren't you afraid they might pull any tricks? I'm not here to be buried alongside you!" James exchanged glances with Cook before speaking up.
"No, I told him the stakes. He knows how to calculate this. Is it easier to deal with one person or to confront a whole country? Come, let's eat together," Zhang Yang said while eating.
Half an hour later, Long Long walked into the private room. "You helped me with my illness, so I'll consider this a favor returned. I've already arranged for someone to investigate." After stepping out, Long Long felt much better than before and realized that the suffering he just endured was actually part of the healing process.
As they were talking, Long Long's phone rang. "That guy Qi moved out of Chinatown the day before yesterday; I don't know where he went." After hearing this, Long Long said into the phone, "Keep investigating."
"Knowing each other is also a kind of fate; let's have a drink!" Zhang Yang picked up a beer from the table and poured himself a glass. James and Cook had completely recovered and also poured themselves drinks. Although Long Long and the fat man still felt a bit awkward, they were seasoned enough to pour themselves a glass as well.
At that moment, Zhang Yang's phone unexpectedly rang.
"Mr. Vincent!" Zhang Yang answered the call. James, Cook, and Long Long were all taken aback. The leader of the 5W Party was actually calling Zhang Yang personally!
"You want to treat me to a drink? Haha, I'm at Fortune House in Chinatown, having a drink!"
"What? You’re coming over? Okay, I'll wait for you." Zhang Yang hung up the phone and looked at them. "Vincent is coming; is that okay?"
"No problem," Long Long replied. "My father and Mr. Vincent were old friends. I was still young back then, but my father passed away a few years ago."
When Vincent entered the private room, everyone was already having a great time chatting. Zhang Yang's mysterious skills amazed them; they didn't expect him to be so talkative, especially Long Long, who kept asking Zhang Yang about many things related to China since it was his homeland and he was quite curious.
"It's quite late; my unexpected visit isn't too sudden, is it?" Vincent smiled as he walked in.
"Your unexpected visit's 'Not Entering the Tiger's Den, How Can One Catch the Tiger Cubs' is quite well done," Zhang Yang chuckled.
"I'm here to deliver money; here's a check for 50 million dollars." Vincent sat down with a smile. Except for Zhang Yang, everyone else nearly dropped their jaws in shock. Vincent was actually giving this guy from China money—50 million dollars at that!
"This is money I won at Torch Casino. Mr. Vincent is a businessman who values rules and won't default on payments," Zhang Yang explained to them. In fact, Vincent had already learned about Zhang Yang's actions and thought that this person was difficult to deal with; clearly, being tough wouldn't work, so it was better to soften him up a bit.
"That's right," Vincent added. "Mr. Zhang Yang, if you need any help in the Netherlands, feel free to ask."
"I do have something I need help with. I'm looking for someone with the surname Qi; Long Long has agreed to help me. If Mr. Vincent is also willing to lend me a hand, it would make me happier than receiving money," Zhang Yang said while looking at Vincent.
"No problem," Vincent nodded.
After finishing their meal, Vincent and James Cook left, while Long Long arranged for Zhang Yang to stay. As they reached the door of Zhang Yang's room, Long Long suddenly asked, "Have you taken care of all the attackers?"
"No. What good would that do? Can the dead come back to life? The most crucial thing now is to find this person with the surname Qi; he is the real culprit and deserves to be punished severely," Zhang Yang replied. Long Long nodded and said goodnight before leaving.
Zhang Yang slept soundly and comfortably until nearly noon when he woke up. As he stepped out of his room, he found Long Long's chubby strategist waiting outside.
"Good morning, Fat Brother," Zhang Yang greeted with a smile.
"Not too early, haha. We have news about that Qi guy," the chubby man said. "Our boss and Mr. Vincent and Mr. James are waiting for you in the private room; let's discuss it over lunch."
Zhang Yang followed the chubby man to the private room. Long Long smiled and said to Mr. Vincent, "Since you found him first, let James speak."
"This Qi guy is a high-ranking official from your Huaxia; he didn't come alone but brought his son, named Qi Tian. They are currently hiding in Lukang City, Netherlands," James explained.
"Qi Tian?" Zhang Yang exclaimed, realizing that this was the same Qi the Young Master who pursued Chu Ruoxi in Yanjing. His father was indeed a high-ranking official, and it was surprising that he had embezzled so much money from the country!
When they arrived, Shen Zhiyu had detailed the ambush but hadn't mentioned this corrupt tycoon at all. Although Zhang Yang suspected that the corrupt tycoon might have hired someone to ambush them, he couldn't be entirely sure. After all, it made sense for a corrupt tycoon to prioritize escaping when someone came to investigate; it was unexpected that this Qi guy would confront them head-on.
This kid's true colors were finally revealed, and since Qi brought his son Qi Tian along, it seemed he had no intention of returning. Taking this opportunity to deal with him would be beneficial both publicly and privately.
"Lukang City? Is it easy to control?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Hahaha," Vincent laughed. "In the Netherlands, whether it's Amsterdam or Lukang City, these are where our influence is strongest. This man and his son are already under our control; you can decide how you want to deal with them."
"Then I'll take a trip to Lukang City; I hear it's your largest city in the Netherlands," Zhang Yang said.
"Sure thing. Since you're not pursuing the matter of us ambushing your colleagues at that time, we have also prepared some compensation for you; I hope you won't refuse!" Vincent added.
"I'm not letting it go; I'm giving you a chance. Now that you've helped me find the real culprit, we're even. As for your compensation, there's no need for that; I'll use part of the 50 million dollars you sent me for them," Zhang Yang replied.
Vincent wanted to insist further, but Zhang Yang waved him off and walked out of the room. "There's no time to waste; let's get going."
"Aren't you going to eat? Alright then, James and Long Long will accompany you; I have some matters in Amsterdam to attend to, so feel free to contact me anytime," Vincent shrugged.
Zhang Yang nodded and walked out with James and Long Long. "You didn't hurt him and his son, did you?" Zhang Yang asked.
"No, we'll leave that to you!" James smiled, thinking to himself that however they dealt with him, it wouldn't be as ruthless as Zhang Yang would. That kind of feeling was truly unbearable.
A private jet roared to life and took off from the ground. The group had a simple lunch at the airport.
Upon arriving in Lukang City, the waiting vehicle quickly took Zhang Yang and the others to a villa.
Greedy Old Qi and his son Qi Tian were locked in two separate rooms.
Zhang Yang first entered the room where Greedy Old Qi was confined. Although he was tied to a chair, he still exuded an air of authority. "You know, being in power for so long really changes a person," Zhang Yang said as he approached Old Qi and patted his shoulder. "You took the country's money and hired thugs. Did you ever think it would come to this?"
"To the victor belong the spoils. Enough with the nonsense; just give me a quick end. Do you want money or blood?" Old Qi replied clearly and decisively.
Zhang Yang pulled out a card. "Transfer all your money to this card, and I can spare Qi Tian's life!"
Greedy Old Qi began to tremble, as this statement held at least two meanings.
