Chapter 112: Tonight belongs to me alone
Arrived upstairs, the 4th floor was almost empty now. A few waiters were sweeping the floor. Zhang Wing and Chen Weiguo had already left long ago. Being able to come here was already a great honor for Xiao Lao, but it was impossible for them to stay from start to finish. The head of Jun Zheng No. 1 was very busy after all.
A waiter came forward and said to the three of them, "Old Xiao is waiting for you, follow me." After that, he directly led the three people through the hall and arrived in front of an ancient wooden door.
"Please come in." The waiter opened the door but remained standing outside.
Zhao Tiezhu pushed the door open and went in, there were only a few people inside. Xiao Lao Yezi was sitting at his desk with a clear expression, while Xiao Tianhu stood beside him with a respectful face. Apart from them, there was also a woman holding a teapot, looking quite pretty, seemingly serving tea to the old man.
Xiao Lao Ye Zi smiled and said to Zhao Tiezhu, "Zhao Xiao You, I didn't expect you to know Old Chen."
It's not surprising that Old Xiao knew about his relationship with Chen Weiguo. Earlier, the old man had invited him to this single room, and Chen Weiguo would probably have mentioned it to the old man, but he didn't know to what extent.
"I'm just friends with Commander Chen's grandson." Zhao Tiejun replied cautiously, the man in front of him was a notorious underworld figure who had dominated FJ city for decades and was also someone that the first major gang, Zongheng Gang, couldn't do anything about.
"Haha, it's Lei Zi, right?" Xiao Lao laughed and said, "I heard that kid went abroad, didn't expect him to come back. It seems Zhao Xiaoyou is also a remarkable person."
"Old man's wrong praise."
"By the way, where did you get this ring from? I'm very curious." After exchanging greetings with Old Man Xiao and Zhao Tiezhu, he took out the white paper, inside which was wrapped the ring that Zhao Tiezhu had taken from the fat man's body on the night of the murder.
"What does Lao Yezi think?" Zhao Tiezhu retorted.
Xiao Lao Yezi suddenly burst out laughing, "No matter what, I, Xiao Meng, have acknowledged this emotion. That little kid over there is Tie Shou, right? If the Iron Fist Gang expands into FJ City in the future, I'll make some calls."
Iron hand nodded, and didn't say much either.
"Thank you, old master, but is this little benefit enough to exchange for that fatty's life?" Zhao Tiezhu looked at Xiao Lao with a playful expression.
"Oh? Does Zhao Xiaoyou have any other requests, just say it." Old Man Xiao was a bit curious about Zhao Tiezhu's identity. Chen Weiguo only told him that he was Leizi's good brother, and nothing else. Now, they valued Zhao Tiezhu so much, mainly because of the ring on his hand, which belonged to the traitorous Pangzi under him. Pangzi was a high-ranking member of the Panlong Gang and knew many secrets about the gang. After he betrayed them, the Panlong Gang had made great efforts to find him but failed. Now, hearing this young man say that Pangzi seemed to have been killed!
"A junior has a question, why did the Panlong Gang allow the Zhongheng Gang to run amok in FJ City for several years? As far as I know, FJ City used to be the territory of the Panlong Gang. Zhao Tiezhu asked out his doubts that had been lingering in his mind, the Zhongheng Gang is formidable, but the Panlong Gang is not weak either. It's strange that the Panlong Gang gave up its position as the largest gang in FJ without a large-scale conflict."
"This reason, I'd rather not say too clearly." Old Xiao hesitated for a moment, "When you have the chance, ask Commander Chen about the turmoil 15 years ago." Zhao Tiezhu's eyes changed, 15 years ago's turmoil? He had never heard of it! That year was probably when his parents left him!
"Could that old man have ever thought that one day he would return to the first place?" Zhao Tiezhu asked, suppressing his doubts.
"Oh?" Old Xiao looked at Zhao Tiezhu with some curiosity, wondering what he was getting at.
"Is the old master worried about that White Tiger? That's why he didn't dare to fully engage in battle with the Zongheng Gang?" Zhao Tiezhu's face showed a hint of confidence.
"Do you know White Tiger? It seems that this ring wasn't given to you by someone else." Old Master Xiao nodded, and his eyes gazed at Zhao Tiezhu with more seriousness.
"The name of White Tiger, who doesn't know?" Zhao Tiezhu smiled. "I have a way to make Panlong Gang the first in Fujian and eradicate Zongheng Gang."
"Kid, confidence is a good thing, but being too confident is just arrogance." Xiao Tianhu smiled disdainfully at the side.
Zhao Tiezhu didn't say a word and directly threw his ID onto the office desk.
Xiao Lao Ye Zi picked it up and took a look, his face suddenly changed drastically!!
"You!!!! You're from the National Security Agency's Special Operations Division!"
"Is that right? Now the old master has confidence in his junior?" Zhao Tiezhu asked with a smile.
"Alas." Old Master Xiao suddenly sighed again, "Even if you're from the National Security Bureau's Special Operations Division, as long as you're not one of those old demons, you can't defeat White Tiger."
"Really? I always thought Panlong was just a dormant giant dragon, but it turned out to be just a mud eel with its claws pulled off. Forget it, let's pretend I never came." Zhao Tiezhu shook his head in disappointment.
"Hey kid, what did you just say?!" Xiao Tianhu let out a loud roar, his aura suddenly surging upwards, revealing that he was actually a top-notch expert who had once been ranked at the bottom of the Dragon Rankings.
"Tianhu!" Old Master Xiao shouted in a low voice, and Xiao Tianhu's momentum dissipated instantly.
"You're still young, you don't know the ferocity of the White Tiger. If, I'm saying if you have a way to deal with the White Tiger, our Panlong Gang will provide all the help we can, it's just, what do you want?" Old Master Xiao's eyes sparkled brightly.
"I want Iron Fist Gang to become the second Panlong Gang." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
"Good!" Old Master Xiao nodded directly, "As long as you can get rid of the White Tiger, I'll give you the Iron Fist Gang, 5 districts in the west and north of FJ City."
"Dad!" Xiao Tiantu was about to interrupt, but Old Man Xiao waved his hand, signaling him to shut up.
"Alright, it's settled then." Zhao Tiezhu smiled and took the documents handed over by the woman holding the teapot, putting them in his pocket. He made a fist at Old Man Xiao, "I'll take my leave to make some preparations now."
"Good!"
After Zhao Tiezhu left the office, Xiao Tiantiger looked at his father with some confusion and asked, "Dad, both Chengxi and Chengbei are the most profitable areas, why did you give them away so easily?"
"Hmph, this little kid can kill that traitor, he must have some skills. Plus, he's from the National Security Bureau's Special Operations Division, so he'll definitely cause White Tiger some trouble. When the time comes, it will be the rise of our Panlong Gang! Give it to him? When did I say give it to him? Hahaha." Old Master Xiao laughed with satisfaction, while Xiao Tianhu looked confused.
"Brother Tiezhu, this old man is trying to swindle us!" said Tiezhu on the way back in the car.
"Hmph, this old man is indeed cunning, but what's the use? Zhao Tiezhu lit a cigarette. "This underground world of FJ isn't dominated by either the Zongheng Gang or the Panlong Gang, it belongs to my Tieshou Gang. Now, I've given Old Man Xiao a glimmer of hope. Later on, as long as he makes good use of it, he'll definitely be able to get the two gangs to engage in large-scale warfare. This is our chance for expansion!" Zhao Tiezhu gazed out the window, where despite the late hour, the lights were still shining brightly. From now on, FJ's nights would belong only to me.
