Chapter 90: A gangster doesn't eat brains; he'll be a gangster for life.
night.
A private room in a bar.
"Who?"
The crow was drinking when it heard its subordinate's report and looked surprised.
"The owner of Jinhui Auto Dealership?"
"Why did he come looking for me?"
My younger brother, A-Yang, was equally puzzled.
"I don't know, Brother Crow."
"Could it be that I hailed too many drivers today, and they're causing trouble for me?"
"Oh, really?"
The crow's face lit up with interest.
How many men did he bring?
"I...I came alone."
"I'll fuck you to the core."
The crow glared at Ah Yang.
"You're just looking for trouble all by yourself?"
"You think he is...?"
The words "Chen Yuan" were on the tip of his tongue, but the crow swallowed them back.
He glared at A-Yang again.
"Bring the person in."
"OK."
Shortly after, a man was led into the private room.
The crow sized the man up and down, gestured with its chin toward the sofa opposite, and waved for Ah Yang to leave.
Then he spoke.
"I heard you're here to cause me trouble?"
Zhang Jinhui waved his hands repeatedly, a fawning smile on his face.
"No, no, Brother Crow, I'm Zhang Jinhui, the owner of Jinhui Auto Dealership."
"I asked someone to find your address so I could come here specifically to thank you."
"?"
"Without Brother Crow, I wouldn't have known that the car dealership had so many bad practices for so long."
He rubbed his hands together and continued to laugh.
"Thank you, Brother Crow, for your valuable feedback on our car dealership."
"Thanks to Brother Crow for making Wan Chai's cityscape better."
"In the future, I will strictly discipline my drivers to ensure that there will be no more cases of overcharging, picking and choosing passengers, or refusing to pick up passengers."
crow:"......"
The muscles in his face twitched almost imperceptibly.
Having lived for so many years, I've both killed and been killed, heard pleas for mercy and curses, but I've never been thanked with such "righteous indignation."
This feeling... it's like ants are crawling all over my body, an indescribable awkwardness and discomfort.
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
Zhang Jinhui chuckled twice.
"I'm having a problem right now, could you please help me, Brother Crow?"
"interesting."
The crow once again looked Zhang Jinhui up and down.
Tell me about it.
He drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"Let's see what reason you have not to beat you up!"
"Bang!"
Crow slammed the cup down on the table and stared coldly at Zhang Jinhui.
If he were forced by Chen Yuan to act as a chivalrous hero, he wouldn't be a gangster anymore, right?
So you think anyone can bully you?
I'll smash your street!
This is the East Star base!
This isn't your mother's charity!
Zhang Jinhui: "..."
A bead of cold sweat slowly trickled down his forehead. He swallowed hard, and the smile on his face looked more like a grimace.
"Here's the thing, I'd like to invite Dongxing to invest in our car dealership."
"Whoa!"
The crow cried out in alarm and spread its large hand on the back of the sofa.
"You actually dared to set your sights on me."
"Hehe~"
Zhang Jinhui could only continue to force a dry laugh.
"Brother Crow, I'll give you half the shares for free, what do you think?"
"Not very good."
The crow sat up straight and stared at Zhang Jinhui.
"What do you take me for? A taxi driver?!"
He'd love to take it! Who wouldn't want to bite into such a tempting offer?
The problem is that Chen Yuan disagrees!
"Gurgle~"
Zhang Jinhui swallowed hard once again.
What should I do?
I never expected crows to be so difficult to deal with.
The problem is, sending money doesn't work, and neither does giving passengers. What should we do?!
Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Fei Xiang walked in holding a telephone.
When he saw Zhang Jinhui, his round face showed no sign of surprise, and he blinked his small eyes.
"What are you doing here...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he turned to the crow and handed it to him.
"Brother Crow, someone's looking for you."
Who is it?
He said he was A Yuan.
crow:"......"
He took a deep breath, stretched out his hand, and his voice was a little deep.
He pointed at Zhang Jinhui and said to Fei Xiang.
"Take him outside and wait there."
"Okay, Brother Crow."
Fei Xiang handed the phone to Crow, then looked at Zhang Jinhui and smiled amicably.
"Boss Zhang, shall we go outside and wait for a moment?"
Zhang Jinhui felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and quickly got up and followed Fei Xiang out of the private room.
The door closed.
The crow brought the phone to its ear, its tone harsh and clearly showing its displeasure.
"Hey, Yuan-ge, what's up now?!"
Faced with Chen Yuan, who had him completely under his control, Crow couldn't suppress his frustration and anger.
On the other end of the phone, Chen Yuan's voice was very calm, even carrying a hint of relaxed teasing.
"Hey, Crow Bro, what's all this fire about? Who upset you?"
Crow: (╯°□°)╯︵┻━┻
Of course it's you, you good-for-nothing!
But he didn't have the guts to say it out loud.
"I'm afraid you'll ask me to go and do some chivalrous deeds again!"
"Boss! I'm a gangster, murder and arson are my main jobs!"
Even if we don't allow murder and arson, we can't let him do good deeds every day, can we?
Now even the smiling tiger's expression looks strange to him.
"yes."
Chen Yuan spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"A gangster can do whatever he wants. So what if he wants to do good deeds? Who can stop him?"
"Take on anyone who has a problem with you!"
The crow paused for a moment, opened its beak, but couldn't find the words to refute it.
It seems... to make sense?
wrong!
He shook his head violently, almost being led astray by this fallacy!
What gangster would do good deeds?
If word gets out, will I even be able to stay in the underworld?!
"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."
Chen Yuan got down to business.
"The owner of Zhida Auto Shop came to call the police, saying that his people had been kidnapped and that his business had been disrupted."
"Hello!"
The crow was displeased and raised its voice even higher.
"Boss, you told me to do this, now you're not telling me to hand over the person, are you?"
"yes."
Chen Yuan spoke with righteous indignation.
"What's wrong with handing over some people? Isn't it normal for gangsters to spend a few days in jail?"
"Besides, you're doing a good deed; you'll accumulate a lot of good karma."
crow:"......"
He held the phone, speechless and choked with emotion.
"By the way, didn't you say you didn't have much income?"
Chen Yuan suddenly changed the subject.
"right."
The crow gave a muffled reply, its anger still simmering.
He's not touching the most profitable businesses, and he has so many mouths to feed. Plus, the school business is losing money, so he's really short on cash lately.
"Perfect timing. I see you've built up a good reputation and gained recognition in Wan Chai recently."
"The public opinion... well, it's rather unique, but we could consider setting up a taxi company."
"As for the formalities, I'll help you figure out a way."
The crow paused for a moment, then felt a touch of emotion.
After all this time, they've finally decided to give us a treat.
"The owner of Jinhui Auto Dealership just came to me and said he wanted to give me shares for free."
Chen Yuan: "..."
His voice carried a clear hint of doubt.
Are you sure you didn't threaten them?
crow:"......"
He was immediately enraged and embarrassed.
"nonsense!"
"Alright, alright, you can take the shares, but not for free."
Chen Yuan made the final decision.
"Then let's do this. Find a reliable lawyer to finalize the details with them and see if we should pay for it or what."
"However, it's normal for him to give away shares voluntarily."
"If you keep 'rectifying' things like this, his car dealership will only have two paths left."
"Either all the drivers run away, or we just close down and go out of business."
"Finding a powerful backer, sharing half of the profits, and keeping the rest is the smart thing to do."
"Use your brain more, crow."
He spoke earnestly.
"A gangster who doesn't use his brain will always be a gangster."
"Oh, and remember to hand him over to me."
"Beep beep beep~"
The call was disconnected, and the crow remained silent for a moment.
This guy is actually a pretty nice person.
He paused for a moment, then opened the door to the private room.
Outside the door, Fei Xiang stood like a door god.
The small eyes stared unblinkingly at Zhang Jinhui, who was constantly wiping away sweat beside him, making Zhang Jinhui's face turn pale and cold sweat never stop.
"Fei Xiang".
The crow opened its mouth.
"Brother Crow!"
Fei Xiang immediately turned his head, his face regaining its respectful expression.
"The owner of Zhida Auto Shop called the police, sent someone to the police station, and then remembered to block the auto shop."
"Okay, Brother Crow."
Fei Xiang replied, then asked another question.
"Do you still want it...?"
"Of course."
The crow cursed.
"I can't stand those taxi drivers, they rip off passengers every day!"
"Okay, Brother Crow."
Fei Xiang nodded knowingly, then turned and quickly left to make the arrangements.
The crow turned its head to look at Zhang Jinhui, whose face was pale.
"Are you still going to give away those shares?"
"what?"
Zhang Jinhui was stunned for a moment, then nodded hastily.
"Send them away, send them away."
