Chapter 20 [Bargging]
Return?
Return!!
When these two words came out of Wu Gang's mouth, how much temptation they had in my heart, only I knew!
It can be said that as I slowly gained a firm foothold in Vancouver, I was able to get some benefits everywhere with a little cleverness and a little luck, and I was able to develop and grow step by step with this little power in my hands. And in my heart, there is not a day when I don't think that one day I will be able to return to China!
Vancouver's climate is humid and cold, not as sunny as in Nanjing. The sea breeze here is too strong, far less gentle than the evening breeze along the Yangtze River. I am constantly desperate and non-stop adventures here, far from being as happy as when I was in Nanjing, and I was in a comy and happy situation with my fox friends and dogs......
There is not a single dream that does not appear in my mind with such a strong thought! It can be said that the happiest years of my life are not the five masters who have become beautiful in Vancouver now...... It was the time when I was in Nanjing, a carefree little gangster, and my three sworn friends, our four jackals, when they were in Nanjing...... It was the best life I can remember!
Of course, I have told myself more than once: it's not time yet!
Although I now have a lot of strength, my status and my wealth, and the power in my hands, I am not afraid of Qinghong's revenge - but this is only limited to Vancouver! If it is in my territory, I am the head snake of the land, and Qinghong's power is far from reaching here, so I am naturally not afraid of them. Even if they come to trouble me, I'm not afraid! Because this is my world!
But when you return home, that's a different reality...... Again, I'm ingrained here. Don't be afraid of people coming to seek revenge. But in China, Qinghong is deeply rooted, how can I shake it? I have no roots in the country, and even if I am very beautiful in Vancouver, if I rush back with my current strength, it will definitely be a dead endβif not necessarily fatal, I will definitely run into disgrace.
Based on this situation, Wu Gang's words are particularly tempting......
"Returning home? Are you serious? I tried my best to calm my tone, and asked him very seriously, "You should know who I am messing with in China, right?" And this is not ordinary hatred, it is a very deep hatred. It is hatred that must be erased with blood and life! β
"I know." Wu Gang narrowed his eyes.
"Then, you should also know that it is Qinghong that I have offended. It is the oldest and largest underground force in China, and they will not act in accordance with any law or justice when dealing with me, and they can do anything bloody, violent, and illegal and criminal...... In such a situation, you would not expect an underworld force to follow the law...... I admit that you should be born into a family with a very good background. But just by relying on the words of that old man in your family, I don't think I can let Qinghong let me go. β
Wu Gang was a little impatient: "Anyway, if I say so, I will naturally be sure." Now it's not for me to ask you for help. It was Fang Nan who gave you the opportunity to ask for land. Chen Yang, do you still want to put up a shelf? β
I smiled, looked at Wu Gang, and said slowly: "Wu Gang, things are not as simple as you think. β
Seeing that he was about to stare again, I sighed: "You said to go back...... Okay, it's very simple, but it's not just a matter of buying a plane ticket and going back right away...... After I went back. What about the business here? Now in Vancouver alone, there are at least a thousand people on the periphery, including the brothers who eat under me! The other smuggling business was even more difficult for me to come up with after spending a lot of effort and playing with the major forces. I went back...... Do you want me to give up my career here? I left behind the thousands of brothers in the big circle, the hundreds of millions of dollars in business in my hands every year, everything here, and then went back to China? β
Wu Gang didn't speak, and I continued to ask, "Okay...... As long as you are human, you will not do such a stupid thing. Throw away the good country here, and then run back to China to start from scratch. But the question is, if I don't lose it, so what? β
I stared into Wu Gang's eyes: "Am I going back to China with a large number of brothers?" Go back to China together to continue your business? You have to figure it out, I'm a gangster! All of my brothers are gangsters. They won't do anything right. The only thing they know is to fight, kill, smuggle, occupy territory, and do shady business! You want me to go back, of course I'm excited. But what I'm skeptical is...... Now you want me to work with the military, and you want me to do things for you. I have no objection. In exchange, when I return home, you can provide me with some asylum, and I have no doubt about your ability...... But......" I took a deep breath: "What is your bottom line for the so-called 'return home'?" I'm going back home alone? Still is...... Are you willing to allow me to take a big gang of hundreds of people and hundreds of the most powerful underworld soldiers to return to China to continue to fight the underworld? Can you allow a well-known Canadian mafia gang to move back in its entirety? I don't want to go back and be approached by the jΗng party the next day and raid my home! β
Wu Gang was speechless.
Although he was impulsive, he said yes, and dared to pat his chest in front of me to ensure that the official would allow a famous North American gangster to be transplanted into China...... How can he be in charge of this kind of thing?
I mean it obviously...... If I go back, it will definitely represent the North American circle officially set foot in the domestic business! Of course, I have to ask Wu Gang what they mean behind them!
"You...... You can't keep to yourself when you return home? You should already be rich by now, a fortune that you can't eat for a lifetime. After I go back, wouldn't it be ...... to be a rich man, open a legal company, and make money legally" Speaking of this, Wu Gang himself felt that he couldn't go on, his face was helpless, and he shut up and looked at me. Indeed, if you change someone casually, you will be majestic in Vancouver and say the same, but suddenly ask him to give up the entire country that he has beaten down here and go back to be an ordinary rich man, I am afraid that no man will be willing.
Wu Gang thought carefully for a while and sighed: "I can't answer you what you said. It's not something I can decide. After all, you are a gangster, and even if you are willing to serve the country here, I can't guarantee that you will be allowed to go back to the underworld with a bunch of people. β
This is ridiculous.
I have only heard that businessmen are welcome or invited to go back to invest, but I have not heard that gangsters are welcome to engage in the underworld.
I laughed, "I know, so we might as well talk about it later...... You can go back and ask for instructions. I can promise you three things first: First, I don't touch drugs. Second, I will not endanger social stability or sabotage. Thirdly, what you said that you need me to help you do things, I can promise you now, no problem! Whether I can go back or not, I'm willing to do something for you. β
After a pause, I said leisurely: "Actually, what I do here is also done by people in China." For example, is there no sΓ¨ industry in China? I used to work in a nightclub! Another example is the smuggling industry, hehe...... As I know, there is a lot of smuggling in the country. Even many regular foreign trade companies will inevitably do some entrainment of goods, or evade tariffs. My business is pretty much the same. As for the gangsters taking the territory...... Could it be that the domestic gangsters don't occupy territory and don't charge protection money? But I can tell you that in Vancouver, my territory, I've started to pay no protection fees. I now have restaurants, nightclubs, bars, restaurants, and businesses that are enough to feed my brothers. At the same time, it also allows everyone to have a job. I can even tell you that even if I go back to China to do business, I will do it cleanly, even more restrained than the gangsters in China, and do it more to the satisfaction of the authorities. β
"I can only convey what you said truthfully, and I can't promise you anything now." Wu Gang was probably a little depressed, waved his hand and said, "Since this is the case, then there is no way to talk about it today." β
"No, we still have to talk about it." I laughed and said, "You can relay my words back." I can't ask too much...... Well, so be it. When I return to China, I can go back as a foreign investor in China. I will establish a company in China, and I will also make all the company's income taxable according to the law! But at the same time, I ask companies to enjoy the preferential policies of all overseas investment companies in China. β
"It's not a big problem." Wu Gang thought for a while: "If you are doing business properly, I think there is no problem. β
"Isn't it really a big problem?" I smiled: "Under the identity of this investment, there will always be a mixture of fish and dragons. Even if the underworld wants to enter the country, it does so as an investment businessman. What's so strange about that. Many associations in Hong Kong have organized financial resources to go to China to speculate on land and even invest in films, all of which are cloaked in legality. If they can, why can't I? That's not too much to ask, isn't it? β
"As long as you are honest and don't do anything evil, it's not a big problem."
"I wouldn't mess with anyone, but maybe someone would mess with me." I said lightly: "Is there no underworld in the country?" Hum...... The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. If I'm doing business properly, someone comes to my door and comes to me for trouble...... For example, if someone comes to me to collect protection money? β
"You can report jΗng, as long as you do things for us, then jΗng will register you, and these small things, jΗng will handle them."
"Hahahaha......" I laughed...... Then I spoke slowly
