Chapter 438 Do Me a Favor, Give Me a Discount!
Under Ye Bancheng’s management, the Ye Family had changed from a new company to a super financial group, ranking in the top 30 in its country, and the second in Hei Province, and even won over half of the city. It was said that half of the wealth of Jiang City belonged to the Ye Family.
Compared with the Ye Family, the Lu Family in Jinghai Province was even more powerful. However, the Lu industry covered many aspects, such as weaving, breeding, and real estate, and it was due to the efforts of several generations. Last year, the Ye group ranked 26th among the top 500 enterprises in Cathaysian State, while the Lu group ranked 17th. If Ye Bancheng had not passed away, with his amazing business talent, it was estimated that getting into the top 20 would be possible, or even overtaking the Lu group. Unfortunately, Ye Bancheng had passed away, but Yezi was still very young, and there were many opportunities to make the Ye Family prosperous and mightier in the future.
The Lu Family was not only rich in wealth, but also had high prestige in Jinghai Province, where the folk customs were tough. The Lu Family did not create any gangs or organizations, or even had any connection with the mafia on the surface. However, they knew all the people in the Underground World. There were a large number of minorities, including Tibetan, Hui, Tu, Salar and Mongolian besides the Han nationality in Jinghai Province. In addition, many kinds of religions were spread there, such as Buddhism and Christianity.
Because of this, Jinghai Province became the most complex province in Cathaysian State. The local folk were extremely fierce, even stronger than the people in the three northern provinces. Although the people in the three northern provinces were fierce deep down in their bones, they were gradually assimilated by the prosperous metropolis. The fierce spirit still existed, but it was not the same as before.
It was not the same case in Jinghai Province. There were lots of mountains and many people lived a nomadic existence, and all kinds of previous customs had been preserved. For example, they would hold wrestling competitions at some time of the year, and some young and energetic people would often prepare one year in advance, waiting for the wrestling competition when they could display their bravery in front of their relatives, friends or women. The local people liked to drink alcohol, so there was a kind of craziness and boldness in their bones, just like the local people in Inner Mongolia, Tibet and other places.
The Lu Family did not set up any organizations or gangs, and did not publicly announce that it was the leader of the local Underground World. However, their influence in the local area was still based on the influence of Master Hou in Hei province. As long as the Lu Family had a need, people of the local gangs, organizations and regions would immediately respond positively!
So some people said that the Lu Family was the heaven of Jinghai Province. In the past, Master Hou only dared to say that the night of Jiang City belonged to himself, and the day belonged to the country. The Lu Family dared to say that both day and night of Jinghai Province belonged to the Lu Family, because it had a relationship with the mafia on the surface, but it was not true, as the government could not find any problems with them!
Xiao Bing had known about the existence of the Lu family for a long time, and also knew that Lu Fan was the leader of the Lu family. After hearing Lu Fan’s self introduction, he immediately said with a smile, “It’s Mr. Lu. I’ve heard a lot about you. I did not expect that I would receive a call from Mr. Lu today. I’m flattered.”
Lu Fan said calmly, “Mr. Xiao Bing, I’ll come to the point. My son got into trouble in your territory and was taught a lesson by you. I think he deserves it. Children who don’t know the rules should be taught. Mr. Xiao Bing is the underground leader of the three northern provinces now. You are also a prestigious man in the whole country. Even I admire Mr. Xiao’s reputation. Why would such a powerful man like you pick a quarrel with an ignorant bastard. I hope Mr. Xiao Bing can do me a favor and let him go.”
Xiao Bing said with a smile, “It turns out that Mr. Lu called me for this matter?”
“Well, it’s a bit presumptuous.” Lu Fan was very patient in the face of Xiao Bing’s pressure. Their paths had not crossed before. Suddenly, Lu Fan made such a phone call. It must be due to this matter, or else what other matter could it be for?.
Xiao Bing said with a smile, “If Mr. Lu is calling me because of this matter, then it’s unnecessary. I’ll let your son go soon.”
Lu Fan breathed a sigh of relief, but he was not surprised. Although Xiao Bing was powerful in the three northern provinces, it was not necessary for him to embarrass the Lu family so openly for such a trivial matter. Anyway, the Lu family was also powerful.
Hearing Lu Fan’s sigh of relief, Xiao Bing went on to say, “But… Mr. Lu is a businessman. You don’t understand our rules. Our rules are that if you do something wrong, you must be punished. There is no exception for anyone.”
Lu Fan was stunned at first, and then he was completely furious. He lowered his voice and asked, “Mr. Xiao Bing, what do you want to do now?”
“Someone who offended me, scared my sister, and bullied me on my territory should not be let off… But Mr. Lu has always been a person I respect, so I decided to reduce the punishment by half. All of them will have only one of their legs broken, which is to save your face.”
Lu Fan was furious. There was obvious anger in his voice, but he did not plead for his son again. He said coldly, “Well, I will remember Mr. Xiao’s kindness this time. There will be rewards in the future. I will not disturb Mr. Xiao anymore. Goodbye!”
After Lu Fan hung up, Xiao Bing was sure that Lu Fan was a pesky and troublesome person. He was really calm. Though he knew that Xiao Bing was going to break his son’s leg, he did not put in a word of intercession. He seemed to be also a fierce and ambitious person.
King Kong, West Heaven King, said, “Brother Bing, that Lu Fan is a tough person to deal with.”
“I know.” Xiao Bing looked at the bound people on the ground and calmly gave an order. “Break one leg each, and let them go!”
King Kong said with a grim smile, “Brother Bing, I see.”
Xiao Bing stood up and said, “This kind of scene is too cruel. I am a kind-hearted person and can’t bear to see it. After I leave, you can do it. Oh, by the way, Lu Jinling, do you know why I have to break your leg? Because you made my sister sad and scared her. You should feel lucky that I did not kill you!”
Xiao Bing’s voice was cold and murderous, which made Lu Jinling swallow the scolding he was about to hurl at Xia Bing. But he believed that Xiao Bing dared to kill people. Before Xiao Bing took the kitchen knife and scared him into peeing in his pants, a shadow had already appeared in his heart. By comparison, it was good to only have a leg broken.
Xiao Bing left. After Xiao Bing’s car left, Lu Jinling started to yell at him. When he saw the other people’s legs being broken one by one, he howled miserably. Some of them fainted. It was now his turn. Then he began to beg for mercy, with his tears and snot coming out. King Kong held a stick in his hand and said with a grim smile, “It’s useless. In this field, no one dares to disobey Brother Bing’s instructions. What’s more, you even dared to offend Brother Bing. You are clearly looking for death!”
With this, the stick in King Kong’s hand directly smashed downward…
Xiao Bing drove away from the apartment and whistled happily. It was good to vent his spite. When Xiao Bing thought of Liu Xiaorui’s frightened appearance at that time, he could not conceal his killing intention.
Xiao Bing had no family since he was a child, and he finally had a sister. Liu Xiaorui was his only family member in the world. He naturally treated and cared her like his real sister.
Xiao Bing did not care that he had offended the leader of the Lu Family at all, although Lu Fan was powerful in Jinghai Province. It was not Jinghai Province but Hei province. It was Xiao Bing’s territory!
Xiao Bing drove directly to The Xiaoxiao Noodle House. It was still early. Moreover, Xiao Bing learned the noodle-making skills from the Su Family. But he only worked in the noodle house for the first two months. After that, he was busy with all kinds of things and seldom went to the noodle house.
Now, only Xiao Bing and Li Chunlan could make their special noodles. They almost did not allow Li Chunlan to work at the noodle because of her poor health. After all, Zhang Yizhi said that there was not much left in her life.
Su Xiaoxiao often helped in the daytime. Since her elder sister’s death, and her mother’s illness, she seemed to become more mature overnight. The Xiaoxiao Noodle House was the fruit of painstaking labor of her parents’ whole lifetime. She wanted to help her mother support this noodle house.
Xiao Bing stopped his car nearby and went to the noodle house. It was busy in the noodle house as it was now lunch time. Just as Xiao Bing came to the door, he heard the sound of happy footsteps behind him and the sound of girls laughing. One of the girls was surprised. “Ah, isn’t that Brother Bing in front?”
Xiao Bing smiled. When he heard the voice, he knew who was talking. After turning around, he saw two little beauties coming over, hand in hand.
The two young girls were about 20 years old. The one on the left had long hair and an oval face. Her skin was white and smooth. She looked pretty and seemed to be very good natured.
The one on the right had a round face with big eyes and had an average appearance. However, it was obvious that she was very vivacious.
The two girls were the two female students who were best friends with Yezi. They were Xu Wenting and Chen Yuanyuan, who always visited this noodle house with Yezi.
