“No!”
Ji Feng shook his head and said, “Uncle Zheng, don’t make any arrangements yet, I want to go and meet this Prince Kong first!”
Zheng Yuanshan frowned at once.
Ji Feng was going to meet Prince Kong?
“Little Feng, I don’t think there’s a need for that, right? As the saying goes, porcelain doesn’t touch tiles, Prince Kong is just a rascal in Southern Guangdong, why do you need to go face to face with him?” Zheng Yuanshan persuaded, “I see it this way, since you just want to go and ask for the person, then just ask for the person back, the rest of the matter, I will gradually deal with ……”
Ji Feng shook his head at his words and said, “Uncle Zheng, do you think I’m being impetuous or young and impetuous, that’s why I’m going to meet this Liu Gang for a while?”
Zheng Yuansan said, “No matter what, the two of you are not on equal footing, you’re lifting him up by going instead!”
Ji Feng then couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh, Zheng Yuanshan saying so was actually tacitly agreeing, just thinking that he was young and exuberant, hearing how prestigious this prince Kong was in Southern Guangdong, and then wanting to go and meet him.
“Uncle Zheng, you also said just now that this prince Kong is very powerful in Southern Guangdong. Since that’s the case, then I’d like to go and see it.” Ji Feng smiled and said, “Don’t worry, if it’s not necessary, I won’t do it indiscriminately!”
“Meet and see? What do you want to see?” Hearing this, Zheng Yuanshan could not help but ask in surprise.
“I want to learn how crazy this Liu Gang really is!” Ji Feng said, “To be able to run roughshod over Southern Guangdong for so many years, one must be more or less capable to do so!”
He said, “Little Feng, you may not know that since I came to Nan Yue, I have secretly arranged three raids on Liu Gang’s hotels and other entertainment venues. The others don’t carry any communication devices.”
“But the three consecutive raids have all failed.”
“This actually failed?”
Ji Feng asked in a somewhat strange manner, “What happened? Is it because there is too much pressure from above? Or is it ……”
Zheng Yuanshan said, “These three operations, one of them was a flop, after the operatives arrived at the Four Dimensions Hotel, but found that the inside had been cleaned up long ago, and there wasn’t even a single person on the ground floor, but just shortly before this, there were still eyes that clearly saw various illegal establishments operating down here! The other two operations, on the other hand, before anyone had even set off, they received the news that the illegal people in the Four Dimensions Hotel had moved on and the operation was forced to be temporarily cancelled.”
Ji Feng blurted out, “A leak?!”
Zheng Yuanshan nodded slightly and said, “That’s right, it was leaked! This is also the reason why I am meeting you here today and not in my office. If I were to meet you in my office, I believe that in a very short time, someone would have known that you were coming to South Guangdong.”
Ji Feng shook his head and smiled, saying, “It doesn’t matter to me, I haven’t broken the law or done anything harmful, so even if people know I’m here in Nan Yue, it’s fine. However, Uncle Zheng, these three consecutive raids have actually leaked, this is not a good sign!”
“Unbridled!”
Zheng Yuanshan sneered and said, “Ever since I came to Nan Yue, it has been difficult to carry out my work, it took a full year to make a breakthrough, but now it is still very complicated within the system.”
Ji Feng asked, “You said before that your deputy named Zhang Xin was related to Liu Gang?”
Zheng Yuansan nodded and said, “The relationship is very close!”
“Then could it be that he tipped off Liu Gang?” Ji Feng asked.
“There are many people to suspect, but no evidence can be caught.” Zheng Yuanshan said, “In those three raids, because of the lessons learned from the first two, the last time I didn’t use the cadre of police from Yuezhou, but directly transferred the SWAT team, and did so in strict secrecy, but still pounced on it.”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but frown.
Zheng Yuansan said, “From this you can understand how extensive Liu Gang’s network of connections is.”
Ji Feng sneered, “In that case, I’m even more interested in this Crown Prince Kong, I’d love to see if he has three heads and six arms and can actually call the shots in Southern Guangdong!”
Zheng Yuansan said, “Liu Gang is just a rogue!”
Ji Feng smiled slightly, Zheng Yuanshan had not said Liu Gang was a rogue for the first time, Ji Feng heard a little something else in his words, “Uncle Zheng, what you mean is ……”
Zheng Yuansan said, “According to the information I got, and the information I’ve learned since arriving in Southern Guangdong, this Liu Gang, is probably just a spokesman, and those networks behind him are the best proof of that!”
Ji Feng blurted out, “A spokesman for the Wu family?!”
Zheng Yuanshan didn’t answer, but asked, “What do you think?”
Ji Feng frowned, “This possibility does exist, but would it be too small? The Wu family can already cover the sky with one hand in Southern Guangdong, so why would they need to support a spokesperson? And before this, Rong Peng was the spokesperson of the Wu family, right?”
Zheng Yuanshan shook his head and said, “That’s because you haven’t been exposed to the dark side of society! I’m afraid you don’t know how lucrative this path really is, do you? It will definitely exceed your imagination!”
Ji Feng pondered.
Zheng Yuanshan said, “Take the simplest example, just one district in Yuezhou, let’s say the lowest level of illegal operation – slot machines, how much revenue is generated in just one district in a month? On top of that, gambling machines that can easily win or lose tens of thousands of dollars, and underground casinos, how much revenue do these generate each year?”
Ji Feng raised an eyebrow, realising that he really didn’t know much about these, but the answers to these questions might really surprise him.
“How many kinds of sources of profit there really are on the Dao, people who haven’t experienced it first hand, who haven’t really been involved in it, can’t even imagine it!” Zheng Yuansan said, “These gambling machines slot machines and the like are still just small fry, the real ones with amazing profits can’t be mentioned without smuggling,White Face …… Now you should understand why the Wu family has to foster such an agent, right?”
Ji Feng was silent for a while before he said, “Unimaginable!”
Unimaginable indeed!
If Zheng Yuanshan didn’t say it, Ji Feng really couldn’t imagine this, he had heard of slot machines and gambling machines and such making money before, and he also knew that casinos even had a staggering amount of money flowing every day, but he never thought that if all these things were in the hands of one person or one party’s power, how amazing the profits would be if they were brought together!
“The wealth Liu Gang holds in his hands is definitely not worse than the former Rong Peng Group!” Zheng Yuansan said.
Ji Feng couldn’t help but be shocked!
Zheng Yuansan said, “Does it make sense why Liu Gang has such a wide network of connections? Fostering a spokesman in the Dao, and a proper industry on the surface, huge amounts of money can easily be cleared, and if there is trouble, this spokesman can be thrown out as a scapegoat at any time, no pressure at all, and it’s clean enough!”
Ji Feng nodded slowly and said, “Understood.”
Zheng Yuansan said, “If you want to meet Liu Gang now, you will have to confront the network behind Liu Gang once again, the Wu family will not give up Liu Gang as a cash cow so easily, what will be the consequences then, you should understand!”
What will be the consequences? It would definitely be a fierce game, one could even say that it would be a fierce fight!
This was clear to Zheng Yuanshan, and Ji Feng certainly understood it even better.
“Rong Peng has already defected, and although the current Brilliant Group is still a behemoth, it has already shown signs of being strong from the outside. Moreover, it is said that the profits of the Brilliant Group are now declining quite a lot.” Zheng Yuanshan said, “If you move Liu Gang again …… you think about it.”
If you move Liu Gang again, I’m afraid the Wu family will fight for their lives in an emergency!
This is what Zheng Yuansan did not finish saying.
Ji Feng nodded and smiled and said, “No wonder you said this matter is a bit complicated, so it is!”
Yang Xiaoyi’s trouble actually involved the Wu family, moreover, there was such a huge network of connections behind this, this was really something Ji Feng had not expected before.
Zheng Yuansan said, “If you just want to save that little girl’s father, then this matter is not complicated, unless Liu Gang is crazy!”
Nowadays, the Wu family is just the time to recuperate, if they start another big conflict with Ji Feng or even with the whole Ji family over a person, it would definitely do the Wu family more harm than good, even if Liu Gang were to go crazy, the Wu family would definitely not agree!
“Then …… I’m counting on Uncle Zheng, you help me get the man out, I won’t pursue the rest of the matter.” Ji Feng nodded his head and finally made a decision.
“No problem!”
Zheng Yuanshan immediately nodded his head, but in his heart, he sent a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of was Ji Feng’s youthfulness and his insistence to move Liu Gang after listening to his briefing, in that case, a violent conflict would definitely break out between the two sides.
Of course, the Ji family is not afraid of playing games with the Wu family, but the responsibility of risking provoking a game between two major factions is not small. Moreover, a fierce collision between two huge behemoths that cover the sky would have serious consequences that even one can think of with one’s toes.
This kind of collision, can avoid or try to avoid.
Now that Ji Feng had nodded his head and spat out his mouth Zheng Yuanshan naturally agreed to help gladly. However, he could also see the flash of reluctance and regret in Ji Feng’s eyes. Zheng Yuanshan could not help but be secretly alarmed, it seemed that Ji Feng really intended to fight with the Wu family!
Zheng Yuanshan decided to get that little girl’s father out as soon as possible, and the sooner the better.
“Uncle Zheng, that’s all for now, I still have a bit of business on my side, call me anytime to let me know if you have any results on your side.” Ji Feng stood up, he had promised Yang Xiaoyi that he would go and look for her, now that he had made arrangements, he naturally had to go and take a look.
Zheng Yuanshan was full of promises.
