After being abandoned by my family, I became a pet store owner

Chapter 20

"Haha, Zhang Yun, you are here to open the shop so early, you are really a hardworking guy."

The yellow-haired young man hooked Zhang Yun's shoulder and walked forward. He took out a pack of Liqun, shook out a cigarette, and handed it to Zhang Yun.

"Want one to refresh yourself?"

"No, I don't smoke." Zhang Yun gently pushed.

"Why, don't you give me face?" The yellow-haired young man smiled and twisted his neck, and the hanging gold chain swayed left and right.

"Okay, then I'll smoke one." Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows, took a cigarette from the cigarette box, and held it in his hand.

"Hey, that's right, a cigarette in the morning, happy like a fairy."

The yellow-haired young man smiled happily, took a cigarette from the cigarette box, and threw the whole pack of cigarettes to the younger brothers behind him.

The younger brothers took it with a laugh, divided the cigarettes, and put the rest in their pockets.

The yellow-haired young man, nicknamed Gou Qiang, is a member of the local Viper Gang. He has seven or eight younger brothers under him, who are responsible for collecting protection fees in this area.

From small roadside vendors to large restaurants and gold shops, protection fees are collected by him.

Although Gou Qiang is just an ordinary person with a combat power of no more than 5 points, any illusionist can easily crush him to death.

But in this area, no one dares to mess with him.

The reason is simple, he is a vicious dog raised by the Viper Gang.

The Viper Gang is the most powerful underground gang in this neighborhood, with more than a thousand gang members, including many illusionists.

The boss of the Viper Gang is said to be a retired senior city defense army. His illusionist level has reached level six and he owns a level seven demon king snake.

While he is powerful, he is also cruel and ruthless, killing people's families at any time.

For ordinary people, a level six illusionist is already a top existence, and ordinary people dare not resist.

What's more, the Viper Gang is just a vanguard, and there are more powerful forces behind it. Even the official staff have to give it some face.

Based on this, almost no one dares to provoke the Viper Gang in the local area.

As the number one gang in the local area, the Viper Gang is also extremely cautious and careful, and never provokes any shops and stalls opened by the illusionist.

Even if the illusionist is only level one, the Viper Gang will not offend.

Relying on this caution, the Viper Gang has been smooth sailing and has been entrenched in the local area for 20 years without any major crisis.

Usually, the Viper Gang is unwilling to provoke trainee trainers like Zhang Yun.

However, Zhang Yun's predecessor's trainer license was too watery, and the Viper Gang did not recognize it.

Therefore, Gou Qiang would bring people here every month to collect protection fees.

Zhang Yun's predecessor was a bully at home, but he was very timid outside. He did not dare to tell his grandfather about this and chose to pay the protection fee obediently.

Zhang Yun's predecessor paid 5,000 yuan in protection fees every month. Over the past three years, he paid nearly 200,000 yuan in protection fees alone.

This was undoubtedly a huge burden on Zhang Yun's predecessor's store operation.

The sudden death of Zhang Yun's predecessor was also closely related to the pressure of collecting protection fees.

"Huh..."

Gou Qiang exhaled a puff of smoke comfortably, blew it on Zhang Yun's face, and said jokingly: "Brother, are you ready for the protection fee? If your store business is not good, I can give you a few days."

"If you want to make some extra money, Gou can also help you. Many rich women like handsome little milk dogs like you the most, hehe."

Gou Qiang has a good personality. Unlike other gangsters who shout and kill, he always has a smiling and easy-going attitude when talking to people.

Of course, the premise is to give him face.

If you don't give him face, he will take out a bayonet and stab you in the ribs like a mad dog.

"I can't afford a 380-pound rich woman. 5,000 yuan for protection, right? I'm ready." Zhang Yun fanned his palms slightly to dispel the smoke lingering around his nose.

"Brother, it's 6,000."

"Hasn't it always been 5,000? Has the price increased?" Zhang Yun asked.

Gou Qiang sighed and nodded, "You know, the domestic inflation is serious recently. Many shops are having a hard time doing business and have chosen to close down."

"The membership fees are getting less and less. The brothers in the gang are almost unable to make ends meet."

"Brother Huoshe said that starting from this month, the membership fees in all blocks will increase by 50% for good business and 20% for bad business."

"Your pet shop has always been doing poorly. I know this. So, I will only charge you 1,000 more. Is that good enough?"

"It's quite good."

Zhang Yun smiled slightly, took out the stack of banknotes that Lin Yuwei gave him yesterday, and handed it over: "Here is 10,000, keep it."

Gou Qiang's eyes lit up and said, "Brother, you pay for two months at a time? According to the rules of the gang, you can get a discount if you pay for two months. Well, I'll count it as your payment for two months."

Gou Qiang took the money and casuallyHe threw it to the younger brother behind him, who caught it swiftly, put it in his pocket, and laughed and called Zhang Yun a coward.

Zhang Yun ignored him and said with a smile: "Brother Gou, I think you misunderstood me."

"What do you mean?"

Gou Qiang held a cigarette in his right hand, scratched his temple with his thumb, and looked a little puzzled.

Zhang Yun paused, looked at him sideways, and said, "I gave you 10,000 to round it up. Adding all the protection fees I paid before, it's exactly 200,000."

"This 200,000 is the money I invested in your Viper Gang in the past three years. Taking into account inflation and other things, the Viper Gang only needs to pay me 2 million with interest."

"Isn't that too much?"

"Puff..."

Gou Qiang couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, you haven't woken up yet, are you talking in your sleep?"

"Hey, wait, what's the matter with the mark on your forehead? Did you draw it yourself?"

As he said that, Gou Qiang dipped his finger in saliva and pressed it towards Zhang Yun's forehead, intending to wipe off the mark of the Force.

At this time, Zhang Yun opened his eyes slightly.

Bang——!

With a muffled sound, Gou Qiang felt as if his body was hit by an eight-ton truck. He flew out and hit the electric pole on the side of the road hard.

Bang!

The metal electric pole suddenly shook, and was knocked down. The wires danced wildly, and sparks flew everywhere!

Gou Qiang slowly slid down from the pole, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and looked at Zhang Yun with a look as if he had seen a ghost.

"You... you are really an illusion... puff..."

Before he could finish his words, he spit out another mouthful of blood, tilted his head, and fainted.

"Murder!"

"Run quickly, be careful not to be implicated!"

The small vendors on the nearby streets were shocked when they saw this, and fled with their stalls and carts.

The passers-by along the way were also shocked and scattered away in fear.

In this high-level martial arts world, the aftermath of the battle is extremely terrifying. If ordinary people dare to stay where they are and watch the excitement, they may be affected and die without a complete body.

The most correct way is to escape from the scene as quickly as possible.

In a blink of an eye, Zhang Yun and a group of thugs holding daggers and knives were the only ones left in a corner of the huge street.

"Brother Gou!"

"Fuck! This guy actually dared to sneak attack Brother Gou, let's beat him together!"

"Go, stab him!"

"Go!"

The thugs were all panicked, pulling out all kinds of daggers and short knives, shouting for a long time, but no one dared to step forward.

They all noticed the orange mark on Zhang Yun's forehead.

This is the identity mark of a Level 2 Beast Master!

For ordinary people, the Beast Master is like a superman.

Even if he doesn't summon a beast, his combat power is far beyond that of ordinary people, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people can fight with cold weapons.

Although there are as many as 7 or 8 thugs, they are so scared that their legs are weak, and no one dares to step forward.

There is no trace of the fierce and perverse look when dealing with ordinary people in the past.

Zhang Yun glanced at them calmly and said, "Tell your Brother Huoshe that I, Zhang Yun, will give him seven days to prepare."

"If he doesn't hand over the 2 million yuan I invested within seven days, I, Zhang Yun, will personally visit him after seven days."

"By then, 2 million yuan won't be enough."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Yun took a step and walked towards the store, without making things difficult for these small soldiers and crab generals.

Now, his vision has been raised, and he is too lazy to crush this kind of little Karami.

The little hooligans who were laughing and acting very arrogant before dared not say a word at this time, and just watched Zhang Yun walk away.

They dared to move only after Zhang Yun's back disappeared at the corner of the street.

Some went over to help Gou Qiang and check his injuries.

Some of them cursed and threatened to kill Zhang Yun's family, and took out their phones to contact higher-level cadres in the gang...

...

At this time, Zhang Yun had already arrived at the door of the Niubi Pet Shop.

A Rolls-Royce was parked next to the door.

A muscular man in a suit with a scar on his face and a height of more than two meters stood beside the door like an iron tower.

Seeing Zhang Yun coming to open the door, he lowered his head and stared coldly at Zhang Yun's profile with his eagle-like eyes.

His thick lips slowly split open, and he uttered a voice as cold as metal: "Where is the boss, why didn't you come?"

"It's me, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Yun glanced at him sideways, and the mark of the Force between his eyebrows was cyan.

Cyan represents level five. This muscular man in a suit is an intermediate beast master, and his strength is not weak.

"You are late. You said you would open the door at 8 o'clock, but you made my young master and young lady wait until 8:10, delaying their school time. You have to give me an explanation."

"I have the habit of arriving early."

Zhang Yun opened the door and said expressionlessly: "If you don't want to patronize my business, get out. Don't act like a big shot in front of me. You are not worthy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yun was about to step into the store.

"Level 2 Illusionist, what are you so arrogant about!"

The man in the suit shouted in a low voice, and stretched out his five fingers like steel bars, grabbing Zhang Yun's neck.

"Too many hands?"

Zhang Yun's eyes suddenly stretched, and his hundred times mental power suddenly activated, forming a wild and domineering telekinetic wave, which hit the palm of the strong man fiercely.

Bang——!

"Ah——! "

The sturdy man let out a dull scream, and the whole person seemed to be hit by a hammer, and flew backwards more than ten meters away, hitting the opposite wall.

Boom!

The entire wall was dented and spread with countless cracks.

And the right arm he had just stretched out was bent 90 degrees and completely broken.

As for his five fingers, they were twisted like twists, and they were completely useless!

At this time, his ferocious face was covered with cold sweat, and the look he gave Zhang Yun was actually A trace of fear appeared on his face.

That's right, he was scared!

Because he could clearly sense how powerful the telekinetic wave Zhang Fan had just released was.

If it hit his head, his head would explode like a watermelon!

Strong, this young man is too strong!

Who is he? Why is he so unknown in Jiangnan City when he is so strong?

At this moment.

There was no resentment or unwillingness in the eyes of the strong man, only deep awe...
