Chapter 310 This is a matter of face and must be taken seriously (two chapters in one)
Spiritual world, Dongwu City.
Early in the morning, there were many people busy on the dock next to a river that ran through Dongwucheng.
Workers wearing linen shirts and wet towels hanging from their necks were unloading goods from a cargo ship docked at the dock.
Although the sun had just risen from the sky not long ago and the temperature in the morning was not very hot, the workers who were carrying goods back and forth from the cargo ship were already sweating profusely.
"Don't be lazy. Please be more agile with your hands and feet. In a while, another cargo ship will arrive. Quickly unload this cargo."
Although the sweaty workers were not lazy, the supervisors responsible for monitoring them still felt that the workers' work efficiency had not reached their limit and kept urging them.
If you look at the dozen supervisors supervising the workers on the dock, you will find that they all have a tattoo on the back of their hands.
These overseers are members of the Red Blood Gang, and this dock is the property of the Red Blood Gang.
Not far from the dock, there are warehouses built. These warehouses are used to temporarily store goods unloaded from ships.
A little further behind these large and small warehouses, there is an open space. Many brand-new houses have been built on this open space. These houses are the residences of members of the Red Blood Gang.
Compared to the residences of the Bluestone Gang members, the residences of the Red Blood Gang members are obviously much better.
Precisely because the Scarlet Blood Gang owns a dock that makes a lot of money every day, it is wealthier than the Bluestone Gang and is more generous in providing benefits to its members.
At this moment, many people gathered in the meeting hall of the Red Blood Gang.
Sitting in the main seat is a middle-aged man in his forties with a kind face. He is 1.9 meters tall, slightly fat, with a protruding belly. He is wearing loose clothes.
This tall, fat, middle-aged man is the leader of the Red Blood Gang, named Hong Jiu. Although he looks kind and looks like a good guy, he is actually a ruthless character.
"Do you know who did it?" Hong Jiu, who was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, asked in an emotionless tone as he looked at the two motionless bodies lying on the ground with their faces covered with cloth.
The small leaders of the Red Blood Gang in the meeting hall looked at each other, and no one answered the question of their gang leader.
The two members were found dead in an alley by passers-by.
After a passer-by reported it to the police, the Yamen knew that it was a member of the Red Blood Gang. They just thought it was a fight between gangs. Seeing that no innocent civilian casualties were caused, they were not very willing to pay attention to it and directly asked the people from the Red Blood Gang to pick it up. go back.
"I'm asking you a question! Are all of them mute?" Seeing that no one answered his question, Hong Jiu's tone became more serious, and his body emitted quite stressful spiritual energy fluctuations.
When the little bosses in the meeting hall heard Hong Jiu's tone increase, they knew that the anger in their boss's heart was rising rapidly. If he didn't answer the question, he would definitely be scolded.
It was early in the morning, and everyone didn't want to be scolded, so the little bosses all turned their attention to the man sitting on a chair to Hong Jiu's right.
The man was in his thirties, with a medium build and a square face. He had a bookish air about him and seemed out of place with the others in the meeting hall.
This person's name is Fang Jingtang, and he was a scholar before joining the Red Blood Gang.
Although he is not as good as anyone present in terms of force, his management and accounting skills are very strong. He manages the Red Blood Gang in an orderly manner and calculates every day's accounts clearly. He is a rare talent.
As the leader of the Scarlet Blood Gang, Hong Jiu has no shortage of thugs, so he values talents like Fang Jingtang very much and will seek Fang Jingtang's views and opinions on many issues.
Moreover, when Hong Jiu was about to get angry, Fang Tangjing also became a group of small leaders of the Red Blood Gang who wanted to be scolded. The only person they needed help from was that he could calm down the angry gang leader.
"cough."
Just as Hong Jiu's anger continued to rise, Fang Jingtang coughed lightly when he received a look asking for help.
Then, he turned his head to look at Hong Jiu, who was about to get angry, and said, "Gang leader, calm down first. In the absence of witnesses, it will take some time to investigate to find the murderer.
If you give them some time, they will be able to find the murderer. "
When the little bosses heard Fang Jingtang speak, they immediately echoed, "Gang leader, please give us some time. Even if we dig three feet into the ground, we will find the guy who killed our brother."
"Okay, I'll give you three days. No matter life or death, you must find that bastard who humiliated our Red Blood Gang." Hong Jiu said, suppressing the anger in his heart.
He hasn't been this angry for more than ten years. Since he defeated a rival gang that competed with him for this dock ten years ago, no one has dared to mess with their Red Blood Gang.
Now, someone actually dared to disturb Tai Sui and killed two members of the Red Blood Gang at once. This was simply a slap in Hong Jiu's face.
In fact, Hong Jiu didn't care about the life or death of the two minions.
What he cares more about is that people from other gangs will laugh at him after this incident spreads.
It's a joke to say that the members of the Red Blood Gang were killed without any explanation, and they didn't even know who the murderer was.
"Yes, within three days, we will definitely find the murderer..." The little leaders of the Red Blood Gang nodded and agreed in unison.
They are thinking in their minds at this moment. After this meeting is over, they will immediately send out their subordinates to investigate with all their strength who killed the members of their gang.
After Hong Jiu finished explaining the matter, he raised his hand and said, "The meeting is dismissed."
And just when the young leaders of the Red Blood Gang were about to leave the meeting hall, a gang boy approached the meeting hall and reported.
"To report to the gang leader, I picked up a letter on my way to the toilet. It said that this letter was written to the gang leader..."
As the younger brother spoke, he showed a letter in his hand to everyone present. The envelope indeed said "Collected by Gang Leader Hong".
However, the writing on this envelope is too ugly and crooked. Looking at the person who wrote it, it seems that he has no education.
Of course, the only educated people present were Hong Jiu and Fang Jingtang. The others were not very educated, so except for them, the other little bosses didn't feel ugly when they looked at the crooked words on the envelope.
Hong Jiu generally would not take the initiative to contact such letters from unknown sources.
"Bring it to me and take a look." Fang Jingtang took the initiative to greet this young man without any need for Hong Jiu to signal.
After Fang Jingtang got the letter, he opened it in front of everyone, took out the letter paper inside, and quickly browsed it.
"Huh!!!"
There was not much content on the letter, and Fang Jingtang read it all in a short time. After reading the content on the letter, he couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Hong Jiu asked, "What's written on it?"
"Gang leader, the person who wrote the letter claims that he accidentally witnessed the entire process of the murderer killing our people. He knows where the murderer lives now and wrote the murderer's address on the letter." Fang Jingtang said.
"What? Is there such a thing?" The little bosses originally thought that after the meeting was over, they would send their younger brothers to find the murderer. Unexpectedly, someone actually came to inform them, which surprised them all.
"Bring it to me and take a look." Hong Jiu reached out and took the letter from Fang Jingtang. He looked at the words written on it and saw that they were really crooked and ugly.
When he finished reading, he handed the letter in his hand to others for circulation.
"What a nosy guy, I'm going to tear his head off." A grumpy little leader of the Red Blood Gang cursed after reading what was written in the letter.
Other little leaders immediately followed suit, and for a while, the quiet meeting hall was filled with obscenities.
Hong Jiu frowned and raised his right hand to signal his subordinates to be quiet.
Seeing the actions of their gang leader's hands, the little bosses immediately shut their mouths, but the anger on their faces did not subside.
In their opinion, didn't their two brothers just rob a woman? What's the big deal? He dared to beat them to death. He was really brave.
"Mr. Fang, what do you think of the content of this letter?" Hong Jiu asked Fang Jingtang.
He did not immediately believe a letter from an unknown source. After all, he had been on the road for so many years and finally survived. With his current achievements, he was not a reckless person.
"Gang leader, we can't tell whether this letter is genuine or not. However, since this letter has specified the murderer's address, we can just send someone to verify it. It won't take much time anyway," Fang Jingtang said.
"Yes." Hong Jiu nodded, that was exactly what he meant, so he glanced at his men. Without him having to speak, the angry-looking little bosses rushed to recommend themselves one by one.
"Gang leader, leave this matter to me! Let me go find that guy to check."
"Let me come, I haven't moved my hands and feet for a while, and my hands are very itchy."
"Let me do it! I haven't moved my hands and feet for longer than you."
"Stop arguing, let me take care of this matter. After all, these two dead brothers are my subordinates."
Everyone's eyes fell on the bald man sitting in the corner of the meeting hall.
This bald man has a thick build, big shoulders and a round waist, and his eyes are bloodshot. He obviously didn't sleep well last night.
At this moment, with a gloomy look on his face, he looked at the two dead people lying on the ground in the meeting hall.
The little bosses originally wanted to compete to show off in front of the gang leader, but now they are all quiet.
After all, everyone said that the deceased belonged to him, so it was obviously the most reasonable thing to leave this matter to him. It would be a bit disrespectful for others to fight for it.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, you must confirm that the other party is indeed the murderer before taking action.
Also, judging from the injuries on their bodies, the murderer is a practitioner with a certain level of cultivation. Please bring some good hands with you..." Hong Jiu said.
"Yes, Gang Leader." The tall, round-waisted bald man nodded, showing some psychic energy fluctuations on his body.
Hong Jiu saw that Fang Jingtang seemed to have something to say, so he said, "Mr. Fang, do you have anything to explain?"
"After confirming that the other party is the murderer, don't do it in a crowded place. After all, Zhou Tianci, the young master of the Zhou family, was beaten violently in the street. The thug has not been found yet, and it caused quite a big fuss.
Now the Yamen has sent us a message to keep ourselves safe for a month, so once you do something in public, it will be very detrimental to us. "Fang Jingtang reminded.
"Did you hear that? Mr. Fang's reminder should be kept in mind. Don't act impulsively in front of a crowd of passers-by." Hong Jiu said to the bald man with broad shoulders and a round waist.
"Gang leader, Mr. Fang, please rest assured. I will keep this in mind and will not bring trouble to the gang and let people from the yamen come to visit me." The tall, round-waisted bald man replied seriously.
Afterwards, everyone who attended the meeting left the meeting hall.
After the bald man with broad shoulders and round waist came out of the meeting hall, he immediately summoned several young men with cultivation skills, and then headed towards the inn where the suspected murderer lived.
Behind a leafy tree on the street, a tall, bald man walked out from behind the tree.
He looked at the tall, round-waisted bald man leading his little brother in the direction he was leaving, with an expression on his face that he was watching a good show.
Then, he thought about it and decided to go back first and tell his elder brother about it.
…………
In an inn in the east of the city, a figure appeared out of thin air in the guest room.
Lin Li, who was wearing a gray training uniform, took off his sunglasses and put them into the mysterious island.
After walking out of the guest room, Lin Li went to the door of the guest room next door and knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong."
Not long after the knock on the door, I heard footsteps coming from the guest room.
"Who is it?"
The woman in the guest room came to the door. She didn't open the door immediately, but asked cautiously.
Lin Li could understand Qin Muqing's caution. After all, he had encountered such a dangerous robbery before, and normal people would have this reaction.
"it's me."
When Qin Muqing heard the familiar voice, she quickly pulled the bolt and opened the door.
"Benefactor."
After opening the door, Qin Muqing quickly stepped aside and invited Lin Li into the room.
"I won't go in. I came here to tell you that I'm going out to look for a house." Lin Li said.
"Yeah." Qin Muqing nodded.
Lin Li looked at this ordinary-looking, dull woman and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet!" Qin Muqing said softly.
"It's already here and you haven't eaten yet? You must have been up for a while, right?"
"Um."
"..." Lin Li was silent for a few seconds, thinking that this woman must be too embarrassed to ask the waiter to order food.
"Why……"
Lin Li sighed inwardly, "Didn't I tell you yesterday? If you want to eat or something, just call the waiter.
Remember, only when you are full can you have the strength to work. After I find a house, there are a lot of housework for you to do at home, so you have to eat well.
Moreover, when it’s time to eat, don’t save it for me. I don’t need that little money. "
"Yeah." Qin Muqing nodded.
Lin Li saw that this honest and dull woman seemed to have listened to his words, so he stopped nagging and left a message to ask the waiter to bring her a breakfast later, and then left.
The honest and dull woman looked at Lin Li who was leaving and disappeared at the top of the stairs, and she looked away.
After closing the door, the woman's dull look disappeared in an instant, and her eyes were filled with vivid colors.
