Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 451
Chapter 451: There’s Money We Can Earn Together
Riding in a pickup truck, they drove into the black market, and there were armed people everywhere.
Lin Dong swallowed his saliva and subconsciously asked Xu Cheng, “Teacher, are those guns all real?”
“Do you want to give it a try?” Xu Cheng could tell that Lin Dong hadn’t seen such a scene in his whole life.
“Dong, I’ve told you since the beginning, following me around isn’t a joke. Inside Huaxia, you would only see the bright side of society, but from now on, you will see the dark side of the world where interests of major powers collide. In this world, some people like peace, and some people enjoy war. If you become scared, then those people would only take advantage of your weakness to bully you.”
Lin Dong looked around at the black market, everyone looked ever fierce and heavily armed.
To be honest, it was his first time even seeing such a chaotic place, even including movies.
Maybe it was because it was his first time, he appeared very nervous and scared. After all, he was just a naive brat, and no matter how rebellious he was, he would be scared of being in this kind of a place where he could die any second.
Xu Cheng brought him directly to Saar’s base camp.
At the gate, two armed guards aimed their rifles at them. “This isn’t a place you can just come and leave. Get the fack out of here!”
Seeing the gun pointed at him, Lin Dong didn’t even dare to move a finger, and his back was covered in sweat.
Xu Cheng suddenly moved. He grabbed onto both guns and pulled, directly pulling the two guards onto the ground. Then, he broke both rifles into two pieces.
One of them got up and still tried to fight back, but Xu Cheng kicked him in the throat and knocked him unconscious immediately.
At this moment, a huge crowd of people rushed out of the villa and surrounded Xu Cheng.
“Who are you?!”
Seeing so many guns pointing at them, Lin Dong was so nervous that he no longer knew what to do.
This scene… was a bit suffocating.
“I’m looking for Saar, tell him that Mr. Fang is here. (Refer back to Chapter 268: Fang is slang for the Diamond suit cards) If he doesn’t want to come out and welcome me, then I will just go in myself.”
“Go in yourself?” At this moment, Saar’s men were very irritated. “You can give that a try. I will shoot you in the head!”
Immediately after that, the person that just spoke was sent flying away, being kicked by Xu Cheng so fast that no one even saw clearly.
Five more people wanted to pull the trigger, but Xu Cheng didn’t give them the chance at all. He swept the ground with his foot, directly kicking up a wave of sand into their eyes. Then, Xu Cheng grabbed onto one of their rifles and gave each of them a shot in the thigh!
All five of them fell to the ground, crying miserably. The guns were all kicked out of their hands by Xu Cheng.
“You are always like this when you come. Can’t you just use your mouth more, man…” At this time, Saar came out from the villa and said helplessly with his palm out.
“It’s best for your men to remember me. If they dare to block my way next time, I will kill them right away.” Xu Cheng tossed away the rifle, sneered, and led Lin Dong towards Saar.
Saar had his other men clean up the scene and led Xu Cheng into the villa.
For the whole time, Lin Dong followed carefully with his tail between his legs.
After entering the big hall of Saar’s villa, Xu Cheng sat down and picked up a cigar that was in a box on Saar’s table and passed it to Lin Dong. “Do you smoke?”
Lin Dong shook his head.
Xu Cheng didn’t force it. He lit one up, and Saar said heartbreakingly, “That is a top-tier Cuban cigar, even I would hesitate before smoking one. If you don’t know how to smoke it then don’t waste it.”
Xu Cheng inhaled and puffed out a cloud of smoke. “The reason for my visit today is actually just to help you make more money so you can buy more cigars like this.”
Saar smiled. “If I didn’t guess wrong, you are into doing sneaky things, right? Could it be that you want me to go and steal things with you?”
He still remembered that last time, Xu Cheng stole some relics and came here before killing off the entire Sonora Family.
Xu Cheng said nonchalantly, “I know the four mafia families here all have branches in the M Nation. You guys almost control half of the gangs over there. Here, I have a money-making project that I want everyone to participate in to make money together. I don’t want to deal with some of the hassles nor be disturbed, and I know you guys can help me take care of those. Of course, I can take care of the troubles myself, but until absolutely necessary, I don’t want to do it.”
Saar smiled. “I don’t know, Mr. Fang, how profitable is this project going to be?”
“No rush.” Xu Cheng smiled and said to Saar, “You can go and call over the other three families, I’m just afraid that you can’t chew off this big of a pie yourself.”
Saar laughed. “Oh sh*t, a couple tens of millions?”
Xu Cheng shook his head. “Call them over first. Don’t worry, if it’s just a small project I wouldn’t have bothered coming over.”
Seeing that Xu Cheng didn’t seem to be joking, Saar took out his phone and called the leaders of the other three families and told them to come over to discuss something important.
When the three leaders arrived and saw Xu Cheng, they all nodded at him. They had seen him wipe out the entire Sonora Family, so whether it was out of respect or fear, they acknowledged him.
“I heard from Saar that, Mr. Fang, you have something you want to discuss with us?”
“That’s right.” Xu Cheng said, “I will need your men to step out for a moment. The fewer people who know about this, the better.”
The four mafia leaders exchanged a look. With a wave of their hand, they had everyone else go out, close the door behind them, and guard outside. Everyone was fully armed and professional.
“Can you begin now?”
Xu Cheng spoke, “I heard Las Vegas was a city originally developed by Mexicans, and now, it has been able to generate an enormous amount of wealth every year. Aren’t you guys tempted?”
Saar said, “The water is very deep there. Since it’s legal, there’s naturally the government behind it, backing it. We are the mafia, Mr. Fang, are you thinking of having us go up against the government? That’s probably not the wisest choice.”
Xu Cheng directly asked them. “Besides playing with powder and arms here, how much do you guys make per year?”
Saar didn’t hide anything. “At least a billion dollars!”
Xu Cheng said, “Las Vegas, just legal profits alone reaches 40 billion, and that’s just what’s on paper, not talking about laundering and the other sh-t they do. Aren’t you guys tempted?”
One of the mafia family leaders, Mu Nie said, “Mr. Fang, let’s be more straightforward.”
Xu Cheng: “Here I have an idea that can make you guys rich. But, I need the members of your branches in the M Nation to cooperate and provide protection. Even the officials are dogs of capitalism. For money, you guys are actually not afraid to go against the government, right?”
Saar said, “That will still depend on how much profit is in it for us.”
“Tomorrow, just for one day of time, I will arrange everything. We will gamble one day and by the end, let’s see how much we can make,” Xu Cheng smiled mysteriously and said.
Xu Cheng decided to recruit these guys because he was not scared of them running away with the money at all. Whoever decided to betray the mafia and run, they would have thousands of ways to make that traitor’s life hell. All in all, they had the guys, and they abided by the rules!
