Return of the King, Chapter 741: 730: Probing

Chapter 741: Chapter 730: Probing

“Since he plans an ambush on you, naturally, we will ambush him,” Qingluan said, “Due to certain things, I can’t personally help you deal with the Ghost King. Actually, once you make it onto the War God List, you’ll find that there are many restrictions. It’s dictated that we must stay above the worldly concerns. Of course, if it’s just so insignificant people, our intervention is no big deal. But Wang Billion is soone whose influence can destabilize an entire region. So, I can’t move against him. However, when it cos to Qingluan, I can act because that’s a personal vendetta.”

“Then you’ll join

when the ti cos?” Song Yun asked.

“Mhm, naturally,” Qingluan responded with a smile and a nod.

After discussing the details with Qingluan for a while, Song Yun left the inn and headed to the city center to find Qiang Li at Su He.

Su He is a bar, and a national chain, at that. The operator here in wz is associated with the Wen Comrce Association, and one of the twenty people on Song Yun’s hit list happens to be there.

The target Song Yun had to eliminate was Wang Billion’s third son, nad Wang Yangguang, around the sa age as Wang Kai but with a far worse character. Essentially, he had done everything a villain could do—engaged in gambling, drugs, even murder, and arson, and encroaching on others’ territories; hence, Song Yun had put him on the elimination list. Such a nace was nothing but a disaster to the country and the people.

Qiang Li was already seated, the dim lights of the bar shifting constantly, making it appear more luxurious than Yellow Springs, but it felt sowhat lacking. A bar’s external appearance is important, yet its culture is indispensable.

Given that the master was involved in all sorts of debauchery, the bar naturally catered to those vices. Though now, in the socialist era, these transactions happened in secret. From the mont Song Yun entered the bar, several people approached him, offering sothing ‘exciting,’ but he rejected them all.

“Xiao Bao, over here,” Qiang Li, seated at a table for two, called out to Song Yun.

Song Yun walked over rather awkwardly.

“Relax, a bar is only fun when you let loose,” said Qiang Li, who seed to be a regular here. The table already had several bottles of beer, two emptied, and an assortnt of snacks.

“Brother Qiang, don’t you need to eat sothing?” Song Yun asked.

“We’ll go out to eat later. There’s not many people right now, I just ca early to secure us a spot,” Qiang Li said, standing up and turning to a nearby server, “Sa as usual, this spot is mine.”

“Got it,” the server, who seed quite familiar with Qiang Li, nodded in acknowledgent.

“Let’s go, get sothing to eat,” said Qiang Li, leading Song Yun back out of the bar.

“Your first ti in a bar, huh?” Qiang Li said, draping an arm over Song Yun’s shoulder with a grin.

“Yeah, my first,” Song Yun nodded.

“After we eat, it’ll be your second ti. This kind of place is for letting off steam. Don’t be so reserved. Play when you should. Loosen up! Otherwise, there’s no fun in it,” Qiang Li said, leading Song Yun to a nearby restaurant, where they ordered a few dishes and started eating and drinking.

By the ti they finished eating and drinking, more than an hour had passed, and naturally, Song Yun picked up the tab. No matter where you are, the newcor always has to respect the veteran. Though Qiang Li had offered to treat him, Song Yun knew that was just a casual offer.

Song Yun’s behavior greatly satisfied Qiang Li. Although the al only cost a little over a hundred yuan, Song Yun’s manner was impeccable. This made Qiang Li like him even more, firmly deciding to bring Song Yun back to the bar to really enjoy themselves.

It was necessary to ntion the way Wang Billion won people’s hearts. He had stipulated that any employee of his enterprises would receive a 50% discount when patronizing his venues! A case of Lepsi, normally priced over three hundred, would cost just over one hundred for Wang Billion’s employees—a deal comparable to buying it outside!

Wang Billion’s venues were nearly full every night, largely due to his employees’ patronage, which was one of his shrewdest moves. Consider this: your employees generate wealth for you, you pay them with that sa money, and then they spend it at your venues. Even though they get a discount, the profit margins remain high, and the money ends up in your pocket again!

This cycle kept Wang Billion’s coffers brimming. anwhile, the employees, unwittingly being sold out, were grateful to Wang Billion.

Song Yun silently took note of Wang Billion’s business model. Wealth accumulation required effort, and though Wang Billion’s success was tied to his background, his astute mind played a part too.

When they returned to the bar, it was already past eight in the evening. According to Sunan’s ti, bars were just starting to get busy, but over here in wz, the place was nearly packed.

Qiang Li led Song Yun back to their previous spot. Despite every surrounding seat being taken, their earlier place was sohow still vacant.

“See that? That’s the privilege of being a full-ti employee! Once you beco one of Wang Billion’s staff, you’ll know how good your benefits are!” Qiang Li, with a proud gesture, sat down, popped open a beer bottle, and handed it to Song Yun, pushing a cup his way as well.

“Co on, let’s drink. Later, the girls will show up, and tonight, I, your Brother Qiang, will teach you the survival rules of the bar,” Qiang Li declared proudly.

Song Yun appeared reserved and slightly confused.

As he drank with Qiang Li, Song Yun scanned the surroundings, and not far away, he spotted two familiar figures—Xie zi was one of them.

Dressing like hoodlums, they sat in a booth, drinking and playing gas with several won, apparently in charge of that area at this ti.

Song Yun didn’t interfere with them, and continued drinking on his own.

About half an hour later, around nine, the bar suddenly filled up with people.

Roughly fifty won stread in, varying in height and figure, but overall, the quality was quite high—taking off their clothes for an online photo shoot could certainly attract a large fanbase.

These won quickly integrated into each area, and three very attractive ones approached Song Yun’s table.

“Yo, Brother Qiang, you’re here tonight too!” One woman with red hair, wearing a black tank top and skirt, wrapped an arm around Qiang Li’s shoulder provocatively.

Wearing only a tank top in just-over-ten-degree weather suggested won really did have so natural resistance to cold.

“Brought a colleague over for a look,” Qiang Li pointed to Song Yun, saying, “Chunchun, my colleague here is a newbie, so please take good care of him!”

“Of course, Brother Qiang’s colleague is our colleague,” said Chunchun, the red-haired woman, signaling to the other won with her eyes before saying, “Qiuyue, Qiuxiang, take good care of our little brother.”

“Sure!” Qiuyue and Qiuxiang, both sat next to Song Yun, each draped an arm over his shoulders and started to toast him.
