Chapter 13: City East!
Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Li glanced over and the information about the two of them came to his mind.
The bald man with a hammer was Pang Kui, who was responsible for the "restaurants" and "gambling stalls" of the Sirius Gang.
The sexy lady in the dress was "Xu Ya," who was running the "brothel" in Honghua Street.
They were neither elders nor officers. However, they were responsible for the businesses of the gang, so they had command over a large number of men and were quite superior. Besides, they were both Martial Artists of peak-stage elementary level.
"Chief, what's wrong? What do these people want? Are they planning on something bad? Chief, you must be careful." Pang Kui came up quickly. He was almost two meters tall and brawny. Although he was only at the peak stage of the elementary level, he was extremely strong in fighting. He was kind of a talented person.
"Pang Kui, that's bullshit. The Scorpion Gang has yielded to Chief Jiang Li. From now on, there won't be the Scorpion Gang anymore, but Scorpion Hall," Wu Zong said.
"That's right." Liu Feiyu also nodded.
"Chief Jiang is fierce and powerful. We all volunteered to surrender," Guo Yong yelled.
"Um…" Pang Kui glanced at Jiang Li in shock. He then looked at Wu Zong and the others. They didn't seem to be lying. Fierce? Powerful? Are you kidding me? Jiang Li's vital energy is only at the mid-stage of the elementary level. How can you see that he's strong? You're lying.
"Chief, can you tell me what's going on?" Xu Ya walked to Jiang Li and gave him a seductive smile. She was mature, sexy and extraordinarily sultry. She gently put her fair hands on Jiang Li's shoulders and whispered in his ear, showing off the charm of a mature woman.
"Pang Kui, Xu Ya, you're just in time." Jiang Li glanced at Xu Ya expressionlessly and said, "Liu Yanbing, the leader of the Scorpion Gang, Lu Daoke, the leader of the Axe Gang, and Hua Yanji, the leader of the Red Flame Gang, all died in my hands."
"The Scorpion Gang has become the 'Scorpion Hall' under the Scorpion Gang. Take our members and come with me to the Axe Gang and Red Flame Gang. We're going to take control of their territories as well."
"Chief, you…" Xu Ya opened her mouth wide and couldn't believe what she heard. "Are you serious?"
"Sure."
Wu Zong immediately replied, "The Scorpion Gang has surrendered. This is the proof."
"Well…" Xu Ya and Pang Kui were dumbfounded and they stared at Jiang Li with an astonished look. They had never thought such an unbelievable thing would happen.
The thing was, they knew what Jiang Li was capable of. He had practiced Martial Arts for a long time, but was still at the early stage of the elementary level. They thought that Jiang Li would be killed by Li Hualong.
In the end, Jiang Li turned the tides. The three elders and six officers were all dead and he even eliminated the leaders of three gangs in one night. It was a miracle.
"That's incredible," Xu Ya exclaimed.
"Brother Huahong's son isn't a bastard." Pang Kui mumbled, "I was wrong about him."
…
At that moment in an alley in Honghua Street, a few skinny men were hiding in the shadows, watching everything that was happening at the Sirius Gang.
"The leader of the Sirius Gang, 'Jiang Li,' killed three leaders and is planning to take over the territories of the three gangs. We must report this."
"Hm."
"A second-rate gang isn't qualified to manage four streets."
Then they left quietly.
"Master." Wang Gang came to Jiang Li. "A few people were there watching you just then."
"Oh." Jiang Li looked over to the place where Wang Gang pointed at, but nobody was there. "Looks like they're gone."
"Yes." Wang Gang nodded.
Who would it be? Jiang Li wondered.
…
In Yongan City there were many second-rate gangs. They always fought with one another because of disputes of interest. Old gangs were exterminated, while new ones were established. This was a normal thing here.
In fact, other than the "City Lord Mansion," there were four truly powerful gangs that ruled Yongan City. They managed City West, City South, City East and City North respectively.
Honghua Street belonged to City East. There were thirteen streets that formed the shape of a spider web in City East, so there were thirteen second-rate gangs.
One of the four gangs that ruled City East was the "Quicksand Gang." The Quicksand Gang had four halls. The Hall Master of each of them was very strong and couldn't be underestimated.
The Sirius Gang and any other gangs in City East had to pay the "Quicksand Gang" every month. Otherwise, they would be eliminated.
Besides, none of the small gangs could interfere with businesses like "herbs," "pills," and "weapons." They could only run other businesses, including "restaurants," "gambling stalls" and "brothels." Any gang that violated the rules would be dealt with.
"Let's go." Jiang Li said as he waved.
"Yes, Chief." Wu Zong led everyone of Scorpion Hall to follow Jiang Li and walked towards Axe Street, where the Axe Gang was located. Pang Kui and Xu Ya looked at each other and also kept up immediately.
Lu Daoke and Hua Yanji had died, so the Axe Gang and Red Flame Gang couldn't resist Jiang Li's meches, let alone Wang Gang who had already reached mid-stage level one. So, when the diehard fans of Lu Daoke and Hua Yanji had their limbs broken, everyone of the Axe Gang and Red Flame Gang surrendered and they became the Axe Hall and Red Flame Hall of the Sirius Gang.
Things were going so smooth that Jiang Li found it unbelievable.
In the evening, in the main hall of the Red Flame Hall.
"Nice, nice."
Jiang Li cracked a beaming smile and felt thrilled. He looked at the large wooden boxes in front of him, which contained tons of herbs, silver and pills.
Jiang Li didn't count all of them, but he got a lot. He could probably get a hundred energy points with just the herbs. After converting them all to energy points, he could build a large number of meches. By then, Jiang Li wouldn't be scared even when the Quicksand Gang showed up.
Then Jiang Li would be truly settled in Yongan City.
"Congratulations for subduing the Red Flame Gang and Axe Gang, and taking over the three streets in City East. We'll be able to make at least a thousand taels of silver every month from now on," Wu Zong said immediately.
"Brown-noser." The new Hall Master of Red Flame Hall, Zhuo Helin, glared at Wu Zong and crossed his arms. He looked extremely arrogant and didn't want anything to do with Wu Zong. "How would a thousand taels of silver be enough for our fierce, handsome and elegant Chief? I think we'll certainly reach a new height under your lead. Our businesses will be greater and we'll earn over ten thousand a month."
"Hahaha…" Wu Zong sneered. "Zhuo Helin, you're the real brown-noser here."
"Chief, here are the detailed records of the businesses managed by Axe Hall. Would you like to read them?" The Hall Master of Axe Hall, Liu He, took out a thick ledger and brought it to Jiang Li.
"Hm." Jiang Li nodded and started reading.
