Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 95: Chief Resident! Medal of the King

Suo Kun was all smiles and friendly.

As the saying goes: When you are out, you have to earn your own face!

With a decisive victory, Chen Jie won the respect of Suo Kun, the owner of the Laojie Boxing Stadium in Kokang.

"Brother 'War King', I should be the one thanking you tonight. You have helped me a lot!"

Suo Kun laughed, waved his hand at Chen Jie, and said sincerely:

"If it weren't for your intervention tonight, the remaining six boxing matches would have been cancelled. The loss would be huge!"

"The most important thing is that the Japanese started to defend the ring, but no one was found to challenge them. This has a great impact on the status of our Kokang Lao Cai boxing stadium in Southeast Asia."

One more friend, one more road!

This time, a boxing match in the underground boxing ring earned Chen Jie 25800 points of [Martial Arts Merit]!
Although 5800 points are extra rewards, the reward for this boxing match is as high as points.

That is,

If you want to obtain [Martial Arts Merit Points] more efficiently, participating in underground boxing betting at the Kokang Old Street Boxing Arena in the future is definitely a shortcut.

Although Chen Jie never thought of becoming an underground boxer.

but,

In order to gain more [Martial Arts Merit Points], it is inevitable to engage in underground boxing gambling.

not to mention,
After defeating Hitoshi Hitoshi Benjiro, Chen Jie is now the "King" of the Laojie Boxing Ring!
Someone will definitely challenge him, and he will have many opportunities to fight in underground boxing matches.

at this time,

Inside the boxing ring, normal boxing order was restored.

Yamamoto Benjiro's "defense" was broken by Chen Jie, which was equivalent to Chen Jie recovering the losses for the Laojie Boxing Arena.

Therefore,
Suo Kun personally came to the VIP box to express his gratitude.

Chen Jie smiled and said to Suo Kun:
"General Suo Kun, the Japanese are clearly well prepared. You should have heard about this a long time ago, right?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you specially invited the 'Far East Tiger' Tugrev to deal with the Japanese, right?"

"However, what you didn't expect is that the Japanese people actually bribed Tugrev's agent."

"General, I have something to say but I don't know if I should say it. Your Kokang Laojie boxing arena is known as one of the three largest underground boxing arenas in Southeast Asia, Myanmar and Yunnan."

"But, except for Tugrev, the boxers you invited to your ring are not that strong!"

Upon hearing this, Suo Kun nodded immediately.

He took a deep breath, smiled bitterly and said:

"Brother 'War King', our Old Street Boxing Arena naturally hopes to invite more powerful masters."

"But the really talented boxers all go to fight professionally!"

"No matter how much money you pay, it's hard to invite the best professional boxers. Underground boxing is too dangerous!"

"We put a lot of effort into inviting Tugrev this time."

"Originally, we were thinking of letting Hitoshima Benjiro become the resident chief boxer of the Laojie Boxing Stadium, and let him become the only 'second-level champion'!"

"But we never expected that this bastard would suddenly start 'defending the ring' tonight, catching us off guard."

Sokun once found many Thai boxing champion-level masters in southern Thailand, Indonesia, South Vietnam and other places.

Any underground boxing ring must have a resident chief master to maintain order and prevent someone from sweeping in and destroying the place.

Even if the boxing ring costs a lot, they hope to find a few top masters to stay there and become the trump cards.

unfortunately,

The 'Thai Boxing King'-level masters he looked for were wary of the extremely dangerous 'underground boxing gambling'.

Unless they are extremely short of money, or are mentally ill and bloodthirsty.

Otherwise, who would be willing to fight in underground boxing matches?

In addition, underground boxing matches and professional boxing matches are completely different events, although the basics of boxing training are similar.

but,

Any professional boxer who wants to adapt to underground boxing must train hard for a long time.

More importantly, once you adapt to the fighting style and rhythm of underground gambling boxing, it will take more time to adjust if you want to reverse this deadly fighting style.

Therefore,
Suo Kun searched for a long time in Southeast Asia, but failed to find a resident master who satisfied his needs.

These boxers at the Laojie boxing ring in Kokang, although fighting in the octagonal cage, are very brutal and fierce, making people's adrenaline soar.

But we have to admit that once we compete with the top international players, the gap is very obvious.

Take Hitoshi Yamamoto Jijiro for example, he performed very well in the Laojie boxing ring in Kokang and was invincible.

but,

He can only be the king in the Lao Cai boxing stadium in Kokang, and he absolutely dares not to be arrogant in Chiang Mai in southern Thailand or Bangkok in southern Thailand.

Once he became famous in Chiang Mai and Bangkok in southern Thailand, top "Thai boxing champion" level masters would soon be invited to the boxing ring to challenge Yamamoto Jiro.

Although Yamamoto Jiro is very strong, he will have no chance of winning against the top 'Thai Boxing King' master.

This is also the main reason why Yamamoto Benro chose the Laojie Boxing Stadium in Kokang, Myanmar and Yunnan as his destination for his battle.

This time, Suokun invited the "Far East Tiger" Tugelev to the Laojie Boxing Stadium in Kokang.

The purpose is to let Tuglev compete with Yamamoto Benro.

unfortunately,

At the most important moment, Tugrev actually gave up the challenge, which made Suokun very uncomfortable.

in fact,

Why is it so difficult to invite top boxers to the Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium?

One very important reason is that it is too chaotic here.

Any top master with a little fame is worried that they will be kidnapped after coming here.

At that time, not only will you not be able to make any money, but you will have to spend a large sum of money to redeem yourself.

Therefore,
If you don't have a strong force to support you, it takes a lot of courage to come here and fight.

"Call me Chen Jie! 'War King' is just my nickname!"

Chen Jie nodded to Suo Kun and said, "I haven't been practicing boxing for a long time, but I can be considered a professional boxer!"

"If it weren't for the Japanese being so arrogant, I wouldn't have planned to take action."

"Underground boxing gambling is indeed too dangerous. It does more harm than good to the life planning of professional boxers!"

He turned around and nodded to Lao Yu and the other two, signaling everyone to leave.

Although order was restored in the next few boxing matches, Chen Jie was no longer interested in watching.

He couldn't wait to go back and try to move the "fire" over there.

"Alright! General Suo Kun, it's getting late and we have to go back. Let's stop here tonight."

"Master Hao, let's talk again when we have a chance. As for the jade you mentioned, I will call you after I return home. I will go to Pingzhou to find you in a few days."

After the boxing match and such a long time, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

It takes more than an hour to drive back to the village.

Perhaps for many young people, ten o'clock in the evening is just the beginning of the night owl life.

but,

Chen Jie is not a night owl. He has a very regular schedule and doesn't like staying up late.

"Wait a minute! Brother Zhan Wang, I have something to discuss with you--!"

Seeing Chen Jie telling Lao Yu and others to leave, Suo Kun quickly called him back.

"What's wrong?" Chen Jie frowned slightly and asked calmly.

He looked up outside the box door and saw several bodyguards standing there with guns.

Chen Jie did not seem panicked, but stood sideways, keeping the best distance from Suo Kun.

If the bodyguards outside the door made any unusual movements, Chen Jie would definitely be able to subdue Suo Kun in the shortest possible time.

Chen Jie has always been very cautious in doing things.

There was no way he would let down his guard just because of Suo Kun's friendly attitude.

"Don't be nervous! Haha - I mean no harm!"

"This is the one million US dollar bounty that Hao Shao mentioned to me just now. It also includes the profit dividends from the boxing match just now, a total of one million and a half US dollars."

"Take it. It will be more convenient to use this money in Southeast Asia. If you want to transfer it to your country, it will be a bit troublesome."

As he spoke, Suo Kun took out a bank card from his pocket, handed it to Chen Jie and said:

"There is a password on it. You can withdraw cash at any time in Southeast Asia, Myanmar and Yunnan."

Chen Jie frowned slightly and did not take the bank card from the other party.

He turned to look at Lao Yu and gave an order:

"Lao Yu, take it. You will be responsible for managing the funds in Southeast Asia from now on."

"Row!"

Old Yu nodded without saying anything nonsense or being polite to Chen Jie.

He took the bank card from Suo Kun and followed Chen Jie silently.

From the moment Chen Jie shot Yamamoto Benro to death, Lao Yu has been willing to follow Chen Jie and work for him.

He would not ask any more questions about what Chen Jie told him to do.

After giving the card to Yu Changan, Suo Kun took out another medal and said:

"There is one more thing. We at Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium would like to invite you to become a 'resident boxer'!"

"This is the 'King's Medal' of our Laojie Boxing Arena! As long as you agree, you will be a member of our Kokang Laojie Boxing Arena and also one of the shareholders of the Kokang Laojie Boxing Arena!"

"Ten percent of the shares plus the 'King's Medal' can earn you double the prize money for the boxing match!"

"But let me make it clear in advance that our Laojie Boxing Arena can only allow the emergence of a 'Second Level Champion' at the highest level, and 'Defending the Champion' is not allowed!"

"Once you become the 'Second Level Champion', you need to lose a fight to end your winning streak, or give up a fight yourself." Originally, before this, General Suokun planned to give all of this to Hitoshi Yamamoto Jiro.

However, he never expected that the Japanese people looked down on him at all and actually started to "defend the title" at all costs.

The purpose of the Japanese islanders is very simple, they want to plant a flag in Laogai, Kokang.

Even the 'Inagawa-kai' in Japan wanted to directly take over the Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium. Their appetite was too big, they didn't just want 10%, they wanted it all.

This is also the important reason why Suo Kun offered a reward of one million US dollars to find someone to challenge the Japanese.

Once Yamamoto Jiro successfully "defends the title", Suokun will not be able to find anyone to challenge him.

Then, all the prize money from the boxing match, including tickets and betting funds, will be taken away by the Japanese.

But the compensation money needs to be paid by Suo Kun.

As a result, the Kokang Laojie Boxing Arena is basically finished.

but,

When Chen Jie stepped onto the ring, he defeated Rijima Renshan Benjiro with great force.

Suo Kun realized that it would be great if Chen Jie could become the 'resident boxer' of the Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium.

To know,
The core of any underground boxing ring is gambling.

Therefore, a boxing match must have a "resident chief master" who can control the situation and prevent others from "defending the ring" and ruining the match.

Just like what happened today, the main reason is that the Japanese people calculated that there was no master who could "stabilize the situation" in the Laojie boxing arena in Kokang.

If there are top masters like 'Far East Tiger' Tugrev and 'War King' Chen Jie in the boxing ring, anyone who wants to start 'defending the ring' in the boxing ring must consider whether his life is strong enough!

and,

The strength of the 'resident boxer' is related to the foundation of the boxing ring.

Suo Kun gave 10% of the shares in order to bind Chen Jie.

Of course, this share only has the right to dividends, not the right to management.

General Suokun not only gave 1.5 million US dollars, but also took out 10% of the shares of the "Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium".

Liang Jinhao, who was standing next to him, was startled when he heard this.

Ten percent of the shares is not a small amount of money.

This means that Chen Jie can earn millions or even tens of millions every month.

call--!
Liang Jinhao couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Comparing yourself with others will really make you angry to death!
He worked hard in Southeast Asia, doing business, opening restaurants, and mining jade.

I only make tens of millions every year, and doing business in Southeast Asia is quite risky.

but,

Chen Jie immediately obtained 10% of the shares of 'Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium'.

I’m so envious!
"Give me 10% of the ring's shares? Just to make me a resident boxer?"

Chen Jie was slightly stunned, and looked at the 'King's Medal' that Suo Kun gave him with some surprise.

but,

He did not accept the 'Medal of King' given to him by the other party, but frowned slightly.

He deserved the 1.5 million U.S. dollars, which was what he won from the boxing match.

but,

This 10% stake in the Kokang Laojie Boxing Arena is a bit hot.

General Suo Kun nodded and said with a smile:
"Take it, Brother Chen Jie! The forces in Kokang, Southeast Asia, more or less own some shares in our boxing ring!"

"This portion of your shares is just a partnership. It won't cause you any trouble, and it won't impose any restrictions on you!"

"Most importantly, our cooperation is a verbal agreement, and there is no need to sign any contract!"

"In Southeast Asia, all contracts are useless. What matters is one's personal reputation."

"As long as I am alive, my verbal agreement with you will be valid. Of course, if something happens to me, the agreement will automatically become invalid."

"If you are not satisfied, you can cancel the agreement between us at any time, how about that?"

Compared with the US$1.5 million boxing match prize money and bounty, Suo Kun felt that giving Chen Jie the 10% share of the boxing ring was more cost-effective.

Because Southeast Asian boxing arenas have one most obvious characteristic.

As long as the resident boxers in the boxing ring are strong enough, the fame of the boxing ring will grow.

Only those masters from other boxing rings would come to the Kokang Laojie Boxing Ring for boxing matches.

This is a virtuous cycle. As long as more and more masters come here, there will naturally be more and more wealthy people coming to the Laojie boxing arena to bet on boxing.

The amount of money bet will also skyrocket!
The core of underground boxing matches is gambling. The stronger the boxer, the more attractive he is.

Before this, Suo Kun originally wanted to make Yamamoto Benjiro the 'resident chief'!
However, Yamamoto Jiro's identity is too complicated, and he has the "Hijima Inagawa Association" behind him.

Therefore,
Suokun invited the 'Far East Tiger' Tugelev to see if he could make Tugelev the 'resident chief'.

unfortunately,

Tugrev gave up challenging the Japanese islanders, which made Sokun very disappointed.

The appearance of Chen Jie was an unexpected surprise for Suo Kun.

As long as Chen Jie becomes the resident chief of the Kokang Laojie Boxing Stadium, he won't have to worry about other masters coming to mess things up.

"Forget it! I have no interest in becoming the resident boxer at the Old Street Boxing Stadium!"

"General Suo Kun, I appreciate your kindness, but I cannot accept this share without merit!"

Chen Jie shook his head and flatly refused the other party's cooperation.

Not to mention the 10% stake, even if he was given 100 million, he would not agree easily.

He understood one thing very early on: if you gain something, you must give something!
There is absolutely no free lunch in this world.

It's not so easy to get this share.

Once you get this 10% stake, no one can predict how much you will have to pay.

The most important thing is that Chen Jie is not short of money now!

In a place like Southeast Asia, how could it be so easy to get money from Suo Kun?

in fact,

As Suo Kun was giving him both money and shares, Chen Jie was naturally very clear about what he was thinking.

If you want to use a little bit of the boxing ring's shares to bind yourself, then you are underestimating yourself.

Chen Jie has so many "wild ginseng" and "jade and jadeite" in his hands that he no longer cares about his shares in the underground boxing ring.

To know,
As long as he wanted more money, he could just sell his jade inventory and have billions of dollars.

Seeing that Chen Jie did not accept the "King's Medal", it meant that he did not want to become a resident boxer.

General Suo Kun quickly said: "Brother Chen Jie, this is the sincerity of our Laojie Boxing Arena!"

"Don't worry, we won't impose any restrictions on you. What martial artists need most is freedom. I understand that!"

“So, we never thought about restricting any fighter.”

The meaning of Suo Kun's words was very clear, and he was indeed sincere.

of course,

It is very important for both parties to abide by the verbal agreement, and it must be beneficial to both parties.

In other words, if Chen Jie wants to get this money, he must ensure that his peak combat power is strong enough.

Unless you lose to your opponent intentionally as part of a plan, you must never lose to anyone in the octagonal cage!

"Haha! General Suo Kun, I appreciate your kindness!"

Chen Jie smiled when he heard this, looked at Suo Kun intriguingly and said:

"Forget about the shares in the boxing ring. Fighting in underground boxing matches is just a way to spice up my life!"

"I never thought of making a living by gambling in underground boxing!"

"But I can promise you that as long as the Old Street Boxing Stadium holds a boxing match, you can find Lao Yu in advance and ask him to call me, and I will definitely be there!"

"That's enough for today. I'm tired!"

After hearing what Chen Jie said, Suo Kun nodded slightly.

He didn't know Chen Jie's background, but he knew Liang Jinhao.

Since Chen Jie is able to be with Liang Jinhao, I think he must have a good background and may even have his own jade mine.

What's more, Chen Jie rejected the 10% stake in Kokang Laojie Boxing Arena without hesitation. He is definitely not someone who is short of money.

And judging from Chen Jie's appearance, he is definitely not the kind of person who makes a living by underground boxing gambling.

General Suokun shook his head helplessly and smiled, admitting that he had indeed considered things inappropriately.

It is impossible to bind the owner of a jade mine with a small amount of shares.

Suo Kun is also a very decisive person. Since there is no way to tie Chen Jie to the Laojie Boxing Stadium, there is no harm in making friends.

He smiled and said:

"Okay! Since Brother Chen Jie said so, I won't force it!"

"Add me your contact information first. If there are any important boxing matches held at the Old Street Boxing Stadium in the future, I will send you a message."

"I am a very hospitable person. Even if you have nothing to do, you can come to the old street to find me. I will take you to understand the local customs and practices here."

"Let me tell you, although Kokang is a remote place, there are many interesting things here. There are beauties from all over the world and the rarest delicacies from the mountains and the sea—!"

Chen Jie listened to Suo Kun's words and said with a smile:
"Okay! If you want to find me, just look for Lao Yu. I'll come over when I'm free!"

"Master Hao, General Suo Kun, stop here for today. I will come to you next time for dinner, chat, and tea!"

I saw that General Suo Kun and Liang Jinhao had no intention of leaving the box.

Chen Jie knew that they must have something to discuss.

Therefore,
He said hello to Suo Kun and Liang Jinhao, and signaled Yu Changan and the other two to leave with him -!
