Hong Kong Tycoon: Starting from Delivering Dongfeng Express

Chapter 7 Chain Reaction
Huang Zhicheng pinched the cigarette and took a long puff. The ash fell onto the magazine in front of him, instantly igniting his anger. He threw the magazine to the ground and stomped on it several times.

Tonight he received a tip from an undercover agent that Ni Yongxiao was carrying goods worth one million, so he led his team to rush over and catch him red-handed. However, when they opened the box, they found that it contained several pornographic magazines.

It was obvious that he was fooled by Ni Yongxiao. He mobilized a large number of troops but gained nothing, which made him extremely annoyed!
An ice cream was suddenly handed to him: "Cool it down."

Huang Zhicheng glanced at his old partner Lu Qichang, licked his ice cream, and then looked worried. "I didn't expect Ni Kun's son to be so cunning. He's already dealt with Guohua and the black guy. With Han Chen's support, it seems the Ni family will be safe tonight."

Lu Qichang chuckled softly and said, "Isn't it a good thing that no one died? It would save them from having to work overtime to clean up the mess after they've killed each other."

Huang Zhicheng shook his head and said unwillingly: "This is the best opportunity to deal with the Ni family. Let Ni Yongxiao take the position so smoothly. In the future..."

Lu Qichang changed the subject: "Not necessarily, Ni Yongxiao has suffered a heavy loss this time!"

"Hmm?" Huang Zhicheng looked puzzled.

"I just received news that Ni Yongxiao lent Han Chen 1000 million."

"What?! Where did you get this information?"

Lu Qichang sneered, "Do you think you're the only one with an undercover agent? I've been in the Ni family for seven years!"

Then he sighed, "Han Chen is really shrewd. He knows that the Ni family is at its lowest point and cannot do without his help. He used the excuse that his wife was kidnapped to 'borrow' 1000 million from Ni Yongxiao. He's not afraid of retaliation from the Ni family in the future!"

"What? Han Chen's wife was kidnapped!" Huang Zhicheng's hand trembled, and the ice cream fell directly to the ground, his face full of shock and astonishment.

"What? You don't really think it's true, do you? It's obvious that Han Chen is taking advantage of the opportunity to gain benefits." Lu Qichang said with a smile.

Although it sounded reasonable, Huang Zhicheng was terrified. He instinctively knew that a kidnapping had definitely occurred. His first thought was that he and Mary had conspired to murder Ni Kun! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Mary was kidnapped at this time?
Huang Zhicheng hurriedly grabbed Lu Qichang's clothes and asked, "When did this happen? Who kidnapped her?"

Lu Qichang looked at Huang Zhicheng strangely: "Hey, why are you so nervous? Even if it's true, it's not your wife who was kidnapped!"

Of course Huang Zhicheng was nervous, not because he and Mary fell in love after sleeping together, but because if something really happened, not to mention the revenge from the Ni family, his future in the police force would be over!

Huang Zhicheng unconsciously shouted to cover up his inner panic: "We are police officers! How can we not care about a kidnapping?"

Lu Qichang looked at his overreacting partner and spread his hands: "Han Chen didn't call the police either, so how can we do anything about it?"

Then he patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "Ah Huang, I think you are too tense. Take a few days off first."

Watching Lu Qichang's leaving back, Huang Zhicheng broke out in sweat on his forehead and his shirt was wet. He took out another cigarette, but the lighter in his hand wouldn't light it no matter how many times he tried.

With a bang, the lighter fell to the ground and Huang Zhicheng gasped.

He must find Mary! Alive or dead!

……

In an abandoned factory, Mary was tied up and blindfolded in a small room, with several people taking turns guarding her.

"1200 million! 1200 million! We've made it this time!"

Ah Lang paced back and forth, his excitement evident. He then gave Ye Dongsheng a thumbs-up: "As expected of a veteran, you're so patient!" Ye Dongsheng had just hung up on Han Chen repeatedly, which had made Ah Lang beside him extremely anxious. He would be satisfied with even 500 million from this kidnapping, let alone million.

If it were him, he might have been able to bargain down the price with Han Chen, but he didn't expect that Ye Dongsheng hanging up the phone twice made Han Chen voluntarily increase the ransom by 200 million!
Ye Dongsheng chuckled and waved his hand: "Just a little bit of psychological game."

With the $100 million windfall already as a guarantee, Ye Dongsheng felt confident when he negotiated with Han Chen. He could just kill Han Chen if the talks fell through. It didn't matter to him, but Han Chen couldn't afford the risk. After all, he loved his wife.
Seeing the happy faces of several people, Ye Dongsheng reminded them: "It's not too late to be happy after you get the ransom."

Ah Lang agreed, "That's right. Ah Bao and I didn't do anything to kidnap the people this time. We feel uneasy. How about letting us go after we get the ransom?"

During the previous kidnapping, since Mary did not go to the beauty salon or play mahjong as usual, the ambush set by Alang and Abao was in vain. This time the kidnapping was entirely carried out by Ye Dongsheng and his two companions.

Ye Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Brother Lang, what are you talking about? We all have a clear division of labor and are just doing what we are supposed to do. As for the ransom, let's stick to the original plan and have Brother Hu take Xiao Fu and A Bao to collect it!"

Ah Hu also patted his chest and guaranteed: "Don't worry, Brother Wolf, I promise to bring the money back!"

Ah Lang looked at Ah Hu, then looked at Ye Dongsheng, and then nodded.

Although the words were not said clearly, everyone understood it tacitly.

The five-member gang, Ye Dongsheng and Xiaofu, and Ah Lang and Ah Bao, didn't really trust each other. They were united by Ah Hu, the middleman. So, for something as important as the ransom, only Ah Hu could lead the charge.

……

The next morning, Ah Lang was pulled to a secluded place by his younger brother Ah Bao. He muttered a few words under his breath, and his expression suddenly changed. He squeezed Ah Lang's arm tightly:

"Are you serious? This kind of thing is not something you can joke about!"

"Brother Wolf! How could I lie to you? I just saw the police press conference on TV when I went to buy cigarettes! And in the newspaper!"

Ah Lang hurriedly took the newspaper from Ah Bao's arms:

"Police have issued a wanted order, offering a 20 yuan reward for the masked thug!"

"Yesterday afternoon, a fierce gun battle broke out on Mount Paektu, resulting in numerous casualties. The police, under immense public pressure, have pledged to do their utmost to apprehend the three masked gangsters...

It is reported that three thugs wore monkey, tiger, and pig cartoon-style masks, drove a black Mazda, and armed with powerful weapons. They killed several people, including real estate developer Zhu Tao and a police inspector, and stole $100 million.

Ah Lang looked at the contents of the newspaper and unconsciously squeezed the newspaper, making a sound.

Monkey, tiger and pig cartoon masks. He and Abao also have a wolf and leopard mask!
Add to that the black Mazda, Mount Paektu, and time, there are so many coincidences. If he still can't guess who these three gangsters are, then he would be a fool!

Ah Bao said bitterly, "Brother Wolf, such a big thing happened, and they didn't even tell us. And that $100 million..."

Greed and anger surged in Ah Lang's heart. That was $100 million! How could those guys have kept it from him?
Seeing that Ah Lang didn't say anything, Ah Bao took another step closer and said with concern: "Brother Lang, I'm not greedy for the 100 million. I'm just afraid that after we get the ransom, they will want to keep it all for themselves. What will happen to us then..."

The flesh on the left side of Ah Lang's face trembled, he clenched the newspaper in his hand into a ball, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes!

When Abao saw this, a smile of success flashed in his eyes.

He still remembered the revenge for Ye Dongsheng's broken arm. Knowing his boss well, he knew that Brother Wolf had already made up his mind to kill. Those two guys were dead this time! And he would also get a good share of the $100 million!
