Underworld Chronicles: Qiao Si's Strategist, Xiao Ke, and Wang Weifan

Seeing that the bottle in his hand was broken and could not be lit, the young man swung the broken bottle neck and scribbled names haphazardly in the air.

With that one stroke, he injured Qiao Si, Li Zhengguang, and Yao Yifei.

"Damn it, they've gone too far!" The fearless Li Zhengguang charged forward and tackled the young man to the ground.

Qiao Si and Yao Yifei rushed over and pinned down the young man's arms and legs. The young man couldn't move his hands and feet, so he tried to fight back by hitting his head and biting his mouth.

It took Qiao Si and his two companions a lot of effort to finally subdue the young man, and he even spat several mouthfuls of phlegm on their faces.

"Damn it, I'll kill you!" Li Zhengguang snatched the broken bottle from the young man's hand and was about to stab him in the neck.

"Zhengguang, wait a minute, let Xiaoke check if he recognizes it first, so we don't make a mistake," Qiao Si interrupted.

Then, Qiao Si, Li Zhengguang, and Yao Yifei forced the young man into the casino.

At this moment, Xiao Ke, Wang Zhi, Zhang Guangyue, and Wei Qinggang were all in the office. Seeing Qiao Si and the others enter, Xiao Ke quickly stood up and said, "Oh, Fourth Brother is here! Come, sit down, sit down!"

Qiao Si entered first, followed by Li Zhengguang and Yao Yifei escorting the young man in.

"Holy crap, how did it get to be this slut?" Zhang Guangyue exclaimed in surprise.

"Xiao Ke, do you know this guy? We were just about to come in when he led a few people with bottles of alcohol, saying they were going to burn down your casino," Qiao Si said, pointing at the young man.

"Isn't this the kid who caused trouble a while ago? You're still not done, are you?" Xiao Ke said.

That's right, this young man is none other than the arrogant Ma Long who was taught a lesson by Xiao Ke in the previous stage.

"Fuck you, I'll kill you!" Wang Zhi, Zhang Guangyue, and Wei Qinggang were furious when they heard that Ma Long wanted to burn down their casino, and they rushed towards Ma Long.

Klopp's three musketeers are determined to kill Malone today: one wants to kick him in the groin, one wants to kick him in the anus, and one wants to cut off his fingers.

Fourth Brother, sit down. Take him to the dark room and cut off his tendons and ligaments. Let's see if he dares to act arrogantly again. Xiao Ke ordered.

After hearing Xiao Ke's instructions, Wang Zhi, Zhang Guangyue, and Wei Qinggang dragged Ma Long up and prepared to take him to their dark room for execution.

At this moment, Qiao Si suddenly felt a pang of pity. From the exchange just now, Qiao Si had seen that Ma Long was exceptionally skilled and incredibly brave. If this man could be used by him in the future, he would definitely become a great general like Li Zhengguang. It would be such a waste to cripple him.

"Hey, Xiao Ke, wait a minute!" Qiao Si called out.

Startled by Qiao Si's shout, Wang Zhi, Zhang Guangyue, and Wei Qinggang, who were walking out, stopped in their tracks.

"Can we spare him?" Qiao Si pleaded.

"Fourth Brother, this isn't the first or second time he's come to cause trouble. If we let him off the hook, he'll just come back again," Xiao Ke said.

"Give this man to me, and I guarantee he won't cause any more trouble. I think this kid has potential," Qiao Si pleaded.

Wang Zhi, Zhang Guangyue, and Wei Qinggang all looked at Xiao Ke, waiting for him to speak.

Xiao Ke figured that as long as he could keep this guy from causing trouble, he'd give Qiao Si some face.

"Fourth Brother, since you've spoken, I'll give you face and let him go," Xiao Ke instructed his three musketeers.

At this moment, Qiao Si walked up to Ma Long and said, "Brother, I'm giving you two choices. One is to follow me from now on. The other is to be dragged away now and have your tendons severed, leaving you crippled forever. The choice is yours."

Although Ma Long was an unruly fellow, he wasn't stupid. He could see how ruthless Qiao Si and his gang were. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. Rather than being crippled, he'd rather follow Qiao Si.

"Big brother, I'll follow you from now on." Ma Long softened.

"Alright, Yifei, take this brother to the hospital for a bandage. I'll cover all the expenses. Xiao Ke and I are talking about something here. We'll have a drink together when I get back," Qiao Si instructed.

After the two older brothers spoke up, Wang Zhi and the others, though angry, released Ma Long.

Yao Yifei led Ma Long out of the casino and took him and his gang to the hospital.

After Ma Long left, Xiao Ke personally brewed tea and poured it for Qiao Si and Li Zhengguang. "Brother Si, have some tea. Did you call me here today for something?"

Xiao Ke, although we've only drunk together once, I can tell you're quick-witted and sharp-minded. I really have something to ask of you today.

Fourth Brother, don't be shy. I told you when we were drinking that if there's anything I can do to help you, just ask.

"Alright, then I'll get straight to the point. We've been working on demolitions for a long time, but we haven't made much money. Now we want to start our own business. You're an expert in running a company, so could you help us with that?" Qiao Si asked, taking a sip of tea.

"Damn, I thought it was something serious. No problem, I know all about this. Cousin, go get 20,000 yuan." Xiao Ke ordered.

Wang Zhi took out 20,000 yuan from the safe and gave it to Xiao Ke. Xiao Ke placed the 20,000 yuan directly on Qiao Si's table and said...

Fourth Brother, leave the company to me. You can take this money first; starting a company inevitably involves expenses.

"Xiao Ke, what are you doing? You've already done more than enough by offering to help. I can't take this money." Qiao Si pushed the money back to Xiao Ke and said.

Fourth Brother, consider this a loan. You can pay me back when you have it. Since we're brothers, don't be so polite. Xiao Ke pushed the money back.

"Alright, I won't bother with the pleasantries. From now on, just watch what I do, brother. Zheng Guang, put it away," Qiao Si said.

Li Zhengguang was also taken aback by Xiao Ke's actions. He hadn't expected Xiao Ke to be so straightforward. After hearing Qiao Si's instructions, he put away the two thick stacks of money.

"Alright, brother, we'll head back now and won't disturb your business any longer," Qiao Si said, standing up.

Fourth Brother, go back and wait for news. This is simple; I guarantee I'll get it done for you. Xiao Ke also stood up.

Qiao Si patted Xiao Ke on the shoulder. "Brother, that's all. We'll get this over with." With that, Qiao Si led Li Zhengguang out of the casino.

Li Zhengguang had originally planned to gamble a couple of times before he arrived, but he was completely stunned by Xiao Ke's actions and forgot about playing a few rounds. He then left with Qiao Si.

After seeing Qiao Si and the others leave, Zhang Guangyue became unwilling again. "Brother, you've already given them face by helping them, and you even gave them money. Why should we?"

Guangyue, you don't understand, do you? Have you ever heard what Du Yuesheng, the Shanghai gangster tycoon, said: "I don't do things that add flowers to brocade, I only do things that provide charcoal in the snow"? Just you wait and see, this Qiao Si will definitely succeed in the future.

"Damn it, I just don't believe it." Zhang Guangyue remained unconvinced.

Next, with Xiao Ke's help, will Qiao Si be able to establish his own company? Stay tuned for the next episode.
