Chapter 518: Chapter 503: At Most One Hundred Million

Ye Chen’s almost tongue-twisting words had the other party’s simple minds nearly unable to keep up! But, luckily, they could just about grasp what Ye Chen was saying. After discussing amongst themselves for a long while, the lead man said, "We need to consult our superiors!"

"No problem, make the call!" Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and added, "We’ll pay for the call!"

Ye Chen’s words almost made the little brothers burst out laughing. Shit, conning them out of hundreds of millions, and he’s only paying a few bucks for the call. The little brothers were secretly thrilled, knowing that following Brother Chen meant never being at a loss. Even the Fierce Tiger Gang, ranked among the top three underworld groups in China, dared to be conned by him. If Big Brother wasn’t afraid, neither were the little brothers, not in the slightest.

Then, a few of them grabbed a phone and ran outside to make the call. After over ten minutes of communication, they staggered back in.

"Ye Chen, our boss said, at most one billion!" The other party gritted their teeth.

"Okay then!" Ye Chen stood up, and the other party thought Ye Chen had agreed. A trace of smugness appeared on their faces. However, Ye Chen then said, "Have your boss bring his people to Jianghuai City for a showdown. If you win, you can take the person back with you. If you lose, you leave your boss behind, and the Fierce Tiger Gang will naturally fall apart. After that, we can take the opportunity to take over the Northeast!"

"You!" The other party realized they had been tricked by Ye Chen, grinding their teeth in rage as they glared at him, "Ye Chen, don’t be too arrogant. When our boss gets here, your puny Heavenly Reversal Gang will probably be wiped out without a fight!"

"Then let your boss try!" Ye Chen immediately waved his hand and said, "Haozi, show them out!"

"Yes!" Haozi quickly stood up, and the men hastily backed away. The strength Haozi had just displayed instilled fear in them, so they all drew back. They hurriedly shouted, "Boss Ye, wait a moment!"

"What? You want to linger?" Ye Chen asked. "If it weren’t for the saying ’never kill a messenger,’ I would have thrown you all into the dungeon as well!"

"No, not that!" They shook their heads immediately and said, "We just wanted Boss Ye to give us a bottom line, seven billion is really too much."

"Seven billion isn’t really a lot for you guys!" Ye Chen smirked and suggested, "If you don’t have the money, why not ask Yoda for some help? Isn’t Yoda backing you now?"

"How did you know?" They were stunned, then immediately shook their heads, "Nonsense, we have no connections with the Japanese!"

"Really?" Ye Chen hooked a smile and countered, "Do you think we don’t know about the things the Fierce Tiger Gang has done?"

"What do you know?" They were taken aback.

"To avoid being found out, better not to have done it!" Ye Chen snorted, "Seven billion, not a penny less, or no release!"

The men looked at each other, rather helpless. In the end, the tattooed man who looked pale from anger had to call their superiors again, apparently getting heavily scolded. Finally, it seemed that they reluctantly agreed. Immediately, Ye Chen gave them a Swiss Bank account number, and they used an electronic client to link to the Swiss Bank website and transfer seven billion to Black Water Security Company’s account.

When Da Xia confirmed that the seven billion had been deposited, a wave of exclamations erupted within the Heavenly Reversal Gang. Shit, this was probably the biggest income the Heavenly Reversal Gang had ever had! They had scammed Zhang Dadan before, blackmailed Mr. Crown Prince, and embezzled from Yan Bu’er. But in terms of total amount, this time extorting the Fierce Tiger Gang was definitely the most. The total was as high as seven billion, and though it was just RMB, converting it to US dollars was still a hundred million. But for the Chinese, it was a satisfaction of the heart.

When over a hundred people were released from the dungeon, Ye Chen excitedly shook their hands, "Brothers, come back again next time!"

Thump...

A guy just out of the dungeon immediately collapsed on the ground foaming at the mouth, literally scared stiff by Ye Chen’s last remark. The others hurriedly helped him, hastily jumping onto a truck, then heading for the Jianghuai City Train Station to catch a train specially bound for the Northeast. They shouldn’t even think about flying, judging by this group’s appearances, they’d likely have trouble boarding a plane.

"Brother Chen, we’re rich, we’re rich!" the little brothers cheered.

"Hehe, this Chinese New Year, I’ll give each brother a big red envelope and, additionally, a pension for your parents!" Ye Chen grinned, saying, "Now, even the underworld needs to provide a safety net for the brothers."

Ye Chen began contemplating how to make the most out of these seven billion. Nowadays, the underworld had a common problem: it couldn’t guarantee the safety of every brother’s family. In the underworld, people were mostly forced by circumstances, so they took this path. Truly, anyone with a slight chance of a better life wouldn’t come out to mix. As the saying goes, he who lives by the sword dies by the sword.

All the brothers were looking forward to seeing how much money they would receive in red envelopes during the New Year. Who in the underworld wasn’t out for money? Money was everyone’s ultimate goal. New members of the Heavenly Reversal Gang were only paid a monthly salary of a little over 2000 RMB, and based on the number of appearances and the extent of their injuries, various compensation payments were made. It could add up to 3000 to 5000 a month.

The Heavenly Reversal Gang had a compensation system, where each brother’s family received 300,000 RMB in the event of their death, and depending on the disability level, various one-off compensations were issued. However, once these people received the one-off compensations, they were no longer affiliated with the Heavenly Reversal Gang, as their disabilities meant they could no longer return to the battlefield. Thus, such compensations were a form of cruelty, an act of abandonment for them.

These phenomena were always the least desirable thoughts for Ye Chen, things he least wanted to confront.

"Big Brother, what’s wrong?" Haozi asked in a hurry.

"I’m fine!" Ye Chen waved his hand and asked, "Oh right, have all those little brothers who were casualties last time been settled?"

"Those who died have had their families compensated with 300,000 RMB each according to the standards, and the injured have been compensated based on their disability levels. Those who could be placed have been given jobs at the casino and Black Water Security Company; those who couldn’t, we sent them back home!" Haozi sighed and said, "Brother Chen, those injured brothers, each receiving over 100,000 RMB in compensation, it’s not enough at all. Just sending them back home, their lives from now on will probably be tough..."

"Yes," Ye Chen nodded and said, "They are all good brothers of the Heavenly Reversal Gang. Some got injured while protecting their own brothers in the fight, but we ruthlessly sent them away; it indeed seems a bit excessive. However, keeping them in the gang would hinder the gang’s development!"

"Big Brother, don’t think too much about these things, every gang does the same!" Haozi smiled faintly.

"Hehe, remember to keep the contact details and addresses of those injured brothers. We will need to compensate them in the future!" Ye Chen exhaled a cloud of gloom, trying not to think about these issues.

"Yes, Big Brother!" Haozi nodded immediately. Ye Chen was indeed a man of flesh and blood; he cared for his brothers, those who had once followed him through battles from east to west. Although he was powerless to help them now, once he had the ability, that would be his time to repay his brothers.

Now with these 700 million funds, it was indeed time to properly plan how to establish a system. A system where the little brothers could work for the gang with peace of mind, without worrying about their future even if they had to sacrifice or ended up disabled.

Ye Chen left the Heavenly Reversal Gang and went straight to Jiangnan No.1 District.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of villa No.1, the voice of Little Yezi immediately came bursting out from inside, a series of frantic yelps, making Ye Chen hastily jump out of the car. He saw Li Ruo chasing Little Yezi madly with a stick. As soon as Little Yezi saw Ye Chen, she leapt up and jumped into his Infiniti.

"Xiao Ruo, what’s going on?" Ye Chen asked in astonishment.

"That damn dog, she’s driving me crazy!" Li Ruo couldn’t contain her anger.

"What happened, this is?" Ye Chen was very puzzled as Li Ruo had always loved Little Yezi. Why suddenly did she become so cruel, chasing her around with a stick? Out of breath, Li Ruo said, "That damn dog, she’s angering me to death. She actually stole money to buy cigarettes to smoke, that’s too much!"

"Ah?!" Ye Chen was stunned, then burst out laughing.

Damn, this dog, too clever right? Damn it, probably smarter than police-trained dogs, even learned to steal money to buy cigarettes. Suddenly, Ye Chen thought of a good idea, why not just keep this dog in the Heavenly Reversal Gang in the future? With this dog’s capabilities, wouldn’t it be easy to get things done?

"You’re laughing, it’s all your fault!" Li Ruo threw the stick on the ground and glared angrily at Ye Chen, saying, "If it weren’t for you giving her cigarettes, it wouldn’t have come to this!"

"Hehe, what’s the problem with little Yezi smoking a couple of cigarettes?" Ye Chen grinned and said, "I see you applying all those skincare and health products every day. Little Yezi hasn’t said a word about it."

"That’s taking care of myself!" Li Ruo gnashed her teeth.

"Well, Little Yezi is enjoying herself too!" Ye Chen began his sophistry: "You enjoy the beauty of youth, can’t Little Yezi enjoy the pleasure of a cigarette?"

"Hmph, I’m not dealing with you two anymore!" Li Ruo huffed and then turned to go into the house.

Watching Li Ruo’s retreating figure, Little Yezi immediately poked her head out from inside, spun around once, then gave Ye Chen a pitiful blink of her eyes. She seemed to be saying: Brother Chen, give me a hand here, if you don’t help me, you won’t see Little Yezi again.

"You damn dog, even know how to ask for my help?" Ye Chen burst into laughter, then carried Little Yezi and walked inside.
