105: Chapter 104 The Kill Order: A Warning

[Hired thugs, commission: 50k, objective: break your legs, make you stay away from Liu Yan, employer: Wang Sheng]

[Wang Sheng has temporarily left Shen City, but he will return once he receives news that you have been dealt with. In 5 days, for Liu Yan's birthday, he will shamelessly show up to curry favor.]

Lin Feng frowned slightly.

Since transmigrating, apart from taking revenge on those who wronged him in his previous life, Lin Feng generally handled conflicts with others with a cold shoulder.

He would never let things escalate to a life-or-death situation.

In this life, he only wanted to develop low-key, make money quickly, and raise his status.

2011 was a year of opportunity. CEO Lei of Xiaomi was plunged into darkness this year, becoming the laughingstock of the business circle.

Dianping received investment from Ma of Shenzhen, becoming a leader in the Huaxia lifestyle channel, and later linked up with Meituan Delivery to become a leader in that sector.

That same year, 58 Tongcheng was founded and would go on to shine in the second-hand business, but unfortunately, he had already eaten that piece of the cake first.

With so many business opportunities, how could Lin Feng have time for fighting and killing?

"Brothers, have I offended you?"

The lead thug had white hair and looked a bit unhinged.

This type of punk couldn't scrape together 100 yuan among ten people, but they were truly ruthless when they attacked.

Suddenly, Lin Feng sensed movement around him.

In the flower beds and bushes near the company, several figures flickered.

Lin Feng waved his hand, and the movement stopped.

The six members of Zhang Dong's team protected Lin Feng in two shifts.

They were usually hidden in the shadows and remained silent unless there was danger.

Upon receiving Lin Feng's signal, the three hiding in the shadows returned to stillness.

"Brothers, you're just after money. I'll give you 100k, how about that?"

"100k?"

The white-haired youth didn't expect Lin Feng to be so generous, thinking he was just a fool with money who was also a coward.

The guy rolled his eyes and grinned, saying, "We take money to do a job; we can't lack credibility."

"200k."

"Deal."

"I'll give you another 300k, tell me who told you to do this."

"Really? Don't lie to me."

"If I'm lying, you can hack me with your machete."

The white-haired guy thought that made sense. He pointed his machete at Lin Feng and said viciously, "My boss is Brother Dao. He's ruthless, and he's the one who took the job."

"The other guy seems to be named Wang Sheng. He gave 50k and wants your legs."

"Oh… do you know Zhang Quan?"

The white-haired guy was stunned, then suddenly sneered, "Trying to name-drop with me?"

"It's one thing to name-drop others, but Brother Quan? Do you even know him?"

"His big name is known even by those outside the underworld. Don't try to bluff me, give me the money."

"Fine, wait a moment, I'll have finance bring it over."

Lin Feng pretended to pick up the phone and put it to his ear.

He waved his hand behind his back, and three figures suddenly lunged out from the bushes.

Sun Hongwei, Wang Zhaojun, and Chen Lei were like three fierce tigers. They rushed into the crowd, taking out the trash with one punch each.

The entire fight didn't even last a minute, leaving only the white-haired guy standing.

"Take them to the company."

"Yes, Boss."

These thugs were bullies who feared the strong; they had never seen experts like this and were too scared to speak.

"Hey, Brother Quan, do you have time? Come to my company and sit for a while. Alright, I'll wait for you."

An hour later, the doors of Fengda Delivery were shut tight.

Lin Feng and Zhang Quan sat side by side on the sofa, while a man in his 30s knelt on the floor with his head down, his face full of terror.

"Li Dao, you've grown some guts, taking any job?"

"Brother Quan, Brother Feng, I really didn't know who that bastard was looking for."

"How much did he give you?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

"100k in total. I took 50k, and the other 50k was for my underlings to do the job."

"Still have a conscience. Where is Wang Sheng?"

"He said, let me solve your problem, then call him."

Zhang Quan asked, "Lin, what's the beef between you and this Wang Sheng?"

"Let's not talk about it. Please, Brother Quan, do me a favor."

"Go ahead."

"Have them call Wang Sheng and say they've already dealt with me. Later, forge a few photos and send them over."

"You want to lure him to Shen City?"

"Yeah."

"Brother Quan, I have a request. I don't really want to see him again."

"I hope the underworld of Shen City can issue a bounty order on him."

"This…"

Lin Feng had prepared 1 million. Some money had to be spent.

Zhang Quan had plenty of ways to make Wang Sheng disappear without anyone knowing.

However, Lin Feng's pupils contracted slightly. An intelligence update appeared above Zhang Quan's head.

[Zhang Quan: Will be arrested in a week due to a crackdown, suspected of operating underground casinos, KTVs, and providing illicit services in bars and nightlife venues. Although he will use his connections to avoid prison, he will lose tens of millions and won't recover for the next 3 years.]

A new idea instantly formed in Lin Feng's mind.

He could achieve his goal just by moving his lips and save 1 million; why not?

It would also perfectly reinforce the persona that he had powerful connections, killing two birds with one stone.

"Brother Quan, I was planning to give you money, but given our relationship, talking about money hurts our friendship."

Zhang Quan was stunned, looking at Lin Feng with some confusion.

He remembered that Lin Feng never blinked when giving money; why was he suddenly acting coy?

"Don't misunderstand. It's just that I have something more valuable than money for you."

"More valuable than money? What is it?"

"In one week, Shen City will launch a special inspection targeting entertainment venues like card parlors, nightclubs, and bath centers, involving crackdowns on vice, gambling, and gang activity. The scale will be huge."

"What… Lin, is what you're saying true?"

"The information is 100% accurate. Brother Quan, make preparations early."

Through their contact and interaction over time, he already understood Lin Feng's character well.

This was a young man who couldn't be judged by his peers.

He wasn't short on money, and at this time, instead of giving money, he revealed such important information—he definitely treated him as a friend.

"Brother Quan, Chen Wei and I are brothers. I know that walking the path of the underworld is a last resort. Once I achieve success, pulling you up will just be a matter of convenience."

Zhang Quan's pupils contracted; he instantly understood Lin Feng's meaning.

"Lin, Brother Quan won't say anything flowery. I'll go back and make arrangements. As for this Wang Sheng, as long as he comes to Shen City, I guarantee this kid will regret it for the rest of his life."

"Alright, then I won't see you out."

Brother Quan left the company with Li Dao and a group of thugs.

Lin Feng stood up and dialed Zhang Yan's number.

This little fanboy was a bit of a playboy and a bit useless, but for some odd jobs, he was quite reliable.

"Hey, Brother Feng, you finally called me."

"I need you to do something. Come to my company."

"Alright."

Lin Feng didn't intend to use the storefronts along the street or the office building here anymore.

At the time, he had no money and had gotten them from Zhang Yan for free.

This time, calling him over, Lin Feng intended to give the kid 500k as a thank you for his support over the past few months.

About ten minutes later, footsteps sounded outside the door.

Zhang Yan pushed the door open and entered. Seeing Lin Feng, he looked excited, just like meeting a technician at a foot massage parlor.

Seeing him covered in sweat, Lin Feng asked suspiciously, "Did you f*cking run here? Why are you so exhausted?"
