Hei Long startled inwardly. He quickly nodded and walked toward the conference room. As he entered the room and saw Tang Xiu sitting in a chair and smoking, the then asked cautiously, “Young master Tang, what’s your command?”
“Sit!” Tang Xiu pointed to the chair at the side and said.
“Alright!”
With a straight and tightened body, Hei Long took a seat and then asked, “Young master Tang, I already resolved myself. After joining you, I will never turn south if you order me east. Likewise, I will never dare to fall to the ground after you tell me to go up to the sky. Whatever your command, please order me. As long as this Hei Long can do it, I’ll absolutely do it, even if I have to throw my life.”
“I need you to do a simple thing.” Tang Xiu said, “This Hongpo District is your turf and you’ve been here for many years. I believe your intelligence network should be good, yes?”
Hei Long confidently replied, “Yes. Though I have only a little more than twenty trusted men, there are still many little brothers following me. Plus, there’s still many small forces that have very complex relationships with me. I can easily inquire some news for you.”
“Then your task is to assign some people to each street within a radius of ten kilometers surrounding the factory. Report to me immediately should any situation arise.” Tang Xiu nodded and said, “To be frank with you, though I’m a junior of the Tang Family, this is my second time facing our adversary. The enemy’s strength is very substantial and is on par with ours. Hence, our Tang Family is about to contend with the other party here in Guangyang, exactly in this Guan City. Our main base, later on, will be in Hongpo District.”
A light flashed in Hei Long’s eyes as he asked, “Could you tell me who our enemy is, Boss?”
“It’s the Yao Family from Beijing and the Sun Family from Guangyang.” Said Tang Xiu indifferently.
_Hiss…_
Hei Long couldn’t help but take a cold breath. He had never heard of the Yao Family of Beijing, but he was crystal clear about the Sun Family of Guangyang. The latter was a family with huge power and influence that definitely ranked in the top five families among the major families of Guangyang.
“Don’t be that shocked.” Tang Xiu said, “Though our Tang Family is contending against these two families, it’s limited to just the Guangyang and Fukang Provinces. Nonetheless, it’s only a small-scale game; the outcome won’t affect our family too much. And you, since I’m the one who picked you, I’ll guarantee your safety. And, regardless of the outcome, I’ll give you a lot of benefits when I leave this province.”
The worries inside Hei Long’s heart eased down a lot. He straightened up his chest and said, “Young master Tang, after this Hei Long becomes your underling, I’ll still become a ghost under you even after I die. Please command me!”
“If you’re confident, then show me a stellar performance.” Said Tang Xiu with a smile, “Your influence in Guangyang will be no longer limited to just a small place such as this Hongpo District. Do you understand my meaning?”
Hei Long’s eyes shined as he heavily nodded and replied, “I understand!”
Tang Xiu waved his hand and said, “Go then! After you go back, start on my order at once. I must ensure the security of our main base, and your people will play an important role for that.”
“Understood!”
Standing up, Hei Long then prepared to leave. But his pace suddenly came to a halt as he hesitated for a moment before asking, “Young master Tang, would you mind if I ask you about that Jingying Internet Café’s owner—Guo Sen, he…”
“To tell you the truth, he’s the man of the Huang Family from Fukang Province. Not only that, he’s also a intelligence personnel trained by the Huang Family. I have a special relationship with the Huang Family, so I asked for their assistance. If you wanna prove your ability, then do better than Guo Sen.” Said Tang Xiu dully.
Instantly, Hei Long felt the pressure on him.
What Tang Xiu meant was something he was very well aware of. Aside from his people who were responsible for monitoring Hongpo District, there were also the intelligence people from the Huang Family. He knew what kind of existence the Huang Family was in Fukang Province. It was a big family ranked at the top one there. The details revealed by Tang Xiu gave him pressure; yet, at the same time, he was also somewhat excited. After all, the chance for the Tang Family to win would increase by several times with assistance from the Huang Family.
“Young master Tang, I won’t let you down!”
Along with Hei Long’s departure, Tang Xiu walked out of the conference room. He then faced Li Xiaojie who had been waiting outside and said, “Send some of our men to observe him closely! I don’t want any complicated matters to arise because of him.”
“I’ll send my best scout to observe him closely,” said Li Xiaojie with a nod.
The night passed with nothing more happening.
Early in the morning.
Tang Xiu and Li Xiaojie left the factory to head toward Fukang Province. On the way there, he contacted Guo Sen and told him to buy a dozen used cars.
Fukang Province, Zhou City.
It was Tang Xiu’s first time visiting the city. He found that the city was not inferior at all compared to Shanghai with its high-rise buildings and continuous streams of traffic in its wide streets.
10 AM. Tang Xiu arrived at the Zhou City’s Huang Family.
With the Huang Family boasting a very strong force in Fukang Province, they owned a land encompassing a large area where they built their family manor. When the car arrived at the front gate of the Huang Family’s residence, they were stopped by the security guards at the main gate post.
“May I ask who you are? This is a private residential area. Outsiders are not allowed to enter.”
As the security guard saw Tang Xiu and Li Xiaojie caming out of the taxi, he suddenly said in a deep tone.
