Facts have proved that Chu Yunqing was right.

After the fall of Prince Yong's Mansion, all the brothels and brothels wanted to find a backer, and many people must have extended their hands to them. Now, they both wanted to help Yuan Xingxing, and they also had the intention of testing.

After all, although the Yuan Xing Gang is powerful, its rules are strict. Because of this, if it controls Fengyue Place, some of its interests will inevitably be difficult to operate.

Therefore, these people who came today do not necessarily have to seek refuge with the Yuanxing Gang.

And Ke Fang is just as Chu Yunqing thought, he is a smart man. After all, he got to where he is today step by step on his own. In addition to martial arts, brains are also indispensable.

He did not agree to all of them. He only said that there were too many properties after all, and he needed to discuss with the gang leader to let these people go back temporarily.

After everyone was sent away, Ke Fang quickly went up to the attic.

"Brother Qing'er, what do you think of the brothel?" he asked.

"Those people came together and left together. There must have been negotiations behind the scenes." Chu Yunqing looked at the hammer after finishing the gold foil, "Just pick a few."

"What about Xueyue Tower?" Ke Fang hesitated.

"Can they compare with Huaishui Painted Boats?" Chu Yunqing smiled.

Ke Fang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. It turned out that the other party was eyeing the Huaishui Painted Boat.

If it can be won, it will be unmatched by all the brothels in Taiyuan City combined.

"But today, no one seems to be coming over to Huafang," Ke Fang said.

"Who is in charge over there?" Chu Yunqing asked.

"It was Zhou Fang before, but he died last night." Ke Fang said: "It should be someone under his command."

"Find out who it is and who still wants to reach out." Chu Yunqing said casually: "The business of brothels and hooks can be given away, but the Huaishui Painted Boats cannot."

Ke Fang nodded firmly, "I understand, whoever stretches out his claws on the thing we are targeting will be chopped into pieces!"

After receiving the order, he quickly went to make arrangements.

…

After Zhou Fang's death, there were many people who wanted to build a boat on the Huaishui River, such as the government.

Several adults in the government office wanted to get involved in the gold-selling cave.

But although they were desperate at heart, they did not forget to keep their identities secret, and just as they were letting their subordinates use coercion and inducement to negotiate, a group of thugs who seemed not to be trifled with came to the scene.

During the day, no matter whether it is a Huaishui painting boat or a brothel, they are definitely closed. This business must be done at night.

Therefore, the shopkeeper and the nanny on the boat wanted to persuade these people to leave.

But this guy in his 20s or 30s said that it was too cold today and wanted to find a bed to warm himself up. He suddenly got into the mood during the day and had to climb into bed.

Huaishui Painting Boat is an elegant place for romance. Although the girls here have seen many promiscuous people, and there are some bad ones among them, there are really no such vulgar ones.

So many people are so impatient? Who can believe it?

But the spectators on the boat usually only used to scare people, but today they were frightened when they met these rough guys. Judging from the momentum of the two sides, it was difficult to compare them.

The former confidant of Zhou Fang was now in charge of the Huaishui Painted Boat, and Young Master Zhou Jin wanted to negotiate interests with all parties. He just took a quick look at these people and knew that they were coming with bad intentions.

He used to hang out with Zhou Fang and met a lot of people from north to south, whether they were on Jianghu Road or Green Forest Road, he had connections.

The 20 or 30 people in front of me are strong and strong. Although they are all wearing cotton robes, it can be seen that they are all armed with sharp swords and are definitely not ordinary people.

In Taiyuan Prefecture, ordinary people cannot raise such a man.

You don't need to think about it to know that some people, after hearing the news about the demise of Prince Yong's Mansion, set their sights on the Huaishui Painted Boat.

Therefore, Zhou Jin's eyes flickered, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurried out to greet him.

As soon as he came out, dozens of pairs of eyes looked over at him.

"Heroes, where do you put the incense?" Zhou Jin suppressed the fear in his heart and clasped his fists, thinking that he was a charlatan.

He judged from their appearance and momentum that these people were probably Green Forest, thieves who came to do business.

But as soon as Zhou Jin said these words, those men laughed.

One of them, who was tall and round and seemed to be the leader, grinned and slapped him in the face.

A slap the size of a cattail fan slapped Zhou Jin's mouth and blood flowed out. Mr. Zhou screamed and spit out several broken teeth stained with blood, mixed with blood in his mouth.

"Look at you, you're such a coward, and you're here to inquire about this man." The man looked at him with disdain, and then looked around, "I'm bringing the brothers here and there to have fun today. Let's make less noise. Let's just finish it off."

Walk."

Such bluntness and rudeness really shocked the girls who were hiding behind the doors and windows.

People on the boat always feel that their status is better than those in the brothel, and they even feel superior. They are used to being supported by those scholars and gentlemen, so where can you see such rude and vulgar people?

For a moment, they were ashamed and angry.

Zhou Jin was lying on the ground and was finally helped up by the thugs watching the scene.

At this time, he had completely lost his usual cool spirit, and his mouth and nose were covered in blood.

"You dare to hit me?" He pointed at the people in front of him, "Do you know who I am? No matter who you are, don't leave Taiyuan City today!"

Of course Zhou Jin was angry. He thought that no matter where he went, he would be called "Mr. Zhou". How had he ever suffered such humiliation?

Now he has lost all face in front of so many women. If he doesn't regain his dignity, he may never be able to hold his head up again in the future.

Unexpectedly, instead of making the other party afraid of his words, he even received only ridicule.

"Can't leave Taiyuan City?" The man smiled, "I don't want to leave today!"

As he spoke, he put his hand under the cotton robe, and a bright sharp knife made a cut between his fingers.

The dozens of men who came with him all followed the same example, and the sharp knives and daggers in their hands flashed brightly.

The faces of everyone present immediately turned pale.

Even the thugs had cramps in their calves.

They were all hired by Zhou Fang in the past. They were said to be thugs. They usually dealt with people who drank too much and acted wildly. If they really wanted to challenge those gangsters, of course they couldn't.

But before, no one dared to cause trouble here despite the presence of Prince Yong's Mansion.

But now it's different.

The same thing is that when they saw these twenty-odd people wielding swords without any scruples, they all retreated in unison, and no one dared to step forward to provoke them.

Zhou Jin swallowed hard, his harsh words and stubbornness seemed to have been suppressed back into his stomach.

"You have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, but you can speak plainly." The leading man shook his sharp knife, "I wonder which one is sharper than my knife?"

Hearing the joking and undisguised murderous intent in his words, Zhou Jin instantly softened.

"Hero, spare your life!" he blurted out.

The man snorted coldly. At this time, someone under his command winked at him.

"Spare your life? The brothers' swords are all bright, how can there be no reason not to see blood?" The man shouted angrily, and thrust the sharp knife forward, as if he was going to stab Zhou Jin with one strike.
