"Gangzi?" Hearing the report from outside, Zhao Wuji was momentarily surprised.
He had seven bath centers under his name, and each one had a trusted person to keep an eye out for him.
Even though Lin Gang was just one of his subordinates, his methods were extremely ruthless, and he handed over the most money every year. So Zhao Wuji was quite fond of him.
However, Lin Gang usually wouldn’t come to him if there was nothing major. Today, he must have encountered something special to come here.
"Brother Dong, I’ll step out for a bit." Zhao Wuji didn’t want anyone to know about his relationship with Shang Wen Dong and also didn’t want Lin Gang to disturb Shang Wen Dong’s bath. He greeted Shang Wen Dong and wrapped a towel around himself before stepping out.
Outside the bath pool, there was a lounge. Lin Gang’s hand had already been bandaged.
He looked extremely disheveled, accompanied by the equally disheveled Chicken Head.
"Boss." Seeing Zhao Wuji come out, Lin Gang hurriedly nodded and bowed in greeting.
Zhao Wuji looked at Lin Gang and curiously asked, "What’s going on? You look like you’ve been wronged?"
Lin Gang’s face turned red. It felt like being bullied and then coming to his parent for help.
"Boss, someone dared to bully us on our turf, not only beating our men but also stopping us from collecting protection fees. I can’t swallow this indignation!" Lin Gang said angrily, but remembering Ye Guichen’s terror, he couldn’t help but shudder.
Zhao Wuji was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and saw it was a call from Black Panther, so he quickly answered, "Black Panther, what’s up?"
"Where are you?" Black Panther got straight to the point, "The boss wants to see you."
"The boss wants to see me?" Zhao Wuji had not seen Ye Guichen since he announced the consolidation of power. Knowing that Ye Guichen wanted to meet him now, he felt flattered, "Okay, okay, I’m at Zuichunxiao Bath Center. I’ll go to the entrance right now to wait for Mr. Ye."
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly instructed, "Quickly, prepare a formal suit for me. I’m going out to meet someone."
Seeing Zhao Wuji’s excitement, Lin Gang couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Boss, who could it be that you need to meet personally?"
"Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask!" Zhao Wuji glared at Lin Gang impatiently, "Say what you need to say quickly, I have to leave in three minutes."
Lin Gang gulped and quickly summarized the situation.
However, he knew that it wouldn’t be easy for Zhao Wuji to stand up for him.
After all, in Zhao Wuji’s eyes, he was probably just a watchdog. If he didn’t have something to offer in return, why would Zhao Wuji help him?
Thinking this, Lin Gang deliberately exaggerated the efficacy of the Seven Treasures Linglong Noodles a bit more. After explaining, he added, "Boss, I’m not exaggerating even a bit. Although those noodles aren’t medicine, they’re more miraculous than medicine. If we could monopolize them, the profits wouldn’t be less than we make now!"
He kicked Chicken Head beside him, "Chicken Head, you also ate those noodles, tell the boss."
Lin Gang brought Chicken Head to strengthen the case for the Seven Treasures Linglong Noodles.
Chicken Head quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, boss, Brother Gang is absolutely right. We came here specifically to tell you this. Those Seven Treasures Linglong Noodles haven’t been widely recognized yet. If we get our hands on them, we could easily open thousands of chain stores."
Zhao Wuji was currently worried about how to transition, and hearing this, his eyes lit up.
The suggestion Shang Wen Dong gave him was very feasible, but there were risks involved. Killing Black Panther quietly was manageable, but if others found out, there could be trouble.
But from what Lin Gang said, it would be hard for this medicinal noodle shop not to be a hit!
"Alright, I get it. You guys wait here. I’ll be back to discuss this with you after I meet someone!" Zhao Wuji had almost finished dressing, and he walked out as he spoke.
Lin Gang was overjoyed.
As long as Zhao Wuji was interested in those medicinal noodles, dealing with Ye Guichen would be a piece of cake.
But seeing Zhao Wuji being so solemn in meeting someone, Chicken Head couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Brother Gang, who in the world requires Boss Zhao to personally greet them?"
Lin Gang glared at Chicken Head, "If I knew, I wouldn’t be beaten ."
Just thinking about the stab on the back of his hand brought back a sharp pain.
"Little bastard, just wait. Boss Zhao will definitely chop you up to feed the fish!" Lin Gang thought of how Ye Guichen continuously humiliated him and even cut off his pinky, making him grit his teeth in hatred.
Outside, just as Zhao Wuji arrived, Black Panther’s car pulled up.
After stopping the car, Black Panther swiftly ran to the rear door to open it for Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen didn’t get out of the car but glanced at Zhao Wuji.
Zhao Wuji’s face was full of smiles, and he slightly bowed his head to show respect, "Mr. Ye, if you need anything, just let me know. You didn’t have to come all this way."
