Chapter 2214 - 2415: The Use of That Thing!!!

The old district is just the former urban area. It's just that after Yun City's economy developed later on, they expanded the urban area into what's now this region. Gradually this place became the city center, the new urban area, so the previous one started being called the old district.

The old district actually isn't that far from the new one, it's just a bit closer to the suburbs. Its economic strength and level of development aren't as prosperous as the new district, and the level of management isn't as high as the new district either. So, little by little, it turned into a gathering place for drifters and minor forces.

A bunch of young guys who didn't even finish middle school gathered there, or who dropped out halfway through vocational school. Most of them have no ambition but are dissatisfied with their current lives, so they just idle around all day, hanging with a crowd and muddling through life as small-time gangsters.

Arcades, pool halls, and KTVs are the main ways those gangster factions in there make a living. And the fact that those forces from the neighboring city, after coming to Yun City, didn't set up in the new district but chose the old one instead, shows they've got other intentions.

That part, Hao Jian wasn't going to meddle in, and didn't want to. What he wanted to know was just where that group of theirs was right now, then go find them for payback, let them know what happens after chopping Baldy.

Hao Jian's face suddenly turned gloomy. He looked at Baldy and asked, "Since you know roughly which area they're in, get someone to pinpoint their exact location. Right now. I want it in a bit."

Baldy frowned as soon as he heard that. He knew what Hao Jian wanted to do, but he still asked, "Brother Hao, what are you planning?"

Hao Jian rolled his eyes at him and said, "What I'm planning isn't obvious? Hurry up and find their location. Also, get a few brothers to bring some gear over, and find a few brothers with bigger guts who are willing to do this, and come with me."

Baldy froze for a moment. What he'd originally planned was to wait until he recovered, then take the brothers to get revenge. There was no need to let Hao Jian know, and no need to trouble Hao Jian with this. But he never expected Hao Jian not only found out, he came over planning to take the brothers straight over to stir up trouble for those guys. That really moved him.

He's been in the Jianghu for quite a while, mixed around early on, followed a boss before, and he's also been a boss himself. Putting himself in others' shoes and speaking from his conscience, whether it was how his boss treated him back then, or how he treated his own men when he was the boss, none of it was as thoughtful as Hao Jian is.

Think about it: he gets hacked, then Hao Jian finds out, and the first thing he does after finding out is come visit him, and then go take people to cause trouble for the other side. If it were someone else, you could chalk it up as nothing. But the other side is clearly prepared, and their strength is no joke.

They came in and, right off the bat, took down Yunqi Gang, the number-one force in Yun City's underworld. Yunqi Gang had been in Yun City for a long time, always holding a peak position that no one could shake, yet they came and smashed it in one go, even the boss ran off and disappeared. And in this situation, the moment Hao Jian finds out his own man got attacked, his first reaction is actually to take people to cause trouble for them, to win back their face and avenge the humiliation.

Just that alone moved him. Right now he suddenly didn't know what to say, his heart completely filled with emotion. The guys nearby, listening to Hao Jian's words, were a bit moved too, and for a moment the atmosphere got a little heavy.

However, just then, Hao Jian suddenly smacked Baldy and said, "What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and call people."

"Oh, oh!" Baldy snapped back to his senses, immediately picked up his phone, and went to make the calls.

At this time, Hao Jian grabbed a stool and sat down, while Lin Dongyang stood to the side. Before long, Baldy finished his two calls, then pulled out his phone to show Hao Jian, saying, "Brother Hao, they're at this spot."

Hao Jian glanced at the address and silently memorized it. He'd been to that place not long ago, so with one look he knew where it was. Baldy added, "Brother Hao, the guys are called too, the brothers all say they want to go. What now?"

Hao Jian waved his hand and handed the phone back to Baldy, saying, "We don't need that many people. Pick ten or so strong brothers with guts to come with me, that's enough."

"Got it, Brother Hao." Baldy said.

Then Hao Jian walked back over to Baldy's bedside, and comforted him, saying, "As for you, just lie here and heal up. When you're better, then come work with me. For now just wait here for my news, I'll avenge you. Fuck, they dare chop my brother, I'll make them pay in blood, let them know what happens when they piss off Laozi!"

"Yeah, Brother Hao!" Baldy nodded.

Right now, he really didn't know what else to say. Listening to Hao Jian's words, he was very moved, and could only keep nodding silently, feeling endless gratitude to Hao Jian in his heart.

Think about it: when you're facing a rough patch in life, and someone shows up beside you to smash that deadlock for you, wouldn't you be moved? Wouldn't you end up absolutely loyal to him?

After Hao Jian finished speaking, he just smiled, then waved his hand and left the ward with Lin Dongyang. Once outside, the people sitting in the chairs saw him come out and all stood up at once, and the two guys guarding the door also looked over immediately. This time, Hao Jian smiled and said, "Thanks for the trouble."

The group replied, "It's no trouble."

Right after that, Hao Jian took Lin Dongyang and left. He had promised He Yingzi some things, but there were still other things he had to do. The two of them left the hospital, walked to the roadside, and by then a van was already parked there waiting for them.

"Brother Hao!" As soon as that guy saw Hao Jian, he immediately called out respectfully.

Hao Jian just nodded silently and got in the van. There were about five or six people inside, all of them big, burly types. Hao Jian asked the one in the lead, "Everyone's here? What about the toys?"

The guy said, "Yeah, they're all here, waiting for us outside. The toys are in the trunk."

"Mm, good." Hao Jian nodded, then said, "Let's go."

The van drove for a while, and when they were about to reach the urban district, they could already see a few vans parked by the roadside. The van Hao Jian was in pulled over, he got out, and at once the people in those vans all got off together. In an instant, more than twenty burly young men were standing along the roadside.

Hao Jian grinned and said, "Our brother got hacked up, now we're going to get payback. But the other side might have more people than we do. You scared?"

"Not scared! They dared chop Brother Baldy when the brothers weren't around, so what if they have more people, we'll chop them up!" No sooner had Hao Jian finished than a roar of response rose up.

"Yeah! Blood for blood, we're gonna knock them down!" they shouted back.

Hao Jian laughed and said, "Very good! Then let's move!"

Right after that, the whole group got into the vans. A bunch of guys split up among several vans, engines roared to life, and they sped off toward the address Baldy's people had dug up.

......

Right then, inside a pool hall in the old district, several pool tables were all occupied. The weather wasn't hot, actually felt a bit cool, but every single one of them was burning up inside. They were all shirtless, playing pool with cigarettes in their mouths, and a bottle of beer sitting beside each table.

Smoking, drinking beer, shooting pool, and every now and then cursing a few filthy words, the whole bunch was restless as hell. Off to the side of this crowd, in the back room, sat another group around a table piled with booze and cigarettes, a noisy mess, everyone ringed together with vicious looks on their faces.

Some were standing, but only three were sitting, and each of them had a hot, curvy girl in skimpy clothes perched on his lap, the kind that made your blood boil just looking at her.

Right now everyone was centered around those three, the place loud and rowdy. But just then, a guy with a mole at the corner of his mouth—Mole-face—said, "Aquan, we've already taken down their number one force, the Yunqi Gang. Why the hell are we still holed up in this shitty bird‑don't‑even‑shit old district?"

Aquan shot him a look and calmed his impatience. "Why the hell you worrying so much? Boss tells us to do it this way, we do it this way. Boss has his reasons. And… there's always someone tougher out there. Don't go thinking just 'cause we flattened Yunqi we're hot shit. You gotta remember, the Jianghu is fucking dangerous."

A short‑sleeved young guy beside him had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, while his hands were roaming all over the hot chick sitting on his lap. Then he chimed in, "Yeah! If Boss says so, he's got his reasons. We just follow orders. Besides, once we take Yun City, won't we be living large every damn day? Chicks for us to play with however we want. You can't handle eating just this little bit of shit?"

The hot chick on his lap didn't even twitch when she heard him say "chicks for us to play with," her face totally calm, like it was nothing out of the ordinary, just everyday shit.

The short‑sleeved guy sighed, "You gotta eat bitterness to stand above the rest."

Mole-face still looked pissed, but hearing the two of them talk like that, he could only swallow his anger. He took a deep drag on his cigarette, then grabbed the bottle of booze on the table and downed it in one go.

Then he snapped, temper flaring, "Fuck this shit, once we take the new district I can finally vent this fucking anger. Being stuck in this bird‑don't‑shit dump is suffocating me. When we kill our way over there I'm at least gonna find a dozen fresh girls and go at it for three days and three nights straight!"

Aquan and the short‑sleeved guy both broke into grins when they heard that.

"You just can't stop eating shit, can you, you dog?" the short‑sleeved guy said with a laugh.

Mole-face shot back, "Fuck you, like you're any better. You got the balls to say you're not into women? Fuck that! You got that thing between your legs, what's it for if not for fucking? What else you gonna do with it?!"
