Chapter 1418 Big Shots Gather in the Storm

"Come on, Mr. Luo, I'll take you somewhere."

Hongye waved, the car started, and roared off.

Luo Feng and Colin remained expressionless throughout.

In this situation, they could only follow Hong Ye's ideas.

It has to be said that Master Hong really has some skills; he should be considered the first person to successfully trap Luo Feng in a certain place.

Of course, it's also related to the fact that Luo Feng wasn't very familiar with Ou City and didn't have many followers.

"Where are we going?" Luo Feng asked, frowning.

"You'll know when it arrives."

Then, Master Hong waved his hand.

Both Luo Feng and Colin were blindfolded.

Seeing this scene, Luo Feng had actually anticipated it.

However, he did not expect that Master Hong would go to such lengths.

Colin was a little nervous. He looked at Luo Feng's position and asked in a low voice.

"Mr. Luo, my men have arrived."

Luo Feng glanced at him but didn't say anything.

In such a confined space, even if you speak very softly, the other person will definitely be able to hear you.

Hongye glanced at the rearview mirror, a cold smile playing on his lips, but said nothing more.

He did hear it, but he didn't take what the other person said seriously.

Because this is Europe.

On his own turf, Hong Ye never worried about the power of others who could rival his.

I don’t know how long it took.

Luo Feng sensed that the car had stopped.

Master Hong chuckled softly, and his wheelchair slowly reversed. The warehouse shutter behind him rose with a "whoosh," revealing a brightly lit space inside.

A dozen or so well-dressed men and women were scattered on the leather sofa. Whiskey and cigars were laid out on the crystal table in front of them. When they saw Luo Feng enter, their eyes all turned to him.

When Colin saw this, he recognized several of the people in the group.

He held his breath and pretended not to see it.

However, those people seemed to recognize him as well, and they gave him a cold smile.

"Brother Hong, who are these people?"

Luo Feng asked.

He really didn't know who these people were; he hadn't been in Europe long enough.

Before Master Hong could speak, the others also asked questions.

"Master Hong, who is this distinguished guest? We've been waiting for quite a while."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng narrowed his eyes.

Could it be that the other party had planned to hold such a trap all along?

Otherwise, how could they have gathered all these people together so quickly?

"introduce."

Hongye's voice echoed in the empty warehouse as he began to introduce Luo Feng's identity to everyone.

"This is Mr. Luo, who holds a treasure that can make the underworld of Europe City tremble."

"I apologize for keeping you all waiting for so long, but please believe me, this distinguished guest will not disappoint you."

In this way, Master Hong elevated Luo Feng to a very high position.

If Luo Feng fails to produce what these people want, then what awaits him will be more than just Hong Ye's wrath.

That move was indeed quite skillful.

It seems that Luo Feng really underestimated Hong Ye, the leader of an underground force. He is no ordinary person who can be based in Oucheng.

A bald man with a cigar in his mouth chuckled from the corner.

"Brother Hong is joking. These days, even a Tom, Dick, or Harry can be treated as an honored guest?"

He was Lei, the boss of the dock gang, with a dragon coiled around his arm and undisguised contempt in his eyes when he glanced at Luo Feng.

Colin squinted. He recognized this person; in fact, they had interacted before.

The woman in the cheongsam diagonally opposite tapped the table with her nail polished nails, the sound so soft it was almost sickening.

"Boss Lei, don't get angry so easily. Maybe Mr. Luo really has extraordinary abilities. After all, it's rare to see someone who can get Master Hong to set up a scheme personally."

She is Sister Mei, who controls half of the nightclubs in Europe. She seems to be all smiles, but there is a scheming look in her eyes.

"Wait, everyone, there are three more guests."

As soon as he finished speaking, several black Maybachs silently drove up in the distance, and three men in suits stepped out of the cars.

Lokolin's eyes narrowed. These three were all top bosses in the European City underworld!
"introduce."

Hongye smiled, but his voice was as cold as a knife.

"Mr. Morris of the Golden Lion Society."

A tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed man nodded slightly, his eyes sharp as an eagle's.

"Carlo of the Mafia."

Another bald man grinned, revealing gold teeth, and had a black snake tattooed on his neck.

"And... Lee Jung-hoon, the vice president of the European City Chamber of Commerce."

The last one was an Asian man with gold-rimmed glasses who looked refined, but Luo Feng sensed a dangerous signal.

After all, Hongye hadn't introduced the identities of these people at all.

Instead, he took the initiative to introduce the identities of these three people.

However, judging from the current results, these three people are indeed more distinguished and their status should be higher than those others.

Because Luo Feng had already seen the others stand up and greet the three of them.

Colin's face turned deathly pale instantly. He lowered his voice and said to Luo Feng, "We're doomed... These people are all ruthless characters who will devour people without spitting out the bones!"

Master Hong's move was clearly intended to make Luo Feng see things clearly.

In Europe, he had no bargaining power whatsoever!

These people all have their own identities, and none of them are as simple as they seem.

Luo Feng didn't reply, but walked straight to the empty sofa and sat down, with Colin standing nervously behind him.

The jade pendant was burning hot in his pocket, as if reminding him that every gaze around him concealed a knife.

This is what everyone is coveting.

For some reason, he always felt like he had been tricked.

You should know that he bought this jade pendant at a street stall.

Before this, no one knew where he was.

When Luo Feng took out this item, he instantly became the target of everyone's criticism.

"Mr. Luo, wouldn't you like to try this 1982 Lafite?"

Seeing that Luo Feng remained silent, Master Hong gestured for his men to pour wine, and smiled knowingly, "Once this opportunity is gone, it's gone forever." "Master Hong's wine might give you heartburn."

Luo Feng placed his hands on his knees, remaining expressionless even when facing these people.

"The bigwigs here today aren't here to laugh at me, are they?"

Boss Lei slammed his cigar into the ashtray.

"Fine! We'll get straight to the point. Hand over the jade pendant, and we'll be fine. Otherwise, tomorrow the Thames in Europe will have two more floating corpses."

This is a blatant threat, a direct threat to Luo Feng.

Mei covered her mouth and chuckled, "Boss Lei is still as rude as ever. Mr. Luo, why don't you take my advice? The conditions offered by Master Hong are quite reasonable."

“Those lunatics in the Shadow Council are not to be trifled with. Last time, the arms dealer in the west of the city was killed because he hid something they wanted. I believe everyone has heard about this.”

Luo Feng remained silent.

He must maintain his position; at this crucial moment, he absolutely cannot afford to make a rash move.

Once things fall into chaos, it's all over.

Colin swallowed hard.

Today's trap may not be so easy to escape.

If they're not careful, neither of them might make it out of here, and they could lose their lives.

"Mr. Luo, I've long admired your name."

Lee Jung-hoon, who had been silent all along, pushed up his glasses and poured himself a glass of red wine with a smile.

"I heard you have a very successful business in China. Why are you suddenly interested in antiques in Europe?"

As expected of a big shot, his mouth alone gives off a different vibe.

"Just a hobby."

Luo Feng smiled faintly, "Just like everyone's interest in money."

These last few words were a direct and indirect slap in the face to everyone present.

Who doesn't like money?

However, how to make money and what path to take are their choices.

Carlo scoffed, "Kid, you're pretty arrogant, aren't you? Just because Master Hong gives you face doesn't mean we have to give you face too."

That's true. Many people believe that Master Hong respects Luo Feng, and so do these people.

But don't forget who these people are; they're not ordinary people.

If pushed too far, they could easily ignite a fierce battle throughout the entire city of Europe.

Morris didn't say anything, but slowly and methodically cut his steak, the knife tip making a harsh sound as it scraped against the plate.

He didn't look at Luo Feng even once from beginning to end, as if he didn't exist.

Hong Ye sat in the main seat, watching the show with a faint smile, clearly intending for these big shots to put pressure on Luo Feng.

Some things he said made him a villain.

Therefore, the most advanced skill for a hunter is to get others to say what they really want to say.

Colin was sweating, his hands clenched tightly under the table.

This isn't negotiation; it's clearly a coup.

This time it's probably really over.

He did not regret choosing to cooperate with Luo Feng.

Instead, she regretted not meeting Luo Feng sooner, otherwise things wouldn't be like this now.

Otherwise, before others notice or discover it, Luo Feng could definitely accomplish something big by cooperating with him!
The atmosphere at the scene was as if frozen solid.

It's quite eerie when it's so quiet.

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly tense, Luo Feng suddenly smiled.

"Everyone, we don't really need to make things so tense."

He picked up his wine glass and swirled it gently.

In his mind, Luo Feng already had a plan.

If it were just Master Hong alone, or with these three big shots added, Luo Feng would feel that the situation would be difficult to control.

But the fact that so many people showed up this time made Luo Feng feel that things weren't so difficult to solve.

After all, everyone who comes here wants a piece of the pie.

Nobody wants to lose a portion of their profits.

"Mr. Luo, isn't this whole mess all because of you?"

Boss Lei raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways at Luo Feng.

"How about this, you kneel down, kowtow to all of us, and then obediently hand over the items. I guarantee the situation won't be as tense as it is now."

These words were full of insults to Luo Feng.

Throughout the entire room, apart from Colin, not a single person was angry.

"enough."

Luo Feng raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"Since you are all prominent figures in Oucheng, you should know that taking things by force and plunder will not get you far."

Mr. Hong raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh? Mr. Luo has a better idea?"

He finally made Luo Feng unable to sit still.

This was a scene that Master Hong was very happy to see. Otherwise, if Luo Feng remained calm and collected, it would make Master Hong wonder if the kid had some kind of conspiracy that he hadn't discovered.

"The jade pendant can be borrowed, but not for free."

Luo Feng leaned forward slightly and began his own rhythm.

“I know that you all have a lot of idle resources at your disposal, such as Boss Lei’s docks, Sister Mei’s venues, and Boss Hong’s information network that covers the whole city.”

He deliberately didn't mention those three people, which is a detail.

Logically, these three people should be mentioned because of their higher status, and we should be giving them more profit.

He paused, then raised his voice a few decibels and said, "I have a project that will yield at least a 30% return within three months."

"As long as you are willing to contribute resources, not only can the jade pendant be lent out, but after the matter is accomplished, I will share 10% of the profits with you."

The warehouse fell silent instantly; everyone was stunned.

No one expected that the person who was put on the chopping block would actually dare to talk about cooperation.

Just as Boss Lei was about to explode, Master Hong raised his hand and pressed him down, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes behind his mask: "Mr. Luo certainly has guts. But why should we trust you?"

"Because I've managed to stay here from Hong Ye's trap until now."

Luo Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and said calmly, "Based on the value of this jade pendant, it is far more than what you see."

"If the cooperation succeeds, everyone's resources will double. If not, you can always try to seize the jade pendant later."

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Sister Mei's eyes as she asked, "What project?"
