Chapter 2486 What does "the main branch of the Green Gang" mean?

Chapter 2486

"Uncle Liu took care of me when I was a child, and even watched me grow up."

"He was my father's most capable assistant, and he saved my father's life on several occasions."

"However, he suddenly disappeared a few years ago."

"I'm curious where he went?"

“My father said he had assigned me the task of developing overseas territories. I didn’t think much of it.”

"I never imagined that I would be captured by my fake father."

Hai Jing then said, "I went into the secret room to activate the mechanism according to the method Qiao Ya gave me. I turned the mechanism three times to the left and one time to the right as she instructed, but after opening it, I saw Liu Sheng."

"Liu said that he had been imprisoned there for the past three years."

"This means there's something fishy about the mechanism. The mechanism, with three circles to the left and one circle to the right, should lead to a secret room where there's a safe."

"The same medicine that Josiah stole for my father back then would still be available, but it's no longer available now."

"Instead, it became the place where Liu Sheng was, which means that the way the mechanism is opened determines where you will enter. Such a mechanism is very sophisticated."

"If we want to crack this, we'll probably need to find someone who knows about it."

This is indeed a difficult problem.

Everyone fell silent, even Jiang Wan frowned, feeling that this was a tricky situation.

Since it was an exchange of information, Jiang Wan didn't hold back and told Qiao Ya the information she had obtained from Guan Rui and Guan Xinyan.

When Qiao Ya heard that Guan Xinyan was actually pimping outside in the name of the Qiao family, he was so angry that his face turned black.

He jumped up like a madman, pulled a short knife from his backpack, and was about to rush out.

The ocean view pulled me back to reality.

He held her tightly around the waist and shouted, "What are you doing?"

"Calm down."

"I can't stay still," Joa said. "I'm going to kill him."

“He actually used our Qiao family’s name to pimp outside, it’s a disgrace! I’m going to kill them right now.”

Haijing hurriedly advised from the side, "It's no use you going; you can't kill them."

Qiao Ya said, "I don't care. Even if I can't kill them, I'm going to stab them a few times. Otherwise, I won't be able to get over this."

"At worst, I'll die with them. I'm not going to live anymore."

No amount of persuasion from Hai Jing could change anything.

Finally, with no other choice, amidst everyone's surprised gazes, Hai Jing suddenly rushed over and kissed Qiao Ya's lips.

Qiao Ya was stunned; she was baring her teeth and claws, ready to kill.

Suddenly I realized I was being kissed.

When she felt Hai Jing's soft lips, all her anger vanished instantly.

He stood there, stunned, his eyes wide open.

Seeing that she had finally calmed down, Hai Jing breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her.

Seeing her standing there blankly and silent, Hai Jing then said in a low voice:

"Don't say things like 'let's die together,' or 'trade your life for theirs.' They don't deserve it."

"You are the woman of my sea view, and you will be my wife and the mother of my children in the future. I am also counting on you to give me children."

"If you die, who will I ask for my child back? So protect yourself and live well."

The sound of the seascape was gentle, and every word was clear, so that everyone present could hear it clearly.

Of all those present, Hai Rongtian was the most shocked.

He never imagined that his old-fashioned son would be so good at making girls happy.

Even he couldn't say these words, especially the moment he kissed Qiao Ya in public; Hai Rongtian felt like he'd been struck by lightning.

Is this the child he raised from a young age?

How could she be a little love-struck?

But amidst the shock, I also felt a sense of relief.

He felt that neither Hai Jing nor Qiao Liancheng were as good at making girls happy as he was their father, and they knew how to cherish the women around them better.

He couldn't help but wonder if Jia Haixia wouldn't have been so disappointed in him if he had even a little bit of Hai Jing's skill in pursuing women.

She wouldn't resolutely divorce him, and even after the divorce, despite his humble and desperate pleas, she still refused to remarry him.

Thinking of this, he sighed deeply.

Then he coughed a few times and said, "I don't have much information here. I've contacted people under the shipping magnate, and they are indeed recruiting some experienced sailors and captains."

"But the requirements are relatively high. My level is a bit lacking. I've only been a captain for a few months, less than two months."

"They probably won't want me, but I can still work as a sailor, but getting involved with the shipping magnate is basically impossible."

Jiang Wan paused for a moment and nodded, saying, "It was expected. There's nothing surprising about it, don't worry about it."

As everyone was talking, footsteps sounded outside. Because the boat planks were rather unique, they creaked as someone passed by.

It's hard to ignore, so I'm not worried about being eavesdropped on.

Hearing someone approach, everyone fell silent and looked toward the cabin door.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door, followed by a sailor's voice; he was looking for Hai Rongtian.

He reported, "Captain, a man named Ye Fan has arrived outside. He says he wants to see you."

"They also said they had something very important to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Let him in quickly."

Ye Fan walked in and wasn't surprised at all when he saw everyone. He said, "Did I come at the wrong time?"

Jiang Wan smiled and said, "As long as you are willing, any time is a good time. There is no such thing as an inappropriate time."

Then he pointed to the people around him and said, "You know all these people, so I don't need to introduce them. Please have a seat!"

Ye Fan agreed and found a chair to sit down.

He had just sat down when someone outside came to report: "Dong Liao has returned with the Four Great Generals."

Originally, Dong Liao and Xiao Dong were supposed to go back with Hai Jing.

But Qiao Ya said, "I don't know anything about the Hai family's situation yet."

"Therefore, we cannot allow them to enter the Qiao family for the time being."

"We can have them go and report to Dong Liao first, and then we can decide what to do after he has assessed the situation."

Therefore, after Qiao Ya and Hai Jing entered the Qiao family together.

Dong Liao then led Xiao Dong and Xiao Xi to meet up, and they came together at this time.

Once everyone had gathered, Ye Fan shared his thoughts: "I want to cooperate with Jiang Wan in order to deal with the Green Gang."

Upon hearing the words "Green Gang," Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile appearing in her eyes.

Dong Liao said, "This time I contacted some fellow villagers and friends. The main purpose was to learn about the Green Gang."

"According to them, the Green Gang was not bad in its early years. Although they only did port work, they later opened some nightclubs and collected protection money."

"But the leader of the Green Gang is a very loyal person and he doesn't get involved in those shady things. He really lives with his brothers."
