Warlord: Starting with Subduing Little A Qiao

Xu Wenqiang's tone was extremely calm, but it clearly implied that Hua Zongchang on the other side was not of high enough status.

Hua Zongchang was a muddle-headed man; how could he tolerate such humiliation?

His anger surged even more fiercely.

"I am Hua Zongchang! I control the water supply for the people of Shanghai. Don't overreach yourself. Withdraw your bids now and give the brothers a bowl of rice, or you won't be polite!"

These words immediately drew a cold laugh from Xu Wenqiang.

"Shanghai's water belongs to the people of Shanghai. Who do you think you are, to be given to us just because you say so? Let me tell you, we're definitely going to build this waterworks!"

These words further enraged Hua Zongchang on the other side, who immediately raised his voice.

"How much guts do you have? Do you even know what your brothers do?!"

Hua Zongchang's tone was threatening, but it had no effect on Xu Wenqiang whatsoever.

Xu Wenqiang narrowed his eyes, his slow, deliberate voice carrying a hint of coldness.

"I don't care what you do. If you dare to block my way, don't blame me for being impolite."

However, Hua Zongchang interpreted these words as a provocation.

Hua Zongchang suddenly raised his voice, "Oh my, there really are some people who aren't afraid of death!"

As he spoke, he pulled out a gun from who-knows-where.

Just as he was holding the gun with a smug look on his face, Xu Wenqiang snatched the gun from him in a flash, while his other hand tightened around his neck, and he sneered coldly.

"I hate it when someone points a gun at my head."

This action happened in the blink of an eye.

As someone choked him and he felt the air in his mouth getting less and less, fear flashed in Hua Zongchang's eyes.

When he was almost out of breath, he suddenly realized that the man opposite him might really kill him, and he begged for mercy in a trembling voice.

"Brother Xu, let's talk this out. It was my fault, please don't hold it against me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gun was suddenly released from his neck, and Hua Zongchang immediately felt a gun pressed against his head.

As if the next second the trigger would be pulled and the bullet would pierce his head, Hua Zongchang's voice trembled even more.

"Brother Xu, no! No, no, no, no, no!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Wenqiang's gun moved even closer to his forehead.

"Listen to me carefully, you must be polite when you're on someone else's turf!"

After saying that, he gave a cold snort.

"Break his legs and throw him out."

As soon as these words were spoken, several security guards stepped forward, and Hua Zongchang's screams rang out.

His original men had scattered like birds and beasts long ago.

On the other side, when news came that the water tyrant had been dealt with, Feng Jingyao immediately frowned.

This water dam is so useless.

I thought I could at least get Ye Bai skinned alive.

Ding Li, who was standing to the side, pondered for a moment and then came up with another plan.

"Mr. Feng, why don't we seize the initiative..."

Hearing Ding Li's new idea, Feng Jingyao nodded in satisfaction.

Soon after, Feng Jingyao held a press conference.

"Our bidding for the waterworks project is to benefit the people and bring welfare to the citizens of Shanghai. I, Feng Jingyao, have always considered doing good deeds as the foundation of my character..."

This press conference was quickly written into a report and published in major media outlets.

When Feng Jingyao saw the praise in the newspaper, his eyes were filled with joy.

"This report was quite timely; Ding Li did a really good job!"

Chapter Ninety-One: Free Water Delivery at the Paramount Ballroom – A Heroic Act!

Uncle Xiang, the butler standing to the side, also nodded.

"Yes, sir, your press conference has attracted the attention of the entire Shanghai city, and many people are grateful for your righteous act."

This flattery struck a chord with Feng Jingyao, and his smile deepened even further.

"Yes, the reputation is ours. Even those water bullies were dealt with by Ye Bai and his group. We didn't even need to lift a finger."

At this point, Feng Jingyao's eyes narrowed with a smile.

"This is a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it."

"Master is wise."

……

Meanwhile, the Paramount.

Ye Bai and the others also saw the report in the newspaper.

Ever since Xiao Aqiao saw the newspaper article about Feng Jingyao's righteous act, her eyebrows have been raised.

"This Mr. Feng is utterly shameless. We drove away the bullies, but they directly stole the people's voice."

As she spoke, Xiao Aqiao picked up the teapot and made a loud clanging sound.

"Now the public supports Mr. Feng's bid for the water plant. What if this affects our votes?"

Xiao Aqiao's words make sense.

After all, waterworks are public projects.

Public opinion is also one of the criteria for election.

At this moment, Xu Wenqiang and Xiao Aqiao both focused their attention on Ye Bai, quietly waiting for his next decision.

Ye Bai remained calm, picked up the tea that Xiao A Qiao had poured for him, took a small sip, and then said with a smile.

"Treat others in their own way."

……

70157

Since returning home after his leg was broken, Hua Zongchang, the leader of the water tycoon gang, has been recuperating.

He was afraid of the Paramount Ballroom.

I never expected that a nobody like Xu Wenqiang would dare to break my leg, let alone the big boss Ye Bai behind him.

He felt even more regretful, realizing he had been incredibly arrogant to have gone and caused trouble.

Just as he was feeling frustrated, he saw his subordinates rushing in from the doorway in a panic.

"Boss, something bad has happened, Xu Wenqiang is here."

what? !

Xu Wenqiang actually came?

What is Xu Wenqiang doing here?!

Hua Zongchang's face was filled with fear when Xu Wenqiang slowly approached and then smiled.

"Can I ask you for a favor?"

Although Xu Wenqiang had a smile on his face, at this moment, in Hua Zongchang's eyes it looked more like the smile of a devil.

He immediately spoke, his voice trembling.

"Of course, whatever you say."

"In that case, there's something I need your help with..."

As Xu Wenqiang's voice slowly flowed out, Hua Zongchang's eyes widened slightly.

"This won't do. If it's all free, how are we supposed to make a profit?"

A clear hint of resistance flashed in his eyes.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Wenqiang's eyes pierced him like sharp swords, and Hua Zongchang trembled involuntarily.

The pain in his leg reminded him of his previous lesson, and Hua Zongchang finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

...

That afternoon, in the Zhabei slums.

"Everyone hurry up and get some water! The Paramount is giving out free water!"

"Go get some water!"

"Mr. Xu from the Paramount Ballroom is personally distributing the water."
