The Rise of the Youth in the War of Resistance

Then, Wang Shi followed Zhao Shao closely and struggled to make their way through the crowded crowd. Their actions caused complaints from the people around them:

"What on earth are you going to do?"

Facing the accusations from everyone, Zhao Shao looked embarrassed and responded somewhat awkwardly:

"I'm so sorry everyone, please make way for me."

In this way, the two of them went to great lengths and finally found their target among the many noisy scenes - Old Zhang who was busy at the mahjong table.

Old Zhang had sharp eyes and saw Zhao Shao leading the wealthy man towards them from a distance. He quickly dropped what he was doing and hurried forward, asking impatiently:

"Hey, little brother, have you prepared the money?"

Just as Zhao Shao was about to take out the money, Wang Shi suddenly stopped him and quickly turned his head to Lao Zhang, questioning him with a sharp look in his eyes:

"Wait a minute! How can you prove that you will never lie?

If we give you the money and you start talking nonsense, then we won't be able to tell the truth from the lies, and it would be like wasting money for nothing!"

Hearing this, Zhao Shao came back to his senses as if waking from a dream, thinking to himself:

Yes, if the information provided by that person is not accurate, and I foolishly believe it and pay him money, wouldn’t I be deceived?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel grateful to Wang Shi.

At this moment, Lao Zhang's face instantly turned gloomy, but in just a blink of an eye, he immediately recovered his honest appearance, patted his chest hard and guaranteed solemnly:

"Oh my, look at what you are saying!

We're in the business of selling intelligence, and we rely on honesty and integrity!"

However, Wang Shi firmly grasped Zhao Shao's hand as he was about to pay, and said firmly:

"If you say so, then this deal cannot be concluded.

Besides, in such a large casino, are you the only one who knows the whereabouts of Ma Qi?

Why should I waste my time here?"

After saying this, Wang Shi resolutely grabbed Zhao Shao's hand and started walking...

At this moment, Lao Zhang saw that his carefully planned plot had been exposed. His originally smiling, seemingly honest face instantly changed into a sinister and cunning expression. He hurriedly spoke out to stop it:

"Wait a minute! Everything can be discussed. What can't we talk about?"

Despite Lao Zhang's efforts to keep him, Wang Shi did not stop and continued to move forward unswervingly.

Although Zhao Shao wanted to stop, he felt the pull on his hands and had to obediently follow Wang Shi's steps.

Seeing this, Lao Zhang knew that it was hopeless to keep him, so he spoke again:

"If you still have doubts about my words, I will go with you after the matter is accomplished. This should be possible now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Zhang became listless like an eggplant attacked by frost, with an expression of having suffered a great loss on his face.

Seeing this, Wang Shi loosened his grip on Zhao Shao's hand and gave him a look that indicated that he should go and negotiate.

After getting the hint, Zhao Shao immediately asked:

"How much does it cost to find out Ma Qi's whereabouts?"

Old Zhang was originally thinking about making a lot of money, so he opened his mouth and said:

"One hundred silver notes..."

However, just as the words came to his lips, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Wang Shi's signs of taking Zhao Shao away again. He was immediately frightened and quickly changed his words:

"One hundred copper coins!"

At this time, Zhao Shao was actually having doubts in his heart. He secretly wondered whether he should ask Wang Shi whether it was appropriate to do so. After all, the experience of being cheated before was still fresh in his memory, and he really didn't want to fall into the same trap again.

However, just as he was about to speak, Wang Shi, as if he had foreseen the future, quickly answered:

"Okay, deal!"

Then he signaled Zhao Shao to go and pay quickly.

You know, this so-called one hundred copper coins is only worth a hundred coins when converted.

After Zhao Shao paid the hundred yuan, Lao Zhang slowly and leisurely opened his mouth and said:

"Oh, so the person you are looking for is called Ma Qi!

Hehe, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be having a good time in the famous Yihong Courtyard in our town right now!"

After hearing such crucial information, how could the two of them still hesitate?

Without a word, they grabbed Lao Zhang tightly, and then ran towards Yihong Courtyard like an arrow...

As they were getting closer and closer to Yihongyuan, before reaching their destination, they saw a group of people coming out of Yihongyuan.

Seeing this scene, Lao Zhang couldn't help but get anxious and shouted in panic:

"Wait a minute! Look, that guy walking in front is the Ma Qi you've been searching for! Is that all right now? Can I go now?"

Wang Shi took out a few copper coins emitting faint light from his pocket with an expressionless face and threw them to Lao Zhang casually as if throwing away garbage.

The copper coins drew an arc in the air and fell accurately to the ground in front of Lao Zhang, making a crisp sound.

Seeing this, a hint of greed flashed in Lao Zhang's eyes, but he still quickly bent down and carefully picked up the copper coins one by one, as if he was afraid that they would suddenly disappear.

When he had collected all the copper coins, he raised his head and smiled flatteringly at Wang Shi:

"Hey, don't worry, although I, Old Zhang, don't have any special abilities, I still understand the rules of the underworld.

After this transaction, I promise to keep this matter a secret and never reveal a single word to anyone else!"

After saying this, he patted his chest to show his determination and sincerity, and then ran away.

The two of them followed closely behind Ma Qi and the others...
