After Jefferson and Zhu Caihua left, Ah Zhen was quite worried: "Yunhe, you shouldn't have fallen out with them. That foreigner doesn't look like a good person, and he's a high-ranking foreigner. How can ordinary people like us fight against those foreigners? They killed people in the French Concession and didn't go to jail. They were released without any consequences!"

Azhen is just an ordinary woman who only knows how to work, take care of children, and serve her husband. She doesn't understand many things, and Zhang Yunhe has no intention of preaching any big principles to her.

He comforted Ah Zhen and said, "Don't worry, I've worked with this foreigner for so long, I know him inside and out. I know exactly what he wants to do and what methods he has. I have a way to solve this problem!"

"Okay, they came over and disturbed you just now, so you can't sleep. Go get some more sleep!"

Ah Zhen sighed and said, "I can't sleep!"

Zhang Yunhe smiled and said, "Since you can't sleep, go back and make me a bowl of chicken soup. I want to drink chicken soup. And make two meat dishes, okay?"

Ah Zhen smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll go to the market and buy an old hen. It'll take at least two hours to stew it. It should be ready by noon when I bring it over. Then I'll be leaving!"

"Go!" Zhang Yunhe patted her hands.

"Ok!"

"Wait a minute!" Zhang Yunhe called Azhen again.

"Is there anything else you want to eat?"

Zhang Yunhe opened a drawer under the bedside table and took out a large dollar wrapped in red paper and handed it to Ah Zhen: "This is for you to take home!"

Such a letter of silver is usually worth one hundred yuan, and is rolled up in red paper in advance by money houses and banks, just like a bundle of hundred-yuan bills worth ten thousand yuan in later generations.

Ah Zhen looked at the dollar in Zhang Yunhe's hand but didn't take it. She said, "I have money. I can still make a lot of money selling breakfast every day!"

Zhang Yunhe said, "How much money can you make? Take it!"

Ah Zhen smiled and said, "Don't underestimate selling breakfast. When business is good, I can make more than four yuan in the morning. Even when business is the worst, I can still make more than one and a half yuan. On average, I can make about fifty or sixty yuan a month!"

"Oh? That's not bad. Nowadays, a cultured person's monthly salary is only fifty or sixty yuan!"

"Yes, so I still have money in my hand. You can use this money to do your own things. Besides, you have broken up with the foreign company now, and it is time for you to use the money!" Ah Zhen said.

Zhang Yunhe shook his head and said, "Since you are my woman, I have to take on the responsibility of supporting the family. You can use this money for household expenses and buy whatever you need. The weather is getting hotter, so buy yourself and Xiaoya some extra summer clothes!"

"Then I'll take it first. When you need it, ask me for it again!" Ah Zhen took the silver dollar, put it in her handbag and left.

The thugs Zhu Caihua hired arrived faster than Zhang Yunhe had expected. More than half an hour after Ah Zhen left, a group of ruffians wearing black double-breasted shirts, bell-bottom pants and cloth shoes, with their shirts opened to expose their chests, walked in with a reckless gait, pushing open the door of the ward.

"What can I do for you?" Zhang Yunhe put away the newspaper and asked the group of thugs who broke in.

The leader of the gang was a big-bellied man with exposed chest hair. Ordinary people would avoid him when they saw him.

He put his hands on his hips, looked at Zhang Yunhe and asked, "Are you Zhang Yunhe?"

Zhang Yunhe picked up a cigarette from the bedside table, shook it a few times, and took out a cigarette, holding it between his lips. He lit it with a lighter and took a few puffs. He looked at the big-bellied man who led the group and said, "I'm Zhang Yunhe. Zhu Caihua sent for you, right?"

"Uh..." The dark-skinned and big-bellied man who was in the lead was dumbfounded. This wasn't right. Shouldn't this person be so scared that his face turned pale and his whole body trembled, and then put on a smile and say nice things?

The paunchy man remembered the purpose of his visit and immediately pointed at Zhang Yunhe and shouted, "Fuck, you're quite arrogant, kid! You don't need to know who sent us here, but you should know why we're here! Brothers, give this pretty boy some rest!"

The men behind him agreed in unison and took steps to surround them.

At this time, Zhang Yunhe said, "No matter how much money Zhu Caihua gave you, I will pay double. Bring your people and beat him up!"

Several thugs who were about to attack Zhang Yunhe stopped and turned to look at the big-bellied man Qingpi. It was because this man gave a lot of money!

The big-bellied, green-skinned man yelled, "Kid, your tricks won't work on me. Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? Who doesn't respect the principles of the underworld? I've already taken his money, and now I'm here to take yours, only to turn around and go back and kill him. If this gets out, the heroes of the underworld will laugh at me to death. How can I, Zheng Guanxi, survive in this foreign land?"

"Hahaha..." Zhang Yunhe laughed uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Zheng Guanxi angrily said, "Boy, what are you laughing at? Do you believe I can beat the shit out of you with one punch?"

Zhang Yunhe laughed and opened the drawer of the bedside table next to him. He took out two banknotes and threw them at the end of the bed, saying, "Two hundred dollars in cash. As long as you agree, this money is yours!"

When Zheng Guanxi saw the silver dollars wrapped in the two red paper rolls, he was tempted. That was two hundred silver dollars, and that stingy Zhu Caihua only gave him fifty silver dollars!

What's the point of being involved in this kind of life these days? It's money, of course. Who would complain about having too much money?

"Then..." Zheng Guanxi was about to agree when a younger brother beside him pulled his arm and whispered, "Brother, you have to follow the rules when you're out there. How can you ruin your reputation for a little profit?"

Zheng Guanxi felt a little ashamed after hearing his younger brother's words. He immediately changed his mind and said with a fierce look, "Good boy, you still want to use money to buy off my Zheng Guanxi? I ​​won't fall for it. This money is mine anyway!"

"Brothers, beat him!"

After he finished speaking, he reached out and took the two silver dollars at the end of the bed.

After receiving the order, the other men immediately walked over and raised their fists to beat Zhang Yunhe.

But when they reached the bed, they all stopped, because two pistols appeared in Zhang Yunhe's hands at some point, one pointing at Zheng Guanxi, and the other pointing at the person closest to him!

Zhang Yunhe asked with a smile, "Zheng Guanxi, how about we make a bet to see which is faster, your fist or my gun?"

Seeing this scene, Zheng Guanxi had a smile on his face that was uglier than crying. He immediately threw the two silver coins in his hand on the bed and said, "Brother, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding? I don't think so. The matter is very clear. Zhu Caihua paid you brothers to beat me up. Now it has become like this. How do you think it will end?" Zhang Yunhe asked with a smile.

"Come here, come here!" Zheng Guanxi quickly called back his brothers, put on a smile, bent over and said to Zhang Yunhe: "Brother, this time it was my fault that I didn't recognize the real man. I didn't check the dock beforehand. I will take the brothers away now!"

"Just want to leave like this? Is it justifiable to leave no lives behind?" Zhang Yunhe asked.

Zheng Guanxi was about to cry: "Brother, it's not that serious. We didn't intend to kill you. We just wanted to beat you up!"
