Chapter 374 Furious

The next day.

As dawn broke, the cries of vendors echoed through the streets and alleys outside the Sanjiaodi vegetable market.

In the backyard of the rouge shop, the tightly closed door quietly opened.

A figure cautiously walked out.

His face was slightly pale.

Holding a tangled mess of clothes in his arms, he tiptoed forward a few steps, and only after seeing that the sound could not be heard back into the house did he let out a long sigh of relief.

"What a sin."

"I was almost exhausted that night."

"Even with my strong physique, I can't resist this kind of demand."

Recalling the crazy scene last night, Ye Shaohong had many feelings.

It evokes memories and feelings of nostalgia...

There's still a little bit left...

woman.

The way he went completely mad, abandoning everything, was truly terrifying.

However, he truly enjoyed it.

If it weren't for the very important matters he needed to handle personally today, Ye Shaohong wouldn't want to leave this haven of gentle comforts, this graveyard of heroes, even if he was physically and mentally exhausted.

"Each session lasted more than forty minutes, and there were seven sessions in total..."

"I need to be more restrained in the future."

Ye Shaohong rubbed his lower back, which wasn't sore, and smiled again. Then, he abruptly tossed aside the clothes in his arms and began to dress as he walked forward. He opened the door of the rouge shop and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching, quietly slipped out.

Immediately after entering the triangular vegetable market, Ye Shaohong turned into a breakfast stall.

I sat by the window, eating Shanghai-style breakfast while staring at the street ahead.

After a while.

Two newspaper boys, around twelve or thirteen years old, came over.

"Look at the newspaper, look at the newspaper! The eldest son of the wealthy Saxon family of John Bull has been kidnapped..."

"The kidnappers are demanding a ransom of five million US dollars, and the identity of the killer remains a mystery..."

"The Saxon family has issued a huge reward for information leading to the whereabouts of the kidnappers..."

The newsboy's innocent shouts rang out, reaching the breakfast stall and immediately attracting everyone's attention. "What's going on? A ransom of five million dollars? This kidnapper has a huge appetite!"

"Are the Sa Xun family the owners of the Peace Hotel?"

"How much is the huge bounty?"

Amid the murmurs, two gangsters who were sitting in a breakfast stall eating wontons immediately perked up. They straightened their backs and raised their hands.

"Kid, give me a newspaper."

"Here you are, sir. A newspaper costs one cent."

"Take it."

A gangster pulled a silver dollar from his pocket, tossed it to the newsboy, and eagerly began to read the newspaper.

Immediately, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Damn it, I forgot."

"I can't read, brother. Can you?" "Damn it, if you can't read, why are you buying newspapers? All I can do is write my own name."

The two were talking as if no one else was around, which made everyone in the breakfast stall almost burst out laughing. Everyone turned around to look at the two clowns.

In return, they were met with the fierce and menacing gazes of two gangsters.

"What are you looking at?"

"If you keep watching, believe me or not I'll gouge out your dog eyes."

If these two hadn't been shouting, it would have been fine, but their shouting only added to the comical atmosphere.

Ye Shaohong also laughed.

Unlike the others, he didn't turn around and look at the two gangsters while joking.

Because he had already observed the people in the breakfast stall before even entering.

He had already planned it all out. After a brief moment of laughter, Ye Shaohong didn't forget his business.

He raised his hand to stop the newsboy who was about to leave, and silently handed him a dime. The newsboy's face lit up with joy, and he immediately pulled a newspaper from the cloth bag hanging at his waist and placed it in Ye Shaohong's hand.

"Sir, please take this!"

Ye Shaohong nodded, casually unfolded the newspaper, and placed it on the table.

While eating a breakfast unique to Shanghai, he carefully flipped through the newspaper and soon found the headline on the front page.

Special report on the kidnapping case of the Saxon family.

The specific content is nothing special.

Because this information was all sent out by someone he had instructed Li Yunlong to do yesterday.

However, the newspaper editors had made some embellishments and assumptions in this report. But one point did catch Ye Shaohong's attention.

That was the author of this report. His writing subtly revealed his approval of the situation, and it was clear that he had no fondness for the so-called wealthy Sha Xun family in Shanghai.

While reading the newspaper, Ye Shaohong also made sure to listen to the conversations of those around him.

These ordinary people were clearly unaware of the numerous crimes committed by the Saxon family.

They were still shocked by the exorbitant ransom demanded by the kidnappers and Xiong's brutal and ruthless behavior. Some greedy individuals were whispering among themselves, discussing whether there was any chance to find the kidnappers and obtain the huge reward from the Sha Xun family.

Ye Shaohong could only shake his head and sigh at this.

He wasn't lamenting the ignorance of the people, but rather sighing at their shortsightedness.

The Saxon family did not issue any bounty at all.

All of this was arranged by Ye Shaohong to be done by Li Yunlong, with only one purpose: to make this matter a big fuss in the shortest amount of time and on the largest scale.

It became common knowledge.

Judging from the current results, the effect is quite good.

As the news of the kidnapping of the eldest son of the Saxon family spread through the newspapers, it gradually became known.

The Saxon family is indeed a prominent family in John Bull.

They wield considerable power.

However, a large family also has a huge drawback, namely that they must care about their reputation.

Seeing that the ransom was too high, Johnson Saxon did not want to make a losing deal and wanted to abandon his own bloodline.

Ye Shaohong couldn't let him have his way.

Now that the news has spread, the nature of the kidnapping of the third generation of the Sha Xun family has changed.

It's no longer just a simple case of their family's third generation being kidnapped.

It also concerns the reputation of their family.

For the sake of his reputation, Johnson Shawn had no choice but to accept Ye Shaohong's extortion, no matter how unwilling he was.

He had to actively walk into the trap Ye Shaohong had set for him.

This is a strategy that existed in ancient China.

With overwhelming momentum, we can reverse the situation.

Things unfolded exactly as Ye Shaohong had predicted.

After leaving the breakfast shop, Ye Shaohong found Li Yunlong, and the two disguised themselves once again and entered the Japanese concession.

He randomly found an empty room, pried open the door, and made a phone call into Johnson Saxon's office.

Johnson Saxon was already waiting by the telephone.

After answering the phone, Johnson Saxon didn't even wait for Ye Shaohong to say his name or purpose before he started cursing on the other end of the line.

"You devil."

"Satan!"

"What exactly do you want to do?"
