Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Meng Chuan quickly cleaned the blood off himself and Ying Die, then led Ying Die out of the room.

At this moment, Pan Lin stood alone in the hall.

His expression was extremely respectful.

"Pan Lin, a former member of the Green Gang, pays his respects to the young master."

Upon seeing Meng Chuan emerge, Pan Lin hurriedly knelt down.

Although he was a traitor, Pan Lin's heart always remained with the Green Gang.

When meeting the young master of the Green Gang, the proper etiquette must be observed.

"Little Lord?"

Meng Chuan stared at Pan Lin in shock.

Pan Lin's sudden actions and words completely baffled Meng Chuan.

He originally just wanted to come out and thank Pan Lin for saving his life.

If it weren't for Pan Lin, he and Ying Die would have been dead tonight.

As for the past grievances, let bygones be bygones; Pan Lin has already made amends for his past mistakes.

But why did he suddenly acknowledge me as his young master?

And the Green Gang?

Is Fifth Master a member of the Green Gang? What kind of gang is the Green Gang?

Meng Chuan was completely bewildered.

"Uh! Young Master doesn't know?"

Pan Lin looked at Meng Chuan with some surprise, then at the ring in Meng Chuan's hand.

The young master has already obtained the ring, so why doesn't he know his own identity?

"What should I know?"

Meng Chuan asked, frowning.

"No...nothing."

Pan Lin suddenly became a little nervous.

Pan Lin would never doubt that the ring in Meng Chuan's hand was found.

The tokens of the Green Gang, unless given by their mentor, Fifth Master, could not possibly have been found by chance.

However, the mentor passed the token to Meng Chuan without telling him the origin of the thumb ring.

Why is this? Could it be... that my mentor did this on purpose?

Upon realizing this, Pan Lin was immediately terrified.

Ruined!

Since this was done intentionally by my mentor, doesn't that mean he said something he shouldn't have?

"What is this ring of mine?"

Meng Chuan held up the ring in his hand and asked Pan Lin.

Although Pan Lin's gaze was subtle, Meng Chuan still caught it.

Meng Chuan had always suspected that this ring was not simple.

Perhaps today I can get the answer I'm looking for from Pan Lin.

At the same time, Meng Chuan also looked at Ying Die, wanting to see her reaction.

Will she allow Pan Lin to speak?

However, Yingdie remained expressionless, as if she hadn't heard anything.

"I...I don't know."

Pan Lin panicked and shook his head in horror.

He knew he had accidentally caused trouble again.

Moreover, this disaster is quite serious.

"You dare disobey the young master's orders? How much guts do you have?"

Yingdie suddenly spoke, her voice icy and chilling.

Meng Chuan was taken aback, not expecting Ying Die to speak up for him.

He thought Yingdie would warn Pan Lin not to tell!

Pan Lin trembled all over:

"me……"

Pan Lin was almost in tears.

He's in his early forties.

He could be described as a tough guy his whole life, but at this moment he really wanted to cry.

He's wrong. Whether he says it or not, he'll die anyway.

“You are no longer a member of the Green Gang, so you don’t have to abide by the gang rules. But you cannot disobey the young master, or you should know the consequences.”

Shadow Butterfly continued in a cold voice.

Actually, if this had happened before today, Pan Lin would already be dead.

She would kill Pan Lin the moment he uttered the words "Young Master".

Yingdie would not allow anyone to reveal anything about the Green Gang.

But from today onward, from the moment Meng Chuan stitched up her wound.

Her mindset has changed.

But she still couldn't say it.

She was a member of the Green Gang, and she could not disobey Fifth Master's orders or the Green Gang's rules.

But Pan Lin no longer belonged to the Green Gang, so he could say that, and she could pretend she hadn't heard him.

"This……"

Pan Lin's eyes widened, but upon closer inspection, it really made sense!

“Young Master, the ring in your hand is a token. Whoever possesses this ring will become the current leader of the Green Gang.”

Pan Lin organized his thoughts and said:

“But my mentor…”

At this point, Pan Lin, who was kneeling on the ground, clasped his hands together and raised them above his head to show his respect for his mentor.

"He is still alive, so you are the young master of the Green Gang."

It turns out that the Green Gang has always followed ancient traditions.

The position of gang leader is for life.

As long as the old gang leader is still alive, no matter who the successor is, it can only be the young master.

"What kind of organization is the Green Gang, and what is its background?"

Meng Chuan took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and asked solemnly.

"The Green Gang originated in the Qing Dynasty and is now one of the world's largest gangs, with millions of members spread all over the world."

Pan Lin dared not hide the truth and explained.

The Green Gang initially consisted of laborers at the very bottom of society who spontaneously banded together for self-preservation.

This was the prototype of the Green Gang.

It has been passed down for more than 300 years.

During those turbulent days in modern times, the Green Gang reached its peak.

The Green Gang wielded significant influence in politics, economics, and society.

Chiang Kai-shek was once a member of the Green Gang.

During the invasion of China by island nations, they could only appease the Green Gang and dared not suppress them.

Yuan Kewen, the second son of Yuan Shikai, was one of the four young masters of the Republic of China and also a member of the Green Gang.

However, after the establishment of the new nation, the Green Gang had to relocate overseas.

It can be said that wherever there are Chinese people, there are almost always members of the Green Gang.

They play a variety of roles.

However, the Green Gang of today is not the same as the Green Gang of the past.

The Green Gang used to be a full-fledged criminal gang.

The Green Gang now operates under the banner of upholding justice and strengthening the country.

They are all doing legitimate business.

However, this does not mean that the Green Gang has really stopped fighting and killing.

Having provoked the Green Gang, Arctic Fox, the world's second-ranked assassin organization, was wiped out in an instant.

Pan Lin was once one of the Thirteen Protectors of the Green Gang – Iron Hand Protector.

He was also one of Fifth Master's personally taught disciples.

As an orphan, he was also given the surname Pan by the Fifth Master.

This shows how much Fifth Master valued Pan Lin.

However, he was expelled from the Green Gang because he made mistakes due to drinking.

Over the years, he has longed to return to the Green Gang.

The Pan Family Gang he established in Beijing was his greatest act of loyalty to the Green Gang, or rather, to Fifth Master.

Because Fifth Master's surname is Pan.

"I understand."

After listening to Pan Lin's words, many of Meng Chuan's doubts were resolved.

No wonder Alice told him that they were the perfect match, able to complement each other perfectly.

The Green Gang has people and power, and the Warburg family has money.

If he marries Alice, Alice's status in the Warburg family will inevitably rise.

Meng Chuan could also receive financial assistance from Warburg.

"Fifth Master, you've been hiding your true abilities very well!"

After figuring all this out, Meng Chuan smiled wryly.

He just couldn't understand why he had been chosen as the successor by the Fifth Master in such a muddled way.

Besides being rich, he's neither good at literature nor martial arts. What exactly did Fifth Master see in him?

It seems I'll have to go back to Shanghai and ask Fifth Master about these questions in person.

“Young Master, I have failed to manage my subordinates properly, which has led to my subordinates offending you and even injuring your friend. Please punish me, Young Master.”

After recounting the story of the Green Gang, Pan Lin kowtowed to the ground.

At that time, Pan Lin knew that almost all of his men had been knocked unconscious.

He was determined to go over and get revenge.

On the way, Pan Lin suddenly received a call from Fifth Master, which frightened him so much that he trembled with fear.

However, he thought Meng Chuan was just a member of the Green Gang, never expecting that Meng Chuan's status was so noble.

Even if it was just someone from the Green Gang, he wouldn't dare to be arrogant when Fifth Master called in person.

They led their men to the hospital, knelt down, and awaited Meng Chuan's judgment.

However, because Chen Yiyi's condition suddenly worsened, he had to send people to guard the hospital entrance.

Whenever Meng Chuan was free, he would go up to apologize immediately.

That's why he was able to find out about Meng Chuan's attack immediately and rush to his rescue overnight.

"Ignorance is no excuse. You've redeemed yourself, so get up!"
