Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Fifth Master's words made Meng Chuan gasp.

Although Meng Chuan didn't know much about the Rothschild, Morgan and other families.

However, Meng Chuan had heard of their legends to some extent.

Among them, the strongest and most mysterious was Rothschild.

This family has even been somewhat deified.

However, it is undeniable that these families have almost completely controlled the world's economic lifeline.

Although their lineages are not as long as those of the Warburg family.

But its influence has long surpassed that of the Warburg family.

This is also why the Warburg family was so eager to cooperate with Meng Chuan.

If Warburg continues to sit idly by, the gap between him and these families will only widen.

But Meng Chuan never expected that these families were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

The reason they are able to control the world's economic lifeline, and even the fate of a country, is that...

It's not entirely due to their economic strength.

Rather, in addition to their economic strength, they also possess a power that ordinary people dare not match.

However, Meng Chuan quickly realized what was happening and asked in confusion:

"That's not right! Even the Mafia can't possibly stand up to a regime, can they?"

The power of the Mafia is undeniable.

However, no matter how powerful a private force is, it cannot possibly protect the Rothschild family.

If the United States were to take action against the Rothschild family...

What role can the Mafia play?

As long as we send in planes and tanks, everything can be wiped out!

"So you don't understand the essence of how this world works."

Fifth Master laughed:

There's an old Chinese saying that goes, "The strong fear the ruthless, and the ruthless fear the reckless."

"For example, the Mafia may not be able to compete with the regime of a country."

"However, those who hold state power dare not easily offend them."

"Because it can make those who hold power suddenly disappear from the face of the earth."

It took Meng Chuan a long time to understand.

Yes! No one is unafraid of death.

The higher a person's position, the more afraid they are of death.

The older you get in the martial arts world, the more timid you become—that's the point.

Just like Shadow Butterfly, her strength is to a certain extent beyond human power to resist.

If she really wanted to assassinate someone, even with the tightest protection, the probability of success would be very high.

Besides, how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days if you're a thief for a thousand days?

Therefore, supporting the Mafia serves as a deterrent to some extent.

It is also a form of self-protection.

Otherwise, why have so many gangs in the world been able to continue to exist?

Because those who can wipe out gangs wouldn't dare gamble with the lives of their entire family!

Therefore, as long as the Mafia remains, no one will dare to easily touch the Rothschild family.

"So, without the Green Gang, I wouldn't have the right to compete with foreign capital?"

Meng Chuan asked solemnly.

In fact, Meng Chuan already knew the answer in his heart.

However, he still found it somewhat difficult to accept.

This world is too ugly.

The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is not just a concept that applies to everything.

It's still the bloody reality of this world.

"It's not that you're completely unqualified, but you're only allowed to fail. If you fail, you're just a leek to be harvested; if you succeed, you're just a corpse."

Fifth Master spoke with conviction and without reservation.

Meng Chuan fell silent again.

Meng Chuan had no doubt about Fifth Master's words.

Meng Chuan had already felt the terrifying power of the Green Gang's warriors.

Eleven people can easily crush two or three hundred people.

They are all capable of taking on ten, or even fifty, opponents.

What about the Mafia?

They will undoubtedly also secretly cultivate experts comparable to those at the Battle Hall level.

If a dozen or twenty experts of this level were to be dispatched, even if Meng Chuan hired hundreds of bodyguards, he might not be able to protect himself.

But once Meng Chuan becomes the young master of the Green Gang, the situation will be different.

When two people are evenly matched.

That's when you start explaining things logically.

Because if you can assassinate me, I can assassinate you too.

The end result was that no one dared to make any moves.

The only way to compete fairly and squarely is in the economic sphere.

"I'll take on the role of young master."

Meng Chuan picked up the thumb ring from the table and put it on his thumb.

Meng Chuan no longer declined, nor dared he decline again.

It's very simple, Meng Chuan values ​​his life.

Meng Chuan can live without money, but he cannot live without his life.

Even if he's willing to risk his life, what about his family?

Moreover, Meng Chuan had finally been reborn.

He can't risk his life.

He still has a long life ahead of him.

It's just being a young master! Even if he doesn't know how to manage a gang, there's still Fifth Master!

Anyway, even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up.

Fifth Master seems to be in pretty good health.

It shouldn't be a problem for Meng Chuan to serve as the young master for thirty to fifty years.

By then, Meng Chuan would be about the same age as Fifth Master.

By then, it won't matter anymore!

"Hehe, actually, neither the young master nor the leader of my Green Gang is so cheap. If you insist on refusing, I won't force you."

Fifth Master looked at Meng Chuan with a half-smile.

"I see you're getting on in years, and it's not easy to find a suitable successor like me."

Meng Chuan said, stubbornly clinging to his pride.

In fact, Meng Chuan never intended to refuse this young master from the very beginning.

He has already enjoyed the benefits of being the young master.

And it was especially enjoyable.

Meng Chuan's delay was actually a way of finding out why Fifth Master had chosen him.

And what exactly is the Green Gang?

Now that he understood, Meng Chuan was even less likely to refuse.

The identity of the young master is like a talisman!

Only a fool would refuse!

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'm going back to rest. This trip to the capital has exhausted me."

Meng Chuan stretched and stood up.

Fifth Master didn't try to stop Meng Chuan, and Meng Chuan left directly.

Even the old man standing beside Fifth Master, watching Meng Chuan's departing figure, whispered:

"Fifth Master, you've already come clean to him so quickly?"

The selection of the young leader of the Green Gang is never a trivial matter.

The time allotted for observing Meng Chuan was ultimately too short.

"I don't have much time left."

Fifth Master sighed, his eyes filled with a sense of melancholy.

The old man wanted to say something more, but Fifth Master spoke again:

"Moreover, a person of poor character cannot possibly be patriotic. How bad could the character of a truly patriotic person be?"

After saying that, Fifth Master suddenly coughed again.

"Fifth Master."

The old man was immediately shocked.

While coughing, Fifth Master raised his hand to stop the old man.

The old man hurriedly handed Fifth Master a handkerchief.

Fifth Master covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed for a long time this time.

By the time Fifth Master took off the handkerchief, it was already completely soaked in blood.

Seeing the crimson blood on the handkerchief, the old man's worry deepened.

"The amount of blood is increasing each time."

Fifth Master looked at the handkerchief and muttered to himself.

Then he looked up at the old man and solemnly said:

"Afu, if I leave one day, you must wholeheartedly assist him..."
