Do you need me to call someone?
Hou Zhenhan’s face couldn’t help but become serious.
You don’t need to… They’re just two little thieves. It’s nothing too serious.
Yang Ming smiled and waved his hand.
Just now I didn’t get enough beating up the one with the surname Wan. I can look for them downstairs to train myself!
Okay!
Hou Zhenhan knew about Yang Ming’s skill, so he didn’t need to worry.
Old Buffon was really mistreated today! He came with his subsidiary’s chairman, Frank, to Song Jiang for a holiday abroad. He thought he would be able to enjoy it, but he didn’t know how these two desperadoes got the news of him being a rich person. Hence, there was such a scene.
Old Buffon was the patriarch of a big family in Europe today. Although the family didn’t get a lot of publicity, many large European companies were secretly controlled by the Buffon Family.
For example, Frank’s Lutong Automobile Group was controlled by Old Buffon’s family. This wasn’t surprising at all. This kind of situation was also happening in China.
It was said that the chairman of one of Frank’s domestic subsidiaries here in China invited Frank to come here for a holiday. Frank wanted to court Old Buffon’s favor, so he brought Old Buffon along.
Old Buffon saw Marco Polo’s travels in his early years, therefore, he was very interested in the culture and customs of China. Therefore, he followed Frank to Song Jiang.
Frank was an old drunkard. The top executives who he brought here were also drunkards. After they came here, other than drinking they were just playing. Although Old Buffon didn’t like to drink, he came out to play anyway. Moreover, it wasn’t appropriate for him to interfere with Frank. After all, it was a holiday instead of work, and it wasn’t appropriate for Old Buffon to interfere in these matters.
Therefore, Frank was drinking with China’s representatives all day in the hotel while Old Buffon was casually strolling on the street, enjoying the local customs.
Originally, there were bodyguards following Old Buffon every day. However, today, Old Buffon spontaneously wanted to take a walk around the hotel in the morning, so he didn’t inform the bodyguards to follow him.
He didn’t expect that just by walking around the hotel an accident would happen! Talking about it, this had to be blamed on Old Buffon. Old Buffon saw an old man practicing with his sword not far away in the woods. Moreover, Old Buffon was a fan of Chinese Kung Fu. It was to the extent where he was obsessive about it. At home, he had watched The Legend of The Condor Heroes, The Romance of the Condor Heroes, and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils [1] a few times already.
Moreover, he also gathered a ton of martial arts guides to study at home. Although there was not much result, he enjoyed himself thoroughly with it.
Today, when he saw this old man practicing his sword, he wanted to have a closer look. Old Buffon didn’t know much about China’s culture. After watching plenty of historical TV shows [1], he thought that there were still some martial arts masters in China who would know how to climb the roof and walk on the wall, and assassinate with concealed weapons!
Old Buffon walked to the vicinity of the old man and looked at the old man who practiced the sword in amazement. Suddenly, two men rushed up to control the Old Buffon directly. Just as Old Buffon wanted to call for help, Zhang Hunan with an aquiline nose covered his mouth.
Old Buffon was terrified when he knew that he was being held hostage by the bad guys. He had his last hope on the old man who practiced the sword. He hoped that the old man would act like a hero on TV to serve justice, and beat up these two people in front of him until they were utterly defeated!
However, to Old Buffon’s disappointment, not only did the old man not save him, but the old man was standing there trembling! It was no wonder too. The old man was just here to exercise his body. He was okay to play with his Tai Chi sword, but when it came to fighting, he wouldn’t know how!
Amid Old Buffon’s disappointment, he also started to have doubts about Chinese Kung Fu. Could it be that those were all special effects in the film? Were those only legends? Just for show?
He thought this although some people had already told Old Buffon in the past that there wasn’t anything like hitting acupoints, hidden weapons, and so on. Those were all lies.
However, there used to be an old Chinese doctor who told Old Buffon that hitting the acupoint was also valid from the perspective of Chinese medicine. Therefore, Old Buffon firmly believed that there must be some exceptional individuals in the land of China.
Old Buffon was kidnapped. Zhang Hunan and Zheng Xubang… let’s call them that at the moment because these were their pseudonyms. The two men caught Old Buffon and brought him to the Nightless Club. There were not many other reasons other than that they knew that this was Bao Sanli’s site, so in comparison, it would certainly be safer. There would not be any police who came here for inspection.
Zhang Hunan and Zheng Xubang were two rogue criminals who kidnapped the son of a big boss in the South and wanted to make some cash. However, they didn’t expect this big boss to not care about it at all. He didn’t even inquire about his son. Therefore, the two of them killed the hostage in anger.
It was later that they discovered that this son was only an adopted son of the big boss. The big boss already had several adopted children. When Zhang Hunan and Zheng Xubang found out the truth, they were really angry. With no choice, it was a fact that the two of them killed someone. No matter who it was, it was not right to murder someone.
After being wanted by the police, the two men began to flee. The most annoying thing was that they hadn’t gotten even a penny yet. Even the money for their escape was not enough! They fled from the South to Song Jiang and then strolled around the Moon Island Hotel to look for an opportunity to make money. Then coincidentally they came across Old Buffon.
Since there were two bodyguards with Old Buffon, Zhang Yunan and Zheng Xubang came to an agreement that this foreigner must be very rich, otherwise, he couldn’t afford the bodyguards in the first place!
Therefore, the two men looked for opportunities to kidnap the old man so that they could extort some money for them to escape. Otherwise, the two people really couldn’t survive anymore! After staying by the entrance of the Moon Island Hotel for two days, they finally found the opportunity where Old Buffon was walking alone.
When the two people saw Old Buffon coming to the woods, why would they hesitate? They rushed to catch Old Buffon right away!
Moreover, the two people were not afraid that Old Buffon would see their faces and lodge another police report. There was no need to hide anymore since the two people were already criminals wanted by the police!
Old Buffon had been knocked out, and no one tried to save him. Zhang Hunan and Zheng Xubang brought Old Buffon to the Nightless Club smoothly.
People who were in the underworld naturally had their own channels for inquiring about information. They knew that the head of underworld in Song Jiang was Bao Sanli, and the Nightless Club belonged to him, too. Therefore, they decided to bring Old Buffon to a private room in the Nightless Club together.
In the private room, Old Buffon suffered from some inhumane torture. How come? These two people one-sidedly thought that Old Buffon certainly didn’t understand Chinese as a foreigner. In order to make him feel afraid so that he didn’t resist later, they started giving him a huge beating without saying anything.
Zhang Hunan and Zheng Xubang were both from the underworld, so they were good at fighting. Therefore, beating up Old Buffon was easy and enjoyable. Even though Old Buffon learned a bunch of martial arts poses from the TV, it didn’t have any practical use. It didn’t take long for him to be knocked to the ground.
Therefore, that was the scene that Yang Ming heard before.
Old Buffon had been beaten until his thinking was unclear. How would he know that the two men would start beating him up without saying anything? After being beaten up with a swollen face, only then did he cry and shout,
Spare me… Gentlemen, please spare me…!
You can speak Chinese?
Zhang Hunan was stunned.
Yes– Yes– the two gentlemen, please spare my life…
Old Buffon liked Chinese Kung Fu. In order to study Chinese Kung Fu, he naturally needed to learn Chinese. In addition, he usually watched a lot of Chinese martial arts dramas, so he was very fluent in speaking Chinese.
Then that would be easy!
Zheng Xubang and Zhang Hunan stopped attacking, and then said to Old Buffon,
Do you know why we captured you?
Gentlemen… gentlemen, don’t beat me up anymore. Why did you guys catch me?
Old Buffon’s tone was like a minor character in the drama series.
We, brothers, belong to the underworld. We have nowhere to go recently, and we’re out of money to escape.
Zhang Hunan said,
It looks like you have a lot of money, so let’s do it this way. You give us a sum of money, and then we’ll let you go!
This… How much do you both want?
Old Buffon wasn’t a fool. This was a foreign country. Even if he took out his money, would these two people let him go? He had seen too many cases of kidnappers getting the money and killing the hostage!
Hehe
, looking at you old man, you seem pretty rich. We want a million…
Zhang Hunan just opened his mouth and he was interrupted by Zheng Xubang.
One million US dollars!
Zheng Xubang was afraid that Zhang Hunan asked for too little! This old man was a foreigner, so he won’t be the same as the rich men from the south! The asking price for a rich man was one million yuan, but the price for the foreign old man became US dollars!
Gentlemen, I don’t have US dollars…
Old Buffon planned to delay the time with the two men. He hoped that Frank and the rest would realize that he had disappeared, and then call the police to find him!
Bullsht!
Zhang Hunan scolded,
You’re a foreigner. How would you not have any US dollars?
I came from Europe. Why would I have US dollars?
Old Buffon said helplessly.
Europe? Europe doesn’t use US dollars?
Zhang Yunan scratched his head.
Europe uses the euro. It’s worth more than the US dollar!
Zheng Xubang’s exposure was a lot more than Zhang Hunan’s.
Then one million euro!
