Chapter 358: Human hearts are hard to tame?

"You are cheating!" Boss Xu stood up suddenly.

"Boss Xu, if you can't afford to lose, don't come up to the table." Before Zhao Yushu could say anything, Master Xia said sinisterly, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Yushu became even more fanatical.

Zhao Yushu felt a chill and leaned back hastily: "Boss Xu, don't get angry. It's just five hundred taels. Take it back and I'll treat all the bosses to a drink."

"Hahaha, you are indeed a big shot in Xijing. There are not many people in Xiangzhou who are as magnanimous as Mr. Bai. I am Zang Niu, barely managing the small business of the dog hall. I was very busy before. I apologize for the rudeness."

A middle-aged man in a brocade robe and a beautiful beard stood outside the door. Every move he made was extraordinary. When he looked at her, a flash of light flashed across his face. He was a monk.

Zhao Yushu sneered in his heart. That guy's kick just now was obviously intended to scare him, and then Jiao Niang would probably accidentally knock over the dice cup.

I have always dealt with the top figures in the world, and this is the first time I have to fight with others for a mere thousand silver coins. It also shows how morals are going downhill.

However, the purpose of his trip was achieved. Zang Niu was the apparent leader of the Dog Hall, which meant he was at least a person of some status in the Cao Gang. He could use him to find out whether the person who offered the bounty on him was actually the underworld, and then see if he could follow the clues to find out what evil tricks the underworld was planning. This trip would not be in vain.

"Boss Zang came at a good time. It seems that these bosses are not willing to play with me anymore. I wonder if Boss Zang has anything else to play with me?"

Zang Niu laughed: "Of course there is, it is definitely more exciting than here, Boss Xu, if you want to gamble, you have to admit defeat, otherwise if it gets out, who will dare to play with you in the future?"

Boss Xu's face changed, and he chuckled: "I was anxious, Boss Bai is lucky, I will add another hundred taels to apologize to Boss Bai."

Zhao Yushu did not refuse, he put away the banknotes, and casually stuffed the extra 100 taels of banknotes that Boss Xu gave to Jiao Niang: "My beauty, this is what you deserve."

Jiao Niang wanted to throw the banknotes in his face. The looks of several regular customers towards her had changed, but now she could only grit her teeth, smile and accept them, and even say thank you, Mr. Bai.

"Brother Niu, take me with you. I also want to discuss business with Boss Bai." Young Master Xia stood up, and Zang Niu's face twitched: "Okay, let's go together."

"Haha, haha, then I will too." Fatty Rong also stood up, but Zang Niu raised his hand and said, "Boss Rong, just play here. Ah Jiao, find some smart girls to serve Boss Rong well."

His own people, ordinary customers, and customers he looked down upon, Zhao Yushu instantly understood the status of the three bosses in Zang Niu's mind. Who exactly is this gay Mr. Xia?

Zang Niu led the way. When Master Xia wanted to get closer to Zhao Yushu, Zang Niu frowned and took the initiative to walk to Zhao Yushu's side to block Master Xia away. "What kind of business do you want to do this time, Mr. Bai? I am not talented, but I know a little about the market in Xiangzhou, so maybe I can help you a little."

"Thank you very much, Boss Zang. This time I mainly want to explore the way. As for business, naturally food and medicinal materials are the best."

Boss Zang pondered for a moment and said, "It's not that I don't want to do this business, but Boss Bai also knows that there is a war going on in the south. Although we have food, we can't sell it out. The same goes for medicinal materials. They are all suppressed and have to be supplied to the military camp first."

Zhao Yushu sighed: "I know, that's why I said, come and try it out, is there no way at all?"

"No..." Zang Niu hadn't finished speaking when Young Master Xia behind him suddenly chuckled, "Yes, of course. If we use the route of our Cao Gang, we can at least deliver it to Jinzhou. As for how to get from Jinzhou to Xijing, that depends on Boss Bai's ability."

"Young master, please be careful with your words!" It was too late for Zang Niu to stop him.

"Cao Gang? I'm sorry for being rude. If you have any difficulty, I will just pretend I didn't hear anything."

Young Master Xia snorted, "Brother Niu, Boss Bai wants to do business, and we have a way, so why not do it?"

Zang Niu pretended not to hear and just held out his hand: "Boss Bai, we're here."

The sound of metal clashing came from the room. Zhao Yushu's eyes moved. Is blood going to be seen here?

"Boss Zang, it's not going to be another ordinary sword fight, is it? That's not interesting. I might as well go back and ask Boss Xu and the others to perform a lion-tiger fight for me."

Zang Niu smiled complacently: "If it is just an ordinary sword fight, then it is really meaningless. It is nothing more than taking money to do things. It is very fake."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Naturally it's the most interesting. Let's go in and talk about it."

Zang Niu pushed open the door, and Zhao Yushu discovered that there was a staircase leading upwards. After going up to the second floor, he realized that the room was structured like a stage, except that the stage was on the first floor, and the second floor was surrounded by compartments.

"Bosses, you don't like being recognized, so put them on." Zang Niu handed over a mask, and Zhao Yushu put it on decisively, and then found that most of the dozen or so small cubicles were occupied.

On the platform below, a swordsman and a gunman were fighting desperately.

Zhao Yushu had sharp eyes and immediately saw that both of them were skilled fighters, but the weapons they used were unsharpened. Even so, both of them were covered in wounds, and it was obvious that they were fighting for their lives.

What's even more bizarre is that a wooden ball was stuffed in the mouths of these two people, making them completely unable to speak and could only whimper in anger or pain.

Zhao Yushu frowned and said, "Boss Zang, what kind of game is this?"

Zang Niu sneered: "Boss Bai, do you know what is the most difficult thing to tame in this world?"

Zhao Yushu didn't know why the other party asked this question, but he thought about it carefully: "Lions and tigers are fierce, but those bosses each have one, so they are not fierce beasts."

Zang Niu glanced at him and said, "Boss Bai guessed it but didn't say it out loud. He is an interesting person. Yes, the most difficult thing to tame in the world is the human heart."

Zang Niu pointed at the two people on the platform below and said, "These two were famous knights in Xiangzhou before. They were known as masters of both spear and sword. Not to mention ordinary people, even cultivators of the first or second level would have a hard time getting away with them. These two are as close as brothers and have made a great name for themselves!"

Zhao Yushu was stunned: "Then why would they kill each other? And why use such torturous means?"

Master Xia laughed loudly: "They ruined many good things for our Cao Gang. We gave them money but they refused, and we threatened them but they didn't listen. They are very difficult to deal with. What a pity."

"What's a pity?"

"Unfortunately, everyone has flaws. One of them is fame-seeking, and the other is lustful. We used a little trick on them and almost ruined their reputations. They even lost their wives, daughters and mother. Hahahaha."

Zhao Yushu clenched his fists slightly in his sleeves.

Zang Niu was completely unaware and pointed at the two cages on the edge of the stage: "If the swordsman loses, his mother will be buried with him. If the gunman loses, his wife and daughter will be sold to a brothel. Boss Bai, do you think they dare not fight to the death?"

Young Master Xia patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Bai, you are lucky to have caught the most exciting part. All these people around have contributed money and effort to the plot against these two people. Now it's time to watch the show end. Tell me, is there anything more interesting than forcing a hero to become a villain who kills his friends for fame? Hahahaha!"

"The Cao Gang is really powerful!"
