Anonymous, silence is golden.

Azure Dragon, the embodiment of strength.

Teacher Huang, our expert in blasting and machinery.

Chen Xuanran greeted everyone with a natural and generous demeanor.

"Hello, I've often heard Luo Fei mention you. Thank you for your hard work this time."

The members of the Ghost Team nodded in response, their expressions varying, but all showing basic respect for the "Director's wife."

After the introductions, the atmosphere became even more harmonious.

Everyone seemed to have completely forgotten about the previous conflict with Lizard Bro, and began to eat and drink happily.

Exquisite dishes were served one after another, and expensive wines were opened, filling the entire hall with their rich aroma.

……

Next door, at Xu Hanwen's seafood stall.

Xu Hanwen and Bai Susu, however, were restless.

They already knew from the waiter that Luo Fei had arranged to fight with those thugs, and they were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"What is Fei-ge trying to do?"

He's clearly a special police officer from the National Security Bureau, so why didn't he just identify himself and arrest those people? Instead, he let them go and call for reinforcements, what kind of gang fight is this?

Bai Susu said anxiously, her face full of confusion.

Xu Hanwen frowned and pondered for a moment.

"Brother Fei must have his reasons for doing this. I guess... is he trying to take this opportunity to lure out the people behind this and wipe them all out in one fell swoop? Or is he using this method to completely intimidate these local thugs?"

"But... what if they bring too many people? Fei-ge and his group only have a dozen or so people. Can they win?"

Bai Susu was still worried.

"Call the police?"

The thought flashed through Xu Hanwen's mind, but he immediately dismissed it.

Luo Fei himself is a member of the National Security Bureau, and he chose to resolve the issue in this way. Calling the police might have disrupted his plans.

"Sigh, now we have no choice but to trust Fei-ge!"
He never does anything he's not sure he can do!

Xu Hanwen finally sighed and forced himself to calm down.

Just then, Luo Fei called.

"Hanwen, Susu, stop working over there and come eat with us! It's just next door at Xu's Restaurant, we've already started!"

Upon receiving the call, Xu Hanwen and Bai Susu exchanged a glance. Although they were still uneasy, they composed themselves and went to Xu's Seafood Restaurant next door.

When Luo Fei saw them coming over, he warmly invited them to sit down next to him, and then introduced Xu Hanwen and his wife to the members of the Ghost Team.

Looking at the group of people with unique temperaments in front of them, especially feeling the faint but sharp aura emanating from Qinglong, Wuming and others, Xu Hanwen and his wife felt somewhat at ease.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was lively, with Wang Feifei, Zhou Xiaobei, and others praising the exorbitantly priced liquor.

"Brother Fei, this wine is amazing! I've never tasted such good wine in my entire life!"

"Yeah, following Brother Fei really broadens your horizons!"

Xu Hanwen had something on his mind, and he also felt bad that he had caused trouble for Luo Fei by not handling things well earlier.

He saw an open, exquisitely packaged bottle of foreign liquor in front of him, and without thinking much, he picked it up and poured himself three full glasses.

"Brother Fei, everyone, it's my fault for not handling things well earlier and spoiling everyone's fun! I'll punish myself with three drinks!"

After saying that, before anyone could react, he picked up his wine glass.

He downed three cups in a row with a "glug glug"!

His movements were incredibly bold and unrestrained!
But his generous act made Wang Feifei and Zhou Xiaobei, who knew the price of the wine, feel their hearts bleed!

"Brother Hanwen! Go easy on him!"

Wang Feifei almost lunged forward to snatch the cup.

Do you know how much money you just drank? Enough to buy a car!

Zhou Xuan also winced with heartache.

"that is!
You can't drink wine like that!

Xu Hanwen was taken aback by what they said, and looked at the empty wine glass in his hand, somewhat bewildered.

"what?

Is this wine... very expensive?

Wang Feifei and Zhou Xiaobei exchanged a wry smile and decided to quickly go around toasting to finish off the most expensive bottles of wine, so that they wouldn't be wasted by "uninformed" people.

The two men stood up, took their wine bottles, and began toasting everyone in turn.

After this round, the two of them almost vomited on the spot because they drank too much too quickly and were preoccupied with the price of the alcohol.

Zeng Jian couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the two of them.

"You two, that's enough. You drank the two most expensive bottles, and you're still pretending to be stingy."

At this moment, Su Muchen, who had been relatively quiet and had some knowledge of antiques and cultural relics, pushed up his glasses and slowly spoke.

"Feifei, Xiaobei, the two bottles you drank were expensive, but if we're talking about the most expensive thing on this table... it's probably the one in front of me."

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to a bottle of Moutai liquor in front of Su Muchen. It looked unremarkable, with a white porcelain bottle.

The label on the bottle has a somewhat old-fashioned feel, reading "Five Star Brand".

"Mu Chen, isn't this just Moutai? Although it's not cheap, it's still a bit inferior to Lafite and Romanée-Conti, isn't it?"

Zhou Xiaobei asked in confusion.

Su Muchen shook his head, carefully picked up the bottle of wine as if holding a priceless treasure, and slowly said.

"This is no ordinary Feitian Moutai."

This is a 1958 "Five Star" brand Moutai for export.

He paused, looked at the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, and continued to explain.

"You may not know this, but before this, the Moutai we sold domestically used yellow-glazed ceramic bottles."

This bottle is the earliest white porcelain bottle packaging, and the trademark is also the earliest "Five Star" brand. In 1958, the annual production of Moutai liquor was 627 tons, but only 52 tons were exported.

He took a deep breath and said the most crucial information.

"At an auction in 2012, a bottle of 1958 export-grade Five-Star Moutai, which was in slightly inferior condition to this one, was sold for 207 million RMB."

He weighed the bottle in his hand and said with certainty.

"Judging from the condition and state of preservation of this bottle of wine, its current market price, conservatively estimated, is around four million." "Four...four million?! For a single bottle of wine?!"

"My God! Drinking enough to buy a house?!"

Su Muchen's words exploded like a bombshell in the entire private room! Everyone was stunned by this astronomical figure, their mouths agape as they stared in disbelief at the seemingly ordinary bottle of liquor!

Wang Feifei and Zhou Xiaobei instantly felt that the hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of foreign liquor they had just drunk was utterly worthless!

Xu Hanwen and Bai Susu looked at each other in disbelief, feeling that their understanding had been completely overturned! A glass of wine costs hundreds of thousands, and a bottle of wine costs four million?
This isn't wine, it's flowing gold!
Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, Luo Fei smiled, reached out and took the bottle of Moutai worth four million from Su Muchen, casually playing with it in his hand as if it were just an ordinary bottle.

His gaze returned to the window; the night was deepening, and the appointed time was drawing ever closer.

Just as Luo Fei was about to unscrew the bottle of priceless Moutai, Zeng Jian and Zhou Xuan jumped up almost simultaneously!
"Brother Fei! You mustn't!"

Zeng Jian's voice changed from anxiety.

"This wine...this wine costs four or five million! It's such a waste to open it!"

Zhou Xuan quickly echoed his sentiment.

"Yeah, Fei-ge! Even if we sell this wine, we'd each get hundreds of thousands! Who drinks it like this? Big bosses who win this kind of wine at auctions used to collect it as a talisman, who would actually drink it!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, feeling that drinking the bottle of wine would be a terrible waste and they were heartbroken.

Luo Fei didn't care at all, laughed, and suddenly exerted force on his wrist!

"Boom!"

With a soft click, he easily unscrewed the cap of the four million yuan bottle of Moutai! An indescribable, extremely mellow and complex aroma of aged liquor instantly filled the air, as if time itself had been preserved in this fragrance.

"hiss--!"

A collective gasp filled the private room! Everyone felt their hearts were bleeding! It was as if they were watching a luxury mansion being set on fire right before their eyes!
"Brother Fei! You..."

Zeng Jian clutched his chest, looking heartbroken.

"Alright, alright, isn't the purpose of brewing wine to be consumed? What's the point of hiding it? It smells delicious, everyone should try some!"

As Luo Fei spoke, he picked up the wine bottle and began pouring wine into everyone's glasses at the table. His movements were fluid and natural, without the slightest hesitation.

"Watch out, everyone, there are other guys behind us, don't let them all fall over."

He kept reminding me as he fell.

Watching the amber-colored, priceless liquid slowly pour into the cup, everyone's expression was incredibly complex—a mixture of heartache, involuntary swallowing, and an indescribable excitement.

The wine was poured and distributed. Everyone picked up their heavy glasses, but no one was willing to down it in one gulp like Xu Hanwen had done before.

They all held it as if it were a rare treasure, carefully bringing it to their noses, deeply inhaling the intoxicating aroma, and then touching a small amount to their lips, closing their eyes, and savoring it, letting the extremely mellow flavor slowly melt in their mouths.

"It's worth it... To be able to drink this much in my lifetime, it's truly worth it..."

Zeng Jian's voice was choked with emotion, his eyes reddened, and he almost cried.

"This taste...it's amazing! It's indescribable!"

Zhou Xuan muttered to himself.

The others were also captivated and filled with emotion, temporarily putting aside their previous conflict with Lizard Bro and the impending trouble, immersing themselves in this unprecedented culinary experience, savoring the wine and enjoying the delicacies on the table.

However, there was one person who could never completely relax, and that was Xu Hanwen.

He kept a close eye on the situation outside, his mind constantly preoccupied with the troublemakers' plan to retaliate.

His fears soon became a reality!

Outside the restaurant, groups of young men with buzz cuts, fierce eyes, and wearing tight vests that revealed their full-arm tattoos began to appear in twos and threes on the street.

They were either squatting or standing, staring at Xu's Seafood Restaurant with hostile eyes.

Moreover, more and more of these people were gathering from all directions like ants, forming a dense, dark mass, roughly several hundred people at a glance! Leading the group was none other than the "Northern River Lizard," who had returned. He was now wearing a black elastic vest, and his expression was even more ferocious.

The henchmen of the nine districts under the Pao Ge Hui, led by their respective hall masters, are continuously heading towards Binjiang Road! The total number is well over a thousand!

Moreover, most of them had bulging bags around their waists or backs, clearly carrying weapons like machetes! Hundreds of cars and motorcycles of all kinds crowded the nearby parking lots and roadsides!
These people had a clear goal and flocked directly to Xu's Seafood Restaurant next to Xu Hanwen's house.

They didn't cause any trouble. They silently walked into the restaurant's first-floor lobby, found empty seats to sit down, or simply stood, whispering among themselves and coldly scanning the corner where Luo Fei and his group were.

The few tables of ordinary customers who were originally eating in the restaurant had never seen such a scene before.

Terrified, he turned pale and quickly called the waiter to settle the bill before fleeing the scene of trouble.

The restaurant's first-floor lobby was quickly filled with these thugs, and the waiters, having been signaled by the boss, had already fled to the kitchen in fear.

The members of the Special Case Unit and the Ghost Team naturally noticed this sudden change.

Although they were not surprised that the "Beijiang Lizard" would bring people back, the sheer number of them still made them slightly wary.

Xu Hanwen and Bai Susu were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their hearts raced.

They originally thought the other side would at most bring twenty or thirty people, but they didn't expect that several hundred would come at once! And judging from the situation, the number of people is still increasing!

This is completely beyond their imagination!
In the special case team, apart from a few people with strong fighting skills like Wu Peixiong and Chen Fan who remained relatively calm, other "cultured people" or technical backbones like Wang Feifei and Zhou Xiaobei couldn't help but feel their hearts race and their palms sweat when faced with this oppressive scene.

Although I had drunk some alcohol earlier, the somber atmosphere had already sobered me up considerably.

As time went on, even the second floor of the restaurant began to be occupied by thugs who arrived later.

Wang Feifei made a rough estimate and her face turned somewhat pale.

"Brother Fei... there must be at least a thousand people..."

Xu Hanwen nervously moved closer to Luo Fei, his voice trembling slightly.

"Brother Fei...there are too many of them! What...what do we do?"

Luo Fei, however, remained completely unconcerned. He picked up his half-finished glass of four million yuan Moutai, took a sip, and said leisurely.

"What's the rush? The sky isn't going to fall."

"Everyone, keep drinking, eat, and drink."

As he spoke, he picked up another bottle of XO, preparing to start a new round of toasting in circles.

……

At this moment, at the restaurant entrance.

"Beijiang Lizard" is standing next to restaurant owner Xu Qiang.

Looking at the packed and menacing scene in his shop, Xu Qiang felt both excited and worried, and whispered to Lizard Brother.

"Cousin, aren't there too many people here? My shop..."

Lizard Bro impatiently interrupted him.

"Qiangzi, what are you afraid of! Today I'm going to get my revenge! I'll smash your shop, I'll even tear this whole street down, I'll take it all! You'll get your money back!"

At this moment, eight middle-aged men, each with a distinct aura unlike ordinary henchmen and dressed in various styles but all exuding a fierce presence, entered the restaurant, surrounded by a group of their core followers. (End of Chapter)
