When Lin Zhengyi saw Shenghe, a second-rate gang to which Nine-Dragon once belonged, his eyes narrowed.
This organization is considered second-rate in the martial arts world.
It's a little worse than those top-tier clubs, but much better than those small clubs.
But what Lin Zhengyi cared about was not its size.
Rather, this gang was involved in drug trafficking.
This made Lin Zhengyi very concerned.
He has always looked down on people who do this kind of stuff.
Although there are quite a few gangs in Hong Kong that do this kind of thing, they are either too far away from me, or I don't know about them, or they are too big to touch even if I were in their shoes.
But now, the Shenghe gang has appeared before Lin Zhengyi.
Moreover, the situation of this organization made Lin Zhengyi feel that he could take action.
After a while, Lin Zhengyi had an idea.
Or, why not kill two birds with one stone and, incidentally, prevent Shenghe from ever engaging in narcotics again?
A second-rate gang, not too big, not too small. Completely eradicating it would waste a lot of manpower and resources, and it might not even be possible. But if it's just about cutting off their drug use, Lin Zhengyi feels he can do it.
and!
At that moment, he had a complete idea in his mind.
"How about we do it this way?" Lin Zhengyi thought to himself.
Chapter 701 Kowloon Ice Room
Ice rooms are food and beverage establishments that sell frozen foods such as cold drinks, ice cream, and shaved ice. They are commonly located in places like Guangdong and Hong Kong. Their original purpose was similar to a beverage shop in the future, providing a place for pedestrians to cool off, chat, and joke around.
It was mainly popular before the 1980s.
After the 1980s, with market competition, simple ice cream parlors were no longer enough to survive.
As a result, a large number of ice cream parlors closed down. A small number of ice cream parlors added some snacks to adapt to the market, but snacks alone were still not enough to cope with market competition, which later led to the closure of more than half of the remaining ice cream parlors.
Finally, in order to survive, the remaining ice rooms adopted the operating model of tea restaurants and added some light meals.
In the end, those that remained and survived were basically tea restaurants that used the name of "ice room" (a type of cafe).
The same goes for Kowloon Ice Room!
Kowloon Ice Room was opened by Brother Kang, a henchman of the once infamous Nine-Dragon in the underworld.
Because he was once a junior brother of Nine-Dragon and had always admired Nine-Dragon, he sincerely respected him as his elder brother, so the ice room was called Nine-Dragon Ice Room.
of course!
It's actually just a tea restaurant disguised as an ice room.
Although the name of the ice room sounds impressive, the business is actually just so-so. It doesn't make much money; it's just enough for Brother Kang and his few employees to make ends meet.
According to intelligence, Lin Zhengyi knew that after Nine-Dragon returned from serving his sentence in Thailand, he started working as a waiter at this ice cream parlor.
and so!
After get off work today, Lin Zhengyi drove to the neighborhood where the ice cream parlor is located.
After parking his car on the side of the road, Lin Zhengyi went into the ice room.
at this time!
It was rush hour, which was also dinner time, so some people who didn't want to go home and cook came to the ice cream parlor to eat.
Therefore, there were quite a few people in the store.
Lin Zhengyi stepped into the store, looked around, and finally found an empty seat in the corner.
I just sat down!
"Sir, what would you like to order?"
A man who looked remarkably like Brother Hao Nan, but upon closer inspection revealed a sense of vicissitude in his eyes, walked up to us, holding a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other, and asked with a smile.
Upon seeing the other person, Lin Zhengyi knew that the person in front of him was none other than Nine-Tattooed Dragon.
Lin Zhengyi's purpose in coming here was also to find the other party.
but!
He wasn't in a hurry, and since he was hungry after get off work, he ordered, saying, "Ham sandwich, char siu rice, a lemon tea, and some curry fish balls, that'll do for now!"
Hear this!
"Yes, sir, the things will be here soon!" Nine-Dragon wrote it down in his notebook, said this, and then left.
This place, which bears the name "ice room," is actually just a tea restaurant, and the food is served very quickly.
After all, this kind of place sells fast food and simple meals.
then!
Just a few minutes after I placed the order, Lin Zhengyi's items started arriving.
Lin Zhengyi picked up his chopsticks and first tasted the char siu rice.
Hmm, it's just so-so.
The char siu is basically no different from the roast meat from the market.
I then tried the ham sandwich, which was also just so-so.
The lemon tea and curry fish balls were just average.
It's fair to say that the food in the entire ice cream parlor was basically unremarkable.
"No wonder business is so-so!" Lin Zhengyi thought to himself.
The only attractive thing about the whole store is its relatively low prices.
The price is lower than that of other ice cream parlors.
This alone is enough to attract many students with empty pockets or low-level laborers.
Lin Zhengyi guessed that this was probably why the food in the ice cream parlor, despite lacking any special features, was still able to stay in business!
but!
Lin Zhengyi didn't say much, after all, this wasn't his shop.
Moreover, although it was just average, it wasn't unpalatable.
and so!
He finished everything quickly and efficiently, then drank lemon tea and watched the TV in the corner of the shop while waiting.
He needs to speak with Nine-Dragon.
But with so many people around and Nine-Dragon busy, it wasn't a good time to talk business. Lin Zhengyi wasn't in a hurry anyway, so he decided not to bother them at this time.
He planned to sit a little longer and call the others over once most of the people had left.
And this wait lasted for more than an hour.
It wasn't until after lunchtime, when the restaurant was less crowded, that Lin Zhengyi waved to Nine-Dragon.
And this time!
Nine-Dragon had actually noticed Lin Zhengyi long ago!
After finishing their meal, someone who sits alone in the restaurant for over an hour is quite conspicuous in the eyes of the waiters!
and so!
When Lin Zhengyi waved, Nine-Dragon immediately came over.
"Sir, do you need anything else?"
Nine-Dragon asked with a smile, then paused, changed the subject, and said, "Well, if it's really difficult, this meal is on me!"
One glance at those words!
Lin Zhengyi was completely stunned.
He then revealed a look of bewilderment, as if he were both laughing and crying.
Nine-Dragon clearly misunderstood that he didn't have money to pay the bill!
However, it is normal to think about it.
If someone finishes eating but doesn't immediately pay the bill and leave, but instead lingers in the same spot for over an hour, they either have a problem or are having difficulties and are too embarrassed to say so.
Thinking about it!
Helpless, Lin Zhengyi simply took out his wallet, pulled out a thousand-yuan gold bull bill, handed it to Nine-Tattooed Dragon, and said, "Consider the extra as a tip!"
Kowloon Cafe is not expensive to begin with, so Lin Zhengyi's meal actually cost less than 100 yuan.
When Nine-Dragon saw the thousand-yuan bill and the moment Lin Zhengyi took out his wallet, which was full of banknotes, he instantly realized that he had misunderstood.
Immediately, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he still took the money and said, "You don't need such a large tip. Wait for my change."
The bill was less than 100, but the tip was over 900. He was so embarrassed to accept the money.
This time!
"No need, I don't need that little bit of money!"
Lin Zhengyi waved his hand dismissively, then said, "Sit down first, I have something to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Nine-Tattooed Dragon was taken aback, somewhat confused.
But I still sat down.
immediately!
Lin Zhengyi then spoke slowly, saying, "I came here specifically to find you, Nine-Striped Dragon!"
Hear this!
A glint of light flashed in Nine-Dragon's eyes, and he forced a smile before saying, "I no longer want to concern myself with matters of the martial world!"
