The gang members all took to the streets, causing a huge commotion, and representatives from various industries came to inquire.

He was relieved to learn that it was just an arrest of one person and would end in three days.

After the Municipal Council and the Japanese pirates found out, they first called, and the reply they received was to arrest the womanizer.

The Municipal Council of Industry and Commerce did not believe it and sent people to inquire in person, indicating that the police could come forward to assist.

Boss Huang said that this is a matter of the underworld, and it should be resolved by people in the underworld.

Everything will return to normal in just three days.

The Hong Kong Industrial and Commercial Bureau was relieved to see that the gang members were genuinely just looking for someone and had not deliberately created chaos.

The Japanese pirates are different. They are now the de facto rulers of Shanghai, with garrison troops and a navy. Their actions are clearly a provocation.

The Consul General in Shanghai personally visited the gangs, hoping they would immediately cease their activities to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Boss Huang reiterated his previous statement: "It will stop in three days, regardless of whether we can catch them or not."

This stabilized the power of various countries.

Hui Zi and Nan Tian's men also quieted down and temporarily stopped going out to search the streets.

Only Ishikawa expressed disdain and sent someone to observe in secret.

Something big is about to happen in Shanghai. We can't let the gangs cause trouble. We need to set up surveillance in advance and send troops to suppress them as soon as anything goes wrong.

Feng Deshun simply gave his subordinates three days off; he couldn't afford to offend the three tycoons.

After leaving Boss Du's house, Chen Zheng went straight to Boss Zhang's largest villa.

Dozens of meters away from the villa, the number of gang members increased, in groups of three or five, warily scrutinizing every passerby.

If anyone gets too close, immediately step forward and question them.

Chen checked each room in the space one by one, but couldn't find the secret stash. Only the kitchen and storage room were empty.

We didn't find the slush fund, so we'll give up on bombing this place for now and try looking elsewhere.

If Boss Du's family has so much money, there's no reason why Boss Zhang's family wouldn't have it too; it's probably in another house.

These people don't have the habit of depositing money in banks.

After searching six places, and it was already dawn, Chen Zheng still couldn't find it, so he simply gave up.

Back at the safe house, he summoned Tang and Zhang:

"Old Tang, Fugui, where do you think Boss Huang and Boss Zhang would hide the money?"

Tang Asheng didn't even think about it:

"They must be hiding it at home; many people have underground vaults."

"I searched six of Boss Zhang's houses last night, but I didn't find his secret stash."

The Path to Wealth and Prosperity:

"Boss, from what I've observed, Boss Zhang's money isn't at home, but rather in casinos and opium dens."

How do you know?

"Because Boss Zhang, aside from sleeping with women and coming home, basically lives in opium dens and casinos, alternating between the two places much more frequently than he goes home!"

"Give me the location of the opium den and casino."

Zhang Fugui wrote densely on a piece of paper: four opium dens, three gambling dens, and he also specifically marked a warehouse.

Chen Zheng turned around and went to these places, where he collected over thirty boxes of opium, five hundred thousand silver dollars, and three hundred small yellow croakers.

There aren't many pretty coins, only sixty or seventy thousand.

However, he found a batch of weapons in the warehouse, all of them submachine guns and Mauser pistols, about five or six hundred in total.

With dozens of boxes of grenades and a hundred or so boxes of ammunition, it's enough to wage a small war.

Chen Zheng accepted them all without hesitation.

Then go to the biggest villa, throw two grenades into the kitchen and storage room respectively, and the bet is done.

By the time Boss Du received the message, it was already noon, and he couldn't help but smile wryly.

Who would have thought that Chen Zheng would actually bomb Boss Zhang's house during the day!

Boss Zhang didn't dare tell anyone about the theft because he felt that the person who stole the weapons and money couldn't be Chen Zheng; it had to be someone else.

Last time, all the banks in various countries were robbed. Ordinary people didn't know, so how could it have been kept secret from the three tycoons?

They had sat down together to discuss this matter and suspected that it was the work of the Swallow Sect.

However, after investigating secretly in Shanghai for half a month, they found absolutely no clues about the Swallow Gate.

The more this was the case, the more certain the three became that it was done by the Swallow Sect, and it was very likely that Li San himself was behind it.

This time, the Swallow Gate dared to steal Boss Zhang's money and gun while the three tycoons were making a bet with Chen Zheng. They really don't want to live anymore.

Without notifying the other two, Boss Zhang issued a kill order against the Swallow Sect.

Since his house has already been bombed, the bet with Chen Zheng will have to be fulfilled by Boss Huang, and he can focus all his efforts on dealing with the Swallow Gate.

They even sent people to Cangzhou that same day, because that was the birthplace of the Swallow Sect, to search for clues.

After doing all this, Chen Zheng's eyelids were drooping, so he went back through the space and fell asleep immediately.

Gu Ping wanted to ask what he had been doing last night, but seeing that Chen was asleep, she couldn't bear to disturb him. She gently covered him with a blanket and went out to cook.

These past few days, Gu Ping has been extremely comfortable, without needing to practice her voice, dress up, or be urged to perform.

Aside from some minor physical discomfort, these days feel like a dream come true.

She cherished it all. No matter what Zheng Ge did, as long as she could be with him, she was happy even if they ate coarse food.

At the Huang Mansion, the three tycoons gathered once again.

Boss Zhang looked extremely grim, mainly because he was worried about the money; the house wasn't a big deal.

Chen Zheng acted with great restraint, only throwing grenades into the kitchen and storeroom, resulting in minimal damage.

The real money was stolen by Yanzimen. A year's work was for nothing. How could they not be angry!

Boss Du remained unchanged, his face revealing neither joy nor anger.

Boss Huang already knew about Boss Zhang's house being bombed, and the first thing he asked Boss Du upon meeting him was:

"Old Zhang's house got bombed, what's the situation where you are?"

Boss Du pulled two hand grenades from his pocket and said with a wry smile:

"I don't know what time it was left at my house last night, and none of my men noticed. This Chen Zheng is no ordinary person!"

Boss Huang looked disappointed.

"Even you failed, I'm afraid I can't protect it either! Do you think it might be Young Master Li who intervened?"

"Won't."

This time, it was Boss Zhang who spoke, and he was extremely certain:

"Young Master Li won't go through all that trouble. He'll just tell us directly, what can we do but listen?"

Mr. Du expressed his agreement:

"If Young Master Li wanted to interfere, he wouldn't have acted as a witness last night."

Boss Huang said:

"Now it seems that this Chen Zheng is indeed not simple. I will mobilize another thousand brothers today, and arrange a few people in each room, not even sparing the outhouse. Let's see how this Chen guy throws grenades in the house."

Boss Du said:

"I don't think it's necessary. Let's just leave the house empty, without anyone, and let the guy surnamed Chen win this round."

Young Master Li won't stay in Shanghai forever. After he leaves, as long as the man surnamed Chen is still in Shanghai, he will eventually reveal his true colors.

Are we afraid we won't find an opportunity to get revenge?

Boss Zhang said:

"No way, are we just going to give up like this? Don't we care about our reputation? I think we need to keep someone in every room, and we can't let our guard down on the roof either."

Boss Huang and Boss Zhang had the same attitude:

"Yes, we'll only do this at the Huang Mansion; the other houses will remain unchanged."

If that guy surnamed Chen really dared to throw a grenade at Huang's mansion under these circumstances, I admit defeat and will never bother him again.

If he doesn't dare come to the Huang mansion and instead throws grenades elsewhere, then he wins the bet, and the 100,000 silver dollars will still be paid. We'll find another opportunity to deal with him later.

After the three men discussed the matter, Du and Zhang each sent a group of elite men to strengthen the security of Huang's mansion.

We waited patiently for nightfall, hoping Chen Zheng would come to our door.
