Let them offer their loyalty
Page 405
When Jonas sharply criticized the system of Dragon City in front of Yue Yan, Ye Hua's anger was not only because of her love for Dragon City, but also because of her deep-rooted sense of bloodline. In her opinion, every brick and tile of Dragon City embodies the sweat and wisdom of her family, and every law and regulation is the crystallization of the wisdom of her ancestors. Any slander against these is a blasphemy against her bloodline and a denial of her existence.
Therefore, when she learned that Yue Yan chose to remain silent in front of Jonas, Ye Hua could not suppress her anger. In her heart, silence was equivalent to betrayal, equivalent to giving up the opportunity to defend the family and the honor of Longcheng. She could not understand Yue Yan's calmness and restraint, because in her worldview, the only response to challenges and insults is firm counterattack and protection.
"How can you listen to him slandering Dragon City like that and say nothing? Do you know what this means to us? Do you know what this means to me?"
"Sorry, I don't know, that's my problem."
In the end, Yue Qian took a step back, lowered her head and apologized, but her fingertips kept trembling.
Seeing Yue Yan give in, Ye Hua also softened: "No, it's my problem, I was too emotional, sorry, what do you want to eat today, I'll treat you."
The two of them walked out of the alley while chatting, but Yue Qian kept her lips tightly pursed and even her breathing became heavy.
Is the bloodline theory really correct for Longcheng?
Those who climbed up should have a better situation.
She thought so but didn't say it out loud. Instead, she slowly returned to the apartment.
After returning to the room, Yue Qian closed the door and fell asleep on the bed.
The two are not as close as they were at the beginning.
Chapter 595 Delicious Cheongsam Eiffel
Jonas sat in a large chair in his office, holding a beautifully bound book in his hands. The cover of the book was wrapped in dark green leather, with golden relief patterns depicting the iconic buildings of Dragon City and a flying dragon, and the edges were decorated with gold foil, making it look both solemn and mysterious.
His eyes were focused on the densely packed text, as if he was looking for something. The office was quiet with only the slight rustling sound when he turned the pages. The sunlight shone through the window onto the pages. The light golden glow complemented the gold foil edges in the book, adding a touch of warmth to the calm atmosphere.
Jonas's brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, and his expression revealed complex emotions.
He looked at the history book about Longcheng again. The bloodline description in it was similar to what Yueqian said, while the description about the longer time ago was more exaggerated.
He gently turned a page. It was a legend about the founding of Dragon City, telling how the ancient family danced with dragons and built this city-state. Jonas's eyes stayed on those words for a long time, as if he was thinking about something. The significance of these stories to the residents of Dragon City, especially to people of pure blood like Ye Hua, this is not only history, but also a symbol of their identity and a source of pride. It is also the foundation of the governance of the upper class of Dragon City.
These deeply rooted traditions and beliefs would become shackles that hindered the development and progress of Longcheng. After roughly confirming that Yue Chen was not lying, he closed the book and sighed deeply.
"It would be great if most of the information about Dragon City's history in District 25 could be confirmed to be true, so that we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to find a paper book from a long time ago. It's brand new. It really makes it difficult for Eiffel."
If I go to Longcheng to ask about its history, and then pair it with Yueqian, even if she says nothing, she will start to doubt me.
The cooperation with Dragon City has brought a lot of new things to District 25 and is extremely popular in District 25.
As for the painting in Longcheng, the ink painting art of Longcheng has aroused heated discussion in the 25th District. This painting art, which uses ink as the main expression method, shows the harmony and tranquility of nature with its unique philosophy and aesthetic concepts. The painters use simple lines and elegant colors to depict natural landscapes such as mountains, streams, bamboo forests and plum blossoms, as well as images of people and animals.
Haha, however, the people from District 25 who went to see these were all just following the trend, pointing and talking without understanding anything.
Jonas has seen people from District 25 ask the people who come here to sell ink paintings more than once why splashing ink is art, and then they start street fights.
Dance and drama are another important part of Longcheng art. With their graceful movements and rich expressions, they allow the residents of District 25 to feel the vitality and charm of Chinese culture. With their unique singing styles, roles and facial makeup, they present the stories and characters of that place to the audience.
Nowadays, these things can be searched directly on the Internet, and no one comes here to perform. Ordinary people don't like it, but wealthy consortiums seem to like this kind of art very much. It seems that they can understand it as long as they watch it a few more times and buy a few ink paintings.
Finally, Longcheng’s craftsmanship also brought unique enjoyment to District 25. People in District 25 have seen exquisite ceramics, lacquerware, embroidery, and gold and silver jewelry, but they have never seen such strange-looking ones. Plus, they are rare, so they are naturally sought after.
"I feel heartbroken when I see Dragon City's specialties being bought at low prices over there and sold at high prices over here. Alas, Dragon City still doesn't know how to make money. They first export culture, then hype it up, and finally take out a pair of antiques, make up a story, and then smash one of them, making it a rare treasure and spreading its reputation. Then, won't they be able to make a lot of money?"
Jonas put the book down. Next to the table was the coffee that had already cooled. He put it on the heater to heat it slightly, and then took it out when it became slightly hot.
By the way, his subordinates wanted to buy some ink paintings to decorate various offices, but that would be too bizarre, with a kind of beauty like coffee brewing in a teapot, so naturally Jonas rejected the idea.
Then someone suggested that it would be better to use rice paper to depict our art, which would give it a twisted feeling of red oil hotpot dipped in sugar. He was almost hunted down by Longcheng, which sold the rice paper.
Come to think of it, he asked Eiffel to deal with this aspect of art, and now there should be some results.
Eiffel sat at her desk in the office, the light softly shining on the neatly stacked documents. Her fingers tapped the keyboard lightly, her eyes focused on the screen, sorting out a series of documents about the cooperation between Dragon City and District 25. As her work came to an end, a detailed report gradually took shape, recording the exchanges between the two sides in art, food, culture and other aspects since the cooperation.
There was a quiet and efficient atmosphere in Eiffel's office. Her fingers danced on the keyboard, and lines of text came together.
"Almost done. After the transmission, print out a paper document and report to Mr. Jonas."
After finishing the arrangement, Eiffel opened the communication software and transmitted the report with rich content and detailed data to Jonas. Then he called Jonas to tell him that he had transferred the file and would be in the office soon.
There are many special features in Longcheng. In addition to interesting things like food, there are also various kinds of clothing, such as the one I will wear to the office.
Soon, Eiffel arrived at the office, and the door locked automatically after he entered.
"Mr. Jonas, the cooperation with Dragon City has promoted diversity in District 25. Have you read the documents I sent?"
Eiffel stood in front of Jonas, his secretary outfit looking a little strange.
"I've seen it, it's really good stuff, but it's a pity that the restaurant with Dragon City flavor has not been built in District 25, otherwise it would be nice to go over there and try it."
There was some regret in Jonas' tone.
There are many dishes that I want to eat but District 25 can’t cook. Perhaps only people in Longcheng know what they taste like.
"If Mr. Jonas really wants to eat Dragon City food, I know where there is a delicious restaurant. Would you like to try it, Mr. Jonas?"
After saying that, the secretary outfit slowly fell to the ground, and Eiffel changed into a very tight-fitting white cheongsam.
"Come and try this dish. Is it to your liking?"
Chapter 596 I send Jonas, you send his captives
apartment.
Yuexuan's room is filled with warmth and tranquility. The walls are covered with soft blue wallpaper, giving people a sense of tranquility. The layout of the room is simple yet full of personality. Every piece of furniture and decoration appears just right, revealing the owner's intentions.
The curtains were half-drawn, and the sunlight shone through the thin cloth onto the floor, creating mottled light and shadows. On the bookshelf next to it were placed various books, all of which looked very worn out. Some were torn into pieces, while others were covered with many meaningless symbols, making them impossible to read.
In Yueqian's childhood, books were the only things that accompanied her - even if there was only one book, it was so tattered that it was almost unreadable, and the words on it had been completely stained by rain and various dirty water so that it was impossible to tell what it said. But even so, after Yueqian finished picking up the daily necessities she needed, even if she was so tired that she was about to cry, she would turn the page with tears in her eyes and learn word by word.
This also formed the habit of Yueqian to buy some books no matter where she went or where she temporarily lived.
At one side of the room stands a white desk, on which are neatly placed a pen holder, a notebook and a uniquely shaped desk lamp.
"Do whatever you want, so this idiom means this, I understand, do whatever you want..."
Yue Qian was lying on the desk, writing on a plastic board with a pen. After a while, the words on the plastic board began to disappear until there was only a blank.
The bed was covered with soft blue sheets, the bedding was neatly folded, and there were a few comfortable cushions at the head of the bed. On the bed, there were a few cute toys quietly accompanying Yuexuan. These dolls had their own characteristics, some were cartoon animals, and some were classic plush bears.
One of the dolls was Yueqian’s favorite, a little wolf doll wearing a black uniform with sparkling eyes.
She rested her head on her hands, turned her head to look at the little wolf doll, and pursed her lips.
"Do whatever you want, do whatever you want. So those people of noble blood in Dragon City can do whatever they want to us, the lowly people in their eyes?"
At the end of her speech, she buried her head completely in her arms.
After a while, she raised her head, picked up the little doll, and lowered her voice.
"It's okay, Yueqian. The two of us will climb to the top of the Sword Wielders, so that everyone can look up to us and know that ability is not determined by bloodline."
dong dong.
There was a knock on the door.
"Yueyun, get up and have breakfast."
"......oh"
Yue Xuan put the doll on the desk, opened the door reluctantly and walked out.
Ye Hua held two carefully prepared breakfasts in his hands and walked slowly to the dining table. The table was covered with a clean tablecloth embroidered with elegant patterns, giving people a fresh and refined feeling. He gently put down the tray, and the silver tableware and porcelain plates shone with a soft luster under the morning light.
Ye Hua's own breakfast was simple and nutritionally balanced: a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, a bowl of warm oatmeal, a few slices of whole wheat bread, and a small dish of fresh fruit salad on the side.
Then, she carefully arranged Yuexuan's richer breakfast. Yuexuan's breakfast looked more exquisite. The staple food was a golden and crispy French toast with a thin layer of butter on the surface, exuding an enticing aroma. Next to it was a small bowl of carefully stewed egg custard, which was steamed to perfection and had a tender and smooth texture. It was sprinkled with some chopped chives, adding a touch of freshness.
In addition, Yueqian's breakfast also included a beautifully decorated fruit platter with small pieces of kiwi, strawberries, blueberries and mangoes, and a cup of fragrant cappuccino on the side, with the milk foam on top painted into a small wolf.
Finally, Ye Hua specially prepared a small dessert for Yue Yan - a few chocolate truffles, placed in an exquisite little plate. The outer layer of chocolate was smooth and delicate, and the inside was filled with silky cream filling, which was Yue Yan's favorite taste.
Seeing the breakfast prepared by Ye Hua, Yue Yan's anger and resentment disappeared by a large margin.
"I'm sorry about yesterday."
Ye Hua and Yue Yan sat at the dining table, enjoying a carefully prepared breakfast. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the warm dining table. As breakfast progressed, Ye Hua started a conversation and mentioned what happened yesterday.
"I am too sensitive. You shouldn't have directly refuted me there, or you might end up in a quarrel with Jonas."
Yue Yan ate breakfast and listened quietly to Ye Hua's apology.
Actually, it’s okay. She’s not the kind of person who will hold a grudge for life. As long as she apologizes sincerely, the matter will be over.
She is not such a stingy person.
"Our mission is more important. We can talk about these things later. The next time you meet Jonas, you can say that you have a misunderstanding of Dragon City's system. The real situation is not what Jonas imagined..."
Hearing this, Yue Chen's face suddenly turned cold, her hands trembled slightly, her fingers on the napkin tightened, and then relaxed. Her smile disappeared, and an indescribable sense of loss surged in her heart.
Even though we've been partners for so long, I still can't change your inner thoughts?
"Ye Hua, we breathe the same air and are showered by the same rain."
Yue Qian put down the tableware and stood up. Her face, which usually wore a smile, became visibly gloomy. "I will tell the logistics department that the two of us together may attract too much attention. I will find a suitable place to continue the mission."
She will prove to everyone that she can complete the task even if she is alone, and prove that even people who have crawled out of the slums can be better than those pigs who have bloodlines but eat up all the food.
Longcheng should never judge a person's future achievements based on their bloodline, and should not stifle their future potential because of their bloodline.
Grabbing his weapon and hiding his identity, Yue Qian stood in the basement of the Bonebreaker Gang in the early morning.
The walls were covered with weapon racks. Under the dim light, various weapons emitted cold light. Her eyes patrolled the room and finally stopped on the messily placed equipment.
The weapons of the Bonebreakers are pretty good, at least for a gang of this level, they are pretty good.
"Pack up these equipments." Yue Qian went upstairs. After being disguised, her voice sounded deep and powerful, and every word carried a weight that could not be ignored.
"Yes!"
The Bonebreakers took immediate action. They picked up cloth and grease and began to clean and maintain every gun, checking every bullet to ensure that they could work at the critical moment.
"Where's Rick?"
"Ah? The chief is now recovering in another place. He also said that he needs to replace his previous equipment. Boss, you know that another boss messed up the chief's prosthetics like this before, so naturally he has to replace it."
As the equipment was sorted, the members of the Bone-Breaking Gang stood in a row, waiting for Yue Yun's inspection. Yue Yun slowly walked past each person, checking their equipment to make sure that each piece met her standards.
She will personally lead the Bone Crusher Gang to integrate other small gangs. With the overall strength of the Bone Crusher Gang, it is more than enough to conquer and integrate those gangs. Those who have prosthetics will be equipped with prosthetics, and those who don't will be equipped with the simplest and most common firearms.
Yue Qian wants to prove herself.
"We have a big move tonight." Yue Qian's voice sounded again, and the hoarse characters wandered in the space: "We are going to attack other gangs. Do you want to choose to die here at the age of eighty with a catheter inserted, or live only a few short and brilliant months? You should have the answer in your heart, right?"
"Of course!"
"Who the hell wants to stay in this crappy place forever!"
There was excitement gleaming in the eyes of the men; burning, killing and looting were what they were supposed to do.
Yes, that is what the Bonebreakers are supposed to do.
Secret messages were sent out from here and were quietly received by the intelligence personnel of the Alte Group.
The night was falling, the moonlight was hazy, and Yue Qian, dressed in a black tight nightgown, blended into the shadows around her, leading the members of the Bonebreaker Gang to quietly sneak into the territory of the rival gang.
The Hook Gang is a small street gang whose members wear iron claws on their wrists as a symbol of their ability to grab and climb on the streets. The gang is mainly composed of a group of young street thugs who occupy a self-proclaimed territory in a corner of the 25th District, using it as the center for various small-scale illegal activities.
Unlike large gangs, they do not have a complex organizational structure or strict plans, but rely more on brotherhood and improvisation among members. Their activities on the street usually include small-scale theft, extortion and street fights. Despite their small size, they are quite powerful in their territory and show great hostility to intruders and competitors.
To integrate the gangs, we must start with this small gang.
Yue Chen's movements were swift and skillful. She had calculated the structure of this place accurately and easily bypassed the secret sentries in every corner. Her men followed closely behind her. Their breathing was muffled, and each of them tightly grasped their weapons that had been strictly inspected and maintained, ready to respond to possible conflicts at any time.
Led by Yue Qian, the members of the Bonebreakers moved like ghosts through narrow alleys and intricate buildings, avoiding the surveillance cameras of rival gangs and evading patrolling sentries.
Yue Qian didn't notice that these people sometimes made a few gestures, and their occasional footsteps revealed a heaviness that didn't belong to gangsters.
The Bone Crusher Gang's target is an important warehouse of a rival gang. According to the intelligence Yue Yun obtained on the dark web, a large amount of goods and weapons are stored there. Yue Yun plans to deal a heavy blow to the opponent here and seize resources at the same time to consolidate the Bone Crusher Gang's position in District 25.
First, they took down the place where the weapons were stored, and then slowly began to deal with these unarmed thugs.
"This is it, we've arrived."
When they approached the target location, Yue Qian signaled her men to stop. She personally scouted the surrounding environment. After confirming that it was safe, she led her men to quickly approach the back door of the warehouse. She took out a set of sophisticated locks from her pocket and opened the lock in a few strokes. The door opened gently without any alarm.
Members of the Bone-Breaking Gang quickly rushed into the warehouse. Their movements were swift and orderly, unlike those of thugs. They acted according to the plan made in advance by Yue Yun. Some of them were responsible for collecting valuable supplies, while others set up several simple traps to prevent the enemy from returning suddenly.
