Chapter 617 627: Are You Qualified?
Liu Sihai's name, in the shady world of Baowan, was definitely more renowned than that of the governing guy.
When the big brothers saw Liu Sihai come out, they all hastily stood up, their faces lighting up with smiles as they went up to greet him.
"Tsk tsk, Big Brother, I must say, I see that there really are some benefits to fitness. I ought to take a leaf out of your book one of these days, hit the gym, and get my body back in shape."
"Haha! Earth Wolf, what I think is, you're just missing women like crazy. Do you have any idea how long Big Brother has been working out to get to where he is today? A good ten years or more."
"Guapi, you're right. Earth Wolf won't last ten years, hell, ten hours would be a problem."
Listening to his subordinates fawning over him, Liu Sihai couldn't help but smile, wave his hand, and then sat down on a mahogany armchair in the center.
Everyone took their seats. Liu Sihai waved his hand, and a subordinate beside him brought over a wooden box made of huanghuali. After opening it, he took out cigars and passed them to everyone.
Liu Sihai took one and twirled it between his fingers. "Take a puff, guys. This was sent to me by those black fellas, it's got a pretty good taste."
As he spoke, Liu Sihai put the cigar in his mouth, and a lackey immediately lit it. Liu Sihai took a deep drag and nodded. "Not bad, the taste is quite authentic."
After speaking, Liu Sihai looked at Crow. "Crow, why do I hear people saying you took a troop of men to Night Market Street yesterday? And you got laid out?"
"Big Brother, I've disgraced you. A hundred and ten men, all brought down by one person."
Crow gave an embarrassed smile, waving his hand. Liu Sihai frowned, and the surrounding big brothers were shocked. Damn, if these words came from someone else's mouth, they'd be begging for a slap in the face.
Everyone knows Crow is one of the Four Seas Gang's tough guys. What a joke; a hundred men taken down by one, that's not reality, that's science fiction.
"So you're saying he's some sort of demon. Alright, I'll have someone investigate his background. Either way, it amounts to making an enemy of the Four Seas Gang."
Liu Sihai waved his hand, and the discussion ceased. Crow quickly nodded, his face showing gratitude.
"I'm getting on in years, and on top of that incident with Qingyun and Jie in the land, my heart's not what it used to be. You guys are going to have to pick up the slack."
When Liu Sihai mentioned Liu Qingyun and Liu Jie, his face clouded over. His own son and brother died tragically inland, causing him the most violent blow to his life.
The first time he heard the news, he ended up in the hospital, and it took a month for him to gradually recover.
After that, he kept hiring assassins and mercenaries to kill Ye Ling and avenge his son and brother.
Unfortunately, one failure after another almost killed all his confidence, but the raging flames of revenge inside him could not calm the hatred in his heart.
Just a few days ago, he had put out a bounty of one hundred million US dollars, contracting the top three hitmen in the killer world, each one a top-tier presence, to go inland and slaughter Ye Ling!
"Big Brother, don't think like that. Your health is the most important thing. That bastard from the inland is definitely going to die!"
"That's right, Big Brother, you must take care of yourself. You are the hope of the Four Seas Gang. Your health is the path to our stability."
"Big Brother, we have plenty of brothers in the gang. If it comes to it, we can send a few ambitious guys to go inland and take out that damned bastard!"
For a moment, the big brothers were all urging Liu Sihai, the only one who remained silent was Crow.
He knew all too well that Ye Ling was the man who had killed Liu Qingyun and Liu Jie, the terrifying fellow who showed up at his house yesterday, pinching bullets between his fingers.
Send a low-ranking member who wants to climb up the ranks to kill him?
What kind of international joke is this, damn it, even a squad of gunmen probably wouldn't be able to touch a single hair on him.
Liu Sihai coughed and shook his head, "Brothers, we can talk about this issue later. Right now, we have some disputes over territory with another gang. The most important issue at the moment is to resolve this matter."
"Crow, you take some people and negotiate with the other side, remember, no matter what, you can't tarnish the reputation of the Four Seas Gang."
Liu Sihai said coldly, and Crow nodded. His gaze flicked toward a spot not far away, where one of his underlings nodded back at him. Crow took a deep breath and stood up.
"Big Brother, leave this matter to me, just rest assured."
"Leaving it to you, of course I'm at ease. Right now, in the entire organization, you're the only one who gives me peace of mind. You're capable and you can keep a clear head."
Liu Sihai smiled slightly; what he said was the truth. Crow's ability to handle things was indeed second to none in the Four Seas Gang, without a doubt.
Hearing this, the other big brothers also hurriedly agreed, "That's right, you can always count on Brother Crow when it comes to loyalty. He never forgets us old-timers when there are benefits to be had."
"Earth Dog, you're right. As long as we tell Crow something, he definitely gives his all to get it done, and that's enough!"
"Get lost, you're the damn Earth Dog, I'm Earth Wolf. Since when did wolf turn into dog!"
"Wolf? Dog? Wolf-dog, huh?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Liu Sihai also smiled, shaking his head. Meanwhile, Crow had swallowed hard and walked to Liu Sihai's side.
"Since you've said so much, Big Brother, do you think I'm qualified to sit in your position?"
Crow's words instantly stunned everyone, turning the lively venue into utter silence.
All eyes were fixed on Crow, and Liu Sihai's smile came to an abrupt halt. Watching Crow's eerie smile, he gestured dismissively.
"Crow, you really have a sense of humor. Alright, alright, sit back down. Let's continue discussing business."
Upon hearing Liu Sihai's words, everyone else nodded, though there was a new wariness in their hearts.
Crow nodded and stepped in front of Liu Sihai, looking back at the people behind him he shrugged.
"I really want to ask, what do you guys think, do I, Crow, have the qualifications to sit in this seat?"
Hearing this, Liu Sihai's face darkened, "Crow! Have you taken the wrong medicine! If not, go back and take your medicine right now!"
Slam, Liu Sihai harshly hit the chair he was sitting on, clearly very angry.
Crow curled his lip, "I don't know if I've taken medicine or not, but today, I want to ask you, Big Brother, how much of the gang's funds have you squandered because of your brother's and son's deaths?"
"And the result? Did you kill them? You spent so much money, and in the end, you didn't accomplish anything."
"Big Brother, you really disappoint me. You should know, the Four Seas Gang isn't just Liu Sihai's Four Seas Gang. You don't really think, just because you're called Liu Sihai, this Four Seas Gang belongs to the Liu Family, do you?"
What do you think?
