C222 Gem Hope
Before long, a group of people rushed out from the brick building. They counted the number of heads, a total of seventeen people.
Before that group of people arrived, Lin Xiong pulled Jiang Hua's sleeve excitedly and said, "Jiang Hua, that old man in green clothes is the Zheng Tao who deceived me."
Jiang Hua looked up and saw that this old man was about 60 years old. He was skinny and dried up, with a face like a fox. His eyes were rolling around, so he should be a cunning guy.
"Zheng Tao, you old bastard. You tricked me into wanting to keep the emerald gem for yourself. You will die a horrible death."
When enemies met each other, the other's eyes would turn red. Lin Xiong couldn't hold back his anger and charged forward, pointing at the old man as he scolded him.
Zheng Tao's expression changed greatly when he saw Lin Xiong. He quickly walked up to the leader and covered his mouth as he whispered.
The leader had a square face, a large mouth, and a pair of eye-catching ears. His body was tall and strong, and his muscles were so well-developed that they nearly burst the vest he wore on his body.
"Zhao Shun, such a big commotion just happened in the village. Don't you know anything about it?"
Lee Ni looked at Lin Xiong suspiciously but ignored him. Instead, she asked the leader a question.
Zhao Shun's face turned ugly after listening to Zheng Yuan's whispers. His eyes swept over Jiang Hua and the others with an indifferent expression.
Jiang Hua was obviously very happy at this moment. If he found Zheng Tao inside the Zhao's Boxing Club, it would mean that the Zhao Family user was very likely to be the thief who stole the emerald stones, thus the chances of him finding the emerald stones would be very high.
His luck was good this time, under such circumstances without any leads, Jiang Hua decided to try his luck at Zhao's Boxing Club. Originally, he didn't have much hope, but the result made him very surprised.
Jiang Hua didn't make any noise. Instead, he went closer to Miao Yinghua and whispered to her, telling her to quickly ask for help.
Miao Yinghua nodded and slowly retreated to the back of the group of villagers to make a phone call.
"Miss Li, what happened? I was so busy with the guests that I didn't pay attention to what was going on outside. "
Zhao Shun forced a smile on his face and asked.
"This gentleman wants to ask you for advice on martial arts. The villagers risked their lives to help you. This matter is related to you, how could you not know?"
Lee Ni was not nice to Zhao Shun. They were both in the same village, so she naturally knew what Zhao Family did on a normal day. As a martial practitioner, she looked down upon Zhao Family's actions. They had long wanted to expel Zhao Family from their families, but Zhao Family was rooted in their Beiwu Village for over a hundred years, and every so often, they would send red packets to every single household to pull their relationship, so chasing them away was not that easy.
Furthermore, in order to survive, Lee Family had to take on a lot of private work, and they themselves were not clean either.
Lee Ni was smart enough to realize that White-Beared Senior must have been ordered by Zhao Shun to chase Jiang Hua and the other three out of the village.
"So, someone wants to challenge my Zhao Family?"
Zhao Shun narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at Jiang Hua.
Zhao Shun also secretly sighed at his bad luck. When he received the news that someone was coming to challenge the restaurant, he was just about to sell the emerald gems. At the critical moment when they were bargaining, he obviously wasn't in the mood to accept any challenges. Thus, he got someone to give White-Beared Senior a big red packet, asking him to incite the villagers to chase away the challenger.
He had thought that White-Beared Senior would be able to easily settle such a small matter. In the end, they did not expect that Jiang Hua would be so stubborn, and that it was the Lee Family people coming out. However, he was even more worried about the fact that Zheng Tao had just told him that Lin Xiong was the person who had hired him to steal the jade.
This made him think secretly. He knew that Lin Xiong's group was lying and that they must be here for the jade. That was bad, he did not plan to return the 10 million he just got.
At this moment, Zhao Shun's heart was not at all at ease. His brain was working hard to come up with a foolproof plan.
"Zhao Shun, let's not beat around the bush. You should know that we were playing for a fake. The reason we came here is to retrieve an item from your hands. "
Jiang Hua smiled lightly and looked at the group of people behind Zhao Shun.
Looking at the way these people were dressed, Jiang Hua could roughly guess their identity.
Clearly, those few strong men in vest were the martial artists in the dojo. Other than Zheng Tao, there was another fatty who seemed a bit out of place. He was accompanied by two muscular men wearing sunglasses and a suit. They were most likely bodyguards.
This fatty was born with a baby face. He had a teasing face and a straight face, just like a laughing Buddha.1
When the fatty heard that Jiang Hua was here to retrieve something, he subconsciously handed the suitcase in his hand to the bodyguard.
Seeing Fatty's actions, Jiang Hua was secretly delighted. He felt that this fatty was very likely to be the buyer of the emerald stone. And the emerald was most likely in that box.
"What do you mean? Do I owe you money? "
Zhao Shun asked despite knowing the answer.
Lee Ni noticed that something was wrong and asked Jiang Hua doubtfully, "You didn't come this time to compete in martial arts. What on earth are you planning? "
"Miss Li, thank you for showing me the way." "I really didn't come this time to kick the restaurant out. I came to ask Zhao Shun to take back something he stole from me."
"What is it?"
Lee Ni didn't get angry. Instead, she asked with a cold expression.
"A gem worth hundreds of millions."
Jiang Hua had a sneer on his face as he stared at the box in the fat bodyguard's hand.
Fatty was extremely nervous. He decided to leave first. Stuttering, he said to Zhao Shun, "Zhao … Zhao Shun... I still have urgent matters to attend to, so I'll be taking my leave first.
The fatty gave the bodyguard a look, then anxiously twisted his big butt and wanted to leave.
"What's the rush, big fatty? You bought dirty stuff, aren't you afraid of losing money?"
Jiang Hua was in no hurry to stop the fatty, so he reminded him loudly.
However, Lee Ni acted out of the ordinary and stood up straight in front of Fatty.
From Lee Ni's point of view, this was a good opportunity to kick out the Zhao Family people. If Zhao Shun's true face was exposed in front of the villagers, then it would be much easier to kick out the Zhao Family people with dirty hands and feet.
Martial artists all have a bit of pride. Since the dojo industry is in a bad mood, and all the dojos are doing private work, this is normal. Lee Family people do not object. But you do some personal work like bodyguard stunts, and no one cares. The worst part of it was that even if you took on helpers, you could still be considered as someone who relied on your punches and kicks to get food for yourself. But the people from Zhao Family did not follow the rules and did such a despicable thing as stealing and cheating. This made the dojo masters of Beiwu Village not see it with their eyes and they all wanted to kick the people from the Zhao Family out.
However, the people from Zhao Family were very shrewd and had long thought that they would be rejected by their peers. Thus, they had long thought of a way to deal with this situation, which was to give money to the villagers to win over their hearts.
