Zhang Sinian was overjoyed and said, "Great, great, great! I knew it! Without cards, the bet doesn't count. Refund! Refund!"
Zhou Xuan reached out to stop him and said calmly, "Boss Wang, I don't think this is appropriate. You were the one who dealt the cards and shuffled them. No one else touched their cards; they couldn't even get a turn. According to the rules, I should have won this round!"
Wang Liang retorted, "What rules? I'm the rule here. We're short a few cards, what's the point of calculating?"
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Boss Wang, forgive my bluntness, but in this hand, you were betting blind from beginning to end. You didn't even look at your cards. When I talked to you about each adding 80,000 at the end, you didn't mention that I was playing with my cards open and you were betting blind. You should have paid half the amount I paid, right? You've forgotten such a big loophole?"
Wang Liang was taken aback, and Wu Yong was also stunned. Indeed, they were both seasoned gamblers; how could they have forgotten? Perhaps they saw too much money on the table and got too excited, knowing they were going to win, and truly forgot!
"Boss Wang!" Zhou Xuan sneered, "If you know you have three of a kind without even looking at your cards, that can only mean one thing: you're cheating!"
This is true; Wang Liang did cheat, but he seemed to have gone too far, even making the winning cards disappear!
Wu Yong, his concubine Da Mao, and Zhu Yonghong all stood up, trembling, and looked around for those few photos, but no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find them.
At this moment, Li Wei realized that Zhou Xuan must have changed the cards, and he was secretly delighted.
Zhou Xuan smiled slightly and reached out to take the money, but Wang Liang reached out to stop him again, angrily saying, "Nobody is allowed to take the money. I have three bills, and this money is all mine."
Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "Hey Wang, let me give you a piece of advice: if you readily admit defeat, then that's fine, otherwise you'll be in big trouble!"
"Fuck your mother!" Wang Liang roared, reaching for the money while simultaneously telling Wang Damao and Wu Yong, "What are you standing there for? Go and beat his mother up!"
As Wang Liang was speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his finger and cried out, "Ouch!"
It turned out that when he took the money, Zheng Bing grabbed his hands and twisted all ten of his fingers, then lifted him up and threw him out.
Wang Liang, weighing nearly 140 pounds, was thrown into the air and then crashed five or six meters away with a loud "thud." He was so badly injured that he couldn't scream or move; he just lay there paralyzed!
Wang Damao and Wu Yong shouted and rushed over from the side. Jiang Jin rushed forward and, with a few quick snaps, twisted the two men's limbs, leaving them lying on the ground screaming. They couldn't move!
Seeing that in that instant, without even a clear look, all three of his companions were lying on the ground, Zhu Yonghong was so frightened that he dared not move, fearing that if he moved, he would also end up like that!
Indeed, Zhu Yong was quite clever. He didn't make a move, so Jiang Jin and Zheng Bing didn't make a move either, and Fu Ying didn't make a single move.
On the other side, Zhang Sinian was also stunned. He hadn't expected Fu Ying to be so powerful, and these two were equally formidable. Judging from the situation, if Xiao Zhouxuan said he had won, no one else could object, and his wishful thinking would fall through!
Zhu Yonghong was stunned for a moment, then quickly retreated to the back, waving his hands as he went, saying, "Let's talk this out, let's talk this out!"
At this moment, the fat man guarding the door saw a fight breaking out inside, quickly whistled, and then rushed out.
Jiang Jin went to meet him without hesitation. When he faced the fat man, the two were like two extremes.
Jiang Jin was about 1.7 meters tall and thin, while the fat man was almost 1.9 meters tall and heavy, like a mountain.
As the two faced each other, the fat man's large hands slammed down like fans. To onlookers, if this blow landed on Jiang Jin's head, he would be turned into a pile of mud!
But imagination is one thing, facts are another.
When the fat man pressed down with both hands, no one except Fu Ying and Zheng Bing could see clearly how Jiang Jin made his move.
Although the fat man was tall and strong, Zheng Bing had already figured out that he hadn't received any training and didn't know martial arts. He was just naturally tall and strong, so Zheng Bing wasn't worried at all.
Jiang Jin swiftly kicked the fat man in the knee, causing him to fall to his knees in pain. Jiang Jin then kicked him hard in the elbow, dislocating both of his hands. The fat man was in excruciating pain in his knee and rolled on the ground, unable to get up!
Zhu Yonghong was the only one who was unharmed. He was on their side, but he didn't dare to utter a word because his three most threatening thugs were lying on the ground and couldn't even stand up. They didn't even see how they were beaten!
Zhou Xuan glanced at the group of people, casually grabbed a plastic bag, put the more than 300,000 yuan in cash into it, and then said to Li Wei, "Li Wei, it's yours now. How do you want to play?"
Li Wei chuckled and said, "Alright!"
Shouts came from outside the door, and more than a dozen burly men wielding steel bars and iron rods rushed in. They were all villagers from Wang Liang and Zhu Yonghong's village. At the fat man's whistle, they all rushed over immediately.
Zheng Bing stepped in front of Zhou Xuan, while Jiang Jin met the group head-on without flinching. Since they came in through the door, not many could come in at once. Basically, Jiang Jin knocked down each one who came in. More than ten people were lying densely packed several meters inside the door, crying out in pain.
In truth, Jiang Jin hadn't injured their vital organs; he'd merely kicked their arms and legs away. These men were ordinary people, unskilled in martial arts or combat; they possessed only brute strength. Jiang Jin could easily defeat them. After Wang Liang and Zhu Yonghong's men were all taken down by Jiang Jin, Zhu Yonghong dared not make the slightest move, fearing he would provoke Jiang Jin's vicious attack.
At this moment, Jiang Jin alone managed to quell the situation.
Li Wei chuckled and said to Wang Liang, who was lying on the ground, "Wang Liang, I'll give you a chance. Tell me, call on whatever powerful backers you have. If you don't, then we're leaving!"
Wang Liang was both shocked and suspicious. He was shocked because Zhou Xuan's two thugs were so terrifying, almost like the highly skilled martial arts masters in the movies. He had taken down dozens of strong men by himself in just a few minutes!
What's even more suspicious is that Li Wei actually asked him to call for help again. Would he really be so kind?
Li Wei smiled, took a cell phone from his pocket, and tossed it in front of him, saying, "Make a call. I'm giving you a chance!" Then he turned to Zhang Sinian and said, "Zhang Sinian, now let's talk about our business. You owe me 100,000 yuan. Tell me how you're going to pay it back?"
Zhang Sinian was taken aback, not expecting Li Wei to immediately turn his attention to him. After a moment of hesitation, he said awkwardly, "Brother Li, I don't have the money right now, but I'll pay you back when I earn it!"
Zhang Sinian's words were just casual remarks. Anyone could see that he had no sincerity whatsoever, nor did he intend to repay the debt later.
Li Wei wasn't stupid; he chuckled.
Wang Liang was lying on the ground. Li Wei had given him a chance, so he didn't hesitate to pick up his phone and dial a number. As soon as the call connected, he said urgently, "Brother Cheng, come and help me! My betting game has been kicked out by a few people. It's over 300,000. I'll give you half." "Okay, okay, I'll give you all of it. But let me tell you, Brother Cheng, the other side has two experts. One of them defeated more than a dozen of my men."
After hearing Wang Liang's plea for help, Li Wei chuckled and turned to face him again: "Wang Liang, I hope the person you called has some influence!"
Wang Liang dared not speak again. A wise man doesn't suffer a loss he can't avoid. It was unprecedented for him to suffer such a great loss on a construction site, on his own turf.
The "Brother Cheng" Wang Liang called was named Guo Zhicheng. He had a group of influential men working for him, and their job was collecting debts and acting as thugs for wealthy businessmen. He was ruthless, and Wang Liang only called him because he had no other choice, as mentioned on the phone. Guo Zhicheng would only take on a job for at least 300,000 yuan, because it was gambling money, and his fees were naturally higher than for other jobs. Moreover, Wang Liang's trouble wasn't the money, but his opponents. They were just trying to take back the money, not because it belonged to Wang Liang!
Zhang Sinian, on the other hand, hoped for chaos. If the people who came were even more ruthless and could drive Zhou Xuan and his group away, that would be even better. He considered himself unlucky and hoped to find an opportunity to slip away in the chaos.
Inside the arena, only Zhou Xuan, Li Wei, and Fu Ying were sitting. Zheng Bing and Jiang Jin were watching Wang Liang and his group. The dozen or so people who had been knocked down didn't dare to cry out in pain, and they really couldn't stand up. They could only lie on the ground and endure it.
Fortunately, Guo Zhicheng arrived quickly; within twenty minutes, a total of fourteen people had arrived.
Guo Zhicheng's men are different from Wang Liang's. He makes a living by collecting debts and fighting for others, and his men are all trained, each one like a muscle man.
