#1811 - When fellow villagers meet, they shoot each other in the back

Zhou Chen noticed the surprise shown by Shen Jiandong.

He could roughly guess what Shen Jiandong was thinking. Shen Jiandong obviously kept a distance from him. It was not that he was unfriendly, but more that he did not want to have too much contact with him.

Zhou Chen, who was familiar with the plot, naturally knew what kind of person Shen Jiandong was. Although Shen Jiandong secretly served as an informant for the local police, he was essentially doing it to protect himself, because he knew how dangerous Sanbianpo was. He would rather deal with the police than with the messy local forces.

He felt that Shen Jiandong must have seen that he was not a peaceful person, so he deliberately kept his distance.

"If I really want to leave, I will definitely tell Engineer Shen in advance. Engineer Shen took me in and took extra care of me this month. I will remember this kindness in my heart."

"Don't."

Shen Jiandong immediately waved his hand: "I didn't take you in. You worked for me, I paid you, provided you with food and lodging, this is an ordinary employment relationship; as for taking care of me, that's not it. I can see your work efficiency, and compared to the wages you get, I'm actually taking advantage of you, so there's no one helping each other between us, let alone any gratitude."

"However, whether you are asking for leave or leaving, you can always come back if you have nowhere to go in the future. If you encounter any problems, I can still help you with small matters. If you get into any big trouble, don't come back to me. I can't afford to offend you."

Zhou Chen understood what he meant and nodded: "I understand. I'll remember what Engineer Shen said."

Shen Jiandong opened his bag and started counting the money.

"Originally, your wages are supposed to be paid at the end of the year. I give you some living expenses during the week. You want to take a leave, but you can't do that without money here. Here, this is your monthly salary. I'll give it to you first. Don't tell other workers. If it gets out, I won't have that much money to pay out."

Zhou Chen smiled slightly and took it: "Thank you, Mr. Shen. Don't worry, I am a tight-lipped person. I won't say anything that I shouldn't say."

"Leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, I've been here for a month and haven't had a good look around yet. I'm going to go out and take a look tomorrow."

Shen Jiandong paused, then said, "Zhou Chen, I can see that you are different from those of us who make a living on the land, but I still want to warn you that this place is different from China. The power of Sanbianpo is often greater than the laws and police here, especially those casinos and drug lords. Don't mess with them."

"Thanks for the reminder."

"Oh, the driver's license you wanted."

Zhou Chen took the driver's license handed to him by Shen Jiandong and thanked him again.

During this month, he not only worked on the construction site, but also asked Shen Jiandong for help to get a local driver's license. Now it is 2008, and it is a relatively backward place like Sanbianpo. The road conditions here are not good and there is no convenient transportation, so driving is the best way to travel.

In this case, a local driver's license is necessary.

Of course, this is just for emergencies. In fact, according to Shen Jiandong, driver's licenses are rarely checked here, except when crossing the border, so it is easy to get a driver's license.

When Zhou Chen returned to the dormitory, Shen Xing came up to him first. He knew that Zhou Chen had asked for leave.

"Brother Chen, where are you going to take your leave?"

"I'm going to take a walk around here first. I finally got a chance to go abroad, so I can't stay on the construction site all the time."

Shen Xing was full of envy. He also wanted to go out and play, but he had an uncle who was suppressing him, so he couldn't do anything he wanted.

Now he is in charge of transportation on the construction site. Although he can run outside all the time, he is always followed by Uncle Ma and is always working. He has no free time to wander around by himself, let alone play.

Guo Limin said worriedly, "Brother Chen, I heard from everyone that the situation here is very chaotic, there are wars in many places, and the city is not safe. Isn't it too dangerous for you to go out alone?"

Zhou Chen laughed: "If others encounter me, they are the ones in danger, not me."

Even in the era of hot weapons, his superb physical fitness far surpassed that of a soldier king. He was not worried about danger at all, and he was not afraid even if he encountered a gunfight.

After spending a month with Zhou Chen, Guo Liming admired and envied Zhou Chen. He admired Zhou Chen for everything, but also envied Zhou Chen for everything, unlike him, who could not do anything well.

"Brother Chen, will you come back?"

"Of course, I'm just taking a leave, I'm not leaving, I'll be back."

Thinking of Guo Limin's ending in the plot, he patted Guo Limin on the shoulder and said, "When I come back next time, if you feel unhappy working on the construction site, just follow me and I will help you make a lot of money."

For someone like Guo Liming, as long as he is not bullied like in the plot, there is a high probability that he will not turn into a villain.

And part of the reason why he turned evil was because his mother died after a failed surgery. He became like that under such heavy blows.

If all this had not happened, he probably wouldn't have had such a tragic ending.

Although Zhou Chen has always disliked interfering in other people's affairs, he will still help those around him whom he doesn't dislike within his ability. Of course, the premise is that they are the kind of people who deserve to be helped.

After working on the construction site for a month, I got to know a lot of people, but the only ones I had good relationships with were Shen Xing, Guo Liming, and another guy who drove a crane like him.

Shen Xing shouted, "Brother Chen, if you really have the opportunity to make a lot of money, don't forget to take me with you."

If others said they could make a lot of money, he might not believe it, but when Zhou Chen said it, he still believed it. After spending a month with Zhou Chen, he knew Zhou Chen's abilities and also believed what his uncle said, that Zhou Chen was not an ordinary person.

"You are so capable, why do you need me to lead you?"

The next morning, after everyone else went to work, Zhou Chen left the Jiandong construction site alone. He didn't take anything with him, just a bag, and left the rest of his luggage in the dormitory.

With Zhou Chen's computer skills, it was not difficult for him to climb over the firewall and access the Internet, and it was not difficult for him to open a securities account.

Among the nearby cities, Xiaomoon is considered to be relatively large. In the entire Bomo Federation, Xiaomoon is ranked among the top cities, so relatively speaking, Xiaomoon is relatively developed.

There are many casinos in Xiaomo Nong, and there are also many large casinos. The former Century Casino is one of them, but it is not the largest. Others include Wancai Casino, Oriental Hotel’s casino, and so on.

Zhou Chen went to the Oriental Hotel. With the little money he had, even if he knew the stock market situation, he couldn't make much money, so accumulating capital was the most important thing at the moment.

The reason why he chose the Oriental Hotel was because he was more satisfied with the name Oriental.

In the next few days, Zhou Chen went in and out of several casinos in Xiaomo, including the casino in the Oriental Hotel. He didn't win much each time, just 20,000 or 30,000. After a week, he had a capital of more than 100,000, all of which was invested in his account.

He came to Century Casino again today, but he had just started playing for a while when he noticed several people staring at him. He continued playing calmly until he won ten thousand before leaving.

After leaving the hotel, he walked towards places with fewer people. Sure enough, after a while, he was blocked by people.

He originally thought they were people from the casino, but when he saw one of them, he realized what was going on.

"So it's you. After so many days, are you here to take revenge on me?"

"That's him, Brother Guang, that's him."

One of the men with a gaping front tooth pointed at Zhou Chen and shouted excitedly in Arabic. He was the man Zhou Chen met when he first went to Century Casino and who wanted to steal a slot machine and was then beaten up by him.

Zhou Chen had forgotten about him a long time ago, but he didn't expect to see him again. The other party even brought people to surround him.

The one called Brother Guang was the leader, a man about 1.75 meters tall. Not very tall, but looked very strong. There was a long, centipede-like scar on his face, which made him look more ferocious.

But Brother Guang suddenly asked in Chinese: "Chinese?"

Zhou Chen looked surprised: "You too?"

After learning that Zhou Chen was Chinese, Brother Guang's expression softened. The man who was beaten shouted excitedly, "Brother Guang, you can't let him go just because he is Chinese. Look how badly he beat me. Three of my teeth fell out. I also fractured three fingers, which haven't fully recovered yet."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Brother Guang nodded, and then said to Zhou Chen: "You were the one who injured Sangcha, right? It was just a slot machine, and you were too harsh. Since we are compatriots, I won't make it difficult for you. You won more than 10,000 tonight, take it all out and use it as Sangcha's medical expenses."

"From your accent, you must be from the Northeast, right? I lived there for a while, so we can barely be considered fellow countrymen. For the sake of being fellow countrymen, if you take your people away now, I can pretend that nothing happened."

Zhou Chen's words made Brother Guang frown. He said this because they were both Chinese, but he didn't expect Zhou Chen to not give him any face at all.

"My friend, this is Xiaomolong, not China. You should understand the principle of losing money to avoid disaster."

"Of course I understand, but I don't want to spend money to avoid disaster. Besides, you also said that this is a small place. It just so happens that I didn't have enough fun last time. I hope you can let me have enough fun today."

Now he has recovered to his best condition. With his excellent physical fitness, he really doesn't take these eight or nine people seriously.

"Brother Guang, why are you still wasting time talking to him? Just kill him."

Sangcha had been getting impatient for a long time. Seeing that the negotiation was not concluded, he immediately shouted loudly. The people around him did not wait for Brother Guang to speak, and they followed him and rushed towards Zhou Chen.

Including Brother Guang, there were nine people in total, and seven of them rushed over. They surrounded Zhou Chen separately, not giving him a chance to run, and then two of them took the lead in swinging their fists at Zhou Chen.

But Zhou Chen had no intention of running away. Instead, he went forward without dodging. He just blocked and then opened his right hand.

“Snap, snap!”

With two crisp slaps, the two people who rushed over first were slapped aside, and then he rushed towards the others, using his hands and feet.

A normal person, no matter how powerful he is, will definitely not be able to gain the upper hand at the beginning if he is surrounded and beaten by seven people. Unless he is caught off guard, he will definitely be at a disadvantage at the beginning.

But Zhou Chen is not a normal person. His physical fitness allows him to completely ignore the punches and kicks of these people and just attack. But with his punching strength of several hundred kilograms, how many people can really withstand his punches and not fall down?

At least these people didn't have this ability, so in less than thirty seconds, all seven of them were knocked down by him, and they were hugging their bodies and wailing in pain.

Zhou Chen grabbed Sangcha's hair, lifted him up, and gently patted his face.

"Tell me, why did you have to come to my door?"

Sangcha had a sad face, screamed, and began to beg for mercy.

Zhou Chen ignored him. The next moment, his body suddenly tensed up. He looked up and saw that the man who didn't rush over like Brother Guang suddenly pulled out a pistol and was about to shoot him.

Zhou Chen's expression remained unchanged and he was about to dodge, but to his surprise, when the man was about to shoot, Brother Guang suddenly stepped forward and held down the gun.

"Bang!"

The gun fired, but the bullet did not hit Zhou Chen, but hit the ground.

"Brother Guang?" The man turned his head in surprise.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flew over and was hit by Sangcha's body under the shocked gaze of the two men. It was so sudden and fast that they had no way to dodge and were hit. The huge force knocked them both down.

The moment Brother Guang fell to the ground, he turned over and tried to stand up, but the next moment he couldn't move because his head was pressed against the muzzle of a gun.

He looked up and found Zhou Chen already standing in front of him. The gun against his head was his younger brother's gun, which had been snatched away so quickly.

"If it weren't for what you just did, you would be dead now."

Zhou Chen pointed a gun at his head and said calmly that the fight just now did not even disrupt his breathing.

"What do you want?"

Brother Guang had a grim look on his face. As a foreigner, he could do well here only by fighting and fighting hard. But what just happened made him realize that he had met a tough guy, and not just an ordinary tough guy, but the kind that couldn't be any tougher.

Which normal person can throw Sangcha, who weighs 170 to 180 kilograms, several meters away in an instant?

"I should be the one asking you this."

While speaking, Zhou Chen suddenly took back the pistol, and saw the pistol spinning continuously in his hand.

Brother Guang gritted his teeth and said, "We admit defeat. If you have any requests, just tell us, as long as you can let us go."

"That's pretty tough. In this place, the first person to cause trouble to me was a fellow villager. I didn't expect that when fellow villagers meet, they shoot each other in the back?"

"I'm not interested in your lives, but I'm quite interested in you. Why didn't you let him shoot me just now?"

Seeing that Zhou Chen had no intention of taking further action, Brother Guang raised his hand and slowly stood up.

"No reason, it's just a small conflict, it's not life-threatening. What's more, we are both Chinese, so there is no need to risk our lives."

“Interesting.”

Zhou Chen knew that he was telling the truth, otherwise he would not have stopped his men from shooting him.

"Brother Guang, right? I am indeed a little interested in you. You spotted me in the casino, but you didn't attack me there. Instead, you attacked me here. This shows that you are not in the same group as the casino. Tell me, what are your origins?"

It's rare to meet a person from Northeast China here. He just wants to know more about Xiaomounong, and Brother Guang may be able to answer some questions for him.
