A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 333 A Pleasant Atmosphere

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Da sat down in a chair with an expression of utmost respect on his face and said in a low voice, "Falcon is indeed Falcon; he always keeps his word."

He then took out a pen and paper and began to write.

At Jinqiao Villa, Chao Bufan, Lao Tang, and others sat on the sofa.

Old Tang said, "Bufan, I just spoke with the Chairman on the phone and told him about this. The boss said he wants to commend everyone in your anti-drug team!"

Chao Bufan smiled and said, "There's nothing to reward for this."

Su Wenlong said, "What are you saying? The Chairman has already given his word. When the Chairman speaks, his word is law!"

Chao Bufan smiled slightly, then his expression turned serious. He said, "Old Tang, I've already taken care of Charlie and the others. Now I'm worried about something."

Old Tang asked, "What is it?"

Chao Bufan pondered for a moment, then said, "I'm worried that these countries won't let this go. They'll definitely take bigger actions next."

Upon hearing this, Lao Tang and Su Wenlong frowned, their expressions turning serious. Lao Tang said, "As long as they dare to set foot in HX, we will kill as many as they come. HX is a great nation, why should we be afraid of a few clowns?"

Chao Bufan shook his head and gave a wry smile, saying, "It's not as simple as you think."

Old Tang's expression was extremely serious as he asked, "Bufan, do you have any countermeasures?"

Chao Bufan let out a long sigh and said, "Old Tang, if it's a military matter, you should know better than me how to handle it. As for other matters, to be honest, I can only deal with things as they come."

Old Tang nodded and said, "It seems we need to make more preparations."

Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "That's your business. Don't drag me into it, or I'll get really angry with you."

Hearing this, Old Tang rolled his eyes and said, "You brat, all you know how to do is talk sarcastic remarks. You used to be someone..."

Chao Bufan chimed in, "You're a soldier, right? Old Tang, you know what? I'm really regretting it now."

Old Tang asked, "Regret what?"

Chao Bufan smiled and said, "I regret agreeing to work for Tang's Group. What a load of crap, what kind of president is he? Bah! You old geezers are always finding ways to set traps for me to fall into. Do you think I don't know your and the old chief's petty schemes?"

Upon hearing this, Old Tang chuckled and said, "You can't say that. When have we ever set a trap for you to fall into? It's all..."

"Bullshit! Old Tang, you all know in your hearts whether it's true or not. If it weren't for Qianqian, I would have run away long ago."

"You brat, don't you think it's too late to say that now? Even if you fly to the ends of the earth, you still can't escape my grasp."

The old leader's voice rang out from outside, and before he finished speaking, he was already standing in front of Chao Bufan.

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "You are not the Buddha, and I am not Sun Wukong. If I really wanted to disappear, would you be able to find me?"

The old leader sat on the sofa and laughed, "You brat, aren't you doing pretty well now? You have everything you want, even a whole bunch of beautiful women. With your treatment, tell me, who can compare to you? We've agreed to every single request you've made. Aren't you satisfied?"

Chao Bufan said in a serious tone, "Old Chief, what are you saying? I'm still young, and I have a long road ahead of me!"

The old commander scolded, "You brat, just say what you have to say. Don't beat around the bush. I'm too lazy to argue with you."

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "Old Chief, what are you talking about? Why am I beating around the bush with you?"

Old Tang and the others immediately burst into laughter. The old commander glared at Chao Bufan and scolded, "You brat, I know what you ate just by the time you fart. Hurry up and let it out."

Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "Old Chief, you said it yourself! Alright then, I'll get straight to the point! Old Chief, I'm a little short on cash right now, so you guys...?"

"No way," Old Tang and the old commander said firmly in unison.

Chao Bufan laughed and said, "I haven't even finished speaking! And you're already saying no."

The old commander angrily retorted, "You brat, do you think we're a money-printing machine? You want to borrow money? No way! Besides, we don't have much money left either. What are we going to lend you? You have so much money, why would you lend it to us? Can you even spend it all?"

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, saying, "Look at what you're saying. Whether I can spend it all or not is my business. Besides, I never said I was borrowing money from you. Why are you all so agitated?"

Old Tang asked, "Bufan, if you're not borrowing money, then what do you want to do?"

Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "It's nothing! I just wanted to discuss with you whether I don't have to pay back the money I borrowed from you."

"Go to hell!" Old Tang, the old chief, Su Wenlong, and others cursed in unison. The old chief roared, "You damned brat, the money we borrowed from you was earned with our lives. You think you can just not pay it back? No way! We've already been generous by not charging you interest. Pay it back, every single penny! There's no room for negotiation."

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan smiled helplessly and said, "Alright then, I'll pay you back, but I'll have to wait until I have the money to pay you back."

The old leader immediately jumped up and roared, "You brat, I wish I could strangle you! If I had known you were this ruthless, I wouldn't have lent you the money in the first place!"

Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "Old Chief, if you strangle me to death, what will happen to Fangfang? Won't she hate you to death?"

"Don't give me that, kid. I'm telling you, I'm warning you, you have to pay back this money, and not a penny less."

Chao Bufan laughed, "I'll pay it back then, really, it's just a few dollars, is it really that big of a deal?" Seeing that the old commander was about to get angry again, Chao Bufan stopped joking with them and said seriously, "Alright, let's talk business! Old commander, have all those remaining drugs been cleared out?"

When the conversation turned to business, the old leader became serious and, after sitting down, said, "It's already been cleaned up."

"And what about them?" Chao Bufan asked again.

They're all downstairs!

He Yifei quickly stood up and said, "Young master, I'll go down for a bit."

Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Tell your grandfather and the others that I'll be down in a bit."

"Yes, son."

After He Yifei left, the old leader asked, "Bufan, who are these people? They all seem incredibly capable."

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "I wonder if you have heard of our HX Eight Great Cultivation Families?"
