A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 233 Liao Kongjun's Intimidation

Charlie was equally surprised, because in his view, apart from the Soviet Navy, no one else in HX recognized him, which made them quite astonished. Charlie quickly looked Liao Kongjun over and then nodded, saying, "Exactly."

Liao Kongjun smiled slightly, then looked at Qiao Ben and said, "Then you must be Mr. Qiao Ben, the bounty hunter!"

"Exactly."

"Are you John, the Knight of Honor?"

"good."

"Ninja Yamamoto-san?"

"Yes."

Liao Kongjun smiled and said, "I am Su Haijun's brother, Liao Kongjun. I'm sorry, Haijun has to go on business. I will temporarily take over Haijun's work in your business cooperation. I wonder if you gentlemen have any objections?"

Charlie laughed and said, "Then where did Boss Su go?"

Liao Kongjun replied, "Well, he didn't tell me. He only said that I should temporarily take over his work. Mr. Charlie, don't worry, I can still cooperate with you smoothly. Oh, by the way, the Navy asked me to tell you something when he went out: he just had some family matters to attend to and will be back in a few days."

Charlie smiled slightly and said, "Since Mr. Su will be back in a few days, then we'll come back in a few days."

After saying that, he turned and left. Liao Kongjun smiled slightly and said, "It seems you don't trust me! Fine, then tonight's business is canceled."

Upon hearing this, Charlie and the others frowned in unison and turned around. Charlie smiled and said, "Mr. Liao, we only cooperate with Boss Su himself. We are not interested in anyone else."

Liao Kongjun spread his hands, tilted his head slightly, and said, "Whatever! However, since the Navy has asked me to temporarily manage his business for the next few days, I naturally have the right to terminate tonight's transaction. Mr. Charlie, I've heard that your magic has reached a superb level, especially your special abilities, which are truly masterful. I am not very talented, but I also know a little magic and have some special abilities. I wonder if Mr. Charlie would do me the honor of sparring with me?"

As he spoke, Liao Kongjun flipped his right hand, and instantly, a gray orb the size of a fist appeared in his palm. Charlie and the others smiled slightly upon seeing this. Charlie smiled and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Liao to be a cultivator as well. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Liao Kongjun smiled and said, "Since you know I am a cultivator, would Mr. Charlie do me the honor?"

Charlie nodded, then his expression turned serious, and he frowned. Liao Kongjun suddenly felt an inexplicable force binding him tightly. He was slightly startled, then smiled, and his inner energy surged forth like a tidal wave, instantly dispelling the external pressure. Afterwards, Liao Kongjun laughed, "Mr. Charlie, you truly are a magician! I'm impressed!"

Charlie looked Liao Kongjun over with a strange gaze, then nodded and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Liao's magic to be so exquisite. I admire you!"

Liao Kongjun smiled and said, "Mr. Charlie, can we sit down and have a proper talk now?"

Charlie nodded and smiled, then nodded to Joben and the others.

The six men sat on the sofa, and Liao Kongjun spoke first: "Mr. Charlie, I am not very talented, but it is a great honor to cooperate with you all! Our cooperation will continue as before. May I ask what brings you here today, Mr. Charlie?"

Charlie was somewhat surprised to learn of Liao Kongjun's strength. Liao Kongjun looked young, yet his magic was so formidable. Charlie wondered how many hidden talents HX held that he didn't know about.

He nodded and smiled, "Mr. Liao, our first batch of goods has been delivered to the warehouse. I wonder what your plans are?"

Liao Kongjun smiled and said, "I've already made arrangements. Several major buyers will be coming to inspect the goods tonight."

Qiao Ben asked, "Mr. Liao, are these people reliable?"

Liao Kongjun nodded and said, "Quite reliable."

Charlie asked, "Where is the inspection location?"

"The inspection location has not been decided yet, Mr. Charlie. I will notify you once I have determined the inspection location."

Charlie nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Liao, we'll wait for your news. It'll be a pleasure doing business with you!"

As he spoke, Charlie reached out to shake hands with Liao Kongjun, who smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"

In the living room of a villa, Charlie and the others sat together drinking Kung Fu tea. After a moment, Qiao Ben spoke up: "Mr. Charlie, judging from the aura emanating from this kid, he's just a second-rate cultivator. What are we going to do..."

Charlie stopped and said, "This kid is not to be underestimated. I just tested him, and his cultivation should have reached the early stage of the Earth Realm."

Qiao Ben said, "They're only at the early stage of the Earth Realm, while we are..."

Charlie stopped again and laughed, "HX is a vast country, full of hidden talents. We must not be careless. I have studied HX's early civilization and know that HX has more cultivators than any other country in the world, and their strength is also greater. At present, we do not know which sect this kid belongs to, or how many powerful figures are in that sect. Therefore, we should try to avoid trouble. Besides, we are partners with them. With such a powerful backer, why not take advantage of it?"

Joben and the others nodded in unison. After a moment, Charlie asked, "John, when will your men arrive?"

John replied, "They're already on their way and should all be here tomorrow. Mr. Charlie, where are your men?"

Charlie said, "They're on their way too; they'll arrive tonight."

John nodded and said, "Then let's discuss the next steps!"

Yamamoto said, "Mr. Charlie, you should have a preliminary plan by now! Then you can arrange this matter, and we will all listen to you."

Charlie found Yamamoto's words agreeable and nodded with a smile, "Alright, let me explain my plan first. If you all feel it's inappropriate, then we can discuss it further. My plan is..."

Charlie lowered his voice and explained his plan. After he finished, John and the others fell silent.

After a moment, the four men exchanged glances and nodded. John said, "Then let's do as Mr. Charlie says! Mr. Charlie, once all our men are here, we'll begin our operation."

Charlie said, "Alright, then it's settled. If nothing unexpected happens, we will begin our operation in three days. Everyone, please remember, this matter is of utmost importance; it concerns the international standing of our empire. Success is all that matters, but if we fail, you all know the consequences. Therefore, once we begin our operation, we must be extremely careful and must not expose ourselves prematurely."

The others nodded in agreement, and Joben said, "Of course!"
