Chapter 855: The Man Who Boarded the Ship: Bao Wenjia
The small cargo ship drifting on the sea looked incredibly aged. Compared to the massive Cruise Ship beside it, this cargo ship was not only tiny but also dilapidated and worn-out, its hull covered in mottled rust as if it were a relic from the last century, making one wonder how these people managed to keep it running on the sea.
On the ship, Juedan was smoking, staring at the shaky, dim yellow lightbulb on the ceiling of the cabin, vaguely hearing the laughter of passengers from the Cruise Ship in the distance and the rhythmic, explosive music. He slowly exhaled a smoke ring, his bearded face showing a mix of extreme envy and disdain.
The tall, skinny monkey beside him also watched the activity over there, making a sound full of mockery: "These rich people really know how to enjoy themselves, damn it."
Although they had long heard of the reputation of the Bao Family and knew how rich they were, when they arrived at the scene and faced that luxurious Cruise Ship which looked like a huge island, they still couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
After all, the contrast between the big and the small was just too stark.
Whoever saw it couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
The world of the rich was simply too far beyond the boundaries of ordinary people.
Not to mention these guys who sold their consciences and used cruel methods for money.
Juedan didn't respond to this, but when he looked at the brightly lit Cruise Ship, his eyes also flashed with a strange light.
Just at this moment, they received new news.
"Huh? With so many rich people, can't their subordinates even keep an eye on a pregnant woman?"
The skinny monkey heard that they had to send someone up separately now, and mocked in a sharp tone.
"What about that person who escaped? Haven't they found them yet?"
Juedan also subconsciously felt that something was wrong when he heard such news, but thinking that on this vast sea, the whole ship belonged to others, even if this person escaped, they couldn't go anywhere, so they didn't seem to need to be that nervous.
"Young Master Bao said the guest is in a hurry, so just send one piece of cargo up first. As for the one who escaped, they will track them down."
The skinny monkey said, and couldn't help but wipe his face, spitting: "These rich people are just different, huh? It's hard to find someone when they run away on such a big ship."
Juedan looked at the ship and felt that the skinny monkey's words made perfect sense.
On such a big ship, if someone ran away and hid somewhere, they really might not be able to find them.
Tsk, rich people have too many troublesome things.
"Then just pick one and send it up for them."
Juedan waved his hand impatiently, and also stood up, preparing to go to the deck himself to select a cargo container and send new cargo to them.
However, halfway there, he suddenly extinguished his cigarette butt, took out his phone to check, then frowned, and turned to ask the skinny monkey: "Wensa has been up there for so long, why is there no news at all?"
He checked repeatedly and confirmed that Wensa had not replied to him.
This gave Juedan a faint, ominous premonition for the first time.
However, at this moment, the crane high in the air began to rotate, and the container on the opposite ship began to sway back to their cargo ship. This container, the size of a truck, was now like an elevator car, steadily placed on their deck.
And the others on the cargo ship had already surrounded it.
Most of them were holding guns.
When the cargo container slowly opened, several people who specifically came to this ship to dock walked down empty-handed.
It was a young man about the same age as Bao Wenyin, with a very fierce appearance. His eyebrows revealed a bit of murderous aura, his eyes were exceptionally critical, even harsh. Even the bodyguards following him all had extraordinary temperaments, with quite a bit of a thug's posture.
In contrast, the criminals on the cargo ship, wearing short sleeves and shorts, and not so bright clothing, looked more like low-level Gang members.
When the two sides confronted each other, it felt like an overseas Hollywood movie meeting a White Elephant Bollywood movie—on one side were well-dressed Gang members on the streets of London, and on the other were dusty, poorly dressed wild thugs.
This scene had a bit of the comedic effect of being on the wrong set.
However, compared to the circle of people with guns, although these people were fierce, they didn't carry many weapons, looking like most of the threat had been eliminated.
But Juedan didn't recognize the young man leading them.
His eyebrows were tightly furrowed, almost forming a mountain range, but before he could speak to ask, the person opposite took the initiative to challenge them: "What's the matter with you? The master you sent started vomiting blood shortly after performing the ritual, telling us it was a backlash of magic power, and was reluctant to perform rituals for our other clients, resulting in our other businesses being stalled."
"What? Wensa vomited blood?"
Juedan was stunned for a moment, immediately shocked, but he was not led astray by this news that had been dumped on his head. Instead, he continued to question the young man in front of him: "Who are you? Hasn't Bao Wenyin always been the one docking with us?"
"My big brother is busy calming the clients' emotions and has no time to come over. Besides, the doctor is still checking on your master's situation, so he definitely has to stay there and wait for the results."
"As for me? I am Bao Wenjia, also a member of the Bao Family. You docking with me should be no different from docking with my big brother, right? Anyway, it doesn't affect anything."
Hearing the self-introduction of the young man in front of him, Juedan didn't believe it immediately, but narrowed his eyes and looked the person up and down.
That old President Bao of the Bao Family was indeed superstitious and often had business dealings with the heavenly masters on their side in his early years.
So Juedan also roughly understood some of the internal situation of the Bao Family.
Especially the pile of children of Bao Xingsheng, there were too many to count.
In the past, when Juedan knew about this, he was still laughing at this old guy for having so many children, not afraid that the children would fight for the family property until they were bloody when they grew up.
As a result, until now, looking at this person who suddenly intervened and came to their ship personally to talk business with them, he vaguely realized the undercurrents surging under the large number of people in the Bao Family.
After all, the younger generation of the Bao Family is now about twenty years old, and it is time to consider the family property...
So, measuring others by himself and speculating with evil, Juedan immediately realized the other party's plan—
"Does your brother really know that you came over?"
Juedan narrowed his eyes, his hands went behind his back without a trace, and he gestured to the skinny monkey behind him.
The young man in front of him seemed not to have noticed his suspicion, but still nodded calmly, and slightly raised his chin, saying very arrogantly: "This is natural. Besides, we have cooperated for so many years, and you have always been doing business with our Bao Family. As for who in the Bao Family you are doing it with, isn't it the same?"
Juedan just smiled and said meaningfully: "Perhaps that is the case."
