Chapter 187: Replacing

Everyone looked at Tang Zheng the same time. The young man was calm with no fear in his eyes. As if he was used to such a bloody scene.

Immediately, everyone understood that Young Master Tang was Tang Zheng.

Tang Dahai sighed and looked Tang Zheng with a slight change in his eyes. He once warned Tang Zheng to stay away from this kind of people. But now it seemed that his relationship with them was even closer.

In particular, Dong Zi’s fear of Tang Zheng was from the bottom of his heart. It was too obvious.

The look everyone had on Tang Zheng had changed and began to wondered in admiration.

Of course, the most dramatic psychological change was Wang Huzi. He thought that Tang Zheng was insignificant, who could easily punch him off the ground. Now he realized that Tang Zheng wasn’t someone he could afford to offend.

Even Dong Zi called him Young Master Tang but his fear was from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Huzi was terrified, the pain in his body couldn’t keep up with the fear in his heart. He trembled as he looked at Tang Zheng, who was staring down at him, with a pleading look.

“***, what are you looking at? Believe it or not, I will kill you right now.” Dong Zi yelled in a vicious tone.

Wang Huzi was scared to death as he pleaded for mercy, “Don’t kill me. I am blind. I will never dare to do it again.”

“You don’t have a say in this, Young Master Tang will have the final say.” Dong Zi said fiercely and then looked at Tang Zheng, “Young Master Tang, how do you want to handle him?”

Tang Zheng didn’t speak a word till now. He just calmly watched all of this. When he saw Wang Huzi’s miserable look, he didn’t feel any pity. When he was bullying these helpless old people, did he ever pity them? This was his retribution.

However, this incident reminded Tang Zheng that ordinary people were very scared of the people from the underworld. And many took advantage of this to bully others. This made Tang Zheng carry the blame. The victims of this bullying, much like his grandfather were the most common. He could never allow this to happen again.

Therefore, he must take advantage of this incident to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. So that no one would dare to do this again in the future.

Tang Zheng looked at Dong Zi and asked, “Wang Huzi said you were his backing and you can kill me in minutes?”

Dong Zi’s face turned pale filled with terror. He swore at Wang Huzi’s ancestors for 18 generations and explain in horror, “Young Master Tang, this is… Wang Huzi is talking nonsense. I have only seen him a few times. I never knew he would use my name to commit crimes.”

Tang Zheng’s face did not ease. His eyes were cold like blade.

Dong Zi panicked and quickly raised his hand and vowed, “Young Master Tang, if half my words were lie. Let me suffer as the heaven strike me with lightning for five times and die like a dog!”

The people of the underworld attached a great importance to oaths. Now that he had issued such poisonous oath, then it might be true. However, Wang Huzi was able to call Dong Zi by phone, Tang Zheng was still suspicious.

“Then why did you come here when he called?” Tang Zheng asked.

Dong Zi quickly explained, “Young Master Tang, I heard that someone was making trouble in your site. So I rushed to see who had the courage of a lion and didn’t expect it was this bearded bastard that infuriated Young Master Tang.”

“Was this Tang Zheng’s territory?”

Everyone grasped at this important news. They were stunned and looked at Tang Zheng with disbelief.

Tang Dahai looked his grandson. He could not imagine that Tang Zheng ruled this place. The crowd were in awe, even Wang Huzi and his thugs stopped screaming. Their eyes were about to pop out as they looked at Tang Zheng. Only fear lingered in their minds!

Tang Zheng ignored them and coldly asked Dong Zi, “Do you know what did he do to provoke me?”

Dong Zi’s heart moved. He didn’t know how this all started. He shook his head at a loss, “Young Master Tang, I don’t know.”

“Well, what do you think of the elderly people behind me. Wang Huzi hit and killed some of them. He deprived them of their right to survive, including my grandfather?”

“Wang Huzi is really something.” Dong Zi looked at the group of old people and said bitterly.

“My grandfather opened a junk shop and it was destroyed by Wang Huzi last night. He wanted to force everyone to sell their scraps to his junk shop. What do you say about this?”

Dong Zi said without hesitation, “Young Master Tang, how do you want to deal with him?”

Tang Zheng looked down at Wang Huzi and asked, “What do you want to do?”

“As long as you don’t kill me, I will do anything you want me to?” Wang Huzi was frightened.

Dong Zi looked at the junk shop and got a sudden inspiration, “Young Master Tang, since he destroyed your grandfather’s shop, he must naturally compensate you with his junk shop.”

“This…” Wang Huzi was dumbfounded. This junk shop was the only way he could earn money. If this was taken away, what would he do?

In order to keep his life, he could only grit his teeth and endure it. He said, “Then I will sell it Young Master Tang for a cheap price. Consider it an apology from me for the matters last night.”

“This father dared to say sell? He dared to make Young Master Tang pay no less? You f*cking lost your mind? Why don’t you just let me kill you!” Dong Zi flew into a rage.

This Wang Huzi was really stupid, he still dared to ask money at this time. How can Dong Zi not be angry, he could clearly see Young Master Tang’s eyes turned colder.

Wang Huzi was horrified that Tang Zheng wanted him to give away his junk shop for nothing, so that he would suffer much more. Before he could think much, Dong Zi kicked him hard in the stomach. He screamed as he rolled to the corner like a dead dog.

At this moment, he finally realized the fear of death, he begged, “I’ll give, I’ll give the junk shop to Young Master Tang. I’m begging you, please let me.”

Tang Zheng corrected him, “Not giving but compensating. You took my grandfather’s junk shop, it is only natural that you compensate him with this.”

Wang Huzi nodded again and again, “Yes, yes, the compensation. Its only right I compensate this to your grandfather.”

Others were envious as they looked at Tang Dahai. This junk shop could easily generate millions of dollars a year and was sustainable. This was truly an imaginable fortune for the hardworking people of the lowest class.

Moreover, with Tang Dahai’s character, he would never be like Wang Huzi. He won’t just make living, hell. Later, the scrap could be sold at a good price. This could certainly improve their life.

Therefore, many of them started to ponder about how to curry favour with Tang Dahai.

Human nature was as such, when Tang Dahai was just a fellow scavenger, everyone treated him indifferently. But when his status quickly elevated, enough to determine their life. They tried to quickly treat him differently.

Tang Dahai looked at his group of old friends. They still didn’t take it in and didn’t adapt to the moment. He said, “Little Zheng, come here.”

“Yes, Grandpa?”

Tang Dahai walked towards the corner and said, “Come, I have to tell you something.”

Tang Zheng nodded and came over, he listened as Tang Dahai seriously said, “Little Zheng, are you really going to take this junk shop?”

“Why, you don’t want it?” Tang Zheng asked back.

“But if we did this. What will other think of us?” Tang Dahai asked in worry.

Tang Zheng’s heart moved. He understood his grandfather’s worries. He was still too kind. Wang Huzi caused so many problems and he still didn’t want to retaliate.

Tang Zheng didn’t agree with his view. This was the difference between the two generations. Regarding many matters, Tang Zheng still had his own opinions. Although, sometimes his grandfather didn’t come eye to eye with him. He still knew that this was the most beneficial way for him.

He suddenly got a clever idea. He hoped that with this incident, his grandfather would understand and accept his way of doing things.

“Grandpa, Wang Huzi bullied this place for so many years. Everyone hates it but no one dared to speak out. Wouldn’t owning this junk shop benefit everyone? Wang Huzi had harmed everyone here and made their life worse, why can’t you replace him?”

“Replace him?” Tang Dahai doubted.

“Yes grandpa. You should manage this junk shop. This will guarantee everyone’s livelihood. Now you have a better chance, this will allow you to help everyone. Isn’t this what you want? Everyone respects you, so why not?” Tang Zheng analysed and said.

Tang Dahai truly wanted to help everyone and lead them to a better life. This was his wish. Tang Zheng’s words undoubtedly touched him.

“Grandpa, they will be satisfied with this. You will also be happy. This is the best of both worlds.” Tang Zheng continued to persuade.

Tang Dahai turned his head to look back at the group of old folks, then asked, “Are you really fine with this?”

Tang Zheng quickly said, “Of course, Grandpa, you should not hesitate any longer. We don’t need to rely on this junk shop to earn money. But they need it to earn money, isn’t this a good thing?”

“Alright, I promise you, but what are you going to do with Wang Huzi and his thugs?” Tang Dahai asked again, “Are you really going to kill them?”

“Of course not, I’m not a murderer. Now that he handed over his junk shop. I will naturally give him a way out.” Tang Zheng said.

Tang Dahai breathe a sigh of relief and said, “Little Zheng, your actions really scared me. I thought you would kill him.”

Tang Zheng laughed, “How can I kill people under the watchful eyes of the crowd?”

Just now, he had really thought of killing them. After all, Wang Huzi cannot just be forgive for bullying his Grandpa but later he thought that not everything in this world can be solved by killing.

Tang Dahai finally sighed in relief and smiled, “Then do as you like.”

Tang Zheng turned around and walked towards Wang Huzi, who was lying on the ground as he was too scared to stand up.
