Xiao Ran turned around and glanced at the media reporters, then said with a smile:
"Good afternoon, fellow journalists, thank you for your attention."
"I did find a few pieces of antique art in Bowenxuan, which was a small gain."
"But that's all. Things are not as exaggerated as the rumors. There is no need to make wild guesses."
"As for what I found, I can't display it publicly for the time being. I hope everyone understands."
Hearing this, the media reporters and people watching the excitement rolled their eyes angrily.
The news that you found a large number of top-quality antique art here has already spread on social media.
There are even related pictures and videos, is it necessary to keep them secret? We are not fools!
After secretly complaining, some media reporters immediately followed up with questions.
However, Xiao Ran did not give any further response.
He pointed to a bulletproof SUV parked on the roadside and said to Sun Bowen and others:
"Mr. Zhou, Boss Sun, please take this car and let's go to Liuyunzhai together."
"Okay, let me lock the door of the store first and leave Liuyunzhai later. I will go home directly."
Boss Sun nodded in response.
Then, he turned around and locked the store door.
At this moment, the Hongmen leader and the Vietnamese gang leader standing across the street stepped out in unison, each with a few younger brothers walking towards them.
As a result, as soon as they took two steps, Marvin and his leader stopped them with their hands.
"Gentlemen, please do not come close to avoid any misunderstanding."
Marvin said coldly.
While saying this, he and several other security team members put their right hands on the lapels of their coats.
It was obvious that they were ready to draw their guns and fire.
Seeing their actions, the guys from Hongmen and the Vietnam Gang stopped immediately. They all felt their eyelids twitching and suddenly became nervous.
"Relax, man, we don't mean any harm, we just want to have a word with Mr. Xiao."
The leader of Hongmen said quickly and took two steps back.
The leader of the Vietnamese gang also took two steps back with his men, his eyes full of fear.
The gangsters standing behind them and on the sidewalk had angry expressions on their faces, but no one made any noise.
These guys knew in their hearts that what they were facing today were not ordinary people, but a group of guys who were notoriously ruthless.
Especially Xiao Ran, the reputation of killing them all if he doesn't take action has already spread throughout the United States, especially the Chinese society!
After taking two steps back, the Hongmen leader copied Guang Pu and said loudly:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Xiao, I am here on behalf of the Boston branch of Zhi Gong Tang. I have something I want to talk to you about."
Before he finished speaking, the leader of the Vietnamese gang immediately continued:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Xiao, our gang also has some matters that we would like to discuss with you."
What this guy said was broad-based, so there was no need to worry about being understood by those media reporters.
Xiao Ran raised his eyes and looked at these two guys, pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Marvin, let them come over, but only two people can come over."
"I'd love to hear if they have anything to talk to me about."
"Copy that, boss"
Marvin responded, and then looked at the two leaders of the Hongmen and Vietnam gangs.
"Gentlemen, you can pass, but only two people can pass."
The two guys were straightforward and nodded immediately:
"OK"
Then, they turned around and gave some instructions to their men.
Then he separated from his men and walked towards Xiao Ran with Ma Wen.
In a matter of three or two steps, they were already close.
Xiao Ran looked at these two guys and then asked curiously:
"I wonder what you want to talk to me about? I'd like to know more about it."
He spoke Mandarin and his voice was very low.
Prior to this, he had turned off the live broadcast microphone and basically did not have to worry about leaks.
"Hello, Mr. Xiao, I am Jiang Jianfeng from Zhigongtang. Nice to meet you."
"As we all know, you are a famous collector and professional treasure hunter. I think we may have the possibility of cooperation."
Jiang Jianfeng whispered.
Because there were so many people at the scene, he did not say the specific content of the cooperation.
Xiao Ran smiled softly and did not respond.
Then, he looked at the leader of the Vietnamese gang.
The guy understood instantly and immediately whispered:
"Hello, Mr. Xiao, I am Ruan Dongsheng, a Vietnamese-Chinese. Nice to meet you."
"We have a batch of antique artworks from Southeast Asia. Are you interested?..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ran shook his head and interrupted the other party.
"Needless to say, you may not understand that I never accept any antique artworks of unknown origin, whether they come from China, Southeast Asia or Europe and the United States."
"We, Feilong Zaitian Exploration Company, are a law-abiding company. We never do anything illegal and don't want to cause any trouble."
"You must be very clear about the nature of your respective gangs. This determines that there is basically no possibility for us to cooperate!"
"ah!"
Jiang Jianfeng and Ruan Dongsheng both exclaimed and froze on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, the expressions of the two guys changed, becoming quite ugly and embarrassed.
They never expected that Xiao Ran would refuse so simply, without giving any face.
For a moment, they couldn't even think of what to say to resolve the embarrassment.
However, this is not the end.
Before they could respond, Xiao Ran whispered again:
"Guys, I still have things to do, so I won't chat with you anymore. You two, please do it yourself!"
"Before leaving, there is one thing I think it is necessary to remind you to avoid any unpleasantness."
"Boss Liu Yunzhai Zhou and Boss Bo Wenxuan Sun are my friends. I don't want to see anyone harassing them."
"If someone is harassing them and their families, such as extortion, I will step in to help them solve the problem."
"At that time, no matter who the other person is or what gang he comes from, I will definitely kill him without mercy!"
"That's all I have to say. I hope you can restrain your subordinates. Nice to meet you. See you later."
After speaking, Xiao Ran waved to the two guys, and then boarded the President No. 1 bulletproof SUV in front of him.
The convoy immediately started and drove towards Liuyunzhai not far away.
Liuyunzhai is only two to three hundred meters away, so there is no need to take a car at all.
Looking at Jiang Jianfeng and Ruan Dongsheng, they were all stunned.
In the eyes of these two guys, there was a look of anger and a bit of humiliation at the same time.
At this time, they still don't understand.
Xiao Ran didn't take them seriously at all and didn't even bother to talk to them.
Not only them, but also the Boston branch of Zhi Gong Tang and the Vietnam Gang behind them were not within Xiao Ran's sight.
Perhaps only the highest level of Hongmen are qualified to enter Xiao Ran's field of vision, not minions like them.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran's motorcade had left the door of the antique store.
Only then did Jiang Jianfeng and Ruan Dongsheng wake up.
The next moment, Ruan Dongsheng suddenly bit his back teeth and cursed in a low voice:
"Fake! This bastard is too arrogant, and he doesn't even give him any face!"
"This is Boston, this is our place, not fucking Los Angeles!"
"He dares to threaten us in Boston. Why is he so arrogant?"
Jiang Jianfeng didn't say much, he just gritted his teeth and stared at the motorcade heading towards Liuyunzhai.
The next moment, their respective men had surrounded them.
As soon as they came closer, the minions immediately started asking questions.
"Boss, why did the conversation end so quickly? Did that guy Xiao Ran agree to cooperate?"
"This guy is a super rich man and very generous. If you cooperate with him, you will definitely make a lot of money."
A young man from the Vietnamese gang asked impatiently, speaking in Vietnamese.
Before he finished speaking, Ruan Dongsheng cursed angrily:
"Cooperation is nothing! This bastard doesn't take our gang seriously at all, let alone cooperate!"
"This bastard also issued a warning that he will kill anyone who dares to take advantage of the two antique shop owners."
Hearing this, the Vietnamese guys exploded instantly and started shouting and cursing at the top of their lungs.
However, a hint of fear flashed across their eyes.
Each of them understood that Xiao Ran's warning was more than just words!
On the other side, Jiang Jianfeng explained a few words to his younger brothers in a low voice.
Those guys were also very angry and started yelling and cursing immediately.
However, Jiang Jianfeng stopped them and took them away from here.
After walking forward for a while, he lowered his voice and said:
"Listen, everyone, don't make any moves during this period. Don't take any chances with the two antique shop owners. Just wait and see what happens!"
"Those Vietnamese monkeys may not be able to help but take action. Let's see how Xiao Ran reacts and see if he will take action."
"If that guy Xiao Ran is really as ruthless as he was in New York, then we have no choice but to stop. We can't afford to offend this guy!"
Hearing this, guys like Hongmen were full of dissatisfaction, but they had to admit that this was an indisputable fact.
Then, these guys left here.
At the same time, Xiao Ran's motorcade had arrived at the gate of Liuyunzhai.
In this time-honored antique store that has been passed down for more than 160 years, there are still several very good antique works of art waiting for Xiao Ran to discover!
