Chang Qing stopped Joseph's car from going to the vault and went back to his mansion.
Joseph said with a dark face, "Give me an explanation."
Chang Qing rubbed his temples and said, "Sir, one of our casinos has been seized, and we've lost more money than you. It's already good enough that I can guarantee that you won't be caught by Huaxia's police."
Joseph raised his eyebrows. "What? If something happens to your casinos, that's your problem. Are you saying that my one billion USD will be taken away just like that? "
Chang Qing said, "Don't worry. My informant just called me and said that we're being followed. If we go to the vault now, the people from the underground money house will all be caught."
"It's none of my business. You promised me that if anything happens, it won't be my fault. I'm only responsible for withdrawing the funds and returning to China. You don't have to explain all this to me. If you mess up this deal, I'll sue the underground money house that you're working with," Joseph said with an unpleasant expression.
Chang Qing gave him a cigar and comforted him. "It's just a casino being seized, it's not the worst case. Mr. Joseph, I promise you that as long as the four of us are still here, we'll find a way to make up for your lost money. Now, you should trust me and leave Huaxia immediately. We'll make up for your lost money through the underground money house."
"No, I'm doubting your abilities now. I won't go back until I see the money. Also, I lost three hundred million USD. I even suspect that you guys are trying to scam me. What's wrong with that woman? I can tell that she's not good at playing cards, but I lost to her. The people in your casino can't even give me a clear signal at a crucial time. Really, I've seen through your tricks. Let me tell you, I'll give you two choices now. One, I'll leave with the money; two, if anything happens to me here, I'm sorry, but my big client from the Middle East won't let you off. "
Chang Qing's expression changed slightly. West Gate's success was mostly due to the grey income from these big clients. If this matter went south, they might lose their international clients, and it would be very detrimental to West Gate's future development.
"Mr. Joseph, give me a day's time. As long as we don't do anything for a day, the police will only arrest a few people and then stop. We've been in this business for so long, we still have this bit of credibility. "
Joseph gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, but you have to make up for the 300 million dollars I lost."
Chang Qing: "That's impossible. You lost the money yourself. We only earned 50 million USD from this deal. If you spit out 300 million USD, where are we going to find it? Mr. Joseph, don't push your luck. "
Joseph slammed his palm on the table. "Then go and ask the dealer of your casino what he's doing. Why didn't he warn me when I saw that woman's cards were so good? I don't believe that this isn't a trap set up by you! Mr. Chang, if you want to play dirty, go talk to the boss behind me! "
Outside the mansion, Xu Cheng was sitting in the car, listening to every word they said without missing a single word. Very good, it was worth it for Shen Yao to win so much money from this Joseph. This guy knew that he wouldn't be able to make up for such a big financial hole, so he became anxious and could only ask West Gate for some money. This Joseph might be a breakthrough point.
Since you guys want to hide, then I will blow things up a bit and let you guys fight amongst yourselves!
Xu Cheng still had a trump card in his hand, and that was another client that was involved in money laundering. Other than Joseph, he also found the boss of the biggest smuggling business in the country. He definitely had the support of someone from South Asia, or else he wouldn't have been able to live so smoothly all these years. Now, this boss was also arrested when West Gate's casino was seized. If the news of him being played by West Gate got out, it would definitely cause a lot of commotion.
Thinking up to this point, Xu Cheng picked up his phone and called Wu Gang. "Go to the prison and find the disciple that was arrested by North Gate. It's best if it's someone with some connections in the underground world. Ask him to cooperate with me on something."
After hearing Xu Cheng's plan, Wu Gang nodded and said, "Boss, I know what to do."
Xu Cheng: "Oh, right, get me some takeout. I'm going to fight with these guys today. Tell everyone that the mission isn't over yet, and the big fish is yet to come."
Wu Gang: "Yes, then I'll go arrange the things you asked me to do."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Cheng leaned back in his chair and continued eavesdropping on everything going on in the villa. During this time, Chang Qing and Joseph's conversation already exposed a lot of clues. First, Chang Qing had a partner from the underground money house behind him. No wonder West Gate was able to take over five casinos, it turned out that they had a rich backer behind them.
In just half a day, the news of the police seizing and sealing up one of West Gate's biggest casinos spread out. And on the underground world, the person that was released from North Gate contacted the force behind the boss of the transport company and instigated them to tell them about West Gate's casino being seized and all the funds confiscated. Not long after, Xu Cheng heard Chang Qing's phone being called by an unknown number.
Chang Qing's face slightly changed when he saw the number.
"Hello?"
"Boss Chang, where are you?"
"I'm at home."
"Then my partner is at the police station right now. Can you tell me what's going on?"
Chang Qing wiped off the sweat on his forehead. "Let me explain."
"Don't give me that shit. Now, you guys find a way to get my partner out of the police station, and then transfer the 500 million USD and 100 million compensation to me through the underground money house you guys are working with. If you don't fulfill one condition, I will turn your mansion into a haunted house!" The voice on the other side of the phone was very cold. "I will give you one day. If you can't do it in 24 hours, you will receive a package."
Chang Qing shivered, and then the other side hung up the phone. He was so angry that he directly threw his phone out and smashed it!
On the side, Joseph mocked, "Didn't you say you have an insider? How come you guys got screwed this time? I really don't know why the underground money house behind you is interested in you guys. What's the point of playing with people like you? "
Chang Qing said, "If it wasn't for the insider's information this time, we would probably have been wiped out already. Mr. Joseph, do you think it's that easy to bribe an insider? We have been having too much success these past few years. Do you think the police station didn't notice that there are bugs inside? Every time we bribe someone, we get wiped out. It's already hard for anyone to work with us. "
