Chapter 834 Same Goal

"Do you want to integrate the big and small forces here?" Aris was frightened by Zhang Heng's plan. In fact, not only him, but other members of the patrol were also frightened.

After all, extorting iron shackles and re-establishing the rules and order of the black world are completely different things.

This place has more ruthless people than Tieshao. Tieshao may be fierce enough in front of the group of thieves, but in this area, he can only be regarded as a small player at best. He and his few people are more powerful than other big forces. There wasn't even a splash of water in front of me.

And just like that, their manpower is twice that of the patrol team. If they really started to take action in the tavern just now, the patrol team would most likely be left with nothing to eat.

It's so difficult to swallow an iron shackle. It's hard to imagine what the outcome will be like against those powerful patrols.

Therefore, not only Aris, but other people in the patrol team also doubted the authenticity of Zhang Heng's words. However, unlike Aris, they probably expected Zhang Heng to be lying, because although what Aris said was very reasonable, it was overwhelmingly true. Most of the patrol members still hope to make money with Zhang Heng, but the prerequisite is not to risk their lives just to make money.

"Yes, but this matter has to be done step by step," Zhang Heng said, "Our patrol team's status is very suitable for collecting security fees, but it is not suitable for directly intervening in the struggle between gangs, at least not now, it can easily cause The vigilance of other forces will later unite to resist us, so we need to take down Tieshao and his gang first, use them as a stepping stone to absorb and cultivate small forces that can be loyal to us, accumulate strength, and then attack the medium-sized forces here , and finally the large forces..."

Zhang Heng tried his best to explain the next action plan in the most concise language.

However, everyone still looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. After a while, Barbier said, "Can you tell us briefly what we are going to do next?"

"I just said, take down the iron shackles and his gang."

"Uh, but haven't we already taken down Iron Shackles and his gang?" Barbier asked doubtfully.

"Oh, you seem to have misunderstood something. We just made a small amount of pocket money. You don't think Tieshao and his people will give in so easily, right? Thirty percent of the income is too painful for them, and it is enough for them. Take risks out of desperation.”

"What?" All the patrol team members were stunned when they heard this.

"Don't worry, he doesn't want to make the matter too big, otherwise he would have taken action in the tavern before, so he should only target me next time." Zhang Heng said, "As long as he is not stupid, he will know I am the one who planned all this. After all, the patrol team had always behaved well before I arrived. As long as he solves me, he will solve his own trouble."

"He wants to kill you?" Barbier looked tense.

"That's not necessarily the case. After all, I am also a member of the patrol team. If you can teach me a lesson and get me out of here, it is of course the best solution." Zhang Heng said calmly.

As a result, not long after he finished saying this, a patrol member named Marcus suddenly said, "I'm with you."

It has been two years since Marcus joined the patrol. Usually he rarely talks. He seems to prefer to be alone. He seems to be thinking about his own things. He doesn't have many friends in the patrol. Although I don’t reject group activities, I am not very active either.

No one expected him to be so generous and willing to stand up for someone he had only known for less than a day. From the looks of it, he seemed to be planning to deal with the upcoming troubles with Zhang Heng.

Marcus explained, "I did this not entirely for righteous reasons. You were very powerful in the tavern before and were smarter than all of us. Since you know that insisting on asking for 30% of the income will drive the Iron Cuffs gang You must have thought about how to deal with their subsequent revenge. I think you are a more qualified leader than Aris, so rather than saying that I want to help you, I want to follow you."

Zhang Heng was a little surprised. He had learned about the patrol team before. Except for Aris, he didn't care much about the others. He didn't care too much about whether they were willing to cooperate, because he had the ability to drag everyone into the water, and strictly speaking, Zhang Heng What he was interested in was just the identity of the patrol team, not the people in it.

He didn't expect to find treasures among them. Although this young man named Marcus didn't talk much, he had clear ideas and was calm in dealing with things. At the same time, he was not indecisive. When it was time to make a decision, he did not hesitate or hesitate Concealing your true intentions can go a long way with just a little polish.

Zhang Heng wants to integrate the large and small forces here. He will definitely not be able to do it with his own strength. He needs helpers. Zhang Heng's original plan was to select suitable talents from the major forces, but if the patrol team can Of course it's better to find it.

After all, the people here are more aligned with his ultimate goal.

With Marcus taking the lead, several people on the patrol team expressed their willingness to stand with Zhang Heng and work with him to deal with the iron cuffs. This actually meant that the patrol team had begun to divide.

This may seem incredible at first glance. Aris spent many years building up his prestige as captain, only for Zhang Heng to break it in less than half a night.

But if you think about it carefully, you won't be surprised by this result. After all, Zhang Heng's previous performance in the tavern was so outstanding that he shocked everyone. Of course, the most important thing is that he proved that everyone who follows him has Eat meat.

In fact, even in the patrol team, most people don't have as high a moral standard as Aris, especially if they have been here for a long time. Will be affected more or less.

When Aris questioned Zhang Heng before, some people just couldn't speak because of Aris' identity as captain. In their opinion, the money was not stolen from the street, so there was nothing unacceptable. Anyway, the Iron Cuffs group He is not a good person, why should he expose this matter so that no one can get money.

But what surprised everyone was that Aris also said, "Stop arguing. Zhang Heng is a member of the patrol team. His business is the patrol team's business. How can we stand aside and watch if someone comes to attack him?"

After saying that, he extended his hand.

"What?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows.

"My share of the money," Aris said, "don't worry if I don't accept it."

Zhang Heng knew what Aris had guessed. There was nothing unusual about it. Someone above him must have been deliberately making things difficult for him by being assigned here. Therefore, Zhang Heng not only had to solve the immediate problem, but also guard against possible hidden arrows. What he was doing now Strictly speaking, the matter was not very legal. Of course, Zhang Heng paid great attention to this and would not leave any excuses, including wording, and he would not come forward on his own for many subsequent matters.

But no matter what, Aris was willing to convey goodwill to him that would not betray him, and of course he would not refuse.

"But I will always keep one eye on you to see if you can fulfill your promise in the end." Aris said seriously after taking the money.

"Welcome." Zhang Heng said, "Actually, it should be said that among all the people, my ultimate goal is the least likely to be changed, because I don't plan to stay here for too long."
