Changing the name to Fuxing is a foreshadowing, the reason will be explained in the later plot—

Inside the bar, the music was still off, everyone was still watching, and the drone was still buzzing in the air.

Han Yang smiled and raised his wine glass, looking at Zhou Da'an.

The coldness on Zhou Da'an's face gradually melted, and finally turned into a smile: "Haha, Brother Han Yang is too polite. Come, come, come, brother, sit here, let's have a good drink together today."

Li Hu quickly got up and gave Han Yang his seat. Han Yang said lightly, "Dispose of the trash."

His tone was like giving orders to a subordinate.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Li Hu seemed to have unconsciously adapted to this change in role. He lowered his head, called a few subordinates, and directly carried away Black Three's body. He then wiped away the bloodstains, leaving no trace on the ground.

After drinking a glass of wine with Zhou Da'an, Han Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this hurdle was passed today.

"Brother, you are a man who does great things. It's a good place for these little brats to follow you. Don't worry about official matters, brother, I'll handle everything for you."

Zhou Da'an didn't care that so many people were watching intently and took full responsibility directly.

Beside him, Li Hu and Black Three's former subordinates also breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

It was clear that from now on, Han Yang would replace Black Three and become the boss of this group of people. Now that Zhou Da'an had also expressed his support, Han Yang's position was even more stable.

Everyone was just trying to make a living, so who they followed didn't matter? Now this new boss had a mysterious and powerful background. Following him was definitely better than following Black Three.

As for loyalty and avenging the boss, that was all just to fool idiots.

Han Yang clinked glasses with Zhou Da'an: "I'm just taking the position of boss. The specific matters will still have to be done by Li Hu."

"Understood, understood. Brother is doing great things, of course he won't waste time on such small matters."

Li Hu was overjoyed and immediately expressed his loyalty to Han Yang: "Boss Han, don't worry, even if I have to risk my life, I will do what you tell me to do."

Han Yang nodded slightly and ignored him.

Han Yang saw people like Li Hu very clearly. Not very smart, likes to make a fuss, and likes to think he's clever. These kinds of people are the easiest to control. As long as the deterrence is sufficient, they will be absolutely obedient.

After drinking a few glasses of wine with Han Yang and finalizing some matters, Zhou Da'an immediately took his leave. Han Yang saw him off to the bar entrance, and the drone also followed him to the entrance. Afterwards, Han Yang waved at the drone, and the drone immediately flew high and away, disappearing somewhere.

Zhou Da'an watched, his heart filled with awe.

He had originally thought that even if this Han Yang had a great background, he wouldn't provoke him openly, but he would still have to investigate him secretly to find out his background. If he was just pretending, then he might have to take action to deal with him.

But since this kid was so sensible and immediately raised the protection money by half, there was no need for him to be the bad guy. Not only would he not be the bad guy, but he would also support him.

After seeing off Zhou Da'an, Han Yang did not go back into the bar, but called Li Hu over.

"We need a name from now on, let's call it the Fuxing Gang. Black Three's gambling den, Tanghuang Bar, and other gang properties will all be renamed Fuxing."

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Tomorrow morning at the gambling den, prepare the gang's accounts, I'll check them. Also, call all the brothers over so everyone can get acquainted."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Li Hu was like an echo, only knowing how to agree.

"I'm leaving."

Han Yang got up and left directly. Li Hu and a group of subordinates respectfully saw him off at the bar entrance. Only after Han Yang had gone far away did a few people dare to raise their heads.

"Our new boss... is so imposing, he can even get armed drones. I wonder what his background is..."

Li Hu slapped him and cursed, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't think what you shouldn't think, be careful you end up feeding the wild dogs like that dead Black Three!"

"Brother Hu, from now on..."

"From now on, of course we'll follow Boss Han! Didn't you see how imposing Boss Han is! Isn't that more promising than following Black Three? I'm warning everyone, be obedient, don't cause trouble, or don't blame Brother Hu for not saving you!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we'll definitely be obedient. But it seems Boss Han values Brother Hu very much. We'll have to ask Brother Hu to take care of us in the future!"

"Let's go, let's go, Brother Hu, I have to give you a good toast."

A group of people returned to the bar noisily. The main lights were turned off, the flashing lights were turned on, and the music was put on. The bar became noisy again, dancing and drinking as if nothing had happened.

Black Three's death did not cause a ripple. This was the norm in the slum area. Han Yang's name, however, was remembered by everyone in the bar in that short period of time.

Walking out of the bar and turning a corner, Han Yang saw Shen the Butcher looking at him with a somewhat complicated expression.

A smile appeared on Han Yang's face, and he walked directly towards Shen the Butcher: "Brother Shen, I handled it myself."

"You even got armed drones, quite the display."

Han Yang could almost be considered to have been watched growing up by Shen the Butcher. But now, he found that he was increasingly unable to see through Han Yang.

After thinking for a moment, Shen the Butcher finally asked the question: "How did you get them? What have you been doing during this time?"

"Everyone has their own secrets. I also have my own secrets. The only thing I can guarantee is that I will always be the same Han Yang as before, I won't change."

Shen the Butcher sighed: "If you don't want to say, I won't ask. But, are you really going to get involved in the underworld from now on? There's no future in that."

Han Yang shook his head: "No. This is just a layer of disguise. I need this kind of disguise."

"Disguise..."

Shen the Butcher's expression was complicated as he repeatedly savored these two words.

Han Yang returned home, where the drone was already parked steadily in the courtyard. Carefully locking the door, Han Yang packed the drone into a box and hid it under the bed.

This drone absolutely couldn't be seen by others. If it were seen, people would immediately suspect it was fake, and further suspect that Han Yang had no background at all.

After settling the drone, Han Yang lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

He had drunk some alcohol today, and his head was a bit dizzy, so he needed to rest early.

However, while his human brain was dizzy, the computers were not. During the time Han Yang was out, the 12 computers and robots had been working continuously, processing one power-leveling order after another.

The 13th computer hadn't stopped either. The robot was manipulating the mouse and keyboard, constantly browsing one webpage and video after another, greedily absorbing knowledge from the internet.

All of this was running simultaneously, without affecting Han Yang in the slightest.

The night passed, and he woke up in the morning feeling refreshed. Han Yang didn't cook and went to Aunt Wang's food stall again.

"Aunt Wang! A large bowl of beef noodles, plus an egg and a portion of meat!"
