Welcome to "I'm Trapped in the Same Day for a Thousand Years," exclusively produced by Feilu Novel Network. Narrated by Sang Ze Wang Xiaomo and Lao He. Afterwards, you can also ask him questions.

While Old Blade was entering the number, Wu Chen said a few more things to Old Blade, telling him exactly what to say to Old Blade Jiang Chuan.

The Old Blade didn't say anything, just nodded.

After entering the number, he looked up at Wu Chen and listened to Wu Chen finish speaking before dialing Jiang Chuan's number. He then put the phone on speakerphone, and the call connected quickly.

Hello!

Jiang Chuan answered the phone, but his tone remained impassive. In truth, he was quite shocked. He knew this was the number he had prepared to keep in the Safe House, and it was believed that only Old Blade could use it.

But isn't the Old Blade dead?

Jiang Chuan wasn't sure if Li Ruotai's people had gotten their hands on the phone card.

It's me!

Old Blade spoke, his voice low and trembling slightly; he was very weak and in pain.

Old Deng, are you still alive?

Jiang Chuan exclaimed in surprise.

It's me. I was rescued. I escaped from the hospital.

The Old Blade gave a brief explanation.

What exactly is going on with you guys?

Jiang Chuan thought for a moment and then asked.

You guys never beat Wu Chen?

Six or seven people couldn't defeat Wu Chen alone; they were all captured. Who's left alive?

It wasn't Wu Chen alone; Li Ruobin arrived with bodyguards.

We are no match for them. Wu Chen is indeed a formidable fighter. Your intelligence is definitely flawed.

The Old Blade was quite the actor; he spoke vaguely and even used foul language.

Jiang Chuan remained silent, wondering what exactly happened.

Didn't they all collapse in the elevator?

How can such a small space accommodate more people?

Could it be that the person was moved into the elevator later, Wu Chen deliberately staged the scene just to take that extremely frightening photo?

By the way, Master Chuan, during our operation, one of our members was unable to escape. I tried to take Li Ruobing hostage and almost hurt him. Will that cause any problems?

The Old Blade suddenly asked.

What did you say?

Jiang Chuan immediately exclaimed in shock that Li Ruobing had been taken hostage!

The Old Blade almost said "Oh my god" again, and then left.

Jing Chuan seemed to have gone mad, overwhelmed by an agitated rage that left him unsure how to curse the Old Blade. After calming down for a moment, he roared angrily, "Didn't I warn you not to touch Li Ruobing?"

Don't touch his mother!

If he's with Wu Chen, then don't make a move. I've already done it, and I still have to live!

Old Blade didn't mind Jiang Chuan's anger. He could still call Jiang Chuan "Chuan" as a compliment, because Jiang Chuan could bring him business.

That's what I've always called you.

Jiang Chu'an wanted to curse again; he was really going crazy because he could foresee the consequences.

Li Jia will definitely demand an explanation from Ding Jia, and the Ding Family must also give an explanation. However, the one who will pay the price will not be Ding Ruilong, but Jiang Chuan, who will kill him.

Master Chuan, please be polite to me.

The Old Blade, who had been scolded, spoke in a displeased tone, carefully crafting his manner.

I'm paid to do a job, and if your information is wrong, you're blaming me?

Let me warn you, I know all about the mess your Ding Family has made. And regarding Ang Tun's affair, I covered it up for your Ding Family back then. Do you really think I didn't find out?

If it weren't for our long-standing friendship, would you even know what I mean by "swallowing"?

Jiang Chuan abruptly interrupted the Old Blade priest, asking in surprise.

Old Blade's expression changed instantly. He glanced at Wu Chen again, having successfully extracted information from him.

Jiang Chuan's reaction has proven that what Wu Chen said is true.

In truth, Jiang Chuan was a very tight-lipped person, but now his mind was in turmoil, and he was somewhat indifferent. He knew that Old Blade had almost injured Li Ruobing, and the ultimate result would be Jiang Chuan's death. If he were working for someone else in the Ding Family, it wouldn't be so bad, but he worked for Ding Ruilong. He knew Ding Ruilong's character and methods all too well. Now that this had happened and he had to explain things to Li Jia, Ding Ruilong would definitely shift all the blame onto Jiang Chuan, killing him and using his life to explain things to Li Jia. It was Jiang Chuan's fault to begin with, and Jiang Chuan was already thinking about running away, subconsciously no longer considering the Ding Family.

The phone was on speakerphone, and Wu Chen could hear their conversation very clearly. After the Old Blade looked over, he gestured to Old Blade, and the Old Blade leaned forward and handed the phone to Wu Chen.

Huh?

Just as Jiang Chuan suddenly spoke up, "Jiang Chuan?"

Wu Chen smiled and spoke.

Jiang Chuan was taken aback. Why was the person changed?

Are there other people?

He immediately realized that he had heard that voice yesterday.

After Wu Chen and Old Blade Jiang Chuan advanced, they suddenly fell silent again. He thought that Old Blade hadn't run away, that Old Blade might have already cooperated with Wu Chen, and that if Wu Chen knew about the things the Ding Family had hired Old Blade to do, then Old Blade of the Ding Family was very trustworthy. Why couldn't Jiang Chuan understand this time? He didn't have time to think about it too much.

Ding Runlong isn't in Nanguang, is he? Did he go home to see his Old Master Ding?

Wu Chen asked with a smile, "You Jiang Chuan?" and then couldn't say anything more.

Wu Chen was right. Jiang Chuan returned to Nanguang last night. Ding Ruilong was already gone by then. He heard from others that he had urgent business and went back to his hometown to see his grandfather.

Jiang Chuan didn't know what the urgent matter was, guessing it involved Wu Chen, but the problem wasn't that serious.

Now he understood that it wasn't just Wu Chen almost got into trouble yesterday, but also Li Ruobing. The implications were completely different. Wu Chen wasn't a Li Family, and the Li Family might even want him dead because he affected the marriage alliance between the Li Family and Ding Family. But if Li Ruobing were hurt, it would directly undermine the very foundation of Lin Ying and could potentially lead to a complete falling out.

Wu Chen deliberately reminded him, making him overthink. Jiang Chuan was already feeling cold. He had arranged everything, and he had messed it up. He understood more and more that he would become a sacrifice to appease the Li Family's anger. He was just waiting for Ding Runlong to return to Nanguang, and he might personally kill him.

Good luck!

Wu Chen said one more thing, and then hung up the phone.

Jiang Chuan will not call back, nor will he inform the Ding Family. He will not tell anyone about the contents of today's phone call, because he has realized that he will have to take the blame and be sacrificed. No matter how much he cares for the Ding Family, it's too late now. He doesn't want to die. He still has a large sum of money in his foreign account that he hasn't spent yet. His wife and children are also abroad, and his son is studying at university in the America.

Jiang Chuan had followed Ding Ruilong for 10 years, and because he understood him, he was certain that he would be killed.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan's current thought must be to immediately avoid everyone in the Ding Family, to get rid of all his brothers and subordinates, and to run away as quickly as possible to get out of the country.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Chen took out his phone, opened the text message page, entered some information, but did not send it.

He then gave the phone to Old Blade at the address above.

Inside the room's drawer were several fake passports and fake ID cards that Jiang Chuan had obtained many years ago.

Wu Chen looked at Old Blade and smiled, saying that if Jiang Chuan wanted to escape the country, he would definitely go to this address first, and he would go alone to pick up his belongings.

Make arrangements so that your people in Nanguang can go and ambush Jiang Chuan first; they can capture him.

The Old Blade's men are mainly in Yun Province, but some are also in Nanguang City.

The Old Blade was someone who frequently changed his phone number, so it was impossible to find him directly after a long period of no contact. However, he could be contacted indirectly through his underlings. In addition, due to some business arrangements, he still had some people under his command in Nanguang, all of whom were ruthless and desperate criminals.

The Old Blade took the phone, looked at the address of the unsent text message, thought for a moment, and was about to enter the number when he saw it was on the Fifth Floor.

Hey, hurry up and grab your weapon, be careful.

A series of hurried footsteps echoed in the hallway outside the door, as if a group of people were running up, and their voices could be faintly heard.

Judging from what they said, they came here specifically for 501.

The Old Blade Daoist priest's expression suddenly turned sour as he looked at Wu Chen.

Wu Chen wasn't surprised by the Old Blade Daoist's strange expression.

Only a dozen minutes had passed since Wu Chen called Li Ruotai. Li Ruotai and the ambulance were certainly still on their way, but before that, Li Ruotai had already ordered everyone on the East Sea Road to search for the person.

Therefore, when Wu Chen called Li Ruotai and gave him the address, there must have been someone there.

Those who are closer to Twin Bridges should have arrived first to volunteer.

There was a sudden silence in the hallway outside Wu Chen's door, but it was clear that everyone had already reached the door and had fallen silent.

A knock sounded on the door, Wu Chen immediately got up, went to the door, and opened it.

Standing outside the door was a chubby, middle-aged man with a red face, his hands tucked into his pockets, clearly carrying a gun.

He was on guard for a moment when Wu Chen opened the door, but when he saw that it was Wu Chen who opened the door, he relaxed a lot.

Behind the red-faced fat man was a large group of men, more than a dozen in total, some of whom were standing on the stairs below.

Mr. Wu, the red-faced, chubby man, spoke in a low voice, his gaze still glancing towards the room behind Wu Chen.

He knew Wu Chen because Wu Chen was now very famous in the East Sea area, and some petty thugs might not even know what Wu Chen looked like.

Big thugs like the red-faced fat man definitely knew him, or at least had seen his picture.

This person's Dai Lin, and he was one of Zhao Guai's confidants.

Go downstairs and wait for the rest of the group to arrive. Tell them not to come up. We don't need that many people. Once everyone has left, let them go. Just be careful not to disturb the neighbors.

After Wu Chen opened the door, he greeted the leader.

Dai Lin agreed, not daring to say anything more.

Wu Chen closed the door, and then he could hear the chaotic footsteps coming downstairs outside.

Wu Chen returned to the sofa, sat down in his original spot, and looked at Old Blade. Old Blade knew everything was alright; it must have been Wu Chen's men who had come. He then focused his attention on the phone, checked the text messages, and entered a number to send the message.

After that, he dialed the number again.

"Brother Dao," a low male voice came from the phone.

Are you at Nanguang?

Old Blade asked.

How many brothers are with you?

There are six or seven so far, what's wrong, Brother Dao?

The other party is clearly unaware of Old Blade's connections in Nanguang.

Old Blade is in trouble, we won't know so quickly, and the Ding Family can't possibly notify them.

I just sent you an address; take your people there.

Jiang Chuan will be there soon, so you guys need to arrest him.

The Old Blade priest gave the instructions.

Find Master Chuan, brother. You should ask him fewer questions; he almost killed me. Remember to be clean; if there's anything left, don't hurt him.

Okay, don't worry, bro.

After making the arrangements, the Old Blade priest hung up the phone and looked at Wu Chen.

In fact, he wasn't acting on Wu Chen's orders. He wasn't Wu Chen's man yet; in fact, they were enemies.

The reason Wu Chen said he would do it was because Jiang Chuan had already admitted that Ding Ruilong killed Ang Tun. Jiang Chuan was an insider, so from the Old Blade's perspective, arresting Jiang Chuan would reveal the truth and what exactly happened.

When Wu Chen saw the Old Blade looking over, he immediately said that five years ago Ang Tun led people across the border to China to personally discuss business. He also directly told the Old Blade why Ding Ruilong killed Ang Cun.

One point worth mentioning is that the Golden Flower Group has absolutely no connection with drugs.

Yesterday at noon, Wu Chen mentioned it to Li Ruotai immediately misunderstood, thinking that Ding Runlong's cooperation with Golden Flower Group involved drugs.

Actually, he was wrong. He didn't know much about Myanmar because he saw no business dealings or conflicts of interest there. Like most people, when he thought of warlords in the Myanmar border region, he instinctively thought of drugs. This was wrong. The main area in Myanmar associated with drugs was the Golden Triangle region, not the Northern Myanmar region bordering China.

The small warlords in Northern Myanmar, whose source of profit and frequent conflicts are fighting over jade mines, are making huge profits from these mines. It's a risk-free business; the mines are there, and whoever controls them owns them.

Different warlord-controlled areas obtained profits in different ways. Some levied heavy taxes on mine owners, amounting to astronomical sums each year. In other areas, warlords directly controlled the mines. It is believed that 95% of the commercial-grade jadeite on the market comes from the United States. The United States has tens of thousands of jade mines, and the total profit from jade smuggling in the entire northern United States exceeds $30 billion annually.

Jinhua Group's business dealings with the domestic market mainly involve jade smuggling.

Five years ago, due to heightened security, Angcun Qinzi led a group of people across the border to Yun Province to discuss business and smooth things over. They also went to Nanguang afterward.

I don't know what got into him, but he actually wanted to cooperate with Ding Ruilong.

Ang Tun made the decision on his own, changing his itinerary at the last minute. He wanted to make a name for himself and build connections.

If he succeeds and gains the Ding Family's support, his status within the Golden Flower organization will be further enhanced.

Ding Ruilong doesn't get involved in smuggling. He has too many ways to make money, all through legal means, so there's no need for him to take such a risk.

However, the two still met once. Ding Ruilong refused Ang Cun to his face, as Ang Cun expressed his lack of interest.

Then, for some unknown reason, Ang Tun started threatening Ding Ruilong. Because Old Blade had done several favors for Ding Ruilong, and since Old Blade was Jin Hua's man, it was naturally Jin Hua who had helped Ding Runlong. Ang Tun was arrogant and didn't understand Ding Runlong, so he used those favors to blackmail Ding Runlong into cooperating with him. Ding Ruilong changed his attitude as a result, finally telling him he would consider it but needed to consult his Xiang Family. Ang Tun then left full of anticipation, wanting to go back and wait for news from Ding Ruilong, wanting to give his uncle a surprise.

He was on his way home, crossing the border from Yun Province back to Myanmar, when he was killed by men arranged by Yun Province Ding Ruilong. The killers included five people who were with him and Ang Tun himself, a total of six people.

The fact that the world was suddenly filled with light overnight was something Jiang Chuan personally led his men to do.

Ang Tun, a highly corrupt foreigner, always travels illegally near China. Ding Ruilong felt little psychological pressure arranging his assassination, as long as Jin Hua didn't find out who did it. Ang Tun's mistake was telling Ding Runlong the truth when they were talking. He had been tricked by Ding Runlong, letting Ding Ruilong know that Jin Hua didn't want to cooperate or threaten him; Ang Tun simply wanted to quietly get things done and return to the Demon Palace. That's why Ang Tun died.

The Golden Flower Group had no way of finding out who killed Ang Tun, because they didn't know that Ang Tun had contacted Ding Ruilong.

The Old Blade remained silent for a long time after listening. He understood that Ang Tun had brought this upon himself.

Actually, this whole thing can't be blamed on Ding Ruilong. It was Ang Tun who caused trouble and even damaged Jin Hua's reputation. He dared to use the past as leverage to betray his employer, and the Old Blade knew to do such a thing, which is quite in line with Ang Tun's style.

Ang Cun is a very ambitious and radical man. He wants to succeed his uncle General Kun Han, as the future leader of the Golden Flower Group.

While the Old Blade silent, Wu Chen took out his phone again, entered an international long-distance number, and dialed it. It took more than 10 seconds for the call to be answered.

The Old Blade is in my hands; consider the $100 million ransom.

Wu Chen said directly, a smile appearing on his face.

The person on the other end of the phone was Kunhan, the warlord Kun Han of the Golden Flower Group.

The Old Blade looked at Wu Chen with a completely stunned expression.
