Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 407 Support
After hearing what Chen Chuan said, Lan Xinnan realized that what he said to her before was obviously not just some polite talk. She felt a little relieved and told him in detail about the difficulties she was facing now.

In fact, things are not complicated, because the lower city has a dense tunnel system that can reach almost every area of ​​the upper city.

There is also the largest black market in the entire central city. The lower city has some necessities that need to be purchased from the upper city, so there are many people engaged in logistics business in this area.

Lutong Logistics was originally one of several large teams, but in recent years it has encountered several serious problems, one of which was the loss of an extremely important cargo.

After paying a huge amount of compensation, internal conflicts arose over the distribution of interests, which led to the split of the team.

A more important team of people was directly poached by the competitor Poison Ant Express. To make matters worse, the team's original supervisor and financial staff disappeared, and the entire logistics organization came to a halt. The remaining people then had to find their own ways out.

Lan Xinnan was originally a security guard. Together with some people who were reluctant to leave, she took over the original business and tried to restore part of the business. Although it is not as good as before, it can still be done in some areas because of its previous reputation.

However, Poison Ant Express did not stop there and has been using violence to expel and suppress them, especially in the past two months, when they have been attacked many times in succession.

If it weren't for the fact that they had a third-level fighting master named Lao Bian in their team, the opponent would have been a little cautious, and the team itself was composed of a large number of security personnel who were very experienced in dealing with low-intensity battles, they might not have been able to hold on.

However, Lao Bian is also unreliable.

This third-level fighter had a big appetite and kept asking them for various supplies and money, but he never actually took the initiative to attack once. He always waited for others to come to him before stepping forward to mediate.

This time, because what Lao Bian asked for was beyond their bottom line, Lan Xinnan didn't plan to continue cooperating with him.

Chen Chuan thought about it and said, "I want to ask a question. Lutong Logistics was able to grow to such a large scale before, so it must have been backed by certain forces. Who were the original supporters behind you?"

Lan Xinnan said: "Our original supporter was the Iron Fist Club, but the Iron Fist Club no longer exists. I don't know the specific situation, I only know that when our Lutong Logistics encountered problems, they were already overwhelmed and later dispersed faster than us.

The supporter of the Iron Fist Club seems to be the Jinyu Company. I only heard it mentioned by my seniors, so I am not sure. "

Chen Chuan thought about it. There were quite a few companies in the central city, and the Bureau was mainly concerned with large and medium-sized companies. However, he happened to have some impression of this Jinyu Company because it was a security company.

All companies that have anything to do with force, regardless of size, are under the Bureau's attention. This company happens to be somewhat involved with Lianwei Zhongyu. It seems that it encountered some trouble years ago and has now been acquired by Lianwei Zhongyu.

This is no wonder, as many gangs rely on companies to provide financial and technical support, and all businesses in the downtown area can only grow with the support of gangs. Once they lose their military power and financial backers, they are like meat on the chopping board, waiting to be divided up.

He said, "I roughly understand. How many third-level fighters are there on the other side?"

"How many? No, only one."

Lan Xinnan thought for a moment and said, "Brother Chen, the resources in the Lower City cannot be compared with those in the Upper City. Most third-level fighters are supported by large gangs and teams. If Lutong Logistics had not had a large business in the past, they might not have been able to hire someone like Lao Bian."

She was a little helpless. "That's why I always tolerated Lao Bian, because we really couldn't find anyone without them."

Chen Chuan said, "One?" He thought for a moment, "I can help you solve this problem. But have you ever thought that even if you solve it, as long as you don't have enough support behind you, you will encounter such a thing again in the future. Even if it's not Poison Ant Express, there will be other forces that will target you."

Lan Xinnan said frankly: "I have thought about this issue. Brother Chen, if you are willing, after this matter is resolved, we would like to borrow your name to deter others.

During this period, we will give you a portion of our extra income. Although our business is not as good as before, as long as we can make it, we can provide a lot of resources. We will take this time to contact some forces to join us, so that we can stabilize the team. "

Chen Chuan nodded slightly. Lan Xinnan's ideas were relatively clear. He knew what the key points were and also thought of what to do next. Whether he could do it or not was not discussed for now, but at least this approach was feasible.

He said, "I need some information about the third-level fighter behind the Poison Ant Express. And also about Lao Bian. Give me a copy as well."

He will not underestimate any opponent. If he can know some information in advance, it will be easier to solve the problem. He will not reject any labor-saving methods. Moreover, the cleaner and more efficient the solution, the higher the deterrent effect on the outside world.

Lan Xinnan heard him say this and knew that he had clearly agreed. She said, "Old Bian's information...Brother Chen said that he would be bad for us?"

Chen Chuan looked at her and said, "I don't know what he will choose, but we must be prepared first."

Lan Xinnan actually had concerns in this regard in her heart, but since she had made up her mind, she would not back down. She originally wanted to remind Chen Chuan, but the latter thought of it one step ahead, which made her feel that Chen Chuan was very reliable.

She said decisively, "Okay! I'll go collect it right away. If Brother Chen needs anything else..." She clicked on the lower realm pass and applied for a contact with Chen Chuan, "Just tell me directly." Chen Chuan added the contact and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll find Captain Lan if there's anything."

Lan Xinnan is a decisive person. After talking to Chen Chuan, he immediately went to find several leaders of the team.

After everyone arrived, she did not talk about looking for Chen Chuan first, but instead mentioned that Lao Bian proposed to add another 20%. As soon as these words came out, it was like a pot of boiling water exploded. Xiao Ding was the first to jump up and express his disagreement.

Others also said that Lao Bian had gone too far this time. The team had already been pushed to the limit and they had given in as much as they could, but they were still not satisfied.

Seeing the crowd excited, Lan Xinnan then told Chen Chuan how she had persuaded him to take action.

The few people couldn't help but get excited. Lao Cao asked in surprise: "Xiao Nan, is Brother Chen willing to help? Did you try to persuade him just now?"

Lan Xinnan shook his head and said, "I didn't convince him. It was Brother Chen who was willing to help us because of Master and Xiao Ke's feelings."

"So it's Mr. Yu's favor."

Everyone thought about it, and it was true. How could a third-level fighter with a serious identity in the Upper City District be interested in such a small thing? This time, he was probably willing to take action out of favor.

Sister Yun said, "I'll tell you, it's better to find someone who's suitable. Old Bian is unreliable."

Xiao Ding was the most excited: "Yes, I have long disliked that old man, Old Bian. Now that we have dumped him, we don't have to worry about his face anymore."

Old Shen was in charge of finance. He didn't understand fighting and didn't know how to distinguish between strong and weak fighters. He was a little worried. He said, "Xiao Nan, that little brother Chen looks very young. Is he okay?"

In fact, it wasn't just him. Lao Cao and Sister Yun also felt a little uneasy. After all, they knew nothing about Chen Chuan, and the fighters from Poison Ant Express were said to be extremely fierce. Lao Bian had emphasized to them several times that this man was very strong, so after such a long time, they all had psychological trauma.

Lan Xinnan was very confident in Chen Chuan. After all, she had seen the video of the fight between Chen Chuan and Wei Wusheng. Although she was only at the second level, as a fighter, she could see some tricks and naturally had a standard for judgment in her heart.

She said in a very confident tone: "Uncle Shen, Lao Cao, Sister Yun, don't worry, Brother Chen will be fine. He will definitely be able to deal with the man from Poison Ant Express."

"That's good, that's good."

After hearing her say this, although they were still a little nervous, they felt a little more at ease.

Lan Xinnan discussed with everyone and carefully arranged some follow-up things to do. Then she came alone to an open space far away from everyone and contacted Lao Bian.

At first, there was a sound of waiting in an old drama. After a while, the call was connected and Lao Bian's voice came out: "Xiao Nan, what do you think? The person on the other end is talking to me again. This time the situation is different from the past. You have to think it through."

Lan Xinnan said, "Uncle Bian, we have already discussed this matter. We feel bad about this matter as it may cause you to fight against the other fighters. So we decided not to trouble you and we will handle it ourselves."

"...Xiao Nan, if you think that the 20% increase is too high, Uncle Bian can find a way to reduce it a little bit because of our past favors..."

Lan Xinnan said seriously: "No, I can't let you, Uncle Bian, suffer any loss. Uncle Bian, you were right before. If it weren't for the favors in the past, you could go anywhere. There's no need to spend time on us, the younger generations.

Uncle Bian, we have really been a burden to you these days. Now we have figured it out. We should handle our own affairs ourselves and not trouble Uncle Bian anymore."

“……” There was silence on the other end, and then the call ended.

After Lan Xinnan ended the call, he turned around and walked back with firm steps towards the place where the lights of the convoy were gathered.

Opposite Jie Ping, Uncle Bian was sitting there with a gloomy face. He looked like an old man in his fifties, but his actual age was sixty-nine. However, his slightly loose skin still wrapped around his strong muscles.

He sneered, "Want to kick me out? That's not that easy!"
