Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang

#791 - Arriving in London, reactions from all sides

"Senior Brother Zhang, we are unfamiliar with this place now. Where should we go to find the Shasun family?" Lu Jin said.

"If you want to find the trace of the Shasun family, it's easy. Just catch a few tongues and ask them, right?" Lu Ci said as a matter of course.

"Where is the tongue?" Tian Jinzhong asked curiously.

"No need to look for clues, it's actually very simple. The Shasun family has a company here. We can just ask someone and we'll know!" Zhang Zhiwei said.

"What's the name of their company? Me?" Lu Jin asked.

"When I came here, I asked Fatty, and he called it David Sassoon Company!" Zhang Zhiwei said.

"Is it so simple and direct?" Lu Jin asked in surprise.

"It's normal that foreigners have no cultural background!" said Lu Ci.

"Although the name is not very good, its scale is very large. In addition to opium, it also involves the trade of various commodities, such as precious metals, silk, gum, spices, wool, wheat, etc. It is very easy to find them." Zhang Zhiwei said.

At this moment, a foreigner with blond hair, blue eyes, gold-rimmed glasses and a neat suit suddenly walked out of the villa next door.

The foreigner glanced at Zhang Zhiwei and his group, with disgust and fear in his eyes.

Lu Ci poked Lu Jin's shoulder and said, "Although I have learned English, my spoken English is not very good. If I curse someone, it will be ridiculous. You are so hypocritical. You have a high level of English, but you dress like a fake foreigner all day long? Come on, curse him in English. Remember, you have to show your strength."

"How can you show your strength?" Lu Jin whispered, "This foreigner's broken language is not very good at cursing."

After thinking for a while, Lu Jin said to the foreigner:

"What are you looking at, you four-eyed ghost? If you look again, I'll blow your eyes out."

The foreigner was stunned for a moment, his eyes were fierce, and he was about to scold, but after looking at Zhang Zhiwei and Tian Jinzhong, he suddenly paused, then became afraid and hurried away.

Lu Ci looked at Lu Jin with disdain: ""

"Senior Brother Zhang, this foreigner seems to be afraid of you." Lu Jin said.

"Isn't it normal that the foreigner is afraid of Senior Brother Zhang?" Lu Ci said.

"It's not quite normal, because the look in his eyes when he looked at me was also full of fear. Do I look scary?" Tian Jinzhong asked back.

He is a very self-aware person. Whether from his appearance or his height and body shape, he looks harmless and it is impossible for him to scare people at first sight, unless...

Tian Jinzhong touched his hair and the Taoist robe on his body. Unless his dress was scary, what was scary about a Taoist priest?

At this time, Zhang Zhiwei pointed to a huge billboard in the distance and said:

There was also a somewhat abstract figure painted on the billboard. He was tall, thin, and bald, with a pair of narrow eyes with long upturned eyebrows that emitted green light. He moved silently like a cat, and his whereabouts were secretive, as terrifying as Satan.

Behind this person, there is a Taoist priest with a cow-nose bun, wearing a Taoist robe, with a sharp face and a mean and sinister look, a eunuch wearing an official robe of the previous dynasty, with a shadow on his face, and a citizen with a yin-yang hairstyle and wide-set eyes who wants to take a taxi...

From time to time, audience members came out of the theater and cried out in fear when they saw the devil with slanted eyes on the wooden sign.

"Good boy, I finally know that the foreigner is afraid of us. We are dressed the same as the Taoist priests on the sign." Tian Jinzhong suddenly realized, and then said: "Behind those scary ugly Taoist priests with wide-set eyes, there are some lines of bird language. I don't understand. Can anyone tell me what it says?"

Zhang Zhiwei could understand English. After reading it once, he said, "It says that this is the evil person who caused the Boxer Rebellion in East Asia. He has evil magic and can take away people's souls even if they are thousands of miles away. It also says that they regard foreigners as evil spirits and railways as ghost roads. What they like most is to slaughter white people."

Tian Jinzhong: “…………”

"No wonder that foreigner was scared when he saw us. But isn't this just the thief crying thief?" he said speechlessly.

"This is a vilification and slander of us, and it also reflects their fear and discrimination against us," Zhang Zhiwei said calmly.

"If they keep promoting this, then whatever evil they do to us in the future may even be seen as a just act by their people," Lu Jin said.

"What they think, and what their people think, is not important. Since he is afraid, then I am here." Zhang Zhiwei walked towards the theater.

"Senior brother, are we going to demolish this theater?" Tian Jinzhong asked from behind.

"Why tear it down? Does it have anything to do with us?" Zhang Zhiwei said.

"So what are we going to do?"

"Go grab the tongue."

Zhang Zhiwei walked over and used his blue hand to control a white man who was well-dressed and looked quite prestigious. He read some of his memories and gained a general understanding of the situation in London, including some of the Sassoon family's businesses and their base camp.

"Let's go, let's find the Sassoon family. After we're done with them, we'll go to Nason Island." Zhang Zhiwei said.

"Brother Zhang, London seems to be the territory of the Royal Anglican Knights. Didn't they make peace with us last time? Wouldn't it be too unruly for us to enter without notice now?" Lu Jin said.

"It's not good to be too particular about rules, especially other people's rules," Zhang Zhiwei said.

"Our rules are rules, and other people's rules are bullshit." Lu Ci laughed from behind.

Afterwards, the group headed towards the location of the Shasun family. On the way, Zhang Zhiwei opened the Tiantong Qimen and cast some magic to conceal everyone's figures and breath.

Because he came via the Floo Network, Zhang Zhiwei felt that he was being watched almost as soon as he landed. It was not that someone was following him, but some more bizarre means. Because there were too many eyes on him, Zhang Zhiwei did not retaliate one by one, but simply disappeared.

"What happened? Why did he disappear in plain sight of everyone?"

"What is this person doing here? What is his conspiracy?"

"According to the news from the Institute of Magic, he came here to look for Isaac."

"Isaac, Isaac, how did this guy get involved with this Eastern devil? And where is Isaac doing? Ask him to keep an eye on this dangerous guy."

"Isaac went to Nathan Island!"

"What is he going to do on Nathan Island? Those Muggles are trying to take over Nathan Island, why would he go there to join in the fun? It's not like he doesn't know the truth about Nathan Island."

"Because he got the news that Gellert had gone, so he followed him."

"It's a terrible thing. Isaac is not here. How and in what capacity should we deal with this person?"

"From the current information, apart from a few ignorant Japanese wizards from the Magic House who attacked him, we have no grudge against him. In fact, for the sake of Isaac and Newt, we still have some friendship. So, there is no need to worry too much about his threat. There are other people to worry about."

"In that case, do we need to send someone to contact him?"

"There's no need. Although he has no grudge against us, he has deep grudges against other forces, especially the God's Church. Although we also have a bad relationship with the God's Church and they burned many people to death in the past, the relationship between the two sides has eased over the years. There's no need to offend them for an Oriental man."

"That's right. To use a phrase from China, it's like sitting on the other side of the mountain and watching tigers fight on this side of the mountain. Fuck, why do I have to say so many words for a phrase that only uses a few words from China?"

Under the arcades of Regent Street, the neon lights glowed in the mist, casting spots of peacock blue and rose gold.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

From time to time, cars and double-decker buses passed by. Zhang Zhiwei and his group were walking on the road. Zhang Zhiwei was holding the "Times" in his hand. The front-page headline on it was printed with the glorious announcement of the "Great Britain National Exhibition".

Looking around, you can see foreigners wearing gentleman's hats, suits and ties, with big bellies, as well as ladies wearing dresses and dressed exquisitely.

Looking into the distance, there is the stock exchange, various Catholic churches, and beautifully shaped shop fronts along the street.

Everything around him gave Zhang Zhiwei an inexplicable illusion that he was decades or even hundreds of years in the future, until he passed by Chinatown and saw some messy scenes there, which brought him back to the present.

Lu Jin, Lu Ci and others looked at the various signs written in Cantonese in Chinatown. They couldn't help but feel moved when they saw familiar things from their hometown in a foreign country.

"It seems to be a gathering place for people from the Dragon Country. Do you want to go in and take a look?" Lu Jin asked.

"It looks very interesting inside, why don't we go in and take a look?" Tian Jinzhong said.

"What are you doing? We have to do serious work now. Let's confiscate the property and destroy the family. Stop saying things that will affect morale." Lu Ci said.

Zhang Zhiwei gazed at Chinatown. Chinatown, no matter what the subject matter or occasion, was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

After all, how can one seize a piece of land in a foreign country, not be assimilated into the culture, and have everyone be one of his own people? Without some skills, how can one do that?

He could indeed clearly feel the various chaotic Qi coming from inside, which meant that the proportion of extraordinary people inside was very high, but there were not many powerful ones.

Lu Ci and Lu Jin also noticed it, and Lu Jin was very interested.

Lu Ci slapped the ground with his palm, and the Ruyi Force penetrated into it in the form of sound waves. After exploring it for a while, he lost interest.

"They are just a bunch of losers, not worth mentioning." Lu Ci said.

Zhang Zhiwei said: "Not entirely, there are still a few strong ones inside, but they are hiding very deeply, and their Qi is not leaking out. They should be hermits like the landlords of Pig Cage Village."

"I didn't even notice it. It seems he is quite capable." Lu Ci said, but they did not stop and went straight to the manor of the Shasun family.

Meanwhile, in Trent Park, Enfield, north London.

This is an important place for the Sassoon family. Usually they are scattered all over the world and only gather here during a few important festivals. However, David Sassoon, the patriarch of the Sassoon family, has always lived here.

At this moment, members of the Sassoon family gathered in the reception room, with the heavy oak door closed tightly, isolating them from the noise from the outside world.

Inside the room, the flame in the fireplace flickered slightly, and the air was filled with cigar smoke and the aroma of whiskey.

David Sassoon sat at the head of the long table, brows furrowed, his eyes sweeping over everyone at the table, his younger brother Albert, nephew Victor, and several core members of the family.

"What happened to call us together so suddenly?" Albert asked.

"I have an informant at the Magic Academy, and I just received news that the leader of Tiantong...he has come to London."

David's voice was a little low and hoarse, and every word carried a heavy burden.

"Tian...Tiantong Sect Leader...why is he here...what is he doing here?"

David Dao, brother, Albert couldn’t help but ask, with a tremor in his voice.

These days, they have been using their connections to block the Tiantong Church in business, causing a lot of trouble for the Tiantong Church.

He actually knew how powerful the Tiantong Sect Leader was, but when he was doing these things, he always believed that a big shot like the Tiantong Sect Leader would not cause trouble for him over such a small matter. Even if he did cause trouble, he had the Royal Anglican Knights and his brother to support him. But he did not expect that the other party would appear in London so openly.

He said in a trembling voice: "What does he want to do? Is it to... settle accounts with us? But this is the place of the Royal Church Knights. Isn't he afraid of being settled by the Knights?"

The room was silent, with only the crackling of the fire in the fireplace echoing. Everyone in the Shasun family knew that much of the wealth they had accumulated in the East was built on the blood and tears of the opium trade, and Tiantong Sect Leader, the powerful man in the East, was a person who hated opium.

"I don't know his purpose either." David's face was a little uneasy, but his tone was still calm. "He might be coming for us, or for other reasons, but we must be prepared. His strength... cannot be underestimated."

"How to prepare? His power...we can't contend with it at all." There was a hint of despair in Albert's voice.

"This is London," David said calmly, "not his territory. We have our resources and allies here. By the way, what did the Royal Anglican Knights say? Have they responded to us?"

As soon as David learned that the leader of Tiantong had arrived in London, he informed his butler Walter.

Albert said, "Walter hasn't replied to us yet. He said Hircine is holding a meeting of the Knights of the Round Table to discuss how to deal with the leader of Tiantong. He will inform us when the results come out."

Nephew Victor said in a panic: "In the meantime, are we just going to wait for news here?"

David shook his head: "No, it's not safe here anymore. Let's go to the secret base first. There is an alchemical matrix guarding it. The Tiantong Sect Master can't find us. We will wait for news there."
