The white-clothed woman continued, "Three rounds of stabbing, three rounds of chasing, three more rounds of soul-chasing and life-stealing, and if all those fail, then it's the ultimate massacre of the city."

That is to say, there would be a total of ten attacks. According to their escalating ratio, the number of people involved in the tenth attack would definitely be a terrifying figure. But Zhan Feilong still scornfully retorted with a hardened face: "If it's just a bunch of rubbish, no matter how many there are, it's useless!"

Zhan Feilong's purpose with this remark was to stimulate the two assassins to "put more heart" into it, but unfortunately, the two people opposite him sneered at his words. They didn't take him seriously at all.

Yang Ju moved closer to Zhan Feilong's ear and muttered softly, "Brother Long, didn't the media cause a stir a while ago about the assassination of the president of Jun Country? You can't be unaware of that."

"Yes, of course, I know that. Those assassins were the real experts!" Zhan Feilong said as if it were obvious.

Yang Ju whispered, "It was the people from Broken Soul Mountain who did that!"

"What?" Zhan Feilong was greatly startled, his complexion changed drastically, and he regarded the two people in front of him as if they were devils. This group was damn brutal. But eventually, Zhan Feilong summoned the courage and asked with a hardened face, "Which wave of assassination was successful?"

"The seventh batch succeeded," the white-clothed woman said with considerable pride. This matter was the biggest deal Broken Soul Mountain had in over a hundred years. It was a source of pride for all Broken Soul Mountain people.

"Okay, okay, then I'll sign the deal right now." Zhan Feilong hesitated no more. With these fierce demons taking action, killing Zhu Bufan would be as simple as squashing an ant.

Zhan Feilong successfully signed the deal, Yang Ju took the paper to show the two people a glance, and the middle-aged man and woman hurried off. Yang Ju had already informed them of the assassination target's details ahead of time.

After returning home, Zhu Bufan performed surgery on the Black Heart Moles on Du Yujiao's leg. Afterwards, everyone was dragged by Du Yujia to the side of Chunjiang River, because today was the official start of operations at Chunjiang Pier.

The pier would still take some time to be fully constructed, but Chunjiang New Village had been vandalized by Bald Strong and others a few days ago, and now its reputation was tarnished. There had to be some "positive events" to counteract the bad press, to suppress the gloom. Chunjiang Pier was definitely a powerful "signboard."

Chunjiang New Village was not far from the downtown area, but the Chunjiang River was quite wide, and there were no bridges nearby, which turned Chunjiang New Village into an isolated island. Building a bridge would be too costly, but taking a detour every day wasn't a solution either. If boats could operate normally, it would definitely be perfect.

There were two medium-sized yachts, acting as the "passenger ferries" connecting both sides. For one yuan, you could take the boat across the river, and if you returned on the same day, you could ride back for free. Each boat could seat 15 people, and with round trips, it was indeed quite interesting.

Because the boat fare was so "cheap," there were quite a few young people who specially came over to ride the boat.

Zhu Bufan questioned from the bow of the boat, "Auntie, isn't your pricing strategy too low? One yuan per person for a round trip, the money won't even cover fuel costs!"

"Ah, you don't understand this." Du Yujia hurried to explain, "If people cross the river through Chunjiang Third Bridge, they don't have to pay a cent. If we go by reasoning, we shouldn't charge anything to be competitive with the Third Bridge."

This is true, the purpose of your pier and boat is to serve as a "bridge" for people. For those who have settled here again, they need to take the boat across the river every day. If you charge too much, you'll definitely cause them some psychological distress.

Zhan Feiyu saw that there were quite a few people crowded at the opposite pier and asked with some concern, "Auntie, there's a huge crowd over there wanting to take the boat. Our two boats won't be enough, will they?"

"Oh, there are actually three water buses in total. The third hasn't arrived today. If all three boats were in operation, we could achieve a cycle of about three minutes, almost like buses, which is enough to handle the passenger flow. Besides these three big boats, there are also over a dozen small speedboats, so if someone's in a hurry, they could just take a speedboat."

Great, we have it all! The big boats are water buses, and the small speedboats are like water taxis. The bus costs one yuan to cross the river, while the speedboat charges by distance. For a single trip across, it's just a starting fare of five yuan. It's just like taking a taxi.

Everyone on the big boat gazed at the waterscape, when suddenly a crisp shout came from below: "Hey, Boss Zhu, long time no see!"

Turning around, it was none other than the wealthy sister Zhang Qianguo on a speedboat calling out to them, but Zhang Qianguo wasn't looking to cross the river; she was simply out enjoying a ride on the water. A speedboat costs two yuan per kilometer, which is nothing to her. Just having some fun.

"Great, have a good time, Sister Qianguo." Zhu Bufan responded from afar, but he didn't notice that Du Yujiao and Zhan Feiyu, right behind him, had faces twisted like bitter gourds. The way he called 'Sister Qianguo' really melted hearts, ugh!

Zhang Qianguo saw there was a crowd of people standing behind Zhu Bufan and didn't chit-chat too much with him, bursting into a round of girlish laughter. Her speedboat raced upstream.

Everyone took the boat together to the other side of the river. Just as they disembarked on this side, a dozen more people sprang out from Chunjiang Pier, stuffing the small boat to capacity.

Boats are different from cars. Overloaded cars can still drive on roads, but boats have a fixed design weight capacity. If you load too much and sink this metal boat, that's dangerous. No need for supervision; once the boat is full, the remaining people can only retreat to the pier to wait for the next one.

Du Yujiao said with interest, "Yujia, you did this on purpose, right? Having only two out of three boats delivered, you just wanted these people to stay on the pier a bit longer, didn't you?"

"Hehe..." Du Yujia smiled faintly, not saying a word.

Using the name of taking a boat to bring people over, then with the excuse of "waiting for the boat" to keep them fixed at the pier, where there were plenty of advertisements and murals; well, you've got to look at these ads whether you like it or not!

In the afternoon, everyone was on the other side of the river. Isn't there a Chunjiang New City over here? The construction has been going on for a while now, vibrant and thriving. It's a good opportunity to take a look at how everybody's investments are doing.

At dusk, Zhu Bufan suddenly received a call from Zhang Qianguo. She claimed that Ouyang Guodong's condition had suddenly worsened and urged him to come take a look. Zhu Bufan immediately dropped what he was doing and left in a hurry.

Du Yujiao adamantly followed, but by the time she caught up to him, Zhu Bufan had already boarded a speedboat.

She waved and called from the shore for a long time but was unable to stop him. Obviously, this matter was indeed "urgent."

"Mom, why don't we follow and take a look? Zhu Bufan is heading to Ouyang Guodong's place. Seeing how he's been exchanging glances with Zhang Qianguo, it's definitely not going to be a good thing. If it were, he wouldn't be avoiding you!"
