Chapter 525 : A New Love

• This was almost exactly as Ding Ningqiu had previously speculated in her mind. Judging from the respectful manner of Xie Dingzhang Biao and the others towards Bai Ye, one could guess what kind of person Bai Ye was.
• "It was precisely by leveraging his political resources that Bai Ye swallowed up six or seven small gangs within just one week, gradually establishing his prestige in Jiangling," Xie Ding recounted. "Over a decade ago, the public security in Jiangling was very poor, with frequent gang fights on the streets. After Bai Ye emerged in Jiangling, he continued to absorb other gangs, allowing his followers to enjoy wealth and prosperity while those who resisted him ended up dead on the streets. This bloody period lasted for over a year, during which Bai Ye had already absorbed dozens of large and small gangs, becoming the largest gang in Jiangling."
• Xie Ding leisurely lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then slowly continued, "After that, Bai Ye completely took over the underground world of Jiangling. Anyone who caused trouble would only have one way to go, and that was death. With the world under his control, public security improved significantly. In those past years, Bai Ye had absolute control over resources. Although our gangs were not incorporated by him, if we wanted to sell our goods, we could only do so through his resources. This situation continued for several years until other gangs or organizations dared to secretly sell their own goods."
