Immortal Master Invincible

Chapter 1357 Alien World (275)

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Pang Xiaonan would not have believed that such a dilapidated shanty town existed in the Horama City he founded.

Shanty towns generally refer to simple houses and shacks with wooden planks, adobe, and thick brick walls as load-bearing structures, and linoleum or asbestos tiles as roofing materials; there are also small bungalows that are low-lying and prone to waterlogging, and lack complete infrastructure.

However, these shanty town houses in Horama City really opened Pang Xiaonan's eyes. There are not only houses made of planks and bricks, but also houses made of iron and bark. The most primitive structure is the one made of wood. The wooden houses built with trees and thatch really have the characteristics of the Horama Mountains, using local materials.

This shantytown lacks planning and is built illegally by the poor who poured in from all over the country. There are various hidden dangers. The distribution of houses is messy and uneven. There are too many inclined roads, dead ends, and arc roads. The structure is simple and poor in disaster resistance, that is, earthquake resistance , poor fire prevention and flood control, crowded living, poor function, poor living environment, no roads, no greening, no public activity venues, poor lighting and ventilation...

If it is not forced by life, who would want to live in such a place?
Walking on the crowded street, Pang Xiaonan felt that it was time to improve the living environment in the shanty town after arresting the drug dealers.

Human beings are born free and equal, and everyone is aiming at a common goal, gathering from all corners of the country to Horama City, why is there a hierarchy?Pang Xiaonan made up his mind to give the shanty town a better future.

The transformation of shantytowns can also reduce the occurrence of crime, because shantytowns have always been synonymous with slums, and slums are the soil where crimes breed, and these crimes must be eradicated.

Pang Xiaonan walked north along the narrow street, and finally came to a bustling restaurant with a signboard on it, which read "Red Sun Restaurant" in four bright red characters.

Although the shantytowns are dilapidated, they are very lively. This is like the urban village in Huahai City. Although the living environment is not very good, it has the largest number of migrants.

But there are no aborigines in Horama City, and all of them are immigrants. It just means that the rich immigrants live in the neat community planned by the developer.

The immigrant population without money is crowded in this dirty and messy shanty town.

However, no matter which city it is, the poor always make up the majority. Therefore, the shantytowns in Horama City have gathered almost 70% of the labor force in this emerging city.

It is around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the white-collar workers have just left work, and many people in the shantytowns are going to work late, so the business of the restaurants is very good, especially the first floor of the Red Sun Restaurant, where they serve buffets.

15 yuan per person, all you can eat, there are many dishes, there is always something suitable for you.

Pang Xiaonan tried his best to smell it. The smell of the food was very fragrant, and it had already overwhelmed the foul smell from a trash can on the corner of the street not far away.

"No wonder the business is so good." Pang Xiaonan lowered his head and entered this bustling fly restaurant. There were people from various countries, white skin, black skin, and yellow skin.

No one noticed Pang Xiaonan's downfall because he put on a mask today.

"It's too difficult for me." Pang Xiaonan scratched the seam where the mask and the face bordered. The mask cost him several thousand yuan, but it was still not as good as his real leather. Every time he wore it for a long time, it became a little small itching.

Pang Xiaonan tried to walk around the streets of Horama City without wearing a mask two days ago, but he didn't expect that his fame had spread from the big city of Du's family to this newly built fringe area, and many people pulled him to sign.

Someone even shouted excitedly: "Wow, Pang Xiaonan, I never thought that I would meet a big star every time I travel to Horama. This trip is worth it!"

The man held up the small flag of the tour guide, calling the tourists behind him to pay attention to Pang Xiaonan.

Pang Xiaonan was immediately surrounded by a group of people, and it took him a long time to escape.

Afterwards, Pang Xiaonan thought, if he became the tourism ambassador of Horama, would it make Horama more popular?
Don't think about it that way, arresting drug dealers is the most important thing now, if the law and order in Horama City is not improved, no matter how famous they are, they will only do bad things.

Behind a counter near the main entrance of the Red Sun Restaurant, a middle-aged woman was sitting with a conspicuous red headband on her curly hair.

Obviously, this is the proprietress.

Customers who file in will hand over 15 yuan to the proprietress, or pay 15 yuan by electronic payment. At this time, the proprietress will take out a red meal ticket and hand it to the customer.

With this meal ticket, the customer can go to the area where the food is ordered, and hand the ticket to the aunt in the canteen, and she will make food for you on the plate as appropriate.

"Madam, are there any private rooms?" Pang Xiaonan gave the lady boss a friendly smile, showing her eight teeth.

"Yes, handsome guy, go upstairs, someone will come to order later." The proprietress didn't move, she just yelled into the hall, "Zhen, order on the second floor!"

"Then I'll go upstairs and have a look first." Pang Xiaonan turned and walked towards the stairs. The stairs are in the left corner of the hall. The wooden handrails and steps are so narrow that they can only go up to the width of one person.

Pang Xiaonan stepped on the stairs, and the rotten wood creaked. Pang Xiaonan was really worried that the stairs would collapse at any time.

For those who are accustomed to living in big cities, it really takes a little courage to go up to the second floor of the Red Sun Restaurant, because it really makes people feel a sense of fear of crossing a single-plank bridge.

After finally going up to the second floor, Pang Xiaonan looked around and found that it was exactly as Davao Khan said. This is a hall surrounded by four private rooms, two private rooms in the direction of the street, and two private rooms in the direction of the back mountain. private room.

Of the two private rooms on the mountain side, one of the doors was closed, and the door of the other private room was open, and there was no one in it.Pang Xiaonan intuitively believed that the private room with the door closed was the place where the drug dealers had their rounds.

But he walked to one of the private rooms on the street, opened the door, and walked in.

This private room has a window facing the alley, through the window, Pang Xiaonan saw the police detectives patrolling the street.

Before departure, all the investigators met face to face, and Pang Xiaonan knew every face of them.

Pang Xiaonan took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, "Hey, when did the grass carp enter the hole?"

In order to prevent criminals from eavesdropping, code words were used in this operation contact.

Grass Carp refers to drug traffickers, and Dong refers to Red Sun Restaurant.

"Five fish came in at about five o'clock, and four at five-twenty."

Pang Xiaonan looked at the time on his phone, it was now 28:[-].

The Red Sun Restaurant, where the four drug dealers only entered at [-]:[-], should not be able to conduct transactions so quickly. First, it takes a few minutes to greet each other and order food.

Pang Xiaonan planned to stay in this private room for a while.

As for how to grasp the trading time of drug dealers, Pang Xiaonan has full confidence.

Pang Xiaonan opened the door of this private room, and the door was facing the opposite private room with the closed door, and then, Pang Xiaonan released his spiritual consciousness.

A few seconds later, Pang Xiaonan opened his eyes. As he expected, there were nine "grass carp" hidden in the opposite room. They were still sitting quietly on the chairs, as if they were chatting.

At this time, there was a creaking sound from the stairs, and a young woman came up with a menu and appeared in front of Pang Xiaonan.

"Hello, what would you like to order?"

The uniform worn by the waitress was stained with oil, which made people more appetizing. The menu she handed over was also mottled, and it was unknown how many people had passed by.

Pang Xiaonan took the menu, but didn't look at it, but stared at the waitress and asked, "Ah Zhen, are you A Zhen?"

The waitress nodded, expressionless: "Handsome guy, I'm at work, if you want to ask me out, please wait until after get off work time."

There are little freckles on Ah Zhen's face, and her simple appearance is very similar to the big sparrow that is usually seen in the Khorama Mountains rummaging for food in the garbage dump.

"Oh, Azhen, you misunderstood. I'm not asking you out, I just want to ask you, have all the guests across the street ordered?" Pang Xiaonan was very surprised by the way the people of Horama chatted, but it also showed that The folk customs of Horama are simple and open, which is a good sign.

"Why are you asking this?" A Zhen sneered at Pang Xiaonan's answer, this kid didn't come to ask her out, so why did he know her name was A Zhen.

"This..." Pang Xiaonan's mind was spinning rapidly, "I want to ask, what did they order, because it's my first time here, and I don't know what are the special dishes in your restaurant."

Pang Xiaonan finally came up with an excuse and wiped his forehead unnaturally.

"They ordered food as soon as they came in. I don't know what they ordered on the first floor." Ah Zhen's answer made Pang Xiaonan feel a little nervous. In other words, the drug dealer had already ordered food. It's about to trade.

There is no longer any time to lose.

"Well, then, you help me order a few random dishes, and choose the best ones in your store."

Pang Xiaonan pushed the menu towards Ah Zhen.

"How many people?"

Ah Zhen asked tirelessly.

"Uh, maybe two or three people."

"Then I recommend you to try our signature dish, Red Sun Fish Head Tofu Soup. We use wild river fish from the upper reaches of the nearby Horama River, which is guaranteed to taste delicious..."

"Okay, have one."

"Then I suggest you to order our Red Sun Pig's Trotter..."

Ah Zhen seems to have seized the opportunity to promote the characteristics of her store, like a talk show, she wants to express her views to the fullest.

Pang Xiaonan hurriedly stopped her, "Ah Zhen, I told you, I like everything you ordered, can you help me serve the food right away?"

Pang Xiaonan looked at Ah Zhen with longing eyes.

"He said he didn't want to pick me up, hmph..."

After two seconds of silence, A-Zhen threw out a word, turned around and Nana creaked away on the wooden stairs.

Pang Xiaonan was almost stunned, but he had a flash of inspiration, remembering that he had a task ahead of him, quickly took out his mobile phone, dialed a number, and gave a soft command into the microphone: "Grass carp has come out of the hole, ready to catch fish!"

Pang Xiaonan got up and walked towards the opposite private room.

Turning the doorknob, Pang Xiaonan walked in.

There were a total of nine people inside, and they were undoubtedly drug dealers at first glance. They turned their heads to look at Pang Xiaonan curiously at the same time.

Two people sat on both sides of the table, and there were several younger brothers standing behind them.

Pang Xiaonan put on a smiling face: "Hi everyone."

"What do you do?" A younger brother near the door asked warily.

Maybe it was because Pang Xiaonan was dressed very ordinary, like a waiter in a restaurant, so although the few people inside were vigilant, they didn't draw their guns immediately.

"I want to ask, do you sell drugs here?"

Pang Xiaonan's face suddenly changed color and became serious.

At this moment, several younger brothers standing by the table touched their waists at the same time.

But Pang Xiaonan quickly swayed and rushed out with lightning speed.

As a martial arts master, he naturally knew that a few guys were going to draw their guns.

Before they could pull out their guns, Pang Xiaonan had already rushed in front of them, slashing their necks with a knife in his palm, and several younger brothers fell down like mud.

This time, there were only two sitting bosses left in the private room.

Pang Xiaonan moved too fast, and they didn't have time to react.

After finishing off a few younger brothers, Pang Xiaonan put on a smiling face again, walked to the door with ease, and closed the door gently.

Pang Xiaonan turned around, the two bosses were still sitting in their seats, and there were two suitcases on the table in front of them.

According to the usual routine, one of the two suitcases contained drugs and the other contained cash.

As expected of seasoned drug lords, the two bosses can still pretend to be calm.

"Who are you?" A middle-aged man with a mustache in casual clothes asked.

Pang Xiaonan glanced at him, then walked to the table and sat down.

"I'm your enemy..." Pang Xiaonan saw that the bearded figure was moving, as if he was about to run, "Hey... wait a minute, don't act rashly, you know, your movements are not as fast as mine."

As long as the drug dealers are all gathered in one room, Pang Xiaonan is sure to catch them all, no matter whether they have guns or not.

Opposite the one-character mustache was a bloated man with gray hair and blue eyes. He seemed very calm: "Martial Dao Grandmaster, haha, I never thought that I would fall into the hands of a Martial Dao Grandmaster."

"Hey, you have a good eye." Pang Xiaonan looked at the blue-eyed man appreciatively, "You can still tell that I am a martial arts master. It's a pity that you go to drug trafficking, you should practice martial arts."

"My only hobby is to practice martial arts. Unfortunately, I have stopped at the middle level of martial arts, and I can no longer advance one step further." The blue-eyed man laughed at himself.

It seems that practicing martial arts cannot lose weight.

Pang Xiaonan sized up the blue-eyed man again, and made a preliminary judgment in his heart. This man should be the famous Saibia, and the one opposite him should be Hu Luoba, a drug lord entrenched in Yitan and Horama.

Sometimes, a person's name and temperament still match.

Just like this Saibia, who is not angry but appears approachable. This is the leadership temperament cultivated by years of pampering.

As for Hu Luoba, he must have worked his way up from the bottom, because he has a grassroots temperament, which cannot be concealed no matter what clothes he wears.

At this time, several plainclothes rushed in from the door, and the leader was Dawo Khan.

"Boss, why did you rush in alone? How dangerous!" Davao Khan complained to Pang Xiaonan while taking out handcuffs to handcuff the drug trafficker who collapsed on the ground.

"Your speed is too slow. When you come here, the day lily will be cold." Pang Xiaonan was a little disappointed with the reaction speed of the Horama police.

"You think we are you," Davao Khan roasted another drug dealer, "You are a martial arts master, have their identities been confirmed?"

Davao Khan's eyes kept scanning the only remaining drug dealers in the room who remained in a sitting position.

"Can you confirm what is in these two boxes first?"

Pang Xiaonan was curious as to whether he had grasped the current situation today.

Davao Khan put the drug dealer in his hand on the ground, stood up immediately and opened two suitcases.

Sure enough, as Pang Xiaonan expected, one of the suitcases contained cash and the other contained drugs.

"Haha, Boss, this time the stolen goods are taken together, they can't escape."

According to the amount of drugs in the suitcase, the few drug dealers in front of them can be shot hundreds of times.

It still depends on what type of drug it is. If it is the latest high-concentration drug developed by Saibia, then the sentencing will be far away.

At this time, Hu Luoba jumped up from the chair, and jumped towards the window regardless of his own safety.

"Stop!" Davao Khan shouted, already drawing his gun.

The window of the private room was not closed, and there was a lush green jungle outside.

"Ah!" Before Davao Khan could draw out his gun, Hu Luoba screamed and fell to the ground.

It was Pang Xiaonan, who shot a chopstick and hit the numb tendon on Hu Luoba's back, causing him to lose strength all over.

"Idiot, you still want to escape in front of the martial arts master." Saibia looked coldly at Hu Luoba on the ground, thinking that it is terrible to be uneducated.

This can't be blamed on Hu Luoba, he is not a martial artist after all, and he doesn't know how powerful a martial arts master is.

Pang Xiaonan looked at Saibia with great interest and said, "Unexpectedly, you are quite experienced. It seems that you must know many martial arts masters."

"Haha, I like making friends with people in the martial arts the most," Saibia laughed loudly. "To tell you the truth, when I saw you, I had a premonition that something bad was going to happen. Sure enough, you didn't disappoint me."

"How about we make a deal, if you let me go, I will give you endless glory and wealth."

Saibia looked at Pang Xiaonan with sincerity, in such a tense situation, he was not afraid at all.

This is the psychological quality of a big drug lord.

"Haha," this time it was Pang Xiaonan's turn to smile, "Brother, do you know who you are talking to?"

"That's right, are you crazy? Do you think we are air?" Davao Khan looked at Saibia very dissatisfied. The drug lord was too arrogant to bribe so many policemen.

"You are their boss," Saibia continued to look straight at Pang Xiaonan regardless of Davao Khan's questioning, his blue eyes exuded a strange charm, "I believe you can make the decision."

"I can be the master, but now I am the master and take you away."

Pang Xiaonan stopped talking nonsense with Saibia, and stood up from his seat. At this time, all the drug dealers were under control. The small Red Sun restaurant was already overcrowded. Those who were arresting and watching the excitement, the second floor The private room was almost bursting.

Pang Xiaonan felt that if he stayed here again, sooner or later the people watching the excitement would trample down the building.

Saibia shrugged, did not resist being handcuffed, but left a sentence, "Do you think you can lock me up like this?"

Pang Xiaonan turned his head and looked at Saibia, full of doubts. Saibia's words did not seem to be harsh words. It seemed that this guy still had a backhand, but he couldn't care so much now.

"Take them all away!" With a wave of Pang Xiaonan's hand, the plainclothes officers pushed several drug dealers, big and small, through the crowd and walked downstairs.

The wooden stairs in the poor red sun restaurant have been in disrepair for a long time. After being stepped on by so many people one by one, it is no longer screaming, but like a pile of rotten tires being run over by a car, it sounds inexplicably uncomfortable .

The crowd of onlookers followed the police team. Pang Xiaonan was about to leave at last, but was stopped by a person in front of him.

Ah Zhen with a face of freckles appeared: "You haven't eaten the food after ordering, you want to run away."

"Yes," Pang Xiaonan scratched his head in embarrassment, running orders is not a manly behavior, "Can you pack it?"

Carrying the signature dishes of Red Sun Restaurant in big and small bags, Pang Xiaonan bid farewell to Ah Zhen, "If it tastes good, I'll come back next time."

Back at the command center of the police station, Pang Xiaonan put the food on the middle table and asked Wu Zhen, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Where do you have time to eat?" Wu Zhen came over with a cup of tea, "Boss, you are really brave. You single-handedly took down 9 drug dealers with your bare hands."

"Stop flattering and eat!" Pang Xiaonan couldn't wait to taste the taste of Red Sun Restaurant, such a good business must be a good skill.

After unpacking the bag, the smell of food permeated the command room, when Davao Khan walked in.

"Boss, it's so sweet. Those drug dealers have a very hard mouth. It seems that they won't tell the truth without some means."

Davao Khan was not polite, just picked up a pig's trotter and gnawed on it.

"That's your business. I only need to arrest them. You can handle the rest by yourself."

Pang Xiaonan took a bowl of fresh fish soup and tasted it there.

"The harvest this time is huge." Wu Zhen gave Pang Xiaonan a thumbs up, "The arrest of two drug lords together is a remarkable achievement in history."

"Yeah, but that Saibia is more troublesome, and keeps saying that he needs to see a lawyer."

Davao Khan was very angry with this kind of uncooperative criminals, especially when the stolen goods were obtained at the same time.

"This kind of big drug lord is very powerful, whether in terms of lawyers or private armed forces, that's why they are so arrogant."

Wu Zhen has some understanding of the style of drug lords. These criminals who have been at large for a long time must have their own special methods.

"Could it be that Saibia can still organize people to rob the prison?" Pang Xiaonan raised his head and looked at Wu Zhen suspiciously, "If they dare to come, I will destroy them in one fell swoop!"

Wu Zhen is in charge of the security of Horama City, and all the armed forces are under his command. If Saibia dares to attack, he can mobilize all the force of Horama City to kill them all.

No matter how powerful the drug trafficking arms are, they are no match for the regular army.

The drug lord's affairs came to an end, and Pang Xiaonan felt that the most urgent task was to improve the conditions in the shantytowns.

Most of the current labor force in Horama City lives in shantytowns. If their conditions are not improved, it will be a big hidden danger to the future development of Horama City.

Pang Xiaonan came to the construction command center of Hehai Group. With Peng Yuyan's insistence, Qian Duoyi has moved the headquarters into the city hall now.

Standing in front of the city hall, Pang Xiaonan felt that this building was really grand, the big pillars looked very majestic, and the overall style was relatively retro, like an ancient palace.

"Do you want to be so extravagant?" Pang Xiaonan's first words when he saw Qian Duoyi were, "The place where civil servants work is like a palace, isn't it good?"

"Haha, Mr. Pang, this is Horama City. Of course, we need to be more grand, otherwise how can we attract everyone to immigrate?" Qian Duoyi finally had a separate office. He welcomed Pang Xiaonan's arrival and said Make tea yourself.

"This design plan was decided by Mr. Peng, and you didn't raise any objections at that time."

Indeed, Pang Xiaonan didn't take a look at all the construction plans of Hehai Group. Of course, he didn't know what Horama City would look like in the end.

"It doesn't matter. After the capital is built, it can't be demolished and rebuilt. But then again, Mr. Peng's taste is still acceptable." Pang Xiaonan sat on the sofa and crossed his legs.

"I'm here today mainly to discuss with you about the shanty town."

The day before, Pang Xiaonan visited the shanty town again.

What surprised him was that the people living in the shantytowns looked happy, and there was not much sadness hanging on their faces.

Pang Xiaonan walked into a small shop on the side of the road in the shanty town and bought a bottle of herbal tea. The goods here were not much different from those in other cities in China, but one-third of the goods were imported from neighboring countries. good stuff.

"Boss, how do you get all the imported food here?"

Pang Xiaonan opened the herbal tea, sat next to the simple table and chairs at the entrance of the small shop, and chatted with the owner of the shop.

"It's not easy, let's ship it in," the boss is a middle-aged man, and he brought a little boy under 3 years old. He watched the little boy playing alone on the street in front of the door. "If there is demand, there will be supply." , the traffic in Horama City is so developed now, nothing can come in."

What Pang Xiaonan didn't know was that in the past two years, the traffic in Horama City has grown by leaps and bounds, and several roads have radiated out, linking the surrounding countries and regions.

Now, Horama City has almost become a transportation hub for several regions. Except that there is no railway, the road network can be said to extend in all directions.

"I think you are new here?" The boss glanced at Pang Xiaonan, looked at his clothes, and thought that this young man must have come to Horama City to find a life.

"Yes, yes, I'm new here." Pang Xiaonan hurriedly agreed, he just wanted to see how the people at the bottom of Khorama are living, so he wanted to conceal his true identity.

But in fact, he is indeed a newcomer to the current Horama City.

"What? You just graduated, and you still can't get along in other places?" the boss said bluntly.

"Just graduated, I want to see what opportunities there are." Pang Xiaonan thought it would be better for him to pretend to be a fresh graduate.

"This is the right time for you to come. There are plenty of opportunities in Horama City."

The boss pointed to his small shop, "Look at my small supermarket. Don't look at it as inconspicuous. I have to rely on it to support my family. Horama City is full of vigor and consumer demand. If I opened it in another place , how can there be such a good business."

"Then if you make so much money, why do you want to live in this kind of place?" Pang Xiaonan pointed to the wooden house outside, "This place is dilapidated and shabby, don't you think about safety in order to save money?"

"Hey, where do you want to go?" The boss retorted Pang Xiaonan, "It's not that everyone doesn't want to live in a good house. There are few houses in Horama City. You can't rent houses if you have money, and the houses in Horama City are still expensive." They are all built by the developers themselves, and the only developer, Hehai Company, is actually a monopoly, and the housing prices are tightly controlled, and the prices are very cheap..."

The boss spread his hands, "But what's the use? The supply exceeds the demand, and people don't sell it! Rent and can't rent it, so everyone has no choice but to build and build randomly in the corners of this city."

"But fortunately, no one cares, so we can only live and work here in peace."

"Then who lives in those houses in the city center now?"

The city of Horama is really not small anymore. If there is a shortage of houses, isn’t there still so many buildings in the city center?Are they all full?
"They are all commercial and residential buildings, and they are all for large companies to work and accommodate employees. Those of us who come here spontaneously can only come to this shanty town to settle down."

"Won't such a disorderly construction cause disputes?"

"There must have been disputes, but those who came early set up a residents' council, referred to as the people's council, to coordinate these random immigration affairs, so although the shanty town looks chaotic, it is still orderly. "

"Minhui? There is such an organization?" Pang Xiaonan felt very novel.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. There used to be black societies in the shantytowns, but Horama City suppressed the black societies very hard, so the law and order in the shantytowns is getting better and better, and the power of the people's associations is getting stronger. As it grows bigger, it is more and more popular with immigrants. If you have any problems, you can go to the people's association, which is equivalent to an autonomous government."

While chatting with Pang Xiaonan, the boss watched his son play happily with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Boss, what job do you think I can find?"

Pang Xiaonan remembered his pretended identity.

"You, you can find any job. If you have a degree, you will definitely develop well in Horama City in the future. Unlike me, I haven't studied for a few years and can only start a small business. As long as you can work in Horama I am content with Macheng taking root..."

"Do you know what industry is more promising in Horama City now?"

"As far as I know, there is a shortage of people in any industry, because I meet a lot of people every day, people from all walks of life. I chatted with his mother, and they said that the salary is good."

The boss turned his head and glanced at Pang Xiaonan, "If you can't make up your mind, go to the Minhui. The Minhui is in the middle of this street, and there will be someone there to guide you to find a job."

After leaving the small shop, Pang Xiaonan felt in a good mood. Unexpectedly, this shantytown actually set up a public welfare organization spontaneously. He really underestimated these outsiders.

Pang Xiaonan decided to go to the Minhui to have a look.
