Hu Mazi had been talking for over two hours, during which Gu Shanhai hadn't said a word. He actually wanted to ask questions, but he couldn't help that Hu Mazi was simply too afraid of death, spilling everything he knew.
The downfall of Hu Mountain Cave was indeed related to Liang Xing, but not entirely. The person who truly twisted this den of iniquity was Liang Xing's father, whose fate need not be mentioned; the man was certainly dead. Afterward, Liang Xing was discovered, which led to a retaliatory strike.
As for the rest, Hu Mazi was in the dark because by then, everyone had already gone their separate ways. It was only later, when expenses were flowing like water and unsustainable, that they regrouped and formed a monopoly over the Qingxian Town meat market.
Before that, they had tried to reopen Hu Mountain Cave, but their previous bad reputation had caused not only a failure to profit but also significant losses. Some things simply can't be replicated just by saying so.
