Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chapter 209 The Troublesome Qingshan Bay

But Thirteenth Sister's words directly restrained Jiang Tiansheng and made Chen Haonan the leader of Causeway Bay. Jiang Tiansheng was somewhat unwilling.

But now that things have come to this, if we don't let Chen Haonan become the leader of Causeway Bay, I'm afraid that Chen Haonan will think too much. People's hearts are unpredictable, and Chen Haonan might even have second thoughts because of this.

Jiang Tiansheng thought about it and looked at Chen Haonan. He saw that Chen Haonan was staring at him with eyes full of desire.

Jiang Tiansheng was quite courageous and said directly, "Thirteenth sister, this is a good suggestion."

"Anan, you will be the boss of Causeway Bay from now on. I hope you won't let me down."

Before Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking, Chen Haonan said anxiously, "Mr. Jiang, just wait and see. I will definitely not let you down."

Afterwards, Chen Yao spoke again and proposed to complete the Thirteen Halls of Hongxing.

Not surprisingly, the Sham Shui Po branch and the Tsuen Wan branch naturally became the main halls, thus completing the Thirteen Main Halls of the Hung Hing clan.

The thirteen main halls are Causeway Bay Main Hall, Pok Lan Street Main Hall, Tsim Sha Tsui Main Hall, Kowloon City Main Hall, Tsuen Wan Main Hall, Sham Shui Po Main Hall, Aberdeen Main Hall, North Point Main Hall, Kwai Tsing Main Hall, Sai Wan Main Hall, Tuen Mun Main Hall, Kwun Tong Lam Tin Main Hall, and Chai Wan Main Hall.

The thirteen leaders are Chen Haonan, Thirteen Sisters, Prince, Thin Eyes, Dinosaur, Pretty Mom, Wuliang, Fatty Lai, Han Bin, Knife Man Ching, Lu Yongqiang, Da Fei, and Ma Wangjian.

After the gang meeting, Lu Yongqiang turned his attention away from the outside world and focused on digesting the territory he had just acquired. However, the number of Lu Yongqiang's subordinates increased dramatically again. In just over ten days, Lu Yongqiang had gained nearly a thousand more subordinates.

Dinosaur took his small gambling boat away, but left a mess for Lu Yongqiang in Qingshan Bay.

When Siyan was in charge of Qingshan Bay, he transformed several nearby streets into red-light districts. There were horse stalls everywhere in those places, and many people made money by providing pornographic services.

Later, Four Eyes died unexpectedly, and Dinosaur took over the place. Dinosaur went a step further. In addition to developing the pornography industry, he also started an underground black lottery business, forming an upstream and downstream industrial chain.

Not only do his subordinates make money from these two industries, but many residents, government departments, and even the police are also involved.

Now that the dinosaur has left, Lu Yongqiang is in a headache.

The situation in Hong Kong is chaotic. The Hong Kong government has always turned a blind eye to relatively less harmful gray industries such as pornography and illegal lottery, and has not investigated them too strictly. This is why there are dens of money-making such as Bo Lan Street and Causeway Bay.

However, as 97 draws closer, the living space of these gray industries will become smaller and smaller, and the police will investigate more and more strictly. Knowing that it is impossible, Lu Yongqiang will not dare to touch it.

So after taking over Qingshan Bay, Lu Yongqiang planned to shut down many of the gray industries here.

If Lu Yongqiang wanted to shut down sites like Makan and underground illegal lottery, all he had to do was say so. But what would happen after that? Lu Yongqiang would have to give someone an explanation, right?

Like those people who used to protect dinosaurs, Lu Yongqiang cut off their source of income. If he doesn't give an explanation, these people will probably not let it go.

Therefore, blindly cutting off all gray industries is not advisable unless Lu Yongqiang is willing to pay out of his own pocket to compensate others for their losses.

However, Lu Yongqiang was unwilling to continue running the business.

Like the horse kennel, all the girls with a bit of beauty in it were taken away by dinosaurs.

If he wants to continue running the business, Lu Yongqiang has to either cooperate with Shisanmei or Liangma and transfer people from their places.

Otherwise, you can only find a way yourself, either buying people from human traffickers or poaching people from other places.

If he wanted to continue running the business, Lu Yongqiang had to find a way to find a large number of women.

It is easier to operate underground black lottery. Lu Yongqiang only needs to put out a sum of money as start-up capital in the early stage, and the underground black lottery can continue to operate.

That day, Lu Yongqiang had just gotten up and was having breakfast with Dadong when Lu Yongheng came over.

Lu Yongqiang called out, "Ah Heng, have you eaten? If not, come over and have something to eat with us."

Lu Yongheng was not polite. He walked to the dining table and sat down, then said, "Aunt Wu, please serve me a bowl of porridge." As he spoke, he grabbed a bun with his hand.

After they had breakfast, Lu Yongqiang asked, "Ah Heng, are you here to talk to me about something?"

Lu Yongheng said, "District Councillor Sun Youwei called me and said that a few bosses in Qingshan Bay wanted to treat me to a meal. I think they were discussing the issues in the streets near Qingshan Bay.

Brother, this matter has been delayed for half a month. What are your plans for those streets over there? You should make a decision soon. I can’t handle it anymore.”

As soon as Lu Yongheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang frowned immediately. He thought for a moment and said, "Ah Heng, you have been in contact with those bosses. What do you think about this matter?"

Lu Yongheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, since you don't want to do the porn business, then we can just ignore it. They are determined to do the porn business, so let them do it on their own. If anything goes wrong later, don't come to us."

After Lu Yongheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang shook his head and said, "Ah Heng, this won't work. These people are old foxes. They won't come forward themselves when it comes to breaking the law and discipline. They will only support others to come forward.

They might even support our subordinates and use them for their own purposes. If anything goes wrong in the future, I will be held responsible.”

At this point, Lu Yongqiang thought for a moment and said, "Ah Heng, didn't they say they wanted to invite you to dinner? I'll go with you today to meet these old foxes."

At noon, eleven people were sitting in a private room of a restaurant near Qingshan Bay.

There are only three people on Lu Yongqiang's side, him, Lu Yongheng and Dadong. The other eight people are all big and small bosses in several streets near Qingshan Bay.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they started talking about business.

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties said, "Brother Qiang, Brother Heng, in the past month, the business in our store has only been one-tenth of what it was before. If this continues, we will all be broke.

We paid the protection fee, and you guys are in charge of the place. Now that the business is like this, I think you two big brothers are going to give us an explanation, right?"

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang looked at Lu Yongheng and asked, "Ah Heng, which shops in my territory are owned by this boss Zhang? How much does he pay in environmental management fees every month?"

Lu Yongheng thought for a moment and said, "There should be four stores in total. There are two stores near the Sansheng Village Seafood Market, and two stores on the nearby Sansheng Street. For four stores, the monthly environmental management fee should be around 7,000 to 8,000 yuan."

As Lu Yongheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang sneered and said, "Boss Zhang, you heard it. You only pay me 7,000 or 8,000 yuan in environmental management fees every month. What do you want to say?"

Then, Lu Yongqiang turned to Lu Yongheng and said, "Ah Heng, give this Boss Zhang 10,000 yuan, and then tell Brother Bao that the sanitation in front of Boss Zhang's shop will have nothing to do with us from now on."

As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, the middle-aged man who had just spoken was filled with panic. He said anxiously, "Brother Qiang, that's not what I meant. Boss Qiang, that's really not what I meant."

After calling out twice, the man saw that Lu Yongqiang ignored him, so he immediately said to Lu Yongheng: "Brother Heng, you know me well. I, Lao Zhang, am just a brainless and reckless man. What I said just now is really not what Brother Qiang understood.

Brother Heng, please, please explain this to Brother Qiang."

Lu Yongheng opened the briefcase beside him, took out a stack of banknotes, counted out ten thousand-yuan bills and placed them in front of the boss Zhang, and said softly: "Boss Zhang, didn't you ask Brother Qiang to give you an explanation? This money is Brother Qiang's explanation to you, quickly put it away!"

Boss Zhang stared intently at the 10,000 yuan neatly stacked before him, as if it weren't money but a pile of hot potatoes. Then, he slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over Lu Yongqiang, who stood expressionless beside him. Beads of sweat began to roll uncontrollably down his forehead, one by one hitting the ground.

His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back. After hesitating for a long time, he finally didn't have the courage to reach out and touch the money on the table. Instead, his legs gave way and he fell straight to his knees on the hard floor with a plop.

Then, a shocking scene occurred—the lord Zhang, who had been so majestic just a moment ago, actually began to slap his own cheeks! He used all his strength in each slap, and the crisp sound of the slaps echoed throughout the room, making people feel a palpitation.

He kept begging for mercy: "Brother Qiang, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! Please have mercy on me and leave me a chance to live..."

However, Lu Yongqiang just stood there quietly, unresponsive like a sculpture, staring coldly at Boss Zhang who was punishing himself.

Time passed by minute by minute. When Boss Zhang had already slapped him more than a dozen times, Lu Yongqiang finally revealed a faint smile and said softly, "Okay, you can stop! Stand up! After all, you are a well-known figure. How can you kneel down to others so easily? If someone outside saw this, they would probably mistakenly think that I, Lu, am bullying the weak and unreasonable!"

Boss Zhang's family has some assets. Not only does he own four shops, he also has two properties in Tuen Mun. Together, they have assets worth nearly 10 million.

This man not only comes from a wealthy family, but also has some connections. His brother-in-law works in a government department and is a small leader in a powerful department.

Besides, this guy has a good relationship with Dinosaur's trusted aboriginals, and the two are like brothers. In Tuen Mun, this guy is also a figure who has connections in both the black and white worlds.

To some, this man was a big shot, and most people didn't dare to mess with him. But to Lu Yongqiang now, he was nothing.

If Lu Yongqiang really wanted to punish him, within three days, his brother-in-law would lose his job, and the barbarians who were on close terms with him would also cut off contact with him.

Now that he has no backers in both the black and white worlds, Lu Yongqiang can do whatever he wants to him, even if he wants to destroy his family.

This man was also crazy just now. He thought Lu Yongqiang was easy to talk to, so he shamelessly asked Lu Yongqiang to give him an explanation.
