Chapter 165 The final decision
Chapter 165 The final decision
As Xiyan finished speaking, the room immediately erupted in discussion. Some agreed with Xiyan's proposal, while others opposed it.
Someone like Chui Shui-ji objected, "Xiaoyan, your proposal does make some sense, but even the police can't guarantee a 100% success rate in solving a case. How can you guarantee we can find Da B's killer? If the killer isn't found, will Causeway Bay still need to elect a leader? Will it always be run by Qiangzi, Dafei, and the others?"
After Chui Shuiji finished speaking, Xiyan said, "Then divide the Causeway Bay gang's business equally among Qiangzi and his men. Then, within a month, whoever helps Big B get revenge will be the leader. If the murderer is not found within a month, it will be determined by the management ability of each man. Whoever has the better management ability will be given the position."
After Xiyan finished speaking, Chui Shuiji glanced at Liang Kun and was about to speak, but Liang Kun shook his head at Chui Shuiji and said, "I think Xiyan's suggestion is good. What do you think?"
Since Liang Kun spoke up and Xiyan's proposal was in the best interests of everyone, naturally no one objected.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Liang Kun said, "Ajie, how many places does our club have in Causeway Bay? How are the current operations?"
Ah Jie, whose real name is Zhou Shijie, is the white paper fan of the Yau Ma Tei gang and the dog-headed military advisor beside Liang Kun. He is now equivalent to the role played by Chen Yao in the past.
After Liang Kun finished speaking, Zhou Shijie said, "The society owns ten places in total, six nightclubs and four casinos. Big B has never been good at business management, and the business conditions of all the places are not very good. Although we are not losing money, we are not making much money either.
We'll draw lots for the ten brothels. Whether you get a good or bad brothel depends entirely on your luck. Afterwards, I'll give the account books to the bosses. Since this is a competition of management ability, let's see who can run the brothel successfully."
As Zhou Shijie finished speaking, the meeting was essentially drawing to a close. It seemed as though all three issues Liang Kun had raised had been addressed and resolved, but there had been no substantive progress.
After the meeting, Lu Yongqiang stayed and waited for the lottery to assign him a place. Lu Yongqiang's luck was neither good nor bad, as he was assigned a nightclub and a small casino.
After coming out of Zhongyi Hall, Dafei and Daozaiqing stopped Lu Yongqiang and asked him to find a place to sit down.
There is no need to talk about Dafei. Lu Yongqiang's relationship with him is neither good nor bad, and they have always been in contact. As for Daozaiqing, the two have met several times and are quite familiar with each other.
So Lu Yongqiang didn't refuse. The three of them found a restaurant and asked for a private room.
After the waiter brought all the dishes, Da Fei and Dao Zai Qing looked at each other, then Da Fei picked up his glass and said, "Qiang Zi, we haven't had a drink in a while. Come on, let's have a drink first."
As he spoke, Dafei picked up his wine glass, clinked it with Lu Yongqiang's, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
Lu Yongqiang picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then put it down.
Da Fei glanced at Lu Yongqiang's wine glass and said unhappily, "Qiangzi, are you saving this for fish? Hurry up and drink it in one gulp."
Lu Yongqiang picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. After chewing it slowly and swallowing it, he said, "If you want to drink, let's find a place tonight and drink slowly with brothers. It's noon now, and I have things to do in the afternoon. This drink is just a token of my appreciation. If you have something to say, just say it directly."
Hearing what Lu Yongqiang said, Dafei put down the bottle in his hand and said, "Brother, you are a straightforward person, so I will speak frankly. Ah Qiang, are you really going to fight for the position in Causeway Bay, or are you just pretending?"
Hearing Da Fei's question, Lu Yongqiang put down his chopsticks and asked, "Brother Fei, do you have any reason to ask me this?"
Da Fei said, "Big B's death this time was a bit strange. I asked Brother Bao, and he said that on the night of Big B's accident, he went out very happily and didn't let his brothers follow him. Brother Bao asked casually, and Big B said that it was an old friend who came to see him, and he didn't want Brother Bao to ask about anything else.
If Brother Bao didn't lie to me, then the person who made an appointment to meet Brother B must be someone Brother B knows, or someone Brother B trusts very much.
There aren't many people Big B trusts that much, only a few. But none of them have simple identities that we dare to investigate. So finding the murderer is basically impossible.
Aqiang, in terms of contribution, you have made the greatest contribution among the five of us, and in terms of earning ability, none of us can compare with you.
If you are really determined to fight for this opportunity, then I won't bother you anymore. It will not only waste your time, but it will also affect the relationship between us brothers."
Brother Bao, Big Boss B’s personal bodyguard, is named Ma Xiaobao. He has followed Big Boss B for more than ten years. This man has mastered hard qigong to the highest level. He is the best fighter under Big Boss B and is much more powerful than Big Head and Chen Haonan.
It's just that this guy doesn't care much about the society's affairs. He is just a member of the gang and has always been a bodyguard for Boss B. To be honest, this guy is Boss B's absolute confidant.
Although his status in the society is low, he has a great reputation and his words are effective in Causeway Bay. Now almost all of Boss B's subordinates listen to his orders.
The night before yesterday, Lu Yongqiang gathered people and it was through this person that he was able to gather the manpower successfully.
If he didn't dislike being in charge, he would actually be a strong contender for the leader position this time.
As Da Fei finished speaking, Daozi Qing also spoke up, "Ah Qiang, I'm of the same opinion as Da Fei. I don't have much of an advantage to begin with, and if Brother Bin hadn't insisted on me coming out to fight, I definitely wouldn't have stood up to fight. If you, A Qiang, are determined to fight, just give me a straight answer so that I can give Brother Bin an explanation. Then I'll just withdraw and save time."
Lu Yongqiang narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering about Dafei and Daoziqing's true intentions.
During the two days when Big Boss B got into trouble, Da Fei was very busy. He went to see Chui Shuiji and visited Ma Wangjian.
I heard that they sent two people directly to Chui Shuiji's home, one was an African black pearl and the other was a European ocean horse. When they came out, Chui Shuiji was smiling and personally sent Dafei out. This gift really touched Chui Shuiji's heart.
The gift from Ma Wangjian was not simple either. Dafei raised a racehorse. Although it was not a rare commodity worth tens of millions, it was still worth millions and was considered a rare and fine horse.
Da Fei had invested so much money, and to say that he would willingly withdraw from the competition just because of Lu Yongqiang's words was nonsense...
Dao Zai Qing, on the other hand, seemed to be speaking the truth. His personality was similar to Da Dong's: a martial arts fanatic. Beyond training, he had no interest in power or money. Although he was a Red Stick in the Kwai Tsing Tong, he was largely indifferent. Every day, he either stayed in the gym or served as Han Bin's bodyguard. He said he didn't want to fight, and perhaps he really didn't.
After Lu Yongqiang thought for a while, he said, "Brother Fei, Brother Qing, since you asked, and we are all knowledgeable people, I will tell you what I want to say.
I don't really care about being the boss or not, I just want to run a good business, but my relationship with Dinosaur Brother is hard to describe. The reason I'm competing for the Causeway Bay location this time is also to expand beyond Tuen Mun.
So I'm definitely going to fight for the position, and there's no way I'm going to give up this opportunity. But honestly, if my two brothers want to voluntarily withdraw, that's completely unnecessary.
Like Fei just said, Big B's death was suspicious. I wonder if there's some conspiracy involved. And I heard some gossip: Some people say Big B was responsible for the arson attack on Kun's warehouse a while ago. Also, a lot of people have died recently on both sides of Kun and Big B's side. I heard they killed each other.
Anyway, I don't plan to get involved in finding the murderer. As for the two places, I will just run them normally for the time being and see how the situation develops before doing anything else.
Also, I heard from Brother Bao that he has notified Big B's wife to return to Hong Kong City to handle Big B's funeral, and he has also notified the handsome Nan brothers.
After this handsome boy Nan went to Taiwan, he has been doing very well there. I heard that he has become the leader of the Sanlian Gang there, which is equivalent to the leader here. The Sanlian Gang is the largest gang in Taiwan. If Handsome Nan brings his people back to Hong Kong City, it will be a big deal.
After Chen Haonan and his brothers failed in Australia Island, they got into big trouble. According to the rules of the Hongxing gang, their fate would definitely not be good.
However, with Thirteenth Sister secretly tipping off, Chen Haonan and his brothers actually ran away. According to the rules of the society, it is not an exaggeration to say that Chen Haonan and his brothers have betrayed the gang based on their behavior. The punishment for traitors is to send someone to kill them.
No one knew what Jiang Tiansheng was thinking. After deciding to retreat in order to advance, when he was about to abdicate, he announced the punishment decision for Chen Haonan and others. He just expelled them from Hongxing. It was a simple dismissal without any other punishment.
At that time, Liang Kun was in a state of ecstasy, and he didn't want to cause any trouble because of Chen Haonan and others, so he actually supported Jiang Tiansheng's decision.
Naturally, no one else will have any different opinions on the decisions made by the new and old leaders.
After Chen Haonan and his companions left Hong Kong, they went to Taiwan to find Shan Ji's cousin, just like in the plot.
Afterwards, under the introduction of cousin Shan Ji, several people began to work for Lei Gong of the Sanlian Gang.
Half a year ago, Shan Ji officially joined the San Lian Gang and became a disciple of Lei Gong, becoming the leader of the San Lian Gang's Viper Hall. However, Chen Haonan and several others did not join the San Lian Gang, but stayed in the Viper Hall as guests.
This information was not something Lu Yongqiang specifically asked someone to find out, but something he heard from Ma Xiaobao when they were drinking.
According to Ma Xiaobao, after Chen Haonan and his brothers went to Taiwan, Shan Ji was doing much better than the boss Chen Haonan.
First of all, Pheasant's cousin is Lei Gong's driver. He has followed Lei Gong for quite some time and is considered Lei Gong's confidant. Because of this relationship with his cousin, Lei Gong is more interested in Pheasant.
And just like in the plot, Shan Ji hooked up with Lei Gong's mistress Ding Yao. Lei Gong was a very open-minded person. Instead of being angry, he was willing to help the two of them get together.
Lei Gong suddenly became a comrade-in-arms, fellow disciple, and brother-in-law to Shan Ji, and naturally became closer to Shan Ji.
