Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Qian Wendi thanked Big Eyes for their help: "Brothers, thank you so much for your help. Please give me your numbers later, and I'll give you a little something as a token of my respect."

Qian Wendi is a smart man. Although he is taken care of by Da Yanguang in prison because of his connection with Hung Hing, he is still a smart man.

However, if you want someone to do something for you, you still have to spend money.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these prisoners are locked up here and seem to have no need for money; in fact, quite the opposite is true.

To live comfortably in prison, you have to spend money.

The prison provides regular meals and some toiletries, but items like cigarettes, candy, and alcohol still need to be purchased.

So Big Eyes was quite satisfied with Qian Wendi: "Kid, you're pretty clever. Don't worry, if you get into any trouble in prison, just come find us. Big Brother will stand up for you."

"Thanks, Brother Guang," Qian Wendi said with a smile, then casually asked, "I came in to see someone. Do you know who Robinson Crusoe is?"

"Robinson Crusoe?" Big Eyes immediately pointed to the gray-haired old man sunbathing next to him.

Qian Wendi was about to go up and chat with him, but before he could say two words, Robinson Crusoe left warily.

Clearly, they were not used to Wendi Qian's overly familiar manner.

Just as Qian Wendi was considering a solution, a dark-skinned, fierce-looking man walked over with his men.

"You're Qian Wendi? I'm Dinosaur." Dinosaur put his arm around Qian Wendi's shoulder and looked him up and down.

Qian Wendi shoved the dinosaur aside and said, "Get out of here. People will get suspicious."

The dinosaur sneered and said, "Actually, it's useless for Liu Sheng to send you here. It was useless for me to beat that bastard. Can you do it?"

Qian Wendi was also very annoyed to see that this guy was deliberately picking a fight.

"Since you refuse to leave, then I have no choice but to hit you." With that, Qian Wendi punched the dinosaur in the face.

This action immediately provoked the dinosaur's henchmen, who prepared to take direct action against Qian Wendi.

Unfortunately, at this moment, the Four Villains had already run over and stood behind Qian Wendi, saying, "You bastards, what do you want?"

Faced with the four notorious villains, even Dinosaur didn't dare to fight them. He could only stop his underlings and point at Qian Wendi, saying, "Brother, you win."

Qian Wendi said with a sneer, "It's not that I'm ruthless, it's that you're being a jerk."

"Be careful," the dinosaur said menacingly to Qian Wendi, then led his men away.

In the following days, Wendi Qian tried to get close to Robinson Crusoe.

However, he did not act rashly, but waited for an opportunity.

Robinson Crusoe is so old, and his daughter was killed by Liu Yaozu. To say he didn't want revenge would be nonsense.

However, this old man was far too vigilant, which was also related to his past experiences.

If you're too hasty, you're likely to offend Robinson Crusoe.

Just when Qian Wendi was at his wit's end, that idiot Dinosaur gave him a perfect opportunity.

He found an opportunity to break Robinson's leg, which prompted Wendy Qian to immediately help send Robinson to the prison hospital.

Robinson watched Qian Wendi bustling about and said, "Liu Yaozu sent you, didn't he? He saw that the dinosaurs couldn't do anything to me, so he sent you?"

Qian Wendi hadn't expected that Robinson Crusoe had already figured it out, so he bluntly said, "That's right, Liu Yaozu kidnapped my senior brother and wants me to come and get you."

Robinson laughed and said, "Then you're in trouble. I've already figured out your motives. You think you can fool me so easily?"

Qian Wendi simply sat down and said, "It's indeed useless, but do you want revenge?"

"How can I talk about revenge in my current state?" Robinson said self-deprecatingly. "That bastard Liu Yaozu is rich and powerful; he could crush me with a single finger."

"What if there is such an opportunity?" Qian Wendi had no intention of befriending Robinson Crusoe. As long as he could strike up a conversation, he would have a way to deal with that guy Liu Yaozu.

"Oh? What opportunity?" Robinson asked, somewhat surprised.

Qian Wendi said calmly, "You might not believe anything I say now, so I'll talk to you again when I have enough leverage. You're already over sixty; if you don't take revenge now, you might never have the chance in your life, right?"

After saying that, Wendy Qian patted Robinson on the shoulder, then secretly slipped him a cigarette before turning and leaving the prison hospital.

As Robinson watched Qian Wendi's retreating figure, he was clearly deep in thought.

“Ah Jun, I’ve investigated Deng Guobin, whom you asked me to look into. He is indeed one of the CIB’s undercover agents. However, according to his superior, Deng Guobin seems to be showing signs of defecting. The CIB is considering whether to recall him.”

A few days later, Li Shutang investigated the matter and relayed the information to Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "I understand, thank you for your help."

Considering the recent events in Yifeng, Li Shutang asked, "So you're planning to start with Yifeng? I bet the anti-narcotics team was able to raid Mo Yilie's warehouse because you had someone do it, right?"

“You really know me.” Chen Jiajun smiled and said, “I’ve been keeping an eye on Mo Yilie for a long time. He was thinking of cooperating with Khun Sa before, but after I killed Khun Sa, he turned around and found another source of goods.”

"I have to say, there are quite a few people in Southeast Asia who are into these things, and there are also quite a few forces eyeing Hong Kong. I don't want Hong Kong to become a transit point for laundry detergent and 'number four' (a derogatory term for prostitutes).

After a moment of silence, Li Shutang said, "You'd better be careful. If people find out about this, they might gang up on you."

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "Then let them come."

"You're crazy." After saying that, Li Shutang hung up the phone immediately.

After speaking with Li Shutang on the phone, Chen Jiajun told Su Xingbai the news.

At this point, Su Xingbai's conflict with La Jiang was already out in the open.

At Yi Feng's headquarters, all the hall masters came to the organization for a meeting.

Mo Yilie died while serving as the head of Yifeng, so he still retained some dignity.

However, after Mo Yilie's body was taken out of the police station, his position as the gang leader was a thing of the past.

Since Yifeng still exists, it's natural to choose a trusted leader to take charge.

“I’ve checked. In the past few days, all the branches and offices in the New Territories have been under 24-hour surveillance by paparazzi, and there are still people watching outside.” After saying this, Bao Deng sat down to the side.

The gang leader's uncle snorted and said, "We expected this a long time ago. With such a big event as Yi Feng's death, the gang leader, why wouldn't they send out all their paparazzi to gather information?"

"Don't worry about them. Ah Lie died under mysterious circumstances, and his body wasn't even found until several days later. For the dignified leader of Yi Feng to die so quietly is truly a loss of dignity."

“Not only has Ah Lie lost his dignity, but Yi Feng has also lost face.”

The uncles and other elders kept talking, making everyone else present look uncomfortable.

After all, everyone here is making a living under the Yifeng brand, and it wouldn't do anyone good if Yifeng lost face.

Su Xingbo's expression remained unchanged as he directly questioned, "Has anyone been dissatisfied with Brother Lie lately?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned strange. Anyone could tell that Mo Yilie's acquisition of so much ketamine and his achievements were solely for the purpose of securing his re-election.

Although no one says it, everyone knows it perfectly well.

The person most dissatisfied with Mo Yilie was Spicy Ginger, a popular candidate for the next leader.

Spicy Ginger, as a veteran member of the organization, has been the head of the hall for several years now.

Over the years, I have indeed worked diligently for the organization, and all I have asked for is a position as its leader.

Spicy Ginger's expression changed immediately when Su Xingbai questioned him on the spot.

However, it is precisely at times like these that Spicy Ginger dares not lose his temper, otherwise it would be tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked.

Spicy Ginger snorted and said, "The most likely reason for Brother Lie's death, besides enemies, is for personal gain."

At this moment, an uncle next to Spicy Ginger snorted and said, "Now that Brother Lie is gone, the one who benefits the most is the next new leader."

After a moment of silence, Fu Ye said, "Right now, the only one in the gang with enough seniority and strength is Spicy Ginger. And we older generation members do support Spicy Ginger's rise to power. In other words, some people might be dissatisfied with Spicy Ginger being elected as the leader and secretly kill Ah Lie so that a new election can be held to see who can become the leader."

The old man is shrewd and experienced; what he said makes a lot of sense.

However, he only guessed the outcome, not the motive.

Su Xingbo sneered and said, "Mr. Fu, are you implying that you doubt me?"

Mr. Fu said calmly, "It's not directed at you. This is how we at Yi Feng always choose our leader. We old folks are used to it."

"This matter can't be investigated in just two or three days. Put other things aside for now; the most important thing right now is to give Ah Lie a grand funeral."

Tank, Mo Yilie's staunch henchman, nodded and said, "Brother Lie is a well-known figure in the underworld, and his reputation is resounding. This funeral must not be taken lightly."

Seeing that the situation was turning in his favor, Spicy Ginger chimed in, "We should also take this opportunity to show our strength to other gangs. Even without a leader, Yi Fung is still just as powerful."

After leaving the house, the various leaders of Yifeng each had their own thoughts.

Spicy Ginger was talking to his uncles when Su Xingbo left with Bao Deng.

Meanwhile, the other two leaders, Tank and A-Zhan, were bickering with each other.

"Tanker, tell me honestly, did you take down Ah Lie?" Ah Zhan teased, "You're such a killer."

Tank sneered and said, "I could also say it was you who did it, Brother Zhan. You look like a smiling tiger, hiding a knife behind your smile."

Azan waved his hand and said, "Stop it. In terms of strength, I'm not qualified to threaten you. To be honest, no matter who's in charge of the tank, we won't go to extremes. If either of them takes over, neither you nor I will have a place to stand."

It's obvious that A-Zan is trying to win over Tank; both of them are well aware of it.

In terms of strength, Spicy Ginger's influence is the strongest in the entire Yi Fung.

In terms of methods, all of them combined are no match for Su Xingbai's brains.

Therefore, the safest approach now is to form alliances, as this offers a glimmer of hope.

The other hall masters shared the same idea and formed alliances with people they had good relationships with.

After finishing his conversation with his uncles, Spicy Ginger didn't take the others seriously. Instead, he looked at Su Xingbai's back with a sinister gaze and said to his underlings, "Find someone to help me spread the word that Mike is very dissatisfied with the uncles' support for me becoming the leader. Even if he can't take the blame, I'll make him suffer for a while."

Currently, hot ginger holds a significant advantage.

All he needs to do now is deal with Su Xingbai. This kid seems to know some secrets, so Spicy Ginger is very wary of him.

As for the others, they were not taken seriously by Spicy Ginger at all.

Meanwhile, Su Xingbo received news from Chen Jiajun that Spicy Ginger was indeed an undercover agent for the CIB.

So Su Xingbo found Luo Wen of the Ether Society.

"Oh, what brings you here today?"

Rowan was embracing a blonde, blue-eyed foreign woman, sipping his red wine.

Su Xingbai's arrival seemed somewhat unexpected.

Su Xingbai said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. Mo Yilie's funeral is about to begin, and the election for the new leader will be held immediately after the funeral."

"Although I know that Spicy Ginger is a CIB mole, I don't have any good way to deal with him without evidence."

Rowan immediately laughed: "Actually, you don't have to deal with Spicy Ginger from this angle. We told you Spicy Ginger's identity just to remind you to be careful not to get into trouble with the cops."

"As for earning the position of boss, we have another way to help you."

Su Xingbo paused for a moment, then said, "What method? Tell me about it?"

Rowan patted the foreign woman next to him and said, "Take your sisters downstairs. I have something to discuss."

The foreign woman obediently got up and left, leaving only Su Xingbo and Luo Wen in the villa.

Rowan said calmly, "When running for the position of leader, besides looking at qualifications and abilities, the most important thing is simply who can bring more benefits to the organization. Fortunately, we can help you fill in that gap."

Su Xingbai's heart skipped a beat, and then he realized: "You have a source for laundry detergent?"

“Smart,” Rowan said with a smile. “I have about a dozen tons of laundry detergent imported from Europe. It just so happens that one of our Ether Society members is supporting anti-drug operations in Colombia. Plus, your Hong Kong ‘King’ Chen Jiajun took down Khun Sa in the Golden Triangle, which has caused the international price of laundry detergent to skyrocket.”

There are roughly four major production areas for laundry detergent in the world. The Golden Triangle is the largest, followed by the Golden Crescent mentioned by Rowan, and the remaining two are the Silver Triangle and Latin America, with Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia and Peru at its center.

As for the Black Triangle, it won't amount to much for the time being due to excessive transportation losses.

Now that the Golden Triangle and Silver Triangle have run into problems, goods from the Golden Crescent have naturally become hot sellers.

Hearing the other party's plan, even Su Xingbai couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed.

No wonder Chen Jiajun, with his considerable influence, had to be so careful when dealing with the Ether Society; they certainly have the power to back it up.

Thinking of this, Su Xingbai revealed an excited expression and said, "With this batch of goods, those old fogies in the gang will definitely not refuse. You know, after Mo Yilie died, the ketamine market suffered a huge blow, and these old guys haven't had any meat for a long time."

"As long as I control enough supplies, how can anyone else compete with me? Even if the ginger is their father, it won't matter."

Luo Wen chuckled, picked up a glass of champagne, and handed it to Su Xingbo, saying, "When you take over the Yi Fung territory, I'll give you an exclusive deal. From then on, you'll be Hong Kong's 'Drug King'."

"Our Ether Society will formally invite you to join and control the underground forces throughout Asia. It will be hard not to make money then."

"It's a pleasure to work with you." Su Xingbo picked up his champagne and clinked glasses with Luo Wen, but his smile was rather strange.

Chen Jiajun had been looking for an opportunity to deal with the Ether Society, and Su Xingbo just happened to think that this was an opportunity.

After leaving Luo Wen's place, he went straight to Chen Jiajun's office. (End of Chapter)
