Hong Kong General: Undercover and Liansheng, from 49 to leader

Chapter 145 [144] The number helps the prince, that’s it?
The Peninsula Hotel, French restaurant.

"..."

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Zhang Baishi's face instantly turned red and warm. He held it in for a long time but couldn't utter a single word.

Zhang Zhiyong will indeed soon become the leader of the Number Gang, and it is no problem for others to praise him, Zhang Baishi, and call him the prince of the Number Gang.

But facing Lu Yaowen, the genuine leader of He Liansheng, even if Zhang Baishi is really the prince of the number gang, he is still inferior to Lu Yaowen.

The Liansheng Dragon Head is similar to the ancient emperor. If a person without strength sits on it, such as Chuiji, he will only become a puppet of others, just like the puppet emperors in history.

But if a powerful person sits on the throne, it will be completely different. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang was already a powerful figure before he became emperor, and after he became emperor, he was even more domineering and had the final say.

This is the case with Lu Yaowen. He has both power and status. Even if Zhang Zhiyong comes and sees Lu Yaowen in a bad mood, he has to call him Mr. Lu.

Zhang Baishi opens his mouth and speaks Lu Yaowen, and closes his mouth and speaks Lu Yaowen, that means there are no rules!
"Zhang Baishi, your father and I are of the same generation. Shouldn't you call me Uncle Wen?"

Seeing that Zhang Baishi didn't speak for a long time, Lu Yaowen smiled slightly and asked lightly.

"..."

Zhang Baishi's already red face became even redder, just like a monkey's butt, making Zhang Baishi look like a living clown.

"go!"

Zhang Baishi grabbed Ma Wenfeng's hand, turned around and walked towards the door of the French restaurant. Although he was a little bit of a dandy, he was not stupid. He knew that in this situation, as long as he opened his mouth, he would have to bow his head and submit to Lu Yaowen.

If he can't afford to offend him, can he still not afford to hide?

"Damn it, Zhang Baishi, what are you afraid of? Aren't you the prince of the Number Gang? Isn't your Number Gang the number one gang in Hong Kong Island?"

Ma Wenfeng was originally thinking about watching her boyfriend step on Guo Kailin and her handsome boyfriend, but this is the result?

"..."

Zhang Baishi still didn't say anything, but just quickened his pace and almost dragged Ma Wenfeng out of the French restaurant.

The Number Gang is indeed the number one gang in Hong Kong Island now, but that is the sum of three gangs. Just their Yi gang can only be compared with Hung Hing and Tung Sing at most, let alone Luen Sheng.

This is also the reason why his father is willing to take a bullet and get a number in advance to help the host. This is to increase the weight of their Yi group and help Ma Wenfeng take over the Guo Group, and also sell it at a good price to the foreigners.

"Zhang Baishi, are you fucking crazy?"

Ma Wenfeng, who was extremely angry, shook off Zhang Baishi's hand and shouted.

"Wenfeng, listen to me."

Zhang Baishi put his arms around Ma Wenfeng's shoulders and said softly, "The most important thing for us now is to win the Baishi Island Casino project and help you take back the Guo Group. Everything else can be put aside, right?"

Ma Wenfeng, who was angry, did not say anything, but just nodded.

"Wenfeng, don't you think it's a little strange that your sister Guo Kailin and Lu Yaowen just showed up at the French restaurant?"

At this time, Zhang Baishi said quietly.

"Bai Shi, what do you mean?"

Ma Wenfeng's eyes moved slightly.

Hearing Ma Wenfeng's words, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Baishi's mouth. After dating Ma Wenfeng for several months, Zhang Baishi had long discovered that this eldest daughter of the Guo Group was a bit stupid, or in layman's terms, she was brainless.

Thinking of this, Zhang Baishi subconsciously glanced at Ma Wenfeng's chest. It wasn't that big! Where did all the nutrients go?

Although he was laughing at Ma Wenfeng in his heart, Zhang Baishi said, "Although He Liansheng is weaker than our Number Gang, it is also one of the five major societies in Hong Kong Island and its strength should not be underestimated. This time, Lu Yaowen and Guo Kailin must have known that we were coming here for dinner and ambushed us here on purpose. Lu Yaowen just deliberately angered me and wanted to take advantage of my unpreparedness to step on my face and win a red card for Guo Kailin."

"Luckily I reacted quickly and pulled you away immediately, otherwise Lu Yaowen and Guo Kailin's evil plan would have succeeded!"

After hearing what Zhang Baishi said, Ma Wenfeng's eyes suddenly lit up and her anger instantly subsided: "Bai Shi, luckily you are smart!"

"That's right, Wenfeng, listen to me more in the future, and you will never suffer any loss."

Apparently, Zhang Baishi had also taken PUA courses, and he sounded like an experienced PUA the moment he opened his mouth.

"Ah."

Ma Wenfeng nodded and snuggled into Zhang Baishi's arms again.

On the other side, inside the French restaurant.

Unlike Ma Wenfeng who was fooled, Guo Kailin really took a new look at Lu Yaowen.

Before today, she had been pushed to the brink of desperation by Ma Wenfeng and Zhang Baishi. Even some shareholders who had a good relationship with her father Guo Changfu were inclined to let Ma Wenfeng be in charge of the casino business on Baishi Island.

The Number Gang was indeed too famous in the underworld of Hong Kong Island. Ma Wenfeng and those old Ma family members praised Zhang Baishi, the future prince of the Number Gang, to the skies, and directly made him Ma Wenfeng's "stabilizing force", the "stabilizing force" of the Baishi Island project.

As a result, this is it?
In front of Lu Yaowen, Zhang Baishi's magic needle seemed to be made of plastic and was as light as a feather.

At this moment, Guo Kailin has made up her mind to reach a cooperation with Lu Yaowen and make Lu Yaowen her "stabilizing force".

Thinking of this, Guo Kailin immediately said, "Mr. Lu, I really want to cooperate with you, so I won't hide it from you."

“Our Guo Group will invest 2 billion to build Baishi Island in three phases. The first phase is to build the dock and the main casino, which is expected to be completed in one and a half years;
The second phase is to build a resort hotel, which can be completed about a year after the first phase is completed;
The third phase is to build a mountain golf course, which will be completed about a year after the second phase of the resort hotel is completed.”

"After Baishi Island is fully developed, it will become the highest-end leisure and entertainment venue in the Greater Bay Area and even in Southeast Asia. Mr. Lu, if the security of Baishi Island is in the charge of you and Liansheng, your and Liansheng's reputation will definitely be greatly enhanced."

Guo Kailin did not negotiate terms with Lu Yaowen first, but painted a rosy picture for Lu Yaowen so that she could "lower the price" later. Compared with Ma Wenfeng, Guo Kailin is obviously much smarter.

"Ms. Guo, I have been fed countless cakes drawn by you rich people since I was a child. Let's just talk about the conditions directly."

Faced with Guo Kailin's empty promises, Lu Yaowen didn't take it to heart at all.

"Ten million per year in security fees, and ten percent in dividends."

After listening to Lu Yaowen's words, Guo Kailin directly put forward her own conditions.

"Ms. Guo, your island needs at least 300 permanent security guards, and they need to be equipped with weapons. Even if it's just the salary and training fees for so many people, it will cost at least tens of millions every year, not to mention the extra money for medicine and resettlement fees if something happens."

Lu Yaowen's words and actions meant only one thing: add more money!

"Mr. Lu, I sincerely want to cooperate with you. 20 million security fees per year and 12% profit share, this is the highest price I can offer."

Guo Kailin looked at Lu Yaowen sincerely and said slowly.

"Ms. Guo, I'm curious, what conditions did Ma Wenfeng set for the number helper?"

Lu Yaowen did not comment on the conditions set by Guo Kailin, but asked for information about the "competitors".

"Ten million in security fees, ten percent in dividends."

Guo Kailin answered directly.

"Zhang Zhiyong is doing charity..."

Before Lu Yaowen finished speaking, he suddenly thought of the relationship between Ma Wenfeng and Zhang Baishi, and immediately understood that Zhang Zhiyong was not trying to make money, but to eat people.

Thinking of this, Lu Yaowen looked at Guo Kailin. She was a dignified, elegant and wealthy lady from a noble family. She was definitely the best target for a gigolo.

But Lu Yaowen has always been a soft-hearted person, so:

"Ms. Guo, I'm actually very optimistic about your White Rock Island Casino project. How about this? I also invest 300 million Hong Kong dollars, and you give me 30% of the shares of the White Rock Island project. How about that?"

If Lu Yaowen wanted to use the money from Zhongxinyi openly in Hong Kong Island, he would need to launder it slowly. He might as well use it to invest in the Guo Group. In addition, the Guo Group must have solved the arms problem from the Portuguese. Otherwise, if a group of pirates came, wouldn’t they loot the entire island?
In this way, Lu Yaowen can help Baishi Island with security, train his own armed forces, build training grounds on Baishi Island, and even get a few armed ships...

Of course, these are all things that happened later. Now, the most important thing for Lu Yaowen is to deal with Guo Kailin and help Guo Kailin complete the Baishi Island project.

"..."

After hearing Lu Yaowen's conditions, Guo Kailin was stunned. She welcomed the investment, but Lu Yaowen wanted to take 30% of the shares of a 2 billion project for an investment of 300 million. This...

"Mr. Lu, I..."

Guo Kailin just opened her mouth when Lu Yaowen interrupted her: "Ms. Guo, please listen to me. Originally, if you wanted me to be responsible for security, you had to give me a 12% dividend, which means that I only need 18% of the shares for 300 million Hong Kong dollars. And if I become a shareholder, will I pay more attention to the security of Baishi Island?"

"..."

What Lu Yaowen said did make some sense, but Guo Kailin always felt that something was wrong.

At this time, Lu Yaowen added the final fuel to the fire.

"Ms. Guo, given the size of your Guo Group, a 2 billion project must be the one that determines the future direction of the entire group. I dare to conclude that whoever gets this project between you and Ma Wenfeng will be the future leader of the Guo Group."

"Ms. Guo, if you cooperate with me, you will only pay some shares of Baishi Island, but if you don't cooperate with me, you will lose the entire Guo Group."

Lu Yaowen's words, like a bomb, exploded in Guo Kailin's mind, and made her immediately and thoroughly understand a truth: she had to have the Guo Group first before she could consider the interests of the Guo Group.

Thinking of this, Guo Kailin immediately said: "Mr. Lu, I agree to your terms." "Ms. Guo, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

Lu Yaowen extended his right hand to Guo Kailin.

"Happy cooperation!"

Guo Kailin also stretched out her right hand and shook hands with Lu Yaowen.

At this moment, Guo Kailin felt the rock-hard weight in Lu Yaowen's palm, while Lu Yaowen felt Guo Kailin's softness, bonelessness and tenderness.

After confirming the cooperative relationship, Guo Kailin directly revealed the details to Lu Yaowen.

"Mr. Lu, the Ma family has a great influence in our Guo Group. To defeat my sister Ma Wenfeng, it is not enough to just slightly suppress the Number Gang and Zhang Baishi. You need to have a big advantage to shut up these Ma family members."

Guo Kailin said slowly.

"Ms. Guo, the systems of the five major societies in Hong Kong Island are that Sun Kee and Hung Hing are family-run, Tung Sing is abdication, and we and Luen Shing are election-based. Do you know what the Number Gang is?"

After listening to Guo Kailin's words, Lu Yaowen asked with a smile.

Guo Kailin shook her head and said, "Mr. Lu, I have been studying abroad. My father fell seriously ill a year ago, so I returned to Hong Kong Island to get involved in the family business. I don't know much about the affairs of these associations in Hong Kong Island."

"The Number Gang uses the word pile method to divide the country. The person in charge of each word pile can be compared to a prince. When the center, or the leader, is the strongest, it can command these princes. However, once the center weakens, it will completely lose control over these princes."

"Today's number gangs are the three 'lords' number gangs: Yi, De and Mei."

At this point, Lu Yaowen smiled slightly: "If the Yi group takes over the Baishi Island project, or even the Guo Group, its power will surely expand rapidly and surpass the other two groups."

"At that time, would Zhang Zhiyong, who was full of Yi characters, still only want to be a 'prince king'?"

Lu Yaowen looked at Guo Kailin and asked with a smile.

"Mr. Lu, what do you mean?"

Guo Kailin's eyes flashed slightly, as if she had understood what Lu Yaowen meant.

"Miss Guo, you are very lucky. The number gang has three characters, and He Liansheng is dominated by me, Lu Yaowen!"

Lu Yaowen smiled slightly and said slowly.

Looking at this confident and high-spirited handsome man in front of her, Guo Kailin felt her heartbeat speed up a little bit...

……

That afternoon, King's Park Villa District.

After Zhang Baishi finished having lunch with Ma Wenfeng, he hurried back here and reported the news that Guo Kailin and Lu Yaowen were together to his father Zhang Zhiyong in person.

"Dad, we must find a way to stop Lu Yaowen from interfering in the affairs of the Guo Group, otherwise something unexpected will happen!"

Zhang Baishi was a little anxious.

He had tolerated Ma Wenfeng, that unruly and capricious girl, for several months, and his hair had turned white with anger. He didn't want to end up with nothing.

"..."

Zhang Zhiyong frowned slightly but didn't say anything. It was obvious that Lu Yaowen's sudden joining made him feel very difficult.

A few minutes later, Zhang Zhiyong spoke up and said, “With the power that Ma Wenfeng’s father left in the Guo Group, even if Guo Kailin gets Lu Yaowen’s help, it will be very difficult for him to defeat you and Ma Wenfeng.”

Hearing Zhang Zhiyong's words, Zhang Baishi immediately wanted to speak, but before he could open his mouth, Zhang Zhiyong continued: "But Baishi, you are right. Lu Yaowen should not be underestimated. We must prepare in advance."

"Dad, what are you going to do?"

Zhang Baishi asked immediately.

"Lu Yaowen's rapid rise is a good thing for him, but it is definitely a bad thing for all other societies in Hong Kong Island, and even for them and other leaders of Liansheng."

"Lu Yaowen has offended too many people, including Hongxing and Changyi. It is said that Luotuo also had a falling out with Lu Yaowen at Dongxing yesterday. If these people can be linked together, do you think Lu Yaowen will still be willing to cooperate with the Guo Group?"

Zhang Zhiyong said slowly.

"Dad, what you said makes sense, but how do we connect these people?"

Zhang Baishi scratched his head and asked in confusion.

"They're missing the needle that holds them together, and we can be the needle."

Zhang Zhiyong said slowly.

“Okay, Dad, if so many societies unite, they can definitely destroy Lu Yaowen!”

Zhang Baishi thought of the humiliation he suffered at the Peninsula Hotel at noon, and a hint of pleasure in revenge flashed in his eyes. He seemed to have seen the scene of Lu Yaowen kneeling in front of him and begging for mercy.

"Bai Shi, I've been teaching you for more than ten years, why haven't you made any progress?"

As a result, to Zhang Baishi's surprise, Zhang Zhiyong started scolding as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Dad, why..."

"Bai Shi, remember, if you want to get involved, the best strategy is to overwhelm others with your strength and defeat them without fighting. Fighting with real swords and guns is the worst strategy. After linking up Hongxing and Dongxing, I can use them to pressure Lu Yaowen and force him to give up the cooperation with Guo. Fighting and killing is the last step."

Zhang Zhiyong said slowly.

"Dad, I understand."

Zhang Baishi was very unhappy with what Zhang Zhiyong said, but knowing his father's temper well, he suppressed his unhappiness and said it with a "sincere" look on his face.

"I will invite Jiang Tiansheng, Luotuo, and Big Brother Pan to have tea in the next few days. You can talk to Ma Wenfeng and ask her to find a way to get the Guo Group's board of directors to hold a meeting as soon as possible to decide on the ownership of the Baishi Island project."

Zhang Zhiyong said lightly.

"Dad, you're going to talk to Jiang Tiansheng and the others, why do you want the Guo Group to decide who will own the Baishi Island project in advance?"

Zhang Baishi asked with some confusion.

"Jiang Tiansheng, Luotuo, and Big Brother Pan are all experienced people who have been in the business for decades. I am not sure that I can link them together, so I have to make plans for both scenarios. Even if my plan fails, Guo Kailin will not be able to convince some neutral shareholders in a hurry. Then you and Ma Wenfeng will still win."

At this point, Zhang Zhiyong paused slightly, looked at Zhang Baishi, and said earnestly: "Baishi, don't treat others as fools, otherwise you will be the biggest fool."

Hearing this, Zhang Baishi nodded heavily.

Immediately, Zhang Zhiyong walked to the phone, picked up the receiver, and dialed a number.

"Mr. Jiang, I, Zhang Zhiyong, am free tonight. Let's go out and have dinner together."

"There is a small matter. Let's talk about it in person."

……

On the other side, after discussing cooperation with Guo Kailin, Lu Yaowen rushed to Mount Kellett, to Tang Judy's villa.

"Sister Judy, you seem to be in a good mood today. Are you on vacation at home instead of going to work?"

Lu Yaowen looked at Tang Judy, who was dressed in a mature style, and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Tang Judy rolled her eyes at Lu Yaowen and said unhappily, "It's all because of you. I'm still a married man. If a handsome guy like you keeps running into my office, wouldn't those paparazzi at Fruit Daily go crazy?"

"Sister Judy, don't tell me, I can think of all the headlines of those paparazzi."

"A beautiful mature woman has found a rain after a long drought, and a handsome young man is risking his life to make money."

Lu Yaowen laughed.

"Fuck you, if you have something to say, say it now, if you have to fart, fart now."

Tang Judy rolled her eyes at Lu Yaowen and said lightly.

"Sister Judy, I hope that Shimao Real Estate can publicly sign a contract with my security company at an appropriate time."

Lu Yaowen put away his smile and spoke to Tang Judy in a serious tone.

"why?"

Tang Judy's eyes flashed and she asked.

"To prove my strength, of course."

Lu Yaowen smiled slightly and said slowly.
