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

Chapter 146 [145] He Liansheng has been building a business for decades, and brothers are on my shoulders.
Mount Kadoorie, inside Judy Tang's villa.

"It's up to you. Just let me know in advance when you need me to make it public."

After listening to Lu Yaowen's words, Tang Judy looked at Lu Yaowen deeply and said lightly.

"Thank you, Miss Judy."

Lu Yaowen nodded and smiled.

"I've researched the club you mentioned before these days, and I found that there are already such clubs in Eagle Country and America..."

Tang Judy didn't finish her words, but was interrupted by Lu Yaowen shaking his head: "Sister Judy, it's different. Clubs like theirs only hold gatherings on fixed days and only provide services to members. Moreover, the higher the level of the club, the more stringent the conditions for joining. Strictly speaking, this is not called a club, but an organization."

"I want to cooperate with you to set up a purely service-oriented trading venue. Anyone who meets the requirements can come to this venue to trade everything they need. Perhaps in the future we can select some of our customers for deeper cooperation, but this will not affect the nature of the club's trading venue."

"Sister Judy, you may not make a lot of money in this kind of place, but it will be very helpful for your influence in the business and even political circles of Hong Kong Island."

After listening to Lu Yaowen's words, Tang Judy pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "I have a building in Kowloon City..."

"Sister Judy, this kind of club needs to be built in the most central location of the city. It can not only demonstrate our strength, but also provide the club's members with the most distinguished experience."

Lu Yaowen interrupted.

"I have to think of a reason to convince the shareholders on the board of directors to use the properties in Tsim Sha Tsui and Central to run a club with little profit."

Obviously, Judy Tang was moved.

"Sister Judy, I can invest 300 million Hong Kong dollars in this club and get 50% of the shares, so you can rest assured that you can let me run this club."

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

Hearing what Lu Yaowen said, a hint of surprise flashed in Tang Judy's eyes. She never expected that Lu Yaowen was so optimistic about this club that he was willing to invest 300 million yuan?
"Awen, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just your identity?"

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Judy said cautiously.

Although Tang Judy didn't finish her words, she had made her meaning clear. Lu Yaowen's identity as a gangster would directly lead to the club's grade being lowered.

"Don't worry, Sister Judy. I have found the best manager for the club. I will stay hidden in the dark. The boss of the club is just you!"

Lu Yaowen said with a smile.

"it is good."

Tang Judy nodded slowly.

……

When Lu Yaowen returned to Shanghai Street, Qi Jingsheng came up to him as soon as he got off the car, looking a little embarrassed, and said, "Brother Wen, I have something I want to trouble you with."

"Jingsheng, we are all family, why are you so polite? Just tell me what you want to say."

"You've fallen in love with that girl, so you want me to help you find a matchmaker, right?"

Lu Yaowen looked at Qi Jingsheng and said with a smile.

"No, no, it has nothing to do with women."

Qi Jingsheng said quickly.

"Brother Wen, two of my comrades came to Hong Kong Island to join me..."

"Let's go and meet your comrades."

Before Qi Jingsheng could finish his words, Lu Yaowen spoke directly with a smile.

"Brother Wen, thank you."

A hint of emotion flashed across Qi Jingsheng's eyes.

"Jingsheng, anyone who can be your comrade-in-arms must be a good man. I'm in urgent need of manpower right now, so I should thank you."

"By the way, what are the names of your two comrades?"

Lu Yaowen asked with a smile as he walked.

"They are two brothers, one is called Wang Jianjun and the other is called Wang Jianguo."

Qi Jingsheng replied quickly.

"..."

After hearing Qi Jingsheng's answer, Lu Yaowen was slightly stunned, and then the smile on his face became even brighter.

At the same time, in a room.

"Don't worry, little brother. If the boss of Jingsheng doesn't accept us, we will create a world for ourselves in Hong Kong Island. Anyway, I said, I will never let you suffer again!"

Wang Jianjun looked at Wang Jianguo, whose face looked a little gloomy, and said with a smile.

"Brother, I'm not afraid that Jingsheng's boss won't accept us, it's just that people like Jingsheng also have to flee to Hong Kong Island, hey!"

Wang Jianguo shook his head and sighed.

Hearing Wang Jianguo's words, Wang Jianjun's eyes flashed with emotion, but then he became as firm as steel: "Brother, in this world, the only things we can trust are our own fists and our own brothers!"

'Papapapa~'

After Wang Jianjun finished speaking, applause broke out outside the door. Wang Jianjun's eyes flashed, and he turned his head to look at the door, his muscles tensed up a little.

Only after seeing Qi Jingsheng did Wang Jianjun relax and carefully look at Lu Yaowen who was standing next to Qi Jingsheng.

"Jianjun, Jianguo, let me introduce to you my current boss, Lu Yaowen."

"Brother Wen, this is Wang Jianjun, and this is Wang Jianguo."

Qi Jingsheng quickly introduced Lu Yaowen, Wang Jianjun and Wang Jianguo to each other.

"Jianjun, Jianguo, Jingsheng is my brother, and you are Jingsheng's brothers. You are also my Lu Yaowen's friends. I will definitely accept you, but..."

As he spoke, Lu Yaowen extended his right hand towards Wang Jianjun.

Seeing this scene, Wang Jianjun immediately understood that this extremely handsome young man wanted to test his strength.

Wang Jianjun, who was extremely confident, even arrogant, stretched out his right hand without hesitation and shook hands with Lu Yaowen.

then……

Wang Jianjun had never felt so powerless before. As Lu Yaowen exerted his strength, Wang Jianjun quickly lost the ability to resist and could only allow Lu Yaowen to control him.

However, even though his palms were cracking from being squeezed, Wang Jianjun remained silent and persisted with gritted teeth.

Ten seconds later.

"Jianjun, you will get the same salary as Jingsheng, 30,000 Hong Kong dollars a month. If there are extra tasks for you to do, you will be paid extra money."

Lu Yaowen let go of Wang Jianjun's hand and said lightly.

Then, Lu Yaowen extended his hand to Wang Jianguo.

"Mr. Lu, just give my brother 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a month."

Wang Jianjun secretly shook his right hand and spoke to Lu Yaowen.

Wang Jianjun, who felt sorry for his younger brother, naturally didn't want Wang Jianguo to suffer the same "hardship".

It's just that Wang Jianjun underestimated a man's desire to win...

Twenty seconds later, looking at Wang Jianguo with a distorted face, Wang Jianjun had only one thought in his mind, 'If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer the consequences.'

"Jianguo, just like your brother said, I'll pay you 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a month for extra work, is that okay?"

Lu Yaowen looked at Wang Jianguo, whose face was a little distorted, and asked with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Wen!"

People who come out of the army respect the strong. Lu Yaowen is rich and powerful, so the two brothers Wang Jianjun and Wang Jianguo were easily convinced.

Lu Yaowen took out a checkbook from his pocket, wrote down a string of numbers in a flamboyant manner, signed his name and handed it to Qi Jingsheng: "Jingsheng, take your two comrades to stroll around Hong Kong Island and buy clothes, daily necessities, mobile phones and so on."

After saying that, Lu Yaowen turned and left.

Soon, Wang Jianjun and Wang Jianguo were stunned when they saw the amount of 50,000 Hong Kong dollars on the check. They only earned a few dozen yuan a month working in the mainland, but now Lu Yaowen could easily get 50,000 Hong Kong dollars.

"Brother, it seems we are following the right person."

Wang Jianguo looked at Wang Jianjun excitedly and said.

"Jianjun, Jianguo, you can rest assured about Brother Wen. He is well-known for his righteousness. When his opponent's wife and children were robbed of their inheritance, he stepped forward to help get it back. He is even more loyal to his own people. Absolutely."

Qi Jingsheng gave a big thumbs up.

"Jingsheng, as long as Mr. Lu is worthy of us, we must be worthy of Mr. Lu."

Compared with Wang Jianguo, Wang Jianjun's expression remained calm, but from his words, we can tell that his heart was not as calm as his expression.

……

That night, Sham Shui Po, Jiujiang Street, Wan Kee Seafood Restaurant.

"Mr. Jiang, this restaurant was opened the year I debuted, and it has been more than 30 years."

"In my fourth year of debut, I killed Master Tang from the Water Room, and then brought a few brothers here to celebrate. Not long after that, I was awarded the title of Red Stick. Since then, I have discussed matters with others here."

"It's a pity that those brothers are no longer with me, some dead and some disabled."

Zhang Zhiyong poured beer for Jiang Tiansheng while reminiscing about the past.

"The road to the underworld is a road of no return. Brother Yong, I salute your brothers."

Jiang Tiansheng picked up the glass in front of him, said this, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, we are all walking on thin ice every day. Who dares to say that he can definitely make it to the other side?" "Hong Kong Emperor Ge Zhaohuang was deported and died in a foreign land; Wan Chai Emperor Chen Tai was forced to retire from the underworld and could only open a Chinese medicine clinic on Lockhart Road; and the first red stick brother of Liansheng, Cheng, fled to Siam and now he is unknown whether he is alive or dead."

After Zhang Zhiyong sighed, he drank the wine in his glass and then filled Jiang Tiansheng's glass again...

"Brother Yong, you didn't really just want me to drink with you and lament about the impermanence of life, did you?"

After drinking a few glasses with Zhang Zhiyong, seeing that Zhang Zhiyong was still sighing, Jiang Tiansheng couldn't hold it anymore and asked.

"Mr. Jiang, some people in the underworld of Hong Kong Island are too prosperous. When the water is full, it overflows; when the moon is full, it wanes."

Zhang Zhiyong said slowly.

Hearing Zhang Zhiyong's words, Jiang Tiansheng's eyes flickered slightly. He probably understood why this leader of the Number Gang Yizidui wanted to drink with him.

But since Zhang Zhiyong likes to keep people in suspense, Jiang Tiansheng pretended not to understand and see how long Zhang Zhiyong can endure.

"Mr. Jiang, more than ten years ago, Inspector Lei led the five major gangs in Hong Kong to besiege Wo Hop To. At that time, the leader of Hongxing was still Mr. Jiang Zhen. I remember it very clearly. That night, the police force seemed to disappear, leaving the entire Hong Kong Island to our gangs."

"So what if Chen Tai turned Lockhart Road into Chen Tai Street? After that night, he should just quit the underworld."

At this point, Zhang Zhiyong looked at Jiang Tiansheng and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, Lu Yaowen is just as arrogant as Chen Tai in the past. He has forgotten what it means that two fists cannot defeat four hands, and a vicious tiger is afraid of a pack of wolves!"

"Brother Yong, do you guys at Yizidui want to go to war with Heliansheng?"

Jiang Tiansheng went straight to the point.

"I don't want to go to war with Lu Yaowen. I want to let Lu Yaowen know what peace is the most precious thing."

Zhang Zhiyong said with a smile.

After hearing what Zhang Zhiyong said, Jiang Tiansheng pondered for a moment before speaking calmly, "Brother Yong, if you want to borrow the power of our Hongxing, you can't borrow it for nothing, right?"

Jiang Tiansheng nodded, but not completely.

Zhang Zhiyong didn't say anything, but just dipped his hand in beer and wrote a few words on the table.

After seeing these words, Jiang Tiansheng nodded slowly.

At this moment, the words can be barely seen through the remaining water stains.

Wan Chai, Chan Man-hung...

……

Also on the same night, in a private room at the 348 nightclub in Tsim Sha Tsui.

This is the most popular nightclub in Tsim Sha Tsui and also the base of Hong Hanyi, the leader of the Number Gang.

"Brother Teddy, I've heard a lot about you."

Lu Yaowen looked at the tall, horse-faced man in front of him and said with a smile.

"Awen, I have long heard of your great name."

Hong Hanyi was very polite to Lu Yaowen, the leader of He Liansheng.

"Tsim Sha Tsui is a Feng Shui treasure land. Brother Teddy is also capable. He built a treasure pot in this Feng Shui treasure land."

Lu Yaowen continued to chat with Hong Hanyi and had no intention of talking about business.

"What cornucopia? It's just a small fight."

Hong Hanyi was obviously quite straightforward. After saying this modestly, he immediately asked, "Awen, you are a distinguished guest. You should not come to me for no reason. Tell me what you want to talk to me about."

"Brother Teddy, I heard that it was originally your turn to be the next head of the Number Gang, but you were so noble and gave it to Zhang Zhiyong."

Lu Yaowen said with a smile.

"What noble character? Hu Xuyong was shot. Many people suspected that I was the one who did it. I was crazy enough to send gunmen to shoot him. I'd rather not be the chairman of this rubbish bank."

Hong Hanyi started cursing directly.

"Brother Taidi, have you ever thought that Zhang Zhiyong's shooting was a self-directed and self-acted one?"

Lu Yaowen said faintly.

Hearing what Lu Yaowen said, Hong Hanyi's face changed slightly, and the anger that was just on his face disappeared instantly. He said to the horseman beside him lightly: "Xiao Ma, all of you go out, I want to talk to Ah Wen alone."

It is obvious that Hong Hanyi's straightforwardness is just a disguise. A truly straightforward person can never reach Hong Hanyi's status.

When only Lu Yaowen and himself were left in the box, Hong Hanyi said calmly, "Ah Wen, things have already happened. Whether it's true or not, I can't jump out and invalidate what I said before and become the boss of the Number Gang."

"Brother Teddy, you should know about the Guo Group in Hong Kong Island, right?"

Lu Yaowen ignored Hong Hanyi's words and continued to ask.

Hong Hanyi didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

"Zhang Zhiyong deliberately wanted to become the head of the number gang in advance in order to cooperate with the Guo Group. His son Zhang Baishi's girlfriend is Ma Wenfeng, the eldest daughter of the Guo Group. It is said that the two will get married soon."

"Brother Teddy, you should know the scale of the Guo Group better than I do. If the Zhang family and the Guo Group become one, then the Yi character piled up in the Number Gang will soon be the only one in the group. What do you think will happen then?"

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

"Awen, the Number Gang is divided into households but not families. Please don't sow discord among the brothers in our society."

Hong Hanyi looked at Lu Yaowen deeply and said quietly.

"Brother Teddy, it's true that the Number Gang is divided into households but not families, but even brothers have their closeness and distance, not to mention the brothers in your society. I'm afraid that you treat others as your brothers, but others treat you as their younger brother."

Lu Yaowen said with a smile.

"..."

Hong Hanyi didn't say anything, but just looked at Lu Yaowen quietly.

"Brother Teddy, I have already revealed the script to you in advance. It's up to you whether you want to cooperate with me in acting out a scene or not."

After that, Lawrence Lu stood up. Hong Hanyi, who was still in deep thought, smiled and said, “Brother Taidi, think about it slowly. I’ll take my leave first.”

Upon hearing this, Hong Hanyi looked up at Lu Yaowen's back, and did not withdraw his gaze until he disappeared outside the box door.

A few minutes later.

Looking at the busy traffic outside the 348 Nightclub, Lu Yaowen shook his head and smiled, "No wonder the people from Liansheng dream of breaking into Tsim Sha Tsui. Now I want to break into Tsim Sha Tsui too."

On the same night, Lu Yaowen went to Sham Shui Po again and met with Li Xiangye, the leader of the Number Gang. Li Xiangye, who was known for his eloquence and calculation, did not comment on Lu Yaowen's words, just like Hong Hanyi.

……

The next day, at noon, Yao Wen Film Company.

"Awen."

Long Gen walked into Lu Yaowen's office and said to Lu Yaowen with a smile.

"Uncle Long Gen, if you have anything to say, just call me. Why do you have to come here in person?"

Lu Yaowen has always been so "respectful" to his elders.

"Hahaha, Awen, I have something to tell you. After that, I'm going to Shanghai Street."

Long Gen had an expression that said 'all men understand'.

"Uncle Long Gen, I always felt something was missing when you said you didn't charge me. After thinking about it, I decided to respect your hobby, so I specifically told Tong En that after the maids have served you, they must charge you."

Lu Yaowen said to Long Gen with a smile.

"what?"

"Awen, I was just joking with you before."

Long Gen's face froze and he quickly explained.

"Uncle Long Gen, I was just joking with you."

Lu Yaowen laughed.

"Awen, you really are a brat!"

Long Gen pointed at Lu Yaowen and said with a smile, then continued: "Awen, according to the rules, the new leader must hold a ceremony, receive the dragon head stick and swear an oath in front of the ancestors, and then carry the dragon head stick to all the halls of the society, so that the brothers in the society can all recognize you as the new leader."

"After this is done, the decades-long foundation of He Liansheng and the fifty thousand brothers will be officially handed over to you, the new leader."

After listening to Long Gen's words, Lu Yaowen smiled and said, "Uncle Long Gen, your uncles can take charge of these ceremonies..."

At this point, Lu Yaowen seemed to think of something, paused slightly, and then continued: "Uncle Long Gen, has the date for the opening ceremony been set?"

"The seventh of next month."

Long Gen replied immediately.

"Uncle Long Gen, I want to start a ceremony in five days."

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

"Okay, I will talk to the incense master in charge of opening the altar and ask him to open the altar in five days."

Long Gen now completely focused on Lu Yaowen. After listening to Lu Yaowen's words, he didn't ask anything and just nodded in agreement.

"Uncle Long Gen, thank you for your help."

Lu Yaowen did not tell Long Gen that five days later, Zhang Zhiyong, the new leader of the Number Gang, would take over.

In the past, the handover of the Number Gang was relatively low-key, but this time, in order to build momentum for himself, Zhang Zhiyong made a grand event and invited many people, even Lu Yaowen was invited.

Lu Yaowen is going to take over the dragon head stick on the same day, and he is going to step hard on Zhang Zhiyong!
　Brothers, the update the day before yesterday was too stressful. I've been stuck for the past two days. There will be 2 more chapters later.
