Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 345 122: Excellent Eloquence
(Thanks to the little boy who loves to read historical novels for his continuous feeding. Thank you for your support. I wish you all the best!)
(Dear masters, dear leaders, the recent monthly tickets are too bleak. For the next recommendation, Ah Xian can only beg for recommendation shamelessly!)
Whoever owns the territory has the final say!
There is indeed nothing wrong with that!

"No one is interested in my real name. When I'm on the road, everyone uses nicknames. It's safer this way! You can call me Teacher Li."

"In fact, we have discussed it. When you plotted to trap the Eight-Faced Buddha, I cooperated with you very much. Otherwise, you wouldn't have killed the Eight-Faced Buddha so easily. After all, this guy is not crazy."

"The reason why Yaqi from Yiqun didn't bother you and sent a few dirty rats to shoot you to death was because of me. Yaqi thought that I was the one behind the internal fight, and that I started supplying goods to Yiqun again, so Yaqi spared your life."

"All in all, I saved you twice. If you include this time, it's three times!"

"Don't keep a straight face when facing your lifesaver. Smile!"

Teacher Li sat on the chair, took off his top hat and placed it on the large blue and white porcelain plate on the coffee table.

"No! It wasn't you who saved my life, it was me who saved my own life."

"Even when the big boss is here, Yaqi doesn't dare to make a move. I'm the boss of the water room. If you touch me, it will be a big fight between the two sides. Even if Shenxianjin doesn't want to do it, my minions will do it."

"Because whoever does it will be the next boss of the Yau Ma Tei Tong!"

"The poor kid with nothing and the powerful gangster, everything is fifty-fifty!"

"Young and Dangerous people don't follow the rules of the underworld. If they say they'll kill the boss and his entire family, then they'll kill the boss and his entire family. When Lei Luo was so powerful, someone planted a peanut on his leg."

"No need to flatter you! If I'm not mistaken, you are the friend introduced by Xiren. The Xiren in my mouth is the Jessica in your ears."

"Stop talking nonsense! It's the business of the underworld. Tell me what you want to say!"

The favor of being a lifesaver cannot be easily owed. Chi Mengli does not want to owe such a big favor to someone without knowing it, so he asked Teacher Li to tell him the intention as soon as possible.

"Young people are always impatient!"

"Even if I'm not your savior, I'm still your comrade in the same trench. Although we have different bosses behind us, our goals are the same now."

Teacher Li coughed and put his hand in his pocket.

"Wait a moment, take the things out of your pocket slowly, if you don't want your head to explode."

Chi Mengli pointed the gun at Teacher Li and asked him to slow down, even slower, and not force himself to shoot.

"I don't like the word 'needle' because it is too derogatory. Hong Kong people are very good at using metaphors. The 'needle' of an undercover agent is not the embroidery needle, but the needle of a needlehead. You are a young man and have not seen the prosperous scene of the past. After all, this is not the 1950s or 1960s!"

"There are drug stalls all over the streets, and when you turn on the street lights, you can see needles in the gutters."

"Embroidery needles can be reused, but the needles can only be used once. But even if it's an embroidery needle, if it's lost, it's lost. As long as you make sure it doesn't fall into clothes or on bedding, everything will be fine. If it's lost, it's lost."

"Young man, even though the scent on you is very faint, an expert can smell it at a glance."

"The people in the underworld are not the noble and upright people in Jin Yong's novels. They need to rely on evidence when doing things. If they think you are not good, they will shoot you immediately and send you to sell salted duck eggs."

"You need to make the smell a little lighter, and it would be best if you could get some blood on it, so that you can blend in with the underworld. Although you can save your life, you can't turn back!"

Teacher Li valued his life very much. He slowly pulled his hand out, took out the cigar box, opened it in front of Chi Mengli, took out a small cigar, lit it with a lighter, and said with a smile: "When I first met Xiren, she was also called this name."

"She got this weird name Jessica when she went to study in the United States."

"The brothel owner who trained Xiren was an old friend of mine. She sold Xiren to me for only 350,000 yuan."

"But I want to make one thing clear. Xiren is not mine. She is very confused now and hopes to find a new captain to rely on."

Chi Mengli felt a little annoyed by the weird middle-aged man in front of him. If all the people in the martial arts world were like this, he would be very disappointed. But now was not the right time to show his disappointment. He cleared his throat and said, "You cheated me."

"You haven't explained your intention yet!"

"I'll give you five seconds, five...four...three."

"Stop! You are such an impatient fellow, you know! There are many young people in the martial arts world who are ready to listen to my teachings, and are even willing to devote their entire fortune to me!"

"OK, to make a long story short, I'm here to stop your deal with Situ Tiangang!"

Seeing that Chi Mengli had already pulled the trigger, Teacher Li stopped talking and directly stated the purpose.

"I'm sorry you're late!"

Chi Mengli believed that he did not have the elegant hobby of licking back the saliva, so he could only tell Teacher Li that he was late.

"The person Situ Tiangang wants to save is the Eight-Faced Buddha, and the Eight-Faced Buddha is now in Hong Kong."

"You killed the Eight-Faced Buddha's chief and a bunch of his lackeys. The Eight-Faced Buddha will not let you off. Although he will kill me first after escaping, I promise that you will be the second one."

When he learned that he was a step too late, Teacher Li could only sigh with a little regret: "Situ Tiangang will start tonight. I know there is a coffin shop in Sheung Wan, and there are two golden nanmu coffins in it."

"The Feng Shui master said that I am destined to be rich and have two precious flowers. Since I am going to die soon, I must not treat myself badly. Chi Sheng and I hit it off right away. I will also help pay for your coffin!"

Hearing Teacher Li being so generous, Chi Mengli sneered and stopped being polite: "It just so happens that I am the opposite of Teacher Li. I don't have two flowers in my destiny, but the Feng Shui master said that I will have a long life and can live to be ninety-nine."

"So I don't need any filial sons or grandsons to buy me a coffin to see me off to the grave!"

"Situ Tiangang asked me to buy weapons, but I don't have any. This loser is trying to save the Eight-Faced Buddha with a machete."

"Since we are all comrades, let's finish this scene together. I want to know why Situ Tiangang wants to save the Eight-Faced Buddha?"

Young people, you just don’t know how to control your words!

However, after hearing that Chi Mengli was confident that he could finish the show, Teacher Li did not hide anything and told him everything he knew. The Eight-Faced Buddha was called the Eight-Faced Buddha because this guy worshipped the Vajra of Tantric Buddhism at home. This Buddha is the main deity of the Supreme Yoga School of Tibetan Buddhism, with nine faces and thirty-four arms, representing the subjugation of the death demon.

People saw gods and Buddhas bowing their heads, so they named it the Eight-Faced Buddha.

The Vajrabhairava statue of Tantric Buddhism enshrined in the Eight-Faced Buddha's home is one meter high and half a meter wide. He used one hundred taels of gold and hired the most famous craftsmen in Bangkok to successfully create this golden Buddha.

One hundred taels of gold is valuable, but not worth it for Situ Tiangang, a young man with a strong background in the underworld, to risk his life.

The Eight-Faced Buddha has an address book. The old man felt that the safe was not safe, so he carved the address book on the arm of the golden Buddha holding the demon-subduing pestle.

Teacher Li returned to the base camp of the Eight-Faced Buddha, killed everyone there, and swallowed up a large batch of goods from the Eight-Faced Buddha. When he was preparing to start over and open a new business, he found that the address book was not in the safe.

This address book contains not only customer information, but also the intelligence that MI5 needs.

Because many of the customers of the Eight-Faced Buddha are Chinese, they sometimes need to transfer some of the Eight-Faced Buddha’s goods to use as activity funds.

Teacher Li was dumbfounded. He spent a lot of money and searched for a whole month before he got the secret out of the Eight-Faced Buddha's lover.

But the useless people in the Political Department were unable to pry open the mouth of the Eight-Faced Buddha. The Overseas Colonial Office did not hand him over to the Home Ministry because of internal strife, but the Home Secretary also did not speak for various reasons.

But the infighting at the top made it difficult for Mr. Li and other front-line staff. He had no choice but to come to Hong Kong in person, hoping to pry open the mouth of the Eight-Faced Buddha, get the Golden Buddha, and then ask for the code book. Finally, he could melt the Golden Buddha into gold bricks and buy himself a new yacht.

But as soon as Teacher Li arrived in Hong Kong, everything changed. Someone was putting pressure on the Eight-Faced Buddha to shut up. The Eight-Faced Buddha, who was hiding in the safe house of the Political Department, was assassinated one after another.

This guy is desperately trying to change safe houses, and the Political Department has also raised the security level to the highest level. Until now, Teacher Li doesn't know where the Eight-Faced Buddha is hiding.

However, a day ago, Teacher Li received information that the Hongmen headquarters had decided to step in and take care of everything. They received a large sum of money and, in accordance with Hongmen rules, wrote a blood oath and burned it to the ancestor in heaven.

Representatives of the two messenger families attended the blood letter burning ceremony, which means that if the Hongmen Headquarters fails to complete the task, Situ Tiangang and the Second Master of the Litang, who served as the guarantor, will have their heads exploded into rotten watermelons.

Representatives from the water room also attended the blood-written ceremony, issued pawn tickets, and formally participated.

"Situ Tiangang is not a playboy. Two days ago, a cargo ship arrived in Hong Kong. He had already got the stuff that Situ Tiangang needed. He bought the stuff you had just to muddy the waters."

"Fool! If I didn't see that you had a grudge against the Eight-Faced Buddha, I wouldn't have helped you!"

"Here's another piece of gossip for you. The person who wanted the Eight-Faced Buddha to shut up was Song Sheng. The last person the Eight-Faced Buddha saw at the Peninsula Hotel was the professor, Song Sheng's beloved little darling. If the professor hadn't fallen for Song Sheng's daughter, he would have called Song Sheng father long ago."

"Since we can't defeat the Eight-Faced Buddha, we can only give up the professor. In addition, the professor is getting closer and closer to the Young and Dangerous. Song Sheng feels unsafe, so he can only cut off his tail to survive."

"When the cub grows up, the tigress will drive it away and let it go to a new territory to live independently, so as to avoid fighting."

"Mr. Song once said that the professor was his last disciple. I didn't believe it at first, but now I do. The cunning Mr. Song was forced to kill the professor. The professor is indeed a rare talent."

"If I'm not mistaken, you are not only interested in the professor, but you are also planning to kill Song Sheng! You have a bright future! I'm optimistic about you!"

Teacher Li spoke with saliva flying all over the place, telling the whole story.

I have to say that if Teacher Li continues to teach and educate, he will definitely become a top master of his generation. After all, with his eloquence and infectiousness, if he goes astray and enters the MLM industry, he will also become a gold medal master and a giant of the southern school.

He talked for more than half an hour and I didn’t even get bored. That’s a real skill!
"I'm different from you! We're not the same kind of people!"

Chi Mengli first expressed his position. He did not believe a word the old liar said.

If the Eight-Faced Buddha can escape death this time, he will definitely never set foot in Hong Kong again to avenge his men. Don't be ridiculous, we are not related to each other, we are all fighting for money, don't act like we know each other well.

But after Teacher Li said a lot, there was only one thing that was worth believing, and that was that after the Eight-Faced Buddha got out, he would definitely cut Teacher Li into pieces.

There are micro-carvings on the golden Buddha's arms. These are top secret. Teacher Li has no way of obtaining them without using some extraordinary means.

"Let's work together to kill the Eight-Faced Buddha!"

"If the Eight-Faced Buddha runs away, and Situ Tiangang throws the stuff he bought from you to where he lives, you will be dead, and no one can save you."

"My informant told me that Situ Tiangang will take action at six o'clock in the evening. There is only one hour left."

Teacher Li continued to seduce Chi Mengli, hoping to form an offensive and defensive alliance with this new double-flowered red stick that had appeared in the water room.

Chi Mengli glanced at the wall clock, then at the watch on his wrist, and then fired a shot at the big horse's white thigh.

"puff"

"Hmm."

The big foreign horse that was shot groaned in pain, but his mouth was blocked and he couldn't shout out.

"Teacher Li, your story is very interesting, but I am tired now and want to rest."

"I have accepted your apology gift, you can get out now!"

Chi Mengli once again pointed the black gun in his hand at Teacher Li and ordered him to leave.

Teacher Li was puzzled. He had already revealed his identity vaguely, but the young man in front of him didn't believe him at all. It was outrageous!
Could it be that this loser is suffering from a terminal illness and is determined to die?
Sometimes Teacher Li feels that he is old and has no idea what the young people today are thinking!
But Mr. Li also had his dignity. Since this young man had ordered him to leave, he certainly couldn't continue to sit down. He could only stand up, pick up the top hat on the blue and white porcelain plate and say goodbye: "What a pity, I thought you would be to my taste, but I didn't expect you to be such an arrogant idiot."

"You have already punished my people. Can you please let me take my beauty away and send her to Paris to heal her wounds?"

Chi Mengli nodded, and continued to aim the Beretta 92 pistol in his hand at Teacher Li's head, saying, "Of course, but in exchange, I hope you will leave the Twin Leaf Key, otherwise I will be affected by the Emperor's Qi!"
