Jiang Lai flipped through the pages and saw that each dish had both Chinese and English translations, along with color illustrations.
"Three steaks, three jars of caviar, a salt-baked lobster, French-style baked lamb chops, a soup and a fruit salad for each person," Jiang said, closing the menu and handing it to the waiter.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!" The waiter took the menu, bowed to Jiang Lai, and responded respectfully.
"Oh, and by the way, open a bottle of your best red wine!"
"Sir, our best red wine here is Lafite 1787, which costs 380,000. What do you think?" The waiter gave a hint because of the price and looked at Jiang Lai cautiously.
"Oh?" Jiang Lai was a little curious, not expecting that there would be such a legendary red wine here.
"Open a bottle!"
"Are you sure, sir?" The waiter looked at Jiang Lai with some disbelief and asked again to confirm.
"What, do you think I can't afford it?" Jiang Lai knew he meant well, but he was still a little unhappy.
"No...no, I'm sorry, sir, please wait a moment!" The waiter also realized his rudeness.
As the sun sets, the restaurant's transparent glass windows offer a beautiful view of the city.
Overall, it's pretty good.
Chapter 91 Dark Night and Dusk (Two Chapters Combined)
Jiang Lai arrived at the security company early in the morning.
"Ah Lai!" Jiang Lai was in the security company's office when Abu knocked on the door.
"What's wrong?" Jiang looked at him.
“Many job applicants have come downstairs!” Abu’s expression was somewhat unusual.
"Hmm?" Jiang Lai seemed not to quite understand what Abu meant, and looked at him with some confusion.
Since its establishment, Jianglai's security company has received many job applications. Ahua is in charge of business operations, but Abu has always been in charge of selecting security personnel.
Jianglai's security company now has more than 300 official members, not including the suit-wearing thugs.
These people were all personally selected by Abu, and he was also in charge of their training.
Now, ordinary members of Jianglai Security Company undergo physical fitness and combat training every day.
Each person, even unarmed, could easily defeat two or three armed mules.
“Ah Lai, the people who came to apply for the job this time are a bit unusual.” Abu hesitated before speaking.
He continued, "I did a quick interview, and many of them said they were veterans from abroad, and there were both Black and White people among them!"
Upon hearing Abu's words, Jiang Lai realized that the person he had summoned must have arrived.
Jiang Lai did not choose all the characters he summoned this time to be of Asian skin; instead, he mainly chose characters with European and Black appearances.
Jiang Lai nodded: "I understand. I've brought these people here. You don't need to worry about them. Take them to the conference room!"
"Hmm?" Abu looked at Jiang Lai with a puzzled expression, but didn't ask any further questions: "Okay!"
A short while later, Abu led his people upstairs and into the conference room.
“Ah Lai!” Abu gestured to Jiang Lai.
"It's alright, you go ahead and get busy, I'll take care of things here!" Jiang Lai nodded to reassure him.
Seeing Jiang Lai's expression, Abu turned and left, closing the conference room door behind him.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang! My name is Anthony. It's a pleasure to meet you!" One of the summoned figures came to Jiang Lai's side and greeted him respectfully.
"Hello!" Jiang Lai looked at them with satisfaction.
As expected of the world's most elite special forces, even in civilian clothes, each of them exuded calmness and sharpness.
Their eyes were like the surface of a lake in winter, calm and profound; their postures were as straight as pine trees, exuding an indomitable strength.
Anthony and his team totaled eighty people, divided into ten teams of eight.
"Scorpion, bring your men over here!" Jiang Lai dialed Scorpion's number.
Scorpion and the others were upstairs and soon arrived at the conference room.
After the two groups met, they sized each other up and saw reflections of each other in one another.
Jiang Lai plans to reorganize the two teams.
The CAG Delta Force has retained its original squad structure but has been reorganized into two groups of five squads each, with forty members in each group. This allows them to conduct both small-scale special operations and group strikes.
Anthony and Rambo were appointed as team leaders, and each squad also selected a captain, named Twilight.
Dusk is primarily responsible for eliminating and encircling targets, and can also conduct large-scale firepower strikes.
The SAS members were reorganized into three teams of ten people each.
Scorpion, Lone Wolf, and Cobra were chosen as the team leaders, and they were named Dark Night.
Dark Night is primarily responsible for some of the more challenging issues, such as harassment, sabotage, assassination, kidnapping, and hostage rescue.
Dusk and darkness are now Jiang Lai's two trump cards.
After making the arrangements, Jiang Lai asked Scorpion to take Anthony and the others upstairs first.
Immediately afterward, Jiang Lai called Dongdong.
"Boss!"
"How are things going with the negotiations with the abandoned factory?" Jiang Lai asked directly.
"That place had been abandoned for a long time, and no one was willing to invest there, so we took it over very easily!" Dongdong said with a hint of pride when Jiang Lai asked about it.
"Oh? You've already taken it down?" Jiang Lai had only said it casually and hadn't paid much attention to it at the time, but he didn't expect that it had already been taken down.
"Yes, Yingjie should have finished the handover."
Jiang Lai knew that Dongdong was talking about Wang Ying.
"That's good. How's Causeway Bay?" Jiang Lai casually asked.
"It's basically stable, but I recently discovered that someone seems to be selling pills near our premises!" Dongdong's tone was somewhat grave.
"Ok?"
Jiang Lai was somewhat surprised that someone dared to sell pills in his territory.
Hung Hing's main business is operating entertainment venues such as KTVs, bars, and saunas in Hong Kong's bustling areas. They rely on their strong financial backing to collect protection money and do not deal in drugs.
However, there are exceptions. Leveraging Causeway Bay's transportation advantages, Liang Kun launched a large-scale flour business in his own yard.
The reason why people say "Hung Hing" is a fighting brand and "Tung Hing" is actually related to their geographical location.
Dongxing's territory is mostly located by the sea, allowing them to take advantage of natural transportation routes. Their main businesses are smuggling and selling pills.
The "four" in "four-zai" actually refers to heroin.
Jiang was also curious before he came to Hong Kong why there were so many gangs, but Tung Sing and Hung Hing were always at odds and had the most conflicts.
It also involves a matter of interests.
Hung Hing's dens are all located in bustling downtown areas. Tung Sing's people need to distribute drugs, but they can't just sell heroin by the sea. So they need to expand their distribution channels within Hung Hing's territory. However, Chiang Tin-sang is determined to clean up his image and strictly prohibits drugs.
That's why there are so many conflicts in the plot.
When Kwan was in charge, he basically monopolized the drug business in Causeway Bay.
It was difficult for Tung Sing and other gangs to get involved, but ever since Jiang Lai swept up Liang Kun's place, Jiang Lai has not allowed anyone to sell drugs in Causeway Bay.
However, there are quite a few drug addicts in Causeway Bay, and without the support of Leung Kwan's supply, it has become a lucrative market.
That's why it attracted the attention of some people.
"Have you caught them? Do you know whose men they are?"
"No, that kid is slippery. He ran away as soon as he saw our people!" Dongdong said helplessly.
"Arrange for a few people to keep watch around the area. If they spot you again, arrest them immediately!" Jiang Lai said coldly.
"Okay, boss, I'll be careful!"
"Ok!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lai was also thinking about whose side he was working for.
Jiang Lai now suspects that either Liang Kun's remaining men are still secretly selling off their stock, or that Tung Sing's men have their eyes on Causeway Bay, this lucrative market.
It can only be said that interests move people's hearts, and even Jiang Lai could not suppress these people's greedy desires.
Jiang Lai couldn't help but sigh.
He hasn't even arrived in Causeway Bay yet, and people are already eyeing his territory.
After leaving the security company, Jiang returned to his own premises.
"Tell Wang Ying to come to my office!" Jiang Lai instructed the underling at the door.
"Okay, boss!"
After hearing Jiang Lai's instructions, the younger brother turned and left.
"Mr. Jiang, you wanted to see me?" Wang Ying came to Jiang Lai's office.
"Hmm, Dongdong said you've already bought that factory in Da'ao?" Jiang Lai asked directly.
“Yes, Mr. Jiang, all the procedures have been completed, including the factory building and outdoor structures, with a total area of 8,000 square meters, and a total cost of 9.5 million!” Wang Ying explained in detail after hearing Jiang’s question.
The land in Jianglai is located in a remote suburb, and the plot of land is not very large.
Jiang Lai wasn't too clear about the land prices, but he knew that a few years ago, a man surnamed Li bought about 1600 mu of land for 2 million yuan.
In comparison, land values appreciate quite quickly.
"Hmm, well done. Is there any money left in the company account?" Having spent over ten million, Jiang Lai wasn't sure if Wang Ying had any money left, so he asked.
“Yes, Mr. Jiang!” Wang Ying replied.
Jiang Lai never took any of the profits from his establishment. Apart from the money he gave to his underlings and the share he handed over to the authorities, the rest of the money was managed by Wang Ying. He didn't know exactly how much money was involved.
“Okay, if you need more funds, just let me know!” Jiang Lai nodded.
"Oh, right, see if we can get another piece of land near the factory. I plan to build a training ground and a few dormitory buildings!" Jiang Lai thought that An Ye and Huang Hun couldn't stay at the security company forever, so he spoke up.
