Deng Wei clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Jiang is indeed wealthy and powerful. Since Ba Bi is not following the rules, we and Lian Sheng will admit defeat! Tommy, put the money away."

"Alright, Uncle Deng, I owe you a favor." Jiang Tiansheng smiled, said a few polite words, and then stood up and left.

After Jiang Tiansheng and his group left, Deng Wei remained seated and picked up the teacup with toothpicks inside.

"Grandpa!"

Lin Huaiyue was about to snatch it.

Deng Wei refused and gulped it all down.

"boom!"

He slammed the pipe to the ground and then lit it again.

"Grandpa, I, Ah Lok, am willing to risk my life to do things for the gang!"

Lin Huai Le's face flushed red and then turned pale as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Tommy, the dead man was your older brother! You're in charge of this!"

Chuanbao looked at Chen Jialuo.

"Do something? What kind of thing are you going to do!"

Deng Wei slowly opened his mouth, took a puff of his pipe, and continued, "Do you know how many people will die when the two gangs go to war?"

“We, along with Luen Shing and Sun Kee, used to spend one or two million dollars a week on horse racing in Tsim Sha Tsui, including a settlement fee of 50,000 and a running fee of 20,000.”

"We can no longer afford to fight with Lian Sheng."

Chapter 6 Who will be the head of the Yau Ma Tei gang?

"Think things through before you act or speak. It's obvious that the guy surnamed Chiang is going to support Chan Ho-nam. We, the Wo Luen Shing, are not the same Wo Luen Shing we used to be. What do we have to fight against Hung Hing? Chiang Tin-sang can just throw out some money. Can we, the Wo Luen Shing, withstand that?"

At this point, Deng Wei stood up dejectedly.

The two were speechless, unable to refute the statement for a moment.

Although Deng Wei was alone, his voice grew increasingly forceful: "Bang! Ah Le! You two, remember the humiliation you suffered tonight!"

His obese body became more three-dimensional in Chen Jialuo's eyes.

Legend has it that he single-handedly turned the tide, saved the empire from collapse, and brought the Wo Luen Shing back to its status as one of the four major triads in Hong Kong. In later generations, the Wo Luen Shing became the largest triad in Hong Kong. Seeing it today, I can see that its reputation is indeed well-deserved.

If it were any other triad boss, they probably would have already started a war with Hung Hing.

Deng Wei did not do that, but instead taught everyone a lesson.

A lesson concerning the reputation, strength, and survival of a community.

Both Hung Hing and Sun Kee are Teochew gangs. Teochew people are very united. If a war breaks out, Sun Kee will definitely get involved and settle old scores with new ones.

After this battle, it remains to be seen whether the Wo Luen Shing brand can be preserved.

Although the martial arts world is a place where one can freely express gratitude and seek revenge.

But as the person in charge of Wo Luen Shing, Deng Wei was unable to settle scores.

With heavy hearts, everyone returned to the Kwun Tong Cha Kwo Ling Villagers Association.

Deng Wei returned to the main seat and recounted the events leading up to Ba Bi's death, as well as the outcome of the negotiations with Hung Hing.

Holding his teacup, Deng Wei continued, "Hung Hing is willing to offer two million in compensation, which saves face for us and Luen Shing. Let's leave it at that. I know you're all dissatisfied, but don't be, that's the way of the underworld!"

After finishing speaking, he looked around and continued, "The position of Yau Ma Tei Hall Master cannot be left vacant, otherwise it will be easy for someone to step in. Are there any brothers who are willing to take the position of Yau Ma Tei Hall Master?"

After Deng Wei finished speaking, he took a sip of hot tea.

Many of the hall masters in the audience were filled with excitement, each of them eager to fight for a position for their own people. Many of the Wo Shing Wo members also had an expression of ambition on their faces.

Big D, the overlord of Tsuen Wan, glanced at his lead horse, Longhair, who then strode forward.

But just as Long Hair was about to speak, Deng Wei narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Think carefully before you speak. If you take over the position of Yau Ma Tei Hall Master, you have to shoulder Ba Bi's debts."

"What? Grandpa, you're not kidding, are you? That bastard Babi owes Liang Kun twenty million just for that. How are we going to pay that amount?"

No sooner had Deng Wei finished speaking than Brother Fire Bull, the leader of the Kowloon Hall, immediately started shouting.

"Not only does he owe Babi 20 million, but I also heard he owes a lot of money in the gambling dens. Even if we keep filling the gaps, we still won't be able to make up for it!"

Big D's expression changed, and he spread his hands and said loudly.

Deng Wei put down his teacup and said earnestly, "It is only right to pay back debts. In the end, Ba Bi is one of us and Lian Sheng. If Ba Bi is gone, can we just watch his wife and children be forced to their deaths?"

"From the day we and Lian Sheng opened the incense hall to take in Pabi, Pabi was one of us and Lian Sheng's people. What's more, the organization has already accepted the fees Pabi had paid in the past! Now that he's gone, we must ensure the safety of Pabi's family!"

“I have already taken care of his family. Now, whoever wants to take the position of the Yau Ma Tei gang leader must take on the debts that Ba Bi has incurred!”

Deng Wei's tone was forceful and domineering.

The lively villagers' association meeting, which had just been bustling with activity, suddenly fell silent.

Longhair quietly returned to his original position.

Big D also fell silent. It's true that he wanted to fight for a position for Long Hair and increase his own voice, but he was unwilling to take on Babi's debts.

However, he had to admit that his grandfather's words were very insightful and his reasoning was absolutely correct. If something were to happen to them one day, his own family would certainly need someone to take care of them.

That's truly convincing.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Deng Wei looked around and said, "Is there anyone else willing to take the position of Yau Ma Tei Hall Master?"

The place was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. After all, tens of millions in debt could crush a person. Everyone in this business wants to be the boss, but nobody's that stupid.

Deng Wei pressed further, asking, "Is there any hall master willing to take charge of two districts?"

No one answered; nobody's money comes from thin air.

Seeing this, Deng Wei's face showed a look of disappointment and dejection.

Just then, Chen Jialuo stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, I am willing to take on my elder brother Babi's debts! I mean what I say, and if I break my promise, I am willing to accept family punishment!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Countless eyes turned to Chen Jialuo in the crowd, and many people who were familiar with Babi immediately recognized that this handsome young man was Babi's henchman.

Aside from being pretty, she's good for nothing.

Is this person insane?

Incredulous expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

After all, in their view, the issue wasn't whether it was worth it or not, but that it was simply not worth it at all.

"Get back in your place! Do you want to die?!"

Chuanbao glanced at Chen Jialuo, slapped the chair, and shouted.

“I’ve made up my mind, Grandpa, you don’t need to persuade me. Since no one is willing to take on my elder brother’s debts, as Babi’s brother, I have an obligation to take on Babi’s debts!”

Chen Jialuo spoke slowly, word by word.

There are three reasons why we are taking on the debts of Babi.

First, there's the issue of the branch's accounts. He's already embezzled one million from the branch. If Deng Wei sends someone to take over as branch manager and discovers problems with the accounts, he'll be the first one to die.

Secondly, the debts of Babi can be resolved through negotiation, through the exchange of benefits, or through gradual consultation. With the Lian Sheng brand still in place, there is still some prestige left.

Besides, the lion's share is with Brother Kun. Now that the plot of "Young and Dangerous" has already unfolded, Brother Kun won't live for more than a few months.

If all else fails... just deal with the creditors.

Third, both Jiang Tiansheng and Gan Zitai deeply hurt Chen Jialuo's pride today, and at the same time, aroused his competitive spirit.

Chen Jialuo wanted to test his skills against them; otherwise, wouldn't his trip to Hong Kong have been in vain?

Seeing that someone was willing to take on the burden, Deng Wei showed an excited expression and slowly asked, "What's your name?"

This was the second time Deng Wei had asked Chen Jialuo's name, because before this, Chen Jialuo had not even come into his sight.

"Grandpa, my name is Chen Jialuo, but everyone calls me Tommy."

Chen Jialuo did not show any displeasure and answered respectfully.

That's how the underworld works. When you're just a lowly henchman, who remembers your name?

Chapter 7 Who will shoulder Ba Bi's debts!

"Chen Jialuo..."

Deng Wei muttered Chen Jialuo's name, slapped the table excitedly, and said:

"Good! Good name! It's rare to find someone with such courage and loyalty, willing to take on your elder brother's debts!"

"Alright, then you'll be the leader of the Yau Ma Tei gang! Also, since Ba Bi is your older brother, if you have the guts, find a chance to kill Chan Ho Nam, avenge your brother, and become the Yau Ma Tei gang leader honorably!"

"Grandpa will give you a double-flower red pole title when the time comes, and I mean it! If you're going to do it, do it big! Fight your way up, and if you succeed, you'll be rich and powerful! If you lose, don't blame fate!"

"Tommy, if you've thought it through, then kowtow and offer incense to Lord Guan next to you, and ask Lord Guan and the brothers and uncles present to bear witness."
