Fifteen minutes later, Bai Mao and Gui Linzai arrived at Ren Jiu's office and called out, "Boss."

Ren Jiu got straight to the point: "Guilin, you'll go to the North District to promote Qiangwei Beer. Ah Huai, you'll go to the East District to promote it."

As always, I don't want other brands of alcohol on my turf.

As for how to promote it, Guilinzi and Baimao already had a well-established method.

White Hair nodded: "No problem, boss. If anyone dares to buy other drinks, I'll smash their stall from now on."

Guilin Boy said in a relaxed tone with a smile, "Boss, I'll take care of it right away."

The two of them were also aware of the profits in the liquor business, but because they had been short-sighted as mules before, they didn't think that opening a brewery would be very profitable.

But after Ren Jiu revealed the profit margins of alcoholic beverages to them, they realized that opening a brewery could indeed make a lot of money, with a monthly profit of 500 million.

They've already secured the other two districts. Once they've finished promoting them, they'll be able to earn 1500 million a month. The richer the boss is, the more comfortable his underlings will live.

Moreover, for them, promoting Qiangwei beer is not difficult. If they encounter someone who is sensible, they don't need to put in any effort. If someone is not sensible, they can simply smash up his stall and stop him from doing business. After a few days, he will naturally beg for mercy.

They use both soft and hard tactics, since fighting and killing people isn't difficult for them, let alone selling goods.

After giving his instructions, Ren Jiu told them to start promoting Qiangwei Beer as soon as possible. He believed that in a few days, only his Qiangwei Beer would be sold in the North and East districts of Taipei.

He now controls three districts, and his monthly liquor business alone will generate 1500 million in profit. For Ren Jiu, money gives him confidence and a stronger backbone.

He now has three districts under his control. After paying protection fees and deducting the fees paid to the triads, Ren Jiu's net profit is over 900 million. It's time to expand his manpower.

After all, he only had a little over 1000 men under his command. If they were scattered across three districts, he wouldn't have many followers.

After Bai Mao and Guilinzi left, Ren Jiu lit a cigar and puffed out smoke.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

Ren Jiu flicked his cigarette ash and said, "Come in."

Rat Ming pushed open the door and entered, a lewd smile on his face. Upon seeing Ren Jiu, he chuckled and then said:

"Boss, I've found something good."

Seeing the mysterious look on Mouse Ming's face and hearing his words, Xiao Mei became curious, wondering what good things Mouse Ming might have.

At this point, Lao Shuming stopped being mysterious and took out a voice recorder from his suit, handing it to Ren Jiu and saying:

"Boss, the content here is absolutely explosive."

Upon hearing this, Ren Jiu couldn't help but laugh and curse, "Damn it, so mysterious."

Ren Jiu then turned on the recorder, which played a conversation between Liu Jian and Deputy Director Gao. The two were discussing how to sell "Number Four" and how to cooperate to make a lot of money.

Ren Jiu had seen the movie and knew Deputy Director Gao. He was deeply impressed by the man, who was the real mastermind behind the scenes. He had also planted spies around Liu Jian. Xiao Bianzi A Biao was one of the people he had bought off, keeping an eye on Liu Jian's every move.

Deputy Director Gao is the real power behind the scenes. Otherwise, Liu Jian would not have been able to rise to prominence and develop his power in such a short time. Deputy Director Gao is Liu Jian's protector.

Clearly, Liu Jian deliberately left this recording to leave evidence against Deputy Director Gao.

However, if this conversation were to leak out, a major upheaval would occur in the Taipei City government, and Deputy Director Kao would inevitably meet a bad end.

A glint of light flashed in Ren Jiu's eyes. No wonder the rat made it clear that it was explosive news; they really had something on Deputy Director Gao.

However, Ren Jiu did not intend to make it public. He then instructed Lao Shuming, "Go and find out about this Deputy Director Gao. I want to meet with him."

After all, this Deputy Director Gao is the deputy director of the Taipei City Police Department, a position of great power and influence. Ren Jiu had certainly heard of his reputation, but had never met him in person.

Moreover, Ren Jiu also eliminated Liu Jian, whom he had supported. Deputy Director Gao might cause him trouble, so he would have to meet with the real boss behind the scenes.

Rat Ming nodded, a wicked smile spreading across his face. He figured these people above weren't much cleaner than they were; Liu Jian was just being pushed out as a target for making money.

"No problem, boss."

Ren Jiu thought for a moment, paused, and said, "After that, you need to recruit another 2000 men. Now that we've taken over three districts in Taipei, we don't have enough manpower."

If Ren Jiu wants to completely control the three districts, he needs at least three or four thousand men to manage such a large territory. Otherwise, he will suffer from having too few men if attacked by other forces.

Mouse Ming smiled and said, "No problem, boss, I'll arrange it right away."

Now that Ren Jiu is rich and powerful, he has made a name for himself in the underworld. It is not difficult for him to recruit followers. Moreover, Ren Jiu destroyed the powerful Jianhehui, which was at the height of its fame. He has no trouble finding followers.

They have such a large territory in three districts of Taipei City, so they really should recruit some underlings. Otherwise, with only a little over 1000 people under their command, and 400 people in each district after they expand, it's simply not enough.

P.S.: Please give me some review votes, thank you for your support!

Chapter Twenty-Three: Deputy Director Gao: Society Needs Long-Term Stability and Security (First Update)

Located in the Xinlu Tea House in Taipei's North District, this tea house is a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle. Although situated on a busy street, the atmosphere inside is quite peaceful, making it a perfect place to enjoy tea and chat.

In a corner of the teahouse, Deputy Director Gao was sitting and sipping tea by himself, though his brow was slightly furrowed.

He was shocked that the Jianhehui's influence was wiped out by the Sanlian Gang in just one or two days.

The main reason Jianhe Group supported him was to help him make money. After all, his status was special, and naturally, he needed a pawn to help him make money. But who knew that he would be eliminated so soon after being supported? He could only curse inwardly.

"Liu Jian is a complete waste."

Just then, a convoy of Mercedes-Benz vans pulled up in front of the teahouse, and several burly men in black suits got out of the vehicles.

After Ren Jiu got out of one of the Mercedes-Benz vans, he brought Lao Shuming to see Deputy Director Gao.

After entering the teahouse, Ren Jiu glanced around and saw Deputy Director Gao sitting in a secluded corner. He waved his hand and instructed Lao Shuming:

"Clearance."

Mouse Ming nodded: "Yes, boss."

After saying this, Rat Ming led his henchmen to clear out the people and make sure that no one else left. The teahouse owner didn't dare to say anything, since the North District was already Ren Jiu's territory.

Ren Jiu then sat down in front of Deputy Director Gao and slowly said, "Deputy Director Gao, let me introduce myself. I am Ren Jiu from the Sanlian Gang."

Deputy Director Gao frowned, staring at Ren Jiu: "I know you. What do you want?"

Deputy Director Gao looked at Ren Jiu with some confusion, wondering why Ren Jiu had come to him on his own initiative.

Deputy Director Gao did not expect that Ren Jiu would know about his relationship with Liu Jian, because his relationship with Liu Jian was a secret one that outsiders could not possibly know.

Ren Jiu didn't waste any words. He suddenly took out a recorder and played the audio in front of everyone. It was a conversation between Deputy Director Gao and Liu Jian. Deputy Director Gao's face changed, turning so gloomy it was almost dripping with water. He then said in a cold voice:

"That's enough, what do you want to do?"

Deputy Director Gao truly hadn't expected Liu Jian to have left him evidence. How dare he!?

Deputy Director Gao looked at Ren Jiu, his previous composure gone, staring intently at the recording pen. He knew that if this news leaked out, his political career would likely be over.

Ren Jiu smiled and said, "Deputy Director Gao, I would like to cooperate with you."

Upon hearing this proposal, Deputy Director Gao paused for a moment, then asked, "How do you plan to cooperate?"

Ren Jiu fiddled with the voice recorder in his hand: "Liu Jian is too crazy. All he thinks about is fighting and killing."

Society needs long-term stability and security; cooperating with him is not a good partnership.

Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Gao agreed with Ren Jiu's words. Liu Jian was indeed too crazy. Not only did he open a pharmacy, but he also shot and killed his opponent in the street. He was lawless. What he had always advocated was long-term social stability. Making money was fine, but it had to be for the sake of long-term stability.

Otherwise, if he's constantly fighting and killing, where will he put his face?

Ren Jiu paused again at this point: "What I want to cooperate with you on is the smuggling business. I have now taken over the entire smuggling business of Jiande Group."

Later, I'll take over the entire city of Taipei and expand my smuggling business. I'll make just as much money as the fourth operative, and it won't be as dangerous.

Smuggling is extremely profitable. In those days, customs wasn't very strict. The reason Ren Jiu came to cooperate with Deputy Director Gao was because he had secured the smuggling business of Jiande Group.

The fact that the Jiande Group was able to openly smuggle goods at the Taipei docks was also due to the connections that Deputy Director Gao had made, which is why it went so smoothly.

It's unlikely that Ren Jiu will continue smuggling; he'll definitely need to cooperate with Deputy Director Gao. However, he has no interest in the "Number Four" thing.

Deputy Director Gao nodded and looked at Ren Jiu. Liu Jian had already disappointed him too much. He didn't mind cooperating with Ren Jiu, but looking at the recorder on the table, he made a request:

"I can cooperate, but you have to hand over the recording pen to me."

This recording pen was his leverage, and Deputy Director Gao never expected that Liu Jian, that bastard, would cause him so much trouble even after his death.

Ren Jiu looked at the voice recorder but shook his head: "Deputy Director Gao, even if I give you the voice recorder, you can't guarantee that I have other backups, right?"

Ren Jiu stared at Deputy Director Gao, naturally not handing over the recording pen in his hand. He was here to cooperate this time, and it would be best if Deputy Director Gao was willing to cooperate, but if he was not willing, he would have to coerce him to cooperate. After all, he wanted to get involved in the smuggling business, so how could he hand over the recording pen as evidence to Deputy Director Gao?

Deputy Director Gao's face was somewhat cold, but he quickly realized the cause and effect. What he feared was that Ren Jiu would hand over the recording pen, and Ren Jiu's words clearly contained a hidden threat.

He also needed a partner to help him make money, so he had no choice but to agree: "Then I hope we can have a pleasant working relationship."

Deputy Director Gao only wanted to make money and didn't want to cause any other trouble. He also had no interest in the fighting and killing in the underworld. As long as Ren Jiu made money for him, they could establish a cooperation.

Ren Jiu smiled and said confidently, "I will be a better partner than Liu Jian."

After saying that, Ren Jiu pointed directly at the rat Ming next to him and slowly said, "I also got number four guys worth 5000 million US dollars from Liu Jian, but these number four guys are of no use to me."

“Deputy Director Gao can hand over the reins to my subordinate, Rat Ming. I will give you the $5000 million Number Four. That will be another major achievement for you.”

Ren Jiu has no interest in number four: "And I won't touch number four, you can rest assured."

Deputy Director Gao nodded, not expecting Ren Jiu to be so sincere. If he could seize the $5000 million worth of "Number Four", it would be very beneficial to his political future.

It must be said that Ren Jiu is indeed much smarter than Liu Jian.

Ren Jiu picked up his teacup and toasted Deputy Director Gao, saying, "I wish us a pleasant cooperation, Deputy Director Gao."

Deputy Director Gao also picked up his teacup and clinked it against Ren Jiu's: "It's a pleasure working with you."
