Chapter 74 Can You Protect Me?
Greyhound was overjoyed, trembling with excitement. He quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Chiang Tin-sang: "Thank you for your trust, Mr. Chiang. I will definitely manage North Point well and live up to your expectations!"
In contrast, Dafei looked rather dejected, his eyes filled with disappointment, his hands tightly gripping the hem of his clothes, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Once Greyhound was seated in the North Point Hall Master's seat, Jiang Tiansheng spoke again: "Little sister is right. Merit must be rewarded and demerit must be punished. Dafei has also made a great contribution this time, and he absolutely cannot be treated unfairly."
"I have some good news to share. The Lisboa Casino in Macau recently released the operating rights for five Diamond Rooms, and Hung Hing successfully won two of them through bidding."
Everyone immediately perked up, and excited expressions appeared on their faces.
Diamond rooms are high-stakes gambling halls where millions of dollars come and go. If managed well, earning two or three million a month is a piece of cake. It's a lucrative business.
Jiang Tiansheng walked up to Da Fei, patted him on the shoulder, and said gently, "Those two diamond halls are yours to manage!"
Dafei was overjoyed, his earlier disappointment vanishing instantly. He quickly stood up and exclaimed, "Thank you so much for your guidance, Mr. Jiang! I will definitely manage it well and earn more profits for the gang!"
Being located in Macau, although far from the Hong Kong headquarters, also meant that he had become the "local emperor" of the Macau branch. As long as he managed the Diamond Hall well, he could make a lot of money. The gains were simply enormous!
He secretly rejoiced, thankful that he had followed Ye Tian's instructions and captured Fatty Li together, otherwise he wouldn't have had this good fortune today.
After the meeting at Juyitang concluded, Jiang Tiansheng asked Ye Tian with a smile, "Tian, now that you've become the head of the Causeway Bay branch, when do you plan to hold a banquet to formally announce it?"
Ye Tian thought for a moment and said in a calm tone, "Let's talk about it after Xi B's funeral. It's not appropriate to hold a party now."
Jiang Tiansheng's eyes showed increasing appreciation, and he nodded, saying, "That's for the best. You're steady and thoughtful in your actions."
Upon hearing this, Greyhound and Big Fly had no choice but to postpone their promotion party.
Since the funeral for Little B hasn't been held yet, it's really not appropriate to hold a celebratory banquet, otherwise people will say we don't know the proper etiquette.
Liang Kun walked up to Jiang Tiansheng and said, "Mr. Jiang, I plan to officially appoint my underling, Shanji, to a position. Please approve it."
Ye Tian immediately chimed in, "I don't want to bother two people with the same task. I also have a few underlings who need to be promoted, so we can do it all at once."
Jiang Tiansheng smiled at his sixth uncle, who was sitting in the corner of the auditorium, and said, "Sixth Uncle, I would like to trouble you to witness this in person."
Uncle Liu grinned, stood up, and said, "This is what I do, it's no trouble at all."
So the group came to the open space below the Hall of Righteousness, where Uncle Six witnessed the ceremony to inaugurate the younger brothers.
Liang Kun's underling, Shan Ji, and Ye Tian's underlings, Lin Fu and Luo Tianhong, all three of them accepted the military service.
As for Wu Zhaonan, he had already been officially employed, but Liang Kun had always used him as a bodyguard and had not allowed him to participate in the specific affairs of the gang.
Under the guidance of Uncle Liu, the ceremony of becoming a "red stick" (a symbol of official appointment) was successfully completed! Shanji and Luo Tianhong both became "red sticks" (officials of the Red Stick), while Lin Fu became a "straw sandal" (officials of the Straw Sandal).
Luo Tianhong looked at Lin Fu with some surprise, her tone tinged with confusion: "Brother Fu, you're clearly a better fighter than me, much more skilled. How come you ended up as a lowly laborer?"
Lin Fu smiled and said casually, "Isn't it common sense that straw sandals are more effective than red sticks?"
Luo Tianhong was speechless for a moment, then rolled her eyes and said, "Whose common sense is this? I've never heard of it before!"
Lin Fu pointed to Ye Tian beside him and said with a smile, "It's common sense in Brother Tian's family."
"What, you have a problem with that?"
Luo Tianhong quickly shook his head, his tone filled with a hint of awe: "No, no objection. Whatever Brother Fu says goes."
How could he dare to object? He had personally witnessed Lin Fu's skills; he was no match for him at all, not to mention that Brother Tian was there to keep him in check.
Handsome Kun patted Chicken on the shoulder, his tone filled with expectation: "You rascal, from now on you'll be my leader. With Ah Tin as your role model, don't let me down. Do a good job, and I won't treat you unfairly."
Chicken was startled and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Boss, how dare I compare to Brother Tian? Brother Tian is a born boss, I'm just an ordinary little brother. Your expectations are too high, I'm afraid I can't reach them."
Liang Kun glared at him, annoyed. "You good-for-nothing! You're so young, you should have some ambition. How can you be so self-deprecating?"
Chicken spoke frankly: "Boss, I think that when you're out in the game, making money is the most important thing. As long as you can make money, that's better than anything else."
If Chicken had stayed with Chan Ho-nam and worked under Sai B, he would have been incredibly ambitious and single-mindedly focused on climbing the ranks by killing people and making a name for himself.
However, after only one day with Liang Kun, what he witnessed completely irritated Chicken.
As one of the twelve leaders of Hung Hing, Little B's death not only failed to provoke the triad's full revenge, but instead allowed the triad to maximize its profits from his death, which greatly shocked him.
It turns out that the upper echelons of the gang only care about interests and not about brotherhood. The so-called "brotherhood" is just a slogan used to fool the lower-level members.
The pheasant was badly injured, and it made him realize the truth.
Looking back on those days of fooling around with Chan Ho-nam and the others, it was truly a foolish and naive time.
It was Liang Kun who treated him well. On the very first day he took him in as a subordinate, he told him the most practical truth: "When you're in this business, making money is the most important thing. Just listen to all that other nonsense and don't take it seriously."
At the time, Chicken thought that Brother Kun had been hurt badly, which was why he had such thoughts.
But after the negotiations between Hung Hing and Tung Sing, Chicken finally understood! What Brother Kun told him was the truest truth of the underworld!
Once he understood this, he wanted to rise to power even more.
Anyone who wants to be a low-level thug can become one; frankly, they're all cannon fodder.
Those big shots brainwashed them with "loyalty and righteousness," making a bunch of brainwashed gangsters scream and go to kill people, or get killed themselves. It was really stupid.
Thinking back to his innocent days, Chicken felt utterly ashamed.
Liang Kun saw through Shan Ji's thoughts at a glance, vigorously ruffled his hair, making it a mess, and said in a gentle tone: "This world is not as wonderful as you imagine, but it is not as bad as you imagine either."
"I'll say it again: as long as you don't betray me and follow me loyally, I will definitely make you rich and powerful, and I won't let you follow me for nothing."
Pheasant nodded firmly, his eyes resolute, and said, "Thank you, boss. I will definitely follow you closely!"
Young Kun turned to Ye Tian and asked, "When are you planning to go to Causeway Bay to clean up the mess? Little B just died, and the situation in Causeway Bay might be a bit unstable."
Ye Tian rolled his eyes, his tone laced with disdain: "Who would dare cause trouble for Causeway Bay at this time?"
"Is that Situ Haonan from Tung Sing?"
"Even if you gave him two lives, he wouldn't dare!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard that.
Situ Haonan couldn't even last a single move against Ye Tian, and was utterly defeated. Even now, thinking about it still shocks him.
The reputation of the Five Tigers of Tung Sing is not just empty talk; it was earned through real battles, and their strength should not be underestimated.
The Crown Prince had fought with the other members of the Five Tigers of Dongxing many times before, and knew how powerful they were. He knew that it would not be easy to defeat them.
Without the support of Lin Fu and others, it would have been very difficult to gain a foothold in Causeway Bay.
No one expected Ye Tian to be so powerful. Situ Haonan probably dreams about Ye Tian all the time, and it has left a shadow in his heart.
Pheasant asked curiously, "Brother Tian, you're so skilled, why do we rarely see you in action?"
Ye Tian gave him a speechless look: "Isn't there Xiao Fu too?"
"If you want to challenge me, you'll have to get past Xiao Fu first. You can't even beat Xiao Fu, yet you dare to challenge me?"
Chicken suddenly realized his mistake, thinking to himself that he had been a fool. What kind of boss would act so casually? A boss naturally has his underlings to fight for him.
Luo Tianhong quickly corrected him, "If you want to challenge the boss in the future, you'll have to get past me first! I'll protect the boss!"
Ye Tian sighed, his tone somewhat perfunctory: "Then good luck. Haven't you always wanted to be the best in the world? You need to hurry up and beat Xiao Fu, otherwise how will you protect me?"
