A life of success begins with being a landlord.

I comforted Uncle Ding, "Uncle Ding, let's discuss what to do with those goods when I get back tonight with Sister Li. You guys keep working and wait for my news."

I don't want to return those goods.

Tens of thousands of yuan! Who doesn't like money?

After giving a few quick instructions, I hurried to the Golden Dragon Hotel.

While walking, I received phone calls from Dao Zixiong and Nan Batian.

Daozai Xiong urged me to hurry up.

Nan Batian scolded me, asking why I didn't inform him in advance; he had only just found out about tonight's negotiation banquet.

He's here tonight too.

I chuckled. "Senior Brother, Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun are both bosses. What business do we have of theirs? I'm just going over there tonight to freeload. Don't be angry, I'll have a couple more drinks with you when I get there."

"You bastard, don't try to set a trap, or I'll haunt you even in death."

"Stop talking nonsense. Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun are now brothers, even closer than we are." I hung up the phone.

When I arrived at the Golden Dragon Hotel, I found that all of Dao Zai Xiong's people had already arrived, except for Boss Huo.

But the people who were supposed to be mourning Kun had not yet arrived.

I took some time to contact Director Nie and asked him to help me look into Kuai Dafa's whereabouts.

Nie made a phone call to confirm that Kuai Dafa was still in Zhangshutou, and then gave me a contact number: "If you want to find that person, call this number. It's my brother, Lao Lin."

I thanked him and wrote down Lao Lin's number.

Not long after, Dao Zixiong received a phone call saying that Sang Kun had arrived and led me to the door to greet him.

Sang Kun was with three people, including Nan Batian.

Upon meeting, Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun patted each other on the shoulder and exchanged pleasantries, just like good brothers who hadn't seen each other for many years.

I winked at Nan Batian but didn't say anything.

Dao Zaixiong invited the guests into the private room, then they sat down and the wine and dishes were served.

It seems like everyone knows each other, except for the two people that Sang Kun brought.

Dao Zixiong introduced them to me: "This is Mayor Yue and Chief Wu of Hengjie Town, this is Brother Kun, and this is Brother Kun's brother... what's his name again? Oh, Nan Batian!"

I stood up to greet them, nodding to each one.

Unexpectedly, the people on Sang Kun's side were very polite to me.

Nan Batian deliberately made a sarcastic remark: "Wasn't it Ah Qiang by Xiong Ge's side before? Why is it Zu Ge now? Is Zu Ge more powerful? Oh, I remember, I heard Ah Qiang got stabbed!"

A flash of anger crossed Dao Zixiong's face, but he held back and snorted.

Sang Kun slammed his fist on the table: "Anan, stop talking nonsense. Give Xiong Ge some face."

"Thank you for your consideration, Brother Kun."

Dao Zai Xiong's eyes darted around as he looked at Nan Ba ​​Tian: "You asked if A Zu is powerful? I remember now, last time in Sanlichuan, A Zu captured two thugs alive, one of whom looks a lot like you."

The thug I captured alive is none other than Nan Batian. Of course, he looks just like him, practically identical!

But if we keep talking like this, we might end up fighting.

Fortunately, both Nie and Wu smoothed things over, which stopped Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun from making sarcastic remarks to each other.

After a few rounds of drinks, Dao Zai Xiong got down to business.

They were speaking Cantonese, and they spoke very fast; I could only understand half of what they said.

It seems that Dao Zai Xiong's intention is to give Sang Kun 12 million in exchange for him not interfering.

But Sang Kun wanted 30 million and also wanted to get involved in the construction of the building.

The two are very different, and they argued until they were red in the face, but to no avail.

I couldn't get a word in edgewise, nor did I dare to.

Just then, my phone rang; it was Xiao Pei's number.

I realized that Director Song was looking for me, so I went outside to answer the phone.

Sure enough, Director Song's voice came through, asking in a low voice, "Have Dao Zixiong and Sang Kun reached an agreement?"

"No, they're arguing..." I reported the situation.

"Alright, I'll teach you a few words. Take Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun aside and tell them."

Director Song lowered his voice and gave me some instructions.

I heard it clearly, checked it again, and then hung up the phone.

At this moment, Sang Kun stood up and angrily said, "Brother Xiong, this meal is on me, but we'll talk about that matter later."

Nan Batian was clearly prepared. He casually tossed down a 10,000 yuan note and turned to leave.

"Brother Kun, wait a minute!"

I stopped Sang Kun, then looked at Dao Zai Xiong: "Brother Kun, Brother Xiong, could you give me the honor of having a private talk between the three of us?"

Sang Kun frowned at me and asked, "Who called you just now, little brother?"

"He is an elder and also a leader," I said vaguely.

Sang Kun nodded.

Daozai Xiong also stood up and led me and Sang Kun to the private room next door.

Nan Batian was worried and insisted on following along.

"Sorry, Kun and Xiong, Lao Song has a few words for you to pass on." I handed cigarettes to Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun.

"Speak, brother." Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun both nodded.

"Old Song asked me to ask you all, is all this fighting really worth it? It's better to be friends and cooperate than enemies. That way, neither of you will be afraid..."

I spoke slowly and deliberately, following Director Song's instructions: "Everyone can drink from the Yangtze River; there's no end to the money in the world, so why be so calculating?"

Daozai Xiong and Sang Kun both fell silent.

I continued, "Old Song said that when the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer. Last time, Amei was almost killed, and he hasn't pursued that matter yet... but he remembers it."

The last time Ah Man and Ah Mui were attacked, it was also during a fight between Knife Boy Hung and Sang Kun.

Ah Mei was indeed innocent. The assailants at the time didn't even know her. When they saw Ah Mei step forward to stop them, they just casually stabbed her twice.

But those two stabs nearly killed Ah Mei and almost destroyed Director Song's house.

Therefore, Director Song harbored deep hatred for Sang Kun and Dao Zixiong, but due to the current situation, he could only suppress it.

I feel that if given the chance, Director Song will still deal with Sang Kun!

Daozai Xiong sighed and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Sang Kun: "Brother Kun, please give Lao Song some face."

Sang Kun frowned, pondering in silence.

I clasped my hands in greeting and said, "Brother Kun, Brother Xiong, there are some things I don't quite understand and would like to ask you for your guidance."

Sang Kun nodded: "Please speak, brother."

I smiled and said, "I think Lao Song is right. You guys are always on guard against each other, it must be exhausting. All that fighting is a waste of energy. If you cooperated, wouldn't that... be more profitable?"

"Brother, the most profitable thing would be if I ate Dao Zai Xiong."

Sang Kun disagreed with my statement and rolled his eyes at Dao Zai Xiong: "Add a little more, give my brothers a sip of soup, and I'll give Lao Song some face."

Dao Zixiong hesitated for a moment, then spread his five fingers:

"One more slap, five hundred more, but don't mess around with construction projects. This isn't your territory. Even if you take on the project, you won't be able to do it safely. Boss Fok of the Hong Kong government will never use your construction team."

Sang Kun thought for a moment, then gestured and said, "Add six hundred more, making it a total of eighteen hundred. I'll withdraw from all of them and support your work."

"It's a deal!" Dao Zixiong nodded through gritted teeth.

I was amazed; only then did I realize how big the business was on Peninsula Slope.

Sang Kun did nothing but demand 18 million!

How many houses would you have to sell to make that much money?

Sang Kun chuckled and patted my shoulder:

"Brother, from now on, work for me. Don't follow Daozai Xiong anymore. That guy's stingy, you've seen it yourself. Getting him a little money is like cutting off a piece of your own flesh."
