Chapter 73: What is Shamelessness?
Camel quickly spoke up:
"Lui Yiu-Yeung's life needs to be redeemed?"
"What kind of logic is that?"
Lin Feng said menacingly:
"A life for a life, debts must be paid. Isn't that natural and right?"
"Ah B is so important, and it was Lui Yiu-Yeung who buried his whole family alive."
"If you don't protect him, that's fine. We'll handle things ourselves."
"How about it?"
Camel immediately fell silent.
Lui Yiu-Yeung is one of the Five Tigers; it's impossible not to protect him.
Uncle Ben lit a cigar and frowned slightly.
He knew this negotiation would be difficult, but he hadn't expected it to be this difficult.
Actually, everyone in Tung Sing had prepared themselves mentally for this negotiation.
Communication between the two sides had always been smooth.
After all, Ba Bi's first seven days hadn't even passed yet. They had already communicated once because of him, and this was just another round.
However, during the actual communication, they suddenly realized it was completely different.
Hung Hing's White Paper Fan is Chan Yiu. Even when Chan Yiu came to negotiate last time, it wasn't as tough as Lin Feng.
He truly lives up to his reputation as one of Hung Hing's most famous Straw Sandals.
It's a good thing Chiang Tin-Sung didn't send him last time, otherwise, it's really hard to say if they would have secured the Golden Triangle route.
Uncle Ben is not only an elder of Tung Sing but also its main financier. He had a vague feeling that the Triad would have to bleed heavily this time.
Lui Yiu-Yeung definitely had to be protected; that wasn't even a question. The Five Tigers were Tung Sing's signboard. If the signboard was gone, how would they do business in the future?
The tricky part was Ah B's compensation.
That was the most troublesome aspect.
Uncle Ben discreetly watched Lin Feng:
"How come I didn't notice this kid before?"
"It looks like I'll have to pay close attention to him from now on."
Camel said in a muffled voice:
"Everyone's time is precious. Please state your demands as soon as possible."
Lin Feng clapped his hands:
"Straightforward, Chairman Camel truly lives up to his reputation as an elder."
"Our demands are very simple."
"Ah B's funeral must be held grandly. We want to give him a glorious burial."
Ng Chi-Wai said with a fake smile,
"That's your business."
Lin Feng wagged his finger:
"Wrong, it's not just our business, it's also your business."
"All expenses for Ah B's funeral, you pay!"
What?
Camel was furious:
"This is too much."
Lin Feng said with a cold face:
"Not making Lui Yiu-Yeung pay with his life is already us being merciful!"
Uncle Ben slightly tugged on Camel's arm,
Camel swallowed his anger:
"Fine, we agree."
"Anything else?"
Lin Feng smiled:
"The money for investigating Ah B's case this time, doubled, you pay."
Camel slammed the table and stood up:
"What do you take Tung Sing for? You want us to reimburse you?"
Lin Feng immediately retorted:
"This money should be paid by the murderer."
"When I was investigating, I never thought that the one who killed our Ah B would actually be your Tung Sing."
"Isn't it only right and proper that debts are paid and murderers pay with their lives?"
"When everyone offers incense to Lord Guan, aren't they praying for this most basic fairness?"
"How come when it comes to you, it changes?"
Camel was speechless instantly.
Uncle Ben looked at Lin Feng strangely. He had a feeling that the guy in front of him was definitely not an uneducated young man; he was very much like the college students in his company.
In terms of debate alone, Camel was definitely no match for this kid.
Even if everyone from Tung Sing joined in, they would be no match for Lin Feng.
"Fine, we agree to that too."
Camel said angrily:
"Ah Bun, paying them double the investigation fees is enough, why double?"
Uncle Ben was about to answer, but Lin Feng spoke before him,
"Chairman Camel, do you think we only paid a little bit of money?"
"Ah B was a Hung Hing hall master."
"His entire family was wiped out."
"The Triad was in a state of panic, and everyone put down what they were doing to investigate the cause of Ah B's death."
"Don't these delayed businesses cost money?"
"Doesn't the psychological blow to my Hung Hing brothers cost money?"
"Doesn't the suffering endured by the bosses who rely on my Hung Hing cost money?"
Ng Chi-Wai cursed:
"How can you be even more shameless than me?"
"Everyone in Hung Hing was busy because of your reward bounty."
Lin Feng looked at him contemptuously,
"Nonsense!"
"My Hung Hing is righteous and noble; we wouldn't stoop for such petty cash."
"Early this morning, all the hall masters and high-ranking officials went up the mountain to see Ah B off."
"If it were for petty cash, wouldn't sleeping at home be more comfortable?"
"You are slandering Hung Hing's reputation, you should be punished!"
"I suddenly feel that doubling the twenty-five million is still not enough."
Ng Chi-Wai was so angry that his hands trembled. He had never seen such a shameless person, clearly after money, yet speaking with such righteousness?
"I really need to remember this so I can use it to infuriate other Triads during negotiations next time."
Camel was also fuming.
Uncle Ben still pulled him, but Camel couldn't take it anymore:
"Ah Bun, you can't let them make exorbitant demands..."
Camel's heart ached,
Good heavens, with just one mouth, tens of millions were gone.
How much powder would they have to move to earn that back?
Uncle Ben was Tung Sing's main financier and an elder. Camel usually respected him greatly, but at this moment, he really didn't want to give him face.
"Dragon Head, we are a large Triad; making money is our priority."
"Right now, we are in the wrong... let's just accept it."
Camel gritted his teeth, then finally nodded dejectedly.
There was no way around it; they, Tung Sing, had to acknowledge what Lui Yiu-Yeung had done.
Ultimately, being in a Triad isn't about fighting and killing; everything is business.
Losing tens of millions was certainly painful, but compared to the entire large Triad, it was nothing.
Camel gritted his teeth and said:
"Fine, we agree. This should be enough, right?"
Lin Feng said matter-of-factly:
"You are in the wrong, so you definitely have to agree."
"Now that the money issue is settled, let's talk about the territory."
Everyone from Tung Sing was furious:
"What, you still want compensation?"
Lin Feng sneered:
"Why did Lui Yiu-Yeung kill Ah B?"
"Isn't it because Causeway Bay's position is important?"
"You've been coveting Causeway Bay for more than a day or two, haven't you?"
"Are you thinking that without Ah B in Causeway Bay, you can just swallow it up?"
"Let me tell you, dream on!"
"Ah B cannot die in vain. Your Tung Sing enclaves in Causeway Bay must be handed over."
"If you agree to this condition, I have no other conditions."
Camel was the first to stand up, angrily saying:
"Lin Feng, you are going too far."
Lin Feng looked at him strangely,
"You invited Uncle Deng as a mediator. Are you saying this in front of Uncle Deng means the negotiations are off?"
Uncle Deng quickly said:
"I'm just a decoration. You can talk or fight, whatever you want."
Anyway, he had taken the mediator's fee, so they could mess around as much as they wanted; it wasn't his Wo Luen Shing that was having problems.
Szeto Ho-Nam suddenly lunged at Lin Feng:
"You want me to hand over Causeway Bay? No way!"
***
Chapter 74: Ferocious Tiger Unleashed
"Want to fight?"
Lin Feng suddenly let out a strange cry. Facing Szeto Ho-Nam's attack, he didn't retreat but advanced, stepping into Szeto Ho-Nam's centerline with a bow stance.
Baji Fist had already integrated into him.
With two hands, he hooked and embraced, already entangling his opponent.
Lin Feng's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold glint. He slapped with one hand—Ferocious Tiger's Hard Climb.
Thud!
Szeto Ho-Nam fell to the ground.
Lin Feng calmly placed his foot on Szeto Ho-Nam's back.
"Want to fight?"
Although this text describes a long period, the event happened in a flash of lightning.
Everyone had just reacted—the Triad leaders on both sides had just stood up. Li Fu had arranged for Mo Chiu-Nam, Lok Tin-hung, and Chicken to just walk over to Liang Kun.
On the other side, Camel, Uncle Ben, and Ng Chi-Wai had only just stood up and hadn't yet assumed a fighting stance.
As for Uncle Deng, he had merely picked up his teacup and hadn't even taken a sip.
For a moment, everyone was stunned!
What the hell happened?
Weren't they going to fight?
How did Szeto Ho-Nam end up on the ground?
Everyone was completely confused.
Lin Feng spat fiercely:
"So you're the one they call Qing Long Hu?"
"How dare you have 'Tiger' in your nickname?"
"Disgraceful!"
Lin Feng kicked, and Szeto Ho-Nam's body flew up, crashing into Ng Chi-Wai.
Thud!
Ng Chi-Wai was violently knocked to the ground.
Lin Feng leisurely walked up to Camel and asked coldly:
"Are you Tung Sing going to fight us Hung Hing?"
Riding on the momentum of taking down Szeto Ho-Nam, Lin Feng's aura was overwhelming.
"Then let's fight!"
"Didn't you say Sai B's status isn't good with us?"
"Let's see if we dare to start a Triad war with you over Sai B."
"Nobody needs to do business anymore. Let the police investigate our two Triads every day."
"Let's see if it's you Tung Sing who can't hold out, or us Hung Hing who can't hold out."
Chan Yiu was anxious. Is this what you should be saying?
Do you know how many storms a Triad war will cause?
Do you know how much business will be lost in one day of war?
Just as Chan Yiu was about to speak, Chiang Tin-Sung forcefully pulled him back.
"Mr. Chiang?"
Chan Yiu was utterly puzzled. If a Triad war broke out between the two sides, shouldn't Mr. Chiang be the most anxious?
Chiang Tin-Sung glared at him ferociously:
"Shut up!"
Chan Yiu was startled.
Chiang Tin-Sung said in a quick, very low voice:
"Tung Sing deals in drugs."
Chan Yiu was confused. Of course, Tung Sing deals in drugs. Everyone says Hung Hing fights, Tung Sing deals in drugs... Suddenly, he realized, wishing he could slap himself a few times.
Stupid!
So damn stupid!
I almost forgot that Tung Sing deals in drugs.
If a major conflict erupted between the two Triads, the police would definitely keep a close eye on them.
The businesses of both Triads would certainly be affected.
There's no doubt about that.
However, there's also no doubt about who would suffer a greater impact.
Hung Hing, at least, has many legitimate industries. The affected ones would be mostly grey industries. Although the impact would be significant, they could endure it.
Tung Sing, on the other hand, was completely different.
They deal in drugs.
Those drug addicts couldn't endure without their fix.
If the police started watching them closely, Tung Sing's core business would suffer a severe blow. One or two days would be fine, but if it lasted a month, they would disintegrate even without Hung Hing fighting them!
Did they have the qualifications to fight Hung Hing?
It was precisely because Lin Feng saw this point that he was fearless.
Fight us? Do you dare?
Camel and Uncle Ben, pressured by his aura, actually took a big step back.
Lin Feng said grimly:
"Hung Hing and Tung Sing are both famous Triads in the underworld. We have always had connections with you."
"Last time with Ba Bi, we certainly bled a lot."
"Right, Mr. Chiang?"
Chiang Tin-Sung said loudly:
"That's right, last time Uncle Deng was still the middleman."
"Because of Ba Bi's matter, we Hung Hing provided you with two exclusive routes to the Golden Triangle, and also connected you with the Golden Triangle."
"That's enough sincerity, isn't it?"
Lin Feng immediately said:
"We respect our traditional friendship with Tung Sing. Even though Sai B is an important member of our Hung Hing, we are willing to put aside our enmity to maintain this friendship."
"Uncle Deng is here, and we have already confirmed many common points."
"Sai B's importance to my Hung Hing is beyond doubt."
"You also understand this point."
"If negotiations fail, you actually want to fight on the spot?"
"Uncle Deng doesn't mind..."
Uncle Deng said, seizing the opportunity:
"I don't mind."
Lin Feng sneered:
"My Hung Hing minds."
"We gave you face; that's our Hung Hing's politeness."
"Actually, it wouldn't be a big deal even if you reneged, because it's normal for negotiations to fall through."
"But, you dare to fight here?"
"Do you have the confidence to keep our Hung Hing here?"
"If you want to fight, I'll fight you!"
Lin Feng stretched his arms.
His fists made crackling, eerie sounds.
Lin Feng said expressionlessly:
"I hate this kind of unskilled fighting the most, but if you want to fight, I'll accompany you."
"With you bunch of weaklings, what do I have to fear even if you all come at once?"
"Want to fight? Come on!"
Looking at Szeto Ho-Nam lying on the ground, the Tung Sing members exchanged glances, their aura instantly diminished by a third.
If time were to rewind twenty years, Camel and Uncle Ben would have fought Lin Feng without a second thought.
But now is not twenty years ago.
Among the Tung Sing members who came here to negotiate, Szeto Ho-Nam had the highest martial prowess.
Yet Qing Long Hu couldn't even last a single exchange with Lin Feng, directly playing dead. Who among the remaining people was his match?
Camel and Uncle Ben exchanged glances, secretly cursing.
Szeto Ho-Nam fighting wasn't a real fight; it was purely a negotiation tactic.
If I'm not satisfied with your price, we'll have a little fight and make a fuss, then renegotiate and take the opportunity to lower the price.
This is called asking for the sky and settling for the ground.
Isn't that the usual routine?
Who would have thought such a situation would occur?
Szeto Ho-Nam couldn't even last a single exchange against Lin Feng. Who the hell would believe that?
You were promoted as a Straw Sandal, not a Red Pole, hey!
This ferocity, it's even more Red Pole than a Red Pole.
No wonder Lin Feng's nickname is Tiger of Mong Kok and not something else.
This guy's momentum is indeed like a tiger.
Uncle Ben secretly complained to Camel, 'We had already agreed, but you just had to make it difficult.'
'You wanted to show off in front of the Hung Hing members, and now even your ass is exposed, right?'
Qing Long Hu really disgraced them all.
Uncle Ben chuckled dryly:
"Ah Feng, it's a misunderstanding."
"Szeto Ho-Nam has a hot temper, don't mind him."
"Honestly, we can compensate you more money, but the Causeway Bay territory is out of the question."
Camel remained silent, implicitly agreeing.
Lin Feng looked at Chiang Tin-Sung:
"Mr. Chiang?"
Chiang Tin-Sung was also not a good person:
"Just agree to the previous conditions."
"Your Causeway Bay leader is Szeto Ho-Nam, right?"
"If it's him, it doesn't matter whether you give it or not."
Camel and Uncle Ben's faces were as ugly as could be.
***
Chapter 75: Hung Hing Conference, Causeway Bay Hall Master
Hung Hing Ancestral Temple, Hall of Brotherhood.
Chiang Tin-Sung called an emergency meeting.
"Early this morning, something extremely egregious happened to our Hung Hing."
"Sai B's entire family was wiped out."
"Everyone already knows about this matter."
"Lin Feng, the Straw Sandal from Mong Kok, spent twenty-five million and finally found the culprits."
Sister Thirteen raised her hand and said:
"Mr. Chiang, who are the culprits?"
Chiang Tin-Sung said expressionlessly:
"There are two culprits: one is Fatty Lai, the North Point Hall Master, and the other is Lui Yiu-Yeung from Tung Sing."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Hon Ban and Sister Thirteen exchanged glances; it was just as they had expected.
Chiang Tin-Sung clapped his hands and said:
"Fatty Lai has already been dealt with according to family law. The ones who sent him on his way were Dai Fei and Greyhound, the two Big Brothers from North Point."
"These two also personally dug up the evidence of Fatty Lai's communication with Tung Sing Yiu Yeung."
Sister Thirteen asked:
"What about Tung Sing Yiu Yeung?"
Chiang Tin-Sung sighed:
"Tung Sing paid a hefty price to bail him out."
Everyone looked at each other, none showing any surprise.
For a Triad, grievances and grudges are put aside; making money comes first.
Sai B was dead, and he didn't even have an heir, not even a victim's family. If there was spare capacity, revenge could naturally be sought for him.
However, if seeking revenge for him affected making money, that was unacceptable.
The Hall Masters clearly understood the priorities.
No one said that Chiang Tin-Sung's handling was incorrect.
Chiang Tin-Sung said;
"Sai B will have a grand funeral, and Tung Sing will cover the funeral expenses."
"The Tung Sing branch in Kowloon City, they compensated us with it."
"The Tsim Sha Tsui branch, they also compensated us with it."
"The money Ah Feng spent was also compensated to us."
"And the territory controlled by Lui Yiu-Yeung in North Point, they gave us one street."
The Hall Masters were quite surprised.
Sister Thirteen exclaimed in surprise:
"Is this fake?"
"These places are all lucrative areas. Tung Sing's guys just gave them up like that?"
Chiang Tin-Sung laughed heartily:
"You didn't see the expressions on Camel and Ah Bun's faces at the time; it was absolutely hilarious."
Sister Thirteen said, stunned:
"Was it really Camel who personally made the decision?"
Liang Kun smirked:
"Camel wanted to make a fuss to drive down the price."
"He just didn't expect to mess up."
Sister Thirteen immediately became interested:
"Liang Kun, hurry up and tell us."
Liang Kun chuckled:
"Let me tell you, it was quite interesting..."
He really did recount the whole incident.
The Hall Masters listened and cheered loudly.
Chiang Tin-Sung didn't stop them at all. Such gossip was a good way to boost his own prestige and dampen others' morale, so he saw no reason to intervene.
Sister Thirteen gave a thumbs up to Lin Feng, who was sitting behind Liang Kun:
"Ah Feng, impressive!"
Lin Feng yawned:
"You guys are really crazy!"
"Where are there Young and Dangerous who get up before noon?"
"It's really affecting my sleep."
Sister Thirteen rolled her eyes hard:
"You're not being a Young and Dangerous, you're being a lord."
Lin Feng nodded, making sounds of agreement.
Sister Thirteen became even more depressed.
Chiang Tin-Sung clapped his hands and said:
"Sai B is dead, and Fatty Lai has also been removed."
"Causeway Bay and North Point cannot be without Hall Masters for a single day."
"Do you have any good recommendations?"
Sister Thirteen and Hon Ban exchanged glances, then raised her hand and said:
"Mr. Chiang, I have something to say."
Chiang Tin-Sung smiled and said:
"Little Sister, speak."
Sister Thirteen cleared her throat and said to everyone:
"Our Hung Hing has always had a rule: merits must be rewarded, and faults must be punished."
"If a Hall Master position is vacant, the first priority is that Hall Master's lineage."
"Sai B is thoroughly dead, so this position can be given to someone with merit."
Chiang Tin-Sung clapped his hands and said:
"Not bad."
"Sai B is dead, and none of his subordinates are Big Brothers to inherit his position."
"I propose that Ah Feng, who found the killer of Sai B's entire family, take his place."
"Who is in favor, and who is against?"
Liang Kun was the first to raise his hand:
"I'm in favor."
Baji chuckled:
"Ah Feng is fine, I'm in favor."
The other two from Yau Tsim Mong, Prince and Sister Thirteen, both raised their hands:
"I'm in favor."
Hon Ban and his three brothers also raised their hands:
"I'm in favor."
Chan Yiu secretly regretted being a step slow and quickly raised his hand:
"I'm in favor."
Brother Xin and Liang Ma exchanged glances and also raised their hands, saying,
"I'm in favor."
Chiang Tin-Sung laughed loudly;
"Ah Feng, from today onwards, you are the boss of Causeway Bay."
Lin Feng was still dozing off when he suddenly heard his name, saw Chiang Tin-Sung's gesture, and quickly stood up:
"Thank you, Mr. Chiang, thank you, Hall Masters."
Baji affectionately pulled over a nearby chair:
"Ah Feng, come sit."
Lin Feng cupped his hands to everyone and then sat in the chair representing the Causeway Bay Hall Master.
Chiang Tin-Sung nodded with satisfaction and then said:
"The North Point position is also empty. What good arrangements do you have?"
This time, everyone fell silent.
Chiang Tin-Sung then called out names:
"Ah Feng, tell us your thoughts."
Lin Feng gestured to everyone:
"Dai Fei and Greyhound were indispensable in catching Fatty Lai."
"According to our Triad's rules, if a Hall Master position is vacant and that particular branch doesn't have a Big Brother, then Big Brothers from other branches can compete."
"If that particular branch has a Big Brother, the Hall Master candidate is chosen from within that branch."
"Dai Fei and Greyhound are neither direct subordinates of Fatty Lai, and both have rendered meritorious service."
"Who among the two can become Hall Master is not for me to decide; that depends on how Mr. Chiang arranges it."
Dai Fei and Greyhound, sitting behind the North Point Hall Master's chair, both felt their hearts race.
Both were filled with gratitude towards Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's words basically limited the North Point Hall Master to one of the two of them.
Regardless of who took the Hall Master position, both would owe him a debt of gratitude.
The other Hall Masters had no objections.
Lin Feng emphasized again:
"Our Hung Hing is one of the top ten large Triads in the underworld."
"What we need is stability, not impulsive recklessness."
Chiang Tin-Sung's gaze towards Lin Feng grew even more approving:
"Ah Feng is right. Our territory is large enough, and our resources are abundant enough. Only with stability can we bring sufficient profits to the Triad, to the company, and to everyone."
"The North Point Hall Master position, Greyhound, is yours!"
Greyhound was overjoyed, while Dai Fei, in contrast, looked somewhat dejected.
Once Greyhound was seated, Chiang Tin-Sung said again,
"Little Sister is right, merits must be rewarded, and faults must be punished. Dai Fei has merit and cannot go unrewarded."
"I have good news for everyone: Macau's Grand Lisboa has released five Diamond Rooms, and our Hung Hing won two in the bidding."
Everyone's spirits immediately lifted.
Diamond Rooms are large gambling halls where millions are wagered; if managed well, earning two to three million a month is very easy.
Chiang Tin-Sung walked up to Dai Fei and patted his shoulder:
"Those two rooms, I'm entrusting them to you to manage!"
Dai Fei was overjoyed, quickly stood up, and loudly said:
"Thank you, Mr. Chiang."
Being in Macau, although far from the Hong Kong headquarters, also meant he was the local emperor of the Macau branch. As long as he managed it well, he would make a lot of money.
Catching Fatty Lai, the reward was too great!
***
Chapter 76: Promotion
After the meeting at the Hall of Brotherhood, Chiang Tin-Sung asked with a smile,
"Ah Feng, when are you holding the reception?"
Lin Feng thought for a moment:
"Let's wait until the funeral of Little B is over."
Chiang Tin-Sung's appreciation grew even stronger:
"That's for the best."
Upon hearing this, Greyhound and Dai Fei also had to postpone their promotion receptions.
It was indeed not suitable to hold a reception when Little B's funeral had not yet taken place.
Liang Kun approached and said to Mr. Chiang,
"Mr. Chiang, I want to promote Chicken."
Lin Feng immediately said:
"One matter, not two masters. I also need to promote my subordinates."
Chiang Tin-Sung smiled at Sixth Uncle in the Ritual Hall:
"Sixth Uncle, I'll trouble you, old man."
Sixth Uncle grinned and said:
"This is what I do."
So, the group went down to the Hall of Brotherhood, and with Sixth Uncle as a witness,
Liang Kun's subordinate Chicken, and Lin Feng's subordinates Li Fu and Lok Tin-hung, were promoted.
As for Mo Chiu-Nam, he had already been promoted; of course, Liang Kun only used him as a bodyguard.
Chicken and Lok Tin-hung were both promoted to Red Pole, while Li Fu was promoted to Straw Sandal.
Lok Tin-hung was surprised:
"Brother Fu is clearly a better fighter than me, and he's promoted to Straw Sandal?"
Li Fu smiled and said:
"Isn't it common knowledge that a Straw Sandal can fight better than a Red Pole?"
Lok Tin-hung was speechless:
"Whose common knowledge?"
Li Fu pointed at Lin Feng:
"Brother Feng's common knowledge."
"What, do you have an opinion?"
How could Lok Tin-hung dare to have an opinion?
Liang Kun patted Chicken's shoulder and said:
"You rascal, from now on you'll be my head horse. With Ah Feng as an example, don't mess up."
Chicken was startled:
"Boss, how can I compare to Brother Feng?"
"Your expectations are too high."
Liang Kun said irritably:
"No ambition! At your young age, you should be striving forward."
Chicken spoke truthfully:
"I think when you're out in the Triad, making money comes first."
If he were still with Chan Ho-Nam under Little B, Chicken would definitely be full of passion, determined to cut people down to climb the ranks.
However, after just one day with Liang Kun, what he witnessed stimulated Chicken.
Little B was, after all, one of the Hung Hing Twelve Hall Masters. It goes without saying that people move on and the tea grows cold; even after death, the Triad would use him to maximize their interests.
It turned out that the upper echelons of the Triad only cared about profit and nothing else.
This hurt Chicken quite a bit.
Thinking back to the days of aimlessly messing around with Chan Ho-Nam and the others, it truly was aimless messing around.
Very naive and innocent.
Liang Kun was good to him, though.
On the first day he took him in as a subordinate, he told him the truth:
"When you're out in the Triad, making money comes first. All the other messy stuff, just listen and forget."
At the time, Chicken thought Brother Kun had been deeply hurt by someone and had developed a complex.
After experiencing the negotiations between two major Triads, Chicken understood—Brother Kun told me the truth!
Then he wanted to climb the ranks even more.
Bottom-level Young and Dangerous, whoever wants to do it, does it. They're all cannon fodder.
Those big bosses all brainwash them with "loyalty and righteousness," and a bunch of brainwashed Young and Dangerous yell and hack people, or get hacked.
Thinking of his innocent days before, Chicken only felt utterly ashamed.
Liang Kun saw through Chicken's thoughts at a glance, vigorously ruffled Chicken's hair, making it messy,
"This Triad world isn't as good as you think, but it's not as bad as you think either."
"I still say the same thing: as long as you don't let me down, I will definitely make you rich and prosperous."
Chicken nodded fiercely:
"Thank you, Boss."
Liang Kun asked Lin Feng:
"What are you planning to do? Go clean up the mess in Causeway Bay?"
Lin Feng rolled his eyes:
"Who would dare to cause trouble for our Causeway Bay at this time?"
"Situ?"
"Lend him two more guts."
Everyone laughed.
Situ couldn't last a single encounter against Lin Feng. Even now, thinking about it felt shocking.
The reputation of the Tung Sing Five Tigers wasn't just talked about; it was earned through fighting.
Prince had frequently fought with the other Tung Sing Five Tigers.
Without the support of Li Fu and others, it would have been difficult for him to establish a firm foothold.
No one expected Lin Feng to be so formidable. Szeto Ho-Nam probably dreamt of a bed full of Lin Fengs.
Chicken asked curiously:
"Brother Feng, you're so powerful, why haven't I seen you make a move?"
Lin Feng said, speechless:
"Isn't there still Xiao Fu?"
"If you want to challenge me, you have to get past Xiao Fu first."
Chicken secretly thought he was stupid. When did a boss casually make a move?
Lok Tin-hung corrected him:
"From now on, if you want to challenge the boss, you have to get past me first."
Lin Feng sighed:
"Then good luck. Don't you want to be the best in the world? You need to hurry up and beat Xiao Fu."
Lok Tin-hung's expression changed, and he immediately said:
"I will surpass Brother Fu, then come to challenge the boss."
Lin Feng said perfunctorily:
"Then good luck!"
Lok Tin-hung was speechless.
Li Fu gently patted his shoulder:
"Tin Hung, good luck!"
Lok Tin-hung was furious!
However, there was nothing he could do. He was only eighteen, his body hadn't fully matured yet, and he was no match for his two big brothers.
The young man resolved that he must surpass Li Fu in three, no, five years!
Then strive to surpass Lin Feng in ten, no, twenty years.
This title of the best in the world must be mine!
Lin Feng instructed:
"Next, we need to arrange the funeral for Little B. Contact the funeral home, contact the Hall Masters, and make sure this is done well."
"We had no conflict with Little B, and now we've inherited Causeway Bay, so naturally, we should give Little B a proper send-off."
"Brother Kei said it well, the deceased comes first."
"Don't be afraid to spend money on this; Tung Sing will pay for it anyway."
Li Fu nodded solemnly.
"I want you to get this done within three days."
"Oh, and spread the word that Fatty Lai, who killed Little B, has been dealt with by the company."
Chicken asked:
"Do we not need to mention Lui Yiu-Yeung?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"Lui Yiu-Yeung gave up so much territory to save his own life. How can we mention him?"
"Even if you wanted to avenge Little B, the Hall Masters who benefited wouldn't agree."
Chicken was startled:
"I wasn't thinking of avenging him."
Liang Kun burst out laughing:
"Ah Feng, Chicken is new to this circle, so it's normal for him not to understand some things."
He patted Chicken,
"You're a big boss now, and you should try managing your own turf and recruiting your own subordinates."
"My head horse of Liang Kun cannot be too shabby."
Chicken was overjoyed:
"Thank you, Brother Kun."
Suddenly, Chicken had a flash of inspiration:
"Brother Feng, how do you manage your turf?"
Liang Kun laughed so hard he stumbled:
"Ah Feng never manages turf; he always opens his own turf."
"Do you think Hung Hing's big financier is an empty title?"
Chicken's mouth dropped open, and he exclaimed:
"Brother Feng, you're one of our Hung Hing's big financiers?"
Lin Feng looked at Chicken strangely:
"What, you didn't know?"
"A considerable number of shops in Causeway Bay are mine."
"It's just that this is the territory of the Old Four Families, and what I can collect now is already the limit."
Chicken was stunned. Are we in the same Triad world?
