Xu Lang smiled and said, "I've said before that I want to be friends with you, Liao Sir! After all, the world isn't all black and white!"
Upon hearing this, Liao Zhizong nodded.
If Xu Lang is really willing to cooperate, there's nothing wrong with becoming friends with him. Most importantly, Xu Lang doesn't do business with the "number four" (a derogatory term for someone involved in illegal activities), and his other businesses are basically legitimate, which doesn't violate his principles.
"Quickly, pour Liao sir a cup of tea!"
Xu Lang waved his hand, and soon a henchman brought over a cup of tea.
Xu Lang took the tea and pushed it in front of Liao Zhizong, saying with a smile, "Since Liao sir is here to make friends, let me tell you something else. Your subordinate Inspector Lei Meizhen is actually Lian Haodong's man from Chung Yee Shun. Otherwise, Chung Yee Shun wouldn't have been able to infiltrate the Mong Kok Police Station so easily!"
Upon hearing this, Liao Zhizong frowned.
What Xu Lang said is indeed correct!
Afterwards, the two chatted for a few more minutes, but Liao Zhizong was preoccupied and completely absent-minded, so Xu Lang spoke up.
"If Inspector Liao has something to attend to, perhaps you should go back and take care of it first!"
"Then, Boss Xu, I'll take my leave!"
Liao Zhizong got up and headed towards the Mong Kok police station.
At this moment, Inspector Lei Meizhen was sitting in her seat feeling extremely uncomfortable. She kept looking around, clearly having a guilty conscience.
At this moment, Liao Zhizong, who had returned to the Mong Kok police station, came over with several policemen and said directly to Inspector Lei Meizhen: "I have received intelligence that you, Inspector Lei Meizhen of Mong Kok, have some connections with triads. Please cooperate with the investigation!"
Upon hearing this, Lei Meizhen deflated like a punctured balloon, suddenly losing her spirit.
"Please come with us!"
"That's what the policeman behind Liao Zhizong said."
Lei Meizhen reluctantly stood up and left.
P.S.: Adding a chapter from yesterday.
Chapter Fifty-Two: Taking Over Territory
Hong Kong Island was as bustling as ever in the evening, with Mong Kok being its most dazzling jewel.
People come and go, cars and horses are everywhere!
At this moment, Xu Lang was surrounded by a large group of Tung Sing thugs dressed in black vests and carrying watermelon knives in front of the powerful finance company in Mong Kok.
He originally didn't have a finance company in Portland Street, Mong Kok, but after Portland Street became his territory for a while, he opened a branch of a powerful finance company there.
In a place as prosperous as Mong Kok, there are countless people who want to borrow money. Others have branch offices there one after another, so Xu Lang naturally has no reason not to open one.
Just then, dressed in custom-made suits, the dashing Toad Fifth Brother Li Hao, the Snake Second Brother Hong Wentong, and the Centipede First Brother Tang Shankui strode into the boss's office of the Powerful Finance Company's Portland Street branch.
"Boss, Ah Hao, Shan Kui, and Ma Teng each brought a thousand men, plus the two thousand men we've gathered here, making a total of five thousand men. They're all assembled!"
"The second brother of the Spirit Serpent, Hong Wentong, reported to Xu Lang, who was sitting with his back to him."
"it is good!"
Xu Lang, who was looking out the window and smoking a cigar, turned around in his boss's chair, nodded in satisfaction, and said to Hong Wentong, the second-in-command of the Snake Sect, "There are 25 million Hong Kong dollars in those three backpacks. That's the appearance fee for all the brothers tonight. Take it out now and distribute it to the brothers!"
After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Tonight, I will take over Zhongyixin's territory, understand?"
"Yes, boss!"
Led by Hong Wentong, the second-in-command of the Snake Clan, Li Hao, the fifth-in-command of the Toad Clan, and Tang Shankui, the eldest-in-command of the Centipede Clan, they stood up straight and nodded solemnly.
With such a large entourage from their boss, they naturally couldn't let him down!
"Alright, you guys hurry up and distribute all this money!"
Xu Lang said in a deep voice.
The second-in-command of the Snake, Hong Wentong; the fifth-in-command of the Toad, Li Hao; and the eldest-in-command of the Centipede, Tang Shankui, stepped forward, each carrying a bag of money, and walked towards the exit of the finance company.
They soon arrived at the entrance of the finance company.
"Brothers, this is your appearance fee tonight. Once you're paid, you'd better do a good job, understand?"
Li Hao, nicknamed "Frog Old Five," walked up, picked up a bag of money in front of him, and asked.
"understand!"
In an instant, five thousand men spoke up at the same time, their shouts shaking the heavens, their momentum was unmatched!
"Brothers, same old deal, five thousand each for appearance fee!"
Hong Wentong, the second brother of the Snake, also stepped forward with his money bag and added a sentence.
"The boss is mighty!"
"The boss is so generous!"
Upon hearing this, the henchmen present raised their watermelon knives and shouted "647!"
No matter what, Xu Lang is the most generous of all the gang leaders in the area, without a doubt!
Subsequently, under the busy distribution efforts of the three leaders – Hong Wentong (the second-in-command of the Snake), Li Hao (the fifth-in-command of the Toad), and Tang Shankui (the first-in-command of the Centipede) – all five thousand underlings received their appearance fees, and they were all in high spirits, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
They're out in the game, all for money and fame. Once they're paid, they get excited and can't wait to go and kill someone!
"Brothers, follow me and let's take down Zhongyixin!"
Li Hao, the fifth brother of the toads, raised his watermelon knife and shouted, and his five thousand followers responded and headed towards the territory of Zhongyixin in a mighty procession!
Chung Yee Shun has five streets in Mong Kok, most of which are not far from Portland Street. Two of them are right next to Portland Street, and it doesn't take long to walk there.
Xu Lang's gathering of 5,000 men at once had already alarmed many in the underworld. After all, 5,000 men was no small number; it was considered a medium-sized gang in Hong Kong.
As these 5,000 men headed towards Zhongyixin's territory, everyone watching realized that Xu Lang, the Qilin Tiger of Dongxing, was heading for Zhongyixin and intended to seize his territory!
I heard that Chung Yee Shun has recently lost a lot of men, but it is still one of the top triads in Mong Kok. How dare Tsui Long confront them head-on?
That's ruthless!
How dare you!!
……
At this moment, inside the headquarters building of Chung Yi Shin.
Wearing a suit, Lian Haodong walked briskly towards his elder brother Lian Haolong's office.
I passed by the office area on the way and saw my sister-in-law, Susu, so I asked her:
"Sister-in-law, where is my eldest brother now?"
This was the first time Su Su had seen Lian Haodong look so grim, and she immediately replied, "Your older brother is in his office right now!"
"Ok!"
Lian Haodong responded and quickly stepped forward to knock on Lian Haolong's office door.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
"Brother, it's me!"
No matter how urgent the situation, rules are rules!
"Come in!"
Upon hearing Lian Haolong's voice, Lian Haodong pushed open the door and entered, only to find Lian Haolong at his desk looking through documents.
"Haodong, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Seeing that Lian Haodong's expression was somewhat unpleasant, Lian Haolong immediately asked.
Lian Haodong strode forward to Lian Haolong's desk and said, "Brother, something bad has happened! The people from Dongxing have attacked!"
"What?!!!"
Upon hearing this, Lian Haolong was taken aback for a moment.
What's with this sudden turn of events?
His expression immediately changed again. He stood up and instructed Lian Haodong, "Go and gather your men right now. You must defend our Zhongyixin territory. Do you understand?"
"Brother, I understand!"
Lian Haodong replied in a deep voice, nodded emphatically, and then turned to go about his business.
Before Lian Haodong could leave the office, Lian Haolong quickly pulled the phone on his desk to his face and dialed Luo Tianhong's number.
The music was very loud over there, and Luo Tianhong was in the bar she managed at that moment.
"Hey, boss, what's up?"
Luo Tianhong spoke first, her tone very relaxed.
Lian Haolong said directly, "Tianhong, the people from Dongxing have invaded your territory. You must defend my Zhongyixin territory, do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Tianhong, who had been sitting casually on the sofa, suddenly sat up straight and nodded heavily, saying, "Understood, boss. I'll go gather the people right now!"
"du~du~du~"
The phone hangs up.
After that, Luo Tianhong busied himself gathering his underlings.
Now that Luo Dingfa, Awu, and Aheng are all dead, the loyal and trustworthy talents are dwindling, and the only ones who can shoulder the responsibility are Lian Haodong and Luo Tianhong.
……
Half an hour later, Toad Lao Wu Li Hao and Centipede Lao Da Tang Shan Kui led nearly three thousand people directly to the street managed by Luo Tianhong.
Meanwhile, Luo Tianhong's side had gathered nearly two thousand people, who were facing off against Toad Laowu and Li Hao from afar.
In addition to these two thousand-plus people, Luo Tianhong also transferred a group of people from other places, who should be able to join him soon.
At this moment, Luo Tianhong, who was standing in front of the two thousand loyal and righteous followers, had a toothpick in his mouth and looked very arrogant. In his right hand, he was holding an eight-sided Han sword!
Luo Tianhong was surrounded by his underlings. One of them stepped forward and said to Luo Tianhong, "Brother Tianhong, those are Dongxing's men. Their leader is known in the underworld as 'Killer Hao,' the one who took down Master Ma of Yuanma Group!"
Li Hao, nicknamed "Toad Old Five," was already a well-known figure in the martial arts world; he was easily recognizable.
However, since joining Xu Lang's team, the centipede leader Tang Shan Kui has rarely made a move, so not many people know about him.
"Pfft~"
