Hong Kong: Starting with 10 billion

Chapter 65 What is Jianghu? (First 6K)
Jiu Wenlong came as Fang Hexuan's messenger.

Talked with Xiang Huayan for half an hour.

When it's time to see the guests off,
The leader of the Sun Yee On also showed respect to Fang Hexuan.

Personally send Jiu Wenlong out.

The person following Xiang Huayan sighed:
"Brother is really cautious!"

Xiang Huayan adjusted his glasses and rolled his eyes at him.

"The Jianghu is also a place of right and wrong. It's never a bad thing to be more polite."

"Besides, I am not only attracted by Fang's wealth, but also by the 1.2 million investment from the Sun Yee On."

"So, the money that you and your brothers raised was taken away by this person?"

"Well, it not only took our money, but I heard it also took 4000 million from the 'Big Four'."

"Hiss, you guys are really sending money to a kid!"

"Tenth brother, you are already thirty years old this year, can you use your brain a little more?"

"How could I not arrange for someone to keep an eye on him and his family?"

"Also, I used my connections to check the money, and it has never left HSBC since it entered it."

"What does it mean? It means that this money must have been operated in HSBC's investment system."

"He still owes HSBC 8 million yuan, and has investments approaching 10 billion yuan, which he has not transferred out."

"Although I don't know where Mr. Fang spent his money, the fact that HSBC dared to help him make this investment shows that HSBC has considered the risks."

“If HSBC isn’t afraid, why should I be afraid?”

"Or are you afraid that you won't be able to get back your mere 200 million?"

"Uh, brother, what are you talking about? I'm just concerned."

"Why don't you pay attention to your own movies? What kind of shit are they?"

"That's my hobby. I'm not interested in fighting and killing."

"Forget it, it's up to you."

"The newspaper said that Fang Hexuan's film crew was harassed by a gang, so... is he looking for help from big brother?"

"Alas! I still underestimated this person."

"It's only been two months, and he has already founded a film company and acquired a listed company. His ambitions are not small!"

"What do you mean, brother?"

"They are really powerful now, Sun Yee On cannot afford to offend them!"

"Fuck you, 14K is like looking for a lantern in a toilet."

"I just asked Master Lin, that little scoundrel Zhang Zengjie is a henchman under 14K Hua Xi."

"This idiot Buddha probably wants to take revenge on Fang."

"Oh? Is there a story in this?"

"You really don't care about the club at all!"

"On the day Fang was released from prison, he spent $600 million to organize a big fight in Stanley Prison."

"Blind Kun, do you know? That guy's hands and feet were broken, and he's still lying in Stanley Prison Hospital."

"Hua Xi and Blind Kun were once sworn brothers. If he didn't do anything when his good brother was beaten to a pulp, everyone in the underworld would laugh at him!"

"But Fang is no longer the same as before. He can just spray water from a big hose and there will be a large number of people who want to make money working for him."

"Tsk tsk tsk, now there's another good show to watch!"

"Alas, once you enter the martial world, there will be many troubles."

"Mr. Fang asked his men to come and pass on the message. It's clear that he wants to save face."

"He made bold statements at yesterday's press conference, but today he was slapped in the face by Hua Xi in front of all Hong Kong people. Anyone would want to avenge their shame."

"If he doesn't take any action, his DreamWorks will not be able to survive in the Hong Kong film industry, and his listed company won't be able to expect a big rise in its stock price!"

"The most important thing is, who would dare to make a movie for a company that can't protect the safety of its crew?"

"Well, so Big Brother has decided to get involved in this mess?"

"Of course! At least until we get back the 1.2 million, Sun Yee On and Fang Hexuan will share honor and disgrace."

"I have asked Master Lin to meet with Hu Xuyong. 14K must give an explanation for this matter."

Canton Road, Mong Kok, Kowloon Ice House.

Several members of the "Tsz Wan Shan Thirteen Tigers" gathered here temporarily.

This Boy Scout organization was actually set up by a bunch of bad boys who wanted to become famous.

Most of its members later joined 14K.

The oldest leader, Mao Dunhua, became addicted to drugs in 1965 at the age of 17.

In 1968, in order to obtain drugs more easily, he ran to Kowloon Walled City and joined 14K.

In 1973, he was seriously injured in a gunfight with other gangs, so he decided to turn over a new leaf and received drug rehabilitation in 1974.

Although he no longer participates in 14K's social affairs,
But I still care about my little brother who has been through thick and thin with me.

We learned from the third brother Li Zhaoji, who was still in 14K, that the sixth brother Zhang Zengjie had caused big trouble.

After leaving the underworld, Mao Dunhua started to do some serious work.
Only then did I know what the truth about Hong Kong society is.

If you mess with the cop, the worst that can happen is that you go to jail.

However, if you provoke rich and powerful people, you may be hunted down by the underworld.

He had also heard of Fang Hexuan recently.

The newspapers said he was a young god of wealth who could amass hundreds of millions in just a few months.

Based on his experience in the underworld, it is best not to provoke such a person.

So, he informed several brothers,
Including Cat Chan Chun Fai, Go Fei Lee Siu Kee, Money Pop Wu Ke Ming, Broken Tooth Koi, Yue Hua Zai,

We plan to persuade this confused little brother Zhang Zengjie together.

Zhang Zengjie is 24 years old this year, 6 years younger than Mao Dunhua.

Although he had been following the boss in gangster life since he was a teenager, he has always been a simple-minded person and easily trusts others.

But he has a very stubborn temper and won't listen to advice.

"Ajie, listen to my brother's advice, buy some gifts and go to Fang Sheng's crew to apologize. If you really can't, I'll go with you."

"Brother Hua, thank you for your kindness, but everyone has their own responsibility. I can't apologize. I have never bowed my head to anyone in my life."

"Idiot! Do you think you are a big shot? You are just a gang member. What is more important, your face or your life?"

Mao Dunhua was so angry at the tone of the sixth brother Zhang Zengjie, who seemed to be unaware of his imminent death, that he started cursing.

Li Zhaoji, Wu Keming and others nearby immediately started to try to mediate.

"Brother, don't bother with Lao Liu. You know that he has been making trouble since he was a child."

"It was okay for him to be stupid before, but this time it's different. He has offended hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars."

"Is there no other way?"

"How difficult is it to apologize? As a gangster, you are not afraid of being stabbed. It is better to admit your mistakes than to lose your life."

"But."

The seventh brother, Broken Tooth Koi, who had been silent, interrupted Li Zhaoji.

"How about letting Brother Jie go to Macau with me? I was born and raised there, so it will definitely be safer there than staying in Hong Kong."

"It's a feasible method, as soon as possible."

Before Mao Dunhua finished speaking, Zhang Zengjie's stubborn temper came up again.

"I'm staying in Hong Kong and not going anywhere. I have Buddha protecting me and my 14K brothers guarding me. If I'm afraid of that little white face, I won't be named Zhang."

Mao Dunhua couldn't bear it any longer.

He stood up suddenly, and the chair was knocked over with a clang.

It seemed that he was about to slap Zhang Zengjie.

Several people nearby immediately rushed forward and pulled the former "big brother" away.

Li Zhaoji knew that the two of them were completely at loggerheads, and continuing would only make their tempers flare up, so he said:
"Brother Hua, forget it. It's useless to persuade him. At worst, I, Gao Fei, will always protect him. When the storm of this matter has passed, I will take him to apologize."

"That's all. I'll go find Hua Xi later and ask him to protect Ajie."

······
14K Council Hall.

After Sun Yee On chief Lam King threatened 14K to hand over the suspect within a certain period of time,
Hu Xuyong, Buddha Huaxi, Hong Hanyi, Mo Dingping, the old man of Black and White Impermanence and Moro and other big bosses in the gang had to get together to discuss the matter.

But it was mainly Hu Xuyong and Hua Xi who were arguing, while everyone else was silent and just watched the show.

"Everyone, 14K can't continue to be so disorderly. If Master Buddha provokes privately, it may bring bad luck to the society as well."

"Bullshit! You're just a coward, don't bring up the whole 14K issue."

"Master Buddha, I won't argue with you. I just want to ask you, are you going to hand over this bastard Zhang Zengjie or not?"

"Hu Xuyong, you are a fool without balls. You need to understand that it was Fang who crippled A Kun's hands and feet. The rules of the underworld are give and take. I have been very polite by not taking his mother and sister to Kowloon Walled City to be prostitutes."

"Listen everyone, can such a person be the leader of our 14K? He is the only one who made a stupid mistake. Does that mean all the people in 14K have to follow him to the end?"

"Do you know who this Fang is?"

"I spent money to find out that Sir Yue-Kong Pao of Global Shipping is from the same hometown as him and helped him borrow 8 million from HSBC. Do you know what kind of relationship this is?"

"He was able to escape from prison because of Pao Yue-kong's connections with the Governor of Hong Kong. I don't need to say more, right?"

"So what? We 14K are the largest gang in Hong Kong, with hundreds of thousands of members. Would we be afraid of a few rich guys?"

Hua Xi has already started to talk nonsense and be stubborn. In fact, he feels a little weak inside and is not as tough as he appears to be.

But now it is not only about his face as the "gangster Zhang Fei", but also about his power and status within 14K.

If you don't help your sworn brother to get revenge, at most people will accuse you of being disloyal.

But if you betray your subordinates who are doing things for you, it is not just a simple "moral" issue.

Rather, it is a fatal crisis of "people's morale has been scattered and the team is difficult to lead."

Who will hang out with him in the future?
In other words, he no longer dared to trust his own men.

Because you never know when they will betray you.

Not only that, Mao Dunhua and Li Zhaoji also came to plead for Zhang Zengjie.

The meaning of his words is very clear - Ajie was sent by your brother Xi to cause trouble, and he cannot have to take the blame for you in the end.

Although Mao Dunhua has effectively withdrawn from 14K, he still has many friends in the society.

Li Zhaoji is now a 14K red stick. Every time the society shows off his horse and fights,
He is always the first to rush forward and has a high status in the gang.

If Zhang Zengjie cannot be saved this time, there is no guarantee that these people will not collude with their opponents such as Hu Xuyong.
Let’s do it ourselves.

Once a gang leader loses his status in the gang and the support of his followers, what is the difference between him and a passerby?

"I don't care what your opinions are. I, Hua Xi, just want to protect Ajie. I can be a coward, but I can't be disloyal."

"Master Buddha, you have to think carefully. Last time, it was because you took the initiative to deal with Fang Hexuan that more than 400 brothers in Stanley Prison were beaten."

"This time, if the other party wants to retaliate, 14K will not be buried with you."

Hu Xuyong deliberately brought up the old matter again and threatened again.

"Hu Xuyong, you motherfucker, you're not the leader of 14K. No one else is talking, so your words mean nothing!"

"Haha. Wu Huaxi, it's hard to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. I hope you don't regret it!"

······
Fang Hexuan asked Jiu Wenlong to tell Sun Yee On,

He wants to see the murderer appear in front of him within three days.

However, three days later, nothing happened. Instead, You Bingwen was transferred to a general ward, and Fang Hexuan even accompanied his mother to deliver a bowl of nutritious soup.

The crew of "Drunken Master" resumed filming, and Wang Tianlin was tactful and appeared on the set for several days in a row.

Fang Hexuan also visited the crew, brought some food, and promised to give an extra bonus.

He also took the initiative to find his fellow Zhejiang native Da Lao Wang to learn about the filming situation of the crew.

The fat boy Wang Rixiang next to him looked curiously at the DreamWorks boss who was younger, more handsome, taller and richer than him.

We are all from Zhejiang, why is there such a big difference between us?

But he didn't feel the slightest jealousy in his heart.

Thinking of a script he had just finished writing, his eyes began to roll around.

After Fang Hexuan finished these trivial matters, on his way back to Wanda,

Said to Jiu Wenlong who was driving:
"Brother Long, please send a message to your gang for me."

"Just say someone wants to buy Zhang Zengjie's life, offering HK$200 million, with a deadline of three months."

"Also, leave a secret contact number for the other party. Once you succeed, help me verify whether the person is dead or not."

".Xuan Shao, there's no need to make such a big deal, right?"

"Brother Long, you guys in the martial arts world do things without considering the consequences, but I'm a businessman, and I always have to consider the pros and cons of everything."

"If someone dares to smash my crew today, someone will dare to set fire to Wanda tomorrow, and someone will dare to kidnap my family the day after tomorrow."

"As the saying goes, if you are not ruthless, you can't stand firm! If I don't set some rules, even a jerk would dare to shit and piss on my head. If it were you, would you be able to endure it?"

"14K has caused me trouble countless times. If it weren't for the law, I would really like to spend tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars to send all of these people to hell."

"This matter is not over yet. I will kill Wu Huaxi sooner or later. Now I am just killing a chicken to scare the monkeys."

"But what if the police find out?"

"Then be careful and don't get discovered."

······
That night, a piece of news went viral in Hong Kong's underworld:

14K Zhang Zengjie’s life is worth 200 million Hong Kong dollars!
This amount of money is enough for an ordinary working-class person to work for 80 years without eating or drinking.

People's hearts are in turmoil and full of murderous intent!
Xiang Huayan, who received the news, looked at Lin Jing and said with a helpless smile:

"This guy named Fang is really a ruthless person. He doesn't take money seriously at all."

"I admire him even more. I used to think he was tolerant, but now I find he is quite ruthless. People like him are born to do great things."

"Then Master Lin, should we send someone as well?"

"We've already messed up once, and it's hard to explain to him. It's better to send someone to participate to show our attitude."

Hu Xuyong also knew about this "gangster hunting order".
His thick mustache curved upward as his lip muscles expanded.

"Hua Xi, you idiot, your henchmen are dead!"

Mao Dunhua, Li Zhaoji and others who also heard the news,

They found Zhang Zengjie overnight and sent him to Macau across the sea.
And Beng Yau Koi will take care of his safety.

Half a month passed like this.
The Hong Kong underworld was in chaos, but Zhang Zengjie was not found.

Many people speculated that 14K might have already sent the people out of Hong Kong.

Those who coveted the 200 million Hong Kong dollars were beating their chests and stamping their feet, as they had lost the opportunity to get rich overnight.

Fang Hexuan was not in a hurry.
He has been busy helping Liu Juncheng prepare for the magazine in the past half month.

For example, buying a printing factory, hiring an editor, designing the layout, etc.

He didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters, but he couldn't stand Liu Juncheng's pestering.

You Bingwen has also been discharged from the hospital and needs to recuperate at home for a few days.

The crew of "Drunken Master" is about to wrap up filming, and there are still two months until the planned release date.

There were also things that made Fang Hexuan happy.

The crisis of bankruptcy of Jiayi Television Station is getting more serious, and there are many different opinions on the internal personnel situation.

If not now, when will we poach people?
Fang Hexuan personally led the human resources team to contact the behind-the-scenes staff and artists of Jiayi one by one.

Liu Tianci was the first general he recruited.

Fang Hexuan promised him the position of production manager at DreamWorks. The only people above him were the general manager and the chairman.

This person has the talent of a screenwriter, can be a producer, and can also handle management. He is the talent that DreamWorks urgently needs.

Then, the future great director Tsui Hark also signed with DreamWorks as a film director under the promise and persuasion of Fang Hexuan.

The successive departure of two big names broke the hearts of many people.

DreamWorks took this opportunity to sign film actor contracts with supporting actors such as Cheng Yuling, Kaohsiung, Feng Cuifan, Qin Pei, Zeng Jiang, and Cao Dahua.

DreamWorks doesn't care if they make TV series, but if DreamWorks wants to make movies and there are roles that need them, they can't refuse.

······
Macao.

A residential area near Gaolou Street is divided into two by a small alley no more than two meters wide.

The houses here are mostly two-story buildings, with a lot of illegal construction and messy electric wires running through the streets and alleys.

On the second floor of a house on the left side of the alley, three people were playing poker. There was another person standing in a room near the alley.

At this time, I was peeking at the house opposite the window.

This man's nickname is Sha Dan Xiong. He is about 14 or years old and has been a member of K for more than years.

He was not a high-ranking gang leader like the Red Sticks or Straw Sandals, but an ordinary "four-nine guy".

But everyone in the Hong Kong underworld knows about Sha Danxiong's reputation.

In the early 70s, he founded an organization called "Killer Gang" and appointed himself as the leader of the organization.

It can be said that although his position in 14K is not high, he is very powerful.

He has many subordinates who, like him, are willing to give up their lives and only care about money, such as Sang Wei, who is now serving his sentence in Stanley Prison.

There are many legendary stories about this person, one of which is extremely miraculous.

In 1972, there was a smuggling group in Hong Kong.
A batch of brand-name watches worth one million Hong Kong dollars were shipped to Japan.

However, the goods were robbed by the local Japanese gang Yamashita.

The leader of the smuggling group was a woman named "Xie Ergu", who was the favorite student of Qi Weiwen, the first leader of 14K.

When Xie Ergu learned that her goods had been stolen,

So he promised to pay each of them 15000 Hong Kong dollars and gathered dozens of desperate criminals.

Cross the sea to the east to seek revenge on the Yamashita Gang in Japan.
Sha Danxiong is one of them.

After arriving in Japan, with the help of her relatives,

Soon they got hold of the whereabouts of the Yamashita Gang.
Ambush in advance and wait for the opportunity to act.

In the end, one person from the Yamashita gang died and five were injured.
The one who committed the murder was Sha Danxiong.

After returning triumphantly, Xie Ergu rewarded him according to his merits.

Sha Danxiong was awarded an additional HK$1 reward, and the others were given an additional HK$3000 each.

From then on, Sha Danxiong came up with the idea of ​​establishing a "killer gang" organization.

After Sha Danxiong went to Japan to "gild his reputation", his "heroic deeds" quickly spread throughout the Hong Kong underworld, making him famous.

Soon after, in the fierce fight between 14K and Wo Shing Wo for territory, Sha Danxiong led 8 of his men and beat the other side into a pulp.

Since then, Sha Danxiong has been known as the "Tiger of Mong Kok" and has become the number one killer among 14K.
He claimed that as long as he was paid, he could do anything.
Even if the target person is a fellow disciple, it is still possible.

Half a month ago, Fang Hexuan's 200 million bounty order was issued.

This made him think of exchanging the life of his fellow student Zhang Zengjie for money.

However, after searching for more than ten days, there was still no trace of this person.

I was planning to call it a day, but unexpectedly I received an anonymous letter.

There was only one line of words on the letter: "Zhang Zengjie is in Macau ×××".

Sha Danxiong was overjoyed, but he still analyzed the situation calmly.

He only brought four men with him, fearing that if too many people went, they would attract the attention of local gangs in Macau.

After finding Zhang Zengjie's hiding place,
He rented a house opposite this man and kept observing for five days.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, there was a movement on the other side
······
The next day, Jiu Wenlong received a call.

The other party claimed that he had caught the person he wanted.

They also agreed to meet at Shek O to exchange money and inspect the goods.

Jiu Wenlong told Fang Hexuan the news.

Fang Hexuan called Xiang Huayan and asked him to arrange twenty people to be on standby.

Then he went to HSBC with Jiu Wenlong to withdraw 200 million Hong Kong dollars in cash.

At nine o'clock that evening, Jiu Wenlong drove a car, followed by twenty thugs from the Sun Yee On.
Go to Shek O.

The meeting between the two parties was very polite, and there was no black-on-black action as imagined.

Sha Danxiong counted the money, happily shook hands with Jiu Wenlong and said:

"Mr. Fang is such a straightforward person. I'll leave you my phone number. If you have such good things in the future, remember to find me. I'll give him a 10% discount."

"My friend, I have never seen you, and you have never seen me. I don't even know Fang Sheng, so don't talk nonsense!"

"Haha! That's right, we've never met before!"

"Now that I have the money, I need you to take him to the sea to swim."

"No problem, this is the last step, after that I can go home and pick up girls."

Jiu Wenlong did not allow the Sun Yee On people to continue following him.

He boarded the boat of Sha Danxiong and his gang alone.

When the ship sailed off the coast of Hong Kong, Zhang Zengjie, who was still shivering in the cabin, was carried onto the deck.

Sha Danxiong's men began to tie sacks on him.

Jiu Wenlong lifted the sack himself. It was quite heavy and should be filled with cement and stones.

He then tore off Zhang Zengjie's blindfold and the rag in his mouth.
Let the other person not suffer so much before dying.

The sixth of the "Thirteen Tigers of Tsz Wan Shan" was so frightened that he couldn't even stand up straight.
He cried heart-wrenchingly and kept begging for mercy from the people around him.

After the blindfold was removed, he saw clearly who kidnapped him.
He was so desperate that he didn't even have time to cry or howl.

Sha Dan Xiong, it’s actually Sha Dan Xiong, 14K!

Who else betrayed him?
Brother Xi?

At this time, the assassin Zhang Zengjie,

It seems that he has forgotten life and death.
I asked myself over and over in my mind - who is it?
Jiu Wenlong looked at the man who had fallen into a daze.
Suddenly, I felt a surge of emotion in my heart.

Is it easy to tell whether you are mixed up in the underworld or are mixed up by the underworld?
Once you enter the world of martial arts, you have no choice!

"Pfft!"

The dark sea was splashed with white waves,
It will take more than ten seconds before you can see bubbles coming out.

It's almost August.

But Jiuwenlong felt cold all over.
