Chapter 60: Just a little something, that's enough!
When the Jiangzhe merchants and Green Gang thugs first came to Hong Kong Island, they caused quite a stir.
These conglomerate bosses who didn't join the bald man as island warriors broke the record for car sales on the day they arrived in Hong Kong, selling over a hundred cars in a single day, severely intimidating the local bullies.
At that time, the most prominent figure in the Green Gang was a man named Li Caifa, who opened a large nightclub in Hong Kong Island. He even invited Du Yuesheng to endorse the club and won over many so-called celebrities, gentlemen, and upper-class figures, directly overshadowing the local large nightclubs.
At that time, the Green Gang members enjoyed a period of good times.
Du Yuesheng was nearing his end, and with him, the Green Gang was also destroyed.
Now, under the relentless pursuit and suppression of local gangs, the Green Gang is on the verge of extinction.
With the Green Gang gone, the Number Gang took its place, becoming the most unpopular triad in Hong Kong Island, the No. 1 in the south.
Although Fu Yixing was not afraid of any controversy caused by joining forces with the Number Gang, after all, the one he was dealing with was Dong Fuhe, whose reputation was about the same as that of the Number Gang.
The reason is that Dong Fuhe's people are too ruthless and selfish, showing no respect for other gangs. Many gangs are dissatisfied with Dong Fuhe.
The various gangs surrounding Fu Yixing now are all not on good terms with Dong Fuhe.
But if we really want to join forces, we'll have to pay more!
Wanglaoji wouldn't do anything that doesn't bring them benefits!
"Uncle Naji, what do you mean?"
Ge Dalong turned around and threw the question back to Wanglaoji.
"Don't say it's my idea. It depends on what you mean. I don't think Brother Ge would take this small gesture as something he's embarrassed about. Anyway, that's all. We're all people of the underworld. If he's shown his sincerity, that's enough."
Wanglaoji is slippery and won't take the bait. He doesn't know where Ge Dalongtou's bottom line is, so offering a price that's too high or too low is not appropriate.
If the offer is too high, Ge Da Longtou might not be willing; if it's too low, then I'll be at a disadvantage!
So Wanglaoji said a long string of words, a string of words long enough for foreigners to understand Chinese.
"Uncle Ji, I think we should be clearer about this. How much would it be enough for me to show my appreciation?"
Ge Dalong looked at Wang Laoji and cursed the old fox in his heart. "He's already childless, and he's still so greedy for money! Does he even have anywhere to spend all that money? It'll all end up benefiting outsiders!"
"Brother Ge, as you can see, my family has also grown, and life isn't easy. Two half-grown boys are eating me alive; raising children is tough. Like I said, you wouldn't turn a small token of appreciation into something you're embarrassed to do, would you?"
Wanglaoji has pushed the issue back to them again.
Ge Dalong gritted his teeth and announced a number.
Wang Laoji remained noncommittal, and the two sides went back and forth in a manner similar to that of Boss Huo and Xiang Qian, starting to bargain. However, there was "background music" on this side—the sound of Ma Shih-hao and Ma Shih-hai eating, which added a bit of tension to the negotiation.
The private room was well soundproofed, and the negotiations between the two sides went smoothly. After more than an hour, both sides had almost reached an agreement.
They offered enough money to persuade Boss Huo to agree to act.
Ge Dalong also offered enough benefits to persuade Wang Laoji to join forces, and both sides came out of the private room with great interest!
Then, there was another silence.
No one expected to see so many people in this setting.
Ge Da Longtou from the Number Gang!
Fu Yi Xing's Wang Lao Ji!
New record's money-making scheme!
And Mr. Huo, who considers himself a businessman, and Zhang Guohao.
It was purely coincidental that the four groups met here; they were all so engrossed in the negotiations that they forgot to check if anyone was outside before leaving.
In my excitement, I left home too quickly and bumped into him without warning.
"Hey, Ge Dalongtou, long time no see."
"Boss Huo, it's been a long time!"
"Uncle Ji, you're still in good health!"
"A dragon head, a rare sight indeed."
After a long silence, the representatives of the four forces began to greet each other.
These people were chatting, but who knows what they were thinking? Their eyes betrayed a lot more.
In particular, Ge Dalongtou and Xiang Longtou share similar life experiences and have received the same orders.
As a result, both of them chose to deceive the orders from above, exchanging glances back and forth several times.
"Go ahead and do it! Boss Huo is right here!"
"Why aren't you doing anything?"
"I'm busy right now, I have a club conflict going on over there!"
"Who are you trying to fool? Club conflict? Did you stage this yourself?!"
"Don't talk about me, did you also want to put on an act when you met with Boss Huo?"
"It's none of your business!"
"Hmph, let's not talk about each other!"
"Then you go your way, and I'll go mine!"
Ge Dalong and Xiang Dalong exchanged glances and gestures, conveying messages as if they were transmitting radio intelligence—a silent exchange.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Boss Huo and Wang Laoji was much more normal. After all, Wang Laoji had helped Boss Huo before, so there was some goodwill between them.
"Uncle Ji, long time no see. How was the mountain delicacy I sent you before?"
"Boss Huo, you're too kind. That stuff is really good. By the way, this is my godson, Ma Shihai. Ma Shihao, come and call him Uncle Huo."
"These two boys are quite good-looking, with chubby faces and a lot of energy."
"Mr. Huo, let's have tea sometime!"
"Okay, Uncle Ji, I'll bring you some good tea another day."
Boss Huo chatted with Wang Laoji, occasionally glancing at the two bosses playing "radio".
Zhang Guohao also looked at Ge Dalongtou, chuckled, and without saying a word, gestured with his hand, showing that the distance between his thumb and forefinger was exactly the length of a machine gun bullet.
You definitely can't make a move here. Every profession has its rules, and you can't fight in a place like this. Otherwise, you'll break the rules and get targeted by other forces.
However, if it really came down to it, Zhang Guohao was confident that he could take down Ge Dalongtou within thirty seconds.
Ge Dalongtou is quite clever now. He hasn't made a move or caused any trouble, so it's good to leave him alone. A little provocation with machine gun bullets will make the old guy keep cowering.
When Ge Dalongtou saw Zhang Guohao's gesture, his body trembled for no reason, and a layer of white sweat broke out on his back!
It really is Cheung Kwok-ho! He's the one who "tattooed" himself! The only guess we could have was Cheung Kwok-ho!
I witnessed Zhang Guohao's skills that day!
But Ge Da Longtou dared not say or do anything! To take action would mean certain death!
The other three noticed Ge Dalong's body language, but no one spoke, and they tacitly began to say goodbye to each other.
