Chapter 113: Negotiations and Showdowns

"My eyes don't deceive me; I estimate you'll be on the Hong Kong government's commendation list this year."

Speaking to this point, Chen Guozhong paused: "I believe you are a smart man. Because of the incident in Central, our Police have already diverted manpower. I hope you can handle the Hong Le matter properly and not make too much of a scene."

"Alright, enough nonsense. I'm going back to rest; I have to work overtime tonight to finish some paperwork."

"Wait."

Chen Jiajun called out to Chen Guozhong, who was about to stand up and leave, and handed him a business card: "After you retire, if you need any help, just say the word."

"Guojun Property Group, Chairman?"

Chen Guozhong took the card, glanced at it, and put it in his pocket: "You are the Hongxing Dragon Head. Even if I retire, I'll be a retired Police officer; why would I look for you? Besides, I get a headache just seeing you, haha."

"I don't like seeing you Police either. Let me see you out." Chen Jiajun stood up and escorted Chen Guozhong into the elevator.

Chen Guozhong waved at Chen Jiajun.

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

After this parting, there was no telling when they would meet again.

Chen Jiajun knew this; the Anti-Triad Unit Senior Inspector Chen Guozhong was already at the end of his rope.

He might not be a good Police officer, but he was absolutely worthy of respect.

Chen Jiajun called Xing Shu: "Follow the plan from last night and begin. Tonight, the Hong Le Society will definitely make a move too!"

"Understood."

After notifying Xing Shu, Chen Jiajun called Piao Ge of the Hong Le Society: "I say, you Hong Le lot are truly arrogant. You didn't even show your faces at Jiang Tiansheng's funeral."

"Jing Jun, screw your mother! You said you'd wipe out my Hong Le Society within seven days? Even when Jiang Tiansheng was alive, he wouldn't have dared to spout such nonsense!"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's voice, Piao Ge, holding a thick cigar between his fingers, cursed loudly.

At this moment, inside Hong Le Piao Ge's villa, all the core members of Hong Le were present.

"What? You didn't show up at Jiang Tiansheng's funeral, feeling guilty? Since you aren't coming and won't give me an explanation, then we in Hongxing will definitely take action! To avenge him!"

Chen Jiajun gritted his teeth, having fully entered his role.

The most brilliant trick in deception is to deceive oneself.

Although Jiang Tiansheng was taken out by Lao Yu, who else but Piao Ge was closest to Jiang Tiansheng at the time?

And who else but Piao Ge had been secretly colluding with Measureless and Horse King Sword these past few days, trying to get those two to defect to Hong Le?

It would be a wonder if the Hongxing boys didn't treat Piao Ge as the murderer!

"Let's just come out and talk about it. I'm innocent in this matter; let's sit down and settle this clearly."

After a moment of silence, Piao Ge feigned weakness.

"Fine! Since you want to talk, I'll give you the chance. Where shall we meet?"

Chen Jiajun knew full well that Hong Le Piao Ge arranging to meet him meant he must have made preparations.

Yet he agreed anyway.

This stemmed from a strong confidence in his own strength and the strength of his brothers!

If Piao Ge wanted to take him out, he couldn't do it during the negotiation, nor before it; he could only do it after the negotiation ended, nearby, or on his way back.

He believed that Lao Yu, currently lying in ambush near Piao Ge, would be able to find this group and deal with them!

"Ten o'clock tonight, Luyu Tea House in Central. I've invited Pan Laoda of Changyi and Brother Deng of Wo Ling Sheng."

Piao Ge's face showed wild joy, thinking to himself that young people really couldn't keep their cool, and he immediately reported the location.

"Fine, I'll give you face. See you there tonight."

"See you there."

After hanging up the phone, Hong Le Piao Ge's expression turned grave, and he called out: "A Sheng."

"Boss," Shenshi Sheng said immediately.

Piao Ge said in a deep voice: "Today, the Police have already diverted a large amount of manpower to Kowloon and the New Territories. Are the gunmen you hired all ready?"

"Boss, don't worry! They are all retired soldiers, and I even bought them sniper rifles. I guarantee Jing Jun won't be able to escape tonight!"

Shenshi Sheng smiled and patted the briefcase in his hand.

"David." Piao Ge nodded, his gaze sweeping over Red Pole Zhou Dawei.

"Boss, I'm here." Zhou Dawei stood up.

Piao Ge said: "You go contact Chen Yaoxing of Xinji. We move tonight. You take men to attack Causeway Bay, and Fei Quan, you go with David."

"Yes, Boss!"

"Understood!"

Fei Quan also stood up, feeling his blood boiling.

"Shen Deng!" Piao Ge announced another name.

Shen Deng stood up: "I'm here."

"Tonight, Wanchai is up to you. You have always been the best fighter in our Hong Le Society; this toughest nut to crack is handed to you!"

Piao Ge patted Shen Deng on the shoulder.

"Boss, we have made full preparations, don't worry, there won't be any mistakes!"

Shen Deng replied; he had been preparing for this battle for seven full days.

"Good!" Piao Ge then looked at De Shu: "A De, go see Horse King Sword and Measureless immediately. Tell them to join the action tonight as well. Also, call Fat Li and Baji to see what their intentions are."

De Shu nodded silently.

Piao Ge stood up and looked out the window, leaning against the railing: "Whether our Hong Le can rank among the top five in Hong Kong depends on tonight!"

Half an hour after Chen Jiajun and Piao Ge made their appointment, the news had already spread throughout the entire underworld!

Hongxing Dragon Head Jing Jun and Hongle Dragon Head Piao Ge have an appointment to negotiate at Luyu Tea House in Central at ten o'clock tonight; Deng Bo of the elder generation of Wo Ling Sheng and Changyi Dragon Head Pan Laoda will also attend.

Admiralty, Hong Kong Royal Police Headquarters.

Conference room of the Central Bank Robbery Task Force.

A Police Constable rushed in and whispered into the ear of Hu Zhuoren, Chief Superintendent of the Anti-Triad Unit: "Hu SIR, we have received intelligence that Hongxing's Chen Jiajun and Hongle's Piao Ge are negotiating tonight. We also received intelligence that both sides have secretly gathered their forces, and they may be organizing a massive gang showdown of over ten thousand people on Hong Kong Island."

It has been a long time since such a grand scene has appeared.

Hu Zhuoren interrupted him, his tone sounding very displeased, and said:

"Since they are going to Luyu Tea House to negotiate, let Inspector Liao Zhizong of the Central District Anti-Triad Unit go over there."

"If they can't reach an agreement, let them hack each other; let them hack until there's a winner! Arrest them when you should, sentence them when you should, just get the body bags and nylon ropes ready!"

Hu Zhuoren's tone was exceptionally overbearing.

Letting several triads fight each other, consuming their core strength and increasing the casualties of their fighters, is something Hu Zhuoren is happy to see.

After all, if the core strength is not consumed, the major triads are very hard to crack.

Of course, this kind of consumption needs to have its water temperature controlled.

Mount Davis.

A Mercedes-Benz car stopped; the red-hot favorite of the Hongle Society, Shenshi Sheng, dressed in a suit and wearing sunglasses, followed by two Majai.

After walking about a hundred meters, Shenshi Sheng knocked on a wooden hut, three short knocks and one long.

A burly man dressed in old-fashioned clothes with bloodthirsty eyes, like a beast ready to devour someone at any moment, pulled open the wooden door; seeing it was Shenshi Sheng, he said: "Come in."

Entering the wooden hut, because the doors and windows were tightly shut, the lighting inside was not good; Shenshi Sheng took off his sunglasses and smelled a nauseating odor.

Inside the wooden hut, a dozen burly men in similar old-fashioned clothes were sitting everywhere, wiping the handguns and AK47s in their hands as if caressing lovers.

Shenshi Sheng did not mind, found a place to sit down, took out a photograph, then took a cigarette for himself, and handed one to the man from before:

"At ten o'clock tonight, you hide near Luyu Tea House. After the negotiation ends and Jing Jun leaves Luyu Tea House, you make your move. After you finish the job, return directly to Mount Davis; I have already arranged a fishing boat."

"Here is one million."

Extending two fingers and waving them, a Majai placed a briefcase on the table.

"No problem, right?"

The burly man took the photograph and looked at the person on it: "The Hongxing Dragon Head, 1 million is probably not enough, right?"

Shenshi Sheng revealed a smile that said 'as expected' and said: "This 1 million is a deposit; after the matter is done, there is a balance of four million, which I have already placed on the fishing boat."

"Remember, if the balance is not paid in full, we will not board the boat; you better be careful when that time comes."

The burly man closed the briefcase.

Shenshi Sheng smoked his cigarette and said: "Your brothers are risking their lives for me; I won't earn this kind of conscience-stricken money."

"I'm leaving."

Shenshi Sheng put on his sunglasses and left Mount Davis.

Lao Yu, who had been tailing Shenshi Sheng, found a secluded corner and called Big Brother: "Big Brother, Hongle has already found gunmen tonight. I have already found the whereabouts of this group of gunmen. What should we do now?"

"Where are you?"

"Mount Davis."

"What are they planning to do?"

"..."

"I know now. You stay there! Remember to find an appropriate time to take them out; you must not let Hongle know about this in advance."

"I understand."

"Have you finished the task I ordered you to do?"

"Big Brother, I have already placed the cyanide in Piao Ge's villa. As long as the police make a move, they will definitely be able to find the evidence. Also, there is a lot of Laundry Powder in Piao Ge's villa."

"Well done!"
