Chapter 140: The Way of Controlling People

~13 min read 2,417 words

That night.

Leading one hundred Hell Knights armed with AKs, Chen Jiajun arrived at He Jiashan.

The He Family were well-traveled and knowledgeable, but they were still taken aback to see such a group of men brazenly carrying AKs to protect them.

"Dad, why don't we just send people to capture those guys? Wouldn't that solve it?"

Already thirty years old, He Tianbao looked at problems quite simply.

He Xin rolled his eyes immediately, and he looked toward Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun smiled and answered for the young master of the He Family: "Young Master He, Xin Ge's meaning is to drive this group out of the Gambling Hall; just capturing them won't solve the problem. Because even if they are captured, their Majai will still cause trouble at the Gambling Hall.

Therefore, only by killing can the problem be solved."

"How many people have to be killed? Wouldn't it be enough to just finish off a few of them?" He Tianbao continued to ask naively.

"Some time ago, in that clash with the Sun Yee On and the Hung Lok, I killed about a thousand people before I killed them into submission."

Chen Jiajun answered with a smile.

He Tianbao's heart tightened, and He Tian'er covered her mouth, not letting herself let out a gasp.

"Hahaha, just joking!"

"This is a society ruled by law now; how could such a thing happen."

Chen Jiajun saw He Tian'er's reaction and laughed loudly as he spoke.

He Tian'er immediately rolled her eyes and said: "I knew it, big talker!"

"I'm warning you, I call your old man Xin Ge, you have to call me Uncle no matter what, show some respect."

Chen Jiajun feigned annoyance and immediately looked elsewhere, pretending not to have seen anything.

At another part of the Zhuangyuan.

He Tian'er's biological mother made a phone call, "It's me."

"Second Wife."

Hearing the voice in the receiver, Bengyaju immediately felt a sense of guilt.

She said sternly: "I ask you, are you trying to get my husband killed?"

"How could that be!"

"Heaven and earth are my witness, Second Wife! I know in my heart how you have treated me!"

"I, A-Ju, am not a person who doesn't know how to repay kindness!"

Bengyaju immediately denied it flatly; it turned out that the Second Wife was Bengyaju's biggest backer.

She sneered in her heart: "If it's not that, then good. Besides, what did Dalao Jun talk about with you all?"

Bengyaju immediately cried out in grievance: "Second Wife, this Dalao Jun is really not a thing; he said he wants fifty percent of the profits from my Gambling Hall! Can you talk to Xin Ge? Otherwise, we won't have anything to eat!"

She let out a series of cold laughs, "Hehe, A-Ju, have your wings hardened? Do you think you can stand on your own now!

I ask you, did you agree to help Lei Gong of the Sanlian Gang to obtain the Gambling License together?

If you want people not to know, you shouldn't have done it. You can deny it, but think it through yourself; when the time comes, I won't be able to save you!"

"I'm sorry, Second Wife, we were just talking about it with our mouths!"

Bengyaju was covered in cold sweat and immediately chose to confess.

She continued to sneer: "This kind of thing cannot be spoken of recklessly. Now Dalao Jun is in the Zhuangyuan; you only have one chance, grasp it yourself. Don't lose your life for the sake of some petty profits."

After speaking, she hung up the phone.

On the other side, the mobile phone in Bengyaju's hand hung down powerlessly.

Shuifang Liao immediately asked: "A-Ju, what did the Second Wife say?"

"Our business with the Sanlian Gang has been found out by Xin Ge, and it is very likely that Dalao Jun has evidence in his hands."

After a moment of silence, Bengyaju told him the situation.

At this time, he had also come up with a countermeasure. He immediately grabbed his clothes, "I have to go to the He Family once; you are not allowed to tell anyone. Otherwise, we will all lose our lives."

Bengyaju knew deeply that He Xin was definitely going to take action this time.

Bengyaju could not tell Jieshi Wei and Mo Dingping about the He Family's Second Wife tipping him off.

If the three of them went together, it would only intensify He Xin's anger. In the end, the three of them would still be swept out the door and then hacked to death on the street by Dalao Jun.

Only if he, Bengyaju, went alone, kowtowed to admit his mistake, and served tea, plus having the He Family's Second Wife help speak a few words, could he save his life.

As for Jieshi Wei and Mo Dingping, Bengyaju couldn't be bothered to care.

Arriving at the He Family.

The entrance was filled with live ammunition, and the burly bodyguards, averaging one meter nine in height, all had fierce and bloodthirsty eyes.

He was brought in by the Butler, and upon arriving at the backyard, he saw such a scene.

Dalao Jun was chatting with He Tian'er and He Tianbao.

He Xin hurriedly lowered his head and coughed. Hearing Chen Jiajun bragging more and more excessively, he couldn't hold it in anymore: "Ahem!"

He signaled for He Tianbao to serve the food quickly.

He Tian'er immediately asked: "Old man, is what he said true?"

He Xin was getting on in years and naturally couldn't out-brag a young person, but he was embarrassed to leave, so he had to nod repeatedly: "True, true, true."

Bengyaju looked again at the shyness and rosy flush on He Tian'er's face, her eyes shifting... could it be, could it be that the two of them had already...

"Sir, Mr. Yin is here." The Butler spoke up.

Everyone looked toward the sound, and Bengyaju braced himself and walked forward quickly: "Xin Ge!"

"A-Ju, you're here!"

Pushing the wheelchair of the He Family's First Wife, A-Mei, he walked out of the Zhuangyuan, his tone flat, and nothing unusual could be seen on his face.

Chen Jiajun slowly put down his wine glass; he could vaguely guess Bengyaju's background, which was the biological mother of He Tian'er.

It seems this is a scene of the inner court interfering in state affairs.

He Xin turned his head away, not looking at Bengyaju, clearly not wanting to pay him any mind.

Bengyaju walked in front of He Xin, lowered his head, and said, "Xin Ge, it was me, Bengyaju, who was muddled; I was wrong!"

"Where were you wrong?"

He Xin shouted sternly; the look in his eyes that wanted to kill someone could not be hidden at all.

"I was wrong to collude with Lei Gong of the Sanlian Gang and harbor delusions of plotting for the Gambling License!" Bengyaju was quite straightforward, admitting it directly.

"Bastard!"

"Xin Ge gave you food, gave you clothes, damn your mother, you actually colluded with Lei Gong of the Sanlian Gang; look at yourself, are you even qualified!"

"You ungrateful wretch!"

Just as Bengyaju finished speaking, He Xin's assistant A-Gao grabbed a red wine bottle from the table and smashed it directly onto Bengyaju's head.

"Bang!"

The red wine bottle shattered instantly, enough to show the great strength of A-Gao.

Wine spilled everywhere.

The shards of the wine bottle splashed about immediately; Bengyaju was drenched in wine, his head dripping with blood.

Bengyaju was quite tough; his body swayed, but he did not fall to the ground.

"Bastard!"

A-Gao was emotionally agitated, looking around, wanting to crack Bengyaju's head open again.

"A-Gao!"

He Xin stopped A-Gao's actions and looked coldly at Bengyaju: "Bengyaju! Logically speaking, the gate faces the sky and everyone goes their own way; you want to follow whoever you want, I have no right to interfere.

But since you came over tonight, I will give you face and not kick you out."

"However, the current General Manager of the casino is Chen Jiajun; you should say whatever you have to say to him."

After speaking, He Xin stepped forward to push A-Mei's wheelchair: "There are too many mosquitoes outside; let's go to the inner room."

Then, he said to He Tian'er: "Tian'er, go inside!"

He Xin handed the choice to Chen Jiajun and said coldly: "A-Ju, you had better plead well with A-Jun!"

This sentence was said to Bengyaju, but in reality, it was feeding lines to Chen Jiajun.

After the few of them returned to the room, Chen Jiajun handed He Tianbao a Cigar, looked at A-Gao, and dismissed him: "A-Gao, go pour two cups of tea."

A-Gao looked at He Tianbao, and He Tianbao nodded and said:

"A-Gao, you go inside first."

"Yes, Young Master, Mr. Chen."

As He Xin's close assistant, A-Gao also entered the inner room.

With no one else around, except for Chen Jiajun, He Tianbao, and his Doll Soldier slaves, there was only Bengyaju.

Chen Jiajun smoked his Cigar, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said slowly: "You did something wrong yourself, yet you still dragged out the elders of the Haoma Gang to make them pressure me?

Datian Er, Er Ye is already seventy or eighty years old; do you want him to help you shoulder the burden?"

Accompanied by his slow tone, an extreme sense of oppression bore down on Bengyaju.

"Thump!"

Bengyaju could no longer bear it and immediately knelt on both knees, "I was wrong, Jun Ge!"

"When you're out in the streets, you must be willing to take responsibility for your actions."

"If you're wrong, you must admit it; if you're going to get beaten, you must stand firm!"

"You lot didn't tell the truth to Feizai Kun and Xiao Jingzhao."

"Are you trying to bet the entire Haoma Gang and play to the end with me? This time I have prepared one thousand guns, ready to hang your whole family on the bridge."

Chen Jiajun bent down to look at Bengyaju and said truthfully.

He Tianbao felt a tightness in his heart; he knew the reason his father left him behind was to let him come into contact with underworld affairs, so he wouldn't lack experience in the future.

Bengyaju kowtowed repeatedly and said: "Jun Ge, spare my life; from now on I will follow your lead in everything, 50% of the rake, I agree!"

"Good, since you've said so."

Chen Jiajun nodded, waved his hand at Dumu, and said: "How much bounty did you put out, who accepted it, and who were the targets?"

Dumu brought over the Recording Pen and pressed the record button.

Bengyaju was terrified and immediately shook his head: "Jun Ge, Jun Ge, I didn't participate, I didn't participate."

Chen Jiajun said expressionlessly: "Oh? Not telling the truth?"

"Jun Ge, it has nothing to do with me! I really didn't, I didn't do it!"

"I don't know anything!"

Bengyaju chose to resist to the end.

Confession brings severity, resistance brings leniency.

Besides, if he spoke, and Jieshi Wei and Mo Dingping managed to escape disaster, would they let him go?

"Don't dirty Xin Ge's house; drag him out."

Chen Jiajun naturally heard that Bengyaju was not telling the truth, and he looked at Tian Yangsheng.

As Doll Soldiers who grew up on the battlefield, the seven Tian brothers naturally knew some methods of interrogation and torture.

Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangyi took hemp rope and stepped forward; one pressed on Bengyaju's neck while the other wrapped the rope around him, and Bengyaju immediately let out a pig-like scream.

"Help!"

"Xin Ge, help!"

"Second Wife! Help!"

"I was wrong, I won't dare do it again!"

Dumu stuffed a smelly sock into his mouth, Lao E wrapped it with tape, and Bengyaju could only make muffled sounds.

Half an hour later.

In an abandoned Warehouse in Macau, Bengyaju's face was already covered in blood and filth, looking extremely miserable.

Dumu held a large sledgehammer: "Who took the bounty! Who were the targets?"

"Brother Dumu, I really didn't, I didn't!" Bengyaju shook his head weakly.

Tian Yangsheng placed a cushion down, and Dumu swung the hammer down.

"Ah!!!"

Bengyaju let out a painful howl, but he still didn't forget to defend himself and beg for mercy: "Let me go, let me go, I really didn't!"

"A Jun, it's already been half an hour, is it possible they really didn't do it?"

As the eldest young master of the He Family, He Tianbao couldn't bear to watch, and he also felt that Chen Jiajun's methods were a bit too cruel.

Chen Jiajun shook his head, his gaze landing on a pair of pliers: "Mouth so tough? Pry it open!"

"Brother Jun, Brother Jun!"

"I didn't, I really didn't!"

"Woooooo~"

Seeing the pliers in Tian Yangsheng's hand, Bengyaju immediately understood what this devil wanted to do, but Dumu grabbed his jaw, preventing him from making any sound, and he could only struggle violently while watching the pliers reach into his mouth.

"Ahhhhh!"

"A front tooth was pulled out!"

Bengyaju was in agony, his mouth full of blood.

Chen Jiajun's expression showed no fluctuation: "A Ju, I really want to help you, but if you don't tell the truth, there is nothing I can do."

"Ring-a-ling~"

At this moment, He Tianbao's mobile phone rang, and he answered it: "Hello, Second Mother."

The caller asked: "Has Bengyaju confessed yet?"

"Not yet, Second Mother."

He Tianbao immediately walked to the side to take the call, looking at Bengyaju and then at Chen Jiajun.

"Tianbao, you have grown up. Let me say one more thing to teach you how to manage people.

Bengyaju cannot avoid this physical suffering; A Jun clearly doesn't want to let him go, but if you step in to save Bengyaju now, he will be loyal to you in the future and be filled with gratitude." She spoke the logic softly.

Currently, the He Family had two male heirs: one was He Tianbao, and the other son was only three years old.

In any case, her three-year-old son could not replace the status of the eldest son of the He Family.

Under these circumstances, it was natural to cultivate one's own loyal faction.

This kid Bengyaju was sharp in his work, and she didn't want a Majai she had worked so hard to cultivate to just die like this.

"Second Mother, I understand." He Tianbao nodded, seemingly understanding yet not quite.
