327. Chapter 327: A Triad Society is Also a Business

"Making friends? Sure." Su Xingbai laughed and said, "Then let me see how much capability you, this friend of mine, actually has."

Luo Wen nodded and said, "Of course, you will see it very soon. I will contact you tomorrow."

"Alright. I'll wait for your news," Su Xingbai said with a smile.

After Luo Wen left, Su Xingbai did not rush to contact Chen Jiajun; he wanted to see what exactly this Luo Wen was up to.

Sure enough, the next day, Luo Wen came knocking again, but this time he was carrying a suitcase.

Su Xingbai looked at Luo Wen with a suspicious expression and said, "This is your solution?"

"That's right, this is it." As he spoke, Luo Wen placed the case in front of Su Xingbai.

Su Xingbai had his men open it to take a look and discovered that it was filled with bags of Laundry Powder.

This immediately caused Su Xingbai's pupils to constrict. He drew his gun, pointed it at Luo Wen's head, and said viciously, "Who exactly are you? Are you an Undercover for the Police? Or were you sent by La Jiang?"

One must know that selling Laundry Powder in Hong Kong is a much more serious matter than Ketamine.

Once you get involved with this stuff, the Police will bite onto you and never let go.

That is why Su Xingbai had such a strong reaction.

Even with a gun pointed at his head, Luo Wen remained calm and said, "I told you not to be so agitated. Don't you want to hear my solution?"

"If I were an Undercover or someone sent by La Jiang, a team from the Narcotics Division would have already stormed in the moment this case was opened."

Su Xingbai gave a look to his men, and soon someone went out to scout.

A moment later, the underling ran back in and said, "Boss, there are no Police outside, and no one is lying in ambush."

Luo Wen spread his hands and said, "Now can we have a proper talk?"

Su Xingbai put his gun away and then said coldly, "Speak. What do you want to do by bringing Laundry Powder to me?"

"Helping you resolve your crisis," Luo Wen said quite naturally. "Since your Ketamine isn't selling as well as La Jiang's, why not think of another way? For example, mixing Laundry Powder into that Ketamine?"

"This way, it becomes more addictive and packs a bigger punch. When the time comes, those little junkies will only come to you for their supply."

Su Xingbai sneered and said, "Do you take me for a fool? Wouldn't the cost go up after mixing in Laundry Powder?"

"Given your current situation, can you take down La Jiang without doing this? Once you have unified the market, won't the pricing be up to you?" Luo Wen then revealed a smile and said, "Besides, I'm giving you this batch for free."

Su Xingbai was a very clever person to begin with; upon hearing the other party's approach, he immediately knew what he was trying to do.

Thus, he sneered and said, "You lot certainly have a good scheme, planning to trade this little bit of stuff for the Hong Kong market?"

Luo Wen was not angry at being exposed; instead, he smiled at Su Xingbai and said, "Does Boss Su intend to work under Mo Yilie for his whole life? Once you control the supply channels, wouldn't the position of the next Dragon Head be within your grasp? I believe that by then, those uncles of Yee Fung will also fully support you, right?"

Su Xingbai stroked his chin and said, "Don't forget, Mo Yilie also holds a channel in his hands. My foundation in Yee Fung is shallow; I might not be able to outfight them."

Luo Wen smiled with a strange expression and said, "What if I could cut off Mo Yilie's channel?"

"Oh? You have that kind of ability?" Su Xingbai's heart stirred, and he asked curiously.

But Luo Wen refused to continue, instead playing coy: "We have only just started to get to know each other. Later on, you will know how much capability I have."

"But the most important thing right now is that you, Boss Su, should switch from defense to offense."

Su Xingbai did not refuse Luo Wen's good intentions and accepted the suitcase of Laundry Powder.

However, after the other party left, he disguised himself, changed his clothes, and went to the Titan Group.

After communicating with the front desk, he took the elevator to the top floor to Chen Jiajun's office.

"How do you have the time to come see me today?" Chen Jiajun looked at Su Xingbai with some curiosity.

Ever since Su Xingbai rose to power, there had been quite a few people watching him.

If it wasn't necessary, Su Xingbai usually contacted Han Bin, who would then notify Chen Jiajun.

But today, Su Xingbai came to see him in person, which made Chen Jiajun feel a bit strange.

Su Xingbai said helplessly, "What else could it be? It's because of my situation with La Jiang."

"Oh?" Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You wouldn't be unable to hold on so soon, would you? That doesn't sound like the Mike I know."

Su Xingbai said flatly, "I don't have any good solutions for that guy La Jiang for the time being, but yesterday someone actually came to offer me a plan, intending to help me defeat La Jiang and swallow up the entire Ketamine market in Hong Kong."

"Hm?" Chen Jiajun looked at Su Xingbai with some surprise and said, "Who is it?"

Su Xingbai spread his hands and said, "I thought it was your man. So I specifically came to ask you, Boss."

Chen Jiajun stroked his chin and said, "A third party that suddenly popped up? This is interesting. How does the other party plan to help you defeat La Jiang?"

Su Xingbai sneered and said, "This guy taught me to mix Laundry Powder into the Ketamine so the junkies get addicted faster. That way, La Jiang naturally won't be able to compete with me."

"Hah, the prices of Ketamine and Laundry Powder are not the same; that would increase costs significantly." Although Chen Jiajun didn't deal in these things, he was very clear about their prices.

After all, one must know oneself and the enemy to win every battle.

"This guy said he would cover all the extra costs. He said it was a big gift for me, as a welcoming present," Su Xingbai said dismissively. "Even a fool can see that this guy has issues, and he's acting all mysterious, too."

Chen Jiajun thought for a moment and said, "A sugar-coated bullet, then. Since that's the case, just keep him on the hook. I'll have someone look into this guy's background."

"Understood, Boss." Su Xingbai nodded.

After finishing this topic, Chen Jiajun specifically asked Su Xingbai about the Ketamine that Mo Yilie imported from Thailand.

That guy imported five tons from Thailand; he certainly couldn't distribute it all at once.

Speaking of this, Su Xingbai explained the general process to Chen Jiajun.

"After Mo Yilie transports the goods back from Thailand, he puts them in his large warehouse. But even La Jiang and I don't know where this warehouse is. He has handed the management of the warehouse to his mistress, Ding Min. So every time La Jiang and I need to distribute goods, we have to contact Ding Min."

Hearing Su Xingbai's account, Chen Jiajun couldn't help but sneer: "An old fox is an old fox. Even if the warehouse is raided, he can still keep himself clean."

Su Xingbai nodded and continued, "Every time, we use a specific code to get goods from Ding Min, and after she receives it, she replies with the time and location for us. This woman is very meticulous; the transaction location is different every time."

"She will put the goods in a private car and let our men drive the car and the goods away together. Then we drive the car back to our own warehouse, let our men break it down, and hand it to the Majai outside to distribute."

"Our warehouses are all short-term rentals; once the goods are distributed, we move to other warehouses. This prevents the warehouse from being raided, and even if the Police discover some clues, by the time they find it, the place is already empty."

After hearing Su Xingbai explain the entire process, Chen Jiajun had a rough idea of the situation in his heart.

The key to this matter still lies with Mo Yilie's mistress, Ding Min.

If this woman is handled, the subsequent problems will be much simpler.

Seeing Chen Jiajun fall into deep thought, Su Xingbai tentatively asked, "Boss, are you targeting Mo Yilie because this guy sells Ketamine?"

This was a question Su Xingbai had wanted to ask for a long time; he did not understand why a Big Boss like Chen Jiajun would care about such matters, as this was clearly something the Police should be doing.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You don't understand. The location of Hong Kong is very special; it is both a financial center and a port radiating to many major Asian countries, while backed by a terrifying market with over a billion people. If arms and Laundry Powder were allowed to run rampant in Hong Kong, what do you think Hong Kong would become?"

Although Su Xingbai was clever, the concept of the big picture was not something that could be cultivated in a day or two.

Therefore, he looked at Chen Jiajun with a face full of confusion.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Do you know how much money I made from the stock market just by relying on finance and the '87 stock market crash?"

Su Xingbai shook his head; after all, he had not yet dabbled in finance.

Chen Jiajun held up three fingers and said indifferently, "Thirty billion."

Upon hearing this figure mentioned by Chen Jiajun, even Su Xingbai's breathing became rapid.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "How much do you think you need to sell in Laundry Powder and Ketamine to earn that much money?"

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Su Xingbai immediately felt that what he had been playing with before was truly too childish.

Chen Jiajun continued, "In the financial world, there is a saying: only a safe market can guarantee the development of the financial industry, so I must eliminate all unstable factors in Hong Kong."

Hearing this, Su Xingbai finally understood why Chen Jiajun would do things this way.

It had to be said that Chen Jiajun's words today had taught him a harsh lesson.

Mo Yilie and the various triads were indeed not even qualified to carry Chen Jiajun's shoes.

Such a person was the goal for him, Su Xingbai.

Thinking of this, Su Xingbai felt enlightened, and he smiled at Chen Jiajun and said, "I understand, Boss."

Chen Jiajun said indifferently, "Since you know, then go do your work."

The next day, Su Xingbai began to show his power.

He used the Laundry Powder sent by Luo Wen to mix into the Ketamine.

By the way, he also utilized the brain of his underling, Baodeng, to start selling online.

In a short period of time, the goods in Su Xingbai's hands suddenly became red-hot.

He seized quite a bit of the market, and it could be said that he beat La Jiang's people into retreat.

Because of the Laundry Powder, those little junkies only looked for Su Xingbai to buy goods, practically turning it into an exclusive business.

This caused Su Xingbai, who had originally been far behind La Jiang, to overtake him on the spot.

When the day came for the triad to collect money, it was actually Su Xingbai who took the top spot.

Large stacks of banknotes were laid out on the long table; Ding Min was responsible for the accounting, and then Mo Yilie was responsible for distributing money to the triad's uncles.

This made those uncles of the triad beam with joy.

"A Lie, you are truly amazing. The Hong Kong Government only gives six thousand dollars per person, but you are distributing six hundred thousand to each person; you are even more impressive than the Governor." The uncles immediately praised Mo Yilie.

Mo Yilie said modestly, "I haven't done anything; I just shipped some things back. The ones who really did the work are these two. If it weren't for La Jiang and Mike running around everywhere to distribute the goods for us, how could we possibly divide up so much?"

The uncles nodded one after another: "You two have a bright future in Yifeng."

La Jiang smiled very reluctantly, while Su Xingbai learned from Mo Yilie and was very modest.

Mo Yilie smiled and said, "In the future, it won't just be these two; our Yifeng can be said to have a bright future. We brought in one ton this time; next time we'll bring in ten tons, and in the future, we'll distribute six million to each person, how about that?"

Hearing Mo Yilie's words, the group of uncles applauded one after another.

It had to be said that this guy was very good at stirring up emotions.

After letting the triad uncles be happy for a while, Mo Yilie turned his head and specifically praised Su Xingbai: "Young people are indeed young people; their brains are just better. Knowing to specifically look for those young people to sell and promote, those little youngsters outside are much more straightforward than the old junkies from before."

Su Xingbai smiled and said, "It also requires Lie Ge's goods to be good enough."

Subsequently, Mo Yilie patted La Jiang on the shoulder and said, "You are about the same as Weili was back then, steady and stable, just lacking a bit of creativity. You are a senior. Don't lose to the up-and-coming stars."

La Jiang's expression was very ugly, and he could only say, "Understood, Lie Ge."

These words from Mo Yilie were undoubtedly a warning to La Jiang; La Jiang was not a fool, so how could he not hear it?

It was just that he did not expect what method Su Xingbai had used to actually surpass him in just over ten days.

After returning to his own company, La Jiang was even more furious, directly throwing the unsold goods in his hands at his underlings and roaring viciously, "Eat them all up for me."

The underlings all had sheepish expressions, and no one dared to say a word.

La Jiang said with pent-up anger, "Now that our Ketamine isn't selling as well as theirs, if I don't vent on you, who do I vent on? I have more people than that brat, and more territory than that brat, so how could I be outsold by him? Are you pieces of trash eating sh*t?"

"And another thing. Everyone's goods are taken from Lie Ge's hands, so why do the little junkies only want his and not mine? Why haven't you gone to get Mike's goods to test them yet?"

Hearing La Jiang's words, the underlings finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Understood, Boss."

The more La Jiang thought about it, the angrier he got, and he kicked over the chair beside him.

Soon, the underlings brought Su Xingbai's goods, and La Jiang took a trusted aide and began to test the goods.

Through some chemical means, La Jiang soon discovered the trick inside this batch of Su Xingbai's Ketamine.

"No wonder," La Jiang said with sharp eyes, "he actually mixed Laundry Powder inside. Those little junkies will only look for him to buy more after eating it. Truly capable. He actually played the 'hurt the enemy by sacrificing one's own capital' game on me."

The underling hurriedly said, "Boss, why don't we just learn from him?"

"Being wise after the event is useless," La Jiang said impatiently.

Subsequently, La Jiang said to himself viciously, "Brat, just you wait; you won't be smug for long."

Su Xingbai did not care about the outcome of this matter; he was very clear that he followed Chen Jiajun, not Mo Yilie.

Moreover, after witnessing Chen Jiajun's ambition, Su Xingbai even specifically had his underling,

who was Baodeng, the one studying finance, inquire about it, and learned that Chen Jiajun had indeed used the last stock market crash to rake in nearly thirty billion in funds from the stock market, and even used this capital to save many Chinese Capital Merchants enterprises in Hong Kong, becoming the savior of all Chinese Capital Merchants,

and his desire to be in the underworld faded more and more.

Although Hong Kong is full of gangsters, only after truly entering a triad did he discover that, in fact, being in a triad is also a business.

Those brotherhoods and underworld loyalties are all bullsh*t; in the end, it is still about interests.

Since there was a higher platform for development, Su Xingbai no longer cared for his position in Yifeng.

Now he only wanted to quickly complete the task Chen Jiajun had given him, and then wash his own record clean.

"Baodeng, go find me a gigolo; I have something that needs doing," Su Xingbai pondered for a long time before saying to his subordinate Baodeng.

Baodeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, I'll have someone go find one."

"Wait, you go find one yourself," Su Xingbai said with a serious expression. "This matter is very important to me; I don't trust outsiders. And you must find one that can be controlled; there can be no mistakes in this."

Upon hearing Su Xingbai's words, Baodeng immediately frowned and asked, "Boss, what are you planning to do?"

As his trusted aide, Su Xingbai did not hide it from Baodeng and said indifferently, "I intend to overturn Mo Yilie's warehouse."

"Ah?" A look of shock immediately appeared on Baodeng's face. "Boss, why do you want to do this? This is no small matter."

Su Xingbai shook his head and said, "Don't ask about that; you will naturally know when the time comes."

Baodeng was speechless and could only leave with a belly full of worries.

Because he had seen higher places, Su Xingbai was unwilling to stay in the mud pit of Yifeng any longer.

Therefore, his way of doing things had also become aggressive.

So, he planned to take action directly against Ding Min.

Having frequently obtained goods from Ding Min's hands, Su Xingbai knew that Ding Min was not wholeheartedly devoted to Mo Yilie.

She even had quite a few complaints because Mo Yilie had dragged her into this business.

After all, she was just a woman; how could she possibly like dealing with drug traffickers all day long?

Su Xingbai intended to exploit Ding Min's concerns to sow discord between her and Mo Yilie.

Soon, Baodeng brought back a gigolo; this bastard relied on his girlfriend working as a hostess to support his entire family.

Regarding a person like this, Su Xingbai felt there would be no problem no matter how he manipulated this bastard.

Su Xingbai seized the gigolo's weakness—his family—and made him approach Ding Min to gain her favor.

He even specifically bribed Ding Min's psychiatrist to familiarize himself with some of her thoughts.

After Su Xingbai deliberately arranged a few chance encounters, Ding Min indeed struck up a relationship with this gigolo. (End of chapter)
