329. Chapter 329: Stealing the Heavens and Changing the Sun

After leaving the Yifeng branch, Su Xingbai had his men drive directly to Central, to the headquarters of Guojun Group.

Now that Mo Yilie was dead and his warehouse had been raided by the police, he had finally completed the task Chen Jiajun had assigned him.

He knew Chen Jiajun was a generous man; the things he had done during this time had paid off the startup capital Chen Jiajun had originally lent him and completed his mission, and he believed there were surely more benefits waiting for him.

Arriving at the Chairman's office, Chen Jiajun was currently reading newspapers and the news.

Seeing Su Xingbai walk in, Chen Jiajun revealed a smile and said, "Well done."

Su Xingbai said modestly, "This is all thanks to the Boss's help."

Chen Jiajun said with an ambiguous smile, "I am not Mo Yilie; I don't really like my subordinates buttering me up. What I want are people who can truly get things done. If it's done well, it's done well; no matter what method was used, it is your credit. I hope you remember this clearly."

Su Xingbai nodded quickly: "I understand, Boss."

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "This time, you brought down Mo Yilie's Ketamine warehouse, which indeed exceeded my expectations, so I am prepared to give you two choices."

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Su Xingbai's breathing became rapid.

It was just as he had expected; Chen Jiajun was never stingy when treating his subordinates.

"First, give up all your positions in Yifeng, and I will help you wash your record clean. Afterward, follow by my side as my assistant and help me handle some matters regarding the group."

"Second, I will do my utmost to help you sit in the position of Yifeng's leader, and even become the biggest triad boss in the New Territories."

Chen Jiajun held up two fingers and said to Su Xingbai.

These two conditions, no matter which one, were tremendous benefits for Su Xingbai.

Don't look at how Yifeng is being suppressed miserably right now; the foundation is still there after all.

If Su Xingbai managed it with care, perhaps he could soon overtake some of the old-school triads.

But being Chen Jiajun's assistant, the temptation of this matter was equally significant; it could allow him to see a much broader world. These two choices left Su Xingbai in a dilemma.

After struggling for a long time, Su Xingbai said to Chen Jiajun, "Can I not choose right now?"

Chen Jiajun revealed a smile: "You can, but the time cannot be too long."

"I understand; I will go back and consider it carefully." Su Xingbai took a deep breath and nodded.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Regarding the matter of La Jiang, if you can settle it yourself and sit in the position of Yifeng's leader, I will credit you with another achievement."

Su Xingbai's eyes lit up, and he quickly thanked him: "Many thanks, Boss."

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you should go back and think it over."

After Su Xingbai left Chen Jiajun's office, he began to consider how to use the resources in his hands to deal with that guy La Jiang.

Although he learned from the Ether Society that this guy La Jiang was an Undercover for the CIB,

his seniority in Yifeng was not enough, and without evidence, it would be very difficult to make those old-fart uncles believe his words.

And La Jiang did not look like someone who would just surrender; he would definitely try to find ways to strike at him during this time.

So this was not a simple matter; it seemed he still had many things to be busy with.

Not long after Su Xingbai left, the door to Chen Jiajun's office was knocked on again.

But what Chen Jiajun did not expect was that the person pushing the door open was actually Lu Jinqiang.

Because after the incident last time, Lu Jinqiang and his brothers had their positions in Lu Guo Group stripped away entirely, which led the brothers to distance themselves quite a bit from Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun did not pay much attention to it, as he knew deep down what kind of character Lu Yongyu's brothers had.

Today, Lu Jinqiang suddenly came to his door, which made Chen Jiajun a bit curious.

"Qiangge, what made you think of coming here today?" Chen Jiajun said with a smile: "I thought you would be like Afu, bad-mouthing me everywhere."

Lu Jinqiang said with a bitter smile, "That brat Afu, I will teach him a good lesson. Actually, I also know that we brothers are indeed not suited to manage the company's business. It's just that being suddenly excluded from the management, I was definitely feeling a bit uncomfortable inside."

"I can understand." Chen Jiajun had the Secretary bring in tea, then said: "You didn't come to find me today just to talk about this, right? We are considered relatives; as long as it's not something related to Lu Guo Group, I will definitely help where I can."

Lu Jinqiang shook his head and said, "There are some things I want to ask for your help with, but today is not to talk about that. We discovered that someone has already started finding those villagers in the village to purchase Ding Rights. And they are buying them at a high price."

"Tao Shu asked me to tell you that these people buying them are all men of the four big bosses, and the organizer among them is Situ Guang."

Hearing Lu Jinqiang's words, Chen Jiajun's gaze immediately became sharp: "High price? How high can it be?"

Lu Jinqiang gave a bitter smile and said, "Even Tao Shu's prestige can't suppress it, what do you think?"

The so-called "wealth moves the heart"; the New Territories just happens to have many poor people, and many people can't afford to build a Ding House of their own in their entire lives, so they might as well sell the right to build a Ding House.

Such things are not in short supply, no matter when or where.

If the people from the Real Estate Chamber of Commerce really bought a large amount of Ding Rights, then the profits from the Ding House Mansion would definitely decrease significantly. One has to say that the four bosses behind the Real Estate Chamber of Commerce are both malicious and poisonous.

The best way to solve this kind of thing now is to use violence.

Otherwise, under the stimulation of money, there will definitely be more and more people transferring their Ding Rights out.

However, this kind of thing is what Chen Jiajun least wants to see.

Although using triad members could effectively curb the villagers from selling their Ding Rights, the consequence of doing so would be losing the hearts of the New Territories villagers.

Moreover, Chen Jiajun had long since washed his hands of the triad life, and he did not want to involve triad matters in the company's affairs.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Jiajun himself did not have a very good solution, so he could only say to Lu Jinqiang: "I know about this matter. I will find a way to solve it; you go back and tell Tao Shu not to worry."

"Now let's talk about your own affairs. Listening to you, it seems you already have some ideas?"

Lu Jinqiang said with a smile, "I do indeed have some ideas. Since we are going to build the Ding House Mansion, there will definitely be many construction sites opening up. I want to set up a construction company and, incidentally, find some work for the fellow villagers. After all, for this kind of thing, it's better to benefit our own people than to benefit others."

"A construction company?" Chen Jiajun smiled and shook his head: "I'm not too worried about you, but what about those two bastards Afu and A Quan? Their personalities will surely lead to them fleecing the villagers."

"Let me recommend a trade for you. How about a building materials company? It doesn't require too many complex relationships; as long as you can find the supply channels."

"When the time comes, you can earn money however you should, just ensure the quality and quantity for me. I can let you have the exclusive business."

Lu Jinqiang was a bit dazed by Chen Jiajun's suggestion.

Although he had rejected his brothers' ideas, he had given them another path.

Being able to have an exclusive business in building materials—anyone could tell just by thinking about it that this was a good business.

And as Chen Jiajun said, there was no need to deal with those complex interpersonal relationships.

You must know that Lu Family Village has connections with many villages in the New Territories; what will we do if we encounter holdouts during the demolition? Using force will definitely damage the reputation of the Lu family.

Lu Jinqiang could not make up his mind for a moment, and said to Chen Jiajun, "Then I will go back and consider it."

"Hmm, tell those brats to stop thinking about drinking and chasing women all day. If the construction materials business is done really well, I can even introduce Huo Xiansheng to you," Chen Jiajun said indifferently.

Lu Jinqiang's eyes lit up immediately, and he then nodded repeatedly.

After Lu Jinqiang left, Chen Jiajun began to have a headache.

Chen Jiajun was even feeling stumped by such a dirty trick as increasing payments to acquire Ding Rights.

If he also followed suit by increasing the price, the price of a single Ding Right would inflate rapidly, which did not fit Chen Jiajun's expectations at all.

Since they dared to do this, it was because they had set their sights on that piece of land in Liu Yaozu's hands that belonged to Lu Yongyuan.

If he could handle Liu Yaozu, this matter should be easy to resolve.

Therefore, Chen Jiajun immediately called over an Information Officer and said, "How is it going with Qian Wendi? Why haven't they made a move yet?"

The Information Officer said helplessly, "This kid is overly cautious in his work. His senior brother, Golden Finger, has been inside Liu Yaozu's private club for nearly half a year, and recently he even got his girlfriend to infiltrate it. I think this kid should be making a move soon."

Chen Jiajun had originally told Qian Wendi to take it slow and not to rush, but now he couldn't afford not to rush.

He could only say with a headache, "Tell Qian Wendi to speed it up. I have trouble on my end now."

"Understood, Boss." The Information Officer nodded and prepared to leave.

Chen Jiajun called him back at this moment: "What is Silva doing over there? Why is he still in England? Tell him to stop playing cat and mouse. Once he finishes off that old hag Madam M, have him come back quickly."

The Information Officer said with a smile, "Didn't you see this morning's newspaper? Mr. Silva has already finished the job. The current MI6 is practically dead in all but name."

Chen Jiajun was stunned for a moment. He took out the international news newspaper and found that, sure enough, an explosive piece of news had been published today.

The head of MI6, the famous Madam M, suddenly exploded this morning while being questioned at Chen Ning Street by the British Legislative Council.

The explosion caused multiple casualties, and England has classified this incident as a terrorist attack.

Now the entire England is in a state of panic and has entered a state of emergency.

"It seems that this guy Silva has finally fulfilled his obsession," Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "Then tell him to hurry back and reform the Information Department for me."

On the other side, Qian Wendi had indeed made preparations.

After nearly half a year of analyzing Liu Yaozu's habits, he was almost 100% certain that he could swindle this guy out of a fortune.

Therefore, after receiving the urgent call from Chen Jiajun, Qian Wendi had been practicing his basic skills for the past few days.

Although he didn't know why Liu Yaozu had developed a grudge against a big shot like Chen Jiajun, Qian Wendi had a very clear understanding that he could not afford to offend either side.

So this matter could only succeed, not fail.

After selecting the day to make his move, Qian Wendi brought the money and arrived at the club.

It was not his first time coming here. In order to pose as a regular rich second-generation, he had been coming to the private club to gamble a little every three to five days for some time.

As soon as he entered the door, the club manager greeted Qian Wendi obsequiously: "Young Master Qian, what would you like to play today?"

Qian Wendi said with an arrogant look, "I sold my old man's car; I want to play big today. Is there anyone in the VIP Hall?"

Upon hearing this, the club manager's eyes lit up immediately, knowing that a fat sheep had arrived.

However, he said calmly, "There is no one playing big in the club today, but since Young Master Qian wants to play, I can help you set up a game."

"Oh?" Qian Wendi raised an eyebrow: "What kind of people? Don't be those losers from outside. They can't even pull out a few hundred thousand; a bunch of poor ghosts."

The manager smiled and said, "How could that be? Our Boss, Mr. Liu Yaozu, happens to be free today and can play a few rounds. There is also a Young Master Chen from Singapore who will probably be interested as well."

"Oh? That's worth a look. Lead the way," Qian Wendi said with a smile.

Under the guidance of the club manager, Qian Wendi was immediately invited into the VIP Hall.

Then, a man wearing a white suit with a cocky look walked in: "Hey, just you alone? The two of us playing heads-up? Let me tell you, I am the nine-time Poker King of the Singapore Poker Championship. Be careful not to lose even your underwear."

Qian Wendi, not losing any momentum, directly took out the Money Box and slammed it on the table: "I can afford to play as big as you want."

Soon, Liu Yaozu arrived with his mistress, Meng Na.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, the gambling game began directly.

The three parties were not very familiar with each other, so they were quite cautious while playing cards; after a few rounds, the wins and losses were not very large.

However, that Young Master Chen from Singapore had been losing money the whole time.

But after a few rounds, having figured out everyone's characteristics, the stakes slowly began to increase.

However, there was a small interlude: a prison guard who called himself Zhong Chuxiong ran in and intended to join.

Since the table was already full of card sharps, him joining could only mean he was destined to be unlucky.

Naturally, there was nothing to say about the gambling game. With Qian Wendi calculating everything, let alone the Singaporean Young Master Chen and Zhong Chuxiong, even Liu Yaozu could not escape unscathed.

With the help of Lili and Golden Finger, who had long since infiltrated the private club, Qian Wendi swept away all the money in the hands of those people.

This made Liu Yaozu get up and leave in a very bad mood.

After dealing with Liu Yaozu, Qian Wendi immediately got up and left.

This guy Liu Yaozu was able to kill his wife and frame his father-in-law; he was clearly not a person who followed the rules.

After meeting up with Golden Finger, the two discussed the follow-up plan.

"You intend to force Liu Yaozu to play another game with you?" Golden Finger frowned and said: "This guy's card skills are not weak; you might not necessarily be able to beat him then."

Qian Wendi smiled and said: "Don't worry, we are card sharps after all. I naturally have a way to deal with this guy. Let's go pick up Lili and then go back to plan it out properly."

Qian Wendi brought Golden Finger to the Bar to pick up his girlfriend, but unexpectedly, he ran into Zhong Chuxiong again.

It hadn't been very pleasant at the gambling table earlier; Qian Wendi had played a nasty trick on Zhong Chuxiong and then made a stylish getaway.

After returning to their hideout, Qian Wendi was still laughing and saying: "And he's a Senior Inspector. I don't believe I'll have to go to jail for hitting that loser Zhong Chuxiong."

Golden Finger smiled and cautioned: "Don't forget, Master said that you should never speak too definitively."

"Your master is right."

Just at this moment, Liu Yaozu's voice suddenly rang out.

The two looked toward the room immediately and discovered that Liu Yaozu and his mistress Meng Na had actually found their hideout one step ahead and had taken Qian Wendi's girlfriend, Lili, hostage.

Before they could even react, Liu Yaozu's bodyguard A Bao moved directly, knocking Qian Wendi and Jin Shouzhi to the ground.

Seeing A Bao preparing to deal a ruthless blow, Liu Yaozu stopped him.

Qian Wendi pushed A Bao away, straightened his clothes, and said calmly, "Why the violence? Even if you caught us, according to the rules of the underworld, we only need to return thirty percent. Isn't it enough if we just return that to you?"

Liu Yaozu sneered, "Thirty percent? How much could thirty percent be? It's only a little over a million; is it worth me coming out in person?"

Qian Wendi looked at Liu Yaozu coldly and said, "Then what do you want?"

"I don't want you to return a single cent; I just need you to do one thing for me," Liu Yaozu said indifferently.

Qian Wendi said with undiminished spirit, "Why should I help you?"

"Because you have no choice." Liu Yaozu gave a look to A Bao beside him.

The bodyguard A Bao suddenly lunged forward, grabbed Jin Shouzhi, and broke one of his legs.

Jin Shouzhi's scream immediately enraged Qian Wendi, who grabbed Liu Yaozu by the collar and said viciously, "Bastard."

However, with his girlfriend and senior brother in the opponent's hands, Qian Wendi had to compromise; he let go of Liu Yaozu and, suppressing his anger, said, "What do you want?"

Liu Yaozu straightened his collar and said indifferently, "I want you to go to prison and swindle someone for me."

"Go to prison? Are you crazy?" Qian Wendi said directly.

At this moment, Meng Na stabbed a knife into Lili's thigh, and the scream made Qian Wendi unable to stop himself from fighting with the bodyguards beside Liu Yaozu.

Although Qian Wendi had also trained for two years, two fists are no match for four hands, and he was soon pinned down by a group of bodyguards.

Meng Na sneered and said, "This time it's the thigh; next time I'll slash her face."

"Don't you dare," Qian Wendi said viciously, then said to Liu Yaozu, "Fine, who do you want me to swindle?"

"Go swindle an old guy. His surname is Sun, and his nickname is Robinson," Liu Yaozu lied without changing his expression. "He used to work for me, but he was dishonest, so I fired him. He stole a batch of bonds from me worth three hundred million USD and then disappeared."

Qian Wendi looked at the fierce A Bao beside him and said, "Can't you just have him go and kill that old guy?"

Liu Yaozu said impatiently, "Do you need to teach me how to do things? I had people go in and break four of his ribs, and he still wouldn't talk. That old guy responds to soft tactics, not hard ones. I believe you bunch of bastard swindlers must have a way to trick it out of him."

Qian Wendi had no other choice now and could only agree first, "Fine, I agree. Send my friend to the hospital first."

"I will take care of your friend," Liu Yaozu said indifferently. "I'll give you one month to get the bonds back for me. There is someone in prison called Konglong; he will help you."

"After it's done, I'll give you an extra ten million. But remember, don't you dare call the police; it won't do you any good."

After Liu Yaozu left, Qian Wendi immediately checked the injuries of his girlfriend, Lili.

Fortunately, Lili was not seriously injured; Meng Na's strength was not that great, and the knife had only pierced the skin a little.

After Qian Wendi helped Lili bandage her wound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lili ignored the pain in her thigh and said to Qian Wendi, "Wendi, what do we do now? Jin Shouzhi has been caught; we must save him."

Qian Wendi gave a bitter smile and said, "There's no other way; we can only ask that big boss for help." (End of chapter)
