Chapter 454: The Treasure-Snatching Alliance: Wei Hong

On the other side, at He Xin's luxury mansion.

Chen Jiajun, this grandson-in-law, brought He Tian'er back to visit He Xin.

"How do you have the time to come see me?" He Xin said with some curiosity: "I heard you've been making quite a stir over in the United States! Specializing in high-tech business?"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "I just set up an investment company and have been investing blindly! You could say a blind cat ran into a dead mouse."

"Are you trying to fool a child!" He Xin rolled his eyes and said: "You guy never let the hawk fly until you see the rabbit; would you really invest blindly?"

"You don't believe me when I tell you, what, are you jealous?" Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

He Xin's old face flushed; he was indeed a bit jealous.

Chen Jiajun was no longer playing around in the Greater Bay Area, but had gone to the United States to earn "greenbacks."

Moreover, Yahoo's stock price was rising rapidly, which meant Chen Jiajun was raking in money by the bucketload—who wouldn't be jealous of that! So, he was hinting in every way that he wanted Chen Jiajun to take them along for a ride again.

However, Chen Jiajun kept playing dumb, refusing to give him that opportunity at all.

Chen Jiajun wasn't stupid either; the industry over in the United States was something he had worked hard to build himself, so why should he let these old ghosts get a piece of the pie without paying a cent?

As for matters in the United States, those few Big Bosses in the Greater Bay Area couldn't help with anything anyway.

He Xin was only testing the waters; seeing Chen Jiajun beat around the bush, he stopped pursuing the question, pursed his lips, and turned to ask: "You kid still haven't told me what you're doing in Macau?"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "You know Boss Zheng, right?"

"Zheng Yutong?" He Xin nodded: "We have some history, that's 'Shark-Gall Zheng'! Back in the day, he smuggled gold by sea and was a fierce man who dared to go head-to-head with pirates!"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "Boss Zheng's jewelry shops have been getting robbed lately, and I heard the gold has all ended up in the hands of a fence in Macau who specializes in stolen goods, so he asked me for a favor!"

He Xin suddenly realized; so it was Chen Jiajun's connections.

He couldn't help but nod and say: "So that's it, who has the guts to do that?"

"Seems to be a guy named Wei Hong, but... anyone with a discerning eye should understand what's really going on here!" Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

He Xin was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Indeed, it's not easy for outsiders to get involved in the Zhou family's affairs!"

Chen Jiajun helplessly spread his hands and said: "That's why I need your help this time, old man, to deal only with this guy named Wei Hong, without getting tangled up in the Zhou family's business!"

He Xin frowned and said: "Why are you taking on such a troublesome matter!"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands helplessly and said: "Mr. Zheng is a person worth uniting with."

Having said that, He Xin had nothing more to say: "Fine, I have some history with Mr. Zheng anyway, but it's agreed that we're only dealing with Wei Hong; I don't want to get mixed up in the Zhou family's mess!"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said: "Do you think I want to?"

"Hahahaha!"

Chen Jiajun wasn't lying about this; it was true that he wanted to find Wei Hong.

But Mr. Zheng's matter was also true! It was just a coincidence that he could handle both things at once.

Anyway, no matter what, that scum Wei Hong was a dead man!

After the triads in Macau were almost completely crushed by Hong Xing, Hong Xing became the sole power here.

Ya Qi was also feeling bored in Macau; if he had known, he might as well have stayed as the head of the Information Department—at least there was work to do.

Over here in Macau, Ya Qi was bored to death, just eating and drinking every day.

Now that the boss had finally given an order, Ya Qi was naturally full of energy, taking his men everywhere to dig up Wei Hong's whereabouts.

It was just that this guy Wei Hong had been operating in Macau for many years, even longer than Hong Xing, so naturally, he wouldn't be found so easily.

Ya Qi had almost turned over every place in Macau that had a connection to Wei Hong, but he hadn't found the guy's whereabouts.

But he hadn't come up empty-handed; at least he had found a key figure, and that was Chang Yong of the Twin Sect.

This guy was the one who stole the blueprints from the Shenzhou Technology Company; Ya Qi had already learned this from the people in the Information Department, so he was immediately excited to hear news of Chang Yong.

He took his men and charged toward a nightclub.

Although this guy Chang Yong was the younger brother of the Twin Sect leader and could be considered a benchmark figure of the old-school Dao Sect,

his personality was completely different from his Big Brother, Chang Zhong.

After failing to compete for the position of sect leader, this guy started to let himself go, committing crimes all over the world.

Relying on the skills of the Dao Sect, he committed several major crimes in a row and was wanted by Interpol.

No one expected that this guy would dare to return to his old home, and even less did anyone expect that he would actually dare to mess with Chen Jiajun.

Having left Asia for many years, this guy had no idea who he had provoked.

After completing the transaction with Wei Hong, he actually stayed in Macau to have a good time.

At this moment, inside the nightclub, Chang Yong was drinking while holding two young girls.

From time to time, he would toss out a large stack of cash, causing the girls serving him to let out bursts of exclamation.

Chang Yong thoroughly enjoyed this feeling, while at the same time thinking his Big Brother was a pig.

With such great skills, he insisted on disbanding the Twin Sect; otherwise, with a team, where in the world could they not go?

Just as Chang Yong was daydreaming, the music in the nightclub suddenly stopped.

And the surrounding customers seemed to be leaving one by one.

This immediately made Chang Yong, who had already drunk quite a bit, alert.

Chang Yong immediately shoved his head into the ice bucket used for chilling wine, using the ice water to stimulate himself into sobering up a bit.

Then, his gaze began to scan his surroundings.

The girls accompanying him were also bewildered, having no idea what was happening.

But Chang Yong had already stood up at this point, preparing to blend into the crowd and leave the nightclub.

Although he didn't know what was happening, leaving this place of trouble early was always the right move.

Only this time, Chang Yong had run into a tough nut to crack.

Ya Qi quickly locked onto Chang Yong and sent men directly over to intercept him.

Upon seeing the men aggressively heading toward him, Chang Yong's heart sank; he tucked his hand into his sleeve and felt a bag of something.

Just as Ya Qi's subordinates rushed toward him aggressively, Chang Yong suddenly erupted into action, crushing the item in his hand, and white powder flew everywhere.

The few Hong Hing boys who rushed over immediately got a lot of white lime in their faces and eyes, stinging them so much they couldn't open their eyes.

A burning sensation even spread quickly!

"Damn it, it's quicklime! Grab him!" the brother who was hit roared, notifying the others.

The sudden turn of events caused the people in the Nightclub to scream and flee in all directions.

This created an excellent escape opportunity for Chang Yong, and within a few leaps, he disappeared into the crowd.

Now the Hong Hing Majai were in trouble, and for a moment, they actually didn't know how to intercept him.

However, Ya Qi made his move very quickly.

Ya Qi sneered, pushed through the crowd with long strides, and then fired several shots at the ceiling in succession: "Everyone get down!"

Hearing Ya Qi's roar and the deafening gunshots, everyone crouched down.

Chang Yong had nowhere to hide; he stepped directly onto these people's shoulders and, like a sharp arrow, darted toward the Nightclub entrance.

"Want to leave?" Ya Qi let out a cold snort, raised his muzzle, aimed at Chang Yong's legs, and pulled the Trigger.

But with this shot, Ya Qi actually missed.

It wasn't that Ya Qi hadn't hit the target, but that Chang Yong had defied common sense, twisting his body mid-air to dodge it by sheer force.

Watching Chang Yong about to escape from the Nightclub, Ya Qi no longer hid his strength; he pushed off with both legs and chased after Chang Yong at high speed.

Hearing the sound coming from behind, Chang Yong dared not be negligent at all.

The first thing he did after leaving the Nightclub was to knock down a punk riding a motorcycle with one punch, then he snatched the motorcycle and fled rapidly. However, when Chang Yong looked back using the motorcycle's rearview mirror, his hair stood on end.

Because he saw that the man who had just fired the gun was actually catching up to the speeding motorcycle using only his legs.

This made Chang Yong slam the throttle a few more times, increasing his speed.

The chaos happening here had already drawn the attention of quite a few people.

Ya Qi couldn't afford to be too excessive, so he could only stop his steps.

……

"Huh?" Chen Jiajun said with an incredulous look: "That little thief actually escaped from Ya Qi's hands?"

The Information Department shrugged and said: "When Boss Ya Qi returns, he will tell you himself!"

"This is getting interesting!" Chen Jiajun said, rubbing his chin: "To think there is someone who could escape from Ya Qi's hands!"

The Information Officer said to Chen Jiajun: "This Chang Yong is not simple; he is an expert from the Twin Sect of the Mainland Dao Sect lineage! He has committed crimes in over a dozen countries, and the jewelry, gold, and antiques he has stolen are worth over one hundred million US dollars. He is currently being hunted by Interpol!"

"To think he has such a background; no wonder he could temporarily escape from Ya Qi's hands!" Chen Jiajun nodded immediately.

The Dao Sect belongs to the lower nine classes back home and is an existence with an ancient heritage.

Someone who can be active on the international stage naturally has some real skills.

Chen Jiajun pondered for a moment and said to the Information Officer: "Notify Ya Qi, I want this guy alive; don't let him get killed!"

The Information Officer nodded and said: "Understood, Boss!"

"What about Wei Hong? Did you find any news?" Chen Jiajun asked.

The Information Officer spread his hands and said: "This guy definitely has people from the Ether Society helping him; they have wiped away his tracks. I'm afraid it will be hard to find his trail for a while!"

"Sure enough, this bait has hooked a big fish!" Chen Jiajun sneered and said: "Keep investigating, but if you find his whereabouts, it's best not to act rashly. What I want is the person from the Ether Society behind Wei Hong!"

After the person from the Information Department nodded, they turned and left.

"Twin Sect, this is really quite interesting!" Chen Jiajun held his wine glass, looking at the night view of Macau.

Chang Yong fled for a day and a night straight, and finally, he couldn't run anymore.

He didn't understand how he had been so low-key and careful, yet someone would accurately find his location every so often.

For him, this simply made him feel like he was breaking down.

"Tsk, why aren't you running? I thought you could run quite a bit!" the Information Officer looked at Chang Yong, who was slumped on the ground, and teased.

Chang Yong was not a robot after all; having not eaten anything for a day and a night, and with his mind in a state of high tension, he barely had the strength to speak, so he could only say in a low voice: "Do whatever you want with me!"

"Rest assured, our boss wants to see you; he won't let you die so easily."

Saying this, the Information Officer walked over and locked a restraint onto Chang Yong's thumbs.

Even for an expert of the Dao Sect like Chang Yong, without the proper tools, he shouldn't even think about opening this thing.

Chang Yong's face immediately fell: "Do you have to be so careful?"

"A former candidate for the head of the Twin Sect, an expert on the Interpol blacklist—it's better to be careful!" the Information Officer said with a smile.

After bringing Chang Yong back to the hotel and preparing some food for him, Ya Qi walked over.

"You've got some skills; you're the first person who has been able to escape from my hands," Ya Qi said with a smile.

Chang Yong glanced at Ya Qi and said: "You're not simple either; you're the first person to force me to this point!"

"Alright, no need for the pleasantries. Where is Wei Hong?" Ya Qi asked directly.

Chang Yong put down the bread in his hand and said: "Do you think I would betray my employer?"

"You will!" Ya Qi sneered and said: "Someone who can even bear to lay a hand on their own brother—I don't think there's anything you wouldn't do!"

"Tsk, it seems you really put some effort into researching me!" Chang Yong glanced at Ya Qi and said slowly.

Ya Qi said with a smile: "So don't waste time. It's tiring for us to use methods on you! And at your age, I don't even know if you can handle it!"

Chang Yong said helplessly: "Telling you might not be of any use; with Wei Hong's cunning methods, he has probably already left by now!"

"As long as there's a lead, that's enough!" Ya Qi didn't care.

Since Wei Hong is in Macau, he doesn't think he can escape from his boss's palm.

……

Chen Jiajun searching everywhere in Macau for Wei Hong's whereabouts is something that cannot be kept hidden.

Quite a few people have received the news and started taking action.

After all, Chen Jiajun is making a big move this time; ten million for catching Wei Hong, and one million for providing reliable information.

And it is paid directly in cash.

Such a good thing makes it very hard for those in the know to refuse an opportunity to get rich overnight.

Inside a Macau Casino, in front of a slot machine that no one wants to play.

A man wearing a suit is mechanically inserting coins into the slot machine.

Just then, two thugs walked over, lowered their voices, and said, "Have you heard? Hong Kong King Chen Jiajun is offering a reward for information on Wei Hong. I heard that just providing information can get you one million!"

"Is money from such a big shot easy to take? If the information you provide isn't accurate, or if you're thinking of scamming the money, I reckon you'll be thrown into the sea first!"

"That's true!" The thug rubbed the back of his head and said, "Doesn't your uncle run a pawn shop? Go and ask around about the situation!"

The other thug said with a look of disdain, "This news has long since spread; would it still be your turn? My uncle has already contacted people, it's just that there hasn't been any news yet. That old fox Wei Hong is cunning; he isn't that easy to find!"

Hearing the two thugs whispering, a flash of sharpness crossed the suit-wearing man's eyes.

He inserted all the coins in his hand into the slot machine, then stood up and left the casino directly.

After standing at the entrance to smoke a cigarette, the suit-wearing man took a taxi to the Hongxing Casino.

As soon as he entered, the suit-wearing man said to the manager at the front desk, "I want to see your Boss, I have information on Wei Hong!"

The manager was stunned for a moment, then reached out and said, "Please come this way, may I ask the gentleman's surname?"

"You can just call me Haojiang Pu, I am South Korean!" the suit-wearing man said very calmly.

The manager invited Haojiang Pu to the VIP room, and soon a man dressed in black came over.

"Haojiang Pu? I heard you have information on Wei Hong?" The man in black looked at Haojiang Pu curiously and said.

Haojiang Pu nodded: "That's right, are you the person in charge?"

The man in black said indifferently: "I need to be sure you really have information before I can take you to see my Boss!"

Haojiang Pu took out a file and handed it to the man in black.

Inside was a photo of a woman.

Haojiang Pu explained: "This woman is named Tiffany, she is Wei Hong's mistress! She is also the person closest to Wei Hong, and she helps manage quite a few of Wei Hong's businesses!"

The man in black looked at the information and immediately laughed: "After so long, there is finally some reliable information! Wait, one million will be sent over soon!"

Haojiang Pu, however, said indifferently: "I don't want money!"

The man in black said in surprise: "Then what do you want?"

"Is your Boss preparing to deal with Wei Hong?" Haojiang Pu asked.

The man in black nodded: "Otherwise, why would we be scouring everywhere for him!"

"That's good, I want to see your Boss. I know Wei Hong very well! I don't want money, I just want to watch this guy die!" Haojiang Pu said to the man in black with a serious face.

The man in black hesitated for a moment and then said: "Wait a moment, I need to discuss this with our Boss."

Haojiang Pu nodded, then closed his eyes and said nothing.

Soon, someone from the Information Department contacted Chen Jiajun and told him the news about Haojiang Pu.

Upon hearing this news, Chen Jiajun was quite surprised: "This guy has a grudge against Wei Hong?"

"It should be that way, and it's not an ordinary grudge." The Information Officer said with a smile: "We have already had people investigate his identity!" "Since that's the case, then let's meet him!" Chen Jiajun nodded. (End of chapter)
