Chapter 76: Pay You More!

Jiang Tiansheng's admission of fault caused his reputation and prestige within Hongxing to be swept away entirely.

Yet he had no choice but to do so, because his repeated mistakes had led Han Bin, Jing Kun, Konglong, and Shisimei to no longer trust him.

As long as Chen Jiajun sowed a little discord, this group would certainly choose to follow him to set up their own faction or defect to other societies.

Hongxing's strength would drop by at least half!

When that time came, let alone cleaning house, would old rivals like Dongxing and Heliansheng let Hongxing off?

He admitted his fault to preserve Hongxing; as long as he could hold onto the position of Hongxing Dragon Head, he could still turn the tables!

After finishing the tea in his cup, Jiang Tiansheng revealed a smile: "A Jun! Thank you for accepting my apology. From now on, if you have any difficulties, you must take the initiative to tell me. Sometimes I am unable to look after everyone."

Although he was smiling, the murderous intent in his eyes was hard to conceal.

With a heart as narrow as Jiang Tiansheng's, how could he possibly swallow this insult?

Chen Jiajun naturally understood what kind of person Jiang Tiansheng was; his choice to drink the tea was simply because the timing was not yet right.

He smiled and said: "Mr. Jiang, let the past be the past."

"A Jun, how about we play golf together tomorrow? Come to think of it, you've been a Zha FIT Ren for so long, and we haven't had a proper chat." Jiang Tiansheng extended an invitation.

"Fine, I will definitely be there tomorrow."

At this moment, inside Zhongyi Hall, it appeared to be a scene of brotherly harmony, yet it was buried with murderous intent.

This emergency meeting of Hongxing came and went quickly.

Seeing the Zha FIT Rens of Hongxing walk out of the main hall safe and sound, the people from the Anti-Triad Unit also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the intelligence the police had received was that Jiang Tiansheng was going to clean house.

"What exactly is Hongxing up to?" Wanchai Anti-Triad Unit Inspector Niu Xiong asked, puzzled by this scene.

"It seems the crisis is temporarily averted. Let's withdraw." Senior Inspector Chen Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief and lit a cigarette.

He admired Chen Jiajun and really did not want to see Chen Jiajun's curtain fall so hastily.

Yet, as a Senior Inspector of the Anti-Triad Unit, it was impossible for him to tip off Chen Jiajun.

Returning to the Wanchai Police Station, the people from the Anti-Triad Unit soon learned what had happened at Hongxing's main hall through intelligence from undercovers and informants.

The Anti-Triad Unit has undercovers in Hongxing?

This is inevitable, and it is certain.

The larger the society, the more undercovers must be planted; the more famous the Big Brother, the more undercovers must be planted.

It is just that no undercovers could be planted in Chen Jiajun's branch.

The reason is simple: Chen Jiajun never accepts outsiders, and some undercovers who wanted to join under Dumu or Lao E were all refused without exception.

At the same time, the news that Hongxing Dragon Head Jiang Tiansheng had poured tea and admitted his fault to Wanchai Zha FIT Ren Chen Jiajun quietly spread throughout the underworld, shocking all the societies in Hong Kong.

For a time, it was truly a scene of "filial piety" in the hall!

"Have you heard? Hongxing's Jiang Tiansheng poured tea and admitted his fault to Jing Jun!"

"No way! Jiang Tiansheng, as the Dragon Head, apologized to a Zha FIT Ren?"

"I have a brother who saw it with his own eyes!"

"How will that Jiang Tiansheng be able to hold his head up in public from now on!"

……

Returning to Guojun Building.

Although the immediate crisis had been dispelled, Chen Jiajun knew very well in his heart that as long as Jiang Tiansheng was not removed, he, Chen Jiajun, would not be able to sleep soundly.

Sigh!

Originally, he just wanted to be a Zha FIT Ren under the Hongxing banner, use Hongxing's influence to crazily skim off branch fees, and make big money for himself……

In this way, he, Chen Jiajun, had no choice but to shoulder the banner of Hongxing.

And shouldering the banner of Hongxing meant not only sitting in the Dragon Head position but also taking responsibility for the tens of thousands of mouths in Hongxing.

Removing Jiang Tiansheng was as easy as turning over one's hand, but how to ascend to the position legitimately was a big problem!

How to stabilize the hearts of all the Zha FIT Rens was also a big problem.

The Jing Kun in the movie thought that by sitting in the Hongxing Dragon Head position, he had obtained everything.

Quite the contrary, sitting in the Dragon Head position is the true beginning.

"Lao E, I have another task for you."

"Pay up!!!"

Before Lao E could respond, Dumu on the side spoke up proactively. As Lao E was his slave, he had been ordered around by Chen Jiajun for a while, so this naturally required a fee!

"Fine! Pay!" Chen Jiajun patted his chest. In their small group, Dumu was the real Big Brother; after all, many things relied on him.

"Lao E, go and tail Jiang Tiansheng. From now on, I want to know everything about Jiang Tiansheng!"

"Received!"

After Lao E finished speaking, he walked toward the door with excitement on his face.

Chen Jiajun looked at Dumu and said: "Dumu, Ya Qi, let's go! To Xieliyuan Gold Shop, I'm paying you more!"

During this period, Chen Jiajun clearly felt that he didn't have enough manpower on hand. After all, he was now in charge of Central Lan Kwai Fong, Wanchai, and Hennessy Road.

After the territory expanded, the number of underlings had to keep up; otherwise, after a long time, it would be easy for others to step in.

And most of his underlings were working at construction sites……

If he wanted Dumu to conjure up more demon slave minions, it would cost quite a few Universe Coins, and he didn't know what Dumu wanted so many Universe Coins for.

The group arrived at Xieliyuan Gold Shop. Without Chen Jiajun needing to speak, the security guard at the door immediately called the store manager. The manager immediately cleared the customers out of the store and announced that a heavyweight VIP was coming, striving to provide the Big Brother with the most perfect shopping experience.

"Young Master, I wonder how much gold you want this time?"

The store manager nodded and bowed, looking no different from someone seeing their own father.

The female clerks at Xieliyuan Gold Shop who weren't wearing makeup hurried to touch it up, and those who had already applied it used sweet, coquettish voices to serve the Big Brother.

They wished nothing more than for Big Brother to check their educational backgrounds today...

As a graduate student in his past life, Jun Shao was not interested in the educational backgrounds of the female clerks at Xieliyuan Gold Shop.

After all, having already seen the flashy world, what did a primary school education count for?

Chen Jiajun calmly slapped a check onto the counter: "The usual rules, exchange it all for gold for me."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The manager knew the rules of this Big Brother, but when he picked up the check and looked at it, he was given a huge fright:

"Holy shit!!!"

He was so scared he threw the check away on the spot, because the first digit written on it was a 5, and the zeros following it were too many to count!

"What? Has the famous Xieliyuan Gold Shop never seen a check before?"

Several female clerks immediately picked up the check from the floor and counted: "One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand... Jun Shao, is this fifty million?"

In this era, there were truly not many people who could take out fifty million in Hong Kong cash; calculated by current purchasing power, it was equivalent to a coal tycoon from later generations taking two billion to sweep up buildings.

For a moment, the gazes the female clerks directed at Jun Shao were all brimming with watery affection...

Jun Shao's surname was Chen; there were very few young masters surnamed Chen in Hong Kong—could he be a noble from Nanyang?

Once married into such a wealthy and prestigious family, it would be no different from ascending to the heavens in a single step, a common crow turning into a Phoenix.

The female clerks became even more attentive in an instant.

"Jun Shao, no wonder the magpies at home were chirping so happily today~"

"Jun Shao, this is the osmanthus cake my mother made specially; I couldn't bear to eat it, I saved it just for you~"

The manager took the check from the female clerk's hand and immediately called the bank to verify the authenticity of the check.

After receiving the bank's reply, he tremblingly dialed the phone to the boss of the Hong Kong Xieliyuan Gold Shop—Xie Zhichao: "Chairman Xie, the big client who often buys gold at our store has come again! This time, he wants to buy fifty million Hong Kong dollars worth of gold!"
