Chapter 158: Da Fei Ascends to the Boss

Jingkun wants his subordinate to take this position.

But he knows that now people probably suspect he killed Da B.

If he were to propose his subordinate for the position, it would likely provoke much opposition and further raise suspicion toward him.

But if Chen Mo puts it forward, there's no problem.

Jingkun assumes Chen Mo is smart and close to him, so he'll surely understand his idea.

"I want to recommend someone to be the Causeway Bay boss; I think he's quite suitable."

When they heard Chen Mo directly recommend a candidate, Jingkun smiled knowingly while the other bosses widened their eyes one by one.

Jingma bluntly objected: "Chen Mo, your few subordinates have only been in the Triad Society a short time, less than a month on the job, and already want to be boss? Isn't your appetite too unsightly?"

"Exactly. Young people must know when to stop!" Xing Shu also objected.

Although the two have some business dealings with Chen Mo, they would never, for that little business, stand by and watch Chen Mo take the Causeway Bay boss position.

If Chen Mo is set on snatching that spot, they don't mind cutting off business with him and confronting him head‑on.

Thirteen Sister, sitting beside Chen Mo, tugged his sleeve and whispered: "Um, Ah Mo, your subordinates are capable, but they really aren't fit to be the Causeway Bay boss."

Chen Mo patted Thirteen Sister's shoulder, soothed her a bit, then glanced at Jingma and Xing Shu and smiled: "You've misunderstood. I'm not planning to recommend my subordinate.

Honestly, I'm still short of men right now, how could I send them out!"

"Then who are you recommending?" Jingkun couldn't help but press, his tone edged with urgency.

Chen Mo smiled lightly and said unhurriedly: "I recommend Da Fei of North Point!"

"Hm?" Jingkun was startled.

"Ah?" the others were also bewildered.

"Who? Me?" Da Fei was even more confused.

Chen Mo's words caused a stir; no one expected him to recommend Da Fei!

Da Fei has been hanging around North Point, a world away from Chen Mo's Wang Jiao.

Although Chen Mo previously borrowed manpower from Da Fei and gave Da Fei A‑grade counterfeit clothes to sell in North Point, the A‑grade counterfeit sneakers were handed to Fei Lao Li.

The two aren't close at all; why would he recommend Da Fei!

Chen Mo continued: "Causeway Bay isn't just our Great Prosperity Triad Society; with Da B dead, other societies might seize the chance to move on Causeway Bay.

To be the Causeway Bay boss, you must have strength.

As for Da B's grudge, you can just have Da Fei keep it in mind, and once the murderer is found, let Da Fei act to avenge Da B."

After Chen Mo finished, each boss wore a complicated expression, and even Jingkun looked a bit uneasy.

Only Da Fei, after the initial bewilderment, began to get excited.

"Thanks Mo Ge for the recommendation. Rest assured, as long as I become the Causeway Bay boss, I guarantee that none of the surrounding societies will dare to encroach on our territory.

Whoever dares to move against us, I'll beat them until they don't even recognize their own mother.

I'll also shoulder Da B's grudge; whether finding the murderer or taking revenge, I'll put in the money and the muscle."

Da Fei, with an excited face, made his guarantees to Jingkun and the other bosses, ignoring the envious, jealous, hateful gazes of the surrounding big guys.

Joking aside, Da Fei's strength has indeed increased a lot now.

Since getting the North Point A‑grade counterfeit clothing business from Chen Mo, his money has grown and his subordinates have increased considerably.

Now his subordinates number not a thousand, but eight hundred.

Not to mention those big guys, several bosses' subordinates don't even match his numbers!

Chen Mo quietly tapped Thirteen Sister's arm and gave her a look.

Though Thirteen Sister doesn't know Chen Mo's exact plan, she stood up out of trust.

"I think Ah Mo is right. Da Fei is strong, his seniority in the society is sufficient, and over the years he's contributed a lot. I agree he should take this boss position."

Thirteen Sister agreed, and Han Bin naturally agreed as well.

As for Konglong, he'll do as his brother says.

Among the eleven bosses, four instantly agreed that Da Fei would assume the boss role.

"Does anyone else have any thoughts?" Jingkun asked again.

"I also think Da Fei is suitable." Chui Shui Ji thought briefly and also stepped forward.

Although he also has ideas about Causeway Bay's territory, he knows his own strength and knows what his subordinates are like.

He kept silent only to watch the situation.

Now that Chen Mo proposed Da Fei, he weighed the pros and cons and immediately followed suit.

If Da Fei becomes the Causeway Bay boss, he'll surely remember the favor.

Even if Da Fei ultimately doesn't become boss, he bears no responsibility, after all he voted.

In matters of human relations and seeking profit while avoiding harm, Chui Shui Ji is very clever.

After Chui Shui Ji agreed, Fei Lao Li's eyes flicked, and he echoed: "I also agree. Da Fei's troops are strong and his horse robust; once in Causeway Bay, maybe he can turn it into a clean sweep!"

Da Fei and he are both in North Point, but Da Fei reports directly to the main hall and doesn't obey this North Point boss's orders.

He has long wanted to drive Da Fei out of North Point.

Unfortunately Da Fei's strength isn't weak, and Jiang Tiansheng also won't let Da Fei move, so he has no way to deal with Da Fei.

Now that there's a chance to make Da Fei leave North Point, he definitely won't let it slip.

Although letting Da Fei become the Causeway Bay boss makes him a bit upset, that's all.

Now it's six votes to five; a majority of bosses have agreed to Chen Mo's proposal.

The remaining bosses, seeing the situation set, could only nod in agreement.

Fortunately Da Fei isn't anyone's subordinate, so no one gains or loses directly.

Only Chen Mo gains Da Fei's favor, but that's nothing special.

Okay, Da Fei, since everyone thinks you can handle this position, from now on, you're the head of Copper Gong Bay.

Come over and sit!

Although his own little brother didn't secure the position, Jingkun felt a bit displeased inside, but he didn't show it on his face, and still warmly welcomed Da Fei.

Congratulations, Brother Da Fei!

Congratulations, congratulations!

The big shots around, although jealous inside, still gave Da Fei a round of congratulations.

Thanks, everyone! I'll go sit over there!

After thanking the big shots beside him, Da Fei swiftly ran to the conference table and took the seat previously occupied by Da B.

Thanks, Dragon Head, thanks, all the heads. If anything comes up, just speak up.

Da Fei smiled until his face creased, wiped his hands on his clothes, repeatedly bowed to the crowd, and gave Chen Mo a grateful look.

Alright, the head of Copper Gong Bay is now decided; there's nothing else for today's meeting.

After you all go back, have your subordinates gather information and quickly find the killer of Da B.

After the meeting ended, Chen Mo didn't leave with his own subordinates and Shisanmei, but instead quietly went over to Jingkun's side.

Today's affairs, he still needs to give Jingkun an explanation; moreover, the matter of causing trouble for Jiang Tiansheng isn't finished yet!
