Chapter 174: Deal Reached
Although the people present were somewhat tempted, they all forced themselves not to reach for the money.
Han Bin looked at Shan Ji and Chen Hao Nan and said, "Five million isn't a small amount, but it's not that easy to get."
How can you guarantee that you'll definitely be able to take down Jingkun?
If we take the money and you ultimately fail to take down Jingkun, what then?
I don't want to ruin my reputation over this mere five million and end up offending Jingkun.
Han Bin's words made the few restless leaders calm down again.
Right, if they fail, what about Jingkun settling the score later?
Given Jingkun's strength, none of the leaders present are his match; probably only Han Bin could spar with Jingkun.
Chen Hao Nan said, "Bosses, I've already prepared a thorough plan for this. I can't disclose the details, but I can assure you we will definitely take down Jingkun."
Han Bin shook his head and said, "If you put it that way, it's hard for me to agree. I can't take such a huge risk for a mere five million."
Fei Lao Li couldn't help mocking, "Exactly, you can't even hit a fat dog in Macau, how dare you boast shamelessly about killing Jingkun?"
Han Bin was trying to leverage the chance for more profit, while Fei Lao Li simply wanted to disgust Chen Hao Nan.
"Fei Lao Li, what do you mean!" Shan Ji slammed the table and stood up.
When he went to Macau to kill a fat dog, Shan Ji was delayed by flirting, and the incident has become the humiliation he least wants to mention.
Now he feels he's finally made a name for himself, but Fei Lao Li brought it up in public, instantly making him feel deeply insulted.
"What's wrong, did I say something wrong?" Fei Lao Li remained arrogant.
"Damn it, believe it or not, I'll take you out right now!" Shan Ji couldn't help pulling out his gun, pointing at Fei Lao Li.
When Shan Ji drew his gun, everyone present changed expression.
Xing Shu even slammed the table directly.
"Enough! All of you be honest with me!"
Among the leaders present, Han Bin is the strongest, while Xing Shu has the longest seniority and highest rank.
When he speaks, everyone gives him a bit of face.
"Let's talk business, don't jump to violence at every turn."
Chen Hao Nan also grabbed Shan Ji, "Shan Ji, put the gun away!"
Shan Ji reluctantly put the gun away.
Xing Shu continued, "Let me make a suggestion. Chen Hao Nan, Shan Ji, if you want revenge on Jingkun, we can stay out of it. But you're not members of Great Prosperity, so you can't touch Jingkun's territory."
"After you take down Jingkun, we'll split his territory evenly among us. How does that sound?"
When Xing Shu said that, every leader except Thirteen Sister and Han Bin had their eyes light up.
Jingkun's territory isn't small.
The nine of them could each get a whole street and still have leftovers.
Its value far exceeds five million.
"No problem!" Chen Hao Nan nodded in agreement.
He never intended to seize Jingkun's territory.
With Shan Ji's men, taking down Jingkun is possible, but they can't hold Jingkun's territory at all.
"In that case, let us know before you move against Jingkun, and we'll send people to take over his territory."
"With this arrangement, do you have anything else to say?"
"I think Xing Shu's arrangement is great. I agree." Jing Ma spoke first.
"I agree as well." The Crown Prince also agreed.
Chui Shui Ji also raised his hand, "Xing Shu truly lives up to being a senior, his consideration is thorough. I agree."
One after another, the leaders expressed their stance, all agreeing to Xing Shu's proposal.
Han Bin and Thirteen Sister exchanged glances again.
They had already realized that Xing Shu's proposal seemed to give the leaders profit, but in fact it was supporting Chen Hao Nan.
Unwittingly, Chen Hao Nan's goal had already been achieved.
Actually, Xing Shu didn't want to do this either.
He truly didn't expect that Chen Hao Nan and Shan Ji were so unreliable; even if the leaders couldn't be persuaded, his own temper would be hard to control.
If he didn't step in, the whole matter would fall apart today.
"Thirteen Sister, Han Bin, what do you say?"
Among the leaders present, only Thirteen Sister and Han Bin had not voiced their stance.
Thirteen Sister glanced at Xing Shu, then at Chen Hao Nan, and said, "I'm a woman, I'm not interested in territory.
But I want ten million!"
"What Thirteen Sister said is also what I want to say. I don't need Wang Jiao's territory, but I want fifteen million. Ten million is mine, five million belongs to my brother Konglong, okay?"
"Why so?" Shan Ji snapped to his feet.
He doesn't care about dividing Jingkun's territory, but the money is his to pay!
Xing Shu frowned at Thirteen Sister and Han Bin, his eyes showing displeasure.
Everything was already settled, what nonsense are you two causing now!
Thirteen Sister met Xing Shu's gaze and slowly said, "I told you, I'm not interested in Wang Jiao's territory; guarding my Bolan Street is enough for me.
You all split Wang Jiao's territory, I just take a bit more money, that's not unfair, right?"
Han Bin also said, "Exactly, I'm not taking any of Wang Jiao's territory either. Counting it out, without me and Thirteen Sister, each of you can get at least two streets, while Konglong and I only take fifteen million, so you all still profit."
Hearing Han Bin's words, the other leaders nodded, finding it quite reasonable.
Hearing Han Bin say that, the other bosses all nodded, thinking it quite reasonable.
Xing Shu was a bit unhappy, but he didn't say much more.
Anyway, the money isn't coming out of his pocket.
Only Shan Ji's face turned a dark, livid shade.
But things have come to this point—45 million have already been taken out, so taking another 15 million out is nothing.
"Fine, I'll put up this money." Shan Ji gritted his teeth and had his lackey bring over another box of cash.
"In that case, let's settle this matter as such; I hope what we discuss here today doesn't leak out.
"Otherwise, nobody will have a good outcome."
"Don't worry, Xing Shu; now we're all grasshoppers on the same rope. We won't go spouting off outside."
"Nobody would foolishly tip off Jingkun."
Now everyone's interests are tied together, and they're all waiting to carve up Jingkun's territory.
If the news leaks out and Jingkun doesn't end up dead, everyone here will become his target for revenge, and nobody will be able to escape.
The matter settled, they hadn't even eaten, and everyone left with their money, each going their own way.
We didn't come here to eat in the first place.
On the way back, Han Bin and Shisan Mei rode in the same vehicle.
"Han Bin, do you feel that Xing Shu is acting a bit off?"
"Hmm, judging by his appearance today, he's probably one of Jiang Tiansheng's people. Besides, that's normal—he followed Jiang Zhen to conquer the realm back then; how could he betray the Jiang family?"
"That's true." Shisan Mei nodded, "I should still tell Ah Mo about today's events first. I'm worried that when Chen Hao Nan and his gang move against Jingkun, they'll count Ah Mo in as well. Let Ah Mo prepare early."
"You're right; we need to have Ah Mo be careful. Today Shan Ji casually pulled out a gun, and his underlings don't look like they'd be skimping on arms either—they're probably armed as well."
