Chapter 186: Take Down Lao Gui Nao

~7 min read 1,386 words

When Big D's sister-in-law kept praising Chen Mo for his business sense, he guessed what she was thinking.

It so happened that he had the same idea, so he went along with it.

Chen Mo's laser disc factory could start official production immediately.

A large quantity of discs will be produced soon.

The market for the discs must also be prepared in advance.

Moreover, Great Prosperity's internal demand for karaoke machines is basically satisfied, so they should start selling outward.

Anyway, selling karaoke machines to anyone is a sale; selling to Big D first can give Big D a good deal.

Big D's sister-in-law is smart, but she is a woman and has little ambition.

Big D may have ambition, but he is straightforward, loyal, and not good at scheming.

Most importantly, Big D's sister-in-law can keep him in check.

The two of them are perfect partners.

Hearing that he could also buy machines from Chen Mo and open a KTV, Big D was even happier.

He clinked glasses repeatedly with Chen Mo and Shen Guodong.

Chen Mo's constitution is astonishing, and Shen Guodong, being from a military background, both have a much higher tolerance than Big D.

In the end, only Big D was drunk like a dead pig.

Shen Guodong's face was flushed, but he could still stay sober.

Chen Mo was almost as if nothing had happened.

Returning to the bar office, it was already past ten at night.

Shen Guodong had drunk a lot and was sent back by Chen Mo to rest.

Li Li smelled Chen Mo's strong alcohol scent and thoughtfully brought a cup of hot tea.

Chen Mo took two sips of tea and instructed, "Li Li, go make a call and have A Sheng and A Yi come over."

Lao Shu Ming works for Lao Gui Nao.

On the surface, Lao Gui Nao gets along fairly well with Big D, and behind the scenes there seems to be no feud; with Chen Mo there is no enmity at all, not even a distant connection.

He has no reason to sow discord between Chen Mo and Big D.

Chen Mo pondered and felt this matter resembled the handiwork of Liansheng Supreme Emperor Deng Fei.

Among Liansheng's old guys, only he wants to weaken Big D's strength.

As for why Chen Mo was chosen to deal with Big D, it might be worry that others lack strength, or fear they wouldn't dare provoke Liansheng.

Chen Mo even suspects a collusion between Jiang Tiansheng and Deng Fei, targeting both him and Big D.

After all, Jiang Tiansheng and Deng Fei both like to play power‑balance games.

The two are of the same sort.

Although Chen Mo cannot pinpoint the reason, it does not stop him from taking revenge.

Soon, Tian Yang Sheng and Tian Yang Yi arrived.

"A Sheng, A Yi, Liansheng has an uncle called Lao Gui Nao; do you know this person?"

The two exchanged a glance and shook their heads.

Lao Gui Nao is just an uncle with little real authority in Liansheng, almost like a retiree.

They haven't been in the Triad Society long, so not knowing him is normal.

Tian Yang Sheng asked, "Mo Ge, do you want us to eliminate him?"

Chen Mo shook his head, "Lao Gui Nao, and his subordinate leader Da Yong. First capture these two and ask why they burned my garment factory.

Then kill them later; make sure it's clean and no one finds out."

"Understood!"

Although Chen Mo is convinced this matter is tied to Deng Fei, he cannot act against Deng Fei yet.

He is the Supreme Emperor of Liansheng, a figure like the Divine Needle of the Sea.

If Deng Fei is killed, it will inevitably cause turmoil throughout Liansheng.

Eliminating Deng Fei is easy, but any leak would bring Chen Mo endless trouble.

In the movie, Lin Huai Le had Deng Fei perform the Invincible Fire Wheel twice.

But that was during the Dragon Head selection.

Everyone's attention was on the Dragon Head election, so they didn't investigate Deng Fei's death.

Chen Mo, to eliminate Deng Fei, naturally needs to pick a similar timing.

Chen Mo has already figured it out.

As long as Lao Gui Nao confirms that the provocation between him and Big D involves Deng Fei, when next year Big D and Lin Huai Le vie for the Dragon Head position, he will first eliminate Deng Fei, then help Big D claim the Dragon Head.

Then Deng Fei's death can be pinned on Big D, and Chen Mo can sell Big D a favor.

A win‑win.

The next day, Tian Yang Sheng and Tian Yang Yi went out during the day to meet Da Yong and Lao Gui Nao, and that night silently captured them.

On the third day, the two came before Chen Mo to report the outcome.

Sure enough, it was as Chen Mo expected.

According to Lao Gui Nao's confession, the matter was indeed ordered by Deng Fei.

He doesn't know why Deng Fei did it.

The disappearance of Lao Gui Nao and his subordinate Da Yong caused no ripple in the underworld.

After all, Gangdao sees short mules being cut down almost daily.

They're not big figures; dead is dead.

Even within Lian Sheng, although they held a meeting about it, they only shouted verbally that they would find the murderer to avenge Lao Gui Nao.

In reality, no one actually put effort into it.

In the end, there was no clue, the murderer couldn't be identified, and the matter fell apart.

Deng Fei, after learning that Da D captured Lao Shu Ming, began to suspect that Da D was behind it.

But he couldn't say it publicly.

After all, setting fire to Chen Mo's factory and framing Da D was not honorable; he feared that once Da D rose to power, he would be eliminated too.

If Lao Gui Nao is gone, so be it; ending the matter here is just right.

He only regretted that Chen Mo didn't fight Da D, causing his scheme to fall through.

And Da D and his spouse were convinced that Chen Mo was responsible.

Chen Mo had said he would investigate the matter himself, and they had also witnessed Chen Mo's skill in entering other people's places.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that the ones who did it were just two of Chen Mo's subordinates; otherwise, their regard for Chen Mo would have risen another level.

A few days later, it was again the day for the Triad Society to hold a grand meeting.

Jingkun sat in the Dragon Head's seat, his face showing unmistakable pride.

"Everyone, I have good news to announce.

A few days ago I went to Macau and reached an agreement with Mr. He, the gambling king. A hotel in Taipa has opened, and I secured the casino operating rights.

From now on, Great Prosperity will have another new casino in Macau, and it is larger than the original one."

"Impressive, Mr. Li, you just became Dragon Head not long ago, and you already negotiated such a big deal for the Triad Society—truly brilliant and mighty!

The Dragon Head position should have been yours earlier!"

Chui Shui Ji is always active on the front lines of flattery.

Since Shan Ji was eliminated, Chui Shui Ji has been uneasy because he got money that day, fearing Jingkun might find out and deal with him.

Now that he finally found an opportunity to show loyalty, he naturally spares no effort.

Fei Lao, Li Ma Wang, Jian and a few others were also not far behind, beginning to flatter vigorously.

Unfortunately, in flattery, both in speed and skill, they were a step behind Chui Shui Ji.

Nevertheless, securing a casino operating right in Macau is indeed a great boon.

Macau's casinos are not comparable to the gambling stalls that just arrived here; the monthly profit is worlds apart.

One more casino means the Triad Society earns a lot more money.

More earnings for the Triad Society means that the leaders here and Da Di at year‑end can receive a larger share.

Everyone was extremely pleased.

PS: Can I take a day off to sort out the outline? Writing without an outline is too exhausting; I'm stuck on the story every day.
