Chapter 21: Buy One, Get One Free

"Ah Jin, what's going on here?"

"Mo Ge, this is the Jimi you're looking for." Gao Jin pointed at a young man who was seventy percent like a dark-skinned guy.

"The other one is called Fei Ji; the men grabbed him along the way."

Chen Mo looked at the other young man.

Yo, isn't this Zha Zha Hui!

Just the temperament was a bit off.

Although Jimi was being held down, he was very docile and didn't struggle.

Fei Ji was the complete opposite; if a few of the younger brothers hadn't held him tight, he probably would have stretched his neck to bite someone.

"Alright, let them go first! They can't turn things upside down here."

Hearing Chen Mo's words, the few younger brothers released the two.

As soon as he was let go, Fei Ji immediately lunged at Chen Mo, apparently trying to capture the chief to subdue the rebels.

Before Fei Ji could get close, Gao Jin grabbed Fei Ji by the shoulder from behind, spun him around, and flung him away.

Before Fei Ji could get up, Gao Jin quickly walked over to him and kicked him in the stomach.

Fei Ji slid two or three meters backward on the ground, curled up and lying on the ground, unable to get up.

That kick from Gao Jin had knocked the wind out of him.

"You'd better behave yourself." Gao Jin said coldly to Fei Ji on the ground.

"Ah Jin, stop fighting for now. Who's going to tell me first, what the hell is going on here?"

Chen Mo still hadn't figured out the situation.

He had only asked Gao Jin to bring Jimi over, but it seemed like they had grabbed him, and even brought Fei Ji along too.

After an explanation from the younger brothers, Chen Mo finally understood what had happened.

Originally, the younger brothers had indeed only gone to find Jimi.

But since they weren't from the same Triad Society, and Jimi didn't know what Chen Mo wanted with him, he didn't plan to come.

To get Chen Mo's task done, the few younger brothers were about to tie Jimi up and bring him, when Fei Ji happened to pass by and saw them.

Although Fei Ji wasn't familiar with Jimi, he knew Jimi was from the He Lian Sheng, so he stepped in to help and started fighting with Chen Mo's few younger brothers.

Although Fei Ji was a good fighter, Chen Mo's younger brothers were also brawlers, and they outnumbered him.

In the end, Fei Ji, outnumbered, was captured along with Jimi.

Chen Mo frowned and asked, "Where did you grab them? Did anyone see?"

Going to someone else's turf and grabbing their people could cause a lot of trouble later.

"Mo Ge, we checked. The place where we grabbed them wasn't on He Lian Sheng's turf, and no one saw anything."

Hearing the younger brother say this, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at these younger brothers with injuries on their faces, Chen Mo was speechless.

So many people, and Fei Ji still managed to injure their faces.

He took out a few thousand-dollar bills and tossed them to the younger brothers.

"You guys go see a doctor with this. Next time, use your brains when you do things!"

"Thanks, Mo Ge!"

The few younger brothers took the money and happily left the office.

See a doctor? It was just a minor injury. This few thousand bucks was enough for them to have a good time for one night.

"You're Jimi?"

"Yes. Does Mo Ge have something you want to see me about?"

Seeing that Chen Mo wasn't making things difficult for him and Fei Ji, Jimi had nothing to fear.

"Are you interested in coming to work for me?" Chen Mo got straight to the point.

Jimi frowned slightly. He didn't like being in the Triad Society at all; he just wanted to use his status in the society to do business.

"I already have a boss!" Jimi refused.

Although who he followed didn't make much difference to him, you couldn't just change bosses casually.

"I know, Officer Sen, right!

But it seems to me you don't really like being in the Triad Society. You even go to university classes. You want to do business, don't you?

As long as you come work for me, you don't have to worry about Triad Society matters. You just need to help me manage the legitimate businesses.

What do you think?"

Seeing that Jimi still hadn't reacted, Chen Mo continued to sweeten the deal.

"If you're willing to come work for me, I'll give you a monthly salary of ten thousand. If business is good at the end of the year, I can give you a ten percent share of the profits. How about it?"

Jimi was tempted. A salary of ten thousand was much more than he made from his street stall.

"What kind of business does Mo Ge do?"

Chen Mo smiled and said, "I don't have any business right now."

"Are you messing with me?" Jimi was a bit angry, but he didn't dare do anything to Chen Mo.

"Don't get worked up yet."

Seeing Jimi angry, Chen Mo continued.

"I know you've been selling knockoffs at Nüren Jie recently. To be honest, I also think the knockoff business has potential.

I'm planning to open a knockoff factory, but I don't have time to manage it myself, so I need you to help me."

Jimi was well aware of the profit margins in the knockoff business. If he had the capital, he would have wanted to open a factory too.

Especially since the conditions Chen Mo offered were simply too good. A monthly salary of ten thousand and a ten percent share of the profits at the end of the year—this kind of deal was hard to find even with a lantern.

"But my boss's side......"

"Even if the conditions are good, if you can't get past the checkpoint, it's all just talk."

"Don't worry about this, I'll take care of things with Guan Zisen on my end. As long as you agree, tomorrow I'll take you to meet Guan Zisen to discuss the checkpoint."

"Okay, thanks Mo Ge, I'll definitely do a good job!"

Seeing Jimi agree, Chen Mo turned his gaze onto Fei Ji.

"You're called Fei Ji?"

"Yes!"

Fei Ji had already climbed back up.

Having realized the gap between himself and Gao Jin, Fei Ji no longer acted rashly.

He has no brains, but he's not stupid.

He doesn't go looking for trouble just to get beaten up.

"Are you also with Continuous Victory? Do you have a boss?"

If Fei Ji doesn't have a boss right now, Chen Mo would still be willing to take him in, but if he already has a boss, then forget it.

Even after becoming a boss's subordinate, discussing the checkpoint still costs money.

Jimi is worth spending money on, but Fei Ji is not.

"No, I haven't had a chance to become a boss's subordinate yet."

Good, that saves money.

"You're not bad at fighting; are you interested in coming over to join me?"

Although Fei Ji lacks brains, his skills are decent, he's obedient, quiet, and having him around is quite suitable.

Many everyday chores can be assigned to Fei Ji.

Of course, Chen Mo knows that Fei Ji most wants to stand out; if Fei Ji does well enough, Chen Mo doesn't mind giving him a chance.

"Thanks, boss!"

Fei Ji immediately agreed.

Anyway, in United Victory he's just a blue lantern—no boss, and no one oversees the checkpoint.

Now, by following Chen Mo he immediately has a boss who can cover him, and Fei Ji naturally knows what to choose.

Chen Mo pulled out eight gold bulls from his bag, didn't wrap them in red paper, and handed them directly to Fei Ji.

"No red paper—just consider this your welcome red envelope!"

"Thanks, Mo Ge!"

Chen Mo turned his head and said to Jimi: "Jimi, after you finish discussing the checkpoint with Guan Zisen tomorrow, you'll get one too."

"Thanks, Mo Ge!"

It's only eight thousand dollars; Jimi isn't the slightest bit envious.

He is much smarter than Fei Ji, and he knows his future will definitely be brighter than Fei Ji's.

In the evening, Chen Mo received a call from Huang Bingyao.

"'Boss, today the number nine horse is in top condition; do you plan to buy three thousand or five thousand?'"

"'I don't want the number nine horse; I want the number six horse!'"

"'The number three horse isn't bad either; do you want to buy the number three horse?'"

"'I also don't want the number three horse; I just want the number six horse.'"

"'Little brother, you've made a great contribution!' After exchanging the code phrase, Huang Bingyao shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone."

"'How big a deal is it?' Chen Mo said indifferently."

He also had no intention of returning to the police force.

"'It's bigger than all your achievements from the past five years combined!"

"'We found over ten million of white powder in the videotape factory!"

"'The five hundred thousand yuan informant fee has already been deposited into your previous account!"

"'Got it, how's Wei Jixiang doing?' Chen Mo asked casually."

"'He, he's in bad shape. Although we know he's just a scapegoat, all the evidence points to him, and his charge has now been set."

"'In a few days they'll go through the trial process; he's likely to get a sentence of over ten years."

Huang Bingyao shook his head as he spoke; he also thought Wei Jixiang was quite pitiful.

"'Knowing they're just a scapegoat, yet you give such a heavy sentence? You cops are really terrible!"

"'Damn, what you cops? You're not a cop yourself? Next time I see you I'll definitely crush your head."

Huang Bingyao was so angered by Chen Mo's words that he jumped up and down.
