Chapter 51: Jingkun's Kind Heart

As Chen Mo's words came out one by one, Da B's expression grew increasingly grim.

The other big shots and the senior members present also cast a teasing glance at Da B.

At that moment, Da B felt the gazes of the crowd like knives, stabbing straight into him.

Even Jiang Tiansheng's face changed.

Today's trouble caused by Da B was originally his own intention.

Chen Mo's strength has surged, and he has resumed the A‑grade counterfeit business, earning a good amount of money.

He originally wanted to use this matter to strike at Chen Mo, to blunt Chen Mo's edge.

If he could get rid of Da Tou, who is under Chen Mo, it would also weaken part of Chen Mo's strength.

He never expected Da B to act so inhumanly, treating the subordinate who served prison time for him so badly.

Now, even Jiang Tiansheng cannot continue to target Chen Mo.

Chen Mo didn't care about Da B's expression at all and continued, "Brother Da B, I only went to his countryside home to invite him a few months after Da Tou left Chi Zhu.

That doesn't count as poaching from your men, does it? After all, you never treated him as your own!"

Finishing, Chen Mo turned his gaze to Chen Hao Nan, who sat behind Da B, and said, "Chen Hao Nan, you keep saying Da Tou is your brother, but in these three years have you ever cared about this brother of yours?

As far as I know, when you first joined Great Prosperity, it was Da Tou who taught you how to box, right?

Da Tou is practically half your master; if you hadn't seen Da Tou on my turf, you probably wouldn't even recall having such a brother."

The assembly members looked at Chen Hao Nan again.

He spends all day proclaiming his loyalty, and yet this is how his loyalty shows up?

Chen Hao Nan now wishes he could crawl into a crack in the ground; he dares not face the crowd's gaze.

Chen Mo looked around and said, "Mr. Jiang, esteemed elders, I think I've made myself clear; as for right and wrong, I leave the judgment to all of you.

"What else is there to say? The elder's lack of righteousness doesn't let the junior find his own way! I think Chen Mo is right, and Da Tou is right too," Han Bin was the first to voice support for Chen Mo.

He is now doing the A‑grade counterfeit business with Chen Mo, with large sums flowing in, so of course he backs Chen Mo; besides, Chen Mo was already in the right.

Jingkun looked at Da B with contempt and sneered, "Da B, as the boss you ignore the junior who served prison time for you, yet you have the nerve to say he betrayed the boss? That's absurd."

The others said nothing, but each shook their heads silently, their gazes at Da B full of contempt.

Da B's actions were indeed a bit excessive.

When a junior serves prison time for the boss, which one doesn't receive settlement money, family support, and a proper position after release?

Take Chen Mo, who served a year for Thirteen Sister; after his release, Thirteen Sister promoted Chen Mo to a senior position.

If every boss acted like Da B, who would still be willing to serve prison time for the boss?

"Da B, this time you were indeed at fault; let's not bring this up again."

Jiang Tiansheng, seeing that everyone had an opinion about Da B, also scolded Da B.

Turning his head back to Chen Mo, he said, "Chen Mo, you are not wrong in this matter; Da Tou's situation with you is also understandable."

With Jiang Tiansheng's words finished, the matter was considered settled.

Only Da B's wounded world was resolved, oh, and also Chen Hao Nan.

Now Chen Hao Nan's expression is as grim as Da B's.

Then came the usual sequence of accounting, paying, and disbursing funds.

Except for Thirteen Sister, who, because Chen Mo captured three streets and paid over a million extra, saw no major changes for the others.

"Thirteen Sister, I'm truly envious that you have such a sharp junior like Chen Mo; capturing three commercial streets in a month is just explosive profit!"

"Brother Ji, you flatter me; it's all thanks to Chen Mo's ability. I, as the boss, merely bask in his glory!"

Thirteen Sister, praised by Brother Ji, smiled so broadly her mouth couldn't close.

The junior is both ambitious, can earn money, and upholds loyalty.

Today she arrived at the meeting riding the tiger‑head carriage Chen Mo gave her, already drawing envy from several big shots.

When she mentioned the vehicle was a gift from Chen Mo, it sparked a wave of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Jiang Tiansheng smiled brightly on the side, but inside he was seething.

Why isn't Chen Mo considered a member of the assembly?

Looking at Da B's subordinate, the Causeway Bay Five Tigers, none are ambitious; even Chen Hao Nan, whom Da B constantly praises, still falls far short of Chen Mo.

Jiang Tiansheng grew even more angry inside.

"Alright everyone, quiet down," Jiang Tiansheng lightly tapped the table.

The others, seeing this, gradually fell silent.

"There's been a recent issue over in Macau. Someone called Fei Gou, for unknown reasons, has shown up at our Great Prosperity casino, demanding a thirty‑percent commission from us."

"What do the other gangs say?" a big shot asked.

"We don't care about other gangs, but Great Prosperity will not comply.

Who among you is willing to take this task and eliminate Fei Gou?"

Jiang Tiansheng smiled and looked at the big shots.

Although he intended to assign it to Chen Hao Nan, such matters still need to go through the proper procedures at the meeting.

Otherwise people would think this Dragon Head merely occupies a seat without doing any work.

"Why not give it to Chen Mo?" Brother Ji said, "Now the sharpest among Great Prosperity is Chen Mo, known as the Reborn Overlord. Taking down a petty Fei Gou is certainly no problem."

Jiang Tiansheng looked at Chen Mo, "Chen Mo, what do you say?"

"Mr. Jiang, I follow the Triad Society's assignment!" Chen Mo replied calmly.

Jiang Tiansheng nodded, without explicitly agreeing, and silently gave Da B a signal.

Da B understood immediately and spoke up for Chen Hao Nan, "Mr. Jiang, I think we should give it to my subordinate Chen Hao Nan; he's been with me for over ten years and is highly capable."

Jiang Tiansheng nodded again and asked, "Any other candidates?"

Jingkun said, however: "Mr. Jiang, I think Chen Hao Nan and Ah Mo are quite suitable."

However, Ah Mo now has quite a bit of territory and is a Red Pole of the Triad Society; it would be better to give this opportunity to Chen Hao Nan, which would also let him earn some merit and rise up—he can't be a low‑level lackey all his life.

Jingkun's words left everyone present somewhat surprised.

Da B had no idea what medicine Jingkun was selling from his gourd.

Jingkun has always been on bad terms with him, so why would he voluntarily speak up for Chen Hao Nan? There must be some conspiracy here.

Seeing Da B staring at him sternly, Jingkun continued: "What are you looking at? I just feel sorry for Chen Hao Nan."

We all came from Ci Yun Shan, yet Ah Nan has followed you, the boss, for over ten years and is still a low‑level lackey—I really don't know how you've managed to be the boss.

"Hmph! You'd better not play tricks." Da B glanced at Jingkun, then turned away and stopped looking at him.

Chen Hao Nan looked at Jingkun with gratitude: "Thanks, Brother Kun!"

Jiang Tiansheng pondered a moment, then said: "What Ah Kun says also makes sense. Let's leave this to Ah Nan to handle! When you've done it well, I'll personally give you an official appointment."

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang—I'll definitely get the job done!"

Chen Hao Nan jumped to his feet excitedly, bowed to Jiang Tiansheng, then gave Chen Mo a provocative look.

His few lackeys looked at Chen Hao Nan with excitement, happy that he was about to step forward.

Chen Mo looked at their demeanor, feeling no disappointment at missing out on the task; instead, a faint smile appeared on his face.

Chen Hao Nan didn't even think about why Jingkun would be so kind to help him.
