"Gold coin balance: 1010."

Adding the three hundred gold coins obtained from resolving Gold Gate Group Chairman Shi Dong earlier, the balance of gold coins in Ni Ni Yongyao's hands had increased again.

Compared to a few months ago when he had just returned to Huigang, the speed at which Ni Ni Yongyao obtained gold coins now was much faster.

After all, Ni Ni Yongyao's targets now were at the very least big bosses.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Outside the office, Ding Qing knocked on the door; although he was the owner here, he acted like a guest at this moment.

"Come in."

Only when he heard Ni Ni Yongyao's voice did Ding Qing push open the door, and he and Li Zi walked into the office one after the other.

"Mr. Ni."

After Ding Qing and the other entered, they first stood still in front of Ni Ni Yongyao and bowed in greeting.

Only then did they begin to report.

"Mr. Ni, according to your instructions, I have already resolved Song Song Meina, Section Chief Kang, and Bureau Chief Gao. No one else in the police force knows my identity."

Li Zi reported.

"Very good."

Ni Ni Yongyao nodded slightly.

"Li Zi, tell me about the current situation of the Gold Gate Group."

Ni Ni Yongyao lit a cigar and instructed.

"Yes."

Li Zi nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "In a few days, if the group can't find Shi Dong, they will realize that Shi Dong has met with an accident. By then, the group will inevitably fall into chaos; this is the best time to seize power and rise to the top."

"The group's number two figure is Zhang Zhang Shouji, who can be considered an elder. He was originally the boss of the Emperor Sun faction, but later failed in the struggle and is already in a state of semi-retirement."

"Zhang Zhang Shouji has no real power and only holds a nominal title, so there is no need to worry about him."

"The one who really needs to be worried about is the number four figure, Li Li Zhongjiu. He is Shi Dong's trusted fierce general. After Shi Dong became chairman, the Tiger faction was always managed by Li Li Zhongjiu, and his subordinates are strong and his power is extremely great."

"If you go head-to-head with Li Li Zhongjiu, the chances of winning are not high, but Li Li Zhongjiu is arrogant and conceited, and his personality is aloof, so dealing with him is not difficult."

"Besides this, the others in the Gold Gate Group are not worth worrying about."

Li Zi spoke eloquently, obviously having prepared long ago.

The Gold Gate Group was divided into three factions: the North Gate faction led by Ding Qing, the Tiger faction led by Shi Dong, and the defeated Emperor Sun faction.

The three gangs merged into the Gold Gate Group, and later the Emperor Sun faction failed in the struggle and was quickly swallowed up by the North Gate faction and the Tiger faction, so Zhang Zhang Shouji became a mere decoration.

Now that Shi Dong was dead, all the power of the Tiger faction would be held by Li Li Zhongjiu.

"Ding Qing, handle Li Li Zhongjiu."

Ni Ni Yongyao said lightly. No matter how powerful Li Li Zhongjiu was in Li Zi's words, to Ni Ni Yongyao, he was just a small leader, not worth him spending a single shred of thought on.

"Yes, Mr. Ni."

Ding Qing immediately bowed and agreed.

Gold Gate Group.

Group headquarters, conference room.

In the wide conference room, a circular conference table was placed in the center, with a total of dozens of seats.

At this time, these seats were full of people; these people were the backbone members of the Gold Gate Group.

However, only the chairman's seat was empty.

"The meeting held today is regarding the disappearance of the chairman."

Zhang Zhang Shouji stood up and looked at everyone and said.

"After the chairman left his lover's residence a few days ago, he encountered a car accident, but only the car and the bodyguard's corpse were found at the scene; the chairman's whereabouts are unknown, and he cannot be contacted to this day."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said: "I suspect the chairman was kidnapped, and perhaps he has already met with misfortune."

"Zhang Zhang Shouji, if you can't speak, shut up. Are you happy that the chairman is missing?"

As soon as Zhang Zhang Shouji finished speaking, a cold voice rang out, not taking Zhang Zhang Shouji, the number two figure of the Gold Gate Group, seriously at all.

The one speaking was none other than Li Li Zhongjiu, who was leaning back in his chair, looking at Zhang Zhang Shouji with disdain in his eyes.

"Li Li Zhongjiu, you..."

Zhang Zhang Shouji was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment; although he knew he had no power or influence now, he had never been ridiculed like this in public before.

At least when Shi Dong was there before, he would give him superficial respect.

"There is no need to talk nonsense; the most important thing now is to find the chairman."

Li Li Zhongjiu said.

"Easier said than done. The police can't find the chairman's whereabouts, and there has been no information from the kidnappers for such a long time, which means the chairman has likely already been murdered."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said: "Regardless of whether the chairman is missing or murdered, the group having no leader is the problem that needs to be solved most. I propose to elect an acting chairman as soon as possible."

After these words were said, most of the people present nodded one after another, and even Li Li Zhongjiu did not object.

After all, a behemoth like the Gold Gate Group really couldn't be without a leader; otherwise, external forces would swarm in.

"I think there is no need to drag it out any longer; elect a candidate at the temporary regular meeting next week."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said.

"I have the same opinion as the seniors."

Ding Qing said, looking at Li Li Zhongjiu, and asked: "What do you think?"

"What do I have to object to? Electing a temporary chairman is just right to mobilize all the group's power to find the chairman's whereabouts."

Li Li Zhongjiu snorted and said.

"Since that's the case, then let's assume everyone agrees."

Zhang Zhang Shouji looked at Li Li Zhongjiu and Ding Qing and said.

"If the discussion is about done, then I'll leave first."

At this time, Li Li Zhongjiu stood up and said: "My business is a bit busy."

"I say, it's rare to gather together, why not have a meal with the seniors before leaving?"

Ding Qing called out to Li Li Zhongjiu and said.

"Forget about eating. Honestly, we aren't the kind of relationship that can eat and drink shoulder-to-shoulder. Looking at you, can I even swallow my food?"

Li Li Zhongjiu said coldly.

"You speak so harshly, have you thought about what to do in the future?"

Ding Qing was not provoked by Li Li Zhongjiu, but instead looked at the other party with a smile. In Ding Qing's view, Li Li Zhongjiu was already a dead man, so naturally, there was no need to be angry with a dead person.

"That doesn't need to trouble you."

Li Li Zhongjiu looked at his watch and then left the conference room.

Others looked at each other, but they weren't too surprised; after all, Li Li Zhongjiu's self-centered personality hadn't been for just a day or two, and everyone was used to it.

Before, when Chairman Shi Dong was there, he could suppress Li Li Zhongjiu, but now without Shi Dong, Li Li Zhongjiu had completely let himself go, not taking anyone seriously.

Li Li Zhongjiu took the elevator to the parking garage, where a Mercedes was already waiting.

"Big Brother."

The underling opened the car door for Li Li Zhongjiu.

Li Li Zhongjiu sat in the back row, the car started quickly, and drove away from the Gold Gate Group headquarters.

Half an hour later.

A construction site, where there were more than a dozen high-rise buildings, the main structure had been built, but the exterior walls and window glass had not been installed, looking bare.

The car stopped under one of the buildings.

Li Li Zhongjiu got out of the car, walked straight in, took a simple elevator, and arrived at the 29th floor.

"Big Brother!"

Many underlings were standing on the floor, and seeing Li Li Zhongjiu come over, they bowed and greeted him one after another.

Li Li Zhongjiu nodded casually.

The entire floor only had the necessary load-bearing structure, and coupled with the lack of doors and windows, it was unobstructed and extremely transparent.

Li Li Zhongjiu liked the feeling here very much, specifically moved his office here, and also set up a small bar, often coming over to drink or play golf on weekdays.

Li Li Zhongjiu walked to the center of the floor, where a set of imported sofas was placed.
