Chapter 428

"Gold coin balance: 1010."

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

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

After all, Ni Ni Yongyao's targets now were at the very least regional 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 the two of them, Ding Qing and Li Zicheng, walked into the office one after the other.

"Mr. Ni."

After Ding Qing and Li Zicheng 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 Jiang, and Director Gao. No one else in the police force knows my identity."

Li Zicheng reported.

"Very good."

Ni Ni Yongyao nodded slightly.

"Li Zicheng, tell me about the current situation in the Goldmoon Group."

Ni Ni Yongyao lit a cigar and instructed.

"Yes."

Li Zicheng nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "In a few days, when the group can't find Shi Dong, they will realize that Shi Dong has met with an accident; when that time comes, 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 is considered an elder; he was originally the boss of the Diri faction, but after losing the struggle, he has been in a semi-retired state.

Zhang Zhang Shouji has no real power and only holds a nominal title, so there's 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 has always been managed by Li Li Zhongjiu, and his subordinates are strong and his influence is extremely powerful.

If we go head-to-head with Li Li Zhongjiu, the chances of winning are not high, but Li Li Zhongjiu is arrogant and has a solitary personality, so dealing with him shouldn't be difficult.

Besides this, no one else in the Goldmoon Group is worth worrying about."

Li Zicheng spoke eloquently, clearly having prepared long ago.

The Goldmoon Group is divided into three factions: the North Gate faction led by Ding Qing, the In-Tiger faction led by Shi Dong, and the defeated Diri faction.

The three gangs merged into the Goldmoon Group, after which the Diri faction lost the struggle and was quickly annexed by the North Gate faction and the In-Tiger faction, and Zhang Zhang Shouji became a mere figurehead.

Now that Shi Dong is dead, all the power of the In-Tiger faction will be held by Li Li Zhongjiu.

"Ding Qing, take care of Li Li Zhongjiu."

Ni Ni Yongyao said indifferently; no matter how powerful Li Li Zhongjiu was in Li Zicheng's words, to Ni Ni Yongyao, he was just a small leader, not worth him spending even a bit of thought on.

"Yes, Mr. Ni."

Ding Qing immediately bowed and agreed.

Goldmoon 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 moment, these seats were filled with people; these people were the core members of the Goldmoon Group.

However, only the Chairman's seat was empty.

"The meeting is being held today because of the Chairman's disappearance."

Zhang Zhang Shouji stood up and looked at everyone as he spoke.

"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 still cannot be contacted."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said: "I suspect the Chairman was kidnapped and perhaps has met with misfortune."

"Zhang Zhang Shouji, if you can't speak properly, shut your mouth. 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 Goldmoon Group, seriously at all.

The one speaking was Li Li Zhongjiu; he leaned back in his chair, looking at Zhang Zhang Shouji with disdain.

"Li Li Zhongjiu, you..."

Zhang Zhang Shouji was so angry he couldn't speak for a moment; although he knew he was now powerless, he had never been ridiculed in public like this before.

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

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

Li Li Zhongjiu said.

"That's easy to say. The police can't find the Chairman's whereabouts, and we haven't received any information from kidnappers for such a long time, which means the Chairman has likely been murdered."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said: "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 spoken, most of the people present nodded, and even Li Li Zhongjiu didn't object.

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

"I think there's no need to delay any longer; let's elect a candidate at the temporary regular meeting next week."

Zhang Zhang Shouji said.

"I agree with the seniors."

Ding Qing said as he looked at Li Li Zhongjiu and asked: "What do you think?"

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

Li Li Zhongjiu snorted and said.

"Since that's the case, 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 be going first."

At this moment, Li Li Zhongjiu stood up and said: "I have some busy business."

"I say, it's rare for us to get together; why don't you have a meal with the seniors before leaving?"

Ding Qing stopped 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 wasn't angered by Li Li Zhongjiu; instead, he 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.

"Don't trouble yourself with that."

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 wasn't just a one-day thing, and everyone was already used to it.

Before, when Chairman Shi Dong was there, he could suppress Li Li Zhongjiu; now that Shi Dong was gone, Li Li Zhongjiu had completely let himself go, not taking anyone seriously.

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

"Big Brother."

An 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 Goldmoon Group headquarters.

Half an hour later.

A construction site with more than a dozen high-rise buildings; the main structure had been built, but the exterior walls and door and window glass hadn't been installed, making them look 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.
