Chapter 195

Jiang Tian Sheng is now full of vigor, pleased with himself, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

Prosperity, under his leadership, now boasts the grand scene of sixteen leaders.

How long will this good mood last? Immediately he thought of the hospitalized Ji Ge.

Looking at the crowd, he asked: "Now Ji Ge is in the hospital, the Western District cannot be left unattended; everyone, speak up with any ideas you have."

Why Ji Ge went to the hospital—several smart people could roughly guess.

As a smart person, Handsome Kun immediately spoke up: "Ji Ge can't handle affairs now; let's pick a big boss from the Western District hall to take charge of the Western District for now, and we'll discuss further after Ji Ge leaves the hospital."

"Damn!"

Li Xin cursed under his breath: if a big boss is chosen now to take charge, Ji Ge's hope of leaving the hospital would be an extravagant hope!

No matter what! We can't just watch Ji Ge kick the bucket! After all, they do have some friendship.

He quickly said: "I think we should let Ji Ge take a post in the main hall; he's not young anymore, working there as Uncle Bo's assistant would also be good."

Bo Shu gave Li Xin a pleased glance and added: "A Xin, you're right; A Ji lost too much blood this time, and we don't know if he'll be able to handle affairs in the future, so let him go to the ceremonial hall."

"I'm also getting old, I won't be able to last a few more years; the gang's rules, A Ji knows them well—let him stay in the ceremonial hall for two years, then take over my position."

Jiang Tian Sheng nodded and said: "Since A Xin and Bo Shu have said so, let Ji Ge take a post in the ceremonial hall."

"The leader of the Western District hall will be chosen from among the big bosses of the Western District."

"After the meeting disperses, Bo Shu will inform Ji Ge and have him nominate candidates."

Hearing this, Li Xin thought: Jiang Tian Sheng still values old ties, giving Ji Ge a dignified position so he can finally scrape together some retirement money.

After the meeting broke up, Handsome Kun detained Li Xin; the two got into the car, while Jian Guo, being perceptive, got out and stood guard outside.

Handsome Kun explained: "A Xin, it's not that I absolutely must have Ji Ge's life, but he relies on his seniority and keeps meddling, and that will get him killed."

"That's why I've come out to act as this stronghold; I have no choice—my several companies are at a critical juncture, and I can't let him sabotage me!"

Handsome Kun explained all this to Li Xin because they are now business partners, and he doesn't want to create resentment.

Part of Film City will soon be completed and usable; we can't let this small matter cause unpleasantness.

At the same time, they value Li Xin's righteousness; Ji Ge is basically useless now, yet A Xin can still speak up for him—this is rare indeed!

In the jianghu, those who send charcoal in the snow are few, while those who kick a man when he's down are everywhere.

Li Xin put his arm around Kun Ge, laughing: "Kun Ge, I also had some opinions about Ji Ge recently, but I will definitely not kill him—he's just that sort of person, unchangeable!"

"He deserved the beating; you don't need to explain anything to me—our relationship isn't so fragile as to reach this point, I trust you!"

Handsome Kun said: "Here! This is what you said; even if this matter is over, Mr. Jiang has promoted A Chao, and I have no choice—just understand, I'm leaving now."

After Handsome Kun got out of the car, Li Xin said to Jian Guo: "Return to Xi Gong."

Recently things have been too chaotic; he wants to go back to Xi Gong for a few days of peace to sort out recent affairs, and also make a trip to the kimchi side.

Besides, there's no suitable person nearby, so he must return to Xi Gong and have Chen Chao find a few Xianzu brothers, after all they also speak the kimchi language.

……

In the hospital, after hearing Bo Shu's account, Ji Ge sighed: "This time I really have to thank A Xin; if he hadn't spoken up for me, I'd be doomed!"

Bo Shu said: "Yeah, you should thank A Xin; that bar in the Western District will now be yours—this is the compensation A Xin got from Dong Xing for you, so settle down from now on!"

"If there's a next time, no one will be able to save you—I think you've lost your mind, knowing what Mr. Jiang taboos are, yet you still go up to it."

"For a bite of fatty meat, you don't even care about your own life—aren't you just asking for death?"

Ji Ge also feels some regret; now saying anything is too late, and he doesn't know how he got hot-headed back then and agreed to do this for the Smiling Tiger.

"Interests move people's hearts!"

"These few words can explain it!"

"But this time Ji Ge messed up!"

Bo Shu looked at Ji Ge's appearance and also felt embarrassed to continue.

Changing the subject, he said: "Who do you recommend to take over your position? Give me an answer so I can report back to Mr. Jiang."

Ji Ge replied: "Let me think! I'll see who can replace me; once I've decided, I'll call you—won't take long."

Not long after Bo Shu left, a person came into Ji Ge's hospital room, placed a handbag on his bedside without saying a word, and left.

Ji Xin glanced at it, closed his eyes, pondered for a long while, and muttered: "It's not that the Big Brother lacks righteousness—there's just too much money!"

That night, Ji Ge picked up his brick phone and called Bo Shu, somewhat out of breath, saying:

"The Western District lacks talent; I want Chen Haonan to take the position of Western District leader—do you think that's possible?"

Bo Shu froze upon hearing that!

He shouted: "Are you fucking stupid? Chen Haonan is just a 49—does he even qualify for this position?"

"How much money did Big Brother B give you to make this decision? Are you really seeking death? What will your underling A Ye think?"

Ji Ge replied: "Then what do you say I should do? How will I make a living from now on?"

Bo Shu also got a bit angry and asked: "Aren't the dividends from the main hall, your various properties, and the bar A Xin secured for you enough?"

Ji Ge replied aggrieved: "What properties do I still have? The main hall's dividends are just a few pennies!"

"As for whether that bar can continue operating, that's another matter—what's wrong with me setting aside some retirement money for myself?"

Bo Shu didn't even let him finish, hanging up directly—this guy really is incorrigible!

"Love it or hate it, just let it be!"

Jiang Tian Sheng received Bo Shu's call, knew the full story, and said nothing.

After hanging up, he looked at Big Brother B opposite him and asked: "A B, you should know that favors are a diminishing resource—are you sure you want to do this?"

Big Brother B nodded firmly and said: "Mr. Jiang, A Nan has been with me since childhood, just like my own child."

"I can see he doesn't want to work at the company; every day he just goes through the motions, with no real interest in working."

"He still yearns for gang life; as a Big Brother, I'll give him one last push—whether he becomes a dragon or a worm is up to him."

Big Brother B truly has nothing to say about Chen Haonan; to push him upward, he's used up all the favors owed from his demotion—who knows if he'll regret it later!
