Chapter 212: with translation of chapter title

He remained silent for a while; if someone else had said this, Da Fei wouldn't have believed it, but coming from Yaowen's mouth, he had no reason to doubt.

The three words "Big Brother Wen" are a golden signboard; his words are worth gold.

Da Fei spoke up, asking, "Yaowen! May I ask why? I know Xiao Tang; there won't be any problem!"

Da Fei calling Yaowen posed no problem at all; they started around the same time.

Yaowen looked at Da Fei and said, "After a while, come find me; I'll tell you the details."

Without Da Fei's obstruction, no one else objected; several heavyweight Leaders all received a call from Jiang Tian Sheng.

They didn't speak; basically there was no problem.

Chen Haonan became the Prosperity Western District Leader; this matter awaits Ji Ge's discharge from hospital for handover.

After the meeting, Jiang Tian Sheng stopped Xiyan; the two got in the car and drove off.

Today Li Xin and Bo Shu didn't leave either; they also wanted to hear why Xiao Tang was taken out—even Bo Shu, the ritual hall chief, didn't know.

Yaowen had only just joined Prosperity; therefore it's certain this is Jiang Tian Sheng's doing—no one else can issue punishment hall assignments.

Da Fei approached Yaowen, pulled over a chair, and sat down.

He asked, "Yaowen! I vouch for your character; tell me the truth—why was Xiao Tang taken out by the society?"

Yaowen picked up a cup, poured tea for Da Fei, and pushed it toward him.

He explained, "Xiao Tang is an informant for another society; I have the evidence, and I ordered Chen Haonan to handle this—any further questions?"

Da Fei's brows knitted together; he glanced at Yaowen, then suddenly thought of something.

He sighed and said, "I understand! Is it because of the Kowloon City matter?"

Yaowen nodded, saying nothing.

Da Fei explained, "This isn't Xiao Tang's fault; it's those landlords putting up the money—Xiao Tang just does the job for pay; he truly has no divided loyalties."

Li Xin already understood: someone was using Xiao Tang as a pawn; the most important income source for Da Fei's men is settling disputes for others.

When Da Fei wasn't a Leader, he lacked this income stream and could hardly support those men.

The move is rather sneaky! Using Prosperity's people to bring disaster upon Jiang Tian Sheng.

Li Xin thought again and realized it wasn't right; he asked, "Da Fei! Didn't Xiao Tang know that was Mr. Jiang's project? How dare he?"

Da Fei replied dejectedly, "Even I only found out today; if Mr. Jiang hadn't called Xiyan away, I might still not have guessed it."

Li Xin asked again, "Who carried this out?"

"The several major landlords of the walled city!"

After hearing Da Fei's answer, Li Xin smiled; it seems Li Yunfei is well-informed!

Knowing this project so early, recalling Huojingliang's tone yesterday, he must also know these people are truly capable!

Li Xin rose, patted Da Fei's shoulder, and said, "Stop your enforcer work; you can't afford to keep people anyway."

"This job earns you blame money; since you took the pay, don't complain—it's pointless!"

Bo Shu and Yaowen also patted Da Fei's shoulder, said nothing, and left directly.

After Da Fei and the others left, he suddenly shouted angrily, "Fuck your mother!"

Who knows whom he was cursing; it might even include himself.

This pent-up fury doesn't know whom to target; he can only curse at the air.

He can't do anything else!

Just as Li Xin was about to get in the car and leave, Jingkun blocked him, wearing a smug smile, and said.

"A Xin! I've been waiting for you ages! Come with me; I've got something good to give you."

Li Xin took one look at his appearance and knew it wasn't anything decent.

Perfect—he himself wasn't exactly upright either, so he readily followed Jingkun into the car.

A Bu looked at Jianguo and asked, "Are we still going along?"

Jianguo replied with a smile, "We must follow; following the boss means meat to eat, especially going to Kun Ge's place—it's all good food."

A Bu still thought they'd really get to eat! Only upon arriving did he realize what was really going on.

The food was rather special; he found it hard to swallow.

Li Xin followed Jingkun to the office and saw the interior freshly renovated.

Li Xin gave Jingkun a thumbs up and said, "Kun Ge! Your office renovation looks just like those big bosses'—quite impressive."

Jingkun sat in the boss's chair, legs crossed, and replied modestly, "Not yet! It's only a semblance; I lack their real strength."

Li Xin approached that row of bookshelves, picked up a book, and flipped through it.

"Hmm! Not bad—quite large and round."

Li Xin raised his hand, gestured at Jingkun, and teased, "Kun Ge! Your renovation isn't thorough—are all these bookshelves filled with this stuff?"

Jingkun said carelessly, "Damn! These are my reference materials; we can now make theatrical films, but these porn flicks can't just be discarded—it's all money!"

Li Xin stopped joking around and asked, "The gift? Hurry up and bring it out—I still have things to do!"

Jingkun picked up a document from the desk and handed it to Li Xin, saying, "Everything's here; just go downstairs to get it."

Li Xin took it, looked, and a smile gradually appeared on his face as he held the document.

Smiling, he said, "Kun Ge! Thanks for the thought—I'll head out now; call me if anything comes up."

Li Xin had thought Jingkun would give him a special gift, but it turned out to be a license plate, the number quite meaningful: "LX".

This is the new license-plate policy just released this year; these plates are bought via auction, with prices outrageously high—this is basically extortion.

Li Xin left Jingkun's office, searched around for Jianguo, but couldn't find him!

Only A Bu was guarding downstairs; seeing the boss looking for Jianguo, he blushed slightly and said, "Boss! Jianguo has something to attend to—just give me any tasks you have."

Li Xin glanced at A Bu, curious, and asked, "You wouldn't be……"

A Bu……

Seeing Sha Qiang passing by, Li Xin waved at him and said, "A Qiang! Get someone to change my license plate; the plate is at the front desk."

Sha Qiang was smiling, just about to take the cash from Li Xin's hand, when a hand stopped him.

A Wu snatched the cash first, holding it in his hand, laughing and said, "Xin Ge! Leave this to me, no need to trouble anyone else!"

Damn! A Wu, you've had enough! Whenever there's some profit, you just grab it—can't you leave us some?

Sha Qiang looked resentful; ever since this flop showed up, their income has plummeted—it's all been snatched away by him!

A Wu shoved Sha Qiang, cursing, "You damn well not happy? That time Kun Ge had something going on—wasn't I charging ahead? And you still have the nerve to call?"

Don't be shameless! This is for Xin Ge's business—with me, A Wu, around, there's no room for anyone else to get a share. Don't damn go looking for trouble!

No wonder it's you, A Wu!

Li Xin spoke up teasingly.
