Chapter 220
Not long after Jianjun returned from Wanwan, Li Xin received an invitation from the Mountain Chief of Hong Gate West Hua Mountain, Wen Tongbiao.
The invitation's meaning is simple: have him go to Wanwan to open the gate and pay respects to the mountain.
This is because they are dissatisfied; in Wanwan, while doing business, they didn't give them any face at all.
Li Xin rubbed his left arm; the wound had mostly healed and did not affect his movement.
Hong Gate West Hua Mountain, nobody knows which one it is, but when you mention the two people's names, everyone knows!
Whampoa First Phase Hu Zongnan, China's Peerless Guardian Dai Chunfeng, these two are the founders.
Moreover, this West Hua Mountain is not a heretical practice; this mountain peak has been recognized by the Hong Gate General Hall, and Situ Big Brother personally carried the mountain, placing it among the orthodox Hong Gate.
This is to give Li Xin a show of force, to let him know how high the heavens are and how thick the earth is.
Don't be too presumptuous!
This is to test his courage, to see if he dares to go to Wanwan to pay respects to the mountain gate.
That bullet could make Li Xin cautious, but……to make him a shrinking turtle, absolutely impossible!
In the martial world, there's nowhere he wouldn't dare go; if really unable, he'd pull out a treasure to give them a surprise, Li Xin couldn't even withstand it.
They also couldn't!
Li Xin picked up the phone and called Jiang Tian Sheng; after the call connected, he opened his mouth and said:.
"Jiang Mr.! Wanwan Hong Gate West Hua Mountain has sent me an invitation; I want to go to Wanwan and let you know."
Jiang Tian Sheng asked doubtfully: "Isn't West Hua Mountain already entered the political arena? How could they send you an invitation? Is it because of the Ma family?"
Li Xin's mouth curled with a cold smile as he replied: "They're dissatisfied! They blame me for sending people to Wanwan to do business without paying respects to the mountain gate; this is my show of force."
"If I don't go this time, then whether it's Prosperity's business or Red Trust Media's business in Wanwan, it will be very difficult; therefore……I must go to open the mountain and pay respects to the gate."
Jiang Tian Sheng considered for a moment, then said: "I'll send personnel from the Rites Hall and the Punishment Hall to follow you; we're not made of mud, West Hua Mountain wants face, and Prosperity will give it to them!"
Li Xin immediately refused, replying: "Jiang Mr., Bo Shu and Yao Wen going with me is enough; no need for too many people, that place is their main base, more people would be useless."
Li Xin hung up the phone and immediately summoned personnel; this time going to Wanwan to pay respects to the mountain, he'll go alone to the meeting, and also let the other mountain peaks of Hong Gate get to know his Immortal Trust!
However, before going to Wanwan, he went to find Han Bin; there are some VCD patents, and he still needs to trouble him to acquire them.
If he doesn't obtain the complete technical patent, Li Xin will absolutely not put the VCD into the market; otherwise, he'd just be working for others!
The next morning.
Li Xin, with Jianjun brothers and A Bu, headed straight for the airport.
Bo Shu and Yao Wen were already waiting at the airport entrance; the group of six boarded the passenger plane to Wanwan.
Wanwan Central Correct International Airport, later known as Peach Blossom Spring International Airport, Li Xin's group of six disembarked from the plane.
Just walked out of the station exit.
His two sworn brothers, Zhongyong Bo and Jin Bo of the Sanlian Gang, had already brought a large entourage waiting for him.
Those underlings were still holding banners with a few large characters written on them.
"Welcome Gangdao Xin Brother to Wanwan."
Li Xin laughed loudly as he stepped forward and embraced his two sworn brothers.
He said: "Eldest brother, second brother, you're being too polite! No need for such a grand reception—it's over the top!"
Zhongyong Bo's voice boomed as he laughed and said: "A Xin, since you've come to Wanwan, you must receive this level of hospitality; if we can't give you face, how can the Sanlian Gang survive in Wanwan?"
"Xihua Mountain has influence, but our Sanlian Gang is no match for them."
"We are sworn brothers; I must back you up in this matter, A Xin—you're a stand‑up guy!"
Jin Bo also chimed in: "A Xin! Feel free to enjoy yourself in Wanwan—no problem!"
Passing travelers glanced over, all wondering who that young man was.
Who could arrange such a grand reception at the international airport entrance for him!
His background must be huge!
Li Xin was still chatting with Zhongyong Bo when, not long after, another group arrived, the leader speaking up.
"Xin Brother! Sorry! Traffic jam! I'm late—I'm Dahu from the Big Circle Gang."
Li Xin shook hands with Dahu, smiling and asked: "What car did you drive here?"
"A Mazda!"
"No wonder you got stuck in traffic—this time you've eaten your fill; hurry up and switch cars!" Li Xin teased.
Before they could leave the airport, another group arrived; the leader was short, with a broad, honest‑looking face and a simple smile.
Li Xin knew this person—he was the Wanwan agent of Red Trust Media.
Sun Yong, a Wanwan resident from Taipei, a well‑known figure in Wanwan's film and television circles.
President of Wanwan's Changhong Film and Television Company; also a Dharma Protector of the Zhulian Gang, his words carry great weight within the gang.
Sun Yong stepped forward and first clasped his hands in greeting to Zhongyong Bo.
He said: "Zhongyong Bo! How's your health lately? The Duck Tyrant often mentions you!"
Zhongyong Bo glared at him, giving him no pleasant expression.
He bluntly replied: "Don't keep mentioning me! If you mention me a few more times, the Sanlian Gang will be gone!"
Sun Yong's skin is still thick; he ignored Zhongyong Bo's sarcasm and instead smiled broadly at Li Xin, saying:
"Mr. Li! I'm Sun Yong of Changhong Film and Television; nice to meet you—I hope you'll look after me in the future."
After shaking hands with him, Li Xin then said: "President Sun, you're thoughtful! If you don't mind, let's go have a drink first, then we can talk about other things."
When it comes to making friends, Li Xin can loudly say that all these people before him are like brothers!
Not a single one can fight!
An hour later, at a Sichuan restaurant in Taipei, Li Xin and his companions were already seated at the wine table.
This place was chosen by Zhongyong Bo; the first time Li Xin treated him to a meal, it was also Sichuan cuisine.
Today Li Xin arrived at Wanwan, and that first meal also had to be Sichuan cuisine.
Several special cold dishes were served, and Li Xin, Loyal and Brave Earl, Gold Earl, Big Circle Tiger, and Sun Yong began drinking.
As the host, Loyal and Brave Earl was the first to raise his wine cup and said, "Today my sworn brother A Xin has come to Wanwan; I raise a cup—bottoms up!"
Everyone could hold their liquor; after downing a glass of two liang of baijiu, they were fine.
Afterwards, they took turns toasting; Li Xin refused no one, downing his cup each time.
By the end, nobody could still stand; Big Circle Tiger grabbed Li Xin's hand and said, "Brother Xin, just based on your drinking bravado, I've decided to be your friend—if anything comes up, just speak up."
Sun Yong also slurred, "That's right! Brother Xin, if you have any business in Wanwan, just speak up!"
"What I can do, I'll do without discount; what I can't, I'll find a way to get it done for you!"
Loyal and Brave Earl need not say more; after two rounds of drinks, he'd already been won over by Li Xin's drinking.
With bleary eyes, he said, "A Xin, tomorrow I'll go with you to meet those people from West Hua Mountain; if they give you trouble, the Three United Gang will go to war with them."
"Big Brother! You don't need to get involved; this is an internal matter of the Hong Gate, and you shouldn't interfere."
Li Xin glanced at their condition; it looked like he'd drunk them all under the table!
The drunken words of martial artists also count; once spoken, the oath is set.
This refers to respected martial artists; the boasts of nobodies don't count!
So… Li Xin is especially careful when drinking outside, lest he blow his own trumpet too loudly!
Then trouble is unavoidable!
