Chapter 379

Central Thus line: Prosperity Headquarters.

Today is again the day to hand over the numbers, but the positions in Pointy Sand Spit and Oil Sesame Land are empty; Taizi and Boxing King Tai didn't come.

Handsome Kun's hoarse voice sounded in the meeting room, laughing and teasing: "Taizi and Boxing King Tai are out there counting money and forgot the time! Haven't they arrived yet?"

Heavenly Rainbow sitting in the chief seat explained: "Brother Kun, from now on Pointy Sand Spit will be under the Ghost King, Oil Sesame Land under the Tiger King, Taizi Brother and Tai Brother have matters to attend to; after a period of time they will step down as Thus line: Leader."

After the Ghost King and Tiger King finished greeting everyone and sat down, the meeting room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Nobody spoke; everyone felt envy and jealousy in their hearts, Damn! How come I don't have Brother Xin, a fellow brother like A Xin?

Handsome Kun's face flushed with envy, he waved at Ah Wu, urging him to quickly hand over the numbers; after doing so, he got up and left.

As he walked, he said to Heavenly Rainbow: "Dragon Head, I have something to look for A Xin here, I'll go ahead first."

Heavenly Rainbow knew what Handsome Kun wanted to do, suppressing a laugh, he replied: "Yeah, Brother Kun, go ahead; if there's anything, I'll find you separately."

Handsome Kun made an OK gesture, then hurried back to Prosperous Corner.

He grabbed a document from the office and rushed straight to the Far East Club.

Just now he called Li Xin, knowing he was in the club keeping someone company.

After getting out of the car, he asked the attendant: "Where is A Xin?"

The attendant knew Handsome Kun, aware he was the boss's friend and also a renowned big brother in the Jianghu.

This proper attendant is a relative of the old brothers from Oil Sesame Land and knows some Jianghu matters.

Not daring to delay, he brought Handsome Kun to the private room door and said to the guard, Jianguo: "Brother Jianguo, Mr. Li is looking for the boss; please let him know."

Jianguo laughed and waved his hand, saying: "Go ahead and get busy, Brother Kun, I'll entertain him."

Well, Jianguo and Handsome Kun have a good relationship; after all, he eats, drinks, and plays for free, all on Brother Kun's tab!

His own free-loading doesn't count; sometimes he also brings people along, such as Xiao Fu and the brothers from the security company.

Now, Brother Kun's four bodyguard positions are in high demand at the security company; everyone fights to get them, and Brother Kun treats them well—it's a plum job!

After the attendant left, Jianguo then smiled and said to Handsome Kun: "Brother Kun, got any hot stuff lately? I haven't been to your place in ages!"

Handsome Kun was very generous with Jianguo, putting his arm around his shoulder and whispering: "If you have time, come over; I've saved a good one for you—the leg goddess who's all the rage in the third-tier market lately; I haven't touched her myself, I've specially saved her for you."

Jianguo's eyes lit up, and he whispered: "Is she the lead actress from Elite City?"

"Yeah, that's her—hot or not?"

Jianguo recalled the movie scene, nodded and replied: "Brother Kun, I appreciate it—I'll come over tonight."

Having said that, he brought Handsome Kun into the private room; inside, Li Xin was playing Fight the Landlord with Shark Gallbladder Tong and He Xin.

Recently there's been nothing going on; he spends all day in the club keeping these old-timers company.

Besides, sometimes they can make a little profit from it; although it's not big money for Li Xin now, outsiders would still eye it covetously.

Li Xin saw Handsome Kun come in and casually asked: "Brother Kun, what urgent matter do you have looking for me?"

Handsome Kun first greeted Shark Gallbladder Tong and Mr. He Xin: "Uncle Tong, Mr. He, I am Li Qiankun of Prosperity Righteous Electronics Distribution Company."

The two merely nodded at him, considering it a response; this was rare, and Handsome Kun felt content—usually when he saw these two, he wasn't even qualified to greet them.

They wouldn't even pay him any heed!

Only then did Handsome Kun place the document in his hand before Li Xin.

Then he said: "A Xin, this is the VCD sales data for Gangdao; I figured you had time, so I personally brought it over, okay?"

"Jianguo, bring Brother Kun a chair."

After he sat down, Li Xin gave him an amused look.

He teased: "Brother Kun, you should go to the Red Letter Electronics Building to find Ah Qiong; what's the use of sending it to me?"

At this point, Shark Gallbladder Tong interjected: "A Xin, tell me, how did you get hold of the Tomb Base Building?"

The Tomb Base Building's location is much better than the Red Letter Building's, and its area is considerably larger—how could they let it go?

Li Xin organized his words, then smiled and replied: "Uncle Tong, well, all I can say is I have a special way of doing business—don't even think about it!"

"If I told you the method, you still couldn't pull it off—it's all hard work!"

He Xin understood Li Xin's way of doing things and could roughly guess some of the details.

He Xin gave Li Xin a sideways glance, then earnestly advised: "A Xin, you're already halfway up the mountain; don't let your shoes get wet, or you won't be able to cross!"

Li Xin nodded, acknowledging that He Xin's words made sense.

"Uncle He, I know this in my heart; in Gangdao, I won't go overboard, but this is a world of the weak preyed upon by the strong, where the law of the jungle rules."

"When a piece of fat meat is brought to your mouth, what reason is there not to eat it?"

Moreover, I also paid a hefty price for the Tomb Base Building—a full hundred million dollars; although it's below market price, given the current sluggish real estate market in Gangdao, it's not excessive.

Well, he omitted the source of that hundred million dollars, after all these are trivial details, not worth mentioning.

Shark Gallbladder Tong laughed heartily in agreement: "A Xin is right; everyone says I have a good relationship with the Cow Cow Queen, and that's true."

But this is also a relationship I forged at great expense; they say Oceania folks have gentlemanly demeanor—bullshit! They're damn hypocrites.

"If you bring them benefits, they'll call you dad; but if a conflict of interest arises, they'll turn on you faster than flipping a page."

"We Chinese still value some sentiment, but in the eyes of Oh My people, that sentiment is just a joke—no one acknowledges it."

"Recently, the CEO of Christiano Company encountered an air disaster—was it an accident? Damn, it was caused by an air disaster!"

"All seven family members were damn forced to sit in a man-made earth plane, none survived!"

"Look at the methods of those foreigners; compared to what they do, what A Xin plays with is just kids playing house—no comparison!"

"Well, Uncle Tong is a good judge of character; he knows Li Xin is a good kid, even his methods are just playing house!"

Li Xin nodded in agreement, flattering: "Uncle Tong speaks sense; I'm just too kind-hearted—I can't bear to see tragedy unfold, so my methods are very gentle."

Handsome Kun gave Li Xin a genuine eye-roll beside him.

He inwardly shouted, "Shameless! Your methods are gentle, yet you claim to be good?"

"Your methods are gentle, your nature kind—you can't bear to see the Thunder Lord and the Ma family's kin separated, which is why they've gone extinct!"

This shameless one, can you not smear these two terms?
