Chapter 25: Xiao Ma Ge helps me make a fortune (seeking follow-up reading)

~7 min read 1,396 words

Overnight, the underground order of Shanghai Street was reshuffled.

Only two society forces, Wo Shing and Hong Yi, remained. Wo Shing occupied two-thirds of Shanghai Street, and the remaining one-third was controlled by Hong Yi.

Hong Yi ate well this time. As long as they successfully digested the newly acquired territory, it would not be a problem to become the gatekeeper of a second-rate society. Hong Yi already had such financial resources.

Tangge didn't care what he did, Wu Feng fulfilled his promise.

Whoever took down the venue would watch the venue, of course, at most three night venues.

"Xin Zai, you performed well. After you worship Guan Gong, you will be a formal Four-Nine of the society!"

Wu Feng said to a handsome young man: "In addition, you will watch the Mi Meng finger massage room. Do it well, if you have merit, I will not treat you badly!"

"Thank you, Big Brother, thank you, Big Brother, I will definitely do things well and will not live up to Big Brother's love!"

Li Xin was very clever, and at this time he was full of excitement and bowed repeatedly.

Wu Feng smiled slightly and didn't say anything more. This kid was the most dazzling among the Blue Lanterns, capable of fighting and clever, so he naturally had to be raised as a benchmark.

When Guanzaisen appeared in the sauna again, his outfit was absolutely eye-catching.

Wearing a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses in the middle of the night, with a big gold chain and a big gold watch, he was a typical nouveau riche, and laughed when he saw Wu Feng, looking very smug.

"Brother Sen, looking at your high-spirited and ruddy appearance, have you paid back the money in Macau?"

"Do you want to pay back the money for the mahjong parlor? Anyway, Brother Sen is not short of money now!"

A few words directly made the smile on Guanzaisen's face disappear. He took off his glasses and said unhappily: "Do you have to be so urgent, Feng Ge? Let's keep the mahjong parlor in your hands for now!"

"I finally have some cash in my hand, and I don't want to lose it so soon!"

Don't look at him collapsing three small societies in one breath, but the largest one only guarded ten night venues, with less than a hundred formal Four-Nines and four hundred Blue Lanterns.

The oil and water that can be scraped are limited, at most a few million, and it takes a lot of thought and energy to dig deep.

Small societies in Hong Kong are very strange. Some even have only one billiard room and dare to set up a signboard!

Wu Feng smiled slightly, knowing it would be such a result!

He invited Guanzaisen to the private room he often went to on the second floor, and while enjoying the careful service of the technician lady, he chatted aimlessly, without mentioning underworld matters.

When the atmosphere was almost there, Wu Feng said directly: "Brother Sen, I need a favor recently!"

"What favor?"

Guanzaisen was very comfortable and said casually: "Tell me, I will help if I can!"

"Please help me say hello to your Big Brother, I want to do some small business!"

"What small business?"

Guanzaisen became interested and asked curiously: "Is it profitable?"

"How would I know? It's also a gamble!"

Wu Feng explained: "A few days ago, when I was wandering on the street, I saw the poster wall of the cinema belonging to Golden Princess, and it was posted with the poster of 'A Better Tomorrow'!"

"I took a look, this is an urban gunfight movie!"

"You also know that Cheng Shilong's 'Police Story' was popular in Hong Kong during the New Year. I think this 'A Better Tomorrow' has some prospects, and one of the characters' dressing style is very chic!"

"Once the movie is popular, it is estimated that the dressing style of the characters in it will become popular. I am gambling, and I want to sell the same clothes when the movie is shown!"

"You kid really dare to gamble!"

Guanzaisen was speechless and waved his hand: "I won't follow, you just sell clothes!"

Wu Feng happily thanked him, and his mood was quite good.

Why do you say that the 1980s Hong Kong is full of gold? He hit it this time.

He didn't lie to Guanzaisen. He did see the promotional poster made by Golden Princess cinema when he was wandering, and his heart became active.

"A Better Tomorrow", a classic of Hong Kong movies, and Xiao Ma Ge is popular for a while.

He had checked some information in later generations and read the plots of many Hong Kong entertainment novels, knowing that during the screening of "A Better Tomorrow", Xiao Ma Ge's trench coat and toothpick combination sold crazy.

Wu Feng naturally wanted to make a quick profit. If operated well, it would not be impossible to earn millions or even millions during the screening of "A Better Tomorrow".

He had already asked, the factory price of Xiao Ma Ge's same trench coat was only about 20, but if it was sold when "A Better Tomorrow" was popular, it wouldn't be too much to sell for 100 Hong Kong dollars, right?

And the main force buying Xiao Ma Ge's same trench coat and toothpick are mostly young people, especially low-level thugs who like to chase trends. Even if they don't have money to eat, they can't stop them from buying a trendy outfit.

Where are the most low-level thugs? Naturally, Yau Tsim Mong area is the most!

If there is no Wo Shing to guarantee, Wu Feng wants to sell trench coats to make money, at most he can only be in Shanghai Street and a few surrounding streets, and he can't go out at all.

In fact, Wo Shing's strength is still a bit worse. If he can get Hong Hing's help, he basically doesn't have to worry about having trouble in the Yau Tsim Mong area.

After getting Guanzaisen's consent, Wu Feng acted quickly.

It was already the end of July, and "A Better Tomorrow" was released on August 2nd.

There was not much time left. After all, Golden Princess cinema has only a dozen cinemas, and he only needs to arrange people to set up stalls outside the cinema.

In order to maximize profits, he simply bought a small garment factory in Kwun Tong that was about to close down.

The scale is indeed not large, with only a few machines, and the number of workers is less than 20. It is a small workshop.

His requirements for the small garment factory are very simple: produce trench coats in three shifts immediately, the more the better.

For this reason, he directly invested nearly 800,000, which is considered a blood cost.

The results are also gratifying!

When the movie "A Better Tomorrow" was released and Xiao Ma Ge's charm swept across Hong Kong, the audience who had just come out of the cinema was surprised to find that there were vendors selling Xiao Ma Ge's same trench coat outside.

Although 100 Hong Kong dollars was a bit expensive, the audience who were in the aftertaste of the movie bought one without hesitation, and what surprised them was that the vendor also gave a small box of toothpicks for free.

Such thoughtful service sold thousands of trench coats in one night!

Is it exaggerated? Not at all!

Compared with the huge audience, the number of thousands of trench coats can only be considered a small case.

It took less than four days for all the costs Wu Feng spent to be recovered.

But at this moment, trouble also came knocking.

As long as one isn't a fool, anyone can see that selling trench coats along with the movie craze is absolutely a profitable business.

The ones with the sharpest sense of smell are actually the scum of the societies!

The reputation of Wo Shing is indeed intimidating, but the bottom-tier scum of other first-rate societies don't really care much about it.

You have to know, with the hit screening of *A Better Tomorrow* and the massive coverage by newspaper media, who in all of Hong Kong doesn't know Xiao Ma Ge? The demand for Xiao Ma Ge-style trench coats is quite astonishing.
