Chapter 302: Who Doesn't Want to Be Prestigious?

Yuen Long, the villa of Dongxing Dragon Head Luotuo.

Luotuo held a cigar in one hand and a receiver in the other, speaking with someone.

Clearly, his mood at this moment was not very good, and his face bore a look of obvious annoyance.

Once he hung up the phone, he couldn't help but curse: "Is getting rich so impressive? Didn't we all used to run in the underworld just the same? What a total jerk!"

"Big Brother, who made you unhappy?"

Sitting on the sofa, Wuya immediately spoke up clamorously: "I'll go take him out!"

"Get lost, all you know how to do all day is fight and kill!"

Luotuo cursed irritably: "You don't know anything about the situation, yet you open your mouth to say 'take this out' or 'take that out.' If you really had that kind of ability, you would have long since become the toughest Red Pole in the Hong Kong underworld!"

"Big Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Wuya was a bit confused, not knowing what madness Luotuo was having.

Why was he taking his anger out on him for no reason?

Feeling very annoyed inside, he said sullenly: "I didn't do anything!"

If it weren't for the fact that life had been better lately and he had quite a bit of spare cash on hand, his mood would have been much broader.

Otherwise, given Luotuo's attitude, Wuya would definitely have killed his own boss hundreds of times over in his heart.

"Hmph, didn't I want to invest in the Japan stock market?"

Luotuo also wanted to vent his inner frustration to someone, so he flopped onto the sofa and said unhappily: "I wanted to get rich by following Wu Feng, who came from Hongxing, but this guy actually isn't willing!"

"Isn't he also from a triad background? Now that he's made it, has he forgotten his underworld friends entirely?"

Listening from the side, Wuya couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Damn it, as the Dragon Head, don't you have any idea about the relationship between Dongxing and Hongxing?

Besides, when was Luotuo ever friends with Wu Feng?

When Wu Feng was rising to power, Luotuo spent most of his time hiding in the Netherlands to avoid trouble.

By the time Luotuo didn't have to worry about danger in Hong Kong, Wu Feng had already completely risen to power.

It was only when the major bigwigs of Hongxing turned their focus overseas and stopped meddling in the triad interest disputes in Hong Kong that Luotuo's interactions with them gradually increased.

But Luotuo's status in the underworld was what it was!

At most, he had a decent relationship with the former Hongxing Dragon Head; as for Wu Feng, Han Bin, and that Jing Kun, one could only say they were acquaintances—there was no friendship to speak of at all.

"What kind of expression is that?"

Clearly, Wuya's expression management was not up to par, and being seen by the already angry Luotuo, it immediately drew a scolding: "Am I wrong about what I said?"

"Big Brother, we are triad members!"

Wuya was dissatisfied and spoke up to remind him: "Right now, Wu Feng is wandering around the stock market; he's no longer in the same circle as us, so what's there to be hung up about?"

As one of the Dongxing Five Tigers, Wuya had naturally heard about Wu Feng making a fortune in the Japan stock market, and naturally, he felt all sorts of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

But no matter how envious he was, it was useless; Wu Feng's ability to make money was his own skill!

Besides, Wu Feng was no longer a being of the same world as these underworld figures.

The massive amount of cash in Wu Feng's hands alone was enough to make him one of the top Red Mansions in Hong Kong; he was a proper financial backer—what could a triad member compare to him with?

"Hmph, you guy, I can't be bothered to talk to you!"

Luotuo was so angry his nose was almost crooked, but he couldn't do anything about Wuya.

He couldn't just tell him his true thoughts: I just want to latch onto Wu Feng and get rich along with him!

If Wuya found out, it was unclear how poisonous this guy's mouth would be.

Besides, Wuya was just a pure brute; talking to him about stock speculation was simply playing the lute to a cow.

Wuya was also very depressed; if Luotuo weren't his Big Brother, he would have wanted to take action.

"By the way, what did Aben say?"

Luotuo directly changed the subject and said in a deep voice: "Did he agree to our conditions?"

"He didn't agree!"

Speaking of this, Wuya's face turned ugly, and he said unhappily: "Ben Shu said that the territory in Causeway Bay was hard-won, and it's impossible to give it up easily!"

"He's looking for death!"

Luotuo's face was gloomy, and he said unhappily: "If it weren't for the name of Dongxing, could he have held onto the territory in his hands?"

This statement was naturally quite biased, but that was exactly what Luotuo thought at the moment.

"Then, Big Brother, do you want me to take action personally?"

Wuya's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Causeway Bay is truly a good place!"

"Can you take down all of Aben's territory by yourself?"

Luotuo doubted: "Don't let there be any mistakes, or the trouble will be huge!"

Causeway Bay is prosperous, so the competition is naturally quite intense.

Previously, Luotuo didn't have much interest in the territory in Causeway Bay.

But the situation is different now; through discount promotions, Dongxing also intends to join the retail industry and the low-to-mid-level wholesale industry, so naturally, it needs territory in prosperous areas for support.

It's not easy to act rashly against Huopao Gang in Mong Kok, and his strength is not bad at all.

Then the only option is to set his sights and ideas on the territory in Causeway Bay held by Ben Shu.

Ben Shu is a rather special existence within Dongxing.

When Luotuo has no intention of targeting him, he is an 'esteemed and respected' uncle-generation figure within Dongxing, the kind to whom everyone must give some face.

After all, this old guy might be average in other skills, but he is definitely a master at backstabbing and setting people up.

"How will I know if I don't try?"

Wuya was ambitious, his eyes full of excitement.

The recent state of Dongxing made him somewhat unable to understand.

Of course, the main reason was that Dongxing's income channels had increased, and the money in Wuya's hands had also grown.

This made him, who had been accustomed to being poor, somewhat unable to adapt for a while.

Following Wuya, you'd go three days without a meal nine times!

This saying was not a joke or mockery, but rather that Wuya really didn't have much money in his hands.

Among the Dongxing Five Tigers, only he and Jinmao Hu could be considered standard underworld thugs.

They loved fighting and killing, had no brains themselves, and their management abilities were even worse.

If it weren't for the decent profits from selling pills, given Wuya's ability and the number of Underlings under him, this guy would easily show signs of bankruptcy and simply couldn't save money.

Yet, as a Big Brother, he just happened to like such brainless subordinates.

Among the Dongxing Five Tigers, Luotuo liked to keep Wuya by his side the most.

One reason was to act as a bodyguard, and the other was that he was easy to fool and use.

Ben Shu was in a similar situation, having easily developed Jinmao Hu into his strongest henchman.

"Then you go ahead and try. Just scaring Aben will be enough!"

Luotuo nodded in agreement and said in a deep voice, "If it goes smoothly, you will be able to control one of the streets there!"

"Thank you, Big Brother, I will do the job well!"

Wuya's face was full of joy; that was a street in Causeway Bay, after all. Just the grey income of the triad alone amounted to hundreds of thousands or even a million every month, which was more than what he earned from his hard work selling pills.

If the profits from selling pills were added, he could get at least two or three million a month.

For Wuya, such a figure definitely counted as big money!

"After you finish the job, go to the Gambling Ship in Siam and sit in charge for a period of time!"

Luotuo glanced at Wuya and promised the benefit directly: "You can take thirty percent of the earnings from the Gambling Ship!"

"Many thanks, Big Brother!"

Upon hearing this, Wuya was even more pleasantly surprised, his face full of unconcealable joy.

He really didn't expect that Luotuo would be so generous this time!

Dongxing had a Gambling Hall on the Gambling Ship in Siam, with a monthly turnover of over ten million; it could be said to be a small gold mine with a continuous output.

The kickbacks he received each month were also close to a million.

The key was that he could build connections in Siam and open up certain channels.

If he was lucky, he might even be able to communicate directly with the forces in Siam in the future.

If that really happened, it would definitely be a situation of rolling wealth in the future.

For a time, the atmosphere was harmonious, and the two also had the leisure to chat about other things.

"Big Brother, do you want to buy a football team to play with too?"

Wuya chuckled, "In the last few days, whether watching television or reading newspapers, there are so many reports about the teams under Jiang Tiansheng and Wu Feng; it's just too hot!"

Time had reached June, and the leagues in various European countries had basically concluded.

At this time, Asia Television and *Mong Kok News* suddenly reported that Jiang Tiansheng had bought a Dutch football club, while Wu Feng had bought an English Second Division football club.

Once the report came out, it immediately caused a sensation across Hong Kong.

No one expected that these two, without a sound, had bought professional football clubs in Europe.

Especially Jiang Tiansheng; the team he bought belonged to a Dutch team that had been in the limelight recently.

Wu Feng was not to be outdone; although the team he bought was only an English Second Division team, one couldn't ignore the fact that Fulham was a genuine Great Britain football club.

The fans were as lively as if it were a festival, feeling indescribably happy.

They were no strangers to Jiang Tiansheng and Wu Feng, as these two each had a Hong Kong professional football club under their command.

Most importantly, the Hong Kong professional football club under Wu Feng had very good results in the Hong Kong First Division League; if they kept it up, the championship might just be theirs.

As for the Hong Kong football club under Jiang Tiansheng, it was also considered a regular and strong team in the Hong Kong First Division Football League.

It was also because of this that, as team owners, they were naturally big celebrities when the teams performed well.

It was even more exaggerated now; many Hong Kong fans were looking forward to it, hoping that the professional football clubs under Wu Feng and Jiang Tiansheng could have close exchanges, or even introduce Hong Kong players to join European leagues.

For a time, topics related to the two were rampant, becoming one of the hottest topics in June.

Especially when the two announced at the same time that their two European professional football teams would come to Hong Kong in the summer and play a few friendly matches with local Hong Kong professional football teams.

When the news spread, it once again blew the Hong Kong fans away with excitement.

It could be said that in the recent period, Jiang Tiansheng and Wu Feng almost lived on television and in newspapers, with large-scale reports every day; one wondered how those reporters made it all up.

Not to mention others, Wuya was extremely jealous looking at it, and that was why he started inciting his own Dragon Head.

In fact, Luotuo was tempted.
