Chapter 2214: Eating People Without Spitting Out Bones

Zhong Yunqiu knew that he would inevitably have to bleed money this time.

However, with his son missing and still needing to rely on Hong Yuanshan for help, he could only ask respectfully: "Godfather, tell me, what kind of help do you need? As long as I can help, I will do my best."

Hong Yuanshan nodded with satisfaction and sighed: "It's you, Yunqiu, who knows best how to repay kindness!"

As he spoke, he sighed and added: "Sigh! Recently, my frozen meat smuggling business has indeed seen some improvement, but this business is not as easy to do as imagined. Especially since the loss during the process of getting the frozen meat into Hong Kong is too great, and the anti-smuggling department has been keeping a close eye on this area. We have lost a lot of goods, so I want you to help me register a shipping company. With your reputation in Hong Kong, your shipping company will definitely have a lot of room for operation, and you can help me smuggle some goods in."

Zhong Yunqiu was shocked and blurted out: "Godfather, I... I have spent so many years finally washing my hands clean. If you ask me to go back and register a company for smuggling now, and this matter comes to light, I'll be finished!"

Hong Yuanshan waved his hand and pacified him: "Yunqiu, don't be so agitated. I'm not asking you to do this yourself. After you register the shipping company, just operate some legitimate business normally. I will arrange for people to smuggle frozen meat within your normal shipments. Under normal circumstances, nothing will go wrong. Once something goes wrong, you just need to find someone from your subordinates to be your scapegoat and categorize these things under his personal name. Just say he was blinded by greed and used the company's resources to smuggle. Wouldn't you be fine then?"

Zhong Yunqiu broke into a cold sweat and said: "Godfather, it's not that I'm unwilling to help, but this kind of thing is too risky for me. And you know the media in Hong Kong; they love to dig deep and expose big events..."

As he spoke, Zhong Yunqiu gritted his teeth and said with immense heartache: "Godfather, how about this? The Hongmen is in financial difficulty. Since you've come to me, I will definitely not stand idly by. Over the next three years, I will find a way to scrape together 30 million US dollars for the Hongmen. As for how you use this money, it's entirely up to your own preference!"

Hong Yuanshan's face darkened. He fiddled with the thumb ring on his hand and sighed: "Yunqiu, you are truly filial! With one sentence, you give this old man 30 million US dollars over three years. You can't find a godson as filial as you in all of Hong Kong."

Having said that, Hong Yuanshan changed the subject and said seriously: "If I were just a useless old man, then this money would certainly be enough for me to spend until I die. But don't forget, I still have thousands of mouths under me waiting to be fed. This little money is not enough for me."

"In addition, I used to only be responsible for importing and selling goods, not delivering them. A lot of the profit was taken by people in the delivery link, so I want to get twenty or thirty speedboats and do the delivery myself to maximize the Hongmen's profits! Buying boats and hiring labor will cost at least tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars."

Zhong Yunqiu's expression froze, and he was already cursing in his heart: "This dog bastard Hong Yuanshan! Three years and 30 million US dollars isn't enough for you?! You damn old man, with such a big appetite, aren't you afraid of choking to death!"

However, at this moment, Zhong Yunqiu didn't dare to act out against Hong Yuanshan. He hurriedly gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision: "Godfather, how about this? 50 million US dollars over three years. This is truly my limit. You also know that the economy is bad now, cash flow in all walks of life is very poor, and most assets have become non-performing assets, with no chance of being cashed out at all. My life is also very difficult!"

Hong Yuanshan raised his eyebrows and said: "Yunqiu, we are family, so let's not talk like outsiders. You give the Hongmen 60 million US dollars over three years, which averages to 20 million a year. In return, I guarantee that no matter what needs you have, as long as you speak up, the entire Hongmen will be at your disposal!"

Zhong Yunqiu's heart was trembling.

"60 million US dollars over three years, that's nearly 500 million Hong Kong dollars!"
