Chapter 7
Back at the bar, Chen Fan took out 10,000 yuan and handed it to Fly. "This is your reward. When you put on the bandage, wrap it around a few more times and have someone pour some red dye on it to stain it."
Fly scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Brother Fan, this is too much money."
"Take it if I give it to you. It's for the club's business, and I'll have to write it down in the ledger later."
Using gang money to support his underlings wasn't a precedent set by Chen Fan; he learned it from that good-for-nothing Da Yu.
If you don't take it and I don't take it, how can the higher-ups reach out and how can they balance their accounts?
After getting rid of the flies, Chen Fan called Ahua over and said, "Spread the word as quickly as possible that Chen Haonan killed Hong Tai's son."
"I'll go find someone to get some fresh air right now!"
"Don't go to your own people, go to the big shots outside and spread the word. It would be best if the whole martial arts world knew about this by tomorrow."
"OK!"
Ahua smiled and gave an OK sign.
"By the way, contact the outsider again and have him investigate what assets Hongtai's leader and core members have, especially factories. It would be best to also investigate their confidants and subordinates, such as Wei Jixiang."
If Chen Fan remembered correctly, Chen Tailong's character in the movie was a drug dealer, but the drug factory he worked at was a pirated CD factory. The timeline of this world is unverifiable, but the development of science and technology and the progress of major historical events are the same. Therefore, there are no CDs yet, so they need to find other factories.
If the next generation of leaders in Hongtai are all involved in drug trafficking, how can the others possibly be clean?
If you're going to do something, do it all at once.
Chen Fan is very envious of Hung Tai's territory in Mong Kok!
Most importantly, Wong Bing-yiu is located in the West Kowloon Headquarters, which allows him to establish a foothold in Mong Kok. Chen Fan must have connections in the higher-ups.
If you send Hong Tai as a gift, Huang Bingyao, the superintendent, will be at least imprisoned.
Given this sentiment, isn't it reasonable to ask the other person to turn a blind eye?
Ahua was startled and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Fan, is this investigation too extensive? Do we have enough funds?"
"Tell him to give me the information within three days, and I'll settle the bill with him within ten days. We've cooperated so many times already, a few days' credit won't kill us."
"clear."
Ahua understood immediately.
"Airplane, I've put a tuna in the big refrigerator. Please have some sashimi and a late-night snack. Don't wait for me."
Chen Fan gave a shout and led Ao Ming to Dayu's hideout.
He didn't intend to kill the other party. Although the job they assigned was done a step too late and someone else "snatched it up," he still managed to smash up Hong Tai-zhao's nightclub, so he definitely deserved credit for it.
"I didn't realize you were so generous!" Ao Ming said casually.
The cost of the herbal medicine is 10,000 yuan, which is equivalent to several months' salary for many people.
Chen Fan grinned: "This is one of my few good qualities."
"Those five guys were the scapegoats you found, weren't they?"
"How can you call them scapegoats? I was just giving those hotheads a chance to make a name for themselves."
"Heh, why don't you ask them for a thank you?"
Ao Ming was speechless.
He clearly set a trap for someone, but this guy turned falling into it into a good thing. He's really shameless!
"Wait in the car, I'll be out soon."
Upon arriving at Daewoo's place, Chen Fan was the first to push open the door and get out of the car.
Ao Ming yawned and said, "You didn't even pay me, so I'm too lazy to help you. Hurry up and finish your work so I can take you home. Staying up late is bad for your skin."
"I'll do it as soon as possible."
Chen Fan quickly slipped into Dayu's den, a nightclub called "Qingwei".
"Boss."
"Afan?" Upon seeing Chen Fan, Da Yu frowned and asked, "Shouldn't you be working right now?"
"There was a little mishap. I sent my underlings to scout the place ahead of time, but they got beaten up by Hung Tai's men first. So I took the brothers to do the job ahead of time. We didn't manage to kill anyone; B's Chen Haonan beat us to it. But I had the nightclub smashed up. I guess that counts as avenging Uncle Bo, right?"
"You mean Big B's men also went to chop that guy up?"
Da Yu couldn't help but wonder, when did Da B learn to mend pots?
If a roughneck can't get things done, doesn't it always wait for the leader to select someone else to do it?
"That's right, the fifty brothers that Brother Cheng entrusted to me can all testify for them, I wouldn't dare to steal the credit from my fellow disciples."
"How many times was that bastard slashed? You really didn't participate in even one strike?"
"I didn't even take a knife. I just punched Hongtai's toughest guy, the Red Pole, once, and then I smashed up the shop. I didn't do anything else. As for whether that bastard is dead or not, I don't know. Anyway, when we got there, he was already hacked to pieces."
"Hahaha!"
Daewoo smiled, a truly radiant smile.
"Afan, you did a great job. Although you didn't manage to cut down that guy, you still managed to beat Wei Jixiang, which is a merit. I will report to Mr. Jiang later and have you promoted to Red Pole."
"Boss, I know my own limitations perfectly well. Red sticks aren't suitable for me, and straw sandals don't have that many connections. You'd better find me a white paper fan to accompany me."
Chen Fan didn't want to be a scapegoat; Red Stick was the fastest-dying big shot in the martial arts world right now.
Looking at all the triads in Hong Kong, the vast majority of those who can hold the positions of leader or director are just ordinary people, with very few being political figures.
The underworld today is no longer the law-abiding place it used to be. The best way for newcomers to make a name for themselves is to take down the top members of rival gangs; doing so will quickly make them famous.
Da Yu asked in surprise, "You want to make a white paper fan?"
"Is that not allowed?"
"Okay! Of course, I just didn't expect your demands to be so low." Da Yu thought for a moment, then called out, "Ah Chao, go count 10... 300,000 and give it to Ah Fan."
Snake Boy got up, went to the finance office, took back 300,000 yuan, and placed it in front of Chen Fan.
"Boss, what's this?"
Chen Fan was astonished that a miser like him would actually pluck his feathers.
Da Yu laughed and said, "This is the start-up capital for you to recruit people. Even if Bai Zhishan is low-key, he is still a big player. Having a few more underlings around will make things easier for you."
If he had known earlier that Chen Fan was the kind of person who wanted to make white paper fans, he wouldn't have entrusted the task of killing people to Chen Fan.
Da Tou Cheng and She Zai Chao are his confidants, and they can stay in power for at least another seven or eight years. Chen Fan is too young, and Da Yu is afraid that Chen Fan will try to get a high-ranking position, at which point Da Tou Cheng and even he will be in danger of being replaced.
Chen Fan and he hadn't known each other for very long. These days, people who value loyalty are rare, especially those who are good at using their brains.
Da Yu hasn't made enough money yet, and he doesn't want to become like Uncle Bo, who was put on a senior position but still has to come out and earn money for retirement.
"By the way, there's another big battle tomorrow night. Afan, get your men ready. After this battle, you can relax and wait for your promotion," Da Yu continued.
"Boss, just give me whatever you need. I'll do my best to get things done."
Chen Fan looked like he was willing to go through fire and water for the big boss, and everyone who saw him would praise his loyalty.
Da Yu patted Chen Fan on the shoulder and laughed, "Relax, this time A-Cheng is leading the team. Our goal is to take over all of Hong Tai's territory in Kowloon City, with a focus on attacking the Chicken and Duck Pen."
"Understood, I will definitely follow Brother Cheng's instructions."
