Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chapter 243: Testing and Questioning

Chen Haonan is indeed one of the leading figures of Hongxing, just like Lu Yongqiang. On the surface, their identities and status are similar, but in reality, Chen Haonan and Lu Yongqiang are not even in the same league.

In fact, when joining a gang, sometimes it is not just about who has the bigger territory or who has more subordinates. More often than not, it depends on whether the person can make money and whether he has any stable industry. Money is the real standard of measurement.

Chen Haonan was Jiang Tiansheng's confidant, so Jiang Tiansheng naturally couldn't bear to see him suffer, so he quickly stepped forward to act as a peacemaker.

Lu Yongqiang ran to Jiang Tiansheng's place at night, not to target Chen Haonan, but he had other purposes. After Jiang Tiansheng spoke, he stopped while he was ahead and didn't bother with the idiot Chen Haonan.

After Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang said, "Mr. Jiang, Ding Yao came to see me late at night. She said a few nonsense words in front of me. What she said seemed to be trying to sow discord. I don't know what she meant, so I came to discuss it with you at night."

"Mr. Jiang, Ding Yao said that you voluntarily gave up the operating rights of the casino in the new Taipa hotel, which gave the Triple Gang an opportunity. I wonder if this is true?"

As soon as Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, before Jiang Tiansheng could say anything, Chen Yao spoke first: "Nonsense! It's simply nonsense!"

"Ah Qiang, don't listen to Ding Yao's nonsense. It was clearly the Triple Alliance who used all means to steal our Hongxing business, and now they are even slandering Mr. Jiang. Ding Yao is simply courting death."

After Chen Yao finished speaking, Jiang Tiansheng said, "Aqiang, I think Ding Yao must have told you more than just this little thing, otherwise you wouldn't have come to me in such a hurry. She must have said something else. Why don't you just tell me everything and I'll answer your questions one by one."

Lu Yongqiang raised his hand and gave a thumbs-up, saying, "Mr. Jiang is indeed the leader of our Hongxing. His guess is quite accurate. Ding Yao did mention something else."

"Ding Yao told me that Mr. Jiang voluntarily gave up the right to operate the casino in the new Taipa hotel because he had reached a mutual assistance agreement with Lei Gong to eliminate dissidents."

"She said that the last time Mr. Jiang and Brother Yao went to Taiwan, Lei Gong met with Mr. Jiang and Brother Yao privately.

At that time, Brother Yao proposed that we, the Hongxing Gang, should go to war with the Sanlian Gang under the pretext of the robbery of the casino operating rights. Afterwards, Mr. Jiang helped Lei Gong eliminate the leaders of the Tian and Di halls of the Sanlian Gang.

And Lei Gong helped Mr. Jiang to eliminate the four of us, Han Bin, Prince, and Xiyan."

"According to Ding Yao, Mr. Jiang is jealous of my small business, so he wants to get rid of me and then take over my business.

The reason for dealing with Han Bin was that Han Bin's influence in Hongxing was too great and had threatened Jiang Tiansheng's position in Hongxing.

To deal with Xiyan, it seems that they say Xiyan is an old stubborn man who has been insisting on those outdated rules and has seriously affected the development of the society, so they have to get rid of him.

As for the Crown Prince, Ding Yao didn't elaborate, but simply said that the Crown Prince and Mr. Jiang were not on the same page, so he had to be eliminated."

As soon as Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, the faces of everyone in the room changed.

Chen Yao's brows were tightly furrowed, and a hint of fear and panic flashed in his eyes.

This is no small matter. None of the four people Lu Yongqiang mentioned just now are easy to deal with. Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, as long as one person has doubts in his heart, Chen Yao must always pay attention to his own safety, as he might die one day.

Although Chen Yao has great power in Hongxing, all his power comes from Jiang Tiansheng, the leader of Hongxing, which is a bit like a castle in the air.

Everyone gives face to Jiang Tiansheng, so Chen Yao is considered a person of character. If everyone falls out with Jiang Tiansheng, Chen Yao will be the first to suffer.

People may not kill Jiang Tiansheng because of his status as the leader of the Hongxing Hung Hing community. However, the same may not be true for Chen Yao, the white paper fan, especially since Chen Yao does not have his own territory or subordinates, making him the most suitable target.

Jiang Tiansheng's face darkened slightly. Although Lu Yongqiang spoke in a relaxed tone and with a smile on his face, Jiang Tiansheng knew that Lu Yongqiang was questioning him. If he could not give Lu Yongqiang a satisfactory explanation, these words tonight might spread throughout the entire Hongxing tomorrow, and then he, the leader of Hongxing, would be in trouble.

The prince's face also darkened slightly, and he looked at Chen Yao and Jiang Tiansheng with suspicion and vigilance.

The prince is not actually Jiang Tiansheng's man. He just has a good relationship with Jiang Tiansheng's younger brother Jiang Tianyang. He helps Jiang Tiansheng only for Jiang Tianyang's sake.

Therefore, when facing Jiang Tiansheng, the prince could not be said to be respectful or obedient, nor could it be said that they were of the same mind.

Although Chen Haonan is not very smart, he is not stupid either. After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Chen Haonan's face looked a little ugly.

Although what Lu Yongqiang said just now had nothing to do with him, Chen Haonan, but as Jiang Tiansheng's confidant, if anyone wanted to deal with Jiang Tiansheng, the first person to be eliminated would be Chen Yao, and the second person to be eliminated would be him, Chen Haonan.

The entire conference room fell into silence, the atmosphere became extremely tense, and everyone had their own thoughts and concerns in their hearts.

Even Lu Yongqiang was the same. He was worried that what Ding Yao said was true and Jiang Tiansheng was really planning to eliminate him, Han Bin, the prince, and Xiyan. Now that he questioned him like this, Jiang Tiansheng would get angry and kill him immediately. Then tonight would probably be another bloody battle.

After a long while, Jiang Tiansheng spoke and broke the tense atmosphere in the room.

Jiang Tiansheng said, "Aqiang, what Ding Yao said is completely nonsense. You, Han Bin, Xiyan, and Taizi are the top four of the thirteen leaders of Hongxing.

As the leader of the Hongxing clan, I would be crazy to think of getting rid of you guys."

"If we, Hongxing, lose the four of you, the entire society's strength will probably drop by half. Hong Kong City is far from peaceful right now, with conflicts breaking out between societies from time to time. If Hongxing's strength drops by half, then Heliansheng and Dongxing, who have always been eyeing us, will not miss this opportunity and will definitely take advantage of us immediately..."

Although Jiang Tiansheng's explanation is a bit far-fetched, it can still be considered reasonable.

The reason why it is a bit far-fetched is that eliminating four people will indeed cause Hongxing to suffer a serious loss of strength, but what about eliminating one or two people? Although Hongxing's strength will be damaged, it is completely within the tolerance range.

Just like the Five Tigers of Dongxing, if all five of them were killed, Dongxing might lose its position as a top society. However, the death of one or two people, although there would be some turmoil, would not affect the overall situation.

The same is true for Hung Hing. If one or two of its thirteen leaders die, there will be turmoil in Hung Hing, but it will not affect the overall situation. If a waste like Fat Lai dies, it will have no impact at all, and it may even be a good thing.

Regardless of whether Jiang Tiansheng was plotting against him secretly, Lu Yongqiang didn't want to fall out with Jiang Tiansheng for the time being. The reason he made this trip tonight, in addition to testing and questioning Jiang Tiansheng, he had other purposes.

After Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang didn't care whether his words were far-fetched or not, and directly agreed: "Mr. Jiang's words make sense. I think the same as mine. I also think that what Ding Yao said is nonsense."

"The reason I mentioned those words just now is because that woman Ding Yao secretly contacted me and actually wanted to cooperate with me."

"She said that Chen Haonan and Shan Ji killed Lei Gong, and this is a blood feud. Next, the Sanlian Gang will force us Hongxing to hand over Chen Haonan. If we don't hand him over, they will go to war with us Hongxing."

"According to Ding Yao, she will focus on Brother Yao and Chen Haonan next, and may even take action against Mr. Jiang. And she needs me to deal with Su Hao, the leader of the Sanlian Gang Heaven."

"Ding Yao is a very ambitious woman. She is not satisfied with just temporarily taking over the position of leader of the Sanlian Gang. She wants to be the official leader of the Sanlian Gang and even wants to be like Lei Gong and hold power in the Sanlian Gang for a long time."

"After Lei Gong's death, the most likely candidate to become the next leader of the Sanlian Gang is Su Hao, the leader of the Heaven Hall. If Ding Yao wants to become the leader of the Sanlian Gang, she must get rid of Su Hao."

"The reason this woman came to me was to use me to help her get rid of Su Hao."

"She had good intentions, but I'm not stupid. I saw at a glance that she was using me, so I rejected her without mercy."

"Although I rejected this woman, if she really attacks Brother Yao or Mr. Jiang, and then produces evidence of my meeting with her and then says some nonsense, I'm afraid someone will misunderstand me."

"That's why I came to see Mr. Jiang overnight. Firstly, we want to talk it out in advance to avoid misunderstandings later. Secondly, it's also a reminder to Mr. Jiang and Brother Yao to be more careful recently and bring more bodyguards with you to avoid any accidents."

At this point, Lu Yongqiang stood up and walked over to Chen Yao, patted Chen Yao on the shoulder, and said with concern: "Brother Yao, Mr. Jiang is the leader of our Hongxing. If the Sanlian Gang does not want to fight to the death with our Hongxing, they should not attack Mr. Jiang.

In addition, Mr. Jiang is always protected by dozens of bodyguards. Even if the Triple Alliance Gang wanted to take risks, it would be difficult to succeed. Therefore, Mr. Jiang is not particularly dangerous.

"But Brother Yao, you're different. Although you hold a high position in Hongxing and are the white paper fan of the society, you have never had your own sect. You have status in the society, but your importance is not great."

"Brother Yao, the Triple Alliance might actually attack you. Even if something happens to you, the society won't fight the Triple Alliance to the death. You better be careful recently, or you might get killed by them!"

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang patted Chen Yao's shoulders a few more times, and then continued, "Brother Yao, we are all brothers. If anything happens to you, I will help you take care of your sister-in-law and two nephews, and I will definitely not let them be bullied."

As Lu Yongqiang spoke, Chen Yao's face became more and more ugly. After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Chen Yao's face turned completely black.

Chen Yao looked up at Lu Yongqiang, then turned to look at Jiang Tiansheng and said, "Aqiang, even if something really happens to me, my wife and children don't need your help to take care of them. I believe Mr. Jiang will definitely take good care of them for me."

"Mr. Jiang, if something happens to me, please take care of my family for me and don't let them get bullied."
