Chapter 191: Hung Hing's Great Change (Early Month, Asking for Monthly Votes)
At 2:30 PM, Hung Hing Ancestral Hall, Hall of Brotherhood.
The Twelve Hall Masters and their subordinates, the Big Bosses, had all arrived.
General meetings didn't usually forbid the Big Bosses under the Hall Masters from attending and listening, as being a Big Boss qualified them to participate in important Triad matters.
Meetings, no matter where they were held, were a necessary means of effective communication.
Of course, endless meetings became annoying.
Fortunately, Hung Hing's members were all practical people and generally didn't hold very long meetings; they focused on pragmatism rather than empty talk.
Hon Ban keenly noticed that something was amiss:
"Ah Kun, even Sixth Uncle is here?"
"Aren't we supposed to discuss Mr. Chiang's attack today?"
Liang Kun couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth:
"Something good is happening today."
Hon Ban was very curious:
"What good thing?"
Liang Kun threw an arm around Hon Ban's shoulder:
"My good news, and also our great good news."
Hon Ban was even more confused:
"Today's meeting is nothing more than Sixth Uncle announcing the new Dragon Head, and then discussing how to avenge Mr. Chiang..."
"Is that considered good news?"
Liang Kun said solemnly:
"Of course, this is good news."
Hon Ban couldn't help but look at Lin Feng, and saw that Lin Feng was uncharacteristically sitting upright and properly. Behind him, Li Fu stood like a bodyguard.
"What the hell is going on?"
Hon Ban wanted to ask again, but Sixth Uncle had already started the meeting.
Chiang Tin-Yeung temporarily sat in Hung Hing's main seat:
"Everyone, I've called you here today to announce some good news."
"My elder brother has woken up. Nam Tsai's medical skills are excellent. He has completely passed the danger period, and all that's left is to slowly recover from his injuries."
All the Hall Masters collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that Chiang Tin-Sung hadn't died.
If Chiang Tin-Sung had died, then Hung Hing would have had to fight with other Triads.
It might sound disloyal to Chiang Tin-Sung, but in reality, no Big Boss wanted a fight.
What did they get into this life for?
Making money first!
A major Triad war would inevitably cause social upheaval, and the police would certainly be watching the instigators twenty-five hours a day. Nothing else needed to be said; just checking IDs would be enough to give Hung Hing a hard time.
Chiang Tin-Sung's safety was indeed important, but to cause 30,000 Hung Hing members to go hungry for one person, that wouldn't be good, right?
However, the Triad's public image was "loyalty and righteousness." If Chiang Tin-Sung died and Hung Hing didn't avenge him, then they might as well disband.
This was a dilemma.
Fortunately, Chiang Tin-Sung was fine.
All the Hall Masters' faces relaxed.
Chiang Tin-Yeung smiled, assuming that the Hall Masters and Big Bosses were relieved for Chiang Tin-Sung, and dared not think of anything else.
"So, there's a second matter."
"Due to his current physical condition, my elder brother has decided to retire. Once his injuries heal, he will hold a golden basin washing hands ceremony."
"This Dragon Head position will be vacated."
"Our Hung Hing system is that the Twelve Hall Masters and the Dragon Head rule together, so, for the new Chairman to take office, he needs to be publicly nominated by all the Hall Masters."
None of the Hall Masters had any objections.
Although everyone knew that Chiang Tin-Yeung taking over the Chairman position was already a foregone conclusion, the fact that he went through the process in the Hall of Brotherhood still showed respect for them, the Hall Masters.
Everyone was satisfied with the Chiang family's performance.
In this life, what people wanted was face. If you're good and I'm good, then everyone can be good.
Chiang Tin-Yeung smiled and said:
"My elder brother, Chiang Tin-Sung, prefers Mong Kok Hall Master Liang Kun... Everyone, please make your public nominations."
What?!
The Hall Masters and Big Bosses were in an uproar.
Hon Ban jolted, suddenly realizing that Liang Kun had known all along. This was good news, not just for Liang Kun, but also for him, Hon Ban.
Just as Hon Ban was about to raise his hand in agreement, he saw someone stand up with a 'whoosh':
"I approve!"
Looking closely, it was Lin Feng.
Lin Feng laughed loudly:
"The two Mr. Chiangs truly have good judgment, choosing my Big Boss. No doubt, my Big Boss is the most suitable candidate."
Liang Kun couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth.
What is a trusted confidant? This is a trusted confidant.
Supporting you unconditionally and without reason.
He truly was someone he had raised since childhood; he was indeed close to him.
"If we talk about the relationships between Hall Masters in Hung Hing, if my Big Boss says he's number one, who among you dares to say number two?"
Everyone agreed in unison.
Honestly, Liang Kun was a dashing and generous person; if others sought his help, he basically granted every request.
Liang Kun also didn't hoard; he truly helped the Hall Masters earn a lot of money.
His popularity was top-notch.
Only one and a half people were at odds with Liang Kun: one was Fatty Lai, and the half was Sai B.
However, both of them had gone to sell salted duck eggs (died), so naturally, no one objected.
"My Big Boss wholeheartedly worked for Grandfather. When Prince was stationed in Tsim Sha Tsui as a 'cannon platform', it was my Big Boss who provided full support."
"Prince?"
Prince said seriously:
"If it weren't for Ah Kun and Ah Feng, I wouldn't have been able to establish myself in Tsim Sha Tsui."
Was being a 'cannon platform' that easy?
Without territory, one could only fight guerrilla warfare. If there was no one supporting them from behind, it would be difficult to gain a firm foothold.
Thanks to Liang Kun and Lin Feng, the two brothers, if it weren't for their support, even someone as strong as Prince would have ended up like a stray dog.
"When Sister Mei first took over as the Hall Master of Portland Street, who provided the most support?"
Sister Thirteen laughed:
"Brother Kun!"
Lin Feng pointed at Sister Thirteen and said:
"Sister Mei's business acumen is undeniable, but her high-end combat power was indeed a bit lacking. It was my Big Boss and Prince who helped her gain a firm foothold."
"Now, Sister Mei's hall is slowly growing and expanding to other parts of Yau Ma Tei."
"As for the others..."
"Arcade games, no need to mention them, right? Everyone got a share, didn't they?"
Everyone repeatedly said:
"Yes!"
It must be said, the Mong Kok brothers sharing the arcade games, especially the slot machines, with all the Hall Masters, truly garnered a lot of goodwill.
This was an incredible feat.
Everyone loved money, and being able to share it with others, not hoarding it, truly required great willpower.
"And the various cinemas, those are projects that are either about to start or have already started construction, no need to explain, right?"
Everyone's faces beamed even more.
Those in this life didn't have much education; money laundering was a super high-end job they couldn't handle.
Liang Kun gave them a way out.
Once the cinemas were built, how much money they wanted to launder in a day, wouldn't that be up to them?
Finally, they wouldn't have to be exploited for this, how much more money would they earn?
Lin Feng continued:
"With Big D from Wo Luen Shing's Tsuen Wan branch coming over, that will be another huge source of income. Everyone, isn't that a great contribution?"
Hon Ban shouted:
"This is the merit of expanding territory!"
Everyone responded with a roar, and someone started clapping; for a moment, the Hall of Brotherhood was filled with thunderous applause.
Lin Feng yelled:
"This Dragon Head position, besides my Big Boss, who else is qualified to take it?"
Chiang Tin-Yeung was good at creating atmosphere, and with a gesture, he said:
"Please welcome Hung Hing's third Dragon Head, Lee Chin-Kwan, to his position!"
Liang Kun stood up, feigning modesty:
"Does everyone agree?"
Hon Ban raised his hand high:
"I, the Kwai Tsing Hall Master, approve."
Ba Bi followed closely:
"I, the Aberdeen Hall Master, approve."
Sister Thirteen was not to be outdone:
"I, Portland Street, approve."
Then came a string of approvals.
Sixth Uncle was very excited:
"According to our Hung Hing rules, if all the Hall Masters approve, then our Hung Hing's third Chairman is Lee Chin-Kwan!"
Liang Kun then went to the main seat and sat down.
Chiang Tin-Yeung's smile, like Liang Kun's, couldn't be suppressed. With this hot potato of a position thrown out, the affairs of Hung Hing's main branch would have nothing to do with his Siam branch.
He could go back to Siam and be a local emperor.
Comfortable!
Chiang Tin-Yeung led the way, saying:
"Greetings, Dragon Head."
Everyone responded loudly:
"Greetings, Dragon Head."
Liang Kun stood up and said:
"From now on, I ask all my brothers and sisters to assist me, so that we can together build Hung Hing bigger and stronger, and we will earn even more money!"
All the Hall Masters and Big Bosses cheered excitedly.
What serious atmosphere of the Hall of Brotherhood? That was nothing; making money was the priority.
Liang Kun said:
"Now that I am Chairman, there are a few urgent matters."
"First, Chiang Tin-Yeung of the Siam branch will henceforth become Hung Hing's main branch's 438, Second Marshal."
Chiang Tin-Yeung was stunned, then overjoyed:
"Thank you, Dragon Head."
Second Marshal was a nominal position; he didn't need to hold any position in the main branch. This was purely Liang Kun's respect for the Chiang family.
Neither Hung Hing's Hall Masters nor its Big Bosses objected.
After all, Chiang Tin-Yeung had just served as acting Dragon Head last night.
If he hadn't declined the Dragon Head position, it wouldn't have been Liang Kun's turn to sit in the Chairman's seat.
Even if others had opinions, it wasn't their place to speak.
"Second, former Dragon Head Mr. Chiang was attacked in the teahouse. Hung Hing must launch a retaliatory action."
Hon Ban immediately chimed in:
Brother Kun, this is hard to investigate. There was no news in the Triad yesterday night.
Everyone nodded in unison.
Liang Kun said:
"It's already been found out."
Everyone was greatly astonished. It had already been found out?
No way?
Involuntarily, everyone looked at Lin Feng, who was baffled by their gazes:
"Why are you looking at me?"
Liang Kun waved his hand:
"Chicken, you tell them."
Everyone was greatly surprised. It wasn't Lin Feng who found it out?
Hon Ban's heart suddenly stirred, and the corners of his mouth curved up. He already understood the truth of the matter.
He looked at Chiang Tin-Yeung and saw that the latter showed no surprise at all, which made him even clearer:
"Liang Kun is promoting Chicken!"
"Chicken is really lucky."
Chicken was a little nervous at being called out so suddenly. He composed himself and said:
"When I heard about this, I instinctively felt that one person was problematic."
"So I secretly sent people to investigate."
Hon Ban decided to see the good deed through to the end. He was now deeply tied to Liang Kun's faction. If nothing unexpected happened, this kid would be the one to replace Liang Kun as the Mong Kok Hall Master.
Hon Ban didn't mind doing him a favor.
"Who is it?"
Chicken said:
"Lui Yiu-Yeung."
"Everyone remembers, right? The extermination of the entire family of Sai B was done by Lui Yiu-Yeung."
"He did other things afterward that you might not know about."
"He also buried Chan Ho-Nam and his group alive."
"This happened after our negotiations."
Ba Bi was completely incredulous:
"I can understand Lui Yiu-Yeung's treatment of Chan Ho-Nam and his group; that was to vent anger."
"But Mr. Chiang was with Camel, who is his boss."
"Does this guy even cut down his own boss?"
Chicken shrugged:
"He didn't do it alone; there were others..."
Ba Bi frowned:
"Who?"
Chicken continued:
"Besides Lui Yiu-Yeung, there were also Crow and Smiling Tiger."
Ba Bi's mouth fell open,
"Are these three crazy? This is betraying their master and destroying their ancestors."
Hon Ban was thoughtful:
"Regarding Crow, I did hear something..."
"This guy even dared to chop down the statue of Lord Guan, so committing acts of betraying his master and destroying his ancestors is considered normal."
How the hell is that normal?
Everyone in the Hall of Brotherhood felt a chill.
Most people who mix in the Triad believe in fate.
They worship Lord Guan more diligently than anyone else. In any Hall of Brotherhood, the green Straw Sandal Lord Guan is always placed in the center, and even ancestral tablets, generations of ancestors, are placed below Lord Guan.
It can be said that Lord Guan is their spiritual belief.
For Chan Tin-hung, a lowlifes, to dare to swing a knife at Lord Guan meant completely severing the roots of the Triad. In that light, his betrayal of his master and destruction of his ancestors was not so surprising.
Ba Bi took a while to close his mouth:
"This news is too significant. It's not that I doubt Chicken... If it's confirmed incorrectly, it will lead to a Triad war."
Liang Kun nodded:
"Brother Kei's concerns are reasonable, but there's no need to worry. We have already confirmed that this news is true."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Ba Bi quickly asked:
"Who confirmed it?"
Liang Kun called out another name:
"Ah Feng."
Lin Feng said lazily:
"Hung Hing uncle, Ah Bun."
"He personally told me that this matter was done by Crow, Lui Yiu-Yeung, and Smiling Tiger together."
"Ah Bun said he wanted to give us an explanation, but Camel hasn't woken up, so some methods can't be used."
"The Tung Sing uncles have concerns."
Ba Bi angrily said:
"Why keep these guys who betray their master and destroy their ancestors?"
"Are we going to keep them and let the Triad fall into chaos?"
"If Crow and these people are not punished, will we, as big bosses, still have anyone we can trust?"
"No matter what, those three cannot live!"
Everyone nodded, no one had any objections.
This was a very obvious matter.
A simple statement would suffice: the two words 'loyalty' and 'righteousness' are fundamental. Regardless of whether you believe in this spirit or adhere to it, it is indeed the spiritual pillar of Triad Young and Dangerous.
If no one believed in this anymore, the Triad would completely collapse.
In the future, the big ones wouldn't trust the small ones, and the small ones could backstab the old ones at any time.
It could be said that this was no longer an internal matter for Tung Sing; it concerned the entire Triad.
Even the madmen of Chung Yee Shun wouldn't support such a thing if they heard about it. Crow and the others had to be eliminated no matter what.
Allowing them to live one more day was being irresponsible to one's own safety.
Liang Kun clapped his hands:
"I will communicate this matter with the Tung Sing uncles."
"If they don't give us a reply within three days, we will have to take matters into our own hands."
Everyone nodded in unison.
Liang Kun then said:
"According to the rules of the Triad, since I have become the Dragon Head, the position of Mong Kok Hall Master is automatically vacant. Who is suitable for it?"
Everyone looked at each other, speechless.
Isn't it obvious?
Hon Ban smiled and said:
"According to our tradition, if a Hall Master position is vacant, it will be contested by the big bosses of that area."
"The big bosses of Mong Kok are Chicken, Sa Keung, and Ah Niu."
"However, Chicken has rendered great service, so let him take this position."
Sister Thirteen nodded repeatedly:
"I agree."
The Prince said without thinking:
"I agree."
Lin Feng said calmly:
"Chicken is good."
Once these few spoke, the others immediately had no differing opinions.
Sa Keung and Ah Niu exchanged glances, sighing helplessly.
Well, they weren't destined to be Hall Masters, so they might as well honestly remain big bosses.
Liang Kun clapped his hands,
"Since everyone has no objections, then, Chicken, you are the Hall Master of Mong Kok starting today."
Chicken excitedly walked to the chair representing the Mong Kok Hall Master and quickly thanked him:
"Thank you, Dragon Head."
He rose to prominence in one fell swoop!
It felt so good to follow the right boss.
He thought about how before, his boss was Chan Ho-Nam's godson, Sai B. He never went hungry nine times a day, after all, Sai B wouldn't mistreat his godson, would he?
But to say he was doing well was not necessarily true.
He spent all his days messing around at the bottom, thinking he was awesome for bullying a passerby.
It wasn't until he joined Liang Kun's faction that he truly understood what the Triad was about.
How long had it been? He had risen steadily, from a Four-Nine to a big boss, and from a big boss to a Hall Master.
At this moment, Chicken felt like a protagonist in a novel, having received the best script, achieving the position of Hall Master with almost no effort.
This was a position he hadn't even dared to dream of before.
It felt even better than a threesome!
Liang Kun continued:
"Hung Hing's previous system was very complete. This is a valuable asset Mr. Chiang left me. We will still follow the old rules."
"The most important thing right now is to avenge Mr. Chiang."
"Everyone must be vigilant against Tung Sing."
Ba Bi frowned:
"Camel was attacked by Crow and his group. The Tung Sing uncles can't all be senile, can they, still following the orders of Crow and others?"
Liang Kun sighed:
"Hard to say!"
Ba Bi's mouth fell open again:
"Ah Kun, what does that mean?"
Liang Kun sighed:
"If something like this happened in my Hung Hing, we would probably have to bring the person to trial before the Hall of Brotherhood."
"My Hung Hing is different from their faction; the Twelve Hall Masters share power with the Dragon Head."
"However, other Triads ultimately listen to their Dragon Head."
"Tung Sing is not like Wo Luen Shing, where the Leader is just a mascot. As long as Camel doesn't wake up, the Tung Sing uncles will be hesitant to do anything."
Ba Bi sighed helplessly.
"However..."
Liang Kun changed the subject,
"We won't just wait around. I'll contact Ah Bun in a bit and give them a final deadline. Our Hung Hing doesn't easily stir up trouble, but we're not afraid of it either."
"Our goal is to make money, but if anyone bullies us, I'll be the first to stop it."
"Not to mention Mr. Chiang was our former Dragon Head. I need to give Mr. Chiang an explanation for this matter."
Everyone nodded in unison, all agreeing that it made sense.
Uncle Six asked:
"Ah Kun, now that you're the Dragon Head, should we notify the other Triads?"
"Should we hold a ceremony?"
Liang Kun thought for a moment and said:
"The other Triads should be notified, but let's postpone the ceremony. Mr. Chiang is still in the hospital, and Crow and others haven't been brought to justice yet..."
"Let's talk about it after we've finished this matter."
Chiang Tin-Yeung immediately felt relieved, confirming that choosing Liang Kun as the Triad Dragon Head was the right decision.
***
Chapter 192 Lam Wai Lok's Congratulatory Gift (Seeking Monthly Votes at the Beginning of the Month)
"The worst-case scenario is what we need to worry about now."
Liang Kun looked at the various Hall Masters.
"If Camel doesn't wake up, and Tung Sing's Uncles are reluctant to reveal the truth, then Tung Sing might be deceived by Crow and the other two."
"Don't forget, they are three of the Five Tigers."
"If they use the excuse of avenging Camel to pin the blame on us, that would be a huge problem."
The good-natured Brother Kei was deeply shocked:
"They can be that shameless?"
Sister Thirteen really couldn't stand Brother Kei's personality and couldn't help but say:
"Brother Kei, Crow even dared to chop down the statue of Second Master. He's already committed acts of betraying his master and destroying his ancestors. What else can't they do?"
"You can't judge others by yourself. You are kind-hearted, but they are not."
Liang Kun nodded slightly:
"Sister Thirteen is right. We must assume the worst about Crow and his gang."
"It's always good to be prepared."
Brother Kei smiled awkwardly.
Everyone understood that as the only active veteran of Hung Hing for three generations, Brother Kei had no ill intentions.
Liang Kun clapped his hands,
"Since that's the case, everyone go do your own thing."
"I'm merely following established rules, everything will be handled according to Mr. Chiang's previous regulations."
"Mr. Chiang, Chan Yiu, please stay."
Everyone rose and retreated.
Liang Kun, sharp-eyed, saw Lin Feng about to leave and quickly called out:
"You stay too."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes helplessly. He was being conscripted again. He thought he would have to take Tin Yeng-San to complain to his Godmother later.
Chan Yiu looked uneasy, completely unsure how Liang Kun would arrange things for him. He was, after all, Mr. Chiang's man.
Liang Kun said:
"Chan Yiu, you are the Triad's White Paper Fan. In the future, I'll need you to give me more ideas."
Chan Yiu quickly said:
"Dragon Head, rest assured, I will definitely act according to your will."
Liang Kun was speechless:
"How you acted when Mr. Chiang was in charge, that's how you should act from now on."
"Or are you... only loyal to Mr. Chiang alone?"
Chan Yiu was overjoyed and quickly said:
"Brother Kun, rest assured, I will definitely be your right-hand man."
Only then did Liang Kun nod in satisfaction.
Chiang Tin-Yeung smiled and said:
"Brother Kun, I've witnessed you becoming the Dragon Head. I'll go back and tell my big brother, and then I'll be leaving."
Liang Kun was startled:
"Mr. Chiang is still lying in a hospital bed. You're leaving now?"
"Won't you stay a little longer?"
Chiang Tin-Yeung sighed:
"When I was young, my father invited a master to tell our fortunes. Two tigers should not meet, or one will surely be harmed."
"Although my big brother and I haven't lost contact over the years, the number of times we've met is very few."
"Even when we met abroad, it was only for half a day or a day..."
"The master's prophecy, do you dare not believe it?"
Everyone was silent. Such matters are always better believed than disbelieved.
Furthermore, both brothers are doing well in their respective endeavors, so you can't say that the master was wrong back then.
Liang Kun immediately said:
"Mr. Chiang, please rest assured, I will make Tung Sing give a full account."
Chiang Tin-Yeung smiled and said:
"Brother Kun, I believe you!"
The two embraced warmly, acknowledging each other.
Liang Kun immediately said:
"Chan Yiu, go back with Mr. Chiang, see him off to the plane, ensure his safety, and then come back to see me."
Chan Yiu quickly stood up:
"Brother Kun, rest assured, I will make the arrangements."
"Everyone, if you ever go to Siam, remember to look for me!"
Chiang Tin-Yeung left feeling completely relaxed.
Now, everyone left in the room was his own person.
Lin Feng asked:
"Big Brother, you are now the Dragon Head of Hung Hing. How does it feel to be the Dragon Head?"
Liang Kun smiled and said:
"It feels pretty good."
He thought for a moment, then sighed,
"I originally thought that if I became the Dragon Head, I would be extremely happy, excited beyond words."
"But the result... it's just so-so."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes hard:
"We can say that among ourselves, but if you dare to say such words in front of others, they'll surely be consumed by envy."
Liang Kun also rolled his eyes:
"I'm not stupid."
Lin Feng took out a red envelope and handed it to him.
Liang Kun asked curiously:
"What is this?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"Consider it a congratulatory gift for you becoming the Dragon Head."
Liang Kun then showed a happy smile:
"You're still the thoughtful one, kid."
He opened the red envelope and looked inside, and his whole body went numb:
"Do you have to be so extravagant?"
Lin Feng smiled and said:
"I've done a few big deals recently, but they were too dangerous, so I didn't tell you, fearing you'd worry."
"Here, this is your share of the profits."
Liang Kun took a deep breath, unusually serious:
"We are brothers for life. If you didn't think of me when you made a fortune, I don't mind, after all, I understand few of your investments."
"But if you don't call me when you're risking your life, then I'll be unhappy."
Lin Feng laughed loudly:
"When have I ever suffered a loss?"
The two brothers exchanged a smile, everything unsaid.
Chicken said nervously:
"Oh no, Big Brother, I didn't prepare anything..."
Lin Feng casually took out another red envelope:
"Here, this is for you."
Chicken was stunned:
"I get one too?"
Lin Feng asked curiously:
"Isn't that obvious?"
"Didn't you just become the Hall Master of Mong Kok?"
"Kid, as a Boss, how can you not have money?"
"You'll be looked down upon."
"money is a hero's courage. Wherever you go, you can't do without money."
"Remember Big Brother's words..."
Chicken quickly said:
"When you're out in the world, making money comes first!"
Lin Feng laughed loudly:
"That's the truth!"
Chicken opened it and was instantly stunned:
"Brother Feng, isn't this too generous?"
Inside the red envelope was a key to a unit in Repulse Bay, and a check for two million.
This was incredibly generous.
Liang Kun glared at Chicken:
"Don't embarrass yourself here."
"If you think this gift is too much, then work hard and return it to Ah Feng later."
Chicken nodded repeatedly.
Liang Kun secretly shook his head, thinking to himself how generous his younger brother was.
What was given to Chicken was a villa, and what was given to himself was also a villa, but not in Repulse Bay, but on Victoria Peak.
What was given to Chicken was a check, and what was given to himself was also a check, but not two million, but twenty million.
What are brothers for?
This is it.
Lin Feng continued:
"The Tung Sing matter hasn't been resolved, so your personal security needs to be stepped up."
"I warned Chiang Tin-Sung several times before to strengthen his personal security, but he never listened..."
"I don't need to worry about what happens to Chiang Tin-Sung, but your security, starting today, I'm in charge of it."
Liang Kun smiled and said:
"Do whatever you want to do, I will fully cooperate."
Lin Feng nodded slightly:
"Since that's the case, then Li Jie will be with you, bringing eight bodyguards."
Mo Chiu-Nam immediately felt threatened:
"Brother Feng, actually, I can protect Brother Kun."
Lin Feng said bluntly:
"Not enough!"
Mo Chiu-Nam was very hurt and wanted to argue, but after carefully considering the other party's combat power, he immediately fell silent.
He couldn't win!
Not only could he not beat Lin Feng, but he couldn't beat Wang Jianjun, Lok Tin-hung, or Li Jie either.
It was very depressing.
Lin Feng, however, gave another reason:
"It's not that I don't trust Ah Wu's integrity. I believe that even if someone attacks Brother Kun, Ah Wu would block bullets."
Liang Kun looked at Mo Chiu-Nam in surprise, who said expressionlessly:
"I took your money, and I must protect your safety. Unless I die, this mission is valid for life."
Mo Chiu-Nam was obsessed with money, but he had the confidence to be obsessed with money; his service was top-notch.
Aside from being a bit reckless, there were no major issues.
Liang Kun burst out laughing.
Lin Feng smiled wryly,
"Ah Wu is, after all, from an artillery background, skilled in offense, but weak in defense. Li Jie is different; his defense is professional."
He waved his hand, and Li Fu took out a document and handed it to Liang Kun.
Liang Kun asked curiously:
"What is this?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"A security agreement."
"The people I'm sending to you are all armed."
Liang Kun was surprised:
"Does it have to be this professional?"
Lin Feng snorted coldly:
"Do you think it's still like before? You are the Dragon Head of Hung Hing; countless people are watching you."
"Being your bodyguard is very dangerous."
"If I don't arrange for a few people with gun licenses, who knows if you'll encounter what happened to Chiang Tin-Sung one day?"
Liang Kun asked puzzled:
"Didn't you say that your Thunder Security only has seven gun licenses?"
Lin Feng said faintly:
"Wong Bing-Yiu owes me a huge favor. If I ask him to add twenty more, would he dare to refuse?"
Liang Kun and Chicken both gave a thumbs up — Brother Feng is awesome!
"Ah Jie was dispatched to Chiang Tin-Yeung's side. Now that Chiang Tin-Yeung has left, Li Jie and his team are free. It's perfect to assign them to you."
Liang Kun worried, "You've arranged Wang Jianjun and Lok Tin-hung at the hospital, and Li Jie by my side…"
"What about you?"
Li Fu mumbled, "Boss Ding, I'm still here."
Liang Kun lightly patted his forehead; he had been foolish.
Li Fu was still here, after all.
With Li Fu around, plus Lin Feng's skills, who could possibly compare to that combination?
Liang Kun said nothing, immediately signing the agreement with a flourish.
Li Fu had two copies of the document; one he gave to Liang Kun, and the other needed to return to Causeway Bay for archiving.
"Does it have to be so serious?"
Liang Kun truly didn't understand.
Lin Feng explained earnestly, "Ah Jie and those eight bodyguards, they are not Hung Hing members; they are from Thunder Security Company."
"We are operating under a legal contract, so no matter who comes, it can be explained clearly."
"If anyone wants to make trouble for you openly, Ah Jie and the others will naturally block them."
"This is a precautionary measure!"
Liang Kun was speechless.
Although the measure was a bit cautious, he could see that his younger brother was truly afraid of something happening to him.
So, he could only let him decide.
Just as everyone sent it down, the phone rang.
Liang Kun looked at it and said to everyone, "It's Big D!"
"Hello, Big D, looking for me to drink?"
Big D's voice was trembling, "Brother Kun, I heard Mr. Chiang was attacked? His life is unknown?"
Liang Kun explained, "This happened yesterday. Now, after surgery, Mr. Chiang is out of danger."
Big D was furious, "Who did it? I'll hack him to death."
Liang Kun asked curiously, "Big D, are you that loyal to Mr. Chiang?"
Big D hesitated, then whispered, "Hung Hing is my foothold. If something happens to Mr. Chiang, what if the promised transfer can't go through?"
Liang Kun laughed loudly, "Don't worry, your transfer date has been set and won't be changed."
"The sixth day of next month, in front of Sam Shing Temple, you will be formally conferred as a 438, Second Marshal."
"I said it."
Big D felt a little relieved and said happily, "It seems Mr. Chiang is fine?"
Liang Kun regretfully said, "Our Triad doctor, Nam Tsai, said that Mr. Chiang will have to be bedridden for at least half a year."
Big D was greatly shocked, "Then what about next month's ceremony?"
"Who will preside?"
Liang Kun shrugged, "Naturally, the new Dragon Head will."
Big D was stunned, "Hung Hing changed Dragon Heads? How come I didn't know?"
Liang Kun explained, "It just changed this afternoon. Sixth Uncle just reported the news to the jianghu. You'll receive the message shortly."
Big D was anxious, "I wonder if the newly appointed Dragon Head will welcome me."
Big D was truly scared; Sun Luen Shing was not a place for people to stay, a den of old foxes, and a simple-minded guy like him couldn't get along with them at all.
That Lam Wai Lok even wanted to talk to him. What was there to talk about?
Liang Kun comforted him, "Don't worry, the new Dragon Head likes you very much."
Big D was overjoyed, "Really?"
Liang Kun nodded, "Believe me, it's true."
Big D asked suspiciously, "How do you know? Are you just comforting me?"
Liang Kun laughed, "Of course I know. Hung Hing's new Dragon Head is me!"
Huh?
Big D jumped up, "Liang Kun, Brother Kun, you've become Hung Hing's third Dragon Head?"
Liang Kun feigned seriousness, "Is that not allowed?"
Big D nodded wildly, "It's absolutely allowed! Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to drinks!"
"How about Arrogance Restaurant at 8:30?"
Liang Kun said with a dark expression, "Why go to Arrogance Restaurant?"
"Bring your Sister-in-law and come here. We brothers will drink until we drop."
Big D laughed heartily, "It's a deal."
Liang Kun hung up the phone, a slight smile on his face.
Lin Feng complained, "Boss, do you have to be so childishly boastful?"
Liang Kun chuckled, "As a hall master, you wouldn't understand the matters of a Dragon Head."
Lin Feng spat fiercely.
"If I were you, I wouldn't just sit idly in the Hall of Brotherhood."
Liang Kun immediately asked, "What should I do?"
Lin Feng shrugged, "You should take a gift and visit Chiang Tin-Sung to discuss Hung Hing's affairs."
"This is a sensitive time, and maintaining good communication with Chiang Tin-Sung is necessary."
"You must make good use of Chan Yiu; it would be a pity not to utilize his talents."
"Oh, and while you're at it, sign a hospital security agreement for us."
Liang Kun readily complied, signing the security agreement Li Fu had produced while asking, "What about you?"
Lin Feng was full of surprise, "You can't possibly want to press-gang me, can you?"
"Is that how you act as a Boss?"
"You finally became the Triad's Dragon Head. Shouldn't you use your connections to get more benefits for your beloved younger brother? Are you going to treat me like a beast of burden?"
"Xiao Fu, remember to notify Ah Min to bring Ah Sang, and let's go complain to Godmother!"
Liang Kun frantically grabbed Lin Feng, "Can you please not go complaining to Old Mother so casually?"
Lin Feng looked at him askance, "Then can you please stop constantly exploiting your younger brother?"
"Hung Hing has so many hall masters, so many people to command, and you just have to pick me?"
Liang Kun raised both hands, "Alright, alright, I can't argue with you. But you can't shirk the Tung Sing matter; I'm leaving this to you."
Lin Feng sighed helplessly, "I'll definitely complain to Godmother about this later. This Boss isn't acting like a human."
Liang Kun rolled his eyes in exasperation.
But there was nothing he could do; the other person just had the knack for pleasing Old Mother. If he wanted to mend his relationship with Old Mother, he still had to rely on Ah Min and the others.
"The Tung Sing matter must be handled well, otherwise, I won't be able to stand firm."
Lin Feng chuckled, "Relax, relax."
"I understand this matter very well; it's a small thing."
"Leave it to me. If Tung Sing doesn't agree to our terms, we'll just contact other Triads to eliminate them."
Chicken listened to the two bicker, grinning, and even when he heard Lin Feng's bold statement, he didn't take it seriously.
Isn't it normal for Young and Dangerous to boast?
Liang Kun, however, was startled, "No, no, no. We prioritize making money. Where did you get this aggression, always wanting to wipe out other Triads at the drop of a hat?"
"If Chung Ching Society is wiped out, then so be it. Those crabs are very annoying."
"Is Tung Sing something that can be wiped out?"
Chicken's mouth fell open, "Brother Feng, are you really going to wipe them out?"
Lin Feng shrugged, "If they don't agree to our terms, then what if we wipe them out?"
"Boss, relax. I'm not an unreasonable person."
Liang Kun muttered, "I suddenly feel it would be better to let Benny handle this."
Lin Feng clapped his hands, "Even better! Anyway, I'm too lazy to bother with such rotten matters."
Liang Kun thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll still consult Chiang Tin-Sung about this and see what he thinks."
Lin Feng smiled, "Then my business here is done. I'm going back."
Liang Kun waved his hand, "Go, go."
Just as they were talking, Chan Yiu, Li Jie, and the others returned.
Chan Yiu said, "Brother Kun, we safely put Mr. Chiang on the plane. Mr. Chiang said that if you have time, you must go to Siam, and he will roll out the red carpet for you."
Liang Kun nodded, "Alright, as long as he's safely delivered."
"Ah Yao, come with me to the hospital to visit Mr. Chiang."
Chan Yiu smiled, "Okay."
Lin Feng said to Li Jie, "Brother Kun just signed an agreement with our Thunder Security. From today on, you and eight brothers will follow Brother Kun."
"Ensure someone is by his side 24 hours a day to guarantee his safety."
Li Jie nodded solemnly, "Boss, don't worry, I will complete the mission."
Lin Feng admonished, "Brother Kun, Ah Jie and the others are professionals. You must follow their command."
Liang Kun waved his hand, "I value my life more than you do."
"Alright, let's go to the hospital."
So, everyone parted ways and got into their cars. Lin Feng's phone kept ringing non-stop, all calls from various Triad Leaders he had saved before.
The calls all conveyed the same message: congratulating Liang Kun on becoming Hung Hing's third Dragon Head, and also discreetly inquiring about the details of the attacks on Camel and Chiang Tin-Sung... Lin Feng talked until his throat was dry. Just as he finished the calls and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he received another call. This call was from Ah Bun of Tung Sing.
