He gasped for breath, clutching the seemingly light yet incredibly heavy check tightly in his hand, feeling immensely fortunate.
However, his men didn't see it that way.
There were so many people watching just now!
As a result, their own leader surrendered without a fight and even said so many humiliating things, begging for mercy.
Even the underlings felt ashamed. If word got out, how could they ever face the underworld again?
When you're out in the game, what's the most important thing? Loyalty, of course!
And what's the second most important thing? That would definitely be showing off and making a grand entrance, wouldn't it?
Why would you join the underworld or become a gangster if you weren't after prestige?
They walk with a swagger, a cigarette dangling from their lips, Guan Yu tattooed on their bodies, a green dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right, loyalty in their hearts, for brothers, they'll grab their knives and fight their way from Mong Kok to Kowloon, feared by all, occupying territory, raiding venues, chasing girls, cursing the cops—that's what they're supposed to do!
Instead of kneeling before the rich and begging for mercy like a dog.
It has to be said that what just happened completely destroyed the imposing image that Sang Biao had in the hearts of his underlings.
A young henchman sitting in the back row, with a shaved head and a scorpion tattooed on his neck, was quite indignant.
He licked his chapped lips, and finally couldn't help but complain, his neck stiff, "Brother Biao! We...were we too cowardly just now?"
Even if... Xiao Linsheng has a great reputation! But it's only right and proper for us to lend money and collect it! The rules of the underworld are: borrow money and pay it back, principal and interest! Two million turned into three and a half million, that was all in black and white, it was all written down!
Why... why does he just say he doesn't want it anymore? 1.5 million! That's no small sum! Enough for us brothers to live happily for ages! Even if Xiao Linsheng is rich, his money is in the hundreds of millions, he doesn't need our 1.5 million! Aren't we... aren't we losing out big time like this?"
He became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice grew louder.
He even regretted standing there motionless. If he had rushed up and taught that little Lin Tianwang a lesson when Boss Sang Biao was kneeling and begging for mercy, he might have instantly gained prestige in the underworld.
Even if the news reached the ears of the 14K leader, he would praise himself for being brave enough and reward him with the position of a hall master.
Upon hearing this, the other henchmen nearby also agreed, since they were professional loan sharks!
Where can you find someone who takes your principal so easily, without even asking for interest? It's not like you're doing charity.
That's HK$1.5 million in interest!
It's not their own money; it belongs to the company and the gang. If they can't get back this interest, they'll definitely get a beating from their boss when they get back!
"Smack!"
However, Sang Biao responded with a crisp, loud slap.
He slapped the thug hard across the face!
The force was so great that the thug's head snapped to the side, and he slammed into the car door. Five clear finger marks instantly appeared on his face, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
The other henchmen were all shocked.
Wow!
This is the real, imposing and domineering Brother Biao!
They all felt that Brother Biao, who had just knelt down and begged for mercy in front of Xiaolin Tianwang, was a complete stranger.
However, when Brother Biao gets ruthless now, it's towards his own people.
"Fuck your mother! Loss? Loss my ass! You should be kneeling down and kowtowing to Guan Yu right now! Be thankful! Be thankful that Xiao Lin just accepted our 'kindness'!"
Do you understand?! It's acceptance! Not rejection!
Brother Biao's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the dazed thug he had just beaten, while also sweeping his gaze over the other silent underlings. He warned sternly, "Otherwise... you, me, and everyone in the car... whether we'll see the sun rise tomorrow morning is another matter entirely! Do you understand?!"
The underlings in the carriage widened their eyes upon hearing this, followed by a deathly silence.
Only the roar of the van's engine seemed to mock their recklessness.
Green Skin Head covered his face, looking at the enraged Sang Biao in great fear, his mind still reeling from the beating.
But the fear revealed in Sang Biao's words immediately calmed him down.
The other henchmen were so frightened that they shrank back and didn't dare to breathe.
Sang Biao shook his head, then took a few deep breaths and began to "lecture" this group of ignorant and reckless young people.
"What do you think a gang is? You think you're the king of the world? A bunch of frogs in a well! You can only see a tiny patch of sky! In the eyes of someone like Xiao Linsheng, we're just a bunch of vermin!"
He doesn't even need to lift a foot; a mere breath from him and we're nothing but dust! Do you know what Xiao Linsheng manages now? Hongkong Land Group! The largest real estate developer on Hong Kong Island! How many properties? How many construction sites? How many office buildings, shopping malls, and luxury residences? Countless!
These territories, these venues, the money flowing through them every day is astronomical figures that you can't even dream of!
Yes, Kobayashi himself would never stoop to associating with shady gangs like ours; it would be beneath him!
But do you know what the real big triad bosses, like Sun Kee, Wo Kee, and 14K, do for a living? How do they feed their thousands of subordinates?
He relied on the dregs that leaked from between the fingers of those managers and supervisors under Kobayashi! They were dregs!
Take our 14K, for example! Our leader, pretty impressive, right? We're always surrounded by followers, and a stomp of our foot can shake the whole neighborhood! But do you know what? He doesn't even have the right to see Xiao Lin Sheng!
