Gan Tang emerged from a side hall door and walked towards the most eye-catching platform. She had made ample preparations, but seeing such a display still made her feel somewhat flustered.
Fortunately, he was down there.
Fu Yuanshan stood up personally, took his daughter's hand, and introduced her to everyone.
"Many of you have probably seen her, and those who haven't have likely heard of her. My daughter officially joins the Azure Dragon Gang today."
"Young Miss, Young Miss..."
Once again, thunderous cheers erupted, this time for her.
Fu Yuanshan silenced the crowd and said to Gan Tang, "Tang'er, sit down here!"
Of the four hall masters, Mo Huaixing sat to the left of He Zhong and to the right of Fu Cheng. He deliberately sat at the back, leaving the seats in front empty.
Fu Yuanshan made such a big fuss just to establish his daughter's prestige; he should understand.
This made Gantang a little embarrassed.
Fu Yuanshan sat back on the "dragon throne," his voice authoritative and powerful: "From now on, when you see Miss in the Green Dragon Gang, it's as if you're seeing me."
Another cheer erupted, making He Zhong's face turn pale and then red. Fu Shaojie, sitting on the fourth floor, also had a dark expression. Seeing that there were no seats left, his eyes were filled with anger.
The cheers subsided, and the people on the third and fourth floors rose one by one to introduce themselves to the young lady. Ali had given her general information about these people on the third floor; they were mostly foreign citizens. However, their specific duties were classified and not mentioned in the information. But they were likely all highly skilled individuals.
Dr. Mu Zi enjoys high international prestige and has received numerous awards. But no one knows how many people have been harmed by his research findings.
After they introduced themselves, all the members of the Green Dragon Gang, both inside and outside the hall, knelt down to give the young lady the highest-level induction ceremony.
The thumping sound was unpleasant to hear.
Can she say she doesn't like it?
Fortunately, it didn't last long.
Fu Yuanshan waved his hand, signaling all the Qinglong Gang members to leave the hall. He had something to say, and they had no right to listen.
"I have gathered everyone here today to announce something very important. Pang Shanhu has betrayed us and has repeatedly stabbed my Green Dragon Gang in the back. For the sake of peace in the underworld, I have let him go many times, but I did not expect him to become even more ruthless. If I do not take action now, I fear that the name of my Green Dragon Gang will become a joke."
Pang Shanhu is Pang Lou's nickname in the underworld. He got this nickname because most of his influence was in mountainous areas.
The crowd began listing the crimes of the Ponzi scheme, one after another, to prove Mr. Fu's wisdom. Only He Zhong's face trembled slightly.
"What does Big Brother want to do?" he asked.
Fu Yuanshan said fiercely, "Within three months, I will make sure that the name Pang Shanhu is no longer heard in the underworld."
That means annihilation.
He Zhong gasped and continued, "Brother, if we make such a big fuss now, we might attract attention."
“Therefore, we must act swiftly and decisively.” Fu Yuanshan said without the slightest hesitation.
If he hadn't fallen seriously ill and happened to find his daughter, he would have almost forgotten why he came back in the first place to create the Green Dragon Gang.
Fu Yuanshan continued, "I invited you all here today to hear what good ideas you have."
He Zhong seized the opportunity and offered a plan: "The safest and least risky way for us is to support someone within the Ponzi scheme and replace him."
A laugh rang out. Gan Tang looked at He Zhong and questioned, "The person Fourth Uncle wants to support, wouldn't it be the one who harmed me back then?"
"My dear niece, how can you say such things!" He Zhongfa exclaimed anxiously.
At this moment, Gan Tang didn't intend to arouse Lu Zhengqian's suspicion, and said with a smile, "It can't be that Pang Lou did all the bad things. We're not familiar with the Pang family, so who knows who did it for him? If it just so happens that he's supporting the person who harmed me back then, wouldn't they laugh at us? Can Fourth Uncle guarantee that it wasn't him?"
"I certainly can't guarantee that. To guarantee it would be to admit to collusion," He Zhong said, feeling humiliated, but he still stubbornly retorted, "A thorough investigation can still uncover it!"
"Those who can be found to get things done are probably the ones who can't be found to offer advice, right?" Gan Tang retorted without backing down.
Lu Zhengqian stopped the two from arguing and stated directly: "The rules of the underworld need to be re-established. What I want is not just Pang Lou, but the destruction of the entire Pang family."
Only in this way can it have a deterrent effect.
Fu Cheng said, "We can cut off their supply of goods first, then their funds. Once they are in internal strife, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop. But the Pang family has deep roots, and we are afraid that we cannot shake their foundation in a short period of time."
As Fu Cheng began speaking, everyone started offering suggestions and ideas. However, Fu Yuanshan was not very satisfied with any of them.
At this moment, Mo Huaixing stood up: "Mr. Fu, we can stay behind the scenes and let the police take action."
The crowd had been whispering amongst themselves, but after these words were spoken, the meeting hall fell completely silent.
For them, the thing they fear most is the police.
"What's wrong with you!" Fu Shaojie was the first to speak out, and the others began to protest in hushed tones.
Fu Yuanshan stopped everyone and looked at Mo Huaixing with great interest: "You speak."
“Yes!” Mo Huaixing analyzed the advantages: “First, we can gradually test the police’s capabilities and strength by revealing evidence of Pang’s crimes. Knowing our enemy and ourselves, Pang’s death will have served its purpose. Second, it will let people in the underworld know that Mr. Fu is in charge of both the legitimate and criminal worlds.”
At first, Mo Huaixing thought that Fu Yuanshan's marriage alliance with the Chu family was to open up legitimate businesses. Later, he realized it was more than that. He also wanted to use the Chu family's prestige to control the entire underworld.
After all, even when gangsters kill each other, they all use the same set of rules. But if they touch upon the unknown rules of the legitimate world, they will feel an unknown fear.
Fear is one of the best ways to control people.
As expected, Fu Yuanshan smiled and said, "Alright, we'll do it your way. Miss will be in full charge of this matter, and you will assist her with all your might."
"yes!"
"yes!"
Gan Tang also stood up and agreed with him.
Fu Yuanshan gestured for the two to sit down, then looked at everyone and said, "During this time, whatever the young lady needs, you must cooperate fully. If anyone dares to be negligent, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
As Fu Yuanshan left the conference hall, He Zhong anxiously chased after him, urging him, "Brother, isn't this too dangerous? Entrusting it to those two newbies is risky. If things go wrong, the Lu Group, which we've worked so hard to build, will be ruined."
He didn't believe he didn't know the danger inside.
Fu Yuanshan stopped He Zhong and looked up at the vast sky.
The sky is clear and the clouds are light; it's a beautiful day!
A bloodthirsty glint appeared in his eyes as he excitedly said, "Twenty-eight years have passed. It's time to meet an old friend."
When Gan Tang followed, she witnessed this scene.
That was Lu Zhengqian in a state of heightened arousal, like a wolf spotting its prey—fierce and cruel. He wasn't thinking about how to kill the prey, but rather how to torment and manipulate it in the palm of his hand.
