Chapter 17 Winning Hearts and Minds



Just as Shen Dong was having a heart-to-heart talk with Zhou Gong, Guo Hua learned that his heroin factory had been destroyed and immediately led his men there.

Looking at the factory that had been burned to the ground, Guohua swayed and almost fainted.

"Who? Who did this?"

Guohua's eyes were practically spitting fire.

This factory is the foundation upon which Guohua relies for its survival.

The most important reason why he was able to maintain a superior position over the other four triad leaders was that he could produce heroin and maximize profits.

Others, including the Ni family, have to rely on cooperation with overseas yakuza.

Seeing that none of his subordinates uttered a sound, Guohua became even more furious.

"What the hell are you all standing there for? Go investigate right now!"

"Yes, boss."

Guohua vented for a while longer before calming down and thinking through all the people who might know about his factory.

Mad dog?

Could it be that the mad dog told Shen Dong about my factory before he died?

Guohua thought about it more and more and it seemed very likely, so he said to his capable subordinate, Fox, "Go and find out where Shen Dong was last night?"

The fox nodded and said, "I'll go right away."

Guohua gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Dong, if I really find out that you did this, I will tear you apart and make sure you never get reincarnated."

......

At 10 o'clock sharp, Shen Dong arrived at his bar carrying a black suitcase.

Ahua came up to him, pointed to the man sitting in the chair, and said, "Brother Dong, this man has been waiting for you."

Shen Dong looked over and saw Li Jie, whom he had just recruited yesterday.

Li Jie saw him too, immediately stood up, and said, "Brother Dong, I'm here."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Ah Jie, sit down for a while, I'm going to a meeting. What would you like to drink? Just ask the waiter to bring it to you."

Li Jie said, "Okay."

Upon entering the large private room of the bar, everyone except the six injured men was already there.

"Hello, Brother Dong." Everyone stood up and greeted Chen Dong.

Shen Dong waved his hand and said, "We're all brothers, no need for this. Sit down."

Even so, everyone waited until Shen Dong sat down before they sat down themselves.

Opening the box, Chen Dong said, "I won't waste any more words."

"Last night's operation was very dangerous, but fortunately we completed the mission and even captured a safe."

"I'm not the kind of person who takes all the benefits for myself. I won't let everyone do the work and then not give them any of the rewards."

"There is a total of 7.6 million here, 300,000 per person."

“Ah Sheng, Ah Yi, Fei Ji, and Xiao En performed exceptionally well; each of them will receive an extra 100,000.”

"Each of the six injured brothers will receive an extra 40,000 yuan in nutrition expenses."

"We still have 30,000 left. Let's find a hotel for lunch today and have a good meal together."

"Does everyone have any objections?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard Shen Dong's words.

In this era, the salary of an average white-collar worker is only two or three thousand yuan.

Even if they didn't eat or drink, it would take them ten years to save up 300,000 yuan.

Shen Dong is now giving them 300,000 yuan directly, which they simply can't believe their ears.

Jimmy swallowed hard and said, "Brother Dong, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Shen Dong laughed and said, "I'm not that stupid. The reason I have so much money is because this time I've made a great profit. I'm afraid there won't be such a good thing again. Ahua, distribute the money and then find someone to book a hotel."

Ahua nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Dong."

As soon as Shen Dong stepped out of the private room, he heard a series of ghostly wails coming from inside.

"Three hundred thousand."

"I'm rich now."

"I'm going to eat abalone and lobster for lunch today."

"Brother Huai is very generous."

......

Shen Dong smiled slightly.

Shen Dong felt that spending 300,000 yuan to win people's hearts was worthwhile.

"Is everything settled?" Shen Dong asked, sitting down opposite Li Jie.

"yes."

"Without you as a stand-in, Longwei will probably be in a lot of trouble."

"His kung fu is good, but he's been a bit lax. He'll be back in practice after another half month."

"Ah Jie, you're a former bodyguard, so you can be my bodyguard."

"no problem."

"By the way, how are things going with your veteran comrades?"

“I contacted my best friend in the army, Chen Hui. He used to be my deputy, and now he’s retired and runs a small business. He told me that most of his comrades are not doing well. If there is a resettlement allowance of HK$20,000, I believe many people would be willing to risk their lives for you.”

"Have you told him about the dangers of following me?"

“If he tells others, he will tell them too.”

"I need to confirm the names and number of people immediately, as I need to process their long-term residence permits on Hong Kong Island."

"We'll have news tomorrow afternoon."

Shen Dong nodded in satisfaction and said, "I like the efficiency and cleanliness of you soldiers. Later, come with me to a hotel for dinner, and I'll introduce you to everyone."

Li Jie said, "Okay."

At noon, Shen Dong treated everyone to a meal at the best hotel in Saigon, which cost more than 20,000 yuan.

Shen Dong didn't forget the six patients in the hospital; he had Ahua order abalone and bird's nest to be delivered to them.

Seeing Shen Dong's generosity and magnanimity, everyone became even more loyal to him.

During the meal, Tian Yangsheng said somewhat discontentedly, "Brother Dong, why did you replace me? Was it because I didn't do a good enough job?"

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Asheng, what are you thinking about?"
