With both personnel issues resolved, Liang Kun was very pleased and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Shen Dong said, "Everyone, we have two newly appointed leaders today. Shouldn't we make them bleed a little?"
Liang Kun laughed heartily and said, "I think it's absolutely right."
Dafei said, "No problem."
Ahua said, "Dafei, why don't we split it in half?"
Dafei nodded and said, "Okay."
Thirteen Sister said, "Then let's go to the best hotel in Central for a big meal."
Everyone cheered in unison.
Only Fatty Li and Big B didn't go.
During the vote, neither of them agreed that Ahua should become the leader, as they were too ashamed to even go to dinner.
After a few rounds of drinks and several dishes, Liang Kun pulled Chen Dong aside and said, "Dong, I've taken care of what I promised you."
Shen Dong understood his meaning perfectly well and laughed, "We will hand over the territory in three days."
"That's great," said Liang Kun happily. "Ah Dong, what do you think of Big B?"
Shen Dong curled his lip and said, "What an idiot. If it weren't for Jiang Tiansheng's appreciation of his loyalty, he wouldn't be qualified to be the boss of Causeway Bay at all."
"I want to get rid of him and let Tyrannosaurus Rex run Causeway Bay," said Liang Kun bluntly.
"Brother Kun, are you drunk? How dare you say something like that?"
Shen Dong cursed inwardly.
You bastard, if you want to kill Big B, just kill him already. Why are you telling me?
I don't want to get involved in this.
Knowing he had misspoke, Liang Kun quickly said, "I was just angry and said it casually. No matter what, Big B is the boss of Hung Hing. How could I possibly kill him? I still want to be the leader for a few more years."
Shen Dong nodded and advised, "Brother Kun, you are now the boss, with a prestigious status. You can no longer speak so recklessly as before."
Liang Kun patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're right."
Shen Dong said, "By the way, Brother Kun, what's going on with Brother Yao? I don't understand why he suddenly supports you becoming the leader?"
"I gave him ten million, of course he'd help me," said Liang Kun smugly.
Shen Dong shook his head and said, "I don't think it's that simple. Brother Yao has been with Mr. Jiang for so many years and has earned his deep trust."
“I heard he owns two villas and has many other properties. How could he possibly betray Mr. Jiang for a mere ten million?”
Compared to the shrewd and calculating Jiang Tiansheng, Shen Dong still hopes that Liang Kun can stay in the leadership position for a longer period of time.
If Shen Dong wants to focus on his business, Liang Kun is definitely a good scapegoat.
He even planned to collaborate with Liang Kun to build a factory.
After his death, those shares will naturally belong to Shen Dong.
Upon hearing Shen Dong's words, Liang Kun's expression changed, and he said softly, "You mean Chen Yao is Jiang Tiansheng's mole?"
Shen Dong shrugged and said, "I'm just saying it's possible. Anyway, I think you'd better keep your guard up when it comes to this White Paper Fan."
Liang Kun nodded and said, "Ah Dong, thank you for reminding me. I really need to investigate this carefully."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Brother Kun, I have a business opportunity. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
Liang Kun was taken aback and asked, "What kind of business?"
Shen Dong said, "Pengcheng across the street is attracting investment, and I'm thinking of opening a large garment factory and an instant noodle factory there."
Knowing that Shen Dong's garment factory was making a lot of money, Liang Kun immediately became interested and asked, "Is there any potential?"
Shen Dong smiled and said, "How many people are there in the north? More than a billion. Although it's relatively poor, as long as we operate on a low-profit, high-volume basis, making two or three hundred million a year shouldn't be a problem. My only problem is the lack of start-up capital; otherwise, I wouldn't have sought your cooperation."
Liang Kun nodded and said, "What do you suggest we do?"
Shen Dong said, "I've calculated it. It will cost about 200 million to build the two factories. You contribute 100 million, I contribute 100 million, and we'll each take 50%."
"One hundred million?"
"Are you crazy?" Liang Kun exclaimed.
Shen Dong laughed and said, "Brother Kun, you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. If you want to make big money, you have to be willing to gamble. I will mortgage all my assets to the bank."
"If you are willing to cooperate, I will run both factories together."
"If you are not willing to cooperate, I will only run a garment factory for the time being."
"You can go back and think about it carefully."
After a long silence, Liang Kun asked, "Can you guarantee you'll make money?"
Shen Dong said, "There is no business in the world that guarantees a profit. The only thing I can guarantee is that I won't lose money. If you lose money, I will make up for whatever amount you lose."
Liang Kun swung his arm hard and said, "Drink it."
Shen Dong smiled broadly and said, "Brother Kun, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Liang Kun shook hands with him and said, "It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
After a satisfying meal, Shen Dong returned home and discovered that Li Xinxin's mother and younger brother had come over.
"Auntie, welcome to my home."
Shen Dong quickly stepped forward to greet him.
Regardless of anything else, Li's mother is Li Xinxin's mother, and Shen Dong must respect her.
Otherwise, Lin Xinxin would lose face.
Mrs. Li said, "Mr. Shen, we've come to give you money."
Shen Dong was taken aback and looked at Li Xinxin.
Li Xinxin said, "My mother has already sold the house to pay back the gambling debts you paid for my brother."
Shen Dong was speechless and said, "Auntie, Xin Xin is my future wife. Aren't you being too formal?"
Mrs. Li placed the money on the table and said, "Mr. Shen, we are just an ordinary family, and we are not a good match for you. I beg you, please let Xin Xin come back with me."
Li Xinxin said helplessly, "Mom, here we go again. I'm with Dong Ge because I really like him, not for money."
Mrs. Li said angrily, "I'm doing this for your own good. Among those involved in gangs, whether they are powerful leaders or ordinary thugs, how many of them end up well?"
Li Hong nudged her, reminding her, "Mom, don't talk nonsense."
Shen Dong laughed and said, "Auntie, I understand your concerns. In your eyes, I'm just a gangster who'll be hacked to death in the street sooner or later. If Xin Xin follows me, she might get implicated, right?"
After a moment of silence, Li's mother nodded and said, "Yes."
Shen Dong sighed, "The hearts of parents are truly pitiful. I cannot make any guarantees regarding your concerns, because no one can predict the future."
"The only thing I can guarantee you is that I will do everything in my power to ensure that Xin Xin lives a happy life while I am still alive."
“Last month, Xin Xin set up a private charitable foundation, and I will put one million Hong Kong dollars into it every month.”
"The reason I did this, besides the fact that it's something Xin Xin enjoys doing, is also to give her a protective charm."
"The bigger her charitable work becomes, the less anyone in the underworld or legitimate society dares to touch her."
“Even if I die, Xin Xin will receive full protection from the police.”
"So you don't need to worry about her safety."
