Hong Kong Movies: I am Hongxing, what the hell is the intelligence king?

Chapter 384 Let's Set Off a Big Firework!
Zhou Chaoxian grinned maliciously as he dragged Minister Liang out of the car, holding onto one of his feet and starting to pull him along.

“I gave you ten million, and you told me at the time that the seat of that legislator was mine.”

“If you had told me back then that ten million wasn’t enough, then I could have found another way.”

“That’s great. I’ll give you more money, or find another way.”

"That way, I won't end up like a clown, becoming a laughingstock."

Minister Liang was dragged and bumped along the way. He wanted to explain, but with his face on the ground, he couldn't say a word.

Every time he speaks, dirt gets into his mouth. In that case, Zhou Chao won't even need to make a move; he'll be the one who dies first!

"What's the point of living this kind of life?"

"I'm telling you, it's all about face!"

"There are plenty of ways to make money in Taiwan."

“Our Songlin Gang also has traditional businesses, and we make a lot of money.”

"I'm not short of money!"

"What I lack is face."

"So many people want my friendship but can't have it. You clearly had it, yet you kicked him to the bottom of the sea."

"Do you think I, Zhou Chaoxian, am just a name without substance?"

Zhou Chaoxian was indeed strong. No matter how well Minister Liang took care of himself, and no matter how much he looked like he was in his thirties, he was actually a guy weighing 160 pounds.

Zhou Chaoxian simply dragged himself along, without expending any effort.

Minister Liang wanted to explain, but he didn't even have a chance to do so. His face was covered in bloody scratches from the small stones on the road, and he gradually felt desperate.

"I am a person who always repays kindness and avenges wrongs."

"Be my friend, Zhou Chaoxian, and I will not treat you unfairly."

“I am happy to be your enemy, Zhou Chaoxian.”

"The choice is not in my hands, but in yours."

"No one has ever taken a favor from me and then refused to do anything for me."

“You’re the first!”

Minister Liang was filled with fear.

He didn't know how Zhou Chaoxian was going to deal with him.

Because they didn't know Zhou Chaoxian's methods, they were even more terrified.

He knew he wouldn't get better.

But the unknown gnawed at him like darkness, and he was afraid.

Zhou Chaoxian suddenly paused and abruptly released Minister Liang's hand.

He pulled a handkerchief from his suit pocket, instinctively covering his mouth with it, his face full of disgust and revulsion.

Minister Liang lost control of his bladder!

He was terrified by Zhou Chaoxian.

Zhou Chaoxian quickly moved to the upwind side, and only then did he feel a little better.

He beckoned and gave the order:

"Drag this guy to the front of the jar."

The subordinates looked at each other, all unwilling.

Minister Liang is getting old, and his smell is too strong.

But the boss has given the order, so even if you don't want to, you have to do it.

Minister Liang was helped to a large jar, which was as tall as himself.

Zhou Chao said indifferently:
"You took ten million from me..."

Minister Liang finally got a chance to beg for mercy and quickly said:
"Chief Zhou, Brother Xian, I was wrong."

"Please forgive me, I shouldn't have tried to outsmart you."

“I didn’t dare spend a single cent of that ten million. I’ll return it to you right now.”

Zhou Chaoxian mocked:

"I'm not short of money!"

Minister Liang said loudly:

"I'll compensate you with another two million."

"I am the Minister of Public Affairs. If you release me, I will do whatever you ask of me from now on."

"I'll hit whoever you tell me to hit. I'm your dog."

"Please let me go."

Zhou Chaoxian snorted coldly:

"Making empty promises doesn't work for me."

"I'm sending you to fight the Bamboo Union gang, do you dare?"

"I'm sending you to fight the Four Seas Gang, do you dare?"

"I'm sending you to fight the Triads, do you dare?"

"You dare not do anything!"

Minister Liang was speechless.

“I raise a dog, feed it and clothe it, and when it sees me, it wags its tail to please me.”

You're not even as good as a dog.

"I don't want the ten million."

"I don't lack two million."

"On the contrary, I have prepared a gift of two million for you."

With a charming smile on his face, Zhou Chaoxian pointed to the jar, which was as tall as a person, and introduced it to him.

"See that? That's for you."

"Actually, we are quite similar in some ways."

"For example, it's very similar to things that carry money."

"You said you would return all the money to me and also give me two million as compensation."

"What a coincidence, I also prepared two million to buy you a gift."

“I found the best firecracker workshop in Yiwan and ordered two million worth of firecrackers.”

"You swallowed ten million without a sound, I'm very dissatisfied."

"This amount of money, even if thrown into water, would create ripples."

"But here, I didn't hear a sound at all."

"After much thought, I've decided to just consider this two million as a mere formality."

"Carry him inside!"

Without saying a word, his subordinates grabbed Minister Liang and threw him into the jar.

Minister Liang nearly fainted when he could see his surroundings clearly!
What did he see?
The jar was full of firecrackers as thick as a baby's arm, completely full.

Minister Liang tried to climb up, but how could he possibly make it up?
Zhou Chaoxian grinned maliciously, reached into a box of cigars, slowly cut off the caps, carefully roasted them, and then put them in his mouth with satisfaction.

He took a gentle puff, slowly savoring the cigar's flavor, and after exhaling, smiled as he tossed the still-lit kerosene lighter into the jar.

Minister Liang's eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted desperately:
"No!"

The lighter traced a beautiful parabola before being tossed into the jar.

This place is full of firecrackers as thick as a baby's arm.

It can be ignited anywhere.

Zhou Chaoxian quickly retreated.

They hadn't even taken two or three steps back yet.

A crackling sound rang out, like firecrackers going off.

Zhou Chaoxian did not stop and retreated at an even faster pace.

Not only him, but even his subordinates followed the same routine.

He ran less than ten meters.

Boom!

The sound of a secondary explosion rang out.

The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder, and even Zhou Chaoxian, who was upwind, could smell it.

Along with it comes a captivating scent that is hard to describe.

Zhou Chaoxian burst into laughter.

His men couldn't laugh.

Using firecrackers for execution—is that something a human being could even conceive of?

Zhou Chaoxian is terrifying!

After waiting for a while, Zhou Chaoxian came to the jar with a smile and was surprised to smell the aroma of cooked meat.

How is my gift?

"Do you like it?"

"Not saying anything? Then I'll take that as a yes."

Zhou Chaoxian was completely satisfied.

After carefully admiring his masterpiece, he nodded in satisfaction and instructed his subordinates:
“Enjoy it a little longer, then seal this jar and throw it into the sea.”

"May this guy never be reincarnated."

"You dared to steal my money!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Zhou Chaoxian was quite pleased.

His subordinates almost threw up.

What is appreciation?

They just don't appreciate it at all.

The temperature of the jar was extremely high; it practically cooked Minister Liang.

Minister Liang appeared to be perfectly healthy on the outside, but he was dead beyond any doubt.

This is because the firecrackers were placed inside the jar, which means that Minister Liang was at the epicenter of the explosion.

He wasn't killed by the explosion; he was half scared to death and the other half killed by the shockwave.

The jar is an enclosed space, which naturally allowed the explosive force to be fully released.

Minister Liang survived the explosion and died a very serious death.

The subordinates instinctively wanted to escape from Minister Liang's corpse, but they dared not disobey Zhou Chaoxian's orders. They finally managed to seal the jar and wait for it to cool down before they managed to push it into the water with great effort.

There was a loud thud.

Minister Liang sank to the bottom of the sea, and no one knows when he will see the light of day again.

His men could no longer hold back and vomited profusely on the beach.

Zhou Chaoxian's actions were no longer murder; they were clearly acts of torture.

Such methods are terrifying, let alone experiencing them firsthand.

These subordinates all knew that Zhou Chaoxian was ruthless to the enemy, but they had never seen him play such tricks before.

so horrible!

Zhou Chaoxian always managed to instill fear in people, even if it wasn't his intention.

"Alright, I'm going to visit the Sanlian Gang. You guys go back first."

The subordinate hesitated slightly:

"Boss, Song Jingang of the Four Seas Gang is here."

"The relationship between these two families seems to be quite unusual."

Zhou Chaoxian glanced at him, frowned, and said:
"Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush."

The subordinate simply stated it outright:
"Our Pine Forest Gang and the Four Seas Gang are enemies. Could this be a trap?"

Zhou Chaoxian gave him a disapproving look:
"Don't have thoughts that shouldn't be entertained."

"If the Sanlian Gang wanted to help the Sihai Gang, our gang would have been swallowed up long ago, leaving not even a trace."

His men were terrified:

"Can't you?"

Zhou Chaoxian sighed softly.
"These concerns are unfounded."

"Although you are my right and left hands, you started out in this business late and have no idea how terrifying the Triads are."

The subordinate asked in bewilderment:
Are the Triads very powerful?

Zhou Chaoxian nodded slightly:
"You guys are really ignorant." "What do you think of the Four Seas Gang's strength?"

The subordinates looked at each other, and one of them said:
"The Four Seas Gang is quite powerful, and most importantly, they are rich and have great potential."

Wars are all about money, regardless of whether they are regular armies or not.

The Sihai Gang is the wealthiest gang among all the triads in Taiwan, and its long-term potential is obvious.

Taiwan is full of gangsters; some are willing to risk their lives for a mere ten or twenty thousand.

The Songlin Gang has the upper hand now, but that doesn't mean they'll always have it.

If the Four Seas Gang gains momentum, the chances of them turning the tables are extremely high.

"It seems you are quite aware of the current situation."

"That's right, we're on a good track, but the outcome is still uncertain."

"The Four Seas Gang is indeed one of the top three gangs; its foundation is too deep."

"But do you know who the Four Seas Gang is afraid of?"

His men looked at each other, puzzled.

"Is there anyone the Four Seas Gang is afraid of?"

"Shouldn't it?"

"They're not afraid of even the Bamboo Union."

Zhou Chaoxian pointed to the houses in the distance:
"There is only one gang that the Four Seas Gang truly fears, and that is the Three Alliance Gang."

His men were terrified:

"how could be?"

"Is the Triads really that powerful?"

"I didn't feel it at all."

"Does a lightning strike have that much power?"

Zhou Chaoxian scoffed:

"What is lightning attack?"

"He's just a decrepit old man."

"The one who's really impressive is Ding Yao."

"To be precise, it's Ding Yao's man who's formidable."

"He's the truly amazing one."

"While Ding Yao is undoubtedly intelligent and resourceful, the immense power her man wields is the foundation that supports her wisdom and resourcefulness."

"Since she took over, the Sanlian Gang has become more low-key."

"Three years ago, Old Song went mad and wanted to swallow up the Sanlian Gang and become the largest gang in Taiwan."

"This angered the Triads."

"And this also allowed fellow martial artists to witness the power of the Sanlian Gang."

"For four consecutive days, four branches of the Four Seas Gang were dismantled, and all their leaders disappeared."

The subordinates looked at each other and couldn't help but ask:
"disappear?"

Zhou Chaoxian said indifferently:

"Physical elimination, I guess they all went to the ocean to feed the fish."

His subordinates fell silent in fear.

None of the high-ranking members of the four gangs escaped; the enemy's execution capabilities are terrifyingly high.

"The members of the Four Seas Gang are living in constant fear and cannot live a peaceful life."

"On the fifth night, the Four Seas Gang and the Three Alliance Gang reached a settlement on reparations."

His subordinates were quite astonished:

"The Four Seas Gang suffered such a huge loss, and they still agreed to negotiate peace with the Three Alliances?"

"Still demand compensation?"

Zhou Chaoxian asked with a smile:

"Can't figure it out?"

His men shook their heads vigorously; they really couldn't understand it.

Zhou Chaoxian said calmly:

"According to rumors, on the fifth night, Old Song was taken there."

His subordinates were greatly alarmed:

"what?"

Zhou Chaoxian sighed:
"You don't believe me, do you?"

His subordinate shook his head vigorously.

Zhou Chaoxian's words couldn't be clearer; he was clearly saying that Song Jingang had been captured by the Sanlian Gang and taken to their headquarters.

It wasn't his own choice.

How can this be?

That's the headquarters of the Four Seas Gang!
But Zhou Chaoxian would never lie.

His subordinates immediately moved the Sanlian Gang to the top of their rankings in their minds.

Such a terrifying guy, we mustn't mess with him.

"I have something else to tell you."

"Old Song's henchman, Betel Nut Boy, beat someone up at a night market last night. Unfortunately, that person was a subordinate of Ding Yao's man, Lin Feng's company."

"Old Song immediately tied up the betel nut boy and sent him over today."

“When I came here, I saw clearly that the betel nut boy had been disciplined by Old Song and thrown here.”

His subordinates were completely bewildered.

What.

Was a betel nut thrown here just now?
wrong!

One of his men suddenly realized what was happening.

Binlangzai was one of Lao Song's top lieutenants, yet he actually gave him as a gift to Lin Feng as an apology.

The credibility of Zhou Chaoxian's previous statements has greatly increased.

"Since Mr. Lin is here, I must go and pay him a visit."

"You guys go back first."

His subordinates naturally had no objections.

Zhou Chaoxian thought for a moment and then said:

"Pass on my order: the operation against the Four Seas Gang is to be suspended."

His subordinate was taken aback:
"Postpone?"

Zhou Chaoxian said calmly:

"Our struggle with the Four Seas Gang is all a misunderstanding."

"Old Song just told me frankly that we will most likely cease hostilities."

"Let's make an effort to establish a good relationship first."

His subordinates dared not say more:

"Yes!"

Zhou Chaoxian returned to Ding Yao's villa.
Lin Feng waved:
"Is the matter done?"

Old Song asked curiously:
"Mr. Zhou, what have you done?"

"How come I can hear noises here?"

Zhou Chaoxian smiled at Lin Feng and replied respectfully:

"It's done."

Only then did he answer Old Song's question.
"Minister Liang wanted to compensate me with two million, but I said no need. I added another two million to order some firecrackers."

"Just now, I put them all in a jar and gave them to Minister Liang as a gift."

Old Song still didn't understand.
"A gift for Minister Liang?"

Lin Feng became interested:

"I don't know whether you gave the jar to Minister Liang, or Minister Liang gave the jar?"

Zhou Chaoxian was immediately delighted:

“Brother Feng, we have something in common.”

"Of course I stuffed Minister Liang into the jar."

Then I heard a loud noise!

Old Song was sweating profusely.

Killing someone is just a matter of beheading them, but Zhou Chaoxian is a bit sinister.

However, if even Lin Feng could think of this kind of punishment, why didn't I?
Am I not normal?
Old Song was stunned.

Lin Feng smiled:
"Not bad, throwing in two million to make a sound is worth it!"

"Now you understand, don't you?"

Zhou Chaoxian smiled and said:

"You can't hide it from Brother Feng, that's right, I feel refreshed and very comfortable right now."

Lin Feng clapped his hands,
"So, what are your plans?"

"Should we continue fighting?"

Old Song quickly said:
"Let's not fight anymore?"

He said to Zhou Chaoxian with particular sincerity,
"Mr. Zhou, I really didn't expect to start a gang war."

"This is a completely undeserved disaster."

"How about I compensate you and we call a truce?"

Old Song really didn't want to continue fighting.

Zhou Chaoxian was simply a madman; in the end, it was his Sihai Gang that suffered the consequences.

In any case, according to the Four Seas Gang's code of conduct, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

Zhou Chaoxian smiled:

"To be honest, it was my fault. How about we call a truce right now?"

Old Song was overjoyed and extended his palm. Zhou Chaoxian gave him a high five without hesitation.

With Lin Feng as witness, the contract was finalized!
Lin Feng clapped his hands and said:
"Congratulations to you both for making a wise decision."

"If we continue fighting, regardless of who wins or loses, it will ultimately be a lose-lose situation for both sides."

"These are all major gangs that play a pivotal role in Taiwan. Once a war breaks out, it will inevitably affect the entire island."

"I can say this clearly: in the end, no one will come out on top."

"Not only did the Four Seas Gang and the Pine Forest Gang cease to exist, but even fellow martial artists were implicated."

"To be honest, this is also why I sent people to arrest Minister Liang."

"If you're being irrational, I'll help you be irrational."

Fortunately, it didn't come to that point.

Old Song and Zhou Chaoxian exchanged a glance, both feeling fortunate.

Thankfully, it didn't come to that, otherwise, they would have been in serious trouble.

Zhou Chaoxian was quite carefree:

"I was just venting my anger; I didn't think much about it."

Old Song's lips twitched as he listened.

To vent their anger, they started a fight between two major gangs?
How many people were killed or injured?
How much money was lost?
What a madman!

Lin Feng smiled:

"That does suit your personality."

Zhou Chaoxian was flattered and overwhelmed:
"Brother Feng, do you understand me?"

Lin Feng naturally replied:
"My wife and your wife are best friends."

"She often talks about you in front of Ding Yao."

Zhou Chaoxian suddenly realized.

Old Song was jealous. Why didn't my wife become best friends with Ding Yao?
But when he thought about Ding Yao's age, the idea immediately faded.

They're two generations apart, how can they have so much to say to each other?
Lin Feng suddenly asked:

"Boss Zhou, have you ever thought about moving to a different place to develop your business?"
