Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 638, Section 228: The Uninvited Guest Who Suddenly Appears

"Thank you so much, Lao Ding!"

Fire Dog needs a chance to stand out. He spends all his time by the side of the big boss and earns a lot of money, but he doesn't get a chance to get ahead. Even the brothers from other branches of the gang rarely hear about him.

If you're going to be a gangster, you're not tough at all. You might as well find an honest job!
This idiot is hopeless!

When Chi Mengli saw Huo Gou's excited expression, she knew that Huo Gou was beyond saving; he was brainwashed by idiots!

"The top scholar wants to come over and ask me for a way to make money. Fine! Let the top scholar collect this sum. If he can handle it, then let him come see me."

"If it works out, then give him the path to the hookah business. If it doesn't, then it's just bad luck for him, that he's destined to be unlucky. Anyone who gets close to this kind of unlucky, down-on-his-luck guy will be doomed!"

After soaking for a while, Chi Mengli stepped out of the pool, wrapped a towel around her neck, and went into the sauna. She poured a ladle of cold water onto the scalding hot stones, and the cold water immediately evaporated, forming steam.

After splashing water, Chi Mengli sat on a pine chair, letting the moisture in her body evaporate.

"Brother Sheng, someone's here!"

Less than ten minutes after I sat down, before my body had even fully warmed up, Spinach Dong came over and knocked on the door, his expression stiff.

Chi Mengli removed the towel from her face and looked at Bo Caidong through the steam. She also noticed something was wrong and said, "I understand!"

Spinach closed the door and went out.

Standing up, Chi Mengli wiped the window and looked out at the bathroom. She saw several men in suits standing in the bathroom. She pulled off the towels covering her lower body, put on the bathrobes hanging in the sauna, and walked out of the sauna.

"Which star did I choose? I really didn't check the almanac before going out today. I clashed with Tai Sui, and I didn't expect a whole bunch of plague gods to come knocking on my door."

"I wonder which path you all are on. Could you also draw a line so that I, your brother, can understand?"

Chi Mengli pulled over a chair, sat down, and looked at the several brutes lying in front of her.

"According to seniority, you should call me Uncle Jin. I am a generation above your boss Robin."

Biao Jin sat in a chair, crossed his legs, and looked at the handsome young man in a bathrobe as he introduced himself.

"Waterway King, a demolition master on par with Eight-Faced Buddha, a master among masters!"

"Calling you Uncle Jin is fine! I'm the junior, after all. But Uncle Jin, your sudden appearance in the bathroom and seeing all of us brothers naked, isn't that a bit unethical?"

Chi Mengli waved his hand, telling Bo Cai Dong to bring him his cigarette case. He put a cigarette in his mouth, lit it with a lighter, and then looked at Biao Jin, wanting to see what kind of nonsense he was spouting!

"We're all grown men, look at each other, it's not a big problem!"

"Actually, I'd also like to follow the rules of the underworld, find a middleman, set out a table of delicious food, and invite you, Ah Sheng, to sit down and have a good chat!"

“But I have a special identity. Hong Kong cops, the International Drug Enforcement Administration, and Interpol all want me dead. For my own safety, I have to keep a low profile.”

Biao Jin smiled, indicating that he had no choice, and continued, "I was in the hospital when you killed Lei Mu, but the hospital is a big place, and given the special circumstances, it would have been too awkward for us to meet!"

"Among the recent batch of celebrities in the water room, you are the one who pleases the boss the most."

“My incense sticks were placed in the incense burner in the water room. Now the water room wants to clean up my mess, but they won’t let me live. So I can only ask a brother who can speak up for me in front of the boss to put in a good word for me.”

Upon hearing Biao Jin say this, Chi Mengli suddenly recalled everything that had happened before the Spring Banquet. That highly respected senior figure in the martial arts world was someone Biao Jin had invited to sit down for tea and discuss matters.

Shenxian Jin's disagreement with Biao Jin leaving is certainly reasonable. Biao Jin has always made his living from the waterworks, and if he wants to switch to another organization, the waterworks will have to give him an explanation. If a Red Stick switches organizations, the organization might only lose some territory, but if it's a complete overhaul, everyone on the line has to leave. To be on the safe side, everyone—factories, warehouses, foot soldiers, and escorts—must leave; not a single one can be left behind.

Even the secret passageways connecting Bangkok and Phnom Penh cargo terminals for receiving goods need to be adjusted.

The water room is meant to be cleansed, not to surrender. If it were to move, even if it didn't cause serious damage, it would still result in losses. No one would agree to that!

"I'm insignificant and a nobody, I can't handle this. Uncle Gui is still alive, you should go and beg Uncle Gui for help!"

Chi Mengli refused without even thinking. He didn't care about the short dog in Biao Jin's hands. This was Yau Ma Tei. If the dog was touched, Biao Jin would be finished too.

“Damn, Ah Sheng, you’re the patrolman. If you can’t even speak up, then nobody else can either.”

“Ah Sheng, we’re all in this for the money. Go tell Lao Ding that I’ve agreed. Just do as Brother Jin says. I’ll do whatever he says!”

After finishing speaking, Biao Jin still had a smile on his face. He picked up a bottle of chilled Coca-Cola and, after getting Chi Mengli's permission, had his henchman open it.

"Uncle Jin, what kind of trick are you playing? You're doing me a favor for nothing. If there's nothing fishy going on here, I definitely won't believe it!"

"You'd better not tell me you're my long-lost father. It's best not to mention this kind of old-fashioned TVB family drama plot. Although I'm a tough guy and not very bright, I'm not that crazy!"

The asking price for the Divine Brocade will definitely be astronomical, because the cost is high. The five million US dollars that are in the hands of the guerrillas will definitely not be recovered, and the blame will fall on the bidder.

Biao Jin agreed, which was essentially cutting flesh from his own body to heal his wounds, but he had no relationship with Biao Jin, it was their first meeting, and the atmosphere at the meeting was not harmonious, so there was no reason for him to give him such a big gift.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

Chi Mengli looked at Biao Jin with a cold smile. He would never help pass on a message without a reliable reason.

“My men said there’s something new in Hong Kong called Fire Phoenix, which is top-quality pork.”

"The 21st century will be the world of chemistry!"

"This is irreversible, and the reason is simple: those who become addicted to drugs get poorer and poorer. We're no longer in the era where you can find syringes everywhere under a bright light!"

"Pork is cheap to produce but causes more damage to the brain than to the body. The dead friend who played with Miss Bai only lasted 28 months from start to finish. Even waiting for the curtain to open wasn't enough, and the person was beyond saving!"

"Therefore, inexpensive pork, which is not complicated to synthesize, is the latest trump card for the future!"

Herbal plants require a lot of time to grow and cultivate, but synthetic pork doesn't require that much trouble.

Biao Jin knew that pursuing Miss Bai was no longer a viable option, so he decided to switch to pork, a much more promising blue ocean market.

"My brothers say that the Fire Phoenix suit first became popular in Yau Ma Tei. Although Yau Ma Tei isn't yet a one-size-fits-all place, Ah Sheng, you're powerful enough to control everything!"

"The professor and Miss Song were killed by the cops, and Blue Blood disappeared directly from the market. Fire Phoenix has a lower purity than Blue Blood, but my chef said that the two recipes are similar."

"Since the Phoenix Fire started in Yau Ma Tei, Ah Sheng, you must know the inside story!"

"Help me open up a skyline, and you'll definitely get a lot of benefits!"

Biao Jin didn't hide anything and directly stated his thoughts and purpose.
