Hong Kong variety show: I can boost loyalty, the most generous boss.

Chapter 277, Section 276: That's shameless! They're taking advantage of any easy prey they find!
Guo Jinfeng, true to her role as the eldest sister-in-law, quickly regained her composure and said to Ah Xun:

"Brother Hao is in trouble. He's been kidnapped, and they're demanding a ransom of 12 billion!"

What the heck? Hao Ge has been kidnapped? Really?
Ah Xun and Xiao Ma looked like they'd seen a ghost. They were seasoned kidnappers themselves, and Zhang Shih-hao was their leader. Now they'd been kidnapped by someone else?

This, this, this.
"Ah Xun, Xiao Ma, what do you think we should do about this?"

"We can't call the police, sigh."

Guo Jinfeng immediately ruled out the option of calling the police. The Hong Kong police were already investigating them, and if the cops found out that Zhang Shih-hao had also been kidnapped, they would laugh their heads off.

Moreover, if the police get involved and find any evidence, the entire Zhang Shih-hao gang will be finished.

Ah Xun calmed down, took out a cigarette and lit it, thinking about a solution to the problem.

"Sister-in-law, we definitely can't call the police. If we don't pay the ransom on time, they'll definitely kill the hostage!"

"After all, the person who dared to kidnap Zhang Shih-hao must be a ruthless killer."

"Sister-in-law, why don't you pay up to save your life?"

Ah Xun and Zhang Shih-hao grew up together and had a very deep bond. He was also afraid that Guo Jinfeng would not save Brother Hao for money, but instead run away with the money.

Upon hearing this, Guo Jinfeng immediately stated his position and said to Ah Xun:

"Of course I'm willing to pay to save Brother Hao, but I only have one billion at my disposal, which is not enough to cover the ransom."

"Ah Xun, Xiao Ma, you're both Hao Ge's good brothers. How about you each lend me 100 million, just like your wife borrowed it from you?"

Guo Jinfeng looked at Ah Xun and Xiao Ma, her gaze intense, and asked.

Ah Xun didn't hesitate and said directly to Guo Jinfeng:
“Sister-in-law, without Brother Hao, I wouldn’t be so rich today. I’m going home right now to get 100 million yuan to raise the ransom.”

Ah Xun and Xiao Ma only received 150 million, with most of the remaining ransom going to Yang Jiguang.

Guo Jinfeng looked at Xiao Ma again, but Xiao Ma avoided her gaze and said to Guo Jinfeng;
"Sister-in-law, I bought a villa with the money, and I'm getting married to my girlfriend soon."

Xiao Ma clearly didn't want to hand over the money, which infuriated Ah Xun. He grabbed Xiao Ma by the neck and said fiercely:
"Little Ma, what the hell are you spouting?"

"Alright, Ah Xun, Xiao Ma is having his own difficulties. Let me think of another way."

Guo Jinfeng knew that Xiao Ma was unwilling to hand over the money, which was understandable.

If he sells his house and adds Ah Xun's 100 million, he can barely scrape together 1.2 billion.

Ah Xun angrily released Xiao Ma, feeling extremely displeased with Xiao Ma's lack of loyalty.

Guo Jinfeng said to Ah Xun:

"Ah Xun, investigate in the underworld to find out which group did this. It would be best to resolve this peacefully!"

Guo Jinfeng didn't want to pay the money either, but with Zhang Shihao in the other party's hands, her group was like lambs to the slaughter.

They wanted to fight the other side, but couldn't find anyone, and were completely at a loss!

Ah Xun nodded and said to Guo Jinfeng;
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll have my men look for Brother Hao!"

Since Zhang Shih-hao became rich, he has also gathered some underlings. They can be put to use now, inquiring about information in Hong Kong, Macau and other places, and issuing rewards to find the gang that kidnapped Zhang Shih-hao.

Guo Jinfeng also started selling jewelry and houses to raise money, preparing 1.2 billion yuan, and waiting for the kidnappers' call.

The New Hutchison House in Hong Kong.

Yang Jun and Situ Haonan sat in the tea room. Situ Haonan picked up the teapot and poured Yang Jun a cup of tea.

“Mr. Yang, recently Hung Hing has also started running an underground lottery, and they’ve also started doing telephone betting like we do. They’re even trying to grab a share of the betting odds on boxing matches!”

"Damn it, I want to wipe them out!"

Yang Jun picked up his teacup, blew on the tea, and took a sip.

"Telephone betting has no intellectual property rights, so anyone can get involved. Which branch of Hung Hing is it?"

Situ Haonan was furious. He had just joined Wo Luen Shing and gotten the boxing matches on track when someone came along to reap the benefits.

"Chan Yiu-hing of Hung Hing, the newly appointed Tiger of Wan Chai."

"This kid's gotten really arrogant now. He doesn't take anyone seriously. Last month, he got into a fight with the Number Gang and beat the Black Arhat of the Number Gang into submission."

"He spread rumors in the underworld that he would beat up the Number Gang and kick the Water House Society, and now a lot of short mules are following him."

Chen Yaoqing is arrogant enough, but he didn't dare to provoke Wo Luen Shing. However, he dared to provoke the Numbers Gang and the Water House Gang, which is quite brave of him.

Szeto Ho-nam spoke of Chan Yiu-ching with great disdain, feeling that Chan Yiu-ching was unworthy of being called the Tiger of Wan Chai.

"Damn it, what kind of name is 'Wan Chai Tiger'? More like a sick cat!"

Because Szeto Ho-nam joined Wo Luen Shing relatively late, he was not included among the Five Tigers of Wo Luen Shing and could only be ranked among the Ten Outstanding, which made him very dissatisfied with the Tigers of Wan Chai.

Yang Jun put down his teacup, a faint smile playing on his lips.

"Situ, the bigger the tree, the more the wind blows! The more famous a gangster is, the faster he often dies!"

"You want to show off your horse to Chen Yaoqing?"

Yang Jun shook his head and said to Situ Haonan:
"Fighting and killing are not a long-term solution; we need to use our brains more!"

"Situ, the other side is able to offer betting odds on the boxing match because they copied your odds, right?"

Situ Haonan is the organizer of the boxing match. He knows the fighters' abilities very well, and the odds he offers are guaranteed to make him a winner.

Chen Yaoqing wants to profit from the peripheral business of boxing matches, so he must be copying Situ Haonan's homework and copying the odds and betting lines.

Situ Haonan wasn't stupid; he immediately realized the crux of the matter and said to Yang Jun:

"You mean, they threw the fight, changed the odds at the last minute, and tricked Chen Yaoqing?"

Yang Jun smiled and nodded, then said to Situ Haonan:
"However, you must find their informant for this plan to work."

The fact that Hung Hing's Chan Yiu-ching was able to know the odds so quickly means he must have planted an undercover agent next to Szeto Ho-nam. They need to find the traitor to trick Chan Yiu-ching.

As for how to find traitors, that's Situ Haonan's business. He has to teach me everything step by step. What use are you to me?
"I understand, Mr. Yang."

Situ Haonan greatly admired Yang Jun's wisdom and resourcefulness. Since Situ Haonan was the organizer of the boxing match, he could completely control the game.

If you give him the wrong information and then have someone place bets on Chen Yaoqing's betting platform, he'll lose everything.

"Without He Yong's help, you've been too busy lately, haven't you?"

"Big Head, come here~"

Big Head stepped out from behind and nodded respectfully to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun pointed at Big Head and said:

"This is Da Tou, just released from prison. His skills are no worse than He Yong's!"

"Big Head, from now on you'll be with Situ Haonan~"

Situ Haonan looked at Da Tou's physique; he had a well-proportioned body, a wide waist, and a thick, short neck.

He could tell at a glance that Big Head was extraordinary, and nodded, saying:
"He definitely has boxing potential. Go back and train a bit, then we'll see how it goes!"

"Mr. Yang, thank you so much!"

Yang Jun kicked He Yong out of the gang and gave Situ Haonan a big kickback, making Situ Haonan feel valued and pay more attention to Yang Jun.

As the underling, Big Head had no choice!
A bay in Tuen Mun, Hong Kong.

Guo Jinfeng drove a minivan here, got out and stood on the road, and saw that the surrounding area was desolate.

"I've arrived at Longgutan, where are you?"

A hoarse voice came from the mobile phone, saying to Guo Jinfeng:

"Stop the car, you can leave now!"

Guo Jinfeng was taken aback upon hearing this, and said with concern:
"Where's my husband? I won't give him any money unless I see Brother Hao!" Tony chuckled maliciously and said to Guo Jinfeng.
"You have no choice. Take your men and get out of here!"

"Your men's tracking skills are terrible. Go back and learn from them!"

Guo Jinfeng's expression changed drastically. She knew that the other party was nearby and had been monitoring her.

Ah Xun and the others behind her were also discovered, so Guo Jinfeng had no choice but to leave the van and walk along the highway towards the city.

Ah Xun drove the car over and asked Guo Jinfeng:

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

"They've spotted us. We need to leave immediately!"

Ah Xun and his group originally planned to take advantage of the other side's appearance to collect the ransom, seize several hostages, and then exchange hostages with the other side to bring Zhang Shih-hao back.

In this way, you won't have to hand over the money you've worked so hard to earn!
"Damn, these people are too cunning!"

Ah Xun slammed his hand on the steering wheel, and Wu Haoyu behind him quickly said:
"What do we do now, Xun-ge?"

Normally, Zhang Shih-hao is the one who comes up with the ideas for what to do in their team. The rest of them are only responsible for using force and don't need to use their brains.

"Should we fight them?"

Suddenly, a red dot was aimed at Wu Haoyu's forehead, and Ah Xun shouted in alarm:

"Damn, it's a red dot sight. They have heavy firepower. Let's go!"

Ah Xun stepped on the gas and drove away from Tuen Mun with Guo Jinfeng. They didn't even see a shadow of the enemy, but the other side was aiming at them with red dots. What was the point of fighting?

Now, all we can do is beg them to keep their word and release Zhang Shih-hao.

On the hillside, Tony watched Ah Xun and the others drive away and sneered.

"Ah Hu, go drive the car back and check it with this!"

Tony took out a long pole and taught Ah Hu how to use it. Although Ah Hu was a bit slow, he was obedient.

"What the hell is this?"

"High-tech, tracking devices, the boss bought them from the United States, there are only a handful in the whole of Hong Kong."

Ah Hu seemed to understand, but after having his two henchmen check the van with equipment, he drove it to a secret base.

After Tony inspected the ransom in the van, he found nothing unusual. They were all old bills with non-consecutive serial numbers, making them easy to sell!
So Tony dialed Yang Jun's satellite TV and said to Yang Jun:
"Boss, we've got the ransom. What about Zhang Shih-hao?"

Yang Jun said with a smile:

"Of course we should let him go, he's our ATM!"

Upon hearing the word "ATM," Tony laughed and said:

"Haha, you're right! We can't let anything happen to Zhang Shih-hao. Let him do it a few more times, and we'll reap another harvest!"

This is treating Zhang Shih-hao like a leek, waiting for him to make money before reaping a hefty harvest.

The way to get rich is to seize a fat sheep and fleece it relentlessly.
It's a bit shameless, but it's righteous!

Zhang Shih-hao's wealth was ill-gotten, so it should be confiscated. Rather than letting the foreigners arrest Zhang Shih-hao and confiscate his assets, it's better for Yang Jun to take the lead and reap the benefits first.

“Tony, you can each get one hundred million Hong Kong dollars from this deal, and the rest can go to Jimmy.”

Zhang Shih-hao's money is not clean; it must be washed clean by Zhan-mi before it can be used. One must be careful in doing things.

Tony's eyes lit up. One hundred million! This was the biggest bonus ever.

Damn, Tony can get at least 50 million, he'll be rich overnight!

Tony was naturally satisfied. Working under Yang Jun was risk-free and he made a lot of money.

"Boss, Yang Jiguang also has several hundred million in his hands. Should we take them back as well?"

Yang Jiguang? Yang Jun laughed. This idiot will be arrested by the police soon, and then he'll have to hand over all this money.

"No rush, safety first!"

Yang Jun rejected Tony's offer and hung up the phone.

A memorial service is being held at the Kowloon Funeral Home.

Although it was just a security guard who died, it attracted media attention because he was Lin Xiangdong, an employee of a Chinese security company who died in a kidnapping case.

"Dear viewers, we can see Lin Xiangdong, a Chinese security guard, who tragically died in a kidnapping incident that occurred half a month ago. He was shot three times and was only 25 years old."

"During the battle, he fought bravely with the bandits and killed two of them!"

Television reporters, carrying cameras, broadcast from outside, making this otherwise ordinary memorial service anything but ordinary because it involved a billion-dollar kidnapping case.

"Look, that's Mr. Yang's motorcade!"

"Mr. Yang is here? Attending the memorial service for an ordinary employee."

"Li Jiacheng and his son are also here, they came with Yang Jun."

Yang Jun got out of the car and saw the media gathered outside, so he asked Da Dong to help maintain order.

Yang Jun, along with Li Jiacheng and his son, entered the mourning hall to offer incense to Lin Xiangdong.

When the family members were expressing their gratitude, Yang Jun went up to Lin Xiangdong's pregnant wife and said:

"Mrs. Lin, this is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."

"Please grief!"

Yang Jun, wearing a white flower on his chest, felt uneasy upon seeing Lin Xiangdong's wife, who was five months pregnant.

Lin Xiangdong's wife was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the amount on the check: three million Hong Kong dollars.

The company has already paid out three million in compensation; why is there another three million?
“The previous compensation was from the company. This is a personal token of my appreciation. I hope you can give birth to the child and raise it, so that Adong will have an heir.”

After Yang Jun learned that Lin Xiangdong's wife was pregnant, he prepared another HK$300 million, since all the money was provided by Zhang Shihao.

In total, Yang Jun gave Lin Xiangdong's family a total of six million yuan, of which 200 million yuan went to Lin Xiangdong's parents and 400 million yuan went to Lin Xiangdong's wife.

"When your child grows up, I will give him a promising future."

Lin Xiangdong's wife was moved; this was a promise from the world's richest man, a promise to give her child a future.

The premise is that the child is born to carry on Lin Xiangdong's family line. This is one of the few things Yang Jun can do for Lin Xiangdong. They are both from Chaoshan and value this matter quite a bit.

"Mr. Yang, thank you!"

Lin Xiangdong's wife was very moved. As a big boss, it was really kind and loyal to treat his employees like this.

Li Jiacheng also took out a check for one million and gave it to Lin Xiangdong's parents before leaving with Yang Jun.

Their status is too high; if they stay here for too long, others will feel uncomfortable.

Villas in Deep Water Bay, Hong Kong.

Zhang Shih-hao finally returned, but he was badly beaten and covered in wounds.

"Brother Hao, I'll take you to the hospital. These people have gone too far, torturing you like this!"

Guo Jinfeng looked at Zhang Shihao with heartache and was about to call the hospital for treatment.

Zhang Shih-hao waved his hand and said to Guo Jin-feng:
"No need, most of them are just superficial injuries, they can be fine after resting at home for a few days."

Zhang Shih-hao used to get injured frequently when he was in a gang, so he has thick skin and recovers quickly.

"We sold our hillside villa too! Ugh!!! I can't swallow this!"

Zhang Shih-hao's heart was bleeding. All the money he had worked so hard to earn had been wiped out in an instant. Who could bear this?
