Abu nodded expressionlessly.

After saying that, Jiang Lai led Abu to a tea restaurant that he had been frequenting recently.

The round tables and booths were already full. This teahouse has a long history; Jiang Lai heard that it has been passed down since the Republic of China era.

The tea restaurant has a retro feel to its decor, with dragon and phoenix carvings on the pillars in the main hall, dim sum servers carrying snacks and dim sum chefs busy in the kitchen, making the originally peaceful morning exceptionally lively.

Jiang ordered two servings of shrimp dumplings, two servings of siu mai, two servings of char siu bao, and then two servings of his favorite rice noodle rolls.

Besides these, beef congee is also a must. The minced beef is cooked with rice porridge, making the flavor and texture of the porridge more substantial. In addition to breakfast, Jiang Lai also ordered two cups of Tieguanyin tea.

Since his physical condition improved, Jiang Lai found that he could eat more, and Abu was about the same, also able to eat more.

After a morning tea, Jiang Lai felt full of energy again. Sometimes, a full meal is the greatest satisfaction.

"Ah Lai, I need your help with something!" Abu put down his teacup and said to Jiang Lai.

"Hmm?" Jiang Lai looked at Abu, gesturing for him to continue.

“I want to leave Hong Kong for a while, can you do that?” Abu asked Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai thought for a moment and knew what Abu wanted to do: he wanted to take Master Ma's head to offer as a sacrifice to the female nurse.

However, Abu is now wanted by both the police and the authorities, so normal channels are definitely not an option.

"Where to?" Jiang Lai asked Abu.

“Vietnam!” Abu replied.

He was wounded while on a mission in Vietnam and was rescued by a nurse named Malena by chance. Because of the mission, he didn't have time to repay her kindness before Malena was killed.

That's why he cut off Master Ma's head, intending to take it as a sacrifice, also to repay his kindness.

Jiang Lai thought for a moment, then took out his phone and called Han Bin.

"Brother Bin!" Jiang Lai said as soon as the call connected.

"What's up, Jiang?" Jiang Lai rarely called Han Bin, so Han Bin was a little surprised to receive a call from Jiang Lai.

"I need your help. I want to send someone away from Hong Kong to Vietnam!" Jiang Lai didn't stand on ceremony with Han Bin and directly stated his purpose.

"Run away?" That was Han Bin's first thought.

"It's not exactly running away, but my identity is definitely inconvenient!" Jiang Lai said.

"When are you leaving?" Han Bin continued to ask.

"The sooner the better!" Jiang Lai replied.

"Alright, I'll arrange it!" Han Bin said directly.

Besides his establishments in Kwai Tsing, Han Bin also runs a smuggling business. Arranging for someone to leave Hong Kong shouldn't be a big problem.

Hong Kong in that era was not as strictly regulated as it would be in later times.

"Thanks, Brother Bin!" Jiang Lai said in thanks after hearing Han Bin's agreement.

"Don't be so polite, come over for a drink when you have time!" Han Bin said readily.

“No problem!” Jiang Lai said with a smile.

Jiang Lai and Han Bin exchanged pleasantries for a while, then Jiang Lai hung up the phone.

“It’s done!” Jiang Lai said to Abu.

"Thanks, Alai!" Abu said solemnly to Jiang Lai.

"Alright, don't be so serious, it's nothing, come on, let's continue drinking tea!" Jiang Lai waved his hand and said to Abu.

Abu nodded and smiled when he heard this.

After the two finished their morning tea, Abu followed Jiang to his place.

"Brother Lai!"

"Brother Lai!"

As Jiang Lai approached, his men greeted him, and Jiang Lai responded to each of them.

Han Bin was very efficient. Not long after, he called Jiang Lai. It was the number of one of his boat captains. Han Bin told Jiang Lai that everything was arranged and they could set off at any time.

Jiang thanked him and then gave the number to Abu.

"Abu, this is the boat captain's number. Be careful on the road!" Jiang Lai said to Abu.

"Thanks, Alai!" Abu said gratefully, and then turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Jiang Lai suddenly spoke up.

Abu turned around with some confusion and looked at Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai reached into the drawer, pulled out a pistol, tossed it to Abu, and said casually, "You know how to use it, right?"

In fact, the pistol was inside Jiang Lai's spatial ring. He took it out of the drawer only to cover his tracks.

“I don’t need this!” Abu didn’t reach for the pistol. He was confident in his abilities, so he said calmly.

"Take it, you might need it if anything unexpected happens!" Jiang Lai continued.

"Alright!" Seeing that Jiang Lai insisted that he take it, Abu no longer refused, took the pistol, tucked it behind his waistband, and covered it with his clothes.

"I'm leaving!" Abu nodded to Jiang Lai, picked up his briefcase, and turned to leave.

Jiang Lai nodded, signaling him to be careful.

After Abu left, Jiang Lai took out the most recent account books and looked through them. Perhaps due to the impact of the previous fight, the business income of many venues had declined slightly, but Jiang Lai was not worried. He believed that things would gradually get better.

"Boss, there's a guy named Li Hua down there looking for you. He says he made an appointment with you!" A moment later, Jiang Lai's underling, Awei, ran over and said to Jiang Lai.

Huh? They're here?

"Bring him up!" Jiang Lai said to Awei.

A short while later, Awei brought Li Hua to Jiang Lai's office!

"Awei, you can go down now. If someone comes looking for me later, just bring them up!" Jiang Lai said to Awei.

"Okay, boss!" Awei replied after hearing this.

Although Awei wasn't as quick-witted as Dongdong, he was quite honest. He never questioned Jiang Lai's words; he simply did whatever Jiang Lai asked him to do silently.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm here to report for duty!" Li Hua, dressed in a suit, bowed slightly to Jiang Lai and said respectfully.

"Okay, from now on, you don't need to be so polite, just relax!" Jiang Lai said to Li Hua.

After hearing this, Li Hua nodded to Jiang Lai.

Not long after, Awei brought up a second person, this time a woman named Wang Ying!

"Mr. Jiang!" Just like Li Hua, Wang Ying bowed slightly and greeted Jiang Lai respectfully upon seeing him.

"Okay!" Jiang Lai nodded.

"Awei!" Jiang Lai called out to Awei.

"Boss!" Awei looked at Jiang Lai with some confusion.

“You guys have worked hard lately, here’s 100,000 yuan, treat the brothers to a meal!” Jiang said, taking a stack of money from the drawer and throwing it on the desk, before speaking to Awei.

"Oh, okay, thanks, boss. So, here?" Awei asked tentatively.

"You don't need to worry about this place. There's not much of a crowd during the day. Take the brothers out to eat. You make the arrangements, and then notify them to come over tonight!" Jiang Lai said to Awei.

“Okay, boss!” Awei replied upon hearing Jiang’s instructions, then turned and left.

Chapter 29 Arrangement

"Let's go, let's go down!" Jiang Lai said to Li Hua and Wang Ying after Awei and his gang left.

The two nodded and followed behind Jiang Lai.

A lot of people came to report to Jiang Lai later, and there was definitely not enough room in the office, so Jiang Lai simply took Li Hua and Wang Ying to the lobby to wait.

After arriving downstairs, Jiang Lai found a sofa in a booth and sat down, with Wang Ying and Li Hua standing beside him.

The original staff had all left under Jiang Lai's arrangement, and with no other guests, the place seemed rather empty.

However, before long, as more and more people arrived to register, the venue became increasingly crowded.

After everyone had arrived, Jiang Lai began to take a proper look around.

Standing up, Jiang Lai walked to the front, looking at the dark mass below. Strictly speaking, these were his most loyal men, and he was extremely satisfied.

Everyone was wearing a black suit, but Jiang Lai, in a white suit, stood out among them.

The men were tall and robust, while the women were about two heads shorter than them. They were wearing suits and stood at the very front, looking dashing and spirited. Everyone stood quietly, waiting for Jiang to speak.

"Hello everyone!" Jiang Lai greeted the crowd.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang!" Everyone bowed and responded in unison.

Haha!

"Alright, no need to be so polite. I just wanted to chat with everyone and talk about the arrangements for you all!" Jiang Lai smiled and waved his hand as he spoke.

Everyone waited quietly for Jiang to continue speaking.

"I'm very happy that everyone is here!" Jiang Lai said politely first.

After saying that, Jiang Lai looked at everyone, then waved his hand, and a stack of cash appeared in front of him.

He then said, "Here is one million, ten thousand for each person, as a gift for everyone. Li Hua, Wang Ying, you two distribute this to everyone!"

“Okay, Mr. Jiang!” Li Hua and Wang Ying immediately took action upon hearing Jiang Lai’s instructions.

Because these were characters summoned by the system, Jiang Lai directly took out one million yuan in cash from his spatial ring without any attempt to conceal it. This was because these people were absolutely loyal to him, and the system was not a secret to them!

This cash was something Jiang Lai had casually collected at some of the venues he frequented before; it amounted to about three million yuan, and Jiang Lai hadn't really used it much.

Although the system assigns identities to everyone, each of them is a living, breathing human being, not a cold robot, so they still need to eat, drink, and relieve themselves, and naturally, they need to consume.

Giving each person ten thousand dollars was more than enough for Hong Kong at that time.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang!" They didn't refuse politely. They would obey all of Jiang Lai's arrangements, but after receiving the money, they still thanked Jiang Lai politely.
