Hong Kong variety show: My Boss, Thirteen Sister

"Damn it, what's Brother Ji up to? Why are all the people from Tung Sing here!" Bao Pi muttered unhappily at the arrival of Smiling Tiger.

“Yeah, how come people from Tung Sing can come in here too, since it’s our Hung Hing Society!” Da Tian Er also expressed some dissatisfaction.

"Alright, shut your mouths!" Chan Ho-nam said softly.

"Alright, ignore him, let's talk about our own things!" Jiang Lai said, and the others stopped paying attention to Smiling Tiger and the others.

"By the way, Chicken, are you settling in well since you came back?" Jiang Lai asked Chicken. Although Chicken usually stayed with Chen Haonan, he was nominally with him.

"Great, Brother Lai, I'm very happy to be with my brothers!" Chicken was very respectful to Jiang Lai.

He had long heard about everything Jiang Lai had done for Brother B and Hao Nan, and he was truly grateful to Jiang Lai from the bottom of his heart.

"The Sanlian Gang in Taiwan hasn't caused you any trouble, has it?" Jiang Lai asked again.

"No!" The pheasant shook its head, though a lingering concern remained in its heart.

"If anything happens, tell Haonan. If he can't handle it, come find me!" Jiang Lai gestured.

“Okay, Brother Lai!” Chicken nodded.

As they were talking, the auction began.

To put it bluntly, an auction is just a stage to showcase one's wealth and strength. Winning the item is a good thing, and it's also a way to demonstrate one's financial power.

However, there is one thing that has special significance, and that is the evergreen color.

The name Changhong is simply the red silk cloth that hangs on the statues in temples. Besides representing a good omen, it is more about showing off one's status and power.

"Tonight, our last item for auction is Chang Hong!" Brother Ji pointed to the red silk cloth on Guan Yu's head.

After glancing at everyone, Brother Ji shouted loudly, "The starting price for this long red ribbon is 16,800!"

Chapter 93 Bidding

"168!" Chan Ho-nam raised his hand immediately, saying he wanted to bid on the long red ribbon and give it to Jiang Lai.

"Hey, Hao Nan, Chen Hao Nan has bid 168!" Brother Ji quickly chimed in after hearing this, "Is there anyone else bidding? 168 for the first time!"

As he spoke, Brother Ji looked around the room to see if anyone would continue to bid.

"Sixteen thousand eight thousand for the second time, sixteen thousand eight thousand for the third time..." Seeing that no one was vying for it, Brother Ji was ready to finalize the deal.

"Wait a minute, I'll bid 18,888!" Smiling Tiger raised his hand to indicate that he was bidding, and at the same time nodded slightly to Jiang Lai.

When the smiling tiger made his bid, his underlings stood up and applauded in agreement.

For a time, Chan Ho-nam's limelight was overshadowed.

Chan Ho-nam's expression turned somewhat grim. He raised his hand and said again, "Twenty thousand!"

"it is good!"

"Okay!"

Chan Ho-nam's second bid elicited excited applause from the Hung Hing underlings.

"Twenty thousand, Chan Ho-nam bids twenty thousand, anyone else?" Brother Kei was a competent host. Upon hearing Chan Ho-nam's bid, he quickly signaled that no one else wanted to bid.

"I'll bid 30,000!" Smiling Tiger continued to bid, without bothering to increase the price by 10,000 each time.

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Each time the price was raised, both sides' underlings were extremely excited, as if this would give them the upper hand.

"Damn, is this guy deliberately trying to cause trouble?" Seeing the price getting higher and higher, Baopi looked at Smiling Tiger and muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Upon hearing this, Chan Ho-nam pursed his lips and said, "Fifty thousand!"

When the henchmen behind him heard Chan Ho-nam bid again, they all cheered and applauded.

There's nothing more enjoyable than having their older brother pay for the show and them watching the spectacle.

"Fifty thousand, fifty thousand! Chan Ho-nam bid fifty thousand directly, is there any more?" Brother Kei was very happy. In previous years, the auction had never reached such a high price. This year, when he presided over the auction, it broke the record.

Although a long red cloth is an auspicious symbol, in most people's eyes it is just a piece of red cloth.

Making money is not easy in this world. Who would spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy a red cloth? They would take a picture of it and think it's too much of a nuisance.

"I plan to bid on this long red ribbon tonight and give it to Mr. Jiang, so I'm determined to have it. I'll offer 80,000!" Seeing Chen Haonan continue to raise the price, Smiling Tiger directly stated his intentions while waving to Jiang Lai to show goodwill.

When Chen Haonan and the others heard what Smiling Tiger said, they were stunned and looked at Jiang Lai for a moment, not knowing whether they should continue to bid.

"Eighty thousand, that's already eighty thousand, is there anyone else?" Brother Ji was overjoyed and continued to fuel the fire, hoping to get the price even higher.

As he spoke, Brother Kei turned his head and looked at where Chan Ho-nam was.

When Jiang Lai saw Chen Haonan, Chicken, and the others looking at him, he simply shrugged to indicate that he was unaware of the situation and didn't care.

He had no idea what the smiling tiger was up to.

Chan Ho-nam was in a bit of a predicament. He had just returned to Tsz Wan Shan and had recently taken in a lot of followers, so he was short of money.

Chicken saw Chan Ho-nam's predicament and immediately raised his hand: "I'll offer 180,000!"

"180,000! 180,000! Chicken bids 180,000!" Brother Ji was also very excited after hearing Chicken's bid and shouted loudly.

At the same time, the pheasant looked at the smiling tiger provocatively: "If you're going to bid, bid higher, or I'll say I'm not giving you face!"

After hearing what the pheasant said, the smiling tiger's face darkened.

He didn't come to cause trouble on purpose; he just wanted to take a picture of the long red ribbon and give it to Jiang Lai to try and gain his favor. He didn't expect that Shanji would be so disrespectful.

"180,000 for the first time, 180,000 for the second time, 180,000 for the third time..." Seeing that Smiling Tiger was not raising the price any further, Brother Ji felt that it was about time and prepared to strike the gavel to settle the matter.

"Wait a minute, 'Chang Hong' is all about good luck. I don't think 180,000 is a good enough number. I'll bid 188,888!" Smiling Tiger suddenly interrupted Brother Ji, and instead of raising the price too much at once, he changed the concept of his bid.

As a blank slate in Tung Sing, Smiling Tiger was naturally not a reckless fool; he knew how to use his brain to solve problems.

"this........!"

When Bao Pi and the others heard what Smiling Tiger said, they looked at Shan Ji, not knowing what to say.

After all, Smiling Tiger was just saying he wanted an auspicious number, but there's only one auspicious number, and they can't possibly increase it to 800,000.

"Alright, 188,888, anyone else bidding?" Brother Ji shouted as he heard Smiling Tiger speak again.

Everyone seemed a little embarrassed and looked at Jiang Lai.

Although Jiang Lai didn't care about this so-called Changhong, it was still Hung Hing's territory after all. If he was outdone by Tung Sing, his underlings would lose face.

Therefore, Jiang Lai could only raise his hand directly: "If it's a long-lasting success, then let it last forever. I'll offer 999,999!"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"Brother Lai is so generous!"

Upon hearing Jiang Lai speak up and immediately raise the price to 990,000, the Hung Hing underlings cheered excitedly.

Even Chicken and Chan Ho-nam smiled and applauded.

The pheasant gave the smiling tiger a defiant look, as if to say, "Go ahead and continue if you dare?"

The smiling tiger's face darkened at first, but he immediately put on a smiling expression.

"Ah Lai bids, 999,999!!!" Brother Ji shouted, his voice almost hoarse, after hearing Jiang Lai's price.

Everyone couldn't help but look at the smiling tiger.

The smiling tiger completely disregarded the stares of others: "I already said, Changhong was originally a gift for Mr. Jiang. Since Mr. Jiang has made an offer..."

After saying that, Smiling Tiger shrugged to indicate that he was giving up, and still smiled as he glanced at the Hung Hing members.

The Smiling Tiger lived up to his name; with just one sentence, he extinguished the high spirits of the Hung Hing members.

Moreover, even the underlings of Tung Sing thought that Smiling Tiger was right. Their boss wasn't short of money; he just had no reason to fight for it.

"Alright, congratulations to Alai for winning the long red tonight! We wish him good luck from the beginning to the end of the year, and may he stay successful forever!!" Brother Ji stopped counting and started hammering the gavel.

"well!"

Brother Kei revived the atmosphere, and Hung Hing's underlings cheered and applauded.

"Congratulations, A-Lai!" After making the final decision, Brother Ji smiled and came to Jiang Lai's side to congratulate him.

"Sit down, Brother Ji!" Jiang Lai didn't seem to care much about taking down Chang Hong, and invited Brother Ji to sit down.

Instead of sitting down, Brother Ji walked over to Jiang Lai and said, "Ah Lai, actually, Mr. Wu came here today because he wants to talk to you about a business deal!"

"Oh?" Jiang Lai looked at Brother Ji with some confusion.

"Shall we switch tables and chat later?" Brother Ji looked at Jiang Lai, and at the same time glanced at Chicken and the others.

Jiang Laiwang stared at Brother Ji thoughtfully, then said calmly, "Okay!"

He also wanted to see what the smiling tiger was up to!

When Brother Ji heard Jiang Lai agree, he was overjoyed.

Chapter 94 The Smiling Tiger's Scheme

After the celebration ended, Brother Ji invited Jiang Lai and Smiling Tiger to a private room.

"It's like this, Ah Lai!" Brother Ji gestured for Jiang Lai to sit down, then spoke first: "Mr. Wu wants to discuss a business deal with you, and I'll be the one to make the introduction!"

"Come on, let me introduce you to each other!" Brother Ji said as he walked between the two.

Jiang Lai looked at Brother Ji with some doubt, "Brother Ji, are you very familiar with him?"

"Ah!" Brother Ji was stunned.

"I met Brother Ji by chance, and we had a very pleasant conversation!" Smiling Tiger continued Jiang's words.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Wu is a nice guy!" Brother Ji quickly chimed in when he heard Smiling Tiger speak.

"Really? Okay, then tell me about the business!" Jiang Zi lit a cigarette for himself without revealing anything.

"Mr. Wu wants to open a nightclub, and after his... well..." Brother Ji suddenly forgot the words Smiling Tiger had said.
