Chapter 451 The New Year is over, good luck to start work!

Chen Jialuo said, "That's easy to handle. With money, you can get anything done. Even if you can't do it in Hong Kong, can't you do it in other countries? As far as I know, there are still quite a few countries in the world that practice polygamy. Like Dubai in the UAE."

The Malay girl listened with wide eyes and clapped her hands, saying, "Yes, I never thought it could be like this."

Chen Jialuo glanced at her and asked with a smile, "You've only been with me for a short time, and you're already thinking about marrying me. Are you captivated by my superior skills?"

The Malay girl blushed, patted his chest, and retorted, "No, I was just asking. Besides, what kind of amazing skills do you have? Pfft."

Chen Jialuo perked up and said with a wicked grin, "Really? Then who was it that said no more? Since I didn't satisfy you, then let's continue."

As he spoke, he felt a heat in his lower abdomen and pushed her down onto the bed again.

The Malay girl panicked and quickly begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was wrong. I admit you're very skilled, please let me go, okay?"

Chen Jialuo chuckled, "Too late."

..

As the Lunar New Year drew to a close, some businesses in Hong Kong had already resumed operations by the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month. Although Chen Jialuo's establishments had not closed during the Lunar New Year, the twelfth day was considered an auspicious day for reopening by the merchants.

He led Goro Daimon, Ryuji Yamazaki, and the others along Prince Road, carrying flower baskets and red envelopes, visiting each household to offer New Year's greetings and wish for good fortune.

Jialuo also handed out red envelopes to everyone he met. Merchants and customers alike gathered around him, trying to flatter him with auspicious words, mostly wishing the business to prosper and have a steady stream of wealth.

Some even expressed their hope that he would find a wife and have children soon. Chen Jialuo listened with a smile and returned some auspicious words. When the message was sent to his own venue, his henchmen cheered enthusiastically.

The young ladies surrounded him, using the excuse of receiving red envelopes to grope him. Some touched his buttocks, some touched his chest, and the bolder ones even touched his penis.

This made him, who usually has a thick skin and is the one teasing others, the opposite of what he was doing today, getting teased by them. The ladies, who had succeeded, laughed and joked like they had won a battle.

Chen Jialu shouted for them to stop, but they wouldn't listen. The entire gang of female hooligans was making a scene. He couldn't take it anymore, so he handed the remaining red envelopes to Yamazaki Ryuji and Daimon Goro, and slipped away.

As for Yamazaki Ryuji and Daimon Goro, they weren't much better off. These young ladies, in groups of three or five, were groping and groping them indiscriminately. Even these two seasoned veterans were embarrassed and blushed deeply.

But since they were people from his own establishment, he couldn't get angry... After venting his anger on the entire street, their bodies and faces were covered in lipstick marks. Even their buttocks weren't spared.

Some weren't just lipstick marks, but also handprints... making Chen Jialuo burst into laughter. They, however, said, "Brother Luo, you're not much better off; look at yourself."

Chen Jialuo looked down and saw that his hands and white clothes were covered in foundation and lipstick marks. It was true that the eldest brother was no match for the second brother, as both of them had a lot of pockmarks on their faces.

Besides the Prince's Road area, his subordinates also gave New Year's money to the businesses and merchants under their jurisdiction on this day, receiving their blessings.

The merchants, the henchmen, and the prostitutes all genuinely hoped the business would improve. There was no other reason than that they could earn money working under Chen Jialuo and his associates.

· ····Requesting flowers···· ·······

This is something nowhere else can compare to; they come out here to earn money and for a better life. As Chen Jialuo was about to return, a proprietress caught his attention.

The proprietress met his eyes, walked up excitedly, and exclaimed, "Brother Luo, I'm the proprietress of the mutton soup shop you helped before! My husband and I have come here and set up a stall."

Chen Jialuo exclaimed, "Ah!" He remembered, he came from the Joint Commission. He asked with a smile, "How long have you been here? Aren't you going home for the New Year?"

.... ... 0

The proprietress stammered excitedly, saying, "I've only been here for about a month. I'm not going back home; I'm hoping to earn more money here."

As he spoke, he pulled his husband, who was huddled in the crowd, out of the crowd. "This is my husband, Brother Luo, you've met him before."

She then said to her husband reproachfully, "Brother Luo is here, and you didn't even say hello."

Her husband, hunched over, smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Brother Luo."

Chen Jialuo certainly remembered her husband—a coward—and asked with a smile, "How have you been feeling this past month?"

Her husband shrank back and said in a fawning tone, "Everything is fine, everything is fine."

The proprietress added, "Setting up a stall here feels a million times more reassuring than over there. It's all thanks to Brother Luo's leadership. I hope Brother Luo continues to rise in rank, lives a long and healthy life, and protects us ordinary folks and vendors."

Chen Jialuo smiled. This proprietress really knew how to talk. He knew that she was talking to him to better establish herself here and prevent other merchants and his henchmen from bullying her.

After all, she had spoken to him.

Chapter 452 is a bombshell: the collaboration between Chuanbao and Datuk has been exposed.

"Okay, thank you for your kind words."

Other merchants, not knowing who started it, also gathered around Chen Jialuo, offering auspicious words. Although they knew it was flattery, it did sound pleasant.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Chuanbao and his gang, carrying fish head signs, were distributing lucky money to merchants, henchmen, and ladies, hoping for good fortune and a good harvest this year.

After finishing the task, Chuanbao took Yutoubiao and his men to eat at one of his restaurants. While everyone was chatting and laughing, Feiji, one of Yutoubiao's men, came over and whispered something to Yutoubiao.

The contract that Chuanbao asked him to check didn't mention the cruise ship at all; it only said that they were in charge of a house in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Then he asked Fish Head Biao if there was anything wrong with the boss's plan, and whether he should warn his uncle to avoid him being scammed, since we had also invested a lot of money in it.

After hearing this, Yu Tou Biao looked at Chuan Bao, who was laughing and having a good time, and thought for a moment, "I'll tell him after I finish eating."

The plane grunted in response and then returned to the table next to it.

Just then, someone asked Chuanbao to write a couplet, saying that his handwriting was very beautiful and requesting his calligraphy. Calligraphy was Chuanbao's hobby in his spare time, and when someone suggested it, he immediately became eager to try.

The perceptive Fish Head quickly found the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, and with a burst of laughter, took off his coat and asked, "What would you like me to write?"

Yu Toubiao said, "It's good to write anything, as long as it's written by you, Uncle."

The others chimed in, laughing as they looked at the fish head sign and said, "Then let's write a couplet, which can be hung on the door for good luck. It's perfect timing, since it snowed today, so let's say 'Auspicious snow welcomes spring, bringing blessings to the door; plum blossoms celebrate the new year, bringing good fortune to the household.'"

He dipped his brush in ink, and the brush flew across the couplets. As soon as he wrote the first character, cheers erupted from the private room.

"Great! Excellent calligraphy!"

"That's awesome!"

"These characters could be sold for money."

As soon as the couplet was finished, a chorus of applause rang out.

Amidst the applause, Chuan Bao was immersed in the atmosphere, his smile unable to be contained. He said, "This year will definitely be better than last year. Just from the cooperation I signed with the Datuk, I can earn hundreds of thousands a month. And that's in bad times. In good times, millions or tens of millions are no problem. Follow me and I'll say one thing: eat well, drink well, drink heartily, and eat meat to your heart's content!"

Another round of cheers erupted. Airplane glanced at Fish Head Brand in the crowd, his expression complex. He truly felt that Chuanbao had been deceived by the Datuk. Fish Head Brand happened to see him too, and noticing the worry in his eyes, he nodded. Although he didn't speak, his action spoke volumes.

After writing five couplets in a row, having exhausted all his knowledge, he handed the competition over to the others and sat aside watching.

Taking advantage of his good mood, Yu Toubiao walked over and whispered in his ear, "Uncle, Feiji told me that the contract you gave him didn't mention anything about the cruise ship at all. It only said that we would manage several properties in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Is there a trap here?"

Chuanbao sighed and said, "Who is the Datuk? He's a Malaysian official, and we've seen his power lately. Besides, he was hired by Deng Wei, so why would he lie to me? And besides, money has been flowing into our pockets all this time, so don't worry..."

Yu Toubiao said, "I'm still a little worried. Only things in black and white are convincing."

Chuanbao said impatiently, "Fine, after today is over, I'll talk to the Datuk and have him get a new contract. He probably made a mistake too."

Upon hearing this, Yu Tou Biao put down his snacks slightly and said, "Okay."

Chuan Bao said this, but he didn't actually care at all. He trusted the Datuk and his own status in the underworld, believing that no one would dare to brandish a big knife in front of him.

After everyone had written some couplets, they cleared away the writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones and began to eat. Halfway through the meal, the door to the private room was pushed open. Five or six men in suits, with badges hanging around their necks, walked in.

The man in the lead looked at Chuan Bao and introduced himself, saying, "I am Zhao Wei'an, Senior Inspector of the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau. Chuan Bao, we suspect you are involved in a commercial fraud case and need you to come back to assist in the investigation."

Everyone was stunned by these words. For a second or maybe two, the entire private room erupted in chaos.

4.7 “Wow! What are you guys saying?!”

"How could this be! Cop, you must have made a mistake!"

"Damn it, you dare to arrest our boss? Believe me or not, I'll kill you all!"

Everyone was indignant, including Fish Head and Airplane. But they didn't have the guts to kill a cop in public; nobody wanted to spend the rest of their lives in jail.

Zhao Weian knew they were just talking, so he walked straight up to Chuanbao, took out a pair of gleaming silver handcuffs from his waist, and snapped them onto Chuanbao's hands, who was still in shock.

Chapter 453 String Explosion Gets Arrested, Jialuo's Reaction

The cold handcuffs snapped Chuanbao back to his senses. His heart sank to the bottom. He didn't know what was going on, but he still protested, shouting, "Damn it, officer, it's just assisting with an investigation, you don't need to wear these handcuffs!"

Zhao Wei'an said calmly, "This is an order from above. I'm sorry."

As he spoke, he pushed the skewer out. The reporters, who had already obtained inside information, were like mice smelling the aroma of rice, already waiting at the entrance of the restaurant.

Seeing that Chuanbao was being led out, people immediately started snapping photos with flash. Within three hours, Chuanbao's arrest was on the front page of the newspapers.

——“The arrest of a scumbag from the United Sheng Group for allegedly trading in mandarin oranges in Malaysia has sparked a dramatic shift in the political landscape, with a turf war between gangs on the verge of erupting on the 14th.”

Chen Jialuo learned of Chuanbao's arrest the moment he was caught. He was currently at his branch on Prince Road, enjoying tangerines he'd brought from Taiwan, with his cyborg maids Mimi and Kunkun giving him a back massage and a shoulder massage, thoroughly enjoying himself.

He hadn't originally planned to bring the cyborg maid to the branch, but the weather had been really cold lately, and his bed at the branch was unheated seven out of ten days.

Just as they were heading to the NESTS Fortress, they were instantly brought over. They could be used to pass on messages when needed, clean the rooms, or warm the beds when not in use.

Even so, the two of them managed to get it back from the other eight cyborg sisters by playing rock-paper-scissors.

Goro Daimon strode in from outside, plopped down next to him, picked up a tangerine from the fruit plate, and put it in his mouth without peeling it.

He ate a whole plateful before stopping, which made Chen Jialuo's eyelids twitch. He said, "Eating it with the skin on isn't bitter."

Goro Daimon swallowed the orange in his mouth and said, "It's not bitter, it's super sweet. You're wasting the peel. Brother Luo, you know, right? Chuanbao got arrested and is still in jail explaining things. It's because of that contract he bragged about with that Malaysian Datuk."

He said this with schadenfreude, "Serves him right. The newspapers also reported that the contract didn't mention anything about the cruise ship at all; it was all about the real estate project in Kuala Lumpur. In my opinion, it's good that his uncle is going bankrupt this time. Let's see if he still comes to you and grumbles. Serves him right! Hahaha."

He burst into laughter, laughing so hard you could see his tonsils.
