Lei Gong was very shrewd. In less than a week, he had reached a cooperation agreement with Ho Sin, the gambling king of Macau, and directly intercepted Hung Hing's winnings.

They snatched the baccarat casino that Hung Hing's Chiang Tin-sang had originally negotiated, turning it into the business of the Sanlian Gang. It has to be said that the old fox is still cunning; Lei Gong's method of intercepting the deal probably caught Hung Hing off guard.

Jiang Tiansheng probably wouldn't be able to react in time, and even if he did, the betting rights would already belong to Lei Gong; the die was cast.

Inside Lei Gong's villa, Lei Gong wore a deep smile. Thinking back to Jiang Tiansheng's previous refusal to relinquish the gambling rights in Macau, he suddenly found him somewhat laughable and even looked down on him, thinking that he was still too young.

Now that he owns the gambling rights, Jiang Tiansheng has no chance of even getting his 50% stake in the gambling.

Lei Gong was a generation older than Jiang Tiansheng and of the same generation as Jiang Tiansheng's father. He had extensive connections and was able to steal the job. Jiang Tiansheng was too young after all.

Ren Jiu was sitting next to Lei Gong, leisurely drinking tea. He knew that Lei Gong had already intercepted the casino in Macau, which was also a plot point in the movie.

Lei Gong smiled and said, "If Jiang Tiansheng won't cooperate with me, then I'll just steal his business."

"Ren Jiu, from now on, the Paramount Casino in Macau will be in your hands."

The casino business is a lucrative one. The gambling industry in Macau is booming, attracting countless tourists every year. It is also one of the world's largest gambling cities, with a large number of tourists from all over the world. Opening a casino there is like making money while lying down every day, without having to worry about losing money.

Casinos can also generate various industries. The revenue from casinos alone, plus loan sharking, can make a lot of money. This is why Lei Gong is so obsessed with casinos. Owning a casino business is like owning a golden goose that lays golden eggs.

The reason why Lei Gong let Ren Jiu manage the Paramount Casino in Haojiang was because Ren Jiu was the only one who was close to Haojiang. The branch in Hong Kong Island was also established by Ren Jiu, and the people under him were all Ren Jiu's men.

Lei Gong trusted Ren Jiu's abilities, which is why he put him in charge of the casino business here.

Ren Jiu squinted, nodded, put down his teacup, and said, "Boss, I understand. I will definitely manage the casino well."

Lei Gong chuckled and said, "When the casino opens, I will definitely invite many people to come and support you."

Ren Jiu nodded: "Thank you, Chief."

After Lei Gong explained some casino matters to Ren Jiu, he let Ren Jiu leave, preparing to quickly take over the casino business in Haojiang.

……

In the evening, in the presidential suite of the Peninsula Hotel, Ren Jiu and Ding Yao were having dinner at the dining table. Ding Yao was wearing a black dress, her hair was piled up high, and she was wearing lipstick. She looked cold and charming.

She usually has a gentle demeanor, but this dress gives her a unique charm, while Ren Jiu, dressed in a black suit, looks strong and powerful, adding to his elegant and mature aura.

He held a knife and fork, gracefully cutting his steak while sipping red wine, savoring every bite.

Ren Jiu put the steak in his mouth, chewed it for a while, and then wiped his mouth with a napkin. Western food is all about the atmosphere, and you can't really get full. Ren Jiu was just tasting the flavor.

Ding Yao took a sip of red wine, looked at Ren Jiu, and said coldly, "I've already taken over the casino. I'm going to make a move against Lei Gong. You must help me, Brother Jiu."

Ding Yao is a woman who will stop at nothing to climb the social ladder. You should know that Lei Gong is her sister's husband, but she still dared to lay a hand on him. The reason Ding Yao was able to succeed was because Lei Gong had no suspicion of her.

Ren Jiu looked at Ding Yao and said, "Lei Gong is my boss, and you are my woman. But if a boss is gone, you can find another one. I will definitely support you."

Ren Jiu's meaning is obvious. Of course, he also intends to get rid of Lei Gong. One person, one position. As long as Lei Gong is in power, he will never be able to take over. If the boss doesn't die, how can the underlings have a chance to rise?

Ding Yao smiled. She felt she hadn't misjudged him. With Ren Jiu's help, everything else was sure to be a sure thing. Then, she looked at Ren Jiu with a charming gaze:

"I am your woman, and what is mine is yours."

Ren Jiu didn't take these words seriously. Back then, Ding Yao had planned to kill Gao Jie, who was mute, to silence him, but she failed. Anyone who actually believed Ding Yao's sweet words probably wouldn't even know how they died.

The reason Ren Jiu wanted to help Ding Yao was because he didn't want to be subordinate to others for long and was unwilling to always be a lackey. Now, he could use Ding Yao to kill Lei Gong without arousing suspicion.

As for Ding Yao, she is extremely cunning and ruthless. Ren Jiu is also secretly wary of Ding Yao, but she also has leverage over Ding Yao and is not worried that she will play any tricks.

Besides, Ren Jiu has so many skilled men under his command. If Ding Yao dares to play tricks on him, Ren Jiu can arrange for someone to kill her at any time, ruthlessly destroying her beauty.

Although Ding Yao is a difficult woman to control, Ren Jiu is not so easy to manipulate either, so Ren Jiu is not worried about Ding Yao playing any tricks on him.

At this moment, Ren Jiu looked at Ding Yao and asked, "Have you figured out how to deal with Lei Gong?"

Ren Jiu was also aware of Ding Yao's methods; in the movie, Ding Yao used Gao Jie to kill Lei Gong.

Ding Yao smiled and said, "Isn't Chicken very close to Lei Gong? They are from Hung Hing, and now they are at odds with our Sanlian Gang. We can frame Chicken and Chan Ho-nam for Lei Gong's death."

In fact, Ding Yao's methods are the same as in the movie. After Chicken gave up his position as the leader of the Triad and returned to Hong Kong Island, Lei Gong was killed by people arranged by Ding Yao.

Ding Yao deliberately called Chen Haonan and Shanji to Lei Gong's room, saying that Lei Gong wanted to see them, and then framed Chen Haonan and Shanji.

Upon hearing this, Ren Jiu raised an eyebrow and cursed, "Chen Haonan and Chicken, those two bastards, deserve to be framed."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yao rolled her eyes at Ren Jiu, knowing that Ren Jiu didn't have a good impression of the Hung Hing people, but Chen Haonan and Chicken were good pawns who could be used to frame others.

It's common knowledge that Lei Gong and Jiang Tiansheng had a falling out, so it wouldn't be unreasonable for Chen Haonan to kill Lei Gong at this point.

Ren Jiu looked at Ding Yao and thought that this woman was indeed very insidious. He had to do justice to the world and said calmly:

"Ding Yao, go take a shower in the bathroom first."

When Ding Yao heard Ren Jiu tell her to go to the bathroom to take a shower, her face turned pale and she didn't look well. It could only be said that she was both afraid of and in love with Ren Jiu, because Ren Jiu was so strong and rude.

However, Ding Yao had masochistic tendencies, and after hesitating for a moment, she obediently took a bath.

……

The next day, Ke Zhihua was washing Lei Gong's car in the villa, cleaning it meticulously, making sure to scrub every corner.

Although Ke Zhihua was Lei Gong's driver, he had been loyal to Lei Gong for many years and had worked hard for him even if he hadn't made any great contributions. Therefore, he was indeed different from ordinary drivers, and Lei Gong valued him highly.

This is why when Ren Jiu reprimanded Ke Zhihua, Ke Zhihua went to Lei Gong to complain, and Lei Gong was willing to stand up for Ke Zhihua.

It should be noted that Ren Jiu is the head of the Yi Zi Tang, while Ke Zhihua is just a small driver. However, Lei Gong is still willing to stand up for Ke Zhihua, which is also to win people's hearts.

Because Ke Zhihua had been with Lei Gong for so long, he knew many of Lei Gong's secrets. As Ke Zhihua said, the person who could be the driver was indeed Lei Gong's confidant.

As can be seen from the later movies, the fact that Ke Zhihua was able to become the leader of the Black Panther Hall shows that Lei Gong valued him, and Ke Zhihua held a certain position by Lei Gong's side.

At this moment, Ding Yao walked over, but her steps were somewhat unnatural, indicating that she had been tortured by Ren Jiu.

Upon seeing Ding Yao, Ke Zhihua immediately bowed and scraped, saying:

"Miss Ding."

Ding Yao squinted and said to Ke Zhihua, "Xiao Hei, the gang leader plans to meet with Chen Haonan and Chicken tonight. He wants to talk to them and try to ease the tension with Mr. Jiang of Hung Hing. He needs Chicken and Chen Haonan to act as intermediaries."

Upon hearing this, Ke Zhihua's face lit up with joy. Previously, the gang leader and Jiang Tiansheng had a very unpleasant argument over the casino, and the Sanlian Gang had even occupied Liang Kun's territory, which made Hung Hing very dissatisfied.

Although Ke Zhihua was a member of the Sanlian Gang, he was a loyal friend and tended to side with his cousin, Shanji.

Hearing that the gang leader wanted to ease tensions with the Hung Hing people, he quickly nodded in agreement: "I understand, Miss Ding. I will inform my cousin Chicken and Hao Nan to come over later."

Ke Zhihua did not doubt Ding Yao's words, because Ding Yao was Lei Gong's assistant and confidante. Lei Gong entrusted Ding Yao with many things to inform and convey, so Ke Zhihua had no doubts about what she said. He then planned to inform his cousin.

……

As evening approached, Ke Zhihua finished his work and then picked up the phone to call Shanji. Shanji's voice came from the other end of the line:

"Cousin, what's wrong?"

Ko Chi-wah said with a smile, "Chicken, I haven't had time to meet you, my cousin, since I came to Hong Kong Island. I was planning to ask you to have a drink today. Where are you?"

Upon hearing this, Chicken quickly said, "Cousin, I'm at the Waves Bar in Tsz Wan Shan. Look for me there."

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

Ke Zhihua nodded in agreement and then drove to the Langjian Bar in Tsz Wan Shan.

This bar was also owned by Chan Ho-nam. Once inside, the atmosphere was lively, with many customers dancing wildly under the neon lights.

Inside a private room, Chan Ho-nam and Chicken were drinking, along with Bao Pi, Tai Tin Yee, and the others. These four brothers usually hung out together all the time.

When Ke Zhihua came in, Shanji quickly stood up with a smile to greet him: "Cousin, you're here. Let them hear you sing."

"My cousin is really good at karaoke."

Ke Zhihua enjoys singing and karaoke in his spare time, and he's quite skilled at it.

Ke Zhihua chuckled: "No problem."

Then Ke Zhihua took the microphone and sang a duet with Shanji. After they finished singing, the group had a few more drinks.

Ke Zhihua then said, "Shanji, I came to see you this time because there's something else going on. The gang leader told me that there was a misunderstanding with your Mr. Jiang before, and now he wants to smooth things over with Mr. Jiang, so he sent me to bring you two over."

"You two are also close associates of Mr. Jiang. Discuss how to ease the tension with him."

Hearing this, Chicken suddenly felt a little proud. After all, Ho-nam and he had gained the attention of Chiang Tin-sang in Hung Hing, especially Chan Ho-nam. Chiang Tin-sang would always have Chan Ho-nam by his side for any important matters.

Upon hearing this, Chan Ho-nam was full of confidence. He hadn't expected that Lei Kung would want to ease the tension with Hung Hing. However, this was a good thing, as it would be difficult to do business if the two gangs were fighting each other.

Ko Chi-wah paused again and said, "After all, Hung Hing is a local power in Hong Kong, and our leader Lei Kung doesn't want to have a serious falling out with you."

Hearing this, Chan Ho-nam nodded, knowing that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, and confidently said:

“Our Hung Hing is indeed a local power. Mr. Chiang just didn’t want to make things too tense before.”

Chicken chuckled: "The two major gangs should join forces. It would benefit everyone. I promise you, cousin."

After all, Ke Zhihua had personally come to persuade Shanji, so Shanji was naturally willing to agree and planned to see Lei Gong today. After the three of them exchanged drinks and had a few cups, they followed Ke Zhihua to Lei Gong's villa.

At 8 p.m., Shanji and his companion got into Ke Zhihua's car and went to the villa to meet Lei Gong.

……

Meanwhile, inside Lei Gong's villa, Gao Jie knocked on the study.

"Dong dong dong."

Soon, Lei Gong in the study heard a knock on the door and paused:

"Come in."

At this moment, Kao Chieh came to Lei Gong, who was working on documents at the table, writing and drawing with a pen, and signing his name.
