Hong Kong variety show: The tycoon who emerged from Portland Street
Chapter 76: Conditions
When Chen Mo told Thirteen Sister about how Dongxing had framed him over the phone, Thirteen Sister didn't say anything more.
Since it was Dongxing's people who struck first, Chen Mo's revenge is justified no matter what.
Thirteen Sister isn't someone who can't think straight.
Even though he and the old man with white hair had a good relationship, they were still two separate groups.
Chen Mo's relationship with him was clearly closer.
"The old man wants me to act as an intermediary and arrange a meeting with you. What do you think?"
Chen Mo thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, anyway, I didn't plan to kill the sand bug directly."
"That's settled then. I'll call Old Man Bai later to set a time. You can negotiate directly with him then. Feel free to make your demands. They're in the wrong anyway, so don't worry about me showing them any leniency."
"Don't worry, sister, I'm not the kind of person who would let myself be taken advantage of."
The white-headed bulbul was very proactive in rescuing the sand bug.
There was no way around it; among the Five Tigers of Dongxing, Smiling Tiger and Crow were Camel's men, and Situ Haonan and Lei Yaoyang's relationship with him was just so-so.
Only the sand bug is his man.
If Sha Meng dies, his forces will be reduced by more than half.
To show his sincerity, that very evening, the old man found a restaurant in Mong Kok and booked a private room.
Of course, he didn't dare choose an address on Chen Mo's territory.
Chen Mo and Thirteen Sister arrived at their appointment on time.
Upon entering the private room, there were two other people sitting next to the old man with white hair.
Although Chen Mo did not recognize the two people, one of them looked somewhat like Gentleman Sheng.
Yes, it must have come from a model.
Chen Mo guessed that it must be cola.
"Cola? When did you get back?" Thirteen Sister's slightly surprised voice rang out first.
"Just got back, long time no see!" Cola nodded and smiled at Thirteen Sister.
The old man's face, which had initially fallen when he saw Chen Mo, softened slightly after seeing Thirteen Sister and Cola greet him.
Thirteen Sister didn't exchange many pleasantries and pulled up a chair to sit down.
Chen Mo and Gao Jin sat down directly, completely ignoring the old man with white hair and the two people beside him.
"Chen Mo, your men captured Sandman and killed Sangbo and Semoxiong. Aren't you showing a lot of disrespect to Dongxing?"
The old man with white hair spoke coldly, first trying to pin a label on Chen Mo.
Chen Mo didn't even look up, lit a cigarette, and showed no intention of paying any attention to the old man.
"Didn't you hear me asking you a question?" Another man next to the old man slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo maintained an indifferent attitude and leisurely poured himself another cup of tea.
Seeing Chen Mo's behavior, the white-haired old man, who had been furious, calmed down and tugged at the person next to him: "Chen Mo, what exactly do you mean?"
Chen Mo said calmly, "Old man, if you asked me to meet today just to say some meaningless nonsense, then there's no need to continue this conversation."
"You..." The old man was speechless.
Cola glanced at Thirteen Sister and said in a deep voice, "Thirteen Sister, Chen Mo is your little brother. What do you have to say about this?"
The people present were all well aware of the matter concerning the sand bugs.
Even if Chen Mo killed the Sandman, it wouldn't be considered wrong.
They will have to pay a huge price to get the sand gnats back.
At the beginning, the old man with white hair wanted to take the initiative and gain the upper hand over Chen Mo in terms of momentum.
Unfortunately, Chen Mo showed no intention of taking the challenge; the old man's imposing manner had no effect whatsoever on Chen Mo.
Cola once helped Thirteen Sister avenge her father's death and also saved her life.
Thirteen Sister used to like Cola, and Cola knew that.
He spoke to Thirteen Sister hoping that she would suppress Chen Mo slightly out of respect for him.
After all, Thirteen Sister is Chen Mo's boss, so her words still carry weight.
Unfortunately, although Thirteen Sister liked Coca-Cola before, she still harbors some feelings for it even now.
But she wasn't stupid; she knew very well that Cola used to like Arun, and now she didn't like her anymore.
Romantic feelings between men and women mean absolutely nothing to Thirteen Sister.
"I only brought my eyes and ears today, not my mouth. I won't interfere in what's between Uncle Ben and Amer."
Thirteen Sister's words caused the Dongxing group to freeze for a moment.
The old man brought Coke along to make a fuss about the relationship between Coke and Thirteen Sister, but he didn't expect Thirteen Sister to not take it seriously at all.
"Chen Mo, tell me, how can we get rid of the sand bugs?" the old man asked Chen Mo with a stern face.
There was no other way; if bleeding was necessary, then bleeding had to be done.
Chen Mo's lips curled into a slight sneer: "Wouldn't it have been better if you had said this earlier? If you had, the sand bugs might have already gone home."
"First, I don't care what you do, get my place back in business within three days."
"Secondly, compensate me for the losses incurred at my venue. Based on past revenue, and considering the potential repercussions of your framing, let's make do with 20 million!"
"Chen Mo!" The old man slammed his hand on the table. "Don't go too far!"
The old man was truly frightened by Chen Mo's outrageous demands.
Although resolving the business closure issue is troublesome, with the connections that Tung Hing has accumulated in Hong Kong Island over the years, and by arranging for a few of its underlings to turn themselves in to the police and take the blame for the drug possession, it won't be difficult to resolve.
However, the time will be a bit tight.
However, a compensation of 20 million is a different story.
Dongxing's money didn't come from thin air.
That was obtained at great risk, through packets of heroin.
Chen Mo asked for 20 million in one go; anyone would feel the pinch.
"I can help you resolve the issue of your venue being closed, but time is a bit tight. Could you grant me a few more days?"
In addition, 20 million in compensation is too much.
"You only have six venues closed, so your losses will be at most one or two million. Don't go too far!"
"I own six venues, with a combined daily turnover of over two million. Now that they've been closed for so many days, plus the damage to my reputation, do you really think I need your twenty million?"
Chen Mo glared at him, showing no sign of backing down.
"As for the time needed to resolve the business suspension issue, I can give you a few more days. However, I don't know if Sandworm can hold out until then!"
"What do you mean!" the old man exclaimed anxiously.
Chen Mo shrugged: "It's nothing. My men didn't do anything to the sand bug after they caught it. Of course, that doesn't include feeding it water or food."
I will release my people only when you resolve the issue of the business closure.
I estimate that, given the size of sand bugs, they shouldn't have any problem going hungry for six or seven days.
"You..." the old man gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! I'll resolve your business closure issue within three days. But you must guarantee the safety of the sand bugs!"
"That's not necessarily true," Chen Mo said nonchalantly. "After all, Dongxing didn't pay for Sandman's food, so I have no obligation to support him."
The old man knew that Chen Mo was asking for money.
Twenty million is no small sum, and he really didn't want to give it, but he couldn't let the sand bug's life go unsaid.
Although it hurts to spend 20 million, it's not impossible for Sha Meng to pay for it himself when he comes back.
The most important thing now is to rescue them first.
"Okay, I'll send you the 20 million later."
The old man with white hair reluctantly agreed. At the same time, his desire to kill Chen Mo grew stronger.
