"It means that we gangsters, no matter how prestigious we are, still have to listen to the police and bow our heads when we see them."

Ye Tian said reluctantly, "I haven't done anything wrong, why should I be detained for twenty-four hours? This is completely absurd!"

"You're the leader of the Hung Hing Causeway Bay branch now," Liang Kun said in a fit of rage. "Your status is different now. The police are doing this to teach you a lesson and let you know the rules."

"Tomorrow, it's not just you; Greyhound, Dafei, and the other newly promoted hall masters will all have to go through this process. It's a common practice in the martial arts world, so just bear with it."

Ye Tian sneered: "I'd like to see who dares to lay a finger on me tomorrow."

Liang Kun almost smashed his phone. He was really afraid that Ye Tian would become stubborn and confront the police, which would make things troublesome.

Sometimes he really couldn't understand why Ye Tian's thinking was different from others, even though they were all involved in the underworld.

I watched him grow up, so how did he develop such a fearless personality?

Helpless, Leung Kwan could only quickly arrange manpower and make preparations in advance, so that if the police really wanted to arrest people tomorrow, there would be a way to deal with it and prevent a big conflict from happening.

As for the police arresting people, this is already commonplace within Hung Hing.

Of the twelve leaders of Hung Hing, apart from Ye Tian and Greyhound who were recently promoted, which one of them was not invited to "have tea" by the police when he was a leader?

In a large triad like Hung Hing, even the smallest thing can be magnified.

For example, the murder of Little B would have been just a feud between other second-rate triads in other organizations, and wouldn't have caused much of a stir. But in Hung Hing, it became a major event that shook the entire underworld, and the police and other triads paid close attention to it.

This is the reality of double standards.

After thinking it over, Liang Kun decided to invite Jiang Tiansheng over tomorrow to oversee things! Firstly, it would represent the Hung Hing leader's respect for Ye Tian, ​​and secondly, if necessary, Jiang Tiansheng could put appropriate pressure on Ye Tian to prevent him from being too impulsive and to consider the overall situation.

After running around for half a day, the banquet arrangements were finally completed.

When Liang Kun had a moment to himself, he took out a cigar, lit it, took a deep drag, and complained, "I must have owed him something in my past life to have to worry about him so much in this one!"

Chicken, standing to the side, seeing Handsome Kun's helpless expression, couldn't help but say, "Boss, I think Brother Tin's security company has a lot of potential. Could we copy it and set one up in Mong Kok?"

Liang Kun paused for a moment, then asked with some surprise, "That security company, you think it's that good?"

The pheasant instantly perked up, its eyes gleaming with excitement: "Of course it's promising! It's incredibly promising!"

"Turning what used to be illegal protection money collection into legal security employment contracts—that's a genius idea!"

"As a result, our relationship with the merchants has improved a lot, and we no longer have to have conflicts at the drop of a hat like before."

"In fact, this can't even be called protection money anymore; it's a legitimate service fee. Even if the police and the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) wanted to cause us trouble, they wouldn't be able to find any fault with it!"

Liang Kun laughed and scolded, "This kid always has a lot of clever ideas; he can always come up with some unexpected and brilliant ideas."

Chicken, rubbing his hands together excitedly, said, "Boss, let's start a security company in Mong Kok! We're sure to make a fortune, and it'll also enhance Hung Hing's image in Mong Kok!"

Handsome Kun shook his head, saying helplessly, "What? How do we do it?"

Chicken asked, puzzled, "Why can't we do it? If Brother Tin can do it in Causeway Bay, we can do it in Mong Kok too. We can just follow his model."

Liang Kun sighed softly: "We can't learn Ah Tian's ways."

"Have you forgotten what our files look like in the police force? They're probably a foot thick, right? Full of all sorts of criminal records and bad deeds."

The pheasant smiled wryly and said, "It's more than a foot thick; I estimate it's more than two feet thick."

Liang Kun shrugged: "Do you think people like us can get a security company license? That's just wishful thinking."

"This thing is indeed a good product; it's legal and compliant, and you can even make money from it, but unfortunately, we just can't get it right!"

"Once Ah Tin has established and is operating his security company in Causeway Bay, we can just ask him for people and have him send a team to Mong Kok to handle the security business. We can just sit back and enjoy the benefits, which is much more convenient."

Pheasant suddenly realized, gave a thumbs up and said, "Boss, you're really amazing! You thought of everything! How come I didn't think of that?"

Liang Kun wasn't smug at all; instead, he said with some bitterness, "What's there to be smug about? After hanging out with Ye Tian for so long, I should have thought of these things long ago."

"His investment strategies and methods are never hidden from us. All the key points are clearly laid out in front of us, but we just can't learn them or replicate them."

Pheasant deeply understood this. He nodded and said, "Indeed, these things sound easy and easy to understand, but actually doing them is a different story."

"We don't have Ye Tian's clean file, nor his powerful connections and strength, so applying for security qualifications is simply impossible."

Thinking of this, Shanji gently patted his face and said with some annoyance, "Boss, I'm sorry, I just assumed things and didn't consider the actual situation."

Ugly Kun shook his head: "It's okay. The fact that you have this idea shows that you're dedicated and want to do a good job with the Mong Kok branch. That's enough."

Chicken scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "This is what I should do. I'm a member of Hung Hing, so naturally I have to think about Hung Hing's interests."

Handsome Kun nodded slightly, then suddenly changed the subject, asking, "Both Little B and Chan Ho-nam were killed by Yao Yang of Tung Sing. What are your thoughts on this? Do you want to seek revenge on Yao Yang?"

Chicken paused for a moment, pondered for a second, and then said, "If Dongxing Yaoyang hadn't provoked me, I wouldn't have gone to seek revenge on him."

"Brother B's matter was already settled. Tung Sing paid the price of territory, which can be considered as giving Hung Hing an explanation."

"Although Chan Ho-nam is my brother, he is no longer a member of Hung Hing. I am now a leader of Hung Hing. If I seek revenge against Yiu Yeung under the guise of Hung Hing, it could trigger a full-scale conflict between Hung Hing and Tung Sing, causing trouble for Hung Hing."

Liang Kun chuckled, his tone laced with sarcasm: "Chicken, let me teach you a lesson."

"In this world, the most important thing isn't the rules, it's ability."

"Look at the rules of the underworld now, they're everywhere. It's completely different from when we first started out."

"But are these rules really meant to be followed?"

"Both obey and do not obey."

"When you are powerful enough, you can rewrite the rules and make others follow them."

"Who drafted the black-and-white agreement back then? It was the ruthless and powerful Lei Luo."

"It's just that now that there are no more powerful figures like Lei Luo, no one dares to break these rules easily."

Chicken fell silent for a moment, and Liang Kun's words made him think deeply.

The incident involving Sai B and Chan Ho-nam truly taught him a harsh lesson, making him understand the cruelty and reality of the underworld.

Liang Kun continued, "When you're in a triad, you have to be clear about things. Not everyone in a triad is someone you can confide in."

"You must be able to tell who is good to you and who is not, and you cannot easily trust others."

Pheasant nodded with a wry smile; he had already deeply understood this point.

"What is loyalty?" Handsome Kun looked at Chicken and said in a heavy tone, "I am loyal to the lamb, but if you don't keep your eyes wide open and easily trust others, you will easily be sold out and even help the other party count the money."

Chicken remained silent; the negotiations of the past few days had shaken his worldview.

In terms of loyalty to Chiang Tin-sang, few within Hung Hing could surpass that of Little B, but what was the result? For the sake of profit, Chiang Tin-sang still betrayed him.

Even the most loyal henchman of the Hung Hing leader can be sacrificed if there are enough benefits.

Everything is business; there are no eternal brothers, only eternal interests.

This sent chills down the pheasant's spine.

Chicken couldn't help but ask, "Boss, isn't there any real brotherhood in this gang?"

Liang Kun shrugged: "Of course there are, but they are very rare and extremely precious."

"For example, Ah Tian and I have a life-or-death bond."
