"I'll curse your mother the most!"

Inside a private room at the Lijing Club, Brother Xi, the leader of the Flying Dragon Gang, took the cell phone handed to him by his underling. After hearing only the first sentence from the person on the other end, he shoved the busty woman next to him aside and angrily cursed, "You bunch of bastards! I told you to keep an eye on the docks, and this is how you lot are supposed to manage them?"

"Do you know who took it? Find them and kill them!"

"I don't know, sir!"

"Go to hell, you bastard!"

Brother Xi slammed his cell phone to the ground, then grabbed a bottle of liquor from the table and gulped it down. Another henchman outside, his hand still covering the cell phone, leaned close to Brother Xi and whispered, "Boss, it's Liu Sheng on the phone!"

Xi Ge, who had been looking angry, immediately broke into a smile after taking the phone and said, "Mr. Liu, what's up so late? Want to treat me to a late-night snack?"

"Da Xi, I released the goods at your dock. Didn't you tell me everything was foolproof? How come my men are telling me the goods were broken into and a lot of them were stolen?" Liu Sheng's voice was icy cold, barely containing his anger. "Da Xi, this shipment can't have any problems. Find out who did it and bring back the missing parts, all intact!"

"These goods must not be known to customs, otherwise, if something goes wrong, many people will die. You know what to do!"

"Mr. Liu, we're not quite sure what's missing either, it's hard to find!"

"Go find the person first. As for what's missing, I'll send someone over to verify. You don't need to know too much about the details," Liu Sheng said, already getting impatient.

"Okay, I got it, Mr. Liu," Brother Xi hung up the phone and was about to smash his cell phone on the ground again when his henchman caught it with lightning speed.

"Get the car ready right away, I'm going to the dock. Tell Big Cat and the others to go ahead first," Brother Xi shouted to his underlings, then slumped onto the sofa. The hostesses, sensing the situation, also left the room.

The white-haired strategist next to Brother Xi whispered, "Boss, what did Liu Sheng say?"

"What else can I say? Find the people, retrieve the goods those bastards stole, confirm they're all there, then put them in oil drums and sink them all to the docks to feed the fish!"

"You dare cause trouble on my turf? Don't let me find out who did it!"

The reason why Brother Xi was so anxious and angry was that the nominal owner of this batch of goods, Mr. Liu, was not someone to be trifled with. He was America's Hongmen's black glove in Hong Kong, specializing in smuggling. Both the underworld and the legitimate world in Hong Kong had to give him face.

If his goods are lost, it won't just be Da hope who suffers. If they can't be found, Liu Sheng won't let it go easily. In that case, Da hope will have to go to sea to feed the fish.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Mingqiang immediately called Chen Dong to inform him that something had happened to the goods at the dock. Even the usually composed Chen Dong couldn't help but swear, "Damn it! Didn't I tell you to have someone keep an eye on it? How could this happen?"

"Who did this? Don't they know this batch of goods belongs to our Hongmen?"

"Mr. Chen, I've already instructed Da Xi of the Flying Dragon Gang to poach people..."

"The Flying Dragon Gang, could it be that these scoundrels are trying to steal our money?" Chen Dong clearly didn't trust the gangsters' words.

"How about we notify the Sanhehui and ask them to help us search?"

"Are you stupid? The fewer people who know about this, the better. Let them search first, I'll contact other people to go over," Chen Dong said, then hung up the phone. Seeing Chen Dong's anger, Zhang Yi asked, "What's wrong, Tony?"

"The machine tools that were being shipped to the mainland were tampered with and stolen at the Hong Kong pier," Chen Dong said, opening his notebook, finding Wang Huaimin's contact information, and dialing the number.

"Hello, Director Wang, it's me," Chen Dong said, walking to the window with his hands in his pockets. "Something happened to the goods in Hong Kong. Hmm, I'll send someone over right away. Do you think you can contact someone in Hong Kong and go check on them too?"

"Okay, I understand!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Dong called Bill over. "Bill, I have a batch of equipment that I planned to ship to the mainland, but something happened in Hong Kong. It was broken into, and I suspect the news is going to leak. Go over there and clean up the mess!"

Bill nodded. "What kind of equipment? What's missing?"

"A five-axis CNC machine tool and a turbofan engine—both prohibited equipment. We don't know exactly what was stolen yet, but we can't let the Hong Kong government know about this. This matter can't involve me!"

"Okay, I know what to do," Bill straightened his suit jacket, smiled and nodded at Zhang Yi sitting next to him, then opened the door and walked out.

Bill Chen Dong is trustworthy. If you entrust something to him, Chen Dong will not have any worries and will be sure to handle it cleanly.

Meanwhile, in Tuocheng, Wang Huaimin dialed Xia Qi's number and said, "Director Xia, something happened to the goods in Hong Kong!"

Xia Qi, on the other end of the phone, immediately asked anxiously, "Director Wang, what happened? Didn't you say it had already arrived at the port and our ship could just go and bring it back? How did something go wrong?"

"Mr. Chen Zaidong just called me, saying the goods are at the dock, but someone has broken into them. The situation is urgent, and I don't have time to explain in detail. I need you to take the fastest flight to Hong Kong immediately and retrieve the lost equipment!"

"This matter must not be leaked, and it absolutely must not involve Mr. Chen Zaidong. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. If necessary, I will use all means to eliminate the impact of this matter and will absolutely not involve Mr. Chen Zaidong!"

"Okay, you can set off right away. Once you arrive in Hong Kong, give me a call. Mr. Chen Zaidong has also sent someone over; I will give you their contact information then."

"good!"

The military region urgently coordinated a special plane to take Xia Qi and other security personnel from the Tuocheng military-civilian airport to Hong Kong.

Meanwhile, in New York, Chen Dong's private jet had already taken off. He used his connections to urgently arrange a direct flight to Hong Kong. On the plane, Bill was accompanied by twenty strong men, all of whom had kind and benevolent faces.

Xia Qi, being closer, arrived in Hong Kong earlier. He contacted Liu Mingqiang through Chen Dong and learned that the theft had occurred in Victoria Harbour. Xia Qi and his group then drove to the harbour, only to find it already crowded with all sorts of gangsters.

Seeing Xia Qi and his convoy enter, everyone craned their necks to see who it was. Xia Qi got out of the car, glanced at the gangsters in front of him, and said, "Da hope is over there. Mr. Liu sent us!"
