Starting from Hong Kong in 1988!

"It's getting late, let's go downstairs and check your things."

Jiang Lanxin put down her wine glass and led Xu Guangkun out the door.

Before he even reached the bottom of the building, Xu Guangkun spotted a figure in the distance.

spider.

As the two approached.

His greedy gaze swept over Jiang Lanxin for a moment before he said, "Chairwoman Jiang, would you mind if I had a word with Brother Kun?"

"It's possible, but..." Jiang Lanxin crossed her arms with a smile and asked, "I have a question for you."

"What?" the spider asked, puzzled.

"When you looked at me with those disgusting eyes at the dinner table today, and just now..."

Jiang Lanxin's tone suddenly turned cold. "What are you thinking about?"

The air froze instantly upon hearing this.

Xu Guangkun glanced at Jiang Lanxin.

This was the first time this woman had shown a side of herself that she had never seen before when she was with him.

overbearing.

Spider looked surprised for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, "Chairman Jiang, a beautiful lady is sought after by gentlemen."

"I like what you said." Jiang Lanxin nodded, but before she could even wait for Spider to breathe a sigh of relief, she said, "But I really don't like you as a person."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and two men in black suits appeared out of nowhere.

Spider wanted to say something, but the two cold-faced men punched him in the throat and dragged him into the shadows.

Amidst the faint sounds of striking and screams, Xu Guangkun gave Jiang Lanxin a strange look.

"What are you looking at?"

Jiang Lanxin casually pointed to the bread truck and motorcycle parked to the side.

"Come and see if there's anything else you're missing."

"Oh, okay."

Xu Guangkun responded and followed her to the bread cart.

Jiang Lanxin took out her keys, opened the trunk, and bent down to get in.

Xu Guangkun's gaze lingered on her for a moment before immediately looking away.

"Go ahead and watch if you want."

Jiang Lan said without looking back, rummaged around in the car for a while, then turned around and handed him something.

Xu Guangkun took the items.

"Bulletproof vest?"

"Yes, I only prepared one item, but it should be able to help you." She patted Xu Guangkun on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I won't beat you up if you look at me. On the contrary, I'm quite happy to see you looking at me."

Xu Guangkun touched his nose. "Then he..."

Jiang Lanxin smiled and interrupted, "It's too ugly."

Xu Guangkun was taken aback and said somewhat awkwardly, "That makes sense."

"This world always seems to favor good-looking people, doesn't it?" Jiang Lanxin shoved the car keys into his arms. "Just a few here, I'll have someone make more if it's not enough."

When it came to business, Xu Guangkun immediately nodded and began taking inventory in the car.

That's enough.

"That's enough." Jiang Lanxin raised her hand and patted him on the chest. "Keep it up, don't let anything go wrong."

After saying that, he turned and left decisively.

A moment later, the man in the black suit emerged from the shadows, nodded to Xu Guangkun, and followed Jiang Lanxin.

Xu Guangkun nodded in response to the greeting before putting away his bulletproof vest and walking into the shadows.

The spider has changed its appearance now.

His eyes were swollen like panda eyes, blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth, and his body was covered in footprints.

Xu Guangkun glanced at him with some disdain. "Speak, what do you want?"

Spider wiped the blood from his mouth and said with a sinister look, "I'm not done with that woman."

He then said, "Brother Kun, don't you think 25% for one person is too low?"

.....

Time flew by and it was already the next day.

But before the agreed time, Xu Guangkun met the three people separately at his home.

If they are all the same.

25 percent is too little.

Wang Hu even said, "Spider contacted me and said he had already arranged for a boat to escape, and that he would kill you and the driver, splitting the profits 50/50. But I think he's unethical. Why don't we cooperate to kill him, splitting the profits 33/50 each, and then we can continue to cooperate and earn even more in the future?"

Xu Guangkun saw the group off with a strange expression.

The money hasn't even arrived yet, and the situation is already becoming unpredictable.

However, Xu Guangkun also understood that these people wanted more than just 33% or 50%.

They want more!

So here's the question: who should we cooperate with first? And who should we eliminate first?

Only by being able to stand at the end can one achieve this?

The light in the house flickered, and Xu Guangkun sat cross-legged on the sofa, lost in thought.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Guangkun suddenly spoke.

Pan Ting walked to the sofa without stopping, handed him a glass of water, and said, "The people you're working with all have ulterior motives. Isn't that too risky?"

This woman isn't stupid; in just a short while, she's seen through everyone's scheming and infighting.

"Who do you think I should collaborate with?"

Xu Guangkun asked.

"Do we really have to go?"

"You absolutely must go."

Pan Ting was silent for a moment, then said, "Wang Hu, I guess. He wants to work with us a second time."

Xu Guangkun tapped the table with his fingernail, without saying a word.

......

Time flew by and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

The four, who were outwardly friendly but inwardly at odds, met downstairs at Xu Guangkun's place.

But before they even set off, they encountered a problem.

The driver will undoubtedly take the Type 54 pistol; the question then becomes who will take the AK and who will take the Remington.

"The recoil of this gun is too strong, I can't handle it." The largest spider pointed at the Remington and reached out his hand towards the AK first.

Wang Hu glanced at the remaining two guns, then looked up and made eye contact with the driver before extending his hand to Remington.

Unexpectedly, Xu Guangkun pressed down on his hand.

"Let me handle this, Spider. I've used this gun before."

Xu Guangkun picked up the Remington.

Of course, he never actually played it.

Wang Hu remained silent for a moment, then nodded and looked at the spider.

Who's riding the bike?

The person in charge of preventing armored trucks from stopping, with an AK-47, undoubtedly faces the greatest risk.

Spider exchanged a subtle glance with the driver before looking directly at Wang Hu. "Why don't you take over?"

"I'm not very good at riding a bike."

"I'm not very good at it either."

That's where it got stuck.

In the end, Xu Guangkun made the decision: "Spider, come on."

Spider was somewhat reluctant, but under the watchful eyes of the three, he didn't say anything more.

The group set off in a grand procession.

The three people in the car headed towards Argyle Street, while Spider drove alone towards Po Sang Bank.

.....

Argyle Street, named after the 19th-century British merchant ship "Argyle", was established in the 1920s.

The buildings here are a mix of old and new, with modern shopping malls like Langham Place on one side and pre-war tenement buildings and arcades on the other.

On one side are women in suits and cheongsams, and on the other side are messy signs and a chaotic crowd.

Prosperity, poverty, civilization, barbarity.

Various antonyms blend together seamlessly here…

The driver parked the car at the corner of the tenement building, turned around, and looked at the two people in the car.

After a long pause, he said in a hoarse voice, "Load the money into the car and then immediately attack the spider?"

Wang Hu looked at Xu Guangkun: "Brother Kun, let's do it as agreed, 33% each, and continue to cooperate next time."

Xu Guangkun readily agreed: "Okay."

....
