Hong Kong variety show: From a lowly 49-year-old to the world's richest man

Chen Yao stared at Big B with a strange expression and asked, "Big B, didn't you know that Ah Kun was supposed to guard Kowloon City's territory last night?"

Damn it, he called this brute last night and told him to leave, and he still managed to make such a mess of things.

Doesn't this make him seem very incompetent as the gang's top strategist?

"But didn't he finish the fight a long time ago?"

Big B, with his neck stiff, replied in a muffled voice.

Her words were full of grievance.

"That battle is over, but no one can guarantee that Hong Tai won't launch a surprise attack."

Chen Yao was speechless.

It's like a scholar encountering a soldier—you can't reason with him!

"Alright, let's leave it at that." Jiang Tiansheng waved for Big B to sit down, then said, "Big B, have you thought through what Ah Yao asked you to do?"

"Anan and the others are ready, and I've also arranged for people to scout the location. We should be able to get things done in the next few days," Big B replied in a deep voice.

He didn't dare gather people to draw lots for the life-or-death lottery when it came to killing Chen Mei.

Chen Tailong was killed by Chen Haonan and his four friends in secret without telling anyone else. It's unreasonable and illogical for them to cause trouble and then have others draw lots for their lives.

Big B was also glad that he hadn't directly arranged for Chan Ho-nam and his men to be killed that day, otherwise he himself wouldn't have been able to keep his position.

When community organizations handle matters, especially those that are made public, they all emphasize fairness and impartiality.

Normally, Big B can openly favor Chan Ho-nam, but at this moment, he can only protect himself.

Jiang Tiansheng looked at Chen Yao and instructed, "Yao, you go back and gather intelligence for A-B, and try to get things done in the next few days."

"I've already arranged for someone to keep an eye on this."

Chen Yao wasn't new to this business. Back when Jiang Tiansheng had Big B draw lots, he had already arranged for people to keep an eye on Chen Mei's every move.

Chen Fan, who was standing to the side, listened to the others speaking in riddles without showing the slightest curiosity.

If it doesn't concern you, don't get involved.

Needless to say, Da Yu was already surveying Jiang Tiansheng's villa's feng shui when Da B came in, without even glancing at Da B directly.

"The intelligence will be out tomorrow. Until then, how do you plan this operation, Ah B? Don't tell me to just charge in; those five guys won't get close to the target."

Chen Yao had serious doubts that Big B's men would mess things up.

It should be noted that Chan Ho-nam and his gang have hundreds of thousands of dollars in bounties on their heads. If they show themselves, Hung Tai won't even need to lift a finger; someone will take care of them and claim the reward.

For a gang leader, a living enemy is far more gratifying than a dead one coming to his door.

Hearing Chen Yao's words, Chen Fan roughly understood what dirty work Big B had gotten his hands on, which was pointing directly to another source of conflict: his ass!

Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect Chan Ho-nam and his gang to have another chance to become famous so soon.

Unfortunately, this kind of name isn't easy to come up with.

Successfully securing a position would certainly grant you a permanent job, but it would also make you a prime target for other organizations, forcing you to constantly be wary of others using you for fame.

After all, there's only one shortcut to becoming a big shot in this world: hire a scoundrel with a bigger reputation than yourself.

Taking down the leader of the rival gang, Zha Zhi, is a much more prestigious achievement than defeating the rival gang leader, Zha Zhi.

The Causeway Bay Five Rats have truly suffered many misfortunes!

Chen Fan felt no guilt whatsoever; on the contrary, he was very happy.

Big B struggled for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word.

Chen Yao shook his head and rubbed his forehead. People like Da B are just too proud to admit they can't think of anything. They're not afraid of hurting themselves by forcing themselves to think.

"Ah Fan, you also have a grudge against Hung Tai. How do you think Hung Hing should settle this mess?" Chiang Tin-sang suddenly asked.

He wanted to see what Chen Fan was really capable of.

Chen Fan looked at Jiang Tiansheng with a blank expression. "Mr. Jiang, do you want me to give you some advice?"

"Hmm." Jiang Tiansheng nodded: "Tell me about it. Anyway, you don't need to carry out this task."

"Mr. Jiang, is he capable?"

Big B couldn't help but ask a question.

Da Yu said quietly, "At least they're better than your subordinates."

Big B: "..."

"Mr. Jiang, there are only two ways to resolve this matter."

Chen Fan held up two fingers and then explained:

"To address the immediate issue, we should hand over the person who escalated the conflict. However, Brother B would definitely not agree to that. The reputation of discarding someone after they've served their purpose would also be bad for Hung Hing. After all, Chan Ho-nam and the others are doing this for the future of the triad."

"To address the root cause, eliminate the person who created the problem. If that doesn't solve the problem, then deal with the person to prevent future troubles. However, this approach is very difficult."

Chen Yao smiled and asked, "How do you plan to proceed with the second option?"

"There are many ways to lure the snake out of its hole, lure the tiger away from the mountain, take advantage of the situation, or use someone else to do the dirty work... It mainly depends on what Brother B and his team choose."

Big B, as if seeing a savior, hurriedly asked, "Handsome, can you be more specific?"

"To lure the snake out of its hole, we need someone to act as bait to draw Chen Mei out. Brother B, find someone to use the excuse of capturing Chen Haonan and his gang to ask Chen Mei to go to a certain place for a face-to-face transaction. We can make a small profit of several hundred thousand by killing him."

"Or spread false information to divert most of Hung Tai's men to plunder people, and then Chan Ho-nam and his gang would take advantage of the situation to kill Chan Mei."

"It's even simpler to use someone else to do the dirty work. We're all in the underworld in Hong Kong, and everyone knows how to find dirt on others. As long as we expose the dirty deeds that Chen Mei has done to the police, the evidence will be conclusive, and Chen Mei's only fate will be Stanley. Once he's in Stanley, we won't even need to lift a finger; someone will naturally fabricate a story about this old bastard."

"If you're willing to spend the money, Brother B, it's not like you can't use a hidden bribe to settle things with Chen Mei."

The ideas Chen Fan gave were all things that anyone could come up with with a little thought.

Those who are brainless are another matter.

Anyway, he didn't think the Causeway Bay Five Rats could accomplish this.

"Isn't using someone else to do your dirty work just like wearing red shoes?"

Big B despised this method from the bottom of his heart.

Matters of the martial world should be settled within the martial world; that's the rule!

Chen Fan glanced at him and chuckled, "Hong Kong isn't just about the cops. Brother B, if you can mobilize other gangs to treat Hung Tai like roast pork, that's also using someone else to do your dirty work."

The methods chosen are simply different, but I must remind you that, apart from using someone else to do the dirty work, all other methods inevitably involve one problem: using firearms!

"this……"

Big B couldn't help but look at Jiang Tiansheng.

Using firearms means using guns, and gang members don't use them unless absolutely necessary. If they do, they'll be closely watched by the police.

"Ah B, A Fan has already given you the solution. Go back and discuss it with your men, then get the information from A Yao. You can handle the firearms yourself."

"I have only one request: leave no future problems!"

Jiang Tiansheng's voice was icy.

Big B has already disappointed him once; if it happens again, he'll have to reconsider whether he should hand over Causeway Bay to this guy.

Big B's expression hardened, and he solemnly promised, "Mr. Jiang, rest assured, I will personally oversee Anan to ensure things are handled properly."

"As long as he can do it, my previous promise still stands. There will be two incense altars for the Tsai Ing-wen ceremony this year. He won't be able to make it in a couple of days, but there will be another one in the second half of the year. Don't let me down again."

"clear!"

Big B was overjoyed.

Although it's unclear why an extra training session was held this year as an exception, who would refuse to have an extra "red pole" in their gang?
