Hong Kong variety show: I wanted to be a lawyer, but I became a big shot.

Time flew by, and it was soon midnight that night.

The bar street in Mong Kok is bustling with lights, noise, and people having a blast.

Deafening music blared from the entrances of various bars, and men and women laughed and shouted freely in the street.

Lin Bei's headquarters were located in the central area of ​​Portland Street, and the territory he controlled accounted for about one-third of the business on the street.

He had a subordinate nicknamed "Chatterbox" Lao Sijiu, whose daughter was named Cui Xiaoxiao, also known as Thirteen Sister.

Thirteen Sister is shrewd and capable. She has been helping Lin Bei manage these nightclubs. Whether it's managing accounts, personnel, or dealing with both the legitimate and criminal worlds, she has handled everything in an orderly manner.

The income here is also one of Linbei's main sources of income.

"Brother Bei, didn't we hear that Axe Jun from Xinji is bringing his men to cause trouble for our place tonight?"

"How come you still have the leisure to be here, surrounded by women, drinking and enjoying yourself?"

Thirteen Sister looked at Lin Bei, who was sitting in the middle of the private room sofa, with a hot, scantily clad hostess on each side, with a puzzled expression.

"snort."

Lin Bei let out a soft hum through his nose, comfortably resting his head on the soft chest of the long, wavy-haired beauty next to him, and even rubbing against her.

"If you could easily read my mind, what would be the point of my life?"

"I might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes."

"Hmm, this brain cushion is nice, it's soft and comfortable."

After he finished speaking, he reached out and lightly pinched the pair of breasts of the wavy-haired beauty, which made her giggle.

Thirteen Sister's lips twitched slightly as she looked at Lin Bei's dissolute behavior.

That's ridiculous!

"Brother Bei, it's not that we juniors are worrying for no reason."

Thirteen Sister's tone carried a genuine sense of worry.

"Now that Brother Kun is in jail, we've fought quite a few battles with other forces in the past two months to defend our territory."

"If this fighting continues indefinitely, people will be filled with anxiety, and business will only become more and more difficult."

Lin Bei understood what Thirteen Sister meant. He closed his eyes and asked casually.

"Is it possible that Hua Fu from the other side is pulling strings behind the scenes and stealing our business?"

Thirteen Sister nodded, leaned closer, and lowered her voice.

"Recently, many of our regular customers have been lured away by people from their side."

"And his place even shamelessly offered a 'buy one get one half price' deal."

"Damn it, how could that bastard come up with such a despicable trick as having his girls refill the customers' penises!"

Just thinking about it made Thirteen Sister so angry that her teeth itched and her fists clenched tightly.

This is no longer doing business; this is treating the girls under their control like cheap sex toys. How can they treat people like this, without any regard for human beings?

Lin Bei slowly opened his eyes, which had been closed, a crack in them.

"Spread the word that starting today, all the girls in our establishment will have their wages and bonuses increased by ten percent."

"In addition, we need to recruit another batch of high-quality new employees."

"Remember, our hiring standard is 'better to have none than to hire the wrong people!'"

"I only want high-quality beauties who are truly attractive, resourceful, and able to retain customers. I don't want those ugly, unattractive women who come to fill the seats and ruin my establishment's reputation!"

Upon hearing this, Thirteen Sister felt her head spin, and her temples throbbed.

"Brother Bei, shouldn't we be trying to save money and build up our strength at this time?"

"Why are they actually giving the girls a raise and spending money to hire new employees?"

"Isn't this just throwing money away?"

Lin Bei opened his mouth and precisely ate a peeled, chilled grape handed to him by the wavy-haired beauty next to him; the juice burst in his mouth.

"I have a secret weapon that no one else has."

"After you finish what I asked you to do tomorrow, come with me to the New Territories."

"Three days from now, I'm going to make our place the hottest, most unforgettable money-spending den on the entire Hong Kong Island!"

"Let the United Flower Fairy have nowhere to cry!"

Seeing Lin Bei speak with such certainty and confidence, Thirteen Sister, though still filled with doubt, said no more.

She knew that if Brother Bei dared to say that, he must have his reasons.

……

Mong Kok, Shanghai Street.

Behind Sha Qiang stood a dark mass of over a hundred thugs, each wielding a gleaming machete and an iron pipe or baseball bat, their expressions tense and ready for battle.

The cool night breeze blew by, but it couldn't dispel the tense, almost explosive atmosphere in the air.

Just then, the ringtone of his mobile phone suddenly went off, sounding particularly jarring in the quiet street.

"Feed. Which side?"

Sha Qiang answered the phone and asked in a gruff voice.

"What? The war has already broken out in Causeway Bay?"

His voice suddenly rose, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.

He quickly hung up the phone, his fingers flying across the dial number, and hurriedly dialed Lin Bei.

"Brother Bei, there's a fight breaking out in Causeway Bay, and it's quite a commotion!"

"I'm still keeping watch on Shanghai Street. That bastard Axe Jun, I haven't even seen a ghost of him yet."

"I suspect... could this be a smokescreen, a diversionary tactic?"

Lin Bei hesitated for a moment on the other end of the phone, then picked up the wine glass on the table, took a big gulp of wine, and let the cold liquid slide down his throat.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he remembered something, causing his expression to change drastically.

"Oh no!"

"Take your men immediately and get to Nathan Road as quickly as possible to provide support!"

"That bastard Axe Jun, from the very beginning, his plan was never some kind of 'besieging Wei to rescue Zhao' strategy!"

"He wants to directly connect this major traffic artery between Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui!"

"Controlling Nathan Road is like having our throats in your hands!"

"Alright! I'll take the brothers over there right away!"

Upon hearing this, Sha Qiang instantly realized the seriousness of the situation, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

As soon as Sha Qiang finished speaking, Lin Bei hung up the phone.

He suddenly stood up from the sofa, quickly put on his coat, grabbed his car keys and cell phone from the table, and prepared to leave.

"Thirteenth Sister, I'll leave forty men to guard this side of Portland Street, just in case anything goes wrong."

"If anything happens here, don't hesitate to call me immediately!"

"Okay, Brother Bei!"

Thirteen Sister nodded quickly in agreement, her expression becoming serious.

She quickly followed him, escorting Lin Bei to the bar entrance. Watching his car taillights disappear into the night, her heart pounded with anxiety, unable to calm down for a long time.
