……

It was nearly midnight when Zhuang Jiajun came out of the villa on the hillside.

He got into his Mercedes, without a driver or bodyguard, and drove off into the night alone.

at the same time.

At Dong Tianbao's home in Kwai Tsing.

"Master Bao, the third young master of the Zhuang family has invited me, Lao Wan, and Shui Fang to meet. Should I go or not?"

During the phone call, Da Dong respectfully reported to Dong Tianbao.

"Why not see him? But you don't need to show up. Just send Crow. Why not take the money that's offered to you? Tell Crow to open his mouth wider."

"Understood, I'll contact Brother Tianxiong right away."

After hanging up the phone, Dong Tianbao thought to himself, "That old man is really troublesome... but that's exactly what I wanted."

……

After half an hour.

Inside a seafood stall in Yuen Long.

Yuanji Food Stall was packed with people, but they weren't customers; they were thugs from Lao Wan, Shui Fang, and Dongxing.

In the innermost large private room, Crow said with a disgruntled look, "Wow, Big Water Tap is something else, making the three of us wait for him."

"Why are you here, Crow? Where's Da Dong?" Gao Laofa from the water room shook his head and asked with a smile, without replying.

Although Ruan Ruonan was the head of Lao Wan's household, her seniority was evident, so she didn't say much, just listened quietly and poured tea for the two of them from time to time.

"You all know that Da Dong is keeping watch in the rear. Dong Tianbao, that bastard, has been causing trouble outside every day lately. Who knows if he'll suddenly lose his mind and attack Yuen Long." Crow slammed his fist on the table and cursed.

"Hehe, in all of Hong Kong, only Tung Hing and Hung Hing are at odds, so we really need to be careful."

Now that Dong Tianbao has gained considerable power and has cleared his name, he abandoned his well-established water tap business and suddenly expanded outwards, causing widespread panic among the bigwigs of Hong Kong's triads... I don't know what he was thinking."

Gao Laofa chuckled, then made a helpless remark.

"Exactly! People say I'm crazy like a crow, but I think Dong Tianbao is even crazier than me..."

"Cough cough!!!"

Just as Crow was cursing, Big Head (Billy Chow) and Ah Jie (Fan Siu Wong) behind him coughed violently at the same time.

The crow was stunned, its heart pounding. "Damn, I think I overdid it! Will these two tell on me to Master Bao?"

Just as he was lost in thought about how to salvage the situation, Zhuang Jiajun walked in, looking apologetic, and cupped his hands in greeting to the three of them: "Sorry everyone, we were stuck in traffic. We've kept you waiting."

"Mr. Zhuang, you're too kind. We arrived early." Tall Lao Fa was quite eloquent, standing up and greeting him with a smile.

Ruan Ruonan simply stood up and nodded.

"Tch, stuck in traffic in the middle of the night? Showing off is fine, but you're so hypocritical!" Crow sat there motionless, rolling his eyes and smoking.

Zhuang Jiajun wasn't annoyed. After sitting down, he took out three checks from his pocket and pushed them in front of the three men: "It's my fault, it's my fault. Consider this million as compensation for the three big shots."

Ruan Ruonan glanced at the check, then pushed it back: "I can't accept a reward without doing anything in return. It's getting late, let's get down to business!"

Gao Laofa also pushed it back, "Miss Ruan is right, we really did arrive a bit early."

The crow picked up the check, glanced at it, and its eyes suddenly lit up. It then stuffed the check into its pocket: "That's more befitting of your status, Mr. Zhuang! Come on, you must be tired from driving! Have some water..."

Zhuang Jiajun smiled, took the teacup and took a sip. "The eldest son of the Li family was kidnapped last night. My brother-in-law suspects Dong Tianbao was responsible."

"Dong Tianbao?" Crow scoffed. "Mr. Zhuang, is your brother-in-law out of his mind? Dong Tianbao's net worth is more than two billion a year just from the Tianbao Group. Why would he need to kidnap someone?"

Old Gao twirled the walnut in his hand twice, then slowly said, "Crow, he's right. Isn't there some misunderstanding?"

Zhuang Jiajun nodded: "So it's suspicion. Money isn't a problem. As long as we find evidence or rescue the person, name your price."

Old Gao placed the walnuts on the table and looked at Zhuang Jiajun: "Mr. Zhuang, what has enabled Shuifang to gain a foothold in Hong Kong in just two years?"

Zhuang Jiajun was taken aback.

"It's thanks to Mr. Dong leaving us a way out," Uncle Gold Tooth said, emphasizing each word. "If we took your job, we'd be going against Mr. Dong. We could handle your brother-in-law's two billion, but we might not live to spend it."

The private room was silent for a few seconds.

Ruan Ruonan nodded in agreement.

The crow suddenly laughed: "Brother Gao, you're getting old, and your courage has waned. No matter how powerful Dong Tianbao is, he can't eat all the food in Hong Kong."

"Dongxing will take this case, but let me state in advance that Dongxing is only looking for people and evidence. The price is 300 million. If it comes to a full-scale war, that's not out of the question. We'll add another 300 million for resettlement, bail, and medical expenses."

"Money is no problem. Here's a HSBC promissory note for 100 million. Once we find the person or the evidence, we'll settle the rest with you immediately. We'll talk about the full-scale war later." Zhuang Jiajun didn't even think twice before pulling out a promissory note for 100 million and pushing it in front of Crow.

Gao Laofa and Ruan Ruonan stood up, looking at the crow as if it were a fool. You need to be alive to spend the money!

"Mr. Zhuang, since Dongxing has taken on this job, we'll take our leave. We haven't met tonight." Gao Laofa said and walked out of the private room.

Ruan Ruonan nodded and followed her out.

"A bunch of cowards, Mr. Zhuang, how about we have some drinks? This seafood porridge is quite good," Crow asked with a fawning smile.

"No, you eat." Zhuang Jiajun waved his hand, then stood up to leave, but suddenly stopped and turned around, saying, "Time is of the essence. Find evidence or the person within two days."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhuang. Since I've taken your money, I'll definitely do my job. However, since I couldn't find the person or the evidence with Dong Tianbao, this 100 million deposit is a service fee and won't be refunded," Crow said seriously, abandoning his fawning attitude.

"Of course!" Zhuang Jiajun left with those two words and then departed from the food stall.

The crow patted its pocket with a laugh, looking like a complete idiot.

"Wuhu, Bao Ye is really smart. He made a hundred million without doing anything, haha..."

"Big Head, Ah Jie, let's go somewhere else. I'll take you guys for a ride."

Big Head and A-Jie smiled and followed Crow on either side. After leaving the food stall, the three of them got into a Hummer and disappeared down the street.

In the car, Crow lit a cigarette, squinting at the streetlights rushing past the window: "Ah Jie, what do you think about me discussing with Master Bao, getting him to reveal some clues, and then getting the remaining two hundred million?"

Then, by stirring things up, pretending to start a full-scale war, and then getting him to pay another 300 million, do you think Mr. Bao would agree?

Ah Jie, in the passenger seat, turned around and said with a smile, "Brother Crow, this 100 million is your appearance fee. You and Brother Dong can split it however you like. Don't even think about the rest. If you dare to dream, Master Bao will make you go down and sell salted duck eggs with camels..."

The crow suddenly shivered, realizing it had gotten a little carried away...
