Chapter 150 Chen Yao: I propose that Brother Dong be the leader
After Cheng Yaodong finished speaking, Ma Wangjian swallowed hard.
Looking around again, Cheng Yaodong shrugged and said.
"So the matter is very simple. I recruited He Liansheng into Hongxing. This matter has nothing to do with He Liansheng killing the prince. To He Liansheng, the prince is an enemy and deserves to be killed. If the prince could discuss with us before attacking He Liansheng, I would naturally tell him my plan."
"But he didn't do that, so I had no way to control what happened. The result was that the prince died, which was naturally not a good thing for us in Hongxing. But everyone has witnessed the strength of He Liansheng. Now that He Liansheng has been incorporated into Hongxing, it is a great thing for Hongxing."
After saying that, Cheng Yaodong looked at Uncle K and said with a smile.
"Uncle K, I wonder if you're satisfied with my explanation. I think, now that I've explained it so clearly, you guys shouldn't misunderstand that the prince's death is related to me, right?"
"Satisfied! Very good, Heliansheng is very powerful. Joining Hongxing not only helps us regain our reputation, but also improves our strength. This is a good thing. A good thing, haha."
Uncle K laughed dryly twice and said nothing more.
Cheng Yaodong smiled with satisfaction, then looked at Ma Wangjian and others.
"In that case, I think what Ma Wangjian just asked me to do, the so-called explanation to everyone, should be considered a perfect explanation. Then let's talk about other things. I, Cheng Yaodong, am the boss of Yau Ma Tei and the second marshal of the Hongxing Army. My status and position, if not higher than everyone here, is at least not lower, right?"
"What words did Ma Wangjian mention just now? He said I was a traitor and also mentioned the issue of Hongxing's reputation. I think that's quite interesting.
The Hongxing gang has indeed grown stronger recently, and everyone's face is becoming more and more valuable. Among the five major gangs, the Chaozhou Gang, although the largest in number, is a loose group. It is still a great deterrent to smaller gangs, but it poses no threat to the other four gangs.
Of the remaining four major gangs, Liansheng has already been merged into Hongxing. Of the remaining Tung Sing and the Number Gang, Hongxing has already surpassed Tung Sing and is even heading towards becoming the leading gang in Hong Kong. But I'm not sure if you've forgotten something?
The reason why Hongxing has undergone such a big change seems to be related to several things, and these things seem to be related to me, Cheng Yaodong. I remember that when I was released from prison, among the five major gangs, except for the Chaozhou Gang, Hongxing was at the bottom, right?
If it weren't for the internal strife with Lian Sheng, Hong Xing wouldn't even be as good as Lian Sheng. Back then, when Chen Haonan led his men to assassinate Ba Bi, a mere Ba Bi led his men to wipe out all of Hong Xing's Causeway Bay locations. Everyone still remembers these events, right? What did you, Ma Wang Jian, do back then?
It was me, Cheng Yaodong, who established a presence in Yau Ma Tei and expanded the Hongxing clan into thirteen factions. When I arrived in Yau Ma Tei and was warned by Han Chen to get out within three days, what were you, Ma Wangjian, doing? What? I'm not a Hongxing brother? Aren't you embarrassed to see a Hongxing brother being threatened?
That's right, back then I was just a nobody, how could you even look at me straight in the eye? And after I killed Han Chen and Ba Bi, became the boss of Yau Ma Tei, and was at loggerheads with Wo Luen Sheng, what did you, Ma Wang Jian, do?
What did you, Ma Wangjian, do when the Heliansheng, Dongxing, and Changle gangs were surrounding me? Did you ever consider the Hongxing clan's reputation? At that time, I was already the leader, your equal. Why didn't you call me your brother?
Well, I luckily broke through and in one fell swoop, I defeated Wo Luen Sheng. It was me, Cheng Yaodong, who made Yau Ma Tei a clean slate. It was me, Cheng Yaodong, who made Mong Kok a clean slate. It was me, Cheng Yaodong, who faced the Five Tigers of Eastern Stars alone. It was me, Cheng Yaodong, who made Causeway Bay a clean slate.
In just six months, Hongxing has gone from being the last of the five major gangs to now being able to face the Number Gang head-on. I won't say this is all my own achievement; Liang Kun, Shisan Mei, Han Bin, Liang Ma, and Da Fei all helped me and Hongxing. But who are you, Ma Wang Jian?
I'm the reason Hongxing is so powerful now. Now that Hongxing is so powerful, you're talking to me about face? I gave you face, and you're talking to me about your face? Without Hongxing, without brains, you'd be hacked to death anytime you leave this room.
You say I'm a traitor, but what about you? I have a dog, and it knows how to wag its tail at me. Besides plotting against me every day, what have you ever done for Hongxing? Do you think I don't know about your trip to Taiguo? What? You want to go to Taiguo and find Jiang Tianyang to deal with me?
There are some things you can do, and as long as you don't go too far, I'll turn a blind eye and let it go. I'm giving you face, just so you can tell me I'm a traitor in front of the headquarters?"
As he spoke, Cheng Yaodong grabbed Ma Wangjian's hair again and looked straight at him.
"Ma Wangjian, do you think I would be very angry if you treated me like this?"
Ma Wangjian looked at Cheng Yaodong in horror. He had no doubt that Cheng Yaodong would kill him at any time.
Moreover, when Cheng Yaodong mentioned the affairs of Taiguo, all the bosses who had been to Taiguo lowered their heads and dared not look Cheng Yaodong in the eye.
"Adong... Dong brother, I... I was wrong! I was a mean person and shouldn't have said that to you... Please forgive me..."
Ma Wangjian was shaking all over and his speech was not very clear.
Everyone looked at Cheng Yaodong, but most people chose to watch coldly.
Even the beautiful mother who finally joined Cheng Yaodong's camp looked at Ma Wangjian coldly.
"Brother Dong, calm down, I have something to say."
When the scene was dead silent, Chen Yao took the initiative to speak.
Cheng Yaodong looked at Chen Yao with interest, but his hand did not let go of Ma Wangjian.
"Oh? As our Hongxing's top think tank, if you have anything to say, I'm all ears."
Chen Yao let out a long breath and then said.
"Brother Dong, we know we were wrong. We have indeed been to Taiguo, especially me, I have been there three times. We did want to invite Jiang Tianyang back to Hong Kong Island to take charge of the overall situation. However, we have no intention of dealing with you. Everyone knows that because of you, Brother Dong, Hongxing is now becoming more and more powerful.
Because of this, Hung Hing will receive even more attention. Therefore, I believe Hung Hing cannot remain leaderless for a day. It was my suggestion to go to Taiguo. The five of us, Baki, Prince, Ma Wangjian, and Dayu, went to Taiguo together. My original intention was simply to ensure that Hung Hing had a suitable leader.
Mr. Jiang Tianyang has his own business in Tai Kwok and is doing well. As a member of the Jiang family, I think he's a very suitable person to take this position. If I have any personal motives, it's probably because I'm worried about retaliation from Brother Dong. As everyone knows, when Jiang Tiansheng was the leader of the Hongxing gang, I was always close to him.
Before Jiang Tiansheng left Hong Kong, he also wanted me to temporarily take over the leadership position. Because of what Jiang Tiansheng did to you, Dong Ge, I was very worried that Dong Ge would vent his anger on me. So I wanted to ask Jiang Tianyang from Taiguo to return to Hong Kong Island and re-lead Hongxing. This was also a small way for me to protect myself.
But I need to reiterate: neither I, Ma Wang Jian Ji Ge, nor Dayu intend to harm you. Don't worry, Mr. Chiang has no interest in Hong Kong's social organizations. Even after I've been to Taikoo three times, he hasn't considered returning to take charge of Hung Hing.
When I say I was wrong, I don't mean I was wrong to go to Taiguo. I was wrong to think Dong Ge would retaliate against me. And I was wrong to go out and look for a new leader. I've seriously considered what you just said, Dong Ge.
I think, Brother Dong, you're the perfect candidate to be the leader. And we actually went to Taiguo to ask Jiang Tianyang to be the leader of Hongxing. That's a complete mistake. Brother Dong, Ma Wangjian just spoke too quickly. He's not very smart, so don't bother with him.
The incident with Prince Edward was indeed his own fault. At the headquarters meeting, we all agreed that he shouldn't have touched Wo Luen Shing. Now that he's suffering the consequences, no one else is to blame. Fortunately, Wo Luen Shing can now be incorporated into our Hung Hing, immediately replenishing and even strengthening our territory and manpower in Tsim Sha Tsui.
So, there's nothing more to say about this matter. I, Chen Yao, as the leader of the White Paper Fan Society in Sai Wan, now formally propose that Brother Dong take on the role of leader of the Hongxing faction. Regardless of qualifications, achievements, and abilities, Brother Dong is fully qualified for this position.
Furthermore, I suggest that Hung Hing open a fourteenth branch, with Gao Jin as the leader of Kowloon Tong. I believe that no one would object to this proposal of mine, right? Uncle K, what do you think?
After Chen Yao finished speaking, he handed the conversation over to Uncle K.
Uncle K was stunned, then quickly nodded and said.
"That's right, A-Dong. I think you're the most suitable person to be the leader of Hung Hing. I believe no one here would object. How about today, while everyone is here? We can combine the three major celebrations of Hung Hing: the merger of He Liansheng into Hung Hing, the establishment of Hung Hing's flag in Kowloon Tong as its fourteenth branch, and your promotion to the leader. A-Dong, what do you think?"
Cheng Yaodong looked at Chen Yao in surprise. He was indeed the number one white paper fan in Hongxing. If he hadn't known that Chen Yao and Jiang Tiansheng had been plotting against him, and were even willing to serve as dogs for the Japanese to kill him, he would have almost believed what Chen Yao said.
Slowly letting go of the Ma Wangjian in his hand, Cheng Yaodong looked around and said with a smile.
"I want to be the leader? Am I qualified?"
"Adong! If you're not qualified, then no one else is. I think what Ayao said is very good. I have indeed been to Taiguo, but we have no intention of targeting you. Now that I think about it, even if Jiang Tianyang came to Hong Kong Island, it would not be as suitable for Adong to be the leader. Adong, I will be the first to support you to be the leader."
Seeing this, Bucky hurriedly said.
"Yes, yes! I also agree that Brother Dong should be the leader. Today, Hongxing has three good things going for it, and now he's taking up his new position. We should celebrate tonight. I believe that under Brother Dong's leadership, Hongxing will definitely get better and better. Brother Dong, just agree! You are the only one qualified to be the leader of Hongxing."
Dayu also quickly agreed.
"Yes... yes, Dong Ge. I agree too. Dong Ge, you will be the leader. I, Ma Wang Jian, may not be very smart, but now I understand. Dong Ge, I support you being the leader! I support you!"
Ma Wangjian said incoherently.
Cheng Yaodong looked at the four people and a smile appeared on his face.
Ma Wangjian and Chen Yao, these two people are definitely going to die.
Chen Yao only has six days left to live. As for Ma Wangjian, I can just find an excuse to kill him later.
As for Buggy and Dayu, how long they have left to live depends on whether they can behave like human beings.
"Okay, since everyone thinks so highly of me, I'll be the leader, albeit with great reluctance. But I've got this: if one day, you find someone better to be the leader, I, Cheng Yaodong, will step aside at any time."
"Impossible! No one is more suitable to be the leader than you, Adong!"
"If anyone dares to compete with Brother Dong for the leading position, I, Dayu, will be the first to stop him!"
"Brother Dong, just stay focused on being the leader. I believe Hongxing will get better and better."
Inside the main hall, there was a lot of flattery, but it was mainly the voices of Chen Yao and the other three.
"Uncle K, since everyone is so happy, I also have something to say."
Seeing that the voice had dropped a little, Liang Kun looked at Thirteenth Sister and said.
Uncle K looked at Liang Kun and nodded.
"A Kun, if you have anything to say, tell me."
"Uncle K, brothers. Like everyone else, I'm very happy to see Ah Tung as the leader of Hung Hing. Furthermore, I'm also very relieved. Therefore, I'm ready to step down as the boss of Mong Kok and hand over my territory to Ah Tung's management."
"Me too."
Thirteenth Sister also echoed.
"I also want to bring Bowl Lane under Ah Tung's control. That way, Mong Kok will be completely Ah Tung's territory. Ah Tung can then find a suitable leader from among his own people to be the boss of Mong Kok. The two gangs in Mong Kok will become one, and with the new gang in Kowloon Tong, the Hung Hing gang will still have thirteen gangs."
"this..."
Uncle K was stunned after hearing this, and then looked at Cheng Yaodong.
"Adong, what do you mean..."
Although Cheng Yaodong already knew what the two were thinking, he was still touched when he heard what they said.
Since he was released from Stanley Prison, Leung Kwan and Thirteenth Sister have always stood firmly by his side.
Cheng Yaodong shrugged, then looked at Uncle K and said.
"Uncle K, I haven't taken the position of leader yet, but I think I can make some suggestions about the gang as the leader."
"Of course." Uncle K said with a smile.
Cheng Yaodong nodded, then looked around and said.
"I agree to take over Thirteenth Sister and Liang Kun's territory. However, Liang Kun and Thirteenth Sister have been in Hongxing for so many years and have made great contributions. I propose that Thirteenth Sister and Liang Kun jointly serve as the second marshal."
