Chapter 195: Liang Kun's Mother's Birthday Party
Chapter 195: Liang Kun's Mother's Birthday Party
Afterwards, Chen Yao was seriously injured, Chui Shui Ji and Liang Ma ran away, and then Hongxing was in chaos.
Later, other gangs took advantage of the situation and Hongxing fought against each other repeatedly. In the end, not only did they not lose any territory, but they also gained a lot. Although this matter had little to do with Liang Kun, as the leader of Hongxing, he must be credited with some of the credit.
What's even more outrageous is that he used his territory in Causeway Bay to win over Wuliang, used his territory in Sai Wan to win over Han Bin, and supported Da Fei, making Da Fei the boss.
Through this series of operations, Liang Kun actually gained a firm foothold in the society and directly held five votes in his hand. If he chooses another leader of Yau Ma Tei, Liang Kun will then have six votes. If he replaces Chen Yao, the white paper fan, then Liang Kun will have seven votes.
If at that time, Jiang Tiansheng still wants to use election to remove Liang Kun, it will be almost impossible. Liang Kun might even be able to win the election and serve as the leader for several terms.
These things have made Jiang Tiansheng anxious, so when Lin Huaile asked him to cooperate, Jiang Tiansheng agreed directly.
But Liang Kun, who has already firmly established himself as the leader and the boss, is not easy to deal with. If you can't kill him with one strike, if you give Liang Kun any chance, then you will be in big trouble.
In view of this situation, Jiang Tiansheng and Lin Huaile set up a retreat-to-advance strategy for Liang Kun.
Under the influence of Jiang Tiansheng, Prince and Liang Ma were the first to give in to Liang Kun. With these two taking the lead, the others did not want to be the first to take the blame and had to give in to Liang Kun. Now all the territories of Hongxing are full of drugs.
Liang Kun's monthly sales increased exponentially, and while he was raking in the cash, others didn't benefit much. Some were even targeted by the police due to Liang Kun's followers. In just over two weeks, many people were already complaining.
Lin Huaile was also busy. He asked people to promote Liang Kun desperately, saying that Hung Hing was the number one gang in Hong Kong, Liang Kun was the overlord of the Hong Kong underworld, and Liang Kun was the number one drug lord in Hong Kong.
In less than a month, Liang Kun became famous in Hong Kong, but it was not a good reputation, but a bad reputation.
After signing an agreement with the foreigners in their hometown in the north and confirming the time for their return, Hong Kong has been cracking down on criminal gangs and drug trafficking gangs. Given this situation, with Liang Kun having such a big reputation, how could the police let him go?
Anyway, according to the information Lu Yongqiang got, the police have set up a special task force to specifically investigate Liang Kun.
Of course, drug trafficking cases are inherently difficult to collect evidence. The police basically cannot find direct evidence of Liang Kun's drug trafficking in a short period of time. If they want to catch Liang Kun, it is unknown how long it will take just relying on the police.
But as long as there is cooperation between inside and outside, and someone cooperates with the police, the situation will be completely different.
In less than a month, Liang Kun's shipments increased several times, so mistakes were inevitable, which gave Lin Huaile and Jiang Tiansheng an opportunity.
Jiang Tiansheng had already arranged someone around Liang Kun, and this person was Liang Kun's confidant. When Liang Kun was in a panic, not to mention getting conclusive evidence of Liang Kun's crime, he only needed to find out Liang Kun's warehouse and shipping channels. Not to mention finding out all of it, he only needed to find out half of the situation, and then hand the evidence to the police, and let the police take action against Liang Kun. This would be enough to cause Liang Kun serious damage.
As long as Liang Kun's power is greatly reduced and he no longer has the power he had before, he can then find a way to set up a plan to kill Liang Kun. As long as Liang Kun is dead, Jiang Tiansheng can come out to clean up the mess.
If Liang Kun could die at the hands of the police and be charged with crimes such as resisting arrest and drug trafficking, it would be more beneficial to Jiang Tiansheng, as he could clean up the mess more easily.
Because Liang Kun was the leader and the boss, if the police had solid evidence of Liang Kun's crimes, then Liang Kun would be the criminal, and everyone in Hongxing would be implicated. Especially those leaders, who would become the targets of severe crackdowns by the police.
Of course, the police would not arrest all the members of Hongxing just because of Liang Kun. They would only send people to keep an eye on the bosses of Hongxing to make life a little more difficult for everyone.
At this time, Hung Hing needs someone to stand up and talk to the police. Not to say that the police will let bygones be bygones, but at least they should show leniency and not push too hard.
After all, Hung Hing is a large gang of tens of thousands of people. These tens of thousands of people are equivalent to tens of thousands of families in Hong Kong. If the police do not want to cause many unnecessary vicious cases, they need someone from Hung Hing to stand up and stabilize the situation as soon as possible.
Considering the needs of the police and the society itself, Jiang Tiansheng is the candidate needed by both sides.
After all, Jiang Tiansheng has never advocated drug trafficking by Hongxing people, which makes many police officers have a good impression of Jiang Tiansheng. If he becomes the leader of Hongxing again, at least the police officers will be happy to see it happen.
The society also needs a leader who will not offend the police too much. If Jiang Tiansheng can become the leader again, he can completely ease the tension between the society and the police.
In Lu Yongqiang's opinion, the plan set by Jiang Tiansheng and Lin Huaile has basically been completed. Now is the best time for the two to take action. If they don't act now, and wait for Liang Kun to react, by which time Liang Kun will be prepared, they will probably miss the opportunity.
Moreover, in Lu Yongqiang's opinion, Liang Kun is basically like meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others, with no hope of a comeback.
It was because he thought Jiang Tiansheng and the others were going to take action, and Liang Kun had no hope of turning the tables, that Lu Yongqiang was not prepared to spend money on Liang Kun. He even wanted to use a fake birthday gift.
…………
Time flies and it is the day of Liang Kun's mother's birthday. For this day, Liang Kun booked a restaurant early and spread the news long ago.
Lu Yongqiang felt that Jiang Tiansheng and Lin Huaile were very likely to take action on this day, so he did not bring Dong Si or Gangsheng to the birthday party, but only brought Dadong alone.
Liang Kun brought people to welcome guests at the hotel entrance. Lu Yongqiang and Dadong got out of the car at the hotel entrance. Dadong was holding a golden Buddha statue in his hand. In order to prevent someone from noticing that there was something wrong with the Buddha statue, Lu Yongqiang specially covered the Buddha statue with a glass cover.
Looking at the Buddha statue in Dadong's arms, Liangkun's eyes sparkled. He put his arm around Lu Yongqiang's shoulders and whispered, "Qiangzi, I'm really sorry for the trouble you've caused me." He glanced at the statue again and asked, "This statue must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Lu Yongqiang took the Buddha statue from Dadong and handed it to Liangkun, muttering softly, "The main body of the Buddha statue is made of five kilograms of gold. This gold alone is worth six or seven hundred thousand. See those gems on the lotus seat below the Buddha statue? They are all precious rubies and agates. Just these dozen or so things cost me hundreds of thousands. Add to that the labor fee for the master craftsman, and the incense money for the master craftsman from Wanfo Temple to consecrate the Buddha statue. The total cost for the entire Buddha statue is almost two million."
Liang Kun took the Buddha statue in both hands and weighed it, feeling that it was quite heavy. He looked at it carefully and found that the shape of the statue was indeed beautiful, and the gems and agates on the lotus seat looked valuable.
Liang Kun smiled with satisfaction, handed the Buddha statue to his younger brother, then hugged Lu Yongqiang and said, "Good brother, that's very kind! You make me proud!"
Lu Yongqiang smiled and said, "Brother Kun, you have been so kind as to lend me the funds for turnover. As your younger brother, I cannot do the same. I must give Brother Kun face and make him proud."
As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Liang Kun smiled and said, "Qiangzi, you are really particular about your work! If you need money in the future, just tell me and I will lend it to you."
A few days ago, Lu Yongqiang thought that if Liang Kun was finished, his money would either be confiscated or given to Jiang Tiansheng. Instead of that, he might as well save himself some money, so he borrowed some money from Liang Kun.
Lu Yongqiang asked to borrow 50 million yuan at the time, but Liang Kun's money was basically tied up in the goods, and he could not come up with so much money in a short period of time. Finally, after much persuasion, Liang Kun agreed to lend Lu Yongqiang 20 million yuan.
Liang Kun is not very particular. He gives the monthly profit to Lu Yongqiang directly based on the ratio of nine out of 13, and the interest is compounded.
Although he claimed to have borrowed 20 million, Lu Yongqiang only received 18 million. A month later, Lu Yongqiang had to repay Liang Kun 26 million. If he couldn't pay it back, the interest would be compounded, and it would continue to rise. This was pure usury.
After chatting with Liang Kun for a few words, Lu Yongqiang saw that another guest had arrived, so he took Dadong into the hotel.
As the leader of Hongxing, all the bigwigs of Hongxing were very respectful and came to celebrate his mother's birthday.
In addition to the people from Hongxing, many people from other societies also came, including Lin Huaile and Huo Niu from Liansheng, Camel, Crow and Situ Haonan from Dongxing, the two brothers Lian Haolong from Zhongxinyi, Jiang Sheng and his son Jiang Zhangang, the leader of Xinji, Wang Bao from Shatin, and Ni Yongxiao from the Ni family.
In addition to the people from these big societies, many people from small societies also came, such as Wei Jixiang from Hongtai, Feihong from Changle, Jiang Tianying from Hongying, and dozens of other big and small bosses.
Although Luk Wing Keung was only a member of a Hongxing gang, he knew quite a few people. Since he entered the hotel, people had been trying to chat with him. Among them, Ni Yongxiao chatted with Luk Wing Keung the longest, for almost half an hour.
Although the two chatted for a long time, Ni Yongxiao's words were vague and confusing. After the conversation, Lu Yongqiang only understood one thing: Ni Yongxiao seemed to admire him very much and wanted to poach him to join Ni's.
Lu Yongqiang kept his distance from the Ni family and didn't want to deal with them at all. Even though the Ni family seemed to be developing very well now, many things were done according to Ni Yongxiao's whitewashing plan.
But it is not easy for the Ni family to whitewash themselves. Although the Ni family gave the channel for selling fans to Liang Kun, they have been doing legitimate business honestly in the past two years and have spent a lot of money on charity.
However, the four hall masters under the Ni family have a lot of criminal records with the police. The police just haven't found evidence to convict them yet, so they haven't touched them, but they will not let them go so easily.
Also, although the Ni family gave the channel to Liang Kun and did not touch fans themselves in the past two years, the relationship between the Ni family and the four hall masters is too deep. In the eyes of many people, the four hall masters are members of the Ni family. If the four hall masters commit a crime, the Ni family is committing a crime.
