Chapter 23: Raising the Flag
(I was wrong, I wrote the title!)
A group of people came out of the door in a mighty manner. Even though they were seriously injured, they struggled to get up.
This is an opportunity to get ahead, and they don't want to be left behind.
The van that brought them here was parked downstairs.
This minibus is also a legacy left by the original Shuang Lung Lam. There are 4 minibuses in total, specializing in the route from Tsuen Wan to Wan Chai.
Although there is a subway to go with it, it is a waste of time to stop and go along the way. Hong Kong people still prefer to take such minibuses when traveling.
This kind of line requires a specialized company to operate it and is a legal business.
No one can snatch it away or take it away.
In addition, it is becoming more and more difficult to apply for minibus routes. This is a business where you can make money on your own.
Fortunately, my mother is not involved in the business and only plays mahjong and buys bags all day long.
If you take this route as a trip, it will be enough to go to Paris, not to mention the Netherlands.
The two cars, filled with people, headed towards Tsuen Wan to meet Yuan Bao.
Yuan Bao, who had set off earlier, had already arrived in Tsuen Wan. He was sitting in a tea restaurant with a dozen of his friends, holding a straw in his mouth and looking at the bar opposite that had not yet opened.
"Yes, there are more than a dozen bars on this street. It's a good place for warm water." Yuan Bao's new little brother Viper said with satisfaction.
The young men Yuan Bao has recruited this time are all capable of fighting, but they just haven't been able to get ahead.
There are many such people in every prefix.
There are only so many roads and so much territory.
Even if you dare to fight hard, you may not be able to get ahead.
Without the support of a large water pipe, not only the guarantee fee for entering the embassy will not be paid, but also the medical expenses may need to be collected.
The days of fooling around on the field are not very comfortable. If you don't blackmail students, sometimes you will have trouble eating.
Even when I was extremely embarrassed, I had to take my younger brother to work part-time in a teahouse just to make ends meet.
Yuan Bao glanced at the time, then looked at the boss who was bowing his head and said with a smile: "Boss, who covers this street?".
Hearing this, the boss smiled bitterly.
When this group of people first entered the house, he felt something was wrong and took care of them personally.
It turned out that the big boss who looked after Tsuen Wan was gone, and the business in Tsuen Wan was in a mess. There were always gangsters coming to make trouble.
Each time the prefix is different, today it is Alphabet Gang, tomorrow it is Heliansheng, and the day after tomorrow it is United.
This month has just started, and the fees have been paid five times. If this continues, there will be no business at all.
It’s closed!
"It turned out to be Brother Long from Xinghe, but now I don't know which one it is."
"We have collected five or six times this month, under the banner of various prefixes, atomizing the door, we small businessmen do not dare to ask more questions!"
The boss told the truth, and then looked at Yuan Bao with a wry smile.
In fact, those who charge fees are not simply extortion, but also provide a full range of legitimate services.
If a boss who has paid the fee has any business problems, he can call the person who paid the fee and ask him to come forward and solve the problem.
If the store is vandalized or vandalized, the company will send someone with a red stick specially painted with white ash to come to deal with it.
As for petty theft, it is even more trivial. No one would disturb Tai Sui and make fun of his own life.
"I am Xinghe's Yuanbao. I took over Brother Long's territory."
"This month's fees are waived. Next month, I will send people to collect them normally. I will charge whatever Brother Long charges, and I will never increase the price."
"Tsuen Wan is still a prosperous world, and we can protect it."
"Boss, help us publicize it!"
Yuan Bao put the milk tea in his hand on the table and said carelessly.
It is better to have order than no order. If you fight and kill all day long, you will not be able to do business.
Regardless of whether it is Hexinghe or Heliansheng, whoever comes will have to pay the fees, and it will be paid to anyone, as long as it does not affect your own business.
"Okay, Brother Yuanbao, I'll notify the neighbors right now!"
The boss smiled and nodded, saying it was a trivial matter and he would publicize it as soon as possible.
The first shot was fired.
People must know that He Hing Wo has not given up on Tsuen Wan, and there will be Hing Wo disciples who will step forward to take the lead.
How much business He Hing Wo has in Tsuen Wan, only Zuo Guan and Da Di know clearly how much is Da Di's private property and how much is capital investment. They all have an account.
Qilin will not hand over this account now.
Only new soles in Tsuen Wan can be obtained. This has been the rule for decades.
Without rules, there is no square or circle.
Yuan Bao is not yet confident enough to challenge the rules of the society on his own.
He was born in the execution hall and understands how strict the family laws are.
Yuan Bao raised his hand and glanced at the big gold medal on his wrist. It was a gift from his godfather on his birthday. It was the only one in Xiangjiang and cost 50,000 yuan.
"Boss, those soft-footed shrimps are not coming anymore, are they?"
Chen Fa, who was sitting next to Yuan Bao, was lying on the table, stirring the ice cubes in the cup boredly, and asked lazily.
Escape?
They don't have the guts!
A trace of doubt arose in Yuan Bao's mind, but was quickly extinguished by his own reason.
"We are all brothers from the same family, so be careful what you say."
"The most important thing now is to use the sword to attack the outside world and capture Tsuen Wan."
Yuan Bao did not answer Chen Fa's question, but only warned him to keep his mouth shut.
Disaster comes from the mouth.
Half of the bloodshed in the world is caused by rude words.
Let some words rot in the stomach forever, this is the most basic virtue of a person's mouth.
Chen Fa smiled nonchalantly, picked up the ice cubes in the water glass, put it directly into his mouth, and bit it into pieces with his teeth. The whole tea restaurant made a tooth-piercing crunching sound.
Lin Huaile found the tea restaurant based on the address left on Yuanbao's pager, ordered people to park the car, and led everyone inside.
As the afternoon approached, the nearby residents were all working in factories, and Yuanbao and his group were sitting in the tea restaurant.
"Ale, come and sit!"
When Yuan Bao saw his eldest nephew come in, he immediately became happy and called Lin Huaile over.
The tea restaurant is not large, with only a dozen tables, barely enough for seating.
Lin Huaile asked his men to order food, and he sat next to Yuan Bao, and asked the boss to give him a pineapple bun to satisfy his hunger.
"Uncle Yuanbao, the bar hasn't opened yet, why are you here so early?"
After squeezing away the younger brother next to Yuan Bao, Lin Huaile sat across from Yuan Bao, took out his cigarette, and helped Yuan Bao light it.
Yuan Bao took the cigarette and took a good drag. He glanced around at Changmao and the others and said with a smile, "If you don't come early, you won't even be able to eat shit."
"Although no one openly planted flags in Tsuen Wan, many unscrupulous people have come here after smelling the smell."
"I don't know what my godfather thinks, but it's more important to occupy the territory first."
