Chapter 162: Scenery and Respectability

Yaoji, wearing a Zhongshan suit, sat on a chair and brewed tea. He said in a sour tone, "Brother Mao, if you open a new gang every year, there will be Lao Zhong's gang in every district in Hong Kong by the 1990s."

Fat Cat clasped his fists and said humbly, "I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it."

Lao Mo, Jie Shiyong, and Guangzai all came to Jiang Hao, Zuo Shou, and Ah King to congratulate them: "Congratulations, the three of you. For today's inauguration ceremony, can you set up a separate table for us?"

Jiang Hao said cheerfully, "Brother Mo, would you please give me a favor? Can we have a drink together at the Peninsula Hotel tonight?"

Guangzai patted him on the shoulder, nodded and praised: "It's good that you have the intention, there is no need to spend money."

Jie Shiyong smoked a cigarette and joked loudly: "Brother Guang, you have a lot of gold medals and famous watches, and you drive a Mercedes-Benz to work here, you won't be short of that little money!"

Lao Mo smiled and said, "Ah Hao is dressed beautifully today. He looks very impressive."

This kind of gold medal watch dress is a reflection of strength, but it can also easily arouse envy.

Yin Zhaotang followed the sound and inserted himself into the middle of the group of people. He held a bottle of beer in his right hand, put his arms around Jiang Hao, and put his left hand on their shoulders. He shouted unruly, "Lao Mo, a group of people are bullying my brother. Tell me what you want to do!"

Guangzai snorted twice: "Think of it, I really want to cut you off."

"Come on, try Big D, Niu Niu, Thirteen Cards, Pai Gow, or Mahjong?" Yin Zhaotang was not willing to be outdone.

Jie Shiyong rolled up his sleeves, rubbed his palms, and shouted excitedly: "Pai Gow Pai Gow, I'm the banker."

"Pick that star and move a table over!" Yin Zhaotang freed his hands, eager to try.

Immediately, a clever younger brother moved the table and chairs and set up a temporary gambling table.

Street Market Yong, wearing Pegasus sneakers, stepped on a bench, pushed the card game and shouted, "Bet on the banker or the player, buy and leave."

The big guys who participated in the ceremony of taking office in the incense hall, whether they were from the Chaozhou gang, the Dongguan gang, or Hutchison, gathered around when they saw someone opening a gambling table like ants smelling honey.

Yin Zhaotang took a seat, flipped through the dominoes, and said, "Today is my brother's big day. It only happens once in a lifetime, so we must be as majestic as possible."

"I want you all to be as angry as your mother, and then I'll kill you!"

Uncle Hai, one of the twelve elders of Hetu, also came to participate in the ceremony. Seeing the young people's desire to win, he couldn't help but say with envy: "Youth is full of vigor."

"Fat Cat, Zhongyi Hall is now full of vigor and vitality. In a few years, it will become one of the most famous companies in Kowloon."

Fat Cat didn't admit it, and said tactfully: "Zhongyitang's reputation is small to begin with, and we just work hard to make a living."

"It's difficult to go from nothing to something, but it's easy to become popular again. The Chaozhou Gang used to be one of the four major gangs in Hong Kong Island. They were as famous as Hutchison Whampoa and even more powerful than the Number Gang." Uncle Hai said with a smile.

Fat Cat remained calm, having sensed Uncle Hai's probing. He smiled and said, "Uncle Hai is a veteran of Hetu. Is there anything you can teach me?"

"I heard that Zhongyitang is now very big with fans, and has many joint locations and channels, but the supply is always tight. If you have goods that need to be sold, why not let us do it?"

Because of Jiu Wenlong, Uncle Hai not only did not have any rift with Zhongyitang, but he also admired Jiang Hao and Yin Zhaotang very much.

Fat Cat suddenly realized: "It turns out that everyone in the underworld thinks that Zhongyitang is making money from white powder."

Although the financial resources of the sneaker factory, Dafeirou, magazine and Malan are obvious, running a social organization is not like running a listed company, so there is no such thing as issuing regular financial reports.

Most of the big guys in the underworld think in an old-fashioned way and think that Da Feirou and the sneaker factory are just small businesses.

Zhongyitang grew in size by absorbing Dong'an Society, Chaozhou Gang, and Hequnle.

The reason why the brothers are united and the gang obeys orders is the profits from the white powder.

But I never thought that it was the huge profits brought by legitimate business.

He laughed and said, "We can cooperate if there is a chance, Uncle Hai." "Haha, Fat Cat, just call me Dahai." Uncle Hai smiled kindly and walked up to shake his hand.

Liao Zhihong was wearing a suit and stayed by his father's side, but his peripheral vision kept looking around the card table. When the lunch started at noon, the big players took their seats.

He raised his glass and came to Yin Zhaotang and Jiang Hao and congratulated them warmly, "Congratulations, Ah Hao, Jordan District will be under your management from now on."

"Please take care of me, Mr. Liao."

Jiang Hao bowed and toasted, with a very humble attitude.

"Zuoshou, the factory business is booming. If you open a new factory, remember to let me know and I will do my best to support you." Liao Zhihong was very generous and did not hide his desire to make friends.

With his left hand, Ah King smiled and nodded, adapting to the interpersonal communication of being a big bottom.

Liao Zhihong finally came up to Yin Zhaotang and whispered, "Atang, did Uncle Cat choose you to take over?"

"no?"

Yin Zhaotang raised his head and drank.

Liao Zhihong said with a smile: "Stop pretending. Today is Ah Hao's big day, and it's also your big day. Come on, let's have a drink!"

"cheers."

Yin Zhaotang smiled but said nothing.

Liao Zhixing pushed up his glasses, stood beside his father, and glanced at his boss out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing the boss chatting and laughing with Yin Zhaotang, he was secretly alert. After Liao Zhihong drove away, he immediately came to the table and toasted with Jiang Hao and the other two.

After walking around, it was Yin Zhaotang's turn. He smiled and said, "Atang, are you interested in joining the Youth Federation of Industry and Commerce?"

"Brother Zhixing, I am a rough man, and I haven't asked you what the function of the Federation of Industry and Commerce is?" Yin Zhaotang had a sincere expression, pricked up his ears, and listened attentively.

Liao Zhixing said slowly: "The Federation is a place where a group of like-minded business friends gather together to drink tea, chat and discuss the direction of business."

"But the New Territories Chamber of Commerce and Industry has a business support program every year, which provides low-interest loans to support business friends in starting their own businesses."

"We are a family, so let's not talk about it. I actually want to run for the vice-president of the Youth Federation at the end of the year. If Ah Tang joins the association to support me, my chances will be much better."

Yin Zhaotang sighed inwardly. Liao Zhixing was very sincere, but unfortunately he had already made up his mind. He smiled and declined: "I'm sorry, Brother Zhixing, I have also been invited to join the Kowloon Chamber of Commerce."

"Well, Zuoshou, you will be my representative and join the New Territories Trade Union Youth Association. If Brother Zhixing needs help, you must give your full support."

Zuo Hand immediately reached out to Liao Zhixing: "Mr. Liao, please give me some help."

"Take care of each other." Liao Zhixing shook hands in a friendly manner, said goodbye with a smile and left.

Shenxiantang is not an ordinary underworld boss. Without his support, we need to take our time.

After Jiang Hao finished attending the inauguration ceremony, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

Fat Cat beckoned Yin Zhaotang to his side and whispered, "Uncle Jiu is in a good mood today. You should stay and explain the matter to Uncle Jiu with me."

"Some things need to be withdrawn with dignity and washed clean."

Yin Zhaotang nodded slightly: "Okay."

He knew that things had come to a head.
