Chapter 430: Willing to come for loyalty and justice, willing to surrender to Xuanwu Mountain
"Two hundred tables of buffet, spread over three days, two hundred Hong Kong dollars per table, plus drinks, magic show, lion dance team, candles, and firecrackers."

"I've spent HK$350,000 on all sorts of things." Egg Tart pulled out a stack of bills from his trousers' hip pocket, put them on the table, flicked off his cigarette ash, and said enviously, "Boss, this is even more grand than when you were a job seeker."

“Curry Horse is really developed.”

Yin Zhaotang flipped through the bills, a cigarette between his lips, and said with a smile: "Calculate the inflation, it's not that exaggerated. Increase the food money to 300, and change the drinks to better ones, so that we can make up 500,000."

"That day was a big day for Pony, and a great day for the club. It represents the entire group."

Egg Tart nodded and agreed readily: "No problem, the big tap will pay for it, and you guys will have a treat."

Yin Zhaotang was full of emotion as he advised, "We have made it big. Leave the affairs of the underworld to our brothers. After the curry master is appointed, pick a time to hand over the accounts to the newcomers."

Dan Tart nodded: "I understand, we need to be low-key and delegate power."

The most important thing in promoting someone is to give him enough trust and power, so that the new blood of the society can fight for it. It is impossible to give up the leader and keep Egg Tart and A Le.

That would just be a puppet for Curry Ma, which is meaningless. Anyone with a brain can easily understand whether it is really praising a person or just making him feel useless.

Nine p.m.

Curry Ma had just finished delivering the goods and drove his Mercedes back to his newly bought tenement building in Tsuen Wan. He just closed the car door and ran to his home without even locking it.

Because the boss's Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit was shutting down and turning off the lights, and was parked quietly beside the iron gate of the tenement building. The short-statured Sha Hui, wearing a suit and a headset, had a bald head and a very eye-catching look. He opened the car door and said, "Ding Ye, Xiao Ma is here."

Curry Ma, in his completely silly new look, stopped in front of the car door, bent over, and respectfully called out, "Ding Ye!"

Yin Zhaotang got out of the car carrying a large black suit bag and put it in front of Curry Ma, saying, "Keep your head up and chest out. Hmm, it looks like the size fits you well."

Curry Ma was very shocked and at a loss, and finally he uttered: "Ding, Ding Ye, how did you know my number?"

Yin Zhaotang smiled and said, "Is it in the files you took at the police station? Just ask your friends and you'll know. There will be a ceremony for the inauguration at breakfast tomorrow. There will be many seniors and bigwigs. You have to pay attention to etiquette when you appear."

"Luxury cars and famous watches, you have no shortage of them, but as for clothes, I guess you haven't made any. Do you like them?"

Curry Ma was deeply moved by what he said. He swallowed his saliva and said, "I like it. I like it very much!"

Shahui shouted: "More than 10,000 yuan."

With the wealth of Lao Zhong Da Di, more than 10,000 yuan is a small amount of money. But the gift is small but the sentiment is great. The boss personally delivered the clothes to the door, which made Curry Ma's eyes swell with tears.

"Take it if you like it. As brothers, we have a set of Tang suits in our hearts. You can wear whichever one you like. They are all formal wear."

Yin Zhaotang handed the suit pocket to Curry Ma, then took out another pocket from the car and handed it to Curry Ma, then said, "See you tomorrow!"

Curry Horse carried two bags of clothes and nodded heavily: "See you tomorrow, Ding Ye."

"Call me boss." Yin Zhaotang pointed at Curry Ma with a smile on his face, turned around and got into the Rolls-Royce. Only after watching Yin Zhaotang leave did Curry Ma return home with his clothes.

The next day, early in the morning.

Kwun Tong District, Po Lam Road, Tai Sung Po Temple.

The loyal flags, the three-combination flags, and the Hongmen pennants were all planted on the palace walls, fluttering. At about six o'clock, when the dawn was just breaking, the sound of firecrackers could already be heard.

The villagers of Dasheng Village got up one after another to help with the work.

Some people helped to set up the tables and chairs, and some helped in the kitchen. It was impossible to handle a buffet of 300 tables just by the kitchen staff. The kitchen boss had called the village two days earlier and invited a group of people to do odd jobs.

The salary was over 20 yuan, which was considered high for odd jobs. The villagers were paid on the spot every day, and they were eager to get in. The sound of firecrackers at the beginning seemed to be an alarm clock to remind them to go to work.

At the same time, Tai Shing Estate is located in a remote area, young people have to catch minibuses to go into the city, and the elderly wake up early. Setting off firecrackers at six o'clock is just the right time for the villagers to rest, except for the children who will make noise.

At around seven o'clock, Fei Mao, Gao Laosen, Yuan Bao, Tian Tang and other uncles also arrived at the Dashengbao Temple one after another. Tea and snacks had already been prepared at the temple gate, all of which were ordered by the temple keeper at the restaurant.

Today, the uncles came to the mountain gate early to chat and talk about everything. In fact, they changed the place to drink morning tea. After eight o'clock, Yin Zhaotang, Jiang Hao, Guangzai and other young bosses arrived one after another.

At 8:30, the Shengong Opera was performed on stage. As soon as the suona and gongs and drums were played, the gang leaders who came to support the show arrived. Led by Liang Jiacong and Lu Qingdong, Four Eyes Dragon, Happy, Little Chicken, Belt Jun, Big Brother Bing, and even the gang leader Ge Zhixiong, who rarely met, came in a Bentley.

Further back, there were cars of gangsters and their henchmen, as well as gang members who had joined the gangs. There were also gangsters who came to join in the fun, and the sirs from the Organized Crime and Triads who were watching over the place.

In the temple, Fat Cat, Yin Zhaotang, Lu Qingdong and Liang Jiacong gathered around a mahjong table and had nothing to do, so they played mahjong.

There is still some time before the official opening of the mountain gate, which is specially reserved for the gangsters who want to pay their respects to the mountain gate. There is a long distance from the New Territories to Kwun Tong, and the bus does not leave until 7:30. Some gangsters from remote areas need more than two hours to arrive.

The big guys from other groups and the celebrities who came to show their support were all drinking tea and chatting in the side hall, and they were entertained by Gao Laosen, Jiang Hao, and Zuoshou, a few other prominent figures.

At this time, Fat Cat threw out a three-tube card and said with a smile: "Atang, how does it feel to step down and be the boss and support newcomers?"

Yin Zhaotang touched his hand, and then played his cards. His face was normal, and he said calmly: "I will do what Grandpa does, and I will never make mistakes if I learn from my predecessors."

Lu Qingdong sighed, "It's so fast. Atang stepped down after only a few years in office. It's really amazing."

The word "retreat" here does not mean to withdraw from the underworld or the center of power, but to withdraw from the life of fighting and killing and the circle of working hard at the bottom of the society.

Back then, Fat Cat spent a lot of effort to promote him, and everyone in the industry thought that for the next ten or twenty years, Lao Zhong would rely on Shenxiantang to support him.

Unexpectedly, in just three years, Shenxiantang jumped out of the fence and became successful! Of course, Yin Zhaotang had already achieved success and could retire at any time, but retiring at different times had different meanings.

Now that he has enough strength and status, he can retire steadily and gloriously.

In the future, he will become a generation of underworld idols, and be a big boss comfortably, without having to get involved in underworld fighting. But the reputation of "Zhongyi Hall produces thugs" needs a newcomer to carry on.

Liang Jiacong had his hair combed back, his white shirt cuffs folded up, a gold watch on his body, and only a vest on his upper body. He looked quite stylish. He asked while playing cards, "Why didn't you support Ah Hao?"

"Ah Hao is clearly more capable of carrying the brand and can take the company further."

Yin Zhaotang smiled, pushed over the deck, and after shouting that he had won the game, he said, "I, Atang, have already retired, and I will definitely take my brothers with me."

"The Chaoshan Gang's God of War is a thing of the past. How nice is it to be a director of Zhongyi Group?"

Lu Qingdong tried to smooth things over: "Giving new people more opportunities will help the club have new blood and talent, which is a good thing. How can we rely on Ah Hao alone?"

In fact, supporting Ah Hao and taking Ah Hao with him to retreat are related to the development direction of the society. After all, Jiang Hao has a huge influence in the group and has many thugs under him.

Supporting Ah Hao to take over is bound to make the society continue to fight. The more territory the better. The more places the society occupies, the more new gangs will be opened. The more gangs the society occupies, the more new members will be recruited. In the future, factional struggles will definitely be involved. Who knows, it may cause the same disintegration and piles of characters as the Number Gang did.

By bringing Ah Hao along, the society can focus on business and making money, the name will remain stable, and the brothers can share the money and eat the meat.

In the absence of political oppression, Lao Zhong's current military power is enough to dominate the business world, roam Hong Kong Island, and develop step by step.

Curry Ma was born a big gangster. Although he had many brothers under him, they had no roots on shore. Their relationships were simple and easy to control, making it impossible for them to influence the direction of the gang.

Amidst the lion dance, today's protagonist Curry Ma, dressed in a suit, stepped off a Mercedes-Benz, causing many hooligans to shout, "Big Ma!"

"Tie the Thor Curry Horse!"

"He wears a gold Rolex watch and a LV belt. Big Brother Malaysia is really impressive."

Straw Sandal Curry Horse was once unknown in the underworld, not even a standout among the big gangsters. But after several battles, he became an instant hit in Tsuen Wan.

It was truly an overnight success.

Many people no longer dare to call him by his nickname, after all, he likes to eat curry rice, which sounds lame. Now that he is in power, he has to eat big abalone and ride big foreign horses.

The brothers changed their respectful title to Big Brother Ma, or called him Thunder God. Not only because he rose to power with a thunderbolt, but also because he was a metaphor for the bloody battle in Tsuen Wan and the thunder rolling.

Xiqiu Chao and Motorcycle Yong performed well in the New Territories and dared to fight and fight. They were also recommended as role models and together with Curry Ma, they made up the top three.

No matter how busy it was outside, Yin Zhaotang was already used to it inside the palace. He followed the routine, calculated the time, and went into the dark room.

Gao Laosen, who acted as the leader of the altar today, led three brothers into the dark room, knelt down and kowtowed in front of the tablets of the chief monk, the deputy commander, the three heroes and five ancestors, and the martyrs of all generations.

Gao Laosen called out the names of the disciples: "Master Bingxiang, Marshal, here come the disciples Ma Ziming from Tsuen Wan, Xiaochao from Sheung Shui Wai, and Wen Caiyong from Kwun Tong!"

Fat Cat held the dragon-headed staff in his hand, and in front of all the hall masters, he spoke out loud: "Ma Ziming (Curry Ma), Xiao Chao (Small Ball Chao), Wen Caiyong (Motorcycle Yong), have made great contributions in expelling the Tartars."

"Today, we have opened the incense altar and held a ceremony to wash Ma Ziming's straw sandals. It is like thunder out of nowhere, and the red stick is pierced, marking his success as the top scholar."

"Appoint Tsuen Wan disciple Ma Ziming as the 426th Red Stick, grant him a precious seal and token of honor, and promote him!"

"Appoint Xiaochao, the disciple of Shangshuiwei, as the position of the 415 white paper fan, and grant him the precious seal as a token of trust, and promotion!"

"Appoint Kwun Tong disciple Wen Caiyong, the position of 432 straw sandals, and grant him a precious seal and token of honor, and promotion!"

Yin Zhaotang stepped forward and personally bestowed the precious seal as a token. The three disciples received the tokens with grateful expressions on their faces. They bowed their heads and shouted, "Thank you, Dragon Head!"

"Thank you, Dragon Head!"

Then, the door of the dark room opened, and the society's president, the second marshal, and the new celebrities came out one after another and greeted the underworld bosses who came to the main hall to watch the ceremony.

Ge Zhixiong had a kind face, shook hands with Curry Ma, and said with admiration: "You are indeed a rising star among men, a hero."

Curry Ma didn't dare to answer casually and followed the boss quietly.

Belt Jun, Shanghai Boy, and Kai Xin saw it all and understood in their hearts: "This is Lao Zhong's new turret. It is destined to be very popular in the world, but we don't know how long it will last."

"You don't always have an RPG to use. Even if you have a good record in battle, you can still be stabbed to death."

Yin Zhaotang brought Curry Ma, Xiqiu Chao and Jiche Yong, and hurriedly greeted the guests. He then gave the order to prepare to open the mountain gate and recruit disciples.

Lao Zhong hasn't recruited any new people for more than a year. He has recruited more than a thousand brothers. This is in line with the trend and is beneficial. Just don't recruit too many.

As for the three newcomers, they had many opportunities to interact with various bigwigs, so there was no need to rush. They were not even familiar with all the bigwigs in the hall, so it would be too flattering to try to curry favor with bigwigs outside the hall, and the three of them would not do it.

Suddenly, Yuanbao walked up to him and said, "Atang, have you seen Congge and Adong?"

"Uncle Cong and Uncle Dong?"

"I didn't see him when I came out of the darkroom. Maybe he left first."

Yuan Bao frowned, looking puzzled: "Leaving without saying hello, it's really weird."

Yin Zhaotang also felt strange, but he didn't worry about it: "Maybe it's something urgent."

Yuan Bao waved his sleeves and said, "Forget it, open the mountain gate."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the gate of the Great Sage Temple slowly opened. Baolin Road, which was already crowded with people, suddenly burst into loud cheers, and countless people rushed forward: "Lao Zhong has opened the gate. This is a rare opportunity. Go and pay your respects."

"The one recruiting today must be Lei Shen. I heard that Lei Shen wants to be the leader of Mong Kok, the most lucrative job!"

Many gangsters had heard about it and were crowding in the front, but the gate of Lao Zhong Mountain was hard to enter. Those who came to pay their respects today were either the Blue Lanterns among the Da Feizai or the old workers from the sneaker factory.

Ordinary hooligans can't even get the front row seats and give up on joining the sect early. Some powerful gangsters who come to change jobs have either handed in red envelopes and lined up, or just want to take a chance and occupy the seats to try their luck.

As for the Blue Lanterns, the Lao Zhong brothers, who were born into a working-class family, took a minibus directly to the mountain gate. They were wearing uniform black T-shirts and queuing in an orderly manner.

There are many loyal brothers guarding the mountain gate, and there are people from the punishment hall every hundred meters to prevent folk activities from causing unrest.

But at the moment when the Great Sage Temple opened its gates, the City God Temple at the Zhongyi Xinshan Gate and the Guanyin Temple at the Zhongyi Qunshan Gate next door all opened their gates at the same time.

The Zhongyi Xin was headed by Lu Qingdong, with more than 50 big followers behind him, including young people who were uncles. The Zhongyi Group was headed by Liang Jiacong, with more than 70 big followers.

The two loyal men came out in droves, and the entire group of people poured out of the mountain gate, cutting through the ranks and getting out of the crowd, and were the first to arrive at the mountain gate of Zhongyi Hall, where they all prostrated themselves on the ground.

Lu Qingdong and Liang Jiacong held up the club's underwater roster with both hands, their faces solemn, and shouted solemnly: "Today, 2,531 disciples of the Loyalty and Righteousness Church (3,260 disciples of the Loyalty and Righteousness Group) are willing to come here for loyalty and righteousness, and are willing to join Xuanwu Mountain, worship in the Loyalty and Righteousness Hall, drive out the Tartars, and revitalize China!"

The two big men with the word "loyalty" in their names were all extremely serious and shouted loudly: "We come here for loyalty and righteousness, and we are willing to go to Xuanwu Mountain and worship in the Loyalty Hall!"

The more than 10,000 people in front of the mountain gate were all stunned. When the City God Temple and Guanyin Temple opened, all the bad guys knew that the two loyal people took advantage of the opportunity to recruit new blood.

If you can't join Lao Zhong, you can join Er Zhong or Xi Zhong, which are all considered to be the beginning of Zhong. It is better than joining the Sunset Society, and many people have been tempted.

But they didn't expect that the two characters would take refuge with their entire family and go to Xuanwu Mountain, which caught everyone off guard. It is just like this: Loyalty and courage are remembered in the heart, and the reputation spreads far and wide outside the Red Flower Pavilion. The flags at the gate of Xuanwu Mountain are flying, attracting brothers to be praised forever.
