Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 67 "67" Digging a Hole

Jimmy frowned and asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Lin Yao countered, "Have there been more clubs speculating on pre-sale apartments lately?"

Jimmy nodded: "Indeed, there are quite a few more. I guess they're quite envious of how much money we're making."

“Even our henchmen have had some conflicts with the other side. If this continues, we probably won’t be able to make any money!”

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Then let them handle the property speculation business!"

Jimmy was a smart guy, and he immediately understood what Lin Yao was up to: "Are you planning to drag them into this?"

"Once our company has projects to handle, we can naturally transform our business! We're not short of funds now, and we can start considering acquiring some small plots of land to develop projects!"

Lin Yao chuckled and said, "This business of speculating on pre-sale apartments is just a small token of my appreciation as a junior. What do you think?"

"Damn, you weren't planning to do this all along, were you?" Jimmy remembered what Lin Yao had told him before, that speculating on pre-sale apartments was definitely not a sustainable business.

Now, combined with the trap Lin Yao had set, Jimmy was utterly astonished.

Are there really people in this world who think three steps ahead before taking one?
He even grabbed Lin Yao's head and looked at him carefully, saying in bewilderment, "He's not any different from an ordinary person!"

"Damn it, I don't have horns on my head!" Lin Yao slapped Jimmy's hand away in annoyance. "But we have to act a little reluctant, so that no one can see through our act!"

As the two were plotting their scheme, Chen Dong ran over: "Brother Yao, Brother Jimmy, a guy named Deng Feng has come to see you!"

"Hehe, you mean that Princess Road racing god, right?" Jimmy laughed immediately.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Let's go out and take a look!"

Soon Lin Yao saw Deng Feng leading a group of people, carrying a stretcher as they walked in.

"Brother Yao, my brother is blind to your greatness, please forgive him this time!" Deng Feng said directly to Lin Yao, "This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it!"

He then took out a wad of cash and respectfully placed it on the table.

Looking at the grieving man lying on the stretcher, Lin Yao asked curiously, "Why are both of his legs broken?"

Deng Feng quickly said, "This is to apologize to Brother Yao. I broke it myself!"

"Hmm, at least they've shown some sincerity!" Lin Yao looked at the amount of money on the table; it wasn't much, just a few tens of thousands of yuan.

However, for a guy who drives for robbers and occasionally acts as a car thief, it's already pretty good.

So Lin Yao simply waved his hand and said, "Alright, take your idiot brother and get lost! Remember to keep your eyes open in the future!"

Deng Feng's face immediately lit up with joy: "Thank you, Brother Yao! Thank you, Brother Yao!"

Lin Yao personally told him to get lost, which means that this matter can be put to rest and will not be pursued any further.

This immediately relieved Deng Feng of a great weight.

So he quickly took his younger brother and left the bar.

Lin Yao looked at the tens of thousands of yuan in his hand and threw it directly to Chen Dong: "Take this money and have some fun with the brothers. The rest can be divided among everyone!"

Chen Dong and the others immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, Brother Yao!"

Despite it being only a small amount of tens of thousands of yuan, Lin Yao noticed that Chen Dong and the others' loyalty had increased significantly.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Lin Yao, their leader, not only took them in when they were at their lowest point, but also gave them food to eat.

Moreover, he frequently gives out money and is exceptionally generous. How could such a leader not be loyal to him?

If Lin Yao were to send them to beat someone up, they would definitely wield the stick with force and throw punches with precision.

After seeing off the henchmen, Lin Yao had a long talk with Jimmy before returning to the magazine office.

Lin Yao has already decided on the content for the fifth issue of "Jianghu" magazine: he'll use Fei Quan's kid's death as a gimmick.

From Fei Quan's high spirits to his violent death in the street, only a few short months have passed. I guess many people haven't forgotten that hothead yet, and he's sure to generate a lot of buzz right now.

At the same time, it can also appease the police; they will definitely be very satisfied with such a good example of warning.

Lu Qichang had previously complained that he had been so focused on making money lately that he had stopped cooperating with the police.

After handing over his interview transcript to Yang Siwen, Lin Yao glanced at the food report that Lu Ping had sent him.

It has to be said that Lu Ping is quite capable.

At least they can compliment people indirectly and subtly, something Lin Yao and Yang Siwen can't do.

Moreover, this guy didn't just write an article about the "bursting, pissing beef balls," he also wrote an article about Temple Street.

Lu Ping turned directly to Lin Yao and said, "Boss, what do you think about starting a food guide column for the martial arts world?"

Lin Yao's eyes lit up immediately: "Oh? You have an idea?"

Lu Ping nodded: "After all, our magazine targets most ordinary people, and I think many of them will definitely be interested in this!"

"Sure!" Lin Yao agreed immediately after only a moment's thought: "If you need funds, just apply to the finance department. Yang Siwen's signature is all you need!"

Lu Ping was also very happy. After all, being able to create content he liked was already a perfect job for a seasoned food editor.

So I told Lin Yao about my idea: I planned to find all the good hole-in-the-wall restaurants in Hong Kong and dedicate a segment to them each week.

Once Lin Yao made a decision, Yang Siwen usually wouldn't interfere, and she readily approved Lu Ping's application for activity funds.

...The incident involving Chang Le brought shame upon the entire organization.

Especially after his elder brother Pan returned from America and learned that both hall masters had been defeated by Lin Yao, he became famous in the martial arts world by stepping on their heads.

He was instantly enraged and started cursing at Brother Crab and Fei Hong: "Are you two pigs? And the people you brought are pigs too! Even if there were more than a hundred pigs, it would take thirty or so people a while to catch them!"

Crab Bro and Fei Hong were scolded so badly that they didn't dare to raise their heads or even utter a word of rebuttal.

After all, they set a trap for Lin Yao, only to be defeated by him in a direct confrontation.

The entire face of Chang Le has been stripped away.

Brother Pan had thought that his return would bring good news, but instead, he was met with devastating news.

How can he still have the face to act as a big brother in front of gangs like Hong Le now?

Thinking of this, the eldest brother, Pan, grabbed the ashtray on the table and smashed it: "Is Lin Yao's construction site still up and running?"

Crab Bro muttered, "It's too late. The housing estate is already completed, and all the houses have been sold!"

"I heard that bastard Lin Yao made a fortune from this project, and now he has both money and manpower!"

"Damn it!!!" Big Brother Pan was even angrier and slammed his fist on the table, cursing loudly.

Although his elder brother Pan was angry, he was not a reckless person.

After asking around, he felt terrible.

Lin Yao now commands a strong and well-equipped force, and is backed by Wo Luen Shing.

Morally, Chang Le made the first move, so they had no chance to do anything to Lin Yao.

Brother Pan had no choice but to give up and wait for another opportunity to kick Lin Yao when he was down.

At least for now, Chang Le has absolutely no way to deal with Lin Yao.

However, the fact that he cannot attack Lin Yao does not mean that he cannot make things difficult for Lin Yao.

Pan, the eldest brother, keenly sensed that Lin Yao's business of speculating on pre-sale apartments was quite successful and didn't require much technical expertise.

What he and Lian Sheng did, he himself couldn't do, no matter what Chang Le did.

Even if it doesn't make much money, lowering the price of pre-sale apartments can still be a huge way to annoy them.

So, Brother Pan called upon his capable subordinates to prepare to open a real estate company.

……

In Longgen's restaurant on Shanghai Street.

Seeing these shameless uncles and hall masters of the Wo Luen Shing family, Long Gen was furious.

From the moment they entered the restaurant, they were treated with the utmost hostility.

After all, they were all just trying to get a piece of the pie, so Longgen's behavior was perfectly reasonable.

Longgen wasn't the kind of person with deep thoughts, and the more he acted that way, the more they believed him.

A moment later, Lin Yao and Jimmy walked in from outside.

Upon seeing the two approaching, the uncles and elders of the Wo Luen Shing family immediately stood up to greet them.

Even Lin Huai Le, Da Pu Hei, Gao Lao, Huo Niu, and others looked at Lin Yao with the same eyes they would give a God of Wealth.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Sorry, there was a traffic jam!"

"It's alright, it's alright. The traffic in Mong Kok isn't very good anyway!" Tai Po Hei said with a smile.

"Ah Yao, I heard you've made quite a bit of money lately! We're all in the same gang, so share your money-making secrets with us!" Chuanbao said directly.

They got straight to the point; these bastards really stopped pretending.

Longgen said sarcastically, "Some bastards really have no shame! Whoever feeds them is their mother! Humph!"

For the sake of money, Chuanbao didn't bother arguing with Longgen at all. He just pulled Lin Yao down to sit and wanted to hear Lin Yao's thoughts.

Lin Yao didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly: "I just run a small real estate company. Even if so many uncles and bosses wanted to cooperate with me, how much profit would I get?"

Chuanbao laughed and said, "We just plan to team up and earn some money for retirement. We'll be very satisfied with a few hundred thousand a month!"

Before they came, they had inquired and found out that Lin Yao's real estate company had made more than seven million yuan in profit from speculating on pre-sale apartments in just the past few months!

Even if it's divided among so many people, they can still get quite a lot.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "We're all in this business to make money. If I can do it, there's no reason why you can't! Well then, my Guangyao Real Estate Company is really too small. If you invest, you won't be able to expand your profits in a short time."

"How about you all start this business yourselves? I can teach you step by step, all you need is some capital!"

Lin Huaiyue was stunned: "Teach? You can teach this kind of thing?"

After all, this is a way to make money, and most people would be too busy keeping it to themselves to teach others.

Lin Yao said calmly, "Nobody's a fool. Speculating on pre-sale apartments doesn't actually require much skill, and quite a few gangs have already started to follow suit!"

"I definitely can't swallow such a big cake by myself. I'd choke to death if I did. Let's rely on the club's strength and do it together!"
