I Am King

“Ah Yao and I just went to the police station for a meeting. The cops told us to behave ourselves for a while, so everyone should call back the people we’ve sent out.”

At the Hung Hing headquarters, Leung Kwan sat in the seat that Chiang Tin-sang used to occupy, looking smug and self-satisfied.

"Brother Kun, what do you mean? Aren't you going to avenge Mr. Jiang?"

The speaker was Big Brother B. With the fall of Chan Ho-nam, Big Brother B looked much older than before, and his voice was no longer as flamboyant.

If Chan Ho-nam were still alive, with his strength and relationship with Chan Ho-nam, he could easily rival Leung Kwan. But now he's alone, and he's somewhat weaker in the face of Leung Kwan. So when he speaks, he doesn't have the same confidence as before, giving people the impression that he's all bark and no bite.

“Big B, we used to be the ones in charge, and I didn’t mind you calling me Liang Kun. Now I’m the head of the agency. You’ve been around for so many years, don’t you know how to talk to me?”

That's right, just now, Liang Kun successfully took over as the leader of Hung Hing. However, the situation is similar to when Qin Feng took over. Because the murderer who killed Jiang Tiansheng was not found, the word "acting" was added.

Liang Kun was very dissatisfied with this and wanted to lose his temper, but Chen Yao persuaded him to take over for a while and then remove those two words later.

Liang Kun felt a great sense of accomplishment for being able to win over Chen Yao, so he valued Chen Yao highly and agreed after thinking about it.

“You are just acting as the leader. We just agreed that only if you can catch the murderer who killed Mr. Jiang can you officially take that position.”

“Now that you’ve just taken office, you’re telling us not to find the murderer. I suspect you don’t want to avenge Mr. Jiang at all.”

Realizing he had just lost his composure, Big B changed the subject.

“I didn’t say we wouldn’t avenge Mr. Jiang. The police are telling us to behave ourselves. If you, Big B, insist on going against the police at this time, I have no objection.”

"But if the cops raid our place every day, the guys down there won't be able to work and won't have anything to eat. Who will take responsibility for that, you or me, the boss?"

"..." This time, Big Brother B didn't dare to reply. The livelihoods of tens of thousands of brothers were at stake. If he really said he would take responsibility, even if he sold himself, it wouldn't be enough to compensate the gang.

But he couldn't stand seeing Liang Kun so smug, so he still stubbornly said, "But we can't just not avenge Mr. Jiang, can we?"

"How will the underworld view Hung Hing after this? They won't even dare to seek revenge when their leader is assassinated."

"I didn't say I wouldn't take revenge... We can recall the people during the day and send them out again at night!"

Liang Kun knew that doing nothing would definitely not work, so after thinking for a moment, he replied.

“I agree. We can let our underlings go out and rob people at night. When they’re doing it, they should avoid the police, not cause any trouble, and not give the cops any excuse to cause us trouble. Then everything will be fine.”

Chen Yao chimed in to smooth things over.

Hearing his words, the others exchanged glances, and then Bucky was the first to stand up and speak;

"Mr. Li is the leader now, so of course we have to listen to him."

"I agree."

"...I agree."

"agree."

Han Bin and Thirteen Sister then spoke in turn.

Seeing this, the others also voted in favor, and thus, the first order issued by Leung Kwan after taking office was passed unanimously.

This gave Liang Kun a great sense of accomplishment.

"So this is what it feels like to be the leader! No wonder that bastard Jiang Tiansheng has been hogging this position and refuses to give it up!!!"

"Since everyone agrees, then this matter is decided."

"Now, let me tell you something else."

“I have some connections with Wansui Feng from Dongxing. He has channels to get cheap vegetables and meat. If you are interested, you can take over the vegetable market on your territory. Then I can talk to Wansui Feng and have him supply you.”
