Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Chapter 239 The Situation at the Brewery

Liu Xu followed He Yu and after taking a look at the surrounding area, he came to a mahjong hall called "Good Luck Fa Fa Fa".

As soon as he stepped into the room, he found that the business of this mahjong parlor was extremely hot. Not only were all the seats full, but there were also varying numbers of onlookers standing around each mahjong table.

When they entered the office on the second floor, He Yu took the initiative to explain to Liu Xu: "This is the license plate that Uncle Fei gave me when he followed Uncle Hai to leave Hong Kong Island. Brother Xu."

Liu Xu chuckled, with a playful look on his face: "Why? Ah Yu, you don't think I'll be jealous after seeing your Mahjong parlor's booming business, do you?"

After hearing this, He Yu waved his hands and said with a chuckle, "No, no! Anyone who's in the underworld knows that you, Brother Xu, own the largest taxi company in Hong Kong Island!"

"How could you be jealous of my small business? I took the initiative to explain because I didn't want to cause any misunderstandings with you, Brother Xu, because of this mahjong parlor."

He Yu explained further.

It is common knowledge that 70% of the mahjong parlor licenses in Hong Kong are in the hands of us and Lian Sheng, and 20% are in the hands of Sun Kee.

Liu Xu naturally understood the deeper meaning behind He Yu's words.

Since mahjong hall licenses were issued in the 1850s, it has become passively clear who holds each license.

He Yu's explanation this time was undoubtedly due to his fear that Liu Xu would misunderstand him and mistakenly believe that he was secretly colluding with other leaders of Lian Sheng or had ulterior motives.

Therefore, he took the initiative to disclose the source of this mahjong parlor to prove his innocence.

Drinking tea and chatting with He Yu, time passed quietly for about half an hour. Liu Xu asked in detail about the recent situation in He Yu's sphere of influence and the recent movements of Hongtai Aquan next door.

After confirming that the situation at He Yu's site was stable and that A Quan had not made any unusual movements, Liu Xu stood up and said goodbye, ending today's inspection.

On the way back to the boxing gym, Liu Xu and his group walked silently through the bustling Nathan Road.

Suddenly Liu Xu broke the silence: "Ah Sheng, A Yi, have you noticed anything unusual about Ah Yu's mahjong parlor?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangyi unconsciously slowed down their pace and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, Tian Yangyi spoke first, with some certainty in his voice: "Brother Xu, I don't feel anything unusual. It's no different from other mahjong parlors."

Liu Xu's eyes swept across Tian Yangsheng who was still in deep thought. Without saying a word, he just nodded slightly to Tian Yangyi and continued to move forward steadily.

Soon, Tian Yangsheng broke the silence between the three people, "Brother Xu, I don't feel that there is anything unusual about He Yu's mahjong parlor."

As he spoke, Tian Yangsheng suddenly smiled and said jokingly, "If I compare it with other mahjong parlors, the only feeling I get is that the space is a bit crowded."

"Generally speaking, four people are suitable for playing mahjong at one table, but there are seven or even nine stools at each table."

"Except for the aisles which are relatively spacious, the rest of the place is packed with benches."

As Tian Yangsheng finished speaking, Liu Xu's footsteps suddenly stopped, he stopped where he was, turned around and looked at Tian Yangsheng with a meaningful look.

That look made Tian Yangsheng's heart tighten, and he was a little at a loss. He forced a smile and asked nervously: "Xu... Brother Xu, is there anything wrong with what I said?"

Liu Xu suddenly smiled and patted Tian Yangsheng's shoulder to calm him down: "It's okay, what you said is not only okay, but also absolutely right."

He continued walking forward, explaining, "From the moment I saw the sign of He Yu Mahjong Hall, I felt something was wrong."

"When I walked out of the door of He Yu Mahjong Hall, this feeling reached its peak, but I still couldn't find the root of the problem."

As he spoke, Liu Xu ignored the inquiring looks from Tian Yang and the others, picked up his phone, and his tone became serious: "Xion Tail, I have an important task for you now."

Scorpion Tail, who was on the other end of the line, heard the urgency of the matter from Liu Xu's tone. He immediately perked up and responded, "Brother Xu, go ahead."

"Pick a few loyal followers and have them monitor He Yu day and night. Keep a record of everyone he has met and report to me every two weeks."

Liu Xu paused for a few seconds, as if thinking about something, and then added: "You must personally confirm the family background of those who participate in this mission."

"Especially in the case of their parents, who not only have to be in Hong Kong Island, but also have to be in good health and able to accurately identify the type of person their son is in order to be selected for this mission."

"But remember, don't alert the enemy!" During this call, Liu Xu seemed to be worried that Scorpion Tail didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, so he emphasized every word.

Although Scorpion Tail didn't understand why Liu Xu suddenly wanted to monitor He Yu so closely, since the boss had given the order, he would naturally do his best to carry it out.

"Got it. I will strictly follow your instructions to carry out this task." Scorpion Tail's voice was full of seriousness and determination as he assured Liu Xu.

Liu Xu responded softly and hung up the call with Scorpion Tail.

Seeing that Tian Yang and the other two were still looking at him with confusion, Liu Xu waved his hand and slowly explained: "It is not convenient for me to reveal the specific situation to you for the time being."

Upon hearing this, Tian Yang and the other man looked at each other, quickly suppressed the curiosity on their faces, and quickly followed Liu Xu's pace.

He guarded Liu Xu seriously and attentively, and continued to examine every detail around him with a vigilant look.

At noon the next day, the sun shone brightly on the land of Tsuen Wan District. Liu Xu and Tian Yang drove to the brewery there.

He hasn't set foot in this brewery for more than two months, ever since he sent his father Liu Gensheng here to serve as deputy director.

During this period, Liu Xu fully entrusted the operation of the brewery to Qian Lin, and he never asked about it at all.

As he walked into the brewery's gate, what came into view were the carefully greened sides. Liu Xu couldn't help but nod secretly in his heart, deeply impressed by Qian Lin's dedication and responsibility.

Passing through the wide gate, under the eager and respectful gaze of the security personnel, he walked calmly towards the brewery workshop.

Liu Xu already had a plan in mind. He would first inspect the overall situation of the brewery and then go to the factory director's office.

Ask the factory director Qian Lin about the brewery’s production status and account financial situation over the past two months.

Compared with two months ago, the scene in the workshop has been completely changed. The number of employees has increased significantly, the sound of machines running one after another, and the scene is busy and orderly.

Liu Xu walked slowly towards Qian Lin's office and gently pushed open the door. He saw Qian Lin sitting on the sofa, chatting happily with a young man.

Seeing the office door being pushed open but no knocking sound, Qian Lin stopped talking, frowned slightly, and turned his eyes to the door.

However, when he saw that it was Liu Xu who came in, his brows instantly relaxed, a warm smile spread across his face, and he stood up and quickly walked over to greet him.

"Boss, why did you come so suddenly? You didn't even inform me in advance so I could go out to greet you." Qian Lin extended his hand enthusiastically and shook hands with Liu Xu gently.

Liu Xu responded with a smile, turned his gaze to the young man who also stood up, and said with a smile: "It seems that I came in at a bad time and disturbed your business conversation with A Ming?

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
