Having failed to obtain the territory he desired, a trace of regret flashed across Liu Xu's face.

To be honest, apart from the territory, he really didn't want anything else. After all, he didn't lack money for the time being, and the same was true for people.

Of course, this does not mean that Liu Xu has no interest in the territory.

It was because he knew very well that once he took control of Yau Tsim Mong, those foreigners might choose to sit on the sidelines and would not easily intervene in the disputes among the underground forces in Hong Kong Island.

However, if he attempts to expand further, unless he is willing to become a puppet of Britain, the road will be full of thorns and difficult to pass.

As a man who possesses a mysterious system and is well aware of the world's plot, Liu Xu's thoughts will never be bound by worldly shackles.

He will not easily succumb to the will of others. His only pursuit is to be the master of his own destiny and have the freedom to do whatever he wants without being affected by external things.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and then Liu Xu quickly took over Jiang Sheng's words and continued in a tentative tone:

"Then, Mr. Jiang, can you help me to completely evict the Ni family from Tsim Sha Tsui and give me that piece of land?"

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng raised a mocking smile and shook his head slightly, with a hint of subtle sarcasm in his tone:

“First of all, your nightclub incident is completely different from Chen Yongren’s situation; secondly, your strength is far from that of the Ni family.”

"Even if the news of this incident about 'white powder' spreads to the north tonight, it is just a minor inconvenience to me."

"If you keep testing me like this, don't blame me for not playing with you anymore!"

Liu Xu keenly grasped two meanings from Jiang Sheng's words: first, they had seen through that the reason why the Ni family helped him eliminate Jordan Wang Bao was because of Chen Yongren;

Second, compared with the Ni family in Tsim Sha Tsui, it was obviously easier for him to deal with the one in Yau Ma Tei.

Liu Xu chuckled and was not angry at Jiang Sheng's sarcastic words.

After all, the two requests he made were carefully designed to test Jiang Sheng's bottom line. If he agreed to it, he would make money, and if he didn't agree, he would not lose anything.

However, seeing that he could not take advantage of Xin Ji, Liu Xu did not give up easily. Instead, he quickly adjusted his strategy and decided to try to take advantage of Jiang Sheng instead.

He was silent for a moment, creating a tense and oppressive atmosphere. Then, he slowly stretched out three fingers, and his tone became unusually firm:

"I hope Mr. Jiang can control your Xinji people in the next three months and make sure they don't set foot in my territory."

As he spoke, Liu Xu leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on Jiang Sheng, and he asked slowly, "Mr. Jiang will not refuse my small request again, right?"

Jiang Sheng's gaze was as deep as the abyss. He stared at Liu Xu closely, trying to catch a hint of flaw or hidden intention in the other's eyes.

Although he did not understand the deeper meaning of this request, his years of experience in the martial arts world told him intuitively that this was by no means a simple request and that there must be something mysterious behind it.

Jiang Sheng took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

At the same time, the brain is like a high-speed machine, quickly analyzing the current situation and major changes that may occur in Hong Kong Island in the next three months.

He knew very well that in this turbulent underground world, every decision could affect the rise and fall and survival of the entire force.

Seeing that time was slowly passing and Jiang Sheng was still thinking with his head down, Liu Xu glanced at the time and urged him with a hint of sarcasm:

"Mr. Jiang, half an hour has passed. How about I give you a break? Let you go back to sleep and think about the specific reasons behind my request?"

Jiang Sheng heard this, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes. He realized that he had lost his composure a little in this psychological contest, and was set off by Liu Xu's question.

Quickly calm down your emotions, adjust your mindset, and regain your previous calmness.

"Since you have made the request, I naturally need time to consider its rationality and feasibility." There was a hint of toughness in Jiang Sheng's words.

"As for your request, I agree!"

A barely perceptible joy flashed across Liu Xu's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, as if everything was under control.

He nodded gently, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his words were full of approval: "Mr. Jiang is indeed a straightforward person. I know you won't let me down."

Jiang Sheng smiled slightly, with a hint of depth and appreciation in his smile. He changed the subject and said slowly, "Liu Xu, since you already know that I have successfully established contact with the North."

"I wonder if you are interested in transferring to my Xinji?" His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he had already foreseen the moment when Liu Xu nodded in agreement.

"In He Liansheng, even though you are a red stick in the society, you are still just a thug. But in my Xinji, if you are willing to switch to me, I will definitely promote you to be the boss of Yau Ma Tei. What do you think?"

Jiang Sheng's words were full of temptation, as if he was showing Li Xu a road paved with gold.

If Liu Xu is willing to transfer to their Xin Kee, it would be a godsend, just like Axe Jun in Tsim Sha Tsui East, it would be able to quickly expand and enhance the strength of their Xin Kee.

But unfortunately, he is not the former Second Marshal's advisor Su.

Liu Xu shook his head gently, rejecting Jiang Sheng's proposal:

"I am grateful for Mr. Jiang's appreciation and love, but I have no intention of transferring. He Liansheng is my root and the soil for my growth. I cannot give up this feeling."

The nature of Xin Ji is completely different from other societies such as Lian Sheng, Hong Xing and Dong Xing. Xin Ji is a typical example of a family-run society, and it is a pipe dream for outsiders to want to take the position of the leader of the society.

Although he was not keen on the position of the host, he also did not want to be labeled as a "house dog". Therefore, switching to Xinji was not within his consideration.

When Jiang Sheng saw that Liu Xu refused so straightforwardly, a hint of barely perceptible disappointment flashed across his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal, his smile still warm, as if he had never felt disappointed.

"Since you have made up your mind, I can't force you. However, I promise that the door of Xinji will always be open to you. When you have figured it out, Xinji will always welcome you."

There was a certain casualness and open-mindedness in Jiang Sheng's words, as if he was telling Liu Xu that he would have the opportunity to join Xinji at any time.

Liu Xu raised his teacup and gently touched the cup in Jiang Sheng's hand, as a response to this unfulfilled friendship and potential alliance.

He smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Jiang for your kindness. If there is an opportunity for cooperation in the future, I will definitely give priority to Xinji. As for switching jobs, I really don't have this idea."

Although the conversation between the two seems light-hearted and pleasant, there are actually undercurrents and every word contains deep meaning.

They all know that in this world, there are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

As the teacup was gently placed back on the table, Jiang Sheng stood up, straightened his suit, and his eyes revealed a calm confidence and open-mindedness. He smiled and said:

"Okay, let's settle the matter that happened in your nightclub today. You and our Xinji are acquainted with each other, and I hope that our cooperation can bring a win-win situation."
