Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss
Chapter 336: Cheng Zhancai, who means well but ends badly
The two talked for a while, and after Dadong came back, Shouhou was about to leave with the camera. When he reached the stairs, Shouhou seemed to have thought of something and said, "Boss, that Xiaowu seems to be from Lujia Village. Do we really have to hand him over to Mai Yaodong like this?
I've heard that Mai Yaodong is ruthless, and if Xiaowu falls into his hands, the consequences will be disastrous."
As Skinny Monkey finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang turned to Dadong and asked, "Dadong, didn't I ask you to call Uncle Xiong and ask him which branch this Xiaowu belongs to?"
Hearing Lu Yongqiang ask himself, Dadong scratched his head and said, “Brother, if you don’t ask me, I will forget to tell you.
I called Uncle Xiong. Lu Ziquan is from the second branch of the family, and is five generations removed from us. Uncle Xiong said not to worry about him, he's just an insignificant pawn."
Lu Yongqiang thought for a moment and said, "Although he is five generations away from the ancestors, he still has the surname Lu and is considered to be from the same ancestor, so let him go!
Skinny Monkey, take him to find Mai Yaodong, make him tell the truth, and then bring him back.
Isn't Eagle complaining about a shortage of manpower? Throw this guy to the construction site and make him do hard labor for three months. Let Eagle assign him the hardest and most tiring work. If he works honestly, I'll let him off once. But if he slacks off, I'll break his legs."
At this point, Lu Yongqiang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Throw the guy with him to the construction site as well. Let Old Eagle treat them all equally and make arrangements for them."
As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Shouhou said in surprise, "Boss, this arrangement of yours is a bit unlike your usual style of doing things."
Lu Yongqiang smiled and said, "Skinny monkey, don't make me sound like an executioner who always shouts and calls for killing others.
In the past, we were weak, and only ruthlessness could deter those with ulterior motives. But now it's different. We have become powerful, and now we need to cultivate our character and learn to restrain ourselves. Unless it is absolutely necessary, we should not take action.
At this point, Lu Yongqiang sighed, "The police's criminal investigation methods are changing with each passing day. Look at the cameras installed in the streets and alleys.
The times are completely different now than they were a few years ago. We are no longer in the era where people could just casually kill people on the streets, so we must change with the times."
Skinny Monkey took the camera and went to find Hong Ying's Mai Yaodong. Without any words, he just showed Mai Yaodong what the camera had recorded, and then asked Xiao Wu and the other man to tell him what had happened. After that, he took five million from Mai Yaodong.
Just like what Shouhou said, Lu Yongqiang didn't want his money for nothing. Just based on the trap set by Cheng Zhancai, if it hadn't happened to fall on Lu Yongqiang, if it had been another big boss who hadn't seen through Cheng Zhancai's trap, he wouldn't have been so easy to talk to. I'm afraid he would have killed Mai Yaodong directly, and he would have died without knowing how he died.
Although Lu Yongqiang wanted to provoke Mai Yaodong to deal with Cheng Zhancai, he would not leave any handle for others, so the content recorded by the camera was only shown to Mai Yaodong, and was not given to Mai Yaodong.
Otherwise, as long as Mai Yaodong takes out the content recorded by the camera, not only Cheng Zhancai will be in trouble, but Jiang Tianying will also have a hard time.
Since Lu Yongqiang refused to give Mai Yaodong the video, Mai Yaodong naturally could not deal with Cheng Zhancai face to face and could only act secretly.
In the plot of "Armed Reaction", the Hong Ying Society is quite powerful and has great influence in the whole West Kowloon. However, in this seemingly true world of Hong Kong variety shows, although Mai Yaodong has made a lot of money by relying on offshore gambling, the Hong Ying Society is not powerful, and Mai Yaodong is not as powerful as in the plot, who can handle tens of millions of offshore bets every day.
Now Mai Yaodong only does offshore gambling in the area from Causeway Bay to Happy Valley, and the amount of offshore bets every day is about three to four million.
But relying on this business, Mai Yaodong earns tens of millions of yuan every month, almost exceeding the income of the entire Hongying Society.
So even though Jiang Tianying is the leader of the Hongying Society, Mai Yaodong doesn't take her seriously at all. Because of this, Jiang Tianying often scolds Mai Yaodong at home for being ungrateful.
Cheng Zhancai married Jiang Tianying partly because of the power and status of Jiang Tianying's family, but also a big part of the reason was that he really liked Jiang Tianying.
The reason why Cheng Zhancai caused the incident at the cinema was that he just wanted to help Jiang Tianying deal with Mai Yaodong, but he didn't expect that not only would Lu Yongqiang see through his carefully designed plan, but he would also turn the tables on him.
After Cheng Zhancai left Lu Yongqiang's villa, he was still complacent, thinking that he had helped Jiang Tianying a lot. After returning home, he happened to hear Jiang Tianying scolding Mai Yaodong again. Cheng Zhancai couldn't help but told the story of his plan as if to take credit.
"Aying, if Lu Yongqiang takes action, it will be a disaster for Mai Yaodong. If things go wrong, Lu Yongqiang might even kill Mai Yaodong directly."
When Jiang Quan married Jiang Tianying to Cheng Zhancai, he just wanted Cheng Zhancai to live an ordinary life with his daughter and never thought of letting them get involved in underworld affairs.
So after the two got married, Cheng Zhancai never asked about the affairs of the society. Later, when Jiang Quan passed away and Jiang Tianying wanted to compete for the leadership, Cheng Zhancai gradually began to pay attention to the situation of the society in order to help Jiang Tianying.
Cheng Zhancai is capable and scheming, but he has little exposure to community affairs, which leads to his lack of judgment. In his opinion, since Mai Yaodong is not convinced by Jiang Tianying, everything will be fine if he gets rid of Mai Yaodong.
But the reality is not like this. Mai Yaodong is the face of Hongying Society, and among the several bosses of Hongying Society, he is the most capable one.
If something happened to Mai Yaodong, the Hong Ying She would be severely damaged. Especially since Jiang Tianying had only recently taken over as leader and his foundation was a bit unstable, if something happened to Mai Yaodong at this time, and he was killed by the Hong Xing people, it would be simply putting the blame on Jiang Tianying.
After all, the relationship between Jiang Tianying and Jiang Tiansheng was no secret, and almost everyone in the Hongying Society knew it clearly. No matter what reason Lu Yongqiang had for dealing with Mai Yaodong, everyone finally thought it was related to Jiang Tianying.
Jiang Tianying's foundation was originally unstable. If something like this happened, many people in Hongying Society would definitely become disloyal, and Hongying Society might even fall apart.
After Cheng Zhancai finished speaking, Jiang Tianying's face changed immediately. She looked at Cheng Zhancai in disbelief. She saw that Cheng Zhancai's face was full of smugness and he had never thought about how serious the consequences of this matter would be.
Cheng Zhancai likes Jiang Tianying, but Jiang Tianying has never liked Cheng Zhancai. The reason they were able to get married was because of Jiang Quan's strong request.
In Jiang Tianying's heart, not only did she dislike Cheng Zhancai, she also felt that Cheng Zhancai was a Phoenix man. The reason he married her was entirely to gain power in his family, so she looked down on Cheng Zhancai from the bottom of her heart.
Jiang Tianying couldn't help but raise her hand and slapped Cheng Zhancai, then shouted angrily: "Are you trying to kill me? Lu Yongqiang is the leader of Hongxing. Don't you know what my relationship with Jiang Tiansheng of Hongxing is?
If Lu Yongqiang really takes action against Mai Yaodong, everyone will definitely blame me for it. I already can't win the support of the people. If something like this happens again, do you think they will still obey me? I'm afraid that the uncles who originally supported me will no longer support me.
You are simply a piece of trash. If you were not my husband, I would take you to Tuen Mun right now to explain everything clearly."
Cheng Zhancai was not stupid, he just had too little contact with club affairs, so he made a wrong judgment. However, after hearing what Jiang Tianying said, Cheng Zhancai immediately realized how big a mistake he had made.
Cheng Zhancai thought for a long time with a gloomy face, and finally said: "Aying, I'm sorry! It's my inconsiderateness that caused such a big trouble..."
Jiang Tianying, already upset, couldn't contain her anger the moment she heard Cheng Zhancai's voice. She barked, "Sorry? Is that all you can say? I want to know how to resolve this problem."
As soon as Jiang Tianying finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside.
Cheng Zhancai asked, "Aying, where are you going?"
Jiang Tianying said without even turning her head: "Where else can I go? I can only ask Brother Sheng for help. Let's see if he has any good ideas."
After saying that, Jiang Tianying turned around and looked at Cheng Zhancai, then said in a cold voice: "You loser, from now on you just stay at home honestly and don't go out to cause trouble for me." As soon as the words fell, Jiang Tianying had already left quickly.
To be honest, Lu Yongqiang never thought that on this day, people would send him money continuously.
Not long after Cheng Zhancai gave Lu Yongqiang the money and left, Yang Tian actually came to his house.
Looking at the two bundles of banknotes on the table, Lu Yongqiang asked with a smile, "Big Head, did you come here today just to give me money? Is there anything else?"
When Yang Tian came over, Lu Yongqiang thought that this guy had been thinking about it all night and was ready to join him. Unexpectedly, Yang Tian took out two bundles of banknotes without saying a word and said that the money was given to him by Cheng Zhancai, and he came here specifically to give money to Lu Yongqiang.
As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Yang Tian said, “Brother Qiang, I came here this time specifically to give you money.
This matter has nothing to do with me. I shouldn't have taken this money, so I sent it to you, Brother Qiang."
Lu Yongqiang picked up the two bundles of banknotes, took a look at them, and then threw them directly to Yang Tian.
"Big Head, since it was Cheng Zhan who gave it to you, it means that you deserve the money.
You just got out a while ago, and I heard you're still living in low-rent housing. You can use this money to improve your life! I don't need these little things."
Yang Tian took the two bundles of banknotes, thought for a moment, smiled bitterly and said, "I've been a little tight on money lately. It's not that I'm having difficulties in life. Although the movie theater doesn't make much money, the money I earn is enough for me to live on.
I was in prison for more than five years, and my family spent a lot of money on me. After I was released from prison, my parents borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends to open a newsstand.
Since Brother Qiang has asked, I will shamelessly accept this money. I owe Brother Qiang a favor, and I will repay him when I have the chance."
