If you want to be a good person, find Huadi

The people on the opposite side were none other than Ma Chao and his gang. When the two sides met, they were like enemies meeting each other with furious eyes. Laba immediately led his men to charge forward. At this moment, the difference between the two men was apparent. Laba was a reckless man. He would always lead the charge when attacking others. The boss would charge forward first. Such fighting would generally raise the morale of the younger brothers. Ma Chao was just the opposite. Every time he attacked someone, he would hide behind his younger brothers. He believed in the so-called safety first. He always emphasized to his younger brothers that if a gangster didn't eat brains, he would be a dwarf mule for the rest of his life. Therefore, his drug business was booming. His gang used to be led by Xia Mao, but now it is led by Ah Hao. His men learned from him and would run away as soon as they saw the wind was not right.

The two sides soon engaged in battle. Thanks to Laba's leadership and the courage and fighting spirit of his men, Laba's men quickly gained the upper hand. Laba had already rushed Ma Chao. Seeing Laba approaching him again, Ma Chao, without a word, pushed one of his men to block Laba's blade and then turned to flee. After chopping down the man blocking his path, Laba realized he could no longer catch up with Ma Chao and shouted, "Watch me throw my flying knife!" He hurled his machete at Ma Chao's head. Hearing the noise, Ma Chao ran faster, but still couldn't catch up with the blade. Although he escaped fatal damage, he was still slashed on the buttocks by the machete. With Ma Chao's escape, the encounter came to an end. Laba's ferocity left all of Ma Chao's hundred men wounded, two of whom were killed on the spot. Ma Chao subsequently provided 100,000 yuan for resettlement and spent nearly 200,000 yuan on medical expenses and bail. Why the bail? Because of this kind of large-scale street hacking and killing, the police will be present, but they will clean up the mess after the hacking is over. Those who are seriously injured and can't run will be taken away by the police. Of course, they will be sent to the hospital first, and then the gang leader will be notified to pay for the medical expenses. If they want to be released on bail, they will have to pay another sum of money. As for the dead, in a melee like this, no one can prove who exactly hacked the fatal knife. After all, it's a melee, so the police usually ask the other gang to hand over the person. As for whether the culprit is the police, they don't care, mainly because it is difficult to verify. Of course, they can also arrest the leader, but usually the leader will let his subordinates take the blame, and many subordinates are keen to take the blame. Not only will they get a resettlement allowance, but they can also go to the kiln for further training. After being released from prison, they can become the boss. Some young gangsters are even proud to take the blame for the boss. This era was a time of great chaos in Hong Kong. Although not as rampant as the corruption of the 1960s and 1970s, as Hong Kong was about to return to the motherland, the British government became even more inactive, neglecting their duties, and even encouraging social chaos. They also enacted many new laws that were not conducive to social management and police enforcement, hoping to achieve their goal of not returning Hong Kong to the motherland. Fortunately, the motherland discovered the British government's conspiracy in time and responded promptly, which enabled Hong Kong to finally return smoothly. However, many aspects still received less attention, leaving many hidden dangers.

Ma Chao's strategy of luring the enemy out of their hole and setting an ambush on all sides completely failed. Furious, he cried out in frustration at the huge loss. Even more unacceptable was the fact that his mahjong parlor was doused in gasoline by a loudspeaker, prompting a thorough fire inspection. His darkroom was also exposed, and over 2000 million yuan worth of goods were confiscated by the police. Fortunately, the mahjong parlor's licensee was an unrelated individual hired by his boss, and since the police didn't catch him in the act, they ultimately didn't issue a warrant for his arrest. But Ma Chao didn't fare any better either, receiving a severe beating from his boss. His butt was already injured, and now he was confined to his bed.

Laba, on the other hand, was much luckier. Only a dozen of his men were injured, and Laba paid tens of thousands in medical bills. Delighted, Laba gave each of his fellow fighters a thousand yuan as a reward. The fight boosted Laba's fame, and he became even more arrogant. Using this as an excuse, he pressured several of the gang's elders into electing him as leader. Because Laba's performance was so smooth, he didn't bother Qi Ge, and Qi Ge admitted defeat for the sake of the gang's unity and stability, thus avoiding a fatal blow. Just as Laba was at the height of his power, a murderous scheme against him was about to unfold.
