Hong Kong variety show: My handsome son, Kwan, is a master at making money in Hung Hing.

"Now all four major securities firms have certified the quality of Jiawen stock. Whenever you need cash, you can always find a bank to provide a mortgage loan."

Before he could finish speaking, Brother Ji excitedly slammed his fist on the table: "Atai, you're such a good friend! Jiawen Century's stock is worth more than money! Just hold onto it and wait for it to appreciate!"

Prince, Fatty Li and others had their eyes shining. Jiawen stock was being snapped up like crazy. The price was changing every day and was still soaring. Experts said it could break through to a sky-high price of 45!

Qin Tai had anticipated everyone's reactions. Given the choice between reaping benefits and accumulating assets, even a fool would know which to choose.

Following the example set by his superiors, Qin Tai was able to use Jiawen Century's stock directly as the currency for repayment, while keeping the cash firmly in his own hands!

"Now, let's talk about the second round of the performance-based agreement!"

Qin Tai made a startling statement, dropping another bombshell that instantly caused an uproar in the audience.

"What? A second round of betting agreement?"

In a fit of rage, Camel, the leader of Tung Sing, pounded on the table and cursed, "What the hell is that good-for-nothing handsome guy Tai doing?!"

I think he's clearly targeting us! He wants to completely disrupt the balance that has existed between Tung Sing and Hung Hing for so many years!

Camels, known for their composure and for valuing harmony, almost lost their guard.

In the Kowloon Boxing Tournament, he spent a fortune, even betting the gang's cash flow on it, thinking he had the victory in the bag. But who would have thought that he could lose to Flying Dragon so easily and lose everything!

The formidable Five Tigers of Tung Sing fought, yet Crow, the Mountain Tiger, is still in the hospital in a cast, and Situ Haonan, the Dragon-Catching Tiger, was beaten to death on the ring. This humiliation for Tung Sing has emboldened surrounding gangs, who, seeing an opportunity, feel invincible and have frequently caused friction.

Damn it, if Jiang Tiansheng hadn't also lost 50 million, Camel would have even thought that Jiang Tiansheng had deliberately set a trap for him!

The other hall masters were even more devastated. The most senior and respected elder, Uncle Ben, sighed, "This handsome Tai is not only powerful, but more importantly, his vision and mind are top-notch. He just set up an investment company and seized the opportunity presented by Jiawen Century's explosive growth. In less than a week, he has made a name for himself. Now, everyone in the underworld knows that if you invest with handsome Tai, you can sit at home and count your money! Hung Hing can save on advertising costs when recruiting!"

"That's right, even the prostitutes at the brothel are selective about who they serve, specifically targeting the fattest guys, like Hung Hing. These scoundrels spend money like water, indulging in a life of luxury! How can the brothers stand watching those formerly penniless bastards dare to book out entire venues and spend lavishly?"

Smiling Tiger Wu Zhixiong gave a wry smile: "Old Ding, we need to think of a way to curb Hung Hing's momentum. Now that the news of the second round of betting agreements has been released, the entire underworld has gone crazy. Everyone is trying to curry favor and pull strings. I heard that even the cops are asking their relatives and friends to secretly place bets and get a share of the profits. Not to mention, even my underlings, Si Jiu, are secretly using Blue Lantern as an intermediary to spend money on investments!"

"To be honest, this betting agreement is really tempting. You just throw money in and don't have to worry about anything, then you can sit back and enjoy the dividends. It's even more comfortable than robbing a bank, who could refuse?"

The group chattered excitedly, but the topic kept veering off course, and the more Camel listened, the more constipated he looked.

They're all leaders of the Dongxing Hall, so why are they all boosting the morale of others while diminishing their own?

"I understand all of that. Can you talk about something more meaningful?"

Lei Yaoyang, nicknamed "Thunder Tiger," wiped the gold-rimmed glasses of the seemingly refined scoundrel and said seriously, "Boss, ever since we lost our life savings in the Kowloon Boxing Tournament, we haven't been able to pay our pensions, medical expenses, or resettlement allowances. We've had to rely on high-interest loans to make ends meet. The brothers under our command are all dissatisfied. If we don't do something soon, we'll see our Tung Sing organization fall apart before we even get to settle accounts with Hung Hing in a bloody battle..."

These words really hit Camel where it hurts. Even gangs don't dare to easily take on high-interest loans, because the interest can snowball and be quite terrifying.

When it comes to collecting debts, they don't care who you are.

Camel's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He said, "Once the next batch of goods is shipped out, we'll be able to recover the money we've been owed. That will be more than enough for our pensions and resettlement allowances. But if we let Hung Hing continue like this, their monopoly will not be a good thing for us!"

"Instead of sitting and waiting to die, let's take the initiative! What do you all think is the best way to resolve our current predicament?"

All eyes immediately turned to Wu Zhixiong, the Smiling Tiger. As the strategist of the East Star Society, he was always the one with the most underhanded tricks and methods.

Smiling Tiger did not disappoint everyone's expectations, calmly analyzing the situation: "I think our perspective on the issue seems a bit too one-sided. The key issue is not the overall state of Hung Hing, but the existence of the Great Qin Era Investment Company, which poses a threat to our organization!"

"As long as we eliminate the mindset of the investment company, carry out a targeted bombing and a decapitation operation, the Hung Hing triad's path to wealth will crumble on its own. If we're lucky, the money Hung Hing invested in the second round might be wiped out in no time if no one is managing it at the crucial moment!"

"At that time, not only will Situ's great revenge be fulfilled, but we will also severely damage Hung Hing and prove you worthy of honor!"

The camel nodded repeatedly, a look of joy appearing on its face for the first time: "You're right! I was thinking too rigidly. Changing my perspective has indeed made everything clear!"

Upon hearing this, Golden Tiger Sandman slammed his fist on the table and shouted with unparalleled bravery, "Old Ding, you wait, I'll take some men and take care of Handsome Tai right now!"

But Lei Yaoyang grabbed his shoulder and said, "Sha Meng, calm down, Smiling Tiger hasn't finished speaking yet!"

"What else do you want to say? Just take out Handsome Tai, the culprit, and everything will be fine, right?" Sha Meng shouted arrogantly, his face full of roguishness. "Don't worry, I'm not crazy. Everyone in the underworld knows that Handsome Tai is brave and invincible. I definitely won't fight him head-on. But I don't believe that no matter how strong he is, he can't just use his bare hands to kill someone."

"Who told you that the culprit was Handsome Thai?" Smiling Tiger suddenly said something surprising, instantly catching Sandman off guard.

Nani?

Even the camel looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Who else could it be but handsome Thai?

The smiling tiger stood with his hands clasped in front of him, looking serious. Commander Ding, a glint of wisdom gleaming behind his glasses, said, "Great minds think alike! I'm sure Yao Yang guessed the answer too. This handsome Tai is nothing but a tool pushed to the forefront, a puppet under the spotlight!"

"The one truly pulling the strings behind the scenes is someone else entirely! This person is almost supernaturally intelligent, a master strategist who perfectly conceals all traces of himself under the spotlight of each blockbuster hit, yet manipulates everything from behind the scenes. If you observe carefully, you can see through the clues!"

“That’s right!” Lei Yaoyang put on a show, his seemingly refined but actually wicked demeanor gleaming with a penetrating wisdom behind his glasses. “Think about it, everyone! Handsome Tai is at best a gangster. No matter how much investment acumen he has, he has absolutely no roots or connections in Hong Kong’s high society. How could he possibly know the inside information behind the stock market?”

"Moreover, the financial market is constantly changing. Even the stock market guru Fang Jinxin wouldn't dare say that he can make a guaranteed profit just by looking at the market trends. Unless he can predict the future, it's impossible for him to seize such a once-in-a-decade opportunity!"

Lei Yaoyang easily eliminated the correct option and confidently continued to elaborate: "Everyone, ask yourselves honestly, without absolute confidence and reliable inside information, who would dare to bring out such a desperate, all-or-nothing weapon as a betting agreement?"

"Handsome Thai is just a small fry who only knows how to fight and kill. He doesn't have that ability at all! He's just a spokesperson who's been pushed to the forefront to attract everyone's attention!"

The collaboration between Lei Yaoyang and Wu Zhixiong, like a double act, finally reached its climax. Every step forward and every conclusion was intricately linked and insightful, earning frequent nods of approval from the various hall masters present.

Finally, after eliminating all illogical errors, what remains is the only truth!

"The only person truly in control of all of this is that man!"

Camel, white-headed old man, and sand bug gasped and blurted out the man's name in unison.

"Liangkun!"

Crouching Dragon, Smiling Tiger: "That's right! He was a hidden dragon in the abyss, who astonished everyone with his sudden rise! He used himself as bait to win against fate! He won battles from afar, subduing Yau Ma Tei with a smile! He changed generals on the spot, turning defeat into victory in a desperate situation! It's perfectly reasonable for someone with such almost demonic intelligence to easily do what others can't and know inside information that others don't know!"

Phoenix Chick Lei Yaoyang: "Hehe... Although Liang Kun thought he was hiding well, he would definitely leave a trace as long as he passed by! Our Dongxing is also full of hidden talents, but in the end, we and Smiling Tiger still discovered the clues!"
