Chapter 126: Red sticks are often available, but double flowers are hard to come by
"Mr. Jiang!"
"Mr. Jiang!"
When everyone saw Jiang Tiansheng coming, they all stood up to greet him, except for Zhou Shengpeng and Liang Kun, who were two unruly guys.
Jiang Tiansheng pretended not to notice, walked to the main seat, and waved his hand: "Everyone sit down."
Afterwards, he took the first seat, and everyone sat down together.
After sitting down, Jiang Tiansheng nodded at Chen Yao.
Chen Yao understood and slowly said, "Brothers and sisters, the meeting has officially begun."
"Some time ago, there was some friction between us, the Hongxing, and the Meizi group, one of the thirty-six groups of the Number Gang. A battle broke out in Causeway Bay."
"In this battle, Chen Haonan performed a great service. He not only defeated the Meizidui of the Number Gang, but also drove the Meizidui forces out of Causeway Bay."
"At the same time, we also captured a dock, which was a great achievement."
"Big B, out of consideration for his younger brother, suggested to Jiang Tiansheng that Chen Haonan be given a red stick, Da Tianer be given a white paper fan, and Shan Ji be given a straw sandal."
"Wow!"
As soon as Chen Yao finished speaking, a cry of surprise rang out.
Since this matter was brought to the headquarters, it meant that it had been approved by Jiang Tiansheng.
What everyone found unbelievable was that Jiang Tiansheng actually agreed.
He promoted three of Big Boss B’s younger brothers to the top in one go.
Chen Haonan, who was standing aside, couldn't help but show pride on his face.
Finally, he was qualified to enter the main hall and be praised in front of everyone.
An uncontrollable look of joy appeared on his face.
The leaders of other regions and everyone in Zhafit looked at Chen Haonan, with a hint of disapproval in their eyes.
For example, Hung Hing, which claims to be one of the top three gangs in Hong Kong Island, has tens of thousands of official members and fights in various districts of Hong Kong Island every day.
If we were to talk about the fact that we had only defeated a small group like Mei Zidui, it would take a whole day and night to finish talking about it at the Hongxing Conference.
If they were all pierced with red sticks, a telephone pole coming down could crush all the red sticks.
Jiang Tiansheng's decision is somewhat intriguing.
Bucky was even more delusional: "Could it be that Chen Haonan is Jiang Tiansheng, the illegitimate son left behind among the people?"
Zhou Shengpeng glanced at Chen Haonan and thought to himself, "Could it be that this guy's aura of a leading man is showing up again?"
However, he quickly dismissed the idea.
According to the current situation.
The more likely possibility is that Jiang Tiansheng wanted to win over his own forces and gave fake positions to Chen Haonan and three others in one go in order to trap Big B.
Now, he has taken over Kwun Tong and his influence has further expanded.
Jiang Tiansheng had to be on guard against Zhou Shengpeng, who might be more successful than his boss.
Just take this opportunity to support your own people more.
After figuring it out, Zhou Shengpeng smiled faintly and didn't care about anything.
This decision made the leaders of each gang feel a little uncomfortable, and everyone started to discuss it in whispers.
Jiang Tiansheng knocked on the table lightly, and everyone quieted down.
"No one objects to Haonan's taking up the Red Stick this time, right?"
Jiang Tiansheng glanced at everyone.
As for today's arrangement, it must be Jiang Tiansheng's idea, so naturally no one objected.
Everyone raised their hands and voted in favor.
Except for Liang Kun and Zhou Shengpeng, who were completely rebellious, no one else had any objections.
"This time, we won't be performing the grand show at Gaoxi Temple for the red stick ceremony."
"Ayao, this red envelope is from me to Haonan. You can help Chen Haonan and the others get their jobs on my behalf."
Jiang Tiansheng took out a red envelope and handed it to Chen Yao.
When Chen Haonan heard Jiang Tiansheng say this, his face, which had been smiling just now, froze slightly and he felt a little uncomfortable.
He clenched his fists tightly, feeling very unwilling.
Why is it that Zhou Shengpeng, a failed job seeker, is so glorious and can even go to Gaoxi Temple to take up a job, while he is just going through the motions?
You know, the most exciting part of the red stick ceremony is to go to Gaoxi Temple to perform a big show.
There must be incense, candles, white paper fans and red sticks present to witness the ceremony, which is very grand.
Even if it is a little worse, it is still like Big Brother B, using the ritual of vernacular drama.
Let Hongxing’s white paper fan, red stick, and Lao Sijiu come to witness and then take the oath.
But unfortunately, the red stick he made was the most rudimentary "mosquito net play".
Jiang Tiansheng gave a red envelope and didn't even need to show up in person. Just made a verbal announcement and that was considered a dismissal... Thinking about this, Chen Haonan felt very uneasy.
It would be fine if he was inferior to Zhou Shengpeng in every way.
After much difficulty, a red stick was tied, but it was done in the most crude and sloppy way.
Chen Haonan was still immersed in dissatisfaction.
Big B looked at his expression as if his parents had died and shook his head. Chen Haonan was still too naive.
At that time, Zhou Shengpeng had taken over the lucrative Bolan Street, and the scandal of Liang Kun murdering his younger brother was also exposed.
Therefore, Jiang Tiansheng had no choice but to personally appoint Zhou Shengpeng to the Gaoxi Temple in order to save face.
Otherwise, over the years, how many red sticks could Jiang Tiansheng personally take charge of?
If Chen Haonan wants this honor, he must make greater achievements.
A gap between everyone's thoughts.
Jiang Tiansheng has already started talking about the next thing.
"Some time ago, our Hongxing leader, Kunpeng, drove out Hongtai, saved Yau Ma Tei and other territories, and even successfully established a presence in Kwun Tong."
"This incident will cause a sensation throughout the martial arts world and bring fame to our Hongxing."
"I received many calls from bigwigs in the underworld, all praising our Hongxing community for their wealth of talented people and promising young talent."
Jiang Tiansheng said without pausing, looked at Zhou Shengpeng and continued: "I propose to nominate Kunpeng as the club's double flower red stick!"
"boom!"
Although in the underworld, Zhou Shengpeng became the uncrowned double-flowered red stick of Hongxing the moment he defeated Gan Zitai.
However, when this proposal came from Jiang Tiansheng's mouth, it still shocked everyone.
Gan Zitai's expression was even more gloomy.
The double-flowered red stick is the signature of the entire society and is recognized by all social organizations as the strongest red stick.
The club’s red sticks, white paper fans, and straw sandals all prioritize the double-flowered red stick.
To become a double-flowered red stick, one must possess the abilities of the three positions of red stick, white paper fan, and straw sandals at the same time, which is called three-flowered master.
The Double Flower Red Stick must not only be the best fighter, but also have good interpersonal relationships, be good at socializing, be able to make money, and understand strategy. He must be a person who is both civil and military, and only then will he be eligible for promotion.
In addition, the consent of at least three other community leaders is required to grant double flowers.
They are extremely rare in the world.
In a large community, there is basically only one double-flowered red stick in office.
Jiang Tiansheng nominated Zhou Shengpeng for the Double Flowers and Red Sticks, which means that for him, the Prince of Hongxing, the Double Flowers and Red Sticks will become a thing of the past.
Even though Gan Zitai felt unwilling, he could only swallow his anger silently.
Who made her not as skilled as others and unable to beat Zhou Shengpeng?
Chen Haonan, standing aside, felt as if the sauce had been spilled, with all kinds of mixed emotions.
He has worked very hard, but after a lot of effort he managed to get a red stick, while others have already got a double red stick, second only to him and above everyone else.
Comparing people to each other is so annoying!
When Zhou Shengpeng heard that Jiang Tiansheng was so generous to nominate him for the Double Flower Red Stick, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
In Hong Kong Island, wearing double red sticks is not just a matter for one society, but for all societies in Hong Kong Island.
The Double Flower Red Stick not only needs to convince the society you belong to, but also the people from other societies.
As the saying goes: "Red sticks are common, but double flowers are hard to come by."
Only large societies are qualified and have the confidence to award double-flower red sticks. One flower is given by the society, and the other is given by other societies.
At least three major communities must witness it together.
If Jiang Tiansheng nominates him for the Double Flower Red Stick award, and other societies are dissatisfied and refuse to give him the flower or come to witness, then they will be losing face.
This is because the conditions for becoming a double-flowered red stick are very harsh.
Therefore, the double-flowered red stick is so rare and even more precious.
"An old fox is an old fox. He is really good at calculating."
Zhou Shengpeng cursed in his heart and immediately understood Jiang Tiansheng's insidiousness.
Nominating for a double-flower red stick is different from directly getting a red stick.
It will take at least a year of observation, which means that all communities on Hong Kong Island must witness it.
Jiang Tiansheng wanted to push him out and put him into the sight of all the communities in Hong Kong Island so that he couldn't make any big waves.
This will prevent him from becoming too powerful and reduce the risk of threatening Jiang Tiansheng's position.
Zhou Shengpeng saw through Jiang Tiansheng's thoughts and looked at him with sharp and deep eyes.
Jiang Tiansheng also looked at Zhou Shengpeng meaningfully.
Zhou Shengpeng is developing too fast and too aggressively now, which makes him have to be cautious.
You know, ever since he took over Hung Hing from Chiang Chen, there have been more and more unfit people, and their attitude towards him has become more and more hypocritical.
Many people don't take him seriously.
This is also the reason why he strongly supports people like Chen Yao, Gan Zitai, Big Brother B, Brother Chao, and Ma Wangjian.
After supporting these people, he would take advantage of their unstable position to throw sand in their sails and put shackles on them so that they could not threaten his leading position.
Of course, this trick was also used on Zhou Shengpeng.
Unfortunately, time and time again, Zhou Shengpeng had to handle everything on his own.
His men are also loyal and unyielding, and it is difficult to get in the way of them.
If this continues, it will be difficult to control Zhou Shengpeng's soaring momentum.
In this case, we should push Zhou Shengpeng to the top, nominate him for the Double Flower Red Stick, and let him enter the sight of major societies.
A tall tree attracts the wind. Zhou Shengpeng is busy dealing with other societies. Does he still have the energy to threaten his position?
Anyway, it's just a nomination now, not the real double flower red stick for the job.
Whether Zhou Shengpeng can stand the test and deserve this title is another matter.
"Everyone, as usual, let's begin the voting. Those who agree with Kunpeng's nomination of Shuanghua Honggun, please raise your hands!"
After Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking, he was the first to raise his hand.
The leaders of other halls looked at each other and raised their hands.
Everyone has witnessed Zhou Shengpeng's ability to make money, personal strength, and strategy. No one dares to say that he is not worthy of being nominated for the Double Flower Red Stick.
Several veterans, such as Baki and Uncle Xing, did not want to offend this plague god.
Because Prince Hongtai offended Thirteenth Sister, he was completely driven out by him alone.
They were not strong and their days were numbered, so they did not dare to touch such a taboo easily and raised their hands.
Big B, Ma Wangjian and others are all from the same faction as Jiang Tiansheng, so naturally they are in the same boat with him.
Gan Zitai was dissatisfied. He had a very bad impression of Zhou Shengpeng and thought that he was a sinister and calculating villain.
Although he was impressed by Zhou Shengpeng's fighting ability, he felt that his character was not worthy of his position, so he did not raise his hand.
Naturally, Liang Kun would not raise his hand. Seeing Zhou Shengpeng, who had lost the game, becoming more and more successful, was more painful than having his skin scratched.
Brother Chao remained neutral and abstained.
A vote with two red sticks, each with their own thoughts.
