Chapter 176: The Argument Conference
The situation was similar to what Lu Yongqiang had guessed. It was indeed not Ji Zaijun who was causing trouble, but Liang Ma. That night, Chen Haonan's good brother Da Tianer appeared in Sham Shui Po with thousands of people. Not only did he take back the previous territory of Hongxing, he also took over several streets of Heliansheng.
Just as Lu Yongheng had analyzed, the Heliansheng group was leaderless, and the Sham Shui Po group was also without a core force. Heliansheng offered no real resistance, and Datianer and his men immediately seized their territory. If the police hadn't been alerted, Heliansheng's presence in Sham Shui Po might have been taken down.
That night, the chaos was not limited to Sham Shui Po.
Wang Bao, who had a grudge against Big D, naturally would not miss this opportunity after knowing that Big D was taken away by the police. He led his men directly to Tsuen Wan. However, Big D was well prepared. The two sides fought, and Wang Bao's side did not gain any advantage. In the end, he led his men to withdraw from Tsuen Wan.
The most chaotic areas are Yau Tsim Mong and Kowloon City.
Having suffered a great loss, He Liansheng was naturally unwilling to give up, especially since Lin Huaile also lost his territory in Tsim Sha Tsui, he was even more unwilling to give up.
That night, He Liansheng organized tens of thousands of troops to attack Tsim Sha Tsui, but the Ni family was well prepared. Ni Yongxiao's third uncle led seven or eight thousand people to fight with He Liansheng. I heard that both sides used guns in the end, but in the end neither side could do anything to the other?
The Heliansheng and Ni families fought in Tsim Sha Tsui. The Xiyan, Shisanmei, and Hongtai families united and organized 5,000 to 6,000 people to directly step into the territory of Zhongxinyi. The two sides fought from Kowloon City to Mong Kok.
Zhong Xin Yi suffered a great loss. All of its territory in Kowloon City was lost, leaving only a dozen scattered streets in Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei.
Afterwards, Thirteenth Sister did not ask for the territory of Kowloon City, but gave all the land to Xiyan and Hongtai.
The excitement of the night was exhilarating, but it completely angered the police. The next day, they took action again, conducting joint inspections in Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan, Sham Shui Po, Yau Tsim Mong, and Kowloon City. They arrested three to four thousand people and took them to police stations. Most of the nightclubs in these districts were temporarily closed by the police, with a deadline for rectification. As for how long these rectifications would take, it depended on the attitude of the major social groups.
Under the police's strong hand, the major gangs all acquiesced. After negotiating terms, the leading figures from each gang were released on bail that same day. The chaotic underworld conflict sparked by the Hung Hing gang had come to a temporary end. Regardless of whether everyone was convinced or not, no one dared to stir up trouble again for a while.
In the next two days, those who were arrested by the police, if they could be released on bail, would be bailed out by the community. Those who could not be released on bail could only consider themselves unlucky and go to Stanley for further studies for a period of time.
After the matter was almost settled, on the fourth day after the incident, Hung Hing held another temporary gang meeting. Quite a number of people attended this meeting. In addition to the leaders and red sticks of the major gangs, there were also seven or eight veterans of the society.
Lu Yongqiang did not attend this gang meeting. Lu Yongheng attended on his behalf. Afterwards, Lu Yongheng reported on the situation. According to Lu Yongheng, this meeting was a complete waste of time. In the end, apart from resolving the resettlement fee issue, no other issues were resolved. Even the question of who would be in charge of Sai Wan for the time being was not resolved.
The first issue to be addressed at the meeting was the resettlement fee. For battles like the one on the first night, such as those in Sai Wan and Sham Shui Po, which affected the entire club, the club would naturally cover the resettlement fee. The Causeway Bay battle would also require the club to cover the resettlement fee. However, for battles like those in Yau Tsim Mong and Kowloon City, the club would not recognize the funds, so the resettlement fee would have to be borne by Thirteenth Sister and Small Eyes.
Thirteenth Sister took over half of Hua Fu's territory, and Xiyan took over two-thirds of Zhong Xinyi's territory in Kowloon City. Both of them were winners, so they naturally had nothing to say if they paid some resettlement expenses.
So the issue of resettlement allowance was quickly resolved, but the subsequent reward system became more complex.
In this underworld melee, Lu Yongqiang made a name for himself in Sai Wan. Not only did he bring honor to the gang leader, but most importantly, he won the battle. So Lu Yongqiang was the main contributor, but there were more than just Lu Yongqiang leading the team that day. There were also three other Red Sticks, so these three people naturally made considerable contributions as well.
When it comes to rewarding people for their merits, the first thing to discuss is how to reward Lu Yongqiang.
Sai Wan happens to be ownerless right now, and it is also the home base of Xin Ji. If we want to ensure the stability of Sai Wan, it would be best to send a capable and reputable person to be in charge, so that Xin Ji will not dare to act rashly.
And just as Luk Wing-keung himself said, he perfectly meets all the requirements and has made great contributions. Letting Luk Wing-keung take over Sai Wan is not only a reward for Luk Wing-keung, but also allows Luk Wing-keung to shoulder heavy responsibilities and share the worries of the community. It is simply a best of both worlds idea.
So no matter whether it was the gang leader or the elder of the society, everyone recommended Lu Yongqiang to be the leader of the Sai Wan gang.
The reason why Lu Yongqiang did not show up was that he was afraid of encountering such a situation. After all, once the society decided something, Lu Yongqiang would have no way to refuse even if he was not happy about it.
But he did not show up, and there were rumors on the street that Lu Yongqiang was seriously injured and would need a long time to treat, which gave Lu Yongqiang the right to refuse.
After all, if Lu Yongqiang really takes over Sai Wan, what if Lu Yongqiang doesn't show up for a few months and problems arise there again, who will be held responsible?
After Lu Yongheng refused to take over Sai Wan on behalf of Lu Yongqiang, he still had to ask for the reward. Lu Yongheng asked for money directly. Originally, Lu Yongheng had discussed with Lu Yongqiang and was ready to ask for some money to make up for his losses.
Unexpectedly, the elders of the society refused to agree, especially the two old men who were in charge of the public accounts. They insisted that there was no money in the public accounts, acting like scoundrels who wanted money more than their lives. Lu Yongheng was so angry that he wanted to curse. After a lot of wrangling, the reward was temporarily put on record, saying that they would discuss it after Lu Yongqiang recovered from his injuries.
Just because Luk Wing Keung looked down on the position of Sai Wan Tong leader didn't mean others didn't look down on it either. Eventually, even Leung Kwan couldn't help but intervene. It was Leung Kwan's intervention that caused the Tong meeting to end in a sour mood.
After Lu Yongqiang made it clear that he would not accept the Sai Wan Gang, everyone started vying for the position of the leader of the Sai Wan Gang.
Han Bin recommended his subordinate Dao Zai Qing, Wu Liang recommended his subordinate Hui Gou, and Fei Lao Li recommended Zhang Shun.
Based on their contributions, these three people are enough to be the boss of Sai Wan. According to the previous rules, they should divide the Sai Wan business equally among themselves, and let them compete in their personal management abilities to decide who is the boss of Sai Wan.
However, the situation in Sai Wan is special now, and someone needs to take over as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. Naturally, we cannot follow the old rules. Later, someone proposed a vote by raising hands.
This show of hands created a thorny situation. Thirteenth Sister, Han Bin, Dragon Ball, and Pretty Mom supported Dao Zai Qing. Small Eyes, Wuliang, Prince Edward, and Ma Wangjian supported Greyhound. Fatty Lai supported Zhang Shun, and Pretty Kun simply abstained.
The only people with voting rights in Hongxing, apart from the twelve leaders, are the leader and the White Paper Fans of the society, with a total of fourteen votes.
Big Boss B is dead, Chui Shuiji ran away, Chen Yao, the blank paper fan, is not here, and Yau Ma Tei has no leader now. At most, there are only ten votes.
Now that Knife and Gray were on the same ticket, the election was unworkable. Just when everyone was about to start another round of wrangling, Liang Kun actually proposed that he temporarily take charge of the Sai Wan area. As for who would take the position of leader of the Sai Wan gang, he said that he would decide after the Causeway Bay area was decided.
As the leader of the Hung Hing gang, Liang Kun controls a piece of land in Yau Ma Tei, so naturally no one would say anything. However, if he sets his sights on Sai Wan, no one would agree.
The reason is very simple. No one wants Liang Kun's power to grow bigger, and everyone is also considering themselves. After all, Liang Kun can target the Sai Wan gang today, and maybe he will dare to target his own gang later.
After Leung Kwan finished speaking, except for Fatty Lai, the other eight leaders all opposed Leung Kwan to be in charge of Sai Wan.
Seeing that everyone was against it, Liang Kun brought up the Causeway Bay gang again and proposed that Lu Yongqiang be in charge of the Causeway Bay gang.
After hearing Liang Kun's proposal, Lu Yongheng almost agreed wholeheartedly, but he did not have the right to make the decision. As for those who had the decision-making power, except for Xiyan, who had a good relationship with Lu Yongqiang, all others opposed it.
Afterwards, Liang Kun suggested that Da Fei be in charge of Causeway Bay. The reason was that four of the original five candidates had already given up, and now only Da Fei was left, so Da Fei should be in charge of the Causeway Bay gang.
But the final result was that except for Ma Wangjian, everyone else was against it, even Fatty Li, who was in the same boat with Liang Kun.
This didn't work, and that didn't work either. In the end, Liang Kun got angry and left Zhongyi Hall with a grim face. The meeting ended in a bad mood.
Lu Yongheng recounted the situation at the meeting and said, "Brother, do you think Liang Kun really wants to take over the Sai Wan Gang?"
Lu Yongqiang sneered and said, "Our Brother Kun is quite clever. He's not planning to take over the Sai Wan Gang, he's planning to take over Han Bin. If nothing unexpected happens, Dao Zai Qing will be the leader of the Sai Wan Gang in the future."
After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Lu Yongheng pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, are you mistaken? Daozi Qing is Han Bin's man. How dare Liang Kun let Daozi Qing be the leader of the Sai Wan Gang? Isn't he afraid that Han Bin is eyeing the position of the leader?"
Lu Yongqiang sneered and said, "Chen Yao, Chui Shuiji, and Liang Ma were attacked one after another, but no one has mentioned this matter until now. Why is that? Because everyone is a wise person. They all know that this matter is inseparable from Liang Kun, and they also know why they were attacked.
Under these circumstances, do you think everyone will let Liang Kun retain the title? His position as the leader and leader will end after this term.
Ah Heng, after you said that Liang Kun is no longer the leader, does he want Jiang Tiansheng to be the leader, or does he want Han Bin to be the leader?
The reason why Liang Kun didn't directly support Dao Zai Qing today is that he and Han Bin haven't reached an agreement on the terms. If the two of them had reached an agreement, Dao Zai Qing would probably be the leader of the Sai Wan Tong by now."
