Huo Wenyao smiled faintly, patted Lian Haodong on the shoulder, and then said,
"It's just a little business, nothing serious!"
"If we can't work on this project, we can still work on other projects!"
"Oh?!" Lian Haodong became interested upon hearing this and pressed for more information.
"I wonder what kind of business Yao-ge is talking about?"
Huo Wenyao's lips curled into a smile, and he immediately said,
"How's the bus company's business?"
After a pause, Huo Wenyao explained,
"I'm most wary of the routes that the transportation company bought. If Brother Dong is willing, we can definitely take a stake in them!"
"As for profits, all I can say is that the more Dong Ge invests, the more he earns!"
Upon hearing this, Lian Haodong showed a thoughtful expression, but then immediately refused.
"Let's just forget about this!"
"I have no interest in any of these things!"
Before Huo Wenyao could answer, Lian Haodong spoke decisively.
"Actually, I prefer to do things on the side!"
"This kind of legitimate business makes money too slowly for me!"
"So I can only appreciate Yao-ge's kindness in my heart!"
"That's a real pity!" Huo Wenyao sighed helplessly.
It is necessary to express feelings.
Since he hadn't managed to swindle any money from Lian Haodong, Huo Wenyao was naturally somewhat disappointed!
Immediately, Lian Haodong stood up and said...
"In that case, I won't bother you any longer, Brother Yao. I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving now!"
"No problem!" Huo Wenyao said with a smile.
"It's rare to meet you all, and I feel we get along really well. Let's play cards sometime!"
Upon hearing the words "playing cards," Lian Haodong's eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly,
"Brother Yao likes playing cards too?"
“Of course!” Huo Wenyao replied with a smile.
"How many people in the underworld don't like gambling?"
"What, is it strange that I'm a gambler?"
"Hahaha! Of course not!" Lian Haodong's tone suddenly became much more enthusiastic, and he said excitedly.
"I didn't expect Brother Yao to be one of us,"
"I, Lian Haodong, have no hobbies in my life, except for gambling!"
"Okay, I'll contact Brother Yao when I have a plan, and we'll go to the casino and dominate!"
"Okay!" Huo Wenyao nodded meaningfully in agreement.
When the conversation turned to gambling, his mood improved considerably. After striking up a conversation with Huo Wenyao and agreeing to play cards together again next time, he finally left.
Huo Wenyao watched Lian Haodong's departing figure, lost in thought.
At the same time, Lian Haodong's smile vanished instantly as he walked out the door.
Back in the car, his trusted henchman hurriedly asked,
"Brother Dong, how did the business deal go?"
Lian Haodong's expression immediately darkened, and he said coldly,
"That guy surnamed Huo doesn't know what's good for him!"
"He dares to refuse Brother Dong?!" the underling asked incredulously.
Lian Haodong nodded unhappily, then said coldly,
"I already had good news before I came; Huo Wenyao stipulated in the contracts he signed with the merchants that they were not allowed to sell heroin,"
"I just tested him, and sure enough, he refused,"
"You really think I'd believe you just because you made up some random excuse?"
"He even claimed that he had already found a drug lord in the Silver Triangle to infiltrate the drug trade!"
"Humph!"
"Do you really think I, Lian Haodong, would come to him to discuss business without doing any prior investigation?"
The younger brother frowned and said,
"Then what should we do?"
"Easy!" Lian Haodong waved his hand dismissively.
"This Huo Wenyao is probably considering his reputation, so he doesn't want to do business in heroin!"
"But even if he doesn't want to do it, he can't block my path to wealth!"
As Lian Haodong spoke, he couldn't help but recall how relentlessly he was being harassed by creditors lately. If he couldn't pay off his gambling debts soon, his older brother, Lian Haolong, would find out, and he'd be in for a good scolding.
And he'll probably lose his share of the club's profits this year.
To be honest, his gambling debts weren't even enough to cover three years' worth of gang profits!
The younger brother couldn't help but remind him from the side.
"But Brother Long said that Huo Wenyao is quite difficult to deal with. For the time being, we don't have any conflict of interest with him, so it's best not to go against him!"
"Otherwise, do you think I knew Huo Wenyao wasn't in the heroin business anymore, so why would I personally come to visit him?!" Lian Haodong immediately retorted coldly.
"Huo Wenyao is somewhat capable, but not to the point that I would personally visit him to seek cooperation and even agree to give him 50% of the profits!"
"I've already given him a lot of face!"
Younger brother:
Immediately, Lian Haodong gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
"But since this guy surnamed Huo is so shameless, I can't care anymore."
"I've already given him face; it's Huo Wenyao who's unwilling to accept it,"
"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for not saying hello!"
"What does Brother Dong mean?" the younger brother asked earnestly.
Lian Haodong said coldly, (Zhao Liaohao)
"Just send the guys downstairs to Tsim Sha Tsui to apply powder,"
"But remember, be very careful and don't let that guy surnamed Huo find out!"
After a pause, Lian Haodong said calmly,
"Once I pay back this money, I'll confront Huo Wenyao!"
"Yes!" the younger brother replied respectfully.
Immediately, Lian Haodong glanced at the gate, then coldly waved his hand and said,
"Let's go!"
"Yes!"
The car started and drove away.
By the windowsill, Huo Wenyao wore a thoughtful expression.
After seeing this, Tian Yangsi couldn't help but ask...
"Boss, is Lian Haodong up to something?"
"That should be it!" Huo Wenyao nodded.
"I can sense that this guy is driven to desperation by gambling debts. I wonder what kind of trouble he'll cause!"
After a moment's hesitation, Huo Wenyao gave the order.
"Have someone keep an eye on him; I'm sure he'll cause trouble!"
After a pause, Huo Wenyao added,
"Notify the merchants below to be on high alert lately, and not let anyone cause trouble on their own turf without them even noticing."
"Otherwise, you'll bear the consequences!"
"Yes!" Tian Yangsi accepted the order and left.
