"Huang San, if you're going to give me face, call me Third Brother. If not, just call me Lao San."

Huang San laughed heartily.

"Is it Huang San, one of the three Huang brothers from the Dongjiang Guerrilla Force?"

Upon hearing Huang San's name, Li Jun's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt a deep sense of respect.

The Dongjiang Guerrilla Team, Liu Heizi of Liangyou Ice Room, and the three Huang brothers—even decades later, their legendary deeds are still told in the Greater Bay Area. For example, Huang San joined the Dongjiang Guerrilla Team at the age of 13. He once went deep into Guangzhou, which was occupied by the Japanese, to assassinate a traitorous high-ranking official. He escaped unscathed from the encirclement of hundreds of people.

Li Jun also realized that the rumor that He Xian had gained a foothold in Haojiang with the help of the Dongjiang Guerrilla Team was probably true.

"The Dongjiang Guerrilla was something that happened decades ago, so let's not bring it up again."

Huang San waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Third Brother!"

Li Jun solemnly clasped his hands in a fist salute to Huang San.

Just the fact that he risked his life to fight the Japanese deserves Li Jun's utmost respect for Huang San.

Of course, respect is respect, and interests are interests. Li Jun will not give up his own interests just because of respect.

“Ah Jun, the sea breeze is quite cold. I don’t mind, but Mr. He is getting old and can’t stand it.”

Huang San, seizing the opportunity, also started calling Li Jun "Ah Jun".

"Mr. He, Third Brother, please."

Li Jun gestured for He Xian and Huang San to enter. As for He Xin... if He Xin hadn't walked past Li Jun, he would have forgotten that such a person even existed here.

ten minutes later.

Li Jun, He Xian, Huang San, and He Xin entered the only three-story house on Baishi Island.

Guo Kailin obediently listened to Li Jun and was resting on the third floor. It was as if the entire house was only occupied by the four of them, ensuring absolute secrecy.

"Ah Jun, I understand what happened tonight. These things aren't about who's right or wrong, but about who wins and who loses. Now, 130, you've won. What kind of spoils do you want?"

After entering the house, He Xian ignored He Xin and spoke directly.

He Xin's eyes flickered slightly when he heard He Xian's words, but he ultimately remained silent. In Haojiang, no matter what the matter was, as long as He Xian wanted to make the decision, he had the right to do so.

“Mr. He, you are the King of Macau, this is your territory, so it would be better if you spoke first.”

Li Jun replied with a smile.

The worst thing you can do in a negotiation is to state your terms in advance. If Li Jun speaks first, then those terms will definitely be the highest standard for the negotiation. But if He Xian speaks first, then the terms he states will definitely be the lowest standard for the negotiation.

After listening to Li Jun's words, He Xian smiled and shook his head, then said, "Since Nie Aotian is dead, his business and shares are all yours, and you can also give him five percent of the shares that A Xin holds."

Hearing He Xian's words, He Xin frowned slightly. He Xin said it as if it were a casual remark, but just that one sentence was worth HK$50 billion. With Nie Aotian's many years of management plus He Xin's five percent stake, HK$50 billion was more or less.

Moreover, for He Xin, giving up his 5% stake means far more than just losing a billion Hong Kong dollars.

The entire SJM Holdings company, not to mention the hidden shares held by bigwigs in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia in Macau, has a total of six shareholders.

He Xin, Nie Aotian, the Lin family of Hong Kong Island, the Li family of Hong Kong Island, Lei Yingdong, and Fu Jiajun, the only son of Fu Laorong.

He Xin holds 27 percent of the shares, Nie Aotian 13 percent, the Lin family 9 percent, Lei Yingdong 17 percent, the Li family 29 percent, and Fu Jiajun 6 percent.

Among these shareholders, the Lin family and Lei Yingdong supported He Xin, and it was precisely because of this that He Xin, who controlled 52% of the shares, was able to steadily suppress Nie Aotian.

However, if He Xin relinquishes 5% of the shares, his controlling stake will fall below 50%, which is very dangerous for him.

However, before He Xin could speak, Li Jun objected, "Mr. He, really? I've been busy all night, and you think you can get rid of me with this little bit?"

"..."

He Xin could only be speechless at Li Jun's words. Earning 50 billion Hong Kong dollars in one night, and that's not enough?

However, to He Xin's surprise, He Xian actually nodded and said to Li Jun with a smile, "The conditions are meant to be discussed. Now you can tell me your conditions."

“Mr. He, my men told me that while he was working, gangsters from Macau attacked him.”

Li Jun didn't mention any conditions, but instead uttered these words quietly.

"You want a piece of the Macau underworld pie? No problem, go ahead and eat as much as you can, how much you can eat depends on your ability."

He Xian directly stated Li Jun's thoughts.

"..."

He Xian's words left Li Jun speechless for a moment, with only one thought in his mind: Is that even possible?

The biggest difference between the Macau underworld and the Hong Kong underworld is that the Macau underworld makes money really easily and is really rich. Just by doing junket business every year, they can easily make billions of Hong Kong dollars. He Xian's words are equivalent to giving Li Jun billions of dollars for free every year.

Standing next to He Xian, He Xin was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He even wondered if Li Jun was He Xian's illegitimate son. No, even if he was an illegitimate son, he shouldn't be treated this way.

They're giving away shares and influence; if they could give them even more, they might as well just give Li Jun the title of "King of Gambling in Macau."

Coincidentally, Huang San, standing behind He Xian, was thinking the same thing as He Xin. He was trying hard to recall the whole process of accompanying He Xian to Hong Kong Island more than 20 years ago...

"What's wrong, Ah Jun? Is there anything else you're worried about?"

Seeing that Li Jun did not speak for a moment, He Xian asked with a smile.

"Mr. He, your sincerity is too much, I have no objection."

"Don't curse the one who apologizes, and don't hit a smiling face." He Xian's attitude and conditions left Li Jun completely bewildered.

Initially, Li Jun's plan was to gather He Xin, Nie Aotian, and Lei Gong together, extract some benefits from them, and then send them to their deaths. As for whether or not Macau would descend into chaos, and how chaotic it would become, that was none of Li Jun's concern.

Although Li Jun was confident, he wasn't confident enough to establish himself in Haojiang and take control of everything.

To accomplish all this, He Xian's approval was required. Behind He Xian stood no ordinary entity; it was an even more terrifying force than the United States behind Eugene, and one that Li Jun could not afford to provoke under any circumstances.

So, after He Xian called, Li Jun knew that He Xin was probably doomed tonight, and he would have to squeeze more benefits out of him.

In the end, Li Jun never expected He Xian to give so much...

Upon hearing Li Jun's words, He Xian nodded slightly, then turned to look at He Xin, who was completely stunned, and said with a smile, "Xin, you shouldn't have any objections to these conditions, right?"

"I……"

At that moment, He Xin's mind was blank. After being asked a question by He Xian, he came back to his senses. After stammering for a few seconds, he nodded helplessly and said, "I have no objection."

After saying that, He Xin became completely withdrawn.

"Since none of you have any objections, then this matter is settled."

After saying this, He Xian looked at He Xin and Huang San and said calmly, "San, Xin, you two go out for a bit. I need to talk to Jun about some things alone."

"Yes, Mr. He."

Upon hearing He Xian's words, Huang San and He Xin immediately turned and left, with Huang San thoughtfully closing the door behind them.

"Ah Jun, aren't you curious why I'm giving you so many benefits?"

After Huang San and He Xin left, He Xian looked at Li Jun and asked with a smile:

Upon hearing He Xian's question, Li Jun remained silent, simply looking at He Xian and waiting for his answer.

Before I tell you the answer, Ah Jun, let me tell you a story.

He Xian's expression turned somewhat serious, and he said in a deep voice, "That was more than 20 years ago. I remember that day very clearly. I was doing business with the Tan family in Surabaya, Java. After we finished, I was preparing to take a car back to the hotel."

"Then I saw a lot of indigenous people rushing towards my direction, which is the Chinese community."

“My driver, who is a local Chinese, told me that the situation has been very tense recently. The indigenous people feel that we Chinese have taken away their land, food and women. They believe that only by killing all of us Chinese can they take back their land, food and women.”

"Then, for my safety, my driver immediately drove me back to the hotel, and I left Java that afternoon and returned to Haojiang."

“In the following month, 30 Chinese died in Java, including my driver. His whole family died. He was a very good man. His son was only 8 years old. He told me that he wanted to send his son back to China because he felt that he had been away from his hometown for too long and had almost forgotten what his hometown was like. He did not want his son to forget his hometown forever.”

At this point, He Xian lowered his head and remained silent for a while before looking up at Li Jun and asking, "Jun, do you know how many Chinese people there are in Southeast Asia now?"

Li Jun slowly shook his head.

"Including those who were forced to change their names or were forced to assimilate, there are 2 million, a full 2 million."

He Xian said slowly.

He continued, “After that incident, the reaction from the Chinese community in Southeast Asia was huge. Many wealthy businessmen set up numerous organizations to protect the interests of the Chinese community in Southeast Asia. However, these organizations were not united and their proposals were varied and inconsistent.”

“Some believe in establishing a Chinese nation to protect the rights and interests of Chinese people, while others want to form political parties in their own countries to seize power and protect Chinese people. Still others hope to establish closer ties of interest with indigenous people and use those interests to protect Chinese people.”

“Some people and I initially supported the first proposition: to establish a nation belonging to us Chinese. We succeeded, and we failed; that person betrayed us.”

Upon hearing this, Li Jun instantly understood that the person He Xian was referring to was Singapore's first Prime Minister.

"We've supported many people since then. They don't need to establish a nation; they just need to be able to deter the indigenous people of Southeast Asia. As long as we Chinese aren't bullied in Southeast Asia, that's enough. But without exception, they all failed. Now, I'm almost in my grave, and my hope is getting smaller and smaller..."

He Xian's voice grew softer and softer, just like his hope.

"So, Mr. He, you think I'm capable?"

Li Jun finally understood He Xian's meaning and why he had given him almost half of the things from Haojiang.

“Ah Jun, if you hadn’t done those things in the Golden Triangle, if you hadn’t fought so resolutely against the foreigners in Hong Kong, I wouldn’t have chosen you. I’m getting old, and even if there’s only a sliver of hope, I’d still want to give it a shot, so at least I won’t die with regrets.”

He Xian said slowly.

Then, before Li Jun could speak, He Xian continued, "Jun, our generation is the last generation to experience the conflict of national consciousness. After I'm gone, my next generation will inherit everything from me, and their vision will only be focused on Macau, and at most Hong Kong Island. At that time, there will really be no hope."

He Xian shook his head, a wry smile appearing on his face, and said, "But Ah Jun, don't put too much pressure on yourself. It's normal that you can't do what we old guys have been trying to do our whole lives."

"Mr. He, based on what you just said, you deserve my respect. I dare not say that I did a great job, but I can say that I will do my best."
