"Huh? Hongmen sits in the hall, Du Fei, your status is not low, why don't you have the intention to fight for the leading brother?"
Ye Tian glanced at Du Fei with some surprise. You must know that Zuitang's status is second only to the leader and deputy leader, and his status in the gang is extremely high. Especially when the leader is seriously ill, many things are handled by Zuitang.
"Master, someone has suggested it to me. However, although I have some connections, I have been dealing with the Song family's affairs for these years, and my influence in the gang is far less than that of some people..."
Du Fei gave a bitter laugh and continued: "Just like Lei Hu, he is now in charge of the execution hall. In terms of real power, he is much bigger than me."
As the saying goes, political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Although Lei Hu did not dare to use the armed forces in his hands to deal with people in Hongmen, the people under him were a deterrent. Others should think carefully before offending Lei Hu.
All at once.
"If the Song family fully supports you, what are your chances of ascending to power?"
Ye Tian heard the words and laughed. The so-called influence is actually not as powerful as imagined. In front of money, everything is like a chicken or a dog. During the war in the Central Plains, almost everyone was against Chiang Kai-shek. The last alliance
Didn't it disintegrate under Jiang's Jinyuan offensive?
"Let me take the lead? Young...young master, are you kidding me?"
Du Fei was stunned by what Ye Tian said, but these words also caused a ripple in his heart. Hongmen represents the number one overseas Chinese force, and its position as the leader can make many people crazy.
In particular, Du Fei's father was once the leader of Hongmen. Both father and son became the leaders of this sect, which will definitely leave a good story in the history of Hongmen. Even though Du Fei had no intention of competing for the leader before, now he has been beaten by Ye Tian.
What he said was a bit tempting.
"With the original financial resources of the overseas Song family, I can compete with Lei Hu, and I'm almost five points sure..."
Du Fei thought about it in his mind, with a wry smile on his face, and said: "Now the Song family has suffered heavy losses, many businesses have stagnated, and the capital chain has been broken. Even with your support, I am not sure that I can succeed in taking over.
No more than 30%!”
Du Fei was very familiar with the current situation of Song Weilan's consortium.
This time, the trusteeship fund played a trick and almost emptied all the working capital of the consortium. Many projects that were being launched were shelved because of it. Lawsuits were even filed in many places. If one of them is not handled well, this huge business empire will be destroyed.
There is a possibility of collapse.
So Du Fei knew in his heart that even if Song Weilan could give him some support, it would be very limited. I am afraid that it would be very difficult for Song Weilan to come up with one to two hundred million US dollars now. His 30% certainty was already enough to comfort Ye Tian
’s statement.
"So low?"
After hearing Du Fei's words, Ye Tian frowned and said: "Du Fei, your father used to be the leading brother of Hongmen. Overseas, Hongmen has a prosperous scene today. He is the same as your father."
If you can’t escape the relationship, aren’t there some old people who support you?”
Hongmen is a folk gang formed in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. It has developed to this day, and although money is the leader, there is no doubt that without a broad network of people, it is absolutely difficult to move forward in Hongmen, otherwise there will be many rich people in the world.
After all, can they all become the bosses of Hongmen?
Just like Lei Hu, first of all, he is the leader of the Hongmen Punishment Hall. With this identity, he can take a peek at the dragon's throne.
Even though Song Xiaolong defrauded Song Weilan of tens of billions of dollars in funds, let alone the leader of Hongmen, he could not even reach the position of an ordinary gang leader. This is the tradition of Chinese gangs.
Du Fei shook his head and said: "Master, this 30% certainty comes from those old people. I have been away for too long. Now some young people in the gang no longer know me. If it weren't for those incense master hall
If the masters are all old people, I won’t even be 10% sure..."
As the saying goes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach. If a gang like Hongmen reaches the position of Xiangzhu Hall, it will be for life, and some gangs that are enemies of it do not dare to take the risk.
To touch someone of this status.
Because once they are killed or injured, it will definitely trigger an all-out war between the two gangs. This is something that no one of the modern gangs who are obsessed with making money can afford it. They all maintain such a balance with a tacit understanding.
But for those at the bottom or middle level of the gang, there is no such scruple. When fighting for territory, their mortality rate is still very high. They may be drinking together today, but they may die on the streets tomorrow.
Therefore, the staff at the bottom and middle levels changed very quickly. I don’t know how many times they changed in ten years. Du Fei had almost no contact with these people.
When Hongmen chooses the leader, the support of those middle-level personnel is also very important. This has also become Du Fei's shortcoming, so he has never even thought about taking the top position before.
After hearing Du Fei's explanation, Ye Tian was silent for a while, then suddenly looked up at Anna and said, "Anna, please accompany my mother to the bedroom to rest. After more than ten hours of flying, I am very tired."
.”
"I'm not tired!" Anna looked at Ye Tian strangely and said, "Master's spirit is also very good. Don't worry, young master, we often travel between continents, so we don't need to suffer from jet lag."
"I...I have nothing to say to you!"
Ye Tian rolled his eyes angrily at Anna's words. Even though Anna, a girl, spoke Chinese very well, the difference between Eastern and Western cultures was reflected at this moment.
Ye Tian's purpose in letting Anna and Song Weilan go back to the room was that he wanted to avoid talking about some things between them, especially because he didn't want his mother to hear them. However, Anna's dull mind was unable to understand what he meant.
"Xiaotian, why do you still want to save your mother?"
Although the situation at this time was not very good, Song Weilan was still amused by her son's speechless expression and Anna's frankness, and said: "Son, your mother has stayed abroad for decades, turning a company with an annual output value of only a few
An industry worth 100,000 US dollars has developed into a comprehensive group with tens of thousands of employees. It has seen some storms, so you don’t have to be afraid..."
Song Weilan's life is quite legendary. She grew up as a daughter of a wealthy family in Shanghai, and once became an educated youth in the countryside who had to work in the fields every day. Then she traveled alone to Europe and the United States, writing in the Western world.
A business legend was born.
In the past twenty years, Song Weilan has suffered several assassinations and narrowly missed death several times. Even though she is weak and delicate in front of her son, she still has a decisive and decisive side in her heart, otherwise she would also
It is impossible to accumulate such a huge wealth, it has been swallowed up by others long ago, and not even the bones are left.
"Mom, this is a gang thing, you don't need to know."
Ye Tian tilted his mouth, looked at Song Weilan, and said, "If you can trust me, let me handle this matter. You and Anna should go to the room first."
The family is the family, and the world is the world. Ye Tian has done so many things outside that ordinary people dare not even think about, but it has never had the slightest impact on the Ye family. Although this incident happened because of his mother,
But Ye Tian wanted to solve it in the Jianghu way.
"You, how could my mother not trust you?"
Song Weilan smiled half helplessly and half gratifiedly. Although her son acted very strongly, it was also a kind of care for her, and Song Weilan still felt very grateful.
Song Weilan stood up, waved to Anna, and said, "Anna, let's go into the room and let Ye Tian handle this matter!"
"Yes, Master!"
Anna followed Song Weilan. When she entered the room, she whispered in Song Weilan's ear: "Master, I have transferred back the manpower from Europe. They can arrive in San Francisco tomorrow at the latest. With them here, we want to leave."
It’s not difficult here!”
Song Weilan sighed and said in a low voice: "I understand, try not to conflict with Hongmen."
"Well, it turns out that mother is not completely unprepared, isn't she?"
Just when the bedroom door was closed, Ye Tian's eyes glanced there intentionally or unintentionally.
Although Song Weilan was very young when she was talking to Anna, she still couldn't escape Ye Tian's ears. He didn't expect that his mother, who had always been calm since coming to the United States, actually had such a back-up plan?
Not to mention, Ye Tian was really interested in the European manpower Anna mentioned. He didn't know why Anna had so much confidence in those people. She actually believed that as long as they arrived, they could take his mother out of San Francisco.
"Master, what do you want to say?"
Just when Ye Tian was stunned, Du Fei's voice came to his ears, and he was a little confused as to what Ye Tian needed to hide from Song Weilan and the other two.
After hearing Du Fei's words, Ye Tian came back to his senses and said straight to the point: "Du Fei, I won't beat around the bush with you. If Lei Zhenyue and Lei Hu die, how confident are you that you will be in charge?"
People in the world have always dealt with things very directly. Unlike politicians, physically destroying their enemies is often the first choice for people like Ye Tian.
Tolerance to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to oneself. Now that Lei Zhenyue and his son have given Ye Tian a sense of danger, he will naturally not be merciful.
"Master, you...what did you say?"
Although Du Fei couldn't say that his expression remained unchanged when Mount Tai collapsed before his eyes, he had experienced strong winds and waves. However, Ye Tian's light words made him suddenly change his expression. His buttocks seemed to be on fire, and his body was fierce.
The ground bounced off the sofa.
"I said, if I get rid of Lei Zhenyue and Lei Hu, can you control the entire Hongmen?" Looking into Du Fei's eyes, Ye Tian said word by word.
