"When you asked me to come over, you definitely didn't mean to moan out of necessity."
He was not very interested in the feud between Huo Shangyin and the wealthy families in Hong Kong, but he was worried that Huo Ziyan and Han Ziqi would be involved, so Ye Fan still wanted to have some snacks.
"Decades ago, a few years before I completely took over the Huo family, it was the most rapid and golden stage of Hong Kong City's development, but it was also the most barbaric and darkest period."
Huo Shangyin didn't care about Ye Fan's attitude. These days of self-cultivation made him feel more calm:
"At that time, in addition to the four major wealthy families in Hong Kong City, there was another person who was on equal footing with us. No, he should be half a step ahead of the four major wealthy families."
"He is Du Minggong from Hong Kong City."
"He has a multi-layered background. He is also the leader of the law enforcement team. He is in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, controls the officialdom, and controls the underground. He is known as the Shadow Governor."
"There was a saying at that time, Royal Queen, Du Gong of the Port City, which meant that he had great magical powers."
"Although the Du family was not as big as the four wealthy families at that time, its reputation and wealth were not inferior to ours at all."
"Not only did he and his subordinates run various illegal businesses, he also imposed exorbitant taxes on all parties and tried his best to squeeze them out, and occasionally kidnapped the nephews of rich people for blackmail."
"Thirty years ago, Du Minggong had one billion in cash in his hands, which put the four wealthy families to shame. They even had to borrow money from him sometimes."
He sighed: "But this kind of oppression and darkness also made countless people resent him to the extreme. He was enriched and tens of thousands suffered."
"It's a bit like Inspector Lei's rhythm."
Ye Fan smiled: "The four giants were probably no different from Du Minggong at that time, right?"
He did not believe that Huo Shangyin, a capitalist, had a benevolent heart.
"Ye Fan, I know what you mean!"
"I admit that our fortune is also bloody, and every copper is stained with blood, but compared to Du Minggong, we still have a bottom line."
"At least we know not to kill the goose to get the eggs, but we also know to let the benefits go to the people for harmonious development."
Huo Shangyin remained calm: "At least while we are getting rich, we are also supporting a large number of people in Hong Kong."
"It should be said that they made you rich, not you who supported the people of Hong Kong City."
Ye Fan sighed: "Let's continue talking about business."
"Du Minggong's oppression has caused deep resentment among the people, but the people have always been disorganized. No matter how angry they are, they just bang their heads against the wall."
"Without the rich and powerful people taking the lead, they dare not stand up to protest or challenge Du Minggong. As long as they can survive, they will try their best to endure it."
"As for the four wealthy families and other wealthy people, although Du Minggong looks ugly, he is from the same class after all, and his interests have not been harmed too much..."
"So the four wealthy families can tolerate it as long as they can."
"This invisibly fueled Du Minggong's arrogance and made him feel that he was the number one person in Hong Kong City."
"So he was not only greedy for money, but also regarded the women in Hong Kong as his third palace and sixth courtyard."
"Not only does he keep female students in captivity, but he also often fights with powerful people from all over the world. He once drowned the nephew of the Qian family in the sea for an actress."
"Even so, he is still not satisfied. He wanders around the streets with others when he has time. If he likes any woman, he will ask her to book a room in a hotel."
"If you don't go, at least you will be kidnapped, and at worst, your family will be in trouble as well."
"Over the past few years, thousands of innocent women have been violated, and many female relatives of the four wealthy families have also been violated."
"The four giants couldn't bear it anymore, so they raised their arms and united all forces to defeat the enemy."
"They invited Duke Du to a Mid-Autumn Festival cocktail party. While we were drinking and drinking, I rushed out with my dead men and shot him and a dozen of his men to death."
"Afterwards, I purged all his forces overnight."
"That battle not only established the Huo family's status as the top of the four powerful families, but also made me the new head of the Huo family."
While turning the beads, Huo Shangyin spoke to Ye Fan. There was a ray of light on Ping He's face. It was the most glorious and unforgettable moment in his life.
"Du Gong committed suicide, and you were forced to fight back. It's a very common grievance. Although his descendants have grievances, they shouldn't be able to let go of them for decades."
Ye Fan stared at Huo Shangyin sharply: "Are you hiding something else?"
"That night, I was red-blooded, and you know my temperament. I am used to ruthlessly killing my subordinates who are defeated."
"I not only purged Mr. Du and all his men, I also exterminated the entire Du family."
"I almost killed more than a hundred of the Du family's nephews, wives, and daughters."
"It's a bit exaggerated to kill three tribes, but the two tribes are still barely there. I don't want the remnants of the Du family to take revenge in the future."
"It's a pity that some fish still slip through the net."
"Du Minggong's little daughter escaped from the disaster because she was traveling."
"The younger daughter knew that she could not go back to Hong Kong City, so she decisively sought refuge with her best friend in the Elephant Kingdom, and eventually hooked up with the Elephant King and became the fourth princess."
Huo Shangyin explained: "That is, the biological mother of the fourteenth prince Xiang Shahu."
"is her?"
Ye Fan was shocked. He didn't expect it to be related to the elephant killing the tiger. Wouldn't this also be related to Shen Xiaodiao?
It seems that the water in Hong Kong City is becoming more and more turbid.
Huo Shangyin's tone contained a hint of approval:
"This is a very smart, tolerant and resourceful woman."
“When I found out that my father’s family had died violently, I immediately sought refuge in the Xiang Kingdom and used my accumulated money to hire several experts to protect him.”
"In order to eradicate the root cause, I have sent killers to deal with her more than once, but she calmly resolved the crisis every time."
"Of course, I looked down upon her very much at that time, and the killers I sent out were not very popular."
"When I really took it seriously and wanted to hire Wu Yixiang to take action, she hooked up with the Elephant King and became the princess."
"As a result, the risk of attack became greater. We were also warned by the Elephant King. He could ensure that the princess would not take revenge, but we were not allowed to harm her again."
"Otherwise, if we assassinate her, he will also assassinate us in order to maintain the dignity of the Xiang Kingdom, leaving the four powerful families with no peace."
"We weighed it up and finally gave up on killing them all."
"The past few decades have indeed been peaceful and peaceful, but I didn't expect that the fourth princess flew to Hong Kong City today and went to pay homage to Du Minggong."
"They even dug up the grave, took out the bones, dug out the warheads one by one, and then sent them to the heads of the four wealthy families."
He smiled faintly: "The revenge of this blood debt is very obvious."
"I see!"
Ye Fan took a step forward, looked at the warhead and said:
"I just don't understand. If the Elephant King doesn't promise to live in peace, why can't he control her?"
"And the elephant killing the tiger is now at a critical juncture. The fourth princess's revenge on the four wealthy families at this time is a bit confusing."
There was a trace of confusion on his face.
"The Elephant King looks strong and healthy on the news, but in fact his body is very fragile."
Huo Shangyin told Ye Fan what he knew: "Now I have to take a life-saving injection almost every day to maintain my condition."
"Now his focus is also on the Seventh Princess. He wants to rely on her happiness to extend his life. He doesn't have much energy to care about these things."
"As for the Fourth Princess's revenge at this time, it is because she had a physical examination a week ago and found out that she had lung cancer."
"She was worried that she would die suddenly and not be able to avenge Du Minggong, so she followed the elephant to kill the tiger and came to Hong Kong City."
His tone was solemn:
"This also means that she won't have much time before she becomes very crazy..."
