Qi Tongwei throws a sniper rifle, scaring Hou Liangping and Sha Ruijin to their knees

Chapter 253: The Hongmen Banquet in Hong Kong!

At the lakeside in the suburbs far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Qi Tongwei's voice was steady and unquestionable: "Big D, Jimmy, I want you to officially take over He Liansheng. Not only take it over, but also make it bigger and stronger. Only in this way can we dig deep into the inside story of the Zhao Family and Liang Family Foundation. This is your only way out, and it is also your opportunity to seek redemption for your past sins."

After hearing this, Da D and Jimmy felt mixed emotions. After leaving the suburbs, Jimmy secretly glanced at Da D, wondering if he would be unhappy with this arrangement. After all, in the underworld, status and face are often as important as life. However, to his surprise, Da D's eyes revealed a hint of determination and approval.

Big D took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "Jimmy, we have been in this world for so long, when have we ever had a peaceful life? Look at me, I was plotted against by Brother Le before and almost lost my life. Now Mr. Qi has given us such an opportunity. Although the risk is very high, it is better than sitting and waiting to die. Besides, I have seen through it, just like when I saw Gao Qiqiang before, I seemed to see a second me, struggling in the whirlpool of this world, even my family and children may be implicated at any time. I don't want to go on like this, I want to fight for them A way out, even if this road is full of thorns."

Jimmy nodded slightly, knowing that what Big D said was true. In this underworld where the strong prey on the weak, although they had once been glorious, only they knew the dangers and helplessness behind it. "Big D, since you said so, then I will do it with you. However, to take over He Liansheng, we have to solve the current troubles first. Ni Yongxiao is not easy to deal with. He can dominate the gang through violence. His methods are cruel and ruthless. His subordinate He Chen is not a pushover either. Although he does not obey Ni Yongxiao, he is not someone we can easily control."

Big D sneered, "Humph, no matter how powerful Ni Yongxiao is, he has his weaknesses. According to the information given by Mr. Qi, we will first contact Chen Yongren, the undercover agent arranged inside He Chen. As long as he can encourage He Chen to fight back against Ni Yongxiao, we can add fuel to the fire behind the scenes, and maybe we can reap the benefits."

Jimizi immediately took out his cell phone and dialed Chen Yongren's number. Chen Yongren's low and cautious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello?" Jimizi said softly: "Yongren, it's me, Jimizi. Now I have an important task for you. Find a way to encourage He Chen to fight back against Ni Yongxiao. Big D will give the necessary support. This is related to our future and the future of Liansheng. It is also your chance to clear your name." Chen Yongren was silent for a moment and replied: "I know, I will do my best, but you must also be prepared. He Chen is not so easily convinced."

While Da D and Jimmy were planning, Hua Banhu was also busy. He knew that Da D and Jimmy, who had been released, might have rebelled. Once they cooperated with the police, it would be a huge threat to him and the forces behind them. So, he and Ni Yongxiao carefully arranged a Hongmen Banquet, not only summoning many of his men, but also arranging gunmen in the dark, waiting for Da D to fall into the trap, and then they would kill him in one fell swoop to eliminate the trouble forever.

Jimizi received the news very quickly. He found Da D anxiously and said, "Da D, Hua Banhu and Ni Yongxiao have set up a Hongmen Banquet. This is obviously a trap. We can't go." Da D frowned and fell into deep thought. Jimizi thought he was wavering and continued to persuade him, "As long as we don't go, hide for the time being, and think of other ways to deal with it. There is no need to rush forward when you know it is a dead end."

However, Big D slowly raised his head with a firm look in his eyes: "Jimmy, if we don't go, all the gangs in Hong Kong will think we are undercover. We will have no place to stand in this underworld, and He Liansheng will fall apart in an instant. But if we go, even if we die, we can preserve the reputation of He Liansheng, and give you and Mr. Qi a chance to make a comeback. This is our only choice."

Jimmy's eyes widened. He didn't expect Big D to be so resolute. He still insisted, "Big D, don't be impulsive. This is too dangerous. Even Fang Xinwu and Gao Qiqiang think we can't go. We can't risk our lives."

Big D patted Jimmy's shoulder gently and said, "Jimmy, I know you are doing this for my own good. But I am not a coward. In this world, there are things that you have to face sooner or later. There is no point in running away."

Just when Jimi was about to persuade him again, Da D's phone suddenly rang. It was Qi Tongwei calling. Da D quickly answered the call. Qi Tongwei's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Da D, I know the dilemma you are facing. Don't worry about going to the banquet. I just got the news that although Huabanhu and his men have set a trap, they are not united internally. There are actually differences of interest between Ni Yongxiao and Huabanhu. They both want to gain the most benefit from this fight. You can use this to cleverly deal with the banquet. I will also arrange someone to meet you nearby to ensure your safety. Also, regarding their possible interrogation, you should respond according to my previous instructions."

After hearing what Qi Tongwei said, Big D felt more confident. He hung up the phone, looked at Jimmy and Fang Xinwu, Gao Qiqiang and others who were worried, and said confidently: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Mr. Qi has revealed some key information to me, and I know what's going on. This time, I have to not only save my life, but also open up the situation for our next plan."

Jimmy looked at Big D's determined eyes and knew that it was useless to persuade him. He sighed helplessly: "Big D, since you have made up your mind, I will go with you. If we die, we will die together."

Big D shook his head slightly: "Jimmy, you can't go. You have to stay. If something happens to me at the banquet, you can still take charge of the situation and connect with Mr. Qi to complete our mission. The future of Liansheng cannot be bet on me alone."

Jimmy wanted to argue, but Big D waved his hand and said, "It's settled. Fang Xinwu, Gao Qiqiang, you also help me take care of Jimmy."

Afterwards, Da D set out on the road to the Hongmen Banquet alone. He knew that the road ahead was full of dangers, but his steps were extremely firm. He thought of his past in the martial arts world, those days of fighting, killing, and intrigue, and now it seemed that they had become the foreshadowing of his road to redemption.

The car that Big D was riding in slowly drove to the banquet venue. The street scene outside the car window passed by like a slide show, but his thoughts drifted back to the past disputes in the underworld. He remembered that when he first joined He Liansheng, he was just an unknown person. With his ruthlessness and a little luck, he gradually emerged in the gang. However, as his status rose, he also felt more and more the cruelty and ruthlessness of the underworld. Every fight was like walking on a tightrope, and one could be crushed to pieces if he was not careful. Just like the time when he was calculated by Brother Le, he was full of joy and thought it was an ordinary party, but he almost died. The cold lake water almost swallowed him, and the fear of death enveloped him so vividly for the first time. From then on, he understood that in this underworld, there are no eternal friends or eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

Now, he is facing a life-and-death test again, but this time, he is no longer the big D who only knows how to fight and kill and fight for fame and fortune. He carries the future of He Liansheng on his shoulders, and also has a desire for redemption. He knows that if he can successfully complete the task assigned by Qi Tongwei, he can not only find a way out for himself and his family, but also perhaps make up for the mistakes he has made to some extent.

As the car approached the destination, Big D straightened his clothes and took a deep breath to calm himself down. He knew that from the moment he stepped into the banquet hall, a thrilling game would begin.

Arriving at the banquet venue, Big D walked in with his head held high. The banquet hall was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere. Ni Yongxiao and Huabanhu sat in the main seats, surrounded by their trusted subordinates, staring at Big D with unfriendly eyes. Huabanhu and Ni Yongxiao were shocked to see Big D coming alone. They originally thought that Big D would either not dare to come or would come with many subordinates to fight to the death, but they did not expect him to come alone.

Ni Yongxiao spoke first, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes: "Big D, you are really brave to come." Big D sneered: "Brother Xiao, your Hongmen Banquet is so big, how can I not come to join in the fun?" The spotted tiger said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, Big D, why were you arrested before? And you were arrested in the suburbs, who did you meet there? And why did Ah Le die?"

Big D smiled calmly and said, "Do you all think that I joined forces with the police to get rid of Brother Le? Humph, in your eyes, do I, Big D, not have that ability? Do you think I am no match for Brother Le?" The spotted tiger snorted, "Isn't that so? Brother Le has a lot of influence in the gang. What can you do to him?"

Big D sat down slowly, poured himself a glass of wine, drank it all, and then said, "Brother Le has brought this upon himself. Jimmy and I were doing business inland, and we all wanted to get involved in the infrastructure business, which was a good opportunity to make money. But Brother Le was greedy and wanted to take on everything, leaving no room for the brothers. He also said that he would continue to be the next leader, and wanted to make Heliansheng his own internal industry, covering the sky with one hand. Isn't he doing this to push us into a dead end? So I acted decisively and killed him."

Ni Yongxiao and Hua Banhu looked at each other. Although they were a little skeptical, they also felt that what Da D said made sense. Da D then changed the subject and looked directly at Hua Banhu: "Also, let me tell you, Brother Le is the undercover that Qi Tongwei planted here. Think about it, why was Li Dakang's business exposed? Why did the police know so much about our affairs? It was all leaked by Brother Le. He wanted to take over the entire He Liansheng and then work for Qi Tongwei. Do you think a person like Qi Tongwei would cooperate with me, a drug dealer? He and I are enemies."

After hearing what Big D said, everyone started to whisper. Ni Yongxiao frowned and thought. He knew that although Big D was a bit reckless, he would not lie about such things. Hua Banhu was Zhao Ruilong's agent in Hong Kong Island. He knew that things were not that simple, but it was difficult to refute at this time.

Big D continued, "There is another reason why I acted decisively. Brother Le has contracted 70% of the business in Lincheng and Luzhou, and has achieved a monopoly, and he won't share the profits with us. Brother Xiao, what about you? How much business did they give you?" Ni Yongxiao's face showed a trace of annoyance when he heard this. He knew that Zhao Ruilong gave him more business because He Liansheng was a big family, and Jimmy and Big D's recent business had a tendency to be whitewashed. But now that Big D said this, it seemed that he was being treated specially, and everyone else was kept in the dark. He couldn't help but doubt the intentions of the spotted tiger, and looked at the spotted tiger with a hint of questioning in his eyes.

The spotted tiger felt a little uncomfortable when being looked at by Ni Yongxiao, and could only say vaguely: "Brother Xiao, don't listen to Da D's instigation. We have bigger business for you, but it's not the time yet." Ni Yongxiao sneered in his heart. He knew that these people looked down on him and thought that the money in his hands was dirty, and he looked down on the Hong Kong Island police who were eyeing him covetously. After all, when he came to power, he used cruel means and directly killed the four elders. He was the only one in power, which was something the Hong Kong Island police didn't want to see. And because of the competition between Ah Le and Da D, and the promotion of some younger brothers, the internal forces of He Liansheng were relatively dispersed, which made the Hong Kong Island police feel more at ease.

Thinking of this, Ni Yongxiao had an idea in mind. He felt that instead of working with Hua Ban Hu to deal with Da D, it would be better to bypass Da D, or even cooperate with Da D to check and balance Hua Ban Hu and Zhao Ruilong's power in Hong Kong Island. In this way, his position in He Liansheng and Hong Kong Island might be more stable, and he would have more say.

Big D watched Ni Yongxiao's expression change, feeling proud in his heart. He knew that his words had worked, and it was up to Ni Yongxiao to decide what to do next. The situation at the Hongmen Banquet also became more complicated and subtle because of Big D's words.

The victory of this Hongmen Feast has improved the status of Big D and Jimmy in the underworld, and laid the foundation for them to take over and win. But they know that the road ahead is still full of challenges. They must plan more carefully and work closely with Qi Tongwei to find their own way in this black and white chess game, uncover the dark secrets behind the Zhao and Liang family foundations, and bring a ray of hope to the future of Hong Kong Island.

After returning to the base, Big D and Jimmy began to discuss the next plan. Jimmy looked at Big D and said, "Big D, although this time we succeeded, we can't let our guard down. We will definitely encounter a lot of resistance when we take over He Liansheng next." Big D nodded and said, "That's right, we have to stabilize the people inside He Liansheng first. Those who were originally loyal to Ni Yongxiao may not be convinced by us, so we have to find a way to win them over or eliminate them."

Jimmy thought for a moment and said, "I think we can start with some neutral elders, show them our sincerity and strength, and win their support. Then we can slowly deal with those stubborn elements." Big D agreed, "Well, this is a good idea. In addition, we have to continue to follow up on He Chen. There is no news from Chen Yongren yet, and I don't know if he has successfully instigated He Chen."

At this time, Da D's cell phone rang. It was Chen Yongren calling. Da D quickly answered the phone: "Yongren, what's the situation?" Chen Yongren said on the other end of the phone: "Da D, He Chen is somewhat tempted, but he is still hesitant. He is worried that if he rebels against Ni Yongxiao, he will be retaliated by other gangs." Da D frowned and said: "Tell He Chen that as long as he is willing to cooperate with us, we will protect his safety. Moreover, after we take over He Liansheng, his position in the gang will only be higher."

Chen Yongren replied, "Okay, I'll go and persuade him again." After Big D hung up the phone, he said to Jimmy, "It seems that He Chen needs some time. Let's deal with the internal affairs of He Liansheng first."
