“Sigh…”
Outside the villa, Wei Ji Xiang felt a bit uneasy.
He didn’t know if Jiang Tian Zheng would see him, and what the Jianghu would think of him when this news got out.
After Ruby had spoken with him, Wei Ji Xiang had thought about it for a long time.
Indeed, now that Hong Tai was gone, there was no better organization for him than Hong Xing.
“Master wants you to come in.”
Just when Wei Ji Xiang was feeling uneasy, Zhen Gang walked out from inside, speaking to Wei Ji Xiang.
“Thank you!”
Wei Ji Xiang expressed his gratitude and then followed behind Zhen Gang, entering the villa and coming before Jiang Tian Zheng.
“Mr. Jiang, hello.”
After speaking, Wei Ji Xiang stood there with some uneasiness, not knowing what else to say.
“I know why you’re here.” Jiang Tian Zheng looked at Wei Ji Xiang, thought for a moment, and then spoke, “If you’re willing, go to Yuen Long and follow Abu. I’ll promote you when the opportunity arises.”
For Jiang Tian Zheng, Wei Ji Xiang was a usable asset, but he wasn’t indispensable.
Just so happened, Abu was also busy in Yuen Long, and having Wei Ji Xiang go there was just the right thing to do.
“Thank you, Mr. Jiang, I’m willing.” Wei Ji Xiang hurriedly nodded in response.
He wasn’t picky, as long as he could join Hong Xing, that was enough.
Even if he had to start from the bottom, he believed that with his abilities, he would eventually succeed.

“Yao Ge, you’re here.”
On the other side, in Causeway Bay, seeing Chen Yao arrive, Da Lao B greeted him enthusiastically.
“B Ge, your bar has quite a lot of people.” Chen Yao followed Da Lao B into the bar, smiling and saying.
“Yao Ge, you flatter me.” Da Lao B let out a hearty laugh, then led Chen Yao to a private room.
“A Nan, the rest of you go out, I have some private matters to discuss with Yao Ge.” After a few casual exchanges, Da Lao B gestured to Chen Hao Nan and the other few younger brothers.
“Yes, B Ge.”
Chen Hao Nan responded, then led Shan Ji and the others out of the private room.
“Nan Ge, do you think Yao Ge came to see B Ge for something?” Shan Ji looked at Chen Hao Nan with some curiosity, asking.
“Don’t pry, what you need to know, you’ll naturally find out.” Chen Hao Nan glanced at Shan Ji.
Sometimes, knowing too much wasn’t necessarily a good thing, and besides, Chen Hao Nan didn’t really know why Chen Yao came to see B Ge.
…
“A B, let’s not beat around the bush.”
Inside the private room, after Chen Hao Nan and the others went out, Chen Yao looked at Da Lao B, asking earnestly, “I want to know, how do you view Mr. Jiang?”
“Yao Ge, you know me.”
Da Lao B heard this, his expression also becoming serious, he looked at Chen Yao and said, “I, Da Lao B, don’t have many virtues, but the one I do have is loyalty.”
“Yao Ge, you don’t need to try and probe me, I know Mr. Jiang sent you over.”
“Please tell Mr. Jiang from Yao Ge, as long as I, A B, am in Hong Xing, I will always be loyal to Mr. Jiang.”
Just as Da Lao B said, he didn’t have many virtues, his only virtue was his unwavering loyalty.
“Good, I will convey your words to Mr. Jiang.”
Chen Yao looked seriously at Da Lao B, after a while, he nodded.
Then, Chen Yao took his leave from Da Lao B.
“Yao Ge, I’ll see you out.”
Da Lao B stood up, opened the private room door, and Chen Hao Nan and the others were waiting outside.
“B Ge, Yao Ge.”
Seeing Da Lao B and Chen Yao come out, Chen Hao Nan hurriedly greeted them.
“Follow A B well, the organization will not mistreat you.” Chen Yao smiled slightly at Chen Hao Nan and the others, patted their shoulders, in a gesture of encouragement.
“Yes, Yao Ge.”
Chen Hao Nan and the others quickly replied.
After seeing Chen Yao off, Da Lao B pondered for a moment, then instructed Chen Hao Nan and the others, “Clean yourselves up, I’ll take you to meet Mr. Jiang when I have the chance.”
“Yes, B Ge.”
Chen Hao Nan and the others heard this, and their faces lit up with joy.
If they could meet Mr. Jiang, it would be a huge opportunity for them.
As long as they could make a good impression on Mr. Jiang and be remembered by him, their chances of rising through the ranks would be greater.
…
“A B said this to you?”
Inside the villa, Jiang Tian Zheng looked at the returned Chen Yao, asking.
“Yes, Mr. Jiang.”
Chen Yao nodded in response.
After returning, Chen Yao told him everything about his conversation with Da Lao B, without leaving out any details.
“How trustworthy do you think A B is?” Jiang Tian Zheng looked at Chen Yao, asking earnestly.
As for Da Lao B, Jiang Tian Zheng’s knowledge of him was limited to the movies.
In the movies, Da Lao B was indeed loyal to Jiang Tian Sheng, but how much of that loyalty was genuine, was unknown.
“7 out of 10.”
Chen Yao thought for a moment, giving his answer.
Da Lao B wasn’t Chen Yao, a score of 7 out of 10 was already quite high for him.
“A B’s few subordinates, Chen Hao Nan, Shan Ji and the others, how do you think they are?” Jiang Tian Zheng looked at Chen Yao, asking.
There were always differences between movies and reality.
Furthermore, this was a world where countless Hong Kong films were merged together, there was no such thing as a protagonist’s halo.
No one could guarantee that Chen Hao Nan and the others would always escape danger every time they encountered it.
“If you give them a chance to prove themselves, their abilities wouldn’t be any worse than Ma Wang Jian.” Chen Yao thought for a moment, before speaking.
Among the twelve core members of Hong Xing, Ma Wang Jian was the one with the least ability.
Chen Yao’s meaning was very simple.
Even if Chen Hao Nan and the others were incompetent, it would still be more than enough to replace Ma Wang Jian as a core member.
Jiang Tian Zheng nodded slightly, then instructed Chen Yao, “Inform A B, let him bring Chen Hao Nan and Shan Ji to see me.”
Jiang Tian Zheng still needed to see for himself whether Chen Hao Nan and Shan Ji were usable.
“Yes, Mr. Jiang.”
Chen Yao nodded in response.
