Speaking of which, Fatty Li really is out of luck.
Just after the gang distributed their profits, Fatty Li found a pretty girl, rented a small cruise ship, and went out to sea for some fun.
But as fate would have it, he happened to see Crow from East Star and Luo Maosen making a deal for flour.
Although Hongxing forbids the sale of flour, Fatty Li had been secretly dealing in it on the side.
Seeing this, he recklessly steered his boat over to greet Crow.
That's why they say Fatty Li deserved his fate.
Not only did he go to see Crow, but he also brought along the woman next to him. Before he knew it, during their conversation, Crow mentioned that he was worried about leaks and decided to take him out.
As a result, Luo Maosen really did pull out a gun and killed him.
That's why Luo Maosen said he acted on Crow's orders to eliminate Fatty Li.
“Are you kidding me? You don’t understand?”
Crow looked at Luo Maosen, utterly speechless.
“We drug dealers never joke around.”
Luo Maosen retorted, but he also realized that he might have acted rashly.
“So what do we do now?”
No, he wasn't just being reckless.
For someone like Luo Maosen, who frequently traveled to Hong Kong to transport flour, he certainly knew what Hongxing was.
It was a gang as large as East Star.
“What do we do? Of course, we destroy the evidence.”
Crow had no choice but to pull out his gun and kill all the people who had come with Fatty Li.
“You take this ship out to the deep sea and sink it, understood?” Crow looked at Luo Maosen, his expression serious.
Right now, the priority was to destroy the evidence.
They absolutely could not let anyone know that Fatty Li had died here and that he was involved.
If the news leaked, even East Star wouldn't be able to protect themselves.
Hongxing was not the same as before; after changing leaders, the atmosphere was particularly deadly.
“Rest assured.”
Luo Maosen nodded, then turned to his subordinate beside him, “Poison Snake Bing, take this ship out to the deep sea and sink it.”
“Yes, boss.”
Poison Snake Bing nodded in response.
As for how to return, it was simple; they would take one ship out and tow the other behind it.
After sinking the ship, they would just take the other one back.
Just as Poison Snake Bing set off, a burst of gunfire erupted on the ship again.
“What are you doing?”
Luo Maosen looked at Crow, frowning.
“I can’t guarantee they won’t sell me out.” Crow said, his eyes bloodthirsty.
Just a moment ago, Crow had shot and killed two of his subordinates.
Crow was very clear about how he treated his men over the years.
He couldn't guarantee that these two wouldn't betray him after returning.
If that happened, he would be left with no way out.
Rather than gamble on that dead end, he might as well eliminate them to leave himself a way out.
“You really are ruthless.”
Luo Maosen looked at the somewhat deranged Crow; if it weren't for the fact that they were in the same boat, he felt Crow would have shot him too.
“Luo Maosen, you need to ensure that your people won’t spill the beans about today’s events.” Crow glared fiercely at Luo Maosen.
“Don’t worry, anyone I bring along is absolutely trustworthy; no one will talk.” Luo Maosen shook his head, confident in this regard.
“That’s good.”
Crow took a deep breath and calmed himself down: “Now, no one should leak any information.”
On Luo Maosen's side, they were all drug dealers and participants in Fatty Li's murder; they wouldn’t willingly expose themselves to Hongxing.
On his side, he had already killed to silence, so no one would leak anything.
Moreover, they were out in the vast sea, so there was no need to worry about being seen or filmed.
In this way, Crow couldn’t think of how Hongxing could investigate this matter further.
“Alright, let’s not be reckless with killing next time…” Crow complained, and then the two began their formal transaction.
……
“Master, the people have been killed.”
Jiang Tianzheng returned home, and the two messengers of the underworld reported to him.
The bodies had been dealt with, and there was no way they would be discovered; Jiang Tianzheng was relieved about that.
“Next, you two should start working on establishing the Hall of Death.” Jiang Tianzheng nodded and instructed them.
“The Hall of Death is divided into nine ranks, rated from SSS/SS/S/A/B/C/D/E/F.”
“Advancement in rank is based on the initial entry into the Hall of Death, with subsequent promotions considering the difficulty and quantity of completed tasks…” Jiang Tianzheng explained his plans for the Hall of Death to the two, piece by piece.
To strengthen the family's power in terms of influence, they couldn’t rely solely on the gang.
Now, they had added a killer organization, the Hall of Death.
In the future, he would establish more, such as mercenary teams, intelligence organizations, arms trafficking, and so on.
Except for flour, he would resolutely avoid touching that.
Not just him, but anyone in his faction was absolutely forbidden from dealing with flour.
In the past, Liang Kun would secretly sell it, but since taking the Loyalty Pill, Jiang Tianzheng had made him stop.
As for the business side, Jiang Tianzheng could only accumulate it bit by bit.
It mainly came down to funding.
For now, he would lay the groundwork with the telecommunications company and the small phone service, gradually branching out into real estate, finance, and daily necessities.
Developing in multiple areas was the foundation for a powerful family.
……
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three days, Hongxing received no news at all.
It was as if no one had witnessed Fatty Li's death.
“Mr. Jiang, we have news.”
One morning, Chen Yao hurriedly found Jiang Tianzheng.
“Did you find the murderer?”
Jiang Tianzheng looked at Chen Yao and asked.
“No.”
Chen Yao shook his head and replied, “But we found the exact location of those robbers.”
During this time, Chen Yao had been extremely busy.
He had to find the murderer who killed Fatty Li and also track down the whereabouts of the robbers who had ambushed the armored truck.
