"Where are you going?" After Song Tianyao finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Chu Xiaozhong said to Song Tianyao, "Use counterfeit goods to replace all the genuine medicines in the Customs warehouse? Don't even mention that the Governor of Hong Kong has already been bribed by the Zhang Family for one or two million Hong Kong dollars. Even if the Governor of Hong Kong hadn't been bribed by the Zhang Family before, he wouldn't have allowed you to smuggle these medicines out in broad daylight. If you smuggle them out, the Zhang Family can easily turn the tide, push out Likang as a scapegoat, and the great situation will be reversed again."
"Young Master Zhong, if the Zhang Family sees Likang blatantly replacing the medicines in the Customs warehouse, will they go out and stop them?" Song Tianyao asked Chu Xiaozhong.
Chu Xiaozhong snorted, his face grim as he looked at Song Tianyao and said, "How could that be? They might even be waiting for you to empty the entire place. The Customs Department isn't stupid. If you empty the place and the Governor orders them to return all the drugs to the various companies, and they're all counterfeit, how will the Customs Department explain themselves? They'll naturally find a scapegoat among the China person in the Customs Department, and then, in conjunction with the Zhang Family's counterattack, accuse Likang of bribing the China person in Customs to secretly replace the drugs. At that point, Likang's situation will probably be even more dangerous than the Zhang Family's now. If you don't explain yourself clearly, I won't let you leave this room, because if you make one wrong move, it won't just be you who loses, it will be the Chu Family."
As he uttered his last sentence, his face darkened, and one could vaguely discern what Chu Yaozong looked like in his youth.
"Come into the office, I need to tell Young Master Zhong." Song Tianyao stopped, smiled somewhat awkwardly, and said to Chu Xiaozhong.
He was in such a hurry to make arrangements that he neglected Chu Xiaozhong's feelings.
Chu Xiaozhong Song Tianyao a mistake, the Chu Family would lose. Although Chu Yaozong Chu Xiaozhong did not. As the future head of the Chu Family, he did have the right to demand to know what this little secretary, Song Tianyao, was up to.
Chu Xiaozhong followed Song Tianyao into the office. Second Young Master Chu wanted to follow, but Song Tianyao said to him, "Boss, leave this kind of troublesome matter to me. Go play the good guy, find some really run-down schools in Kowloon, and throw out a thousand or two thousand dollars. Oh, and remember to have Brother Fu, who drives you, hire a photographer to take pictures of you."
"So mysterious," Chu Xiaoxin muttered dismissively, but he didn't leave.
In fact, Second Young Master Chu was worried about what his mother had said: that Song Tianyao was performing too well, and that he should treat Song Tianyao even better to win people over and prevent Chu Xiaozhong from trying to poach Song Tianyao from his side.
So when he saw Song Tianyao and Chu Xiaozhong go into the office to talk privately, he decided to come in and listen.
Seeing the fleeting sadness in Chu Xiaoxin's eyes, Song Tianyao laughed, raised his left hand to show him his wristwatch, and said, "Don't worry, I know my place. Boss, you've said it before, the most important thing in life is integrity."
Chu Xiaoxin laughed when he heard Song Tianyao's almost explicit words, then turned and left, preparing to continue playing the good guy as Song Tianyao had instructed.
Kong Wing-yan, naturally, wasn't qualified to enter the office and remained in the lobby. Song Tianyao closed the office door and looked at Chu Xiaozhong, who was waiting for him to speak, "Actually, the whole matter is very simple. Just look through a book of military strategy, and you can find the answer to the whole thing there. I inadvertently fell for Foreign Devil foreigner Shek Chi-yik's scheme to use someone else to do my dirty work. As for the Zhang Family, after realizing what was happening, they secretly turned the tables and took control. Now, it's Likang's turn to make a move, feigning madness, taking advantage of the situation, and substituting one thing for another. Even if they can't completely destroy the Zhang Family from having their current position in the pharmaceutical industry. What I need to do now is..."
Five minutes later, Song Tianyao walked out of the office with a smile and greeted Likang Kong Wing-yan with a cheerful smile, "Miss Jiang, I'll definitely treat you to a meal to thank you when I have time."
After saying that, Song Tianyao left Likang and, followed by Rotten-Life Ju, got into Ford 49 and drove away.
Chu Xiaozhong walked out of the office with a strange expression. Kong Wing-yan wanted to ask him what Song Tianyao had said to Chu Xiaozhong. The secretary is the boss's close confidant. Basically, a boss will not hide anything from his secretary, driver, and private lawyer, who are his most trusted confidants.
Seeing that Kong Wing-yan was about to speak, Chu Xiaozhong waved his hand. "Don't ask. I haven't even figured it out myself yet. No wonder my father said that Song Tianyao is good at reading people and understanding their hearts. Go do your work. I'll stay here and calm down."
After Song Tianyao got into the car, he started the engine and said to Rotten-Life Ju, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "Do you know where that mountain lord Zhu Xuguang, named He Yong Yi, is, the one my grandfather talked about last night?"
"He Yong Yi, that old uncle who's known as Uncle Guang, the one with the Big-Eyed Kwong? You know him? He runs a Mahjong Parlor and a pawn shop in Kowloon. He rarely gets involved in the underworld anymore; most of the time he's an Eight Harmonies Opera Troupe next to the Mahjong Parlor, playing the erhu," Rotten-Life Ju said to Song Tianyao.
Upon hearing from Rotten-Life Ju that the other party lived in Kowloon, Song Tianyao immediately drove towards the Central Pier, intending to take a ferry across the harbor.
The car was hauled across the bay by Tugboat. With directions from the Rotten-Life Ju, Song Tianyao finally managed to drive the car to a mahjong parlor with a sign that read "Eight Harmonies Mahjong Hall." The waiter outside, who was responsible for attracting customers, greeted the car with a smile, "Boss, want to try your luck? We have mahjong, Pai Gow, playing cards, dice, everything."
"Is Uncle Guang here? Uncle Guang asked me to come see him." As Song Tianyao got out of the car, he handed over a five-yuan note as a tip to the tout and asked.
The waiter took the money, then glanced at Rotten-Life Ju, who was getting out of the passenger seat. Although he didn't call Rotten-Life Ju by name, he clearly felt that this "Double Red Pole" of Chao Yong Yi looked familiar, and his attire suggested he was a figure from the underworld. He naturally assumed that Song Tianyao was also a member of the underworld, and without his previous reservations, he politely said, "Uncle Guang is having tea in a private room on the second floor. He went to perform at the opera troupe, but someone just came back to see him. Please come upstairs. I'll go in and pass on a message to Uncle Guang for you. May I ask who you are?"
