How About We Split the Reward Money Fifty-Fifty?

A-Lok waved behind him, and several other members of Fuyixing's Red Pole came over and helped the man and woman down to the third floor. They then went down together, leaving only the tall, thin man Gao Lao Cheng standing behind Golden-Tooth Lei with his shoulders slumped.

Golden-Tooth Lei said to Song Tianyao, "Secretary Song, there are too many miscellaneous matters during the funeral, and I don't know how much it will cost right now. Why don't we wait until after the burial and see how much it costs, and then I will personally inform you of the expenses? But I will definitely convey your sentiments to the Black-Hearted Wah family first."

Song Tianyao hadn't originally intended to show any mercy. In his view, Black-Hearted Wah didn't deserve to die, and since he had already crippled him, he didn't plan to pursue the matter further. However, he hadn't expected Golden-Tooth Lei to be so ruthless, actually freezing Black-Hearted Wah to death. Ultimately, it was because of the two stab wounds Song Tianyao had inflicted. Without those wounds, Hei Xinhua wouldn't have died so easily from being submerged in seawater. That's why Song Tianyao spoke up, just to spend some money on paper money for the dead and to find peace of mind.

However, since Golden-Tooth Lei was showing him goodwill, he didn't care. The funeral cost 10,000 yuan, and he figured that when he asked about it later, Golden-Tooth Lei would only say that it cost 50 yuan.

He had a very good impression of Golden-Tooth Lei tonight. This was the kind of behavior a triad Big Brother was preparing to rely on the Chu Family for a living should have. He knew how to speak, how to be tactful, how to understand human relationships, and how to be smart. Most importantly, he was willing to invest and knew that the Chu Family's reward to the triad at the docks was more valuable than the fourteen gold bars he had given away.

Song Tianyao no longer cared about what happened that afternoon, nor did he need to think about whether Fuyixing did it on purpose. The matter was simple: Black-Hearted Wah didn't know he had become the Chu Family's secretary and still thought he was that young man from the Squatter Area who had failed to get into the police academy. That's why he foolishly walked into Song Tianyao's house, and Song Tianyao just used him to make an example of him. Otherwise, if Song Tianyao had known the truth, even if he had given Black-Hearted Wah his own courage, he wouldn't have dared to set foot in Song Tianyao's house.

"Eat something, Brother Lei?" Thinking of this, Song Tianyao smiled at Golden-Tooth Lei, then urged Yan Hung, "Brother Hung, join us. We're not going to waste this meal if no one has an appetite, are we? We've already paid; it would be such a waste not to eat."

Then he looked at the Gao Lao Cheng behind Golden-Tooth Lei: "This guy looks unfamiliar. I wonder which Big Brother from Lao Fu he is? Let's sit down and have a meal together."

"This is Gao Lao Cheng. Secretary Song can just call him Ah Shing. He manages the twenty-odd Heroin stall that Fuyixing has in Yau Ma Tei," Golden-Tooth Lei said to Song Tianyao when Song Tianyao asked about Gao Lao Cheng's identity.

Song Tianyao nodded and pointed to the empty seat opposite him. "That's Brother Shing, sit down and eat with us."

Gao Lao Cheng stepped forward and sat down opposite Song Tianyao. He thanked Song Tianyao and Secretary Song, then picked up his chopsticks and began to eat the slightly cold dishes. He ate voraciously, chewing as he continued to stuff food into his mouth with his chopsticks, as if he hadn't eaten in a long time. Moreover, his eyes were fixed on the dishes on the table like those of a hungry wolf.

"Haha~" Song Tianyao laughed at Jin Golden-Tooth Lei and said, "Brother Lei, Fuyixing has talented people, let's eat!"

After saying that, he picked up his chopsticks, took a slice of bamboo shoot, and savored it slowly. His eyes were fixed on Gao Lao Cheng across from him, who was eating like a demon reincarnated. Once he swallowed the bamboo shoot, a bright smile spread across his face as he said:

"After Fuyixing enters the docks, why not let Brother Shing manage them?"

These words made Golden-Tooth Lei almost drop his chopsticks, his eyes gleaming with uncontrollable elation as he looked at Song Tianyao!

Has the deal with Fuyixing entering the dock been finalized?

Downstairs, Rotten-Life Ju came down and told Chan Ah-sap heard that Song Tianyao had openly asked Rotten-Life Ju Fuyixing was offering fourteen gold bars, Chan Ah-sap almost lost his temper and ordered someone to go up and kill Song Tianyao on the spot!

Does Song Tianyao think he's Chu Yaozong, the head of the Chu Family? Does he think he can just let any gang into the dock whenever he wants?

On the other hand, he was also shocked by Golden-Tooth Lei's generosity. Fourteen gold bars—not to mention Song Tianyao would be tempted, the sight of them piled together, gleaming and dazzling, would probably even tempt Chu Xiaozhong.

Chao Yong Yi and Fuyixing are two different organizations. In terms of financial resources, Chao Yong Yi may not be as wealthy as Fuyixing, which relies solely on shady dealings. However, Chao Yong Yi has the advantage of stable income and the support of the Chamber of Commerce behind it.

Every day, there are jobs available at the docks. As long as a laborer is willing to join Chao Yong Yi, Chao Yong Yi can arrange a job for him. This method of recruiting people is unmatched by Fuyixing. Every day, new laborers come to the docks looking for work, and every day, more laborers join Chao Yong Yi. Based on the calculation that Chao Yong Yi has 5,000 laborer members who are unwilling to participate in the fighting and just want to make a living, and each laborer's membership fee is 10 yuan per month, the monthly membership fee income would be 50,000 yuan. Of course, not all of these membership fees would go into the gang's accounts. There are also necessary expenses for deaths and injuries caused by fighting with other gangs, medical expenses, resettlement expenses, etc., including when core members of the gang have family difficulties. In addition, Chan Ah-sap is considered fair to the gang members. Therefore, Chao Yong Yi's current financial resources are much worse than Fuyixing's, who can't find a backer and can only make a living through shady means.

Should Chan Ah-sap borrow money from loan sharks to raise enough to outdo Fuyixing? Chan Ah-sap couldn't bear the loss of face. He wasn't a powerful Big Brother like Golden-Tooth Lei with no one behind him; he had Chu Xiaozhong standing behind him.

"Let's go." Chan Ah-sap thought for a moment, stood up, glanced at the stairs with a gloomy face, turned and walked towards the disembarkation point, saying, "Let Song Tianyao take Lao Fu's fourteen yellow croakers. After tomorrow, I'll make sure Song Tianyao gets himself drowned in the sea and made into fish!"

Chapter Forty-Four: How about we split the reward money in half?

Zhao Wenye walked up to the third floor of the Taibai Seafood Restaurant in a daze and found his cousin chatting and laughing with Fuyixing and his two companions.

"A-Yip, come and sit down." When Song Tianyao saw Zhao Wenye come up, he patted the back of his chair, gesturing for Zhao Wenye to sit down.

"Brother Yiu, Boss and the others have left." After sitting down, Zhao Wenye hesitated for a long time. In the end, the bond between the gang and his brotherhood with Song Tianyao couldn't withstand it, and he couldn't help but say to Song Tianyao, "When they left, Brother Ten Boss Ding said that he would cause you trouble in the future."
