Are You Tired of Living?

Wan Cheng was displeased, but he didn't show it on his face. He said calmly, "It's alright. Young friend Chi Gui is still young and doesn't understand many rules yet."

"It's alright, he's young, he can learn slowly."

Beside Luo Yan, Yang Hao's eyes flashed, and he muttered, "Old man, taking advantage of your age."

Xu Ruihao immediately retorted angrily, "What did you say? Speak up if you dare!"

He then pointed at Luo Yan: "How can you be someone's boss? Your subordinates are so incompetent. Like father, like son! Humph!"

Yang Hao narrowed his eyes, then heard Luo Yan beside him say calmly, "You're right."

"My subordinate was indeed incompetent."

Upon hearing this, Yang Hao's expression darkened.

But Luo Yan then added, "Yang Hao, next time you speak, speak louder."

"What if the elders can't hear us?"

Yang Hao's eyes immediately Zhang Yang, and after glancing at Luo Yan beside him, he shouted, "Yes!"

He looked at the fat man, grinned maliciously, and shouted, "Fatty, are you deaf?"

"Then I'll say it again."

"Old man, don't act like you're so old!"

"Well, did you hear that?"

"Can't you hear me?"

"Come on, everyone, say it with me!"

Behind him, ten skilled fighters shouted in unison, "Old man, don't act like you're so important just because you're old!"

The sound echoed throughout Temple Street.

Xu Zhihao was stunned.

Wan Cheng was also stunned.

Everyone else turned into stone statues.

They never expected that the Red Demons and their gang would be so arrogant!

Only then did Luo Yan look at the fat man and calmly say, "Well, did you hear me clearly this time?"

Wan Cheng tightened his grip on Tie Dan slightly, leaving a faint fingerprint on the iron bladder. His face twitched, and he forced a smile.

"Young friend Red Demon, you are truly... witty."

"Come, come, this way, please. It's almost New Year's Eve, everyone should calm down and not ruin the harmony."

The group then proceeded to the round table.

They all took their seats.

Luo Yan looked around, his gaze sweeping over each face, taking in the information about each person.

This time, he didn't see any members of the 'Yellow Springs' organization.

At the round table, Wan Cheng glanced at his trusted confidant Xu Ruihao, who understood and said loudly, "Gentlemen, it's a rare occasion for us all to gather together today."

"Why don't we take this opportunity to discuss important matters together? What do you all think?"

Uncle Ya, sitting next to Wan Cheng, chuckled, glanced at Wan Cheng discreetly, and then looked at Luo Yan: "If we're talking about who has the strongest momentum and the most manpower this year, it's naturally none other than Young Friend Chi Gui's Red Gate."

"Young friend Red Demon, how about you take the lead and guide us all to make money?"

Several people immediately chimed in, with only a handful, including 'Nine Phoenix' Guan Qi, ' Dark Blood ' Yue Zun, and ' Ding Sheng Hang ' Ding Ding'ao, remaining silent.

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly; in his field of vision, the 'inner thoughts' of those people were laid bare.

He didn't expose their ulterior motives, and calmly said, "Oh, so what do you all think we at Red Gate should do?"

"If you have any opinions, feel free to speak them out."

Xu Ruihao, sitting at the opposite table, immediately said, "Didn't your Red Gate recently acquire the ' Kaiyang Group,' which has a building in the city center?"

"I think, could we use this as a basis to have Red Gate lead everyone to expand their business into the city center?"

Luo Yan, remaining calm behind his mask, said, "You mean, pooling funds to start a business?"

Xu Ruihao leaned back in his chair, puffed on his cigarette, and exhaled a puff of smoke as he said, "That's roughly the idea. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to contribute their money and pool their resources to do business together, rather than each going their own way?"

Luo Yan said calmly, "Then I wonder how the funds will be allocated in this fundraising?"

Xu Ruihao leaned forward and chuckled, "It's simple. I've calculated it. If we can gather tens of millions of work points, that should be about enough."

"And your Red Gate made a lot of money last year, just from the acquisition of ' Kaiyang Group,' you must have made at least tens of millions, right?"

"How about this, Red Gate will contribute 50 million as initial investment funds."

"We've scraped together a few million, and we're making some money with your Red Gate. You're not going to cut us out of the Red Gate, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zou's expression changed. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Luo Yan raise his hand.

Then he heard what his master had to say.

"So, how do you plan to distribute the profits?"

Xu Ruihao laughed and said, "Boss Red Demon is indeed straightforward. Well then, I'll be frank too."

"Although it costs the Red Gate more money, we won't take advantage of Red Gate. We may not have much money, but we have plenty of strength."

"At that time, we'll just put in more effort, and that will cover the funding."

"As for profit distribution, since Red Gate contributed the majority of the capital, I think you should take at least 30%."

"We'll split the rest."

"Don't feel like you're at a disadvantage, Boss Red Demon. After all, we outnumber you and put in more effort."

"Although they took 70% of the profits, when divided among so many big shots, each organization or gang actually didn't get much."

"In the end, it's still your Red Gate that benefits."

What do you think?

Luo Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "Is that so?"

"Then, those who agree with Mr. Xu, please raise your hands."

Xu Ruihao immediately raised his hand and shouted, "What are you waiting for? Boss Chigui is leading everyone to make money, raise your hands now!"

The others looked at each other, and after a few seconds, Uncle Ya finally raised his arm.

Subsequently, people gradually raised their hands in agreement.

Finally, when Wan Cheng also raised his hand, the only ones who did not raise their hands were Guan Qi of 'Nine Phoenixes', Yue Zun of ' Dark Blood ', and Ding Ding'ao.

Looking around, the table was full of people, and 90% of them raised their hands in approval.

Xu Ruihao then stood up and laughed, "It seems everyone agrees. Well then, it's settled then."

"I'll have my lawyer draft a contract later, and I'll pick an auspicious day to personally deliver it to Red Gate."

The fat man poured Luo Yan a glass of wine and then said, "Come on, let me toast Boss Red Ghost first."

He tilted his head back and drank it down, displaying boundless bravado.

But after finishing his drink, Xu Ruihao discovered that Luo Yan hadn't touched his glass at all.

Xu Ruihao's face immediately darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Boss Chigui, what does this mean?"

"You wouldn't be planning to skip this 'toast,' would you?"

Luo Yan then said calmly, "From beginning to end, I've been the one asking for your opinions."

"It seems you didn't ask for my opinion."

"Or do you think my opinion is unimportant?"

He glanced at the wine glass in front of him and calmly said, "They want our Red Gate to contribute fifty million, but they'll give us thirty percent of the profits."

"You'll contribute your labor?"

Tell me, how much is strength worth?

"Or are you taking me for a fool, a sucker?"

Luo Yan paused for a moment before raising his head to look at the people who had raised their hands earlier.

"Are you all tired of living?"
