Chapter 17 Is Liang Chen an undercover cop?
"Boss, we've located the group of Hong Kong and Guangdong soldiers. They're in Kowloon Walled City."
"The information is accurate. I found out that Da Dong had fought with the Flying Tigers before and injured one of his brothers. He was very likely to run to the Walled City. Later, I learned that a doctor had a relationship with him, and I quickly located his position."
"Good, let's see if we can bring him here." Wei Chen hung up the phone after saying that.
If Da Dong and his gang are really in the Walled City, then the leak will most likely happen in Kowloon City.
You can hide in the stronghold, but you can't trade there, because there are countless big bosses there.
Kowloon Walled City is a very special area on Hong Kong Island. It covers an area of only about 2.7 hectares and is a lawless area, yet it has a population of tens of thousands. Various notorious thieves and fugitives have fled there to evade police pursuit.
Da Dong might not be afraid of these people, but he'll definitely come out to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, with just this much information, Wei Chen could quickly pinpoint the target's location.
He summoned Fly and ordered, "Gather thirty brave and daring brothers and search around Kowloon City for any smuggling routes. If you find any, don't make a fuss, just tell me."
"No problem," Fly readily agreed.
Since Da Dong is still in Kowloon Walled City, it means he hasn't been exposed yet.
Otherwise, they would have run away long ago.
It seems that things are getting tense, the smugglers are trying to lower the price, or something has caused the delay.
Taking advantage of this time difference, Wei Chen could easily get things done.
"Brother Chen, do you want to take down those ruthless thugs?" Jimmy was quick-witted and understood the key point from just a few words.
"Yes." Wei Chen didn't hide anything, lit a cigarette, and said, "You don't need to worry about this. Just focus on doing business. We're going to go public eventually."
"Of course, I'm the trader," Jimmy laughed.
"Also, now that the milk tea shop has become a chain, it's time to start a company, get the necessary patents sorted out, and then hire a legal counsel, a top lawyer," Wei Chen instructed.
Jimmy thought for a moment and said, "No problem, I know what to do."
"Just knowing is enough."
It doesn't matter if the Ministry of Justice doesn't exist, but it's essential to have lawyers in the Ministry of Justice.
After all, they were gangsters. If they were to go through the proper channels, all sorts of procedures would be incredibly troublesome, and they wouldn't have many reliable people around them.
Having a lawyer makes all the difference.
Ideally, you should have a top lawyer, a "big lawyer," who can not only handle business matters but also help you deal with unnecessary troubles. That's the most important thing.
"Boss." That night, Ahua brought back a shifty-eyed man.
"The doctor was in Kowloon Walled City, and we were afraid of alerting him, so we didn't go in."
"This guy is Jin Laoshu, the one who sells stolen goods for Da Dong. The location has already been chosen." Ahua dragged Jin Laoshu over, his face bruised and swollen.
"Golden Rat" is industry slang, referring to a black market boss who collects filth.
To put it bluntly, they're just suckers.
"Tsk tsk, Ah Hua, how did you get beaten up like this?" Wei Chen laughed.
"What do you mean he hit you? He clearly fell down by himself!" Ahua didn't care at all. Jin Laoshu got up, covered his face, and trembled all over.
"Gentlemen, what can I do for you?"
"What is it? Didn't you hear me perfectly well?" Wei Chen lit a cigarette and continued, "Da Dong robbed my gold shop of a lot of money. I heard he's going to run away, so I had to send someone over to check on him, didn't I?"
"Boss, Da Dong did contact me, but he didn't come," Jin Laoshu said aggrievedly, not daring to argue with Wei Chen.
"He didn't come because his men were injured and are still in the fortress!" Ahua slapped him and cursed, "Behave yourself, or I'll cripple you."
After finishing his cigarette, Wei Chen asked, "Da Dong, how much stock do you want to ship?"
"I saw on the news that he robbed over 30 million, but he actually owes me 3 million... I had the cash ready, and we were supposed to ship it out that day, but the cops were watching too closely, so he ran into the Walled City, and we haven't heard from him since." Golden Rat was also afraid of these guys, feeling that they were even more ferocious than bandits.
The ruthless bandits were actually quite polite to them.
"Three million, and we still have to pay them to collect it. What a waste of effort and what a loss!" Wei Chen said with a smile.
"Boss, what do you mean?" Golden Rat perked up immediately and asked cautiously.
"As for me, all I want is to get my revenge." Wei Chen casually threw his cigarette butt on the ground. "Take back the money you received from the stolen goods, and take the three million in gold too. All I want is for Da Dong, that damn bastard, to die."
"No way, is there really such a good thing?" The golden rat's eyes lit up.
"This bastard robbed several of my boss's shops, and he's been targeting one person relentlessly. Tell me, do I want money or my life?" Wei Chen said with a forced smile.
The golden rat understood immediately.
He didn't know if Wei Chen was telling the truth or not, but if he was, then it made sense.
Tens of millions have already been stolen, so who cares about a few million?
If anyone's going to get anything, it'll be those tens of millions.
He could double-cross them, benefiting himself without spending any money… Golden Rat's mind raced, not considering any downsides. He gritted his teeth and said, “Boss, whatever you say, I’ll do it. Let’s take down these big-time gangsters!”
"That's right," Wei Chen said with satisfaction.
"After that, I will be your nephew. If Da Dong really asks you to ship the goods, take me with you. The rest will be handled as usual. Just watch how we do things."
"You just need to collect the money, how about that?"
"No problem, I agree." There's no reason for the Golden Rat to refuse such a good thing.
"Xiao Fu," Wei Chen turned his head again, "Find two gunmen, or your colleagues, and have them lie in ambush around the transaction location. As soon as they hear any noise, they'll take action immediately."
"The most important thing is to see if Da Dong, that bastard, has any tricks up his sleeve. Da Quan has always been cunning."
"Understood," Xiao Fu nodded.
Golden Rat quickly chimed in from the side, "I've already done business with Da Dong several times. He trusts me. As long as he can come, there won't be any problems."
"Those who die quickly are often the blindly confident like you," Wei Chen sneered.
The golden rat looked somewhat embarrassed.
Da Dong is still in Kowloon Walled City, which means his men are probably injured and unable to move. He won't leave until his men are able to move again.
Because it makes it easier to escape.
However, this guy is audacious, blatantly robbing so many times that the police are keeping a close eye on him.
Therefore, it won't be long before Da Dong makes a swift move, otherwise, if he's truly targeted by the righteous path, he won't be able to escape even if he wants to.
Sure enough, just two days later, news came from Da Dong.
They agreed to meet at a pier in Kowloon City.
That evening, Wei Chen rode in the Golden Rat's car, looking relaxed, to the dock. When he got out of the car, he saw the port densely packed with containers, with only a few dim chandeliers hanging in the air.
Several figures were vaguely visible not far away.
And the leader was none other than the most wanted criminal in Kowloon – Da Dong, a flag bearer of the Guangdong-Hong Kong clique.
"Brother Dong, you're here so quickly?" Golden Rat took a leather bag from the trunk and walked over with a smile.
However, Da Dong didn't reminisce. Instead, his gaze turned sinister and ferocious. He suddenly drew his gun and pointed it at Wei Chen, shouting, "A policeman undercover? I'll kill you right now!"
