Among those who had real influence with the Governor of Hong Kong, only Chen Xijiu and his group had previously helped Chen Xijiu a great deal.
If Chen Xijiu wanted to do some favors now, he probably wouldn't have suffered such a loss.
This is exactly the result Chen Xijiu wanted.
This drama between him and William is, after all, a spy thriller, with Chen Xijiu and William appearing to be at odds on the surface.
There was absolutely no possibility of any cooperation, but in private, the two of them had already schemed against Brother Lok and Piggy.
Chen Xijiu knew when to stop, and sighed as he looked at Zhuyouzai.
“I also want to help you, but I don’t have much money on hand right now. I need to take care of things from both sides, which has really taken a lot of effort.”
"Even the casinos have been forced to close down several of them, otherwise why would I have turned against you?"
Chen Xijiu's attempt to play the victim shocked everyone.
Brother Le immediately understood Chen Xijiu's meaning and quickly had someone open his safe.
He took out a box of money and placed it in front of Chen Xijiu.
"As long as we can bribe all the people at the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), I'll give you whatever money you want, just to save our lives."
Chen Xijiu looked at the box of money in Brother Le's hand and couldn't help but sigh.
He had originally thought that Brother Le didn't have much money left after the last robbery.
Chen Xijiu was surprised to find that he had so much readily available funds.
He couldn't even imagine how much money Brother Lok had made in Hong Kong over the years, and couldn't help but feel envious.
If I had that kind of strength, I might be able to surpass Brother Le.
"Since you've already said so, I certainly won't cause you any trouble."
(Nuohao Zhao) Chen Xijiu took the money from Brother Le's hand without any hesitation.
Brother Le watched as Chen Xijiu took away the box of money.
His heart was in his throat. He felt like he was making a painful sacrifice to save his life, and he really hoped that Chen Xijiu wasn't lying to him.
After everyone left, Brother Le sighed and couldn't recover for a long time. Piggy's eyes became incredibly complicated.
He secretly told himself that he needed to find a new backer; he couldn't rely on Brother Le anymore.

When Chen Xijiu came out of the villa, A Long saw that Chen Xijiu was carrying a box, so he quickly went over to help Chen Xijiu put the box in the trunk.
"Master, where should we go now? It's still early. It seems that Ah Kun has already chosen a location and is waiting for you to make a reservation."
Chen Xijiu immediately agreed, and A Long drove to A Kun's location.
Ah Long couldn't help but ask Chen Xi Jiu and Brother Le about their relationship.
“What we lack in our real estate business right now is a large sum of money, and Brother Le happens to have that money. Wouldn’t it be better if we used this money to expand our business?”
Some of his words made Ah Long instantly see the light.
He originally thought that Chen Xijiu would likely be restrained by Brother Le in this game, but he didn't expect that Chen Xijiu had already thought of more ways.
Faced with the current situation, he had already figured out all the plans. Ah Long couldn't help but admire Chen Xi Jiu.
"In the end, the master is smarter. Brother Le must be starting to panic now."
After all, everyone on Hong Kong Island has begun to hate him, and the police officers who worked with him back then are now terrified that Brother Lok will implicate them.
Ah Long's perspective on things truly impressed Chen Xi Jiu.
No wonder Ah Long wanted to stay by his side; such insightful observations made Chen Xi Jiu even more interested in him.
"Actually, things are not as simple as we think. Since Brother Le has made full preparations, he must still have a backup plan. We need to reveal his trump card first."
Chen Xijiu never makes arrangements for things he can't win, even when many situations have already exceeded his expectations.
If I can resolve all those problems as quickly as possible, then new arrangements can be made later.
Furthermore, Chen Xijiu still harbors some fear of Brother Le. If they were to truly break off relations now, no one could predict the consequences.
Chen Xijiu must have a perfect chance of winning in order to stand out in this game.
The car slowly drove to where Ah Kun lived. When Ah Kun came downstairs and saw Chen Xi Jiu, he immediately and respectfully welcomed her inside.
Chen Xijiu was a little puzzled when he saw all sorts of documents in his cheap rented room.
"You usually live here?"
Chen Xijiu could still smell a dampness in the air, and Akun nodded repeatedly as he looked at Chen Xijiu.
He didn't know how to explain it, but he was already very grateful that he had a place to stay, and even that was arranged for him by Ah Long.
"Ninth Brother, you don't know how important it is to me to have a place to stay right now."
“I have a younger sister who needs to go to school, so I have to earn money quickly to support her education.”
Upon hearing Ah Kun's words, Chen Xi Jiu waved his hand and took out a wad of cash from the box, placing it directly on Ah Kun's table.
"Since you've come with me, I won't let you live such a hard life. Besides, you'll be helping me manage my real estate business. Following me will naturally ensure you live a life of luxury."
Ah Kun was so happy when he saw the money Chen Xi Jiu gave him that he burst into tears.
No one knew better than him how he had fallen to this point, and only Chen Xijiu had extended a helping hand to him. When he kidnapped Ai Ling, it was because he wanted to be able to follow Chen Xijiu.

"Ninth Brother, I really don't know how to thank you. I think I'm living a good enough life now."
"I'd do anything to ensure my sister and I can survive on Hong Kong Island."
Ah Kun knelt before Chen Xi Jiu, weeping with joy. Chen Xi Jiu reached out and helped him up.
Seeing Ah Kun's appearance, Chen Xijiu gently patted his shoulder, carefully looked at the documents on the table, and looked at Ah Kun with new respect.
He didn't know much about the real estate business, but the documents Ah Kun had compiled were so complete.
It is easy to see that he is indeed a promising talent.
"If you follow me now, you'll definitely have a bright future. As long as you do well in this real estate business, I will definitely promote you."
"You will definitely have a place on Hong Kong Island in the future."
Chen Xijiu never makes promises lightly, but he does have a certain appreciation for Ah Kun.
Ah Kun, upon hearing Chen Xi Jiu's words, naturally dared not delay. He looked at Chen Xi Jiu and a smile appeared on his face, determined to serve Chen Xi Jiu.
“The real estate business is still the most popular in Hong Kong Island. There have been cases of people who have gone bankrupt because of real estate business. We need to learn from their failures.”
"Therefore, I have selected several addresses in this document I have compiled. As long as we invest, we can completely cover up the casino area and no one will ever mention the casino again."
Ah Kun had taken care of everything for Chen Xi Jiu, which made Chen Xi Jiu look at him with new respect.
Chen Xijiu glanced at the documents quickly, but could tell that Ah Kun had indeed prepared thoroughly.
"Now that you're all prepared, go ahead and do it with confidence. Don't worry about the money; I've already arranged for someone to raise all the funds for you."
"Once you've identified the location, immediately begin preparations for the construction team. Make sure there are no mishaps."
Upon hearing Chen Xijiu's words, Ah Kun nodded repeatedly. He also knew many people in the real estate industry, especially one named Li Ze.
“Li Ze had considerable strength in real estate development back then, and now he is a model in Hong Kong Island real estate development.”
"I have some acquaintance with him, and I believe that I will be able to complete this business deal with him soon."

With Ah Kun's words, Chen Xi Jiu no longer needed to worry.
He left the money with Ah Kun and got up to leave. Before leaving, Chen Xi Jiu stopped and turned to look at Ah Kun.
How old is your sister this year?
When Ah Kun heard Chen Xi Jiu's words, he suddenly remembered the rumors circulating that Chen Xi Jiu was Detective Abalone.
...................
He had high hopes for his younger sister and didn't want her to fall into an abyss because of this.
Besides, Chen Xijiu has so many women around him, and his own sister is just a student. How can she compete with them?
Out of concern for his younger sister, Ah Kun said directly that she was only seven years old.
My younger sister is still in elementary school.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xijiu instantly lost interest. If she were older, perhaps he could take her into his harem.
How could he possibly do such a thing to a seven-year-old girl? So he instructed Ah Kun to take good care of his sister.
When Chen Xijiu returned to the hotel, Guoguo and Gangsheng had another argument.
The two sat on the chairs, ignoring each other.

“I don’t know why he suddenly started hitting me. Of course, I couldn’t back down, so I slapped him. I didn’t expect him to sit on the ground and start crying, and even tried to tell you on me.”
Guoguo was the first to tell Chen Xijiu about Gangsheng's desire to share his situation.
Hong Sheng's tears fell instantly, and he ran to Chen Xi Jiu's side to tell her his story.
