He has always admired Ah Kun, and now he sees Ah Kun receiving so much attention from Chen Xi Jiu.
Ah Long was a little envious.
“What the master said is indeed true. The real estate business is now entirely dependent on Ah Kun’s constant bribing at 5.9. Otherwise, those permits would probably be obtained through Director William’s back door.”
"It's easy to imagine how much strength Ah Kun possesses."
Chen Xijiu nodded gently.
This was indeed something he could only dream of, and with such a capable assistant, he wasn't worried at all about his business running into trouble.
"In that case, we must promote Ah Kun properly in the future, and the same goes for you."

As Chen Xijiu entered Guangming Company, Akun and his men came out to greet him.
These bodyguards dressed in black were all people who followed Ah Kun when he first started out, and now they have become legitimate bodyguards.
"Ninth Brother, you've finally arrived."
In front of everyone, Ah Kun was very respectful to Chen Xi Jiu.
Looking at the bodyguards behind Ah Kun, Chen Xijiu couldn't help but admire them.
These thugs, who used to be shady characters, have now transformed into bodyguards, not only with a legitimate title but also with the ability to receive a normal salary.
Ah Kun treats his men very well; no wonder they are so loyal to him.
“You did a good job. Now send the people down first. I want to see how the cooperation with the real estate companies is going, especially that piece of land in the suburbs.”
As soon as Chen Xijiu finished speaking, Akun nodded hurriedly.
He led Chen Xijiu directly to the office, where Chen Xijiu sat on the sofa and carefully looked around the company's interior.
As he expected, Ah Kun was indeed efficient and clean when he did these things.
The entire company was not only clean and tidy, but also had a very clear division of labor. In order to make the real estate business more legal, Ah Kun even hired a lawyer to provide legal counsel for them.
"We have already had our lawyers and team quickly appraise that piece of land. The three offers are for 30 million. If the speculation continues, it could reach 100 million."
Ah Kun was also a little anxious.
Li Ze has always valued this piece of land highly, and he has been inquiring about it from various departments since last year.
If Chen Xijiu wants to buy this land, they will definitely cause trouble immediately.
Ah Kun was worried that even Brother Le would get involved.
“We also have people from the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) gathering information. Now, they are not only focusing on Lok Gor and others, but they are also very likely to thoroughly investigate the real estate sector.”
Ah Kun looked at Chen Xi Jiu with some worry. If even Brother Le couldn't escape, Chen Xi Jiu would probably be affected as well.
He simply couldn't imagine how things would turn out.
Upon hearing Ah Kun's words, Chen Xijiu carefully examined the documents in his hand, his expression remaining calm.
He lay lazily on the sofa, completely unfazed by the situation.
The Governor of Hong Kong had already told himself that either Lok Gor or Piggy had to die.
Chen Xijiu was still hesitant, but after hearing Ah Kun's words, he made his final choice.
"You're worried that Piggy and Brother Lok will betray me. This was probably already in their plans."
"But even if something really happens, they can't hurt me. We need to start preparing for this piece of land for the real estate business, and we need to get there before Li Ze does."
As soon as Chen Xijiu finished speaking, Akun agreed without hesitation.
They don't have any connections with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) yet.
If the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) takes action against Lok Gor, Chan Sai Kau will definitely be implicated, and their real estate and casino businesses will also be affected.
What Ah Kun thought of, Chen Xijiu naturally had no problem with either.
Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive.
After Chen Xijiu and Akun finished dealing with the company's affairs, they received a call from Zhuyouzai.
"Ah Jiu, I'm waiting for you in the coffee shop. Come over here; I have something to discuss with you. Don't worry, Brother Le doesn't know that I'm the one who's contacting you privately."
Zhu Youzai's phone call made Chen Xijiu frown slightly, realizing that something was likely going to happen.
Chapter 249, Piggy Surrenders? Refuse!
"Master, let's hurry over there now, otherwise it will be too late to get back tonight. You've been busy all day, you definitely need to get some rest."
Ah Long always puts Chen Xi Jiu's needs first, which makes Chen Xi Jiu very satisfied.
He glanced at Ah Long and patted Ah Long on the shoulder.
"Your thoughtfulness is truly impressive, but don't worry, even if someone were to try and harm us now..."
"That depends on who can establish a foothold on Hong Kong Island these days. If they want to cause us trouble at this critical juncture, it won't be an easy task."
Chen Xijiu instructed Ah Kun to continue to do a good job in the real estate business.
He absolutely had to snatch that piece of land in the suburbs from Li Ze; this was the first step he needed to take to lay a solid foundation for his new venture into the real estate business.
Ah Long drove and quickly dropped Chen Xijiu off at the coffee shop.
Through the car window, Chen Xijiu could see the disheveled Zhuyouzai inside. Judging from his expression, Chen Xijiu already guessed that he was definitely not simple.
Chen Xijiu then told A Long to wait for him in a secluded spot, while he went into the coffee shop alone.
As soon as Piggy saw Chan Sai Kau, he waved to him.
"Ah Jiu, you've finally arrived. Please have a seat."
Chen Xijiu sat opposite Zhuyouzai, looking at him with surprise and slightly frowning.
"What did you call me here for today? Did Brother Le give you a hard time again?"
Chen Xijiu joked with a smile.
Brother Lok had embarrassed Piggy quite a bit in front of him before.
Upon hearing Chen Xijiu's words, Zhuyouzai's face indeed darkened.
He stared sharply at Chen Xijiu.
"Now you understand Brother Le's conspiracy, right? If we don't do anything now, who knows what will happen later?"
Chen Xijiu looked at the little piglet in front of him with great interest. He really didn't expect that the little piglet had betrayed Brother Lok and actually had so much evidence of Brother Lok's crimes in his hands.
"Tell me, what exactly do you want? I already consider you a thorn in the side of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and you still dare to meet with me? You really have some nerve."
Upon hearing Chen Xijiu's words, Zhuyouzai felt his scalp tingle.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, a little annoyed.
“I never expected that the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) would start targeting me. They have now secretly sent people to monitor me.”
"I went through so much trouble to shake them off, Ah Jiu, you have to help me this time, I don't want to die."
Piggy is nowhere near as rich as Brother Lok.
He was also thinking about collaborating with Chen Xijiu, which would be a huge challenge for him.
Chen Xijiu sat in the chair, remaining expressionless.
If things were really that easy, everyone could go against the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC). Even though Chan Sai-kau was the Governor's man, he still had to avoid the ICAC.
"I can't help you with what you want to do. Brother Le has plenty of evidence against you."
“If you start fighting like dogs, then the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) will reap the benefits, and I will be implicated as well. I’m not going to do something so foolish.”
Chen Xijiu's words were like a bolt from the blue, making Zhuyouzai's heart jump into his throat instantly.
He still didn't give up, and when he looked at Chen Xijiu, he dropped a bombshell.
"Actually, I've always known that Brother Le doesn't think much of you. The reason he used to make you clean up messes was simply because he knew you were a promising talent."
"I never expected your momentum to be so strong these past few years."

Chen Xijiu was a little embarrassed by what Zhuyouzai said.
If he hadn't climbed the social ladder by marrying Elena, he would probably still be that Ah Jiu whom everyone could trample on.
Chen Xijiu remained calm in the face of Zhuyouzai's words.
"Just say what you want to say now. Anyway, there's nothing Brother Le can do about it right now."
"Although the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has been monitoring you, they haven't taken any action yet, so you are still safe."
Only after hearing Chen Xijiu's words did Zhuyouzai feel a little relieved.
He glanced around and, finding no one there, breathed a sigh of relief.
“Ah Jiu, I knew you were a righteous person. The matter with the Independent Commission Against Corruption is not as simple as we thought.”
“Brother Le used to embezzle a lot of money at the casino. As long as I hand over the evidence, I can clear myself of all charges. But I want a powerful backer.”
Piggy's words made Chan Sai Kau immediately understand his intention.
I have absolutely no desire to have anything to do with them anymore.
