Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chapter 151 Lu Yongheng and Shouhou's Arrangement

After Lu Yongqiang made the arrangements, Bingzai took his men back to the north that night, and Luo Tianhong also went to Kowloon City.

Wei Jixiang was determined to switch to Lu Yongqiang's tutelage. Even after Luo Tianhong explained everything to him, he still insisted on switching.

Shouhou and Lu Yongheng also started to move.

Lu Yongqiang now has four undercover agents under his command. One of them is Cao Dahua. He is not an undercover agent planted by the Tuen Mun Police Station, but a person from the West Kowloon Regional Command of the police. He is a subordinate of Lu Qichang, a senior inspector of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau there.

The reason why Lu Qichang arranged an undercover agent next to Lu Yongqiang was that Lu Yongqiang was asking for trouble himself.

In order to get money from Ni Yongxiao, he went to make a deal with Ni Yongxiao. In the end, not only did he kill Han Chen and his wife, he also killed Huang Zhicheng, the inspector of Organized Crime and Triad Bureau.

Huang Zhicheng was Lu Qichang's friend. After Huang Zhicheng's death, Lu Qichang had been investigating the cause of his friend's death. Later, he really asked him to find out part of the truth, and the truth led to Lu Yongqiang.

In fact, this matter was also Lu Yongqiang's fault for not being careful enough. He knew that there was an undercover agent around Ni Yongxiao, but he went to Ni Yongxiao to make a deal without any disguise. If someone investigated, it would be easy for him to expose himself.

Chili and Curry are from the Serious Crime Squad of Tuen Mun Police Station. They went undercover at Siyan's place to investigate a murder case.

However, before the two of them could make any progress in their investigation of the case, Four Eyes unexpectedly had an accident.

The two originally planned to return to the police force, but unexpectedly their superiors asked them to go undercover with Lu Yongqiang. So the two followed Four Eyes' men to join Lu Yongqiang's side. Unexpectedly, as soon as they joined, their identities were exposed without even meeting Lu Yongqiang once.

Since these two people are undercover agents arranged by the CID department of Tuen Mun Police Station, Lu Yongqiang cannot completely exclude them. Otherwise, if there is no progress, he may not be able to continue his undercover work.

Lu Yongqiang asked the two of them to follow Jiu Wenlong and be responsible for the affairs of the snack street. Working in the snack street, they have to come into contact with all kinds of people. Under Lu Yongqiang's special arrangement, the two of them got some clues from time to time.

During their undercover period, although the two did not obtain any evidence of Lu Yongqiang's crime, they helped the Tuen Mun Police Station solve a murder case, a serial robbery case, and several small-scale drug trafficking cases.

These cases were all clues found by Skinny Monkey, who then told the two of them through the mouths of street thugs, allowing them to make meritorious deeds. Of course, he also helped to improve the security environment in Lu Yongqiang's territory.

Even with these gains, the two were unable to obtain evidence of Lu Yongqiang's crimes, but their superiors were unwilling to reinstate them and instead asked them to continue working as undercover agents. After all, under Lu Yongqiang's special arrangement, the two were much more useful than the informants the police had.

The last undercover police officer was named Zhu Wangcai. It might sound a bit corny, but he was the highest-ranking of the undercovers. His superior was a superintendent from the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau in the New Territories North Region. He had been working under Luk Wing-keung since he was just starting to rise.

This man was not young, in his late thirties or even forty. Because of his age, he was not a core member of the security company. Otherwise, Lu Yongqiang would be in trouble. Putting aside other things, just based on the pile of arms that Lu Yongqiang brought from China, it would not be an exaggeration to accuse Lu Yongqiang of the crime of buying and selling arms.

Lu Yongqiang did not do anything with Zhu Wangcai. He still made him an ordinary security guard as before and occasionally sent him out to check on the place.

The four undercover agents belong to three parties. Shouhou and Lu Yongheng treated them fairly this time and gave each party a big piece of information.

…………

Brothers Entertainment City was originally a place for Lu Yongqiang to use for his own people to have fun. When it first opened, the people who came to the entertainment city to play were basically Lu Yongqiang's own people, and there were almost no outsiders coming to play.

At that time, only seven floors of the ten-story building were open for business, and the top three floors were never open. Lu Yongqiang intended to use the top three floors as his headquarters building, and he planned to use the top floor as his own residence.

But he has always lived in Dong Si's villa, and he is used to being in charge of the security company. The three floors above have been empty and unused, and have not even been renovated.

Perhaps the more mysterious a place is, the more appealing it is. Brothers Entertainment City has adopted a membership system since its opening. Non-members are barred from entering. Outsiders seeking entry require a member's guarantee.

The reason why Lu Yongqiang established the membership system was that he wanted the place to be pure. After all, it was just among his own people, so there was no cheating. Moreover, the prices of drinks and other things were relatively affordable.

Perhaps others saw all this as a marketing tactic. After the casino opened, many people wanted to check it out. Later, Lu Yongqiang's subordinates turned the guarantee system into a business. Some people would hang around the casino, offering to let anyone in. For a fee, Lu Yongqiang's men would guarantee them entry. By this point, the membership system had lost its original purpose.

Later, Lu Hao was in charge of managing this place. After realizing that the membership system was not working, he discussed with Lu Yongqiang and decided to change it to an open business where anyone could enter.

Originally, Lu Hao was planning to change the prices of drinks to be similar to those in other nightclubs, but Lu Yongqiang thought about it and felt that most of the people playing in the venue were his subordinates, so he did not change the prices of drinks.

The prices were favorable, and the environment was naturally good. This was Lu Yongqiang's headquarters, so the decoration was naturally not bad. As for security, no one dared to come here to cause trouble. Even Lu Yongqiang's people didn't dare to mess around in the place.

After opening for open operation, the entertainment city became extremely popular. Many office workers from Tuen Mun loved to go to the entertainment city to play, and people from Yuen Long and Tsuen Wan also drove here to play.

The business was so good that the originally spacious place seemed a bit crowded, so Lu Hao started to think about the top three floors.

The casino was later moved to the top floor, and only super VIPs were allowed in. The seventh, eighth, and ninth floors were used as massage parlors and rest rooms.

The sixth floor was converted into a gym, the fifth floor a billiards hall, and the lower four floors remained unchanged, still housing the restaurant, bar, and KTV rooms.

Since the place was handed over to Lu Hao to run, Lu Yongqiang didn't care much about it. He just let him do whatever he wanted. Even if he lost money, it didn't matter.

That night, Cao Dahua was working at the entrance of the entertainment city. Although the monthly salary of parking attendants like them is not much, the extra income is not small. As long as they are sweet-talkers, the tips they receive can add up to several times more than their salary.

Cao Dahua was a cowardly undercover agent, and for him, a peaceful life was more important than anything else. After working under Lu Yongqiang, he never pried into matters, and even when Lu Yongqiang deliberately leaked some information to him, he was too lazy to report it. For him, less trouble was better than more.

Of course, while Cao Dahua is afraid of death, he is also greedy for money and lustful. If there is any important information that can get a large bonus, Cao Dahua will naturally not let it go.

Tonight was the day Cao Dahua was destined to make a fortune. He had just parked his luxury car in the underground parking lot. As he was leaving the parking lot and turning a corner, he faintly heard two men talking about something like Number Four and the warehouse.

As an undercover police agent, Cao Dahua subconsciously hid in a corner to eavesdrop when he heard sensitive words. This eavesdropping led him to overhear valuable information: two men on the other side of the corner were discussing the location of a flour warehouse in North Point.

Having overheard such valuable information, Cao Dahua immediately left quietly. After Cao Dahua left, the two men who had been talking just now looked at each other and immediately drove away. Their mission was completed.

While Cao Dahua was happily calling his boss, Chili and Curry were also calling their boss.

Chili and Curry also made a big haul tonight. Unlike Cao Dahua, their haul was not a drug warehouse, but a large boatload of illegal immigrants in Tuen Mun.

After occupying the Qingshan Bay Fish Market Pier, Dinosaur not only continued to operate Four Eyes' gambling boat, but has recently been engaged in the human trafficker business, specializing in helping Thirteenth Sister smuggle women from other countries to the port city.

There is a reason why Thirteenth Sister can earn tens of millions a month on Bolan Street. She has connected with many foreign forces through Han Bin's smuggling routes, and she has been doing human trafficking business with these foreign forces.

Basically, dozens or even hundreds of young women are sent to the port city as smuggled immigrants every month. After arriving in the port city, these women are divided into different levels.

The most beautiful ones, Thirteenth Sister, will be specially trained and will eventually become the top stars in high-end nightclubs or bars.

Those who are not so good looking can become KTV hostesses or massage girls in massage parlors with a little training.

The lowest class will be sent to a stable to receive guests, or become a prostitute in a building.

Thirteenth Sister did not go to extremes. After these women arrived in the port city, the cost of smuggling, plus training, resident permit application, accommodation and other expenses were all paid by Thirteenth Sister in the early stage. They only needed to double the money to earn it back to Thirteenth Sister, and then they could be free.

In the evening, Jiu Wenlong took La Jiao and Curry to the snack street for a walk. When La Jiao went to the toilet, he happened to hear someone making a phone call while squatting on the toilet. The content of the call was about picking up someone at Qingshan Bay in the early morning, including what time the smuggling boat would arrive and what the signal was that both parties agreed on.

In fact, investigating the smuggling boats is not the job of the CID, but the intelligence is so detailed that it is like getting credit for nothing, so the CID department naturally does not mind staying up late at night to make a trip.

As for Zhu Wangcai, Lu Yongheng and Shouhou also had arrangements.

Zhu Wangcai usually looks low-key, but he is actually quite smart. Apart from doing his job well, he never takes the initiative to inquire about information. He doesn't talk much and looks honest and loyal. There is no problem with him at all.

When Shouhou investigated this man, he didn't find anything wrong with him at first. However, Shouhou's senior brother Niuqiu saw at a glance that there was something wrong with this man. He discovered that the lighter used by Zhu Wangcai was actually an antique worth nearly 100,000 yuan.

According to the information collected by Shouhou, Zhu Wangcai grew up in an orphanage and started hanging out at the age of 18. He never made a name for himself and lived a life of poverty and wealth. He had no house, no car, and no wife. Before he married Lu Yongqiang, he lived a life of hunger and starvation.

When Lu Yongqiang was waving the flag, he followed Lu Yongqiang and became a younger brother of Hongxing, and only then did he gradually settle down.

Based on the information investigated by Shouhou, if it is true, then Zhu Wangcai could not afford an antique lighter worth nearly 100,000 yuan.
