HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

This verdict was like a bolt from the blue, completely announcing the end of Situ Chu's glorious life.

Even if there is a possibility of commutation of sentence in the future.

But at his current age, he is destined to spend the rest of his life in prison and never leave.

With Situ Chu's imprisonment, the Hongmen fell into chaos with no leader.

Behind this series of changes, there was actually Lin Yao's careful planning.

Maxwell, a barrister who is quite influential in the legal community, had already been successfully bribed by Lin Yao through a combination of soft and hard tactics.

Lin Yao knew very well that Maxwell was a crucial chess piece in order to bring down Situ Chu.

After Situ Chu was sentenced to 120 years in prison.

Situ Ning naturally became the new generation leader of the Hongmen.

The four major Hongmen families are all shrewd and calculating people. They not only know the power behind Situ Ning.

He also has a deep understanding of Lin Yao's terrifying strength.

They knew in their hearts that if they did not cooperate, they would not support Situ Ning's ascension to the throne.

Then the next ones to be eliminated by Lin Yao would undoubtedly be themselves.

In fact, Lin Yao’s original plan.

The next step is to uproot these four major families.

But considering many factors, we still need to be fully prepared.

To ensure that Situ Ning's position is secure and not unstable;

It is also necessary to make the four major families willingly push Situ Ning to the top and create a situation where everyone wants him.

The first step is to let Situ Ning return to Hongmen.

After all, before this, Situ Ning had been expelled from the Hongmen.

This process seems simple, but it actually requires careful planning.

Lin Yao knew that he couldn't act too hastily when dealing with the four major families of the Hongmen.

The frog must be boiled in warm water.

Being too radical may cause unnecessary trouble.

As for Situ Chu, Lin Yao did not intend to let him live peacefully in prison.

Lin Yao planned to let him die in prison within three months. This seemingly difficult matter was not a difficult task for Lin Yao.

In this state without the death penalty, all you have to do is bribe a prisoner serving a life sentence in jail and all your problems will be solved.

As long as the money is in place, many things can be easily accomplished.

Of course, this takes some time to ensure the whole process is seamless.

A set of smooth little combos that leave no room for error.

Attorney Maxwell offered to help Lin Yao with this.

Maxwell has been in the legal profession for many years and has done this kind of shady work more than once or twice, so he is very familiar with it.

The reason why Lin Yao could control Maxwell so easily.

In addition to giving him a huge bribe of 10 million US dollars.

You can instantly understand the threats and inducements.

Therefore, without even half a second's hesitation, he decisively agreed to cooperate with Lin Yao.

By the way, there is another social lawyer of the Hongmen in history named Fu, who was the Grand Commander of the M Country four times in a row.

Three days passed in a flash, but for the four major families, these three short days seemed as long as a nightmare.

They were horrified to find that the Gulf Group and some unknown armed forces were harassing their industries non-stop like ghosts.

These attacks were like dense raindrops, hitting their carefully constructed business empire and making them unable to defend themselves.

To make matters worse, several of their capable men died inexplicably.

The murderer seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

These successive blows hit the four major families like a heavy hammer, making them completely panic.

In fact, the four major families all know the reasons behind all this very well.

They also understand what measures they should take if they want to get out of this predicament.

However, the cost of that seemingly feasible solution was too huge, far beyond what they could afford.

But the reality is so cruel that they don't have the slightest hesitation.

That night, the moonlight was as bright as water, but it could not dispel the gloom in the hearts of the four major families.

They all sat together with heavy hearts, trying to come up with a good strategy to deal with the situation.

The atmosphere in the conference room was so depressing that it made people breathless, and everyone's face was filled with worry and confusion.

After a heated discussion, Zhou Wei, the head of the Zhou family, slowly stood up and made a concluding speech with a serious expression:

"Either fight to the end, or surrender to Lin Yao. We simply don't have a third option now."

The heads of the other three families had no choice but to do so, no matter how reluctant they were.

They knew in their hearts that there was only one choice before them, and that was surrender.

Confronting Lin Yao is undoubtedly like hitting a rock with an egg, and there is no chance of winning.

After decades of experience in the underworld, they are all shrewd people, and no one is stupid enough to fail to see the situation clearly.

If they continue to fight, only troubles and crises that will never end will await them.

Only by choosing to cooperate with Lin Yao to a limited extent can the entire family survive this crisis safely.

But how easy is it for these families who have always been high and mighty in the arena to make such a choice? They repeatedly weighed the pros and cons in their hearts.

In the end, the four major families chose to compromise with Lin Yao.

The next day, the sun rose as usual, but the situation in the martial arts world had quietly undergone earth-shaking changes.

After tossing and turning all night and weighing the pros and cons, the four major families collectively expressed their submission to Situ Ning.

They knew in their hearts that although this seemed to be a submission to Situ Ning, it was actually a submission to Mr. Lin, the man who controlled the situation behind the scenes.

Lin Yao has become famous in the underworld of Country M!

But Lin Yao knew in his heart that he must not take the four major families of the Hongmen lightly.

The surrender of these families was only temporary, a choice they were forced to make under tremendous pressure.

In order to consolidate his position and control the situation, Lin Yao acted decisively and immediately dispatched elite members of the War Hall and Wind Hall.

These well-trained men, like sharp blades, quickly penetrated into the core of the four major families and took control of their lifelines.

Lin Yao knows very well that in the power game of the underworld, the economic lifeline is the key.

Therefore, he decisively cut off the financial resources of the four major families, depriving them of the capital to act recklessly.

At the same time, Lin Yao also sent a clear signal to the four major families:

As long as they make any unusual moves or try to resist, they will be met with ruthless sanctions and will be killed immediately.

After solving the problems of the four major families, Lin Yao turned his attention to the broader world of Jianghu.

Next, he set his sights on the Green Gang and the Mafia.

The Mafia, a society that originated in Italy, is now omnipotent under the leadership of the Cleon family.

They are good at both black and white. Not only do they have terrifying strength in the underworld, but they are also very successful in the white world and have everything they want.

If not for this, they would not have been able to develop so far in the martial arts world and become such an influential force.

After careful consideration, Lin Yao decided not to list the Mafia as his primary target for the time being.

In his opinion, the Qing Gang is relatively easier to deal with.

Therefore, Lin Yao did not hesitate to launch a fierce all-round attack on the family of Qing Gang leader Ximen Xiongba.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Although the Ximen family has a certain foundation in the underworld, they have no way to resist Lin Yao's overwhelming attack.

Under Lin Yao's attack, the Ximen family's defense line was like fragile paper and collapsed at the first touch!

Ximen Xiongba watched helplessly as his family quickly collapsed under Lin Yao's attack, his heart filled with helplessness and despair.

The Green Gang, an organization with deep roots in the underworld, was originally a workers' group at the Grand Canal shipping docks.

Due to the fierce competition between each dock, the local characteristics of the Green Gang became extremely serious over time.

This unique development process has led to the formation of a complex power structure within the gang.

The current Green Gang leader, Ximen Xiongba, is deeply trapped in it and suffering terribly.

Although Ximen Xiongba bears the title of gang leader, he is unable to effectively control the five major families within the gang.

Normally, whenever there was trouble, everyone would push him to the front and respect him as the gang leader.

But if there are benefits to be gained, then he, the gang leader, will be left aside and no one will pay attention to him.

Just like this time when Lin Yao launched an attack on Ximen Xiongba, the people from the five major families just stood by and watched, doing nothing, and were unwilling to lend a helping hand.

Faced with such a desperate situation of internal and external troubles, Ximen Xiongba was forced to humble himself and visit Lin Yao in person.

He knew in his heart that if this continued, his family would be wiped out in the storm.

He hoped to negotiate with Lin Yao alone, trying to find a glimmer of hope to save the family from danger.

…

In New York City, the sun shines on Lin Yao's luxurious villa, reflecting a dazzling light.

In this seemingly peaceful villa, Lin Yao and Qing Gang leader Ximen Xiongba had their first meeting.

The living room of the villa is decorated magnificently.

However, at this moment, the tense atmosphere was like an invisible rope, tightly strangling the hearts of the two.

The moment Ximen Xiongba stepped into the living room, his eyes fell on Lin Yao.

Lin Yao looked calm, but his eyes were filled with an elusive depth that made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Ximen Xiongba took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He knew that the upcoming negotiations with Lin Yao would determine the fate of his family and even the entire Qing Gang.

Looking at the young but powerful Lin Yao in front of him, Ximen Xiongba couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.

He had been in the martial arts world for many years and had seen countless storms, but when facing Lin Yao at this moment, he inexplicably felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

Ximen Xiongba calmed himself down, slowly took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner tension, and said:

"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Ximen Xiongba, the leader of the Qing Gang."

He tried to keep his voice steady, but the slightly trembling tone still revealed his inner uneasiness.

Lin Yao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said slowly:

"Aren't you a little late to see me?" There was a hint of blame and teasing in the calm tone.

"Sorry, Mr. Lin, I was delayed by something!"

Ximen Xiongba hurriedly explained, his eyes full of apology. He secretly groaned in his heart, regretting that he had not come to communicate with Lin Yao earlier.

"Boss Ximen, you came to me this time probably because of the recent dispute, right?" Lin Yao looked at Ximen Xiongba, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts.

"Yes, Mr. Lin, we are both Dragon people, why should we fight to the death?"

Ximen Xiongba forced a smile, trying to impress Lin Yao with the sentiment of being of the same origin, hoping to ease the tense situation.

"Mr. Ximen, it's not impossible to cease fire with you, but it depends on your sincerity!"

Lin Yao took a light puff of his cigar, slowly exhaled an oval smoke ring, and spoke calmly.

His eyes pierced through the smoke and fell on Ximen Xiongba.

The look in his eyes seemed casual, yet it seemed to conceal tremendous power.

Ximen Xiongba knew that every answer he gave next would be crucial.

This negotiation is like a war without the smoke of gunpowder, with both sides cautiously testing the waters.

Ximen Xiongba must show enough sincerity to have a chance of survival for the Qing Gang and his family.

"Mr. Lin, what do you think I need to do to express my sincerity?"

Ximen Xiongba asked cautiously, beads of sweat already oozing out of his forehead.

He knew very well that at this moment his family and the Qing Gang were on the brink of a cliff, and if he was not careful, there would be no recovery.

Lin Yao was silent for a moment, his eyes slowly swept around the living room, as if he was thinking about something.

Then, he refocused his attention on Ximen Xiongba and said:

"Mr. Ximen, the Qing Gang has a huge influence in this area and has many businesses."

"I don't want to be too extreme, so how about this, I want half of the dock under the Green Gang"

"In addition, you need to pay me 30% of your monthly income."

Lin Yao's tone was calm, but the conditions he stated made Ximen Xiongba's heart sink.

Ximen Xiongba secretly groaned in his heart, this condition was indeed harsh.

The wharf is the foundation of the Green Gang and controls its economic lifeline. The monthly payment of 30% of the profits has greatly damaged the interests of the Green Gang.

But he also understood that Lin Yao was now very powerful, and if he did not agree, the consequences would be even more disastrous.

When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!

But if I agree, what will the brothers below think?

"Mr. Lin, this..." Ximen Xiongba looked embarrassed and tried to gain some leeway.

"The wharf is extremely important to the Green Gang. Can this half of the wharf... be reduced? In terms of revenue, 30% is really too much. Do you think it is possible..."

Lin Yao raised his hand to interrupt Ximen Xiongba's words, his eyes turned cold.

"Mr. Simon, to be honest, I have given you a lot of face."

"You have to understand that with my current strength, I can completely uproot the Green Gang. If you think the conditions are not suitable, then we don't need to discuss it anymore." (End of this chapter)
