Rebirth: 1977
Chapter 1233 Boil the Frog in Warm Water
After Ye Tianshui finished speaking, the Fu Jinyan brothers received his hint, looked at each other, and then looked at him at the same time. They knew clearly in their hearts that Young Master Ye was just keeping them in suspense.
Just now, they had realized that this was what he was planning.
It's not that they don't have the ability to set up a gang of such a large scale in Hong Kong Island, but it's time-consuming and laborious, and they don't have that much time and energy to devote to it.
They had not realized the need before. After all, with the reputation of a wealthy family, no scoundrel dared to mess with them even when they traveled around the world.
They haven't suffered any losses in many years.
But Ye Tianshui's proposal made them feel a sense of crisis.
In particular, the more he came into contact with WEI, the more wary he became of him and his family.
As one of the two largest gangs in Hong Kong Island, the 'Si Qi Hui' is involved in industries including casinos, docks and shipping, as well as the entertainment industry, all of which are owned by the wealthy families.
It is very convenient to connect resources.
Moreover, once the wharf and port in Pengcheng are built, the sea transportation will be extended inland, and the potential benefits it can bring to them are immeasurable.
But if they directly said "yes" to WEI, what would be the result? They didn't want to guess.
At the very least, they already knew from what WEI said that although there were frequent internal struggles among their royal family, prime minister, and cabinet, there were limited resources, and they were all in the hands of those few people.
But what they paid was real money.
If it weren't for the fact that their rich family didn't suffer any loss through their fighting, they would have been willing to let them take advantage of them every time.
Some things are fine to be known in the heart, but when they are brought up and talked about in such a nonchalant and self-evident manner, it makes one feel uncomfortable.
Obviously, Ye Tianshui discovered it and was ready to take advantage of it. He really got control of the "Si Qi Hui". There were plenty of ways to divide and weaken the power that WEI had already distributed within it.
So, just now Fu Jinyan was fanning the flames from the side, while Ye Tianshui was making excuses reluctantly, and the two sides sang the same tune.
But, to be honest, WEI's request that each party share the profits in half is really a bit too much.
However, they are all businessmen and are on guard. So, it will not be WEI who has the final say on how the accounts will be settled.
Wei was filled with disappointment and doubt. He needed to discuss such a matter with his wife? What if she disagreed?
At least he was clear about one thing, that Ye Tianshui was an official.
"Then please ask your wife for her opinion, Mr. Ye. We will wait for her reply here." He was very anxious.
Fu Jinyan immediately laughed: "Master Ye, let us help persuade your wife. I believe that with the face of our brothers, she will still give it."
At this point, Ye Tianshui took advantage of the situation and stopped making excuses. It was a pleasant surprise to be able to get the "Si Qi Hui".
This is probably what the saying "loss in the evening may bring gain in the morning" means, right?
What he was eyeing was shipping. Once he had a shipping route in his hands, he would have the final say on this domestic and international maritime transportation hub.
However, he couldn't show up.
Even though Chen Jun, Xu Kai and others already have positions, they cannot interfere openly.
Sooner or later, the Hong Kong Island will be taken back. If you intervene in the affairs of underworld gangs, you will be tainted. It is possible to whitewash it, but traces will be left in the end.
"WEI, I can help you manage it, but my identity is not suitable for me to show up. Besides, I don't like to waste all my time on this.
My suggestion is that the top executives in charge of various industries should be people you trust at the moment, so we should not touch them for the time being.
I will help you observe and test them for a period of time. If they are loyal to you and have no intention of betraying you, we will continue to use them.
At the same time, we must be prepared for both situations and train a backup manager for each position.
Once we discover that anyone has ill intentions or is harboring suspicions about Boss Pan's absence for a long time and has rebellious thoughts, we can replace that person.
However, it is not convenient for me to be involved in the replacement and deployment of these personnel. You and the two brothers from the rich family will have to discuss and decide together.
What do you think? Brother Jinyan, are you and Brother Shenyan willing to spend a little more time and effort to help Wei? "
The rich brothers were silent for a while, then nodded and agreed: "Wei's affairs, of course, we can't just stand by and watch."
WEI was delighted: "OK, OK, OK, great, with your help in management, I don't have to worry about anything."
Of course he was OK with it. In his mind, Ye Tianshui was really just helping him with management and had no intention of "seizing power".
Needless to say, the relationship between the rich family and them is like a money bag for their family.
It's reasonable to help with this little bit.
Brother Fu Jinyan was a little confused about what Ye Tianshui's plans were. Since he had taken over, why didn't he just take the management rights?
What a great opportunity!
In front of WEI, they did not raise any objections and agreed readily.
The matter was discussed well and both the host and the guests were happy. WEI left with a smile on his face and felt very proud.
"Master Ye, why don't you take the power from us in one fell swoop? If you keep it in his hands, it will be an eyesore to us, and we will be constrained by him everywhere."
Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Fu Jinyan asked bluntly.
Fu Shenyan and the Tong brothers looked at him in confusion. They all knew that he had a lot of ideas, but it was a pity to miss such a good opportunity.
"My four brothers, you should have understood one thing by now: no matter how rich you are, no matter how much they want to fight, they still need your money to help them.
But deep down they still look down on the Chinese.”
Ye Tianshui spoke the truth directly and bluntly.
Tong Dawei and his colleagues have never had contact with senior royal family members, so naturally they have no personal experience.
But they have a deep understanding of the feeling of being a wanderer in a foreign country.
"Master Ye, we have been in contact with them for so long, how could we not know? It's just that we can't help it.
We are still lucky, and we have managed to succeed. There are gains and losses, and it is nothing more than an exchange of interests between each other.
If we didn't see through their tricks, how could we be where we are now? At least on the surface, they don't dare to offend us."
Fu Jinyan sighed: "So we want to know your next plan. If you didn't take the power of the 'Siqihui' from Wei, you must have a plan.
Don’t worry, we are all working together to support you to the best of our ability.”
Fu Shenyan also promised carefully: "Mr. Ye, we will support your decision."
Ye Tianshui smiled: "I just trust you, so I made the decision on my own and made the promise to WEI without discussing it with you.
My idea is that if we blatantly squeeze out the people arranged by WEI as soon as we take over, it will definitely cause his disgust and even make him confront us secretly.
The point is, we don't have anyone available right now.
Everyone in the gang says that they are righteous, but you also saw that Boss Pan and his men disappeared without a trace. Did they really think they could hide this from everyone?
It's nothing more than 'Once you're in the world, you have no choice'. The power of the Governor is concentrated. If he wants to destroy someone, isn't it a matter of minutes?
Therefore, if we rush to seize the power of the 'Siqihui' now, it will only backfire.
Brother Jinyan, do you remember the idiom "boiling a frog in warm water"?
Let's let WEI let down his guard first, and also get our own people in. Right now, his goal is to make money from the 'Siqi Society'.
But what we don’t lack is money.
We don't rely on it to make money right away.
Those who follow him now also think that they can make money by following him. We can observe them for a period of time, and then buy off those who can be bribed, and replace those who cannot be bribed with our own means...
In addition to placing our people there, we can also look for people who can be cultivated there.”
Ye Tianshui spoke slowly and told them his plan.
Only a few of you here are true collaborators.
Fu Jinyan: "Our people? You want to put the people you trust in there? Isn't that a waste of talent?"
Ye Tianshui looked at Chen Jun and Xu Kai standing outside the door and shook his head slightly:
“It’s not them, they are already officials and cannot touch the underworld.
I have just arranged for five people to come from the mainland. I will put them in first and let them start from the bottom. This will not attract anyone's attention.
With this waterway, my people can come here in batches and slowly infiltrate and take control.
We can even use two lines, light and dark.
If you have suitable people, send a few of them in. We don't need to fight for high-level positions. Our people just need to infiltrate whether it is a casino or an entertainment venue.
WEI is thinking about making money, and his eyes are definitely on places that can make money quickly, but we don't bother to make that kind of money.
As long as they are operating within the industry rules, we don't need to worry too much.
It's just that we have to take the shipping business seriously. WEI is a layman in this area and he doesn't understand whether it can make money or how much money can be made.
Brother Jinyan, you have a fleet and a dock, so you are an expert. Send a professional manager over here to familiarize yourself with the business first, and then find an opportunity to take advantage of this piece of fat meat!"
