Chapter 69 Deng Wei, Deng Fei, and Uncle Deng!
"Damn it, these bastards, once I recover, I'll make them pay."
The chubby boy spat at the backs of those bastards, cursed a couple of times, and then turned to look at Zhang Guohao.
"You're very famous? You chased them all away, thank you."
The chubby boy raised his hand and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhang Guohao.
"You little brat, you're not very polite. I saved you, and you're not even being courteous."
Zhang Guohao squatted down and looked at the chubby boy.
"Being polite? Will it save your life? In this world, you have to rely on your strength!"
The chubby boy spoke to Zhang Guohao, looking every bit the hot-blooded youth.
"So you deserved to get beaten up? Because you weren't strong enough."
Zhang Guohao said to the other party.
"I will pay it back!"
The chubby boy wiped the blood from his face and said through gritted teeth.
As soon as he wiped his face clean, Zhang Guohao's eyes changed.
"No way, what a coincidence!"
Zhang Guohao muttered to himself.
Zhang Guohao ignored what the chubby boy was about to say and just looked down at the stick in his hand.
Zhang Guohao looked at the stick, then at the chubby boy, then at the chubby boy, then at the stick again.
What does it mean to say that "no story is complete without a coincidence"? This is exactly what it means to say that "no story is complete without a coincidence". Is there really a divine will in the dark?
The chubby guy in front of me, isn't that Deng Wei from Wo Luen Shing? He's the same Deng Bo who later manipulated the election of the Wo Luen Shing leader behind the scenes, nicknamed "Fat Deng" in the underworld.
The age also matches up. Deng Wei is eighteen or nineteen years old now. Twenty years later, when he is elected as the leader and the Four Great Detectives are at the height of their power, Deng Wei will still receive flower baskets from the Four Great Detectives.
Thirty years later, Deng Wei had become the behind-the-scenes boss of Wo Luen Shing, controlling countless elections for the Wo Luen Shing leadership.
At that time, Deng Wei was around seventy years old, which is a reasonable age.
"Hey kid, what's your name?"
Although he recognized the other person, Zhang Guohao still asked a question. If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. Zhang Guohao didn't want to be a charlatan, so there was no need for him to make himself omniscient and omnipotent.
"Deng Wei!"
Deng Wei said, his voice still quite deep. At this age, Deng Wei didn't yet have the imposing aura he would later develop; he was just an ordinary young man.
"You're very powerful, they're all afraid of you. I have no money, but I have a life. I can work for you for a year, two years. Give me a chance, I want revenge."
Deng Wei said to Zhang Guohao, "Just like those greenhorns who have just embarked on the path of the martial arts world, they are full of vigor, fearless, willing to risk their lives, and value their own lives very much. They always think that if they use their lives to negotiate with others, others will have to give them face."
However, this is exactly the kind of young people that shrewd and calculating bosses and big shots love to see.
These young people thought that because they were daring and willing to fight, they could rise to the top, become new elites in the underworld, make a lot of money, buy luxury cars, mansions, and women!
In reality, most of these young people will become pawns of those bosses and big shots, used to the extreme, and made to do dirty, dangerous, and deadly work!
If you're lucky enough to survive, then you'll be given a chance to climb the ladder; if you're unlucky enough to die, then it's all over.
These people all think they are strong, capable, and good at fighting and killing; all they lack is opportunity, and they believe they can rise to power once they have it.
As a result, most of them were killed on the roadside.
Those who don't know how to use their brains will only learn to be smart after years of being tortured by the world.
"I'm not one of those shameful gangsters; I'm a respectable person."
Zhang Guohao sat next to Deng Wei, thought for a moment, tore two pages from an old book, and used them to wipe the blood off Deng Wei.
"I don't believe it! They're all afraid of you. I heard from them that your name is Wolf Fang Hao! What kind of decent person would have a nickname? You must be a江湖人 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world)."
Deng Wei looked at Zhang Guohao with disbelief. His face was bruised and swollen, one eye was swollen from being hit, while the other eye was fine, but it was now one eye and the other eye was different sizes.
Deng Wei, with his uneven eyes, looked at Zhang Guohao with a serious expression, but it was a bit comical. The more serious he was, the more comical he looked!
"From what you're saying, you really want to join a gang?"
Zhang Guohao rubbed the stick in his hand, looking at Deng Wei, feeling that it was absurd. He had just obtained the Dragon Head Stick and then ran into Deng Wei. Was it fate that made him the big boss behind Wo Luen Shing?
In Hong Kong, which triad doesn't have a boss behind it? For example, Tung Fook Wo is backed by the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce, and the Number Gang is backed by Island Raiders.
Since I don't have much of a foundation right now, it's a good time to start from scratch and build my own underworld organization.
Deng Wei is a smart man! The fact that he was able to control the election of the leader of Wo Shing for decades shows that he is a clever man.
This clever guy is still a newbie in the game, and he's definitely worth training.
Zhang Guohao was quite curious about who should have held this stick. There were quite a few people in charge before Deng Wei.
For example, the person in charge before Deng Wei was called something like "Cockroach Qiang," and he was quite slovenly.
The original script was supposed to be about a group of people who got their hands on the dragon head cane and then started a new Sun Wo Luen Shing!
Now that Zhang Guohao has gotten the dragon head staff first, the future of those people is hard to say.
However, this Sun Wo Luen Shing is not something Big D can handle. If Big D wants to do that, he has to call it New Sun Wo Luen Shing!
"I'm determined to carve out my own path in this world!"
Deng Wei's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he spoke fiercely.
"Why?"
Zhang Guohao asked curiously, then took out two candies from his pocket, handed one to Deng Wei, and unwrapped one for himself, sucking on it while listening to Deng Wei tell a story.
"My mom always told me that children from poor families mature early, and that I should be hardworking, kind to others, and so on..."
With resentment in his voice, Deng Wei began to tell his story.
The story is quite cliché. Deng Wei is from Zhaoqing, and his family runs a small business. When they came to Hong Kong Island, they were often bullied by gangsters and thugs on the streets.
However, people from Zhaoqing don't fare very well in Hong Kong, and their triad influence isn't particularly strong.
Because Zhaoqing is located in the Xijiang River basin, the associations formed by people from Zhaoqing were classified as Xijiang-affiliated associations.
Most Hong Kong Island triads are categorized by ancestral origin; the more powerful a triad is, the smaller the place it is often associated with.
For example, Dongfuhe today almost represents all Dongguan people in Hong Kong Island.
The weaker the gang, the more they can only band together for warmth. Just like this Xijiang faction, several gangs from counties and cities with Xijiang as their ancestral home are grouped together.
With a small population and no local community to protect them, Deng Wei's family had to pay exorbitant protection fees.
Not only did they have to pay protection money, they were also bullied. The gangsters who collected protection money would beat and verbally abuse these small business owners, and would take away their small goods at the drop of a hat.
Deng Wei had long been fed up with this, so he joined the gang and vowed to take revenge in blood and in teeth!
