Chapter 98 Holy crap, all the undercover agents have arrived!
The bag felt cold and heavy to the touch. Jimmy opened the bag and glanced inside. The densely packed diamonds gleamed coldly under the light. Startled, he held his breath and frantically clenched the bag shut.
"Brother Sheng, this..."
Jimmy's voice trembled, and his hands holding the bag shook slightly, as if he were carrying not diamonds, but a mountain of gold that could fall at any moment.
"You're just handing over something this valuable to me like this?"
A diamond worth fifty million!
Jimmy weighed the pros and cons in his mind: even if he chopped up all his bones and sold them by the gram, it wouldn't be worth a fraction of the money.
Lin Sheng's trust was too heavy, so heavy that it made him feel a little suffocated.
Lin Sheng leaned back on the sofa, picked up a cigar from the table, lit it, glared at him, and said with a hint of impatience, "You were right beside me when I was eating fish balls at a roadside stall. If even you don't believe me, who can I believe?"
These words were like a warm current, instantly flowing through Jimmy's entire body.
His nose tingled, and his eyes reddened. He fought back tears, nodded vigorously, and said with unwavering determination, "Brother Sheng, don't worry! I'll handle things perfectly!"
Who says that gangsters only have conflicts of interest and no true loyalty?
His boss, Brother Sheng, is even more loyal and righteous than Guan Yu in the TV series!
Lin Sheng exhaled a smoke ring, a cigar between his fingers, and slowly instructed, "Find the owner and contact them directly. Don't go through any middlemen to avoid any complications."
Before Jimmy could nod, he added, "We can give up 10-20% of the profits, just to get back 40 million!"
Next, Lin Sheng told Jimmy the specific process of cashing out the diamonds and the points to avoid.
These diamonds belong to a jewelry company, and they had already purchased substantial insurance coverage.
Once the police file a case, the insurance company will begin the compensation process, and the loss to the jewelry company will not be significant.
Once the insurance money arrives, the jewelry company will buy the diamonds back from the black market at 70-80% of the market price.
The diamond has passed through countless hands, but its value has remained unchanged.
But many people have profited from it.
If you're bold and have a brain, you won't try to double-cross someone.
And they tried to find a way to cooperate with their elder brother.
Sell the diamonds back, then snatch them back after a while, repeat this several times—it's hard not to get rich.
Unfortunately, there are too many fools in this world.
"Brother Sheng, you even know these things? That's amazing!"
Jimmy had always admired Lin Sheng's business acumen, but he never expected that Lin Sheng would know about such things and be so adept at them.
If Lin Sheng were a ruthless bandit, he could keep profiting from the stolen diamonds.
At that moment, Jimmy couldn't help but sigh, "Those who become big shots aren't ordinary people; I still have a long way to go!"
Changing the subject, Lin Sheng first asked Bobo to go out.
Once he and Jimmy were alone in the private room, he asked with barely suppressed urgency, "How's the arcade business going?"
"Brother Sheng, it's almost ready. We can start production anytime!" Jimmy immediately composed himself and reported earnestly.
A few days ago, after Lin Sheng handed over the core technology of the arcade machine circuit board to him, he didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately sent his men to look for suitable electronics factories to produce it.
After finding a suitable factory, Jimmy invested heavily to buy it and hired several foreign electronic engineers to work overtime overnight to modify the production line to ensure it could meet the production requirements of video game consoles.
"It's still a bit slow."
Lin Sheng expressed his dissatisfaction.
But his eyes betrayed his approval of Jimmy's efficiency, and he urged, "Keep a close eye on it. Get the first production line up and running these next few days."
"Don't worry, Brother Sheng! I'll go and urge them to work day and night, and make sure there are no delays!" Jimmy immediately patted his chest to assure them, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Lin Sheng nodded in satisfaction and then instructed, "Li Yunfei will work for you from now on. Have him find a suitable shop to prepare for opening the arcade."
He had already made a plan in mind. Li Yunfei had a wide network of connections, was knowledgeable, and was quite skilled. He could make up for Jimmy's lack of connections, and the two of them would work together more smoothly.
"Understood, Brother Sheng!" Jimmy agreed without hesitation, without any objection to the arrangement.
After reporting on the arcade, Jimmy then brought up the situation at the bar, emphasizing that the bar's owner was Ding Yixie, the younger brother of the leader of the Chung Ching Society.
And his partner, Lei Yaoyang, the Thunder Tiger of Tung Sing.
Upon hearing those two names, Lin Sheng's lips curled into a cold sneer, his eyes filled with disdain: "So it was these two worthless bastards who were pulling the strings behind the scenes."
In his eyes, Ding Yixie was violent and impulsive, no different from a rabid dog, and not worth fearing at all.
However, that Lei Yaoyang, also known as Ben Lei Hu, is much more difficult to deal with than Ding Yixie, as he is cunning and ruthless.
Of course, they are only difficult to deal with.
With Lin Sheng's current power, killing Lei Yaoyang wouldn't take much effort at all.
His fingertips tapped lightly on the table, a ruthless glint in his eyes. No matter who it was, anyone who dared to block his way would pay the price.
Lin Sheng didn't take him seriously: "Jimmy, since Ding Xiaoxie of the Chung Ching Society has closed the bar, let's leave it at that!"
"Yes, Brother Sheng!"
Jimmy then reported the sales and profits of the counterfeit goods to Lin Sheng again.
Lin Sheng nodded in satisfaction after hearing this.
The business of selling women's underwear and counterfeit goods generates nearly a million yuan in profit every day, which is already quite good.
"Brother Sheng, a few more underwear factories have sprung up, selling at much lower prices than us. Want to get some business with them?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Sheng's eyes turned cold: "Find a few unfamiliar faces to do the work!"
Business competition is straightforward and unpretentious, and Lin Sheng naturally didn't want to see his business being snatched away!
Last time, when more than a dozen factories were burned down, they managed to pin the blame on Liang Kun.
Not now, we have to be careful and cautious, we can't give them any leverage!
"Brother Sheng, I acquired a few Fit horses yesterday. Want to meet them?"
Lin Sheng thought for a moment and nodded.
Jimmy immediately left the private room and returned shortly afterward, followed by several burly men.
Sitting next to Lin Sheng, Jimmy pointed to a young man who looked remarkably like him and said, "Brother Sheng, this is Qiu!"
Ah Qiu looked at Lin Sheng with admiration: "Old Master, my name is Su Jianqiu. I used to be with Hung Hing's Liang Kun. I'm very happy to have been chosen by Brother Jimmy. From now on, I'll do anything for you, no matter what."
Su Jianqiu spoke with a firm and powerful tone, leaving no room for suspicion.
Lin Sheng looked at this guy, then at Jimmy.
It seems that he is the only one who can distinguish the characters in this integrated Hong Kong variety show world.
Jimmy felt that Su Jianqiu looked somewhat familiar, but he did not think that they were the long-lost brothers, Li Sheng and Su Jianqiu.
Just like Jimmy did when he looked at Zhou Wenli, he wouldn't mistake her for Ruan Mei.
"This kid's not bad, he looks like he'll really get away with something!"
Lin Sheng shook his head and smiled.
"Thank you so much, Lao Ding!" Su Jianqiu thought Lin Sheng really appreciated him, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
