Chapter 364: Red Gate Meeting (2)
Chen Jiu had no hope for Wu Xuance's plan to rescue Wu Minghong and others through legal means such as lawyers. So he felt that he had to find a way to save his son. Instead of relying on Wu Xuance and others to save people, he might as well visit Chen Guangyao in prison more often in the future.
Chen Jiu had no specific idea about how to save Chen Guangyao. He planned to discuss it with Yun Qingchen after returning to see if Yun Qingchen could contact some important people. As long as Chen Guangyao could be rescued, he would be willing to pay some price.
After waiting for a long time, Mr. He still didn't hear anyone speak, so he became a little impatient. So he continued:
"We can only try to get them to stay in jail for a shorter period of time by finding a lawyer. We can't rescue them. If you want to rescue them, you have to make some efforts as well. Find your connections in the United States and put some pressure on Fefuli. Only then will you have a chance to rescue them."
After saying this, Mr. He looked at Chen Jiu who was sitting at the end. It was obvious that he was talking to Chen Jiu. As for the others, Mr. He didn't count on them at all, after all, they didn't have any business in the United States. They didn't have any connections in the United States.
Seeing Elder He looking at him, Chen Jiu complained in his heart: "Why are you looking at me? Counting on me to save Wu Minghong and the others? No way. I wish Wu Minghong would die in prison. That way, I can become an official elder. I will not save that troublemaker Wu Minghong."
Seeing that Chen Jiu still didn't speak, He Lao couldn't help but feel disappointed with Chen Jiu. He shook his head and said helplessly:
"Since no one is willing to contribute, let's forget about rescuing the people. Now we are short of two leaders and an elder in the Red Gate. While everyone is here, let's discuss who will take over these positions."
When everyone heard what He said, they immediately became enthusiastic. An old man with white hair and a hunched back said,
"I have a disciple named Chen Haonan. He was very brave in the conflict with the East Indian mercenaries and killed a lot of mercenaries. He made great contributions to the gang. I think he can be the boss of Texas."
Chen Jiu immediately became anxious when he heard someone was trying to take his son's position as the leader. He immediately said to He Lao:
"Chen Guangyao is still here, and you guys are trying to take his place now. Aren't you afraid that the people in the gang will be disappointed?"
The old man with white hair said nonchalantly:
"He's going to jail for life, why is he still hanging on to this position?"
When Chen Jiu heard someone say that his son would spend his whole life in prison, he immediately became furious.
"Who told you that he will stay in prison for life? Even if you stay in prison for life, he can't stay there for life."
"Chen Jiu, how can you talk like that? What's your attitude? Apologize to Elder Wu right away."
Mr. He scolded Chen Jiu.
Elder Chen waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Just because Chen Guangyao is in jail, I won't bother with him."
"Chen Jiu, why don't you thank Elder Chen quickly?"
When Elder He saw Chen Jiu looking at Elder Chen angrily, he immediately yelled at him again.
Seeing that Mr. He was angry, Chen Jiucai reluctantly apologized to Elder Chen.
Seeing Chen Jiu apologize, He Lao continued:
"Since Elder Chen has recommended someone, let's discuss it and see if he is suitable to be the leader of Texas."
Chen Jiu immediately stood up and said:
"This Chen Haonan has been in Southeast Asia all his life and has never been to the United States. He doesn't know the rules of the United States. I don't think he is suitable to be the person in charge of Texas."
Chen Jiu glared at Elder Chen after he finished speaking. "You want to take your son's position? I tell you it's impossible. Even if my son doesn't take charge, it won't be your turn to sit in this position."
Then Chen Jiu continued, "Chen Guangyao has a disciple named Crow. He has always followed Guangyao. He is very disciplined in his work and is very familiar with Texas. I recommend Crow to be the person in charge of Texas."
Seeing that Chen Jiu still wanted to keep his position as the boss of Dezhou, He Lao was a little dissatisfied. He had also been secretly investigating the incident in recent days. He found that Chen Jiu had been behind Wu Minghong's targeting of Lu Chen. So he was a little dissatisfied with Chen Jiu, the old man who followed him.
Now seeing that he still wanted to control Texas, He Lao snorted coldly and said:
"Chen Jiu, whichever Crow you recommended is not good enough? Didn't you hear what the people in Texas said? If you follow Crow, you will go hungry nine times out of three days. If he inherits the leadership, the people in Texas will have to leave the Red Gate."
"He went hungry for nine meals in three days. This boss is really bad at being a boss."
After listening to He Lao's conversation, the others laughed. This made Chen Jiu so angry that he gritted his teeth, and he was full of dissatisfaction with He Lao. I have been with you for more than ten or twenty years. It's fine if you don't help me, but you deliberately suppress me. Okay, old man, you wait for me.
Chen Jiu looked at Elder He and secretly became angry in his heart. Since Elder He was unkind to him, he should not blame him for being unjust to Elder He.
In the end, with the joint efforts of everyone, Chen Haonan finally became the leader of Texas.
As soon as Chen Haonan's matter was decided, Chen Jiu came out and said:
"Since the position of elder has been vacated, shouldn't the position of alternate elder be filled?"
Elder Chen nodded and said, "That's true. Wu Minghong has been managing the affairs in the Philippines. Now that Wu Minghong is in prison, we should indeed select someone to manage the affairs in the Philippines."
Elder He thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's choose one of the candidate elders to take over Wu Minghong's position."
When Chen Jiu heard this, he immediately stood up and said:
"I have done a lot for the gang over the years, and I have the longest seniority among the candidate elders. I think I can manage the affairs in the Philippines well."
He Lao would definitely not agree to Chen Jiu going to the Philippines to be an elder. You must be kidding. Lu Chen's arsenal is there. His own arms source is also there. If Chen Jiu goes to the Philippines, he will offend Lu Chen to death. He is still thinking about easing the relationship with Lu Chen and continuing to buy weapons from him. So Chen Jiu must not go to the Philippines.
"I think that the affairs in Nanyang should still be managed by people from Nanyang. After all, it's easier to get things done when you know the people there."
Chen Jiu was about to curse, "The Nanyang people are meddling in Nanyang affairs. Why didn't they say that the Texas people are meddling in Texas affairs when they were selecting the Texas leaders?" So Chen Jiu said angrily:
"Mr. He, what you said is not right. Just now, Chen Haonan, a man from Southeast Asia, took over as the leader of Texas. When it comes to the elders, why can't someone from the United States take over as the elder in Southeast Asia?"
