Chapter 67: The Leader of the Bamboo Union
As soon as the sound of Wu Dang's broken gong was heard at the door, Zhang An felt a sigh of relief in his heart and secretly cursed: "You stone pillar, if you came any later, you would have become the culprit who caused the split of Zhulian."
Zhou Rong saw Zhang Anle not speaking, thinking he had won, but unexpectedly halfway through, Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared. Wu Dun's loud shout made Zhou Rong's head spin. The other people on the scene were also staring blankly at Wu Dun who came in from the door, and for a moment, the hall was so quiet that even a needle falling to the ground could be heard.
Wu Dun glanced around at the crowd in the hall, grinned and said: "Brother, I'm late, don't mind me."
"Who am I? It turns out that I'm the one following behind Duckweed's butt. " Wu Dang's words were cut off by a person standing next to Zhou Rong.
A little brother was beaten up.
"Oh, so it's the green duck after all. I thought the white wolf's Tibetan mastiff had also been brought to the meeting." Wu Dun glanced at the young man and sneered.
"You......" The green duck saw Wu Dun compare himself to a dog, and in anger, he grabbed the iron rod in his hand and was about to fight Wu Dun to the death.
"Don't be impulsive, big things are at stake." Zhou Rong pressed down on Qing Ya's hand and whispered in his ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear. Seeing the boss say this, Qing Ya gritted his teeth and put away the iron rod in his hand, but still glared fiercely at Wu Dang and said, "Wu Dang, we'll settle this account later."
After Qingya finished speaking, Zhou Rong's cold face hung a faintly hypocritical smile and said: "A Dun, for such an important meeting in the gang, how could you be late? This is not right of you." Zhou Rong knew that Wu Dang was very popular in the gang. Since joining Zhu Lian Gang under the introduction of Chen Qirui, Wu Dang dared to fight and was loyal, every time there was a fierce battle, he charged forward, and had a good reputation in the gang.
So Zhou Rong didn't want to get on bad terms with Wu Dun at this time. But unexpectedly, Wu Dun ignored Zhou Rong and walked straight towards the front of the main hall with a few people.
Wang Wei was seeing a real-life gang gathering for the first time, so he was somewhat curious. Wearing a duck-tongue hat and following behind Wu Duan, he looked around at the Zhushanbang "brothers" in the hall.
It seems different from what's portrayed in the movies, where gangsters all wear neat suits and ties, plus a pair of cool shades. But these people in front of me, except for a few big shots who dress decently, the rest look like they just came out of a refugee camp.
"My words are enough here, I think none of you present have the qualifications to be the Grand Master of Zhu Lian." Wu Dun said with a sinister face, changing his previous silly appearance.
"What do you mean, you say that everyone present is not qualified, do you have the qualifications?" A branch leader of the Bamboo Union asked with some dissatisfaction at Wu's arrogant attitude, frowning and questioning.
"I don't have this qualification either." Wu Duan said with a glance at the hall owner.
"What do you mean, are you saying that if Yang Zhanzhang and Ya Bazai don't come out, Zhu Lian will never elect a leader? These past two days everyone has been fighting for themselves, but the losses have not been small. If we don't elect a leader, I think Zhu Lian will eventually be divided up by those wolves from Dead Sea Gang and Wenshan Gang." A cold glint flashed in Zhou Rong's eyes.
This Wu Dun is really ungrateful, a month ago he even sent his younger brother to test him, but unexpectedly Wu Dun was like a stone in the toilet, hard and smelly. He actually beat up his own younger brother and sent him back. Today he came again to ruin his own good things, if in the future he falls into his hands, he will definitely make this kid know that wolves are fierce.
Zhou Rong's words immediately triggered a reaction from a group of younger brothers. "Right, Boss Zhou is right, today we must elect a leader, these past few days the brothers have been fighting separately and have suffered quite a bit at the hands of those Dead Sea Gang bastards. We can't keep dragging things out like this."
In response to the reactions of his younger brothers, Wu Dun loudly shouted: "Everyone listen to me, I Wu Dun also agree to elect a leader, but I think that none of you seated here are qualified to be this leader."
"Then who is qualified?" the younger brothers asked loudly.
"He" Wu Dun pointed at Wang Wei on one side and said.
"Who is he? ...... Who is he?" The crowd in the hall saw Wu Dang pointing at a young man with half of his face covered by a duck tongue hat, and they all asked.
"Ah, you're not joking, are you? The most qualified person you're talking about is this young man?" Zhou Rong asked with a hint of amusement after glancing at Wang Wei.
"Yes, I'm talking about him. He is more qualified than any of you." Wu Dun glanced at Wang Wei and then said to the crowd in the hall.
"Don't be impatient, listen to me finish speaking."
Wu Dun glanced at several hall masters and asked, "I suppose all the hall masters present and the big shots in the gang know why Zhu Lian didn't set up a gang leader position back then?"
As soon as Wu Dun finished speaking, a very rough-looking man shouted: "All the brothers in the gang know about this matter. The reason why we don't set up a leader is to show our respect for Brother Wang."
The man who spoke was Zhao Yong, also known as Bai E Hu, the master of Tiger Hall. He was also one of the old brothers of the Zhonghe Gang back in the day.
Zhao Yong's words had just been spoken when they were echoed by other hall masters. "Right, to show respect for Brother Wang."
Seeing everyone's intense reaction, Wu Dun spoke again and asked: "Then what do you think of Wang Dage as a person?"
"Wu Dun, what do you mean by this? All of you big shots present, who hasn't received kindness from Wang Da Ge? When Zhong He Gang was first established, if it wasn't for Wang Da Ge insisting on not being the gang leader, how would Sun Lao Da have taken over? And if it wasn't for Wang Da Ge sacrificing himself to save us, all of you hall masters might have been chopped up by others already." The overall hall master of the Leopard Hall, Zhou Kai, also known as Qing Bao, said with a red face.
The words of Qing Bao immediately won the approval of a group of big shots.
Zhou Rong didn't know why Wu Dun brought up Wang Zuo Fu, the spiritual leader of their gang, but his intuition told him that this matter was not good for himself.
Zhou Rong furrowed his brow and shouted: "Wu Dun, today you're the one who's supposed to be in charge of talking, what are you bringing up about Wang Da Ge for? Don't you know that Wang Da Ge has already left? What kind of heart do you have?" Zhou Rong's words were very biting.
However, Wu Dun did not pay attention to Zhou Rong. Wu Dun continued to speak to the crowd: "If Big Brother Wang wants to take this position as the head of the hall now, do you think he has the qualifications?"
"What? You mean Wang Da Ge is still alive......" The crowd of big shots under the hall, including Liu Mao Chuan, the oldest veteran of the Bamboo Curtain Society next to Wu Dang, were also somewhat surprised.
"Qing Bao's eyes widened as he shouted: 'Wu Dang, you'd better explain clearly what happened to Wang Da Ge!' Qing Bao, like Chen Qi Li, had received help from Wang Zhao Fu in the past, so when Wu Dang mentioned Wang Zhao Fu, his emotions were stirred and he asked anxiously."
In response to everyone's inquiry, Wu Dun just smiled lightly and glanced at Wang Wei beside him.
Wang Wei slowly took off his duck tongue hat.
In an instant, all the big shots in the entire hall, including Zhou Rong and Liu Maohe, were stunned on the spot.
"Big brother, you are big brother." It took a long time for the master of Lion Hall, Zhou Bu, nicknamed Mao Shi, to react. Zhou Bu usually didn't like to talk, but when he did things, he was very ruthless and venomous. This gave his subordinates a sinister impression. At this moment, seeing Zhou Bu's lips trembling and eyes full of tears, his subordinates couldn't believe their eyes.
As Zhou Bo shouted loudly, other hall masters and elders also reacted.
"No, you are not the eldest brother." Just as everyone had just woken up from their shock, they suddenly heard Zhou Bo shouting loudly.
"Who else if not you?" The green leopard's eyes were bloodshot as he shouted at Zhou Bo.
But before Zhou Bo could explain, Wu Dang spoke up and said: "Mao Shi is right, he's not the eldest brother, he's the son of the eldest brother."
"Is he the son of Big Brother?" The big shots under the hall were stunned again.
"That's right. He is the son of Big Brother." Wu Dang said, letting Wang Wei turn around and take off his shirt, revealing a palm-sized moon-shaped birthmark on his back. This birthmark was also something that Wu Dang had only mentioned a few days ago. If Wang Wei hadn't still been unaware of this large patch of birthmarks on his own back.
After showing Wang Wei's birthmark to everyone.
Wu Dun said again: "Now you think he is qualified or not to be the leader of Zhu Lian."
After Wu Dun finished speaking, the big shots on the scene fell silent. Whether it was the former Zhong He or the current Zhu Lian, they were all created by Wang Zhao Fu alone. Moreover, which of the big shots present had not received Wang Zhao Fu's kindness? To this day, people still remember how Wang Zhao Fu led a few brothers to lure away those who wanted to destroy the Zhong He gang, allowing them to escape first. This is the rule of the underworld: "children repay their parents' debts". Therefore, Wang Wei was undoubtedly the most qualified candidate for the position of General Hall Master, including Ya Ba Zi and Yang Zhan Chang, the former General Hall Masters, who did not have the qualifications that Wang Wei had.
After a moment of silence, Qing Bao, Mao Shi, Bai E Hu and Bai Lang Zhang An Le and several others suddenly said in unison, "We are willing to support Big Brother's son."
The other younger brothers saw their master's attitude and immediately stood on Wang Wei's side. Even Liu Maohe, who had always maintained a neutral attitude, expressed his support for Wang Wei.
When Wang Weiliang revealed his identity, Zhou Rong knew that the situation was already set in motion. Even if he himself had received favors from Wang Weiliang's father, Wang Zhaofu, at this time, he also led the people of Yatang to express their support for Wang Weiliang.
It ended like this, Wang Wei stared blankly at the big shots in the hall who made ordinary people change their colors, feeling a bit strange in his heart. He didn't expect himself to become the leader of the Black Hand Party that could be famous all over the world so easily.
But none of that matters, what's important is that from now on he has a powerful invisible force within him, and how he chooses to use it. Thinking this, Wang Wei's mouth corners slightly curled up.
