After getting the inspector's token, Jiang Jiahao couldn't wait to go to West Alley and took over the Zihuatan in West Alley.

As an inspector, his status is lower than that of a deacon, equal to the red stick and white paper fan, and he can receive the club bonus issued by Zihuatan on a monthly basis.

In addition to receiving dividends, Zihuatan under Jiang Jiahao's name is considered semi-privatized, and the profits only need to be handed over to the society for taxation.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the news that an inspector was stationed at the Flower Beach in Xixiang spread to every corner of the pig cage.

Many gamblers come here because of the reputation and want to show off their skills in Jiang Jiahao's venue, but some gamblers stay away from the West Alley to avoid the sharp edges of the inspectors.

In the lounge, Jiang Jiahao, who was already in charge of a place all by himself, finally didn't have to worry about eating, drinking or eating.

When he had spare money, he started working on his side business. He sat behind the desk and wrote silently for several days.

"Brother Hao, this is the profit from yesterday's noon to today's noon."

"Hmm, do you have a new manuscript?"

At this time, Buck-toothed Su came in with a money bag, pushed the proceeds from Zihuatan in front of Jiang Jiahao, took a piece of manuscript paper and looked at it with bright eyes.

He has recently become obsessed with Jiang Jiahao's manuscripts. These stories are so beautifully written that they are simply fascinating.

After extinguishing the cigarette butt, Jiang Jiahao opened the bag, poured the contents on the table, and classified the proceeds.

Seeing this, Buck Yasu quickly put down the manuscript and followed Jiang Jiahao to sort out the proceeds.

The pig cages were inhabited by poor people. They came to play with money, and at best they could only play with a few cents. Occasionally, they would meet big players, and their gambling capital would be over a hundred at most.

Moreover, some gambling funds are all kinds of weird. Cigarettes, rings, necklaces, watches, and even deeds of prostitution can all be used as temporary gambling funds, and Huatan will accept them without fail.

Today is the weekend, the day to pay Zhou Gong, and we just need to wait for Buck Yasu to sort out the proceeds.

Jiang Jiahao will take out four levels of the week's income and send it to the supervisor for reporting. This week's task is considered to be over.

"Brother Hao, today I made a total of 3121 yuan, 5 cents and 8 cents. Well, there is also a watch, a box of cigarettes, and more than 20 Yingjing Entertainment Center chips."

"Well, it's been a hard day, so take it and spend it."

Jiang Jiahao put the unopened cigarette aside and gave Buck Tooth Su a change of more than 120 yuan.

He casually recorded today's income in his account book, stacked the income in the safe, took out the Zhou Gong prepared in advance, and prepared to leave.

"Thank you, Brother Hao."

Buck-toothed Su bared two big buck teeth, put the money in his pocket with a smile, pointed at the manuscript paper on the table, and asked Jiang Jiahao's back: "Brother Hao, can I take a look?"

"You can keep it in the house, but you are not allowed to take it out."

"Brother Hao~"

"Hello, Brother Hao~"

After leaving the lounge, gamblers and spectators along the way saw Jiang Jiahao and greeted him respectfully.

Jiang Jiahao nodded, walked through the portals, crossed the streets and alleys, and came to the headquarters of Zihuatan, where he found Zhu Yongtian and handed over Zhou Gong.

Just as he was preparing to leave, he passed by the side door of the ancestral hall and saw that the big and small horses seemed to be arguing, so he hid in the distance and peeped.

The distance was relatively far, and both the big and small horses were arguing in low voices, so Jiang Jiahao couldn't hear what they were arguing about.

Seeing the two of them push open the door and enter the ancestral hall, Jiang Jiahao saw that there was no one around and followed them quietly.

After entering the ancestral hall, the quarrel between the big and small horses no longer deliberately lowered their voices, but became extremely fierce.

In Jiang Jiahao's impression, Xiaoma and Xiaoma have always been brothers and have never been red-faced. Today, it was the first time that they had a red-faced quarrel.

"Brother, let's kill Xie Sanbao and control his smoke brick channels. Do you understand how tempting this is?"

"As long as we have our own smoke brick channel, lame hao is nothing!"

"Even Lu Hua will have to look at our faces when the time comes. Only if we reward him with a bite of food will he have food to eat!"

"Brother, business is all about integrity. Lu Hua left the tobacco brick business to Lai Hao. We have broken the rules by purchasing goods from Xie Sanbao."

"Xie Sanbao is a close confidant of the Fish King. If we offend the Fish King, we will never get involved in the typhoon shelter in the future. Do you understand?"

"Tell me, where are you hiding my smoke bricks?!"

"You and I are brothers, and I don't want others to laugh at me because of a little cigarette!"

"Brother, I have already dispersed the smoke bricks. If you want the smoke bricks, then we can just knock Xie Sanbao out?!"

"Brother, let me tell you for the last time, where is the smoke brick hidden!"

"Brother, why don't you believe me!"

"Don't call me brother, I, Ma Hongjie, don't have a brother like you!"

"Ma Hongjie, we are brothers born together from our mother's womb, and you treat me like this?"

"Isn't it just a cigarette lighter? Let me tell you, without you, Ma Hongjie, I can still get cigarette bricks!"

"The smoke brick is there...who?"

The quarrel in the ancestral hall continued. Jiang Jiahao listened very carefully. Suddenly, Brother Ma shouted angrily. Jiang Jiahao thought he was exposed, so he turned around and ran away.

He only moved a little bit, suppressed his fear, and squatted in place motionless, not daring to make any sound.

"What are you two brothers doing? Do you want to kill me with a gun?"

"Look at your virtues. You had such a quarrel over a little cigarette brick. I could hear it clearly in the front hall!"

"You guys let me down so much!"

"Godfather?"

"Wong Lo Kat?"

Jiang Jiahao listened to the extra sounds in the room and secretly thought it was dangerous. He suppressed his curiosity and quickly moved away from the ancestral hall.

"I just found out where the smoke bricks are hidden in a daze?"

"Damn, it can't be them who tricked me, right?"

"Huh~ The one who is undercover is the original owner. I am just fulfilling his last wish. I don't really want to be an undercover for the rest of my life. I have to do my best?!"

"Whether it's true or not, just tell Jiang Zhitao about this and the task will be completed. As for whether Jiang Zhitao believes it or not, it's his own business and has nothing to do with me."

After leaving the headquarters of Zihuatan, Jiang Jiahao looked back three times every step. He always felt that there were pairs of eyes behind him staring at him, which made him feel uncomfortable.

In order to avoid being followed, Jiang Jiahao walked through the alleys and walked around several times before heading to Yau Ma Tei.

Jiang Zhitao is a street patrolman on Sanpu Street in Yau Ma Tei. He usually patrols the streets except during breaks.

When they arrived in Yau Ma Tei, Jiang Jiahao found a small restaurant called Xiangji Fish Ball, which was opened by Jiang Zhitao's wife. It was also one of the places where Jiang Zhitao and Jiang Jiahao often met.

Jiang Jiahao walked into Xiangji, found an empty seat and sat down, and waved to the proprietress behind the cashier.

"Sister, a bowl of fish balls, 30% spicy and 40% sweet."

"Beautiful boy, please wait a moment. I'll be here soon."

After a while, the fish balls were served. Jiang Jiahao poured half a bottle of balsamic vinegar and chewed them.

This tastes amazing.

Soon after finishing the bowl of fish balls, Jiang Jiahao wiped his mouth with some unfinished content. He glanced around and called to the proprietress.

"Boss lady, today's fish balls are so fresh. I'll take two more to take away."

When the proprietress brought the packaged fish balls, Jiang Jiahao handed the banknotes wrapped with small notes to the proprietress, and prepared to leave with two packaged takeaways.

As soon as he left the door of Xiangji, he met Jiang Zhitao walking towards him. The two exchanged glances like lightning, and Jiang Jiahao left humming a ditty.
