Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

Since this was the meeting of the Du Clan Ancestral Hall, Du Yongxiao did not bring too many people here in order to keep a low profile. Except for Yan Xiong and Zhuang Dingxian who were waiting outside to support them, he was the only one present.

Eating melon seeds and drinking tea, Du Yongxiao directly regarded this ancestral meeting as a tea party. He sat at the table, crossed his legs, and was leisurely alone.

"Hey, brother, your surname is Du too?" A fat man saw Du Yongxiao eating happily and came over to ask.

Du Yongxiao nodded, "Hong Kong, Du Yongxiao. What about you?"

"Me? Du Shilin from Bangkok, Thailand. According to seniority, I am the generation of Shizi and you are the generation of Yong. I am your elder." After hearing Du Yongxiao's name, the fat man immediately put his hands behind his back and raised his tail.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "We are about the same age, there is no need to talk about that, I will call you eldest brother."

"No, we can't mess up the seniority. I am your elder. This is written in the genealogy. Well, according to the order, I am your cousin. Come on, call me cousin." The fat man looked at Du Yongxiao with a look on his face. proud.

"Okay, okay, come on, cousin, eat some melon seeds!" Du Yongxiao gave the other party a handful of melon seeds.

The fat man still wanted to pretend to be an elder: "Look at you, what kind of melon seeds are you stuffing me with? I already have the right atmosphere. It's so embarrassing for you to make me like this. How can I still be your cousin?" He took the melon seeds and started to eat them.

"Now, don't say that my cousin didn't remind you that the people here today are all big guys. In addition to our Tu clan in Bangkok, there are also Tu clan people from Chiang Mai, Nonthaburi, Wulong and other places." The fat man chewed melon seeds and spit out the skin of melon seeds, and said to Du Yongxiao, "You are young, I am optimistic about you, you must have a bright future, so you must seize the opportunity-"

"Well, why do you think so highly of me, and how do you know I have a bright future?" Du Yongxiao asked the fat man Du Shilin.

Du Shilin chuckled: "You are handsome. Handsome people are very lucky, just like me!"

Du Yongxiao was surprised, "Like you?"

"Why, am I not handsome?" Du Shilin puffed out his chest and belly, assuming the posture of an extremely handsome boy, "Don't look at me now. It's because I was in a car accident and took hormone pills, which made me fat. When I was thin, I was just like you, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a tall and straight figure. I was so handsome that when I walked on the streets of Bangkok, the girls would throw bananas, apples, and cantaloupes at me—"

"Ahem, isn't that Pan An's deeds?"

"That is to say, I am more beautiful than Pan An!" the fat man said proudly.

"Did anyone throw durian at you?"

"I'm so embarrassed!" Fatty Bai Du Yongxiao glanced at him, "I'm talking about business with you, do you think I'm joking?"

"No, I'm just asking."

"Hmph, I'm very optimistic about you. I think you have a bright future and I want to give you some advice..."

"Guide me?" Du Yongxiao was stunned for a moment, "How?"

The fat man Du Shilin smiled mysteriously, "Well, you don't know this, right? Let me ask you, why are you holding a clan meeting or an ancestral hall meeting?"

"It's boring."

"A child cannot be taught!" The fat man despised Du Yongxiao, "There is a purpose for doing this."

"What purpose?"

"Of course it's to gather the strength of the Du clan and help us, oh no, it's to help you juniors get to the next level."

"Going to the next level? What do you mean?"

"Are you really not understanding or are you pretending not to understand?" The fat man felt that Du Yongxiao was ignorant and had a scornful face.

"I really don't understand." Du Yongxiao turned his head into a rattle.

The fat man sighed: "Hey, you are still young!"

After finishing speaking, he said with an old-timer attitude: "Now let me teach you! All the big shots here today, among them the most famous of our old Du family is of course Du Taigong, and then there are Du Taigong's three sons, Du Tianlong , Du Tianhu and Du Tianbao are known as Du's Dragon, Tiger and Leopard."

"These three people are amazing. In addition to being businessmen, they also have good connections with Thailand's political circles. If you don't do business and want to join politics, you have to curry favor with them. Maybe after their recommendation, you can also squeeze into politics."

Next, Du Shilin recounted various deeds of the three brothers of the Du family, bragging about how awesome and amazing they were, making them smeared and splashed, their cheeks flushed, and they almost had an orgasm.

"In a word, Mr. Du's lineage is the most successful of our old Du family. Their status in Chiang Mai is unparalleled. Even the mayor and county chief give the Du family face. Every year before the Ten Thousand Buddhas Meeting, People from many branches of the Du family will gather here to discuss the gains and losses of the year, communicate with each other, and then discuss the planning progress for the next year. Of course, it is also a time for each family to compare with each other. "

Fatty Du Shilin continued.

"Besides these elders of the Du family, the most outstanding ones are the children of the three brothers Du Tianlong. They are known as the Du family's dragons, tigers and leopards. Their children are the descendants of dragons, tigers and leopards. As the saying goes, tiger fathers have no dog sons!"

As the fat man was talking, he saw a commotion in the crowd, and a man in his mid-twenties walked in from outside.

People around were talking a lot.

"Wow, is this Du Jiaju, Du Tianlong's son?"

Du Yongxiao was one of the more handsome young people at the scene, but when a young man with a gloomy face walked into the venue, all the boys and girls immediately looked over.

Even the many elders sitting in the lobby stared at the young man.

"Chiang Mai Du Jiaju, the most outstanding person of the Du family generation!"

I don’t know how many people were sighing. Even the fat man Du Shilin frowned slightly and said, "Did you see that? Although this Du Jiaju is not as handsome as you, he is capable! I heard from others that this Du Jiaju is brave enough to fight and hard-hearted. . In the end, it is said that he was appreciated by the mayor of Chiang Mai and became the youngest Chinese councilor in Chiang Mai. He was very talkative and helped the Du family with many things. "

Sure enough, Du Jiaju stood up from the crowd, entered the lobby and took a seat, sitting in front of everyone else.

This time, the attendees at the Du Family Ancestral Hall Conference were divided into three waves. Generally, the juniors were in the third wave, with the lowest status. Those who were in the second wave were already great, and there were even fewer who could advance to the first wave.

There is no one like Du Jiaju who "enters the room" as soon as he comes in.

"Tsk tsk, Ah Xiao, so in addition to being handsome, this person must also be capable. Only in this way can he be promoted to the first row and become a master. Everyone will fawn on you and praise you, like If we are squeezed into the third row like this, it will be difficult for us to get ahead in life!"

Seeing Du Yongxiao looking towards the lobby, Du Shilin thought he was jealous and explained.

"Really? It seems like you have to keep fighting. To be honest, I don't envy you at all. If I want to go in, I can come and go even in the Thai Royal Palace, let alone a mere Du Family Hall?" Du Yongxiao said lightly. .

"Oh, you are bragging!" Of course Du Shilin didn't believe it, "Although I have never heard of your name, but you are from Hong Kong, how do you know the people in Thailand and return to the palace? I guess you don't even know which way the palace gate opens. I don't know." Du Shilin sneered.

Du Yongxiao smiled and patted Du Shilin on the shoulder: "I didn't expect that you would see through my first bragging."

Du Shilin looked proud, "Of course, I am very good, especially when it comes to judging people. But don't be discouraged, Xiao. As the saying goes, don't bully a young man into being poor. You are still young. With plenty of time, coupled with my sincere teaching and guidance, maybe in the future you can be like this Du Jiaju, young and promising, and extremely majestic! "

As he was talking, more and more people came to congratulate him. It turns out that the Du family's ancestral hall meeting is very famous every year. Each family invites many close friends to attend, and many people even take this opportunity to make friends and give gifts.

This time is the time to show off the connections of each family. As for the descendants of the Du family, it is the time to show their personal style and win the collective support of the Du family, which is also known as "the carp leaps over the dragon's gate".

Think about it, if the entire Du family concentrates its efforts on supporting a young man to rise to power, whether he is in business or politics, he will definitely skyrocket.

The fat man Du Shilin who was standing with Du Yongxiao talking about the mountains at the moment had participated three times. Every time he watched the Du family select the absolute best and provide various resources and support, which made him jealous.

It was the same this year, but having Du Yongxiao as a foil next to him made him feel much more comfortable. Look, even such a handsome Ah Xiao didn't have a chance to squeeze in front and show off to Du Yongxiao, so why should I feel uncomfortable?

At this time, there was a silence.

It turned out that it was Taigong Du who stood up and spoke.

Everyone looked at him with admiration.

Only Du Yongxiao was still eating melon seeds, crossing his legs, looking indifferent.

Fatty Du Shilin poked Du Yongxiao with his finger: "The old man has spoken, please stop eating melon seeds."

"He talks about his words, and I eat my melon seeds. We don't interfere with each other."

The fat man rolled his eyes, "You are hopeless!"

From Fatty's point of view, this ancestral meeting is a good opportunity to show off in front of the elders. Even if it doesn't work, it can't be like Du Yongxiao.

No matter what, the fat man hurriedly pushed out his chest and belly, looked at Taigong Du firmly, and said silently in his heart, "Look at me, look at me! See how I behave well."

"Heirs of the Du family -" Mr. Du said, "Our Du family is now able to take root here in Thailand. The prosperity is due to the hard work of our Du family members and our courage to fight..."

The opening remarks are to praise how the descendants of the Du family worked hard to change their destiny and realize the value of life in Thailand, as well as how they achieved extraordinary careers and strengthened the Du family's connections, etc.

After the opening remarks, Mr. Du emphatically praised the three brothers Du Tianlong and the Du Jiaju brothers. In Mr. Du's words: "Our Du family will need their support in the future. We must work together to make the Du family's career a success." Be bigger and stronger!”

On the rostrum, the three Du Tianlong brothers were beaming with joy and accepted congratulations from everyone.

Du Jiaju looked even more proud, with contemptuous eyes, as if he didn't take anyone seriously.

In fact, he does have this qualification. Among the younger generations of the Du family, he is considered the best among the best, the best among the elite.

Being able to be valued by the mayor of Chiang Mai at a young age, serve as a government councilor, participate in major decisions, and protect the Du family's career, this kind of achievement is not comparable to ordinary people.

While everyone was flattering Du Tianlong and others, someone suddenly shouted outside the Du family mansion: "Mayor of Chiang Mai, Mr. Peng Hui is here."

Several people poured in at the door, led by the man in a suit and leather shoes, who walked steadily and looked confident, looking like a government official.

"This is the Mayor of Chiang Mai? Why is he here? Is he here to make Du Jiaju look good?"

Fatty Du Shilin whispered.

Sure enough, Du Jiaju, the proud man on the stage, had already stood up and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Oh, Lord Mayor, why do you come here in person? How can we, the Du Family Ancestral Hall Assembly, bother you to travel so far?"

"Haha, your Du family ancestral hall meeting is such a big event, how can I not come to participate? Besides, you are an elite handpicked by me. You have been a member of the council for so long and you have done your work seriously and responsibly. You have lived up to my expectations. I am here this time too. I’d like to take this opportunity to praise you!”

"How shameless! It's all thanks to your cultivation, Lord Mayor! Come in quickly."

Du Jiaju laughed and welcomed Mayor Peng Hui in.

Everyone in the hall stood up one after another. Even Taigong Du stood up holding his chair. He clasped his fists towards Mayor Peng Hui who came in and said, "Your Majesty, the mayor comes to this humble abode and you really shine!"

"Haha, you're so polite, old lady! It's an honor for me to be able to participate in the Du Family Conference!" Weiwei nodded. At his position, he still has to control his figure a lot of the time.

Taigong Du didn't take it seriously at all, but smiled. Normally, with his status, he wouldn't be able to meet such a big shot as Mayor Peng Hui. Today, it's a great honor for the other party to come over in person to congratulate him.

Of course, all this is due to Du Jiaju.

Old Mrs. Du looked at Du Jiaju next to him and gave him an approving look.

When Du Jiaju saw this, he felt even more proud and in high spirits.

"To be honest, your Du family has been very popular recently!" Mayor Peng Hui suddenly said with emotion.

"Ah, how do you say this?" Du Taigong didn't understand, and neither did everyone.

"Don't you know? The whole of Thailand has been talking about your surnamed Du recently, especially in the Golden Triangle. He has done great things..." Peng Hui is an important government official and is well-informed about some inside information. "To be honest, I came to the Du family this time to find out if the other party also attended the ancestral hall meeting. If I have the chance, I would like to meet him!"

"Huh? You came here to see him?" Du Taigong was stunned.

Others were also stunned, thinking that Mayor Peng Hui came here because of something, not because of Du Jiaju's face.

At this time, Du Tianlong, who was more informed, stood up and said: "Mr. Mayor, are you talking about the famous Mr. Du? The Mr. Du who destroyed the Golden Triangle warlord and unified the Golden Triangle, becoming the true King of the Golden Triangle?"

Mayor Peng Hui nodded, "Yes, I'm here just for him! It's a pity that Mr. Du's dragon has never been seen. Now many Thai government officials want to meet him and get to know him. I He is also one of them! In addition, even the Thai royal family respects Mr. Du and even actively invited him to participate in this year’s Ten Thousand Buddhas Conference!”

Hearing what Peng Hui said, there was a commotion at the scene.

"Wow, this Mr. Du is so awesome!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect there to be such a big shot in our Du family?"

"Big bosses in the government are chasing after me, and even the royal family has taken the initiative to extend an olive branch. This Mr. Du is really awesome!"

There were constant compliments and exclamations.

"I wonder how old Mr. Du is? He must be in his forties or fifties at least, right?"

"Yes, otherwise how could he have accomplished such a great feat?" Everyone said with admiration.

Taigong Du felt uncomfortable at first. He felt that the three brothers of the Du family, including his very optimistic grandson Du Jiaju, had been stolen from the limelight by this "Mr. Du", but when he thought that the other person's surname was also Du, it was hard to say anything.

"Ahem, but I don't know the specific name of Mr. Du?" the old lady asked.

Everyone at the scene pricked up their ears.

Mayor Peng Hui said: "His name is Du Yongxiao!"

"Well!"

Suddenly someone burped at the scene——

Then someone shouted: "Oh no, a fat man fainted and died!"
