Hong Kong Island Old Events

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Ligang finished breakfast on the roadside, walked quickly into the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, and came to the office on the second floor. He nodded to several police officers who greeted him on the way, and when he saw a ghost inspector, he quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Good morning, sir! "

"Good morning." Inspector Gui Lao nodded gently in a suit.

When Chen Li came to the door of the office, he saw a young and capable police officer guarding the door: "Good morning, sir!"

"Good morning."

Chen Li regained his majesty as a commander, proudly puffed out his chest and answered in a deep voice.

"Click."

He stretched out his hand to open the door, took a step into the office, then turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Sir, I had dinner with Sir Cai yesterday, and Chief Cai asked me to bring you some gifts." He Dingxian put a plastic bag on the table with two Marlboros in it: "Let me say hello to him. "

Chen Li sneered when he saw this: "Damn it, Cai Zhaoguang is notoriously stingy. Because of the help he has given me in the past, I have to pay for every foot wash. Why do you ask you to bring gifts?"

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Chen Li looked at him with a smile. He Dingxian didn't dare to pretend anymore and said bluntly: "I want to open the dollar store business in Yau Ma Tei, and I hope the commander will help."

Chen Li was a little surprised: "Didn't your dollar store just open in Sham Shui Po? It's expanding so fast!"

Ho Ting-yin said with a smile: "As long as there are enough funds, movie dollar stores can sprout all over Hong Kong immediately, and two more stores can be opened in Sham Shui Po."

"At least three stores can be opened in Yau Ma Tei, one on Shanghai Street, one on Kwong Wah Street and one on Temple Street."

The population of Yau Ma Tei is concentrated, and three streets in different directions can make enough money for the entire district. If they are opened more, the customer base will be dispersed.

At the same time, the cinemas in Kowloon are concentrated in Mong Kok, which will not affect the business of dollar stores.

Chen Li pretended to be surprised and said: "Hong Kong is blooming all over the place? Doesn't that mean we have to open hundreds of shops and earn millions of Hong Kong dollars a year?"

"Axian, should I change my name and call you Boss He? I didn't expect your brain to be so useful!"

However, He Dingxian quickly shook his head: "Actually, the business of dollar stores is mainly concentrated in Kowloon. People in Hong Kong Island definitely look down on dollar stores. They think it is embarrassing to watch movies in dollar stores. Hong Kong Island is at most near Chai Wan and Mount Davis. Open a few and let the people in the housing estates take a look. The New Territories villagers don't even want to spend money on a dollar store, so they can only feed a few at most."

"Only Kowloon has a large consumer base and is the most suitable area for opening a dollar store, especially the Yau Tsim Mong area, which can support more than a dozen stores in total."

Although dollar stores focus on low-level consumption, due to regional economic imbalances, the geographical location of consumer groups is very clear.

Now there is not even a movie theater in the New Territories, so it is impossible to come to a dollar store to spend money. It will take at least five to ten years to open the dollar store into a movie theater chain before it is possible to make money from the New Territories villagers.

You should know that the New Territories, which border the mainland, were the last to be brought under the jurisdiction of the British Hong Kong government, the last to be developed, and the poorest.

People from the New Territories either live a self-sufficient life in the towns or go to Kowloon and Hong Kong Island to work.

He Dingxian said: "So, I must speed up to seize the market. As far as I know, there are already two dollar stores in East Tsim Sha Tsui and Jordan, and there are three in Kowloon Tong and Wong Tai Sin. Although I can't do as well in either place. , but the total number of stores is already more than mine.”

"Among them, the boss of Tsim Sha Tsui East and Jordan is named Huang Shijun, and behind the scenes is the Chinese Inspector Zhang Jingrong of the Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station. For the shops in Kowloon Tong and Wong Tai Sin, the boss behind the scenes is the Chinese Inspector Zhao Yutang of Kowloon Tong."

Chen Li nodded: "Who did you ask for information?"

He Dingxian replied: "Chao Yiyong's Yau Ma Tei talker was Chaozhou Zou."

Chen Lin snorted: "Whether it's Kowloon Tong or Tsim Sha Tsui, they are all the people of Chief Inspector Liu Fu. How can you compete with them for business?"

He Dingxian smiled and said: "I don't intend to compete with them for business, but we must also defend our own territory. Zhang Jingrong and Zhao Yutang are from Dongguan and the other is from Ningbo. They are all minions of the Dongguan Gang." Zhao Yutang was from Ningbo who relied on the Dongguan Gang, so he was more loyal to Liu Fu than to his father. It is said that he even made a big boss of the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce his godfather.

Chen Li also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we have to defend our own territory, but your business is not my business, why should I help you?"

He Dingxian laughed when he heard this and nuzzled his lips towards the cigarette on the table: "Brother Li, here are two cigarettes."

"You only keep one for yourself?" Chen Li was surprised after thinking about it. He Dingxian said: "I just want to protect my own territory and my own business, and never let outsiders make all the money."

"You surprised me." Chen Li looked at him with admiration, reached out to pick up the two cigarettes on the table, and promised: "I will leave the business in Yau Ma Tei to you, but I can't finish the two cigarettes. Score one for Inspector Zeng."

"Sir, please take it for me later." He Dingxian said aloud.

"Haha, no problem. As long as you don't slap 10,000 yuan on the table today and ask me to sell you as the leader of the military uniform team, I will agree to help you." Chen Li smiled very kindly and spoke with each word. But it revealed murderous intent.

He Dingxian said righteously: "Sir, I am not someone who forgets my roots!"

Chen Lize said: "You are a smart person, but I like people with brains. I think you don't need to save money. If you have enough, give me 10,000 yuan one day, and I will promote you to team leader at any time."

He Dingxian looked happy and stood at attention, saluting: "Thank you, sir."

Chen Li sat down, took a sip of tea and waved his hand: "Let's go out."

"Goodbye, sir." He Tingxian closed the wooden door of the Sheriff's Office with an extremely excited expression. Since Chen Li had agreed to give him the business in Yau Ma Tei, at least the business in the three areas of Shek Kip Mei, Sham Shui Po and Yau Ma Tei would be saved.

With this piece of land, you can first earn tens of thousands of yuan a month. Not only can you have food and drink, but you can also accumulate a considerable amount of funds, which can be used to continue business and manage relationships.

The key is that Chen Li promised to accept the income from a movie store. Presumably Detective Zeng Shaoke would not refuse. In this way, the entire Yau Ma Tei Police Station would become his backer, and it would be the most stable interest relationship in the world. He could consider the next step. Expanded territory.

"There are currently two chief detectives on Hong Kong Island. The chief detective on Hong Kong Island, Gao Yongsheng, is from Chaoshan. He is the current leader of the Chaoshan Gang in the police force."

"Kowloon District Chief Inspector Liu Fu, a native of Dongguan, is the person in charge of the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce in the police force. The New Territories District Chief Inspector will not be established until five years later. These two are the pinnacle of power of the Chinese police. Gui Lao is in Last year, the appointment and dismissal of Chinese police officers was carried out. The first chief Chinese inspector Yao Mu retired. Liu Fu, who had previously taken root in Hong Kong Island, was transferred to Kowloon District to serve as chief inspector. The chief Chinese inspector of Kowloon District was transferred to Hong Kong. serve on the island.”

"During this period, the Chinese detectives in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island have undergone drastic changes. The Chaoshan Gang in Kowloon only has two sites in Yau Ma Tei, Sham Shui Po and Kwun Tong."

"Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Kowloon Tong, Jordan, Tsuen Wan and others have all replaced Detective Hua from the Dongguan Gang. Now that things have happened, the remaining Detective Hua from the Dongguan Gang will definitely not sit still and wait for death, but they will fight every chance they get!"

He Dingxian was never willing to give up his money to others. Defending the Chaoshan Gang's territory was just the most basic thing. If he had a chance to stand out, he would definitely win all the businesses in Kowloon.

He couldn't fight the Dongguan Gang by himself. If he dragged Chen Li and the others into the water, he might be able to recruit more people to help him.

Does Chen Lihui know this? Maybe they know it, maybe they are willing to go with the flow. Anyone may be the fortress of the next struggle. Whether they can win to the end depends on their own abilities.
