Hong Kong Island Old Events

"Sir William, He Shenghe's future business depends on your care." Ma Xiru knew very well that there was no turning back when leaning against Gui Lao. But when the Political Department came to him, he was not even qualified to refuse.

Because whether it is the Political Department or the Three Flags, they have enough power to manipulate him at will. At the same time, the Three Flags need to follow the rules of the world, but the Political Department does not. A powerful force that does not follow the rules is enough to make the bosses of the society bow their heads.

Sometimes, Ma Xiru secretly regrets why she opened a newspaper.

He wants to clear his name, not be a urinal for the rest of his life!

William pulled the box in front of him, opened the buttons, and saw layers of Hong Kong dollars, at least two to three hundred thousand.

"You mean the flour business?" He was not stupid.

If it was to take care of the newspaper business, there would be no need to take so much cash.

Ma Xiru said: "Yes."

"I offended Ho Ting-hsien by writing a newspaper, and Ho Ting-hsien will definitely not let me go easily. Burning the newspaper office is just the beginning. Three Flags manages all the stalls in Hong Kong. Even the cigarette brands are under the control of Three Flags."

He said with a sincere expression: "I'm afraid that He Dingxian will attack my flour business."

William frowned slightly, holding a small spoon in his right hand and gently stirring the coffee: "Not really."

"The cigarette licenses were issued by the Serious Crime Team. If you withdraw them at any time, I'm afraid that other associations will be uneasy. Besides, you are Yin, Shenghe is Shenghe, and you are not the leader of Shenghe."

"If He Dingxian wants to mess with you, there is no need to use Shenghe's cigarette cards."

When the font size is honestly counted.

Delisting without authorization is a big no-no.

He Dingxian is the maker of the rules of the world, the first beneficiary of the rules, and the first defender, breaking the rules for a newspaper.

No politician worth their salt would do it.

Ma Xiru sighed and said: "Sir William, I have offended He Dingxian before. He Dingxian did not come back to find trouble because of Shenghe's reputation. Now he is openly opposing him. Even if he does not accept Shenghe's cigarette card, he will definitely do it. Go about my business.”

"So, I want to slowly hand over the stall business to others and just make money by transporting goods behind the scenes."

This means giving up the benefits of distribution and focusing on wholesale.

In the 1980s and 1990s, during Lei Lei's anti-drug campaign, wholesale was the most profitable. On the contrary, the profit sharing companies who dismantled the goods had thin profits, high risks, and were prone to accidents.

The drug lords who really made a lot of money at that time were all the dealers behind the scenes, dismantling the goods to different salesmen, dismantling the goods layer by layer, and organizing a tight sales network.

The big bankers cannot make money from the entire chain, but they hide themselves underwater and have high security. But today's big bookmakers eat everything from beginning to end, making a lot of money and paying a lot of fees, and the risks are even higher. In fact, it was because the four major bankers were too harsh during the money empire era and blatantly sold out that all four major bankers collapsed in the integrity crisis, and none of them could continue to do business.

Therefore, the big dealers behind were willing to go through distribution. However, Ma Xiru now faced a crisis and took the initiative to shrink underwater. It was indeed a good move. Maybe he could build an extremely large, complex, and hidden supply chain.

The Political Department is fully capable and has opened a stable freight line. The Ma brothers only need to take the freight to the dock and then hand it over to other big guys in the society.

If there is money to be made, there will be plenty of people to take over, and since the Ma brothers are willing to give up their interests, they may even be able to gain support from a group of professional people within the club.

"Huh." Ma Xiru held a cigarette in her mouth, lowered her head and lit it with a match. He calculated in his mind that the stall owner was entirely responsible for the stall fees, and the police fees were not collected from the people behind the scenes, so the large amount of fees saved was actually extra profit.

If waterway security can increase cargo volume, it does not need 50%, but only 30%, or even 20%.

He will never make less than he does now.

William closed the cash box and said displeasedly: "No smoking in the cafe."

Ma Xiru smiled: "The police can't collect money yet, and we can't sell fans on the street!"

"Crack."

William closed the cash box, left a personal business card, stood up and said, "Contact me if you have anything."

Ma Xiru breathed a sigh of relief in her heart: "Thank you, sir!"

At least, the support from the Political Department can give him one more bargaining chip and one more trump card when facing the Three Flags.

the next day.

early morning.

He Dingxian finished his porridge at home, put on his tie, went out and took the bus to Tai Kwun, and just sat down in the office. Seeing that the chief had not closed the door, Yan Xiong came forward with a document: "Sir He, the crime reports in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island came out yesterday."

"read!"

He Dingxian crossed his legs and leaned on the chair, holding a cigarette between his fingertips.

Yan Xiong opened the file and said aloud: "Yesterday morning to five o'clock in the evening, thirty-four foreign banks' shops in Kowloon District were vandalized, smashed, looted, and twelve of them were burned."

"Eleven foreign shops were robbed in Hong Kong Island, and a Chinese newspaper office was burned. The one that was burned was the Lucky Horse Racing newspaper."

He glanced at the officer from the corner of his eye and saw that the officer was indifferent. He continued to read: "More than forty robberies occurred, of which 13 were street robberies and more than 30 were home invasion robberies. According to the criminal organization of each jurisdiction, According to statistics, the total crime losses in Hong Kong amount to more than HK$5.7 million."

"Among them, a single Jockey Club robbery in Hong Kong Island caused losses of up to HK$1.68 million, and several betting shops were robbed."

"The death toll caused by the crime has reached 67, and there were four robberies and enhanced violence."

He Dingxian was not surprised at all. This is the consequence of social disorder and the meaning of the existence of the police force!

In just one day, so much damage was caused. What if it goes into the night? What if it lasts for how many days? You must know that darkness is the best time for criminals, and evil thoughts will continue to expand with their actions. This is also the reason why the top leaders of Gui Lao bow their heads quickly, because they cannot afford to lose!

Yan Xiong added: "Those who died and suffered physical abuse were all British ghosts. There were also four robberies, involving Chinese shops."

"Three criminals were shot dead and the remaining six have been arrested."

He Dingxian nodded: "There are always people who challenge the rules, beat the bad guys who rob Chinese shops to death, and throw them into the street in sacks for passersby to see."

Yan Xiong stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir!"

Then, he stepped forward and put the documents on the table, looking at the officer behind the table. He Dingxian was slightly surprised, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"fine."

Yan Xiong said: "It's just that the electrical appliance store on Apliu Street has a big price reduction this morning. There are some more clothing stalls on Tong Choi Street, and many imported foreign goods are on sale."

He Dingxian laughed when he heard this: "Hahaha, if you want to buy something, go ahead and buy it. Why not buy something cheap?"

"yes."

Yan Xiong answered again, exited the office, and carefully closed the door. When he returned to the office area, a clerk immediately came up to him and asked, "Brother Xiong, what did the boss say?"

Yan Xiong answered simply: "Reasonable and legal, fair trade."

"hey-hey!"

Huang Bingyao smiled: "That's great!"

These greatly reduced electrical appliances range from a few hundred to a thousand, especially those with damaged appearance, which are sold at half price to 30% off. The shop owner may take it back at 20 or 30% off!

The brothers have some extra money on hand. Some are planning to buy a house, and some have already bought a house and are planning to buy two electrical appliances.

"Achao, let's go shopping together in the evening."

"No problem. Do you want to get up from Tianci?" Chen Zichao asked.

Hong Tianci shook his head: "Forget it, I have to be on duty at night."

Raymond suddenly interrupted: "Add me."

Some of the clerks were previously afraid that A Tou would chase the dirty ones, but now it seems that A Tou has made it clear that he has no intention of pursuing the dirty ones. Just kidding, with a salary of several hundred yuan a month, you won’t buy any discounted goods, so why go after the dirty ones? Will the ghost guy give you a refrigerator or a TV?

Yan Xiong was sitting on a chair and suddenly reminded: "Remember, don't wear uniforms and go to the streets."

"I know, haha." The brothers burst into laughter. If they went to the streets in uniform, I'm afraid the merchants would have to sell them at the original price for the things they could buy at a 50% discount.

After He Dingxian processed several documents, he came to the chief's room with the crime report. Guan Xuanhe accepted the report and waved him out of the office without saying anything more. It seems that the top brass of the police force have learned about serious cases through yesterday's incident. The group no longer has the trust it once had.

Later, Guan Xuanhe personally handed over the crime report to the Commissioner of Police and said loudly: "Sir Mai, yesterday's crime report has been released. Almost all of the lost shops and dead and injured people were British and foreign nationals." host."

"It can be concluded that it was a premeditated incident against the colonial government. It was even a premeditated incident from the first murder case!"

Perhaps the police force can accept the loss of millions of Hong Kong dollars and the death toll of dozens of people, but it must not accept the victims of British foreign actors.

The numbers of these data are not huge, especially the death toll. If only a few dozen Chinese were killed, the report would not be delivered to the desk of the Commissioner of Police, but dozens of British people were killed.

This can be regarded as a naked provocation.

Colonists have always been the most sensitive to resistance, but after World War II, the Hong Kong government itself used the criminal group to quickly restore the rule of the bottom class. More than half of the ruling power at the bottom was entirely based on the Chinese criminal group.

McIntosh and even the Hong Kong government no longer have the ability to establish unshakable absolute rule from top to bottom. If they hit the criminal department with their fists, the already fragile colonial rule will become shaky.

He accepted the crime report and simply said: "I don't want something like this to happen again. Give me a plan for the aftermath."

Guan Xuanhe took a deep breath, understood what the director meant, and said: "We will reward Detective Hua who handled the case properly and performed meritoriously, and commend He Dingxian, the leader of the serious case team."

McIntosh nodded and said, "Let's do the work."

There are always two ways to perform meritorious service. The first is to defeat the enemy, and the second is to

He Dingxian feels that the Crime Unit has always been an excellent department that enforces the law with justice and is open to the outside world. It is normal for it to be commended.
