MTL - The Son of Finance of the Great Age-Chapter 25 solicit

  Chapter 25 Solicitation

   "Of course it's not to bribe the governor of Hong Kong. How is this possible? Is it a display for you to be a member of the ICAC?"

  Zhong Shi lowered his voice and said to Liao Chengde seriously.

  The governor of Hong Kong is nominated by the British Prime Minister and then appointed by the Queen of England. The Governor of Hong Kong has a lot of power. He presides over the Executive Council of Hong Kong's executive organ and the Legislative Council of the legislature. At this time, the members of the two bureaus are still appointed by the Governor of Hong Kong. At the same time, the governor of Hong Kong is also a very prestigious person in the UK, and generally has a knight title conferred by the royal family.

Only when the last governor of Hong Kong, Chris Patten, changed most of the previous practices, including directly electing members, not accepting the title of knight, and not concurrently serving as the chairman of the Legislative Council, etc., and "degraded" himself to the chief executive of Hong Kong instead of Queen's surrogate.

It is impossible to buy such a person, even before the ICAC was established, not to mention that in 1974, Hong Kong established the ICAC, which is directly responsible to the Queen of England (Hong Kong Governor). In just a few years, Hong Kong, where corruption prevailed at the time, was turned into one of the cleanest regions in the world.

  In Hong Kong film and television works, the most fearful thing for those who exercise power and corruption is to be invited to the ICAC for tea. Its reputation is no less than that of the Security Bureau of the mainland in later generations.

   "It really scared me to death! Zhong Shi, let me tell you, this place is different from the mainland, and the investigation of corruption and dereliction of duty is very strict. Don't even think about your ghost ideas!"

  Liao Chengde wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, gulped down a whole glass of beer, and then said with lingering fear.

  What are you most afraid of as a businessman in China? They are most afraid of encountering officials. Since ancient times, being an official has been the first choice of Chinese people, and merchants have always been the object of contempt. Even people who are as rich as the enemy, most of them did not leave a good end in China's history books.

   Since ancient times, China has treated merchants like livestock. After they are fattened, they can be slaughtered as they want. The most typical example is Shen Wansan, the richest man in the country at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. He once funded the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty to build a third of the Nandu city wall, and built a large number of buildings in the Nandu city. But even so, Zhu Yuanzhang gave an order. All his family property was confiscated, and he himself was exiled to a place outside the culture, and he was not allowed to return to the Central Plains until he died.

In fact, in the history of New China, there was a period of time when the status of the merchant class was greatly improved, even overshadowing the bureaucratic class. Pressed tightly under the body.

  China has always been an official-based country. Even in Hong Kong, a place where the British have ruled for so many years, people still fear the officials far more than they fear the rich.

  Seeing Liao Chengde's reaction, Zhong Shi curled his lips, stretched out his little hand and said, "If you have any money, take it out!"

  Liao Chengde was stunned for a moment, seeing that Zhong Shi's expression didn't look like he was joking, so he had to take out all the nearly 10,000 yuan in cash from his bosom.

   "There are more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars here. If any of you help me beat that bad guy, I will give him all the money!"

  The short Zhong Shi stood on the bench, held up the money in his hand, and said to the bewildered crowd around him, of course he spoke in Cantonese.

Looking at the thick stack of money in the kid's hand, the food stall stall that was noisy a minute ago suddenly quieted down, and people's eyes gradually showed enthusiasm. Come.

"it's him!"

  Zhong Shi pointed to a table a few meters in front of him. On this table sat three young men with tattoos all over their bodies. Zhong Shi noticed that one of them had a mischievous look and looked at him and Liao Chengde frequently, obviously thinking of something.

  It is the so-called "strike first to be strong, and then to suffer disaster". Zhong Shi just took this opportunity to give that person a good lesson and let him know what it means to be tall and thick.

The young and Dangerous boy who was pointed by Zhong Shi's little finger was full of surprise, but then he realized that his previous actions must have been discovered. He was angry from the heart, and the evil turned to the guts. He grabbed an empty beer bottle and Slamming it on the table, smashing the beer bottle to pieces with a "bang", leaving only half of the sharp fragments on the hand, and cursed viciously: "Pu Jie, I lost your mother..."

  Liao Chengde was dumbfounded by all this, and when he realized it, he got up and prepared to run outside. At this time, he couldn't even care about Zhong Shi.

   Just as he took a step, he heard another "bang" from behind, and at the same time, the crowd around him cheered. Liao Chengde was very surprised, and saw several strong men picked up the stools under their feet and rushed forward like a swarm.

   "Hey, what's going on?"

  Liao Chengde, who came back to his senses, turned around and saw Zhong Shi with a smile that was not a smile. He couldn't help blushing, subconsciously avoided Zhong Shi's gaze, and looked at the previous table.

  I saw that young and Dangerous boy who was still vicious before was covering his head with an expression of disbelief, and blood was flowing down his fingers. And another young and Dangerous boy standing beside him was holding a half broken wine bottle, looking at him with a sneer on his face, thinking that the previous "bang" was the wine bottle in his hand hitting the former. issued from the head.

  The gangster who was severely injured on the head, at this moment, there was a flash of gold stars in front of him, and he kept cursing in his heart: "What is the second brother Guan, what is the loyalty, it's all **** nonsense..."

  Before he finished cursing, he saw fist shadows flying in front of him, and the sound of "bang bang" piercing his flesh was endless. At the beginning, he was able to block his vitals, and he couldn't stop yelling, but the more he did this, the more severely he was beaten, and it didn't take long before he could only lie on the ground and wail in pain.

   "Okay, let's stop now! If you continue to fight, I'm afraid he will be killed!"

  Zhong Shi accepted it when he saw it was good, and when he saw that everyone was almost done fighting, he stopped shouting, and at the same time, he took a proud look at Liao Chengde who was stunned by the side.

Following Zhong Shi's shout, most of the people stopped their hands and feet, only the two who were eating and drinking with that young and Dangerous boy before kicked the stomach of the humming man lying on the ground. Two feet, and then stopped cursing.

   "Everyone, don't think that I am deliberately bullying people. In fact, I have noticed this person a long time ago. He has been aiming at me and this gentleman. He must have bad intentions!"

  Zhong Shi pointed to the glamorous Liao Chengde, and said to the crowd who made the move without shame.

   "Yeah, just now this kid wanted to hijack this gentleman and rob him of all his money!"

   "That's right, that's what he discussed with me just now. Fortunately, although I'm a little poor, I also know that a gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way..."

  The two young and Dangerous boys who took the most ruthless shots were very clever, and immediately followed Zhong Shi's words.

  When everyone heard this, the guilt of beating someone innocently disappeared immediately, but an inexplicable sense of justice emerged spontaneously, and everyone straightened their backs, as if they had done a great good deed.

   "Everyone, come and get the money!"

Zhong Shi counted the number of people, and distributed the money in his hand to everyone evenly. When the two most ruthless people came in front of him, he specially gave a few hundred yuan more, which was regarded as a "rebellious boy" to them. rewards.

People who come out to hang around are like this, they keep talking about "loyalty" and "inserting knives for brothers". He hesitated to stab back.

  Zhong Shi did not expect that these two people were extremely "righteous", and more than 1,000 yuan allowed them to completely knock down their "brothers" to the ground. It seems that they are just the juniors in the society, or the little people who just came out to hang out, or they would not be so cheap.

  The people who ate at the food stall didn't expect that they could get a windfall with a few punches. They ordered a few more dishes that they were usually reluctant to order, and continued to eat and drink.

  The person lying on the side of the road continued to moan in pain, and no one came to check, as if there was no such person. And his two "companions" took the money and left happily.

"This…"

  Liao Chengde looked at the bustling food stalls, and then at the little gangster lying on the ground, his head still unable to react.

   "See, this is the privilege of the rich. Even if he calls the police now, I can settle it. There are so many witnesses here!"

  Zhong Shi sneered, and said indifferently. When he got off the stool, he suddenly saw a scene in the distance, and he couldn't help crying out in "surprise".

   "Hey, my little ancestor, don't you still want to cause trouble? Let's go quickly!"

  Liao Chengde was really a little scared. Seeing that Zhong Shi became curious again, he couldn't help pouring out bitter water. The experience of this night is probably even more exciting than his experience in the past year.

   "What's your surname, sir?"

  Zhong Shi ignored Liao Chengde, walked to a table at the outermost edge of the stall, sat down carelessly, and kept looking at the people opposite him.

   "At a young age, you learn to bully others. If it goes on for a long time, is that okay?"

  The person opposite snorted coldly and said disdainfully. In front of him was a bowl of the cheapest beef noodles and a bottle of cold beer.

  What caught Zhong Shi's attention was that this person had muscular body, straight hair, and his back was straight when he was sitting. He looked like someone who came out of the army.

  Almost all the people at the stall just now beat up the young and Dangerous boy, but he just took a look, then lowered his head to eat his bowl of noodles again.

   "Big circle?"

  Zhong Shi didn't mind his comments, instead he uttered such a word that frightened Hong Kong people.

"you…"

  A flash of anger flashed across the man's face, and he clenched his fists involuntarily, but after a while he thought of something, and then let go of his fists in despair, turned his head aside, and ignored Zhong Shi.

   "Can you drive? How about acting as a driver for my friend, five thousand Hong Kong dollars a month?"

  Zhong Shi ignored the surprise of Liao Chengde beside him, and offered the conditions of solicitation on his own. (Book friend allen_wxw’s comments are very exciting, and provided me with a meaningful reference for writing a book, thank you again. In addition, I hope other book friends can also speak enthusiastically)
