Hong Kong Comprehensive World Champion

Chapter 401 The Prologue of the Haojiang Storm

"Master Zhuang."

"Toast to you."

"Thank you for supporting the villagers."

Inside Lu's Ancestral Hall.

The leader of the lion team held a wine glass in both hands, and the eight members of the lion team stood in a row behind him, all holding a wine glass and smiling.

The leader of the Lions team bent down to toast and put the cup very low, while Sir Zhuang sat at the main table with a chuckle on his face, raised his glass and lightly clinked with him.

"Hey." The boss of the lion team quickly drank his wine glass in one gulp, and the rest of the lion team members also raised their glasses to drink. Sir Zhuang took a sip of wine, put down his glass and gave Ami a wink.

"You guys take these." Amei opened the white leather bag and took out a stack of 10,000 yuan red envelopes that had been prepared.

"Thank you, madam." The boss of the lion team didn't dare to look at A Mei at all, he quickly put away the red envelope and thanked him, and immediately the members of the lion team standing behind him also expressed their thanks: "Thank you, madam, thank you, Zhuang Ye."

Zhuang Shikai nodded, then continued to eat with chopsticks and chat with Lu Hantao. Amei smiled and waved to them, expressing that there is no need to thank them, and did not say anything more to them.

There is only one space for them to stand at the main table, and a group of people can only line up in a row. If Zhuang Shikai hadn't started admiring them today, they wouldn't even be qualified to be near the main table.

The lion dance is so good that you can get close to the nobleman!

But there are no other opportunities, and that's about it.

After the lion dance is over, the Lu's ancestral hall opens the water table. Those who can sit close to the ancestral hall are people of some status, or close relatives, and those who can sit on the main table are Lu Hantao, etc., and the village chiefs of various villages in the New Territories.

All of them held Sir Zhuang in their hands, and the others didn't even have the chance to come forward to toast. The lion dance team was already envied by everyone for being able to talk to Sir Zhuang.

The boss of the lion dance knows the rules of the world very well. After receiving the red envelope, he didn't say a word, and directly led the brothers away from the main table. Go back and sit down where they belong, and then share the red envelopes with the brothers.

There is a kind of wisdom in the world called self-knowledge.

Villagers do not necessarily know the law, but they often know the rules.

Know not to engage in unrealistic delusions.

"Brother Quan, Brother Fu, Yong Yu, let's go to Jingzhuang Sir for a drink too?" At this time, seven or eight big boys in the age of fifteen or sixteen were sitting on chairs at a table in the corner of the ancestral hall, and one of them had a naive appearance. The naive child raised his wine glass and shouted eagerly.

These children are all direct descendants of the Lu family. Among them are Lu Hantao's daughter and the children of Lu Hantao's brothers, named Lu Yongyu, Lu Yongfu, Lu Yongquan, etc...

They are all cousins, and they are also the sons of the next generation of the Lu family.

These youngsters are from good backgrounds, and their natural status is higher than that of many Lu family villagers. They don't need to go out to eat banquets, they can sit directly in the ancestral hall.

They have formed a small circle virtually.

Encouraged by Lu Jianbo, the boys all held their wine glasses and shouted, "Okay, okay!"

"Let's toast Master Zhuang."

"I heard that Mr. Zhuang was very powerful when he was young. He knocked down the eight streets of Causeway Bay with a baton! He is known as the leader of Causeway Bay! Much more powerful than the current leader Liangzi Nan!"

"Let's go ask him how he can play with sticks! Say hello and go back to school to blow water with your classmates!"

The boys talked more vigorously, and they stood up holding their wine glasses and yelling.

And their thinking is very detached, the main purpose is not to build a relationship with Mr. Zhuang, but to collect materials for blowing water among classmates.

At this time, Lu Jinqiang, who was the boss, sat on the seat, immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed Lu Jianbo's wrist, frowned and shouted to his younger brothers: "Don't go!"

Lu Jianbo and others looked back at the boss.

Lu Jinqiang said solemnly: "Don't hinder Uncle and Master Zhuang from chatting! Don't you look at who is sitting at the main table?"

"Be careful to be beaten by Uncle!"

Lu Jinqiang is the oldest and the most sensible. He is the big brother among the younger generation, he stretched out his hand to grab a few youngsters, and the youngsters dared not refuse at all. What's more, when they heard the word "Uncle", they were instantly scared.

So they all sat down and ate obediently in the end, Zhuang Sir didn't notice them at all, but they often peeked in Zhuang Sir's direction, their eyes full of longing.

Among them, a young boy who is not qualified to enter the ancestral hall is most yearning.

However, he knows how to lie on the gate of the ancestral hall and call "Yong Yu" to catch dragonflies.

This trick!

After Zhuang Shikai finished the banquet, he took A Mei and left the Lu family early without waiting for the banquet to end.

During the New Year, he didn't only go to one of Lu's villages, he also went to Kowloon and outlying islands. But the trip to the countryside only lasted until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. After the seventh day, he took a boat across the sea and went to live in Baodao temporarily.

In addition to being tender with "Rose", he also went to pay New Year's greetings to Luo Ge. The two of them got drunk at the Taipei villa, and each was escorted back to the room by a woman. It was another battle.

Mr. Zhuang cared about "TSMC" for a while, and learned that TSMC had no problems and had already invested in R\u0026D and production, so he didn't care too much.

The rest of the time is basically spent with Rose.

There is no way, since "Gose" found out that Amei was pregnant, her mind started to sprout, her two long legs wrapped around Zhuang Sir's waist every day, and she said "I want to..." in Zhuang Sir's ear.

She made it clear that she was unwilling to be left behind, and wanted to carry out the human-making movement!

the next day.

Morning.

Rose walked out of the kitchen with a breakfast and put it in the dining room of the Kenting villa.

Zhuang Shikai just washed up and walked downstairs in his nightgown.

When he sat at the dining table and picked up the fork, he immediately expressed surprise: "Are you going to be so exaggerated?"

"Give me oysters in the morning?"

Rose stood beside her with a glass of milk, winked and said with a wink, "I'll make you stronger..."

Zhuang Shikai picked up a few oysters and threw them into his mouth, laughing, "What do you mean?"

"But you actually baked oysters for me?"

"That was not what I meant……"

"I don't care what you mean! Go get me some more raw eggs!"

With a big wave of Zhuang Shikai's hand, Rose pursed her lips, turned around and went to fetch a few eggs, and helped Zhuang sir knock a straight cup to fill it.

"No! Here you are!" Rose handed the cup to Zhuang Shikai, Zhuang Shikai took the cup, raised his head, drank it in one gulp, and put the cup on the table.

Breakfast has been eaten by him.

He said with some resentment: "Why are you more fierce than me recently?"

"Did I miss you..." At this moment, the "first sister of the society", who is famous in both places, gently shook his arm coquettishly, Zhuang sir trembled all over, and hurriedly took the milk next to him to cover his face and drink it.

This woman is really "like a wolf like a tiger" at her age! If Zhuang Shikai hadn't improved his physical fitness, he really couldn't stand doing this!

However, Rose is indeed getting better at playing.

The charm is also more attractive.

At this time Zhuang Shikai put down the milk glass, Rose suddenly remembered something serious, and asked in a serious tone: "Shikai, I heard that the Macau government will release another gambling card recently..."

"You want to take down that gambling card?" Zhuang Shikai raised his eyebrows and asked.

The "gambling license" is the license to legally open casinos in Macau. Since the Macau government issued a tender, the requirements and amount of the tender are extremely huge, which involves many contacts and struggles between various forces.

After all, the "gambling industry" is the biggest piece of cake in Macau. As long as you get a "gambling card", you can share a piece of cake. But how big is the "gambling industry" on Hong Kong Island? How big is Macau's potential?

Sir Zhuang also became interested in this.

Rose nodded and said, "Yes!"

"My Zhenghang business in Baodao is not big, and my annual income is only tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars."

‘But gambling is different... Macau’s gambling industry is also a real business, and I will become one of the richest women in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan if I get this gambling card... It’s just that it’s a little difficult. "

"It's a rare opportunity, I plan to try."

Zhuang Shikai was lost in thought, nodded slightly and said: "Yes! I have some connections in Macau! Let Mr. He say hello first!"

"Whether he likes it or not, he will always give me face!"

"Come to me if you encounter any troubles, and I will help you solve them!"

Macau opened up the gambling industry in 1847, declaring that the gambling industry was legal, but it was named "gaming industry" in order to harvest the East Asian economy.

Of course, during this period, there were mutual benefits between the government and the Australian people, and many welfare policies were given to the Australian people.

However, at the beginning of the gambling industry, the management was chaotic, there was a lack of supervision of various large and small gambling stalls, and there were also problems with taxation. In short, there were "no rules".

Therefore, Macau began to implement a monopoly system for the gambling industry in the 1950s.

The government issues licenses to merchants through bidding, and only companies with licenses issued by the government can operate on behalf of the government.

This license is called a "gambling card".

In 1962, "Mr. Ho" in Macau was the first bidder to monopolize Macau's gambling industry.

At this time, Macau has also become a "gambling port"! The various gambling stalls and casinos in Macau are essentially subsidiaries of "Lisboa"! Because there is only one gambling card in Macau!

Then another license was issued in the 1970s. At present, there are two gambling licenses in Macau. In the 1980s, Macau finally issued a third gambling license!

Since "Rose" wants to play this gambling card, Mr. Zhuang will have a hand in it. At that time, it doesn't matter whether Mr. He and Mr. Ye want to give face or not! This face must be given!

This small island called "Macau" has another name - Haojiang!

A name that exists only in the coastal Chinese population.

"Thank you, husband." Rose smiled sweetly at the side, leaned forward and kissed Sir Zhuang on the cheek, and then stuck her whole body on Sir Zhuang's body. Zhuang sir wiped off his lipstick aggrievedly, looked at her and asked, "Again? Just woke up!"

"Waking up is the same as going to bed! Didn't you just eat?" Rose blinked and smiled.

...

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The police leave is over.

The taste of the year also gradually dissipated.

People are going to get down to business.

Some people have to work hard for their lives, some people have to weigh the pros and cons for politics, and some people have drawn their knives out of their sheaths and are ready to do big things.

Zhuang Shikai returned to Hong Kong Island, put on his suit and drove to work.

When he approached the Wan Chai Police Station, the police officers greeted him one after another.

"Morning Zhuang sir!"

"morning!"

"Good morning, sir."

Zhuang Shikai smiled and nodded all the way, took the elevator back to the office and sat down.

"Hey! The new year has begun!" He opened his arms and looked at the sunshine outside the window with a smile in his eyes.

At the same time, in the General Administration Building, Lu Minghua, Yang Jinrong, Zeng Xiangrong and others also returned to their offices, opened their chairs, and put away their briefcases.

Lu Minghua didn't even feel hot when he sat down, so he picked up the phone and called Yang Jinrong, saying, "Ah Rong, get ready to do something."

"Yes, sir!" Yang Jinrong put down the phone, raised his hand and raised his glasses, with determination in his eyes!
