Hong Kong Island Old Events

He Dingxian sat on a chair, opened the iron box, and sniffed the fragrance with the tip of his nose: "The best Tieguanyin!"

Ge Bai stood in front of him and praised vigorously: "Sir He is indeed a person who understands tea. He has a good eye."

"It says it on the lid."

He Dingxian closed the iron box and put it into the cabinet. He stood up with a smile and said, "Sir Ge, why did you come to the office to see me today?"

He invited Ge Bai to sit on the sofa, made a cup of hot tea, and bent down to place it in front of Ge Bai. Ge Bai did as the Romans did, tapped the table three times, kowtowed, drank tea again and sighed: "Why?" Sir, Sir Ifu invites you to see Yema in the evening."

"Are you interested?"

He Ding crossed his legs, lit a cigar, and agreed loudly: "Yes, I really like watching night horses, it's tense and exciting!"

"Let's go together tonight then."

Ge Bai laughed twice.

He Dingxian followed the usual rules and took out a small bag of money from the cabinet, put it in a yellow paper bag and handed it over: "Sir Ge"

"Eh!"

Ge Bai refused his money for the first time and shouted: "I haven't finished eating the specialties at home. Since I gave them last time, I won't use them this time."

"We are all friends."

Ge Bai stood up with a smile: "There are still some accounts to be settled in the Finance Department, so I'm leaving first."

He Dingxian was a little surprised, put away the money bag, and stood up quickly: "Sir Ge, I will give it to you."

"Need not."

"Need not."

Ge Bai turned around and left, which made He Dingxian feel a little uncomfortable. He turned to look at the tea table and muttered: "It's rude not to finish the tea."

In fact, the victory of the peninsula in one battle was not only good for the Chinese, but also good for Ge Bai and other ghosts who had interests in collusion with the Chinese.

night.

He Dingxian took a car to Happy Valley and led several team members to the door of a VIP box under the guidance of the waiter. Several British police officers wearing suits, sunglasses, and guns at their waists raised their hands to stop everyone. The waiter pushed open the door of the private room. Chief Yifu, who was standing inside, turned around and nodded slightly: "Why? Sir, please come in."

Several British police officers lowered their arms and stepped aside. While He Dingxian entered the box, Chen Zichao and others also stayed outside. If I remember correctly, it was also in this box that I met Sir Mai for the first time.

"Sir!"

He Dingxian entered the box, the large wooden door closed, he stood at attention, saluted, and shouted solemnly.

Ifu was wearing a suit with a smile on his face, waving his hand and saying: "You don't have to be so polite when you come out to play in private."

When He Dingxian put down his arm and nodded slightly, Ge Bai came forward to meet him at the right time and handed him a glass of red wine: "Sir He, let's look at the horses, taste the wine, and try the cigars."

"There is nothing interesting in Hong Kong Island, just relax."

Ge Bai patted He Dingxian on the shoulder and led him into the ghost group. In fact, there were only two officers, Ge Bai and Yifu, in the box. There was not a single extra police ghost guy. It seemed like a very private meeting. .

Several beautiful foreign girls in red dresses with wavy blond hair stood nearby, pouring wine, laughing, and providing services, including special services.

Among these foreign girls, there are Caucasians, Spaniards, and Mao girls who come to earn foreign exchange.

All of them are in top shape.

He Dingxian knew that Gui Lao knew how to play, so he immediately stepped forward to clink glasses: "Sir Yifu, which horse do you like today?"

Ifu held a cigar in his mouth and looked towards the racecourse, where the jockey was taking his place.

"I think No. 9 might win."

He Dingxian was well prepared and turned around and shouted loudly: "Ah Chao, win on the 9th tonight!"

"Sir, buy 100,000 Hong Kong dollars!"

Chen Zichao quickly replied: "Yes, sir."

Immediately, under Yi Fu's surprised eyes, the Chinese policeman turned and left, and Ge Bai was also amazed by He Dingxian's boldness. A gambling activity must be more difficult to operate in secret the further it goes, the more inspection methods it uses. At this stage, the Jockey Club is still very easy to conduct insider operations, provided that enough Hong Kong dollars are spent, which is several times more than the prize money of a horse race.

In order for future generations to control a horse race, they not only need to form a club and buy jockeys, but also bribe the Jockey Club Supervision Department and so on.

Due to the huge cost and no profit, almost no one bribes horse racing anymore.

Today, He Dingxian showed that he was well prepared and sincere in one sentence. Sometimes, you don’t need to give money to a certain person, you just need to spend your life for a certain person. That is also a kind of full sincerity. .

He Dingxian was not sure of Yi Fu's attitude. If he dared to carry the cash box into battle, he would certainly have to be more circuitous.

Hearing this, Yi Fu raised his eyebrows and widened his eyes, seeming to admire him very much. He pointed at the foreign girls next to him and said, "If you can win, all the horses here will belong to you."

Several foreign girls were indifferent and just glanced at He Dingxian, seemingly not taking him seriously.

This calm and natural attitude makes the foreign girl look delicate instead of showing off, just like an exquisite model placed in the window. There is nothing to be shy about.

"Thank you, sir!"

He Dingxian glanced at the five foreign girls and opened his mouth to thank them.

Ifu looked very satisfied, picked up his cigar, and continued to look at the arena.

Ge Bai stepped forward, put his arm on his shoulder, and whispered: "Sir He, come on tonight!"

Ge Bai saw He Dingxian looking at him sideways, with a puzzled look on his face, and explained: "The horses given by Sir Yi Fu are all meant to be ridden. Last time, a chief inspector took three horses. If they didn't ride enough, he added two more horses." It was whipped. Later, Sir Ifu asked about the slave horses and found out that one of them was not riding, and the superintendent title on the chief inspector's shoulder flew away!"

He Dingxian chuckled: "It doesn't matter."

Seeing He Dingxian's confident look, Ge Bai secretly admired him, but he didn't know that Sir He had recently opened a pharmacy.

"Number nine hits the mark."

Ifu saw the results of this horse racing and smiled slightly. He was not too surprised. In fact, No. 9 itself was a big favorite. The upset at the racecourse was for new horses or horses that were recovering from injuries. There were very few old horses. An upset.

The data on jockeys and horses is very transparent.

What's more, there will be no new horses or injured horses coming back in the night race.

He turned back and raised his glass gently to He Dingxian: "Remember to take away the horse I gave you. I don't like to owe anyone favors."

"Thank you, sir."

He Dingxian and Ge Bai followed the superior and sat down on the sofa. After watching the horse racing, Yi Fu seemed to be in a good mood, so without any detours, he took out a business card from the inner pocket of his suit and handed it over: "Call me if you need anything." Give me."

"Thank you, sir!" He Dingxian took the business card and felt happy.

Ifu put down his wine glass, looked at him and said, "I heard that you want to stay in the crime team?"

He Dingxian no longer concealed it and said bluntly: "I hope to serve more for the police force."

"Um."

Yifu was noncommittal. In theory, there is no term of office in the Crime Unit. You can work in one position until you are old. However, due to the special times, each position is worth a sum of money. The police force is mobilized frequently. Detective Hua is once every three to five years. The maximum number of years to replace the chief detective is three years, and the head of the serious crime team is a newly established department last year. The current position of the team leader only lasts for the second year.

There is a unified consensus within the top brass of the police force that the current term is every two years, and that the position should be replaced after two years.

High turnover, high profits.

"I will try my best to mediate for you and buy you one more year."

Yifu didn't say anything: "Of course, I only have the power to make suggestions. Whether it can succeed depends on Sir Mai's opinion."

He would not argue with his immediate boss over the position of head of the serious case team, because the interests of his immediate boss are more consistent with his.

He Dingxian hurriedly expressed joy: "Sir Yifu, on behalf of the Chinese people in the police force, I would like to thank you. The Chinese police will definitely support you with all their strength in the future!"

Yifu frowned slightly, with a very high level of political awareness: "I am working for the Hong Kong government and Sir Mai."

But He Dingxian did not respond. If the Chinese do not separate the ghosts into human bodies and look at them as a whole, how can they win strong support in politics?

"I also value your ability. The serious crime team you lead is very effective in handling cases and has repeatedly solved major cases. If you are a mediocre person, why should you be the team leader?" After Yifu finished speaking, the three of them raised their glasses and clinked their glasses. At the same time, Chen Zichao He put a box of Hong Kong dollars in the corner and said, "Sir, the bonus has been cashed out."

"Um."

Ifu nodded slightly.

Tonight, He Dingxian did not go home, but stayed directly at the VIP hotel of the Jockey Club. It is always better to train horses at the racecourse, let alone train five horses at one time.

One of the horses is really fierce and will deliberately provoke the jockey. If He Dingxian hadn't been strong, young and energetic, he might not have been able to subdue him!

The end of the month.

Ruihetang.

The Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce held a general meeting, and more than 300 Chaoshan members from Hong Kong attended the venue. The venue was located in Ruihe Hall. There were teahouses for five people, large and small, scattered throughout the front courtyard, middle courtyard, and second-story attic. .

Long gowns, suits, and Western-style dresses, all dressed up in different styles, with different temperaments, for both men and women.

The usually spacious and quiet clubhouse was packed to the brim with everyone. The members were generally between thirty and fifty years old, and they were all considered to be in their prime of life. There were fewer young people in their twenties, but there were still a few that could be seen in the crowd. .

Ruihe Hall only loses its tranquility during chamber of commerce meetings and turns into a bustling guild hall, more like a clan ancestral hall where wedding banquets are held.

Chu Weinan, Wang Laoji, Zhou Zhiyuan and other senior officials of the Chamber of Commerce were sitting on the Grand Master's chair in the middle hall. In addition to the president and two vice-presidents, there were 21 directors in the chamber of commerce, divided into two rows on the left and right, and all of them were famous. Chaoshan Big Boss.

"Boom!"

As the gong rang, Wang Laoji stood up and said: "Dear fellow villagers and members, today's chamber of commerce meeting is all due to come. Those who are absent due to something else will abstain from voting according to the rules."

"Today's first topic, the Chamber of Commerce has decided to add an additional director seat and nominate Mr. He Dingxian, the inspector of the Police Major Crime Unit, the boss of Oriental Group. Mr. He Dingxian was recommended by Mr. Wang Laoji, Mr. Chu Weinan, and Mr. Xu Aizhou. The board of directors Vote in favor first, and if members have any objections, a vote against it can be held.”

Wong Laoji sat back on the Grand Master's chair and handed over the work time to He Dingxian. He Dingxian, wearing a brown gown, walked from under the pillar to the stage, with a sincere expression and clasped his fists in his hands: "I want to do more for my brothers from the same hometown, and I hope that all the senior uncles will support me." .”
