Hong Kong Island Old Events

Jiang Tianyang said in a deep voice: "He Sheng, Xu Tianbao's lair has been found, but we have to try our luck to catch him."

"He rarely appears in his hometown?" He Dingxian asked aloud.

Jiang Tianyang said: "In addition to being reunited with his family during the holidays, he usually leads bandits to commit crimes on the island. Moreover, he has a wife with six wives. Using his wife and children as hostages is probably very ineffective. But he robbed a batch of white powder and went back , and I know all the white powder dealers in Nanyang, so as long as he wants to sell goods, I will definitely receive the news."

He Dingxian nodded: "Then we have to change the method? It is best to catch Xu Tianbao on the shore and leave the Tianbao thieves leaderless, otherwise the water village will not be so easy to fight."

Jiang Tianyang knew it well: "I know, why is this happening?"

"Do you have time to come to Hong Kong Island for a cup of tea?" He Dingxian asked: "We will have drinks at Chaofu Restaurant next week and invited many brothers. You haven't come back to visit your family in Nanyang for a long time, right?"

Jiang Tianyang's heart was throbbing, but he still suppressed his thoughts and said aloud: "He Sheng, after the affairs in Nanyang are finished, I will go back and have a good rest for a few days. The actions of the Tianbao thieves are secretive. Once the monitoring is relaxed, the opportunity will probably come. Sneaked away from my hands."

He Dingxian was greatly impressed by Jiang Tianyang's quality. It seemed that the Jiang brothers were the real dragon and tiger brothers and had the potential to do great things.

He immediately laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha, okay, when you come back from Nanyang, I will pick up the wind and wash away the dust for you. Please be happy and happy."

"Thank you He Sheng."

Jiang Tianyang hung up the phone.

Eight days later.

Chao Fu Restaurant.

He Dingxian was wearing a white gown and hair wax. He was dressed very energetically. He stood at the door of the restaurant and welcomed the guests: "Brother Tai, welcome!"

"Axian."

"congratulations."

Huo Guantai was wearing a suit and smiling.

He Dingxian smiled and led him into the hall: "Brother Tai, find a seat and sit wherever you like."

Huo Guantai strode to the main table with his head held high, asked his subordinates to take out a wooden box, opened the wooden box to reveal a longevity lock, and said to Chu Yunnan who was guarding the child: "Miss Chu, the baby is very cute. Be careful and wish your baby always good health and a happy life."

Chu Yunnan was wearing a red dress, a ponytail, and light makeup. She smiled and said, "Thank you Huo Sheng."

"Xiao Beibi!"

Huo Guantai's face was full of love, and he gently touched the tip of the child's nose with his finger. After teasing the child like a bad uncle, he greeted Chu Weinan, Wang Laoji, Xu Aizhou and others with a smile, and came to the left side. A table to sit and drink tea.

At the same table were Qiu Degeng, Zou Huaiwen, Zheng Yutong, Bao Yugang and others.

Today is He Jianhua’s 100-day banquet.

But the protagonists of children's banquets are often adults. No matter how much gift money is received, the children will never be seen in the future. At this time, He Jianhua was sleeping soundly in the nurse's arms, while a helper came forward to collect the gifts from Huo Sheng and placed them on a round table covered with red cloth in the hall.

At this time, dozens of gifts, large and small, were already placed on the round table, mainly gold locks and gold medals, especially a horse racing horse, which was the most valuable and worth more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. It was named "Peace and Health" and will be available starting tomorrow. , as long as one more jockey is hired, he can participate in the competition, and He Jianhua will become the youngest "horse owner" in Hong Kong. It has to be said that the horse's age of 100 days is considered a record.

It's a pity that the horse was not brought to the scene. It was just a horse certificate in the red envelope.

As for gold locks, gold medals and other items, the market value is around 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, and many of them cost more than 100,000 yuan. Most of them were given by seniors of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce and business partners of the He family. There is no need for these people to give too expensive gifts, but using wooden boxes and other objects to hold gold jewelry is an unspoken rule at banquets.

Because this can avoid weighing the gold jewelry and take care of other guests' faces. After all, gold has excellent malleability. A dozen grams can be used to make a large gold medal. Who knew it was hollow and solid inside?

Lardboy sat on a table on the right side of the hall, holding a writing brush and writing down the gifts and red envelope amounts given by the guests one by one. He also chose whether to roll call according to the guests' own requirements. Sometimes the roll call is a sign of respect for the guests, and sometimes it is rude and the only thing to focus on is the feelings of the guests.

In addition to He Dingxian's colleagues and brothers, there were also friends and relatives of Chu Yunnan and Chu Weinan at today's banquet.

"Sir."

When He Dingxian saw the officer arriving, he warmly greeted him, held his hand, and gave him a big hug.

Jian Baoning smiled and said: "Sir, congratulations. As a member of the police force, I have nothing to give. Apart from a red envelope, I can only give you a permanent residence permit from the Commonwealth. I know you don't need this." Planting things, but it will be much more convenient for children to study in the Federation and travel.”

Nowadays, the British Commonwealth has very strict conditions for Chinese permanent residence, and a green card is worth a lot of money.

He Dingxian knew that it was really inconvenient for Jian Baoning to give a big gift, so he was very thoughtful about using a green card as a gift, so he immediately said: "Thank you, Sir Jian, for taking the trouble."

"Haha, a little thought." Jian Baoning saw a few more cars parked on the street, and said with a smile: "You entertain the guests first, there is no need to talk to me more."

"Haibo, please come in sir."

The steward of the Chu Mansion immediately stepped forward and said calmly: "Sir Jian, please come with me."

"Um."

Jian Baoning nodded slightly, and then led by Haibo to the first guest seat on the left, which was the guest of honor table of the police force. It could be said that he was treated with great courtesy. His identity has also attracted the attention of many chamber of commerce bosses, and it is inevitable that someone will come up to him later to toast him and establish friendship.

With He Dingxian's current status in the world, hosting a centenary banquet for the eldest son of the eldest son is destined to be a sensational event. Although the news was not reported in the newspapers, the police, Chinese bosses, and bigwigs all heard about it.

Some people even judge a person's status in the world based on whether he can participate or his seating arrangement.

Later, Yi Fu, Ge Bai, Gordon, Kun Xian and other police officers arrived one after another. The gifts given by these people are valuable, but not too excessive. As public officials, they still need to pay attention to their impact on all walks of life.

Naturally, these ghost bosses sat at the same table and began to exchange feelings again. During this period, Xinji, Yiqun, Chao Yiyong, and Heji came to sit down, but the Jianghu boss only deserved to sit on the right side on this occasion. The first seat.

Sadly, there was only one table set up for them, not even one more.

In other words, no matter how good the club boss is, his position is fixed, and only those with enough strength are qualified to come.

It is impossible to add a table!

This is enough to prove the low status of Jianghu society, but in front of all the big bosses and superiors, how can it be regarded as harsh treatment for Jianghu people to have a place? The big guys exchanged greetings with each other, but they didn't dare to leave the wine table easily. They thought they were self-aware.

In order to be able to entertain guests well, Sir He not only booked the entire restaurant and made the furnishings, but also specially invited a top Western food team and many chefs from Hong Kong Island. The ingredients were airlifted from Australia, as well as fresh products delivered from the pier in the morning. , it cost more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars alone. It was really grand.

Every table and every position is unique.

It’s not just a matter of adding.

He doesn't care, the guests will care...and this time the child's 100-day banquet is going to be low-key or simple! Because he has not formally hosted a banquet for the interest groups around him for a long time, and the situation has changed too much in the past two years. He needs a formal banquet to allow friends from all sides to meet and show his political power, which can greatly promote Unity. Moreover, I have to participate in the election for the Chamber of Commerce recently, and I need to show off my appearance and flex my muscles.

This is a banquet with political significance. The child's 100 days is nothing more than a reason. The focus of everyone's attention is not the child. Because children have no face, only adults have face!

At this time, an unexpected figure appeared at the door of the restaurant, handed him a red envelope, and said: "He Sheng, the scene is so lively. All the Chinese elites in Hong Kong are already in the restaurant, right? Can you take me with you later?" Let’s have a good meeting.”

"Mr. Lin."

He Dingxian held Lin Youfu's hand, patted his shoulder, and said excitedly: "I didn't expect you to take the time to visit Hong Kong Island. Thank you very much."

"Originally, Chairman Ma wanted to come in person, but some things had to do with him, so he had to entrust me to come and congratulate him." Lin Youfu said: "I represent the entire Nanyang Chinese Labor Front compatriots to congratulate Sir Ho on his happy event."

"Thank you so much."

He Dingxian said: "Next time I will go to Nanyang and have a drink with Lin Sheng and Chairman Ma."

"It's agreed!" Lin Youfu pushed up his glasses, leaned to his ear, and suddenly said: "He Sheng, the Red Flag Gang has contacted you. Just give me a call when you need it."

"Thank you!" He Dingxian thanked him very solemnly. He let go of his hand and asked Haibo to bring it to the table himself. The appearance of Lin Youfu immediately attracted the attention of many chamber of commerce bosses, such as Fang Suquan, Chu Weinan, Li Guanchun, Luo Wenjin and others. However, they knew Nanyang politicians very well. Several of them looked at each other and their expressions changed slightly. It seemed that The Guangfu Chamber of Commerce, Wuyi Chamber of Commerce, and Dongguan Chamber of Commerce still have some biases in their understanding of Sir He.

"Brother Xian!"

Lei Luo was wearing a suit and tie, holding his wife Axia on his arm. He looked very handsome.

I saw him striding to the door of the restaurant, raising his hand and saying hello: "I brought a small gift to Ah Hua. I wish my little nephew good luck, wealth, peace and health!"

He Dingxian saw four plainclothes agents following him. Each agent was holding a corner, and above it was a large glass cabinet. In the cabinet was a large golden pig that was one foot high and three feet long.

"Arluo, are you so exaggerated? Get such a big golden pig to make roast suckling pig?" He Dingxian looked at the golden pig and felt that it was one to one size with the small suckling pig, but Lei Luo waved his hand. He said proudly: "Just a little bit of care, don't be polite."

"Is it solid?" Sir He hit Sir Lei on the shoulder, but Lei Luo avoided talking and said with a smile: "Customized!"

Lardboy had the big golden pig moved into the restaurant, which immediately attracted the attention of many guests, many of whom were secretly stunned. You can tell by the size and quality of this pig that it is worth more than one million Hong Kong dollars. If it were any less, the golden pig would have shrunk.

At the same time, Lardboy wrote the gift list with a pen, and called out at the right time: "Mr. Lei Long, Chief Inspector of Kowloon District, I will give you a big golden pig. I wish Master He good luck, peace and joy!"

door.

He Dingxian lowered his voice and said to Lei Luo privately: "A Luo, what are you doing? Send such a valuable thing. What will happen to the brothers from other police forces later?"

Lei Luo said: "Because you are a brother in the police force, you have to give more expensive gifts. After you were promoted to superintendent, you helped your brother get promoted and transferred, but you never held a banquet to collect money. How can you brothers feel at ease? Today I have been restrained. We'll see later, those people are eager to move all the banks here to give it to you."

He Dingxian knew that the exaggerated comparison between the Chinese police forces was about to begin.

Can't even stop it!

"Take Ah Xia in and sit down, and Hai Bo will arrange a seat for you." He Dingxian knew that with the Chinese customs and traditions in the police force, he asked his subordinates not to give him money, for example, to let him jump into the sea. In this banquet where there is no competition for interests, the farther the relationship is, the more the person wants to build a relationship, the more expensive the gift will be.

Just as Lei Luo left, Qian Weishan walked in with a big golden Buddha in his arms, swaggering and confidently.
