"Yes, yes, Jun, you are right. How can someone like the Governor of Hong Kong, such an upper-class person, come to Caesar Nightclub, where we short mules stay!"

After listening to Li Jun's words, Jiu Wenlong was also very sensible, and repeated all the words that the upper-class people said before that looked down on them.

"No, this place is also very good!"

Peng Jiakang tried to search for a few words from his stomach.

"Everyone is equal, what short mules, gangsters, upper-class people, aren't they all Hong Kong Island citizens!"

"Why are you so careful? Besides, although I am the Governor of Hong Kong, I am also a part of Hong Kong Island. I have to experience the life of Hong Kong Islanders!"

"Shi Kang, McCree, don't you agree?"

Peng Jiakang's words made Li Jun, Jiu Wenlong and others hold back their laughter.

Yesterday you ignored me, today I am out of your reach.

"Governor, what you said is really great!"

Jiu Wenlong said while clapping his hands.

"Then you must come here often in the future, and come here often to experience the feeling of being a citizen of Hong Kong Island!"

"How about coming here once a week?"

Hearing this, Peng Jiakang's face immediately fell.

Li Jun patted Peng Jiakang on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, okay, A'long, don't joke with the Governor. The Governor is so busy, it's good to come here once a month!"

"Yes, yes, come here once a month!"

"Governor, it's good that you have this intention. When you come here, you can see that these guests dare not have fun!"

After Li Jun finished speaking, Peng Jiakang breathed a sigh of relief. If he really came here once a month, he would really go crazy.

"Along, find a box, let's entertain the Governor and his men!"

"Yes!"

While Jiu Wenlong was leading a few people to the presidential box, Peng Jiakang handed Li Jun a beautifully carved wooden box that he had been holding for a long time.

"Mr. Li, this is the 1945 Romanee-Conti I promised to bring you!"

"Thank you, Governor! We'll try it later."

Li Jun took a look and handed it to Ah Hua next to him.

"Ah Hua, have someone open the wine to sober you up!"

"And prepare some side dishes to go with the wine!"

Now that everything should be dried, as the host, I still have to show the proper etiquette.

"By the way, Governor, Mr. Governor, and Commissioner of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, is there anything you can't eat?"

"No, it's all right!"

After the group entered the box and sat down, Li Jun asked Jiu Wenlong to prepare the food.

But after Li Jun said this, he just lay down on the sofa and sat casually, without any intention of speaking.

This made Peng Jiakang and the other two, who were sitting upright with their backs straight, very anxious.

After a long time, Peng Jiakang finally couldn't help it and signaled to McCree with his eyes.

McCree understood and took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Li Jun.

"Mr. Li, this is a list of names we arrested Li Peicai and Guo Yongnian today. Please take a look."

Li Jun glanced at it with the corner of his eye and handed him the document.

"Mr. McCree, this is not good. Isn't it often said that ICAC is not convenient to disclose the case?"

"You can show me your internal ICAC documents directly, and it won't violate any confidentiality regulations, and then arrest me!"

"Mr. Li, don't joke, we ICAC can arrest anyone in the whole Hong Kong Island, but we can't arrest you!"

McCree responded with a smile on his face, but Li Jun pointed at Peng Jiakang and said.

"You said that you ICAC can arrest anyone? Then can you arrest the Governor?"

Peng Jiakang's face turned pale instantly, but he didn't dare to get angry. McCree just felt that he was in a difficult situation. Now he was the one who was humble and could not afford to offend anyone on both sides.

"I can't arrest the Governor of Hong Kong either. I am the Commissioner of the Independent Commission Against Corruption appointed by the Governor of Hong Kong. The Governor of Hong Kong is my superior, and I still rely on him for this position!"

"Then Mr. McCree, let me ask you, what if the Governor of Hong Kong embezzles?"

"This!"

McRee was speechless and looked at Peng Jiakang for help. Peng Jiakang also gave him a look in return, and understood it himself!

"I'm afraid only the Eagle Country Parliament is qualified!"

"Oh! But I think our Governor of Hong Kong must be fair and honest, right!"

After Li Jun finished speaking, he looked at Peng Jiakang. Peng Jiakang also stared at Li Jun. He really wanted to know what Li Jun was selling in his gourd now.

"Um, Mr. Li, just say whatever you want to say!"

Peng Jiakang tried to hold back the anger he had been holding back.Furious, he spoke directly.

"Governor, I like people like you!"

"Since you said so, I will speak directly!"

"I want you to appoint 10 seats in the Legislative Council!"

"Mr. Li, it's not that I agree, but I really can't do so much!"

Peng Jiakang continued after speaking.

"Although I have 22 appointments, some of them are candidates designated by the Eagle Country Parliament, and I can only decide on 5 of them!"

There are 57 members in the Legislative Council of Hong Kong Island.

The remaining 10 people are elected by the electoral college composed of all district councilors in each district. There are only these 10 Chinese members, and the others are all foreigners!

"If you really want a seat in the Legislative Council, I can give you these 5 seats directly!"

Li Jun kept shaking his head after hearing this.

"NO, NO, NO, Your Excellency the Governor, you are underestimating me, aren't you?"

"With 5 seats, what can the Legislative Council do?"

"I need at least 10 seats, and Your Excellency the Governor, you should know that I am not discussing this with you, you understand what I mean, right?"

Peng Jiakang thought quickly, 10 seats, half of the votes in the Legislative Council are 29 votes, so he still has 11 official members, 12 appointed seats, and 6 Chinese members!

"There are also the three bureaus and thirteen departments of Hong Kong Island, the Secretary for Security, and the Secretary for Justice!"

"Li Jun, your appetite is too big!"

Before Li Jun finished speaking, Peng Jiakang finally couldn't help it, and stood up directly, almost pointing at Li Jun's nose and scolding.

"As you Chinese say, greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant! Can you eat so much?"

"Mr. Governor, don't bother with that. As long as you give it to me, it's none of your business whether I can eat it or not!"

"Also, Peng Jiakang, watch your tone!"

"I can sit here and talk to you now. Remember, I gave it to you. It's the opportunity I provided to you!"

"It's me who doesn't want you, the Governor, to leave Hong Kong Island so soon!"

"It's me who wants to get the most benefit from you!"

"Do you understand what I mean?"

After listening to Li Jun's words, Peng Jiakang sat down limply.

How could he not understand what Li Jun said? Didn't he just think he was a good chess piece?

But he didn't have the courage, and didn't want to go back to Eagle Country so soon.

In short, he was controlled by Li Jun.

"Li Jun, I really can't give you so much."

"If you still want me to stay in Hong Kong Island for a longer time, you should know that I, the Governor of Hong Kong, am also the product of compromise among various factions in the Eagle Country Parliament!"

"I also have to take care of those behind me, such as Miss Christina and others, and I have to keep the seats they designated as members!"

"And the Security Bureau can give it to you, but the Department of Justice can't. This is related to a secret decision of the Eagle Country Parliament!"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you this!"

"I can only tell you that even I can't interfere with the Department of Justice!"

Without Peng Jiakang saying it, Li Jun knew it very well in his heart...

This is the Eagle's way to rule Hong Kong Island, and the Department of Justice is a fig leaf that can make the rules of Hong Kong Island, so it naturally cannot be easily given up.

And all practitioners of the Department of Justice, whether they are foreigners or Chinese, must have a professional qualification certificate issued by the Eagle Country and be approved by the Eagle Country.

In this way, the Eagle Country can firmly control the Department of Justice, the rule-making body of Hong Kong Island.

"At the same time, 8 seats for Legislative Council members is really my upper limit!"

After listening to this, Li Jun quickly calculated in his mind. Peng Jiakang has 8 appointments, plus 10 elected seats, which is 18 seats.

Add one official seat of the Security Bureau, that's 19 seats.

And controlling the Legislative Council requires at least half of the votes, that's 29 votes, 10 votes short.

Peng Jiakang, the Speaker of the Legislative Council, can count one vote for me, but there are still 9 votes short!

The foreigners can still firmly control the Legislative Council.

"No, Peng Jiakang, it's too few. Let's put it this way, I need you to give me 19 votes, that's 19 people!"

After Li Jun finished speaking, Peng Jiakang and others immediately knew that Li Jun wanted to control the Legislative Council.

"And my original idea was to take the 22 appointments in your hands!"

As Peng Jiakang said, these people were also assigned to different positions by the people of the Eagle Country Parliament.

And Peng Jiakang was just a puppet.

That’s right, in front of those people, PengA person of Jiakang's level can only be a puppet.

"Mr. Li, it's not that I don't want to, but I really can't do it!"

"If you really want to control the Legislative Council, I sincerely suggest you start with the Eagle Country Parliament, Miss Christina!"

"As long as you deal with her, half of the votes in the Hong Kong Island Legislative Council will be yours immediately!"

Li Jun knew that Peng Jiakang was telling the truth.

The root cause of Hong Kong Island's problems still lies in the Eagle Country Parliament.

Otherwise, just starting from Hong Kong Island is just playing house, and there is no way to really get the power center.

It seems that his overseas pace needs to be accelerated.

"By the way, Commissioner McCree, let me see the document you just mentioned!"

Li Jun stopped worrying about the Legislative Council issue and looked at McCree.

McCree immediately handed the document to Li Jun, and Li Jun opened it and took a few glances.
