Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

Several members of the Sakuragi family looked at the TV in amazement and saw that the news of the awarding of the Tokyo Honorary Citizen Certificate was being replayed on TV.

As the Commissioner of Police from Hong Kong, he participated in the reform of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. He not only helped to form the "Flying Tigers", but also helped Tokyo to fight against evil forces. In particular, the special operation of "sweeping away evil" held under the advocacy of the other party was even more fruitful, allowing Tokyo citizens to feel the huge changes and enhancing social security and stability.

In view of these achievements, the Commissioner of Police from Hong Kong, China was awarded the title of "Honorary Citizen" by the Tokyo high-level officials.

At this time, the young Commissioner of Police was in high spirits, waving his arms and enthusiastically, and warm applause rang out from time to time.

The Sakuragi family watched the TV carefully, and when they saw that the young man who spoke passionately was Du Yongxiao, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.

"Ahem, how is this possible?"

"Did I see it wrong?"

Several people rubbed their eyes hard, fearing that they had seen it wrong, and then turned their heads to look at Du Yongxiao a few more times, but still couldn't believe that this was the same person.

In fact, it is no wonder that they have doubts. Du Yongxiao on TV is dressed in a suit and is full of vigor. A group of people are surrounding him like a star, and even the mayor of Tokyo is cheering for him.

At this time, Du Yongxiao is wearing ordinary casual clothes, chewing stir-fried broad beans in his mouth. He does not look solemn or rigorous at all. No matter how you look at it, you can't overlap the image of two people, but if you look closely, it seems that they are really the same person.

When everyone was talking, Sakuragi Rin went into the kitchen to wash fruits and didn't pay attention to what was being said here.

At this time, she came out with a fruit plate and said with a smile: "Everyone, have some fruit, these Fuji apples are very fresh!" Before she finished speaking, she felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and asked curiously: "Hey, what's wrong with everyone?"

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly and nodded at the TV. Sakuragi Rin looked over and happened to see Du Yongxiao giving a speech on TV. She remembered that everyone had questioned Du Yongxiao's identity just now, and she was afraid that everyone believed it now.

Sure enough, the uncle and aunt looked at the TV with changing expressions on their faces, and their mood was ups and downs. They felt dizzy and felt like riding a roller coaster.

They never thought that the young man they looked down on just now was actually a senior official in Hong Kong! Even the mayor of Tokyo was beating drums to cheer him on, which showed that the other party was quite capable!

So they hissed, gasped, and looked at Du Yongxiao with awe.

Sakuragi Rin took everything in and felt angry and funny, but what he felt more proud was that.

Sakuragi Rin's father and mother were in different moods at the moment.

Sakuragi Rin's mother liked Du Yongxiao very much from the beginning. Not only did she think Du Yongxiao was handsome, but he also had a good temperament. He was not as frivolous as other young people, and he seemed very stable and generous. Now that she found out that Du Yongxiao's true identity was not an ordinary person, but a senior official in the Hong Kong government, she was even happier, and even couldn't close her mouth with joy. She looked at Du Yongxiao with a doting look, like a mother-in-law who liked her son-in-law more and more.

Father Sakuragi felt complicated.

From the beginning, he looked down on Du Yongxiao, thinking that he was Chinese. He was very reluctant to let his daughter marry far away in the future.

In addition, he felt that Du Yongxiao was bragging. He was so young and could easily become the head of the police force!

He was not very old, but he was bragging!

But now---

The facts proved that Du Yongxiao was not bragging. On the contrary, what he said was true.

The father felt that his head was hit by an iron pillar, buzzing, and he felt a little suffocated for a while. When he looked at Du Yongxiao, he looked at a monster.

Sakuragi Rin bowed and put down the fruit plate, then knelt down at the table next to Du Yongxiao, picked up an apple and peeled it with a fruit knife, and smiled: "Brother Du, this is our sweet apple from Mount Fuji, full of water, and the fruit is nectar. You must try it!"

According to the traditional rules here, men are superior to women, especially daughters. When people eat fruits, they should first give them to their parents or uncles and aunts, but Sakuragi Rin gave them to Du Yongxiao first.

Du Yongxiao didn't think too much and took it directly in front of everyone.

The four old men looked at him, but they didn't think there was anything wrong. Who made them shocked by Du Yongxiao's identity just now? No matter where they are, the official family is always the most important, and parents have to stand aside.

Then, Sakuragi Rin distributed the fruit to his uncle and aunt.

When Sakuragi Rin's aunt took the apple, she took the opportunity to ask Sakuragi Rin in a low voice; "Alin, is he really the police chief on TV?"

Seeing Sakuragi Rin nod, the aunt was stunned and didn't even know that the apple in her hand had fallen. After a long while, she came back to her senses, stood up in a panic, and said to Du Yongxiao stiffly: "Du, Director Du, I was offensive to that just now-——"

She bowed directly to Du Yongxiao: "Private Marseille! Please forgive me!" As she spoke, she hurriedly pulled at her uncle's clothes.

The uncle understood and stood up and bowed: "Private Masai, I was offended just now!"

The Japanese are very particular about etiquette. Regardless of whether it is true or not, this attitude makes Du Yongxiao very satisfied.

Besides, the other party is Sakuragi Rin's relative, Du Yongxiao can't hold it back, so he stood up and said: "You two must not say that, you are elders, please sit down quickly-——"

The uncle and aunt sat down nervously, looked at Sakuragi Rin's parents, sat down again and bowed to apologize: "Sorry, we looked down on you, and didn't expect that A Lin already has such an excellent boyfriend!"

The father and mother looked at the two people who were arrogant just now and actually bowed their heads to admit their mistakes. They couldn't help but feel very satisfied and looked proud.

Especially the old man, who was full of confidence at this moment, said arrogantly: "No need to apologize, we are all family! But just now you seemed to say that our family has lost face for the Sakuragi family..."

"Ahem, no! That's nonsense!" The uncle said hurriedly, reaching out to pour tea for the old man: "You also know that I have a foul mouth and sometimes speak without thinking! Now, if A Lin and Mr. Du really become a family, our Sakuragi family may have to rely on you in the future!"

"Yes! Yes! There are not many officials in our ancestors! Even being an official in Hong Kong is impressive!" The aunt said, "Now it depends on whether our Sakuragi family can have good luck in the future! Hahaha!"

It's rare for the uncle and aunt to think so. The chief of police is equivalent to the head of the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department. This position is very powerful. The two feel that Sakuragi Rin can marry Du Yongxiao, which is a great blessing for the Sakuragi family.

The old man was overjoyed when he heard this. He coughed and said, "Don't say that! My daughter is not very knowledgeable, and I don't know if Mr. Du likes her?" After that, he turned his head and looked at Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "That's not right."

"Well, why not?" The old man was stunned, thinking that Du Yongxiao didn't want to.

"Alin is so beautiful and has many suitors around her, so it should be whether Alin agrees to be with me, not whether I am willing to accept her!"

"Ah, so that's the case! Hahaha!" The old man was happy and thought that this young man was not bad. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. He also spoke nicely.

Seeing Du Yongxiao defending his daughter like this, Sakuragi Rin's mother couldn't close her mouth with laughter. This is really a blessing. How can there be such a son-in-law of a high-ranking official? That's the second thing, especially the attitude of others to the old couple, respectful as if it were his own son. It seems that he must love Sakuragi Rin very much.

Sakuragi Rin's mother has always doted on her daughter. She used to worry about her daughter's work and marriage, but she didn't expect that now she has found such a good partner. Thinking about it, she wiped away tears.

"Oh, by the way, Xiao gave us a gift yesterday. Old man, why don't we take it out and show it to uncle and others?" The mother rarely showed off and encouraged the father.

Sakuragi's father actually wanted to show off, but on the surface he said: "That's not necessary! That's the child's heart. Whether it's good or bad, we should accept it sincerely!"

"Just take it out and let them see it. They want to see it too, right?" The mother turned her face to look at the uncle and aunt.

The two looked at each other and thought, if you want to show off, just show off. Why ask us?

"Ahem, we are also very curious, but we don't know what gift Mr. Du gave you."

"Yes, it's good to take it out and let everyone see it! Broaden your horizons!"

The two had to say.

Mother became happy, stood up, stepped on wooden clogs and ran into the house, and quickly brought out the gifts Du Yongxiao bought for them.

In the eyes of my uncle and aunt, the first time a man visits, he will at most give some fruits or nutritional supplements. Those with a little status will give more advanced red wine, gift boxes, etc. So they guessed that what Du Yongxiao gave was at most some gift boxes, containing some American ginseng, etc. Or it was the popular bird's nest and abalone in Hong Kong.

But——

"Come on, take a look first!" Mother first brought out the Chinese purple clay tea set that Du Yongxiao gave to Sakuragi's father, and said: "See, this set of Chinese tea set is very beautiful, it is said to be the best purple clay tea set there——"

My uncle and aunt looked at it, and sure enough, this set of tea set was exquisite and more distinctive than their traditional Japanese tea set.

"Ahem, this set of tea set is very good."

"Yes, it costs a lot of money, right?"

"Not much!" This sentence was said by Sakuragi Rin. "That's just 100,000 yen!"

"Hiss!" Uncle and aunt took a breath and looked at the tea set. 100,000 yen?

Dad and mother were also stunned. Although they accepted the gift, they didn't dare to ask their daughter how much it was worth. They didn't expect that this tea set alone was 100,000!

100,000 yen is equivalent to 4,000 or 5,000 Hong Kong dollars in this era, and 4,000 or 5,000 Hong Kong dollars is more than three months' salary for many white-collar workers in Hong Kong!

"Ahem, so expensive!" Mother touched the tea sets in surprise.

Her actions seemed to be deliberately showing off in the eyes of uncle and aunt. They thought, just keep acting. Don't you know the price of such an expensive gift?

"What about this kimono?" Mother asked Sakuragi Rin, "It's not cheap, right?"

Sakuragi Rin took out the kimono and gestured on her mother a few times and said, "It's not too expensive, only 200,000!"

"Ahem!" Mother shuddered and almost dropped the kimono on the ground.

Their family has always been poor, and they almost emptied their savings to support their daughter to go to college, so Sakuragi Rin's mother usually wears the kimonos left over by her aunt or others. Even if she buys new ones during the holidays, they are all discounted backlogs or defective products.

Where has she seen such an expensive kimono? She was a little stunned for a while.

Sakuragi Rin looked at her mother's appearance and knew what she was thinking, and she couldn't help feeling bitter.

She remembered clearly that when she was a child, she didn't have new clothes to wear during the New Year, so her mother would cut up her own kimonos and make new clothes for her by hand, but she herself only wore those worn-out kimonos.

When she went to college, in order for her daughter to eat well so that she could study hard, her mother was reluctant to spend an extra penny. She rarely wore kimonos, such precious traditional clothing, and even if she did, they were leftovers from other people's clothing.

Now that she is rich, she just wants to compensate them well and let them spend their remaining years happily.

"Mom, don't be surprised. In fact, this money is not much for Brother Du! If you like it, I will buy it for you often in the future!"

"Uh, are you buying it for me?" The mother was stunned. Sakuragi Rin's words revealed two meanings. First, Du Yongxiao was very rich, and second, her daughter seemed to be very powerful.

"Didn't you resign and quit being a police officer? How can you have the money to buy these for me?"

"I found a new job!" Sakuragi Rin hugged her mother and chuckled, "So don't worry from now on, I will support you!"

Sakuragi Rin said this with pride and pride. Now that she is in charge of Pangu Security Company, not to mention dividends, her monthly salary alone is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to more than 2 million yen!

Especially as a girl, in such a society where men are superior to women and women are inferior, how much strength does it take to say something like this loudly?

Before Sakuragi Rin's family could figure it out, Sakuragi Rin took out the set of Goro Takahashi's silver jewelry given by Du Yongxiao: "As for this set of silver jewelry, it is the masterpiece of Master Takahashi. It cost one million when I bought it!"

boom!

Mother was dizzy.

"Cough cough cough!" Dad almost choked on his tea.

The eldest uncle and eldest aunt's eyes all bulged out and almost fell out. There was only one number in their minds: "One million?"

"Daughter, are you right? This set of silver jewelry costs one...one million?" Mother asked again.

Sakuragi Rin nodded, "I won't let him buy such an expensive one, but he said that this kind of master-made one is more meaningful, and it also has collection value. It will definitely increase in value in the future -"

These words were indeed said by Du Yongxiao.

Because Du Yongxiao knows that as time goes by, the masterpieces of Master Goro Takahashi will be on the auction block, and one piece will be hard to find! A large silver feather alone can fetch 400,000 Hong Kong dollars!

The value of a complete set like this is even more difficult to estimate.

The father and mother were speechless with excitement at this moment. They looked at Du Yongxiao and realized that this future son-in-law was so generous!

"These are so expensive!"

"Yes, Xiao, you are very thoughtful!"

My father and mother almost cried with joy. This son-in-law is so good. Not only is he an official, but he is also so rich. The most important thing is that he is so willing to give to them. He is not stingy at all. It seems that they will have hope for their retirement in the future.

The eldest uncle and eldest aunt woke up from the shock and saw that each other's "family" was harmonious. Especially when Du Yongxiao made a move, he bought silver jewelry worth one million yen, which shocked them deeply!

The two of them murmured again, saying that the Hong Kong police were rich, but they didn't expect it to be true!

Looking at the set of silver jewelry, the eldest aunt drooled even more. She wished she could have a daughter like Sakuragi Rin and find a wealthy son-in-law like Du Yongxiao.

Just when the eldest uncle and eldest aunt were envious, Du Yongxiao turned to look at them and smiled slightly: "I don't know if you two are here, otherwise I will prepare a gift for you -"

"It's okay, it's okay!"

"Yeah, we don't lack anything!"

The two said politely, but there was hope in their eyes.

Du Yongxiao smiled, "But I happen to have a little something on me, so I might as well give it to you as a gift!"

"Ah, what is it?"

The eldest uncle and eldest aunt's eyes suddenly lit up.

Du Yongxiao reached into his arms, took out his black wallet, then held out a golden business card between his index and middle fingers, handed it to the two of them personally and said, "Here, this is my business card."

"Huh?" The eldest uncle and eldest aunt were greatly disappointed when they saw this. They looked at the business card and thought that it would be better to give them some yen.

"Ahem, thanks!" The uncle politely took the business card. Suddenly, he realized that the business card was wrong -——

Some pressure!

Somewhat metallic! Closer look--

That turned out to be——

Pure gold!
