Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 307 First Arrival in Hong Kong
Soon Yi Weidong found a shop with lights on. He stood on the side of the road to identify the signboard for a long time before confirming that it was a bar. He thought it was a hotel. He was about to leave when he came out of the bar. Three drunken men came stumbling around.

Yi Weidong frowned from the side of the road, only one of them shouted: "Dalu boy, Dalu boy."

After shouting twice, Yi Weidong realized that it was him, turned around and asked, "Are you calling me?"

The other person spoke quickly, but unfortunately Yi Weidong didn't understand a word. The first person who spoke said with a smile: "At first glance, he is a mainland boy who came here illegally. Look at his rags."

Yi Weidong listened to the general idea reluctantly, and saw that his outfit was really incompatible with the clothes of the three people opposite him. Just as he was about to ask about the situation, he saw that the drunk man in the middle had already shown a dagger.

It turned out that not all the people who smuggled over from the other side were poor people, some people also hid some jewelry, big and small yellow croakers. Seeing that Yi Weidong had only one person with empty hands, they wanted to rob him once to see if there was any hidden valuables on him.

Although Yi Weidong didn't understand what they said, but a dagger was shown on the empty street, and he instantly knew what the opponent's intention was. He didn't expect that he would encounter three robbers when he came here. The figure of Hong Kong gangsters is indispensable.

The person who spoke first said slowly, "Dalu Boy, take out your valuables obediently, or I'll let you taste the three knives and six holes."

Yi Weidong smiled, and just like the last time he dealt with Xu Damao, he took out two steel pipes from the space and put them in his sleeves, and the steel pipes slipped into his hands with his hands hanging down, without giving the opponent time to react, he moved forward and approached the three of them He raised the steel pipe with both hands and swung it towards the heads of the three people.

Amidst the exclamation of the three people, one of them fell limply to the ground after being hit. Yi Weidong muttered, "It's really useless, I fell down in one fell swoop, and I'm going to follow the young and Dangerous boy out to rob."

Think about the movies of Young and Dangerous at this time, and I don’t know if there are comics about Young and Dangerous.

Shaking his head, he put away the dagger first, and the following is Yi Weidong's favorite part of touching the corpse. The three of them only found more than 200 yuan in total. Yi Weidong pouted, it turned out to be three poor ghosts.

Turned around and walked a few steps, then turned around and turned back, picked up the communicative drunks and put them on the jeep, started it and drove to the southeast.

Soon, they came to the place where there was no shop in the front of the village, and the drunk was tied up and placed on the side of the road. Some cold water was poured on his head from the space, and the drunk soon woke up faintly.

Yi Weidong stood in front with a dagger, watched the drunk man struggle first, and then asked resignedly, "What do you want to do?"

Yi Weidong played with the dagger in his hand and asked: "You wanted to give me three holes and six holes just now, of course I have to return it now."

The drunk man struggled and said: "My lord, since I am also the one coming from the opposite side, please spare me this time! Please."

Yi Weidong scratched the drunk man's thigh with the tip of the dagger, and said with a smile: "Since you are also coming from the opposite side, I will ask you a few questions. If there is one sentence that I am not satisfied with, I will press the dagger down." .”

The drunk man was terrified, and begged: "Good man, I will tell you everything I know, and I will satisfy you."

Yi Weidong asked, "Where was that area just now?"

The drunk quickly said, "Yuen Long, that belongs to Yuen Long."

"Where can I go along this road?"

The drunk man looked around and said, "Go straight along the highway and you will reach Tsuen Wan in the New Territories."

Seeing Yi Weidong's expressionless face, he quickly continued: "Further south are Kwai Hing, Kwai Fong, Lai Chi Kok, Prince Edward, Mong Kok, Yau Ma Tei, and Kowloon."

The drunk man secretly groaned inwardly, the man in front of him seemed to be a newcomer, most people would not know the names of these places, and did not know whether his answer was satisfactory or not.

Yi Weidong really didn’t know about the previous ones, but he was familiar with the place names of Mong Kok and Kowloon behind. There is no subsea tunnel yet, and he has to go to the pier in Tsim Sha Tsui to take a boat to Hong Kong Island on the opposite side.Asked: "Where is Tsim Sha Tsui?"

"After passing Yau Ma Tei and going south is Tsim Sha Tsui, and there is a direct ferry to Hong Kong Island by the sea."

Yi Weidong was noncommittal, and then asked some questions, and finally found out some of the situation in Hong Kong Island. Now, as long as the person from the other side has successfully come here, he can apply for a Hong Kong Island identity in Yuen Long and Kwai Wan for a little money. proved.

Yi Weidong asked: "I want to find someone, how can I find it?"

The drunk asked, "Separated from relatives?"

Yi Weidong nodded and said, "Their family has been here for two years."

"Then there is no other way." Seeing that Yi Weidong wanted to make a move, the drunk hurriedly said, "It's easy to find if you have money, but it's hard to find if you don't have money."

"Why do you say that?"

"Those who don't have money will go to some factories to work, and there are very few people in contact with. If you have money, you can look for people in newspapers. If you happen to see them, they will come to you. There are more than 300 million people on Hong Kong Island. You don't know where they are. The location is simply impossible to find!"

What the drunk man said was true. It must be difficult to find someone. No one knows where they will end up. However, the Lou family has Yi Weidong's reminder. Apart from leaving some for Lou Xiao'e, the rest of the family property I brought them all, so I should be able to read some newspapers!

Yi Weidong couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find someone from Lou's family, so it's better to go to the next stop first to get his ID card. Only with an ID card can he go to the newspaper office to find someone.

Yi Weidong untied the rope and ignored the dazed drunk, got into the jeep and drove directly along the road to the next stop.

I didn't go down the mountain until dawn. I saw a large living area below. After breakfast, I changed my bicycle and rode down.

Looking at the clothes that didn't suit me, I first found a clothing store and wanted to buy a suit of clothes. The clerk was not surprised that Yi Weidong could not speak Cantonese, but was more concerned about whether Yi Weidong had money to pay. First take out Hong Kong dollars to buy clothes smoothly.

After changing clothes in the fitting room and coming out, Yi Weidong asked in English, "Where can I get an ID card nearby?"

Now it was the clerk's turn to be surprised. I didn't expect that the stowaway could speak English, but unfortunately I couldn't understand English. The clerk probably took Yi Weidong's English as a face, and gestured for Yi Weidong to follow him out of the clothing store. Walked more than ten meters along the street and entered a photo studio.

The owner of the photo studio seemed to be in his early forties. Seeing the two people coming in, the gentleman chatted with the clerk. After the clerk smiled and left, the boss asked in blunt Mandarin, "Do you want to apply for an ID card?"

Yi Weidong nodded and said, "Do you have a way? How do you handle it? Will you accept the money on the other side?"

The boss shook his head and said, "I have a way. The money on the opposite side cannot be spent on Hong Kong Island, but if there are yellow croakers, we will accept them."

"How much can the little yellow croaker be exchanged for?"

"One can be exchanged for 70 yuan, and it costs 150 yuan to go through the formalities and take a photo."

Yi Weidong asked the drunk before that now one gram of gold can be exchanged for four yuan, and a small yellow croaker is a little more than 31 grams, which can be exchanged for about 120 yuan.

But the owner of the photo studio only gave the price of 70 yuan, which is already cut in half.

Yi Weidong said: "Your price is too low, I have already inquired about it."

The boss smiled and said, "Young man, you don't have an ID card."

Yi Weidong pretended to be heartbroken and said, "Can't it be cheaper?"

The boss shook his head and said, "It's all the same market, we also want to eat, right?"

Right now, Yi Weidong can only do it here, and if he changes places, it won’t be any better than here, as long as he can get his ID card smoothly: “Okay, I’ll do one, how long will it take to get it?”

The boss said: "Pay the money first, and it will be done for you in three days."

Yi Weidong took out two small yellow croakers from his pocket with distress, and handed them to the boss with a face full of reluctance. After checking, the boss said, "Is there still ten yuan short?"

Yi Weidong gave another banknote, and the boss took a photo, asked Yi Weidong's name, date of birth and other information, and finally said:
"You can't run around in these two days, come to my ID card in the afternoon the day after tomorrow."

Yi Weidong asked: "Can you recommend me a hotel!"

"Alright, I'll take you there."

The boss led Yi Weidong to a small hotel nearby. Yi Weidong chose a single room for 15 yuan a night, with a bed, a table and two chairs, and nothing else.

Yi Weidong spent two nights in fear, and finally got his Hong Kong City ID card at noon.

With his ID card, Yi Weidong became a lot more stubborn. First, he checked out his room and took a bus to Tsim Sha Tsui, and then took the Star Ferry to Central.

In the New Territories, it looked like old and dilapidated houses. Only when I arrived in Central did I find that there were already high-rise buildings everywhere, most of which were more than a dozen floors. Mercedes-Benz and BMW classic cars abound on the streets, and there are many that look like I don't recognize the high-end car logos, and there are successful people in suits and leather shoes coming and going in a hurry, what a bustling city scene.

I bought some newspapers and a map at a newsstand on the side of the road, and started to study the map of Hong Kong Island. Now I want to find a way to gain a foothold and make a little money by the way. I thought too ideally before. I want to find Mr. Lou’s family. It's really difficult.

After researching for a long time with a map, I saw that there was a Chow Tai Fook shop nearby, so I had to exchange some money first, because I couldn't live on only the hundred and ten dollars I had with me.

I have inquired about it before, and now the wages of general workers are only more than 100 yuan, and some middle-level administrators only have two to three hundred yuan, but I live in hotels and restaurants, and this money can't last for a few days.

When I came to Chow Tai Fook's shop, the decoration was similar to that of later generations, with a modern atmosphere everywhere. The female shop assistants were all uniforms of white shirts and skirts, with a smile on their faces like a spring breeze. It really felt like returning to the previous life.

Yi Weidong walked to the counter and asked, "Does your store accept gold?"

The beautiful shop assistant spoke blunt Mandarin and said with a smile: "Sir, we accept gold, please follow me."

The female clerk came out of the counter and came to a counter inside, and said to Yi Weidong, "Sir, this is a counter dedicated to buying gold."

Yi Weidong nodded and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Yi Weidong asked the male clerk in charge of the purchase: "How much is gold per gram now?"

The male clerk listened to the extremely standard Mandarin and said: "Do you have a Hong Kong ID card? If you don't have a proof, we won't accept it."

Yi Weidong took out the ID card he had just obtained and handed it to the clerk. After checking, he said, "The purchase price of gold is 3.6 yuan per gram."

Yi Weidong then took out two large yellow croakers and handed them to the clerk. The clerk weighed them first, then checked them and said:
"Sir, this is 610 five grams of gold, which can be exchanged for 2000 two hundred and fourteen yuan in cash. Are you sure you want to exchange it?"

Yi Weidong said: "If you change it, just give me the cash."

Soon a bundle of cash was handed over to Yi Weidong, and now he didn't panic. With money and ID card in hand, he could find Uncle Lou's family slowly.

After getting out of Chow Tai Fook, I walked to the nearest bus stop. The Central District looked good, but the accommodation was too expensive, costing hundreds of dollars a night. Yi Weidong had to save the [-] that he just got.

I have already selected my destination as the Causeway Bay area, which is less developed than Central, so I need to find a place to settle down before considering the next step.

After getting on the crowded bus, Yi Weidong frowned, feeling that someone had pressed his trouser pocket. Most of the money had been sent into the space at noon, and there was only a little cash in his pocket. Got caught by a pickpocket.

Yi Weidong knew that many people were committed by gangs, so he pressed himself just now to confirm the location of his money, so that it would be easier for the gangs to attack.

Yi Weidong is on high alert even if he just came to Hong Kong Island, he will not be afraid of this little thief, if he really steals from him, he will always teach them a lesson.

The thief didn't do anything behind the stop-and-go bus, and Yi Weidong thought the thief had given up. It wasn't until the moment Yi Weidong got off the bus at the destination, Causeway Bay, that two fingers stuck into Yi Weidong's pocket.

Yi Weidong grabbed the thief's wrist with his backhand, and they both got off the bus in the next area. The thief let out a cry of surprise and was taken to the ground. As soon as the thief got up, Yi Weidong grabbed him again, and the people around were just surprised eyes, hurriedly got up and left without stopping.

The thief seemed to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he shouted extremely arrogantly: "Dalu boy, let me go."

Listening to the broken Mandarin, Yi Weidong asked, "Did you follow me just now?"

The thief said: "Let go, I didn't steal anything."

Pulling the thief to the side of the road, he smiled and said, "Did I tell you you stole something?"

The thief struggled a few times and found that he couldn't break free, so he said helplessly: "If you hold on to it again, I will call you molested!"

Yi Weidong quickly let go of his hand and asked, "What? Are you a girl?"

Yi Weidong took a look at the young man who claimed to be a girl on the opposite side. He had a flat figure and standard short hair, but his face was fairer. No matter how he looked, he was a young man.

Yi Weidong's wanton scrutiny was said to be sensed by the girl thief, and he covered his chest with his arms and said in shock: "Rogue, where are you looking? Look at me, I gouged out your eyes."

Only then did Yi Weidong realize that the thief opposite had no Adam's apple, and he was really a little girl.

If it was a boy, Yi Weidong could give him a good beating to teach him a lesson, but this is just a little girl who is underage, and he can't do the beating himself.

Yi Weidong said: "Being more like a boy than a boy, what's so good about it?"

The thief said angrily: "You mainland boy, you are so rude. My wrist is swollen. I don't know how to say sorry."

Yi Weidong turned around and wanted to leave, then turned back and said, "First, it's impolite for you to call me Daluzai;
Second, you want to steal my money, so I swollen your wrist;

Third, you are a thief, it is good that I did not send you to the police. "

"You still say it's not the mainland boy, do you know that our Hong Kong Island is called the police station? It's the police, cut!"

Yi Weidong's words were in vain, this tricky thief only heard the loopholes in the words, it seemed that he didn't listen to the rest.

Yi Weidong shook his head, turned around, and was about to leave. The girl hurriedly ran two steps to stop her with her arms outstretched, and asked, "You are so rude, I still have something to ask you."

Yi Weidong said helplessly: "I don't care about you, a thief, why are you stopping me?"

"Again I'm not a thief," the girl yelled.

After shouting, he said in a low voice: "I really have no choice. If I don't give them the money, my shop will be lost."

Yi Weidong said: "Whether your shop can be kept or not has nothing to do with me, and this is not a reason to steal my money."

"Why are you so difficult to speak, this is my first time."

The thief looked at Yi Weidong's expression of disbelief, and said angrily, "What I said is true, this is really the first time I have stolen money, otherwise I wouldn't have been caught by you."

Yi Weidong looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "I don't care if it's your first time or not. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. What are you trying to stop me now?"
