At the beginning, I want to quit the arena

Chapter 53 The auspicious time has come
Fire Kee Restaurant, Reclamation Street, Mong Kok.

Compared with the decades-old restaurants in this area, such as Fengcheng, Dayou, and Xinsheng, Huoji Restaurant is much less well-known, and the scale is not too large. The entire hall can only hold 35 tables at most.

But the young and Dangerous in this area, especially the older so-called Jianghu seniors, uncles and veterans, like to come to this restaurant to gather every now and then.

The reason is that Chen Wanzhuo, the owner of the Huoji Restaurant, and the waiters in the store have really been clerks, that is, Xiangjiang police. There is a difference between clerk and clerk. The same fire, and the buddy is a tea restaurant, a student in a tea house.

Chen Wanzhuo was a senior inspector before the establishment of the ICAC, and he was one step away from the position of the inspector. However, the ICAC cracked down on corruption, which led to him being expelled from the police force. After leaving the police force, he opened the Huoji Restaurant. Several of the guys were plainclothes men who followed him back then and were similarly unlucky and dismissed.

Those elders who are already old in the Jianghu like to gather in Huoji to recall the all-powerful years in the past, and together with Chen Wanzhuo, scold a few words of unjust, unruly scoundrels and Jianghu people.

Sheng Jiale has booked 35 tables in the lobby of Huoji Restaurant tonight. In fact, there are only [-] tables of real guests, and the other five tables are filled with food and wine. They are used to entertain Sheng Jiale before washing his hands. The counterparty of the clearing.

At [-]:[-], when Sheng Jiale arrived at Huoji Restaurant, there were already eight or nine tables of guests inside, except for Huajiu and the dozen or so youngsters under him, as well as the women who followed his men to start work.

Most of the other people were subordinates sent by some grooms in advance to help. The so-called help is of course polite, but in fact it is to let the subordinates come over first, and tell Sheng Jiale that there is no need to rush, and that he will definitely come to cheer tonight.

On the stage at the front of the hall, a copper basin filled with clear water has been set up in a decent manner, and behind it are several plaques, which are hung on the background wall of the stage in turn.

On a few plaques, there are inscriptions such as "Different customs", "Don't look into the past", "Gentle and straightforward", "Friends of Zhilan", "Ya'an Zhuojue", etc., which in Sheng Jiale's opinion are absolutely black inscriptions on him.

These plaques were given by others to Sheng Jiale who washed his hands tonight.

"Different customs" was given by Dabao and Huajiu, and I am their boss, so it is understandable for the two of them to brag about Sheng Jiale's high moral character.

"Don't look into the past" was sent by the gods, and it can be regarded as a topic, to the effect that the past will be written off.

"Wen Gongzhi forgiveness" was sent by Lin's mother. Sheng Jiale and Lin's mother have always had a good relationship. Several times, Lin's mother proposed to accept Sheng Jiale as a child. This is because Lin's mother praised him for his humility and understanding.

What is more exaggerated is the plaque that reads "Friends of Zhilan", which was given by more than 30 daughters under him collectively, describing the relationship between a groom and more than [-] daughters as like Zhicao and Lancao, with noble morals...

Sheng Jiale felt that it was more comfortable for him to give himself the words "wolf and a traitor".

I don’t know which groom in Hong Kong set the rules when he was the first to wash his hands in the golden basin. The official start time for the groom’s golden basin to wash his hands is at 06:30, which means that the groom makes his living by doves, and the golden basin washes his hands. I don't know how to try horses, and I completely seal the dove. The time of 06:30 is chosen, which just means that the dove doesn't need to be raised again.

As the clock in the hall rang at six o'clock, the number of people coming from outside the restaurant gradually increased. Brother Kui and nine other men who had been taken care of by Sheng Jiale in the Kowloon Walled City did not come close to greet him, but far away. Sitting in a circle at the corner near the door, he grinned at Sheng Jiale as a greeting.

Afterwards, She Ziming brought nine people over, chatted with Sheng Jiale with a smile, and then sat aside.

Then came the gods, who also brought nine people, occupying a table.

At [-]:[-], Dabao, who was in charge of welcoming guests at the door, ran towards Sheng Jiale quickly, his tone a little excited: "Brother Le, Old Moge is here in person!"

Hearing these words, Sheng Jiale got up from the main table and walked quickly towards the main entrance of the restaurant.

Old Mo Mai Zhirong is currently in a state of desperation, but he still manages to spare time to come here to participate in Sheng Jiale's golden basin hand washing ceremony, which definitely gives him enough face in Sheng Jiale.

Outside the main entrance of the restaurant, Lao Mo and his team drove five cars, and a dozen people got out of the car and walked over. Mai Zhirong, the leader, greeted Sheng Jiale: "Ale, happy birthday!"

"Old Mo Ge!" Sheng Jiale also went up to him and said, "I didn't even dare to invite you, I know you have a lot of things recently."

Mai Zhirong and Sheng Jiale said with wry smiles as they walked inside: "Both sides are talking to me, I hope I will stand up and make it clear that I am a groom, not a leader, what are you talking about? I have been annoyed by them lately these days I'm going to die, so I just borrowed your birthday to come out to catch my breath."

Xin Kee is now in conflict, the situation is on the verge of breaking out, and the person both sides are trying to win is Yau Tsim Mong, the number one horse king, and Lao Mo Mai Zhirong, who manages most of the night shows in this area for Xin Kee The women's business is the out-and-out god of wealth of the society.

Just as Mai Zhirong was greeted to sit down, Ma Zichen came in in plain clothes outside, smiled and greeted many Jiang Hu people who were already familiar, and said to Sheng Jiale who greeted him: "Brother Fanfan and the others have no time to come over, so they sent me over for dinner , You’re welcome, I don’t want to eat your banquet, just go and ask Uncle Zhuo to cook a bowl of noodles for me, otherwise the ICAC will make trouble for me.”

At [-]:[-], the sound of opening and closing the car door outside sounded one after another, Dabao looked at Sheng Jiale again, this time he didn't care about running over to deliver the message, so he could only say loudly:

"Mother Lin, Brother Tiger, Brother Pretty Pan is here, Brother Le!"

Dabao's words made the whole hall instantly quiet. The group of people were quiet not because of Lin's mother, but because of the name Tiger.

The number gang Xiaozi Dui Tiger, known as the first brother in Yau Ma Tei, is a gangster in this area as famous as Huang Jun, the tiger of East Tsim Sha Tsui.

Lao Mo and Lin Ma have some reputations, but they are more famous because of their women's business. They are not a fierce person who can make people in the world like thunder, but they are Taishan Beidou who do their part in the groom business, but Tiger is different. To put it bluntly, Tiger's appearance at Sheng Jiale's birthday party is like the popular movie star Cheng Long's appearance at the birthday party of an unknown film director.

32-year-old Tiger, wearing a suit, wearing a pair of flat glasses on his face, his hair neatly combed with pomade, except for his tall and strong figure, he has completely lost the air of a well-known gangster and a double-bonus red stick The scene looked more like a young businessman, with Linma and Liangpan following him from left to right.

"Brother Tiger! You scared me." Sheng Jiale had met Tiger before. He was not unfamiliar, but he was not close either. Come on, I've already driven to pick you up in person."

Tiger patted Jing Pan beside him, and said with a smile to Sheng Jiale: "Jing Pan is my good brother, he asked me to be the gatekeeper for you Damo, I must come."

The so-called blocking evil means that when Sheng Jiale Jinpen washes his hands, if someone wants to come to make trouble, and sees that there is someone he can't afford to provoke among the people present, even if he wants to seek revenge, he will not dare to speak up. Tonight Tiger Here, as long as Sheng Jiale didn't offend Fu Tou Jun, Dao Ba Gang, and Hua Ya, who are as famous as Tiger, it can basically be concluded that no one would dare to speak up to spoil the fun.

"Wait, are you going to wash your hands or wash your hands? Da Mo?" Jing Pan's injuries had mostly healed, and she looked at the copper basin in the middle with a smile, and asked Sheng Jiale.

Sheng Jiale looked at Liang Pan: "Originally, I wanted to wash the doves, but when I saw you, I was worried that my one would be younger than you, so I shouldn't make a fool of myself? Thank you, Brother Jing Pan."

Liang Pan and Sheng Jiale clapped their hands together. To Sheng Jiale, Liang Pan hoped to be friends with each other, but unfortunately, this guy quit the arena before he had a deep friendship, which made Liang Pan feel a little regretful.

"Wow, you won't be able to see Lin's mother when Tiger appears?" Lin's mother next to her opened her arms, hugged Sheng Jiale, and said with a smile: "I still want to accept you as my Qizi, but now it's all right, your groom doesn't care Do it, just be my son-in-law, and I will support you, okay?"

The moment he hugged Lin's mother, Sheng Jiale suddenly discovered that Chili, Alex, and Feng Ao'er actually appeared among the people brought by Lin's mother, and beside Chili was Coco who was driven away by him before.

The four women raised their hands toward him, flicked their fingers, and smiled.

At this moment, the guests were present, and Sheng Jiale was not very good at asking questions, so he just nodded slightly as a response.

At this time, a distant and ethereal chime sounded, and Uncle Zhuo, the owner of the restaurant, walked onto the stage holding a small bronze chime in his hand:
"The auspicious time has come, and all the guests attending the ceremony are invited to take their seats."

　The editor told me that the book will be on the shelves on July [-]st, and then I did the math, and I already owe seven lords’ refills. If the interest is not counted, I have to add seven chapters... According to my understanding of these goods, It's not their style not to calculate interest with me...

　　Headache~~ Then the editor also hit my self-confidence, saying that the writing was too overwhelming~~ The protagonist is just like him, he is not aggressive at all, he lives like a social animal, he always has a sense of substitution... I thought about it For a long time, I thought that he went to work part-time as a groom after getting off work from the starting point every day?

　　I can only tell him that the protagonist is now focused on being a good person, and he is afraid that a small problem will prevent him from becoming a Hong Kong businessman... So he has to give up completely before he can reveal the truth, and it is actually up to me~ I am hasty ~ I just started talking about it while chatting in the group, I didn't think about it carefully...

　　I guess many readers may have the same idea as the editor. It is indeed my problem, but it is not a big problem. After killing Xidu, the protagonist can almost officially start to let go of the shackles and let himself go...

　　This editor is too difficult to deal with, it’s not good to always use the data at every turn, and urge the author to start a new book~~ I was so scared that I asked him to follow up the data [-] times a day...

　　It will be on the shelves on July [-]st, which means that I have to update at least seven chapters, let’s not talk about it, go down and collect manuscripts... Everyone, remember to help follow up~
