Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 265

Seeing Zhang Rongfei asking him why he was here, Chu Xiangqian didn't answer and asked with a smile, "Pretty boy, how many days will it take for the cinema to open?"

When Zhang Rongfei heard this, he could no longer hide the smile on his face, "I talked with the master who installed the machine and the head of the decoration this morning. The machine that plays the movie can be finished in about three days.

As for decoration, if two shifts work overnight, the work can be completed in two days. "

Chu Qianqian looked at the work clothes Zhang Rongfei was wearing. There was still a lot of white dust left on the wall, and the other boys were similar.

One look shows that they have been helping out in the cinema these days.

Nodding with satisfaction, "Boss Bai's four cinemas in Central and Wan Chai, and my five cinemas in Kowloon are also being renovated at such a fast pace?"

Zhang Rongfei chuckled, "Boss, it will take four to five days for Boss Bai, and it may take a few more days for the six cinemas in Kowloon."

Chu knew there was something wrong inside when he looked forward, and turned back to Zhang Tianzhi and said, "Brother Zhi, call Fei Bo's subordinate Dakou Ying and Lan Gang's subordinate Huo Niu and ask them to check it out.

However, if you find a problem, don't make it public. I'll talk to Boss Bai myself. "

Zhang Tianzhi nodded hurriedly and went out to make a phone call.

Chu Qianqian smiled at Zhang Rongfei and said, "Let's go, take me in and have a look. If you do a really good job, maybe I will leave the entire cinema to you."

Let alone Zhang Rongfei now, even the four or five subordinates around him became excited.

If the boss can become the manager of a movie theater, everyone won't have to worry about work in the future.

And working in a movie theater is considered a serious white-collar job.

After Chu Xiangqian entered the movie, he saw rows of seats at a glance.

These days, in order to save costs, cinemas and theaters are built into large theaters with two floors, which can seat two to three hundred, or even four to five hundred people.

Moreover, there are not many entertainment activities for ordinary people. As long as the movie is good, or the famous opera actors are on stage, there are not many audiences who come to watch it.

This cinema used to be an old warehouse that was 24 meters long, 18 meters wide and 7 meters high. After it was bought by Baifanyu, the interior was not only converted into a screening room, but also a two-story office area separated by 6 meters.

Even the walls and structures outside the warehouse have undergone a lot of maintenance.

Moreover, the warehouse itself also has a yard. If the wall facing the street is demolished and the ground is leveled, not only can a ticket office be built, but also four stores can be expanded for the sale of snacks, sodas and rentals.

The other three sides of the yard can also be used as a parking lot.

It will definitely be no problem to park hundreds of cars.

This 3-acre area alone is located in Causeway Bay, one of the most prosperous areas of Hong Kong Island in the future. In the future, the cinema will be demolished and a commercial and residential building will be built.

Or you can buy the 4-story tenement building next to it and build it into a shopping mall.

The so-called tenement buildings are actually similar to the Tongzilou in the Mainland, or the old-fashioned student dormitory buildings.

After the 60s, this type of building shape was basically abandoned on Hong Kong Island, but at this time, such buildings could be seen everywhere on Hong Kong Island.

And the people living there are basically the middle-income group of Hong Kong Island.

After seeing the decoration and equipment in the cinema, Chu Qianqian walked out of the cinema, looked around, and asked Zhang Rongfei, "Is this 4-story tenement building rented to those residents, or does each family buy their own house?"

Zhang Rongfei was stunned and quickly looked at the younger brother beside him.

The boy scratched his head and said, "Boss, it seems to be the property of an old man named Uncle Hua. We originally planned to rent a room here as a dormitory."

Chu Qianqian nodded and said to Zhang Rongfei, "Ask if this building is for sale? If it is sold, I will pay 2% above the market price and give residents who have already rented a house one month to vacate the house.

During this period, the rent is halved. "

Zhang Rongfei nodded hurriedly, secretly thinking that Chu Qianqian, the boss, was really kind-hearted. If it had been someone else, he would have kicked people out immediately after buying it.

Not long after, Zhang Rongfei not only came back, but also came over with this old man wearing a white old washed shirt, holding a purple clay pot in his hand and smiling kindly.

Zhang Tianzhi's eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously took a few steps forward, blocking Chu Qianqian's side.

Chu Xiangqian also narrowed his eyes slightly, how could he not recognize the face of the charterer of the old man.

He seemed harmless to humans and animals, as if he were an ordinary old man, but Chu Xiangqian was still sure that this old man knew kung fu.

After all, Yuan Hua, one of the Seven Little Fortunes, has basically never played a character who knows no kung fu.

Uncle Hua originally thought he was just a big movie theater owner who had taken a fancy to the tenement building where he used to live for his retirement. He just wanted to meet and chat so as not to offend others, so he followed Zhang Rongfei here.

Unexpectedly, before he even got close, the man in a suit next to him noticed him. Not only did Uncle Hua know Zhang Tianzhi, he had also dealt with him several times.

I immediately regretted that I should not have come.

What made him regret even more was that he didn't bring the gun with him.

Zhang Tianzhi stared at Uncle Hua's right hand and asked with a cold face, "Don't tell me, is this tenement building really yours?"

Yuan Hua immediately pretended to be cowardly. Seven steps away, he was confident that the gun was faster than kung fu.

But within seven steps, even if he hit Zhang Tianzhi, he would definitely hurt his heart with his heavy punch.

"This brother, no matter what, we have dealt with each other many times, and you should also know that I only talk and never take action myself.

This time it's a coincidence. If your boss wants to buy a house, give me 20 yuan. I will hand over the deed immediately and leave by myself. "

Chu Xiangqian also understood now that this old guy should be a killer agent, and he had given Zhang Tianzhi several tasks in the cinema.

Moreover, this old guy not only has good kung fu, but also has a powerful marksmanship.

At the same time, he also has a Muay Thai master.

This made Chu Qianqian couldn't help but remember that after he and Tornado finished the ring, when Lei Luo came to congratulate him in person, he mentioned at the wine table that there was a Muay Thai master doing business in Hong Kong Island.

Patting Zhang Tianzhi on the shoulder, Chu Qianqian said with a smile, "Relax, Brother Zhi, this old gentleman looks like he is dressing up at home."

Zhang Tianzhi was actually only worried that Yuan Hua had a gun in his hand. He took a closer look and made sure that there was no gun hidden in the old man's body.

Only then did he take two steps back to the side.

Yuanhua also saw Chu Xiangqian's appearance clearly at this time, and he suddenly cursed in his heart.

I had seen Chu step forward before, and it was still under the ring.

At that time, he was wearing a long robe and mandarin jacket, but now he is wearing a crisp suit, which makes people subconsciously think that he is a young man.

He hurriedly raised his hands to Chu Qianqian and said, "Master Chu, misunderstanding, misunderstanding. If I knew it was you, I would definitely dress up and come to see you."

Chu Xiangqian smiled. 20 yuan was not expensive to buy a 4-story building with 5 rooms on each floor.

But I don't care about this tenement building now, even if I give this old guy 20 for free.

"Master Rong?"

Yuan Hua was taken aback, thinking to himself that he had never told outsiders what his last name was.

Now that Chu Xiangqian yelled at him, his vigilance against Chu Xiangqian immediately increased tenfold.

He nodded hurriedly and bowed, "Master Chu, please give me your orders."

Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "20 is no problem. I will ask a lawyer to come over and sign a contract with you later. You can pay in cash or a check. However, I want to ask now, where is that Thai guy who is good at Muay Thai?" "

Yuan Hua's face tightened, and he secretly wondered if someone in the business he was taking had a relationship with Chu Qianqian, right?
Fortunately, this idea was rejected by him within a few seconds.

The few businesses Tony did were before Chu Xiangqian came to Hong Kong Island. There was no reason why he and Tony would be so unlucky. It was just because he assassinated someone that Chu Xiangqian, the tiger, was attracted from the mainland.

But there is a contingency in everything, and Yuan Hua didn't think that he could escape from Chu Xiangqian and Zhang Tianzhi with his bare hands.

In line with the idea that a dead Taoist friend should not die a poor Taoist, Yuan Hua asked in a low voice, "Master Chu and Tony have a grudge? Or did that kid offend you unintentionally?"

Chu Xiangqian shook his head, "I just can't bear the sight of foreigners coming to our place to make trouble. So, if you know where he is, tell him, either do things for me, or go back to your hometown with the money you earn go.

Otherwise, I guarantee that he and you will become Lei Hu, Lan Gang, and Fei Bo for their meritorious service and awards. "

Yuan Hua swallowed after hearing this.

Although a killer agent like him may seem very powerful, in fact when faced with powerful people, he can be killed with just a flick of a finger.

Of course, if you are forced to become anxious and fight back, you might be able to die together.

However, Yuan Hua first did not receive the order to assassinate Lei Luo and others, and secondly, he became a killer manager. In the final analysis, it was just to make money.

He really didn't want to risk everything if it wasn't necessary.

Not to mention, hearing what Chu Xiangqian meant, besides wanting to recruit Tony, he even wanted to recruit himself, a bad old man.

Thinking of this, Yuan Hua immediately smiled kindly and said, "Boss Chu, what are the benefits of working with you?"

Chu Xiangqian said without hesitation, "A monthly salary of one thousand, or, after I buy your tenement building, I will leave it to you and that Thai guy to manage it.

The rent should be regarded as your salary. If you need to do something, the price will be calculated separately. "

Yuanhua chose the second condition without hesitation. With 20 yuan at hand, he would still receive the rent, so he would have no losses.

And with this 20 yuan, I can buy ten or eight small storefronts, and the rent will be more.

You can also have a big backer, but no fool would agree to such a good thing.

As for Tony, he was just a man who couldn't survive in his hometown in Thailand and relied on his powerful boxing and kicking skills to work out his life.

And it seems that the remuneration for doing things is high, but it is not stable enough.

In the long run, of course, doing things with the big boss will earn more.

Not to mention the extra money for doing things.

Chu Xiangqian asked Zhang Tianzhi to call the law firm and call Huang Weixin over. After signing the contract, he excused himself to go out and took 20 in cash and threw it to Yuan Hua.

Then he secretly said that the money was really useless, and he threw away 41 yuan in one day.

In the evening, Chu Xiangqian also saw Tony, and he was exactly the same as the Thai kung fu superstar Tony Jia in the real world.

"Boss, this is Tony," Yuan Hua explained with a smile, "This guy's Cantonese is not very good, but he has no problem speaking English."

Chu nodded forward, picked up a file bag from the table beside him, and threw it to Tony.

"It contains 5 Hong Kong dollars, which can be regarded as your settling expenses. Or, if you want to buy a house on Hong Kong Island, you can build a Muay Thai gym. However, it is best to build it on the Yau Ma Tei side, with Feibo protecting it. What kind of policeman would cause trouble for you?"

Tony took the portfolio and looked at Yuan Hua. When he saw him nodding slightly, he happily bowed to Chu and said, "Boss, from now on, my life will be yours."

Chu Qianqian smiled, he didn't really trust this Thai guy.

But spending money to make him a killer is indeed more reassuring than finding other murderers.

After all, some plots in the movie also show that this guy and Yuan Hua still have conscience and bottom line.

Chu pointed forward to the chair and said, "Sit."

Yuan Hua and Tony hurriedly sat down, finished their meal, and sent them off.

Not long after sitting down to drink tea, Sanjiang Shui walked in with Fei Bo with a smile.

After drinking tea for a while, Chu Xiangqian pointed to Sanjiangshui who had been standing behind him, and asked Fei Bo, "I want my senior brother to enter the police station as a plainclothes.

From now on, let him only take care of the business of my few stalls. If Brother Bo has his way, money is not a problem. "

Fei Bo was nervous at first, fearing that Chu Qianqian had other thoughts and even pushed Sanjiang Shui to replace him one day in the future.

Fortunately, after hearing the next few sentences, I immediately understood what Chu Xiangqian meant.

Glancing at Sanjiang Shui, who had a serious look on his face, Fei Bo secretly thought, this guy has a slippery tone and is not a good person at first glance.

Unexpectedly, he was so lucky that he and Chu Xiangqian had a relationship as senior brothers.

Then he thought, now that he is the Inspector of Yau Tsim Mong District, he really needs help from a few more people with background background.

And even if this kid has Chu Qianqian's support, he can at most be a small detective first, and then transfer to other major districts to become a big district detective when the opportunity is right.

After all, he had a good relationship with Chu Xiangqian, so there was no need for him to turn his friend into a mortal enemy.

In this way, not only would it not pose a threat to him, but to a certain extent, it would also help him and Chu Xiangqian deepen their relationship.

"It's not a big problem," Fei Bo said after thinking for a moment, "Tomorrow I will ask Daguying to take this brother to Lamma Island to go through the military uniform entry procedures.

Then write that he was recruited by the police station three months ago and became a local patrolman or coordinator.

Then ask my colleagues over there to help me with small feats such as catching a few thieves and finding a few lost cows and pigs.

There is enough reason to make an exception and accept him as a military uniform.

Once you have the identity of a military uniform, spending thousands of dollars means nothing.I transferred him here as a plainclothes officer, so no one can cause trouble with the rules.

After three to five months, let him go to Wong Chuk Hang for training for three months, and the last loophole will be closed.

Moreover, there has been a precedent for this kind of thing.

When my uncle was still Inspector Zonghua, I helped a fellow Chaozhou man handle this matter myself.It didn't take a month before he became a civilian.

Although it may be a little slower now, it's not a big problem. "

After hearing this, Chu Xiangqian immediately felt relieved. As long as someone had done it before, and with the current moral character of the Hong Kong police, as long as they were willing to pay, there would be no problem.

He hurriedly said to Sanjiang Shui, "Senior brother, why don't you serve tea to Brother Bo? From now on, you will be working for him and you must listen to Brother Bo just like you respect me."

Sanjiangshui came from a gangster background, and although he is not a very talkative person, he knows everything about the road and its rules.

He hurriedly poured a cup of tea and put his hands in front of Fei Bo, "Boss, I will rely on you to take care of me from now on."

Fei Bo waved his hands hurriedly, "No, Master Chu is your boss. I will call you if there is something good here, and you don't have to worry about other messy things. Just guard Master Chu's territory."

Sanjiang Shui smiled and secretly thought that good things like this can happen to him. When he has the opportunity to return to his hometown, he must kowtow in front of his ancestors.

"You must listen to what the big boss says, and you must also listen to what the detective says. Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I will not care about anything else except the big boss from now on."

Fei Bo felt relieved now and took the tea offered by Sanjiang Shui with a smile and drank it in one gulp.

"When you enter the plainclothes team, you will be in charge of the weather station from now on, and the fire station is not far from the weather station. I will let the military uniform team over there also be under your jurisdiction, basically it will not delay Master Chu's business." .”

Sanjiang Shui naturally had no reason not to agree, so he quickly poured Fei Bo another cup of tea.

Chu Qianqian also picked up his tea cup and toasted Fei Bo with Sanjiang Shui.

Then, Chu Xiangqian took out an envelope from his pocket and said, "Brother Bo, there is 5 yuan in it. If it's not enough, I'll ask Sanjiang Water to be delivered to you."

How could Fei Bo want this money?

Once the money is collected, the favor is basically returned.Besides, this matter is basically a matter of his own words.

Even if you have to do some planning, it will only cost you 5000 yuan.

He waved his hands hurriedly, "Master Chu, you helped me get the position of detective of Yau Tsim Mong District. You gave me such a great kindness just by saying it was a gift."

Now that you have something to do, and I still charge you, isn’t that a slap in the face? "

Chu Xiangqian shook his head with a smile and handed the envelope to Sanjiang Shui. "Brother, when you enter the police station, don't be stingy with your colleagues. The 5 yuan will be considered as a reward for letting you take care of my business."

Secondly, in addition to the fees, I hope you can learn more from Brother Bo and stop engaging in those crooked ways. "

Sanjiang Shui didn't dare to ask for the money at first, but after hearing what Chu Xiangqian said, he felt that if he didn't take it, wouldn't it be equivalent to telling his junior brother that he would definitely get something wrong?

After thinking for a while, he took it with both hands, "Don't worry, boss. From now on, there will never be plainclothes or military uniforms staring at poor people in my district, let alone selling flour or opening a gambling stall."

Chu Qianqian felt relieved and said to Fei Bo with a smile, "Brother Bo, wait until my market opens and the stores on the street next to the racecourse open.

I will ask my senior brother to hand over the dues to you personally. "

Fei Bo still wanted to refuse, but Chu Qianqian waved his hand, "If I don't hand over, it will be difficult for those of you who become detectives in the future. Besides, my senior brother and his future subordinates will also have to eat.

I see others receiving fees that are as much as their salary, or even two or three times more, but they don’t.

People's hearts are scattered, which is not a good thing for my business. "

After hearing this, Fei Bo gave Chu Qianqian a thumbs up, "Master Chu can see clearly that if we don't accept it, the club will still accept it.

But the club doesn’t follow the rules as well as we do.

And according to Leihu’s rules, our fees are half less than those of previous clubs. Otherwise, with so many bosses out there, how could it be so easy to give money on a monthly basis? "

Chu Qianqian laughed, but thought in his heart that the club could only charge ordinary people's fees, and a boss with some dignity would not ignore the club.

It can be seen that the police are not really kind-hearted, but they are a group that collects fees, which is much larger than the society.

Even the club has to pay obediently. Lei Huhu is not only smart, but also has a darker heart than the club.

So more than ten years later, when he and the other three detectives were investigated, no one in the whole society felt that the four detectives deserved sympathy.

It can be seen how much society hated Lei Luo and others at that time.

"Okay, okay, now that we've finished talking about the business, would you like some midnight snacks?"

Fei Bo chuckled and said, "Master Chu, if you have deer treasures, tiger whips or anything like that, give me some. If not, then I'll just go home and sleep."

Chu Qianqian laughed loudly and nodded towards Sanjiang Shui.

Not long after, the courageous Duan Hongchun and Sanjiang Shui came in personally carrying a large porcelain bowl.

As soon as you open it, you can see that there is stewed deer treasure with eight kinds of medicinal materials such as angelica and wolfberry inside.

Chu Xiangqian personally filled a bowl for Fei Bo, and then said to Sanjiang Shui, "Senior brother, go call Brother Zhi to come in. Let's eat something together and drink some rice wine."

Sanjiang Shui and Duan Hongchun naturally had no objections. After Zhang Tianzhi came in, he was also eager to give it a try.

For a martial arts practitioner like him, this kind of great tonic is a good thing that can only be found but not sought.

Therefore, you have to have money to practice martial arts, otherwise you won’t be able to eat enough meat, and you won’t be able to achieve anything good at the end of the training, but it will damage your body.

Chu Xiangqian ate a small bowl and put it down. He was not short of this food.

In addition, her physical fitness is 8.8 and her recovery power is super strong. Taking more of this great tonic is not enough for Feifei alone.

Seeing Fei Bo finishing his bowl, Chu Qianqian winked at the Sanjiang water.

Sanjiang Shui got up hurriedly and added a bowl to Fei Bo.

Later, when he wanted to give Chu Qianqian another bowl, Chu Qianqian hurriedly waved his hand, indicating that he would add a large spoonful to Zhang Tianzhi and Duan Hongchun.

Four strong men ate all the meat soup in a large porcelain bowl in just twenty minutes.

After everyone drank a few glasses of rice wine and chatted for a while, it was time to leave.

After seeing off Fei Bo, Chu Xiangqian planned to go back to the Peninsula Hotel to sleep, but Duan Hongchun asked hurriedly, "Chu Sheng, the 40 sika deer we ordered last time only have 8 left.

Do you think you are preparing another 60 heads? "

Chu Xiangqian was taken aback, "Sold so fast?"

Duan Hongchun chuckled, "In the first ten days, I basically had one meal a day. In the next half month, I started with two, and now, except for the venison dishes on the ten and eight tables in the evening.

There are basically four or five tables at noon. On some days, there are even more than 20 guests queuing up to order the whole deer feast.

If it's not that I'm really busy, I still have the spirit not to bore customers all at once.

In those days, even five or six heads a day were no problem. "

Chu Xiangqian was very satisfied with Duan Hongchun's sober mind.

He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll have 60 of them sent to the icehouse later."

"No, no need," Duan Hongchun hurriedly pointed to a three-story independent building only ten meters away from the restaurant.

"We discussed with the owner of the ice store, and he paid for the construction of a new ice store on our side. The first floor sells popsicles and cold drinks, and the second and third floors serve as warehouses.

Moreover, the two rooms on the south side of the second floor not only have cold storage, but also have an iron door that only I have the key to.

If I need venison in the future, I will go get it myself. "
