Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, I, the rice class leader

Chapter 272 Chapter 272: A strong young man makes a country strong!The bully in the Chinese world!
In one sentence, Uncle Chicken became a plague chicken.

After the meeting, everyone went back to their homes to start making arrangements!
"master."

After Lu Dachao returned from the meeting, he reported the situation to Gao Yao.

"The operation will last for three days. By then, Kowloon will definitely have clear and sunny skies."

Where did the sunny weather come from this year?It's nothing more than an excuse.

Lu Dachao talked about the contents of the meeting in detail, which naturally included Uncle Lao Ji from Temple Street.

Gao Yao seemed to have a vague impression of this name. After a moment, he remembered that it was the boss with the initials.

At that time, He Zitou made a promise to drive away loyalty and trustworthiness...

It is said to be super sharp!
He suddenly smiled: "It is said that many people will become stupid after becoming rich. It seems to be true."

It’s nothing more than virtue not matching its place.

If you suddenly become rich and mistake opportunities for abilities, you will naturally look a bit stupid. This is the case with Uncle Chicken.

The water house has been remodeled, and he still hides in Temple Street and smokes cigarettes to live the life of a local emperor. Other than that, he shows no sign of anything.

Just this slow reaction, return the Emperor of Temple Street?
It’s almost enough to beat the crowd!

"Are there any difficulties?"

Lu Dachao said respectfully: "With the master's reputation, people from all walks of life in the world will give him face."

The world of Hong Kong Island has not been resolved even in later generations. Gao Yao has no intention of changing this situation because he knows very well that the system and location of Hong Kong Island determine that the world is indispensable.

For example, if he is tall, if he doesn't have Zhongxinyi and the Chaozhou Gang, it will be difficult to do many things smoothly.

"Face is given by oneself."

Gao Yao said: "Dachao, the future path depends on how you go."

Lu Dachao was filled with gratitude. If it weren't for the master, where would he have gotten such a great avenue to the sky?

"Master, I will never let you down."

He then said: "Master, this is how the money is divided into this piece..."

Gao Yao waved his hand: "You decide matters in the world."

"You just need to remember that only when the interests are shared can the situation be controlled."

Hong Kong Island is now letting things go its own way, and whoever can control the world will have the strongest backbone.

Perhaps it has always been like this.

Lu Dachao nodded and reported: "Sir, Sir Lei previously divided the fees into five levels: 3, 2, 1, and 3.5. I think it is very reasonable."

Gao Yao sent Lu Dachao to take away Lei Luo's fruit, but this is normal, and you will get something if you give up.

There is no perfect choice in the world. Since Lei Luo wants to go further, he must give up something.

But in this case, with Lu Dachao taking charge of the overall situation, I wonder if Lei Luo can become Inspector Zonghua again...

"speak."

Gao Yao showed a hint of interest. This system is actually a tax collection system, which collects money that the Hong Kong government cannot collect through rules.

The difference is that the money will not go to the Financial Secretary, but will go into the pockets of bureaucrats and civil servants through secondary distribution.

This created a huge black gold empire.

Then when the empire collapses, another Independent Commission Against Corruption will be set up and a few representatives will be arrested to explain to all parties...

Historically, it should have appeared more than ten years later.

Gao Yao thought to himself that Lakzi might not be able to become a 5 million detective.

"Yes."

陆大潮细细说道：“不过我认为这其中应该细调一下，应该是3、1.5、1、0.5、3、1.”

He spoke eloquently: "3% of the fees are allocated to personnel above the director level."

This is tantamount to using it to get rid of the ghost guy.

"1.5 will be distributed to all detectives."

"As for these two 1s, 1% is given to all the assistants, and the other 1% is given to the master."

Gao Yao never thought that one day he would also collect illegal money. He waved his hand: "Take it from the people and use it for the people. When the time comes, the money will be transferred directly to the charity fund."

Lu Dachao's face was full of admiration: "Master is really kind-hearted."

Although it is only 1%, it is not a small amount. As long as the order is maintained in one day, it can flow steadily, enough to make people become rich.

Gao Yao didn't really want to collect this money. With his current development, how could he need to make such black money?
It's just that this set of order can only be established with the nod of someone high up. If he doesn't accept it, the people below will be panicked and it will be difficult to get things done.

Lu Dachao continued: "Half percent goes to the police chief."

"The remaining three points are given to all police officers in the district."

As for the secondary distribution, both the errands and the officials must be able to benefit from it. Only when the benefits are shared equally can the world be at peace.

"Very reasonable."

When Gao Yao first met Lei Luo, this guy was still illiterate, but now he can speak some Hong Kong English and can design the core logic that allows the money empire to operate.

What a talent!

Lu Dachao's face was full of joy. Now that the master agrees, then this rule can really run smoothly.

"Master, if nothing happens, I'll go down first."

Gao Yao nodded and said abruptly: "The fund is called Gao Sheng Charity Mutual Aid Fund."

"You go discuss it with Dahua and Asheng, and you will be in charge."

These three people are all stewards of the Gao family, and the meaning is obvious.

Lu Dachao bowed: "I know, Master."

As the conversation in Gao's study room ended, a thunderous anti-drug campaign was launched in Sham Shui Po, Tsim Sha Tsui and Yau Ma Tei.

Good guy, the momentum was so great that people who didn’t know it thought they were serious, and thought that Kowloon was really going to ban white powder.

As soon as the action was taken, everyone turned their attention.

Zhou Xinian came to the door by the way. He had Li Jiusheng and Lei Luo to inform him, so he naturally knew what had happened.

We also know that the so-called thunder crackdown on drugs is actually to clean up dissidents and then restore order.

However, Zhou Xinian thinks this set of rules is a bit whimsical.

"President Gao, I believe you should avoid arrogance and impatience when doing things."

Lei Luo and Gao Yao are completely different concepts.

For example, with Lei Luo's influence, he can only work in the Sham Shui Po area.

But Gaoyao?Didn’t you realize that as soon as someone took action, three major districts were following up and cooperating?

You must know that Lei Luo is actually just doing experiments, and the boat is small and easy to turn around.

Like Gao Yao, anything that happens is a big deal.

Zhou Xinian thought that at this time, it would be better to do less than to do more.

"Dr. Zhou, you have a heart, you have a heart."

Gao Yao laughed: "You didn't come here to talk to me about this, right?"

He wrote lightly: "Things on the ground are not worth discussing. Let them figure it out on their own."

How could Zhou Xinian come here because of this?

"President Gao, aren't you asking questions knowingly?"

Zhou Xinian said: "We have already had two verbal battles. If you ask me, everyone still values ​​peace."

He said earnestly: "After all, Westerners are in charge of the overall situation in Hong Kong Island. If you make others lose face too much, it will be difficult to end it."

"What's the deal?"

Zhou Xinian was stunned.

Gao Yao smiled and said, "I'm sorry."

"Doctor Zhou."

Gao Yao suddenly asked: "Do you still remember the "Bank Notes and Certificates of Indebtedness Ordinance"?

Speaking of this, Gao Yao and Zhou Xinian felt regret in their hearts.

As for Gao Yao, it was a pity that he traveled through time a few months later, otherwise he would have made a fortune last year.

As for Zhou Xinian, he deeply regretted that he was a little too nervous at that time. Otherwise, if he were just a little smarter, he would be a rich man now.

Yes, in 46, there was a legal and unprecedented opportunity to get rich in Hong Kong!

That’s the Hong Kong dollar!
During the Japanese colonial period, the Japs seized a large number of unissued banknotes without signatures from the HSBC warehouse. Without any deposit, they forced Qi Libin, the manager of HSBC at the time, to sign the banknotes to use them to send large amounts of money to mainland China and neighboring regions. Purchase supplies.

Although London had commissioned the National Government to announce publicly on the radio that it did not recognize the validity of these banknotes and to disclose the serial numbers of these banknotes to the public, these banknotes are still widely circulated on Hong Kong Island and neighboring areas.

According to statistics, during the three years and eight months of Japanese rule, the total number of HSBC banknotes issued under the control of the Japanese government reached 1.198 million Hong Kong dollars.

Man, that was more than 40 million Hong Kong dollars in the 1s.

After the restoration of Hong Kong Island, HSBC announced that it would not recognize all Japanese colonial-era HSBC banknotes with a face value of more than $10.

If the bank refuses to recognize it, will the money become useless paper?

有意思的来了，后来为保汇丰声誉和挽回港元信用，汇丰于1946年4月2日与临时军政府达成协议，宣布全力支持这批纸币的效力。这一点后来于1946年8月16日立法局通过的《银行纸币与负债证明书条例》再次得到确认。

According to the regulations, HSBC will inject 100 million pounds into the Exchange Fund, and the Hong Kong government will issue a certificate of indebtedness totaling HK$1.038 million to HSBC to guarantee the validity of these banknotes.

Please note that there is a window period before this announcement!During that blank period, some well-informed people purchased a large number of these Hong Kong dollars on the market at scrap paper prices!
Zhou Xinian was the well-informed person at that time. He said with a sad face: "Gao Sheng, can you not mention this in the future?"

Really, Zhou Xinian really regrets it. This money was delivered to him personally, but he didn't eat it...

then…

He even told the news to several friends without hesitation, and some of them made a fortune from it.

Of course, the sharpest one is Wang Kuancheng from the Ningbo Gang. Good guy, he used this to directly join HSBC and became a director and administrative director.

In later generations, why was Ship King so quickly favored by HSBC?
Damn, the boss of the Ningbo Gang is a shareholder of HSBC...

Gao Yao laughed. After all, Dr. Zhou was still a mortal body, and it was inevitable that he would have emotions and desires.

Immediately he said: "Dr. Zhou, so I think that everyone, whether they are Westerners or foreigners, has a rule, and this rule is power!"

The debt of HSBC was one of the reasons why foreign banks started slowly after the war. It was also because of this that banks opened by Chinese began to flourish.

"We follow the rules in everything."

Gao Yao said meaningfully: "HSBC can bow its head, how can a telephone company be bigger than HSBC?"

Although HSBC does not currently dominate the banking industry on Hong Kong Island, its influence can definitely rank among the top three in the financial industry.

At least every time the Hong Kong government holds a policy meeting, HSBC’s top team must be invited to attend the meeting.

But Xishi does not have this qualification!
How to compare?
Zhou Xinnian swallowed his saliva. At that time, HSBC was in a tough situation and had to accept this account.

It seems that Mr. Gao is trying to manipulate public opinion again.

Gao Yao suddenly smiled and said: "Dr. Zhou, you are not the scalpel of the telephone company, ready to help them solve their problems, are you?"

"Hahaha."

Zhou Xinian said categorically: "President Gao, I, Mr. Zhou, am also Chinese, so of course I am on your side."

He immediately added: "But then again, it won't look good on everyone if this continues."

"If you want me to say it, let's talk about it."

"sure."

Gao Yao said: "Talk to the judge."

"Don't say that."

Gao Yao said to Zhou Xi Nian affectionately: "You came just in time, I was about to go to find Lu Dunzhi."

"Just together."

Zhou Xinian thought that the Tuberculosis Prevention Society had not done much recently. It was just renovating the sanatorium and waiting for the nuns to arrive.

Oh, he remembered, Ruttonji and Gao Yao also had jobs at the same time, the Jardine Charitable Foundation?
Zhou Xinian's heart suddenly became hot. He didn't even bother to pay attention to the phone company, and immediately asked: "Mr. Jardine's permission?"

Gao Yao laughed: "Who doesn't know that Dr. Zhou is the most charitable person?"

"Yes, I would like to invite Dr. Zhou to join us."

"Unshirkable!"

What a joke, the name Jardine is almost tied to Hong Kong Island. If he can enter this charity fund, it will be of great help to Zhou Xinian.

Of course he was willing.

"Actually, I thought the Westerners from the phone company were going too far."

Zhou Xinian immediately changed the subject: "They really have to suffer a little."

Therefore, it is said that everyone in the world is interested in profit. Gao Yao, who has understood this early, knows very well that friendship is based on money and other benefits.

He immediately said: "Times have changed. If Westerners still stay in the past, they will naturally be eliminated."

The more he lives in this era, the more Gao Yao realizes that history really cannot be looked at carefully. If you look at it carefully, it is really men stealing and women prostituted, and plundering and plundering...

Just take Hong Kong Island. It started with smuggling and zero tariffs...

When Sir Robert Hurd was in charge of the customs service in the north, in order to help the weak government raise tariffs, he wanted to ban smuggling on Hong Kong Island. As a result, no one from the Hong Kong government to Jardine Matheson and other foreign companies would cooperate...

"Yes."

Speaking of this, Zhou Xinian has the best experience. The Zhou family has come a long way by working as a comprador and a magistrate.

It took at least half a century to reach the status of the Zhou family.

As a result, a young boy in this family became one of the four major families in half a year through robbery and threats.

Is it possible to let go of the past?

Times make heroes!

Speaking of this, Zhou Xinian thought about the Hong Kong dollar again, and his heart ached suddenly.

"I haven't congratulated President Gao on the establishment of the academy yet."

Zhou Xinian believed that the young man in front of him had already achieved perfection in flattery.

Look at others, through charity and education, the Governor of Hong Kong was directly achieved without saying a word to the telephone company.

In the past, with the urinary nature of the Governor's Mansion, he would have left the game early and started to take charge of the overall situation.

Of course Zhou Xinian didn't know that Mrs. Jian was behind this. After all, Grantham's wife was his best friend, and the pillow trend these days is still very powerful.

"From now on, the world will be filled with peaches and plums."

Gao Yao immediately laughed loudly. He is the permanent honorary principal of Grantham Education College. When the time comes, all the teachers who come out of it will be his students. Wouldn't that mean that the world will be filled with peaches and plums?
"It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to grow people."

Gao Yao's expression immediately became serious again, and he said to Zhou Xinian: "If Hong Kong Island wants to develop, it must first solve the education issue."

"A strong youth makes a country strong."

Gao Yao said earnestly: "Dr. Zhou, I think this is something that will benefit the future and benefit the future."

Zhou Xinian was a little moved when he heard this. In fact, when he was the president of the Chamber of Commerce, he often led members of the Chamber of Commerce to donate money, including donating to build schools.

It seems like it’s not enough, you have to work harder!
"President Gao."

Zhou Xinian gave a thumbs up: "What you have done is obvious to all. You are really the bully of us Chinese!"

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Gao Yao waved his hand: "Dr. Zhou, you are my idol."

"I will learn from you in the future."

The two of them chatted and laughed and arrived at Happy Valley.

That's right, gentlemen, the general place to meet is either a golf course or a racecourse.

The golf course in Fanling is really far away and the road is bumpy, so if people have something to do, they like to come to Happy Valley to watch the horse racing.

Speaking of which, someone like him has three horses here.

Ruttonji looked a little depressed when the two arrived.

Zhou Xinian knew Rutton Chi very well, and he immediately smiled and said: "Lost?"

Ruttonji sighed: "It's half a horse's head short."

Westerners like horse racing very much, perhaps because there is a game involved.

Ruttonji then said: "MR. Gao, why didn't I see you sending your horse to the field?"

"I heard your horse has a first-rate pedigree."

Gao Yao smiled and said: "I don't have time to be a jockey, so I'm going to find a professional."

At that time, most jockeys worked part-time, and some were horse owners who rode in person. Everyone mainly wanted to have fun.

It was also because of this that the Jockey Club at that time could barely maintain a balance of payments.

"I'm worse off."

Zhou Xinian said: "Originally Xian'er said she would come back and work as a jockey for me, but now she has to be a full-time housewife and she will never come out in public again."

"Should I go up by myself? My old bones will be broken to pieces."

"Now they can only be kept there as pigs."

The three laughed.

Ruttonji then said: "Dr. Zhou, Sir Jardine would like to invite you to join the Board of Directors of Jardine's Charitable Foundation."

Zhou Xinian said solemnly, "It's my pleasure."

"I will do my best for charity."

"Good."

Ruttonji then said: "Gentlemen, in two days' time, Sir Jardine will hold a charity dinner at the Peninsula Hotel."

"Attend on time."

Zhou Xinian wished he could come even if his leg was broken.

For Ruttonji, it was charity.

For Zhou Xinian, this is an opportunity to gain fame.

For Gao Yao, it was just a business.

One of the biggest uses of Jardine's Charitable Fund is to prevent Keswick from dominating Jardine. With this premise, Gao needs to be behind to acquire Jardine - the largest foreign company in Hong Kong Island!

That's right, Gao's purpose is not simple.

He came just for Yihe!

It's that simple!
