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

The rules are indeed not like this. If possible, when the Li family leaves Hong Kong Island, Gao Yao will definitely want to take the Li family to see the Sea Dragon King.

As the saying goes, if you cut the grass without removing the root, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows.

Unfortunately not!

As mentioned before, Hong Kong and Kowloon are actually three worlds, Hong Kong Island - Kowloon - New Territories!

Among them, Hong Kong Island and Kowloon were ceded to Great Britain by the useless Tatars (of course, we firmly deny or allow it). Only the New Territories were expressly leased until 1997.

It seems that Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are one. In fact, in the eyes of Westerners, Hong Kong Island is the base camp.

All the wealth is gathered on this island.

At that time, when Gao Yao launched a parade on the island, Westerners were very taboo, very fearful and very angry!

Because this scene easily reminds them of the Peace Washing in 1941!

After the Japs occupied the New Territories and Kowloon, the fifth column they organized took advantage of the situation and looted, burned, killed and raped like hungry wolves, and made a lot of money from the war.

Across the sea, a group of triads on Hong Kong Island were preparing to riot in the urban area, shouting slogans of "Kill all the foreigners" and "Anti-British uprising", hoping to clear the peace!

The plan is to start from Central and attack the top of the mountain, bloodbath the European residences, and clear out the evil spirit that has been oppressed by the ghosts for hundreds of years.

Not to mention, if this had been done at that time, the layout of Hong Kong Island might have been completely different...

When the then police superintendent Xiu Fudun (yes, Yao Mu's old superior) learned about this, he was so scared that his legs were trembling. He immediately went to negotiate with the chief's supervisor, but could not reach an agreement, so he had to change the direction and destroy the Democratic Party stationed in the police station. Hong Kong Commander General Chen Ce asked for help.

After moving out of Hongmen, hundreds of cousins ​​negotiated with Xiu Futon and Police Commissioner Yu Yunshi in the lobby of Sihao Hotel. They argued and cursed for several hours, and finally reached an agreement that the Hong Kong government would pay 66,660 yuan. With the "safety fee" of 100 Hong Kong dollars, the gangster collected the money and stopped the team. Only then did the ghost man avoid this military disaster.

At that time, it was not easy for Gao Yao to coerce the general situation and force Gui Lao to acquiesce in driving the Li family out of Hong Kong Island. If something happened to the Li family after leaving, even Gui Lao and those who had previously served in the Chinese People's Association during the Japanese occupation This vote of people will be very opinionated.

Not good for unity!

The most important thing is that Gao Yao knew that quite a few of the people at that time were actually instructed by Gui Lao to cooperate with the carrots...

Lu Dachao has been ordered to leave, but Gao Jin remains the same.

"Big brother."

A seafood boat floated on the sea.

At that time, there were many small boats like this in Causeway Bay. Every night when the lights came on, the boat owners would wave to the guests on the shore and row the guests to the sea not far away. There were all kinds of noodle boats, seafood boats, fruit boats, and singing boats. .

There are also graceful and charming boat girls, eating the top and bottom, and interpreting a romantic style that is very different from that on land.

The seafood boat is not unusual, but what is strange is that the person standing at the bow is Yao Mu!

Gao Jin, who had sharp eyes, could see clearly at a glance: "Yao Mu is here."

Gao Yao smiled and said to Gao Jin: "A Jin, our career cannot be separated from the help of the police force."

In Hong Kong Island, the police are soldiers!

Gao Jin nodded heavily. He understood what Gao Yao meant: "Brother, I will drink tea with Sir Yao from time to time."

Gao Yao patted Gao Jin on the shoulder: "Gui Lao never trusts us and is always wary of us, so we must rely on ourselves and unite more people."

Just like the police, why do plainclothes people have such authority?

Because they have iron in their waists and guns.

The military uniforms don't have guns, so they can't shake.

The cause of this is of course Gui Lao!

At that time, the slogans of expelling the Tartars were loud, and the ghosts were also afraid. What if the Chinese police rebelled? Therefore, Morocha can walk around on the street with a long gun. Although the Chinese police also have simple shooting training, they are only equipped with batons that are neither long nor short on weekdays. They are not allowed to patrol in the middle of the mountain where foreigners live. The superficial reason is that they are not familiar with it. English, but in fact it is because they are not trusted by ghosts.

Gao Jin whistled into the distance, then waved his hand, and the seafood boat slowly approached.

As soon as the seafood boat approached, Yao Mu jumped onto the shore. He was as powerful as a tiger and his eyes were bright: "President! President Gao!"

Yao Mu cupped his hands and said, "I've invited you over."

"On the boat."

The seafood boat is actually the same as the flower boat on the Qinhuai River. The boat is quite large and can definitely accommodate dozens of people.

Gao Yao smiled and patted Yao Mu on the shoulder: "Okay, meet the old man."

The triads on Hong Kong Island originated from the rebellion against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. Everyone dreamed of being an emperor, and they also had great titles for civil servants and generals.

For example, Gao Yao is now honored as the Emperor of Kowloon!

Everyone knows it and everyone respects it!

But before him, there was another king of the world who was admired by people from all walks of life in Hong Kong - Blind Loyalty!

Blind Chung's original name was Lai Wenxing, also known as Lai Chung Lai Chung, a native of Dongguan. His mother was a doctor of orthopedics. After her husband died, she took her son to Hong Kong Island to practice medicine. His medical clinic was located next to the martial arts school.

Lai Zhong has learned martial arts from a martial arts school since he was a child. He loves to fight bravely and is best at "playing chicken feet".

When he was studying at Diocesan Elementary School, he had a fight with his classmates, one against seven, and his left eye was half-blinded by his opponent's pencil. After that, he simply wandered around the world and was known as "Blind Loyalty."

It was difficult to start work at that time, and only those who joined the Guli Pavilion worked as coolies to earn food. From then on, blind loyalty began to officially enter the world.

At the end of 1883, the Qing government fought a battle with the French Far East Fleet for the sake of Annan, but was defeated steadily and almost even the treasure island was lost.

In early October of the following year, a French cargo ship docked at Sai Ying Pun Pier, and Gui Lao was arrogant.

Suddenly, a moving worker was so indignant that he shouted: "Down with the French ghosts! The French ghosts have invaded China, and we will not unload the goods for the French ghosts!"

For a time, the public sentiment was raging, and the coolies who were united were unwilling to unload the French cargo ships. The boat owner became anxious and called the marine police.

At that time, the main force of the marine police was Belarusians. These guys arrested several workers without saying a word. The reason was that according to the Merchant Shipping Regulations, it was illegal for dock workers to refuse to transport goods.

Not to mention, in the era of sheep eating people, there was indeed such a regulation that it was illegal not to go to work...

Later, the police took over and directly forced the coolies at gunpoint to return to the dock to start work.

People have to lower their heads under the eaves, but it is still possible to work as a foreigner.

On weekdays, I can carry two bags of rice by myself during this hard work, but now I am out of breath after carrying only one bag, which seriously delays the progress of the merchant ship's cargo transportation.

As a result, this group of policemen saw that something was wrong and could not deal with Gui Lao, so they invited people from the "Wan'an Society" from Cheung Chau, Shau Kei Wan and other districts to come to rescue and move goods.

As an aside, this Wan'an Society is the earliest Chaozhou Gang...

The Wan'an Society was established during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty by Chaozhou people. It was originally a mutual-aid civil society, mainly composed of coolies, and was later introduced to Hong Kong Island.

When they came to Hong Kong, wharves such as Sai Ying Pun were occupied by coolies from Dongguan, Wuyi and other places, so that they could go to Cheung Chau, Shau Kei Wan and other places to find food.

In 1919, the leader of the Man On Society passed away. In 1921, some members of the Man On Society broke away from the society and established the Ngee Ann Society. In 1921, the Ngee Ann Society was registered as a legal organization in the name of the Ngee Ann Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

In 1947, because Chiang Kai-shek claimed to be the head of the "Taipingshan Yi'an Hall", he was ordered to declare allegiance to the government of the Republic of China with Ge Zhaohuang, the first head of the "Hongmen Zhongyi Hall" (the "Fourteen K") in Wuyangcheng, and at the same time became The head of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of China and was awarded the rank of Major General by Chang Kaishen. The Hong Kong government hates triads engaging in politics the most, and it is no longer ambiguous at the moment. It directly banned Ngee Ann. Chiang Kai-shek used an excuse to re-register the company, renamed the Ngee Ann Chamber of Commerce and Industry as New Ngee Ann, and took sole power. This was the beginning of Xinji!

This is beside the point!

At that time, the docks in the Sai Ying Pun area had the largest unloading volume and the largest amount of oil and water. The Teochew boys were all greedy for it, and the Wan On Society was coming in force.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Blind Loyalty, who already had some prestige in the world at that time, urgently summoned the leaders of the Guru Hall to discuss countermeasures.

The location discussed at that time was the Hutchison Inn in Central.

At that time, in addition to Blind Loyalty, there were 12 other people, including Ma Liuwang, Fang Wanzai, Poupimei, Big Eyes Sheng, Jian Bushai, Latsai, Yuan Tuotuo, Mr. Duo, Xiao Zai Zhou, and Bian Tatta. , Hunchback Hua, Bengya Cai.

These 13 people took the meaning of "peaceful unity and great ambition" and coincided with the national ambition of "jointly plotting against the Qing Dynasty", so they named this workers' self-help gang Hetu!

Blind Loyalty was chosen as the first leader!

Once united, it’s time to counterattack!

Under the leadership of 13 people including Blind Zhong, Hetu actually fought several bloody and bloody battles with Wan'an Society and other societies that had made trouble, and finally managed to regain the dock. This is where the Hetu sign started!

Blind Loyalty was respectfully called "Emperor" by people in the world. He was 17 years old at the time!

He is the most outstanding young hero in the world!

The 12 generals who formed a bloody alliance around him were called the "Twelve Twelve Imperial Uncles".

The establishment of Hetu had far-reaching influence. Subsequently, the Legislative Council (now the Legislative Council) passed the "Triads and Unlawful Groups Ordinance No. 1845" to replace the Ordinance.

The new regulations stipulate that all workers' organizations are illegal groups and should be banned and punished with heavier penalties.

At the same time, the Ordinance also authorizes the police and justices of the peace to enter any house or place suspected of being holding an illegal assembly at any time and arrest all participants.

The triads in Hong Kong Island thus separated from the trade unions and became an independent force!

Other Chaozhou Gang, Guangdong Gang, Wuyi Gang, Hakka Gang, etc. also followed suit!

The great man said it well, but the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty were slightly less talented in literature; the Tang Zong and Song Zu were slightly less elegant...

Counting famous people, let’s look at the present!

In Gaoyao's eyes, Blind Loyalty is already a deceased romantic figure in the world, and his biggest role now is to pave the way for Yao Mu.

Yes, this is the reason why Gao Yao came to Tsim Sha Tsui Pier for a walk after the meeting.

Dr. Gao is really busy!

Blind Loyalty has been out of the world for a long time. He is eighty-one years old. At present, that is an absolute longevity.

He was called Blind Loyalty back then because he got into a fight when he was in school and his left eye was half-blinded by his opponent with a pencil. From then on, his eyes became a thin line as a habit, so he got the nickname Blind Loyalty.

Now that he is old and close to blindness, he likes to sit in the "Hehe Herbal Tea Shop" on Dawang East Street in the morning and evening, drinking tea, listening to music and playing mahjong.

This herbal tea shop is a branch of He He Tu set up in Wan Chai just to accommodate this old man.

After all, the old generation's world has withered away, and only the legend of Blind Loyalty is still alive.

"emperor!"

Yao Mu's voice was a bit loud: "Dr. Gao is here! And Mr. Gao from Sihai Security!"

He then explained to Gao Yao: "The old man is old, and his eyes and ears are not very good."

Gao Yao nodded with a smile. Time is a hero's biggest enemy. This is a natural thing.

Standing next to Blind Zhong was a little boy with a tiger-like head and a thick head. He looked about 10 years old.

Upon hearing this, the little boy shouted to Blind Zhong: "Grandpa, Dr. Gao and Mr. Gao from Sihai Security are here."

He spoke clearly and spoke clearly.

The blind loyalist habitually narrowed his eyes into a straight line, and then stood up tremblingly: "Dr. Gao."

Gao Yao quickly stepped forward and took Blind Zhong's right hand: "Old man, please sit down, please sit down."

"Why don't you come a long way?"

The little boy retells.

Blind Loyalty said with a smile: "Although I can't see well or hear clearly, I have been sailing on rivers and lakes all my life, and I can still withstand some wind and waves."

Gao Yao suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, since we are here to get food, strong winds and waves are common, and the old man has unparalleled character."

Jianghu is different. When Yu Blind Zhong was in charge, they were not called triads, but workers' self-help gangs.

The main purpose is to protect workers who start working for food.

"Sir Yao often told me that the old man made great contributions to stabilizing Hong Kong Island after the war."

"The neighbors remember it."

Gao Yao said: "This time, I have to work hard for the emperor to be in charge."

Earlier, coolies used fists, knives and sticks to fight each other.

It was different after the war. At that time, tens of thousands of people went south to Hong Kong Island every day. The war against Japan was over, but the war in the Jianghu area was barely starting.

The old banners were re-established in the old hall, and new houses were established in the new hall. Everyone was grabbing land and recruiting people. At that time, Hong Kong Island was full of weapons left by the Japanese soldiers, such as Type 26 rifles, Type 96 light machine guns, and Type 99 guns. Grenades, Molotov cocktails, etc.

A considerable number of these are living in the world.

At that time, Gui Lao had not yet established a military government, and the market was in chaos. Whoever had a big fist had a loud voice. Of course, these people in the world were not polite at all.

The gunfire rang from Sai Ying Pun to Causeway Bay, then across the sea to Kowloon, and then to Kowloon Walled City.

Good guy, it’s like a war!

As the saying goes, heroes emerge in troubled times. Heroes can save the world, and they can even save themselves.

At that time, Yao Mu had just returned to Hong Kong Island from Chaozhou. He had not worked for the Japanese during the war, and he had a good character and was favored by the ghosts. He was assigned to the name of Detective Deputy Inspector Six, and together he was responsible for maintaining and rebuilding order on Hong Kong Island.

At that time, Hong Kong Island was the Prime Minister of the Six Nations, and Gui Lao was so anxious that he broke into a sweat.

It was Yao Mu who saw the situation. On the one hand, he led his team to capture the thieves, and on the other hand, he allowed all the gangs to fight with each other.

After only two or three Tangkou from each region were left, Yao Mu did two more things.

One is to ask Sikes to petition the military government for cooperation, and the other is to go to the Wo Hop Herbal Tea Shop on Tai Wong Street East in Wan Chai to invite blind loyalists to preside over the Hongmen Conference!

At that time, Yao Mu made it very clear to these big guys that killing was just to make a fortune, but getting rich does not necessarily involve killing.

Either everyone can continue to fight, knock out the dog's brains, and the police officer will watch from the side, and then choose a big winner.

Either everyone quits now and everyone becomes a big winner!

From then on, the security of Hong Kong Island began to return to normal. Although the fights in the world continued, they began to use less firearms and returned to fists and watermelon knives.

This is enough for the Hong Kong government, and it is certainly enough for the general public.

That's why Gao Yao talked about being blindly loyal to maintain order after the war! (End of chapter)
