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

Xiangjiang is a very interesting place. It was colonized by the British during the Qing Dynasty, so it did not experience the Republic of China.

Its laws and regulations have always coexisted with Qing laws and Western laws.

Therefore, Xiangjiang is feudal and free, but has no democracy.

This is one of the reasons why people at that time regarded Xiangjiang as a retreat.

The Zhang family is such a feudal yet free family.

In the 20th century, the Zhang family actually emphasized living together and sharing wealth!

The Zhang family has four bedrooms. His mother, Zhang Guogeng, and his eldest brothers, Zhang Yujie and Zhang Yulin, are married. Together with the third and fourth bedrooms, there are more than ten people in the family. As a result, these people are all crowded on the second floor of No. 4 Macdonald Road. In the house!

You must know that the European Coast Company under the Zhang family holds the wholesale rights for P·A·S Fei Tablets, penicillin and other Western medicines.

Before Lianhe and Gaoyao got involved, it occupied nearly half of the wholesale market on Hong Kong Island.

The money he makes makes his eyes red, and he is completely capable of building a big house.

It's basically like begging for food from a golden bowl and making a jade bed on the floor.

The most outrageous thing is that Zhang Guogeng stipulates that the Zhang family is never allowed to open a small stove outside, and if there are guests for a banquet, they must report it in advance.

This is also the reason why Zhang Yujie called his wife immediately after seeing Liang Chang.

Anyone who has been in contact with the Zhang family knows that everyone in the Zhang family is a lonely ghost, and they are all gluttons...

This is also the reason why Liang Changhui teased Zhang Yujie.

“Sand becomes a tower, and armpits become fur.”

Zhang Yujie handed over the tea cup with a gentle smile: "Brother Chang, you are born to be blessed, framed by gold and silver."

"As a small family, we naturally have to be more frugal."

"Okay, okay, okay, it's not my fault."

Liang Chang laughed. He took the tea cup and took a sip: "I made a fool of myself in front of the ghost man today. My face almost became swollen from laughing."

Zhang Yujie just looked at Liang Chang with a smile.

The two became friends during the war years.

At that time, Liang Chang was the stationmaster of the British Army Service Corps' Haojiang Station, and his apparent covert identity was Storen.

Coincidentally, the Zhang family also opened a Zhang Jinji in Haojiang at that time.

On the surface, they were all working together, and Haojiang was a small place, so the two got to know each other, and then started smuggling Western medicine and made a fortune.

They knew each other too well.

Liang Chang could only sigh. He put the tea cup in his hand on the low table, and then solemnly said: "Brother, I am looking for you to make a fortune."

"Brother Chang, you know me."

Zhang Yujie said calmly: "With great wealth comes great risk."

"You tell me and I will think about it myself."

At the earliest stage, the Zhang family's arrangement for Zhang Yujie was to go to work in a foreign bank and follow the path of He Dong and others.

As a result, Zhang's father suddenly passed away, and Zhang Yujie had to drop out of school to take over the Zhang family's property.

The Zhang family was not wealthy at that time, and Zhang Jinji was almost bankrupt.

In order to unite and prove that the Zhang family is promising, the family, under the leadership of Zhang Guogeng, set rules in front of Zhang's father's tablet: be diligent, be thrifty, live together and share wealth!

After arriving in Hong Kong, the Zhang family added a lot of family rules. These family rules were all written on gold-sprinkled red paper, and then framed with plaques and hung on the wall of the ancestral hall.

There is only one core point, make money!

In order to achieve this goal, the Zhang family did their best to be businessmen!

Liang Chang said: "I was entrusted by someone to slay a powerful dragon."

He raised his eyebrows: "Master of the Gao family!"

There are many people with the surname Gao in Hong Kong, but now as long as we talk about the Gao family, everyone knows that it must be the Gao family on Taiping Mountain - Dr. Gao!

Zhang Yujie's face trembled heavily, and he murmured: "It is indeed a huge risk."

The last person who had a problem with the Gao family was the Li family, one of the four major families. Then the head of the Li family, Li Minze, suddenly died in an ambush. The entire Li family was beaten to hell and expelled from Hong Kong Island.

It was so thrilling that Zhang Yujie would often wake up in the middle of the night dripping with sweat.

Why?

Of course it was because of what he did during the war.

Since he started smuggling Western medicine, Zhang Yujie has rarely gone out alone, and when he is alone, there must be a wall behind him!

Even at home!

He now sleeps alone at home, and he must put his bed against the door!

Sometimes Zhang Yujie will ask himself, if what he has done is known to someone Gao, will Dr. Gao, who is known as a gentleman, treat him like he expelled the Li family?

Every time he thought of this, he tossed and turned.

Especially after learning that Dr. Gao also had access to penicillin, Zhang Yujie often suffered from insomnia.

Liang Chang saw it clearly and chuckled in his heart.

With the Zhang family's behavior and Gao Yao's involvement in Penicillin, there is the most direct conflict of interest with the Zhang family.

I really didn’t find the wrong person!

He directly said: "The service corps, confidentiality bureau, etc. will all participate."

"It's just that we're missing a local gangster, and we're asking you to join the Wuyi Gang."

Zhang Yujie spoke: "Brother Chang, do you know the interests of the Gao family?"

"I know, how come I don't know?"

Liang Chang smiled and said: "Since I came back, three out of ten sentences spoken by others are inseparable from Dr. Gao."

"Why don't you know? They are the new four major families."

"Then do you know that Dr. Gao is different from others?"

Zhang Yujie said: "Mr. He (He Dong) and others have always cherished feathers, so they only use money to drive the association."

"Unlike Dr. Gao, he directly sends butlers to Jianghu to take charge of the society."

"Now there is almost no such thing as a Chaozhou gang, a Dongguan gang, or a Hakka gang in Kowloon."

Zhang Yujie sighed, Liang Chang really found himself a huge problem.

"Now there is only the Gao Family Gang in Kowloon!"

Of course, people in the market wouldn't say this. People like Zhang Yujie would say this.

"sharp."

Liang Chang marveled: "To be honest, I still admire the sharpness of this young boy."

Zhang Yujie nodded: "I dare not say it in other places, but in Kowloon, Dr. Gao's words are definitely more effective than the Governor of Hong Kong."

Liang Chang's expression did not change.

Zhang Yujie's heart became even heavier. He thought about it and said, "I know that Brother Chang is a person who has stepped out of artillery fire. He is not afraid of anything."

"Something that makes you come out and do things that you can't refuse..."

Zhang Yujie said: "We here in Xiangjiang, maybe Mr. He has this ability."

Liang Chang smiled: "Mr. He cherishes feathers now and only wants to leave a good name behind him. He will never do this kind of thing again."

It turns out that he had tried it before Zhang Yujie!

Zhang Yujie was immediately clear. It seemed that this matter had to be done, and Liang Chang had also found many people.

He thought to himself that during the war, Liang Chang had formed many relationships.

They should all be used by now.

"The older generation in Xiangjiang are powerless, and the younger generation either only follow the doctor's lead, or they are submissive."

Liang Chang laughed: "I don't think so. I'm afraid the person standing in front of me won't look down on him."

Zhang Yujie did not laugh, he said calmly: "In that case, the person who gave Brother Chang the instructions must be from Haojiang."

"King Fu Du? Or Little Luo Bao? Or both?"

Zhang Yujie has not cooperated with Liang Chang once or twice. He knew Liang Chang's main business, so he followed up: "I heard that the doctor started buying real estate in Haojiang this year, and was involved in smuggling gold and many other transactions."

"With the doctor's strength, he will definitely squeeze out the gambling king and Luo Bao's share in gold smuggling."

Zhang Yujie immediately concluded: "It seems that Brother Chang is under the instruction of King Gambling and Dr. Luo Bao?"

Quickly and skillfully, he had guessed most of them. Liang Chang applauded: "That's why I came to Yujie because I know that you can definitely help!"

"The gambling king promises that after everything is done, he will help you contact a Western medicine company in Portugal and help you underwrite it."

"If it's not enough, I'll count you a share of the gold business."

Zhang Yujie was not tempted. The Zhang family did dare to do whatever they wanted as merchants for the sake of profit, but they also had to consider the risk and reward ratio!

He only thought for 3 seconds and then immediately shook his head: "Brother Chang, I won't participate."

Liang Chang smiled and said: "Yu Jie, you know me. If I open my mouth, I will be sure to get you to agree."

"Brother Chang."

Zhang Yujie said sincerely: "If you had come a few days earlier, I might have agreed."

"It's really not possible now."

Liang Chang was stunned: "It seems there is something I don't know about?"

"A few days ago, the detective Yao Mu invited the blind loyal emperor of Xihuan to go boating in Victoria."

Liang Chang listened very seriously. He was very familiar with Yao Mu. This detective had both real ability and tough tactics.

Westerners have great trust in them solely because of their ability.

The most important thing is that Yao Mu himself is very strong!

Before the war, Yao Mu was able to solve crimes very quickly. The main reason was that he was able to cooperate with all the societies in Hong Kong to hand over...

And that blind loyalty...

In the early years, he was also a famous figure in the world.

As a result, these two people went boating on the sea together?

"When they came back, the leader of the blind loyalists led He Hetu to join an organization called the Guangfu Workers' Self-Help Association."

Liang Chang frowned, the name seemed familiar.

"Hehetu was called a workers' self-help meeting at the earliest."

Liang Chang suddenly realized that at that time, a total of 12 gangs joined the workers' self-help association, which was a trade union alliance. Due to the suppression by the Hong Kong government, it was later converted into a registered society.

It’s the beginning of a community in Hong Kong!

"What other gangs are there?"

Zhang Yujie said nothing.

Liang Chang's thoughts changed rapidly and he lost his voice: "Is it someone Gao who did it?"

Zhang Yujie then nodded: "The main members of the Guangfu Workers' Self-Help Association are Fu Yixing, Xinji, He Liansheng, He Anle, He Lihe, He Hongsheng, He Qunying, He Yongyi, Shuifang, Lianyingshe, Lianyingshe, and Gongle, Hongxing, Tongxinhe, Xintongle, Guangdong, Majiaozi..."

It's hard for him to remember even one of them.

Liang Chang murmured: "The four major gangs of Wuyi, Chaozhou, Dongguan and Hakka will be wiped out in one fell swoop."

There are 200 million people in Hong Kong, at least 180 million of whom are from the Greater Guangfu area, of which Wuyi, Chaozhou, Dongguan and Hakka are the representatives.

Mastering these four pieces is equivalent to holding the life gate of Hong Kong Island.

Liang Chang finally understood why Zhang Yujie said this.

"Brother Chang."

Zhang Yujie said sincerely: "I'll tolerate the calm for a while."

"Doctor, the sun is rising now. It should be shining brightly. How can it resist it?"

Liang Chang's channel made Zhang Yujie a lot of money. He really didn't want to lose this important partner, so he advised: "No matter how aggressive the gambling king is, he will be unhappy at most. There is really no need."

In all the years in Hong Kong Island, I have never heard of anyone being able to be prosperous for decades.

Even people like He Dong, who was once the richest man in Southern Province, kept a low profile after that because of the general strike in the province and Hong Kong.

Take Luo Xuhe, for example, he was awarded the knighthood by King George VI in 1938. Now he has the reputation of being a traitor and is closed to the public.

Zhang Yujie means to look at the future.

Liang Chang let out a long sigh: "When you are in the arena, you can't help yourself."

Zhang Yujie's color suddenly changed and he knocked the bell on the table.

A young man with short hair rushed in urgently.

"Look outside and see if there are any nails."

As he spoke, he said to Liang Chang: "Brother Chang, you don't know something."

"The doctor has eyes and ears all over Hong Kong and Kowloon. If you take action, he may have noticed it."

Zhang Yujie said meaningfully: "The doctor's methods are unambiguous!"

Liang Chang immediately frowned: "Jade steps, is this a bit of a fuss?"

"I don't believe it. Back then, Luobotou used military police to inspect Hong Kong and Kowloon. He also had a pass. I, Mr. Liang, could still come and go freely."

"Can this person be more ruthless than Carrot Head?"

People always change.

Zhang Yujie thought to himself that back then, there were various associations to protect you, and Luobotou also needed the help of some associations to maintain public order, so you were able to walk easily.

What time is it now?

Most organizations rely on the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce and the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce for food. If Gao Gao makes a single word, many people will lose their jobs.

Who is willing to offend Dr. Gao for you?

While he was talking, the young man rushed in again: "President, there are a few more people from Hehetu outside."

"They don't eat here."

We mentioned Hehetu earlier, but now it appears next to European Coast Company?

The young man had already made it very clear, and Liang Chang immediately became wary. He did not think that the people in Hehetu were here to reminisce about the past.

What's more, even if we want to reminisce about the past, it can't be just a few pawns.

"Go arrange the truck."

Zhang Yujie said to Liang Chang: "Brother Chang, take off your coat."

This is a plan to escape the golden cicada!

"Dry!"

Liang Chang slapped the table in frustration: "This is simply unreasonable."

After so many years, he has always been the only one who has let others run wild, but today it is his turn?

Originally, Liang Chang wanted to show off the strength of his alliance to Zhang Yujie, but now that he was being targeted, he naturally couldn't mention it.

"Wait until I pass this level."

Liang Chang took off his coat while speaking: "Yu Jie, if Brother Chang has it, you will definitely have it."

"The eighty-year-old woman is ruined."

Liang Chang laughed at himself, then threw his coat to the young man who stood quietly: "It's a joke."

He came from an intelligence background and made a fortune from intelligence.

As a result, someone discovered the flaw during the collusion, and it was indeed a big joke.

Then again, who would have thought that the first thing Gao would do after he got rich was to spend a lot of money to build a public relations department and set up security agencies all over the world?

Most people don't have this idea...

"I'm afraid it will implicate you."

Zhang Yujie smiled slightly: "Brother Chang, don't worry. Although the doctor is ruthless, he is very disciplined."

"I'm just hosting friends, and everyone will help me speak up."

Zhang Yujie went to great lengths to seek profit in private and dared to do anything.

But these things were not exposed.

On the contrary, because of the Fei Pian, its reputation among the people is quite good...

Zhang Yujie saw that Gao Gao had a good reputation for caring for feathers, and he believed that Gao Gao would never touch him.

Especially when it unites the Wuyi Gang.

Liang Chang nodded slightly: "My brother, I understand."

"He won't be this good all his life."

Liang Chang's fighting spirit ignited in his heart: "Labour and management can even compete with Carrot Head, how can we still be afraid of him?" (End of Chapter)
