Started from Hong Kong Island

Chapter 18 018 [Unexpected]

Li Wendi glanced at Wei Renwei and said with a smile, "We all know what Inspector Lin said. I hope Inspector Lin will give us some face."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Jianmin interrupted with a grim smile and said, "Face? Do you want to intimidate the police officers?"

Snapped!
Lin Jianmin pulled out a revolver from his waist, slapped it on the table, and continued, "If you want face, you have to ask it if it will give it to you?"

Li Wendi, who has lived two lifetimes, saw a real gun for the first time. He would be lying if he said he was not afraid, but he was not panicked. He took a deep breath and said, "Inspector, the two of us are just errand boys. The people above make the decisions."

When watching the movie in his previous life, Li Wendi thought it was somewhat exaggerated, but now it seems to be a true portrayal.

In today's world, those with licenses are naturally more arrogant than those without licenses.

It would be very troublesome if Lin Jianmin killed Li Wendi, but if Li Wendi killed Lin Jianmin, he would definitely be dead. As for those who fled to Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand, Li Wendi didn't think he could bear it, and he still had family.

"Hmph! The previous premium of 30% is not enough. Now it must be 50%. You all know the consequences of one point less." Lin Jianmin no longer tolerated it. He was also used to being domineering.

Li Wendi could only nod. After all, there was no need to be threatened again, and the money was not paid by him.

"Okay, I'll convey the inspector's words. Bye bye!" Li Wendi quickly stood up and left.

On the contrary, Wei Renwei was much calmer than Li Wendi. It might be that Wei Renwei was used to such scenes. However, Wei Renwei allowed the situation to deteriorate, obviously with ulterior motives.

"Brother-in-law, you are really the best. Only you can control these gangsters." Hong Lei glanced at Li Wendi's leaving back and flattered Lin Jianmin in a neither loud nor soft voice.

Li Wendi and Wei Renwei naturally heard it, but they did not stop at all.

"Hmph! They're just a bunch of gangsters, what are you afraid of? It's okay for them to bully the lower-class citizens, but if they dare to bully me, I'll shoot them to death." Lin Jianmin said with a sneer, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

Li Wendi's face was as cold as ice, but he could do nothing about Lin Jianmin. Lin Jianmin had a gun and an official identity, so killing him would still be a big deal and extremely undesirable.

"What are you going to do? Young Master Deng said he can only contribute 10%." Wei Renwei asked in a deep voice.

After Li Wendi calmed down a little, he realized that Wei Renwei had some evil intentions and wanted to see him in trouble and take the opportunity to seize the position of the boss. However, it was not advisable to do anything at this time and he had to deal with the current matter first.

"Tell me the truth. If Wei Ge is willing to pay the money, I think Uncle Deng will definitely look at him differently." Li Wendi took the opportunity to test him.

Wei Renwei smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Where would I get so much money? And this will definitely not be the only time."

After leaving the teahouse, Li Wendi found a public telephone booth, called Deng Jiaren, and told him everything that had happened.

I heard Deng Jiaren hung up the phone angrily. I don’t know whether it was because Li Wendi was incompetent or because Lin Jianmin didn’t give him face.

The two broke up and left. Li Wendi did not go back to the clothing store directly. Instead, she found a quiet cafe, ordered a cake and a cup of coffee, and thought about what had just happened.

He had not expected Lin Jianmin's strength, and it also allowed Li Wendi to see some of the real conditions in Hong Kong: people with guns are more ferocious than those with knives.

He might also be in trouble, because Hong Kong movies in the past also mentioned "killing the chicken to scare the monkeys", and Li Wendi seemed to be the most suitable chicken.

The police force at that time was plagued by corruption, and they would often use citizens as scapegoats to increase their crime-solving rates. It was common for people to confess under torture in police stations.

"Legal milk tea, heart-breaking books" are words invented by the police station to deal with "disobedient" prisoners. Deng Songlian may also let Li Wendi be a scapegoat in order to befriend Lin Jianmin.

Thinking of this, Li Wendi could no longer sit still and hurried back to Sai Wan.

There are few pedestrians in Sai Wan during this time period, only a few.

Li Wendi stood at the door of the store, looked at the busy figure, then walked in with a bag of fruit, and said with a smile, "How is business?"

He placed the fruit directly on the coffee table and slowly approached Zhao Wanying.

Zhao Wanying glanced at Li Wendi, then lowered her head to look at the documents, and replied unhappily, "This is not a business. The fewer people come to me, the happier I am."

If few people come, it means that no one has any difficulties.

Li Wendi smiled and said, "The lady naturally hopes for world peace, and we also hope to make good money."

"Humph!" Zhao Wanying snorted, somewhat disdainful of Li Wendi's pretense, "Don't you people who make money through illegal means like to grab territory? Kill people and set fires? Otherwise, how would you get the opportunity to make money?"

Li Wendi curled his lips at Zhao Wanying's pressure. He also hated young and dangerous people, but for the time being he needed this identity to ensure his safety.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Wanying finally couldn't help it and said impatiently, "Just tell me what you want to say. I don't have time to chat with you."

So Li Wendi embellished his thoughts and spoke them out.

"Do you want me to be your representative lawyer?" Zhao Wanying asked with a frown. She certainly knew some dirty things in the police force.

Li Wendi nodded slightly and played the emotional card again, "Wanying, I want to slowly get back to my normal job. You know Xiaonan is going to college soon, and I need to prepare some money for her. My mother is getting old and needs a large pension."

Zhao Wanying was relieved to see Li Wendi had turned over a new leaf, but she was still a little afraid that Li Wendi was deceiving her. "Do you really want to leave the club?"

"Well, but not now. I need some capital to do business. Don't worry, I won't do anything illegal." Li Wendi said firmly.

"Okay, I can help you, but the prerequisite is that you don't do anything illegal or harmful." Zhao Wanying said seriously.

In Zhao Wanying's eyes, Li Wendi is no longer the Li Wendi of a few years ago. She has become cunning and good at talking. She is worried that she has been deceived by Li Wendi without knowing it.

"This is natural. If it really happens, I will send someone to inform you. You have to hurry up. I may not be able to hold on for too long." Li Wendi sighed.

After doing a good job on Zhao Wanying's work, Li Wendi still felt a little panicked. After careful consideration, he still wanted to visit Deng Songlian.

As for whether he would offend Deng Jiaren, Li Wendi no longer cared because he was really afraid that Lin Jianmin would cause trouble.

Now he is completely a passive counterattack character, waiting for "this pot" to fall, so he needs to get more things to defend himself.

Thinking of this, Li Wendi did not stop and directly stopped a taxi and headed to the Deng family villa in Deep Water Bay.

Maybe Deng Songlian can mediate this matter.
