History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 103 The Difference Between Factions
"It's not easy to do. Ghost wants to be peaceful on top, but he's waiting to show you off on the bottom. Chief Inspector Chen wants to imitate Brother Sheng. Master, what do you teach me?"

On Shanghai Street, in a restaurant, five plainclothes detectives sat aside, drinking tea and eating, guarding the boss.

The boss sat with the police chief in Yau Ma Tei military uniform, drinking tea and complaining all the time. Chen Li held a quicksand bag he had bitten into in his hand, and said cheerfully, "I can only do it according to the requirements of the superior."

"If you do well, you will get food. If you don't do well, you will be kicked out."

He Dingxian knew in his heart: "Hong Kong Island has established a new order, and what you do after that has already been rewarded for merit. Inspector Hua's position is to reward!"

"As for the fire in the Kowloon area, it was actually a high-level contribution. It was a coincidence. It is impossible to give him another credit. Because the fire is burning, without the power of the upper-level, the Chaoshan Gang can't get up. The position of Inspector Hua is not good now. , the next step is to be kicked out."

"But at least I can work for two years, make a lot of money, and not look bad." The position of Inspector Hua in Mong Kok District is a job in the area, with an independent frontier and a source of wealth. , but the higher-ups will also look at your ability, if you are not as good as others, it is normal to be kicked away.

Correspondingly, the Mong Kok mission office will also become his foundation. If he can do a good job, he will not need to rely on others in the future, and he already has the opportunity to fight for the top position by himself.

How many people fight life and death for the sake of a foundation of standing, and they are not allowed to follow their wishes.

"Do it well, so why don't you fight or kill, and obediently ask the major clubs to take out the stalls?" He Dingxian was amazed: "I really dare to think about it."

"Ghosts can't do anything about it. Once the fire broke out and how much it cost, the Governor was furious. Of course he doesn't want any more accidents on the street." Chen Li stuffed half a quicksand bag into his mouth, chewing it with tea: " Now they would rather take less money than cause trouble, otherwise the position under the ass will be lost."

"Master, you have been in the police force for more than ten years, so you should know the internal situation of Guilao?" He Dingxian asked, "How is the fight going?"

"Very fierce!"

Chen Li instinctively lowered his voice: "Ghosts are also human beings, and they like to stand in line and pay attention to interests. The military faction, the government faction, and the Hong Kong faction are always fighting. The Hong Kong Governor's Office is also good at balancing, but the most powerful is the military faction. Then there is the Fuguan faction, the Hong Kong faction is small, it can be regarded as a branch of the Fuguan faction, fortunately the ghosts are fighting back, but it has nothing to do with us, the Chinese detectives are just tools for the ghosts."

"Don't get me wrong, it's a tool to make money." He secretly shook his head and smiled.

He Dingxian nodded thoughtfully: "I will try my best to do things well."

"You complained to me because you have something to ask, right?" Chen Li glanced at him and said bluntly, "Chen Tong did what Brother Sheng did. On the surface, he wanted to follow Brother Sheng, but in fact... he just wanted to catch him. that power!"

"The chief inspector of the Hong Kong Island District can manage both black and white, so why can't the one in Kowloon? Chen Tong seems to be the person who was mentioned by Brother Sheng, but in fact he and Brother Sheng are selling each other's face, and the status is not comparable. Brother Sheng is low, of course you have to grasp both black and white, otherwise wouldn’t you be weaker than Brother Sheng?”

"It's the same with you. If you don't grasp the power of black and white, you will be inferior to others. Therefore, you are doing things for the officer and for yourself. It is impossible not to do it. You are looking for me to find out about Chief Inspector Chen. ?”

He Dingxian gave a thumbs up: "Master is brilliant!"

"Tsk, who can't see the little girl in your heart?" Chen Li sneered, and had a showdown on the spot: "I don't have a deep friendship with Inspector Chen, let alone brothers, but we worked together before, so we can be regarded as colleagues. If there is no conflict of interest , I definitely won’t make things difficult for you, but if there is a conflict of interest, don’t count on me, otherwise Inspector Hua of Mong Kok District will be mine, and it’s your turn to do it?”

"That's right." He Dingxian took it for granted, and Chen Li said again: "Director Gao admires you, but he doesn't treat you as his own, because he knows that he is using your strength to take advantage of each other. You won't be grateful, Chief Inspector Chen It is impossible for the elders to treat you as one of their own, and you have to take good care of where you will go in the future, sometimes it’s okay to eat soft food, or to be a big brother, the benefits are the most important.”

"Don't act rashly, and don't be ashamed to ask for help. There are only two inspectors in Hong Kong."

He Dingxian put on an appearance of being deeply educated: "Thank you, Master, for your reminder."

In my heart, I was thinking about the faction inside the ghosts. The army faction, as the name suggests, is the garrison professional ghost chief, because the Hong Kong Island Police Force was established with the assistance of the garrison. At the beginning of its establishment, the backbone was entirely the local garrison. There is no doubt that the army faction It is the most powerful ghost faction in the Hong Kong Island Police Force.

Immediately after is the government official faction. As we all know, the colonial system of Hong Kong Island is a "flowing official" policy. Not only is the term of office short, the change is quick, and the officials are also flowing within a circle. Most of them are diplomats, and some of them are marginalized. Ancestral bureaucracy.

These people began to control the power of the Hong Kong government, and then infiltrated the police system. They are forces that belong only to the Hong Kong Governor's Office and are dedicated to suppressing the military faction.

The rest of the Hong Kong faction refers to the ghost police officers who have lived on Hong Kong Island for more than two generations. Some are the children of merchant families who have settled in Hong Kong Island and apply for the police academy. After being selected, they are gradually promoted. , is closely related to the Fuguan faction, but because the family property is all placed in Hong Kong, there is a clear distinction from most of the ghosts who want to go back to their ancestral home.

In fact, going up to the ghost is a threshold that cannot be bypassed, but instead of thinking about being a dog for the ghost, it is better to think about how to corrupt the power of the ghost. The conflict between different factions may be a good place to start.

He Dingxian and his master drank afternoon tea together, and then went home after work. They made an appointment to get together with Inspector Zeng, Inspector Cai and others in two days.

He is now the inspector of the first district, and he is still in charge of the oil and water district. His status is equal to that of Zeng and Cai, so he will naturally deepen his relationship with each other.

At that time, the new Inspector Lei will be brought along with him. Together, the four Inspectors are qualified to manipulate the situation in Kowloon!

"Sheriff Huo!"

He Dingxian met with the police chief in uniform in Mong Kok District. After the police chief in uniform expressed his full support for Inspector Hua in his work, he came to Yiyuan Film Company to drink tea: "Huh."

He blew on the hot tea in the cup, took a sip, and asked aloud, "Ah Zi, how is Ah Hao these two days?"

"The fruit bar is up."

Lardboy stood by the table and said with a smile: "The main products are durian, banana and coconut, with the support of my brothers and the money from the big boss."

"It can be regarded as smooth sailing. It is definitely no problem to ask for a meal."

He Dingxian nodded: "The fruit market is under a lot of competition pressure. In the past, there was also a fruit market on Hong Kong Island that sold durians, but the ones from Myanmar were not good."

"Thai products, Nanyang merchants are rushing to sell them in Europe and the United States. He has a time difference. He is the first to bring them back to Hong Kong Island and sell them. He can make a profit. If there is any trouble, the company can pay him some money."

Lard Boy nodded and said, "I understand the boss."

"What about the newspaper macro?"

He Dingxian asked the name of a person: "The newspapers and wood in the warehouse have been burned, and we must quickly bring some wood from Southeast Asia to Hong Kong."

Lardboy thought about it carefully and said: "The factory is about to be reorganized, and the workers are coming back to work one after another. It is time to replenish a batch of wood, but the newspaper macro was burned last time, and his injuries have not healed. I am afraid of going to sea. Can't stand the storm, so why don't you just change someone else to take charge?"

He Dingxian thought for a while and looked at him: "Do you have a recommendation?"

"There is a guy named Little B in the company. He used to go to sea with Ah Hong, and his ability to handle affairs is not bad, but he is young. Why don't we let him go first?" Lard boy asked cautiously.

He Dingxian nodded readily: "Okay, let's try it. This time, we need to ship more goods, and the scale of the factory should also be expanded."

"Yesterday, Zou Huaiwen sent me a message that most of Xinsen Paper's customers were acquired by our company. In the future, the newspapers of "Wen Wei Po", "Sing Tao Daily", "Voice of Chinese" and "South China Morning Post" will belong to us. If there is a shortage of raw materials, customers will run away.”

Zhu Youzi understood and nodded immediately: "I will give orders immediately."

In fact, after the downfall of Xinsen Paper, there is no factory in the white paper industry that can compete with Dongfang Paper. The prices of other factories can’t beat Dongfang Paper. The reorganization of the newspaper will take time. Many newspaper offices cannot supply their newspapers, and the rest of the newspaper offices can only find paper from small paper factories, and small paper factories will sign paper supply contracts according to the trend.

In addition, there are always some paper mills who have a way of maintaining customer relations, which allows newspapers to blindly select suppliers without looking at prices.

However, Orient Paper's customer base has tripled, and its monthly profit is estimated to exceed 15. If you eat the biggest bite, you have to leave a mouthful of soup.

The rapid reconstruction of Dongfang Paper is mainly due to the machines of Xinsen Paper, which not only saves the cost of purchasing machines, but also saves time. The [-] machines alone are three times larger than the previous Dongfang Paper. In the future, the market will be unimpeded, and there will definitely be replacements and additional purchases of machines.

He Dingxian was thinking about something in his mind, and suddenly asked: "How is Ah Hong's family? I remember that he also went to the housing estate to look for someone that night, but he didn't seem to find them afterwards?"

Zhu Youzi's face darkened, and he sighed: "Only one younger brother who was an apprentice in a watch shop was not at home. He escaped a catastrophe. His parents and two younger sisters were lost. I don't know whether they were repatriated or killed. I asked their neighbors, and both parents and younger sister escaped from the scene of the fire."

"It's hard to say whether I can see my family again in this life. Fortunately, the two brothers can take care of each other. It is said that Ah Hong's younger brother wanted to commit suicide. In order to comfort him, Ah Hong changed his name."

He Dingxian asked naturally, "What's your name?"

"Jiang Tianyang!"

Zhu Youzi said: "Ah Hong also changed his name to Jiang Tiansheng, not only to persuade his younger brother, but also to tell himself to cheer up and live!"

He Dingxian's expression was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Good name!"

"It doesn't matter what the name is, as long as the person is the same person..." Lard boy looked at it very much. He Dingxian drank a cup of tea, shook his head, threw the Jiang brothers behind his ears, and immediately said: "I was As I said before, when I become the inspector of Shanghua, I will let you be my rent collector."

"Get ready, in two days, when I settle down with the club bosses on the ground, it will be your turn to appear on stage."
