Starting Hong Kong Variety Show: My senior brother is Lingling Qi.

Chapter 218: State secrets, right?

On the sea near Hong Kong Island, an old fishing boat is drifting with the waves.

The cabin was packed with people, with almost no room to stand. The air was filled with various smells, including the salty sea breeze, the dampness of the bilge, and the smell of people's sweat.Everyone was crowded together, as if there was no room to breathe.They are standing or sitting, leaning or leaning, in different shapes, but they are all trying their best to find a comfortable position.

Even though it was so crowded, there was no hint of impatience or complaint on their faces, but instead they were full of anticipation and excitement.

Li Xiangdong huddled in a corner of the cabin. After he saw Hong Kong Island not far away through the window, he excitedly put his arms around the shoulders of his two brothers and said: "We are almost there, I have already seen Hong Kong Island!" "

After Qi Jingsheng and Guo Xuejun heard this, they quickly stood up and looked out the window. When they saw the high-rise buildings not far away, they said excitedly: "Hong Kong Island is really different from home. From such a distance, they are all full of buildings."

"Hahaha, I must make some money when I come to Hong Kong this time. My mother is waiting for me to make money to build a house and marry a wife."

After hearing what they said, not only Li Xiangdong, but also everyone else in the cabin looked expectant.

They are the retired elites from various military departments who came to support from the south. Many of them were still farming in their hometowns a few days ago, but they received orders from their former army chiefs to pack their bags and gather to go to Hong Kong Island to perform tasks.

The leader did not say what the specific task was, only that it was a long-term task. Once you arrive, you will have full authority to listen to the arrangements of a gentleman named Zheng and obey his orders!
But among the excited people in the cabin, there was one person who seemed out of place.

Guo Xuejun glanced at the man sitting at the hatch of the ship with his eyes closed, and asked Li Xiangdong: "Brother Xiangdong, where is that brother from? He has been silent since he got on the ship, and only responded politely when someone spoke to him. , quite arrogant.”

"Yes," Qi Jingsheng agreed, "the brothers in this cabin are either from the special forces or are old scouts who have just returned from Yuenan after more than ten years of service. What does this guy have to be proud of?"

"I'm not arrogant." Li Xiangdong patted the two of them on the head and said, "Maybe he just has a cold personality."

After speaking, as if to verify his words, Li Xiangdong patted his butt and stood up and walked to the hatch of the ship.

Xu Zhengyang, who was closing his eyes and thinking about the tasks assigned by his chief, suddenly heard footsteps walking towards him. He opened his eyes and looked at Li Xiangdong who had already walked in front of him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's okay, it's okay," Li Xiangdong immediately waved his hand and said, "I just saw that you were a bit unfamiliar, brother, so come over and say hello."

After saying that, he took out a crumpled cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette from it and handed it to Xu Zhengyang,
"Peony, my boss secretly gave it to me before I left. I haven't been willing to smoke it. How about one, brother?"

"Thank you," Xu Zhengyang shook his head with a smile, "I don't know how to smoke."

Li Xiangdong nodded, lit one for himself and said, "I didn't know how to smoke before, but I became addicted to cigarettes after coming back from Yuenan. In my hometown, I always smoked local cigarettes, which are very strong."

The native tobacco in his mouth is also leaf tobacco. Although it is a cigarette, it has the effects of promoting qi and relieving pain, dispelling wind and cold, removing congestion and reducing swelling. In this era, many old farmers like to come here after doing farm work. Take a bite.

Of course, because of the filter tips of ordinary cigarettes, the smoke contains a large amount of nicotine, and regular smoking can easily lead to lung cancer.

Halfway through the cigarette, Li Xiangdong finally asked the reason for his visit, "Brother, I see that you have an extraordinary bearing. Isn't it convenient for me to reveal which army you were in before?"

After Xu Zhengyang hesitated for a moment, he said truthfully: "Central Guard Corps."

Li Xiangdong was surprised when he heard this: "It turns out to be the chief's guard, which is amazing."

Xu Zhengyang smiled and said: "You guys are also great, I heard they are there in Yuenan."

Just then, the ship's boss shouted from the deck outside the cabin: "We're here, everyone, come out, someone is coming to pick up your performance group."

After hearing this, Xu Zhengyang reached out to Li Xiangdong and said, "Let's talk when we have time later."

"it is good!"

At this time, at the pier, in order to pick up the brothers who came to Hong Kong this time, Zheng Jirong specially sent two buses from the tram company.

He stood not far from the dock and looked at the ships that had docked. He said to Xu Xi beside him: "They are all veterans. Compared with the previous batch of students who knew nothing, this group of people can make you A lot less effort.”

"Yes," Xu Xi smiled and nodded, "This way I can have more time to read and play chess."

After Xu Xi finished speaking, she looked at the men walking down the deck with a smile, wearing liberation boots and old cotton clothes. Many of them were carrying a military bag.

After watching them for more than ten seconds, the smile on Xu Xi's face slowly faded. He whispered to Zheng Jirong with some solemnity: "Brother Rong, have you been deceived by your friends in the south? These people have perfect temperament. Unlike ordinary veterans, from my observation, each of them has at least a few lives on their hands."

What?Only a few? !

Zheng Jirong smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "Of course they are not ordinary veterans. Most of them have just returned from Yuenan."

"Don't worry," he patted Xu Xi's arm and said, "They may be a little aggressive, but they are absolutely reliable."

One minute later, everyone in the cabin got off the boat. Thinking of the leader's instructions before leaving, they did not stand in a column, but gathered together and looked at the surrounding environment calmly.

At this moment, Zheng Jirong walked quickly towards them with a smile.

He stretched out his hand and smiled at the tall man standing in front of everyone and asked, "Li Xiangdong?"

Seeing that the visitor could name him, Li Xiangdong secretly compared Zheng Jirong's face with the photo given by the leader, then he straightened his face and said, "Hello, Mr. Zheng!"

"Hey," Zheng Jirong patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "We're not in the army here, so we don't have to be so reserved."

Looking at Li Xiangdong, whose appearance was somewhat similar to that of a leopard, Zheng Jirong continued: "Everyone has had a hard time along the way. Get in the car first, and we will talk slowly when we get to the place."

"it is good!"

After receiving the order, Li Xiangdong led a large group of people behind him and boarded two buses next to the pier in an orderly manner.

After they left, Xu Zhengyang also walked up to Zheng Jirong with his bag on his back. Compared with Li Xiangdong's group, his expression was much more natural, "Hello, Mr. Zheng, I am Xu Zhengyang. My superior has arranged for me to come to your place as an instructor in the escort company." position." "It turns out to be brother Zhengyang." Zheng Jirong heard this and held his hand and said cordially: "Don't be so polite. We are all a family. From now on, just call me boss or brother Rong."

Although he was a little uncomfortable with Zheng Jirong's enthusiasm, Xu Zhengyang still nodded and solemnly said: "Boss!"

"Hahaha, that's right. Get in the car first. You must be hungry after sitting on the boat for so long. I have prepared a sumptuous meal to entertain everyone."

Looking at Xu Zhengyang's upright and serious back, Zheng Jirong smiled at Xu Xi and asked, "Axi, do you think Zhengyang looks a bit like you?"

"Have it?"

Xu Xi frowned and shook his head: "Don't be ridiculous, Brother Rong, I'm not as handsome as him."

Zheng Jirong smiled and touched his chin when he heard this. Maybe because of preconceptions, he felt that the two people were a bit similar. But in fact, if others looked at it, they would at most think that the eyebrows were a little similar, but to say that they looked like the same person, That's absolutely not the case.

Huasheng Security Company, in the staff dormitory.

Li Xiangdong and others looked at the clean and luxurious double dormitory, and everyone looked surprised.Qi Jingsheng couldn't help but said: "No wonder when we set off, the guys who were not chosen looked at us with envy. It turns out that this mission is really a fat one!"

Guo Xuejun patted the fluffy duvet and sighed: "Brother Xiang Dong, Mr. Zheng is so majestic. You see, when we came in just now, everyone in the building bowed to say hello to him."

"Don't say such nonsense in the future. From the moment you get off the ship, Mr. Zheng will be our superior."

After Li Xiangdong finished speaking, he ran to the corridor and told everyone in the room: "Gather in the restaurant in three minutes!"

This time Zheng Jirong did not host the restaurant as usual, but chose the restaurant built by the company as the reception venue.

It didn't take long for a group of people to come in neatly and orderly.

Zheng Jirong arranged for each of them to sit down, picked up the wine glass on the table and shouted to them: "I don't know what your superiors told you when we set off, but here I am."

He pointed to his heart and said sternly to them: "Since you are here, you are my brother Zheng Jirong."

"When you first came in, everyone should have seen the words on the door through the car window, [Huasheng Security Company]."

"I came all the way to call you brothers here, not to ask you to do anything illegal or criminal, nor to ask you to work for me!"

"What I need you to do is very simple. Be a guard or a bodyguard! Protect the life of our employer, of course."

Zheng Jirong pointed out: "Sometimes we need to maintain the security of the area below us. Although we have all retired, we were once elites in the military. Do you have the confidence to do it?!"

"Have!!!"

Hearing this deafening reply, Zheng Jirong continued to say with a smile: "I have to introduce two more people to you here. They will be your instructors from now on. I know that many of you have just climbed out of the hail of bullets. I feel like I don’t need anyone to teach me, but I have to tell you that this idea is totally wrong!”

"I'm sure each of you is a good soldier, but a good soldier may not necessarily make a good bodyguard."

"So you need extra instruction too!"

"The first one is the one on my right, Instructor Xu Zhengyang. He belongs to the Central Guard Corps and is also commonly known as the ZNH bodyguard. He will teach everyone how to do a good job in guarding."

After hearing his words, the contempt on the faces of this group of arrogant soldiers suddenly faded a lot. People who can serve as guards for the leader are naturally not something they can despise.

"The person on my left is called Xu Xi. I cannot disclose the identity of instructor Xu to everyone. He will give you some training on firearms and kicking. Of course, I know that you are all very confident in your marksmanship, kicking and kicking skills, so"

Zheng Jirong patted Xu Xi on the shoulder, raised his eyebrows and said to everyone: "If any of you can beat him with marksmanship, fists and kicks, then I will promote him to be an instructor."

Xu Xi's smile suddenly froze when he heard this. He glanced at the people around him who were looking at him excitedly, and sighed helplessly. He might not have time to read books or play chess in the coming days.

"Finally," Zheng Jirong continued loudly: "Let me talk about the benefits. After you officially start working, your salary will be 2 Hong Kong dollars per month, and additional bonuses will be paid to you based on the employer's experience!"

"Two 2 yuan?!"

Everyone looked at each other in surprise, and even Li Xiangdong, the calmest person, had a smile on his face. This money was definitely a huge sum for them.

After taking in everyone's excited expressions, Zheng Jirong raised the corner of his mouth and knocked on the wine glass in his hand, and said: "Come, everyone, drink this glass to the full. You must eat to your heart's content and drink happily tonight! Cheers!"

"cheers!"

After three drinks, the atmosphere in the restaurant became more and more lively. Qi Jingsheng, Guo Xuejun and others were bragging about their achievements in the Yuenan battlefield, while Li Xiangdong led a group of people to sing military songs often sung by the army.

Seeing this happy scene, Zheng Jirong nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Xu Zhengyang, who was a teetotaler, and asked curiously: "Zhengyang, how old are you this year?"

"28."

"Really? No wonder he looks so young."

Zheng Jirong then chatted: "Do you have a girlfriend? If not, I will introduce you to one. There are many beauties in Hong Kong. You can find whatever you like."

Xu Zhengyang pursed his lips when he heard this, then slowly shook his head with a straight face and said:
"National secret!"
