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

Chapter 12 12: You can’t even save 5 yuan?Lei Luo swears an oath

As the saying goes, a man needs clothes and a saddle.

Lei Luo, who put on his new suit, was full of confidence.

He wanted his sweetheart to see how he looked in his new clothes.

So I hurried to Cheong Kee Store located in Tung Tau Bungalow Area, Wong Tai Sin District, Kowloon.

Here on Hong Kong Island,
Shiduo is a grocery store.
Lei Luo's sweetheart is the daughter of the store owner.
What’s interesting is that her name is also Axia.

it's very common,

Every era has its own distinctive name,

For example, Weiguo, Jianguo, etc. have become popular in China.

Axia’s father is a typical small businessman.

While smoking, he looked at Lei Luo impatiently.

"Pujie, what are you doing here again?"

"Do you know you are not welcome here?"

Lei Luo had known that Axia's father looked down upon others.
It's just that people took advantage of their own weaknesses.
He could only swallow his anger,

"You ask Axia to come down, I will marry her."

"I'm married to my mother."

Axia Laodou scolded,

"You're late, she has already returned to the countryside."

"Then when will she come back?"

"It's none of your business when she comes back."

Axia's father sneered,

"I've already suffered enough, and I don't even want to argue with you about this."

"What? Do I want to give you a big red envelope to thank you for playing with my daughter?"

"Pooh!"

He spat,
"Police officers shouldn't be so bad. God is watching what people do, just jump on the street."

Not long after Lei Luo was promoted to detective by Chen Li,
My mind still retains its innocence,
Hearing this, he retorted,
"Who told you that police officers must be bad people?"

"I never accept illegal money."

In the current era, due to the influx of large numbers of people from outside into Hong Kong Island,
These people live close to the mountains,

Among them, the main ones maintaining order are the hometown associations.

That is, people in the community.

The main role of the police while on duty is to collect illegal money.

After get off work, I take off my tiger skin and become brothers with the people in the club.
to be honest,
In the eyes of many people,

These cops are worse than the people in the club.

That’s why in this era, there is a reliable saying that sows can climb trees.

Instead of counting on the note,

It is better to make friends with neighbors and guard against thieves.

This also contributes to the power of the association in disguise.

Ah Xia's father immediately jumped up when he heard this.

Lei Luo's words directly stimulated his nerves,

"Shai Zai, you are making your bad worse!"

"Other police officers will collect dirty money, but you won't."

Axia's father pointed at Lei Luo's nose and yelled,
"You are the worst person. People like you are destined to be poor for the rest of their lives. You will be thrown into the street!"

"Aren't you going to marry my daughter?"

"Okay, have you saved enough 5 yuan?"

Lei Luo said nothing;
Tanmo’s monthly salary is 160 yuan.
5?
I don’t know that it will take the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to receive it.

"You have been a police officer for seven years, seven years."

Axia Laodou knows Lei Luo very well,

A father will be very wary of any brat who hooks up with his daughter.
A detailed investigation must also be done.

He jumped to his feet and yelled,
"You have been a police officer for so long and you can't even save 5 yuan."

"Tell me, where do you need to spend money?"

"Everyday food is cheap, clothes are cheap, wages are cheap, everything is cheap."

Axia's father has been dissatisfied with Lei Luo for a long time.

7 years,

As long as you are sensible,
He already bought a tenement house outside.
As a result, the whole family had to squeeze into a wooden house with others.

People in their 60s live in the same house.
There's no place to stretch my legs.

I can hear people farting and grinding their teeth clearly.

How do you become a police officer?

"I really don't understand, you are also a police officer, how can you do this?"

Lei Luo's face turned pale when he was told,
He wanted to be angry but was afraid that this bastard would really let Axia go back to the countryside.

"Are you deliberately looking down on me?"

"Yeah, I just look down on you." Axia's father said angrily,

"5 yuan! Do you have it?"

"No? Okay, I'll give you 7 days to raise the money. Can you raise it?"

He saw that Lei Luo didn't answer,
Then he cursed again,

"Shai Zai, I gave you a chance but you didn't use it."

"Okay, I'll give you another chance. If you don't raise the money in 7 days, I'll sell her to a ballroom for thousands of people to enjoy."

"I've been doing this for a year and a half, and I've become disabled and rotten. Do you still want to do it?"

"I definitely want it."

The more Axia's father scolded him, the more excited he became.
"You're such a loser, you're destined to be a bachelor for the rest of your life, that's why you keep pestering my daughter."

"Sai Zai, don't think that you look good just because you wear a foreign suit. I'm telling you, you have no future."

Ah Xia's father scolded him until his mouth went dry.

He was too lazy to pay attention to Lei Luo anymore.

Just go back to the store,
"Go away, street boy!"

Lei Luo was so angry that he was shaking all over.

He clenched his fists and wanted to rush in and beat this bastard up.
But in that case,
I definitely won’t be able to do what I want,

"Don't think I can't get it."

Lei Luo yelled,

"Either I don't fish it out, or if I do, it will turn into a big water pipe."

Lei Luo remembered what Gao Gao said to him in the past,
Since you are on the boat, you must hold on to the side of the boat.

Otherwise, you will definitely fall into the water.

To have money is to have power…

Lei Luo pinched the golden beads in his pocket,
Originally he wanted to give it to Axia,
Now it seems that we may have to wait for a while.

Brother Yao is right,

Only with money can one have power;
Otherwise, I won’t even be able to afford a wife.

developed,

Lei Luo secretly swore in his heart,

You must develop yourself!

After taking the oath, Lei Luo turned around and went to find his uncle Chen Li.

Both of them are Chaozhou people.
They were already very close to each other,
Moreover, Chen Li admired Lei Luo as a person.
Otherwise, he would not have been specially transferred to Sham Shui Po for inspection purposes.

"Boy, look at how embarrassed you are..."

Chen Li has fiery eyes and golden eyes.
He took out a bottle of Erguotou,
"Trapped by love again?"

"Uncle, your vision is really first-rate."

Lei Luo smiled bitterly,

"Axia's father thought I had no money, so he asked me for 5 yuan as a betrothal gift."

"Is this your first time hanging out?"

Chen Li is much calmer.

He eats more salt than Lei Luo eats rice,

He had seen this scene countless times in his life.
"If you don't have money, you will definitely be bullied. This is an eternal law."

"Come, come, come, have a drink."

"People think you don't have 5 yuan, so just work hard to earn it."

Chen Li smiled and said,

"You're looking for a job now, you have a troll in your hands, and you still can't get 5 yuan?"

He admired Lei Luo's strong bones,
But you can't survive on Hong Kong Island if you're tough.

If you want to enjoy the sun here, you must know how to fish!

Chen Li has given Lei Luo a chance,

When he promoted Lei Luo to be a scout, he gave this kid a very lucrative career.

"Uncle, I want to fish."

Chen Li was very happy,

good boy,
Finally enlightened,

He did not live up to his hard work,
He quickly took two wine glasses and a plate of peanuts.

"Come, uncle, let me have a drink with you."

Chen Li loves Lei Luo very much.
He saw the shadow of his former self in this young boy,
So I have always wanted to train Lei Luo to take over.
It’s just that taking over requires money.
If Lei Luo doesn’t understand the routine,

And if you can’t get the money,

That means nothing.

"Although there are not many of us Teochew people on Hong Kong Island, we are better than we are because we are united enough, so we have a place to survive."

Chen Li asked Lei Luo to take over because he hoped that he could continue to protect the Chaozhou people.
He asked while pouring wine for Lei Luo,

"Did you encounter Young and Dangerous, two-on-six (minor characters), or more aggressive people while patrolling?"
