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

Chapter 317 Chapter 317: Besides MR. Gao, who else can be the flag bearer?

Not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns apart. This is also an appropriate way to describe the relationship between Gao Yao, Situ Zhiren and others.

Recalling the glorious past, when Gao had just acquired gold, he was rich but not powerful. Thanks to Situ Zhiren's help, everyone had a smooth start.

After everyone finished playing sparrows and left, Situ Guan Peiying looked at Qian Shan in front of Situ Zhiren and was dumbfounded: "This...this..."

Situ Zhiren sighed: "Put it away, Mr. Gao's reward cannot be ignored."

Isn't it just a reward?

In this game of sparrows, Gao Yao was the main loser, while Situ Zhiren and Lei Luo took turns to make big profits.

They all use money to do things, but they are still different.

Previously, I was the master, and I took the money as it should be.

If I take the money now, I am no longer the master, but the auxiliary, and I have to take the money.

Of course, after playing sparrow, you have to eat. The chef who came from Da Sanyuan is really good at his craftsmanship. After eating, there are exquisite Western pastries.

After Situ Zhiren took a bite, he couldn't help but said: "That's right."

He thought about it for a while: "It's been so long since I've been out that I haven't had such a decent Western pastry."

Lei Luo asked curiously: "Sir Situ, didn't you go to London? Why do you say that?"

In fact, he was flattering on purpose.

Although Lei Luo has never been out of Hong Kong Island, his wife is a turtle, and she usually talks about the situation outside.

According to her, except for America, other countries may not be much better than Hong Kong Island.

Situ Zhiren waved his hands repeatedly: "Forget it, London is still implementing food rationing, and it is not the turn of ordinary families to cook for themselves."

"The most common ones on the street are mashed potato restaurants and brown bread restaurants."

Lei Luo was surprised: "I thought it was heaven on earth, but I didn't expect it..."

Everyone laughed.

Gao Yao smiled and said: "Hong Kong Island is an international transit port. All goods going north and south have to pass through here. It's so difficult for everyone, let alone other places."

At that time, England was no longer called the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. When it was still wealthy, it imported more than 2000 million tons of grain every year, most of which relied on the colonies in South Asia for grain and food, and relied on Americcan for meat. The supply of dairy products relies on South Pacific Commonwealth countries such as Australia and New Zealand.

Due to the outbreak of World War II, transportation was cut off, and England had to implement a rationing system, not only for food, but also for many other daily necessities.

The rationing system also makes different quota and quantity adjustments for different groups of people, such as ordinary people, soldiers, patients, etc.

The most popular program in England at that time was a program called "Frontline Kitchen", hosted by the famous host Stuart Peter Brody. The program invited many famous chefs to explain to the audience how to use rationed ingredients to make simple and delicious dishes. Nutritious food.

After the war, rationing did not end but continued.

其规定平民每周可领取227克培根、454克糖、113克茶叶、540克肉、227克奶酪、450克果酱、227克牛肉、340克黄油、85克猪油、454克糖果。

"That's what Brother Kaname said."

Situ Zhiren smiled and held the hand of Situ Guan Peiying who was sitting next to him: "Fortunately, my wife loves me and sends me money every week so that I can buy some supplies on the black market."

The ration list included clothes, soap, paper, gasoline, and even baby bottles, alarm clocks, and razors.

In order to ensure that every person in the Commonwealth can receive the minimum ration needed to sustain life, Britain has implemented an unprecedented ticket shopping system and also issued some discount coupons.

This coupon shopping method ensures that people in the UK can receive the same ingredients regardless of their income level.

According to regulations, every adult male in a British family can receive 2 sock rolls and 7 clothing rolls.

The hostess of the family can receive the same socks roll, 5 clothing rolls, and a coat roll, while the children can receive 20 children's clothing rolls.

In fact, this condition is not bad. After all, after the war, it was quite good for Daying to maintain this dignity.

However, citizens who were accustomed to using it did not think so. They needed more, so the black market in Great Britain was very prosperous at that time.

Gao Yao laughed loudly: "It's really enviable to raise a case with eyebrows."

Despite the fact that Situ Zhiren and his wife are enjoying a good life now, more than ten years later, Situ Guan Peiying committed suicide in a mysterious manner...

"Zhiren, you are now a deputy inspector."

Among Gao Yao's subordinates in the police force, Yao Mu's identity and status could be higher than that of Situ Zhiren, and the others were beyond his reach.

As for development in the police force, Gao Yao was very optimistic about Situ Zhiren and asked, "Have you ever thought about where to develop?"

Prior to this, Situ Zhiren was just an interpreter in the Grand Hall. He could rely on the ghosts and foxes to pretend to be powerful, but if it really came down to it, he had positions but no power.

It's different now. He has returned from training, so he will never be able to interpret again. The police force will definitely send him to another place.

Where to decentralize it and what to do are matters worthy of discussion.

Situ Zhiren said without thinking: "I also have a headache about this matter, so I wanted to ask Brother Yao what he meant."

A smile appeared on Gao Yao's face. Zhiren knew how to advance and retreat in a measured way, which was good.

Only in this way can our relationship be long-lasting and have good results in the future.

"Kowloon."

Gao Yao said slowly: "It's easy to get results there."

"What you need most now, Zhiren, is this. Going there will always make your foundation a little more stable."

As the saying goes, prime ministers must start from the state and county, and strong generals must be sent from the army.

Situ Zhiren was originally a civil servant. If he wanted to rise quickly, he must go to the front line to get credit.

Since we are going to the front line, of course we are going to Kowloon. On Hong Kong Island, what other place could be more suitable than here?
In fact, Situ Zhiren had already thought about it before he came. He knew that if he wanted to climb fast, he had to do it without support.

After counting, Gao Yao, whom I know well, is the most reliable.

Since you want to officially join Gaoyao, it must be Kowloon!

Therefore, Situ Zhiren came here this time in the hope of gaining Gao Yao's approval and confirmation.

Seeing what Gao wanted to say now, Situ Zhiren held Situ Guan Peiying's right hand and unconsciously exerted some force!
It worked!
Situ Zhiren's palms were sweating, and he quickly expressed his position: "I want my brother."

"it is good."

Ever since Gao personally asked the Hong Kong government to make concessions and had to promise never to touch the Kowloon Walled City in the future, Gao regarded Kowloon as meat in his bowl.

These days, he is not just sitting around playing with women, but he is studying it seriously.

"Mong Kok."

Gao Yao said: "Boss Yao said that there is a shortage of Chinese detective inspectors in Mong Kok. You are the deputy inspector. It's a good time to go there."

"It won't be long before I can be officially appointed as an inspector!"

Mong Kok developed after Yau Ma Tei. It was an industrial area at that time, with many cigarette factories, cotton weaving factories and hardware factories.

However, due to the war, the business of these factories was sluggish, and most of them never opened again.

Gao Yao already knew the plans of the Public Works Bureau. Mongkok was to be developed into a commercial and residential area. The existing factories had only two fates, either to close down and sell the land and move away, or to sell the land and move to the suburbs.

It’s all for sale after all!

Since there were many opportunities for demolition and development, Gao Yao planned to arrange for someone of his own to go in. When Situ Zhiren came back, he was the most suitable person.

Lei Luo's eyes turned red when he heard this, Inspector!

Have you ever had such a day?
Situ Zhiren was overjoyed. He had long heard that Yao Mu, who had always been easy to take sides, had joined Gao Yao's sect. He was a real Yao tiger.

Normally, Situ Zhiren had been purposefully trying to get close to him, but this tiger saw him as a little kid (as the interpreter said) and ignored him at all.

Well now, there is finally a chance to get close.

"Thank you Brother Yao." Situ Zhiren stood up and saluted: "I will definitely fight crime and serve the general public under the guidance of Brother Yao."

Looking at Situ Zhiren's face in front of him, Lei Luo felt like he was shaken. He originally thought that he had made a lot of progress this year.

But compared with Sir Situ, I am still not shameless or immoral enough in politics.

Gao Yao smiled and waved his hand: "It's hard to talk about it. The most important thing is that you, Sir, can rise rapidly in the police force."

After the drinks were over, Situ Zhiren, who had achieved what he wanted, shook hands with Lei Luo in high spirits: "A Luo, let's play ball together when we have time."

"Let's play tennis."

Lei Luo thought that his golf was still so-so, so what the hell was tennis?

"it is good."

Lei Luo smiled and said: "When the weather is good, Sir Situ will come to Chai Wan to eat seafood. I guarantee it will be on time."

"Okay, that's it."

"husband."

Situ Guan Peiying looked back at the gate of Gao Mansion. It was really a wealthy and powerful family. She remembered that it seemed to be more than half a year ago when she heard the name.

At that time, my husband took other people's money and lived in a house given to me by others.

As a result, a year later, her husband became an errand boy. She felt that society was changing too fast.

"Mr. Gao is really majestic now."

"But everyone said that Mr. Gao has embarrassed the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong government may want to deal with him later."

Gao Yao is indeed majestic, but Situ Guan Peiying is from the Situ family. Of course, she gives priority to the Situ family, so she said worriedly: "And now his hands are so long."

"Is this really good?"

Situ Zhiren laughed, and he just said something mysterious and mysterious: "If wealth does not lead to power, then it is meaningless!"

"All right."

Situ Zhiren saw that Guan Peiying still wanted to speak, so he waved his hand: "Don't worry about outside matters."

"Don't you like singing and playing mahjong? You'll come to my brother's house later."

Women always have long hair but short knowledge, and they like to follow what others say.

What does Situ Zhiren want his brother to be like now?It's too big to move!

He has been around Gui Lao for so long, and he understands Gui Lao's peeing habits best.

To put it simply, bully the weak, fear the strong, and avoid trouble!
Just seven words!

Situ Zhiren figured it out after several years of speculation.

After watching it for so long, he realized that there are two types of Hong Kong government policies, proactive and reactive.

Actively, it is to maintain the status of Westerners.

Passive, to quell riots.

No matter which one it is, it is all to maintain its rule.

It is absolutely impossible to rely on Westerners to maintain rule on Hong Kong Island, and it is not possible to rely on the police to maintain public order, but to rely on the Chinese.

There are millions of Chinese on Hong Kong Island, and seventy-eight out of ten of them are blind. They know a humble Grantham and a foreign foreigner.

But they know Gao Yao!

On this point, the Hong Kong government dares to take action?

Give me a break!

Based on Situ Zhiren's understanding of the Hong Kong government, he might decide what kind of reward he would give Gao Yao later...

If he didn't have this confidence, how could Situ Zhiren come to Gao Yao's house to visit him immediately?

What a joke!
Not to mention, Situ Zhiren, who is close to Gui Lao, does understand Gui Lao very well.

Grantham was discussing with Jian Lifu and others the planning and development of Hong Kong Island in the new year, which included appeasing the Chinese.

People must strengthen themselves and others will respect them.

Gui Lao is such a piss-taker.

The demonstrations and strikes made Westerners tremble with fear. Many people mistakenly believed that Westerners wanted to settle scores. In fact, Grantham and others saw fear in this.

The united Chinese people are really too scary. People are now uneasy. If they do something outrageous, they may not know what kind of chaos Hong Kong Island will be like.

So their idea is to appease.

Since it is about appeasing, the first person to appease must be the big brother who takes the lead.

Who is the big brother who takes the lead?Highly important!

"MR. Gao made indelible contributions to this incident."

Grantham expressed his position first.

There is no way, someone Gao did add some firewood in the process, making the fire burn much stronger, but this fire was also put out by someone else, right?

If others don’t have this ability, what should we do?
Must praise!

Others nodded, and they all agreed.

In politics, there is no right or wrong. Different opinions and petty emotions are allowed.

The most important thing is to show off the muscles. As long as the muscles are strong enough and powerful enough, then everyone still agrees.

Jian Lifu said: "Even so, Councilor Gao already has many honors, and they are all new, so it's hard to reward them again."

The whole world knows that Jian Lifu and Gao are close friends, so he is the only one who can speak so righteously.

"That said."

One person said: "If there is no reward for merit, it will easily make people working outside feel cold."

Everyone was lost in thought, and things were awkward here.

MR. The rise is too fast and the time is too short. It is true that we cannot give too much honor, but it is not okay not to give it.

Grantham said: "The ambassador called before and expressed concern about the rule of the Democratic Party."

"If the regime changes hands there, it will most likely affect the future situation on Hong Kong Island."

Everyone's expression changed. Compared to this, the others were really trivial.

"Sir, what do you mean?"

"We need someone who can help us stabilize the situation."

Grantham asked: "Besides Gao Yao, who else is there?"

Everyone shook their heads slowly. They originally thought that there were many Chinese representatives on Hong Kong Island.

But after a commotion, all the monsters and demons revealed their true colors.

It seems that the most popular, powerful and powerful person in the entire Hong Kong Island is actually the youngest high-ranking person...

This alone makes these ghost guys feel a little uncomfortable!
