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

Fu Ban'er's words still touched Gao Yao's heart: in life, it is better to make one friend than to make one enemy.

Coincidentally, Mr. Gao's conduct was also like this. He did many things to his friends but only a few to his enemies.

Now that Fu Laorong has jumped out to fight with him, he will naturally have to find some allies in Haojiang.

Gao Yao didn't seem to care about Haojiang and rarely went there, but he already had someone in mind.

"How is Taishan's health?"

Li Wanhua on the other side of the phone cheered up and said softly: "The doctor said it's not very good."

In this era, you can retire at the age of 45. How old is Li Deng?

It’s pretty good that I’ve persisted until now.

Gao Yao comforted: "Do your best."

"If you need money, we will provide the money. If you need strength, we will provide the effort."

"Ah."

The Li family has many children. Normally, Gao Yao, the son-in-law, would not need to worry about this kind of thing.

Warmth flowed through Li Wanhua's heart. No matter what, Darling still had the Li family in his heart, and that was enough.

"Darling, I heard the wind is very tight now."

Gao Yao interrupted Li Wanhua: "You don't need to think about this now. Taishan's health is the most important thing."

"Abin is getting married tomorrow."

"You are the sister-in-law."

Gao Yao would not tell Li Wanhua his thoughts on the phone. He said directly: "Be happy."

Gao's study has become a temporary headquarters, with constant personnel and news exchanges.

"European Shores burned down the warehouse?"

Gao Yao laughed: "It's so powerful. After all, it's because he has read a book."

He then sneered: "A frog in a well doesn't know how big the world is."

"You dare to compete with the granary?"

The reason why the previous dynasty wanted to burn down the granary was because there was no one left behind who handled it from top to bottom.

If it is not burned, not only will the local government be unable to bear it, but the imperial court will also be unable to bear it.

The lid was too big to lift.

What the hell are Western medicines? The best it can do is make a little more money, and the people it deals with the most are the City Council and others.

Coincidentally, Mr. Gao is an unofficial member of the Municipal Council and can take care of this matter.

"Many citizens have responded, saying that inferior drugs are now rampant in the market. Not only do they cost more money, but they are also less effective."

Since the Zhang family has started to burn down the warehouse, it means that they are already prepared.

Gao Yao could even guess what the Zhang family was doing behind the scenes, and a public opinion offensive was definitely indispensable.

"Take my post to the police."

Although Lai Lianshi had forced the police to investigate the newspaper office, Yao Mu also began to investigate counterfeit Western medicine cases.

Gao Yao thought it was not enough.

This is a life-and-death struggle. Now that it has begun, there must be no mercy.

Fu family, Xiaoluobao, Wuyi, foreigners?

Gao Yao guessed that the Zhang family's affairs would most likely become the trigger for a serious conflict, and he was determined to make the conflict more intense.

"Western Medicine Street has been selling Western medicine for several years."

Gao Yao then ordered: "Some people must be disabled or put to death due to the wrong properties of the medicine."

"Go and check it secretly."

Lin Jing took the order, and then added: "Master, there are more and more tabloids spreading rumors in the market."

"We don't know who is behind it yet, but President Sun is already investigating through connections."

"It's either the Li family or the Fu family."

Gao Yao said directly: "In Hong Kong and Kowloon, those with this strength will not do this."

"He doesn't have the guts to do it if he doesn't have the strength."

"Definitely not in Hong Kong and Kowloon."

Gao Mou saw it very accurately. He sneered: "Play a public opinion offensive with me?"

Newspapers are still about spring and snow. They are only for the elites, and the illiterate neighbors just follow what everyone else says.

Fortunately, Gao wants him to have a big killer!

"Xingwen Clearwater Bay."

"I spent so much money and raised so many people just for today!"

Lin Jing took the order and followed: "Master, He Xin has been waiting for a long time."

Gao Yao then remembered that there was a little transparent He Xin. This guy really suffered a lot, so he smiled and said: "Invite him in."

He Xin has stubby eyebrows, narrow and stern eyes, and an aura of distinction as he looks around.

Although he is young, he has already shown his talents.

But in front of Gao Yao, this edge is only an inch at most.

"New boy."

Gao Yao smiled and said, "I've really wronged you this time. Tell me, how do you want me to compensate you?"

The doctor’s generosity is known all over the world!

He Xin believes that what the doctor said is true, and he also believes that the compensation given by the doctor can definitely restore his losses in Haojiang.

But he can't ask for it unless he is a fool.

Fortunately, He Xin was a smart man. He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Yao, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"Actually, my Water and Fire Company has long been envied by others."

"It turned out that there was a villain at work."

Just like Gao Yao's judgment about Haojiang, this small place simply cannot accommodate two families doing business together.

Since He Xin opened a water and fire company early, others would naturally not be able to open one.

No matter how small Haojiang is, there are still hundreds of thousands of people.

As the only company that provides kerosene to hundreds of thousands of people, it naturally has huge financial resources.

Back then, the reason why He Xin first solicited Baifanyu to become a shareholder, and then later solicited them to become investors, was to take advantage of their reputation in both black and white circles.

Now that Bai Fanyu is going to Singapore to live life, and Gao Yao starts a war with Fu Laorong, this water and fire company will definitely not be saved.

Gao Yao nodded, he was glad that Xin Zai could see this clearly.

He is worthy of being the gambling king of the generation who can seize the power of casino management from Guan Tai, Ye Han and others in the future!

He smiled slightly: "Then what are your plans?"

He Xin smiled bitterly: "I don't know yet, maybe I can open a construction company."

This guy came out of the wind and waves, and he is very ambitious. It is normal for him to want to start his own business.

Gao Yao smiled slightly. After all, He Xin was He Dong's eldest nephew. Since he returned to Hong Kong Island, he could do quite a lot of business just by borrowing He Dong's reputation.

"Xinzi, do you know Liang Chang?"

He Xin said without hesitation: "I recognize it."

"When I was working at CIMB, a shipment of goods was seized by Carrot Head, and Liang Chang was among them."

"Speaking of which, I'm kind of his savior."

Gao Yao smiled and said: "Your savior is Fu Ban'er's Da Zhai He, who specializes in pulling strings against me, Mr. Gao."

He Xindeng was sweating profusely: "Brother Yao, I don't know about this."

Gao Yao narrowed his eyes and looked at He Xin, this guy is not simple.

But no matter how easy it is, you still have to listen to yourself.

He immediately said: "A Xin, the situation is very chaotic now, we are all friends."

"so."

Gao Yao said: "I opened a Gao Yao office in Praya Street, Sham Shui Po, to deal with some needs of the neighbors."

"Ms. Liu, the former office director, went to Guangfu. Why don't you help me pick up the burden first?"

He Xin had only vaguely heard some rumors at first, but now he heard what Gao Yao said and even moved Liang Chang out.

He is a person who is familiar with Haojiang affairs and is very familiar with Lao Luo Bao, Fu Laorong, Liang Chang, Zhong Ziguan and others.

I know that things may be very dangerous. Brother Yao, you can't trust yourself, are you afraid that you will become Huang Gai?

Then he agreed: "If you want me to promote you, I have no problem."

Only then did Gao Yao smile: "Good brother."

"Abin is getting married tomorrow. Let's all drink and have fun together. I won't keep you around today."

He Xin respectfully exited the Gao Mansion. He stood at the door of the Gao Mansion and stared for a while, with both envy and unwillingness in his eyes.

A moment later, He Xin appeared in He Dong's mansion.

When he was young, he often came here with his father, Ho Shi-kwong. At that time, his father was the chairman of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals, the comprador of Sassoon Company, and a member of the Legislative Council.

Naturally, people who come to Hedong's mansion are also guests.

Unfortunately, because He Shiguang and his brothers were too greedy, they fell into the trap of a foreign company, causing all the brothers to go bankrupt.

Since then, He Xin's family has been displaced, and naturally they can no longer enter He Dong's home.

Speaking of which, this is the first time He Xin has officially stepped into He Dong's mansion since he became an adult!

"Uncle!"

He Dong is already eighty-six years old. In this era, there is only one reason why he can live such a long life - he is rich!

"Xiaojiu? You're here."

He Xin is the ninth in the family, so he is usually called He Laojiu. Those who give him face are called Jiu Ye.

He Xin saw He Dong's face was like chicken skin and his eyes were cloudy, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no hero could beat time.

He was both fearful and full of fighting spirit.

A good young man, he is just about to take advantage of the opportunity to rise to the top!

"Yes, uncle, I'm here."

He Xin had already given instructions. Knowing that He Dong was now old and frail and hearing impaired, he raised his voice and said, "My great-nephew is very happy to see that you are alive and well."

He Dong smiled broadly: "We haven't seen each other for many years since Haojiang and his party."

"I heard from Lao Shi that you are doing very well in business there, and I am happy for you."

When he was young, He Dong was famous for recognizing money but not people. In his eyes, money was everything.

Now that I am older, my desires have diminished.

However, he still believes that making money is what men should do most.

As for the oldest ten, He Wanqi, He Xin's sister, she went to Annan and Saigon to live with her father in 1942. They returned to Hong Kong in 1945 and have stayed on Hong Kong Island ever since.

He is already married and has children, but he often appears in He Dong's house.

"Thank you uncle for your concern."

He Xin greeted He Dong after a few words and prepared to leave.

He Dong said: "Xiaojiu, you didn't come easily. Now that you are here, you must have concerns in your heart."

"Why don't you tell me and listen."

He Xin pondered.

"Although I am old, I am not blind or deaf."

He Dong said calmly: "Let's talk."

The tiger will not fall apart when it falls, not to mention that He Dong is also a man of the hour.

For many years, under his leadership, the He family was known as the most famous family in Xiangjiang!

He Xin no longer hesitated and told the truth about Haojiang and the Gao family.

"Our Dr. Gao..."

He Dong sighed: "He was just born in the wrong era."

He thinks that Gao Mou is a hero in troubled times!

He Xin was stunned. He never expected that his uncle would have such a high opinion of Brother Yao.

"The most important thing is what do you think?"

He Dong did not comment on the dispute between the Fu family and the Gao family. In the years of his life, such fights were not uncommon.

If you want to be a banker, you must kill other bettors with their pants turned upside down, otherwise, how can you be a banker?

Do charity?

He Dongwen said softly: "I am your uncle after all. If you don't want to, I will show off my face. Dr. Gao will definitely show off my face."

"It's nothing more than owing a favor."

At his age, the favor was too great. If he couldn't pay it back, the rest of the He family would be responsible for it.

He Xin suddenly realized, yes, that's what it means to ask for brother.

If you use yourself as bait to make your uncle owe you a favor, then the people in your uncle's circle will naturally watch from the sidelines during this fight!

He Xin immediately understood that he had no control over this matter.

In the final analysis, it depends on the will of my brother and uncle.

Then he said respectfully: "I listen to my uncle."

He Dong chuckled: "Old Shi said you are a little fox, and that's true."

He Xin was a little shy: "Uncle, you saw it."

He Dong laughed heartily: "Okay, okay, there is a successor to the He family."

"You will definitely be the one to resist the He family's banner in the future."

He Xin said hurriedly: "Uncle's words are serious. I heard that Sanbo is already the lieutenant general and deputy commander-in-chief of the Bandit Suppression Command of the Hebei Reliao Border Region. He also serves as the Qinhu Port Command and bears the brand of Qinhu Transportation Command."

The third uncle mentioned by He Xin was named He Shili, the third son of He Dong, who was 42 years old at the time.

In January 1927, he was appointed as a member of the Royal Tank Regiment by He Tung's trustee. The following year, he gave up his British citizenship and entered Fountainbrook Artillery Military School for further study, and then returned to Hong Kong.

After returning to Hong Kong, He Dong personally wrote to the Northeast Marshal and recommended his son He Shili to him.

The young marshal personally gave instructions and responded via telegram: "Welcome without any permission, please order us to drive immediately."

He Shili then entered the Generalissimo's Mansion, with the title of Captain and Aide-de-camp of the Northeast Frontier Defense Force Commander's Office.

He Dong reciprocated the favor and expressed his willingness to help the Northeast Army purchase various artillery, establish 1-2 artillery divisions, and form two mechanical brigades to strengthen the Northeast Army's strength.

With the help of He Dong's strong financial resources, He Shili rose through the ranks and served successively as Lieutenant General and Senior Staff Officer of the National Government's Military Commission, Lieutenant General and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Logistics Department, and Supply Commander of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters.

He is currently the deputy commander-in-chief of the Joint Logistics Command, Lieutenant General.

"It's hard for your uncles and uncles to succeed in the business world."

He Dong knew his son very well, and he said to He Xin: "Xiaojiu, the way of money can make up for the loss."

"If you can't hold the silver paper firmly, everything will be mirrored."

“Keep your uncle’s teachings in mind.”

He Xin understood what He Dong said very well, because the promotion path of the third uncle He Shili reflected the importance of silver paper.

Under the smoke of war, He Shili rose to the top all the way, and he did all the logistics work.

If the He family wasn't rich and rich, where would such a good position come from?

"Our Dr. Gao has a big appetite and a big heart."

He Dong sighed: "It's a pity that my He family has no heirs."

In fact, the He family tree has deep roots and branches and leaves. What He Dong means is that no one in the younger generation is as distinguished as Gao Yao.

It’s really hard to compete!

He Xin was ashamed, ashamed and excited: "Uncle."

"Everything has two sides."

He Dong said: "If you do it well, you will reach the sky in one step. If you do it poorly, it will be like walking on a wire rope, and there will be an abyss below."

"Xiaojiu, think about it yourself."

He Xin pondered that he became successful because of his uncle's recommendation, but even so it was because he was brave enough.

Otherwise, there are many people recommended by Uncle De, so why can he earn a million a year by himself?

It's because I dare to fight the wind and waves!

He no longer hesitated, but said loudly: "Uncle, I want to follow Brother Yao and have a try."

"it is good!"

He Dong was not surprised, he said: "The road ahead is long and bright."

"Have the courage to fight. My uncle can survive for a few more years and will help you see the way forward!" (End of Chapter)
