Chapter 359 Return to the Arena
"Come on, let me introduce you to everyone. This is Wang Yan, also known as 'Brother Yan'. I believe everyone knows how Brother Yan treats our brothers, so I won't say more and say hello to Brother Yan."
Kwai Chung Police Station, Criminal Division Office, as Inspector Cao Rongjiang finished speaking, dozens of plainclothes police officers standing upright with solemn expressions but unable to conceal their excitement raised their hands. Dozens of people gathered together and shouted: "Hello, sir!"
"Hello, hello, please put your hands down." Wang Yan nodded with a smile and waved his hand: "You are looking up to me. I am just a looker now. Those of you who are not on the same level as me are Young man, there are people who are above me. How can I be a superior? We are all brothers, so we can be more casual. I don’t feel comfortable with you being too serious in the future. Let’s do whatever we want. Don’t leave yet, I’ll treat you all to a drink.”
Looking at the group of people who obeyed and dispersed, Cao Rongjiang twitched his lips. Although he had known and expected that Wang Yan was so prestigious, it was only when he saw it and felt it personally that he realized how powerful this young man in front of him was. If you can fight and have money, you are willing to spend money to win people's hearts. It would be strange if you don't stand out.
He used to be a player who refused to admit defeat. Because the oil and water here was good, he got the best of both worlds among the detectives, and was forced to follow the opening of the factory to recruit workers. However, as the population of Hong Kong has gradually increased in recent years, the number of new police officers recruited by the police academy every year has also increased, and the number of police officers assigned to him has also increased. The most important thing is that the efficiency of his factory is not good. On the one hand, there were an increasing number of police officers’ families, and on the other hand, the factory’s efficiency was decreasing. After holding on for more than two years, he finally couldn’t hold on any longer.
With no other choice, he chose to seek refuge with Wang Yan, and the factory was acquired and taken over by Long Teng. It's not anything else, but among so many people, Wang Yan is the richest and offers the most reasonable prices. The other detectives' offers were too low. He knew that the other detectives didn't have much money. But at that time, he would not be considerate of others and would only think that they were working together to eat him. It was also at this time that Lardboy came to the door and made a price without saying a word. He didn't let him lose too much, so he joined Wang Yan's army as a matter of course.
As for being targeted by other detectives, that's not something he should consider. Who is the boss of this thing and who has to worry about it? Wang Yan is taking care of it, so he is not afraid.
"Brother Yan was blocked this time? Otherwise, why would you have come to my side?" He received the call yesterday, telling him that Wang Yan would be transferred to work under him today.
"I'm sure." Wang Yan leaned against the table, took out a cigarette and gave him a cigarette. He let the detective who was two levels above him diligently light it for him, blew out the cigarette and said, "Originally, I was going to From the Tsuen Wan District Police Station, it turned out that those bastards Yan Tong and Lam Gang worked together to deliver messages to the foreign Japanese. Later, I made great efforts and was transferred here for a small inspection. But those great detectives."
It is now August 1953, a few days after the ceasefire agreement was signed, and he started planning to leave Sha Tau Kok last month. He contacted the Superintendent and Senior Superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Department, and for this reason, he also specially organized a lottery for herbal tea. The first and second prizes were taken by the Senior Superintendent and the Superintendent, and the third to ninth prizes were real. Lucky citizens. As a result, Yan Tong and the others took action behind his back and gave him money, and then they got Kui Yong.
Kwai Tsing District has not yet become independent from Tsuen Wan. If he goes to the District Police Station, even though he will be trying to flatter the foreign devils, in terms of influence, his influence will be much greater there. After all, as long as he has enough money, he can easily sideline the foreign inspector. Then the whole of Tsuen Wan will be his business, and he can openly study the other detectives here.
Of course, it was precisely because they thought of this situation that Yan Tong and the others stopped him desperately. There is nothing you can do if you have money at this time, because the foreign devils don't want to see that situation unless they give a lot of money and bribe many people, but that is obviously not cost-effective. If you really give it away like that, what's the point of raising a foreign devil? So I just took it like that and came to Kwai Chung.
Cao Rongjiang nodded: "What's Brother Yan's next plan?"
"What other plans can I have? Of course I have been promoted. I have to join the senior detective." Wang Yan patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, you go about your business. I'll find someone to get familiar with first." Get familiar with the situation.”
"Okay, Brother Yan, come to me anytime if you need anything." Cao Rongjiang said nothing and simply turned around and returned to his office. He is the highest officer here, and now there is someone who is nominally his subordinate, but is actually his elder brother. He is also awkward. As for what other subordinates think of him, he doesn't care. He wasn't the only detective who took refuge in Wang Yan, so what's the big deal?
Seeing Zeng Rongjiang leave, the other people who were pretending to be looking for work became a little restless and wanted to get close but didn't dare. Although there is no need for personality worship, it is undeniable that Wang Yan is a legend.
His resume is not a secret, and everyone in black and white knows his past. From the death of his parents to crossing the sea to Hong Kong alone, the best of the police academy has been able to subdue the big and small gangsters in Tsz Wan Shan and Sham Shui Po by one person, and the police found a way to balance the conflicts between the arrogant gangsters and the citizens. A trace of professional glory, starting from a small herbal tea bag business, it has become a famous first-class enterprise in Hong Kong across multiple industries, single-handedly improving the treatment of Chinese police officers.
In addition, as long as there is trouble that cannot be solved, Wang Yan has always been generous and enthusiastic within the normal and reasonable range. Some of the lower-level police officers were in urgent need of money, so he would provide them with loans at normal interest rates to help them tide over their difficulties. Some family members are terminally ill and waiting to die, but he will magically rejuvenate them and give them health. Even if other people under Inspector Hua come to visit him, he will help those who can, and his reputation for benevolence and justice spreads widely throughout Hong Kong and Kowloon.
Each one of these, one by one, has made Wang Yan's prestige what it is today.
Of course, legends are always legends, and the actual situation is not that exaggerated. If he helps low-level police officers solve troubles all day long, he will have too many fucking troubles. Life is always not easy. Who doesn't have a little mess? Therefore, he would only meet in person occasionally, and it had to be representative. Most of the rest were handled by Lardboy. As for curing diseases and saving people, that's when he was in a good mood and asked Lardboy to choose a difficult disease. Most of the time, some condolence money is given, or some loans are given.
Of course he has such a great reputation because of his own hype, otherwise his reputation might be famous, but it would be far from what it is today. As for the trees that are beautiful in the forest but will be destroyed by the wind, he is not afraid of that. The most important thing is the foreign devil. On the one hand, he sent a lot of money. On the other hand, these Yingguo gentlemen did not think that Wang Yan could escape their control, because the power was given by them, and it was only a matter of a piece of paper to take it away. , and they will not really watch him grow bigger and be full of confidence.
Seeing their looks, Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Okay, stop pretending, I don't eat people."
Hearing this, a group of people came over laughing. Asking some random questions is out of curiosity about idols and yearning for a higher level. These are all understandable. Wang Yan is approachable and easy to talk to.
Of course, I didn't forget about serious matters. As we chatted, we talked about the situation within the jurisdiction.
As I said before, his model in Ciyun Mountain is proven and indeed effective. But without his strength, there are still many people in other places who use their power to bully others, act unscrupulously and pretend to be superior. This is exactly the case in Kwai Chung. The situation on the streets has improved, but not much. Disorder within order seems to be more disturbing than complete disorder.
As for another model that allocates opium dens, noodle stalls, gambling stalls, brothels and other illegal venues based on the carrying capacity of the jurisdiction, it has been implemented here. After all, for this kind of thing that can make more money, you only need to open an opening and give instructions, and you don't even need the police to act as a middleman. The more powerful gangs will fight and do it on their own, and finally compromise with each other, and the riots will begin. A new division of interests soon formed.
After hanging out with the police station for a whole day, I invited all the uniformed and plainclothes police officers to have a drink in the evening. To put it bluntly, it could be a close meeting between idols and fans. Who knows how to market himself...
He boldly showed off his drinking capacity, and joined a group of police officers in drinking, swearing, and bragging. It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that he excused himself from lack of health, staggered into the car, and was driven home by a driver. .
Because he couldn't be in Sha Tau Kok all the time and would definitely return to the world, he had already prepared a house. It was a villa in Kowloon Tong, bought from a foreign devil who was going back to Yingguo. This villa was built in the 1920s, thirty years ago. The appearance is mottled with traces of time, but in fact the quality is still good. So he didn't care about the appearance, but dismantled and renovated the interior. The old outside and new inside, two worlds, have a strong contrast, and it still looks very good.
Although the decoration style he designed was from decades later and was neither foreign nor foreign, Miss Bai was a little uncomfortable with it. However, after recently moving in for a period of time, she gradually adapted to it, and it looked natural no matter how she looked. Especially when her good friends who are also married women come to play with her, they all look in admiration every time, which makes her even happier, because this was designed by her husband himself.
She is very satisfied with her current life. Her man knows a lot, knows a lot, can make money, is in good health, takes care of the family, dotes on her, and supports her in whatever she wants to do. It's not like her good friends who spend all day being bored at home and being wives, while the men are out having fun and drinking...
It was less than ten o'clock when I got home. As soon as I opened the door, I heard Miss Bai's voice: "Xiao Bai, go and see if dad is back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of heels tapping on the floor. Wang Yan turned around and closed the door with a smile. He walked out of the entrance hall in a few steps and looked at the small figure who was stunned because of his sudden appearance.
He blinked his big eyes and looked up at the tall visitor. After recognizing that he was his biological father, he smiled, pointed at his biological father, and turned to look at his biological mother on the sofa behind him with difficulty: "Ah, Mom, Dad ah……"
Although he is over two years old, his speech is not fluent and stumbling because his brain cannot keep up.
Wang Yan laughed, stepped forward and picked up his eldest son. Aba and Aba said a few words, and then came to Miss Bai's side: "Is Xiaoyue asleep?"
"Sleep, Aunt Li is watching. Oops, you smell of alcohol. Stay away from me and let go of my son. He will make you faint after a while." Miss Bai slapped Mr. Wang in disgust. , looking at his son running aimlessly, he sighed: "It's not good to have too many children. I've been very tired this day, but fortunately I have Aunt Li to help me."
"Didn't you know everything when I gave birth to Xiaobai? Why are you saying you're tired now?"
Miss Bai gave birth to another girl named Wang Yue, who was just one month old. She asked for it. He said that he wanted to find a companion for his eldest son, just in case he could inherit his property in the future. One child was not enough, so he had to have several more.
This is indeed the truth. There is only one Wang Yan in the world, and his empire cannot be inherited casually. Now two years after the last time, Longteng has started to grow like a snowball, covering beverage and food, machinery manufacturing, raw material production, international trade, finance, and recently it has begun to get involved in real estate. It is developing a piece of land in Yuen Long and recruiting talents. Start computer-related research. The old man is so debt-ridden that he is always on the verge of bankruptcy.
Affected by this, Huifeng and Standard Chartered banks are staring at Longteng every day, hoping that it will collapse so that they can receive high-quality assets. For other debtors, they hope to be able to repay the money first, but Long Teng... is better off going bankrupt. Those are all profitable businesses...
Wang Yan can definitely control it. As time goes by, it will only get bigger and bigger. It is absolutely impossible to really go bankrupt. But he started too early this time, and in the later stages his successor was really not good enough. Not to mention that he was still developing in the police force, so his son had to be involved anyway.
Miss Bai has considered it very carefully. Although it doesn't matter whether there is someone to succeed Wang Yan... But Miss Bai's choice is to have a baby as long as she likes it.
Hearing Wang Yan's words, Bai Yuechang curled her lips: "When I gave birth to Xiaobai, I was responsible for breastfeeding, so what else can I do? Now that Xiaoyue is born, you have so many things to do and have no time to take care of it. If it weren't for you, Aunt Li is here, and I feel like dying."
This is because he feels a lack of companionship and love... Of course Wang Yan will not explain it, because Miss Bai knows it, but she can't help complaining: "How about we find an experienced aunt to come back, so that you can only breastfeed again?" ”
"Forget it, it would be nice to have Aunt Li. I don't feel comfortable with too many people."
"Has your son taken a bath?"
"Isn't this waiting for you to come back? I have to wash with you, or I have to go to bed early, which makes me make trouble with him for a long time." Miss Bai looked at her eldest son who was hugging his father's thigh very intimately, and stretched out her long and slender hands. She tapped his forehead with her finger and muttered 'little heartless' before giving Wang Yan a wink and said, "It's getting late. Take him to take a bath and go to bed quickly."
Wang Yan laughed and picked up the silly eldest son beside him: "I'm going to take a bath."
Seeing the father and son walking away, Miss Bai smiled, stretched out, showing off her slim curves after giving birth to two children, turned around and returned to the room...
The next day, Wang Yan woke up naturally and went out for daily exercise. Kowloon Tong is quite nice, with low-rise bungalows and contiguous villas, which is very luxurious in a place like Hong Kong Island with very little flat land. After all, they are all the foreign devils' own people, and all the rich people live here. The environment is naturally good, and there is even a park. There is no mess, no inconvenience with water, etc.
To be honest, the biggest thing he has done so far is to take the lead in winning water freedom for ordinary citizens on Hong Kong Island. Although the water here is still not cheap, there is no limit. In other words, there will be no more water shortages in the future, which is generally a good thing.
The activities started, and when she got home, Miss Bai, who had worked hard at night and wanted to sleep in, woke up in despair, because the second girl was hungry and crying, and it was impossible to sleep. The eldest son Xiaobai also woke up. He kept struggling early in the morning, being held by his biological mother in the leg socket, struggling a little to practice his strength. There is only one nanny in the family, and she is busy making breakfast in the morning. You can't let your little one run around unattended. Even if you are very careful, there will inevitably be sharp objects, and accidents can easily happen if no one is watching. So every morning, the house is very lively.
After freeing his eldest son who was struggling to gain strength, Wang Yan took him to wash up and had a great time playing around.
After finishing their work, they handed over their second daughter to the nanny, and the family of three began to have breakfast.
"My dad called me this morning and asked us to have dinner together tonight."
"Okay, then I'll be back early." Wang Yan nodded, glanced at his son who was eating all over with a small spoon, rubbed his head, and told him to pay attention to his eating habits and not to make too much mess.
In fact, Baifanyu also lives in Kowloon Tong, so she knew he bought a house here and bought it with him. It is said that we are a family. Don't be too far away. It is more convenient to be closer and the value will increase in the future. Not only in Kowloon Tong, he also has houses in Repulse Bay, Deep Water Bay and other places on the island. He lives here and there, which is quite cool.
Since the end of the war, Baifanyu has tasted the benefits after more than doubling the amount of land he bought in North Point, and he is focusing on real estate. Especially after having a long talk with Wang Yan and hearing about the long-term trend analysis in the future, I became even more determined. Of course, the main reason is his snowballing growth in the past two years, his business talent, and his ability to double his earnings before. In two words, trust.
And another thing is that Baifanyu has a son. Through the wonderful hands of Dr. Wang, his illness was cured. In order to win the bid to have a son, this old boy devoted himself to sowing the seeds and found four girls who were as old as Miss Bai. Two successful conceptions, both sons, are now more than one year old.
As for the two girls who gave birth to sons, Baifanyu showed very well what it means to want them all. He just threw a big banquet and married two of them at once, which was quite a sight. It is also the current marriage law here that prohibits having more concubines. It is not illegal for him to have concubines.
Miss Bai couldn't be said to be happy, but she wasn't very unhappy either. She just didn't talk to Bai Fanyu for more than half a year, and she even tried to bully Wang Yan, both subtly and subtly...
To be honest, Mr. Wang is very innocent. This time, he was really honest and did not mess around with men and women. Because my father-in-law eats melons and falls, and he is more or less a little bit like that. The most important thing is that it was Miss Bai who pulled him to see her father-in-law. How can this be justified?
Fortunately, it was only for a while, and it was over. As for the white rice fish, after all the hard talk, I finally managed to coax my precious daughter. This article is finally over, and the family is back in harmony.
After dinner, I played with the energetic Xiaobai for a while, stretching his arms and legs to help him exercise. It wasn't until nearly nine o'clock that we went out and drove to Kwai Chung. It is definitely late for work at this time, but who cares about him?
When he drove to the police station, he didn't stop. He greeted two uniformed police officers and started walking around the precinct, with their hands behind their backs, swaying and looking very arrogant.
He has issued an order. From today on, anyone who disrupts order and pretends to be troublesome on the street will be arrested and beaten at the police station. At the same time, we began to dig out the backlog of cases and do a good job in classifying them. This was to continue the previous model and start to significantly increase the detection rate. As for those who disrupt order, those within the jurisdiction will be punished, and those outside the jurisdiction will also be punished.
Now he is no longer an unknown person, and many people are paying attention to his every move. The news that he was transferred to Kwai Chung is not a secret. Especially the gangsters in Kwai Chung area should know that if there is anyone who jumps out and is an eyesore, it is to challenge him. The status of the policeman is too low to mention. He is a newly rising big boss in the Chinese business circle. Can a small gangster humiliate him? Whoever jumps out will be destroyed.
In fact, from a general perspective, the source of the current chaos in Hong Kong and Kowloon is not the gangster leaders, large and small, because now the police and gangsters are a family, and the interests of both parties are tied up. You and I, the gangster gangs are still very cooperative with the police work. The real source of confusion comes from the sudden increase in internal immigration in recent years.
Although the famous large-scale escapes from Hong Kong have not yet occurred, smugglers traveling between the two places have never been idle, and the number of people coming from China has increased year by year. Most of them have no jobs, live in the walled city, and have a miserable life. As time goes by, a group of people who can't make any money when they are idle see those gangsters making more money and living a more comfortable life. How can they not stop thinking about it.
So some people joined other gangs, and some people formed their own group to keep warm, which was the prototype of the so-called big circle gang. Of course, the real development of the Big Circle Gang would not occur until the late 1950s, when they truly became an alternative force. Because most of the people who fled across the sea had experienced poverty and hunger, they were tempted to do evil, and their attacks were much more ruthless than ordinary gangsters. Therefore, they caused great damage to order.
This situation is easy to solve, as long as there are corresponding jobs. But it is also the most difficult. It is not easy for locals to work, let alone foreigners. It is foreseeable that there will be a lot of troubles in the future.
Of course, those are things that we need to pay attention to later. What we need to do now is to kill the short-sighted ones...
