Chapter 514 Kowloon Walled City!

As Yang Ming's status and influence increased, honors and other things also came along.

The reason why the Governor's Office and the Secretary for Administration chose Yang Ming as a non-official Justice of the Peace was because they saw Yang Ming's current influence in Hong Kong.

Whether it involves more than one million employees or hundreds of thousands of families, Yang Ming's influence is really too great.

As for the Hong Kong Water Supply Company, it involves the drinking water problem of all citizens in Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong Electric Light Company involves the electricity problem of all people in Hong Kong Island.

The Hong Kong Bus Group even involves the public transportation problem of Hong Kong citizens.

. . .

Seeing the looks of Tang Shilian, Lin Xiuzhi, Zhou Kaixuan and others, it seems that they still care about these honorary titles.

On the contrary, Mai Lisi and others think that it is just like that, compared with the knighthood awarded by the Queen herself, it is far from it.

"The boss is now a knighthood, and his influence in Hong Kong is so great, a small Justice of the Peace is nothing." Li Caixin said directly.

Mai Lisi and others also meant that.

"Everyone, Li Caixin is right. However, reputation, no matter how big or small, has its benefits."

Historically, why do Hong Kong's wealthy care so much about reputation?

Because reputation can really bring substantial benefits.

In Yang Ming's previous life, Li Jiacheng gained fame in Hong Kong, and he was able to bring this fame back to China and gain trillions of wealth.

Not to mention Mr. Huo and others.

Reputation is not achieved overnight, but needs to be accumulated.

In addition to maintaining his original heart, Yang Ming has been accumulating reputation. At the critical moment, even the amount of wealth may not be able to match it.

"Except for Mai Lisi and Zhou Kaixuan, everyone else will go back to rest."

Ma Shimin, Li Caixin and others left first.

Ma Lisi and Zhou Kaixuan are left here.

In the eyes of the two, Yang Ming is getting more and more different.

At the beginning, Mai Lisi really thought that among the Chinese capital in Hong Kong, except for Bao Yugang, the most powerful one is Li Jiacheng.

If it weren't for the appearance of Mr. Yang, he would really join Li Jiacheng.

Judging from my current choices, Mr. Yang is still too much better.

"Since I am already a Justice of the Peace, I must really do something for Hong Kong."

"Boss, are you going to inspect the prison?" Zhou Kaixuan asked.

Many Justices of the Peace in Hong Kong go on regular inspections.

Among them, the most famous is of course the inspection of the prison.

There is a classic scene in Hong Kong prison movies where Justices of the Peace visit the prison. The prison administrators will gather the prisoners and say "Justices of the Peace are inspecting the prison. Do you have any complaints?"

The most famous prison in Hong Kong is of course Stanley.

However, Yang Ming will not inspect the prison.

"No, I want to go to Kowloon Walled City to see it."

Kowloon Walled City?

Mai Lisi and Zhou Kaixuan were so surprised that they were speechless.

Speaking of Kowloon Walled City.

It is really well-known in Hong Kong, and it is more famous than the Chongqing Mansion where Chung Chuhong's parents live.

Kowloon Walled City, also known as Kowloon Fortress, is a walled city located in the present-day Kowloon City District. It belongs to the Hong Kong Historic District and was demolished in 1993.

The history of Kowloon Walled City can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. It was originally a stronghold for defending against foreign enemies.

There is a Boundary Street to the north of Mong Kok, Kowloon, which divides the Kowloon Peninsula horizontally into two parts. The southern part of the street is called Kowloon, and the northern part of the street is the New Territories.

The eastern intersection of Boundary Street leads to Kai Tak Airport. To the north of Kai Tak Airport is the famous Kowloon Walled City, which is not governed by the mainland and Hong Kong, and is governed by the Y country.

Many people who broke the law in Hong Kong fled here and then settled down. Because there was no law to control here, chaos continued.

The entire Kowloon Walled City is only 6 acres in size. It was once a place occupied by Y country but still exercised territorial sovereignty by Z country. Its identity is very special.

It was originally agreed in the "ZY Extension of Hong Kong Boundary Special Convention" that Z country officials could still be stationed in Kowloon City and retain nearby docks for travel.

The Walled City thus became a "boundary within a boundary".

In the late 1940s, a large number of refugees poured into Hong Kong from South China and settled in Kowloon Walled City. The Governor's Office eventually gave up management, and the Walled City became an active area for social groups and a hotbed for various illegal activities.

In addition, since the Governor's Office did not recognize the qualifications of doctors from Country Z at the time, the Walled City also became a concentration of unlicensed dental clinics and counterfeit goods sales points.

Between 1973 and 1974, Hong Kong sent 3,000 police officers to enter the Walled City to eradicate the social forces in the Walled City.

The Walled City later "resurrected from the dead", and reinforced concrete houses were built like mushrooms after rain. Illegal expansion and illegal construction were serious, and the streets were as narrow as corridors.

Residents' water came from eight public water pipes or wells.

Because the buildings were completely unplanned, the environmental sanitation of the Walled City was poor.

In the early 1980s, it was estimated that there were 35,000 people living in the Walled City, and the crime rate was much higher than the average figure in Hong Kong.

In Yang Ming's previous life, he came to Hong Kong, and this place had long since become the Kowloon Walled City Park.

However, Yang Ming had seen it in movies and books.

He also often saw it in major newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong, which were basically news or synonyms of criminal incidents.

Under normal circumstances, no one wants to get close to such a place, especially people with status and position, who don't want to go to such a place.

Now Mai Lisi and Zhou Kaixuan actually heard that the boss was going to inspect this place, so what if something happened?

"Boss, that place is a no man's land. They are not under the management of the Governor's Office at all. What if something happens?"

Zhou Kaixuan was born in the lower class of Hong Kong. She knows more about the lower class. It is precisely because of that that she desperately yearns for the upper class. She hates that place and does not want to get close to it because she feels that it is an extremely unsafe place.

Now the boss's identity is not simple, there is no need to take risks.

As a Justice of the Peace, Sir Yang went to the prison for inspection, which was already a mission accomplished.

"Boss, I often read in newspapers before that the crime rate in those places is particularly high. I don't recommend you to go there." Mai Lisi also said.

Yang Ming said: "You don't worry. When I go to Kowloon Walled City, the Governor's Office will definitely notify them. When I go there, no one dares to touch me."

Mailisi and Zhou Kaixuan are still very worried.

"Wait until the Governor's Office has made arrangements, and I will go with you to see what the no man's land is like?"

Since the boss has been confirmed.

Mai Lisi and Zhou Kaixuan naturally didn't say anything else.

Mai Lisi went out first, Zhou Kaixuan was still here.

Looking at Zhou Kaixuan's worried look.

Yang Ming said: "They are also people, and many of them are even fellow countrymen from China. Why worry about them?"
