Money can make the world go round

"Demolition document, you want to demolish the Kowloon Walled City." Looking at the big word "DEMOLITION" on the top of the document, Mr. Hong didn't believe his eyes.

The Kowloon Walled City has been standing in Hong Kong for hundreds of years. No matter the ghosts, the Manchu government or the GM government, there is nothing they can do about it. How come today, the police dare to risk the disobedience of the world and demolish the Kowloon Walled City?

"Yes, the time is tomorrow. The demolition team will gather outside at nine o'clock and start on time at 12 o'clock. The evacuation task is expected to be completed in one hour and the Kowloon Walled City will be demolished at 2 o'clock at the latest." Chen Jiaju looked at Mr. Hong and said.

"The evacuation was completed within an hour. Not that I look down on you, but there are 50,000 of us. You can't drive us away in an hour, let alone a year."

Faced with Chen Jiaju's threat, Mr. Hong suddenly stood up and his eyes shot towards Chen Jiaju like lasers.

"Crash."

Seeing Master Hong getting angry, dozens of well-prepared men rushed in and surrounded Chen Jiaju and others.

"Master Hong, you are getting old, and times have changed. The Kowloon Walled City has been able to stand for decades, not because you have tens of thousands of villagers, but because of the game of the external environment."

There are historical reasons for the emergence of the Kowloon Walled City, but the Eagle Army occupied Xiangjiang and turned it into a colony. In order to make the Tatar government in power at that time look good,

The signing of the "Special Article on the Expansion of Hong Kong Boundary Sites" indicates that Hong Kong is leased and not occupied. However, the lease period is a bit long, 99 years.

At the same time, in the treaty, an area was set aside for Tatar officials to manage and an office was established, which was equivalent to the Tatar government's consulate in Hong Kong. This area was the Kowloon Walled City.

In the following decades, Tatar officials continued to work in the Kowloon Walled City. Until 1911, with the fall of the Tatar government, the officials lost power and withdrew from the Kowloon Walled City and returned to the mainland.

In the following decades, due to the warlords' melee, the mainland government was unable to manage the Kowloon Walled City, and the Eagle Countrymen were unable to manage the Kowloon Walled City according to regulations, so it became a no-care zone in Hong Kong and a gathering place for gangs and refugees.

.

Gui Lao wanted to deal with this mainland enclave in Xiangjiang, and sent thousands of police officers into the walled city to demolish it, but the residents of the walled city used force to fight back.

There are many reasons why this happens.

On the one hand, the Kowloon Walled City has become the last refuge for homeless people. Facing the forced demolition by ghost guys and not providing them with a way out, they must of course risk their lives to attack the Eagle Army.

Because of World War II, there were weapons inside the Kowloon Walled City, not only pistols, but also rifles, submachine guns and even machine gun grenades.

In a small space, it may not be possible to deal with the army, but it is more than enough to deal with the police.

The police at that time were not what they would be a few decades later. Because the ghosts did not trust the Chinese, the ordinary police did not have weapons. Even the plainclothes armed with weapons only had small pistols. They would definitely not be the opponents of the villagers when they entered the Kowloon Walled City.

Coupled with the ghost's rat-throwing weapon.

Kowloon Walled City is strictly an enclave in the Mainland.

If the ghosts send out troops, under the cover of armored vehicles and artillery, they can easily defeat them.

But at the same time, Xiangjiang is also an enclave of ghosts.

The mainland has heavy troops stationed in the northern part of the New Territories. It would be a piece of cake for the Gui Lao to attack the Kowloon Walled City, and it would be a piece of cake for the People's Liberation Army to attack Hong Kong.

Without authorization from the mainland, Gui Lao could only send police into the walled city to demolish it, but did not dare to send troops. Even after the police force was reorganized, ordinary police officers were equipped with guns, and the Flying Tigers were even equipped with heavy weapons.

Logically speaking, dealing with the Kowloon Walled City is a piece of cake. If you want to fight, you can defeat it even without sending out troops.

But because there are armed personnel in the walled city, forced demolition will cause a lot of casualties. If it was a few decades ago, the demolition would be forced demolition, but now!

After decades of development, the mainland's military and national strength have greatly improved, from millet plus rifles to aircraft, tanks and artillery. The navy may be weaker than the Eagle Country, the air force is the same, but the army far exceeds it.

In addition, the lease of Hong Kong Island is coming, Hong Kong will no longer be under the rule of Gui Lao, and there is even less interest in the Kowloon Walled City.

This is the reason why Kowloon Walled City has been preserved to this day. It is not that the people in the Walled City are great, but because they are lucky and no one pays attention to them. Once they do, their doom will come.

Knowing this situation, Chen Jiaju didn't care at all about Mr. Hong's threat. He pushed away Ma Zai who was blocking the way without fear, and left the teahouse lobby with Dazui, Fanjiao and others.

When Lin left, he looked back at Mr. Hong who was hiding deep in the crowd and said, "Master Hong, since you don't have to drink wine as a penalty for toasting in Kowloon Walled City, don't blame us for being rude.

After eight o'clock tonight, the Kowloon Walled City will cut off water and electricity, and entry and exit will be prohibited. You'd better ask the villagers to prepare food in advance, otherwise you won't be so hungry that you can't even stand up tomorrow."

"Master Hong, do you want to take them as hostages?" Seeing Chen Jiaju and others leaving arrogantly, one of the uncles, Mr. Yun, suggested in a low voice: "If the police force really demolishes them, we have room for maneuver."

"The two countries are at war without killing each other, let alone this is just a forced demolition. We are reasonable, but if they are detained, the nature will change." Hong Ye shook his head and refused:

"Brothers, let's get ready, get everyone ready. If the police really come to demolish it and can't stop it, call up everyone in the village and put women and children at the front. I don't believe it."

They dare animals."

"clear!"

All the elders present nodded, expressing their agreement with Master Hong's plan.

"Also, don't leak what happened just now. The forced demolition announcement must not be known to the people in the village." Picking up the demolition announcement, he looked at the case above. The compensation plan was 1 to 2.5, and even if there was no housing, he would be resettled.

Mr. Hong knows about public rental housing.

If this resettlement plan is leaked, at least half of the people in the village will lose their fighting spirit and raise their hands to accept the resettlement plan given by the police. In that case, the Kowloon Walled City will really be over.

Without human shields, how can we deal with the demolitions by the police?

"clear!"

Everyone present nodded to show their understanding.

"Director, Mr. Hong from the walled city has rejected our good intentions and is unwilling to demolish the property peacefully." Chen Jiaju came out of the walled city to meet his men outside, then picked up his cell phone and dialed Lei Weidong's number.

"Let brothers be prepared. After 8 o'clock in the evening, all the passages of Kowloon Walled City will be blocked. Water and electricity will be cut off on time. Tomorrow, the Walled City will be demolished. During this period, all people coming out of Kowloon Walled City will be arrested. No questions asked.

Are they old people, women and children?"

"clear!"

Chen Jiaju stood at attention and said he had received the order, "Director, I gave the demolition notice to Mr. Hong. I am worried that they will keep it secret and prevent the villagers from knowing our resettlement plan."

"Don't worry, the helicopter is ready. One hundred thousand resettlement plans have been loaded on it. They will be airdropped to Kowloon Walled City in a short while. It is impossible for Mr. Hong to block the news." Lei Weidong smiled and hung up.

Got the phone call.

"It seems that you really want to bulldoze the Kowloon Walled City. I thought you were just talking and would back down when the situation comes." Yang Jianhua, who was sitting opposite, said as he watched Lei Weidong order the helicopter to be dispatched.

"Let's start tomorrow at 12 noon!" Lei Weidong picked up the teacup and said calmly, "I do what I say. Why, don't the higher-ups not want to bulldoze the Kowloon Walled City?"

"How is it possible? How can this cancer remain?" Yang Jianhua shook his head, "After confirming the return of Hong Kong, we have repeatedly asked the ghosts to bulldoze the Kowloon Walled City, but they made excuses to refuse. Apparently they wanted to wait until after 1997.

article.

You can say that you have solved our problem this time."

"Indeed!" Lei Weidong nodded,

"With Gui Lao's peeing, if the Kowloon Walled City is pushed to after 1997, it really won't be demolished even if it wants to be demolished. You know, on the Internet more than 20 years later,

I don’t know how many keyboard warriors lament the demolition of the Kowloon Walled City, thinking that it is a miracle left over from history and should be protected and should not be demolished.

As for the Kowloon Walled City harboring filth and becoming a paradise for criminals, that is not something they have considered."

"The above highly praises your proposed northern development strategy. Coupled with the changes in traffic regulations in Hong Kong, it will be easier for Xiangjiang to integrate into the mainland in the future. Unfortunately, it will take a long time. The time required for the northern development is measured in ten years."

Yang Jianhua said with some regret.

"If you don't have long-term concerns, you will always have immediate worries. Now Hong Kong can ask for land from the sea, but with the reduction of Victoria Harbor and the rise of environmental protection forces, it will become more and more difficult to reclaim the sea in the future."

Lei Weidong sighed:

"In order to improve people's livelihood in Hong Kong and prevent generations of poor people from living in public rental housing of tens of square meters, we can only develop the north and move the population northward."

Many people say that housing prices in first-tier cities such as Shanghai and the capital are expensive, not much lower than those in Xiangjiang.

But what I don’t deny is that.

Although housing prices in first-tier cities in the Mainland are expensive, most people own their own real estate. Even migrants who do not have real estate in first-tier cities still have a place to live in their hometown.

Don’t miss Xiangjiang!

Those living in public rental housing and cage housing really have no way out.

In addition, the cemetery is leased.

Many people can't afford to live, not to mention die, and they don't even have a place to put a memorial tablet."

"Mr. Lei, we have known each other for more than ten years. What can I say about you? You really don't want to be a capitalist." Yang Jianhua sighed as he watched Lei Weidong point out the country.

“Usually capitalists squeeze workers hard for profit and won’t stop until the marrow is squeezed out. Better capitalists are kinder to workers.

While taking away profits, workers can also have some soup.

But even red capitalists like Huo Daheng do business with profit as their main purpose.

But capitalists like you." Yang Jiahua shook his head and sighed: "Only those capitalists who destroyed their families and defended their country during the war can compare with you."

“Maybe because I started from scratch and never forgot my roots, and because it was so easy to make a lot of money, I wanted to do something interesting. Money is something that I can’t bring with me when I’m alive, and I won’t take it with me until I die.

In this case, it is better to gain some fame.

This has been the case for my whole life. I can be an official, but there is no need to think about becoming a high official. But if some of my descendants are willing to enter politics and are capable, they will.

Relying on the foundation I laid, it is easy to reach a high position." Lei Weidong said truthfully.

"Indeed, Mr. Lei, the things you have done have benefited more than a million people, and your contribution to the country is limitless. You don't need it now, but the country will definitely remember what you have done, and when your descendants enter

Politics."

Forefathers planted trees for future generations to enjoy the shade. Yang Jianhua felt a little sad for Lei Weidong's descendants.
