As Hong Kong City was a prosperous commercial district in the 1990s, people who had a place in Tsim Sha Tsui were almost all big bosses who had everything to do with success.
As for the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant, which has been operating in Tsim Sha Tsui for decades and is extremely famous, the forces behind it are naturally not simple.
Even the big bosses in Hong Kong City never make trouble at the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant, let alone its Ma Chai.
But this night, the lights of Longfeng Restaurant were brightly lit, and the originally bustling restaurant hall was extremely quiet.
There is only one table in the restaurant hall.
The person sitting at the main seat was naturally Li Jiacheng, and next to Li Jiacheng, sitting at the same table were several big names in the underground forces in Tsim Sha Tsui.
According to the rules of the world, Li Jiacheng's meal was about peace and wine, and the host's family should also invite a few peacemakers to attend.
To put it bluntly, peacemakers are also used to prop up the scene.
Looking at the whole port city, there are only a few people who are qualified to allow these few people to attend and act as peacemakers.
"Brother Li, I think that mainland guy is afraid to come, right?"
Jiang Tianyang held a toothpick in his mouth and said casually with a hint of disdain.
In his opinion, businessmen like Li Jiacheng are too cautious. The other party is just a mainlander. Even with some background, he can still turn the world upside down in the Hong Kong City.
"Brother Jiang is right. Why put the table on the table to make peace? With just a word from the Li family, we brothers can convince this kid to apologize to the Li family head."
On the side, He Laojiu, who has tattoos on half of his face, echoed.
Although the two are underground bosses, to put it bluntly, compared to Li Jiacheng, they are not even a little bit behind.
The two of them had often been taken care of by the Li family, so it was naturally easy for Li Jiacheng to ask them to come forward.
It's just that neither of them thought about what the ability of this little guy from mainland China could make this financial giant even lower his face to show off and drink wine.
Although the peace wine was arranged in Li Zekai's name, everyone knew that the Li family was involved behind this matter.
"Needless to say, when I was doing business, I never experienced any kind of scene. It was just a talk and a drink. I, Li Jiacheng, still need to gain such a little face?"
Sitting at the banquet, Li Jiacheng said calmly:
"This time we are offering a drink to make peace, just because we don't want the matter to get too big. You are also here to remind me to give this young man from the mainland a beating, to let him know that my Li family is not a soft persimmon in this port city.
"
After hearing Li Jiacheng's words, several people understood instantly.
Before 1997, people in Hong Kong's political and business circles were in panic. The fact that Li Jiacheng was planning to prepare a committee had already made the whole city aware.
Several people at the table knew quite a bit about the recent scandal about the Li family.
Unlike those in the underground forces, Li Jiacheng needed a completely clean identity, especially during this critical period, so he even did not hesitate to show off his face and hold the peace ceremony in Li Zekai's name.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was seven o'clock in less than fifteen minutes.
Not only Li Jiacheng, but also the faces of several people at the table looked a little unhappy.
According to the rules of the road, there are no more than seven points in talking about harmonious wine.
This means that the party that offers to make peace will wait until seven o'clock, and if the other party does not come before seven o'clock, it means that they are completely broken and refuse to make peace.
Outside Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.
There were twenty or thirty people in the welcoming team, all beauties in cheongsam standing in front of the door, and several bodyguards in suits and leather shoes, waiting outside.
It can be said that the pomp provided by Li Jiacheng is generous enough.
But seeing this, Chu Tianyao still didn't show up.
The face of the old housekeeper who was responsible for receiving guests outside became more and more gloomy.
Didi!
At this moment, I heard the sound of a horn on the road outside the restaurant.
The two bodyguards in suits glanced at the car driving in front of the restaurant. They looked ugly and cursed:
"The Dragon Phoenix Restaurant is occupied today and will not accept outsiders. The taxi must leave immediately!"
The bodyguard in a suit stopped the taxi with a fierce look on his face.
But in the taxi, the middle-aged driver was quite frightened.
It seemed that the other person was not a good person at first glance, so he had no choice but to step on the brakes and look at the back seat of the car with some embarrassment.
"Sir, look at this situation...how about I charge you five yuan less?"
Looking at the troubled driver, Chu Tianyao smiled slightly, took out twenty Hong Kong dollars from his pocket and handed it to the driver.
"It's okay, I'll just get off the car here."
With that said, Chu Tianyao was about to open the car door, but unexpectedly a voice sounded from outside the car.
"Is this Mr. Chu here?"
Outside the taxi, a figure hurriedly ran over and looked at Chu Tianyao in the car with a look of surprise.
Although he has never met Chu Tianyao in person, the old housekeeper has seen Chu Tianyao's photos.
He never expected that the distinguished guests who asked the owner to spend 300,000 to book the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant and had a group of big shots waiting for him would actually come by taxi.
"Who are you?"
As soon as he opened the car door and got out, Chu Tianyao looked at the middle-aged man with half-white hair in front of him.
"I am the steward of the Li family. The head of the family asked me to wait here for Mr. Chu... Mr. Chu is here."
The old housekeeper grinned and looked down at his watch.
Six fifty-five.
Not too late!
If Chu Tianyao is late, it will be difficult to have a peace dinner tonight.
"Mr. Chu, my head has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me!"
The old housekeeper said to Chu Tianyao respectfully, and then turned to look at the two bodyguards in suits who stopped the taxi.
"Why are you still standing there? You didn't see the distinguished guest arriving. Why don't you hurry up and inform the owner of the house!"
Hearing what the old butler said, one of the bodyguards in suits nodded quickly and ran into the restaurant.
Chu Tianyao, on the other hand, followed the old housekeeper and walked slowly towards the door of the restaurant.
"Dear me, what kind of god is this? He can have such a grand scene in Longfeng Restaurant?"
Beside the street, the middle-aged driver sitting in a taxi looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
The Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant is the gold-selling den in Hong Kong City. It is estimated that there are not many people in the entire Hong Kong City who can book the entire restaurant for reception.
at the same time.
It's also in the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.
Seeing that seven o'clock was approaching, everyone who was still chatting and laughing in the banquet already had their faces downcast, and the atmosphere was extremely cold.
"This kid is so disrespectful!"
Jiang Tianyang slapped his hand on the table and couldn't help but said angrily.
"Isn't he just a mainland boy? I asked someone to kill him!"
He Laojiu also said angrily.
The Li family all offered a peace drink, but the other party dared to refuse. Wasn't this a slap in the face of the whole table in front of them?
Tap tap tap!
There was a sound of footsteps.
"Master, here we come...Chu Tianyao is here!"
At this moment, a bodyguard in a suit hurriedly came from outside the door.
