1967----

Tuen Mun Police Station----

Shi Zhijian handed the folded green police uniform and baton to the warehouse manager.

Through the iron window, the obese warehouse manager carefully inspected Shi Zhijian's removed police hat, clothes, belt, and baton, then raised his head and said coldly: "You can leave!"

Shi Zhijian smiled at the other party, turned and left.

A voice came from behind: "Is he the Shi Zhijian who was fired?"

"If it wasn't him, who else could it be? It's weird that he can still stay in the police force after offending Brother Kun!" the administrator said in a contemptuous tone.

"What a pity. I heard that he has only been employed for a month!"

"You're stupid, you're only going to go against Brother Kun if you have a funny brain!"

Shi Zhijian walked out of the door, and the voices behind him gradually became quieter.

The sun was high in the sky, and the weather was still hot in October. Shi Zhijian was wearing a white sweatshirt and black trousers, and his hair was stuck to his left forehead, covering his sutured wounds.

"Ajian!"

"Uncle!"

Two voices sounded at the same time.

Shi Zhijian turned around and saw two people standing in the corner outside the police station, a woman holding a girl.

The woman was wearing a floral blouse with coarse wide trousers underneath, a cigarette in her mouth, and a fierce look between her brows.

The little girl was about seven or eight years old. She was lively and cute, with big twinkling eyes and an extremely delicate face. She was a perfect beauty, but she was a little yellow and thin.

"Sister, Meibao, why are you here?"

"Mom picked me up from school and came here to see you." The little girl Jiang Meibao blinked her innocent big eyes and looked at Shi Zhijian.

"Ajian, are you okay?" Shi Yufeng took off the cigarette in her mouth, crushed it on the wall, and put the remaining half into the cigarette case.

"It doesn't matter, I don't really like being a police officer anyway!"

"That's good! You're too weak-tempered. I told you before that you're not suitable for being a police officer, and now it's true!" Shi Yufeng shouted, "But you don't have to be afraid. You can rest at home for a few days. I'll tell you.

And Dakoujiu will introduce you to a few more jobs--as long as you have hands and feet in Hong Kong, you will definitely not starve to death!"

Shi Zhijian knelt down and pinched Bao'er's face, "Mom said that I should rest at home. Maybe, from now on, my uncle can stay at home with you to do your homework!"

Baoer chuckled: "I really like you to accompany me to do my homework, but my mother will be very sad if she says you can't become a police officer!"

"Then what should I do? How can Mabel comfort her little uncle?"

"I have a way, Meibao is very smart." Bao'er raised her little face, "Uncle, please stretch out your hand."

"do what?"

"You'll find out later."

Shi Zhijian stretched out his hand.

Bao'er put her little hand on his, let go, and a green mint candy fell on the palm of her hand.

"Little uncle, if you are sad, eat this candy. This candy is numb, sweet, and delicious!" Baoer said in a milky voice.

Shi Zhijian smiled, looking at Bao'er's innocent eyes, his heart warmed, "Uncle, thank you, Mabel! What should I do? Mabel gave me such a precious gift, how can I thank you?"

"You're welcome, Mabel. Mabel just wants her uncle to be happy."

"Hey, I promise you, if I eat this candy, I will be very happy!" Shi Zhijian picked up Bao'er, "But before I can be happy, I have to lift Mei Bao high!"

"Giggle!" Bao'er was lifted high by Shi Zhijian facing the sun.

"Okay, let's go!" Shi Yufeng felt relieved when she saw her brother acting like this. As it was approaching noon, she had to rush back to cook and work in the afternoon.

Shi Zhijian nodded and took the lead to walk out with Bao'er in his arms.

Shi Yufeng followed behind, carrying Bao'er's small schoolbag, holding up one of her left legs, and followed him up and down.

Someone nearby saw it and couldn't help but shake his head: "She is a pretty girl, but it's a pity that she is lame!"

When Shi Yufeng heard this, she turned around and shouted at the man: "Lame your mother's head! Your mother is the cripple! Your whole family is lame!"

The man was scolded so badly that he didn't dare to reply.

Shi Yufeng, nicknamed "Lame Phoenix"!

Shek Kip Mei, the first person to curse in the street!



The three of them left the police station, and there were people coming and going on the road. Some were setting up stalls to do business, and some were specialized in shaving their heads.

On the road, rickshaws were running back and forth, and the drivers shouted: "Borrow the road! Borrow the light!"

Trams jingled and competed with rickshaws for business.

Women wearing cheongsam, with wavy hair permed and sprinkled with toilet water, swayed on the street, forming a beautiful scenery.

Hong Kong in the 1960s,

The alternation of old and new!

In a period of great change!

To be honest, Shi Zhijian didn't know how he came into this world. Although he was an orphan in his last life, he had a successful career. However, in this life, he lived in a poor family. His parents died very early and he has been living with his sister.

Not long ago, eighteen-year-old Shi Zhijian borrowed money to become a military policeman, thinking that he could improve his life. Unexpectedly, because a woman offended the military and police leader Jiang Kun, he was framed by Jiang Kun and was kicked out of the police force.

In this day and age, if you can't be a police officer, what can you do?

For others, this is a difficult problem, but for Shi Zhijian, it is easy to solve.

Although today's police seem very majestic, Shi Zhijian knows that these are just autumn grasshoppers. In just a few days, the "Independent Commission Against Corruption" will soon be established!

What's more----

In the 1960s, Hong Kong was filled with gold and made countless rich people and tycoons!

Mr. Huo!

Superman Li!

What a gambling king!

King Dong!

There are countless heroes and heroes emerge in large numbers!

Isn't it possible that Shi Zhijian can't break out of the world?!

Just when Shi Zhijian was daydreaming, suddenly "beep beep", a black Beetle car rushed from the front, Shi Zhijian hurriedly dodged while holding Bao'er.

Shi Yufeng yelled at the butt of the car: "I'm going to kill you! Why are you driving so blind?!"

The car suddenly stopped and stopped on the side of the road. A head popped out of the window. It was a man with a sinister expression. He glanced at Shi Yufeng, then at Shi Zhijian, then spat on the ground sinisterly, and said to the driver:

"drive!"

The driver restarted the car and drove towards the police station, asking: "Brother Kun, is that guy Shi Zhijian?"

"If it's not him, could it be someone else?"

"It seems that he is here to resign today."

"What are you resigning from? You were kicked out by me!"

"Yes, yes, I was kicked to death by you, Brother Kun!"

"But I'm still very angry!" Jiang Kun glanced at the rearview mirror. Shi Zhijian was comforting Shi Yufeng and her daughter, and asked them if they were scared. "A loser like him dares to go against me. From now on, my face will be like that."

Where to put it?"

"Then Brother Kun, what are you going to do?"

"Since you want to play, play him to death!" Jiang Kun's face showed a hint of ruthlessness, "I heard that he borrowed a loan shark from Jin Yabing in order to become a policeman, so let's tell Jin Yabing the news that he was fired and couldn't become a police officer.

Ya Bing!"

"I understand! Jin Ya Bing is not someone to be trifled with. If you don't have money to pay back, you will risk your life!"

"As long as you understand, get it done right away! Remember, you have to be quick! I want to see this guy jumping on the street and being crippled by me! Hehe!" Jiang Kun said with a sinister smile on his face.



"Is it important to have money? Are you driving a car and reincarnating? I'm going to attack you! If you injure my daughter, I have to fight with you!" Shi Yufeng stood on the road, with one hand on his hip and the other pointing at him.

Swearing in the car.

Shi Zhijian already knew that the car just now was Jiang Kun's car, but he did not tell his sister Shi Yufeng this, and he breathed a sigh of relief after asking if they were okay.

As for Jiang Kun's account, it will have to be settled sooner or later!

Shi Zhijian waved to call a rickshaw, but Shi Yufeng stopped him and said he would save some money if he could.

Shi Zhijian didn't listen to her and ordered two cars anyway.

A car from Tuen Mun, New Territories, to Shek Kip Mei, Kowloon, costs one yuan and eighty cents, and two cars cost almost four yuan. This made Shi Yufeng feel pain in her body. She touched the money in the handkerchief around her waist and figured out how to dig it out in the meal.

.

But Bao'er was very happy. She clapped her little hands while sitting in the car and looked around with her big eyes, as if everything she saw was strange, because she usually had no chance to ride in a rickshaw.

As soon as Shi Zhijian got in the car, a newsboy ran over cleverly, "Sir, buy a newspaper and sit in the car and read it!"

Shi Zhijian glanced at it and saw that there were seven or eight kinds of newspapers stuffed in the cloth bag carried by the newsboy, the most conspicuous ones were "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily".

"Is there a "Tiger Newspaper"?!"

"Yes!" The newsboy took out a newspaper with his little hands covered with ink and handed it to Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian took the newspaper and put five cents into the newsboy's hand.

Shi Yufeng could see clearly and felt another pain in her body. Five cents was enough to buy a big radish!

As the rickshaw rustled along the asphalt road, Shi Zhijian opened the newspaper and read it.

In this era, many Hong Kong people were not very literate, so many newspapers liked to serialize some easily understandable doll paintings. Only slightly higher-end newspapers had large-format editorial articles or serialized martial arts novels.

The more advanced one is the English version of "The Tiger". This kind of newspaper is basically aimed at the upper-level people of Hong Kong's upper class, who can understand English and care about the current political and economic affairs of Hong Kong. The British also like to publish in this kind of newspaper.

It conducts some government bidding and infrastructure projects.

This method of publishing "government tenders" in English newspapers directly shuts out many Hong Kong people. It is difficult to get money from the government!

Shi Zhijian glanced at it and saw that there were many opportunities to make money in the newspaper. For example, the British Hong Kong government was planning to open eight more bus routes in Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok, and was now inviting tenders for powerful transportation companies.

In addition, the British Hong Kong government is preparing to renovate the severe punishment prison located at 99 Tung Tau Wan Road, Stanley, Hong Kong Island, and is now inviting tenders from powerful builders.

Shi Zhijian knew after only a few glances that there was no chance, and the words "strong" simply knocked him to the ground.

Since the right path doesn't work, let's see if there are any opportunities to make a fortune by taking a sideways approach.

Shi Zhijian turned over the newspaper and saw the favorite activity of Hong Kong people - horse racing!

I looked at the content carefully again, and suddenly my eyes lit up.
