The Hongmen bosses all looked at each other in shock, finding it hard to believe what Yan Xiong said.
In their minds, Li Zhaotian, a powerful and wealthy man who dominated Hong Kong, was actually defeated and imprisoned by Shi Zhijian?!
At this moment, three words were written on everyone’s faces:
I don't believe it!
…
At this time, the lobby fell into an eerie silence.
For those who have not been back to Hong Kong for many years, Yan Xiong's words are really shocking. A man as powerful as Li Zhaotian could be defeated and imprisoned by this gentle young man in white. What a joke!
After Yan Xiong said this, he said no more, sat down again, and looked at these big guys with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
In Yan Xiong's view, these elderly people have lived a comfortable life for too long and have no idea what is going on outside.
In Hong Kong, mentioning Shi Zhijian's face, or his name Yan Xiong, would definitely be a thunderbolt, but here it is silent.
No wonder I felt depressed as soon as I came to Hongmen. The aging of a community is very scary. Without the input of fresh blood, the future will only lead to death.
As a Hongmen boss, Situ Xiong knew the details of Shi Zhijian. Seeing those Hongmen bosses, including Lin Bao, who had been unruly in front of him, deflate in front of him, he felt so relieved.
The reason why Situ Xiong did not introduce Shi Zhijian's specific identity in detail was for this purpose.
As he has grown older in the past few years, these veteran helmsmen have been acting against his will one by one. Not only do they not listen to his words, some even make small moves behind his back.
Not to mention outsiders like Lin Bao, even the son-in-law Zheng Wentai in front of him is sometimes unreliable! This sentence is absolutely correct when people's hearts are separated from each other!
"Okay! Don't talk anymore. Today we in Hongmen have a banquet with Mr. Shi Zhijian. This is a great event. I hope everyone can have a good time and drink!" Situ Xiong stood up and said with a smile.
Some big guys became quiet, and some others said angrily: "Even if you are really sharp, what's the big deal? This is New York, USA, not that tiny place like Xiangjiang!"
"Yes, especially because he offended the white people, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us in Hongmen to do so in the future!"
Others began to echo: "That's absolutely true! Fortunately, the police haven't come to the door yet, otherwise our Hongmen would have suffered a big loss this time!"
Situ Xiong only felt that these guys were thinking too much. Even if those ghost police officers were dissatisfied, they would not come to the door so quickly. After all, this is Chinatown, and Hongmen still has some weight!
Just when he was about to speak, someone suddenly ran in at the door in a panic, shouting: "No! Something big has happened! The police are here!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Situ Xiong felt that he was like a crow, why did he say what he said?
Lin Bao even exclaimed: "Look, there's an accident, isn't it? The police are dispatched, we are in trouble in Hongmen!"
Everyone stood up one after another and looked at the door with frightened faces.
Shi Zhijian was still sitting there contentedly, holding the tea cup.
Yan Xiong half pulled his buttocks up, but when Shi Zhijian didn't get up, he sat down again.
Axe-Jun stood up and quietly walked behind Shi Zhijian, ready to stand ready.
"Please be patient, everyone, we are guests from afar!" Zheng Wentai saw a panic in the hall and Situ Xiong was still in a daze. As his son-in-law and the second-in-command of the Hongmen, he stepped forward to take charge of the overall situation.
Sure enough, after he yelled like this, everyone calmed down and looked at him together.
Zheng Wentai said: "Mr. Shi, please sit down and rest first! My father-in-law and other big men will accompany me to meet those white policemen!"
But before Zheng Wentai finished speaking, he heard a voice saying: "You don't have to go out to see me, I came by myself!"
While he was talking, he saw a white police officer with a fat head, big ears, and red hair walking in with a team of people in a swaggering manner.
Seeing this person, everyone in Hongmen took a deep breath!
Lin Bao first screamed: "New York Police Commissioner--Grant!"
Grant is famous in Chinatown, as he is a famous "white-faced ghost" who eats people without spitting out their bones!
Once, the Vietnamese gang accidentally injured a white policeman. Grant led a large force to surround the Vietnamese gang. As a result, the Vietnamese gang was blocked for seven days and seven nights, without food or water, and they complained endlessly!
In the end, the prisoner had to be handed over, and Grant extorted a large amount of "security fees."
At this moment, everyone including Situ Xiong, as soon as they saw that it was "White-faced Ghost" Grant, they knew that today's matter was serious!
Grant is famous for being "unfortunate" and "cruel". Now that he is here, Hongmen will definitely bleed a lot this time!
Situ Xiong was getting older and was a little unwilling to be involved in this kind of lawsuit, so he secretly asked his son-in-law Zheng Wentai to come forward.
Zheng Wentai despised his father-in-law's pursuit of advantages and avoidance of disadvantages, but he had to go forward with a smile on his face, thinking about his words in his mind while facing Grant.
Grant put his hands behind his back, glanced around wildly, and said, "Which one is Shi Zhijian from Hong Kong?"
Everyone looked at the place where Shi Zhijian was sitting.
Shi Zhijian was calm and still drank tea, as if he hadn't seen what was happening in front of him.
Grant also saw Shi Zhijian and narrowed his eyes.
Zheng Wentai stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, Director Grant, is it because of the car gang incident today? Please listen to my explanation..."
Grant ignored Zheng Wentai who came up to him, but went straight to Shi Zhijian and said: "I am here today indeed because of the motorcycle gang incident - mainly to come here in person to say sorry to Mr. Shi Zhijian!"
In the astonished gaze of everyone, the famous "White-faced Ghost" Grant actually bowed and apologized to Shi Zhijian.
"That's right, it was my poor management that allowed the speedsters to take advantage of it and disturbed Mr. Shi's enjoyment! It left a bad impression on you! In fact, we New York people are very kind and hospitable!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this!
They all couldn’t understand what was happening in front of them!
I originally thought that I was here to ask questions, but who knew that I was actually here to apologize to Shi Zhijian!
And the one who apologized was the ghost chief who made countless gangs afraid of him!
Oh my God, what on earth is going on?
Not to mention Zheng Wentai, Lin Bao and others, even Situ Xiong and others looked shocked.
Looking at Shi Zhijian again, facing Director Grant's apology, he raised his head, looked at the fat white man, and said calmly: "Forget the apology! But what do you mean by bringing so many people here? Do you know that you scared my friend?
!”
How dare you scold Grant in person?
Zheng Wentai, who was nearest, almost fainted!
Situ Xiong also felt like his eyes were blurred!
Others even took a breath of air-conditioning, thinking that I'm going to attack you, this is so boring!
But--
"You're right! I didn't think well! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Come on, all of you, please get out!" Grant ordered to his men.
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene almost fell down!
"Mr. Shi, what do you think now? I'm the only one here, and I hope you can accept my apology!" The fat Director Grant smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.
"Very good, you did a good job!" Shi Zhijian was not impressed by Grant's expression.
To be precise, Shi Zhijian had already guessed that there would be such an ending.
Originally, Shi Zhijian was unwilling to call the police this time when he encountered a motorcycle gang, because he knew that if he called the police, the result would be the same as in Hawaii.
Ever since he learned that Shi Zhijian came to the United States, Comrade Wang Fugui (Rockefeller) was determined to make Shi Zhijian owe him a huge favor, and the more favors the better.
Shi Zhijian couldn't bear it anymore and deliberately avoided Rockefeller's "entertainment".
Unfortunately, Shi Zhijian still underestimated Rockefeller's powerful capital power in the United States.
As a prominent family in the United States, the Rockefeller family is simply the uncrowned king of the United States. The family's influence has already penetrated all aspects of the United States.
Of course, a police chief like Grant can only flatter and obey. When he heard that Mr. Rockefeller's good friend, Shi Zhijian from Hong Kong, had happened in Chinatown, New York, Chief Grant immediately realized that the opportunity had come!
At this moment, he didn't care about the thirty-some crippled white compatriots at all, but was thinking about how to flatter this Chinese Mr. Shi!
As for Shi Zhijian's true identity, he didn't bother to know, and he didn't want to know. It was enough to know that the other party was someone whom Mr. Rockefeller valued very much!
At this time, Zheng Wentai, who was taking charge of the overall situation on behalf of Situ Xiong, had hurried over and shouted: "Director Grant, there may be some misunderstanding between us - I want to explain it to you..."
Who would have thought that Grant, who was originally so kind, suddenly straightened his back, looked like a police boss, and looked sideways at Zheng Wentai: "Who are you? Didn't you see that I was talking to Mr. Shi?"
Zheng Wentai was stunned and couldn't help but said: "I am Zheng Wentai of Hongmen, and I want to explain to you our Hongmen and the Speeder Party...
"Explanation? Is there any explanation for this?" Grant said with an arrogant expression and a firm attitude, "It's all the fault of those motorcycle gangs! They are all black sheep. They usually ride motorcycles everywhere and do evil. Many people are right.
They have deep complaints! Now Mr. Shi is cleaning up garbage for the people and cleaning up garbage in New York City. He is our hero! And you Hongmen--"
Grant smiled at Zheng Wentai and others for the first time: "They are all good people! They deserve praise for eliminating evil and promoting good!"
Zheng Wentai and others were all stunned!
Is such a serious matter solved like this?
Not only did Hongmen not suffer any loss, but they also became heroes?
After Grant said this, he ignored Zheng Wentai, continued to approach Shi Zhijian, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shi, you see I have finished my apology. There are still many things in the police station waiting for me to go back and deal with. I will take the first step."
Is that possible?"
"Go! Go!" Shi Zhijian waved his hand.
Grant walked past Zheng Wentai and walked outside.
Zheng Wentai was left standing there blankly, the corners of his eyes twitching.
The other big guys present were also astonished.
Situ Xiong was even more surprised!
He knew Shi Zhijian's true identity, but he didn't expect that Shi Zhijian would be so famous that the Commissioner of the New York Police Department would come over to fawn over him! What's the point of this?!
"Director Grant, did he... take the wrong medicine?" Lin Bao said in surprise.
"Yes, otherwise it shouldn't be like this!"
"Who is this Shi Zhijian? Then why is Grant so respectful to him?" The four elders and others were surprised.
Only Zheng Wentai frowned slightly, wondering if Shi Zhijian's identity had been leaked. After all, Shinhwa Group was considered a big company.
"How famous can a Hong Kong company be?"
At this time, something felt wrong in the lobby. Everyone looked at Shi Zhijian, and the words Yan Xiong had said before came to mind again, "What does Li Zhaotian mean? He was beaten to the ground by our boss!"
"If what Detective Yan said is true, then this Shi Zhijian is extraordinary!"
For a moment, everyone looked at Shi Zhijian with curiosity.
Zheng Wentai coughed and wanted to continue to preside over the overall situation. Although Shi Zhijian was a guest of Hongmen today, Zheng Wentai was the real owner. How could he be robbed of his glory by a young man from Hong Kong?!
"Mr. Shi Zhijian, right?" Zheng Wentai looked gentle and elegant, "Director Grant's sudden visit just now may have scared you, so please forgive me! It's almost time now, so everyone is invited to take a seat. The food and drinks will be served soon!"
Sure enough, when Zheng Wentai said this, the originally noisy hall immediately became quiet.
Everyone also changed from being curious and surprised about Shi Zhijian to looking forward to the banquet.
Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Zheng Wentai breathed a sigh of relief and sat down again to chat and laugh with everyone. As the second-in-command of the Hongmen and the son-in-law of Situ Xiong, Zheng Wentai always thought highly of himself and believed that his talent was unparalleled and that no one could surpass him.
.
But today, his edge was completely stolen by Shi Zhijian, a Hong Konger who is even younger than him!
First, his own father-in-law greeted Shi Zhijian with greetings and looked like he was eager to stick with him. Then, the ghostly Director Grant flattered Shi Zhijian, which was shocking!
Zheng Wentai could tolerate all this. He was deliberately concealed by his father-in-law and ignored by Grant. He could not take it to heart.
Because he, Zheng Wentai, is a man who does big things. Ever since he chose to marry Situ Xiong's daughter, who has an average appearance and figure, he has already chosen his future path.
That is to take up a position and become the unique Chinese godfather in Chinatown!
For this goal, he can endure humiliation and endure everything. Yes, no one can understand his ideal.
But he is taking control of the future step by step.
Thinking of this, Zheng Wentai couldn't help but admire himself. How many people like him are there in this world?
At this moment, Situ Xiong was talking to Shi Zhijian, while the others nodded and listened.
Seeing such a harmonious scene, Zheng Wentai felt proud again in his heart, and the previous depression was swept away!
So what if a mere Shi Zhijian from Hong Kong caused a sensation?
Director Grant looked very arrogant, but he was just a money-grubbing person. With his status as Zheng Wentai, he might not need too much attention.
Just as Zheng Wentai was thinking, suddenly a voice came from the door again: "The Mayor of New York City, Mr. Henry Wilder is here!"
