058 [Life and death have destiny, wealth is in the sky! 】
It was helpless for Shi Zhijian to come to find Lai Hao.
Lei Luo asked Chen Xijiu to hand over three million Hong Kong dollars to Macau to bribe the ghost Selina. However, Yan Xiong's people were guarding the pier and the ferry, and they wanted to transport a box of Hong Kong dollars there unnoticed.
Macau is simply an impossible task.
For this reason, after Shi Zhijian got the money, he immediately went to Standard Chartered Bank, found his old friend Saipan, and asked him to exchange three million in cash into a check. This was the main reason why Yan Xiong could not find cash at the dock.
Now that Shi Zhijian is in Macau, he wants to exchange the three million check into Hong Kong dollars as soon as possible, because Selena has been gambling in the casino, and the casino only accepts cash, not checks.
What's more, in a place like Hong Kong, most of the people who ask for help are in cash or gold bars. To show sincerity, who would ask for a check?
Time is tight now. You need to make an appointment in advance to exchange money at a bank in Macau. After all, three million is not a small amount. In addition, the bank is already closed, so it is impossible to make an appointment.
Shi Zhijian had no choice but to ask Lai Hao for help.
Everyone knows what the lame tycoon does: it has the most cash flow.
At this moment, in the reception room, Lai Hao slowly walked to Shi Zhijian with a cane in one hand.
He is not too tall or burly, but he gives the impression of a big mountain.
Lai Hao looked at Shi Zhijian and said nothing, but stretched out his hand to Xi Wei who was waiting beside him.
Xiwei had been with him for many years and was familiar with Brother Hao's every move. He immediately took the cigar and handed it to Lai Hao with a bow.
Lai Hao took the cigar and bit it on his mouth, and Xiwei helped him light the cigar very skillfully.
The lame man took a puff of his cigar and exhaled thick smoke. Then he pointed the cigar at the tip of Shi Zhijian's nose and said, "I heard you want to discuss business with me?"
Shi Zhijian nodded, "Yes, I have business to discuss with Brother Hao, but..." He looked around and said, "Can you sit down first? I really don't like standing and talking."
Lame Hao raised his cane and knocked on the chair next to him, "Please!"
Shi Zhijian sat down on the chair that Lai Hao had knocked on.
Lame Hao also slowly sat down on the chair, bending one leg and putting the other leg down stiffly.
Only then did Shi Zhijian understand why Laihao didn't like sitting on the chair. His posture was too ugly.
"Mr. Shi? Now you can talk about your business!" Laihao puffed away his cigar.
Shi Zhijian did not answer, but opened the briefcase he was carrying.
The two brothers Dawei and Xiwei next to them immediately became alert, and Xiwei even reached out to touch his waist.
The lame man waved his hand and scolded the two of them: "Don't react so loudly! It's easy to scare the guests. They are here to discuss business, not to carry out assassinations!"
Shi Zhijian didn't care about this. After opening the box, he dumped out a large pile of information. After emptying the box, he handed it to Lai Hao and said, "Brother Hao, please do me a favor and fill this box up!"
Lai Hao was startled for a moment, "What is it filled with?"
"Hong Kong dollars! Three million!"
The lame man was stunned again, then laughed, and touched Shi Zhijian's forehead with a cigar: "You are either crazy or insane! Come to me and let me fill this broken box with three million. I will tell you, mother, you
Give me three million first!"
Shi Zhijian smiled, took out a Standard Chartered check of three million from his pocket, and handed it to Lai Hao: "Standard Chartered Bank, exchange it at any time!"
Lai Hao narrowed his eyes, took a deep puff of his cigar, and puffed it out.
Xiwei took the check handed over by Shi Zhijian, looked at it, handed it to Lai Hao and said: "Brother Hao, it's true, Standard Chartered's three million cashier's check!"
Lame Hao didn't say a word, but the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a sinister smile: "You want me to cash in for you with a three million check, I understand that! But the question is, why should I help you?!
"
"You're not helping me, you're helping Brother Luo!" Shi Zhijian looked straight into Lai Hao's eyes and spoke calmly.
Lame Hao's eyes flickered, sharp as a knife: "Lei Luo? Are you his?"
"No, I'm a businessman. I came to Macau to purchase fireworks and firecrackers, and exchanging money is just a way of doing it!" Shi Zhijian said lightly.
Lai Hao smiled: "Everyone knows now that Lei Luo is competing with Yan Xiong for the position of Inspector Hua in Yau Tsim Mong District. He asked you to come to Macau to exchange for three million. What are you doing?"
Shi Zhijian also laughed, crossed his legs in front of Lame Hao, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and knocked it on the box, "Brother Hao, people don't tell secret stories, I came to Macau to do it."
Hey, you know best!"
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Shi Zhijian held the cigarette in his mouth, "What are you doing all the way from Hong Kong to Macau?"
"Can't I just come here and count?"
"It's just about collecting the debt. If you don't collect it early, you won't collect it later. It's such a coincidence that you have to come to Macau to collect it at this time!"
As someone who has been there, Shi Zhijian has watched "The Crippled Man" and also read the history of Hong Kong's political arena.
The reason why the previous generation Wu Shihao was able to successfully rise to the top in the world of martial arts, overpowering Sun Ngee Ann, Fourteen K, and the Hutchison gang, and replacing the Chaozhou Gang as the real gangster, the Xiangjiang tycoon who covers the sky with one hand, was all because of his help.
Lei Luo won the position of Inspector General Hua, and then with Lei Luo's help, he rose to the top smoothly!
By this time Shi Zhijian had already seen through Lai Hao.
Lai Hao could not understand Shi Zhijian more and more.
Lai Hao stared at Shi Zhijian deeply, "You seem to know a lot."
"Not much! I only know that there is a huge opportunity in front of you, Brother Hao. It depends on whether you can seize it!" After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he lit his cigarette with his hands, raised his head and blew out the smoke, looked at Lai Hao and said:
"As the saying goes: life and death are destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven!"
The corner of Lai Hao's eye twitched.
I recall that back then, Wu Shihao, a native of Shantou, smuggled himself to Hong Kong with several fellow villagers. When he first arrived, he suffered numerous hardships. He first joined the Teochew Gang and opened a flower stall in Shek Kip Mei. After several years of hard work, he gradually expanded his power.
After that, he realized that only by continuously expanding his team could he make a living in Hong Kong, a city with many gangs, so he ran away from the Chaozhou Gang and led a group of fellow Chaozhou fellows to establish a new gang - "Yiqun"
, and aggressively recruited troops to expand their power.
But Hong Kong is too small. In addition to the Chaozhou Gang, there are also bigger companies such as Hutchison, Laoxin, and 14K!
These gangs are stronger than him and have more men and horses than him. Back then, he even lost a leg in order to seize territory.
Now Yiqun seems to be very prosperous, but it can't even touch the butts of the four major gangs.
Wu Shihao is unwilling to give in!
Because he is ambitious!
Now, as Shi Zhijian said, the opportunity is in front of him, and Yan Xiong's path is unworkable, because back then Lame Hao defeated Yan Xiong's lackey Fei Bo because of the land grab, and Yan Xiong had already regarded him as a thorn in his side.
As for the two detectives Lan Gang and Han Sen, they are both inferior to Yan Xiong in terms of qualifications and strength. The only one who can compete with Yan Xiong is Lei Luo!
But this time, Lei Luo and Yan Xiong are competing for hegemony. Lai Hao has already prepared to bet on Lei Luo, but he just has no chance. He chose to come to Macau today because he is actually waiting for an opportunity!
Now that Shi Zhijian has presented himself with the opportunity, what should he do?
Lame Hao's heart was filled with thoughts, and he suddenly stood up slowly with a cane and laughed loudly: "Well said! Life and death are destiny, wealth is in heaven! If Lei Luo can keep Yau Jian Wang, I will be a loyal group in the world.
My ranking can be moved up a bit, to the third or fourth rank or something like that."
It's okay that Lai Hao didn't say the last sentence. Shi Zhijian almost laughed out loud when he said this. He was surprised that Lai Hao could have such little ambition like Lei Luo?
Have you misremembered history, or has history played tricks on you?
"In short, I, Wu Shihao, am going to take a serious gamble today!"
After finishing speaking, Lai Hao turned to look at Shi Zhijian. At this moment, Shi Zhijian's status was much more important in his eyes, so his tone became more polite: "Mr. Shi, if you have any orders now, just tell me!"
Da Wei and Xi Wei were also infected by Lai Hao's aura, clenching their fists and looking at Shi Zhijian together.
Shi Zhijian shook his head, gave up the ridiculous idea just now, flicked the cigarette ashes and said: "Then please help me buy fireworks first! I need them for my business opening!"
