Keswick was born into a noble family and was a gentleman from the British Empire. It can be said that he was a young talent who grew up in a greenhouse! How have you ever seen such a method before!
Dip the pig cage and drown people alive!
With a pop, he squatted on the ground!
Niu Xiong lowered his head and glanced at his watch, and after a moment told Mr. Wrigley Li, "Fetch it up!"
The crooked old Li was busy asking people to pull the rope!
It turns out that there is a straw rope tied to one end of the pig cage!
After just a few pulls, the pig cage was exposed!
Li Runsheng was curled up in the pig cage, spitting out water, looking like he was dying!
Niu Xiong looked at Keswick: "Mr. Keswick, do you still like my performance? This is just one of them, we have something more fun! It's called 'Rolling Rock'! It means putting people in cages, and then
Kicked down from the top of the mountain! It’s so exciting, as powerful as kicking a wave!”
Keswick looked at Li Runsheng who had survived the disaster and thought about whether he should let Niu Xiong do it again?
Li Runsheng said with tears and runny nose: "Mr. Keswick, please stop messing with me! Just sign it!"
Keswick frowned, how could he surrender so easily?
"I'm going to die if you don't surrender!" Li Runsheng saw the ghost guy Keswick's eyes rolling around and knew what he was thinking.
"Now, it doesn't matter if I die! Don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes. I will tell all your scandals!" At the moment of life and death, Li Runsheng didn't care about anything. Since this ghost guy doesn't regard himself as a human being,
If you can just watch yourself die, why should you worry about it? If you want to die, we will die together!
"You evade taxes! You embezzle public funds! And you like to have sex with women! You do it with friends and business partners! Even your stepmother! What kind of bullshit British gentleman are you? You are simply a bad person!"
Keswick blushed!
Niu Xiong and others were extremely excited after hearing this. This was a huge amount of information!
If word spreads about this ghost guy Kekese, his reputation will definitely be ruined! Not to mention being the president of Jardine He, I'm afraid he will be beaten to death by his father!
"Okay! I sign!" Keswick surrendered!
He never expected that Li Zhaotian would be so despicable and shameless, starting with the people around him and letting people reveal all his embarrassing things!
Niu Xiong smiled, "Hey, Mr. Keswick! I didn't force you! It was your decision! I think Mr. Li will be very satisfied with your decision!"
…
"Satisfied! I'm quite satisfied! Hahaha!"
Li Zhaotian was holding a cigar in his mouth, looking at the equity transfer letter signed by Keswick in his hand, and couldn't help laughing.
To be honest, Li Zhaotian didn't dare to go too far with a ghost like Keswick. After all, where his status lies, he would get burned if he wasn't careful.
I just didn't expect that this unexpected event would go so smoothly.
"Niu Xiong, you are very good! I will give you a great credit. When I, Li Zhaotian, officially announce my move to Wharf, I will definitely reward you greatly!"
"Thank you boss!" Niu Xiong smiled happily.
Wen Zedun said from the side: "Mr. Li, having said that, if you do this, you will offend the gang of ghosts at Jardine Matheson. It is better to delay the announcement of this news!"
"What's the delay? This is the day I've been waiting for!" Li Zhaotian looked domineering, "What about the ghost guy? Didn't he sign it if I asked him to sign it? Well, I have already decided that it will be on December 25th.
Christmas is this day! Those ghost guys love this holiday so much. At that time, I will announce to the whole of Hong Kong that I, Lee Zhaotian, am the new owner of Wharf! I am the king of Chinese businessmen!"
Li Zhaotian bit his cigar and was in high spirits!
…
There are three days left until Christmas.
At this time, news that Lee Zhaotian had taken over Wharf was spreading everywhere in Hong Kong.
As the first Chinese businessman to control British-owned assets, Li Zhaotian has become a "big hero" among many people.
Some media in Hong Kong even followed up on this matter and praised Li Zhaotian as a "sage". As for the Li family's betrayal of the country and the scandal of opium trafficking, this huge news also eliminated a lot of it.
For a time, the Lee family was in the limelight!
…
Hong Kong, Queen's Pier.
During the colonial era, Queen's Pier was used by Hong Kong government officials and members of the British royal family.
The tradition of successive Hong Kong Governors taking office is to take the Governor's yacht to disembark at Queen's Pier, hold an inauguration ceremony such as a welcome and military parade in Edinburgh Square, and then go to the Hong Kong City Hall to take the oath. To put it bluntly, the main purpose is to declare sovereignty to the world.
Show that Hong Kong is a British place.
In April 1953, due to the reclamation project in Central, Queen's Pier and the Star Pier were forced to relocate. At that time, basically all the British-funded construction companies participated in the tender for such a huge project.
These British businessmen cut corners in order to make money, so that after ten years both Queen's Pier and Star Pier experienced varying degrees of ground cracking.
The construction capabilities of British-funded builders have been questioned by the public, forcing the British Hong Kong government to adopt an "open tender" method to renovate Queen's Pier and Star Pier again.
It was at this time that the Lee family, relying on their close relationship with the British Hong Kong government, won the right to renovate two piers in one fell swoop!
By doing this, the British Hong Kong government is telling the world that they treat Chinese businessmen "equally"; and Lee's Construction Company started to take over the "renovation" project and make money like crazy!
At night, on the quiet water near Queen's Pier, a fishing boat made a clattering motor sound and moved forward slowly.
Shi Zhijian, dressed in white, stood on the bow of the boat, facing the wind. His white suit rustled in the night wind. In the miserable night, his eyes were bright and sharp.
The plan planned by Shi Zhijian went very smoothly. Li Zhaotian was used as a spearhead by him and became a pioneer. He offended the three major shipping kings in Hong Kong and hated the British ghosts in one breath! He made countless enemies and was not far away from death!
Since Li Zhaotian was so proud that he wanted to officially announce his move to Wharf on Christmas, Shi Zhijian gave him a big gift!
"Mr. Shi, we are almost at the pier! But this pier is very messy. The people working here and looking for food are all poor people, and there is a mix of dragons and snakes! Especially at this late hour, you have to be careful!"
The boatman is a dark, muscular man, nicknamed "Langli Piao". He once hung out with Gui Laoqi, the captain of the "Lion" for a while. Later, when he made some money, he bought such a small boat to carry goods for others.
It can also fill your stomach.
If it were anyone else, Lang Lipiao would never say so many words. However, Shi Zhijian and Gui Lao Qi knew each other, which invisibly brought them closer.
Shi Zhijian smiled, took out a cigarette from his arms and handed one over.
Langli Piao took it and held it in his mouth, but he couldn't move his hands because he was steering the rudder.
Shi Zhijian took out his lighter and lit the cigarette for him personally. This made Lang Piaocheng feel frightened and at the same time extremely excited. He said: "How can this happen? Mr. Shi, you are the big boss with a noble status. I am just a poor sailor."
!”
As he said this, Lang Lipiao happily took a puff and spit it out. He felt so comfortable! Shi Daheng helped him light his cigarette, and he would probably be able to brag about it in front of his friends for the rest of his life!
Shi Zhijian also put a cigarette in his mouth and asked casually, "Who is the leader of this construction worker?"
"Oh, it's Liang Guoxiong! His nickname is 'Chang Maoxiong'! He is not only the leader of the construction workers, but also the chairman of their union!"
Trade unions were very popular in this era, and it was fashionable to install a trade union in any organization.
To be precise, trade unions exist to safeguard the interests of workers. However, trade unions in this era are similar to societies. On the surface, they protect the interests of trade unions, but in fact, rich people control these poor "tools". Many times, the chairman of the trade union,
There are also other leadership groups, all of which are bribed by wealthy people and placed in the union.
“What’s the relationship between this long-haired male and Ritchie Architecture?”
"I heard it's not bad! Ricci Construction's stall was too large this time. It built two wharves for renovation at one time and owed workers more than three months' wages! If it were another construction site, there would have been riots! It would have been a long time ago.
Mao Xiong can shake up the place!"
Shi Zhijian smiled and glanced towards the pier, where a night bird chirped and flew overhead!
It’s not easy to find food these days. Even birds have to work hard to find food at night, let alone people!
Just when Shi Zhijian was thinking, the bow of the boat shook, but the boat had already docked.
The wave floated forward, threw the rope to the shore, and then jumped over first. When the boat was about to swing away, he grabbed the rope and tied it to the cement pile on the shore.
"Mr. Shi, okay! You can come up now!"
Shi Zhijian heard the sound, took a black briefcase from the cabin, and then jumped from the bow to the shore.
"Mr. Shi, you really don't want me to come with you?" Langlipiao asked worriedly.
Although they didn't have much contact, Shi Zhijian knew Gui Lao Qi, not to mention that Lang Lipiao felt that he was a good person, his speech and behavior were polite, he was very kind to people, and he didn't have the air of a big boss at all.
"No, I can go there alone! You wait for me here, and I will use your boat to go back later."
"Okay, Mr. Shi, I'll wait for you here! If you need anything, just call me!" Lang Lipiao said, "Although I'm not a big shot, I know Chang Mao Xiong's gang. How many of them are there?
Also give me some face!"
People in rivers and lakes all love to blow water, and so does floating in the waves.
It's true that he knows Chang Mao Xiong. As for whether being a Chang Mao Xiong gives him face, that's another matter!
…
Shi Zhijian had a slicked back hair, a cigarette in his mouth, and a black briefcase in his hand as he walked towards the bright area of the pier.
As expected, he was discovered by the night shift personnel at the dock after walking a few steps.
The job of these on-duty personnel is to guard the terminal construction materials, such as valuable steel pipes, steel plates, fasteners, etc., especially the cast iron fasteners used to build the outer tripod, which are most easily lost, and can often be sold to the scrap yard.
A full thirty cents!
Many scrap collectors often work part-time as thieves at night, coming to dock construction sites to steal these gadgets.
What's more, some construction workers steal some of them secretly by peeing at night, carrying them in their arms, and then hide them and look for opportunities to sell them!
Two construction workers on the night shift were bored and took a big bowl to throw dice. They compared the numbers and lost ten cents at a time. They had a great time.
Shi Zhijian's appearance broke their interest.
"Hey, that one in white! What are you doing here so late?"
The two of them saw that Shi Zhijian was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and he didn't look like a thief, so they asked patiently.
"I'm looking for your boss Changmao Xiong!"
"What do you want our boss to do?"
"Send money!" Shi Zhijian smiled slightly, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke!
…
In the simple workshop on the construction site, under the dim light, the shirtless long-haired male was pulling at his dark chest hair with a tangled expression.
Next to him, stood his two followers, Aaron and Ahu, who were also the second in command and third guard at the construction site.
In front of them, Shi Zhijian opened the briefcase he brought, and inside it was neatly packed "two hundred thousand" cash!
Changmao Xiong finally took his eyes away from the two hundred thousand cash and swallowed hard.
Gudong!
The sound of swallowing saliva is clearly audible.
Shi Zhijian, who was standing opposite him, smiled slightly, took out the cigarette case from his arms, took out three cigarettes and handed them to Changmao Xiong and others.
Changmao Xiong hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the cigarette.
Aaron and Ahu also followed suit and each took a cigarette. Seeing that it was a good cigarette, they were reluctant to smoke it. Instead, they held it in front of their noses, smelled it, and put it on their ears.
"Mr. Shi, you came here alone, I admire your courage! In addition, you gave us two hundred thousand, which also shows that you are very sincere! But I'm sorry!" Changmao Xiong took a deep breath and touched his chin.
"Although we work for others, we are also very loyal! It is impossible for you to ask us to betray Mr. Li!"
"I didn't ask you to betray him! I just want you to get your rights back! It's already December, and the Chinese New Year will be in a month or two. He owes you three months' salary, and he should ask for an explanation!"
"this--"
In fact, Changmao Xiong alone took the benefits given by Li Zhaotian, so he suppressed the workers at the construction site, otherwise they would have rebelled long ago!
Who is Shi Zhijian? He knew what the problem was as soon as he saw Chang Mao Xiong's expression. He immediately stared into Chang Mao Xiong's eyes and said, "I know, two hundred thousand is a bit too low! There are at least a thousand people at your construction site, and one person can get it all."
It’s only one or two hundred yuan! So I’ve prepared some sincerity for you!”
As he spoke, Shi Zhijian took out another check from his arms and handed it over: "Take a look first, is this sincerity enough?"
Changmao Xiong frowned, "No, Mr. Shi! We are all Jianghu people, we must be loyal! Absolutely not, cannot -" He stared at the check in his hand, his eyes widening! Crazy!
Swallow your spit!
Aaron and Ahu looked curious when they saw this, and hurriedly came over to take a look. They were stunned when they saw it, and started to swallow their saliva!
That’s 300,000 Standard Chartered promissory notes!
Can be redeemed at any time!
Changmao Xiong raised his head suddenly and said with a serious expression: "As a human being, it is good to be loyal! But we cannot ignore everyone's welfare! Mr. Shi, I support you!"
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly. He didn't know whether Li Zhaotian had watched "Tian Long Ba Bu". Shi Zhijian liked the trick from the Murong family in it -
Use the other person's way to pay back the other person's body!
Last time Lee Zhaotian went on strike at the wharf,
