Rockefeller didn't mind getting to know people like Lei Luo and Lai Hao.
The Rockefeller family made their fortune in the west. At that time, there was great development in the west, gold mining, and oil exploration in the west. It was more chaotic than Hong Kong at the time, with cowboys and bandits running rampant.
Rockefeller often listened to his grandfather telling stories from that time, which were full of romantic heroism. For example, the most famous western cowboy "Billy the Kid" had always been David Rockefeller's "idol" in his childhood.
Rockefeller knew that there are different classes in every place, including Wall Street and Hong Kong. Each of the three religions has its own style.
Now that he had already met dignitaries, rich and famous people like the Governor of Hong Kong, Rockefeller did not mind getting to know these "wonderful people" in Hong Kong.
Even though Lei Luo was the all-powerful man in Hong Kong and no one took him seriously, he was still a little nervous when facing this old American man whose pseudonym was "Wang Fugui".
Lei Luo knew that if Shi Zhijian hadn't been there to guide him, he would never have seen such a big shot in his life.
Rockefeller had a great time chatting with Lei Luo, Lai Hao and others. Although the two parties did not understand the language, with the help of the translator, the two parties still communicated smoothly.
Although Lei Luo is from the police force, he is well versed in investment. He has opened several investment companies in Hong Kong and is also involved in real estate. His Thunder Company has many properties and he buys properties one by one. According to Lei Luo's temper
I like to buy houses, land and invest in shops, but I don’t know much about the stock market.
Lame Hao is just the opposite. He is a gambler, and he especially likes gambling. The bigger the game, the better. Therefore, he has long regarded the stock market as a casino, and believes that the success or failure of buying and selling depends on luck.
At this time, through the conversation with Rockefeller, the two of them understood that this is how stocks work.
As for Rockefeller, when he knew that Lei Luo was also ready to contribute more to charity like Lame Hao, he couldn't help but draw the cross on his chest and shout for God's blessing.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Shi Zhijian arranged his position again and asked the media reporters to take group photos of everyone.
So, Rockefeller stood in the middle, Shi Zhijian stood next to him, Lei Luo and Lai Hao stood behind them, and the four of them took a group photo.
Then take a group photo alone.
Shi Zhijian and Rockefeller.
Leilot and Rockefeller.
Lame Man and Rockefeller.
Those reporters were hired by Shi Zhijian with money. Of course they knew what they were going to do. Not only did they have to take good-looking photos, but they also had to prepare a draft and publish it in the newspaper together with these photos tomorrow.
They have already thought of the headline: "The meeting of the century between world plutocrats and Hong Kong tycoons!"
…
After getting to know Rockefeller here, Shi Zhijian introduced Rock to other friends.
Lei Luo and Lai Hao met together.
Lai Hao looked at Lei Luo with a somewhat embarrassed expression. He had betrayed Lei Luo before, and Lei Luo ignored him.
"How are you? How are you doing recently?" Lei Luo saw that it was okay for the two of them to just stand around and not talk, so he took the initiative to ask.
"It's okay! Thank you Brother Luo for your concern." Lai Hao stuttered a little.
Lei Luo took out a big cigar and handed it over, "Eat cigarette!"
"Eh? Okay!" Lai Hao hurriedly took it and bit it on his mouth.
Lei Luo also bit his cigar, and when he was about to light up the cigarette, Lai Hao stepped forward first, leaned his cane on his body, took out his lighter and helped Lei Luo light the cigarette.
Lei Luo was stunned for a moment.
I remembered that there was a time when the two of them were arm in arm and were as close as brothers. At that time, they would also smoke cigars and help him light cigarettes, and then look at the Hong Kong River together.
"Brother Luo, light a cigarette!" Lai Hao reminded Lei Luo when he saw Lei Luo chewing his cigar in a daze.
Only then did Lei Luo wake up and said "Huh", then lit the cigar he was holding with Lai Hao's lighter.
The two of them smoked cigars and said nothing, once again falling into embarrassment.
Not far away, Chen Xijiu asked Lardboy: "Do you think they will reconcile?"
"Who knows? Brother Hao has done too much harm to Brother Luo! Locke looks broad-minded on the surface, but he is actually very narrow-minded!"
"Wow, you dare to say that Brother Luo is petty, be careful I tell you a story!"
"No way, are you so cruel to a brother?" Lardboy glared at Chen Xijiu with feigned anger.
Over there, Dawei and Xiwei were also muttering.
"Brother, do you think Brother Luo will forgive Brother Hao?"
"I can't tell! Brother Luo has always valued love and righteousness. It's Brother Hao who feels sorry for me first. Maybe the cold war will continue!"
"Wow, so serious?"
"People in the world are all obsessed with saving face! No one is willing to bow their heads, so the stalemate continues!"
Dawei and Xiwei were muttering, and Laihao and Leiluo seemed to be unable to bear this depressing and embarrassing situation.
Lei Luo blew out a smoke ring and asked Lai Hao: "I heard that you went to war with the Vietnamese gang yesterday?"
Lame Hao: "Yes! Those Vietnamese guys are so difficult to tame, the only way is to fight them!"
"I heard you were injured?"
"A little bit."
"Where's the injury?"
"Shoulder."
The conversation between the two was interrupted and they were silent again.
After a moment, Lei Luo spoke again: "As I said, you are not young anymore! What does it look like to fight and kill? If you continue like this, you will die sooner or later!"
Lei Luo's words sounded fierce, but Lai Hao felt comfortable hearing them. There was a hint of joy on his face, and he looked at Lei Luo and said, "Brother Luo, are you worried about me?"
"I'm worried about you, you idiot! I'm afraid of giving away silk money! You know, the situation in Hong Kong is not good right now, and silk money is so expensive! I just gave one as a gift last month, and it cost me a full 10,000 yuan!"
Lame Hao chewed his cigar and smiled: "Don't worry, Brother Luo! If I really die, you don't have to give me any money, just buy me a Portland Street Song Kee Crispy Duck! You know what I like the most.
Our roast duck has smooth skin and tender meat, and it tastes delicious!”
Lei Luo laughed dumbly, holding a cigar and pointing at Lame Hao's nose: "You, you! You can do anything in this life, but I can't offend your mouth and belly! Don't worry, I will buy thirty of them for you when the time comes.
Eat as much as you can every day!"
"Thank you, Brother Luo! I knew you loved me!"
"I love you so much!"
At this moment, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and their previous grudges were wiped out.
"By the way, Ah Hao, I heard that you are planning to transform?" After chatting for a while, Lei Luo suddenly asked Lai Hao.
"Yes, it was Ah Jian who asked me to transform! He said that I would have no future in the club, and I might even end up in jail!"
"He really said that?"
"Of course! Apart from you, Brother Luo, Ajian is the best to me in this world! He always helps me!" Lame Hao vowed.
"Also, he asked me to do more charity and convince people with my virtue! He didn't let me sell white flour anymore, and asked me to switch to selling washing powder! In addition, he also didn't let me open a gambling stall, and asked me to build a horse racing farm in partnership with others.
! He said that horse racing is also gambling, but it is legal! Now there is Happy Valley and Sha Tin in Hong Kong, and the Sha Tin Racecourse is going to be expanded. This is a good opportunity, so I must seize it!"
Lei Luo's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Aguo is so sharp, he actually helped you think of so many escape routes."
When Lai Hao heard this, he suddenly looked at Lei Luo and stopped talking.
"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Lei Luo said to Lai Hao.
"Well, Brother Luo, I told you not to be angry!"
"You said I'm not angry."
"Ahem, actually, these words were all mentioned when A Jian and I were chatting, and they were about you."
"About me?"
"Yeah!" Lame Hao nodded heavily, "Ajian said, although you are now the Chief Inspector and wear the hat of Justice of the Peace, there may be a day when the police force will fight against corruption, and then you will be in danger!"
Lei Luo's heart skipped a beat. For some reason he suddenly thought of Shi Zhijian's "dead man".
Lei Luo bit his cigar and his eyes flickered.
Ever since I met Shi Zhijian, Shi Zhijian has been like a prophet, every shot will hit! Especially the things that his "dead man" dreamed about have basically become reality!
Could it be that the police force's anti-corruption campaign was also warned in a dream by his "bad old man"?
"Ahem, Brother Luo, are you okay?" Seeing Lei Luo's strange expression, Laihao couldn't help coughing twice to remind him.
"Oh, it's okay!" Lei Luo came back to his senses, "What else did Ajian say to you?"
In fact, Lei Luo still has some doubts about the police force's anti-corruption. After all, this slogan has been chanted for so many years, but it has not yet taken shape. Those high-ranking officials who were determined to fight corruption were eventually bribed by them and became one of them.
"Ajian also said that maybe the Hong Kong government will set up an 'Independent Commission Against Corruption' this time, and then it will vigorously crack down on gangs and evil, fight corruption and promote integrity! Brother Luo, you have to be careful!"
"Uh, ICAC?" Lei Luo heard of such a government organization for the first time, "Is this what Ajian said?"
"Yeah, he said it all! I'm curious, how could A Jian know so much? Could it be that his damn old man is using his power again?" Lame Hao chewed his cigar and turned it around in his mouth, with a puzzled look on his face.
Lei Luo was stunned.
Is it really A Jian’s father who is entrusting him with a dream?
After all, the name "Independent Commission Against Corruption" is not something that ordinary people can think of!
The older this person gets, the more superstitious he becomes.
Lei Luo is the same. He didn't believe in ghosts and gods when he was young. After he was thirty, he started to believe in fate. At forty, he not only believed in fate but also in ghosts! If he did too many bad things, he would harbor evil intentions and become uneasy!
"Brother Luo, you don't need to take this kind of thing to heart. It's very difficult to talk about ghosts and gods!" Seeing Lei Luo's worried face, Laihao couldn't help but explain.
Lei Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to himself: "Pu, your mother, you should have said this from the beginning. It made me feel uneasy and you came to comfort me again!"
"I'm fine, you know I'm the boldest!" Lei Luo shrugged, looking nonchalant.
Lame Hao then breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay! I know Brother Luo that you are sharp and nothing can scare you!"
Lei Luoyun smiled lightly, but he was rolling his eyes in his heart, "Nima, you almost scared me to the point of peeing just now!"
…
"Mr. Locke, this is my sister Shi Yufeng, whom you all know, and this is Miss Bertie, the head of my company, this is my partner Miss Nie Yongqin, and this is my personal secretary and treasurer
Supervisor Miss Su Youwei!" Shi Zhijian introduced all the female relatives to Rockefeller.
Rockefeller smiled and said exaggeratedly: "Wow, so many beauties! Dear Peter Jian, you are so lucky!"
Shi Zhijian smiled and said, "Yes, I am really lucky! They are all excellent."
Rockefeller added: "If I remember correctly, Hong Kong is still enforcing the laws of the Qing Dynasty. Men can marry many wives. It is called polygamy, right?"
Shi Zhijian didn't understand what Rockefeller meant by this, so he nodded, "Yes, there is such a custom in Hong Kong."
After Hong Kong came under British rule in 1842, many aspects of society were modernized, but the original system of marriage was maintained. According to Qing regulations, men were allowed to take concubines.
Polygamy was still practiced in Hong Kong and was not abolished until the "Amendment of Marriage Ordinance" was implemented on October 7, 1971. However, polygamous couples who married before 1971 are also recognized and protected by law.
In other words, if Shi Zhijian wants to take concubines, he needs to speed up his practice of polygamy, otherwise he will not have this opportunity until next year.
Rockefeller smiled, and suddenly looked at the three beauties strangely, "Hey, I, Wang Fugui, and your boyfriend, Mr. Pitkin, have been friends since the New Year! I didn't bring any gifts when I came to Hong Kong this time. I have an antique ring here.
It’s not worth much, and I want to give it to one of you, but I don’t know who to give it to?”
As soon as Rockefeller said these words, everyone around him immediately gathered around.
Any fool knows there is something good to watch.
Shi Zhijian, a scumbag, has always been irresponsible to women and unwilling to get engaged. He always hangs on these beauties. Men with a "sense of justice" like Mr. Xu and Mr. Huo can no longer stand it.
Now Rockefeller clearly wants Shi Zhijian to make a choice among these three people and choose a big house, so that he can dominate the Shi family and the world as his mother.
"Wow, A Jian is in trouble over there! Let's go take a look!" Lei Luo let go of his worries for the time being and asked Lai Hao to go over and watch the fun together.
At this moment, the most anxious and entangled person in my heart is undoubtedly Dai Fengnian, the "cheap uncle" who was invited by Shi Zhijian to attend the farewell party today!
Dai Fengnian never expected that the old guy Rockefeller would suddenly come out like this in front of everyone, obviously to let Shi Zhijian make a decision and select the candidate for the future big house!
How pitiful! His little sister Dai Fengni is on the treasure island and she can’t even fly there! What a waste of time she even participates in the election?! She will immediately lose her chance!
"If Nie Yongqin and Su Youwei are elected, won't my sister Fengni have to be subordinate to others? Become their servant? This is unreasonable!" Dai Fengnian was filled with anger.
Nie Yongqin was born as a singer, so what qualifications did he have to command his younger sister Dai Fengni?
There is also Su Youwei, whose background is even more miserable. She is a real Dan family member! She is simply the lowest among the lowest classes! If Shi Zhijian chooses her, wouldn’t it mean that his younger sister Feng Ni is not even as good as a Dan family girl?!
Dai Fengnian was extremely nervous at this moment, fearing that Shi Zhijian's head would get hot and he would make a bad choice!
"I'm going to beat your lungs out! You must be awake! Otherwise I will strangle you to death!" Dai Fengnian secretly said fiercely.
…
Besides, the three girls, Nie Yongqin, Su Youwei and Bai Ledi, never expected that Rockefeller would suddenly make such a move and force Shi Zhijian to make a decision.
They were stunned at first, then nervous, and finally stared at Shi Zhijian with their beautiful eyes.
Shi Zhijian, kidney pain!
He looked at the smiling Rockefeller and really wanted to greet his immediate family far away!
However, out of politeness, Shi Zhijian could only say: "Thank you!" before taking the antique ring handed over by Rockefeller.
The ring is very simple, inlaid with emeralds, and the cross pattern looks very high-end. Although Shi Zhijian has no research on this kind of thing, he also knows that it is very precious.
"Ajian, you have to think clearly, this is related to the future development of our Shi family!" Old sister Shi Yufeng couldn't help but pull Shi Zhijian aside and murmured in a low voice.
"Yes, A Jian! Women are the same even when the lights are turned off, but there is only one person who can be the head of the family. You have to think clearly! Don't choose someone with a personality like your sister! It will ruin the family!" Lame Hao doesn't know when to delay.
He also came over with a lame leg and helped Shi Zhijian with his ideas.
Shi Yufeng stomped on Lai Hao's feet.
Lame Hao's mouth twitched in pain, "Is there anything wrong? I helped you, my dear, and you plotted against me?"
"Damn lame! Will you die if you stop saying a word?" Shi Yufeng cursed.
"Can you give me some face? We are all lame, so don't attack us personally!"
"Attack your head!" Shi Yufeng stomped over again.
Lai Hao covered his mouth and was spinning in pain.
Shi Zhijian took the antique ring and looked at Nie Yongqin and the others.
