When Hu Juncai received a call from Shi Zhijian, he was checking various legal provisions in the law firm to see what kind of crimes smuggling and reselling arms were under the laws of the British Empire.
The result is no surprise. Among the penalties in the British Empire, Article 543 clearly states that anyone who sells and smuggles arms, in serious cases, shall be punished with life imprisonment!
Hu Juncai touched his chin and felt that he was still very young. He had just established a successful career and had not yet married a wife. If he was imprisoned for life, he would suffer a big loss!
At this moment, Hu Juncai had begun to "back off" in his heart!
He immediately said to Shi Zhijian on the phone: "Mr. Shi, wait a moment, I'll be there right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Hu Juncai thought about it and felt that it was too risky to go alone. Adhering to the principle of equal risk sharing, Hu Juncai felt it was necessary to bring the ghost guy Badjia with him. After all, this ghost guy was also Shi Zhijian's cheap second uncle. Even if
No matter how angry Shi Zhijian was, he would never yell at him.
How could a ghost like Badjia know how to cause trouble? When he was informed by Hu Juncai that he should go to find Shi Zhijian together, he thought the matter had been negotiated and was overjoyed!
It was only after the two met that Gui Lao Badjia realized that Hu Juncai was using him as a shield.
The matter has come to this, there is no point in retreating!
So Badjia and Wu Juncai rushed to Wan Chai Tenement House together!
…
Shi Zhijian's cold has been very serious these days.
At first, he thought that drinking ginger syrup would make him better, but he didn’t expect that because he had been busy at the construction site for so long, his body could no longer bear the pressure. This cold directly brought out all the internal fires! It made Shi Zhijian’s nose runny.
, and kept coughing and having a fever!
Helpless, Shi Zhijian sought Western medicine for treatment. Unfortunately, Western medicine treated the symptoms but not the root cause. Taking amoxicillin only made his runny nose symptoms slightly better, but he still had constant fevers and sometimes even had chills all over his body!
Shi Yufeng was a little scared, so she asked Chen Gantang, a famous local master of traditional Chinese medicine, to visit Shi Zhijian in person to diagnose her.
Chen Gantang's master is "Chen Botan", a master of traditional Chinese medicine in Hong Kong! Chen Botan is a master of traditional Chinese medicine in Guangdong, Guangxi and Hong Kong!
In the 25th year of Guangxu's reign, he officially opened a clinic on Shufang Street in Guangzhou and started practicing medicine. He implemented the tenet of "the rich take more without harm, and the poor benefit from exemptions and exemptions." The outpatient fee was only 2 cents. Because of his proficient medical skills,
There were more than a hundred patients seeking medical treatment every day. At that time, Tan Zhonglin, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, suffered from insomnia and could not be cured by repeated medical treatments. Chen used a large dose of Guizhi decoction to make Tan recover, and he became famous for a while.
In his later years, Chen Botan practiced medicine and wrote books in Hong Kong. He also founded the Botan Traditional Chinese Medicine School and participated in teaching. He has thousands of disciples, the most famous of whom is Chen Gantang, the current generation of traditional Chinese medicine masters in Hong Kong!
It is said that Master Chen Gantang Chen has excellent medical skills. Many Hong Kong tycoons rely on him to tide over their illnesses!
In fact, the competition between Chinese and Western medicine in this era is fierce, especially under the rule of the British. Many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners were deliberately suppressed by the British. For example, medical qualification certificates were not issued, the medical qualifications of Chinese medicine practitioners were not recognized, etc.
In addition, Hong Kong has entered the 1970s, and many immigrants have begun to believe that Western medicine is omnipotent and can cure diseases by taking a few pills. Who would go to the trouble of frying Chinese herbal medicine?!
Generally speaking, Hong Kong people in this era think that seeking medical treatment from Western medicine is fast and fashionable! On the contrary, apart from traditional Chinese medicine clinics and the like, many pharmacies have been forced to close!
The main reason why Master Chen deigned to condescend to come to Shi Zhijian's home to diagnose and treat the disease was mainly because Shi Zhijian had previously donated a large sum of money to the Hong Kong Chinese Medicine Association, which not only funded the Hong Kong College of Chinese Medicine to continue to expand its scale and cultivate talents, but also established the Hong Kong Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Fund supports those outstanding Chinese medicine talents who are highly skilled but suffer from poverty!
In a word, thanks to the money funded by Shi Zhijian, Hong Kong Chinese medicine practitioners took a breather in the fierce competition with Western medicine! They were not directly crushed to death!
In the last life, Hong Kong traditional Chinese medicine had actually been directly crushed by Western medicine.
Because the medical qualification certification conditions set by Hong Kong Gui Lao are very harsh, it is even harder for these Chinese medicine practitioners to obtain a "medical license"!
You must know that most of these Chinese medicine practitioners are elderly people with gray beards. Their skills have been acquired through years of practice. Now they have to take the written examination set by the British Hong Kong government. There are even English words on the examination paper that they do not recognize at all.
Letters, what should they do? Even if they pass the exam, they will fail!
Therefore, many Chinese medicine clinics without medical qualifications had to move underground to operate. For a time, the entire Chinese medicine community in Hong Kong was in turmoil, and was almost wiped out by the ghost man's system!
Now with the help of Shi Zhijian, a young Hong Kong tycoon, hope has been rekindled in Hong Kong's traditional Chinese medicine industry.
Master Chen was very grateful for Shi Zhijian's contribution to the cause of traditional Chinese medicine in Hong Kong. Not only did he personally come to help Shi Zhijian diagnose his illness, he also personally picked up Chinese herbal medicine for Shi Zhijian and gave instructions on how to decoct it and take it!
At this moment, Shi Zhijian drank the decoction and was lying on the bed to rest.
Hu Juncai and Gui Lao Bai Dejia sneaked in. At a glance, they saw the wads of toilet paper lying on the ground beside Shi Zhijian's bed!
The two looked at each other and had very evil thoughts.
Fortunately, Shi Zhijian opened his eyes when he heard the noise, "Why are you so sneaky? You came in without making a sound?"
"Ahem, we're afraid of disturbing your rest!" Hu Juncai glanced at the ground, "Mr. Shi, I heard that you are sick! Don't work too much! Take care of yourself!"
"Yes, I heard that Miss Nie and Miss Su often come to visit you! It is inevitable for young people to be energetic, but they must also act according to their ability, not to mention you are sick now!" Little Guibo Dejia said
A man's heart is like a gentleman, and he thinks that Shi Zhijian is a lustful person just like him!
Shi Zhijian rolled his eyes. If it weren't for this ghost guy Bodegard who was Boleti's second uncle, Shi Zhijian would have really wanted to greet his mother!
"Hu Juncai, do you know why I want you to come here?"
"I know! But it's none of my business! I was forced too!" Hu Juncai immediately started to blame, "It's Badjia! He asked me to cooperate and asked me to start a company with him to sell arms.
! He also said that I knew that if I didn’t cooperate with him, those ghost officers would cut off my vegetable business! I had no choice but to go to Sister Yufeng!"
Bodegaard didn't expect this street lawyer to be so unloyal. He thought again and thought that he was careless. What is a lawyer? In their British Empire, he is the most despicable, shameless, and best liar of a bastard!
I actually expected him to be on the same side as me. How naive!
After listening to Hu Juncai's "accusation", Shi Zhijian looked sharply at Badjia.
As the famous second-generation ancestor of the British Empire, Badgar has always been smooth and sophisticated! To put it bluntly, he doesn't take anyone seriously. He is not afraid of anything and never knows how high the sky is!
But at this moment, when he faced Shi Zhijian's eyes, he actually felt a little scared!
For some reason, Shi Zhijian has such an aura, which is different from that of many tycoons.
It's as if his eyes are electric and can penetrate everything! Especially, they can penetrate your internal organs! Even the smallest thoughts in your heart cannot escape!
Badjia wanted to fool around with him at first, but was suppressed by Shi Zhijian's momentum and did not dare to pretend anymore. He said directly: "Ahem, yes, this is my idea! Those ghost officers found me and praised me.
Happy cooperation! So they want to turn this short-term cooperation into a long-term cooperation! They will provide various expired arms and leave it to us to handle. We only need to find a buyer and we can make a profit in the middle! I calculate
It’s a great profit!”
Of course Shi Zhijian knew whether the profit was big or not. Not to mention other things, those two warships alone helped Shi Zhijian earn a lot of money!
"Then what plan do you have, can't you just talk about it with your mouth?" Shi Zhijian's tone was lukewarm, but full of sarcasm.
Upon hearing this, Badgar hurriedly took out a document that he had already prepared, "This is the plan I wrote. It's not very good. Take a look at it first!"
Unexpectedly, this ghost guy was already prepared. Shi Zhijian was stunned and took the plan and looked through it.
Hu Juncai looked curious and couldn't help but crane his neck to look ahead.
Shi Zhijian read quickly, glanced at it a few times, and put the plan together. He looked up at Badjia and said, "To set up a company, you want to borrow 30 million from me?"
"Yes! There is a saying in China that it is difficult to make profits without capital. I hope you can lend me 30 million as a start-up capital. We will start slowly and step by step. Start with a small business and never spread the stall too much.
Big!" Badgar said cautiously.
Shi Zhijian smiled and threw back the plan in his hand!
Badgar hurriedly reached out to catch it.
Hu Juncai was heartbroken when he saw this. It seemed that Mr. Shi was very unhappy!
Badgar also saw it and couldn't help but feel discouraged. He didn't expect that the plan he had worked so hard to write would be completely ruined!
Just when the two thought the matter was over, Shi Zhijian pointed at Hu Juncai and then pointed at Bodega: "You two are rushing to the street! Weren't you very brave before? You even dared to resell British warships, but now
But they only asked me to borrow 30 million yuan! What is 30 million yuan enough for? It’s not even enough to buy a few broken cannons! Do you really want to go to the military camp to collect garbage?”
"Uh, what do you mean?" Badjia and Hu Juncai were stunned by Shi Zhijian's sudden words!
"You have to know that arms business has always been settled in cash. If the current business exceeds 100 million, what will you do? Is it possible that you have to go to the bank for a loan halfway?"
"Ahem, Mr. Shi, we all know what you said!" Badgar coughed and said.
"You know what the heck! Don't think that because you are a ghost, and because you are Uncle Boleti, I don't dare to scold you!" Shi Zhijian's tone was so fierce that Bai Dejia blushed.
Hu Juncai even shrank his head, Shi Zhijian even dared to scold this cheap second uncle, let alone this class figure!
"When doing business, you must clearly distinguish what kind of business it is! You can't do arms trading at all if you are doing it in a small way! Go and see if there is an arms tycoon in the world who started his business with 10 or 20 million? If you want to do it, do it to the maximum! I
I support you and give you 300 million, and I will make you a big moneymaker in the arms industry in Hong Kong!"
"Uh, what?" Badjia and Hu Juncai were so surprised that they died!
Three hundred million?!
Not only did Shi Zhijian not reject their plan to sell arms, he also actively supported them with huge amounts of money!
Badgar was stunned, his mouth opened wide, and he looked at Shi Zhijian in disbelief.
Hu Juncai's jaw dropped in shock, and his eyes almost popped out of his head! There was only one sentence in his mind: "Three hundred million!"
"Shi Shi, Mr. Shi! Did I hear you correctly?" Ghost Guy Bodega stuttered.
"You heard it right! I'll give you three hundred million, that's what I said!" Shi Zhijian said loudly.
Badgar looked at Hu Juncai.
Hu Juncai also looked at him.
The two of them were sure that what Shi Zhijian said was true!
Before the two of them woke up, Shi Zhijian continued: "I will give you 300 million, and you can just package the arms sales of the navy, army and air force! You tell those ghost guys that you have strong capital, and you will settle the payment in cash as soon as you see the goods."
Don’t default! Also, when you set up a company, you must make a big splash. Don’t be sneaky like thieves, for fear that others will not know that you are in the arms business! Remember one sentence, any business in this world can be illegal.
With legalization, the only difference is the size of the company and how much tax you pay to the boss! When you make your company the largest and tax payments account for a large part of the boss's income, you will become a truly large overseas trading company!"
Shi Zhijian's words were simply "fallacious theories", but to the ears of the two masters of the evil sect, Badgar and Hu Juncai, it was like a wake-up call, making their eyes light up!
In fact, as an "experienced person" Shi Zhijian has many wealth codes and golden fingers, including some information on the arms trade.
Famous Hong Kong economist Zhang Wuchang once wrote a book in 1987 called "The Ups and Downs of Hong Kong's Economy".
In this book, Zhang Wuchang tells the inside story of the British government's connivance with the senior officials of the British military stationed in Hong Kong to buy and sell arms wantonly in the 1970s.
The reason is that the British are not willing to treat expired arms as scrap, which will cost them a lot of money. On the contrary, if these expired arms are sold, it can actually help them increase their income!
Therefore, in order to "boost the British economy", the top management in the UK turned a blind eye and allowed this kind of secret operation, and even personally helped to cut the road to protect this kind of transaction!
It is precisely because of this that Shi Zhijian firmly supports Badjia and others' proposal to establish a foreign trade company to engage in arms business!
Rather than having such huge profits be made by others in the future, it would be better to put them in Shi Zhijian’s pocket!
Shi Zhijian spent 300 million. To put it bluntly, he is the real boss behind this company! Of course the money earned must be put into his pocket!
"Also, I have also thought of the name of this company for you! Since we want to do foreign trade business, we need to be more foreign-style, more solemn, and show our attitude and determination! So we just call it 'Hong Kong Patega Overseas'
Trading company'! Referred to as 'Badega Foreign Trade'!" Shi Zhijian continued.
"Uh, why do you use my name?" Ghost Guy Bodega was stunned.
Shi Zhijian said: "Isn't this great? I'll use your name to tell everyone that you are the founder of this company. As the company grows, you will soon become famous overseas!"
These words made Badjia's blood boil with excitement, and then he was ecstatic! He felt that Shi Zhijian was worthy of being his future niece-in-law. Sure enough, he thought of himself at all times! Relatives, they are relatives after all! God bless you, Amen!
How can a man not want to be famous?
Hu Juncai looked at Badjia with envy, thinking that this ghost guy was so lucky. Not only did he get 300 million yuan as a backing, but he also named the company after him. It was so cool!
How did they know that the reason why Shi Zhijian wanted to name him after Badjia was because he was not afraid of ten thousand but just in case! If this thing went wrong, the biggest scapegoat would of course be the famous Mr. "Badegaard"!
Who let this company be named after him?
Every wrongdoer has his head and every debtor has his own owner!
How do you say that? If you come out to fool around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later!
