Chapter 463 Banquet
Chapter 463 Banquet
There were three people in a stretched business car. Bai Baoshan looked at Xu Damao's business suit and nodded. This was much more appropriate.
A convoy of five cars boarded the ferry and stopped in front of the Peninsula Hotel after landing.
At this time, many people were already there.
Bai Baoshan also saw that many of his followers were holding Hualian Communications communicators in their hands.
Haha ...
Bai Baoshan had a sense that everyone in the world was using the communicator he made.
Some people were obviously very familiar with Xu Damao and came over to try to establish a relationship with him.
Xu Damao wanted to introduce Bai Baoshan, but was stopped by Bai Baoshan.
Bai Baoshan even moved to the wrong position and stood next to Wang Debiao.
Those who had greeted Xu Damao exchanged a few words with Wang Debiao, but they also looked at Bai Baoshan curiously.
There was no long greetings at the door before everyone was allowed to enter the hotel.
The invitation to today's bureau was written by the Chief Superintendent himself.
And those who came were all prominent figures in the upper class.
He even invited Xu Damao, who had just started to show his talent.
As for why Bai Baoshan was invited, I don’t know.
Didn’t you see that Wang Debiao was also among the invited guests?
If it weren't for Bai Baoshan's suppression, Wang Debiao would be like the emperor of the underworld now.
When we entered the hotel, we saw a dozen or so police officers standing there in police uniform. Judging from the shoulder straps, they were all trainee inspectors, a few inspectors, and two superintendents.
This card room is big enough.
When they arrived at the banquet hall on the second floor, Xu Damao leaned over and whispered to Bai Baoshan, "I saw you, brother. That's Chief Superintendent Barron Henry. He's not a good guy. He'll do anything for money, but he's a coward and afraid of death."
"I understand. Let's see what the situation is first." Bai Baoshan replied calmly.
Barron Henry knew basically who were coming, otherwise he wouldn't have sent them invitations. However, many people smiled when they saw the Englishman, but overall they didn't look very happy.
As for why these people were invited here, it was probably to stabilize Hong Kong.
Some time ago, more than 4 people disappeared from their camp. Now there are only 900 Chinese guards and more than 300 Chinese special police officers. The rest are Chinese police officers from all over the country, totaling more than 1 people. All together, there are about 1 people.
But the British have basically no strength left. However, they still have a fleet stationed in the harbor. There are only more than 500 people, all of whom are ship crew members. The combat force is only about 120 people. Everyone knows that once there is a riot, none of these British people will be able to escape.
This is why the Chief Superintendent invited all the people from the black and white worlds to come.
On the way, Wang Debiao told Bai Baoshan about a very amazing girl, whom Wang Debiao called the Thirteenth Sister.
Seeing that the boy seemed interested, Bai Baoshan did not expose him.
Now Hualian Society is no longer considered a social organization, but a large part-time employer.
No one is fixed. Today you are carrying bags at the dock, and the day after tomorrow you may have to sweep the streets. The day after that you may be collecting money and selling tickets at the door of a bar, or you may be a waiter inside.
It is also possible that you will be asked to replace an employee who has taken temporary leave from a company.
No matter what you do, you will get paid, and the society now pays you weekly, with last week’s wages settled on Tuesday of every week.
It's almost a miracle that we can stabilize in just half a month.
With the help of a group of white paper fans, Wang Debiao also had personal charm. He was a real massacre of tens of thousands of people. With just a machete, he killed tens of thousands of people from all the famous gangs in Hong Kong in one day.
This fighting power is a sign of strength just standing there motionless.
When Wang Debiao pointed out the Thirteenth Sister to Bai Baoshan, the woman also looked towards Wang Debiao.
As for the expression in his eyes, I don’t know.
"You must be Bai Baoshan, Mr. Bai." Barron Henry blocked Xu Damao and the other two at the door, but just nodded to Xu Damao.
It seems that this white guy knows me.
"I'm."
"I am so glad to see you. Our Governor Brandon asked me to see you and say hello."
"Well, say hello to him for me too."
"Oh... Mr. Bai, please come in. We have reserved a seat for you."
"Thank you."
Bai Baoshan walked in. Now Xu Damao didn't dare to walk in front. His aura was several levels lower than Bai Baoshan's. If Wang Debiao hadn't pushed him from behind, this guy would probably have sat on the ground.
A group of people came towards Bai Baoshan.
At first glance, it was an old acquaintance.
"Dr. Lou."
"Oh, Mr. Bai, we meet again. Damao, why don't you invite Mr. Bai to visit your home?" Lou Bancheng greeted Bai Baoshan and then gently complained to Xu Damao.
"Dad, I will definitely invite my brother to visit me at home when I have time, don't worry.
Big brother, second brother, third sister." Xu Damao also greeted the people behind him.
The three of them came over to exchange a few words.
Then go over and take a seat.
There is a hall with an extra-long table in the middle. There are several seats reserved at the top with names on them.
Bai Baoshan's seat was reserved, a little bit at the very top.
However, Xu Damao did not reserve a seat and sat together with several people from the Lou family.
Wang Debiao also followed Xu Damao.
In name, this guy is Xu Damao's bodyguard.
After Wang Debiao sat down, no one dared to sit in the seats next to him. However, people from other clubs came over and bowed to Wang Debiao. Wang Debiao nodded, and then he sat down.
When the Thirteenth Sister was looking at her seat and biting her lip, Wang Debiao pointed at the one next to him. The woman hesitated for a few seconds but finally walked over.
To be honest, if Wang Debiao hadn't informed his subordinates, half of Bolan Street would have been the home of the Hualian Society long ago. How could there be a place for Thirteenth Sister?
She sat down, but the younger brothers behind her didn't sit down, so they found a place to sit at the back. There were already many people sitting here, basically the big bosses and followers of those people at the table.
In the past, when the Hong Kong police were strong, the real boss would come in and these little brothers would wait outside the hotel. Today is different from the past.
Bai Baoshan knew all the people starting from the first few positions, and their photos were seen many times in later generations.
But now they all look a lot younger.
Opposite Bai Baoshan is Li Jiasheng, next to him is Guo Desheng, on the other side is Li Chaoji, next to Li Jiasheng are Deng Yutong and Bao Yuheng.
There are also the less well-known members of the Ho family, Ho Shili and Chen Huating.
These people hold the lifeline of Hong Kong in their hands.
Especially the new group of people who work next to Bai Baoshan, they are either in freight or real estate.
Bai Baoshan is also involved in real estate. Otherwise, what will he do with so much land?
Not only that, he also planned to intervene in Kowloon Walled City, take it over, and then lead people to other places. As for here, he would build a palace for himself. This place does not belong to Hong Kong, so it is super convenient to do anything.
Bai Baoshan thought through what he was going to do in a short while.
As for freight, we now have two terminals and there will be more in the future.
Moreover, what Bai Baoshan transported were the supplies and food that Hong Kong urgently needed.
Whoever controls food can control the lifeline of Hong Kong.
Bai Baoshan also sent people to the Philippine Island opposite.
Whether it is planting or breeding, it is the most convenient place, and the labor is not as cheap as you might imagine, otherwise people from the Philippines would not have smuggled in in large numbers. Moreover, without skills, they can only work as servants, that is, Filipino maids.
The distance across the sea is only 800 kilometers, and the trip only takes one and a half days.
Two 2-ton cargo ships and four transport aircraft are enough to supply the entire port.
While Bai Baoshan was lost in thought, the Chief Superintendent of Police came over.
There is nothing special about this gathering. In a word, it is to make everyone feel at ease.
I guess soldiers have already been transported here from the British mainland.
During this period, no one wants anything to happen.
Didn’t you see that several inspectors and chief inspectors died and no one said a word?
In the areas controlled by Hualian News Agency, there is basically no trouble caused by those petty sirs, the previous phenomenon of random charges has disappeared, and there is no crime at all.
If anyone dares to rob or harass a woman on the road, the people from the Hualian News Agency will come to their door without the need for the police to look for them.
Those who have committed crimes hope most to be found by the police officers before the people from the Hualian News Agency find them.
Otherwise, the lighter case would be broken limbs, and the worst case would be disappearance from the world.
It can be said that except for a few blocks that are not taken care of, thieves have been eliminated, hooligans have been eliminated, and people who dare to buy messy food have been eliminated.
There is only one word, and that is stability.
There is a saying circulating these days: If you have any problems, go to Hualian, it will help.
The whole banquet atmosphere was quite good.
Before leaving, the Chief Superintendent found Bai Baoshan and Wang Debiao and made an unexpected request to Bai Baoshan, which was to merge the Chinese Association into the Hong Kong government organization. Hong Kong needed this civil force to maintain public order.
Bai Baoshan refused directly. What a joke! You are going to leave the power you built yourself with just one word? Who will pay the monthly salary of more than 400 million yuan for Hualian News Agency in the future?
As soon as Bai Baoshan asked the question, the Chief Superintendent scratched his nose.
However, the Chief Superintendent gave Bai Baoshan another choice, that is, the Chinese Association would send some people to join the Hong Kong police force, and there would be three vacancies, one for the position of Chief Inspector of the Chinese Association and one for the position of Inspector of two districts.
Bai Baoshan thought that two inspector positions were too few, and finally fought hard and won six inspector positions. As for the position of chief inspector, whoever wants it can take it. Moreover, for the positions below the inspector of the six districts, we have the power to recommend, and those who are capable must be given priority for recruitment.
Central and Western District, Wan Chai District, Eastern District, Yau Tsim Mong District, Kowloon District and Shatin District.
Not only that, they also directly asked for the coastal management rights of several districts, but they wanted to transfer them to the Hong Kong branch of Yunshan Group.
As for the position of inspector, Wang Debiao was not interested in it, so he asked him to find some of his educated and ambitious younger brothers to take the position.
But there is only one thing to say: corruption will kill the whole family, this is Bai Baoshan’s bottom line.
You rely on Yunshan Group, but you still act greedily. That means you are not satisfied.
