Chapter 232

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled as he looked at Inspector Mo.

He had investigated Inspector Mo's background: a police academy graduate with no connections, starting out as a beat cop, much like Chen Guozhong.

A person like this who could rise to the rank of Chief Inspector was definitely a talent, and one who would still possess a flexible bottom line.

If he lacked that flexibility, he would be like Wang Weiye—stubbornly adhering to principles and overly righteous; let alone getting promoted, he would be lucky not to be ostracized by his colleagues.

Inspector Mo looked at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, his eyes hesitant.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything overly illegal. I just need your help with some matters that aren't very serious. If you don't want to do them, you don't have to. The cooperation between us is very flexible."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Mo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

If it wasn't too illegal, then that was nothing to worry about.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Cooperating with me can also bring you benefits. I will send you cases from time to time, like this Ghost King Party case... I have a massive number of subordinates and a broad grassroots foundation, so providing cases is very easy for me."

Hearing this, Inspector Mo's eyes lit up.

This was a huge attraction!

Without another word, Inspector Mo raised his glass: "It is my honor to cooperate with Brother Zu!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Happy cooperation!"

Clink!

They downed a cup of tea.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu took out two "200,000 Five-Win Lottery Vouchers" and placed them on the table.

"What is this?"

Excuse him, forgive Inspector Mo for being such a poor wretch that he had never seen such a thing.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu didn't speak, but pointed to a few words and said: "Bearer-only..."

Inspector Mo's eyes widened: "!!!"

What?

There was actually such a good thing?

Inspector Mo was deeply shocked!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu whispered: "Keep one for yourself, and give one to Superintendent Dai."

Inspector Mo understood completely now.

He was inexplicably shocked inside.

Brother Zu was truly too thoughtful; he had even pointed out the clear path for him!

If it were cash, he wouldn't dare take it, nor would he dare give it to his superior, but this thing—he absolutely dared to take it!

Thinking of how he had been charging on the front lines for years, he had simply lacked the background connections to move up. With this, he could finally make a push!

"Brother Zu!"

Inspector Mo stood up, his eyes red with genuine emotion.

Repaying the lord's favor on the golden platform, one would offer their life for the lord with the jade dragon!

"Thanks!"

"Waiter, bring me two bottles of red wine!!"

Soon, the waiter brought two bottles of red wine and opened them.

Inspector Mo picked up a bottle,

"From now on, Brother Zu, you are my, Mo Jiahua's, benefactor and brother!"

He tilted his head back and drank wildly.

"I'll finish this bottle!"

With this meal, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu gained another "family member."

This man, Inspector Mo Jiahua, was good to his subordinates, capable, and valued affection and righteousness.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu would not be stingy with his investment in such a person.

As long as he had the support of a noble person like Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, Mo Jiahua would surely soar into the sky in the future.

Inspector Mo Jiahua was still not steady enough.

That very night, he took the 200,000 in vouchers and went to Superintendent Dai's home.

On the surface, it was naturally to report on the Ghost King Party case.

In reality, he was prepared to give Superintendent Dai a gift.

The Anti-Triad Unit Chief of the Wong Tai Sin Police Station, Superintendent Zhang, had died, and the position of Chief was vacant.

And what about Mo Jiahua? He had just been transferred from the New Territories police station, bringing a few partners along, and was unfamiliar with the area.

Before, he had no backer.

Now that he had money, he naturally had to find one.

Finding a backer in the police station naturally meant finding Superintendent Dai.

After reporting for 10 minutes,

Seeing that the timing was right, Mo Jiahua quietly took out the voucher and handed it to Superintendent Dai.

"???"

Is this how crude gift-giving is?

Handing it directly to me?

Forgive Inspector Mo for being a novice at gift-giving with no experience.

Superintendent Dai saw the voucher and felt it looked familiar, though the denomination was a bit small.

Then, after probing around, he learned that Mo Jiahua had eaten with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu that night.

Superintendent Dai immediately became much more enthusiastic.

One of his own!

"I've heard before that your ability to handle cases is excellent, and you've solved countless ones!"

"And this Ghost King Party matter further confirms that!"

"Don't worry, I will report the case to the higher-ups tomorrow!"

"Work hard for me in the future!"

Once these words were spoken, Mo Jiahua felt invigorated.

This gift was given correctly!

This meant he was being taken on as a trusted aide!

At this moment, Mo Jiahua suddenly understood why others liked giving gifts.

It really is sweet!

Disgust, understanding, joining!

Half an hour later, Mo Jiahua left Superintendent Dai's home in excitement.

And Superintendent Dai made a phone call to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.

At this time,

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, on a mission to pick up girls, um... with Le Le Huizhen.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was actually a gentleman and a good husband; if he hadn't been ordered to pick up girls, he wouldn't have developed a relationship with Le Le Huizhen.

Wife Ruan Mei, wouldn't you agree!

And Le Le Huizhen finally got her wish.

Her idol had finally been captured by her; although she was the "little one," who could blame her when Brother Zu was so charming?

Ring ring ring~~~

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's phone rang.

"Hello, Superintendent Dai, it's so late, is something the matter?"

"Mo Jiahua from my Anti-Triad Unit came to my house today." Superintendent Dai didn't mention the money.

"So urgent?... But this person is good, values affection and righteousness, and can be cultivated."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu recounted what had happened at the hospital.

Superintendent Dai nodded: "Good."

He didn't say "Since you think so highly of him, I'll take him under my wing," but both sides understood the meaning; it wasn't convenient to talk on the phone.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at Le Le Huizhen beside him and suddenly had an idea: "Superintendent Dai, I have a reporter friend. How about letting her go over to do an exclusive interview on the Ghost King Party case?"

Superintendent Dai's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Good idea!"

The Ghost King Party matter should logically have been reported thoroughly, but the problem was that there was a police mole, which made them afraid to invite reporters over.

If there was a reporter they could trust and the content could be controlled, it would be a good thing for the Wong Tai Sin Police Station.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Then are you free tomorrow?"

Superintendent Dai: "No problem!"

A new day, and Le Le Huizhen excitedly took her DV camera to the Wong Tai Sin Police Station.

Meanwhile, the Five-Star Charity Foundation had already started getting busy.

The third "Knowledge Cup," launch!

Liang Xiaorou and Wei Jixiang started working themselves to the bone.

Xie Weihao, who had originally wanted to hide in the charity foundation to have time to study for university, was completely stunned by a mountain of tasks.

No, why is it so busy here?

It's busier than when I worked two jobs!

On the other side, Sang Bo was cursing and swearing while sitting in a police car, being sent to court.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Wei Jixiang were in attendance.

Along with a bunch of jurors who had taken money.

The members of the Hong Kong jury were citizens randomly selected from all over Hong Kong, not lawyers with legal knowledge. According to regulations, citizens who were selected would not be selected again for a long time, making it almost a one-time job.

After an hour of court proceedings, the evidence was conclusive, and the jury unanimously gave their opinion that he should be severely punished.

"Bang~~"

As the judge's gavel fell,

Sang Bo was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Sang Bo started a round of cursing, swearing at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and the judge: "Damn it, bastard, %￥%#... &&... %..."

The judge was so angry that he added another year to Sang Bo's sentence on the grounds of "contempt of court and insulting the judge."

Sang Bo: "............"

He was so angry his lungs were about to explode!

Damn it, I've already been sentenced, how can you continue to add to the sentence?

This way of playing is too dirty!

The next day, Sang Bo was sent to Stanley Prison in a prison van along with other criminals.

Just as he was sent into the prison, Killer Da Ji said in front of Ding Xie that Sang Bo had run out and raped a decent woman, so the "angel baby" Ding Xie beat Sang Bo up.

"Dad~~~!" The three Ding sons pulled Ding Xie away with splitting headaches and apologized to Sang Bo repeatedly.

Sang Bo was so angry he vomited blood.

In the evening,

A Mercedes, license plate CA97, drove from the Southern District of Hong Kong Island to the Peninsula Hotel. (From "The Great Thief")

Sitting in the car was Tycoon Li Ji.

This afternoon, Manager Wang Bo had handed over the collected information about Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu to Tycoon Li Ji.

Because Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Boss Li had confronted each other last time, Tycoon Li Ji had been in the UK negotiating business, so he didn't know the whole process, and after returning to Hong Kong, he hadn't paid attention to this person named Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu because he was too busy.

After reading the information, Tycoon Li Ji's first reaction was: Damn, this is a gangster?

This is way more awesome than a gangster.

!.

Good reputation, great power, rich!

Of course, none of these compared to the Li family; after all, the Li family had a better reputation among the elite and was a hundred times more powerful.

However, the only thing that Tycoon Li Ji found strange was why his father hadn't taught Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu a lesson? Checking him with the ICAC, tax department, fire department, and police force—he didn't believe they couldn't find problems with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.

After all, whose gangster is clean?

Right!

Tycoon Li Ji felt a piece of the puzzle was missing.

He hadn't figured it out yet.

But it didn't matter; today he had to take Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu down.

Soon, they arrived at the Peninsula Hotel.

Arriving at the private room,

"???"

Tycoon Li Ji found the room empty; Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu hadn't arrived yet.

Good fellow, I, the dignified son of the richest man, Tycoon Li Ji, the future successor, and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu didn't arrive early to welcome me?

Beside him, Wang Bo was even more anxious than Tycoon Li Ji: "Young Master, look, I told you this Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu is unruly; he is slapping you in the face!"

Tycoon Li Ji nodded; this arrogance, he had indeed witnessed it.

Entering, they took their seats.

Not long after, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu arrived with Following Xiao Fu and the others.

Walking into the private room.

"Sorry, Young Master Li, there was a traffic jam on the way."

Young Master Li curled his lips: "What kind of car are you driving?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu sighed: "Alas, poor, a Mazda!"

Young Master Li: "Driving a Mazda, of course there's a traffic jam~~"

Both sides took their seats.

Young Master Li sized up Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu; although he had seen Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu from the photos in the information, seeing the real Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, he couldn't help but be surprised.

This temperament was very extraordinary—imposing, dignified, and confident.

Ordering food.

Then drinking, but Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu refused directly.

"Sorry, my wife says drinking is bad for your health, so I've quit drinking."

Tycoon Li Ji: "Haha, then let's drink tea~~"

After chatting for a while, the food was soon served.

Eating and chatting, the atmosphere was about right, and Tycoon Li Ji started to talk about business.

"Mr. Guan, regarding the house over there, give me a number, and let's have a happy cooperation, how about that?"

"Eh, Tycoon Li Ji is joking; if you say that, wouldn't I become someone who extorts and blackmails?"

Tycoon Li Ji was embarrassed!

Wang Bo was embarrassed!

Aren't you just that kind of person?

Still pretending for me!

Stop pretending, we are all the same kind of people!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu drank tea leisurely, saying: "Do you know how I get my subordinates to do good deeds? One good deed, 20 Hong Kong dollars. Every day, the thousands of subordinates under me perform at least 10,000 good deeds. I support this with 200,000 Hong Kong dollars every day; that's 6 million a month."

"You tell me, am I a true philanthropist or a fake one?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's mouth curled slightly.

Tycoon Li Ji and Wang Bo were both shocked.

Is it this outrageous?

Spending money to get subordinates to do good deeds?

A philanthropist of nine generations!

Tycoon Li Ji's first reaction was that it was bragging; impossible!

However, Young Master Li didn't want to argue; he just wanted to solve the problem:

Taking a sip of tea, Tycoon Li Ji: "Let's not talk about empty things. What do you want? Just state your conditions directly!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said: "My starting point is still these residents."

"First, regarding the rotten things you've been doing lately—splashing paint, blocking keyholes, splashing lard..."

"You need to apologize to the public."

"Impossible!"

Tycoon Li Ji refused flatly.

"We didn't do those things; we can't stand up and apologize."

No matter what, this matter could not be agreed to.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu chuckled: "If you won't apologize, that's fine, then add money. The money must be enough, and you must make these residents leave willingly."

Tycoon Li Ji smiled: "How about this, Mr. Guan, I'll give you a plan."

"There are a total of 98 households. For the residents who moved out earlier, the compensation I gave was an average of 600,000 per household. For these 98 households, that's 60 million. I'll give you, Mr. Guan, 100 million. How to negotiate specifically is up to you, Mr. Guan; the remaining money is all yours."

Manager Wang Bo shouted.

Good fellow!

Young Master is truly amazing!

Aren't you, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, very awesome? Then I'll throw the problem to you, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu! Let's see how you solve it!

If you, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, are a bit greedy, then your name as a philanthropist will collapse. If you aren't greedy... Heh, how could you not be greedy?

Young Master's move instantly turned the tables!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a moment: "100 million, as far as compensation goes, is no problem... However, you've done so many things this time and even caused the death of a resident. Just like I said, you have to add money! Add 20%!"

"Bang~~~~"

Wang Bo slapped the table directly and said angrily: "Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, don't push your luck..."

Before he could finish,

Bang~~~

The teapot used for brewing tea was thrown over, hitting him directly on the head. The boiling tea splashed onto his head, scalding him so much he screamed.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu wiped his hands, his temperament gentle and elegant: "Who do you think you are? Shut up for me!"

Tycoon Li Ji: "............"

He had also been startled just now, never expecting Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu to suddenly resort to violence.

From entering the door until now, he finally saw the gangster temperament in Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu for the first time.

Originally, Tycoon Li Ji had wanted to take Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu as a subordinate and have him serve him.

But looking at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's arrogant and domineering appearance, he didn't look like someone who wanted to be under anyone.

Tycoon Li Ji thought for a moment and smiled:

"Good!"

"I'll give you 120 million! How much you can earn depends on you, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu!"

Raising his glass.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled and raised his glass.

Clink!

Drained in one gulp.

After the meal,

Tycoon Li Ji sat in the car and made a phone call to his father, Boss Li, recounting the matter.

"120 million, although the expenditure is much higher, it solved the problem."

"It also threw the problem to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, letting us take the initiative."

"Very good!"

Boss Li praised Tycoon Li Ji.

Tycoon Li Ji said: "Dad, this Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu doesn't give us face and opposes us every time; we must teach him a lesson."

Outside observers comment: Tycoon Li Ji is low-key and steady by nature, but very tough in business, never missing an opportunity to earn a penny from a transaction.

But!

As the son of the richest man, he has his own pride; being low-key and steady is only for those of the same class to see. For Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, who had pitted the Li family twice in a row, he naturally had to teach him a lesson!

Boss Li: "How do you want to teach him a lesson?"

Tycoon Li Ji: "I want to find the ICAC, tax department, industry and commerce, police force, fire department... to investigate him..."

Boss Li: "Useless. The Li family already tried this method last time, and they couldn't find any problems."

Tycoon Li Ji: "???"

Boss Li: "The best way is still propaganda... I don't understand why this Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, a gangster, wants to promote his charity so vigorously to improve his reputation, but I feel he must have a big plan. We can prescribe the right medicine and suppress him in this regard."

Tycoon Li Ji's eyes lit up: "Dad, you are truly too wise!"

On the other side,

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu sat in the car, deep in thought.

He always felt that this Young Master Li had ill intentions.

After thinking for a while, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu made a phone call to Mao Xiang Yang:

"Brother Mao, are you free for a late-night snack?"
