Chapter 245: Too Much Bullying!

The situation is even more serious than imagined!

Before Wu Feng could set off to the main hall to preside over the big picture and soothe the hearts of the people, the territory of Hung Hing in Mong Kok encountered inspections by the police and various departments.

"Wusheng, this time the Mong Kok Police Station is just going through the motions!"

On the phone came the explanation from his good ally, Senior Inspector Xu Renjie.

"I am not afraid of the trouble, I am just afraid that the police station and other departments doing this will affect the customer flow!"

Wu Feng's expression was calm as he joked: "If the tax revenue this month drops, I reckon the Yau Tsim Mong District Councilors will hold you accountable, and the District Government will likely pin the blame on you!"

What a joke; his management over the past two years had not been in vain.

At the very least, in the Mong Kok and Sai Kung regions, the price one would have to pay to look for trouble with him was not something to be taken lightly.

The Superintendents of the two police stations were both high-level police officials at the Superintendent rank, and they were close interest allies with Wu Feng; they certainly would not sit idly by.

Furthermore, as long as one was not a fool or blind, one would know how great Wu Feng's existence was for boosting the economy of Sai Kung.

As for Mong Kok, the sports and entertainment events on Garden Street had already become the calling card of Mong Kok.

The Yau Tsim Mong District Councilors and District Government Officials often showed their faces by cutting ribbons and presenting awards at the colorful sports and entertainment events on Garden Street, maintaining a relationship that was better than average.

Tongcai Street already had the flair of what would later become Woman Street.

Every day there were outdoor fashion shows and various outdoor karaoke competitions emerging one after another, attracting a large number of female customers to participate, and the customer flow was increasing every month.

As everyone knows, the money of women and children is the easiest to earn; the turnover of Tongcai Street was also rising day by day, and the taxes paid were naturally increasing as well.

Therefore, regarding Xu Renjie's reminder, he directly gave a 'warning'.

That person from Macau might be very powerful, and even have quite a friendship with the Governor and the high-level officials of the Hong Kong government.

Wu Feng was naturally far inferior in this regard due to the time factor.

Relying on his relationship with the Sai Kung Police Station and the Mong Kok Police Station, he could currently only make contact with the Deputy Commissioner of Police, and had not yet formed a relatively good relationship.

Through the Sai Kung District Government and the Yau Tsim Mong District Government, he also had contact with some high-level officials of various Hong Kong government agencies.

But still, as the saying goes, the time was too short; it could only be said that they were familiar faces.

Of course, given the current state of the Hong Kong British Government, as long as the Hong Kong Dollar or Dollar was provided in place, many things were quite easy to handle, but it had not reached that point yet.

"Ah Feng, do you have to be this ruthless?"

Even through the receiver, one could clearly hear the sound of the person on the other end gasping.

"It is not that I am ruthless; the key is that the police station and government agencies inspect from time to time, which greatly affects business!"

Wu Feng said indifferently: "You also know that some nightclub customers do not want to run into the police!"

'I understand, I understand!'

Xu Renjie explained with a bitter smile: "In fact, the police station here has already withstood quite a bit of pressure!"

"Hehe, it is only a matter of a few days!"

Wu Feng comforted him: "After a few days, the situation will not be so passive!"

"Why, Ah Feng, do you still have connections with the ghosts?"

Xu Renjie deliberately lowered his voice and said somewhat excitedly: "You guy, you hide deep enough; you must not forget the benefits for your brother in the future!"

"Xu SIR, you are overthinking it!"

Wu Feng said irritably: "This matter is clearly a dispute between that person from Macau and Hung Hing!"

"You know better than I do what those ghosts in the Hong Kong British Government are like, don't you?"

"As long as it does not involve their core interests, they are hoping that the big tycoons of the Hong Kong Chinese will fight as fiercely as possible, so that they can reap more benefits, right?"

"Isn't it just throwing money? That person from Macau can afford to throw it, and Hung Hing can also fight it out!"

The closer it got to '97, the more unscrupulous the high-level ghosts of the Hong Kong British Government became in amassing wealth.

Not to mention anything else, just take the Hong Kong identity card that makes many people in the Mainland envious.

Previously, the Hong Kong British Government was quite cautious about the issuance of Hong Kong identity cards.

At the very least, they would not lift the restrictions, and even the signature quotas for identity cards held by high-level police officials were very limited.

But at this time, the Immigration Department of the Hong Kong British Government had already begun to openly sell identity card quotas.

This was a blatant means of amassing wealth; one Hong Kong identity card could be sold for the price of 80,000 Hong Kong Dollars.

Just think about it, if 10,000 identity cards were sold, that would be 800 million in revenue!

Even if the matter blew up, they could just let the Chinese officials in the department take the fall.

There were not a few such things, such as taxi licenses, or even scrap yard licenses; those were real resources.

It can be said that the closer it got to '97, the more rampant the ghosts in the Hong Kong British Government became!

Like this time, that person from Macau wanted to mess with Hung Hing's venues through connections, and that cost money.

Just as Wu Feng said, the ghosts in the relevant agencies of the Hong Kong British Government must be hoping that such things happen more often and the bigger the commotion, the better, so that they could reap more benefits.

Wu Feng had no better way at the moment, so he could only throw money at it.

"Xu SIR, you don't have to be disappointed!"

Seeming to see the disappointment on the face of the person on the other side of the receiver, Wu Feng said with a smile: "As long as the money is given readily, won't the relationship be built over time?"

"Yes, that is indeed the logic!"

Xu Renjie was invigorated, and his tone became cheerful: "Then I will wait for your good news!"

After hanging up the phone, Wu Feng's expression remained calm, but his mood was not very pleasant.

"Big Brother, the situation in our Sai Kung and Mong Kok is still quite good, and it has not been affected much!"

At this time, his subordinate Straw Sandal Li Xin told him some bad news: "But the situation in other halls is not very good; their nightclub business has been greatly disturbed!"

"Hmph, a bunch of trash!"

Wu Feng said unhappily: "Call those Hall Masters and tell them all to take action!"

"If you have connections, use them, and by the way, throw the money in place; you must quickly resolve these unfavorable factors!"

"At the very least, we cannot let outsiders laugh at us!"

After speaking, he waved his hand to signal Li Xin to attend to other matters, and he stepped directly into a modified van, surrounded by over a dozen capable fighters and two six-man bodyguard teams.

Subsequently, a convoy of five modified vans started simultaneously, forming a motorcade that drove toward the Hongxing headquarters.

Hmm?

Just as the van convoy left Shanghai Street, Wu Feng, sitting in the middle van, suddenly felt a wave of panic, and his complexion turned extremely ugly in an instant.

"Make calls and have the brothers in Shanghai Street and Portland Street all take action!"

"Mainly search for those strangers who possess a special aura; do not alert the enemy!"

"I suspect there are gunmen lurking outside Shanghai Street!"

The Underling in the same vehicle changed expression and hurriedly picked up the mobile phone to pass the word down.

Why was it only a sense of panic?

The modified van Wu Feng was riding in had bulletproof glass on all windows.

If palpitations occurred, it meant the gunmen had long guns, which the bulletproof glass could not withstand.

"Big Brother, the other side is truly going too far!"

White Paper Fan Wang Zhi, who was riding in the same modified van, said coldly: "Should we send people to Macau to handle things?"

"Wait until after the general meeting concludes before making a decision!"

Wu Feng said slowly: "If we are going to act, the entire Hongxing must move together!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment, then revealed a look of sudden realization.

When they arrived at the headquarters, Wang Zhi took a call and announced with a face full of joy: "Big Brother, we caught two gunmen; we didn't give them a chance to resist!"

"Then send them here to the headquarters!"

Wu Feng said indifferently: "If we don't let those Hall Masters see for themselves, they will think this matter can be easily brushed off!"

The five modified vans parked in sequence, and over a dozen fighter Underlings were the first to get out; after looking around to ensure there were no issues, Wu Feng then stepped out under the protection of his bodyguard teams and entered the headquarters' main conference room.

"Feng Ge, is there a need to be this exaggerated?"

Seeing the posture of Wu Feng surrounded by bodyguards, protecting him tightly, Xihuan Hall Master Jige, who had arrived a step early, spoke in an exaggerated tone.

The other Hall Masters all looked at Wu Feng with strange expressions.

"Hmph, when I left Shanghai Street by car, I sensed the presence of gunmen!"

Wu Feng was not polite at all, sat directly in the Dragon Head seat, and snorted: "In a while, those captured gunmen will be sent here; when that happens, you can interrogate them yourselves and you will know!"

Once these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the already dull main conference room became a few degrees more oppressive.

"Is there a need to be this exaggerated?"

Jige spoke again: "Feng Ge, that person in Macau is not easy to provoke!"

"In my opinion, it would be better to invite Mr. Jiang and the others to return as soon as possible!"

Sham Shui Po Hall Master Jing Ma, Tuen Mun Hall Master Xingshu, and others nodded in agreement, all putting on a look of unease; those who didn't know better might have thought they were scared witless.

"Mr. Jiang and the others will not be returning in the short term!"

Wu Feng said coldly: "Regarding this matter, we Hall Masters remaining in Hong Kong must quickly come up with a plan; we cannot continue like this!"

"Then Feng Ge, what are your thoughts?"

Jige asked: "Are we going to ask someone to help mediate?"

"Heh, how to mediate?"

Wu Feng retorted: "Is it to have Mr. Jiang and the others voluntarily stop the Gambling Ship business?"

"If you can persuade Mr. Jiang and the others, I have no objections!"

"This..."

Jige was momentarily speechless, and at this time Feilao Li asked: "Then according to Feng Ge's meaning, is our Hongxing going to clash with that person in Macau?"

Once these words were spoken, all the Hongxing Hall Masters present were shocked.

Clearly, they held great psychological pressure regarding that person in Macau.

Yet Feilao Li at this moment had a look of 'firmness', as if as long as Wu Feng said yes, he would immediately roll up his sleeves and have a big fight with that person in Macau.

Those who didn't know better might have thought he was Wu Feng's devoted Underling, though in reality, that was naturally not the case.

"Everyone speak up, what have you all encountered?"

Wu Feng did not rush to state his position, but instead let the Hall Masters present vent their grievances.
