In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Chapter 204: Meet Han Yili Again

Lin Haoran had no idea what made Hu Xuyong dare to say such words.

Handle things for him that he can't do and be willing to be the scapegoat?
This style of doing things really doesn't seem like that of a gangster boss!
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that they would be so sincere in apologizing.

Or is it that the other party is also taking this opportunity to find a reliable backer?

Although Lin Haoran might not necessarily protect them if something happened, sometimes a casual word from him might be able to help them resolve a crisis.

Lin Haoran actually knew that the relationship between these Hong Kong societies and the wealthy families was complicated.

He had gained some understanding of 13K a few days ago. Although 13K is still a society today, after Ge Zhixiong, the leader, retired from the society's affairs, the various groups in 13K each managed their own affairs, and it was no longer a unified society in the true sense.

They are more like many gangs uniting to form a super society - 13K.

Hu Xuyong is the most powerful figure among these characters. He is the boss of the Yi character group and is also ranked among the top two in the entire 13K. Now he dominates Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok.

Hu Xuyong cannot represent the entire 13K, but he is also a leading figure among the various groups in 13K. He is very powerful in 13K and basically no one dares to offend him.

Therefore, although he only represents the Yi character pile, his weight is not light at all.

As for Ge Zhixiong, it was obvious that he only brought Hu Xuyong here this time because he didn't want Lin Haoran to blame the entire 13K.

Although he no longer wanted to be involved in anything in the 13K society, he was unwilling to see the society founded by his father in crisis just because of Lin Haoran. That was why he had to come forward and apologize with Hu Xuyong.

"I have taught those six people a lesson, so let's forget about this matter. However, Mr. Pan does need to teach his subordinates well. This time it was me who was dealt with, and I think I am easy to talk to, so you can let it go. But next time, if you meet someone else who is difficult to talk to and whom you cannot afford to offend, then things may not be resolved so easily.

As for you guys, you are really thoughtful. Okay, if I need you to do anything in the future, I will call you!" Lin Haoran decided to accept Hu Xuyong's kindness.

For him, having a powerful thug seems to be a good thing.

Of course, Lin Haoran probably wouldn't ask him for anything, so the reason he agreed to it was to put an end to the matter. Lin Haoran accepted their apology!

After hearing Lin Haoran's words, Ge Zhixiong and Hu Xuyong looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

This Mr. Lin was much easier to talk to than they had imagined.

Although they were all veterans who had been in the business for many years, they did not dare to show their aura of being big shots in front of Lin Haoran, a man who was not afraid of even the British conglomerates.

"Mr. Lin, we are guilty of this matter and it is also our fault of 13K. I have already talked to all the leaders of the Zidui below and asked them to control their subordinates and not to cause trouble. We should try our best to avoid similar things from happening again!" Ge Zhixiong also spoke.

"Well, this is your business. I can't care so much. If there is nothing else, you can go back first. I have a meeting to hold later. By the way, you can take these gifts back. I have accepted the apology, but forget about the gifts!" Lin Haoran said, pointing to the big gift bag.

Although he didn't know what was inside, for him, what else could he not get now? He didn't need the underworld to give him gifts.

"Mr. Lin, please accept it. This is our sincere apology. If Mr. Lin thinks it is too little, we can increase the amount!" After Hu Xuyong finished speaking, he opened the gift bag, revealing stacks of 100-Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Haoran estimated that there was at least one million Hong Kong dollars here.

No wonder it comes in such a big gift bag.

"Take it back. Do you think I'm short of money? Which of my companies, Hong Kong Electric Group, China Gas Company, Ching Chau Cement, etc., doesn't have a market value of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars? If you are willing, you can help me solve some troublesome problems that I can't deal with in the future. This would be the greatest sincerity to me." Lin Haoran waved his hand and answered directly.

A lot of the money in the underworld is shady and comes from unclear sources, so he has no intention of taking it.

Moreover, one million Hong Kong dollars was just a small sum of money for him, and he really didn't think much of it.

"Since Mr. Lin has said so, Zhiyong, you can take the money back." Ge Zhixiong on the side said when he saw this.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Lin. If you need my help in the future, I will do my best to help you!" Hu Xuyong said solemnly.

"Okay, let's stop here for today. I have something else to do, so I won't keep you here." Lin Haoran looked at his watch and said to them.

"Goodbye, Mr. Lin!" the two said in unison, and then they took the money and left Lin Haoran's office.

Looking at their leaving figures, Lin Haoran pondered for a moment and then ignored them.

He didn't intend to have too much contact with these gangsters.

For him, there are not many opportunities to use these people.

As a time traveler, he only needs to do business in an honest and upright manner. There is no need for him to use any unscrupulous means to make a profit.

"Weiguo, Weidong, come in." Lin Haoran shouted outside the door.

"Boss." Two people walked in.

Just now, the two of them had been guarding outside the door in case anything unexpected happened.

Although the probability of this happening is very small, we still have to take precautions.

"We will go to the police headquarters later to get gun licenses for you." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

Before this, he had discussed the matter with Police Commissioner Hon Yi-li, who had agreed to help him apply for gun licenses for the two bodyguards.

This kind of thing is very difficult to deal with for others, but for the Commissioner of Police, it is just a matter of a word.

"Boss, I haven't touched a gun in a few years. I'm looking forward to the feeling of holding a gun again." Li Weidong's eyes lit up and his face was full of anticipation.

Li Weiguo was also full of expectations. Although they were very skilled in Kung Fu, in front of a bullet, no matter how skilled they were, it was no match for a bullet!
Therefore, if they have guns, their combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.

Although the gun cannot be used at any time, at least after holding it, I feel confident and more guaranteed to protect the boss.

They have all retired for several years, and after retirement, they naturally have no chance to touch a gun again.

Now, I finally have this opportunity, and I can hold a gun openly.

This is in the North. If you are not a policeman or in the army, you have no chance of this.

I just don’t know whether the Commissioner of Police, Hon Yi-li, is at the Police Headquarters.

So, Lin Haoran first called Han Yili.

Previously, Lin Haoran had exchanged business cards with these people at Governor MacLehose's place, so he naturally had Han Yili's contact number.

The call was connected not long after.

After learning that this was Lin Haoran's purpose, Han Yili directly said that he was waiting for Lin Haoran in the office.

"Let's go. We can't delay other people's get off work time." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

At this time, it was just after four o'clock in the afternoon, and civil servants of the Hong Kong Police Force usually got off work at six o'clock in the afternoon.

The Hong Kong Police Force Headquarters is located in the Murray Building on Arsenal Street in Wan Chai. It is not far from the headquarters of the Hong Kong Electric Company Limited and it takes less than ten minutes to drive there.

There is still plenty of time.

Li Weiguo and Li Weidong followed Lin Haoran out of the Hong Kong Electric Group and drove directly to the Murray Building in Wan Chai.

Not long after, Lin Haoran and others arrived at the headquarters of the Royal Hong Kong Police.

This is also where the police office is located.

After parking the car, Lin Haoran took Li Weidong and Li Weiguo into the Meili Building.

With Han Yili's advance instructions and under the guidance of the staff, Lin Haoran smoothly took the elevator to the 19th floor and arrived at Han Yili's office.

"Mr. Lin, Happy New Year. Congratulations on acquiring another listed company. Your strength has greatly increased!" Seeing Lin Haoran, Han Yili congratulated him with a smile.

Although the newspapers have not yet published more detailed news information, this incident has already spread throughout Hong Kong through television and radio stations.

"It was purely an accident. If Mr. Li Mingze and others had not taken the initiative to sell their shares to me, I would not have had the opportunity to acquire China Gas Company." Lin Haoran said modestly.

"Have you brought your identification documents? If you have, I'll have someone apply for a gun license for you!" After a few pleasantries, Han Yili said directly.

Han Yili and Lin Haoran spoke English, so Li Weiguo and Li Weidong couldn't understand what they were saying.

"Weiguo, Weidong, take out your ID cards and give them to Director Han." Lin Haoran turned around and reminded the two brothers who didn't know what was going on.

Li Weidong and Li Weiguo then took out their Hong Kong ID cards from their pockets and handed them to Han Yili.

Ten minutes later, the relevant staff of the Police Department brought over three completed gun licenses, which were stamped by the Police Department.

That’s right, three servings.

In addition to the two bodyguards Li Weidong and Li Weiguo, Han Yili also specially obtained a gun license for Lin Haoran.

Although it is not very useful, at least if Lin Haoran has a gun, it is legal.

From today on, Li Weidong and Li Weiguo can also legally own guns in Hong Kong.

Originally, Han Yili kindly asked Lin Haoran if he wanted him to help them get a few police pistols, but Lin Haoran politely refused.

The reason is that he looks down on the pistols that the Royal Hong Kong Police are equipped with today.

The Royal Hong Kong Police has updated its gun models on a large scale since the beginning of this year, and has begun to fully equip the police force with Smith M10 revolvers, which come in long and short barrel versions.

This gun is a primary self-defense weapon. Its biggest advantage is that it is reliable in action and not afraid of misfires, but its lethality is very low, it has a limited reload capacity of only 6 rounds, and its range is also short.

It can scare off gangsters with knives, but if you really encounter well-prepared robbers, the ".38" rifle has poor firepower sustainability and a very slow ammunition replacement speed, so you can only watch the thieves with helplessness.

Given Lin Haoran's identity, he naturally planned to equip Li Weidong and Li Weiguo with more powerful guns. After all, all this was out of consideration for personal safety.

Take the Smith M10 revolver equipped by the Royal Hong Kong Police for example. To be frank, it only has a little deterrent power and its practicality is really poor.

If they really encounter an opponent who also has a gun, even if Li Weidong and Li Weiguo are excellent marksmanship, the risk will be quite high.

"Director Han, thank you very much for your help. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I am most happy to deal with friends like Director Han." After the matter was basically settled, Lin Haoran said with a smile.

"It's just a small matter, Mr. Lin, don't take it to heart." Han Yili waved his hand, obviously not taking this small matter to heart.

The reason why Han Yili helped Lin Haoran was more because Lin Haoran now had a very high status in Hong Kong's business community. Even Governor MacLeod attached great importance to Lin Haoran, so he, the Commissioner of Police, naturally did not dare to look down on Lin Haoran.

A small matter like a gun license is just something that can be done easily.
