Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 542, Section 132: Mutual Benefit (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

For the Taikoo family, there are many ways to make money, all of which are aboveboard and legitimate. At most, they may be slightly illegal, but the Department of Justice and the Chief Secretary will take the initiative to forgive them.

The four major trading companies were the representatives of Hong Kong. Hong Kong was able to become the financial center of Asia because of two things: the financial laws of its homeland and the derivative businesses of the four major trading companies.

Guo Guohao turned his head and looked at the paparazzi who had arrived even earlier than him. He was helpless. He had just left the Wan Chai headquarters when he was blocked by a traffic accident. He had to apply for a traffic uniform to clear the road.

These dedicated paparazzi can carry their cameras and take the subway, but our team, armed to the teeth, simply can't take the subway.

"Officer Guo, it looks like we'll have to prepare for an impromptu press conference. The crowd is growing, and the paparazzi have already captured footage of the evidence team counting the Fire Phoenix."

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Ding Gou walked up to Guo Guohao and looked helplessly at the continuous flashes of camera lights.

"Notify the public relations department to send someone over to inform all the paparazzi present that there is a major announcement to be made."

"Notify the marine police to block all cargo terminals. Get all the officers from the major crime squads and anti-triad squads in each district to go out and send out photos of Kou Shui Kun and Ni Luo to spread the word in the underworld that these two bastards stole three tons of goods from the Number Gang."

"Get Black Tiger and Ninth Sister out of here. Don't let Shenxian Jin and Deng Qi get away either. Invite them to my office for tea. Don't use the word 'arrest'."

“Don’t let Handsome Sheng get away either. If the Double Flower Red Stick of the Water Room is left outside, it’s bound to cause trouble and create a disturbance.”

"The lunatics from the Number Gang are still in Bangkok. Don't be afraid. Keep an eye on the Black and White Duo. Those two bastards have been trying to cause trouble in Yau Ma Tei."

"Bai Gusheng is about to retire. If he says he wants to fight, the gangs below him will definitely not be willing to follow. He won't be so ungrateful."

"I don't care about tomorrow. Tonight, everything must be calm. Whoever dares to stand up, I'll beat them up until they're crushed."

“Ding Gou, if you’re not interested in going on TV, then go do something else. If you want to become a big star, then stay here and I’ll let someone else do it.”

After Guo Guohao finished speaking, he walked to the command vehicle without waiting, chased away all the men around him, picked up the microphone, called the headquarters radio station, and contacted Shapison.

In less than a minute, the communication channel with Shapison was established.

"Boss, it's almost done! We've found two tons of Fire Phoenix."

Guo Guohao leaned against the carriage and spoke directly.

"I know!"

Shapison's voice came through the microphone; his Cantonese was becoming more and more fluent, and if you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be much different from a local.

“The Taipan of Swire just called me to express his apologies and offered to donate ten million dollars to help us continue our fight against crime.”

"Ah Hao, you did a good job this time. Brother Yi is very satisfied. Whether it's Miss Bai or pork, we can't let them go. Switch to the encrypted channel, find a quiet place, and have a chat."

Police radio stations use encrypted channels, especially for calls between officers, which are recorded on separate channels.

Guo Guohao was alone, but he still looked around, left the command vehicle, and walked to a secluded corner before speaking, "Boss, there's no one around. You can give the order."

"hehe."

"The first lesson I learned when I started working in Hong Kong was that walls have ears." "The donations from the Taikoo Group weren't for nothing. Taikoo Wharf is going to be thoroughly cleaned up, and I've already dispatched five uniformed squads to support you. The new recruits in Wong Chuk Hang are also under your command. You're really something this time!"

"When the tiger comes out on watch, it must be majestic; now the tiger wants to eat meat!"

Even on the encrypted channel, Shapison didn't explain everything too clearly, since the operators at headquarters radio station were listening to the live broadcast.

However, Guo Guohao, being from the Guo family of Wing On, immediately understood the ideas of Shapison and Taikoo Taipan: crisis is opportunity, and there is also an opportunity to grow stronger in a crisis.

Taikoo Wharf has always wanted to operate in a unified manner, and that was indeed how it was managed back then. However, when other Chinese freight companies saw Taikoo building a new wharf, they all flocked to it.

But when docks are close together, friction always arises. After several incidents involving large aircraft, everyone finally sat down to talk. After several rounds of discussions, Taikoo Wharf began to expand its scope and implement closed property management.

Swire has completed several rounds of sales, acquiring most of the warehouses and land belonging to Chinese companies in the dock area. Now, only a few companies remain unresolved, and the Wen family is one of them.

A donation of ten million!
The entire police station will benefit, including Chinese cops like Guo Guohao, who will receive a legal special contribution allowance by the end of this year.

The price to pay is to turn a blind eye and let the incident escalate.

The Wen family was not innocent in the whole affair. They not only nurtured Liangzai Sheng, but also invested in Hei Ahu.

Chi Mengli has already passed the crucial information to the undercover agents planted in the Criminal Intelligence Department, which means that Chi Mengli is innocent and did not participate in this smuggling operation.

The Wen family gave the dock warehouse to Hei Ahu, who then cooperated with Jiu Guniang to provide the warehouse with a channel for shipping goods.

Peach Blossom reported everything, and Guo Guohao had already grasped most of the facts. It was a joke that Black Tiger could handle the docks. There are many tricks up their sleeves among gangsters, but that doesn't mean that every gangster is like Four-Eyed Dragon, able to get in touch with foreigners.

In other words, the Wen family was able to get in touch with the foreigners at the docks, and the Wen family also acted as a protective umbrella for Hei Ahu in providing Jiu Guniang with warehouse space.

The Wen family is risking their lives for money!
Guo Guohao was certain that the Wen family was unaware of the situation, but someone in the Wen family was definitely aware, or perhaps the Wen family turned a blind eye, taking the money without questioning its origin.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch; they only skim the profits without paying for the meal.

"Just do your job well and don't overthink it. What's meant to happen will happen."

"I recently came across a Chinese idiom, 'a mantis trying to stop a chariot,' which means that sometimes we are like an unstoppable chariot, and sometimes we are like a mantis that is unaware of its own mortality."

"Let's go play football tonight. I'll introduce you to some new football buddies. It'll be helpful for your future."

After Shapison finished speaking, he hung up the walkie-talkie without waiting for Guo Guohao's reply.

Guo Guohao hung up the radio microphone, took out his cigarette case, lit a cigarette, and if he wasn't mistaken, there must be some senior executives from the Swire Group among the football players tonight.

Swire would also make its own demands, asking Kwok Kwok-ho to help resolve all the troubles.

Hong Kong may seem beautiful, but it is actually a gladiatorial arena where the winner takes all and the loser is left to rot.
