Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 205 "205" Negotiation, Cutting Off Offspring
The next day, Fanling Golf Course.

Seeing Lin Yao hit another beautiful shot, several bigwigs from the Citizens Party applauded.

"Ah Yao, your ball skills have improved a lot!" Zeng Guoshan said with a smile.

"If you come to play often, your skill level will naturally improve quickly!" Lin Yao said with a smile.

After the game ended, Lin Yao generously tipped the caddie, and then the group found a place to rest and sat down.

Knowing they wanted to talk business, the caddies and waiters around them had already disappeared.

“Ah Yao, you didn’t explain things clearly to me on the phone yesterday. What exactly happened?” Zeng Guoshan asked curiously.

Lin Yao told a few people that he had helped Tornado in exchange for the other party's assistance with the demolition work.

"Is this tornado really that powerful?" a senior member of the Citizens Party asked with some surprise.

Guo Shirong said with a smile, "I believe everyone is well aware of the complexity of Kowloon Walled City. This Tornado is the chairman of the Walled City Security Committee, which is generally the position of the boss of Kowloon Walled City! He can manage almost everything, big and small!"

“If someone is willing to step forward, the demolition work will indeed not be a difficult task for A Yao.”

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Of course, the land is controlled by some big landlords in Kowloon Walled City. I should talk to them in the next couple of days, and I don't think it will be very cheap!"

"I definitely can't eat all of this by myself, so I need your help!"

Hearing Lin Yao say this, everyone seemed quite happy.

This means that Lin Yao considers them as his own people and is able to integrate into their group.

Lin Yao's recent development momentum is very strong, and their Citizens Party does need this kind of talent.

Guo Shirong said directly, "That's easy to say. Ah Yao, how much do you estimate it will cost for this piece of land in Kowloon Walled City?"

"It should be at least two billion!" Lin Yao said, stroking his chin. "I'll have someone do an evaluation when I get back."

“Yes, we do need to be careful about these things!” Zeng Guoshan nodded with a smile: “Money is not a problem, and as for policy… as long as you can handle the Kowloon Walled City issue, I guarantee the demolition work will definitely be done by your company!”

Lin Yao smiled and nodded: "Then thank you very much, Elder Zeng and Brother Rong. I'll discuss the details with you after I've made my arrangements!"

"Of course!" The group nodded.

After finishing their golf game, everyone was in high spirits and went for a drink.

After a few rounds of drinks, Lin Yao asked Xiao Fu to drive him home.

……

In a luxury mansion in Kowloon City.

Tornado arrived at his good friend Qiu's house with a bag of money and an account book.

Seeing Ah Qiu visiting a mourning hall in a corner, Tornado went over and lit three incense sticks.

Soon, A-Qiu came out and let Tornado sit down.

Tornado handed over the money and ledgers directly.

"Thank you for your hard work!" A Qiu nodded and said.

Tornado suddenly spoke to A Qiu, "You must have heard about the fortress being demolished, right?"

Ah Qiu nodded, sighed, and said, "I've heard about it. It's beyond repair! The English and the mainland authorities agreed together, so it's definitely going to be demolished! I just don't know who's in charge of this project!"

"Those who follow the rules are fine, but those who don't will probably face a bloodbath! Damn, all four of Hong Kong's big bosses have come to me. It seems they sent an agent named Situ Guang (Overheard 3), who has a really irritating way of speaking."

Tornado laughed and said, "They think they've got you cornered!"

"Why are you suddenly concerned about this?" A-Qiu said with a smile, "Are you worried that Xin-Yi and the others won't be settled? Don't worry, I'll take care of those kids!"

Tornado shook his head and said, "No, it's just that a friend of mine is also eyeing the walled city!"

"Huh? Who is it?" A-Qiu asked, startled.

“Lin Yao of Wo Luen Shing!” Tornado said directly.

A Qiu was taken aback: "Is that the kid known in the martial arts world as Immortal Yao? His business has grown so big now?"

“It’s indeed very large. He managed to swallow up Huamao Group, and now he has some power!” Tornado said directly. “He asked me to come here, wanting to invite you to dinner and have a chat!”

Ah Qiu thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I heard that this kid has a very powerful intelligence network in Hong Kong. I just wanted to ask him to help me find Chen Zhan's son!"

At this point, A Qiu's expression turned noticeably fierce.

Hearing this, Tornado felt a sense of unease.

However, he couldn't show it in front of A Qiu.

After thinking for a moment, A Qiu said, "How about this, I'll invite him to Dahua Restaurant tomorrow afternoon, and I'll have a good talk with him!"

Tornado nodded: "Understood!"

"Thank you so much for all these years!" A-Qiu said sincerely. Tornado laughed and said, "We're brothers!"

……

The next day, at Dahua Building, A Qiu and Long Juanfeng waited for Lin Yao to arrive.

Lin Yao arrived at the private room on time and greeted him with a smile as he entered, "Brother Qiu, I've heard so much about you!"

"What great name do I have? I'm just a stinking rent collector!" Ah Qiu said with a laugh. "Sit down!"

After they sat down, A Qiu had someone pour tea for Lin Yao, and then got straight to the point: "I heard you're planning to buy my land in the walled city?"

Lin Yao nodded: "That's right, after all, the fortress will definitely be demolished, and I plan to get there first!"

Ah Qiu laughed and said, "Ah Yao, you're a bit too slow with your initiative! The four major families have already sent people to find me!"

Lin Yao was somewhat surprised to hear what A Qiu said.

However, he quickly came to terms with it, since the owners of the four major families would definitely know about the demolition of the walled city before he did.

They control every aspect of Hong Kong, so it's not surprising that they know about these things before we do.

However, judging from A Qiu's expression, he was clearly not satisfied with the conversation.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "The four major families are domineering; I doubt they'll offer a good price, right?"

Ah Qiu didn't hide anything: "That's right, he was really annoying. I kicked that manager named Situ Guang out! Compared to that arrogant guy, I still think Ah Yao is much more likable!"

Lin Yao wouldn't be fooled by such polite words; if the amount offered wasn't satisfactory, the other party would still turn hostile.

So Lin Yao said with a smile, "The dogs of the four bosses are all expensive hunting dogs, they definitely wouldn't look down on people like us!"

"Haha, that makes sense!" A Qiu said with a laugh. "But A Yao, you're probably not a simple江湖人 (jianghu person, a person of the martial arts world) anymore, are you?"

Lin Yao did not refute it; such things could be easily found out through investigation.

He didn't need to hide the fact that he was so close to the Citizens Party: "Yes, I do have a group of friends in the government!"

"What are you thinking?" Ah Qiu asked directly. "After all, those tenants in Kowloon Walled City have been renting my shop for decades. I definitely can't agree to not make proper arrangements for them! I have to give them an explanation!"

Lin Yao tapped the table and said, "I have two options: one is to compensate for the housing, and the other is to directly compensate with money!"

"Oh?" Ah Qiu said with some surprise, "There are quite a few people in Kowloon Walled City!"

“But the location is great!” Lin Yao said with a smile. “The replacement houses can’t be in the same place. The location will definitely be a bit remote, but all residents in the walled city will get one.”

“I plan to build some housing estates in Tseung Kwan O, the New Territories and other places. I will allocate a portion of these housing estates to each person, which will be 200 to 300 square feet.”

Kowloon Walled City is the most densely populated area in Hong Kong, but there are many unregistered residents there. Lin Yao doesn't care about their lives or deaths; he will only compensate those with "identity".

Of course, this identity needs to be verified by Tornado and Aqiu.

Both A Qiu and Tornado were quite satisfied with the compensation plan Lin Yao offered.

Considering the current housing prices in Hong Kong, this compensation plan is already quite generous.

As for cash compensation, I doubt any fool would be willing to give up the house and choose cash instead.

Ah Qiu nodded: "Ah Yao's approach is quite decent. Do you know what that bastard Situ Guang said? He said he'd give me a little extra money and then tell me to forget about the bandits' lives!"

"Damn it, does he really think everyone is like these capitalists?!"

Hearing what A Qiu said, Lin Yao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The two sides had made a good start, which was a good thing!
"Brother Qiu is kind and righteous!" Lin Yao complimented.

Ah Qiu waved his hand and said, "Don't flatter me, I'm just doing some menial work!"

Soon the food was served, and A Qiu kept urging Lin Yao to drink.

Lin Yao, relying on his physical abilities, accepted almost everyone who came, which drew cheers from A Qiu.

After a few rounds of drinks and several dishes, A Qiu put his arm around Lin Yao's shoulder and said, "A Yao, I don't care about money. I don't even have any descendants. When I get old, no one will take care of me and see me off in my old age."

"So, I only have one request: I want you to help me find someone!"

Upon hearing this, Tornado's expression immediately changed, and he stared intently at Lin Yao.

After all, Ah Qiu made so many concessions, and this is real money!
Who knows if Lin Yao will be tempted?
Lin Yao glanced at the tornado, smiled, and said to A Qiu, "What does Brother Qiu want me to do?"

“I know you’re always well-informed, I want you to help me find someone!” A Qiu said directly.

"Who is it that warrants such a grand display from you, Brother Qiu?" Lin Yao asked with a smile.

"The enemy who killed my whole family back then, Chen Zhan's son!" A Qiu said to Lin Yao with deep hatred in her voice, "His wife and children escaped back then, his wife is dead, but his son is still alive. I will make him taste what it means to be childless and without descendants!"

Hearing what A Qiu said, Lin Yao said with a troubled expression, "But Brother Qiu doesn't even have a name. Finding someone like that is like looking for a needle in a haystack!"
