After reviewing the skills, Li Jun summoned the Power King.
"Brother Jun!"
A moment later, a muscular man with a kind face appeared beside Li Jun and greeted him.
"Riki-Oh, from now on you're one of us."
Li Jun looked at Li Wang and smiled happily.
Li Wang didn't speak, but nodded heavily.
Li Jun then continued his operation.
Should Luo Sanpao be granted the rank of battalion commander?
Should Wang Jianjun be granted the rank of company commander?
Should Wang Jianguo be granted the rank of company commander?
Should Gao Jin be granted the rank of company commander?
The system notification sounds kept ringing in Li Jun's mind.
"Yes!"
Li Jun muttered to himself.
As Li Jun's only "sideline" at present, Luo Sanpao naturally deserves the greatest authority from Li Jun, allowing him to expand his territory at sea for himself.
The reason for giving Wang Jianjun, Wang Jianguo, and Gao Jin the rank of company commander was that he would soon be able to use the three of them in Siam. These would be three hidden cards in his hand, which might have a surprising effect.
Finally, Li Jun planned to add the remaining 10 free attribute points to Agility and Constitution, but then he discovered that after Agility exceeded 30, each additional point required 3 free points.
After a moment's thought, Li Jun added the 10 free attribute points to Strength and Constitution.
Name: Li Jun;
Strength: 26;
Agility: 30;
Physical fitness: 30;
Skills: Free Fighting (Proficient), Gambling (Master), Distinguishing Loyalty from Treachery, Danger Foresight, Divine Right of Kings, Turning Stone into Gold;
Rank: Brigade Commander (Upgrading to the next rank requires 1 million system points);
Remaining system points: 5560000;
Remaining summonables: 3500/5000 (0/50 available officers)
Summoned characters: Wang Jianjun, Wang Jianguo, Gao Jin, Feng Yuxiu, Zhang Hua, Xu Xi, Luo Sanpao, Li Wang.
Li Jun discovered that after being promoted to brigade commander, not only did the number of people he could summon increase dramatically from 1500 to 5000, but he also gained a new type of person he could summon: sergeant.
Li Jun immediately checked the system to find out what a sergeant was, and the result made him overjoyed.
Unlike the summoned soldiers, non-commissioned officers (NCOs) can be summoned repeatedly. Like the uniquely summoned character, they have their own thoughts and cognition and are independent individuals, not just tools like soldiers.
For Li Jun, these 50 elite soldiers with their own thoughts and understanding were extremely useful.
At this moment, Li Jun had already passed through the Cross-Harbour Tunnel in his car and arrived in Wan Chai, but this was not Li Jun's destination.
Tonight's grand spectacle is far more than just robbing a Fok Bank vault. Li Jun's real target isn't Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, but Victoria Peak!
Li Jun was about to go to Siam to see Jiang Tianyang off. Before leaving Hong Kong Island, he decided to resolve the troubles there first and prepare a companion for Jiang Tianyang so that he wouldn't be lonely in the afterlife...
[089] The explosion on Victoria Peak shook the entire Hong Kong Island.
Originally, Li Jun did not plan to deal with the Li family so soon.
Although the Li family seemed aggressive, it was not fatal to Li Jun.
Li Jun had a lot of fun at this table on Hong Kong Island and doesn't want to overturn it for now.
But now that the weapons are in place and the Russians have already laid the groundwork, Li Jun no longer wants to play any more games of wits with Li Xiaotian; he'd rather just physically destroy him.
Those who play politics always say that physical destruction is the lowest form of struggle, but sometimes, the lowest form is actually the highest form.
Wearing a suit and tie is simply a matter of not being able to meet other people's rules because you're not powerful enough. But if you don't want to follow those rules anymore, then you can just do whatever makes you comfortable!
At this moment, at Victoria Peak, Li Jia.
"Sir, today Zhancheng International's stock price dropped by five percent. Li Zhan suddenly intervened near the close of trading, driving up the stock price."
Li Xiaotian's secretary reported to him the details of today's stock market attack on Zhancheng International.
"That's normal. After all, Zhancheng International is the seventh-ranked real estate company in Hong Kong Island. It's not so easy to defeat them. Besides, I don't intend to defeat them in the stock market."
Li Xiaotian said calmly.
It is virtually impossible to bankrupt a healthy industrial company solely through the stock market.
The factors that could bankrupt these companies are always in reality; the stock market is just a lever that can infinitely amplify the weaknesses of rival companies.
‘Dong dong dong~’
Then, a knock came at the door.
"Sir, Mr. Edmund has arrived."
Then, the voice of Li family's butler, Awang, came in.
"Okay, take him to the tea room and wait for me."
Li Xiaotian said calmly.
Edmund, the Director of Housing of the Hong Kong British Government, was the secret weapon that Li Xiaotian used to deal with Li Zhanhe and Zhancheng International.
A few minutes later.
"Sir Edmund, good evening."
When facing the foreigners, Li Xiaotian's smile was very 'bright'.
The Li family's current power is inseparable from the support of the foreigners.
The Li family originally started out selling opium and had close ties with foreign trading companies, making them natural business partners.
Moreover, foreigners particularly like to support families with tainted reputations like the Li family. After all, such families lack backbone, and foreigners can easily manipulate them to ensure they would never dare to betray their country.
"Good evening, Sir Lee."
Edmund's smile was equally 'radiant'.
Unlike many high-ranking foreigners in Hong Kong, Edmund came to work in Hong Kong after graduating from university at the age of 22 and has been there for 27 years. He has very close relationships with these wealthy families in Hong Kong.
Especially the Li family.
Edmund's yachts at the yacht club were all sold to him by Li Xiaotian for HK$19.
The yacht, originally valued at HK$790 million, broke down shortly after it was purchased. After 113 days of 'painful' refusal, Li Xiao sold it to Edmund. Edmund, who was studying political science in university, suddenly transformed into a repairman and fixed the yacht that very day, a feat that can be called a 'Hong Kong legend'.
However, at this moment, the ICAC's usually keen sense of smell seemed to have failed them, and they readily accepted this 'Hong Kong myth'.
After all, the ICAC was established to manage the Chinese community. How can you keep a dog and let it bite its owner?
"Sir Edmund, I've heard that your wife has recently been advocating for the right to education for children in the wooden shantytowns of Hong Kong Island?"
After greeting Edmund, Li Xiaotian didn't get down to business but instead started talking about Edmund's wife.
“Sir, my wife recently met a newspaper boy from the cabin district. She was shocked by his story. You know, women are always a bit more emotional than men.”
Edmund's smile was exceptionally 'bright', clearly indicating that he knew exactly what Li Xiaotian was about to say.
"Sir Edmund, I admire Lady Edmund's kindness. Not everyone can have such a loving heart as Lady Edmund."
"I don't know if Mrs. Edmund has any plans to establish a charity, but I would like to donate HK$1000 million to this charity to contribute some love to the children in those shantytowns."
Li Xiaotian smiled slightly and spoke slowly.
What foreigners love to do most is to act like a prostitute while pretending to be virtuous.
Directly collecting money is not allowed, but setting up a charitable foundation and collecting money in the name of the foundation is acceptable.
Foreigners' moral values always remain superficial; once they've convinced themselves, they consider everything they do as reasonable.
“Sir, your generosity has surprised me. My wife is already preparing to establish a charitable foundation, and I believe she will be very happy to hear about your donation.”
Edmund's face was full of satisfied smiles.
"Sir Edmund, I want to thank your wife for giving me the opportunity to contribute my love."
Li Xiaotian said with a smile.
"Sir, I saw your planning proposals for the real estate industry this afternoon. I strongly agree with some of the suggestions. Tomorrow I will take these proposals to the Chief Secretary for Administration to discuss. If all goes well, some of the suggestions will be piloted within our Housing Department for a period of time."
Since Li Xiaotian was so polite, Edmund naturally reciprocated.
Li Xiaotian's suggestion is simple: given the serious problem of high vacancy rates on Hong Kong Island, no new land should be auctioned off before a certain percentage of land has been developed.
The ratio of land development is exactly the same as that of Champa International.
In other words, unless Champa International invests a large amount of money and spends a long time developing some real estate projects, they will no longer be able to bid for even a single square meter of land from the Hong Kong British government.
Most importantly, due to its limited strength, the land held by Zhancheng International is not in particularly good locations. In other words, it is not easy to sell, and the returns are relatively slow.
