Chapter 18: Identity Issues May Be Resolved, Nine-Tattooed Dragon Appears
"I wonder what business Brother Tai has with me this time?" Because there were other people in the tea restaurant, Da Sha could only ask in a low voice.
Cao Tai glanced at Uncle De first, and seeing that he only raised an eyebrow and then lowered his head in silence, he said softly to Da Sha, "Today I heard a great lawyer tell me a story, and because there are some parts that I don't quite understand, I wanted to ask you about it, Brother Da Sha."
A top lawyer? A story? Da Sha looked completely bewildered, his face full of confusion. This didn't seem to fit him at all! Why did this big shot want him to explain a story?
Cao Tai only told the second story of Attorney Chen today in detail. Apart from being interrupted by the waiter who brought the drinks, it took Cao Tai more than 10 minutes to tell the story clearly and thoroughly.
After crushing everything and feeding it to him, Da Sha finally understood why Cao Tai had come looking for him.
It's not that this can't be done. With my influence and connections, I could use the excuse of missing persons returning to help two people get citizenship. As long as the fees are paid, it's just a matter of some formalities.
But isn't Uncle Bao here now? The most important person is here, so Da Sha doesn't dare to overstep his bounds and turns to look at his Uncle Bao expectantly.
"This matter cannot be handled by Fuquan, after all, quite a few people are watching him! I will go back and find someone else to handle it, but if we want it to be done perfectly so that no one will dare to bring up your identities in the future, the cost will probably be quite high." Uncle De finally spoke after frowning and thinking for a while.
"How much will it cost?" Cao Tai asked confidently, having already secured his identity.
Uncle De stretched out two fingers and placed them on the edge of the table.
These days, making a decent fake ID costs tens of thousands of yuan, and if you ask someone inside to make a document that can withstand a general inspection, it might cost over 10 yuan.
For genuine missing persons who return, the normal citizenship application process might not even cost that much!
But Cao Tai is now dealing with the abnormal return of missing persons as if it were a real case, then Uncle De's two fingers represent 200 million.
Honestly, for an off-road enthusiast who has just arrived in Hong Kong, being able to come up with 2000 yuan is considered quite wealthy. Uncle De asking for 200 million yuan is really giving himself too much credit.
"If you're short on funds, I can cover it for you first, as long as you and Xiao Fu work for Fu Quan for two years."
"Don't worry, it's just Fuquan's current business; it won't involve any other messy things." Uncle De saw Cao Tai hesitate and remained silent, assuming he was short of money after arriving.
However, Uncle De highly values the abilities of Cao Tai and Xiao Fu, after all, he has never made a mistake in his judgment over the years.
During his youth, he fought against the Japanese. As an outstanding and passionate young man, he was invited to join both sides, but after consideration, he ultimately joined the Hong Kong and Kowloon Brigade. Because of his skills, he was eventually selected for the most elite pistol squad.
As we all know now, the forces behind the Hong Kong and Kowloon Brigade have accomplished the great feat of unification.
When he was a policeman, he took a liking to Li Shutang and Huang Bingyao, so he personally trained them. Li Shutang followed him for nearly ten years, while Huang Bingyao, who had the shortest tenure, followed him for nearly three years.
After resigning and returning to his hometown, Li Shutang's career indeed took off, and he is now one of the most powerful figures in the police force. Many wealthy Chinese in Hong Kong are his peers.
Wong Bing-yiu is currently serving as the Commissioner of Kowloon City Police Division with the rank of Senior Superintendent. It has been internally discussed and approved that he will assume the position of Deputy Commander of the West Kowloon Regional Operations Department and Commander of Kowloon City Police District next month. At that time, the Kowloon City Police Division, Ho Man Tin Police Division, and Hung Hom Police Division, which belong to the Kowloon City Police District, will be under his actual command.
Under certain specific conditions, the Mobile Force (B Team), Uniformed Patrol Team, EU Emergency Unit, and Traffic Patrol Group under the West Kowloon Regional Operations Department are all under his command.
In Uncle De's mind, even if Xiao Fu is not as good as the two mentioned above, he is only a little bit worse. As long as he gets the chance, his future development will definitely be brilliant.
When Uncle De first saw Cao Tai, he thought he was just an ordinary guy, except that he was slightly handsome and had a lot of charm, which allowed him to find a beautiful woman seven or eight years younger than him as his girlfriend.
When he saw Xiao Fu's unusual respect for Cao Tai, Uncle De observed him carefully and, apart from sensing that Cao Tai had served in the military, he couldn't see anything else.
However, when I was driving the three of them out of the city that night, I had a moment of dread at the checkpoint.
Then, when we arrived at the mountain to say goodbye, I felt another chill run down my spine.
He had experienced battles and escaped death many times, but he had never felt this kind of inexplicable fear before. Afterwards, he began to have some suspicions about Cao Tai, who held Xiao Fu in the highest esteem.
In fact, Cao Tai himself was unaware that he had unintentionally scanned twice with his mental power. Others were completely unaware, but Uncle De, who had experienced life-or-death trials, did feel waves of palpitations.
Having come to believe that Cao Tai was a man of great ability, it was Fuquan's great fortune to have the opportunity to have him help him for a year or two.
I didn't intend for Cao Tai and the other guy to work for Big Fool forever. It was only after Uncle De confirmed their identities that I realized that shallow waters couldn't hold back a dragon, and they would eventually rise to the top. Getting the two of them to help for a year or two was already a stroke of luck.
Cao Tai tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his calm eyes sweeping over Uncle De and Da Sha's faces. He suddenly chuckled, "I won't trouble Uncle De with the fee issue, but I do have a business deal I'd like to discuss with Brother Da Sha after this matter is resolved."
As he spoke, Cao Tai took out eight betting slips and gently placed them in front of Uncle De. Then he leaned closer and lowered his voice, saying, "These eight are betting slips from yesterday's Sha Tin race. The total prize money should be a little over two hundred. Uncle De, you can check them when you get back."
After Cao Tai sat up straight, Uncle De looked at Cao Tai's face and the stack of betting slips with a strange gaze.
Da Sha stared at Cao Tai, also marveling at his extraordinary talent.
Uncle De and Da Sha, who had previously assumed Cao Tai only had tens of thousands of yuan, were quite astonished that he could casually throw out 200 million yuan without batting an eye after only two days apart.
After a few seconds of surprise, Uncle De reached out, picked up the betting slip, and put it in his pocket. "It's more convenient than cash. This way, it's easier to ask some people for help during the process. Leave a way for me to contact you. I'll have Fuquan contact you after you've prepared everything in the next few days."
He told the two of them about the hotel they were staying at, and was just about to get up and say goodbye.
A commotion arose at the entrance of the tea restaurant. Cao Tai'an couldn't sit still. In his mind, he could already picture several people swaying and tumbling into the tea restaurant like a circus act, because it wasn't a mental scan specifically targeting Uncle De.
So Uncle De didn't feel the palpitations he had during the previous two targeted scans, but he still involuntarily tensed up, his sharp eyes suddenly piercing Cao Tai.
After glancing around and finding nothing, he looked up at the group of thugs who had surrounded the young woman and child at the next table.
Because of the cramped space, some people had already squeezed next to Cao Tai and his group at their table.
"Hey, Amon, why didn't you reply when I asked you out?" The leader of the thugs shouted exaggeratedly as he leaned closer to the girl who was dressed more normally and tutoring a child.
Seeing that the girl ignored him, he kept his head down, pointed at the test paper on the table, and said something to the child.
The thug reached out, picked up the test paper, and tossed it aside. "Ha, now you're pretending to be a lady, trying to be a good teacher!" He then reached out, pinched the child's cheek, and shook it.
The girl named Amon reached out and slapped the hand of the leader of the thugs away; one of the child's cheeks had already been pinched until it was red and purple.
"I'm going to call my dad to beat you to death!" The child clenched his fists and said in an angry, childish voice.
"Oh ho, you're going to kill me? I'm so scared!" The thug made an arrogant gesture as he looked around at his underlings. Several of his underlings started making a fuss, creating a chaotic scene.
Amidst the commotion, the leader of the thugs suddenly turned vicious, raising his hand to slap the little boy across the face.
"Hey, don't cause trouble here!" As the voice fell, the thug who was squeezed next to Cao Tai was pushed away by a strong force and bumped into the leader of the thugs. His raised hand suddenly changed from swinging to bracing, and he grabbed the back of the chair so that he was not knocked to the ground.
A long-haired man dressed in a chef's uniform was already standing next to Cao Tai, pointing at several thugs and scolding them, "Go away, don't cause trouble in the store."
The thug leader, now humiliated, steadied himself, took two steps forward, and punched the long-haired man in the chef's uniform.
He shook his head slightly. This kind of haphazard punching, which looked like something out of a street brawl, should pose no threat to the long-haired man.
Although it was obvious that the man had a limp when he came out of the kitchen, his steps were still steady, and his wrist was strong and powerful when he pushed the thug. Now, he was not flinching when the leader of the thugs threw a punch at him.
Sure enough, just before the fist was about to strike the long-haired man's face, the long-haired man quickly raised his right hand and grabbed the thug's wrist, bringing the whole action to an abrupt halt.
Before the astonishment could fully spread across the thug's face, the long-haired man twisted his wrist, and with a twist and a push, the thug leader staggered backward with a cry of pain, trying to ease the pain in his wrist.
"Man Nuoyan, nicknamed Nine-Dragon, was the most prominent gangster in Yau Tsim six years ago, and a righteous red stick."
He led the conquest of nearly half of He Yi's territory back then, but I heard that he got into trouble in Siam and hasn't been seen for six years.
Over the past few years, He Yi has given away almost all the territory he conquered. Now, Xintiandi Street only occupies half of the street, while the other half has been taken over by Hong Tai.
The remaining Wusong Street and Parkes Street only occupy a section of each other, surrounded by several triad forces, and can only be huddled together.
Back in the day, Nine Dragons almost dismantled the last stronghold of Wo Luen Shing in Yau Tsim Mong, Jordan, and sent Lok back to the countryside. But who knew that after he got into trouble, Lok regained his footing in Wo Luen Shing.
The once-thriving He Yi triad, which nearly became a top-tier organization, is now barely even a second-rate one. Many people privately laugh at the He Yi's leader, calling him stupid and incompetent!
Seeing that Cao Tai seemed interested in the long-haired man, Da Sha quietly introduced the man's identity and gave him a brief history of the martial arts world.
Having watched "Kowloon Ice House" in his previous life, Cao Tai knew the name of the Nine-Dragon Man Nuoyan, but the entire film consisted of flashbacks and childish infighting within the triad.
Unexpectedly, after appearing in multiple films and television series, Nine-Dragon has become so famous, and judging from the description, his abilities are actually quite good.
But now he has actually returned to his former gang, Tuodi, where he had retired. His former rival, the prince, was from this area. The boss who sent him to prison is still the leader of the Heyi Gang. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of people in this area who know him. It's a truly mysterious retirement.
