Chapter 32 - Making Money While Standing

The visitor was a familiar stranger.

He looked exactly like the Heavenly King Andy Lau, handsome and dashing, with a gentle and refined air. It was Detective Lui Lo (Flower Street).

The fact that someone had killed Fatty Chiu and a large group of gangsters in Kowloon Walled City by himself had already caused a huge uproar in Kowloon.

When things got this big, someone naturally had to come and ask questions.

The British didn't want to get involved, and since Lui Lo had offended someone last night, he was sent here as a vanguard.

To be honest, Lui Lo wasn't confident.

The other party was a ruthless character who had killed more than sixty people overnight. If the negotiation didn't go well today, he might not be able to leave.

Following Lui Lo was Piggy Oil, who had a fat head and big ears, looking very prosperous.

Both men were wearing bulletproof vests and carrying pistols loaded with good bullets, and a team of people was ambushed outside.

Once they heard gunfire, these people would rush into the room to save them.

Lui Lo took a deep breath, glancing back at the police team, which was about ten meters away from the villa. He was just about to knock on the door when Ngo Siu Ho opened it.

Seeing the police badge on the other's body, Ngo Siu Ho asked, "What's the matter, officers?"

This was the first time Ngo Siu Ho and Lui Lo had met. Ngo Siu Ho seemed very composed, while Lui Lo was a little nervous.

"I am Detective Lui Lo (Flower Street), and this is Piggy Oil. We're here to visit Brother Qing. A small token of our respect."

As Lui Lo spoke, he took out a gift box and handed it to Ngo Siu Ho.

"Ah Ho, let Detective Lui in."

Han Shaoqing's voice came from inside, and Ngo Siu Ho waved his hand, "Come in."

Lui Lo was stunned. He'd thought Ngo Siu Ho was the rumored "Brother Qing."

There was nothing he could do. This era's streets didn't have cameras, and even cameras themselves were rare. There were no photos of Han Shaoqing to reference, only a rough description gleaned from small-time thugs.

Although Lui Lo had discovered Han Shaoqing's residence, he couldn't confirm who Han Shaoqing was.

Entering the room with Piggy Oil, Lui Lo saw Han Shaoqing sitting in the hall, drinking tea.

Han Shaoqing also saw Lui Lo and Piggy Oil, "Please, sit down. Detective Lui is truly resourceful. I just moved in, and you're already here."

Lui Lo put down the gifts and smiled, "Not at all. I'm here today to visit Brother Qing, nothing more."

Han Shaoqing heard this and smiled, "With Fatty Chiu dead, Yan Tong has lost a money-making boy. You think it'll just end there?"

The Yan Tong he mentioned was Lui Lo's superior.

In Hong Kong, the collusion between the police and the underworld was the norm. The police took bribes from the triads, offering them certain conveniences and sharing the wealth.

Fatty Chiu's backer was Yan Tong.

Han Shaoqing made a move in Kowloon Walled City yesterday. Normally, the police wouldn't intervene, but this time, with Fatty Chiu dead and dozens injured, it was already a major case.

In fact, Han Shaoqing was prepared to be hunted down by both the black and white forces.

No, he should be waiting for these people to walk right into his trap.

He hadn't expected it to be Lui Lo who came.

As for the people Lui Lo had arranged outside, they naturally couldn't escape Han Shaoqing's notice.

A squad of police didn't faze him. With Han Shaoqing's current strength, unless they used a Nuclear Weapon, even deploying an army would be useless.

Piggy Oil, seeing Dai Wai, Sai Wai, and the others step out, thought Han Shaoqing was about to make a move. He quickly said, "Our Lui Lo isn't on the same side as Yan Tong."

"I know that. He even wanted to pull out his gun and shoot Yan Tong's wife, right, Lui Lo?"

Han Shaoqing's casual remark caused Lui Lo and Piggy Oil's expressions to change.

Because those words were spoken privately between the two of them last night, after they'd been humiliated at Yan Tong's birthday banquet. No outsider should have known.

Yet, Han Shaoqing could say it so easily. If he hadn't known Piggy Oil for decades, Lui Lo would have suspected him of being a traitor.

Piggy Oil, fearing Lui Lo's misunderstanding, asked, "Brother Qing, where did you hear this?"

"Does it matter?"

Han Shaoqing smiled and looked at Lui Lo. "Lui Lo, you're not bad. Did you get Sir Chow's daughter?"

Lui Lo was shocked, feeling that the person in front of him was terrifying. It was as if he had no secrets in front of him.

He even suspected whether the other party had hired private detectives to follow him.

Han Shaoqing went straight to the point. "I didn't send anyone to follow you. I just know a few tricks. Sir Chow's boat is too small. Are you interested in working with me?"

"I don't know what Brother Qing has in mind. If this younger brother can help, I won't say no."

Lui Lo was a smart man, or else he wouldn't have become a five hundred million dollar Detective in the future.

Although he didn't know Han Shaoqing's purpose, Lui Lo could be sure of one thing: the other party had a big appetite and would definitely make a big move.

If he could profit from it, Lui Lo wouldn't mind being a tool for once.

Having watched Chasing the Dragon, Han Shaoqing naturally understood what kind of person Lui Lo was.

The man was definitely not a good person. He was an opportunist, putting his own interests first, good at enduring, taking bribes, and acting as a protector. He was definitely a corrupt cop.

Han Shaoqing didn't like such a person, but he didn't really reject him either.

In this turbulent era, if you wanted to succeed, you had to be like Lui Lo, seizing every opportunity you could to climb up.

Reality wasn't kind to good people. For example, in the movie, the police officer Ah Zheng was upright and never took bribes. He followed the law, but what was the final result?

He had no hope of promotion, was ostracized everywhere, and his family was so poor they couldn't even make ends meet. He didn't have money to pay for his wife and children's illnesses!

It wasn't that good people were bad, nor was society bad. It was those people who had already climbed to the upper circles, they were rotten to the core.

If you couldn't integrate into that circle, you would be ostracized and regarded as an outsider.

Unless you have the power to flip the table and reshuffle everything, you can only go with the flow, or be swallowed by it!

Han Shaoqing didn't want to go with the flow, but he needed someone on the inside to work for him.

In the corrupt Hong Kong government, Lui Lo might have many unsavory aspects, but comparatively speaking, he still had some conscience.

At least, that's how Lui Lo was in the movies!

If Lui Lo was willing to join him, Han Shaoqing would naturally help him rise through the ranks.

Don't look at Han Shaoqing as powerless now, but he has money and strength, and he can still earn money even standing still.

The ability to use money can solve many problems. If there's trouble that money can't solve, then Han Shaoqing wouldn't mind solving the people who create the trouble.

The methods might be a bit rough, but in this environment, it could only be this way.

Heart and hand, both must be as black!

While Lui Lo was considering, Han Shaoqing noticed another group of people arriving.

Several luxury cars stopped in front of the villa, and Ngo Siu Ho went to open the door.

The newcomers were members of the Chaozhou Gang, led by Third Master Yeung.

Yeung Wing Kau was considered an elder of the Chaozhou Gang, with some prestige in the underworld, and he was once a ruthless man who could fight and kill.

Now that he was old, his viciousness had subsided somewhat, but if anyone dared to underestimate him, they wouldn't know how they died.
