History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 521

Chapter 521

Tsuen Wan, Lu family.

The four major surnamed talkers gathered together, with a look of decline on their faces. The confrontation between the family forces and the Department of Public Works failed miserably.

Not only has the reputation not been established, but the authority accumulated in the past has been exhausted. In the future, the voice of the clan system will plummet.The influence of the grandfathers and talkers in each village will also decline rapidly, and I am afraid that not many of the younger generation will recognize them.

Each surname clan is either purely corporate or evolved into a social organization.

"Cough cough."

Lu Hantao put down the tea cup, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Each surname is responsible for fishing out its own people. First fish out the arrested members of the same clan. Otherwise, no one in the village will believe what the clan says."

"Mr. Lu, everyone knows this. You may not be able to arrest people without the approval of the police force." Mok Wenwei sighed: "The police force has arrested more than 70 people in one day in the name of illegal assembly. It seems that they are not giving up." thoughts."

"Do not worry."

Lu Hantao saw the situation very clearly: "The fact that the police did not personally suppress them proves that they are still trying to save face for the New Territories. Now that they are being arrested, as long as they bring enough money to apply for bail, there is no reason not to release them. Participating in illegal gatherings is also a minor offense." Even if they are guilty, it will take several months for a collective prosecution."

In the past few months, there has been a lot of room for maneuver.

If they had not held the titles of New Territories Justice of the Peace and Councilor, they could not have been arrested without reporting the matter, and I am afraid they would have been arrested for leading an illegal assembly.

The four major surnamed speakers may have lost their minds before, or some were arrogant, or some were unwilling to give up their interests, but after being taught by others with an iron fist, they knew that the New Territories cannot protect their own interests without the support of the police force. .

The New Territories without the police force is nothing!

"Mr. Lu, you are young and capable, please tell me what to do next." Situ Hua pushed up his glasses, sat on an imperial chair, and stared at Lu Hantao who was above him.

Lu Hantao was the younger among the four, and he was the first to lead the family to transform into a company.

Although the reputation is not that good, it does have a certain appeal.

Not only is the Lu family the most powerful and populous, but other clans are also learning from the Lu family and embarking on corporate transformation together.

Lu Hantao did not hesitate and said cheerfully: "I will go to see Mr. He and ask Mr. He to help clear the relationship with the Public Works Department. However, there will definitely be some price to pay for asking someone to do the work. Just be prepared."

"Let's make a list of this year's Ding Quan first, make statistics and send them up together, so no one can think of hiding them secretly."

He glanced around the three of them: "This is the only value left in the New Territory."

Wang Zhenbang nodded: "I understand."

"That's the only way." Mo Wenwei shook his head and sighed.

Situ Hua nodded: "Okay."

Lu Hantao said: "In the evening, I plan to go to see Mr. He. Let's go back to the village to take care of the affairs first. I won't keep you for dinner."

Situ Hua, Wang Zhenbang, and Mo Wenwei all stood up and left, each getting into a car.With the deepening of the development of the New Territories, the people of the clan are also changing their guns and driving imported cars.When Situ Hua got into the back seat, the elder in the family who was driving the car in front of him looked in the rearview mirror and noticed that his father's face looked wrong, so he asked, "Dad, are you unhappy in the conversation?"

"Why don't you have fun talking about surrendering? Just kneel on the ground and beg for food from the boss."

Situ Hua looked out the window with a very sarcastic tone.

Situ Aimin looked dazed and said a little surprised: "Isn't the New Territory fighting with ghosts? How can I listen to you?"

"Ghost?"

"Ah!"

"Gui Lao is nothing now! Hong Kong Island can cover the sky with one hand, and the only one that controls the New Territories is the Ho family. The Ho family used the purchased rights to build a logistics park and made a lot of money from Tsuen Wan Pier. Those lands are all The logistics companies and warehouses that are robbing men from the New Territories are supposed to be the property of people from the New Territories." Szeto Wa said angrily: "He was born late and could not get involved in the development of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, but he has been interfering in the development of the New Territories. .”

"His previous support for the New Territories villagers' struggle was nothing more than wanting to use the hands of the New Territories villagers to steal food from the ghost man's pot. Look at the many factories in the New Territories, which one belongs to the New Territories people? The biggest factories in the New Territories , which one is not named He?" In the early stages of the development of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, Gui Lao used foreign banks to enclose land on a large scale. What he did was very similar to He Dingxian's acquisition of Ding Quan.But the positions and behaviors between the two are actually completely different, such as foreign companies encircling land, building sweatshops, and taking advantage of the Chinese demographic dividend.

The goal is to suck the blood of Hong Kong Island and exploit the Chinese people.

When Ho Ting-hsien secured land in the New Territories, he took over the downstream industries of the docks. At a time when Chinese capital was still unable to capture the dock industry, he created many high-paying jobs for the Chinese in Hong Kong Island.For example, freight drivers, crane drivers, maintenance workers, and even the most basic loaders and unloaders are paid more than those waiting at the dock. At least they don't have to be raked in money by associations.

It can be said that with the establishment of the first logistics park by Hong Kong Island Chinese capital, the coolies at the Hong Kong Island wharf are gradually withdrawing from the market and gradually upgraded to freight drivers, stevedores, etc.

The construction of electronics factories, auto repair shops, etc., not to mention how many jobs have been created in the New Territories, but the industrial chain alone has created many self-employed individuals and the development of distribution companies.The villagers in the New Territories and the Chinese in Hong Kong are really benefiting. It is nothing more than getting rid of the clan system and not sharing the profits for the interests of those fat worms.

Fat worms are born with big appetites, seeing more and more oil and water in the house but can't eat, naturally they won't let it go.It's a pity that the villagers are simple and honest, and they know who is good to the New Territories.Under the circumstances that the police force does not attack the New Territories extensively, trying to use the clan system to mobilize the villagers to resist Chinese capital is simply blocking the way.

Situ Hua's head was controlled by his butt, and he spoke plausibly, thinking that what he said made sense.Situ Aimin also showed a look of sudden realization and said angrily: "He Ting-hsien is the biggest corrupt official in Hong Kong Island! Fortunately, he often goes on TV to talk about fighting corruption. The entire New Territories is almost completely corrupted by him."

"Zhuang Zhou once said that those who steal hooks will be punished, and those who steal the country will be martyred."

"He Dingxian is a thief who steals the country. According to his approach, no matter who is in power on Hong Kong Island, he cannot do without the support of his faction. As long as it is not profitable to purify him, no one will ever purify him."

Situ Hua is a smart man. He not only studied abroad when he was young, but also participated in political activities, and he sees some things very clearly.He deliberately gave the eldest son a few words, but the eldest son exclaimed: "Isn't He going to become the king of Hong Kong Island?"

"Hong Kong Island can't afford a king. Unless it connects the province together, it's not much of a problem, but he will definitely be a very important leader in the future." Situ Hua shook his head and said: "Of course, he can also connect Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, then Even if he is a local king, with his current age and power, there is no possibility. However, Hong Kong Island's economy and window effect alone are destined to have an extraordinary status. With one hand holding silver and the other a pistol, it is indeed different. .”

As for Nanyang, although the He family is already very influential, Nanyang has become independent. It is considered a non-staff influence and has no effect on the domestic political circle.And the possibility of developing in the province is not great. The best choice is to connect Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

Situ Hua could see that the Ho family was flirting with the mainland and their relationship was getting closer and closer. He was very likely to come forward to promote the return of Hong Kong Island in the future.As long as you make an appeal in the business community, the police community, and civil society groups, the impact will be huge.

By then, once Hong Kong Island successfully returns, Ho will be alone.If we can participate in Haojiang and promote Taiwan again, it is no exaggeration to call us the King of Special Administrative Region!

After hearing this, Situ Aimin felt a lot of psychological pressure, and asked aloud: "Old Dou, what should we do then? Do you want to work for the surname He?"

"If I could work for him for the rest of my life, that would be great." Situ Hua was very self-aware: "Those who can work for the He family for the rest of their lives are either rich or powerful. People named He value the new world, but not those in the new world. Someone."

"We have no chance of working for the Ho family, because within ten years there will be no family in the New Territories."

Situ Aimin was shocked when he heard this: "Impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible. It is not the bullet that can kill the clan, but the new society." Situ Hua sighed: "The New Territories will always rely on farming, and the clan will always exist. Once the New Territories are urbanized, the clan will disappear in a blink of an eye."

"In the past ten years, if we don't make good use of our last influence, the so-called eldest son of the Situ family will have to drive a truck and collect wages."

In other words, the only thing that can kill the privileged class is a new privileged class. Fortunately, every change of the privileged class is an improvement in the social system.Assuming that there is no progress in the social system, then all reforms and massacres are nothing more than internal changes of the privileged class.

Thorough class changes only exist in every system change in history, ranging from a country to a port.

Situ Aimin was obviously shocked by these words, but Situ Hua said: "Drive to Central, I want to meet Mr. Qian Shinian."

Qian Shinian is a Chinese member of the "Urban Council" and has always been a supporter of the ghost guy.Just because Municipal Council members are not as authoritative as legislators, every Municipal Council member is actually just a faggot.As a justice of the peace and a legislator in the New Territories, it was normal for Szeto to get to know some political figures.

But perhaps because of his overseas study background, he was naturally not averse to the Chinese congressmen supported by ghosts.This lack of resentment was quickly noticed, and Gui Lao was secretly trying to win over him.Previously, Szeto Hua had pinned his hopes on Lu Hantao to carry the banner of the New Territories, but this incident completely disappointed Lu Hantao, and he planned to find another owner to realize the family's influence.

Yes, in fact, for the big surnames in the New Territories, the influence of the clan continues to decline, and how to realize it first is a science.The current joint riots between clans in the New Territories can be defined as an attempt to raise the market price of "power" in preparation for the next step of realization.

In addition to the Chinese investors represented by He Dingxian, the buyers also had Gui Lao represented by the Hong Kong government.Due to the different attitudes, positions, and strengths of both parties, the bids will naturally be high or low.But no matter how high Gui Lao bids, most people still dare not sell due to the heavy hidden burden.For He Dingxian, this is basically an exclusive business, but once someone dares to take the risk and sell his power to the ghost guy, the ghost guy will definitely be willing to pay a high price and buy the bones with thousands of gold.

Historically, Szeto Wa was one of the representative figures who brought disaster to Hong Kong, and was the most influential political figure supported by the Chinese people.Being able to find another way between the two options of "corporation" and "corporation" of the family, and choosing to "politicize" the family is also very smart, but it is a pity that it is used in the wrong place.
