Cheryl did not dwell on Li Xiaqing's subconscious question, but said: "Miss Li, someone told me that 'the foundation of women's independence is personal independence, and the premise of personal independence is economic independence'.

Some women are unwilling to take care of their husbands and children, and they are independent in their weddings, pursuing independence, and publicly announcing their divorce in newspapers to declare the equality of women and men.

Li Xiaqing's face changed slightly and she felt angry. The foreign woman in front of her pointed at the monk and called him a bald monk.

"Some women take to the skies with an attitude of female independence and become female pilots. They seem to be role models for other women to emulate. However, they may not be aware that the prerequisite for becoming a female pilot is to have a wealthy father and a well-off husband. Only if you are born into a good family and marry well, can you be qualified to talk about female independence."

Li Xiaqing felt a surge of blood rushing to her forehead, her cheeks flushed slightly, her lower lip rolled into her mouth and she bit it lightly with her teeth, the corners of her mouth trembled slightly with anger. She tried hard to control her emotions and sort out the expression on her face, and she succeeded. Only the rise and fall of her chest betrayed her true feelings without hesitation.

"Ms. Brown was sharp and direct in her words."

Cheryl asked the waiter to bring an empty wine glass, picked up the bottle and poured a glass of wine for Li Xiaqing, and brought the wine to Li Xiaqing, chuckled and said: "Before coming to Hong Kong, I worked as a textile worker through chimneys, and the most respectable job I had was as a waitress in a restaurant that was neither good nor bad.

At that time, I looked forward to getting off work every night. The chef would reheat the leftovers from the guests and make a big meal. I would eat a lot and occasionally drink the leftover wine from the guests. "

Li Xiaqing was attracted by Cheryl's topic, put aside her anger and listened attentively.

"One day, someone told me, 'Come with me to Hong Kong, I will give you a better platform.' At that time, I didn't understand what a platform was, I just knew the salary was good, so I came to Hong Kong.

Then, that person told me, 'If you want to stay on the platform, you need to work ten times harder than others.'"

Cheryl spread her hands and said, "I have been working to earn money during holidays since I was six years old. I have always worked very hard and never slacked off, but I don't know the taste of cakes and chocolates. I am full of longing for a better life, so I am not afraid of hard work."

Cheryl picked up the glass and shook it gently. "Now, I have a good income, earned through ability and loyalty. I have become an independent woman with financial independence, but there will be no newspaper reports that I am an excellent woman or an independent woman. This kind of treatment only belongs to 'independent women' like you, Miss Li.

You have topicality and can boost newspaper sales, which is one of the reasons why I invited you to join ITS."

"What are the other reasons?"

"Professional ability and the fact that you are Mr. Li Yingsheng's daughter."

Li Xiaqing thought for a moment and said, "I need to think about it."

"Miss. Li, you can not only join ITS, but also invest in it." Cheryl took a document from her bag and handed it to Li Xiaqing, "ITS's plan, you can take it back and read it slowly."

Shek Kip Mei.

Fung Wah Hotel, a small restaurant where most of its customers are gamblers, is located on a relatively flat slope in Shek Kip Mei.

Lu Yansu sat at a table, with her driver and bodyguard Wei Qiqian standing behind her.

Sitting opposite her was Mingjue, the president of Yuelu, a branch of Yuedong Society.

The Yuedong Gang, more correctly known as the Yuedong Martial Arts Society, abbreviated as the Yuedong Society or commonly known as the Chenggou because of the hook in the word Yue.

The Yuedong Society was founded by former members of He Shengyi on the eve of the Anti-Japanese War. After the fall of Hong Kong, most of the members went to Guangzhou, and the Yuedong Society existed in name only.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, some members came together to form the Yuedong Martial Arts Society. Later, they operated under the name of "Xingqun Sports Association" and set up headquarters in Hong Kong and Macau. In Hong Kong, they developed into a huge organization with 27 branches, including Yuedong Villa, Fa Fa Tang, Yue Lu, etc.

Ming Jue was one of the first few members of the Yuet Tung Martial Arts Society. He brought two or three people from Guangzhou to Sham Shui Po to build up the society and founded Yue Lu, which became the largest social group in Shek Kip Mei.

Mingjue has always wanted to lead Yuelu to break out of Shek Kip Mei, but the streets surrounding Shek Kip Mei are the territory of 14K. After several attempts, they have failed. Perhaps one day 14K will break into Shek Kip Mei to eliminate future troubles.

Lu Yansu does not think that the Yuedong Society is a match for the 14K, which is on the rise. The two forces have already become enemies, and sooner or later there will be a shocking war. After the battle, it is not certain that the Yuedong Society will disappear.

Because of this understanding, when she needed a temporary chamber pot, she turned her attention to Yuedong Society.

Lu Yansu had changed her outfit. It was no longer the same outfit she wore in the morning. She was wearing a black sleeveless tight dress inside and a black fur coat outside. She also had black gloves that were as long as her elbows on her hands.

She took out a brown paper bag from her briefcase, placed it on the table, and pushed it in Mingjue's direction. "Mr. Mingjue, I want to ask you for a favor."

Mingjue glanced at the brown paper bag and estimated that there were about 10,000 yuan in it. He opened the bag and took a look inside to confirm his judgment. Then he glanced at Lu Yansu and felt very unhappy.

The Chaozhou and Hakka people are well-known for favoring boys over girls. It is not uncommon for girls to be thrown into a urine bucket and drowned, or to be suffocated to death by plugging their nostrils or mouths with feces. Mingjue is a combination of Chaozhou and Hakka. He is very traditional in nature and is very averse to having equal conversations with women, let alone being shorter than them.

However, people travel thousands of miles to eat shit just for money. Nothing is bigger than money. A real man can bend and stretch. He must have the ruthlessness to suffocate a little girl, and the piety to kowtow to Lady Linshui Chen Jinggu. A woman is a financial sponsor, and her power is boundless.

Holding the heavy banknotes in his hand, Mingjue suppressed his displeasure with great willpower and said with a smile, "Miss Lu, what do you want to do?"

Lu Yansu took out a red vintage Du Maurier flat cigarette case from her bag, opened it and took out two cigarettes with spotted fluorescent short filters, handed one to Mingjue, and lit one herself.

He took a light breath and exhaled two streams of white mist from his nostrils. "It's not difficult to do. Someone will tell Mr. Mingjue later. My business has encountered some troubles recently and I need help to deal with some things. After I deal with the first thing, if Mr. Mingjue thinks that my reward is fair, we can keep doing this business for a long time."

Mingjue felt suspicious. The person was sitting right opposite him, but he didn't tell him directly what he wanted to do, but asked others to tell him. What was he up to?

How could he understand Lu Yansu's considerations? Lu Yansu had no choice but to come in person to talk. Zhongfeng Company did not have anyone who was influential enough and worthy of absolute trust. In order to avoid being proven guilty, she wore gloves so as not to leave fingerprints on the brown paper bag and asked others to pass the message on. This gave her room for maneuver and ensured that she would not be convicted even if she was involved in the lawsuit.

Mingjue couldn't guess, so he could only say, "Miss Lu, please rest assured, my brother always does things cleanly and efficiently."

"I hope so." Lu Yansu stood up and said, "Mr. Mingjue, I'll take my leave first. I'll treat you to a drink next time."

Three minutes later, Lu Yansu and the other person left Shek Kip Mei and stopped in front of the car.

Lu Yansu looked back at the earthen slope covered with huts, trying to remember if she had made any mistakes. After making sure there were no problems, she got into the car.

As the car drove out, she said to Wei Qiqian, "After you send me back to the office, go check if there are any problems with the boxes of ethylene and rotten fruit. Remember to wear a mask and don't open the bottles, or you'll get poisoned."

"clear."

Ethylene is a plant hormone that many fruits release during the ripening process, accelerating their own ripening and decay. Placing these fruits together with other fruits will accelerate the ripening and decay of other fruits.

Since those Dongguan guys at the fruit stall dared to overturn the stall of Gantian Fruit Shop, Lu Yansu dared to destroy their stock and let them experience the power of knowledge.

Lu Yansu lit a new cigarette, looked out the window, and thought about his own safety.

Gantian Fruit Shop and the Dongguan guys at the fruit market are already at loggerheads with each other, and they have made it clear that if something happens at the fruit market, the blame will be directed directly at Gantian Fruit Shop and her, Lu Yansu, so she has to be careful.

……

Back to Singapore a few days ago, Xian Yaowen took the briefcase that Cai Jinman took down from upstairs and kissed her on the cheek.

"If the night ends early, let's go see a movie."

"Yeah." Cai Jinman nodded slightly.

"I'm going out." (End of this chapter)
