Hong Kong General: Undercover and Liansheng, from 49 to leader

Chapter 294 [294] Philanthropist Lu Yaowen changes the New Territories

After Johnny finished talking to Lu Yaowen, he waited for several hours before coming to Field to "act".

"Sir, I received a tip that a group of terrorists affiliated with the Northern Ireland Independence Forces are lurking in the St. Yuqiang International School. I am willing to lead an undercover team to go into the school to find out the truth."

Looking at Johnny who was eager to get credit, Field nodded slightly: "Okay, Superintendent Johnny, then this matter will be handed over to you. If there is any situation, report to me immediately."

Field was not surprised at Johnny's ambition. This guy has always wanted to improve himself. Now he has a father-in-law who wants his son-in-law to be successful, which makes him even more motivated.

"Thank you, sir. I won't let you down."

Johnny lowered his posture very much, said this, then turned and left.

Only after Johnny left did Field pick up the phone in front of him and dial a number.

"Mr. Moore, Johnny and I just met and he told me...I have asked him to be in charge of the exploration mission."

At this point, Field hesitated: "Should we continue to investigate his father-in-law?"

"Field, agents cannot have emotions when doing things. Besides, if Johnny's father-in-law is really innocent, I believe he will understand us."

Moore's voice came from the receiver.

"clear."

Field's eyes, which were originally a little hesitant, became extremely firm after hearing what Moore said.

……

That night, Henry, as usual, ate, drank, and chatted with foreign officials from the British Hong Kong government and wealthy foreign businessmen in Hong Kong Island in the banquet hall of the Victoria Hotel. He did not leave the hotel until ten o'clock in the evening and left in a Bentley.

When the Bentley sedan was driving to Stubbs Road in Wan Chai, a car suddenly overtook the Bentley sedan and then stopped in front of the Bentley sedan, while another car hit the back of the Bentley sedan.

Two cars forced the Bentley car Henry was riding in to stop, and then several foreigners got out of the car immediately. They first blew up the windows of the Bentley car, then opened the door, dragged Henry out of the car, and put him into their car. The movements were smooth and the whole process took only a dozen seconds.

After Henry was taken into a car by this group of foreigners, he was immediately put on a black hood.

"who are you?"

As Henry asked the question, he tried to regulate his breathing and keep himself calm.

When Xu Zhengyang was "protecting" him before, he had already told him very clearly that the people from the Eagle Country's MI6 would definitely take action against him, but there was no need to worry too much, because Lu Yaowen had already arranged an identity for him that would keep him absolutely safe.

As long as he can withstand the pressure from MI6, he will still be Viscount Henry. If he can't, then everything he has now will come to nothing.

Henry no longer wanted to be the rotten man who was in danger every day. He wanted to continue to be Viscount Henry. He had made up his mind that no matter what means MI6 used, he would persevere.

"..."

Henry's question received no response from anyone. Ten minutes later, the car he was riding in stopped and he was taken out of the car. After walking for a few minutes, Henry was pushed violently.

then.

With a 'bang', he heard the sound of the iron door closing.

Without a moment's hesitation, Henry took off the hood on his head, and then he found himself in darkness. He groped around carefully and confirmed that he was locked in a small dark room.

"Fuck, do you know who I am? I am the Viscount of Eagle Country. If anything happens to me, no matter who you are, you will die miserably!"

In order to make it seem more realistic, Henry started to curse wildly.

I don’t know how long he cursed, but he sat down on the ground only after he cursed until his mouth was dry and his tongue was parched.

In the following time, Henry felt what it was like torment.

No one spoke and no one could see anything, which was actually not a big deal. What frightened Henry the most was that he lost the concept of time.

At first, he counted in his head, but soon he realized that was no use.

If Xu Zhengyang had not given him a heads-up in advance, Henry felt that he was about to collapse.

Even so, the following time was still extremely difficult.

Henry tried to force himself to sleep, but it was very difficult to fall asleep in the extremely stressful environment. He didn't know how long it had passed before Henry fell into a drowsy sleep.

then.

'哐哐哐~'

The sound of violent knocking on the iron door woke Henry, who had just fallen asleep.

Then, there was another round of painful torture.

After repeating this several times, Henry felt that he was on the verge of collapse. He was about to collapse: "Please, don't torture me anymore, I can give you whatever you want!"

He begged for mercy for more than ten minutes before a voice came from outside the iron gate: "Henry, we have investigated your background clearly. You and Lu Yaowen cooperated well."

'Dong~'

Hearing this, Henry's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead, but soon, he said, "Lu Yaowen? I've heard of this guy's name, but I don't know him."

"hehe."

After hearing Henry's answer, Field outside the door sneered and immediately turned away.

"Detain him for another twelve hours, then ask him why he came to Hong Kong Island, and then ask him about his relationship with Lu Yaowen."

Field warned.

"clear."

The white officer from MI6 immediately nodded in response.

A few minutes later, Field walked out of a secret base of the Political Department, looked at the rising sun, and whispered to himself, "After spending a day in a small dark room, an ordinary person would definitely collapse. Then it will depend on whether your collapse is real or fake."

Field used the simplest and most direct method, just like Moore, and became an agent without feelings.

……

On the other hand, after learning that Henry was kidnapped, Lu Yaowen immediately contacted Johnny through Tong En.

"Tianning, the MI6 has taken Henry away. Be prepared. If you find something wrong, run away!"

Lu Yaowen’s first words were to let Johnny run away.

"Brother Wen, I understand."

On the other end of the phone, Johnny's eyes flickered slightly, and he slowly said this sentence.

"I have already prepared enough backers for Henry in Eagle Country. The people from MI6 will not let him 'disappear' for a long time. It will be at most two days."

"You need to pay special attention these two days."

After giving Johnny another warning, Lu Yaowen hung up the phone.

Then, Lu Yaowen asked Henry's "driver" and "secretary" to sign up, and at the same time contacted senior officials of the Hong Kong British government and asked them to put pressure on the police force. The trick was done in full.

The next day, in the morning.

Lu Yaowen arrived at Lujia Village in Yuen Long as if nothing had happened.

"Mr. Lu, I will not introduce you to the aboriginal village chiefs in North District and Yuen Long District. I will introduce you to several aboriginal village chiefs in Tai Po, Sai Kung, Tuen Mun, Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing."

Lu Hantao introduced six village chiefs of the indigenous villages to Lu Yaowen.

"Fellow village heads, you should all be very clear about the purpose of my calling you all to meet. I hope that this time you can run for the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk seat."

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, the expressions of the dozen or so aboriginal village chiefs present were extremely calm. It was obvious that Lu Hantao had already informed them in advance.

"I am not worried about the seats in Yuen Long, North District and Tuen Mun. I am worried about the seats in Tsuen Wan, Kwai Tsing and Sai Kung."

Unlike Yuen Long and North District, Kwai Tsing, Tsuen Wan and Sai Kung have been developed on a large scale because they are relatively close to Kowloon, and the proportion of indigenous people is not high.

At this point, Lu Yaowen paused for a moment, then continued, "I have prepared a campaign team for you. They will help you prepare your looks, clothing, and speeches."

"In addition, TVB and Asia Television will help you promote. The two village heads of Kwai Tsing and Tsuen Wan, your campaign slogan is very simple. Once you are elected, you will invite Shimao Real Estate to move into Kwai Tsing and Tsuen Wan to build at least 5,000 low-rent housing units."

"Two village heads in Saigon, your campaign slogans include inviting Shimao Real Estate to settle in Saigon and build at least 3,000 low-rent housing units, and also integrating the seafood market, raising the price of seafood, and allowing Saigon fishermen to make more money."

Before this, Hong Kong Island had never had a truly democratic election. All the candidates were chosen by the foreigners, and then it was just a show when the day came.

In this case, Lu Yaowen's use of the "election method" from decades later in the present is definitely a dimensionality reduction attack.

"In addition, I will set up a charity organization in the next few days to build charity primary schools in various areas of Hong Kong Island. I will only charge students for textbooks. If their families are really in financial difficulty, not only will the textbooks be waived, but the school will also provide them with free lunch."

"You can promise the voters that once you are elected, you will immediately invite me to build a charity primary school in the local area."

Lu Yaowen continued.

The construction of Charity Primary School and Charity Middle School is also an important part of Luk Yao-wen's plan to develop the Northern New Territories. It will not only enhance Luk Yao-wen's reputation, but also cultivate qualified labor and qualified talents for the future development of the New Territories.

The most crucial thing is that after the establishment of Charity Primary School and Charity Middle School, they will be able to enroll most of the students in the New Territories. When these students graduate, Lu Yaowen's position in the New Territories will be unshakable.

In addition, Lu Yaowen can also select real talents from the students and provide them with professional training, such as in the fields of chips, design, and mechanics, turning the New Territories into his talent pool.

After hearing what Lu Yaowen said, the dozen or so village heads present were all stunned, with looks of surprise on their faces.

Ten seconds later, Lu Hantao came to his senses and spoke cautiously: "Mr. Lu, are you really going to run a charity elementary school and only charge students for textbooks?"

The nine districts in the New Territories have a combined population of over one million, including at least 100,000 primary school students. If tuition fees for these 100,000 students are waived and only textbook fees are charged, how much money will it cost each year?
"Brother Han Tao, the New Territories are not short of farmers who work hard in the fields, but they are short of knowledgeable people. If we want to make the New Territories the next Hong Kong Island or the next Kowloon, we must focus on education."

"I have staked all my chips on developing the New Territories. The better the New Territories develop, the higher my returns will be. I am not only helping the people of the New Territories, but also myself."

Lu Yaowen stated his purpose very frankly.

"Mr. Lu, no matter what your purpose is, as long as you really build a charity primary school, you will be the benefactor of our New Territories Aboriginals. No matter what you do in the future, as long as it does not harm our interests, we in Lujia Village will fully support you."

Lu Hantao said this sincerely, without any hypocrisy.

"Mr. Lu, it's the same in our Dengjia Village!"

After Lu Hantao finished speaking, more than a dozen indigenous village chiefs in the New Territories expressed their full support for Lu Yaowen.

At noon that day, Lu Yaowen once again held a press conference and announced that he would invest 2 billion Hong Kong dollars to establish the Hope Education Charity Foundation. Within three years, he would build at least 20 Hope Primary Schools in nine districts in the New Territories, which would be able to accommodate at least 10,000 students.

Hope Primary School never charges tuition fees, only textbook fees. For families with a monthly income of less than HK$500, even the textbook fees are waived, and the school also provides a free lunch.

In the first phase, Lu Yaowen will build three Hope Primary Schools in Yuen Long and North District. In the second phase, five more Hope Primary Schools will be built. As for which district they will be built in, the site selection is still under investigation.

As Lu Yaowen finished speaking, the reporters in the audience were shocked.

Over the years, Hong Kong has had numerous charities run by wealthy individuals, but most of them are fake, and many were even established just to bribe the Americans.

There are very few charities that really do practical things. The most famous one is the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals, but it can only serve a small number of people. A charity like Luk Yiu-man, who wants to build Hope Primary Schools throughout the New Territories to provide free education, cannot be said to be "unprecedented", but it can definitely be called "unprecedented".

"Mr. Lu, I am TVB reporter Qiu Luying. May I ask whether the courses taught in the Hope Primary School you just mentioned are subject to social supervision?"

Qiu Luying's words were very tactful, meaning that the school run by you, as the leader of the club, is not intended to cultivate younger talents for the club, right?
"Not only schools are subject to social supervision, but charitable foundations are also subject to social supervision. We publish our accounts to the public every month, and even one dollar will be recorded in the account, so that the donated money will never be wasted."

Lu Yaowen replied with a smile.

"Mr. Lu, I'm a reporter from Asia Television. I want to ask, why do you want to build a Hope Primary School in the New Territories?"

After hearing this question, Lu Yaowen's smile faded and he said solemnly: "The New Territories account for 70% of the area of Hong Kong Island and 35% of the population."

"Most of the fresh water, seafood, vegetables and food for Kowloon and Hong Kong Island are supplied by the New Territories, but the level of development of the New Territories is far behind that of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon."

"This is related to the long-term discriminatory policies of the Hong Kong British government against the New Territories. There are few primary and secondary schools in the New Territories, and the teaching quality is poor. I don't know what caused the Hong Kong British government to discriminate against the people of the New Territories so much."

"But I know that if the New Territories want to develop, they need talents. Where do talents come from? Education! I hope that the New Territories can become better, so I contribute my own little bit of strength. This is why I want to build a Hope Primary School in the New Territories."

Lu Yaowen said slowly.

'Papapapa~'

As Lu Yaowen finished his words, led by "somewhat", thunderous applause broke out at the scene.

Just as Lu Yaowen expected, this press conference caused a sensation in Hong Kong Island.

The education of future generations has always been the most important thing for Chinese people since ancient times. Regardless of whether Lu Yaowen has ulterior motives, his good deed has won praise from most people in Hong Kong Island.

Lei Yingdong, Bao Yuguang, Zhuang Shiping and others immediately responded to Lu Yaowen and donated money to the Hope Education Charity Foundation.

Governor's Residence.

"It seems that this guy Lu Yaowen is determined to win the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk election three days later. He spent 2 billion to build a Hope Primary School. It is obvious that he is trying to boost his reputation in the New Territories and win votes for those he supports."

Wei Yixin saw through Lu Yaowen's purpose at a glance.

"Mr. Governor, what do you mean?"

Zhuang Qichen, who was standing not far from Wei Yixin, asked after hearing Wei Yixin's words.

"Lu Yaowen can win people's hearts, and we can also win people's hearts."

After saying this, Wei Yixin picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Director Cheng, I'm Wei Yixin."

"Mr. Governor, what can I do for you?"

On the other end of the phone, Cheng Ansheng's face changed instantly after hearing Wei Yixin's call, and his tone was full of respect.

She had met with Wilson Wei in the morning and knew that she was about to become the first Chinese Chief Secretary in the history of Hong Kong Island.

"Director Cheng, did you watch the press conference that Lu Yaowen just held?"

Wei Yixin asked.

"Looked."

Cheng Ansheng immediately nodded in response.

"Director Cheng, Lu Yaowen's goal is very simple. He wants to take over the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk. Our goal is also very simple. We must stop Lu Yaowen at all costs."

"In the next few days, you should put down your work and contact those candidates in the New Territories who support us, and tell them that our British Hong Kong government will also increase investment in the New Territories, build more public housing estates, water conservancy measures and more schools."

“Let them play these cards and compete with Lu Yaowen’s people!”

Wei Yixin said slowly.

"Mr. Governor, I understand what you mean."

Cheng Ansheng immediately nodded in response.

"Director Cheng, during your next term, Lu Yaowen will definitely be your long-term enemy. You must be prepared to fight him in advance."

Wei Yixin continued to instruct.

"Mr. Governor, I know. Also, I think we can prepare some black material for Lu Yaowen's people?"

Cheng Ansheng immediately gave his suggestion.

"Director Cheng, I just said that this matter is left to you."

Wei Yixin neither agreed nor objected.

"Mr. Governor, I understand."

After discussing some details of the New Territories policy with Wei Yixin, Cheng Ansheng hung up the phone. Then, Cheng Ansheng pondered for a moment, picked up the receiver, and dialed a number.

"I'm Cheng Ansheng, help me make an appointment with Zhang Renlong."

She decided to meet the 'King of the New Territories' Zhang Renlong first, and start with him to open up the situation in the New Territories, and let Wei Yixin know that choosing her as the Chief Secretary was definitely the right decision.

……

At the same time, after Lu Yaowen held the press conference, he went to Macau without stopping. He needed He Xian's help in his plan to deal with MI6 and eliminate the Political Department.

"Brother Wen."

As soon as Lu Yaowen got off the boat, Gao Jin, who had been waiting at the dock, immediately came up to him and greeted him.

"Ah Jin, you've worked hard in Haojiang."

Lu Yaowen smiled and nodded to Gao Jin.

Under Gao Jin's management, the underworld in Macao has become an iron barrel, with only Lu Yaowen's voice remaining.

"Awen, get in the car."

At this time, Huang San, who was standing not far away, also shouted to Lu Yaowen with a smile.

"Third brother, why did you come to the dock to pick me up in person..."

"Don't be polite to me. You've been so popular in Hong Kong Island these past few months, but you didn't even come to Macau to play chess with me."

Huang San interrupted Lu Yaowen's polite words and laughed.

"Third brother, your skills give me a headache when playing chess with you, so just let me go."

Lu Yaowen replied with a smile.

"You mean, I'm a bad chess player?"

Huang San immediately became unhappy.

"Third brother, you said this yourself, I didn't say it."

Lu Yaowen shook his head and smiled.

"Good boy, let me tell you, I have been practicing chess hard for the past few months. Once you have finished talking to Brother Xian, we will start the game. Tonight I will show you what it means to be treated with new eyes after three days of absence!"

Huang San is 'full of fighting spirit'.

"no problem."

Lu Yaowen replied with a smile, then got into the Rolls-Royce.

Half an hour later, in a small Republican-era house.

"Mr. He, I'm sorry to bother you again."

Lu Yaowen greeted He Xian with a smile.

"Awen, you are good in everything, but you are too polite. Tell me, what do you want an old man like me to do for you?"

A smile appeared on He Xian's lips.

"Mr. He, I am going to eradicate the Political Department."

Hearing Lu Yaowen's words, He Xian's eyes moved, and he looked at Lu Yaowen steadily, motioning him to continue.

"You know, I won a cruise ship from that guy Nie Aotian, called the Fugui Maru, and I'm going to..."

Lu Yaowen slowly told his plan.

"Awen, what do you mean? Use the Fugui Maru as bait, and then..."

He Xian's expression changed slightly.

"Yes, Mr. He, the people in MI6 are not fools. To hook them, the bait must be big enough and real enough, so I need your help."

Lu Yaowen nodded in response.

"Awen, your plan is very risky, but if it can eliminate the Political Department, it is worth taking this risk. Let me know when you start the action, and I will let Huang San fully cooperate with you."

He Xian nodded slightly.

"Mr. He, I will be fully prepared and take control of the situation."

Lu Yaowen said with a smile.

"Awen, I believe you."

He Xian nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Mr. He."

The smile on Lu Yaowen's face became even wider.

With He Xian's help, this plan is already halfway to success.

"Awen, the Special Branch is one of the most important departments of the Hong Kong British government. What happened on the Fugui Maru alone is not enough for the Hong Kong British government to 'abandon' the Special Branch."

He Xian gave his opinion.

"The Fugui Maru is just a fuse, the real killer move is yet to come."

Lu Yaowen kept the question in suspense.

"Awen, Hong Kong Island is lucky to have you."

Looking at Lu Yaowen who was looking confident in front of him, He Xian sighed from the bottom of his heart.

After Lu Yaowen chatted with He Xian for more than ten minutes, he was pulled away by the "impatient" Huang San, who clamored to let Lu Yaowen know how powerful the chess king of Haojiang was.

He Xian looked at the backs of Huang San and Lu Yaowen as they left, smiled and shook his head, then picked up his phone and dialed a number.

"He Xin, I'm He Xian..."

After the call was connected, He Xian spoke slowly.

……

On the other side, Hong Kong Island, in a villa in Sham Shui Po.

"Director Cheng, I completely understand what you mean. Please rest assured that I will do my best in this New Territories Heung Yee Kuk election."

Zhang Renlong sent Cheng Ansheng out of his villa and made a promise to Cheng Ansheng with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Zhang, the Hong Kong British government has always been confident in you. It's just that candidates from other regions need more help from us."

Cheng An's business is meaningful.

"Director Cheng, if you are free tonight, I can gather all these candidates together and treat you to a meal together."

Zhang Renlong understood what he meant.

"I have something else to do tonight. Let's have lunch tomorrow at noon. I'll treat you guys."

Cheng Ansheng said slowly.

She planned to meet with Wei Yixin tonight to have a detailed discussion and make all preparations.

"Okay, Director Cheng, I will make sure to notify everyone of your invitation."

Zhang Renlong nodded and smiled, then sent Cheng Ansheng to the car and watched her leave.

"The woman finally left."

After Cheng Ansheng left, Zhang Renlong let out a long sigh, shook his head and smiled.

"Father, isn't she here to support you in your campaign for the chairmanship of the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk?"

Zhang Shengliang, who was standing next to Zhang Renlong, asked curiously.

Almost a year ago, he returned to Zhang Renlong's side to help with work, and with his outstanding abilities, he has become Zhang Renlong's right-hand man.

"With her support alone, I cannot become the chairman of the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk."

Zhang Renlong shook his head and smiled.

"Father, what do you mean?"

Zhang Shengliang's eyes trembled violently.

"Ah Liang, our business doesn't rely on foreigners. My previous cooperation with foreigners was just a temporary measure. They don't really care about the affairs of the New Territories anyway, so I don't have to pay any price to borrow their name."

"But things are different now. Lu Yaowen clearly wants to win over the hearts of the people in the New Territories. Even if I cooperate with the foreigners this time and successfully defeat Lu Yaowen, so what?"

"The foreigners will leave in a few years, but our Zhang family can't leave. Instead of cooperating with the foreigners and enjoying the glory for a few years, it is better to cooperate with Lu Yaowen."

Zhang Renlong said slowly.

"Father, Lu Yaowen will not let you be the chairman of the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk."

Zhang Shengliang said faintly.

"Why, are you still upset about Lu Yaowen swallowing up your father-in-law's Xinji?"

Zhang Renlong saw through his eldest son's little thoughts at a glance.

"..."

Zhang Shengliang agreed with his father's words.

"Xin Ji was in such a situation that even if it had not been taken over by Lu Yaowen, it would have become a puppet of the Eagles. After the Eagles left, it would still not have escaped the fate of extinction. Now that Lu Yaowen has taken over Xin Ji, several brothers of the Xu family have followed Lu Yaowen to start working and earn money, which can be considered a good ending."

Zhang Renlong said slowly.

“Father, I know, but I still feel a little uncomfortable when I think about working with Lawrence Lu.”

Zhang Shengliang shook his head and sighed.

"It's normal to feel uncomfortable, and I won't ask you to show up."

"Just now you said that Lu Yaowen would not let me be the chairman of the New Territories Heung Yee Kuk. You are right, but you forgot one thing. The New Territories pie was small before, but now Lu Yaowen wants to make it bigger."

“By then, even if you are just a councillor, the benefits you will get may not be less than those of the previous chairman.”

Zhang Renlong said with a smile.

"Father, since you have already made your decision, why do you still want to help Cheng Ansheng arrange dinner with other candidates tomorrow?"

Zhang Shengliang looked puzzled.

"Aliang, there is a saying that rare goods are valuable. If I want to cooperate with Lu Yaowen, I must sell myself for a good price. First of all, I have to let him see my value."

Zhang Renlong said softly.

"..."

Zhang Shengliang didn't say anything else, just nodded slightly.

……

That evening, Johnny, who had just completed the undercover mission at Sheng Yuqiang International School, was called by Field to a political department base.

"Sir, what do you want to tell me?"

"Superintendent Johnny, excuse me, we have done some small research on your fiancée's father, and now we have confirmed his loyalty to the Eagle Nation. You can take him home."

After Field finished speaking, he clapped his hands. Then Henry, who was pale and limp, was helped out of the secret room by two people and came to Johnny.

"Sir, Mr. Henry is a viscount. What you are doing is totally unruly!"

Johnny got 'angry'.

"Superintendent Johnny, when it comes to national security, there is no such thing as a viscount, marquis, or duke. You are from the Political Department, so you should be very clear about this."

Field's tone was extremely calm.

"..."

Johnny took Henry with a look of helplessness, put his hand on his shoulder, and dragged him out of the Political Department's base.

"Johnny..."

After getting in the car, Henry stopped pretending, but just as he opened his mouth, Johnny interrupted him with a look.

"I will definitely contact the Zu family and let these guys know that the Viscount is not someone they can afford to offend!"

Henry immediately understood and continued.

"Mr. Henry, we should avoid provoking the people from MI6."

Johnny's tone was full of helplessness.

At this moment, Field is wearing headphones and conducting the 'final test' on Johnny and Henry...

More than an hour later, after removing all the eavesdropping equipment from Henry, Johnny took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Notify the boss, it's safe."
