Hong Kong Movie: At the beginning, Big Boss B asked me to draw the death lottery

Chapter 12 I Just Don’t Want Grandpa to Miss Out on Wealth

After leaving the video hall, there is a food stall next door.

Food stalls are one of the places that offer the most cheap entertainment late at night.

Neighbors finishing work, gangsters whose emotions have not been satisfied for the day, and young couples returning from the movies.

The noisy drinking games and the unbridled sounds of blowing water interweave to create a lively atmosphere on the streets late at night.

Everyone's attention was focused on their respective dining tables, and almost no one looked at Blind Hui, who had a bruised face and was following He Yaozong timidly.

He Yaozong ordered a hot pot, then opened a bottle of chilled beer and handed it to Manghui.

Blind Hui quickly put the cigarette box on the table, stood up and took it with both hands.

"Do you feel that life is very frustrating every day?"

He Yaozong opened another bottle of beer for himself and asked.

Blind Hui did not answer, but just lowered his head even lower, which was considered as his agreement with He Yaozong's statement.

He Yaozong picked up the bottle and took a sip.

Then he smiled and said, "Actually, I also feel that my life is very frustrating, but as a person, you still have to have goals.

It's okay to feel frustrated for a while, but don't plan to be a coward for the rest of your life."

“I…I have a goal!

I want to save enough money to get an ID card for Xiaohui."

In that instant, there seemed to be light in Blind Hui's eyes.

He Yaozong picked up the bottle and motioned for Manghui to clink wine with him.

"Is it that mainland girl who works as a prostitute on the streets of Shanghai?"

"Xiao Hui isn't a prostitute, she was forced to do this...

I...we have to find a way to save enough money. As long as we get our identity settled, Xiaohui won't have to worry about being investigated anymore..."

He Yaozong also knew a little about Blind Hui's life.

At the bottom of society, there are many stories about ill-fated couples.

But it's rare to find people as miserable as they are.

One is a lone wimp who is the kind of wimp that any passing dog would bark at.

One is a northern girl who drifted from the mainland. In order to stay in Hong Kong Island with Blind Hui, she had no choice but to sell her body for money.

If two people like this collide with each other, it's despairing to think about what their daily lives would be like.

He Yaozong did not choose to continue communicating with Blind Hui for the time being. He began to think about whether the system would give him rewards if he helped Blind Hui in exchange for Blind Hui's help in starting the work.

He is now in need of an errand boy to handle the chores.

In his opinion, a hardworking and honest man like Blind Hui is the perfect match for him.

While thinking, He Yaozong subconsciously reached for his cigarette box, but found that it was empty.

So he naturally reached out to Blind Hui's cigarette box and aimed at a box of Hongwan cigarettes.

Blind Hui immediately became nervous and quickly reached out to stop him.

He Yaozong smiled and said, "What for? I'll pay you!"

"No...no, boss, you...you smoke this!"

Mang Hui's face flushed red as he picked out a pack of imported "Sanwu" from the cigarette box and hurriedly stuffed it into He Yaozong's hand.

He Yaozong glanced at Manghui, then pushed the pack of Sanwu back and picked up the box of Hongwan.

He ripped open the package neatly and poured out the entire box of cigarettes onto the table.

Then he picked up a cigarette and broke it. As the tobacco fell, an indescribable smell rushed into his head.

"Blind Hui, Jimmy only allowed you to sell cigarettes in Heliansheng's territory, but he didn't tell you to sell leaves in Heliansheng's territory.

If Grandpa finds out, he’ll chop off your hands!"

Blind Hui was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead. His legs went weak and he was about to kneel down to He Yaozong spinelessly.

He Yaozong was quick to act and supported him.

"Don't be alarmed, just don't sell it in the future!"

"Boss, it was... Yan Chanle who forced me to do this!
If I don't help him sell these things, he'll tell the police about Xiao Hui's smuggling!"

"Okay, enough of the nonsense. How much does it cost to get your girlfriend's identity?

I'll pay for you. From now on, you can come and help me with the work. Don't help Yan Chan Le anymore."

Blind Hui was startled. After making sure that He Yaozong was not joking with him, he stammered and answered.

"I consulted a pastor before, and he told me that getting an ID card for Xiaohui would cost about five... fifty-three thousand dollars.

But sir, I've tried to join a club before, but... but they all looked down on me, no one wanted me..."

"Starting work with me doesn't mean you have to join the society."

At this time, the beef offal hot pot on the table was already bubbling. He Yaozong picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up a pile of beef liver and put it into Manghui's bowl, then continued.

"Come back with me to get the money. Tomorrow, find a time to get your girlfriend's ID card taken care of.

I will get you a private room at the Clock Hotel next to the Hetai Tea House. You can stay there if you have nothing to do in the future.

I have any instructions, I'll be there at your beck and call, okay with that?"

Blind Hui suddenly felt a pain in the corner of his eye.

"Boss, can you tell me your name?"

……

At eight o'clock the next morning, He Yaozong woke up in the clock hotel next to Hetai Tea House.

He got up, washed, had breakfast, and according to Xiwei's instructions yesterday, he arrived at the finance company before nine o'clock.

In the accounting office of the financial company, he found Xiwei had been waiting there for a long time.

"Good morning, Brother Wei. What numbers do you need to collect today?"

"No more money. Grandpa said this morning that the company will not be doing loan sharking business for the time being.

They're going to send someone over to train us on proper debt collection techniques, but I don't know what they're going to do."

After saying that, Xiwei sighed, took a sip of tea, and continued to complain.

"I'm telling you, since we have a sharp debt collector like you in our company, there's no need to hire someone for training from outside.

But grandpa doesn't think so. He says this is the ability you need to make a living. Whether to teach you or not depends entirely on your mood.

Oh, by the way, Grandpa came by early this morning and is still waiting for you in the same teahouse as yesterday."

When Xiwei said this, his eyes were always fixed on He Yaozong.

To be honest, he was really envious of He Yaozong.

A gangster who had just been in the job for less than two days was met by the grandfather twice alone.

In the past, they might not even see Long Gen for a month.

Occasionally, when he was called over, he had not collected all the items and was scolded by Long Gen.

He Yaozong nodded when he heard this, and naturally ignored the issue of teaching Xiwei to collect the money.

"Well, dear Wei Ge, I'll treat you to tea later if I'm free."

Entering the tea room, Long Gen's smile was still as bright as ever.

"Ayao, did you sleep well last night?
Come, sit down!"

When they met this time, it was Long Gen who poured tea for He Yaozong.

He Yaozong took the tea and took a symbolic sip, then looked at Long Gen with a smile.

"Uncle, what's the matter with calling me here so early?"

"Don't pretend. Last night, late at night, Guan Zaisen came to me and gave me 100,000 yuan.

He said he hadn't decided what birthday gift to prepare for me, and was worried that he would gamble away the money.

Who is Guan Zaisen? No one knows him better than me!

So I forced him to tell me the truth. After knowing that you gave him the money, I guessed that you must still be thinking about buying bad debts from the bank, right?

As Howe Yaozong expected, no one who could achieve the same level as Uncle Liansheng was stupid.

But since Long Gen had made it clear, he had nothing to hide.

"Grandpa, buying bad debts from banks is indeed a way to make money.

I don't want Grandpa to miss out on wealth and fortune. If Grandpa is really worried, he can let me handle the purchase of the bad debts."
