Reborn in 1970, I thrived in Hong Kong.

The person who pushed open the door and walked out was none other than Li Huai-ren.

Li Huai-ren originally planned to wait until evening to make his move.

However, firstly, it was already confirmed yesterday that Lei Luo, the Ma family, and others would be at the Chaoshan Guild Hall all day today; secondly, there are many things to do today, and the time is tight with heavy tasks.

Therefore, Li Huai-ren adjusted the timing of the operation. As soon as Lei Luo's family left, he immediately took action, and he also went along with them.

Li Huai-ren pushed open the door and went out, only to find another room outside, with a large padlock on the door.

He immediately turned back to the basement where the cash was hidden, asked someone for a pair of steel cutters he had brought in, and with a "snap," cut the padlock.

He used his gloved right hand to remove the broken padlock, tossed it on the ground, opened the door, and went inside.

With a "click," Li Huai-ren turned on the light.

Immediately, the room was filled with antique calligraphy and paintings, and two medium-sized safes came into view.

Li Huai-ren was overjoyed and quickly returned to the basement next door to call people to move the antique paintings and calligraphy, as well as the two safes, away as well.

At 10 a.m., Li Huai-ren and his entourage had already moved about five tons of cash, a large pile of antique paintings and calligraphy, and two safes from the basement of Lei Luo's villa, and returned by the same route.

Immediately, the twenty men split into several groups:

He was responsible for secretly changing vehicles along the way to transport the valuables back to the basement of Li Huai-ren's villa, according to the plan.

One team was responsible for covering the rear and erasing all traces and clues; another team headed towards the Ma family's lair; and the others went to the other Chinese detectives and the British...

Everything was carried out strictly according to the established plan. After succeeding, they immediately withdrew and erased all traces.

Fortunately, today is the Lantern Festival, and no one would be sitting in the basement all the time with nothing better to do than eat their fill. Of course, this is also largely due to the eighteen true disciples of Longhu Mountain's ability to find treasures and avoid misfortune. Things are progressing quite smoothly.

After a busy day and night, at four o'clock the next morning, Li Huai-ren's long-planned "Leave the Money Behind" operation was successfully completed!

The basements and storage rooms of the homes of Chinese detectives such as Lei Luo, Yan Tong, and Lan Jiang, as well as the leaders of Hong Kong's shady organizations such as "Fan" Ma, Lao Xiangjia, and Limpy Ho, and various secretaries of the Hong Kong British government, were all raided and emptied of their valuables, which were all stored in Li Huai Ren's basement.

After the plan was successfully completed, the eighteen disciples of Longhu Mountain were immediately transported to Phoenix Film City in batches by Li Huai-ren's security team in eight vehicles along different routes.

They will play Taoist priests in a Taoist temple that has already been built in the film and television city. When there are scenes to be filmed in the temple, they will act as extras, and when there are no scenes to be filmed, they will quietly cultivate themselves.

Their future cultivation resources, such as rare medicinal herbs like ginseng and lingzhi from certain years, were all provided by Li Huai-ren.

Li Huai-ren was very fortunate that video surveillance was a relatively new technology and not yet widely used, which allowed him to successfully carry out his "leave the money behind" plan without anyone noticing.

The next day, Ye San Niang and Zhang Guorong didn't get up until after seven o'clock, and they seemed a little dazed.

Since Ye San Niang came to the Li family, this was the first time in more than ten years that she had gotten up so late, and she found it very strange:

"How strange, I only took a nap yesterday, how come I woke up this morning? When did I become such a heavy sleeper?"

Leslie Cheung also felt very strange:

"What happened? After school yesterday afternoon, I just went back to my room to change my clothes. I didn't even eat dinner and slept until now!"

He rubbed his rumbling stomach and smelled the aroma of congee with preserved egg and lean pork wafting from the kitchen. Without dwelling on why he had slept for so long on an empty stomach, he rushed into the kitchen to get something to eat to fill his belly.

Both of them had been put to sleep by Qiao Wu using special methods from Longhu Mountain, and only woke up now.

It's not that I don't trust them, but after all, the fewer people who know about the "leave the money behind" plan, the better. If they find out, it might not be a good thing for them.

Therefore, Li Huai-ren had to cook breakfast himself today.

Fortunately, the saying "foodies are usually culinary experts" is still quite accurate. Although Li Huai-ren's culinary skills are not as good as Ye San-niang's, he can still handle the likes of Leslie Cheung and Brigitte Lin.

Today was the first day of school for all primary and secondary schools in Hong Kong. After breakfast, everyone went to school. Li Huai-ren did not immediately go to take inventory of the valuables locked in the basement, but went to school with Leslie Cheung.

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

At 11 a.m. that day, Lei Luo reached an agreement with Yi Zhong, the leader of the 14K triad, to buy 50 kilograms of gold and a batch of diamonds from the 14K triad in cash. When he went home to the basement to retrieve the money, he pushed open the basement door and immediately rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating.

The two basement doors were wide open, and the rooms were completely empty!

A moment later, a chilling roar suddenly echoed from the basement:

"Who? Who stole all my money?"

I'll dig three feet into the ground in Hong Kong and find you, then I'll tear you to pieces and throw you into the sea to feed the fish!

"Pfft your mother..."

A dozen minutes later, Lei Luo, who had been hoarse from shouting, suddenly looked much older. He leaned against the wall as he returned from the basement to his study on the second floor of the villa. His right hand trembled as he picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said in a trembling voice:

"It's me, Piggy. Send word that all the Chinese detectives, gang leaders, bosses, and arresting officers in Hong Kong must come to my house for a meeting!"

Tell them that anyone who isn't at my house in two hours is never to come again!

Although Lui Lok has retired and it's inevitable that his influence will fade, his former protégés and associates are scattered throughout Hong Kong's police stations, and his influence remains.

As soon as he made that call, all the well-known figures in Hong Kong's underworld and legitimate society rushed to his house at breakneck speed.

The reason is simple: Lei Luo, this ruthless man, rarely speaks harshly. Every time he does, the fish and shrimp in the waters around Hong Kong are guaranteed to have an extra dish called "human flesh," and it's a large, filling meal.

Today, Lei Luo not only spoke harshly, but also changed his previous style of only hinting without explicitly stating anything, directly issuing a clear message to both the Hong Kong underworld and legitimate society:

Anyone who doesn't arrive at his house within two hours should never go there again!

Everyone in the underworld and the legitimate world understood this: anyone who didn't arrive at his house within two hours was Lei Luo's enemy, and the two sides would fight to the death!

An old tiger that has lost its teeth is still a tiger, and when it gets angry, it is the most ruthless and reckless of all.

Lei Luo is now a toothless old tiger. The leaders of both the underworld and the legitimate world in Hong Kong naturally do not want to bear his wrath, so they all obediently rush to Lei Luo's house.

At 1:30 p.m., leaders from both the Hong Kong underworld and legitimate society gathered at Lui Lok's villa. Lui Lok investigated the case directly on-site and assigned tasks.

After seeing the scene, "Fan" Ma, Yan Tong and others were all shocked. They all hid their ill-gotten gains in the basement of their homes. If the other party dug a tunnel to steal Lei Luo's wealth, what about theirs?
