Lei Luo and Yan Tong looked at each other, knowing that Chu Xiangqian said this just because he didn't want to get involved in the matter between them.
Besides, this gift is already heavy enough, so it makes no sense to make it difficult for Chu Xiangqian.
Lei Luo smiled and said to Lardboy, "Lardboy, you know that I never like to take advantage of others. Remember to come and thank Master Chu personally."
Lardboy nodded hurriedly, "Brother Luo, don't worry. A tiger over there in Nanyang is priced at 30,000 yuan. There are many people who want it if it comes to 40,000 yuan. Next time I will bring 50,000 yuan to Master Chu's door to prevent outsiders from saying that Brother Luo doesn't pay for things he buys." .”
Yan Tong's face turned dark immediately.
But he knew in his heart that if he took Chu Xiangqian's things without giving him money, outsiders would definitely laugh at him in the future.
Chu thanked Qianqian hurriedly, and then handed the tiger whip and tiger tail to Sanjiang Shui, "Senior brother, send them to the kitchen, and let them prepare some good dishes first. When you are half full, you can try the braised tiger tail and stewed tiger tail." whip.
Also, tell the chef that the tiger penis has been processed and does not need to be stewed for more than ten hours. "
Sanjiang Shui nodded quickly and took the box to the kitchen.
Chu Xiangqian wanted to ask someone to pour the wine first, but Lan Gang said, "I have no problem drinking wine without eating food, but it will be difficult for Mr. Lei. He is known to be a bad drinker.
It's better to play with a few first and wait for the braised tiger tail and tiger whip to be ready before eating. "
There is no conflict between Lei Luo and Lan Gang, and Lan Gang can be promoted so quickly because there is an old-timer in the police industry standing behind him.
In fact, Lei Luo is not the first Chinese detective, and he is not the highest-ranking Chinese in the police.
The reason why he is so famous is that due to his authority, he can manage and mobilize Detective Hua from all police stations.
And because of the new fee collection plan, not only have there been a lot fewer fights on the streets of Hong Kong Island, but it has not affected Gui Lao's income.
This alone made Gui Lao's senior management favor him very much.
But in the end, it was inevitable that he would become bigger, so he thought of appointing a second Inspector Hua.
Of course, this was a few years later.
And Yan Tong has never been a chief detective in his life. At the highest position, he was just a senior detective in Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui.
So Chu Xiangqian knew very well that betting on Lan Gang and Fei Bo at this time was better than betting on Lei Luo and Yan Tong.
And it can also avoid participating in the fight between Lei Luo and Yan Tong.
In fact, Lao Yan is still capable. After 1969, Lei Luo and Lan Gang ran away, but he was able to sit on the position of chief detective for another three years after the establishment of the ICAC in 1974, and successfully escaped to Thailand. Seclusion.
In other words, Yan Tong was in power for a full twenty years from 1956 to 1977, Lei Luo became the detective in 1958 and became the chief detective in Zonghua. He finally left only 11 years ago, and Lan Gang only had 9 years.
So Yan Tong really can't do it if he doesn't have some skills.
Lan Gang wanted to pull Chu Qianqian to serve the table, but Chu Xiangqiang said hurriedly, "While all the bosses are playing a few games, I, the host, just happened to go out to entertain the guests and have a few drinks."
When everyone saw what he said, they could only let him go.
Chu Xiangqian had been drinking and accompanying guests in the hall for more than an hour. He sent most of the people away, leaving some people who were drinking and boxing by themselves to be greeted by Sanjiang Shui and others, and then returned to the private room.
A dozen plainclothes men saw him coming in and hurriedly made way for them.
He saw several stacks of banknotes, at least as high as wine glasses, placed in front of Lan Gang.
Looking at it like this, Blue Steel must have won, maybe even three.
Fei Bo hurriedly said to Chu Qianqian, "Master Chu, come and pick me up. If you keep playing, I will have to drink the northwest wind this month."
Chu Qianqian hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile, "I'm a martial arts student, and I'm pretty good at it. When I get mahjong tiles and other tiles in my hand, I only need to weigh them to remember what tiles they are.
If you play with me, you are giving me money. "
After finishing speaking, he said with a smile, "The kitchen should be ready soon. It's better to try the tiger meat and have a drink happily."
Lei Luo and Yan Tong looked at each other and basically believed what Chu Xiangqian said.
After all, for a person as powerful as Hong Zhennan, he would win first and then draw in a tornado, but if Chu Qianqian went up, it would be a crushing attack, just like an adult beating a child.
In other words, Chu Xiangqian is more powerful than Hong Zhennan, and even the masters in Hong Kong Island, and much, much more powerful.
Therefore, Lei Luo and Yan Tong had to believe what he said.
But Lan Gang won but didn't want to leave the table.
Pulling Chu forward, he said, "Master Chu said that we will eat soon, so we can play until the dishes are all served. As for you saying that you can tell what cards are by just weighing them, that's your own ability, and it's up to you. It doesn’t matter.”
Lei Luo then thought about it. When he was able to take the position of Inspector Zonghua, he still took the route of the director's wife.
The hag went to Macau every two days. When she lost miserably, he kept giving her money, and then gave her an excellent piece of jewelry.
Only then did the hag willingly hand over the plan she made to the director, and insisted that the director read it immediately.
Thinking about it this way, if Chu Xiangqian is not only good at kung fu, but also as good at playing cards as he said, it would be equivalent to making friends with him, and he would have a helper with both skills in one.
As for losing tens of thousands of dollars, Lei Luo didn't care at all.
"Master Chu, Wu Tou has said so. You should give him a long memory to avoid gambling more and more outside in the future."
Yan Tong was stunned, then thought about it and probably guessed what Lei Luo was thinking.
He smiled and said, "Master Chu, I would rather lose all my money to you than to lose it to Blue Steel. Otherwise, when we meet in the future, he will use the money he won to make excuses."
Chu shrugged forward, looked at Fei Bo and asked, "How much did you lose?"
Fei Bo was stunned and immediately guessed what Chu Xiangqian meant. The fat on his chubby face trembled when he smiled.
"70,000."
Chu nodded forward, "Give me whatever is left in your pocket."
Fei Bo quickly took out a wad of money from his pocket. Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "Can I see these Pai Gow?"
Lei Luo, Lan Gang and Yan Tong looked at each other, knowing what Chu Xiangqian meant, and finally Lei Luo made the decision and nodded.
Chu reached forward to get the Pai Gow. He just touched each one with his palm, but in fact, he used his hand to cover it up and put each Pai Gow into the novice village, and then returned it to the palm of his hand in an instant.
After stamping all 32 cards, Chu Xiangqian smiled and asked Fei Bo, "Did you lose the last one?"
Fei Bo nodded hurriedly, and Chu looked forward to Lei Luo and said, "Then it was me who lost the dice in this round?"
Lei Luo, Lan Gang and Yan Tong nodded. After the cards were sorted, Chu took two dice forward and started shaking them with both hands.
Secretly, he took the two dice into the novice village, and used his mind to throw the dice several times in the game. He roughly determined the weight of the dice. He took the dice back into his palm with a smile and threw them on the table.
Lan Gang, who was sitting on the bank, was just about to take the card when Chu Xiangqian said, "Take it from the back row."
Lan Gang glanced at Chu Qianqian, but that was the rule, so he could only reach for it in the back row.
After Chu Xiangqian got the four cards, he just glanced at them, laid out two pairs and spread them on the table.
When everyone around saw it, they all gasped.
There were two double ten rows at the front, followed by 3 and 6 supreme rows. Lei Luo and others didn't even need to look at their own cards. They shook their heads and started counting the money and placing it in front of Chu Xiangqian.
One hand gave back 23,000, and then two more gave back more than 30,000. Chu Qianqian turned to look at Fei Bo, "Continue, or should we eat?"
Fei Bo thought for a moment and said, "One more shot, and then we'll eat when we get our money back."
Chu Qianqian looked at Lei Luo and others again, Lei Luo waved his hand directly, "If I play with you again, we will really think that our money was blown by the wind. Besides, we have to lose three people together."
It would be boring if we only lost to Yan Tong and me. "
After saying that, he pushed the Pai Gow in front of him to the middle of the table. When the others saw this, they couldn't help laughing.
For the first time, Yan Tong felt that Lei Luo was right.
Chu Xiangqian handed the money to Fei Bo, and the fat man pretended to be polite and said it was half for each person. Chu Xiangqian couldn't tell what he was thinking.
He stuffed all the money into his arms, got up and asked the chef to order the food.
A group of people saw that Chu Qianqian didn't care about tens of thousands of dollars, and they immediately felt that he was really worthy of friendship.
While a dozen plainclothes officers admired Chu Xiangqian, they not only did not resist when he ordered them and others to do things, but actually took it for granted.
Someone immediately went out to ask for food.
Lan Gang sat next to Chu Qianqian, constantly pestering him to teach him a skill.
When other people saw this, they couldn't help but look over.
Chu Qianqian said with a smile, "First, practice your hand strength for three years until your fingers can penetrate the wooden board, and then practice your claw strength. If you can hold crushed walnuts with one hand, then practice your hand speed."
All in all, five years at a fast pace and ten years at a slow pace. If you still can't do it in ten years, then don't waste any more time.
If you don't have enough talent or talent, no matter how much you practice, it will be in vain. "
After hearing this, everyone was in an uproar. If they had time to practice this kung fu, they might as well make more money.
Yan Tong asked quickly, "Master Chu, tell the truth, how much kung fu did you use when you competed with that tornado?"
Chu Qianqian thought for a while, Lei Luo and others' expressions tightened, and they all stopped and looked at him.
"To be honest, he can probably be killed in one move."
Everyone couldn't help but burst into an uproar. Chu Qianqian said with a smile, "The ability of Tornado Boxing is indeed worthy of the title of boxing champion. He is powerful and heavy, and his body is also unusually strong.
But Baguazhang evolved from swordsmanship, and it pays attention to killing with every move, so many people say that Baguazhang has a dark hand and specializes in hitting vital points.
Combined with the Upstream Dragon Step, I could actually swim to the side or behind the tornado from the beginning.
If you go to the side, do the same as I did in the ring, focusing on the kidneys or liver.
With enough strength and inch strength, after being punched, it may only be a huge pain at the time, but in fact, the internal organs have been damaged.
The longer you wait, the greater the chance of death.
And if they got behind him, there was a move called the 'Old Ape Hanging Seal'. They clasped Tornado's neck with both hands and pulled him back, then pushed his knees and hit his lower back and spine.
That's really both deathly and crippled.
If you use a darker hand, once you break the opponent's spine, your muscles will become sore and weak, and you can easily break the enemy's neck.
It's just that these moves are too fierce. If you use these moves to compete with someone these days, believe it or not, I will win, but you will have to kneel down and beg others not to die. "
Lan Gang, who was sitting next to Chu Xiangqian, was stunned, "Why is this?"
Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes at him, and said helplessly, "If you kill someone, you won't get jail time, or you'll lose everything in compensation?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Lei Luo also laughed so hard that he almost choked on a mouthful of his own saliva.
After everyone laughed, the atmosphere suddenly became more lively.
At the same time, he also knew in his heart that Chu Qianqian was measured in his actions and would not kill people casually.
The fear caused by his martial arts also became much smaller.
Not long after, cold dishes and hot dishes were served one after another. Chu Qianqian drank three cups of tea for everyone. After a few rounds, he drank more than forty cups of tea. His face was not red, his hands were not shaking, and he was not talking. A little stuttering.
Everyone knows that this guy's drinking capacity is indeed as rumored, and that it is better than his kung fu.
Half an hour later, the braised tiger tail came out, priced at two or three yuan per person. It was a delicious meal.
Then I felt like I hadn’t eaten enough.
Chu Qianqian said with a smile, "Brother Gang, Brother Bo, and a dozen brothers sent me to the club in the morning. In the car, I said that when the matter is over, I will bring a tiger back to treat everyone to a meal.
Since Mr. Lei, Inspector Yan and all the brothers are here to celebrate me, let’s do it together.
A tiger weighs four to five hundred pounds, with more than 200 pounds of meat alone. In addition, if the tiger brain, tiger tongue, tiger heart, and tiger liver are processed well, it will be no problem to prepare 5 tables of all-tiger feasts.
Then the tiger bones were used to make soup, the tiger gall was soaked in wine, and the officers were kept for a meal. When they got home, their wives and girlfriends said they couldn't stand it. "
Everyone was stunned again, seeing Chu Qianqian wearing a long robe and looking decent, they thought he was a serious person.
I didn’t expect that at the wine table, I could talk so smoothly and speak colorful words.
Moreover, the police in Hong Kong Island these days have basically not read much, and it is basically impossible to have fun with them when they talk politely.
It was just right for Chu Xiangqian to say this.
A dozen plainclothes men excitedly toasted Chu Xiangqian. After all, although they had a lot of salary and extra money, if they wanted to have a tiger feast, not only were they unable to do so, but the cost would also be unaffordable for one or two people.
So Chu Xiangqian personally invited them. For them, it not only gave them face, but it was also an extremely difficult banquet.
Lei Luo's heart tightened secretly, and then he thought that Chu Xiangqian was not on the right track. No matter how he could win over people's hearts, he could not threaten his own rights.
On the contrary, the better Chu Xiangqian is as a person, the easier it will be to deal with him in the future.
When you ask him to do something, as long as you agree, you will feel more at ease.
As for how to get Chu Xiangqian to agree, Lei Luo secretly thought, if 10,000 is not enough, then 50,000, and if 50,000 is not enough, then 100,000.
In short, I don’t believe that anyone would have trouble with money.
Of course Chu Xiangqian likes money, but he also wants to collect some antiques on Hong Kong Island.
It would be best if it were a Western antique.
Everyone chatted and boasted, the tiger penis was finally stewed and served in a big casserole.
The owner of the Guangqi Restaurant came over in person, smiled and said to Chu Qianqian, "Master Chu, I have been running a restaurant for more than ten years, and my father has also been running a restaurant in Nanguang for more than thirty years.
The tiger treasure you brought today is not only in the best condition I have ever seen in my life, but after my grandfather and father heard about it and hurried over to take a look at it, they even praised that the tiger treasure was from a 500-pound tiger at least. .
Tigers of this level were rarely seen in the north a few decades ago, not to mention now.
I am really lucky to be able to let my family handle it. Thank you Master Chu for trusting me. "
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he could tell that the boss was here to praise him.
But after what he said, the effect was surprisingly good.
The four detectives, a dozen plainclothes men and lardboys were all impatient by what he said.
