Blair and another ghost guy saw Chu Qianqian walking over with Margaret.
His face couldn't help but change, and then he became ecstatic, and even his breathing became much heavier.
Suppressing his excitement, he lowered his head and saluted Margaret, "Your Highness, good evening."
Margaret nodded in greeting, glanced at Chu Qianqian, and then said with a smile, "I heard from Chu that you and him are good friends. Gentlemen, I am very happy that you can come to the party, and I sincerely thank you for the security service you provided. "
After hearing this, Blair smiled crookedly. Ge Bai glanced at Blair, then glanced at Chu Qianqian and saw him nodding slightly.
Then he said with relief, "It is our responsibility and honor to protect your safety. I wish you a pleasant journey on Hong Kong Island."
After finishing speaking, he smiled and said to Chu Xiangqian, "Chu, we are very satisfied with the last report. I think it is necessary to award you a medal to show recognition for your work and dedication."
Margaret immediately became curious, hugged Chu's forward arm and asked, "Chu, are you still working in the police force?"
Chu shrugged forward, "I am Director Ge Bai, Assistant Director Blair, and Chief Superintendent Charles, the personally appointed combat instructors and consultants for the police force.
Last time, based on the principle of fairness, the three superiors authorized me to serve as the supervisor of a massacre, responsible for supervising the investigation and reporting of the case.
Finally, a report was written and handed over to the police. "
Margaret hurriedly covered her mouth and asked with an unbelievable expression, "Chu, have you caught the murderer?"
Ge Bai and Blair's expressions tightened, and they secretly cursed themselves for being idiots for bringing this up.
Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian knew how to behave and said with a smile, "Your Highness, two division chiefs and one chief superintendent were personally responsible for this case. Not only was the murderer arrested, but several accomplices were also arrested by Lan Gang and Liu Bo, who were responsible for the front-line investigation. An elite Chinese detective was shot dead.
It can be said that this case is an example of the highest efficiency in solving crimes since the opening of Hong Kong and the best cooperation between the upper and lower levels of the police force. "
After saying that, Chu Qianqian looked sideways at Margaret, "Your Highness, I think that as a member of the royal family, it is necessary for you to encourage and encourage everyone in the police force in your private capacity."
Ge Bai and Blair's heartbeats could hardly be suppressed at this time, and they looked at the hesitating Margaret with expectant faces.
Chu Xiangqian simply whispered in the woman's ear, "You are being restrained in London because everyone thinks you are not mature enough.
This situation is difficult to change in a short period of time. In this case, it is better to seek external support.
And this for you is just a few words.
Not only will it not affect your immediate interests, but it will also improve your image in the hearts of the people.
Once you gain the support of the people, even some of your shortcomings may become frankness and sincerity in the eyes of the people.
Therefore, I strongly recommend that you have more contact and communication with the people of London in the future.
According to the Celestial Empire, winning the hearts and minds of the people is the greatest reliance. "
Margaret is already 26 years old. Although her thoughts are a bit simple, she is not purely silly and sweet.
And she was really overwhelmed by all the rules, so she followed Norton to Hong Kong Island to relax.
As soon as I heard Chu Xiangqian say that I was looking for support from outside, I actually recognized his words in my heart.
And Chu Xiangqian just wanted Margaret to follow the people-friendly path of the future Diana.
This is also the right path that has stood the test of time.
And the lower class is actually very easy to win over. With Margaret's identity, she can easily gain the favor of ordinary women by just appearing to be more approachable.
As for men, let alone that.
Of course, Margaret's own identity and character determine it, and it is impossible for her to copy what Diana did.
But the way to be close to the people is not limited to Diana's. You can go to the people at the bottom personally.
Paying more attention to the life and education of the lower class, or even just talking about it, is enough for Margaret to gain support from some people at the bottom.
In the future, politicians in London will inevitably seek Margaret's support in election years, and this is her bargaining chip and confidence to expand her upper-level influence.
As for the royal family, after Margaret voluntarily gave up her inheritance rights, she would reassure the royal family more than Diana and receive more support.
After Chu Qianqian pulled Margery aside and whispered these words, Margaret's arms around Chu Qianqian tightened.
Chu Qianqian could clearly feel that his arms were sinking into a pair of soft hands.
"Chu, I feel that this trip to Hong Kong Island will probably be the most fortunate decision of my life."
Chu shrugged forward, "As long as you're happy."
Margaret smiled coquettishly and glanced at Chu Qianqian. There were some hints in her words just now, but this guy was not moved at all.
Of course, Margaret also knew that she and Chu Xiangqian could not have a good outcome, but she was still willing to communicate with each other.
Chu Xiangqian actually didn't mind, after all, he even dared to touch a wife, and even touched two of them.
For a single foreign woman like Margaret, naturally she wouldn't mind having a conversation with her.
But while seeking happiness, you must also consider the consequences.
After thinking for a while, he said, "If I have the chance, I would like to go to Europe for a seaside vacation. Do you have any good places you would recommend?"
Margaret then laughed and glanced at Chu Qianqian with a somewhat charming look. After thinking for a while, her eyes lit up and she said, "I have a close friend in the 'Little Antilles' in the West Indies. In the southeast of the archipelago, there is a small island called Mustique.
Not only does it have great scenery, but it also has a sanatorium, a dock, and an airport. Maybe you can choose to go there for your vacation. "
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he understood that this woman was planning to have a private meeting with him.
"Can you tell me how much it costs to buy that island? Maybe I can also buy a private island."
Margaret covered her mouth in surprise and asked after a while, "Are you serious?"
Chu nodded forward, some islands were actually not expensive, or even very cheap.
Spending a little money to maintain a good relationship with Margaret will be very beneficial to yourself.
This means that for your business on Hong Kong Island, you basically don’t have to worry about ghost guys causing trouble or worrying about you.
At the same time, I will go to England to earn pounds in the future, and I can also contact many people through Margaret.
The most important thing is that with the help of Margaret's connections, more Chinese antiques and European and American oil paintings will be purchased.
Not to mention, Margaret also promised to give herself a Chinese national treasure in return for giving her a good horse.
Based on this alone, Chu Xiangqian believed that it would be a good deal to spend tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of pounds to buy an island and use it as a secret base for private associations.
When Margaret saw him nodding affirmatively, she believed that Chu Xiang was really here.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Dear Chu, I'm not sure, but the small island in Europe should need more than ten or two hundred thousand pounds, right?
On the other hand, those on the Indian Ocean or Pacific Ocean side will be much cheaper. "
Chu Xiangqian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He could still come up with two to three million Hong Kong dollars.
Pulling Margaret's arm, she nuzzled at Ge Bai and Blair, "Margery, don't forget the plan we just made."
Margaret smiled slightly, continued to hold Chu Qianqian's arm, and returned to Ge Bai and Blair.
"Gentlemen, I would like to visit the police force in a private capacity tomorrow morning, is that okay?"
Ge Bai nodded hurriedly, "This is our honor. Please rest assured, Your Highness, tomorrow's visit will be kept absolutely confidential."
——
When Chu Qianqian was pulled by Margaret to meet the others, Ge Bai hurriedly said to Blair, "After the visit tomorrow, I would like to treat Chu to dinner, how about it?"
Blair knew what Ge Bai was planning, and the first thought in his mind was of course to refuse, lest Chu Qianqian be attracted by Ge Bai.
But before the words left his mouth, something suddenly moved in his heart.
Ge Bai wanted to invite Chu Qianqian to dinner. Even if he wasn't the middleman, he could invite him himself.
And just meeting, having a meal, and chatting will not be of much use to the relationship between the two.
In the final analysis, everything has to be based on interests.
Since Chu Xiangqian had just mentioned the names of Lan Gang and Fei Bo, he secretly thought that if he wanted to deepen his friendship with Chu Xiangqian, he might as well focus on Lan Gang and Fei Bo.
Moreover, he had just helped Ge Bai introduce Chu Xianghou. In the future, if he applied to transfer Lan Gang to the position of leader of the Kowloon anti-gang group, Ge Bai would definitely have to give himself a face.
"No problem." After Blair agreed, he pretended to think for a few seconds and continued, "SIR, I think simply inviting him to dinner is better than taking some practical actions."
Ge Bai was stunned and asked quickly, "What do you mean?"
Blair glanced at Hader, who was approaching Margaret again with Norton.
"Previously, Charles and I suggested that Chu buy the green land next to the Yau Ma Tei weather station and build a horse farm. This matter has been stuck in the hands of the Hader guy and has not been approved.
Now it seems that Hader has been convinced by Sir Norton, but there will be many troubles after the approval is obtained. So I suggest giving Chu enough support in this matter. "
Ge Bai thought for a while and nodded. Since the approval was no longer a problem, Chu Xiangqian had a good relationship with the local detective.
There is definitely no problem with the construction of the racecourse, it will only be delayed for a year or two at most.
But with the support of himself and Blair, Chu Xiangqian must remember this favor.
Immediately, Ge Bai looked at Blair with some curiosity, "How much benefit did you and Charles get to help Chu like this?"
Blair shrugged, "Previously Chu promised us that as soon as the approval was obtained, he would give 20 purebred Akhal Tekin horses to me and Charles, as well as to the senior police officials who had helped him in this matter.
But now it seems that 20 horses is impossible. "
After saying that, Blair stared at Hader's back, and Ge Bai also understood that Hader had caused Blair and the top brass of the police force to lose the opportunity to earn hundreds of thousands, or even millions of pounds.
If it were him, he would kill this guy too.
"Should we secretly cause trouble for them?"
Blair looked at Ge Bai in surprise and secretly thought, is this old guy crazy about money?
Then he thought that when Lei Luo became the Inspector General, he followed the same path as Ge Bai's wife who lost money in Australia all the time.
Two years later, that woman must have lost a lot of money in Australia, otherwise Ge Bai would not be so straightforward and want to interfere in the business of his subordinates.
Not only did Blair have no objection to this, but he was eager for him to participate.
After all, judging from the current situation, the business of those 20 horses is likely to go bankrupt.
Naturally, we have to recruit a few more powerful people to join the team.
After thinking for a while, he whispered, "How about we demolish all the shantytowns between the weather station green space and Nathan Road?"
After saying this, Blair shook his head, "No, if it's all demolished, the people from the Lands Department will definitely take away the land and make a plan. It's better to let Fei Bo secretly help these shanty residents get the real estate."
These properties were collected at a low price and sold to Chu. "
"Good idea", Ge Bai looked overjoyed. This special deal covers 10 acres of shanty town and 30 acres of pasture and green space, a total of 40 acres.
While expanding the area of the racecourse, the shanty towns facing the street can also help him build hundreds of stores.
After these stores are built, they may only need four or five acres of land, which can be resold for almost three to four million, and this does not include the additional five or six acres of vacant land, which can be developed into office buildings or residential buildings in the future. .
With this confidence, it shouldn't be difficult to get him 20 bloody horses.
Even if there are only 10 horses, that is 500,000 pounds, which is equivalent to 8 million Hong Kong dollars.
Of course, an acre of land at the weather station was nominally priced at 200,000 per acre, but Ge Bai and others knew that after smoothing the relationship, they could buy it for 100,000.
This was also the reason why Blair dared to tell Chu Xiangqian that the land cost RMB 100,000 per acre.
But without the intervention of senior police officials like Hader and himself, it would be impossible to build buildings and stores, let alone approval documents.
Otherwise, the local wealthy businessmen are not fools. Although the surrounding area is still desolate, it is located between Yau Ma Tei and Ho Man Tin.
The potential is still very large.
If someone was willing to spend a lot of money to smoothen the relationship, the land would have been bought long ago.
Ge Bai said quickly, "Go back tonight and do an investigation first. When Princess Margaery goes to the police force tomorrow, find an opportunity to talk to Chu about this matter in private.
If he agrees, I want 6 purebred Akhal Tekin horses, is that okay? "
Blair couldn't help but curse in his heart. According to Chu Xiangqian's previous promise, two Akhal Tekin horses, one male and one female, were worth at least 100,000 pounds.
It's like an old guy like Ge Bai took away 30% just by talking.
But without his participation, although he and other senior police officers could clear out the shantytown, the prerequisite was that Ge Bai didn't know the benefits.
If this old guy stays aside and causes trouble, even if he pulls Hader in, it will be in vain.
Of course, it is not impossible for everyone to unite and drive Ge Bai away.
But if you do something like this because of the profit of 300,000 pounds, the consequences are not only unpredictable, but the price paid by everyone as a partnership may be far more than 300,000 pounds.
But neither of them knew that Chu Xiangqian was now most likely only willing to give 10 horses.
And considering that the shantytown is adjacent to Nathan Road, many stores can be built.
Brett could only nod, "Okay, but the documents to rectify the shanty towns must be signed by you personally."
"No problem." Ge Bai knew very well that if he wanted high returns, he had to make sacrifices.
Besides, before I sign, I will definitely ask the management for a meeting.
It means that if everyone makes a decision together, in the end we can only advance and retreat together.
