Reinhardt stood up immediately upon seeing this, obviously no longer wanting to stay here any longer. If Fang Lang hadn't proposed to come here to experience the food stall culture of the port city, Reinhardt obviously wouldn't be here today.
When Yao Mu and Nottingham Jones saw the two of them getting up to leave, they quickly followed them.
Fang Lang glanced at the group of gang members who were being processed by the police not far away, and the corpses that had been covered with white cloth by the police. He smiled and said to Reinhardt:
"It seems that they are processing it very efficiently!"
When Reinhardt heard Fang Lang's words, his expression became a little better. At least now it seems that the police in Hong Kong City are not useless.
"Hopefully they can stay this efficient."
Nottingham Jones, who was following behind, quickly said:
"Please rest assured Lieutenant Colonel Henderson, I will work seriously in the future and ensure that the police will arrive as soon as possible every time I encounter something."
Hearing this, Reinhardt shrugged indifferently and took two steps forward. When he saw John Zeng who was escorting Cai Jiabing to the side, he seemed to have thought of something and stretched out his arm to John Zeng and waved. road:
"Hey! John Tsang, come on!"
Seeing Reinhardt's actions, Fang Lang couldn't help but be stunned, and for a while he couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd.
After hearing the call, John Zeng naturally did not dare to neglect. After handing Cai Jiabing to another policeman, he ran over quickly.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
"John, how are your marksmanship?"
This question stunned everyone present, some of whom didn't quite understand what Reinhardt wanted to do!
"Sir, my shooting scores in the police academy have always been among the best!"
"Very good, you are very brave! I have a job here that I can recommend to you. Are you interested?"
After Fang Lang heard what Reinhardt said, he couldn't help but become more confused.
When John Zeng heard this, he became even more confused and looked at Reinhardt who looked serious with some confusion.
"I don't understand, sir!"
Reinhardt patted his arm and said with a smile:
"Don't be nervous, friend, I think this is an opportunity for you. A few days ago I heard that Mr. Grantham wanted to add two security personnel.
I think you are a good fit. If you are willing, I can recommend you to him. What do you think? "
As soon as these words came out, not only Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu behind them were shocked, but they all looked at this British lieutenant colonel who looked very arrogant with their eyes wide open.
The two of them really couldn't figure out why this guy would treat a young man like John Zeng differently. Could it be because he had just bravely negotiated on behalf of the police?
Fang Lang also looked at Reinhardt sideways, wondering why he suddenly had a fit and wanted to introduce this job to John Zeng.
As the person involved, John Zeng was even more stunned. He really didn't expect such a pie-in-the-sky thing to happen.
If you want to know who Grantham is, he is the Governor of Hong Kong, the supreme leader who rules the Hong Kong city on behalf of the British royal family. His power is so great that he can decide all matters in the Hong Kong city without asking for the opinions of other people. .
Don't listen to people saying that the UK is a democratic country with a constitutional monarchy, and think that democracy can be discussed in the UK. If you really think that is the case, then you are stupid!
The port city during this period was a British colony. There was no democracy in the colony. It was just a place for Britain to plunder resources and dump goods.
The Governor of Hong Kong is the colonial emperor. He does not need to be responsible for the local residents, only for the British royal family. The police force is nothing more than a weapon in the hands of the Hong Kong Governor.
With John Tsang's current status as a police officer, if he can serve as a guard for the Hong Kong Governor for a few months, it will be an unparalleled political resource. Even the Commissioner of Police will have to give him some face when he sees him.
If they can return to the police force, they will definitely be among the top candidates for promotion and salary increase. Therefore, this is not a job at all, but a qualification and a political resource.
"But, sir, I'm just an ordinary policeman!"
Seeing that John Zeng seemed a little unsure, Reinhardt waved his hand carelessly and said:
"It doesn't matter. It's precisely because you are a policeman that I recommended you to him."
Just when John Zeng was still thinking about whether to accept this job, Nottingham Jones, who had been following behind him, said directly:
"John, what are you hesitating about? This is a rare opportunity. You don't have to worry about the police station. I will communicate with the director personally and will never set up obstacles for you."
In fact, Nottingham Jones was a little worried when he heard that Reinhardt was recommending John Tsang to work as a security guard for the Hong Kong Governor. Needless to say, he could think of the reason why Reinhardt liked John Tsang. It must be because of this kid. performance today.
But it is precisely because this boy's performance today is so good that he appears to be too timid and incompetent. Now it is difficult to get Reinhardt and Fang Lang to agree to conceal this matter. If Reinhardt now asks Hong Kong Will the governor’s recommendation of John Tsang remind you of what happened here today?
However, if John Tsang can really become the Hong Kong Governor's guard, it will be a rare opportunity for him and the Central Police Station to show his face in front of the Hong Kong Governor.
Therefore, Nottingham Jones was very confused for a while, not knowing whether to support John Zeng and agree with Reinhardt's recommendation.
Fortunately, he quickly realized that the decisions made by people like Reinhardt were obviously not something he could stop. If he stood up and expressed his opposition at this time, the results that had just been achieved with great difficulty might be lost. The success fell short.
Instead of standing up to stop, it is better to be the first to stand up and express support. This can let the other party see your attitude. At the same time, it also shows the other party that you believe in the other party's commitment and rest assured that the other party will not complain to the Hong Kong Governor.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Reinhardt looked at him, and his eyes were obviously much softer than before. He understood that he had made the right bet this time, and nodded in response to the other person's gaze. grateful.
When Reinhardt saw this, he was also surprised. He thought that this guy was a commander who cared about his subordinates, and he felt much better about this guy.
After John Zeng heard Nottingham Jones's words, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded directly to Reinhardt and said:
"Thank you! Sir, if I have this honorable opportunity, I am willing to try it."
Reinhardt laughed loudly upon hearing this, patted his arm again and said:
"Very good, I'm very optimistic about you! Take the time to train more on your combat skills recently, don't embarrass me!"
It is actually risky for Reinhardt to directly recommend him to be a guard of the Hong Kong Governor. After all, he does not know John Tsang well. If something goes wrong with John Tsang, he will also have to bear a certain amount of joint liability. responsible.
Therefore, although John Zeng didn't know why the other party was so optimistic about him, he was still very grateful to this British man who gave him such a big surprise when they first met.
"Yes sir, I won't let you down!"
Seeing John Zeng saluting and thanking Reinhardt seriously, Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu on the side were full of envy. Especially for Yao Mu, the step John Zeng took today may be the first step taken by the Chinese. .
Perhaps, after John Tsang comes out of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, John Tsang will soon be the first Chinese to achieve the rank of detective in the police station. This will be of great significance to the entire Chinese police force in Hong Kong City. step.
As long as there is the first one, there will definitely be the second, third or even countless others. If you can break through as a trainee inspector, you can break through as an inspector, superintendent, and even look forward to the position of police commissioner. It is not impossible.
After all, the number of Chinese police in Hong Kong exceeds that of British and Indians. If one day comes, Hong Kong City will be dominated by the Chinese.
Thinking of this, Yao Mu's eyes towards John Zeng slowly changed from envy to eagerness. He was already old and did not have long to stay in the police force.
After he retires, the Chinese will also have a successor within the police station. Now it seems that this young man is very good!
Not only is his courage commendable, but his luck is also incredible. An opportunity like this today allowed him to meet two noble people. His future prospects are bound to be limitless.
It seems like I have to give him a hand if I have the chance!
After receiving a positive reply from John Zeng, Reinhardt said nothing more, signaled to Fang Lang, and prepared to leave directly.
Seeing this, Fang Lang smiled slightly and stepped forward to shake hands with John Zeng and said:
"Congratulations! John!"
This made Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu on the side so jealous that their eyes began to turn red. What kind of luck did this kid have to have the two big guys favor him so much? Why wasn't I the one who was favored?
John Zeng also shook Fang Lang's hand in confusion, and he didn't react until Fang Lang let go.
"Thank you! Sir!"
Fang Lang didn't speak, but smiled and patted his arm, then gestured to Reinhardt and said:
"Wait a minute, Reinhardt. I'm going to say hello to the stall owner. I've caused a lot of trouble for them today."
After saying that, he walked directly towards the stall owner and his wife who were squatting on the ground not far away with nervous faces and looking around. Although the boss was lame, he was very clear-headed. When he saw Fang Lang walking towards them, he hurriedly pulled Fang Lang beside him. His own wife nodded to Fang Lang with a flattering smile on her face.
Fang Lang had a good impression of this boss, so he not only gave him ten dollars for the meal, but also came over to say hello before leaving.
"Boss, I'm going to cause you trouble this time!"
As he spoke, he extended his right hand to the boss from a distance.
The boss at Pojiao was clear-headed and knew that the person in front of him was a big shot that could scare both black and white. He had never shaken hands with such a big shot.
Somewhat nervously, he turned his apron over and wiped his hands again and again with the clean side, for fear of getting a little oil stain on it.
Fang Lang didn't mind at all and grabbed his right hand and patted his oily arm to signal the other person not to be nervous.
"Sir, you are serious! You are serious! It's because we didn't entertain you well, and you couldn't even eat or drink with peace of mind!"
The lame boss looked nervous, and his palms couldn't help but sweat.
Fang Lang knew that his behavior might make the other party very uncomfortable, but he had to do it. Such a big thing happened here today, and he and Reinhardt agreed to help the police conceal it.
Who knows what the police will do to cover up the situation. If this innocent couple is accidentally implicated, he will feel guilty.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary citizen, and he was very aware of the hardships of life for people at the bottom. Today's Hong Kong City is a cannibalistic society. Now that he has the chance to meet them, he doesn't want to see this ordinary couple being implicated.
Noticing that the people behind him had also followed, Fang Lang smiled and said to the boss:
"No, no, I think your craftsmanship is very good. If I have a chance next time, I will definitely come to take care of your business."
The stall owner couldn’t help but thank you profusely!
Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu, who were following behind, looked at each other and then took a deep look at the boss couple, remembering their appearance deeply in their minds.
These two people are recognized by the boss.
John Zeng, who had also been praised just now, his eyes lit up when he saw Fang Lang's actions, especially when he noticed that Fang Lang didn't care about the boss's oily hands and took the initiative to grab the other person's oily hand and hold it. An inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
However, this brilliance was quickly hidden by him.
