Lei family.
Wang Weidong, Uncle Hua, Lei Luo and Lan Jiang were sitting together playing mahjong.
Probably because he had solved the hidden dangers around him, Lei Luo seemed to be in a good mood and was not affected by the gap between him and Lai Hao.
The smile on his face has never disappeared since just now.
Lei Luo, who had just finished playing a round and lost several hundred yuan, said while paying Wang Weidong: "I almost forgot, Mr. Wang, I have to thank you for what happened today. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have done it." He knew that an undercover agent was placed beside him."
When Lei Luo said this, his face was full of self-deprecation.
After all, anyone who is placed undercover by someone he considers a brother will not be in a good mood.
Even though the undercover agent hadn't had time to do anything yet.
When Wang Weidong heard Lei Luo's words, he just smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just can't stand this woman, and I don't like anyone following me like a follower."
Lardboy, who was sitting not far away drinking tea, suddenly got excited when he heard this.
He knew that this was Wang Weidong warning him.
Lei Luo could see that he didn't care about the relationship between the two for many years, but Wang Weidong didn't have much friendship with him.
The two even had conflicts.
With Wang Weidong's character, he might be able to trick him at some point.
In order to avoid causing more trouble, Lardboy felt that he had to take some remedial measures.
Doesn’t Wang Weidong like money? Then prepare a big gift for him.
The two of them didn't have any principled disputes, and he didn't lose Wang Weidong's face, so he should be able to settle the matter by paying some money, right?
Lardboy himself was not sure, but he still made a few calls to prepare.
Wang Weidong, Lei Luo and Lan Jiang were talking and laughing at the mahjong table.
I also learned some information about Hong Kong Island from the two of them.
This is completely different from what I heard from Uncle Hua San.
It's not that Uncle Hua is hiding something from him, but that the two parties are in different positions.
Uncle Hua talks more about the situation in Hong Kong Island from a macro perspective.
Lei Luo and Lan Jiang both climbed up from the bottom and have a very clear understanding of the lives of ordinary people.
However, the two still chose to become exploiters.
The so-called dragon slayers eventually become evil dragons, which refers to Lei Luo and Lan Jiang.
Although neither of them are good people, their experiences are quite inspiring.
From a poor boy with nothing, after being admitted to the police academy, he relied on his outstanding abilities to become a powerful boss in the black and white circles of Hong Kong Island.
It is the object of admiration of countless young people.
However, it will only last a few years. When the British side makes up their minds to rectify the situation, all four detectives will be finished.
In Wang Weidong's view, the reason why they decided to rectify the situation was mostly because of the uneven distribution of the spoils. This can be seen from the attitude of the other party after the return was confirmed.
In addition, Britain is no longer the empire on which the sun never sets, and its colonies are becoming independent one after another.
They can only try their best to hold on to what they have in hand, so as not to end up in vain.
Wang Weidong looked at the two of them, wondering if he could take the opportunity to do something.
Judging by time, Lei Luo and Lan Jiang can still be famous for several years.
This time is enough for him to complete a round.
In addition, these two people have one thing in common - greed!
He doesn't mind harming the interests of Gui Lao at all. The only bottom line is not to conflict with foreigners.
This is easy to handle.
Anyway, the money in his hand was contributed by them, and Wang Weidong didn't feel bad about spending it.
After making a decision in his mind, Wang Weidong deliberately gave Lei Luo and Lan Jiang a few cards when the game reached the second round.
The two people who won the money laughed so hard that they couldn't even see their eyes.
Wang Weidong also took the opportunity to make a request.
"Brother Luo, Brother Jiang, I wonder if you have any friends in the police academy?"
"The current chief instructor is my classmate at the same time. Why, do you have friends in the police academy?" Lei Luo said.
Wang Weidong said with a smile: "No, but I have a few distant relatives who have always wanted to take the police exam, but as you know, it's not okay to take the exam now, so I want you to help me make it easier."
After Lei Luo and Lan Jiang heard this, they looked at each other and both guessed whether Wang Weidong wanted to interfere in the police affairs.
After all, after Han Sen went down, his original territory became vacant, and many people were eyeing this position.
Even Lei Luo and Lan Jiang went to discuss with Chen Zhichao, hoping to promote their own people.
But it was wrong to think about it. If Wang Weidong really focused on this, it would be too late to send him to the police academy now.
When they saw Uncle Hua on the side, the two of them had some guesses.
Although the entrance to the police academy on Hong Kong Island now depends on connections, candidates are also kept informed, just for fear that some people with bad intentions will sneak in.
After the issue of the return was confirmed in 1984, those British guys started to mess around, hoping that Hong Kong Island would become more chaotic.
Only then did some black sheep sneak into the police force.
Otherwise, according to the mainland's management methods, want to join the organization? First, check all three generations of your ancestors, including whether you had a fight in elementary school or whether you had a puppy love.
Of course, it's another thing to be corrupted by money after joining.
But these have little to do with Lei Luo and Lan Jiang.
Both of them are too young to continue working in this position. When Wang Weidong's people come out of the police academy and climb to a position that can threaten them, they will have retired long ago.
In addition, the British people have been criticizing them a lot recently, and Lei Luo and the others also want to leave a way out for themselves.
After all, no matter how the Chinese fight life and death, it is all a family matter, while Gui Lao is an outsider.
When Lei Luo and Lan Jiang were young, they were often made trouble by ghost guys.
Now that the two of them have become big, Gui Lao needs to rely on them, otherwise they will be allowed to do whatever they want.
"That's it? I'll call Lao Li from the police academy another day. When your relatives apply for the exam, just give me my name!" Lei Luo said nonchalantly.
After Wang Weidong heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.
After a few rounds of mahjong, Wang Weidong also began to become brothers with Lei Luo and Lan Jiang.
There is some sincerity here, and only they themselves know it.
The four of them were playing mahjong, and it was late at night before they knew it. Wang Weidong finally woke up after a reminder from the servant when he came to deliver midnight snacks.
Unlike Lei Luo and Lan Jiang, he had other things to do during the day, so he couldn't waste time with them all the time.
The 200,000 Hong Kong dollars lost that night were purely used to pay off the two detectives.
Anyway, if you change hands, you can earn it back from somewhere else.
When leaving, Lei Luo and Lan Jiang kept Wang Weidong at the door, and even asked Chen Xijiu to drive them back.
Watching the taillights disappear into the night, the smile on Lei Luo's face slowly disappeared.
At the same time, Lan Jiang's voice came from the side.
"Aluo, what are you going to do with Ahao?"
Lei Luo clasped his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, saying: "We are brothers after all. I have to give him a chance, and I have to give myself a chance. That's it for now!"
Lan Jiang looked at Lei Luo blankly and said nothing.

Jingle bells ~ jingle bells ~
In the hotel, Wang Weidong, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly heard the phone ringing.
After groping for a while on the bedside in a daze, I finally found the phone.
Just as the call was connected, Uncle Hua's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Weidong, come down here quickly. The capital has sent you an urgent message and wants you to receive it in person."
After hearing this, Wang Weidong suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed. While putting clothes on his body, he said into the microphone: "I'll get down right away."
In less than three minutes, Wang Weidong arrived in the lobby.
Then I saw Uncle Hua walking back and forth anxiously in the living room.
This made Wang Weidong's heart skip a beat. Something happened in the capital, right?
Thinking of this, Wang Weidong frowned unconsciously and walked quickly towards Uncle Hua.
"Third uncle, what's going on?"
When Hua Sanshu saw Wang Weidong, he quickly took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Wang Weidong, saying: "Weidong, the contents of the telegram are all inside. I have been told to hand it to you personally. Please open it and take a look. "
Wang Weidong nodded, and when Uncle Hua turned around consciously, he tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper inside.
I saw a few big words written on it - Qiunan is pregnant, come home soon!
When he saw the above content clearly, Wang Weidong's brain immediately shut down.
He stood there stupidly, his mouth wide open, as if he was petrified.
Uncle Hua, who came to deliver the letter, couldn't help but turned around after seeing Wang Weidong for a long time.
Seeing Wang Weidong's dull look, Uncle Hua's heart skipped a beat.
This telegram went through a special channel. After it was handed over to him by a secret member of the organization, Hua Sanshu rushed to the Oriental Hotel as hard as he could, almost getting into a car accident on the way.
Just because I'm afraid of delaying business.
Now seeing Wang Weidong's expression, Uncle Hua couldn't help but have some guesses.
Is the organization planning to take action?
If this were the case, the matter would be serious, and the right person to notify Wang Weidong should not be informed.
At this time, Wang Weidong finally came to his senses under the gaze of Uncle Hua.
He grabbed Uncle Hua and said excitedly: "Third, uncle, I'm going to be a father."
What the hell?
Uncle Hua almost thought he was hallucinating.
He was already prepared to receive explosive news.
Is this the result?
Wang Weidong didn't notice the change in Uncle Hua's expression. He was immersed in joy and couldn't extricate himself.
After traveling to this world, Wang Weidong has been alone.
Even though he had two wives, Lou Xiao'e and Ding Qiunan, he still felt alienated from the world.
When interacting with people, always have reservations.
But now that Ding Qiunan is pregnant, Wang Weidong has a greater sense of belonging to the world.
No, he can't stay in Hong Kong Island any longer. He has to go back quickly.
Not to mention that Ding Qiunan is at a critical moment during this period and needs someone to take care of him.
He also had to give her a status before Ding Qiunan showed her pregnancy.
After all, people's words are scary.
Especially in this day and age, it is easy for neighbors to gossip about you if you are pregnant out of wedlock.
Maybe because of Wang Weidong's status, they didn't dare to say it openly, but it was inevitable to point fingers behind his back.
Fortunately, the mission to Hong Kong Island has been completed ahead of schedule, and Jiang Deming and the others can handle the rest.
Even if Wang Weidong goes back early alone, it will not affect the overall situation.
However, you still have to say hello to your superiors first to avoid any misunderstanding.
It is not possible to make calls back to the mainland from Hong Kong Island. Currently, the only one that can open international calls to the mainland is Lao Maozi, and it is not very stable.
Therefore, Wang Weidong still had to send a telegram.
The steel rolling mill itself has a telegraph machine. Now that the Ding family all work there, Wang Weidong is not worried about not being able to contact them.
After making his decision, Wang Weidong took Uncle Hua and ran out.
If you want to contact the capital as soon as possible, you will naturally have to rely on Runhua's channels.
When Uncle Hua came to his senses, he was already in the car.
*******
In the capital, Liu Feng, who had just assumed the position of factory director, was busy handling work in the factory.
He was busy, but he was still busy and happy.
Now the third rolling mill has become the envy of all its brother mills.
If this situation continues, it won't be long before he can be promoted like Director Yang.
Liu Feng is much younger than Director Yang, and he also has his own ambitions. He wants to have a platform to display his talents, but the steel rolling mill is still a bit small after all.
Just then, there was a knock on the office door.
After Liu Feng said to come in, his new assistant Xiao Zhou opened the door and walked in.
"Director, Wang Weidong sent you a telegram from Hong Kong Island, saying that he wanted to request approval for his return."
Liu Feng frowned when he heard this, and said displeasedly: "Luan Tanqin, he went to do business in the past, and he hasn't finished the business yet. What are you doing back here?"
Xiao Zhou did not dare to comment, so he could only act as if he had not heard anything and continued: "He said he wanted to talk to you in person and will not leave until you reply."
Liu Feng rubbed his eyebrows, took off his glasses and stood up. Although he was scolding, he was just pretending.
The steel rolling mill is what it is today because Wang Weidong has come up with good things one after another. The great contributors must have some special treatment.
As assistant Xiao Yi got up and arrived at the telegraph room, Qian Hongjun, the correspondent in charge of the first telegram, was translating the code.
Liu Feng and Xiao Zhou just looked at it, waiting for Qian Hongjun to complete the translation before they stepped forward.
Noticing the arrival of the factory director, Qian Hongjun stood up quickly and said, "Director, you came just in time. I have a telegram here to give to you."
With that said, he handed over the content he had just translated to Liu Feng.
When he saw the content above, Liu Feng's eyes widened instantly.
Wang Weidong was afraid that the factory director would not approve, so he told him that he had millions of Hong Kong dollars in hand, and declared that he was willing to contribute these funds.
Sure enough, Liu Feng, who originally wanted to refuse sternly, hesitated after seeing this.
When huge amounts of money are involved, he can no longer make the decision himself.
After thinking about it, Liu Feng simply contacted the senior leader and reported the matter.
As for how to decide, let the higher-ups worry about it.
Anyway, the benefits of the steel rolling mill are definitely indispensable in this matter.
Our people got the money back and handed it over intuitively. So when there is something good, you have to give us a priority, right?
Several million Hong Kong dollars were not a small sum in the 1960s. According to the current exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to US dollars, 5.65 Hong Kong dollars can be exchanged for 1 US dollar, which is more than 5 million, which is more than 100 US dollars.
The current per capita income in the United States is less than $2,000.
