Repulse Bay, luxury houses by the sea.
After hearing the doorbell, Raymond put down the tea cup in his hand, walked through the entrance hall, opened the door, and saw two guys standing at the door carrying fruit baskets.
"Aze is here..." Sir Lei was wearing a white shirt and had a clean shave. After not seeing each other for a few days, this middle-aged man also started to adopt a casual style.
Li Shaoze followed Huang Weiyao into the large apartment, put on his slippers, and placed the fruit basket on the kitchen cabinet: "Good evening, Sir Lei."
"Hey, why are you here, you damn fat guy?" Raymond put his arm around Li Shaoze's shoulders and pouted at Huang Weiyao, seemingly not welcoming him. Huang Weiyao patted his belly and said angrily: "How about coming to play mahjong with you? Don't you want to?"
"Bad mistake, bad luck. I've been very lucky recently. I'm afraid you didn't bring enough money..." Lei Meng said with a beaming smile.
Recently, he was promoted to director. He attends cocktail parties outside every day, and sometimes plays two cards. But somehow, he won every game and never lost.
This has made Raymond feel like he has become the God of Gamblers recently. As long as he comes to play cards, he will almost never refuse.
However, the God of Gamblers always wins every time he bets, because others cannot bet against him. Raymond is sure to win every bet, but others dare not win against him. Speaking of which, even the God of Gamblers is not as majestic as him.
"Haha, if you win, it's because outsiders give you face. We are all one of our own tonight, you are stubborn." Huang Weiyao sneered twice, planning to kill Raymond without leaving a single piece of armor tonight.
But the atmosphere at Raymond's house tonight is indeed much more intimate than at a restaurant.
After Li Shaoze entered the house, he put his bag away and gathered around the table to drink tea and chat with the two bosses. He looked around casually and occasionally praised Lei Sie's taste in terms of the decoration pattern.
This made Raymond very happy. He pointed to the furnishings in the living room very proudly: "When I bought this house five years ago, I specially invited a master to come and see it. Not only was the layout set up with Feng Shui formations, but even the furniture was very particular. "
"Look at that fish tank. It's full of Feng Shui fish, and it matches the sandalwood screen next to it. According to the master, it's an aquatic wood, full of vitality, and good luck in officialdom."
The more Raymond talked, the more excited he became, as if his promotion and fortune depended entirely on the Feng Shui array at home.
Li Shaoze is originally from Guangdong Province and is very aware of the customs of Feng Shui in Hong Kong Island. Not to mention a big boss like Raymond, even a "double-spending gangster" like him occasionally goes to the market to buy furniture and has to have the feng shui tested when he moves it home.
This is not a simple superstition, it can also be said to be a custom. Anyway, it is for good luck and peace of mind. So when talking about Feng Shui, he could make a few random sentences and praise: "The sky creates water, and the earth creates 60% of it; the earth creates fire, and the sky creates 70% of it."
"Sir Lei is a master. He learned "Book of Rivers" so accurately..."
"Aze has good eyesight. I will introduce the master to you in the future." Raymond was very pleased with what Li Shaoze said.
Huang Weiyao sat on the sofa next to him and thought to himself: "This old man Raymond was able to get promoted because of this Feng Shui formation. Let me tell you...how could he not move to the top of the mountain? But he is still living in Repulse Bay. , I must be reluctant to part with this Feng Shui array."
"I'll also set up a Feng Shui formation when I get home some other day. Maybe Brother Ren will be me next time."
While Huang Weiyao was dreaming happily, Li Shaoze changed the subject out of politeness: "Sir Lei, where is my wife?"
"Your sister-in-law is cooking in the kitchen. Don't worry about her. Just wait and eat..." Raymond glanced in the direction of the kitchen and then continued to smoke without paying too much attention.
It can be seen that Sir Lei is very chauvinistic and basically has an old-school antique style. He likes the situation where the male is the main character and the female is the domestic one. However, Raymond had grown up from the grassroots, and his wife was a married woman from the housing estate era. She was not a lady, and she had no objection to domineering men.
"Tell sister-in-law to stop being busy and just cook a few dishes."
Li Shaoze said a few polite words, but Raymond didn't take them seriously. When the meal started, there were more than a dozen dishes on the dining table.
After everyone sat down, there were four of us, but it actually felt like ten people. It seems that my sister-in-law has been busy at least all afternoon for this dinner. However, it also shows that Raymond attaches great importance to the two of them.
You know, eating with the Police Commissioner in a hotel and eating at the Police Commissioner's home are completely different concepts.
Although Li Shaoze is now the number one horse in Lei Meng, this happens only a few times a year unless it is a holiday. Especially this year, Raymond has just taken office, and there are many things to deal with.
Therefore, some of Li Shaoze's thoughts must be expressed at this meal. Because some topics are not discussed early, and when time passes, it will be the same as if they were not discussed...
So when he was just using his chopsticks, he took the initiative to create some atmosphere. But after opening the bottle and drinking, he stopped talking and began to remain silent, silently waiting for the opportunity.
Sure enough, Raymond was also a human being. When he suddenly noticed that Li Shaoze's words had become less frequent, he immediately knew that this guy had something to say.
Scanning his eyes between Huang Weiyao and Li Shaoze, he couldn't detect any clues, and thought to himself: "I transferred Bodhisattva Yao to the West District because I saw him as a loser and wanted Aze to help me take care of my home."
"To be fair, Bodhisattva Yao shouldn't embarrass him. Is there something unexpected?"
Raymond was thinking in his heart, but the expression on his face remained unchanged. He raised his glass with a smile and said: "Aze, Wei Yao, I have only left the West District for a few days, and I miss my old friends already."
"Weiyao, how's it going? Is my chair pretty good?"
"Hey, you are so stable when you sit up. I have Sir Li in the West District helping me, and everything is going very smoothly. Now Sir Li is the head of the anti-gang group." Huang Weiyao raised his glass and explained the situation in the West District.
To sum it up: I am very obedient, Sir Li is very well-behaved, West District, you can rest assured.
Then he turned the topic to Li Shaoze. Raymond also followed the topic and continued to smile: "Aze, I heard that you have been promoted to senior inspector. Congratulations."
"Thank you, Sir Lei." Li Shaoze took the initiative to raise a glass and drink, and his posture was very good in front of the old officer.
"Why thank me, it's all your own hard work." Raymond said in a nonchalant tone, as if Li Shaoze's promotion had nothing to do with him. After gently sipping the red wine, he continued: "Are you still used to working in the anti-gangster group? ?”
Raymond also vaguely felt that maybe Li Shaoze wanted to talk to him about the anti-gang group.
But it shouldn't be... Li Shaoze was in charge of the anti-gangster group in the Western District before. Is it true that he is only suitable for serious cases and can't even handle an anti-gangster group? This somewhat disappointed Raymond.
After Li Shaoze put down his wine glass, he didn't show any timidity at all: "The anti-gangster team is suitable for me, but I have some ideas and want to seek Sir Lei's opinion."
"Let's be honest, I don't want to ask for anything, you're a bit rustic." Raymond frowned slightly and put down his chopsticks.
It's not that he minded Li Shaoze's requests, it was just that after becoming the first brother recently, he occasionally had contact with the mainland. Sometimes when he got down to business, he felt that Li Shaoze smelled of mainland China, and felt a little apprehensive for no reason.
After all, in his mind, Li Shaoze was his, not the mainland's. It was still early before 1997, and he was worried that Li Shaoze's early contact with the mainland would be detrimental to future development.
Li Shaoze came prepared. Now that he had said everything, he said directly: "I think some of the mechanisms of the anti-gangster group are immature... For example, it is difficult to collect evidence of the Young and Dangerous boys. After the guys arrive at the scene, people will They are all gone and no one can be caught.”
"In addition, some associations often fill police stations with people, resulting in a lot of operational information being leaked. In the end, the police are often the ones who are fooled."
"Well, what do you think we should do?" Raymond realized that Li Shaoze was not raising difficulties for him, but was instead giving him advice. Not only did he not feel bored, he put down his chopsticks and listened attentively.
Because these problems are all problems he often encountered when he was on the front line. If there's a way to fix it, it's definitely worth doing.
Li Shaoze had been prepared for a long time. From the perspective of a time traveler, he combined various miscellaneous knowledge and came up with a plan.
At this time, he exerted his great deceitful spirit and prepared to deceive Sir Lei.
"I think we can set up a sky-eye system and set up a surveillance department. Surveillance equipment should be fully deployed in every street and alley in Hong Kong. As long as there is a society that dares to cause trouble, the surveillance will be used as evidence, and they will be arrested immediately. people."
"If you catch one, catch one, if you catch two, catch a pair. Hong Kong Island will definitely become the safest city in Asia within a year."
"Then what?" Raymond suddenly discovered that Li Shaoze was completely following his footsteps...
When he rose to the decision-making level, Li Shaoze's role actually began to increase. It has evolved from charging into battle to planning the overall situation. Do you want to be so tolerant?
Li Shaoze took a breath and continued: "Set up another Skynet system to convert all office materials and personnel files from paper files to electronic files, and set up security permissions and networks to ensure the security of all files."
"In this way... the police force will enter the modern information era." After Li Shaoze finished speaking, he began to wait for Raymond's decision.
A Sky Eye system and a Skynet system are indeed the two major killer weapons of the police force.
As long as these two great killing weapons are used, it can be said that if the gods block the gods, the gods will be killed, and if the Buddha blocks the Buddha, they will kill the Buddha. You don't care what Hongxing Dongxing you are, just wait for them to attack the street.
However, these are all strategic decisions of the police force. Li Shaoze can only provide opinions, and the decision-making power rests entirely with Raymond.
At this time, Raymond also fell into silence... After a moment, he said: "Both of these ideas are good, but you brought them up a little late. My first decision after taking office was to change the police force's uniform. This will enhance the combat effectiveness of the police force."
"This year's budget will all be invested in the renovation. But the Skynet system is worth a try. You can implement it in the West District first."
After Raymond made the decision, Huang Weiyao immediately responded: "Aze, I fully support you."
"Thank you, Sir Huang. Recently, my wife controls two companies. One is for surveillance and the other is for computers. This is the contact information of the computer company..."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Li Shaoze was overjoyed and took out two business cards and photographed Huang Weiyao.
There was a brief silence at the dinner table.
