Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 17 The coachman also wants to live in Tsim Sha Tsui

In the evening, He Dingxian walked around Shanghai Street and led people to collect all the fees for this month. Based on the bloody lessons of the previous month, the gambling fees totaled more than 100,000 and a penny.

Chaozhou Zou, who was in charge of managing the gambling stalls, personally escorted the police officers out of the door: "Axian, walk slowly!"

Qian Weishan held a bag in his hand and did not look back. He Dingxian turned his head slightly and showed a decent smile: "Uncle Zou, stay."

Both of them are members of the Chaozhou Gang, so they must be able to pay the money easily.

A younger brother stood by and said, "Uncle Zou, you're just a playboy, why are you giving me face like this?"

Chaozhou Zou turned around and said, "Axian is no ordinary playboy. Not only is he a ruthless character, he also knows how to make money!"

"With a gun in one hand and money in the other, even a playboy has to give him face. Is there anyone in Yau Ma Tei who doesn't know the name of a playboy?"

The younger brother was wearing a short shirt and had a scar on his face. His eyes were uninhibited and he said, "This young man who is looked down upon by others can still make a name for himself based on his ability."

Chaozhou Zou sneered: "Whether one's reputation is high or low depends not on whether it sounds good or not, but whether it is loud enough. What's more, if Hua Yaoxian kills Hei Xinhua, it means we are holding on to our territory. Whether it is for our own benefit or not, the fellow countrymen will have to Thank you!"

"In addition, his father used to be the boss of our society and was responsible for the pier in Sham Shui Po. Even a short-lived ghost must know how to respect him, do you understand!"

The younger brother leaned over and said, "I understand, boss."

"If you don't respect the elderly and miss old friendships, no one will respect you in the future." Chaozhou Zou said a word, opened the door curtain, turned around and returned to the gambling stall.

Daji followed behind the officer and sighed with emotion: "Brother Xian, Chaozhou beaters wouldn't send us out in the past, just a random little Sijiu would send us away."

Tan Yaohui held the baton with one hand, straightened his back, and said with high spirits: "It used to be in the past, but now we are just fooling around with Brother Xian."

Daji is a middle-aged man with a strong body, rough facial features, and a bearded face. His edges have been smoothed away in his thirties.

However, Tam Yiu Fai, Chen Jiale and Shapi are all in their early twenties, newcomers who have joined the police force for less than five years, and their positions tend to favor officers who rely on their ability to stand out.

Qian Weishan was simply a human spirit. He took a puff of cigarette and boasted without leaving a trace: "The prestige of plainclothes depends on the gun in their hand, and our prestige depends on brother Xian!"

"Brother Xian's prestige depends on his ability. If you follow Brother Xian, one day the uniformed police will be more powerful than the plainclothes police!"

He Dingxian laughed when he heard this: "What sweet dream are you dreaming about!"

"If I didn't have the gun you gave me, I would have been hacked to death that day. There is still the best gun in the world."

Qian Weishan said flatteringly: "Hey, brother Xian, I gave you that gun."

He Dingxian nodded, and the group returned to the mission office to hand in all the numbers. They greeted their colleagues and walked to the door of the mission office. They saw a rickshaw master guarding the street. When he saw him going out, he pulled up the rickshaw and ran forward and bowed: "Sir He, where are you going?"

"Shek Kip Tail."

He Dingxian got into the rickshaw and reported the name of a place. The driver had a sweat towel hanging on his shoulders and kept his head down without saying a word.

His voice sounded familiar to He Dingxian, but he couldn't tell anything from his back.

The rickshaw masters are all dressed similarly, and when riding in the rickshaw, they don’t care at all about who is pulling the rickshaw. Sometimes they don’t even glance at them. The masters will chat with boys and girls who usually go out to play. When they meet someone like him, For those who wear uniforms, the masters often dare not say a word.

Today, He Dingxian was in a good mood. He crossed his legs, sat in the car, and asked slowly: "Have I ever been in your car?"

"Yes, Sir He."

The rickshaw master was busy on his way.

"Are you waiting for me specifically today?" He frowned.

The master avoided two passers-by and replied loudly: "I used to wait for business in Shanghai Street. The first time, Chief Qian asked my car to go to Sheung Shing Street. Half a month ago, he noticed that you would take the car back to Shek Kip Mei every day, so Every evening I will come to the mission gate and wait for you to use the car."

"You've taken my car three times in the past half month, and the rest of the time you've taken care of your colleagues' business..."

He smiled bitterly: "There are many rickshaws on that street, so I can't dominate the intersection."

He Dingxian nodded: "What's your name?"

The rickshaw master replied: "Ni Kun."

He Dingxian smiled: "Do you live in Tsim Sha Tsui?"

The rickshaw master laughed optimistically: "If I could live in Tsim Sha Tsui, I would be willing to work as a cow or a horse, let alone pull a rickshaw for you."

He Dingxian shook his head: "Then pull the car for me first. You don't live in Tsim Sha Tsui anyway."

He didn't care whether Ni Kun had the same name or the founder of the Ni family in Tsim Sha Tsui. He was just a minor character now.

Everyone in the movie world has not yet made their mark. It is better to rely on them than to rely on yourself. You must live out your ambition. If they want to rely on others, they can really be used and cultivated if they are capable.

However, if he comes to this world and does something casually, he may change the future beyond recognition. Relying on the plot in the movie world to achieve success is not worth looking forward to, and is a bit naive.

On the contrary, things that happened in real history can go with the flow. After all, the plot level of the movie world is too low, and it is easy to be disturbed by a little butterfly. Really, the events and characters in history will be at a higher level. With his status, it is temporarily Out of reach.

When it can really affect the direction of history, there is no need to borrow anyone's influence at all, it must have already become its own faction.

This parallel world is specious and full of countless opportunities and possibilities.

Ni Kun was also very emotional after receiving the promise. He bowed continuously with great gratitude and shouted: "Thank you, Chief He. I wish Chief He a smooth career and a higher career!"

He Dingxian laughed loudly: "Hahaha, from now on, you will wait for me at No. 73, Shek Kip Mei at seven o'clock in the morning and wait for me at the gate of the mission at five o'clock in the evening. If any of your colleagues give you trouble, tell me my name. "

"But if I ride in your car every day, I believe no one will dare to cause trouble for you."

Ni Kun started pulling carts to make money at the age of sixteen. At the age of twenty-five, he finally got the opportunity. The gears of fate seemed to start at this moment. He ran very fast and shouted with great enthusiasm: "I remember it." , Sir He, must be on time every day!"

As for the rest of the time, he can naturally pull a car near Yau Ma Tei, as long as he can be on call. The same goes for exchanging other people's rickshaws for occasional use. Now He Dingxian doesn't need a full-time driver, but considering that he often has to run around at night to check on the movie store's business, it costs about a hundred yuan a month, including a breakfast. , late-night snacks, a dedicated driver for commuting to and from work, and occasional running around are also good. He can still afford it.

"Let's talk about it first. Regardless of whether you have a business name or not, don't go out in my name. You are just my coachman."

Today's rickshaws, and even taxis in the 1980s, most rickshaw pullers and drivers have a name behind them. Without a name, you can't get business at all. If you get into trouble, you will be beaten to death with sticks.

100% of the rickshaw drivers in Yau Ma Tei are Chiu Yee Yong. Rickshaws that are not Chiu Yee Yong cannot serve customers in Yau Ma Tei.

Since Ni Kun is a brave person, Ho Dingxian's words in this scene are quite effective: "Send me to the movie store in Shek Kip Mei today. I have to do something."

"Okay, Sir He." Ni Kun felt a lot more at ease in his heart, as if the refugees who were wandering had a home, the helpless poor had someone to rely on, and the hungry people had an iron rice bowl. .

As long as you don't act foolishly and follow Commander He, at least you will be able to have enough to eat these days. You want to talk about rapid success and great wealth? Come on, Commander He is not rich yet, so what are you dreaming about?

Going out to pull a cart and working hard just to have a full meal is a true portrayal of people like Ni Kun. At least, at least he is not thinking about making big money now.
