Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

The head of the Li family has always prioritized profit. In his mind, business has no borders, and as long as there is enough profit, anything can be done.
A great thinker once said that with a 100% profit, it will dare to trample on all the laws of the world; with a 300% profit, it will commit any crime, even risking the gallows!
The head of the Li family deeply agreed, as businessmen prioritize profit. Therefore, in this conflict, he saw the profits in currying favor with the Hong Kong government and even John Bull, without considering that the blood of the Chinese people flowed in his veins!
"I know, father!"

Li Shao received this kind of education from a young age, so he was not surprised by his father's choice. After all, this was the Li family's philosophy!

"Yes, handle it well, appease the Wu family. Before that nephew from the Bao family enters the business, we must ensure that the Wu family doesn't cause any problems!"

"Yes, father!"

Li Shao handed the mobile phone to his subordinate, walked briskly to Huo Shao and He Yuzhu, and smiled disdainfully. The reason he was in a difficult position earlier was because he didn't know his father's choice, but now...

"Young Master Li, it seems you—no, your Li family—have made a choice?"

Huo Shao looked at Li Shao, who had just finished the phone call, with a half-smile. This had always been the Li family's style. He had already anticipated this outcome when he went to answer the phone!

“That’s right, my Li family supports Wu Jing’s statement. Hong Kong Island was originally ceded to John Bull by the Qing Dynasty. This is an indisputable fact. Mr. He, I sympathize with your inability to accept historical reality, but that doesn’t mean I allow you to beat up members of my Li family because of historical facts!”

At this moment, Young Master Li was exceptionally tough, a stark contrast to his previous demeanor!
"Young Master Li, it seems that your Li family thinks so too. In that case, I can't say anything. But I hope you can remember this and not do something like eating from a bowl and then smashing the pot."

"Young Master Huo, thank you and your Huo family for everything you've done for China. In the future, if you have the chance to visit Beijing, please let me know your name is He Yuzhu at a suitable restaurant!"

The objective has been achieved. The words just spoken have been recorded by the paparazzi that Song Cheng hired. Today's mission has been exceeded, and this farce should come to an end.
Li family, you probably don't understand how much impact today's remarks will have on you. You thought it would be enough to swindle Wu Jing out of a sum of money, but who knew that with the Huo family's appearance, the Li family would also take sides.

Such a big thing, it would be inappropriate not to share it with everyone back in China. Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. Just wait, the Li family will pay for their behavior!

"Alright, He Yuzhu of the He Family Restaurant, I've long admired his reputation in Hong Kong. I'll definitely come to Beijing to visit him when I have the chance!"

The Huo and Li families were originally on opposite sides, so naturally he wouldn't care about the Li family's opinion. On the contrary, He Yuzhu's choice surprised him. He thought that this man would treat Young Master Li the same way he treated Wu Jing, but who knew...

It seems that Father was right. Since He Yuzhu dared to stir up trouble in Hong Kong, he must have his own plans. However, what those plans are is still unclear!
"Mr. He, I'm sorry, you can leave now!" Just then, Asir, who had gone to verify his identity, arrived and respectfully handed his documents to He Yuzhu!
"Wait, Asir, is this how you serve us taxpayers? Shouldn't such a madman be taken to the police station?"

Wu Jing was unwilling. He had spent 12 million yuan tonight just to save face for the Wu family and himself, but in the end, he lost the money, got beaten up, and the culprit was left to leave easily.

If I let any raindrops leave today, I will become a laughing stock in Hong Kong's upper-class Chinese circles tomorrow. I absolutely will not allow that to happen!
“Young Master Wu, if you have any complaints, you can talk to the Chief or go to Government House. My current task is to escort Mr. He away, and also to all of you. If Mr. He gets into trouble in your sphere of influence, that gang will be considered to be opposing all the police on Hong Kong Island, and that gang will be expelled from Hong Kong Island!”

What a joke! What just happened has already reached the Governor's House. The Governor has given a direct order that Ho Yu-chu cannot get into trouble on Hong Kong Island, otherwise, the sky will fall and the earth will collapse.
Although I don't know what that ordinary document represents, the fact that the Governor's Office has given it such strict protection must mean there's something I don't know about it, but I have absolutely no interest in such details.

"Asir, are you sure you want to do this?"

Li Shao's face darkened. He had thought that by endorsing He Yuzhu, he could leave something behind, or at the very least, make the person behind He Yuzhu show up. Who knew that the other party would simply produce an ID from Shenzhou and leave unscathed!
This made Li Shao very embarrassed. After all, the Li family had just taken sides, but it seemed that taking sides clearly did not cause He Yuzhu any trouble. This was also very shameful for the Li family!
"Yes, I'm sure. If the Li family has any objections, they can go directly to the Hong Kong government!"

After the police officer in charge finished speaking, he waved his hand, and his fully armed colleagues protected He Yuzhu!

"Good, very good. My father will negotiate with the Hong Kong government. Hopefully, Asir received orders from the Hong Kong government as well. Mr. He, you're new here, so I advise you to be careful. Making enemies everywhere is not a good thing!"

Li Shao felt very offended. He was the eldest son of one of the four major Chinese families. How could He Yuzhu from China make him so timid and hesitant? It was really disgusting!
"Young Master Li, business knows no borders, but businessmen do. I hope your Li family will not go astray, otherwise, the whole country will not allow it!"

He Yuzhu sneered, "Damn Li family, I'm waiting for you to come to China. Then you'll know the importance of patriotism. A family that only knows how to make a profit doesn't deserve to have the blood of the Yellow Emperor flowing in its veins!"
"Foolish! Businessmen are driven by profit. You're a businessman too, yet you can utter such foolish words. Mr. He, I think I've seen your end. This is all you'll ever be!"

After saying that, Li Shao turned and left. With the police protecting him, he wasn't afraid of the Li family. It was clearly the Hong Kong government's intention. Otherwise, even if the Chief Inspector of the Chinese Constable came, he wouldn't dare to do this. He might as well go back early and let his father make a decision!
"You don't need to worry about that!"

Today, He Yuzhu's name resounds throughout the upper-class Chinese circles. He caused heavy losses to the Wu family, beat up Wu Jing, and even when the Li family stood up, he left unscathed, despite so many thugs being present.

Therefore, two completely different voices emerged in the upper-class Chinese community on Hong Kong Island. The first was in support of Ho Yu-chu, who believed that the Wu and Li families had forgotten their roots and had forgotten where they came from. The second was disdain, who thought that he was just a country bumpkin from the mainland who really thought he was someone important.
"Brother Zhu, thankfully we escaped unharmed today, but this can't happen again. The Wu family is one thing, they're on their last legs; if Wu Jing keeps causing trouble like this, they won't last long. But the Li family is a different story!" (End of Chapter)
