Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Ever since Liu Xu single-handedly challenged the Sun Kee headquarters and forced Sun Kee to give up Wan Chai, he and Lian Sheng have been listed as untouchables by all forces in Hong Kong Island.

However, peaceful times are always easy to be overlooked. In the blink of an eye, a fine cold rain was falling on Nathan Road in December, and the neon signs cast a colorful halo in the accumulated water.

New Year's Day is just two days away. Newsstands on the street are constantly hawking the special edition "Hong Kong Island's Economy Will Take Off in 85", and papers with wet ink are passing across the wet streets.

When the sun was high in the sky, Liu Xu, protected by two high-end cars in front and behind, came to the brewery to inspect the beer inventory and production status.

Since I had previously made an appointment with the Director of the Transportation Department for dinner and gave him an "antique", the fire inspection issue had already been completely resolved.

After all, this was just a greeting from Young Master Changjiang, not from Superman himself.

With just one phone call from the Director of the Transportation Department, the audit manager of the Fire Department replied with a smile that there were no fire problems at Dongsheng Brewery.

The head of the Department of Health wanted to act tough, but when the Department of Transportation called the Director of Health, the other party's tone suddenly changed.

However, Liu Xu was not simply using his power to pressure others. After the dinner, he also secretly gave the two responsible persons a low-level "antique".

The resentment in the hearts of the auditors from the Department of Health and the Fire Department was completely dispelled. They held Liu Xu's hand with sincerity and said that they regretted not meeting each other earlier.

He also took the initiative to explain that not only was it Young Master Changjiang who was involved, but he also hinted that the Guo family was also involved in it privately.

Liu Xu cursed Guo Shengde's cunningness in his heart, and sent him out the door with a smile on his face, but secretly planned to make trouble for him with Young Master Li.

If Liu Xu wasn't worried about exposing his identity, he would have insisted that Zhang Zihao invite the leader of the Guo family to the outlying island for tea and a bath.

I heard that taking a seawater bath is good for your physical and mental health, and if you bathe well, it can even improve your sleep quality and help you sleep forever.

As the rich aroma of malt and the fresh fragrance of hops echoed in the brewery, Liu Xu withdrew his thoughts and carefully inspected the situation inside the factory.

In the raw material warehouse, forklift drivers skillfully operate the machines, accurately moving bags of golden malt and emerald green hops to designated locations.

The warehouse manager carefully checks the quantity and quality of the goods and records every data carefully to ensure the supply of raw materials is foolproof.

In the saccharification workshop, the roar of machines can be heard one after another.

The workers stood in front of the huge saccharification pot, staring intently at the data on the dashboard and operating the valves and switches skillfully.

The malt is fully mixed with water at a suitable temperature and gradually transformed into sweet wort through a series of complex chemical reactions.

In the fermentation workshop, huge fermentation tanks are arranged neatly, like soldiers waiting for inspection.

Workers shuttle between fermentation tanks, checking the pressure, temperature and fermentation progress inside the tanks.

They are like a group of careful guardians, always paying attention to the "mood changes" of each fermentation tank, adjusting parameters in time to ensure that the beer ferments and matures in the best environment.

In the filtration workshop, the filtration equipment runs at high speed to filter the fermented beer, remove impurities and sediments, and make the beer clear and transparent with a pure taste.

In the packaging workshop, the sounds of machines running and the friction of packaging materials are intertwined, presenting a busy and orderly scene.

After confirming that the brewery was operating in an orderly manner, Liu Xu patted Qian Lin on the shoulder with satisfaction and promised to give him a big red envelope at the end of the year.

Liu Xu then inspected the water plant and shipping company.

The former did not encounter any major problems because the operating team was mature and Old Man Wang was indeed familiar with the operation of the water plant.

As for the latter, Wang Bingsen, as a professional manager, has outstanding business capabilities with the support of Hong Kong Island's first-class community.

After leaving the shipping company, Liu Xu did not return to Dongsheng Building immediately, but went to Shanghai Street to check the situation of the shops.

Influenced by the Xia Kingdom's deployment of troops on the border of Hong Kong Island, both wealthy Chinese businessmen and British capital sold off a large number of their fixed assets.

As a person from later generations, Liu Xu waved his money and bought things at low prices when he knew that the two sides could not come to blows.

If he wanted, Shanghai Street could be renamed Liuxu Street. After all, 90% of the shops on this street were already under his name.

Thanks to the border exercises of the Xia army and the preparations for the return regulations, one-fifth of the shops in Yau Ma Tei are under his name.

With the official announcement of the return regulations, the passenger flow in Hong Kong Island has been steadily recovering, and the value of these shops has also been steadily increasing.

As a person from the future, Liu Xu knew clearly that this was only a small profit. By the 21st century, the prices of these shops would increase tenfold or even dozens of times.

Not to mention there is also a Hanyuan residential complex, fifteen parking lots, several nightclubs and dozens of bars and KTVs.

It may not be worthy of the title of 'Half of Hong Kong', but it can still be called 'Landlord of Yau Tsim Mong', and also 'Emperor of Kowloon'.

……

In the Dongsheng Building, Liu Xu tapped the table lightly with his knuckles, and the conference hall, which had been noisy just a moment ago, instantly fell into deathly silence.

The people sitting around involuntarily stopped talking, held their breath, and stared seriously at the young and slightly immature face of the first person.

As the words "Let's get started" echoed over the conference room, the atmosphere in the conference room became lively again.

He successively defeated three first-rate societies, namely Dongxing, Hongxing and Xinji, and half of the leaders of the societies were promoted from his hands.

Now it is not that Liu Xu cannot do without Lian Sheng, but that it cannot do without Liu Xu. This makes Liu Xu have the final say with Lian Sheng.

The uncles who used to meddle in the society were sent to retirement, and at the monthly main hall meetings they only had the right to make suggestions and no longer had the right to vote.

The deaths of Deng Wei, Shuang Fandong and others completely woke up the uncles, and the accidental deaths of the families of Deng Wei, Shuang Fandong and others made the uncles completely scared.

After more than a decade of comfort, they had long lost the passion and drive of their youth. All that was left was to enjoy the last bit of power and suck the blood from He Liansheng.

When their last rights were taken away and they realized that they had no ability to resist and that their families would be implicated if they failed, all this group of people could do was enjoy themselves.

Lie quietly in the shadows and enjoy the final dividends.

This is no small sum of money.

Most of the positions of the twelve uncles are vacant, and since he and Liansheng have taken over 70% of the vegetable and fruit market in Hong Kong Island, they can get at least 5 million Hong Kong dollars every year.

This is the main reason why these uncles can enjoy their retirement in peace.

"Mr. Liu, everything is peaceful in my sect. Neither Dongxing nor other small and medium-sized forces dare to cross the border. Only the Mud and Sand Company has some problems."

The one who spoke was Da Pu Hei from Tai Po District.

Since Tai Po District is close to the inland and sand mining is strictly prohibited on Hong Kong Island, the business that Liu Xu introduced to Tai Po Hei was to transport construction materials from the inland, mainly mud and sand.

For decoration, there is Da D, for building materials, there is Oura Kuro, and as for construction, he plans to put it under the name of the association's head office in the future.

"Did Li Laodeng himself get himself killed, or did he use his connections to get someone else killed?"

No wonder Liu Xu asked this question.

At this time, most businesses in Hong Kong need a license if they want to start and grow bigger and stronger.

Therefore, apart from Qingni, the only construction company involved in sand and gravel in Hong Kong Island at this time is Xia Ni, which is controlled by Oura Hei.

In order to obtain the license for Nissin, Liu Xu flew to Britain specifically to ask Lao Helen for help in person, and promised Skarlen to provide a thousand jobs before he achieved his goal.
