The Two Heroes of the Ye Family

Chapter 345 Governor of Hong Kong

On June 1945, 6, also the 15th year of the Republic of China, the Japanese Empire formally surrendered to powerful countries such as the United States and the Soviet Union.

With this, the three evil Axis powers of World War II all declared surrender, and the world war that had lasted for many years ended.

After the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War, many countries fell into civil war, and China was no exception.

Currently, the deep blue government is recognized by most countries in the world because of the support of the United States.

The Taoist brothers in Hong Kong have all learned that the Japanese Empire has announced its surrender, and the Ye family in San Francisco also knows the news.

Especially Ye Yuxuan and his wife, they were very excited. Their third son Ye Xiaoyang had already sent a telegram.

They had to prepare their family because once the Japanese Empire announced its surrender, the Ye family in Gusu City would move to Xiangjiang Island.

Ye Yuxuan is disappointed that he cannot return to Gusu City at the moment, but he still has to follow the arrangements of his third son.

The two domestic parties are about to engage in a fierce battle. They are ordinary people and are worried that they will be affected.

What's more, they already knew that their second son Ye Minghao was a member of the Communist Party organization, and they were the family members of a Communist Party member.

If the Deep Blue Party knew about this, it would most likely be detrimental to the Ye family. Gusu City is now controlled by the Deep Blue government forces.

The third son was far-sighted and made arrangements in advance.

The Ye family is now very wealthy, involving thousands of families, and any move can affect the entire family.

Settling in Hong Kong is much closer to Suzhou City than settling in San Francisco, the United States.

Hong Kong Island is temporarily administered by the British Empire, but in essence, Hong Kong is still Chinese territory.

For the Ye family in Gusu City, living on Xiangjiang Island is like returning to China, and they don’t feel like they are leaving their hometown.

……

When the Secret Service Bureau and the Party Communications Bureau learned that the Japanese Empire had surrendered, the two departments immediately arranged for agents to go to Hong Kong to investigate the situation.

But no matter whether they came by ship or plane, they didn't survive more than three days in Hong Kong.

Three days ago, the British Empire sent a governor to Xiangjiang Island to take over Xiangjiang.

The new Governor of Hong Kong was named Lampard. He came to Hong Kong Island with the British Empire's warships.

He could not have imagined that Hong Kong still maintained good order after the mysterious disappearance of the Japanese Empire Army.

He was surprised to find that the streets on Xiangjiang Island were very clean.

He didn't know when the Japanese Empire's army was mysteriously destroyed, and there was no British Empire compatriot on Hong Kong Island.

If he wanted to understand the specific situation, he had to find the Chinese people in the Hong Kong government to find out.

The biggest question for him was who had the ability to make nearly 3000 Japanese soldiers disappear overnight?

The only one that can easily destroy the Japanese Empire’s army stationed in Hong Kong is probably the mysterious team in inland China.

This speculation surprised Governor Lampard.

Could it be that a mysterious team from China came to Hong Kong specifically to deal with the army of the Japanese Empire?

If so, is this mysterious team that is hard to find still on Xiangjiang Island?

If the mysterious team suddenly launched an attack on the British Empire troops stationed on Xiangjiang Island, I'm afraid the result...

When he heard his subordinates report that there was not a single white person on Xiangjiang Island before their arrival, he was extremely shocked.

The legend goes that the army of the Japanese Empire killed all the foreigners on Hong Kong Island, but he doesn't believe it at all.

Before coming here, he heard in his country that there was a mysterious team in the Chinese mainland with terrifying combat power.

This mysterious team specifically targets the Japanese Empire's troops in major cities in China.

Of course, they did not let go of the traitors who betrayed China.

If this mysterious team has been lurking in Hong Kong, then he needs to think carefully about his situation in Hong Kong.

However, he was very clear about one thing: the mysterious team definitely wanted the people of Hong Kong to live a safe life.

The reason is simple. Everything in Hong Kong now is the best proof. People live and work in peace and harmony.

If you grasp this bottom line, there will be no problem with his safety. This matter cannot be told to anyone else.

Before he took up the post of Governor of Hong Kong, he conducted a survey on the overall environment in Hong Kong.

There are many gangs in Hong Kong, and gang fights often occur in the dark night, sometimes resulting in deaths.

After three days in Hong Kong, he felt that the current Hong Kong was completely different from the Hong Kong he knew.

One night about twenty days ago, the Hong Kong Daily reported the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

At midnight that night, the Japanese Empire warships parked in the waters near Xiangjiang Island were blown up by a mysterious team.

Then, gunfights broke out throughout Hong Kong where there were soldiers from the Japanese Empire, but the gunfights did not last long.

The next day, the people of Hong Kong discovered that there was no Japanese soldier on the island, and even the white people had disappeared.

Until the British Empire sent him to take over Hong Kong, the entire Hong Kong Island was in order and no major security incidents occurred.

The chief of the Hong Kong Police Department disappeared unexpectedly. No one has seen him or his body until now.

However, this police chief was promoted by the Japanese and most likely defected to the Japanese Empire.

It must be the mysterious team that made him disappear. In the eyes of the Chinese people, this director is a traitor.

Lampard sat in his office, sipping coffee and thinking deeply.

Finally, he thought that it would not be long before someone would pass on a message to him and discuss the development of Hong Kong with him.

Four days later, Ye Xiaoyang brought gifts and was introduced to Lampard by others.

Ye Xiaoyang introduced himself in standard English:

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Governor. I'm Ye Xiaoyang from the Ye family in San Francisco."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Ye."

Then the two began to shake hands. Lampard didn't expect that Ye Xiaoyang was from the United States, which surprised him a little.

The two of them came and sat down on the sofa next to the coffee table, and the person who brought them in saw the opportunity to say goodbye in advance.

Lampard could see Ye Xiaoyang's extraordinaryness at a glance, but he was not surprised.

He is a qualified politician, otherwise he would not have sought the position of Governor of Hong Kong.

"We welcome the Governor to come to Hong Kong to take up his post. This is a blessing for the people of Hong Kong.

It's our first visit, so a small gift wouldn't be enough of a sign of respect."

Ye Xiaoyang directly handed Lampard a gift box.

Lampard did not refuse and took the gift box directly.

"Thank you for the gift, Mr. Ye."

“I have wanted to visit the Governor for a long time, but I was worried that he would have too many things to deal with since he had just arrived.

That is why I have postponed my visit to you until today. I hope I have not disturbed the Governor's work."

Ye Xiaoyang was very polite, which pleased Lampard very much. A Chinese overseas from the United States must have something special to come and visit him.

"Mr. Ye is a Chinese American from the United States. Are you planning to do something on Xiangjiang Island?"

Governor Lampard directly expressed his doubts. Ye Xiaoyang did not intend to hide them and said directly:

"Mr. Governor is a straightforward person, and I do have something to ask for when I visit him today.

The Ye family plans to transfer some of their businesses in San Francisco to Hong Kong Island. I hope the Hong Kong government can help.

I didn't expect that the person who came to invest was a wealthy sponsor. Governor Lampard didn't expect that the Ye family in San Francisco had this plan.

This is a great thing. He came to Hong Kong Island to be the governor, and of course he hopes that rich people will come to Hong Kong Island to invest.

Hong Kong became prosperous, and as the governor he not only gained fame but also profit. It can be said that he gained both fame and fortune.

"Mr. Ye, could you tell me approximately how much money the Ye family's businesses transferred to Hong Kong involve?"

"It's not much, probably a few hundred million dollars. In addition, the Ye family will set up an investment bank in Hong Kong."

When Lampard heard about the industry worth hundreds of millions of dollars, he immediately became excited.

How big is Hong Kong? With a population of less than a million, how many jobs can this industry, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, create?

How much tax revenue can it bring in? The Hong Kong government has money, and it is the biggest beneficiary.

Legally, he is the highest leader of the Hong Kong government.

Isn't the Ye family afraid of the mysterious team? No, the mysterious team is not a vicious group.

They target those who harm the Chinese people, and if you invest in Hong Kong, you may even be protected by them.

Before Ye Xiaoyang mentioned the transfer of industries, he thought the other party had something to ask of him, but he didn't expect that it would bring him wealth.

This is the financial sponsor, the favorite person of these politicians, and the person they are most willing to serve.

"Ye Xiaoyang, can you tell me what kind of business the Ye family will build in Hong Kong?"

"Mainly shipyards, machine tool factories, testing equipment factories, pharmaceutical factories, etc."

These industries need a lot of workers and even more technical engineers, but I am afraid Hong Kong will find it difficult to meet the requirements.

Suddenly I thought that this is a transfer project, which means that many people in San Francisco will immigrate to Hong Kong.

This is a good thing. Hong Kong's population has decreased by hundreds of thousands over the years under the rule of the Japanese Empire.

At its peak, the population was nearly 150 million. That damn Japanese Empire killed too many people.

If a region wants to prosper, it first needs a large population. Without population, where will the consumption come from?

Lampard certainly understands this principle.

"Mr. Ye, whichever plot of land in Hong Kong you like? I'll try to give you the best price."

"Thank you, Mr. Governor. The land was quietly purchased from the people of Hong Kong a year ago."

"Oh, where?"

"The area around Causeway Bay on the Hong Kong River covers a total area of ​​several dozen square kilometers.

The Ye family plans to build a residential area and a commercial street there."

Lampard didn't expect that the Ye family had already taken action and secretly stockpiled so much land.

It’s a pity that the Hong Kong government no longer has the ability to earn this money, but there’s nothing that can be done about it.
