Chapter 351 Earthshaking
"boom!"

Yin Zhaotang raised his right leg and kicked open the door of the tea room with such force that the top of the beam shook with fear. His momentum was so fierce that even Chang Shixiu, who was hiding in the compartment, was frightened.

Cai Dong sat cross-legged, with a cushion under him, smoking a cigarette, fiddling with blue and white porcelain with his hands, brewing hot tea, and said with full posture: "Young man, you are good at doing business, but you are not good at cultivating your energy."

"Come, have a cup of tea first."

Cai Dong used a bamboo cup holder to place a cup of freshly poured tea opposite him and raised his hand to invite him to drink.

Yin Zhaotang sniffed lightly, his eyes fell on the glass ashtray on the corner of the table, frowned, and said, "There is still a ghost in the room, catch it!"

Niu Qiang led three brothers into the tea room, kicked the door open, broke the lock and entered violently. After a brief pushing and struggling, they pulled Chang Shixiu out of the compartment.

At this time, Chang Shixiu's arms were held, his mouth was bleeding, and there was a fist mark on his left eye. He looked embarrassed and shouted angrily: "Shenxiantang, you dare to hit a senior inspector of the police department, tell your people to let go."

He did not open fire in resistance because he was sure that Lao Zhong was making a living on Hong Kong Island and would not dare to kill the police inspector.

Cai Dong had never expected that Shen Xian Tang, who had come to his door to kneel and beg for peace, would dare to touch his guest. He said angrily, "He really doesn't know how to live or die. He is so arrogant."

"Mr. Yin, when you visit someone, is it Lao Zhong's family tradition to disturb the host's guests? When distinguished guests come to visit, Lao She Cai will provide good wine and delicious food. When unworthy guests come to visit, Lao She Cai will provide guns and cannons to entertain them."

"Either release him or get out, your choice!"

Being able to control a large clan with over ten thousand people, Cai Dong is not a kind-hearted person.

Yin Zhaotang kicked the door open and forced his way into the room, twice provoking Cai Dong's bottom line. The only reason that allowed him to suppress his temper and continue the conversation was profit.

Niu Qiang held the confiscated Smithson & Wesson M13 in his left hand, handed over a certificate with his right hand, and reported in a low voice: "Boss, he is from the Political Department."

Yin Zhaotang took the certificate, memorized the name on it, and came to Cai Dong. Cai Dong felt oppressed, put down his teacup, and stood up to confront him.

Yin Zhaotang tapped his face with his ID card, his eyes ferocious, and said contemptuously: "Uncle Dong, what are you doing by colluding with people from the Political Department?"

"Selling ice is also selling out the country!"

Cai Dong remained calm and confident: "It's just business."

He had fully realized that the visitor had ill intentions and was not just pretending.

This is because, as long as there is a trace of intention for reconciliation, it is impossible to interpret the cooperation with the Political Department as treason.

Everyone in the underworld knows the truth that "if you don't weigh it, it won't weigh more than three taels, but if you weigh it, it will weigh more than a thousand gold". If they put things on the scale, it means they are not trying to settle the matter peacefully or cooperate to make money, but to make things bigger and break up with the old society.

But he was not afraid at all, because if you want to weigh some things, you have to be able to find someone who holds the scale.

Everyone knows which way the government gate faces, but when forced buying and selling, bullying and market domination occur, why don't the common people sue the officials?

The master doesn’t even eat a bowl of rice with the people!

"If everyone learns to do business like Uncle Dong, Hong Kong people and Chinese will have no chance to survive." Yin Zhaotang tapped Cai Dong's right cheek with his ID several times, then swung it away and slapped him hard in the face.

He was not tall to begin with, and he was caught off guard and fell to the ground, knocking over the coffee table.

Chang Shixiu was shocked: "Mr. Cai."

He must be well aware of Cai Dong's background in the mainland, otherwise, he would not have contacted Cai Dong on his own initiative and promised him to provide shipping and British passports, immigration for the whole family, offshore money laundering, etc.

Multi-dimensional, multi-faceted and multi-channel protection.

You know, when the Political Department first received the intelligence, it regarded Cai Dong as a spy.

Later, when they found that there was room for exploitation, they urgently formulated a plan, hoping to corrupt a group of senior officials from his hometown through Cai Dong.

This month, the Falklands War just ended victoriously. The Zuzu government feels deeply pressured by the world situation and is carefully preparing for the negotiations in Hong Kong.

The authorities hoped to use the momentum of victory in the war to intimidate their home turf, seize control of Hong Kong Island, and thereby control the Asian shipping center, barely maintaining the remaining corner of the empire's maritime territory.

Rumor has it that the first task of the "new prime minister" in September will be to initiate Sino-British negotiations and visit the north.

The relevant departments in Hong Kong Island have started to work at full capacity and gather intelligence.

The Political Department, as a department directly under the command of the Military Intelligence Department, is constantly lobbying powerful people, buying intelligence and bribing officials.

Especially in Guangdong Province, every piece of intelligence may affect the Sino-British negotiations.

During the critical period, Cai Dong could get a price much higher than usual. As a "businessman", he couldn't help but be greedy.

With Cai Dong's background, he couldn't even control a Shenxian Tang?

Shenxiantang is just a dog gnawing on bones, but Caidong is the farmhand of the dog owner!

Cai Dong failed to achieve his goal of using Shenxiantang to establish his authority, but Chang Shixiu was deeply impressed by Shenxiantang's arrogance and dominance.

Cai Dong leaned his elbows on the ground, his head held high. His elegant Mao suit was soaked by tea, and the collar of his white shirt was yellowed. He looked doubtful and surprised, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Yin, consider the consequences before doing anything. Touch me? Even Wu Xiang can't protect you! You think you are powerful, but you are still a gangster. In their eyes, you are exactly the same as me, there is no difference."

"Working with me, you will have more friends and it will be easier to make money."

Yin Zhaotang raised the Black Star, pressed it against Cai Dong's goose meat, and said coldly: "The difference between humans and ghosts is huge. In your next life, be a good person!"

Cai Dong's eyebrows jumped, his pupils couldn't help but dilate, and he shouted in surprise: "Mr. Yin, we can talk again, we are all family."

boom!
Yin Zhaotang pulled the trigger, a gunshot rang out, and the bullet directly penetrated Cai Dong's skull, blowing off several pieces of the back of his head, and blood splattered on the corners of clothes of everyone present.

Chang Shixiu's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. He said loudly, "Shenxiantang, you are crazy!"

Yin Zhaotang put the gun behind his waist, put his hands behind his back, walked in front of Chang Shixiu, and asked in a low voice: "Sir Chang, is Uncle Dong's skill in cultivating qi good?"

Niu Qiang tightly strangled Chang Shixiu's neck with his left hand, held the scimitar in his right hand, and pressed it against his throat. He exerted force with both hands and threatened in a low voice: "Sir, the boss is asking you a question!"

Chang Shixiu had trouble swallowing, his teeth chattered, and he stammered, "Great, great."

Yin Zhaotang nodded slightly and praised: "Very good, he won't move even if he is burned to ashes. Sir Chang, could you please help burn it?"

Chang Shixiu said: "Shenxiantang, you want me to help you destroy the body?"

Yin Zhaotang picked up the gun and slammed it on his head: "If you want to pick that star, I will do it myself and sink you into the sea with me!"

Chang Shixiu wailed and quickly agreed: "No problem, no problem, I'll do it."

Yin Zhaotang placed the gun on the table, lit a cigar, sat cross-legged on the floor, and said while smoking: "Okay, tell me, what kind of cooperation does the Political Department have with Cai Dong?"

Niu Qiang loosened his grip a little, allowing Chang Shixiu to catch his breath. He took a deep breath and answered haltingly, "No, we haven't cooperated yet. This is just the first contact."

Yin Zhaotang smiled, blew out the smoke, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Sir Chang, do you usually smoke Cohiba? I smelled a familiar smell when I just entered the room."

"I was in a hurry to hide, and put out most of the cigarette in the ashtray. Are you interested in picking it up and continuing to eat it?"

Chang Shixiu felt nauseous at the thought. The skin on his neck was torn by the knife, leaving a line of blood. The clear stinging pain reminded him all the time that he had to be obedient if he wanted to live.

"Yes, I promised to protect Cai Dong's shipment of goods. Cai Dong helped the Political Department bribe provincial officials to obtain political and military intelligence."

Yin Zhaotang sipped his cigar slowly, not too fast or too slow, and listened for more than ten minutes before he was satisfied. He stood up and said, "Thank you very much, Sir Chang."

"Hong Kong Island is not big, we will see each other soon." Niu Qiang received the look, put away his scimitar, threw Chang Shixiu to the ground, and led his men away with the boss.

Today, if I hadn't gone up the mountain late at night and happened to encounter the transaction between the Political Department and Cai Dong, no matter how angry I was, I would have had to control Cai Dong first.

The fastest way is to wait for President Liang to go north and produce results, and only after getting the nod from the top management can we get rid of Cai Dong.

But Cai Dongzhen was too arrogant. He stayed in Hong Kong Island and even dared to meet with the Political Department.

Is it because he lacks political acumen, or does he think that the emperor is far away and the Five Fingers Mountain cannot reach Lufeng County, or does he think that the backers behind him are more powerful than the sky?
A real country bumpkin.

It was a sensitive period, and he dared to get involved with the Political Department, which gave Yin Zhaotang an excuse to execute him first and report later, in the name of executing a traitor.

Bring an entire family, a village of over 10,000 people, making ice and selling drugs, turning every household into a kitchen.

Yin Zhaotang felt it was a sin to let such a person live one more day!
Lao Zhong's brothers came and went in a hurry. When they left Ngong Ping Village, they received an order to release all the police officers from the Special Branch who had been captured earlier.

The people in the Political Department are being dealt with now, as Lao Zhong is the one who is looking for trouble. This will easily lead to retaliation, which will not be worth the loss.

But the foreign military intelligence department has already taken action, so how could the people in the provincial security department just sit there and wait for death? In the game between the great powers, with back and forth, Hong Kong Island has become a chessboard, and the players from my hometown will definitely make their moves.

Pass on the information you received, attach evidence, and show your sincerity as a partner. As for the rest, you can act according to the circumstances and make plans accordingly.

The style of my hometown is to never accept losses and dare to cross the red line. History has proven that you will definitely be taught a lesson.

Lao Zhong kidnapped a few of Cai Dong's men, all of whom were members of the Cai family, and locked them up alive to be handed over to his superiors as witnesses.

More than half an hour later.

Chang Shixiu put down the shovel, picked up the suit hanging on the treetop, threw it over his shoulder, and left Lotus Peak with five subordinates.

It was a low-level operation, and the cooperation had not yet officially begun. At most, it could be considered a setback in the operation.

There were no casualties and it did not cause much impact on the Political Department. After the bodies were buried, everyone felt relieved.

Ngong Ping Village is far away from the Lantau Island police station, and the sound of gunshots would not reach the ears of the police.

After saying a few words to the temple's abbot, Monk Huiming, the mess will be cleaned up. Returning to the Political Department and filing a record, they will be exempt from responsibility if the body is found.

He is a drug dealer from the mainland, and no one cares about his life or death.

Being able to have a burial place on Lotus Peak is worthy of the two boxes of gold bars offered.

The next day, early in the morning.

Chang Shixiu searched for his ID in his suit pocket, but to no avail. Suddenly, he remembered the details of last night. His face stiffened, and he sat back on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and thought to himself, "I should have made preparations earlier."

The warning given by Shenxiantang before he left made people feel uneasy.

As he said, Hong Kong Island is not big, and who can sleep well when the enemies are alive and well?

Kai Tak Airport.

Liang Manping was wearing a suit, holding a briefcase in his right hand, and said solemnly, "Mr. Yin, no need to send me off. Keep your phone open and wait for my news."

The two military attachés from the big shrine were wearing cloth pants and black jackets. They were tall and strong, with flat heads and bulging clothes, and they were obviously wearing bulletproof vests.

Obviously, when returning to the country to report on work, it is not necessary for a military attaché to accompany you under normal circumstances.

In the terminal hall, Yin Zhaotang shook hands with him and said thank you, "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Ping."

Liang Manping straightened his buttons, looking energetic and not at all hungover, and said in a very serious tone: "I have a duty to fulfill, so I dare not delay. I'll talk about the past when I get back."

After saying that, Liang Manping turned and walked towards the boarding gate, taking a chartered flight straight to Beijing.

Holding the car door with his left hand, he bowed and said, "Boss."

"Causeway Bay is a mess."

Yin Zhaotang stepped into the Rolls-Royce, feeling relieved from the burden in his heart and looking much more relaxed.

Fat Cat was cleaning the altar with a rag, while Uncle Gensheng was sweeping the dust in the corner with a broom.

When Fat Cat heard the sound of the guy calling downstairs, he knew who was coming to the restaurant. After Yin Zhaotang went up to the attic, he saw Uncle Gensheng sweeping the floor and said with a smile, "Atang, come to work?"

"Yes, uncle."

Yin Zhaotang rolled up his sleeves, picked up a rag and joined the cleaning.

Fat Cat carefully wiped the tablets of the Five Ancestors of Hongmen and asked slowly, "Did you take the brothers to the Lotus Temple last night and deal with Cai Dong?"

Yin Zhaotang wiped the incense burner for Guan Erye with a focused look on his face. He replied casually, "Yes, and I also met a few friends from the Political Department."

"Political Department?"

Fat Cat was so surprised that he stopped and started chatting: "Cai Dong is actually cooperating with the Political Department. He is really playing both sides and taking advantage of everyone."

"Greed blinds one's mind, and one's appetite is too big!"

Yin Zhaotang still had some anger on his face, and he got angry when he mentioned it: "So, I couldn't stand him being too arrogant, so I shot him clean."

Fat Cat nodded: "It's clean and peaceful now. Bring more brothers with you when you go out recently. Although the old club is in Lufeng, we can't transfer many people to Hong Kong."

"But the boss asked you to bury him the first time he came to Hong Kong Island. Someone will definitely pay a large sum of money to buy your life."

"Whether someone picks up the phone or not is one thing, but we should pay more attention to safety."

Yin Zhaotang understood that Grandpa was concerned about him, and he felt relieved. He agreed in a gentle voice: "I understand, Grandpa."

Fat Cat put down the rag, grabbed the teapot, took two sips, and simply returned to the table to rest. He said cheerfully: "Young man, you have strength, so it's okay to do more, right?"

Last night, after the brothers at sea wiped out Lu Fengzai, they quickly climbed up the Lotus Peak and killed Cai Dong. In fact, Lao Zhong was already in an invincible position.

It’s nothing more than the final finishing touch, how much meat to cut and how much storm to endure.

No one would ignore the big Buddha statue in the Po Lin Monastery, but if our brothers don’t even want their lives, what does the Buddha mean to them?

I dare to cross the sea!
Fat Cat no longer worried about the old community. Yin Zhaotang wiped the statue of Guan Yu and agreed with a smile: "No problem, wash Guan Yu's body, good luck."

Beijing.

As Liang Manping's plane landed, a report went straight to the sky, causing the emperor to be furious, shaking the clouds in the sky, and under the clear sky.

Everyone looked up in fear, and through the clouds, they seemed to be able to see the thunder rolling behind them. A killing calamity was coming, and it was unstoppable.

"This is not an economic problem, it's not a criminal problem, it's a political problem!"

"The Political Department is a political department. To cooperate with others politically is to engage in political struggle with us!"

"We must fight, and fight thoroughly. We must investigate without leaving anyone out. We must issue a document and conduct a thorough investigation of the relevant personnel in Laoshe Village. I want to give an explanation to the patriotic businessmen who stick to the bottom line." - Speech at a meeting on June 1982, 6.
