"Lord Zhuang."
"Here's to you."
"Thank you for your support to the villagers."
In Lu's ancestral hall.
The leader of the lion team held a wine glass in both hands. Eight members of the lion team stood in a row behind him, all holding a wine glass and smiling.
The lion team leader bent down to propose a toast and put the mouth of the cup very low. Zhuang Sir sat in the host and guest seats of the main table with a smile, raised his glass and clinked it gently with him.
"Ah." The old Dalian of the lion team drank up the wine glass in a hurry, and all the remaining members of the lion team raised their glasses to drink. Zhuang Sir took a sip of wine, put down the wine glass and cast a wink at May.
"Take these." May opens the white leather bag and takes out a stack of ten thousand yuan red envelopes already prepared.
"Thank you, madam." The leader of the lion team didn't dare to look at may more. He quickly put away the red envelope and said thank you. Immediately, the members of the lion team standing behind him also said thank you: "thank you, madam, thank you, Master Zhuang."
Zhuang Shikai nodded and immediately continued to pick up chopsticks to eat and chat with Lu Hantao. May smiled and waved to them, saying that she didn't need to thank them and didn't say anything more to them.
They stand at the main table with only one space, and a team can only line up in a row. If Zhuang Shikai hadn't begun to appreciate them today, they wouldn't even be qualified to be close to the main table.
The lion dance is so good that you can get close to the noble people!
But there are no other opportunities, and that's the end of it.
After the lion dance, a water mat was opened in Lu's ancestral hall. Those who can sit close to the ancestral hall are people of some identity, or close relatives of their own lineage, and those who can sit on the main table are Lu Hantao and other village heads in the new territories.
They hold Zhuang Sir in the hands of the stars and the moon, and others don't even have the chance to propose a toast. The lion dance team has been envied by everyone for talking to Zhuang sir.
The lion dance boss knew the rules of the world very well. After getting the red envelope, he didn't say a word and took his brothers away from the main table. Return to their position, sit down and give the red envelopes to the brothers.
There is a kind of intelligence in the world called self-knowledge.
Villagers don't necessarily know the law, but they often know the rules very well.
Know not to do unrealistic delusions.
"Brother Quan, brother Fu and Yongyu, let's go and have a toast to Zhuang sir?" At this time, at a table in the corner of the ancestral hall, seven or eight big boys aged 15 or 16 were sitting in chairs. One of the simple looking children raised his glass and shouted eagerly.
These children are Lu's direct descendants, including Lu Hantao's daughter and Lu Hantao's brother's children, called Lu Yongyu, Lu Yongfu, Lu Yongquan and so on
They are all cousins and the children of Lu's next generation.
These little boys are from a good family background and have a higher natural status than many Lu villagers. They can sit directly in the ancestral hall without going outside to have a banquet.
They have virtually formed a small circle.
Encouraged by Lu Jianbo, all the children shouted with wine glasses: "good, good!"
"Let's have a toast to Master Zhuang."
"It's said that Master Zhuang was very powerful when he was young. A baton knocked over eight streets in Causeway Bay! It's called Causeway Bay! It's much more powerful than the pretty boy who carries the handle now! "
"Let's ask him how to play with a stick! Say hello, go back to school and blow water with your classmates! "
The children talked more and more vigorously, shouting with wine glasses and stood up.
And their thinking is very jumping off. The main purpose is not to have a relationship with Zhuang sir, but to collect water blowing materials among students.
At this time, as a big man, Lu Jinqiang sat in his position, immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed Lu Jianbo's wrist, frowned and shouted to his brothers, "don't go!"
Lu Jianbo and others looked back at the boss.
Lu Jinqiang said solemnly, "don't hinder uncle a from chatting with Master Zhuang! Don't you see who's sitting at the main table? "
"Be careful to be beaten by Uncle ah!"
Lu Jinqiang is the oldest and most sensible. He was a big man among the younger generation. He stretched out his hand and grabbed several little children. The little children didn't dare to refuse at all. Moreover, they were scared when they heard the word "Uncle".
So they all sat down and ate obediently. Zhuang Si r didn't notice them at all, but they often secretly aimed at Zhuang Sir's direction, and their eyes were full of longing.
One of the postgraduates who is not qualified to enter the ancestral hall is the most yearning.
However, he knew how to lie on the gate of the ancestral hall and shout "Yongyu" to catch dragonflies.
That's a good move!
After eating the banquet, Zhuang Shikai left Lu's family early with may before the banquet was over.
During the new year, he went not only to Lu's countryside, but also to Kowloon and outlying islands. However, he only went to the countryside on the seventh day of the lunar new year. After the seventh day of the lunar new year, he took a boat across the sea and went to Baodao for temporary residence.
In addition to staying with rose, he also went to pay New Year's greetings to Luo Ge. They got drunk in their villa in Taipei and were helped back to their rooms by women. It was another big war.
Zhuang Sir was concerned about TSMC. He learned that TSMC had no problems and had been put into R & D and production.
The rest of the time is basically with roses.
There's no way, "Rose" has been thinking since knowing that may is pregnant. Her two long legs wrap around Zhuang Sir's waist every day, lie down in Zhuang Sir's ear and lick and say "want...".
She shows that she is unwilling to fall behind others and wants to carry out the human creation movement!
the second day.
morning.
Rose came out of the kitchen with a breakfast and put it in the dining room of Kenting villa.
Zhuang Shikai just washed up and went downstairs in his nightgown.
When he sat at the table and picked up the fork, he immediately showed surprise: "do you want to exaggerate?"
"Give me oysters in the morning?"
Rose stood by with a glass of milk and said with a frown: "I'll mend your body..."
Zhuang Shikai forked up some oysters and threw them into his mouth. He laughed and said, "what do you mean?"
"You screamed so badly last night, and I deliberately stopped! But you baked me oysters? You don't want to live at night? "
"That's not what I mean..."
"I don't care what you mean! Go and get me some raw eggs! "
Zhuang Shikai waved his big hand, rose skimmed her mouth, turned and went to fetch some eggs, and helped Zhuang Sir knock and fill a straight cup.
"No! Here you are! " Rose handed the cup to Zhuang Shikai. Zhuang Shikai took the cup, raised his head, drank it, and then put the cup on the table.
He has finished his breakfast.
He said angrily, "Why are you more fierce than me recently?"
"People miss you..." at the moment, the "first sister of the club", who is famous in both places, gently shook his arm and played coquettish. Zhuang Sir trembled all over and quickly took the milk next to him to cover his face and drink it.
This woman is really old enough to be "like a wolf like a tiger"! If Zhuang Shikai hadn't been a little more physically fit, he really couldn't have been done like this!
However, roses do play more and more.
Charm is also more attractive.
At this time, Zhuang Shikai put down the milk cup. Rose suddenly remembered something serious and asked in a serious tone: "Shikai, I heard that the Macao government will put another gambling card recently..."
"Do you want to win that bet?" Zhuang Shikai raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Gambling" is the license to legally open casinos in Macao. Due to the bidding issued by the Macao government, the bidding requirements and amount are extremely huge, which involves many contacts and the struggle of various forces.
After all, "gambling" is the largest cake in Macao. As long as you get "gambling cards", you can share a piece of cake. How big is the Hong Kong Island of "gambling"? What is the potential of Macao?
Zhuang Sir is also interested in this.
The rose nodded and said, "yes!"
"My business in Baodao is not big. My annual income is only tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars."
"But gambling is different... The gambling industry in Macao is also doing business. If I get this gambling card, I will become a number of rich women in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan... But there are some difficulties."
"It's a rare opportunity. I'm going to try."
Zhuang Shikai fell into thinking and nodded slightly: "yes! I have some relationship in Macao! Say hello, sir! "
"Whether he wants it or not, face will always be given to me!"
"If you have any more trouble, come to me and I'll help you solve it!"
Macao opened the gambling industry in 1847 and announced that the gambling industry was carried out legally, but it was named "gambling industry" to reap the economy of East Asia.
Of course, during this period, there was mutual benefit between the government and the Australian people, and many welfare policies were given to the Australian people.
However, at the beginning of the gambling industry, the management was chaotic, all kinds of gambling stalls were lack of supervision, and there were tax problems. In short, there were "no rules".
So in the 1990s and 1950s, Macao began to implement the franchise system for the gambling industry.
The government issues licences to businessmen through bidding. Only companies licensed by the government can operate on behalf of the government.
This license plate is called "gambling".
In 1962, the person who won the first degree card of "Mr. He" in Macao once monopolized the gambling industry in Macao, and the Jianghu was called the "gambling king".
At this time, Macao has become a "gambling port"! All kinds of gambling stalls and casinos in Macao are essentially subsidiaries of "Lisboa"! Because there is only one gambling card in Macao!
Then a license was issued in the 1970s. At present, there are two gambling cards in Macao. In the 1980s, Macao is finally going to issue the third gambling card!
Since "Rose" wants to make this gambling card, Zhuang Sir will have to mix it up. At that time, whether Mr. He and Mr. Ye want to give face or not! This face must be given!
This island called "Macau" has another name - Haojiang!
A name that exists only in the coastal Chinese population.
"Thank you, husband." With a sweet smile, Rose came forward and kissed Zhuang Sir on the cheek, and the whole thing stuck to Zhuang Sir again. Zhuang Sir wiped off his lipstick somewhat wrongfully, looked at her and asked, "come again? Just woke up! "
"Waking up is the same as before going to bed! Aren't you just full? " The rose blinked and smiled.
……
The fifteenth day of the first month.
The police leave is over.
The smell of the new year gradually dissipated.
People are getting busy.
Some people want to work hard for life, others want to weigh the pros and cons of politics, and others are ready to do great things.
Zhuang Shikai returned to Hong Kong Island, dressed in a suit and drove to work.
When he approached the Wan Chai police station, the police officers and men greeted him one after another.
"Zhuang Sir morning!"
"Good morning!"
“goodmorning,sir。”
Zhuang Shikai smiled and nodded all the way, took the elevator back to the office and sat down.
"Ah! A new year has begun! " He opened his arms and looked out at the sun with a smile in his eyes.
At the same time, Lu Minghua, Yang Jinrong, Zeng Xiangrong and others in the general administration building also returned to their offices, opened their chairs and put away their briefcases.
Lu Minghua just sat down and didn't even sit hot. He picked up the phone and called Yang Jinrong and said, "a Rong, get ready to do something."
“yes,sir!” Yang Jinrong put down the phone, raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, with a burst of determination in his eyes!
