Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

The next day, Huo Dong sent someone to deliver all the information about 14K and Yichao Gang in the Huo family's hands.

Compared to 14K, the Yichao Gang is more like a criminal gang that controls a considerable range of DP business in Hong Kong Island. No one knows who is behind it.

All we know is that Wu Xihao has been rapidly developing and consolidating his business in Hong Kong Island in recent years, and has become the leader of the Hong Kong Island DP market almost overnight.

But according to the information of the Huo family, this person has an unclear relationship with Lui Lok, the leader of the four major detectives, and his rise to power is precisely the territory that Lui Lok has been in for a few years. Most of the members of his organization are street thugs, and only a group of less than 50 elite brothers are the core of the Yichao Gang.

The 14K is a much more tightly organized group. Its predecessor was the Zhongyitang of the Hongmen. After Ge Zhaohuang's reorganization, it developed rapidly with the support of the remnants of the mainland and the bald heads, forming 36 gangs with the "filial piety" gang as the core. There are now nearly to gang members, making it the leader of the underground gangs in Hong Kong Island.

Zhang Renkang had a headache, especially the huge number of 14K people.

The Yichao Gang is easy to deal with. As long as Wu Xihao is dealt with, the Yichao Gang will be leaderless and will fall apart immediately.

Rather than calling these people gangsters, it is better to call them reckless desperadoes. They are not a big deal.

But the most troublesome thing is the strict organization, the huge 14K is difficult to handle

More importantly, it is difficult for Xinhua Automobile Group and 14K to make peace. After all, Xinhua Automobile Group is an organization sent by the mainland to Hong Kong Island, representing the extension of mainland power, while 14K is an underground gang created by Baldhead for counterattack. There is a natural basis for struggle between the two sides.

Zhang Tingan's scalp tingled as he watched, and he said with a wry smile

“Is this Hong Kong Island owned by the Hong Kong Island government or the gangs?”

"I really doubt how John has managed it for so many years. These are not just a few hundred bandits."

"Eighty thousand people, even eighty thousand pigs can take down Hong Kong Island, right?"

Zhang Tingan could not understand how the Hong Kong government could allow the gangs to grow to this extent. After all, the first thing we did after the founding of the People's Republic of China was to suppress bandits across the country and completely eradicate the bandits and underworld forces that had plagued the country for thousands of years.

Zhang Renkang snorted and said

"What's weird about this"

"Old Zhang, you haven't been to the living quarters of the small residents of Hong Kong Island, have you?"

"If you go and have a look, what we see are tall buildings and brightly lit prosperity."

"But for the vast majority of Hong Kong Island residents, it is just a difficult place to survive."

“Don’t even mention 80,000 gangsters, even if it’s 100,000 or 200,000, is that weird?”

"How much better was the city of Hong Kong back then than Hong Kong Island?"

"What John wants is for this place to become a bridgehead to contain the mainland, or a colony for exploiting resources on the mainland, not to develop Hong Kong Island."

"They only manage the wealthy areas, commercial areas, ports, factories, and other places that are profitable and can provide blood supply to the local area."

"As for the common people, they are all pariahs in the eyes of others, and even their death is not worth even a glance."

"Can they devote police force and resources there?"

Zhang Ting'an nodded and sighed. He did not conduct in-depth investigations at the grassroots level after arriving in Hong Kong Island, so he was not very clear about the real living conditions of Hong Kong Island residents.

But it did not prevent him from understanding Zhang Renkang's meaning

The Hong Kong government is nothing more than a tool and glove for John's rule.

In Hong Kong Island, John's people firstly regard Hong Kong Island as a centralized place to contain the mainland and collect intelligence, and secondly, they exploit Hong Kong Island's wealth to provide blood supply to John's homeland.

As for developing Hong Kong Island and providing good living conditions for its residents, John has no intention of doing so.

Therefore, it is conceivable that in most residential areas, police force and resources are seriously insufficient, and the ability to maintain social order is also poor, which naturally provides fertile ground for the growth of evil forces.

The lack of government power is naturally replaced by these gangs. The gangs take the place of the government to maintain street stability, but the premise is that citizens must provide protection fees.

After the triads took over the Hong Kong government and became a force for social stability, they provided a low-cost ruling solution, which in turn was accepted by the Johns.

After all, it is beneficial for John to maintain a relatively stable situation without spending a penny.

This also resulted in most children from slums and poor areas choosing to join gangs when they grow up, becoming the backup force for gangs, which directly promoted the continuous growth of gang forces.

Otherwise, where did the 14 or people in K come from?

Not all of these people are unemployed social thugs. Many of them may look like street vendors, convenience store owners, restaurant waiters, or even cleaners who sweep the floor. They are all people who start serving and working for the gangs after taking off their work clothes at night.

"Renkang, what are you going to do?"

"We definitely cannot afford to clash with them directly"

"But if we continue to be harassed by these people, it will be difficult for us to continue our business development in Hong Kong Island."

Zhang Renkang nodded, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, stood up and snorted coldly.

"Even if we want to compromise, these people won't let go easily"

"I suspect this is not an isolated incident. It is very likely a move by the other side to remotely control and sabotage our external development."

"Don't forget that our transport captain was born a gangster. It's no wonder he likes to use these dirty tricks."

“Nothing to worry about”

"It is now clear to everyone with eyes that our development and growth is unstoppable."

"No matter how unwilling he is, he will have to die in a foreign land."

"I just don't believe that these 14K leaders who are now dominating Hong Kong Island are really willing to risk their lives to fight the bald guy."

"Aren't they afraid of being liquidated in the future?"

Zhang Tingan nodded and laughed

"Renkang, Renkang"

"I just realized that the organization was right in making you the first person in charge."

"Everyone is worried about you, except you."

“I am convinced.”

"You may look young, but you have a longer-term vision than us old guys, and you have the courage to brave any danger."

"Yes, they are just a few young hooligans, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"If they piss us off, we can just file a petition to get back."

"I just can't believe that our invincible army can't deal with a few hooligans."

"Send a security team to Hong Kong to teach them a lesson"

Zhang Renkang was amused by Zhang Ting'an's gnashing teeth and shook his head.

"That's not necessary, we are here to do business"

"I'm not here to compete with the gangs for territory."

"The gangs in Hong Kong are very complex, and 14K is not the only one in power. Besides, the people of Hong Kong can tolerate them replacing some government functions to a certain extent."

"But the John people will never tolerate their attempt to challenge the John people's rule."

"These people are capable of nothing more than street fights and assassinations."

"If there is social unrest and business closures in Hong Kong, we won't be the ones worried."

"I'll take care of this matter."

"You should calm down the emotions of your comrades and do a good job in ideological work."

Zhang Ting'an nodded. His job was mainly to maintain the team's ideological construction. Since Zhang Renkang already had an idea, Zhang Ting'an just had to cooperate.
