Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 138 #0137

When the night gradually falls, North Cape begins to turn into a bright pearl.

The Lichi Nightclub began to sing and laugh, and the Bobo Song and Dance Hall, which opened today, also began to welcome the guests.

At the entrance of the Lichi Nightclub, a middle-aged ghost dressed like a "godfather" with a big back, wearing a black suit and white shirt, a black tie around his neck, and a white scarf. With one hand in his trouser pocket and the other holding a thick cigar, he squinted at the Bobo Song and Dance Hall opposite.

Standing beside him were three men in neat suits, waiting in full force, waiting for the ghost to issue orders.

"How long do you think this dance hall can last?" Gui Lao said in fluent Cantonese.

"Reporting to Mr. Wen, it seems that it can last for a while."

"Really? Open the ballroom opposite our Lichi. I really don't know if the third young master of the Xu family is out of his mind. Is he looking down on me, Wen Zelton, or the Li family behind me!" He exhaled a puff of smoke, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.

"I heard that the third young master of the Xu family is a playboy, I'm afraid I don't know the pros and cons of it."

"I don't know? Then I'll take his father's place and teach him how to behave!" Wenzelton sneered, pointing at the Bobo Song and Dance Hall with a cigar between his fingers. A big gift!"

...

The entrance of Bobo Song and Dance Hall.

Because it was the first time the ballroom opened, Xu Shixun basically invited relatives and friends, as well as acquaintances who had dealt with in the mall.

As the second shopkeeper of the ballroom, Shi Zhijian had to stand with Xu Shixun to welcome the guests.

"Hello, Brother Fang is here, and the succulent is shining!"

"Hello, Councilor Lu is here, we are honored!"

Xu Shixun kept saying polite words, and Shi Zhijian was exhausted for him.

Among these well-dressed guests, Shi Zhijian also knew a few, such as Williams, the HR manager of HSBC, Zhang Jiuding, a big boss of Hong Yihai in Hong Kong, and even Shi Zhijian's deadly enemy, Dai Fengni, the female boss of Yongkang Food Company.

Shi Zhijian was obviously taken aback when he saw Dai Fengni.

Xu Shixun whispered beside him: "No way, my drinks are also supplied by her company!"

Dai Fengni didn't seem to expect that Shi Zhijian would appear here, with a haughty attitude, she sneered coldly: "I heard that Boss Shi and the third young master have a good relationship, I didn't expect to see you here!"

Xu Shixun knew that she and Shi Zhijian were not on the right track, so he came up to smooth things over: "Miss Dai, save face first! A Jian is my friend, and tonight is my ballroom opening, so everyone is calm!"

"Okay, save face for the third young master! Master Su, A Biao, let's go in!" After Dai Fengni finished speaking, she gave Shi Zhijian a blank look, and led her subordinates Su and Chen Biao into the ballroom.

After Dai Fengni and others went in, Xu Shixun pulled Shi Zhijian and whispered: "Hey, the ballroom opens tonight, good luck, you must not start a war with that crazy woman!"

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't have loyalty! Besides, a good man doesn't fight with a woman, even if he fights, he fights on the bed!"

Xu Shixun laughed: "Dai Fengni, you can't handle it! Don't look at her beautiful, and she has a natural body fragrance that confuses all beings, but she doesn't like boys!"

Shi Zhijian shrugged: "I'm just talking casually."

Xu Shixun patted him on the shoulder: "It's best, don't think too much!"

Shi Zhijian wondered instead: "But I heard something in your words, San Shao, did you chase after this Dai before?"

Xu Shixun didn't hide anything: "Beauties, everyone likes them, not to mention that the Dai family can be regarded as a big and prestigious family in Hong Kong. It's a pity that most people who pursue Dai Fengni are teased by her. I'm better, but she let the pigeons go on my birthday, silly A cold wind blew all night on the top of Victoria Peak."

Shi Zhijian smiled and praised: "Unexpectedly, Third Young Master, you are also a kind of love!"

"I love you, I'm picking up the guests!"

After all, Xu Shixun is the third young master of the Xu family, and many prominent figures in Hong Kong came to support him. Even if you don't have time to come, you will still send flower baskets, kumquats, and fortune trees.

Among them, Xu Shixun's eldest brother, Xu Shijian, asked Zeng Wenju to send the largest flower basket, which read: "Congratulations to the opening of the third brother's ballroom! Make great achievements and make money every day!"

Regardless of whether the congratulations were true or not, it completely showed a big brother's love for his younger brother.

In addition, Xu Shixun's second brother Xu Shiwen also sent a congratulatory gift, but it was a new motorcycle.

Such an affordable gift opened everyone's eyes. Only Xu Shixun couldn't laugh or cry, and said to Shi Zhijian: "My second brother is acting like a demon again. Last time I celebrated my birthday, he just stuffed a foreign girl in my room, and stuffed it with no clothes on. Under the covers, I was so scared that I dared not go home for three days!"

In the words, Shi Zhijian could tell that Xu Sanshao and his second brother seemed to have a good relationship, at least the two seemed to be in harmony.

In addition to Xu's family, Chief Inspector Lei Luo of Zonghua, Chief Inspector Yan Xiong and others whom Shi Zhijian knew also presented congratulatory gifts one after another.

Lei Luo is currently busy with an important position, so he didn't come over in person, instead he asked Chief Inspector Yan Xiong to help bring the gift, but it was a flower basket.

It's just that the flowers on the flower basket are all roses folded with thousands of Hong Kong dollars, and a basket is at least 50,000!

Yan Xiong's was also ingenious, he gave a money tree, and the money tree was covered with gold and copper coins, all made of ninety-nine pure gold, and it looked like it was worth at least 30,000.

Yan Xiong delivered the gift instead of Lei Luo, which shows that the relationship between him and Lei Luo has entered the "honeymoon period" from "enemies".

And the biggest contributor to this is undoubtedly Shi Zhijian.

So after Yan Xiong greeted Xu Shixun, he took the initiative to greet Shi Zhijian.

"Ajian, I didn't expect to see you here tonight!"

"Yeah, Brother Luo didn't come?"

"He's too busy, ask me to bring the gift!"

"In that case, why don't you go in and sit down first!"

Shi Zhijian didn't bother to continue to stand at the door to accompany Xu Shixun to receive guests, so he took the inspector Yan Xiong to walk into the ballroom with an excuse.

Xu Shixun didn't see Shi Zhijian when he turned his head, and said, "I'm being lazy again! Hey, it's really difficult for me to be a shopkeeper!"

...

The interior of the ballroom is even more magnificent than the exterior.

The huge crystal chandelier, the bright marble floor, the bar tables and chairs specially ordered from abroad, and the well-built circular stage all give people a refreshing and luxurious feeling.

Looking at those guests who are clearly separated, those from the business world gather together, and those from the political circle gather together. People from associations like Hong Yihai and Zhang Jiuding are very lonely.

Zhang Jiuding seemed very helpless. He didn't really want to participate in this kind of opening ceremony, but the Xu family was their Hong Yihai's big water pipe. In the past, he was often taken care of by the old man of the Xu family. Jiuding had the cheek to come over to congratulate the opening.

After coming, Zhang Jiuding regretted it even more, because Xu Shixun didn't invite too many people from the world this time, because there were media reporters present at the opening tonight, and Xu Shixun wanted to promote the ballroom, so inviting too many community figures would have a bad effect.

Those who were smarter gave the opening ceremony secretly, but no one arrived.

Some gave gifts and made phone calls, which can be regarded as giving Xu Shixun enough favor and face.

Only Zhang Jiuding was stupid, he was too old to keep up with the trend of the times, and he still thought that being a man should be loyal and he was there in person.

At this time, Zhang Jiuding was sitting alone in a remote seat, surrounded by singing and laughing, and everyone chatting wantonly, only he, a bad old man, was drinking wine in an inappropriate way, looking around from time to time, looking very embarrassed.

Shi Zhijian took Yan Xiong straight to Zhang Jiuding, walked up to him, and said hello, "Master Ding, is there anyone here? Can Inspector Yan and I sit down?"

Zhang Jiuding was feeling embarrassed because of being isolated. He didn't expect Shi Zhijian to say hello and sit with him. He was moved for a moment, and hurriedly got up and said, "No one! Of course!"
