"Thank you, Huo Sheng. ”

Chen Yanxin took the teacup handed over by Huo Yaowen, thanked him, blew on the steaming tea, and took a slight sip.

Fok Yiuwen said: "The refreshments in this Lianxiang House taste great, it can be said that it is the top three tea houses in Hong Kong, Councilor Chen, you can try it." ”

"Lu Yu Teahouse, Lianxiang Building, Fengcheng, the best refreshments in Hong Kong are all in these three. Chen Yanxin knew at a glance that he was an old diner, and he could be said to be clear about delicious restaurants.

Huo Yaowen smiled: "Haha, it seems that Councilor Chen is also an old glutton." It's a pity that Lu Yu Tea Room and Fengcheng are both on Hong Kong Island, and this Lianxiang House is also a branch, so I always feel that the taste is not as good as the main store. ”

Chen Yanxin nodded and said, "Yes, what Mr. Huo said is very right. The taste of the refreshments in this Lianxiang House is almost the same as that of the main store, and ordinary people can't taste the small differences. ”

Huo Yaowen said: "It seems that my mouth is quite good, I have tasted it......"

Chen Yanxin shook his head: "It's not that it's a mouthful, but Mr. Huo knows a lot about food." I know a friend who is very particular about eating. He has tasted Hong Kong's delicacies, both large and small, from well-known restaurants and teahouses to street vendors hidden in the alleys. It was also from him that I learned that the branch of Lianxianglou has a weak taste and the main store. ”

"Oh, then there will be a chance that Councillor Chen will introduce your friend to me, and I like to eat it too. ”

The two of them talked and laughed and began to taste the delicious refreshments on the table.

After some greetings, Huo Yaowen picked up the clean towel on the table and wiped his mouth, took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, and caught a glimpse of Chen Yanxin's food, so he said slowly: "Mr. Chen, you should know that the place where my JP belongs is in our Kowloon Tong, and I don't know much about the responsibilities of JP, so Mr. Chen will tell me more about it in the future." ”

Chen Yanxin looked up at Huo Yaowen, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said: "Mr. Huo, you may not know, in fact, the responsibilities of JP are different from before, and at the beginning of this month, the governor issued a new JP decree, no longer allowing JP to assist in managing the subordinate places, and there is no need to go to the court once a month to be a magistrate." ”

Huo Yaowen was stunned, he didn't expect that the duties of a Justice of the Peace had actually changed, and when he thought that Chen Yanxin said that he had changed it at the beginning of this month, he came to a trance, he was still in the UK at that time, and it was normal not to know about this matter.

Huo Yaowen said: "I'm sorry Mr. Chen, I went to the UK at the beginning of the month, but I didn't expect that the responsibilities of JP would be changed when I came back. ”

Chen Yanxin said: "Actually, if you don't change, JP's responsibilities will not be much. In addition to the duties of no longer serving as interim magistrates in the courts, the Act amended at the beginning of the month has an additional provision, that is, to inspect prisons and other detention institutions, receive complaints from detainees, and avoid the Correctional Services Department imposing penalties on detainees other than those sentenced by court. ”

Well, it's a lot more complicated than going to court and being a magistrate.

After chatting about JP, Fok Yiu-man asked: "Mr. Chan doesn't know if you know Superintendent Yan of the Kowloon Tong Police Station, there have been thieves in the old street of Song and ...... recently."

Huo Yaowen asked Chen Yanxin to come out for tea, for two purposes, one is to get acquainted with him, so that in the future, when he is acting as a JP, he can also have someone to help, and the other is that Huo Chengcai said that there was a theft near his home two days ago.

After hearing this, Chen Yanxin said: "This matter is simple, I will call Superintendent Yan when I go back later, and ask him to send more uniformed police to patrol near Gehe Old Street on weekdays to ensure the daily life and stable law and order of local citizens." ”

Huo Yaowen said with a smile: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Chen on behalf of the dozens of households in Gehe Old Street, if these residents know that Councilor Chen of the Municipal Affairs Bureau is so dedicated to their sake, they must be moved, and they must wish that a good councilor like Mr. Chen would stay in Kowloon Tong." ”

Chen Yanxin couldn't hear the meaning of these words, the main purpose of his coming to the appointment this time was to hope that when the election was re-elected at the end of this year, Huo Yaowen would be able to say a few good words for him in the newspaper or publicly, and he got a reply at this time, and immediately said happily: "Everywhere, it is for the sake of the citizens living in Kowloon Tong, Mr. Huo, don't worry, when I go back, I will immediately call Superintendent Yan to ensure that there are police officers patrolling Gehe Old Street every day." ”

I have to say that Chen Yanxin is still very efficient in doing things, and when Huo Yaowen drove out early the next morning, he found that the two-person uniformed policeman walked by the road from time to time, and turned out of the song and the old street to the avenue, and a police car could be seen whizzing by.

This is also thanks to the villa area in Kowloon Tong, where a group of people who are either rich or noble, and Fok Yiu-man, a Justice of the Peace, speaks, otherwise Chen Yanxin may not be able to command the people of the police station, after all, he is only a district councilor of the Municipal Affairs Bureau.

...

Kyushu Magazine.

Although the price of the third issue of Kyushu magazine remained the same as before, the weekly magazine added three more pages to the original number of pages, all of which were illustrations of important characters that appeared in the magazine.

"It's a pretty good drawing!" Huo Yaowen couldn't help but admire the seven or eight original pictures of the characters in his hand.

These original pictures of the characters fit the image in the book, just like the first character in the last vote, the portrait of the king of Liangzhou who swore to die in the south of Yongzhen, although the plot has not yet written about him, but the painter combined with the description of Chen Fan and others, the king of Liangzhou is painted vividly, and the momentum of the world and the Nanban can be said to be vividly displayed.

As for the second and third place swordsmen in the vote, Li Chungang, and the Xiongba, who has the title of 10,000 slaughters, the sword rain that spreads all over the sky, and the thousands of corpses piled up at his feet, are also very well drawn.

It's not at all like the comic style in Hong Kong today.

Lin Xiaotang listened to the chairman's praise, and said with joy on his face: "Chairman, I found several painters again, let them paint many times, and finally settled on this style that is different from the current Hong Kong comics, I asked Mr. Chen and Mr. Zhang, and they all said that these paintings are very good, and they perfectly show the style of the characters in the book." ”

At this time, Hong Kong called comic books, which were called doll books, because they were all drawn for children, and adults never read them. Even the recently popular "Little Rascal", its painting style is still the kind of miserable and extremely simple lines.

So when Huo Yaowen saw this very mature comic style, he couldn't help but boast: "Well, it's good, this style of illustration is very good." ”

Lin Xiaotang hesitated for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Chairman, I hired these painters and set up an art department, and in the future, the art layout or illustration of the magazine will be handed over to them to be responsible." ”

"No problem. Huo Yaowen glanced at Lin Xiaotang, who was a little nervous, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Editor-in-chief Lin, although you are only the editor-in-chief of the magazine, you have no doubt about the power and editor-in-chief, so you don't need to report these trivial matters to me." ”

"Yes, I know the chairman. Lin Xiaotang smiled and nodded in response.

"When will it be printed?"

"I'm already in the formatting and ready to send it for printing this evening. ”

After chatting with Lin Xiaotang for a while about the recent sales of the weekly magazine and the basic situation of the magazine, Huo Yaowen sat down and looked at the content of the second and third issues.

When he found out in the second issue, he went to the United Kingdom, and then he didn't have a chance to see it when he returned to Hong Kong, so he went straight to the United States.

At a glance and ten lines, I simply glanced at the second issue of "Kyushu" magazine, in general, the characters and plots in it are not much different from the outline, because the plot printed at this time is still based on Zhang Xiaofan, who is mainly written by Chen Fan, so the overall style is still the same, there are probably two more issues to be issued, and when Zhang Xiaofan's story is temporarily over, Zhang Meng's story of Li Chungang, which is still writing, will be on top.

Although it may sound a little confusing, it is easy to understand how the reader can follow the words from beginning to end. Even if you enter the pit halfway.,Just look at the collection later.。

"Knock Knock"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door.

Huo Yaowen glanced up at Lin Xiaotang, who was sitting on the main seat, and only heard him: "Come in." ”

Kuang Dongyuan pushed the door in, strode to the desk, put a few drawings in his hand on the table and said, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, this is the newly revised illustration of our art department, please take a look." ”

"Well, got it. Lin Xiaotang nodded, picked up a few sketches and hurriedly glanced at them, then handed them to Huo Yaowen in front of him, and said: "Chairman, this is the fourth, fifth and sixth character illustrations, I considered that after the release of the third issue, there may be readers who insist on voting for these characters, so I asked the people from the art department to draw them first." ”

After taking these illustrations, the style of painting is still the same, because Huo Yaowen participated in the discussion throughout the plot, and he recognized these three images at a glance as "Demon King White Fox", "Xuanyuan Descendant Tuoba Ye", and "Yin and Yang Family Zou Zi's Gao Disciple Donghuang Taiyi".

The three illustrations are very good, the ancient style is fluttering, Huo Yaowen couldn't help but look at Kuang Dongyuan, who was also curious in front of him, and asked, "This is what you painted?"

"It's not all the chairman of the board of directors who painted by me, but I conceived it with a few colleagues from the art department. Kuang Dongyuan hadn't noticed who was sitting next to him before, and it wasn't until Lin Xiaotang called the chairman just now that he saw clearly that this person was Huo Yaowen, the founding boss of Kyushu Magazine.

Speaking of which, when Kuang Dongyuan joined the company, when he heard that the boss of "Kyushu" was Huo Yaowen, he was not to mention how jealous and envious he was, in terms of the two being the same age, he was still two years older than Huo Yaowen, but one had already been famous in Hong Kong, and the other was just hovering on the edge of food and clothing.

If it weren't for Lin Xiaotang's invitation to serve as the editor-in-chief of the art department this time, not only would he have a formal job, but he would also be a small official, I'm afraid Kuang Dongyuan would have been a small chief writer in other people's comic newspapers.

Lin Xiaotang then remembered to introduce: "Chairman, this is Kuang Dongyuan, the new editor-in-chief of the art department, but we have always called him by the pen name Shangguan Xiaobao. ”
