After a lapse of five months, Lu Li and Xu Yunjian stood on the streets of Causeway Bay in Hong Kong again, looking at the endless flow of people around them, Xu Yunjian leaned a little closer to him, "Xiaoxiao, where are we going next?" ”

"Let's go to Mr. Zhang's lawyer's office first. It's not far from here, we can just walk there. ”

"Xiaoxiao, the last time they helped you was for Mr. Zhou, so I came to the door to ask for help, is it appropriate?"

"You don't understand anything, Hong Kong is a commercial society, as long as there is money to be made, they won't care about anything. Do you think Mr. Zhou is looking for them for free? It also costs money! ”

"Huh?" Xu Yunjian really didn't know about this, and opened his mouth in surprise, "I'm still right, just like you asked Team Yang to do something, relying on our relationship." ”

"Two different things, this is Hong Kong, and it is different from the Tian (Tianjin) side." Mr. Zhang is referring to Zhang Dadong, as mentioned above, he is a master, in charge of some corresponding legal aid and other things, and his office is located right next to the famous Matsusakaya department store, which is a very famous Japanese-owned department store, and like the Daimaru and Funakoshi department stores in the Causeway Bay area, it was chosen and built by the economically discerning Japanese before the era of the global economy began to take off.

Matsusakaya, for example, is similar in size to a department store in Tentsu, but in addition to the six floors above ground, there are two floors underground, and there is a wide variety of goods produced in almost every country in the world! The cost of building this building alone is 900 million yen!

Zhang Dadong's office area is on the 14th floor, and when he walks out of the elevator, there is a long corridor, and there are signs with different words written on each side, such as Rehabilitation Law Firm, Wang's Finance and Accounting Company, and Manchester Exhibition Travel Company. Walking around the corridor, I found a glass door with the words 'Zhang Dadong Law Firm' written on it, and pushed the door in, and there was a reception desk, and a girl in the back, wearing a well-fitting skirt. He was smiling at the two who came in, "Morning." ”

"Early, I want to find Mr. Zhang Dadong."

The girl didn't want to be two 'old guests', and it was estimated that the other party couldn't understand what she was saying, so she tilted her head and pondered for a while, and struggled to straighten her tongue, "Please...... Mizhu ...... Less, less. She picked up the phone on the table and said a few words, then put it down.

Lu Li and Xu Yunjian waited for a moment, and Zhang Dadong came out of the office area with a surprised expression. "Yes...... Mr. Lu, right? This is ...... Mr. Xu, right? ”

"Long time no see, Mr. Zhang."

"Hello, hello, hello." Zhang Dadong's Chinese speech was also very bad, but it was much more pleasant than the girl in charge of reception, shook hands with the two people with a smile, and led them to the office to sit down, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Xu, what to drink?" Is coffee OK? ”

"Yes."

Zhang Dadong arranged it. After a while, an OL came in with three cups of coffee. Set it up in front of Lu Li and Xu Yunjian, turned around and went out, "Mr. Lu, this time you came to Hong Kong, do you have something to do?" ”

"I want to ask you for help, can you handle the household registration procedures in Hong Kong for me and Xu Yunjian?"

"Oh. This is not possible unless you have a guarantor in Hong Kong, and even then the Hong Kong government will take some time to review your relationship until it is confirmed. You will be issued with a permanent identification document. ”

"This makes me wonder, if you are my guarantor and sponsor me to come to Hong Kong, can't I even go out until I get the official identification documents? How can there be such a truth in the world? ”

"It's true that no, but Mr. Lu, in this case, the Hong Kong government will issue you a temporary identity document with the same legal effect, and you can use this temporary document until the official document is issued."

"So, what about some smugglers from the mainland?"

"These people, there is no other way but to wait! After a certain period of time, the British government in Hong Kong will introduce new immigration measures, or there will be a chance to register and become a full citizen of Hong Kong. Zhang Dadong sighed and said: "But Mr. Lu, the two of us always have a relationship, I really don't want you to make such a choice - the life of illegal workers is really miserable, the listeners are sad, and the listeners cry......"

Lu Li and Xu Yunjian looked at each other and smiled, "Then, Mr. Zhang, I want to ask you, is there any other way for a situation like me and Xu Yunjian?" ”

"Well, of course, it's not nothing, you know, Hong Kong implements a laissez-faire market economy, this ...... You may not understand, but it's with you ......" he gestured to the ceiling with his hand, meaning north...... It's completely different. Therefore, the British government in Hong Kong has opened up a new way to immigrate, that is, to invest. In words that you can understand, you bring some money, join the Hong Kong economic environment, and after a period of time, you can apply for a residence permit. ”

"Why do you have to wait for a while? During this time, I still couldn't do anything, I couldn't even get out? ”

"As long as you get a bank certificate with the same legal effect, which can convince the official that you have indeed come to Hong Kong with a certain amount of funds, you can also be issued a temporary residence permit. Then, after a period of economic operation and with the corresponding documents as proof, you can apply for ......"

Xu Yunjian asked: "Why do you want everything to be corresponding, corresponding information, where do you get so many corresponding?" ”

Although Zhang Dadong can speak a little Mandarin, such a vocabulary with local characteristics makes him confused, "Mihua? ”

Lu Li smiled and waved his hand, and said to Zhang Dadong: "It's okay, don't pay attention to him, Mr. Zhang, let me ask you, is there a limit to the number of such bank certificates?" ”

"Yes, a minimum of 300,000 Hong Kong dollars."

"If I bring proof like this, how long will you be able to do this of mine...... What is a temporary residence permit? ”

"Three days."

Lu Li nodded, said no more, and got up with Xu Yunjian to say goodbye. The two of them went down to the first floor, turned around and went straight to Standard Chartered Bank, located not far from Central—this was the only place he was more familiar with, and when he pushed the door in, things in the world were so coincidental. Or the girl who had dealt with him twice at the beginning, was sitting behind the semi-circular counter at the reception, and whenever a guest arrived, she got up with a smile and saluted, and took the documents or materials handed by the other party with both hands, looking humble and polite. And well-educated.

Luli stepped forward and stood in front of her, "Hello, sir. The girl still asked in proficient Cantonese, and then her face froze, as if she felt that the man in front of her was a little familiar, "You?" ”

"It's been a long time, I'm bothering you again."

"Ahh Listening to his pure Mandarin, the girl finally remembered. A smile appeared on his ruddy apple-like face, and when he spoke again, he also changed to Chinese, "Then, sir, what's the matter?" ”

"I want to put a check in the bank."

"Yes, sir." The girl looked like she was business, and she took the check from him with a smile. Glancing at the number above: 400,000. "Yes. Sir, I don't know whose name it is. ”

"I, Luley." He wrote a few strokes on the counter, indicating which two words she was.

The girl smiled and nodded, indicating that she understood. "I know. Sir, do you have any valid documents? ”

Luley was immediately dumbfounded, he did not know that the British government in Hong Kong since the mid-70s. The real-name system of the bank was implemented, and without a Hong Kong ID card, it was impossible to open a personal account in the bank. Thinking of Zhang Dadong's words in my heart, isn't this a paradox? "I ...... I'm from the north, well, no ID. ”

"Oh." The girl opened her mouth regretfully and pushed the check in her hand, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, this won't help you." ”

Lu Li nodded, turned around and walked out of the bank with Xu Yunjian, went to Zhang Dadong's lawyer's office again, and said what had happened, "Mr. Zhang, what do you think should be done with such a thing?" ”

"So?" Zhang Dadong was also a little troubled, he pondered for a moment and said: "The only way is to apply for court assistance." ”

"How?"

"It is to apply to the court for a document appealing your case, and at the same time ask the judge to issue a legally binding court order so that your personal account can be opened in the bank, and then, the problem can be solved."

"How long will that take?"

"I'll arrange it as soon as possible, but it will take a week at the earliest."

Xu Yunjian tugged at the corner of Lu Li's clothes and whispered: "Xiaoxiao, forget it, why do you have to stay here, let's go home?" What is this stay for a week? ”

Lu Li didn't expect things to be so difficult, and frowned in embarrassment, "Mr. Zhang, do you have to hire a special lawyer for such a thing?" ”

"No, no, I can."

"So, how much money do I have to give you if I get this done?"

"I'm sorry, I can't answer this question right now, because some aspects that require labor will not be able to calculate the specific cost until it is completely finished. But you can rest assured that any expenses are well documented. In your case, Mr. Lu, it will not exceed HK$50,000. ”

"Fifty thousand? You might as well grab it! Xu Yunjian scolded desperately, "I'm cao, do you know how long it took for our buddies to earn this money?" You open your mouth for 50,000? Xiaoxiao, let's go back, we can't spend this unjust money! ”

"This is by no means a waste of money, Mr. Xu, court scheduling and preparing materials cost money. In fact, I won't tell you anything, even from just now, when I talk to the two of you, it costs money. ”

The more Xu Yunjian listened, the more annoyed he became, and scolded loudly: "What the fuck are you doing? Do you want to collect money for talking? cnm！ Why don't you go to robbery? ”

Zhang Dadong was not angry, he still looked like an old god, "Mr. Lu, what do you say?" ”

"How sure are you, I mean, this kind of court document?"

"Ninety percent. The Hong Kong government encourages investment, and Mr. Lo's case is not unique. The only difference is that you're from the mainland. That's all. ”

"Okay, then." Lu Li nodded, "Mr. Zhang, this matter is entrusted to you, is there anything else I need to do?" ”

"Yes, please wait a while, Mr. Lu, I will ask Jenny to print a contract, and the two of us have signed our names on it, which is a legally binding document."

*******************************************

After all this, Lu Li suddenly remembered something, "Mr. Zhang, I would like to ask you, for example, my companion and I can stay in a hotel in Hong Kong?" ”

"Oh, that's not going to work."

Lu Li and Xu Yunjian looked at each other, why can't they do anything? "So, you know, what can we do?"

"The only way is to go to Yuen Long or Sai Kung, which is home to a lot of people from the mainland, and there's a little bit of a looser censorship."

Lu Li asked how to get to the above two places, and he and Xu Yunjian officially said goodbye, "Xiaoxiao, where are we going next?" ”

"Go to the bank first, exchange a little Hong Kong dollars, and then find a place to live." (To be continued......)
