Chapter 32, Liu Wei

If it had been a year ago, Liu Wei would never have thought that he would smuggle himself to Hong Kong with some comrades-in-arms to work.

Liu Wei is Chinese New Year's Eve one year old today, he has been learning martial arts at home since he was a child, and when he was a teenager, he became a famous master of the hometown generation, and later enlisted in the army.

After that, his career has been very smooth, and he was promoted from a big soldier to a platoon commander because of his merit just two years after joining the army, and then he was valued by the leaders of the army to serve as a guard next to the leader, which was seven or eight years.

The leaders of the army attached great importance to Liu Wei, and arranged for Liu Wei to study culture in his free time, Liu Wei was also very competitive and studied very seriously, and later under the arrangement of the leaders, Liu Wei went to the military academy.

Because the guards have been working for a long time, the leaders feel very unhappy and feel that Liu Wei's future will be delayed, and Liu Wei is ready to arrange for him to go to the army as a battalion commander after graduating from the military academy. Originally, everything had been arranged, but unfortunately there was an accident on a trip home to visit relatives.

It was on the way back to the army, and Liu Wei was waiting for the bus at the station. Seeing that there were hooligans molesting women, although the girl called for help, the people around her were all shrunken turtles one by one, as a People's Liberation Army, Liu Wei did not let him step forward to stop it.

There was a fight with the gangsters, and Liu Wei, who was a master in the army, was certainly not something that a few hooligans could deal with. It's a pity that the attack was too heavy, causing one death and three serious injuries. Although it was a legitimate defense, the consequences were too serious, and the other party's family members caused trouble with the troops. The leader had no choice, in order not to embarrass the leader, Liu Wei took the initiative to choose to retire.

Liu Wei, who retired and returned home, had to work as a farmer at home, take care of his wife and children, and although his life was harder, he could still live. It's a pity that there are unforeseen circumstances, and Liu Wei's father had an accident.

Liu Wei's family is in the mountains of western Guangdong, where there is too little arable land, and he only relies on farming to feed his family. That day, when the cannon was fired to blow up the stones, I don't know if it was because there was too much explosives or what the reason was, a stone jumped up the mountain and fell down and hit Liu Wei's father.

The people in the village hurriedly helped Liu Wei take his father to the hospital, and his life was saved, but a lot of money was needed for later treatment. Liu Wei thought of all the ways he could think of, and the villagers were also actively helping under the leadership of the village chief, but the mainland in the 70s was too poor to make up for the medical expenses. There is no way, Liu Wei, at the instigation of his old comrades-in-arms, heard that Hong Kong can make money. Several people smuggled over together, ready to earn money for Liu Wei's father to treat his illness.

There were six people who came with Liu Wei, all of whom were Liu Wei's comrades-in-arms in the army, among which Zhao Weiguo and Zhao Hongjun were brothers, and they were both in the mountains like Liu Wei, and they joined the army a few years later than Liu Wei. The other four people, Wu Fan, He Sanshui, Chen Xiaolong, and Li Ming, were all Liu Wei's comrades-in-arms in the army. Because Liu Wei has the highest rank and the best skills in the army, everyone regards Liu Wei as a big brother, and everything is under Liu Wei's command.

However, after arriving in Hong Kong, I realized that Hong Kong is richer than the mainland, but money is not so easy to earn. And it's also very expensive in Hong Kong. Liu Wei and several of them were all soldiers, and they didn't have any skills, so it was impossible to find those technical jobs. I can only do some coolie work to earn some hard-earned money, which is only enough for a few people to live, and there is nothing after paying the rent.

In fact, with Liu Wei and a few of them, it is still very easy to make money, and if a master like Liu Wei joins the club, he can become a gold medal fighter. However, with Liu Wei's experience as a soldier in the mainland, he would not agree to work for the community.

A few days ago, Liu Wei, Zhao Weiguo, and He Sanshui went to the labor market to try their luck and see what jobs they could find.

In the market, Liu Wei and others saw that Wu Bo was recruiting workers, and the three of them wanted to try their luck in the past, but they didn't think about applying for a job at all.

You must know that in the mainland at this time, workers were a very popular occupation, and if you could be a worker at that time, you would be as happy as being a civil servant 30 years later, because workers at this time were iron rice bowls.

But who would have thought that Wu Bo could see that they had been soldiers, and thought that there were no security guards in the factory, so he chatted casually and recruited them as security guards.

Including food and accommodation, 600 Hong Kong dollars a month is 300 yuan. (At this time, 4.5 Hong Kong dollars for one dollar) For Hong Kong people, this salary is very low, but for Liu Wei and others, this is pie in the sky. You must know that several of them are looking for work everywhere during this time, doing odd jobs and doing coolies, and it is only a few hundred Hong Kong dollars a month, which is not enough for food and housing.

Now because of food and accommodation, the 600 Hong Kong dollars can be saved, you must know that in the mainland at this time, the monthly salary of an ordinary worker is only a few tens of yuan. In Liu Wei's hometown, a farmer earns less than 100 yuan a year. One month can save the money that a person in his hometown can earn for 3 years. For Liu Wei and others, it is a big profit.

So during this time, Liu Wei and others worked very hard. During this period, the common people on the mainland were still very simple, and whoever was good to him, he would be better to him.

"Hello Mr. Wu!" Seeing Uncle Wu coming, Liu Wei and the others hurriedly greeted him. For Uncle Wu, Liu Wei and others are very grateful.

"Hmm!" For the greetings of Liu Wei and others, Wu Bo nodded in response! "Liu Wei, Lei Shao has something to do with you, you go over!"

"Okay Mr. Wu, I'll go over now!" Liu Wei replied, thought about it and asked, "Mr. Wu, can I ask, what is the boss looking for me?" ”

"Go ahead! It's a good thing, Lei Shao wants to give you a raise! Uncle Wu kicked Liu Wei with a smile, although he was kicked, Liu Wei was very happy, Mr. Wu was treating him as his own.

When he came to the door of the company, Liu Wei was a little nervous. I can't see my parents for the first time, and I'm always a little worried. However, after all, Liu Wei has been a guard beside the leader for several years, and he has seen many big people, but he returned to normal in an instant.

Knock knock, come in.

Liu Wei walked into the office, because of his professional habits, Liu Wei, who swept the scene of the office in his eyes, was a little surprised.

The furnishings of the company are very simple, there is no magnificence as imagined, only simple furniture, tables, chairs, sofas and coffee tables. The decoration industry is just a few pots of flowers on the windowsill of the room. There is no imaginary capitalist luxury. There was a young man sitting on the sofa, about fifteen or sixteen years old, this is the boss, he looks so young, no wonder Mr. Wu called the boss Lei Shao.

"You are Liu Wei! Have a seat! The young man on the sofa saw Liu Wei coming in, greeted him, and arranged for Liu Wei to sit down.

"Thank you, boss!" Liu Wei had long heard that the boss of the factory was very young, but when he saw Lei Weidong with his own eyes, he realized that he underestimated the boss. At this time, the mainland was strictly socialist, and there was no son following his father's business, let alone the factory leader, but a small section chief in the factory was nearly 30 years old. It's rare for this little boss to be so young and thrifty.

In fact, Liu Wei misunderstood Lei Weidong, with Lei Weidong's otaku character in his previous life, if he made a fortune, he would not be so wronged himself, this is not a career start, and Lei Weidong in the factory basically can't come, so he didn't spend a lot of effort on decorating the office.

"I don't know, what is the matter with Mr. Lei looking for Liu Wei?" As a security guard, Liu Wei knew that when the leader looked for him, he must not let the leader ask him first.

"Hehe, I heard that Brother Liu was in charge of security work before, I don't know if you are interested in being a bodyguard with me!" Lei Weidong went straight to the point, he originally wanted to call viagra, but the name viagra Lei Weidong was really a little unspeakable, after all, the name of viagra in later generations was too famous.

"Be a bodyguard!" Although Liu Wei was a little surprised by Lei Weidong's question, he thought about it carefully and felt that he could be favored by the boss in this area.

Regarding being a bodyguard for others, Liu Wei did not reject it. I was a guard in the army, and it was nothing to be a veteran when I left the army! As a soldier, as long as you are not a traitor, you can accept it.

"Thank you boss for giving me this opportunity, I will definitely do a good job, those comrades of mine don't know what they can do?" Of course, Liu Wei was happy to be favored by the boss, but Liu Wei also wanted to ask what he thought about Zhao Weiguo and others.

"What do you think about the current law and order in Hong Kong?" Regarding Liu Wei's question, Lei Weidong did not answer directly.

"This ......" Liu Wei was obviously stunned by Lei Weidong's question, and he didn't know what Lei Weidong meant. Very poor! Thinking about it, Liu Wei still told the truth: "The club is too rampant, I really didn't expect that there would be a club blatantly collecting protection fees before I came to Hong Kong!" ”

"Have you ever been charged protection money?" Lei Weidong asked:

"No, a few of us are doing some hard work, there is no oil and water, and we are all young and middle-aged, so no one collects protection money. Someone blackmailed us, and after a few fights, it was gone! Liu Wei replied without thinking about it:

"Then how do you think a company like ours can prevent those associations from coming to collect protection money!" Regarding Liu Wei's answer just now, Lei Weidong could feel the anger in Liu Wei's words. Of course, I am not happy that a few people came to Hong Kong to make money, and if they didn't earn the money, they would be blackmailed by gangsters.

"It's very simple, just have a strong security department, this place is relatively small and there are no big associations, as long as the security department of the factory is strong. I was scared of those gangsters, so I naturally didn't dare to collect protection money! ”

"Is it that simple? Can't you call the police? Lei Weidong asked rhetorically: "How much is a strong security department!" ”

"The police definitely don't work, and I've seen the police drinking and eating with the gangsters several times in the past six months. Those policemen are simply gangsters, and they only bully the common people. Liu Wei thought for a while and replied: "The community is all seeking money, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, our factory does not need more, as long as there are dozens of security guards, we can completely ensure the safety of the factory." ”

It seems that the reputation of the Hong Kong police is really bad, and even people who have just come to Hong Kong like Liu Wei are disappointed in the police. It's okay now, but in any case, Hong Kong society is still stable, and it was the dark age of Hong Kong society in the 90s. Hong Kong's law and order is terrible, otherwise there would be no anti-gang demonstrations. At that time, the face of the British government in Hong Kong was completely disgraced.

"You're right, if there are dozens of security guards, you can really keep the factory safe." Lei Weidong nodded and agreed: "But if the factory develops in the future, only a few dozen security guards will not work." ”

"What do you mean, boss?" Liu Wei asked:

"I am going to set up a security department, and I will first recruit 100 security guards, and Wu Bo will be in charge. Those comrades of yours have all entered the Security Section. ”

"A hundred security guards! Boss, isn't there too many people recruited! Liu Wei was surprised by Lei Weidong's generosity, Liu Wei originally thought that Lei Weidong could spend money to hire dozens of security guards, and in Liu Wei's estimate, dozens of security guards could completely ensure the safety of the factory.

"Not much, this is just the beginning, more security guards will be recruited in the future! Your comrades-in-arms have a salary increase of 600 each, and as for your salary increase of 1200, how can you be satisfied!! Lei Weidong was not surprised by Liu Wei's surprise at all, after all, outsiders will not understand how powerful the Hong Kong community is.

"Mr. Lei, satisfied, of course satisfied!" Liu Wei almost shed tears of excitement, Liu Wei has been in Hong Kong for more than half a year, and he also knows a little about Hong Kong, an ordinary clerk only earns more than 1,000 a month! And Lei Weidong added so much money just by talking to himself, which reminded Liu Wei of his old leader, and it must be worth it to do things under such a boss.

"As long as you're satisfied!." Lei Weidong said: "Go out and do things!" Just help me get the security department in order! ”

"Okay, boss!" Liu Wei was about to go out happily.
