"Although I was sick at home during this period, I also kept an eye on the situation and asked my friends to contact Mr. Luk, the speaker of the New Territories." Ho Ting-yin invited the Governor to sit down in the living room, and introduced Lu Hantao with his finger: "Mr. Lu is here to communicate with the Hong Kong government on behalf of the New Territories. ”

"Thank you for your visit."

Lu Hantao stood up and bowed: "Mr. He, Mr. Governor." ”

Bai Liji glanced at Lu Hantao, took the tea handed by the servant, and said with a smile: "He sir works hard, he has to work hard when he is sick, and the Hong Kong government is very grateful for your contribution, and specially reported to the ancestral family and applied for the commander medal for you." ”

"Due to the tense political situation, it is inconvenient to hold the award ceremony, so I have brought the medal to the house in person."

He took a gift box from his assistant's hand and opened it, and inside was a shiny round gold medal.

The Commander Medal CBE is the third rank in the knightly medal system, which is one level higher than the Order of Officer, which is really suitable as a reward to buy the hearts and minds of the police.

“Thank you， sir！”

He Dingxian's face was excited, he sorted out his suit, stood up and said, "My subordinates deserve it." ”

"Ho sir."

Bai Liji took out the medal, hung the ribbon around He Sir's neck, and said solemnly: "The police force performed very well in the June Seven incident, and a medal is not enough to commend the police force's meritorious service. ”

"The queen has approved the royal title of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, and it will be officially announced after the incident subsides!"

He Dingxian stomped his feet vigorously in front of the sofa, raised his hands in salute, and shouted: "Thank you, sir!" ”

Lei Luo, Yan Xiong, Jiang Zuhui and others stood behind them, their expressions were very exciting, they didn't expect the police force to have a day when they would be crowned.

Bai Liji looked at them with a smile on his face: "The Hong Kong government is also very grateful to all the governors for their dedication to social security, and will award certificates of commendation to all the officers in the future." ”

"Whew."

Lei Luo held a cigar in his hand, spit out a cigarette, and sneered: "Don't dare to be." ”

He Dingxian said with a smile: "These police officers are all small and thin noodles in the New Territories, and a few days ago I had the same viral flu, fever, dizziness, and weakness in my limbs, and today I invited them to come to my house to sit,"

Bai Liji bowed his head slightly, and his face was pleased: "There are police officers who serve Hong Kong Island, and Hong Kong Island is only where it is today." Mr. Luk, have the New Territories agreed to the terms of the last negotiation? I don't think it will be good for the New Territories to make any more trouble, regardless of whether the New Territories lease is recognized or not, it is an established fact that the New Territories are under the management of Hong Kong Island, and it is in the best interest of people's livelihood to jointly develop the New Territories. ”

It was the first time for Lu Hantao to face the governor, and he had the idea of peace in his heart, and under the majesty of the governor, he opened his mouth, but he was a little submissive and did not dare to refute. After all, the governor hit the nail on the head with a single word, and he was so clever that he didn't know where to go.

He Dingxian sighed in his heart, and seeing his timid appearance, he simply took over the conversation: "Bai sir, the villagers of the New Territories mean that the New Territories can be jointly developed, but the 'Ding Quan' must be opened to ensure the right of residence of the villagers in the New Territories." The New Territories is where they have lived for generations, and the Hong Kong government has to respect the people of the New Territories out of concern and considerations for the situation. ”

"Although the New Territories are under the management of the Hong Kong government, the people of the New Territories will vote with their feet, and they don't want the crossfire to happen again, right?"

Pak Lap Kee heard the threat in Ho Ting-yin's mouth and understood that if he did not approve Ding Quan, the police force would turn to support the protests of the New Territories until the Hong Kong government agreed to Ding Quan. Thinking of the more than 100 security militia in the New Territories, I had to agree to everything I didn't want to: "Okay! ”

"The Hong Kong government respects the New Territories."

"But in the future, the Hong Kong government will also ask the New Territories residents to support its development plans."

"I am going to set up a New Territories and set up a Justice of the Peace in the New Territories, and I hope to invite Mr. Luk, Mr. Szeto and others to serve as them." This is to co-opt the four major speakers of the New Territories, with the title of Justice of the Peace in the New Territories, as if their dominance over the New Territories, and at the same time, the Justice of the Peace in the New Territories must also serve the development plan of the Hong Kong government.

This is similar to He Dingxian's letting Lu Hantao immediately cast his name, but the name is private to private, and the control is stronger, and being a Justice of the Peace is public to public, and the control is weaker, but the legal system is two points stronger.

Lu Hantao turned his gaze to He Dingxian, He Dingxian raised the teacup, lowered his head to drink tea, and inadvertently bowed slightly, Lu Hantao looked at the governor and nodded: "Okay, but the Justice of the Peace in the New Territories needs to serve as a member of the New Territories Council, serving the Hong Kong government and supervising the administration of the Hong Kong government." ”

Ordinary people are only worthy of the power to work, how can they be worthy of the power of supervision?

However, the New Territories is a power fought with the barrel of a gun, and the governor had to be convinced, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Yes." ”

This is also the reason why the Justices of the Peace in the New Territories are listed separately in the Hong Kong Island system, for example, the Justices of the Peace in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are all "official" and "unofficial", referring to the difference between the government status and the private Justices of the Peace, but the Justices of the Peace in the New Territories are not divided into "official" and "unofficial", and are directly named "Justices of the Peace in the New Territories" on official documents. Because the New Territories Justices of the Peace are the most powerful and vocal gentlemen among all the Justices of the Peace.

"Hahaha."

"Take a step back, talk on an equal footing, and the world will be peaceful." He Dingxian laughed and said loudly: "How about not changing the size of Ding Quan according to what was previously agreed, and at the same time allowing the villagers to list and trade Ding Quan securitization to promote the economic development of the New Territories?" ”

He was completely in charge of the Governor, but the Governor was powerless to fight anymore, so he could only nod: "Do as Sir said, but the security militia must withdraw from the New Territories immediately, otherwise the parliament will not be able to pass legislation." ”

"There is a lot of opinion from the Hong Kong government about the militia crossing the border."

Lu Hantao saw He Sir nodding, and nodded like the echo worm.

In fact, Ho Sir laid the groundwork in the original clause, revising the historical data of 25 feet high, limited to three floors, and a single layer not exceeding 700 feet, to 30 feet high, with a single layer of 1,000 feet, which won a lot of benefits for the villagers in the New Territories.

After all, if you don't make more efforts to fight for it at the beginning, it will never be possible to increase the area later. If a single floor of 700 feet will be cramped, in fact, a single floor of 1000 feet is very comfortable to live in. An area of 300 feet is a difficult class for most people to cross in a lifetime.

If He Dingxian wants to collect "service fees" from the New Territories, he will inevitably provide some "services" to the New Territories. The biggest meat cut of the ghost guy is actually not in the "Ding Quan", but in the securitization of Ding Quan.

The land itself belongs to the villagers in the New Territories, and the Ding Quan is just a policy replacement, and the ghosts are nothing more than a frustration of hegemonism, and they cannot force the villagers to sell their land at a low price. However, the securitization of Ding warrants will eat up a piece of land supply income from the Hong Kong government, which will be converted into a land rights transaction between Chinese and Chinese, so that Hong Kong Island will lose control over the land supply in the New Territories, as well as part of the tax revenue.

In later generations, the biggest obstacle to the securitization of Ding Quan is not the real estate developers, the villagers, but the Hong Kong government!

And now in the face of the overall situation, Bai Liji has long been no longer concerned about a little bit of land interests, and the long-term benefits brought by the Tsuen Wan port opening plan in the New Territories are far stronger than some land.

"That's it, sign the official document, and go to the newspaper!" He Dingxian cut the cigar carefully, solved the situation with one final word, cocked Erlang's legs, took out the lighter, and sipped the cigar one by one. Bai Liji turned around and gave his assistant a look, and the assistant began to draft the official document, Lu Hantao did not have this kind of talent in his hands, but fortunately, He Dingxian had already called Luo Jinhui to help him, responsible for reviewing the terms in the official document.

"You don't have to sit still."

"Let's go for a walk."

He Dingxian found that after the negotiation, the atmosphere in the living room was a little solemn, so he simply got up and proposed to go to the garden together.

Bai Li was basically still immersed in the distress of cutting meat, and when he heard this, he put down his thoughts, stood up with a smile and said, "Okay, everyone, sir, let's take a walk together." ”

"Gentleman Lu, come with you."

He Dingxian said with a smile.

Half an hour later.

Bai Liji, Lu Hantao, He Dingxian and others returned to the hall, Lu Hantao and Bai Liji confirmed that the official document was correct, and then signed the document. ”

A large rock hits the ground.

"Haha."

"Outsiders call the New Territories incident a May storm, but today is only the 23rd, starting in May, and finally May is a good thing." At least it was not manipulated by illegal forces as it was in history, and it spread until the end of six or seven years.

Ho Ting-yin is quite proud in his words, because this proves that his influence on Hong Kong Island, his control over class contradictions, and his control over the struggle have reached a higher level!

Lu Hantao is a bit of a puppet, and his heart is empty. Losing the justice of resisting the Hong Kong government, next, if he wants to control the New Territories, he needs to use many illegal means. However, his original intentions were indeed good, and the ending also won power for the villagers in the New Territories, and a lot of blood was shed.

Lei Luo, Yan Xiong and others did not enter the living room, but stayed in the garden to smoke.

At this time, Lei Luo's eyes looked into the living room, and when he saw Lu Hantao shaking hands with Bai Liji, he couldn't help but burst out of his mouth: "Murder and set fire to the gold belt, build bridges and pave roads without corpses, it, a hillbilly also climbed on top of us." ”

"Justice of the Peace in the New Territories, if you want to be promoted quickly as an official, you really have to pull the flag to rebel and be recruited."

Yan Xiong didn't complain on the side, and said very sincerely: "People have been cultivating land on Hong Kong Island for hundreds of years, and there is no land in the New Territories, where did the grain come from on Hong Kong Island in ancient times?" After hundreds of years of blood and sweat to change a generation of justice of the peace, there is not a lot of mixing. ”

New immigrants such as Lei Luo and Lard Boy will indeed feel uncomfortable with the privileges of the villagers in the New Territories, but while the New Territories people own the land, they are also trapped in the land.

"Alright."

"Big guy, they're out." The lard boy threw the cigarette on the ground and crushed it, then picked up the cigarette butt and put it in his pocket, and stepped forward to open the door for the big guy. Lei Luo, Yan Xiong and the others had straight expressions, let go to both sides, and followed the big guy to send the governor out.

"Da-da-da-da."

At this time, a helicopter in the distance was coming in the air, and the roar of the propeller attracted everyone's attention, and many plainclothes people present showed nervous expressions. He Dingxian, Lu Hantao and others set their eyes on the helicopter and found that it was a helicopter in civilian livery and hanging containers, their faces were slightly softened, but they were also concentrating on staring at the sky at the door.

The governor stood in the garden and did not rush to leave, but said with a smile: "He sir." ”

"One last gift for you."
