Chapter 8 One Day on Hong Kong Island

The man on the rockery has a medium figure, gray-eyed and gray-faced face, and a simple and unpretentious appearance, but even this is the description, it is the most conspicuous among the crowd, because he has a pair of conspicuous eyes, and the eyes are simply shining, which makes ordinary people much brighter. The man was wearing a white coat on the upper body, black cloth pants on the lower body, and a pair of black thousand-layer cloth shoes on the feet. He stepped on a protruding foot with his hands behind his back. He was completely in a deep and magistrate spirit, and his grandmaster spirit was undoubtedly revealed...

This person is Xue Xiang's mentor Gu Changdao, a former suicide squad officer. After the Huaihai Battle, he became Xue Anyuan's guard. Before the catastrophe, he was taken to the 19th Army Special Forces Brigade as a martial arts instructor.

Gu Changdao is a stereotyped person, with a very similar personality to Kang Tong, and is a little taciturn. Just now, he criticized Xue Xiang for his lack of hard work and criticized him for his lack of struggle. Perhaps there was also a long reunion factor. After all, the master and apprentice separated for six or seven years, and the hunched boy grew up to be a young man in Ang Zang. If he had not been in action and still had a childhood model, Gu Changdao would not have recognized him.

A lunch was rich and simple, with four dishes and a bowl of fresh soup. Because Xue Anyuan advocated not to speak, he toasted Vice President Wang at noon and served rice bowls. This silent meal combined the thoughts of Vice President Wang and the trembling old man. Xue Xiang was in front of the fierce eating. The atmosphere was good, but the bread and mineral water were eaten happily.

Only Liu Ying'er seemed to be in a bad mood. She held the bowl, sipped in a small sip, picked up less food. When Xue Anyuan had just put down the chopsticks, she immediately put the bowl and said politely, she went back to the room. Xue Xiang knew why her lover was like this, but now Xue Anyuan was standing by, Gu Changdao first met. It was not the time when children were in love.

After lunch, the lame old man slipped back to the room. Vice President Wang seemed to be interested in the southern style, but Xue Xiang could not accompany him. He sued him and asked the serviceman to drive the car to take Vice President Wang out for a leisurely trip. He and Gu Changdao left the villa, wandered in the mountains, and talked.

"Lao Gu, when did you come? I always thought you were in the 19th Army and were transferred to Lingnan?" The two stopped under a welcoming pine tree. The cool breeze here and the broad vision was a good place to enjoy the scenery and chat.

"Well, I heard that it might be a war, so I'll come over." Gu Changdao looked far away, his voice was light, but Xue Xiang could hear the murderous intent that could not be hidden in his words.

But Gu Changdao is only about 10 years old, and now he is already in his forty-eight years. When he was fighting ghosts, he was young. He didn't catch up. When he was fighting the Americans, he naturally didn't make it. He was just fighting a civil war for the rest of his life. Now the martyrs are in their old age and have a strong ambitions. Finally, they have the last chance to participate in the war against foreigners. Why don't he make his blood boil?

"You're on the stage in person?" Xue Xiang was shocked. Gu Changdao was almost fifty years old. Even if you were skilled in national skills, you would be full of energy. But you would have to be in the rain of bullets with guns. It's not that you can avoid bullets if you know Chinese skills.

It seemed that Xue Xiang's concern was seen. Gu Changdao squeezed out a smile: "I guess he is still the old business, and he will lead a group of people to intersperse the low-key."

Xue Xiang understood. It was a special operation, so he let go of his heart. The team was fighting. For a master of national martial arts like Gu Changdao, the risk was much lower. He asked again: "Cang Tong and his gang are also responsible for training?"

Gu Changdao nodded without answering.

A pair of masters and apprentices are good drinkers, but they are not easy to chat with. If they can't say a few words, they will be in a mess. Fortunately, Xue Xiang was prepared, and took out two bottles of Erguotou from his bag, and an oil paper bag wrapped in roast chicken and peanuts. The two sat under the pineapple and drank each other. This time, they drank until the sunset was setting, and the red clouds were everywhere, and then they helped each other back.

The next morning, a staff member from the Foreign Affairs Department came to deliver the passes and picked up people on the boat. Originally, Xue Anyuan was busy training the troops, but Xue Xiang arrived, so he had to take a day to accompany him. At this moment, he naturally had no time to send him into the boat. However, Gu Changdao said that he had never been to the other side of the water and wanted to meet the world of capital zy. After years of separation, he met Gu Changdao. Xue Xiang also wanted to spend a few more days with this teacher, but he agreed.

The car moved from Yangcheng to Pengcheng, and then took a boat from Pengcheng. After more than two hours, it got ashore and passed the customs inspection. Because of the sign of x-China News Agency, it was smooth sailing. At 12 o'clock in the morning, I arrived at No. 327 Queen's Avenue, where the Hong Kong Island X-China Branch was located.

The person who received Xue Xiang and his party was a soldier who claimed to be Battalion Commander Hao. After a closer look, he found out that the guards of the x-Chinese community were all dispatched by the Lingnan Military Region. Xue Xiang's trip was originally a private matter, and he had to do dirty work of selling state goods privately, so he naturally was unwilling to deal with the public. It was just right for Battalion Commander Hao, the "personal person", to be received.

It turned out that Battalion Commander Hao did answer the phone call from Xue Anyuan's office, but he could only be responsible for the reception guidance work, and the arrangement of accommodation was beyond his ability. So, under the guidance of Battalion Commander Hao, the group chose a star hotel called Shengye and settled down.

After everyone settled down, Xue Xiang asked Vice President Wang and Lark Old to rest in the room. He took the map of Hong Kong Island and asked Battalion Commander Hao what famous hospitals there are in Hong Kong Island. Then, he asked Liu Ying'er to take care of Dabao in the room, and he and Gu Changdao went to the hospital for surgery. As for Battalion Commander Hao, he left a phone number and said that he had something to call this, and he would definitely call someone, so he said goodbye.

The previous group was in the car and was busy conditioning Dabao. Xue Xiang had never had the opportunity to look at the Hong Kong market in the late 1970s. After leaving the hotel, he called a taxi with Gu Changdao and sat in the car. Then he looked out and looked at the Hong Kong market in this era.

It is said that from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, it was the period when Hong Kong Island's economy was developing rapidly, and the people were prosperous. The street markets were filled with people and traffic flowed, which was the best reflection of the economic environment at this time. The bustling crowds, colorful clothing, high-rise buildings, and endless streams of traffic flowed. Not only did they look at the long sword, they were so shocked that they glared at the eyes, but Xue Xiang's eyes-opening future generations were also suppressed.

In his previous life, Xue Xiang had almost never left the 49th city, let alone Hong Kong Island. However, the streets in front of him were clearly the level of development that only ordinary cities in the mainland in the 21st century had. It can be seen how rapid the development of Hong Kong Island should be.

As soon as he got on, Xue Xiang didn't speak much, just to enjoy the scenery, but Gu Changdao suddenly started to talk too much. He said, "The capital of the dog is really good", and then he said, "The woman's chest is exposed outside. What's the matter?" He heard it and laughed at the driver in front of him.

If you want to say that Xue Xiang had a family member at Peking University in his previous life, he was from Lingnan. He followed a lot of Cantonese. When he was studying, Hong Kong movies were very popular. Because they were all pirated discs and no Mandarin dubbing, they were all over the place. They were also mastered by Cantonese. Therefore, he politely declined the proposal of Battalion Commander Hao to equip a tour guide. He was the first to take a taxi before.

However, the middle-aged driver had been running for decades, traveling from south to north, and was proficient in various dialects, so he naturally knew Mandarin. At this moment, Xue Xiang and the other two muttered in Mandarin in the car, and the middle-aged driver naturally discovered their identity as mainland tourists. He also heard Gu Changdao's words pedantic and stale, and the middle-aged driver couldn't help but be happy.

The middle-aged driver finished having fun. Suddenly, he remembered the identities of the two, and hurriedly closed his mouth. He turned around and said sorry in Mandarin. To say that the driver is so humble and polite, it is not that the Hong Kong people are of high quality at this time, nor that mainlanders enjoy special preferential treatment in Hong Kong, but that there is another reason.

It turns out that at this moment, mainlanders are mostly called "big circles" in Hong Kong, but these are all called behind the scenes, but they are rarely called in person. Let's talk about the origin of this big circle, which is nothing more than mocking the mainland for smuggling with smuggling with smuggling tires. But at that time, these people who could smuggling and dared to smuggling were all bold and resolute. After smuggling, they soon formed a gang on Hong Kong Island. They called "big circles" and were known for their unity and loyalty and ruthless actions. For a while, they were not as powerful as the Hong Kong people naturally did not dare to tease the "big circles" in person.

Xue Xiang and the others didn't know the truth, and they said it was okay. They saw that the middle-aged driver seemed easy to talk, and they also had to go to many hospitals later. They were afraid that changing cars would be troublesome, so they were even more rare that this was a driver who knew Mandarin, so they agreed to charter a car in the car. When the driver saw Xue Xiang, he took out nearly Hong Kong dollars and was happy. He became kind in his words. He turned into a tour guide and introduced the local scenery to the two.

With the introduction of acquaintances, it is natural and quick to do things. In more than an hour, I went all around the hospitals listed on the map. The reason why I went all around was not that there was no hospital that could perform the surgery for Dabao, but that there were many hospitals that could do it. Xue Xiang was choosing the best hospital with the highest success rate in the surgery. Finally, he selected the most famous Elizabeth Hospital in Hong Kong.

At 4:30 pm, Xue Xiang and Gu Changdao returned to the hotel. Because the middle-aged driver was satisfied, Xue Xiang simply threw out a stack of money to wrap the driver and the car.

Because Dabao's illness could not be delayed for a long time, at 6 o'clock in the evening, Dabao was admitted to Elizabeth Hospital. Xue reported to the mainland tourist here and took out a pass issued by the X-Hua Branch. Not only was he not discriminated against, but he was treated with courtesy. The hospital replied that he would prepare for the operation tomorrow, and said that the success rate of the operation was high, which was that it would take two to two years to rehabilitation treatment. Finally, he informed him of the operation fee and rehabilitation treatment, and he might get more than one hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars together.

Hearing this, Xue Xiang stopped the doctor's words, sold 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, and asked for surgery first. The doctor no longer talked about it. Seeing that he was so happy, I was afraid that he didn't care about money. But mainlanders are so rich now? Then the newspaper said that they couldn't eat enough and were not warm to wear. Isn't that nonsense?

If Xue Xiang knew that the doctor had regarded him as a wealthy man at this time, he would have to fall to the ground.

This time when he went to Hong Kong, Xue Xiang brought 10,000 yuan, and the remaining 2,000 yuan was left at home and handed over to Xue Lin for daily household expenses. This 10,000 yuan was in the Lingnan Foreign Affairs Department, but after leaving the relationship, he could only exchange more than 25,000 Hong Kong dollars (Hong Kong dollars are also considered foreign exchange reserves and are difficult to convert, so the exchange rate is not feasible).

Staying in a hotel, chartered a car, and eating, I made a lot of money. I spent another 10,000 yuan on surgery. The remaining money will not last for a few days. The most urgent thing is to sell paintings.

ps: The transition chapter is really boring. I speed up. It is not a sudden idea to come to Hong Kong, but a must. You will understand. This plot will end tomorrow, don’t be anxious. In addition, please vote for recommendation to help me. It’s not that I’m whining all day long. I really don’t have to. The only motivation for writing is to come! The subject matter of this book is sensitive, so there is less recommendation. Please support me to write it! (To be continued)
