After the meeting ended, Xu Yun was led back to Yau Tsim Mong District by Sang Fei and the others. Because Xu Yun knew nothing about this place, he asked Sang Fei to bring him around to familiarize himself with the environment.
But Sang Fei didn't really want to be friends with Xu Yun, nor did he want to become Xu Yun's right-hand man. He had always been perfunctory.
After Xu Yun made this request, he quickly found an excuse and said that his family members were critically ill and he had to go to the hospital. Xu Yun didn't force him to stay and let him go.
Although Xu Yun knew that this guy was bullshitting, he still let him go. Xu Yun couldn't really understand the situation in Yau Tsim Mong District with such a guy. It was like a director bringing an actor who didn't care at all to make a movie. There definitely wouldn't be any box office.
Yau Tsim Mong District was an early development area in Hong Kong and Macao. It was famous for its typhoon shelters and temples because the people here still maintained the traditional lifestyle of Hong Kong and Macao to a large extent. There were also streets and alleys full of Hong Kong and Macao characteristics. It definitely allowed people to experience the life of the old Hong Kong and Macao people.
Xu Yun decided to explore the situation in Yau Tsim Mong District himself because he didn't want to go back "home". Yang Qi was still locked up in the basement. Xu Yun would definitely feel uncomfortable if he went back. It was better for him to walk outside and let Yang Qi have a good rest there.
Xu Yun believed that Yang Qi definitely didn't sleep well last night. Anyway, he sent enough water and food down in the morning, so Yang Qi wouldn't be hungry or thirsty.
Soon, Xu Yun had a basic understanding of the Yau Jianwang District. Through his own observations and inquiries from some of the residents, it was clear that these residents did not know that the person in front of them who was so unfamiliar with the Yau Jianwang District was actually the current boss of the place where they lived.
The economic activity of the whole area was mainly commercial, with some tourism and light industry. This was the main shopping and retail center of Hong Kong and Macau. The shopping malls and department stores in Tsim Sha Tsui, the retail shops and hawker markets in Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok really provided a variety of goods for Hong Kong and Macau residents and tourists.
Moreover, the tourism industry in Yau Tsim Mong District was very prosperous. There were many large hotels. This place was also the food and entertainment center of Hong Kong and Macao. There were many places to enjoy delicious food and all kinds of entertainment venues.
Therefore, You Jianwang District was definitely a rich place. The reason why Da Kun was able to obtain so much from this place and give it to Hongdong She was because the business activities in this place were very prosperous. Just the income provided by the entertainment venues was enough for Da Kun to show off in Hongdong She.
Therefore, this place was really a very fertile place. Wang Jinjin gave this place to Xu Yun to manage. Obviously, he had a very high trust in Xu Yun.
Xu Yun wandered around the bustling hawker market area in You Jianwang District. Looking at the people working hard here, he thought of the hard-earned money they earned. There was always a part of it that had to be given to Hongdong She. It was really not easy.
Almost all the large entertainment venues had shares in Hongdong She. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to have a foothold in this place.
Just as Xu Yun passed by the hawker market area, three or five tattooed youths with dyed hair attracted Xu Yun's attention. They ran rampant in the market unscrupulously. When they saw the fresh fruit in the fruit stall, they would pick it up and eat it. When they saw the beautiful girls in the stall, they would flirt with them.
These were the so-called protection of the society. Because of them, some of the hawkers here had a particularly hard time. Some people even had more than half of their hard-earned money taken away by these so-called protectors every day.
However, this money would eventually flow into Hongdong She's pocket because this was Hongdong She's territory. It was Wang Jinjin's world.
"Aiyaya, look at who this is! Isn't this the white-haired granny? " A guy with a head full of dyed yellow hair suddenly shouted. A few young men with dragon and tiger tattoos quickly rushed forward and surrounded a white-haired old woman.
There were several fruit baskets in front of the granny. They were all big and fresh oranges.
Obviously, the granny tried to leave, but unfortunately, she was old and her legs were not so nimble. She was directly surrounded by the youths.
The blonde looked at the granny with a sneer and said, "White-haired granny, you haven't paid protection fees for a while, right? Hey, hey, hey, we can't catch you. Do you think you're good at hiding? You didn't expect us to appear here at this time, did you?! "
It was two o 'clock in the afternoon. It was the hot time. Because the granny was old, her forehead was covered with sweat. Because of the nervousness just now, the granny was panting.
"I really don't have money … I haven't sold oranges for many days. I beg you, please give me a few more days, okay?" The granny looked at the youths with a pitiful face.
In this kind of weather, few people would come out to buy fruits. Everyone would choose to come out to shop when it was cooler.
The granny hadn't sold the oranges for several days. The reason was simple. When there were many customers, there would be many young men who collected protection fees. They were so demanding that the granny couldn't afford it. Therefore, she only dared to sell the oranges when the people who collected the money were not around.
However, there were too few people who bought things during this time, so it was difficult for her to sell many oranges every day. Sometimes, she didn't even open for business.
The granny was also a sincere trader. Once the oranges were about to go stale, she would not take them out to deceive people. She would give them to some of the neighbors' children before they went stale. The place she lived in was a place where only the poor would live, so the children there could not afford to eat fruits. The granny would give them all the fruits.
In this way, the granny's business would become worse and worse. It was difficult for her to sell her oranges. She had to go to the fruit market to wholesale. After all, it was a business. Therefore, the granny could hardly make much money, but these people still asked her for so much money.
"White-haired granny, look at your oranges. They are so big and delicious. Why can't you sell them?" A young man with a wolf head tattoo on his shoulder unceremoniously opened the oranges and ate them. "You just hand over the money honestly. Things will be much simpler. You only need two hundred Hong Kong dollars a day. It's not much. You have owed us for half a month, right? Three thousand yuan, give us the money! We will let you continue to sell them! "
The granny didn't make much money at all. Obviously, she couldn't afford three thousand yuan. If she did, she would lose a lot of money!
"I really didn't make any money. Please pity me. I really don't have any money." The granny was about to cry.
"Granny! Don't talk so much nonsense! We politely call you granny. Who do you think you are? "The yellow-haired man stared and scolded," We pity you. Who will pity us? We are also out to do things. Don't talk nonsense with us! "
"Yes, this place is not protected by us. Do you think you can sell fruits so peacefully?!" Another young man shouted, "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense! Give us the money and we will let you go. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving today! "
"I really don't have any money. I really don't have any money …" The granny kept saying.
At this time, the yellow-haired man was unhappy. He flipped the granny's fruit stall over. "You don't have any money?! If you don't have money, then don't come out to open a fruit stall! "
As he spoke, he angrily stomped on a few oranges and scolded them.
The granny looked at her oranges being stomped on. Her heart ached so much that she almost fainted. She had just bought them from the fruit wholesale market today. She walked so far just to save money for a few oranges. But now …
She had really given up on life. If it wasn't for waiting for her son, she really didn't want to live anymore. She really didn't want to live anymore …
"Stop!!!"
Xu Yun shouted angrily. He strode over to the scene. He really couldn't stand it anymore. Although he was sure that these young men were definitely members of the Hongdong Society, he still had to take care of these bastards!
Even if they wanted to collect money, they should find those middle-aged businessmen who could afford it. Bullying an old granny was really too much! He was too heartless!
