Chapter 140: It turns out, Lei Luo's official rank is actually so low.
Chapter 140: It turns out, Lei Luo's official rank is actually so low.
"I……"
Lei Luo found himself speechless.
"But if I, a Chinese, were to become governor, would Hong Kong still be theirs?"
"Haha, you've finally hit the nail on the head."
Old Mo laughed, "I've said it before, this is just a lease to them. We need to change this situation. Since it's a lease, we have no problem with them collecting rent, but they can't interfere with how they do it. So, you have to be the governor. Okay?"
Just like when I rent a house to you, I'm the owner, and you only have the right to live there. As for how to decorate, you'll have to ask me, the owner of the house. Is that alright with me?"
"Hehe, hahahaha..."
Lei Luo suddenly laughed, laughing so hard that tears almost came out.
He looked at Old Mo and whispered, "Brother Mo, do you have some misunderstanding about official positions in Hong Kong? You don't think I, the Chief Detective Inspector, am a very high-ranking official, do you?"
Old Mo was stunned.
You know what, when he watched movies in his previous life, he thought Lei Luo was really awesome. In fact, he didn't really know how high Lei Luo's official rank actually was.
"No, Brother Le, what do you mean?"
Lei Luo gave a wry smile and said, "Since we've come this far, let me tell you how powerful I am as the Chief Inspector of the Chinese Detective Agency. That way, you won't immediately suggest I become the Governor."
Old Mo nodded: "Okay, you tell us."
Lei Luo nodded and said, "Our Hong Kong police system has 4 major ranks and 15 minor ranks."
The ranks, from lowest to highest, are Sergeant, Inspector, Superintendent, and Commissioner.
Among them, officers are further divided into constables, senior constables, sergeants, and police station sergeants;
Inspector levels are divided into trainee inspector, inspector, senior inspector, and chief inspector;
Police superintendent ranks are divided into superintendent, senior superintendent, and chief superintendent;
The commissioner ranks are divided into Assistant Commissioner of Police, Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police, Deputy Commissioner of Police, and Commissioner of Police.
This is just the police system. Let's not even talk about the political officials above them. Guess what rank I, the Chief Inspector of the Chinese Police Force, hold?
Old Mo was completely confused and couldn't help but ask, "What rank? And what the hell is this Chief Detective Inspector?"
Lei Luo laughed: "It seems you really don't know. Well, let me tell you now, I'm the lowest-ranking Left Officer. I'm the head of the Left Officers, the Police Chief. Below me are three lower ranks: Chief, Senior Constable, and Constable."
I'm not even an inspector! In your mainland, I'd probably be less than a police station chief.
There are eleven levels above me before I reach the Commissioner of Police.
You're telling me now that you want me to be governor? Brother Mo, do you think I can trust you?
Old Mo was speechless for a moment, then asked, "Then how come you have so much power?"
Lei Luo glanced outside before whispering, "I'm the frontline commander, in charge of all the Chinese 'snakes.' All the Chinese 'snakes' listen to me; none of them are willing to listen to those foreigners. To put it bluntly, I've sidelined them."
They know it's difficult for them to manage the Chinese community, so as long as I do a good job and can stabilize the situation, they're willing to support me and collect their money without lifting a finger. Do you know how much money I, the Chief Chinese Detective Inspector, give them in bribes every year?
So to put it nicely, they don't want to do anything; they just want to collect their money without lifting a finger. If they remove me, they won't get any money.
To put it bluntly, I'm the one supporting them. That's why I have so much power.
Now you know how difficult it is for me to do this, right?
Old Mo looked at Lei Luo speechlessly. He thought to himself, "Movies are such a damn liar!"
You photographed a police station chief and made him look like a police commissioner.
Yan Zheng is actually just a police sergeant. The previous mention of "senior inspector" was incorrect; I'm correcting it here.
Old Mo asked in a deep voice, "Is it difficult to get promoted?"
Lei Luo gave a wry smile and said, "It's not just difficult, it's extremely difficult. Those foreigners have always been wary of us. Before me, the highest rank for a Chinese person was sheriff. My position as Chief Chinese Detective Inspector was hard-won!"
Eleven levels above me are all foreigners. Do you still want me to be the governor?
There are eleven levels above, with dozens of foreigners. Can you kill them all? Even if you do, will I be able to get up there?
"Hiss..."
Old Mo felt a toothache, but he never expected that the situation would turn out like this.
Chinese people in Hong Kong are indeed not treated as human beings.
Old Mo stood up and paced back and forth.
Given this situation, we need to change our plans.
Old Mo walked up, put his hand on Lei Luo's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, give me three years, and I will definitely make you the governor."
Lei Luo froze, reaching out to touch Lao Mo's forehead: "No fever, brother, can we be a little more level-headed?"
Old Mo said, "Brother, remember our three-year agreement. If I break my promise, I'll become your underling. I'll do whatever you ask. But if I succeed, you'll be my underling. Are you willing to bet?"
"Okay! Let's high-five to seal the deal."
Lei Luo extended his palm.
Old Mo also reached out and clapped his hands together with him, making a loud slapping sound.
Old Mo gave a bitter smile and said, "I'm the kind of person who never makes things difficult for my brothers. Now that we're brothers, I won't make things difficult for you either. I'm leaving the Lou family to you; help me take them down."
"If they can't kill me, then I'll take action. Anyway, the Lou family must be wiped out. Otherwise, I'll have failed my daughter."
Lei Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Alright, I promise you. I look forward to the day you make me the governor."
In fact, Lei Luo trusted Old Mo quite a bit, after all, he was the first person with special abilities he had ever met.
As long as Lao Mo says he won't harm him, then anything is fine.
After saying goodbye to Lei Luo, Old Mo went back.
When I got home, my daughter was already asleep.
Old Mo took out paper and pen and started drawing.
Fortunately, the five senses are good in this body I've transmigrated into, and the drawing skills are quite good too.
Based on his memories from his previous life, Lao Mo drew out the internal structure of the spring bed, and also marked out the materials used in the structure.
If a few of them are skilled craftsmen, they can study the material and recreate it.
The situation is not as optimistic as depicted in the movies, so we must take some concrete action.
After spending the whole night, the blueprints for the spring mattress were finally completed.
In fact, this thing is not complicated at all.
The next day, Lao Mo slept until ten o'clock. After breakfast, Wu Shih-hao called.
Old Mo instructed the Su brothers to take good care of their daughter, then drove his Mercedes to Kowloon Walled City.
For now, the Su brothers can only work as nannies for their daughter.
Soon, Lao Mo arrived at Kowloon Walled City, where Wu Shih-hao personally came downstairs to greet him and led him to a large hall.
At this time, there were already quite a few people sitting in the hall. Fatty Chao, Flower Rong, and Rose were all seated, with many of their underlings by their sides.
Wu Shih-hao appeared at the door with Lao Mo, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to them.
