On the playground of a unit of Huadu Military Region

Leader Jing, a group of Huadu Military Region bosses, and the Lin family were standing on the platform. Below them, a total of 500 veterans were standing upright with excited and confused expressions.

What makes me excited is that I can finally go to Hong Kong to make a fortune.

They were also confused. What could they do in Hong Kong? Would they be scammed? Would they run into Yang Bailao? (If they knew there were still scammers in northern Myanmar)

Among them were 10 retired soldiers from Shuangxi Commune in Heping County. Since they were all from the same hometown, they lined up together and were even prepared to form a small team when they went to Hong Kong in the future.

Because when southerners go out to explore the world, they all know that only unity can help them survive in an unfamiliar environment.

Yu Shengyang, a senior official from the Huadu Military Region, stepped forward and began speaking into the microphone:

"Every one of you who appears here today was once a sharp knife on the battlefield and a hero. Today we are recruiting you back, and your specific mission is clear to everyone.

You must remember, whether you are in the mainland or in Hong Kong, you must always remember that you are a glorious soldier, and always remember that if there is a war, you must return when called and win the war, and put defending the motherland and maintaining national security first.

In addition, your trip to Hong Kong this time is equivalent to labor dispatch, and your status becomes employees of Lingnantang Pharmaceutical Factory. Your boss is Comrade Lin Sanqi next to me, and your salary will also be paid by Comrade Lin.

So after arriving in Hong Kong, all your actions will be under the command of Comrade Lin Sanqi. You will do whatever Comrade Lin tells you to do. You can rest assured that Comrade Lin Sanqi is one of us and will definitely not harm you. Do you understand?"

500 people shouted in unison: "Got it!!!"

"Next, we invite Comrade Lin Sanqi, Colonel of the General Logistics Department and Director of the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital, to address you."

Applause broke out.

Lin Sanqi stood in front of the microphone and smiled:

"Comrades, today we are meeting for the first time. We will be dealing with each other for a long time in the next few years, even decades. Therefore, our relationship is not just that of superiors and subordinates, but also that of brothers. We should get along like family.

Don't worry, everyone. Sending you to Hong Kong isn't about you fighting or anything like that all the time. On the contrary, you'll be working in a factory making medicines, as industrial workers. It's a relatively easy job, so don't worry, you won't be tired at all."

Hehehe~~~ The people below chuckled.

"When I asked everyone to go to Hong Kong, the main focus was self-preservation. We don't bully others, but others shouldn't bully us either. If others don't offend me, I won't offend others. Everyone keeps to themselves. This is the ideal state.

But Hong Kong is far from the rosy place everyone imagines. It's full of all sorts of monsters and demons. Therefore, our Lin family needs the ability to protect ourselves. At a critical moment, we need an armed force that can be deployed, charged, and defeated to sweep away everything.

When it comes to going to Hong Kong, I think the threats mainly come from two sources. I am stating this today so that my brothers can be aware of it.

One is a local Hong Kong society, to put it bluntly, it's just some street thugs. Don't be afraid of the Double Red Sticks, the Left and Right Protectors, and the Ten Vajras. The names are intimidating, but in fact, they are vulnerable to you brothers, and their fighting power is rubbish.

But there is another possible threat that everyone should pay attention to, because our Lingnantang Pharmaceutical Company currently has several drug patents, and will set up a laboratory in the future. With more and more patents, it is easy to attract the attention of agents from various countries.

You may not have heard of 007, but these individuals are at the top of their game, more formidable than special forces, and possess a wealth of new tactics. They deserve our attention and are a key threat to our defenses.

Of course, there's no need to be afraid. These agents usually work alone or in teams of three or four. But our initial 500 brothers, which may reach 2,000 in the future, can easily defeat a few agents with just a few men.

I'm saying this to tell you that working in Hong Kong isn't very dangerous. But our Lin family offers you very good treatment, including food and accommodation, a monthly salary of 500 Hong Kong dollars, and a bonus at the end of the year.

In addition, once our Lin family has established itself firmly in Hong Kong, I can assure you that your family members, your wives and children will also go to Hong Kong to reunite with you, and our Lin family will provide material support at that time.

Of course, if you have earned enough money and want to return home, we would welcome it and would never stop you.

But the premise of all this is that you must absolutely help our Lin family to preserve our property and ensure our personal safety. Because a considerable portion of the money our Lin family earns must be handed over to the state.

So don't just think you're working for the Lin family. In fact, going to Hong Kong is contributing to the country. This is a glorious and arduous task."

Leader Jing was startled and quickly tugged at Lin Sanqi's clothes:

"Comrade Sanqi, we have never publicly stated that we want to liberate Hong Kong. What you said is inappropriate."

Lin Sanqi turned off the phone and whispered back, "Isn't this just to cheer them up? What goal could be more tempting than national reunification?"

When Leader Jing heard this, he agreed. Unifying the motherland was what he wanted to do most.

Lin Sanqi turned around, turned on the microphone again, and said to the 500 veterans below:

"This trip to Hong Kong is a secret mission, so I hope everyone will keep it strictly confidential. In order not to attract the attention of Hong Kong, neither the country nor our Lin family will make unified arrangements for your trip to Hong Kong.

We will give each of you 1,000 Hong Kong dollars in a while. This is the money for your smuggling. After you get the money, you have to find a way to reach the city of Hong Kong and obtain a Hong Kong household registration as a refugee.

As for how to get to Hong Kong, there are two ways:

One way is to find a human snakehead with connections. After paying the money, you can take a boat to Hong Kong. The boat fare is about 300 to 500 Hong Kong dollars, and the 300 yuan range. The human snakehead will send you to the New Territories and then leave you alone.

If the amount is in the 500 yuan range, the snakehead will even find a way to take the person downtown, all the way to the police station, to ensure they can get their ID card. This is the most reliable and secure method.

Another way is to swim across the sea from Bao'an County to the Xiangjiang River on the other side.

The other side of the strait is the New Territories, which is full of various police, gangs, and human traffickers. The danger level is relatively high. Everyone should be vigilant and it is best to travel in groups.

Once you arrive in Hong Kong, you must do everything you can to get to the city. Once you are in the city, you can find any police station and get a Hong Kong household registration unconditionally.

This is very important, as it affects your ability to legally stay in Hong Kong in the future without being deported. The police in Hong Kong are very corrupt. If they find out that you don’t have an ID card, you may be sold to an illegal factory or forced to fight in an illegal boxing ring.

Once you've arrived in downtown Hong Kong and obtained your household registration, you'll head to the Lingnan Chinese Medicine Clinic on Kowloon Temple Street. This is my family's clinic. We'll then drive you to a resort hotel in the New Territories, which is where our camp is located.

Did you understand? Come on, brother, repeat what I just said. Remember, don’t speak Mandarin, say it in Cantonese.

The person named happened to be Lu Xuezhi from Shuangxi Commune.

Lu Xuezhi took a step forward and repeated nervously:

"Colonel Lin's intention was to give us 1,000 Hong Kong dollars as travel expenses to Hong Kong. Whether we went to find a snakehead or swam across the sea, we would first have to go to a police station in downtown Hong Kong to get our ID cards, and then meet at the Lingnan Hall Chinese Medicine Clinic on Temple Street in Kowloon."

Lin Sanqi gave a thumbs-up: "Very good, clear thinking."

“Also, there are bound to be accidents when sneaking across Hong Kong, but everyone must remember that if caught, you must not betray the country, betray other comrades, and certainly not betray our Lin family.

If you really can't do anything, just take the 1,000 Hong Kong dollars and return home safely. Don't get into trouble. Your own safety is your top priority. I'll be waiting for you in Hong Kong!"

At this time, an officer from the Huadu Military Region took the microphone again:

"Okay, now everyone, line up in two rows and start collecting your 1,000 Hong Kong dollars toll. After receiving the toll, find your own way to Bao'an County. The border troops will relax their control for the next few days and will not stop you, but if you need to cross the Hong Kong border, everyone will rely on their own ability."

At this time, a middle-aged officer with a handsome face came out, blew his whistle and began to give orders:

"Everyone, stand at attention. Now follow my instructions. Line up in rows of 250 people each. Move quickly and don't talk to each other."

Lin Sanqi took another look at the officer and thought to himself that his aura was so strong that he was obviously an elite in the army.

The entire Lin family came down from the platform. Jin Caifeng, Lin Gancao, Fu Muxiang, Lin Duzhong, Pei Xuehua, Lin Jiageng, and Lin Zhenzhen stood behind Lin Kushen and Lin Sanqi, father and son, to ensure that all veterans could see the appearance of the Lin family members clearly.

The tables in front of Lin Kucan and Lin Sanqi were each filled with 1,000 envelopes filled with cash.

Then the big boss Lin Kucan and the small boss Lin Sanqi personally handed envelopes to each veteran.

Wang Jin, Lu Xuezhi, Zhao Jintao and 10 others were all fellow villagers from Shuangxi Commune, so they naturally lined up together. When it was their turn to get the money, they came to Lin Sanqi and saluted him.

"Reporting to the commander, I am from Shuangxi Commune, Heping County, Shaoguan Prefecture. My name is Wang Jin, I am 34 years old, and I used to be a sniper in a certain unit."

Lin Sanqi returned the greeting and asked in surprise:

"A sniper, huh? He was an elite soldier back then. I heard it's very difficult for the army to train a sniper. Why would they let you retire?"

Wang Jin said sternly, "Back then, all our units were laid off. Even though my company was a spearhead, it was useless. We had to obey the state's arrangements."

After liberation, there were no more wars to fight, so of course we let the horses go and started to downsize. In the 10 years until the natural disaster, a total of half of the troops were downsized, which was a considerable scale.

"Is everything arranged at home?"

"Don't worry, Chief. Everything has been arranged at home, and they all support my going to Hong Kong. It's just that, hehe, they hope to get their salary as soon as possible." (End of this chapter)
