There were also air rifles for shooting birds on site, and several veterans took turns using them to shoot birds in flight.
They were too far away to hear what they were saying.
Although he couldn't find Cheung Tze-keung, he could still talk to Kwok Siu-pak on the phone. Moreover, the fact that several veterans were shooting birds with air rifles, which seemed like just simple entertainment, allowed Cheung Tze-keung to discern their marksmanship.
So it goes without saying, anyone with eyes can see it at a glance.
Guo Xiaobai helped with the recruitment, while Zhang Ziqiang was interviewing new recruits for the next robbery.
He's quite shrewd; he knows that with the current massive military downsizing, there are veterans all over the mainland, and they're all capable fighters with excellent marksmanship.
There were many telescopes on the rooftop, and Chen Rou was holding one up, already observing the distance.
Song Yuanchao walked over, also holding up a display case. After looking at it for a moment, he asked Wang Baodao, "I heard they're all from Shenzhen. Do you know anyone among them? Can we establish a connection with them in the short term so we can talk to them and try to win them over?"
He was still thinking that Zhang Ziqiang would recruit them, and they would turn them against their cause, bringing those veterans back into the fold.
But Wang Baodao said, "It would be difficult to turn them to the side. Captain Chen also said that they have given up on themselves and there is no need to save them."
Song Yuanchao was a little confused and said, "They are all our comrades. They have only just arrived in Hong Kong. How much more degenerate can they become? Why not give them a chance to repent?"
Wang Baodao retorted, "No way, Mr. Song, you've been in Hong Kong for a few years and have seen more of the world than us. Tell me, if their casinos have moved into nightclubs and that's not considered decadent, then what is?"
The two were almost arguing when Chen Rou said, "Alright, Bao Dao, I'll be your witness. They're playing with something that your brother Song has never seen before."
He added, "You may not believe it, but he has never been to a casino or a nightclub."
Ji Xiaofeng turned around and tried to say, "So Chairman Nie..."
Song Yuanchao instantly switched to bodyguard mode: "My boss never goes to those kinds of messy places."
Wang Baodao exchanged a glance with Ji Xiaofeng and could only give him a thumbs up.
It's really strange that a big boss who controls half of Hong Kong's wealth doesn't go to casinos or nightclubs. They were speechless.
Wang Baodao will have to patiently solve it.
He said, "Guo Xiaobai placed a recruitment ad in a Shenzhen newspaper, hiring retired soldiers to work as bodyguards. Five of them crossed the border. During the conversation, one of them probably sensed something was wrong and withdrew. The other four followed Guo Xiaobai to Macau, but one of them resolutely refused to gamble, so Guo Xiaobai sent him away. The remaining three first lost everything at the casino, and then went to watch striptease shows and saunas after returning... They made every mistake imaginable. There's no point in trying to save them."
Song Yuanchao understood: "They're looking for women in that kind of place. What about their awareness and their party spirit?"
Ji Xiaofeng held up one finger: "Not just looking, but two for each person."
Song Yuanchao grinned: "Damn it, scum!"
A military uniform is a military uniform, and a person is a person, especially after leaving the military.
Song Yuanchao had also worried that if the bodyguard company were established, the first priority would be to continue the ideological work he had done before. For young people who had just come out of the army and had no knowledge of the outside world, Hong Kong was like a big dye vat, and lust and gambling were the easiest ways to corrupt people.
Since a total of five people came, and two of them quit halfway through because they felt something was wrong, it proves that these three can also quit.
But they didn't. When their boss took them to gamble, they gambled; when their boss took them to prostitutes, they prostituted.
Completely unaware of the danger, they were dragged into it.
Furthermore, soldiers naturally possess a kind of righteous indignation, like robbing the rich to help the poor and acting on behalf of Heaven.
Guo Xiaobai first led them to spend money like crazy and satisfy their desires, and then talked about robbing the richest man's house. The minds of those veterans would slide into a kind of paranoid madness. Hu Yong almost made that mistake.
It's quite a sad story. They got into trouble as soon as they left the army, ruining their lives. But they deserved it. Refusing drugs, gambling, and prostitution should be a red line in everyone's heart. They crossed it themselves, so who can they blame?
Moreover, their current state serves as a good warning to Wang Baodao and his group.
Once you get involved in drugs, prostitution, gambling, or prostitution, no matter who you are, your life is over.
Not to mention that A Yuan was out having fun with his mother again, in a place that was incredibly new and exciting for him, and he was so happy.
On the other hand, his father wasn't in such a good mood.
Nie Rong was also there, underground, with seven or eight oil-filled flashlights shining down, trying to open the box.
By the way, the box was made of old ironwood that had been soaked in oil. Its characteristic is that even if it is soaked in silt, it can be guaranteed not to rot or decay for decades. As for the time it had been buried, the Taoist priest calculated after opening the box that it should have been buried for at least thirty years. Inside, there was a wisp of ash, a tuft of hair, a few baby teeth, and some toenails.
Since retiring, Nie Rong has been studying Huang-Lao philosophy and the Book of Changes every day, and has come to understand some of it.
Seeing a wisp of ash drifting in the wind, he said softly, "This is a talisman. It must have dissolved because it's been there too long."
Looking at the teeth again, he thought for a moment, then suddenly his breathing quickened: "That, that might not be Ah Zhen's teeth, this poison, poison..."
Seeing his elder brother about to fall, Liang Lisheng quickly went to support him, saying, "Brother, hang in there, brother."
If he hadn't seen these things, it would have been fine, but now that he has, Nie Rong realized how vicious and unscrupulous his beloved concubine had been. And the witchcraft, whether it was effective or not, was buried under this building and was cursing the building's heir. How could Nie Zhen escape dying young?
