William's secretary, who was being told so clearly by Chen Xijiu, suddenly realized that she really didn't have much ability.
All eyes turned to them.
“He’s Chan Sai-kau, he has a lot of connections in Shau Kei Wan. Even Director William has to give him a second glance.”
“That’s right, Director William had already made all the arrangements perfectly.”
"The casino situation has been giving Director William a real headache these past few days. Perhaps Chen Xijiu can provide some clues."
Hearing their murmurs, William's secretary looked at Chen Xijiu helplessly and let him pass.
He deliberately opened the door to Director William's room. Chen Xijiu, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, casually walked in.
Not long after I went in, I saw William answering the phone, his face grim.
When Director William saw Chen Xijiu, he looked up at him.
The two nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting, and Chen Xijiu then walked directly to the sofa and sat down.
It's unclear what was said on the other end of the phone, but Director William's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, revealing his intense anger.
Chen Xijiu must have realized long ago that the British must have given him the order.
These purebred British people have a lot of pride in their bones.
When they first arrived to handle everything, they were actually completely overwhelmed.
"Okay, I understand. I will handle it immediately."
After William hung up the phone, he stood up and walked to the opposite side of Chen Xijiu.
The relationship between Chen Xijiu and Elena made William respect him to some extent.
The Governor of Hong Kong was indeed unmatched; even he had to give Chen Xijiu some face.
"Ah Jiu, what brings you here today? Didn't you go overseas to do business? Why are you back at this time?"
William's gesture of respect was something Chen Xijiu hadn't expected.
He went straight to the point and asked about casinos on Hong Kong Island.
Chen Xijiu's frankness impressed William.
Chen Xijiu didn't beat around the bush, after all, William was currently in a real bind because of the casino incident.
If I can help, I will naturally give him a way out immediately.
"The director is currently worried about the casino, but have you ever considered that it's very likely someone is deliberately causing trouble for you?"
Chen Xijiu's words made William's eyes widen instantly.
His hooked nose made him look more aggressive, and when he looked at Chen Xijiu, his scrutinizing gaze made even Chen Xijiu feel a little nervous.
"Ah Jiu, what do you mean by that? Could it be that someone deliberately caused trouble for me at the casino?"
Chen Xijiu smiled faintly, seeing through it but not saying anything.
Anyway, no matter what, Chen Xijiu really doesn't want to get involved in this open and covert struggle between William and Henry.
How many connections do they have?

"Director William should also understand that to gain a foothold on Hong Kong Island, it's not enough to just have authority."
“Director William has just arrived in Hong Kong Island and is certainly not familiar with the situation. When Henry was in charge, Brother Lok and his gang did indeed take a lot of benefits, which made them feel emboldened.”
As Chen Xijiu spoke, he stared intently at William.
In fact, he had long suspected that things would take a turn for the better, but the current situation was completely different from what they had imagined.
If we can get everyone else to resolve these issues quickly and efficiently in the short term, then naturally there won't be any problems.
However, all of this seems to be happening a little faster than they had anticipated.
The news from the assassins forced Chen Xijiu to strike first.
"Now that Director William wants to crack down on corruption, I'm afraid Henry and Brother Le will cause you a lot of trouble."
William's expression changed instantly at Chen Xijiu's words, and he looked at Chen Xijiu in surprise.
They never expected that the problems they were facing now would be so closely related to Henry.
As for Brother Le, he had already sent people to monitor him, but he still hadn't uncovered much of the truth about the casino.
He had questioned everyone at the casino and had indeed gathered a considerable amount of evidence of corruption and bribery.
These measures are not enough to completely eliminate Lok Gor, whose roots in Hong Kong Island are simply too deep.
Moreover, the four major families have already taken action, leaving William in a dilemma.
Even the British side has been putting pressure on him, if the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) cannot be successfully launched.
William will also be involved.
What Chen Xijiu said to him made William's eyes light up instantly.
"You mean you have a way to solve this whole thing? I trust you completely, so please don't let me down."
When William looked at Chen Xijiu, he suddenly felt a lot of anticipation.
Chen Xijiu nodded slightly and handed the copy of the agreement that Ah Zhi had given him directly to William. He wanted to do a business deal with William.
"The evidence I have can seal the fate of both Henry and Brother Le."
"This play they directed and acted in should naturally be kept under wraps, and I believe Director William will be very interested in it."
When William received the evidence from Chen Xijiu, his hand trembled slightly as he glanced at it before discarding it.
He never expected to be stabbed in the back.
Originally, when Henry was working under him, he had planned to give Henry a proper promotion.
I never expected it to turn out like this.
"Ah Jiu, you've really helped me a lot. I was so worried about this before, but thankfully we've been able to resolve all these problems now."
When William looked at Chen Xijiu, his eyes were full of admiration.
He suddenly understood why Elena had fallen for Chen Xijiu at first sight.
A person as capable as (Qian Nuo) is also very thoughtful when doing things.
“I have some advantages, and your evidence now is enough for me to turn the tide immediately.”
Facing William, Chen Xijiu did not hide his ambition.
The fact that he was able to hand over the evidence to William shows that he recognized William's current status in Hong Kong.
"Director William, you don't need to think that way. We're just in a mutually beneficial relationship."

Chen Xijiu got straight to the point, showing no lingering attachment.
Anyway, I never had any other thoughts about these things.
Once they've got all the collaboration sorted out, they'll definitely be able to establish a firm foothold in Hong Kong Island immediately.
"Speak, Ajiu, what do you want now?"
As William sat in his chair and looked at Chen Xijiu, he scrutinized him with great interest.
In fact, no one knew better than him that since Chen Xijiu was able to gain a foothold by Brother Le's side, he must have already paved the way for himself.
The fact that they're coming to me now means they have something to do.
As expected, Chen Xijiu looked at William and smiled.
"Director William is indeed a straightforward man. I will now take charge of those casinos that caused trouble before. I hope Director William can give me a chance in the future."
No one in the world doesn't love money. Chen Xijiu890 had already seen through William's true nature. Anyway, all these things are legal and compliant.
Even if the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) launches an investigation in the future, it will find no respect whatsoever.
Chen Xijiu watched as Director William slowly placed an agreement in front of him.
“This kind of thing will not happen again. I will also give a portion of the casino’s profits to Director William. How about we make money together?”
A verbal promise is far less reliable than a written guarantee.
Chen Xijiu learned a lot from Rose.
As soon as Director William saw Chen Xijiu, he knew that Chen must have come with a purpose.
Upon hearing Chen Xijiu's words, Director William was indeed tempted.
Henry made a fortune when he was a department head.
Although William had just been transferred back to the position of Commissioner of Police, he was still not satisfied.
He couldn't stoop to the level of Chen Xijiu and Brother Le, but if he could get a clean sum of money, why wouldn't he?
"Since you've already said that, I'll naturally grant your request. From now on, as long as it's your property, A-Jiu's property, I will definitely not let anyone cause trouble."
William is now eager to deal with Henry.
