Chapter 180 The End of the Empire of Money
After hanging up the phone, Li Shaoan ordered Huang Bingyao to let all the people below go back.
He promised to give them an answer within three days.
There is a small number of people who are unwilling to give in and want to continue inciting.
But most people did not dare to refuse Li Shaoan's order and dispersed after hearing his assurance.
What else could happen?
Continue to make trouble?
Do not make jokes.
They knew very well that if they really made Li Shaoan angry.
The companion next to him might draw his gun on him in an instant.
How many people were arranged by Chief Chinese Detective Li Shaoan?
No one knows, and no one dares to bet.
Looking at the people below who were still trying to incite, Li Shaoan ordered Dong Piao through the intercom:
"Catch all of those."
Upon hearing this, Dong Piu immediately ordered his men to surround the dozen or so inspectors.
"What are you doing? What do you want to do?"
"I am one of our own, so please don't mess around."
Only then did they feel afraid.
Dong Piu walked forward and sneered:
"Boss Li asked you all to stop and go back. Did you really not hear me or are you playing dumb?"
Then he didn't continue to waste time talking to them and just had them all pushed back.
“Brothers.
Mr. Li assures you that he will give you a reply in three days.
Now all go back, go back."
Seeing this, everyone could only disperse.
During these three days, the small group of stubborn elements in London finally compromised.
We know that if we persist, Hong Kong will really be out of control.
But they are not without demands.
They hope to bring all the family members back to London for trial and do not want them to be tried and serve sentences in Hong Kong.
Li Shaoan knew that this was already his limit.
Keep making trouble.
Unless he really doesn't want to play anymore and uses extraordinary means to confront Britain.
But Li Shaoan also had requirements.
That is to use all the money these people embezzled in Hong Kong on the construction of Hong Kong.
After careful inquiry in London.
Knowing that the total amount was only about 2 billion Hong Kong dollars, he agreed generously.
three days later.
A partial amnesty was issued from London.
Amnesty for all police officers charged with corruption before December 1972, 12.
After this, the offenders were arrested normally.
The incident was finally settled, and most of the police officers covered by the amnesty order cheered.
Many people even cried with joy.
As for those who are not covered by the amnesty, they can no longer make trouble even if they want to.
Among the five chief Chinese detectives, only Li Shaoan was safe and sound.
The other four all entered Stanley.
Except for Lei Luo, who will be released on bail for medical treatment in three months.
Li Shaoan also remembered that Yan Tong had stood on his side in the matter of Robinson.
And he looks older.
So let someone tell him that he would be out in three years at most.
There is nothing to say about the other three flags, such as Chen Zhichao and others.
Not to mention these little Karamis.
Don’t think about how many children of high-ranking British officials have been taken down by Li Shaoan, so how could he let them go?
The corrupt group, the Money Empire, was thus dismantled by the joint efforts of Li Shaoan, Murray MacLehose and others.
from now on.
We cannot say that there is no more corruption in Hong Kong, but at least it is no longer as blatant as before.
Many people know how much effort Li Shaoan put into this.
So he did not suffer no loss.
For example, the two honors that were originally promised, namely Justice of the Peace and Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire (GBE), are no longer available.
You have to know that it is now seventy years.
There are very few people who can obtain Justice of the Peace and GBE, even less than twenty Chinese.
Wireless's Shaw Yi-fu was only a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE).
It is one level lower than GBE, which shows how great the honor and power is.
Besides.
Davidson, who could have been promoted directly to the position of Commissioner of Police, became Deputy Commissioner of Police (Operations).
If Davidson is promoted to Police Commissioner, he can also go straight to the position of Deputy Commissioner of Police, but now neither is possible.
Many people think it is impossible.
In fact, it is entirely possible.
You have to know that Britain nowadays actually doesn’t pay much attention to Hong Kong. Lijiaopo is much more important than Hong Kong today.
So as long as the money is in place, everything is possible.
But it's not that he is not moving at all now. After all, no matter how powerful those people are, they are still in London.
They are still very clear about Li Shaoan's influence in Hong Kong.
Therefore, Li Shaoan was promoted to Assistant Commissioner of Police and Director of Kowloon West Region.
Li Shaoan didn't care at all.
The current Commissioner of Police is Stephen Shih, who was formerly the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Management).
Most importantly, he also has business dealings with Li Shaoan.
There is absolutely no difference between his taking the position and Davidson taking the position.
Take advantage of this opportunity.
MacLehose intends to reform the current police force and adjust the senior management structure of the police force.
At the suggestion of Li Shaoan.
Completely adjusted in the direction of the modern Hong Kong Police Force.
The plainclothes team was changed to the serious crime team.
The anti-corruption department within the police force was changed to the Internal Investigation Department.
Several new departments were established.
For example: the Public Relations Department, the News and Publicity Department, and the famous anti-gang group O-Ji, etc.
This reorganization was also strongly promoted by many foreigners.
They all wanted to split the power in Li Shaoan's hands, so they added so many departments.
He wanted to use this method to dismantle the power that he originally concentrated.
Redesign numerous obstacles to keep each other in check within the police force.
Unfortunately, all these actions were within Li Shaoan's expectations.
He also took advantage of the situation and promoted all of his former subordinates.
The original three general regions have become the current six general regions.
Kowloon is divided into East Kowloon and West Kowloon, the New Territories are divided into North Region and South Region, plus the Island Region and the Marine Region.
In addition to him becoming the Director of Kowloon West Department.
Lee Siu-on also promoted Wong Bing-yiu to be the Director of Kowloon East Police Station (Chief Superintendent).
Davidson's confidant was appointed Director of Hong Kong Island Police, and Tung Piao was promoted to Chief Superintendent and Deputy Director.
The Director of the New Territories North Office is Li Shutang and the Deputy Director is Li Junxia.
The chief police officer of New Territories South is Hui Ki-an, but he also placed his parasite Da in the position of Deputy Commissioner of Police as Senior Superintendent.
As for the Marine Police Region, although he does not have anyone serving as the Commissioner or Deputy Commissioner, most of the middle and lower-level staff are his people.
As for Xiao Hu and Li Ying, there are naturally arrangements for them personally.
He took the opportunity to arrange them to serve as district directors in various districts.
The reason why it went so smoothly was also thanks to the strong support of Murray MacLehose.
Moreover, many high-level officials in various districts were purged, and only those under Li Shaoan's line were the cleanest.
If we don’t let them go, who will go?
Of course, Britain wants to transfer people from its home country to serve as senior executives.
But after Li Shaoan placed another order for a million-ton sea-going vessel.
In addition to members of the House of Commons and the House of Lords, many people, including those from the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Industry, are speaking for him.
Therefore, we could only allow him to be promoted across levels and place his cronies in posts.
That is to say, it was only the 1970s and Hong Kong's economy had not yet developed rapidly.
If it was the 1980s, when Hong Kong's economy was booming.
Even if Li Shaoan added another 10 million tons of sea-going ship orders, London would never allow him to promote and place his cronies at will.
Of course there is another important reason.
The children of the big families in Britain are now scared by Li Shaoan, Murray MacLehose and others, and are unwilling to come to Hong Kong to gild their reputation.
They would rather go to Lijiaopo.
Many British officials in Hong Kong and London strongly supported MacLehose's reform of the police force, but the result was revealed in the end.
I found that it was just a change of loneliness.
Li Shaoan's power became even greater.
It can even be said that the police force has completely become his one-man show.
Although Xu Qian, Li Junxia and others are not his confidants, do they dare to disobey him?
This is also the reason why Li Shaoan doesn't care about the Justice of the Peace and the GBE medal.
With such great power in his hands, all these honors will be put on his head sooner or later.
