Chapter 1810 Huge Change 2

Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and many things can only be reassured after seeing with one's own eyes; with the control of Fujairah, the town of Heiyun is no longer so important. But after all, it is the headquarters of the future group, and it is also the main office space; naturally, we should pay attention to it!

From Kwun Tong to Heiyun Town, you need to cross several regions, and the road conditions are not very good; not to mention that it is in disrepair, but it is not much worse. Once the construction of Heiyun Town is completed, the connection between the two places will definitely be closer; then the traffic pressure will be very heavy.

Originally, it only took half an hour by car; any traffic jam would take more than an hour; no amount of time is enough to waste. Even if the British agreed to build the road, they knew that Baozixuan paid for it; the surrounding people would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity, and it was reasonable to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

I don't want to be taken advantage of, but at the same time I want to increase the travel time between the two places; I must think of a surefire method.

When the car was driving halfway, Bao Zixuan saw an area surrounded; he suddenly thought of something, maybe a breakthrough has been found!

There is a Boundary Street north of Mong Kok, Kowloon, which directly divides the Kowloon Peninsula into two horizontally; the south part of the street is called Kowloon, and the north of the street is called the New Territories. The east corner of Boundary Street leads to Kai Tak Airport, and to the north of Kai Tak Airport is the famous Walled City of Kowloon, which is not controlled by Ying San.

The history of the Kowloon Walled City can be traced back to the Song Dynasty; and the Kowloon Walled City was really involved in the trend of history about the 23rd year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty, that is, 1843.

At that time, the British army had already occupied Xiangjiang, and Kowloon became the front line of the Qing Dynasty's frontier defense because of its geographical location.

In 1898, the British forced the Qing government to sign the "Special Articles on the Expansion of Hong Kong's Boundaries"; the Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories also became British colonies. However, the Kowloon Walled City was still under the jurisdiction of the Manchu Qing government.

After the demise of the Qing government, the political situation in China has been in a state of instability for a long time, with the warlords separatist, the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the War of Liberation. Therefore, the management of the Kowloon Walled City has been in a vacuum.

Due to the issue of jurisdictional ownership, the Xiangjiang police have no right to enter the Walled City, and the Huaxia side has no time to take care of the Walled City. This has gradually become a "three nos" zone where China does not care, Britain does not care, and the Hong Kong British colonial government does not care.

This is also the root cause of mixed fish and dragons and chaotic management in the Kowloon Walled City.

Due to the lack of government jurisdiction, a large number of refugees and homeless people gathered in the Walled City; the housing problem became their primary problem at that time. Because no one is in charge, private construction and random construction have become the most common sight in the walled city. Residents have no professional knowledge of construction, water and electricity; anyway, as long as the house can be built, it will be fine.

Many houses built later are supported by a few steel bars, and some don't even have foundations; they are built directly on top of existing low houses.

This has also caused the phenomenon of crowded buildings, the shortest distance between buildings is only a dozen centimeters.

As for the water and electricity, it is even more random, and the water pipes are connected casually; sometimes the water pipes leak due to material problems, and the whole building smells bad when the toilet is flushed. Even when going to the bathroom, you have to open an umbrella, otherwise you will be drenched in shit.

In addition to refugees and vagrants, many criminals also hid here; and then took root and took root here.

The special environment and the state of "no matter what" made the Kowloon Walled City a hotbed of crime. For a long time, social organizations basically controlled the entire Walled City.

The triad society, a branch of Hongmen and the successor of Tiandihui, is a social organization gathered in the walled city.

Although there is no government management, criminals will still be arrested under certain conditions; but they will not be sent to court for trial, but after confiscating illegal items such as drugs; deporting prisoners at an appropriate time.

In fact, most inmates were released after a day or two of incarceration; only those who committed extremely serious crimes were deported, though most returned afterward.

From 1941 to 1945, during the Japanese occupation of Xiangjiang, all the city walls were demolished in order to expand the open channel of Kai Tak Airport. After Japan surrendered, street sleepers began to live in the Kowloon Walled City, and successfully resisted the British government to enter the rectification in 1948.

Statistics; as early as 1952, inside the Kowloon Walled City, police records included 154 smoking dens, 7 gambling halls, 15 dog meat shops, and 11 brothels; there was also a theater that could receive 300 people a day, and staged two **** sessions every day dance performance.

From 1973 to 1974, the Xiangjiang police sent 3,000 people to forcibly enter the Walled City, trying to eradicate the gangster forces in the Walled City; unfortunately, they did not achieve too significant results. Later, the Walled City came back from a desperate situation. Reinforced concrete houses were built like mushrooms after a spring rain. Illegal extensions and unauthorized construction were serious, and the streets were as narrow as corridors. Residential water comes from eight public water pipes or wells. Because the buildings were completely unplanned, the sanitation of the Walled City was poor. In the early 1980s, it was estimated that there were 35,000 people living in Walled City, and the crime rate was much higher than the average figure in Xiangjiang.

In 1984, China and Britain signed the "Sino-British Joint Statement" to deal with the Xiangjiang issue; in 1987, the two countries jointly decided to demolish the Walled City and relocate residents.

Some people have calculated that the Kowloon Walled City had more than 50,000 residents before it was demolished; based on the area of the Walled City of 0.026 square kilometers, the population density of the Walled City is 1.9 million people per square kilometer, making it the most densely populated place in the world.

Both China and Britain, as well as the Xiangjiang government, want to dismantle the Kowloon Walled City; and have already given a clear time. This was indeed the case in the previous life. In 1993, all the current Kowloon Walled City will be demolished and changed to Kowloon Walled City Park.

From Kwun Tong to Tin Shui Wai, it is not necessary to go through the Walled City of Kowloon; but building a subway below will indeed save a lot of time.

Compared with other places, passing through the Kowloon Walled City; on the contrary, the cost will be lower. No one knows exactly who the houses belong to. It is basically occupied by community members, so it is difficult to say clearly.

However, 50,000 people is indeed a troublesome matter that needs to be properly settled.

If there were only 50,000 ordinary residents, Bao Zixuan would not be worried; he would be directly assigned to work in the Black Cloud Group; with good training, there would be no major problems.

But the people inside are too special, most of them are members of social organizations, and there are even many serious criminals; eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, cheating, abducting and stealing, it can be said that there is no shortage of everything. No matter how strong and capable he is, he still dare not keep these people by his side; Bao Zixuan is not that conceited.

Out of curiosity, Bao Shoufu asked the driver to stop; he also wanted to take a good look at this famous three-way area.

In my previous life, I have heard many legends about the Kowloon Walled City. Most of the crimes in Xiangjiang basically come from here; of course, for the sake of safety, I will not enter directly; just look outside.

There are a lot of guns inside, and Bao Zixuan thinks that he is not yet invulnerable; there is no need to take risks.

Even if it is only viewed from the outside, it can directly reflect the living conditions of the residents inside.

Dirty and messy, except for these three words; I really don't know how to describe it.

As the most prosperous city in the world, there is such an area inside; it is really unimaginable.

The target is too obvious. The three cars are all tall and mighty; even if they don't know the specific models, they can still tell that they are expensive.

It is impossible for this kind of person to have anything to do with the Kowloon Walled City, especially when he saw the burly bodyguards standing beside him; there were many foreigners among them, and none of them came to find him unhappy.

Community members in the Kowloon Walled City may not be afraid of the police; but for the super rich, they will try to keep their distance as much as possible. If you really make people anxious, you can be smashed to death with money alone; there is no need to take risks in many things, it is not worth it at all!

A security guard from Heiyun's security department said: "Boss, this place is very dangerous~ www.mtlnovel.com~ It's better not to go in!"

I'm really worried that Bao Zixuan's head is so hot that he wants to go in and wander around. Security is definitely a big problem.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I'm just curious, I won't go in; there's no need to take risks!"

Hearing that the boss said no to enter, the bodyguard was relieved; but he didn't relax because of it. This place is very dangerous at first glance, in case there are people who don't have eyes; they can't bear the responsibility if something goes wrong.

The bodyguards around the richest man Bao are all well-trained masters; they are quite reassuring. However, following the principle that relying on others is worse than relying on oneself, he has never slackened for so many years; his combat effectiveness will never lose to any security personnel, which is also the source of confidence.

Three powerful and domineering luxury cars appeared where they shouldn't be, and it was difficult not to be noticed. At first glance, it looks like the configuration of a super rich man. Combined with Bao Zixuan's age, he is naturally more attractive to women.

If there is another choice, no one wants to stay in the ghostly place of the Kowloon Walled City forever; but sometimes people are so helpless, and the way out is not so smooth.

Being spotted may be one of the few opportunities.
