Volume Three, Chapter 289: Cheapskate (5,300 words...(1/2)
In Yuzhou, Nan'an District, at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, there is a teahouse. Three foot-picking men are hiding in the antique-decorated teahouse box, blowing on the air conditioner, chatting. One of them, a thin figure, is standing by the window.
Looking down, the little man was wearing an ice silk shirt with an expanded collar, which is very popular these days. The collar of the shirt was wide open, and a gold chain as thick as a little finger was exposed on his thin but strong chest.
"Hey, monkey, what kind of job did you take this time? Are we going to come here every day to play with that big-faced dishonor and lose money? During this time, you guys have lost hundreds of thousands, right?" One of them sat there.
The big man near the tea table picked up the teapot at hand and took a sip. He rubbed the mud on his feet with his fingers, then put it under his nose and smelled it. He couldn't help but trembled with sourness all over.
He asked the thin figure by the window.
The thin figure turned his head, glanced at the big man, and then glanced at the figure sitting opposite the big man, holding a pot of chrysanthemum tea and drinking non-stop, with a dull expression, and laughed and cursed:
"Just do the things you are asked to do. There are so many words. If the big boss gives you a job, you just have to lose the money. If I hadn't become a bit familiar here, it wouldn't be your turn to do this job.
Son, I earn money by tying gold flowers every day, where can I find such cheap good things?"
"Losing money is easy, isn't it? This is also a technical job. You have to lose and win. You also have to let that big-faced guy win money and have fun. It's not so tiring to serve grandpa. Let me tell you.
, you might as well let me take the job like I did when I went to Kyoto. Although it’s hard work, it’s not tiring!” The big foot-picking man wiped the mud from his feet under the mahjong table, curled his lips, and replied.
The man who was drinking chrysanthemum tea put down the ceramic teapot in his hand, looked at the big man picking his feet, then looked at the figure beside the bed, and said with a smile: "Big feet, remember to wash your hands later, I am from Hong Kong."
The gentlemen from the city can't join us. Don't think that the work in Kyoto was easy last time. If someone hadn't protected us, the brothers might have gone in long ago."
Hearing this, the big man known as Bigfoot became more energetic. He looked at the two of them and asked: "I thought I was the only one who felt this way at first. After doing this for a long time, Brother Zhu, Monkey, you two also have it."
?”
The two people called Brother Zhu and Monkey are Shouhou who disappeared for a while after returning from Kyoto and Liu Genzhu who just handed over a job from Chu Chengmu some time ago. As for the one called Bigfoot
It's an unfamiliar face, but seeing that he and Liu Genzhu can take over the work together shows that he also has two brushes in his hands.
Hearing this, Liu Genzhu picked up the chrysanthemum tea and took a big sip, then stood up and loosened his belt and said:
"I drink a lot of water every day these days, and my grandson named Xian has won a lot of money here, and he didn't even ask for a treat! When I just came back from Kyoto, I asked the big boss, and he said it wasn't him.
The manpower we sent, anyway, the Kyoto area is very evil, so it’s better not to take any work there. By the way, I heard that the few people we followed last time have already gone in?"
The thin monkey standing by the window nodded when he heard the words and said: "We went in. Not only the three Yu Bings went in, but also Zhao Sizhang from Ruixing. This news has been a long time coming. What have you been busy with lately, Old Liu?"
What? I don’t even know about this.”
"What else can I be busy with? It's not just about the big boss. Didn't I come to your place to take over work as soon as I finished my work recently? I didn't expect that after going around for a while, I was still working for him! How long have you been taking over here?
Already?" Liu Genzhu smiled, walked to the window, and looked down a few times. According to his experience in the past few days, it was almost time for Xianjing, his grandson, to go down the mountain.
Hearing this, Shouhou touched his bald round head. Ever since Gou Dong gave him a round head shave last time, he fell in love with this hairstyle again. He lowered his head and looked outside the teahouse and saw a black car.
Lexus was slowly approaching from the road outside the teahouse, smiled at Liu Genzhu, and said:
"It's been a while. After I brought those old gangsters back from Kyoto, I've been saving money and losing money here. Someone's here, Bigfoot, go wash your hands. Don't forget this
It’s what the big boss told me in the past two days.”
Xianjing was in a really good mood during this period. Ever since he started working with Li Jiuge, he had been enjoying and drinking spicy food every day, going in and out of various high-end clubs.
The only thing that made him a little dissatisfied was that the boss Li Jiuge was a bit picky. Ever since he came back from Hong Kong City to pimp him before the Chinese New Year, he has not been able to get a few big bucks out of his hands. Just follow a little bit.
When he mentioned this matter, he turned against him and said that he didn't handle the matter for him. Why did you mess up the relationship between men and women and let your parents know about it? How can you blame me?
Some time ago, Li Jiuge found a team of men from nowhere. They were very tough. Just by looking at their eyes, you could tell that these people were desperadoes. He lived with Li Jiuge in the small courtyard in Nanshan.
I don’t even dare to ask Li Jiuge for a theory. Sometimes I feel suffocated just thinking about it.
Originally, after this group of people arrived, Xianjing thought that his position would be in jeopardy. After all, he knew best what kind of material he was. Except for one person who could talk a little, he couldn't lift it with his hands or carry it on his shoulders.
Who would have thought that Li Jiuge, an old pervert, actually dispatched all the people in one go, and then they disappeared into the Tibetan area as if they had evaporated. Until now, they have not been able to find out where they went.
Xianjing almost laughed out loud on the spot when he learned the news.
Ever since that group of gangster-like men disappeared, Li Jiuge was like a frightened bird during this period, constantly asking for information everywhere.
But both Chen Gonghua and the man in the city comforted him by saying that the transaction between him and Chen Gonghua was a normal business investment and there was nothing to worry about. Moreover, there was this kind of fight between the No. 1 and the No. 2 in the city.
, is a common thing, and it will return to normal after a while, so I managed to stabilize him.
But having stabilized, Li Jiuge seemed to have thought about returning to Hong Kong City, but for some unknown reason, this old pervert finally gritted his teeth and nailed himself to Yuzhou.
Isn’t that right? He sent himself down the mountain to Beikuang District to inquire about the news. If there was any news to inquire about in this hot day, he might as well hide in a teahouse and play cards. Even if the Beikuang District was left for him by someone named Huang.
Retreat, what does this have to do with you, Li Jiuge? Can you, a small businessman like you, use the way of a dignified mayor of Yuzhou? It’s funny!
Xianjing, who had recently won hundreds of thousands, felt very excited when he thought of the scapegoats upstairs. He found a quiet spot downstairs of the teahouse to park his car, rubbed his hands, and trotted upstairs.
"Hey, are all the brothers here? What are you talking about?" Xianjing opened the door to the private room and walked in. He saw three enemies fighting against the landlord. He rubbed his hands again and made a few points.
As fake a smile as there is, I leaned over.
"Mr. Xian is here? Wait a moment, until we finish this round. We have nothing to talk about. A few days ago, a relative of Lao Zhao did something wrong. The police were looking for him everywhere, but they couldn't find him.
, where do you think this grandson is hiding?"
Monkey was sitting at the top, holding a toothpick in his mouth. He looked at the cards in his hand, rolled his eyelids, and greeted Xianjing who walked into the box door. During this time, he had been preparing for the game.
Everyone has changed back and forth several times, but he has never changed. Therefore, he and Xianjing have become quite familiar with each other, and his words are not very polite.
Hearing this, Xian Jing pulled a stool and sat next to the monkey. He looked at the cards in his hand, pointed with his finger, and said: "How many times have I told you, don't call me Mr. Xian? I'm the boss."
You have to go out to run errands for the boss on a hot day! Brother Monkey, here comes the plane! I guess Lao Liu has all the single chips in his hands, and he will definitely not be able to take them. By the way, where did you hide just now?"
Liu Genzhu, who was sitting on the left side of the monkey, heard this and rolled his eyes at Xianjing, saying:
"Where else can you hide? Just under the nose of the police! No one would have thought that Lao Zhao's relative would actually hide in the detention center. The police even went outside to look for him. Can they find him? Mr. Xian! Watch.
Chess does not speak to a true gentleman, do you understand?"
"Hide in the detention center? This is a good way, it's dark under the light! But according to your mainland saying, you have to have connections in the police station, right? Hahaha, Brother Monkey, Old Liu is in a hurry, he will definitely not be able to take it."
When Xianjing saw this, he didn't care and instead laughed loudly.
"Well, Lao Zhao's brother-in-law is the director of the detention center. If you put someone in there, you won't be able to tell unless you check the number deliberately. I just listen to you. Come on, plane! Lao Liu, can you take it?" Monkey
Hearing this, he pulled out 3738 from the poker, took two single cards, and asked.
Hearing this, Liu Genzhu lowered his head and looked at the cards on the table, saying that he couldn't afford to pick them up, and his big brother also shook his head.
Not long after, the monkey, under Xian Jing's command, gave away all the cards in his hand. Then the three people adjusted their positions again, changed a deck of cards, and invited Xian Jing, who was watching the game, to play.
Gold flower.
After playing for a while, the monkey lowered his head and saw that there were not many red tickets left in the stack of red tickets in front of him. He then turned his head and looked at the red tickets in front of Liu Genzhu and Big Foot. There were not many left.
In front of Xianjing, as expected, there was another thick stack.
Pretending to be casual, the monkey looked at Xianjing, who was staring at the cards in his hand and carefully rubbing the cards, and asked: "Mr. Xian, you always say that you work part-time, but we have not known each other for a long time.
It’s short, I’ve been seeing you running down the mountain every day, and I haven’t seen you do anything serious? How can you do a part-time job like this?”
Hearing this, Xian Jing held a cigarette in his mouth and carefully rubbed the hole card behind the two playing cards with his thumb until a black heart came out.
He couldn't help showing a hint of joy and said casually:
"I really work, but my boss is a little timid. He doesn't dare to go down the mountain, so he always orders me to run around. The weather in Yuzhou is hotter than that in Hong Kong City. He blows the air conditioner on the mountain.
I run errands for him, who is not the son of his biological father? Is he Li Jiuge Jingui? Bah! I am not bragging, who is not a boss in Hong Kong City? Brothers, do you think this is true?
?”
When the monkey heard the words, his eyes flickered, he looked at the red ticket in his hand, and picked up his trump card, imitating Xian Jing's appearance, rubbing the cards, and said: "That's true, if we have a chance, we
When you and I go to Macau to play, do you always want to show us the way? But if you play with us every day, aren't you afraid of delaying your boss's business? "
Xianjing observed the monkey's facial expression without blinking and said without thinking:
"It's easy to lead the way. What can he do? Why don't you ask me to check whether the intersections in Beikuang District are fortified every day? Let me go to Huang... Brother Monkey, did you laugh just now? Let me tell you,
It’s useless, you have all the colors, but you can’t afford my cards, so stop struggling.”
"Hey, I still don't believe it. Your kid can get three spades, so I'll follow..." After hearing this, the monkey looked at Xian Jing calmly, flipped the cards in his hand, and picked them from the red ticket in front of him.
He picked up a few pieces, threw them among a few people, and said.
While Monkey and others were chatting in the teahouse, Chu Chengmu was having a meeting in the conference room of Qinghu Real Estate Company. As he said to Bai Fangyu in the morning, he would not interfere in the daily management of Qinghu.
, it is most dangerous for an outsider to command an expert, but Chu Chengmu still has to become familiar with the company's manpower.
Throughout the meeting, in addition to An An's introduction, Chu Chengmu greeted the participating employees, especially several managers with professional titles in construction, and said a total of 5 sentences.
The first sentence is, I am Tianwang Chucheng Mu! The second sentence is, everyone should try their best to complete the projects in hand and deliver the houses on time and quality! The third sentence is, with me here in the future, Qinghu will not lack high-quality projects.
Please stop eating this kind of leftovers from now on! The fourth sentence is that An An will be responsible for the daily management of Qinghu Company in the future! The fifth sentence is to adjourn the meeting!
After saying 5 sentences, leaving Qinghu employees looking at each other in the conference room, Chu Chengmu and Bai Fangyu left the conference room together.
"Leave now?" Standing at the door of the elevator, Chu Chengmu spread a cigarette to Bai Fangyu and asked.
Bai Fangyu took the cigarette and lit it, turned to look at the gate of Qinghu Real Estate Company not far away, shook his head and said:
"Leave tonight. Boss, since you have no intention of incorporating Qinghu into our management system, it doesn't make much sense for me to stay here. Besides, with Qi Qinghua and Jiang Qi here, the rest is just routine.
Meticulous work.”
"Boss, you want to poach my mentor. I contacted him. After hearing this, he was very interested and discussed the time with me. We will meet in Kyoto in early August. Is there any problem with the time?
"
