Chapter 14 Grab a booth
"Give me~, let me give me!" Li Zhang walked through the crowded crowd with a cane, and found that Douzi and his children were arguing with a tall and thin man with dark skin. However, the other party looked leisurely, Douzi and the others were excited, and it was obvious that the other party had the upper hand.
"What's going on?" Li Zhang walked over quickly and grabbed the excited Douzi and asked in a deep voice. At the same time, he looked at the tall and thin man on the other side. Although the other side was tall, he was very thin, with a hunched back, and with a deer-headed and mouse-eyed look, he looked like a large horse and monkey.
"Brother, Hou San not only robbed our business, but also our territory. This place has always been our stall place, but they took it away!" Douzi pointed at the big horse monkey opposite with a look of grief and scolded angrily.
"Don't talk nonsense, what does it mean to steal your territory? You said this place belongs to yours. Do you have a land deed? Did you write your name in this place?" The big horse monkey looked at Douzi with a sneer at this time, and at the same time he also looked at Li Zhang a few times.
Li Zhang was also looking at Hou San at this time. He had only heard Douzi talk about the other party before, but he had never seen him. Now he looked like a standard gangster. Although the stall on the dock did not have a name, it usually belongs to whoever takes the first one unless the other party quits. Moreover, Hou San just grabbed the business of Chelu yesterday, and today he came to occupy Li Zhang and his stall. It was a very bullying!
"Hou San, I've fought for you!" Before Li Zhang could speak, Huozi roared behind Douzi, picked up a kitchen knife in the car and wanted to fight Hou San. This kid had been trying to do something just now, but Douzi pulled him to the back, but he still broke free.
"Let me go!" Seeing Huozi rushing out with a knife, Li Zhang immediately roared.
Although Huozi was impulsive, he was the most convinced Li Zhang. Seeing him getting angry, his feet stopped suddenly. Douzi then followed the situation and snatched the kitchen knife from his hand.
Hou San is worthy of being a slut in this area and is very brave. At this time, he smiled at Li Zhang without changing his expression and said, "Okay, if you want to do something, please accompany me, but don't blame me for bullying the small ones at that time!"
Seeing Hou San's arrogant appearance, people around him were also talking, especially many people knew Douzi and others. They knew that it was not easy for these orphans to make a living, but Hou San was a local snake in this dock, and ordinary people dared not provoke him at all, so naturally no one dared to step forward.
However, Li Zhang looked at Hou San at this time a little strange, and he even felt a little intimate about the scene in front of him. Don’t get me wrong, Li Zhang has no special hobbies, but he thought about the time he spent with those black uncles in Africa in his previous life.
It’s not that Li Zhang is racially discriminatory, but that the Africans are really not worthy of sympathy. They are not only lazy and stupid, but also want money. The officials in the government are like gangsters. Extortion is very common. In front of him, Hou San is relatively naughty, and his words and actions are exactly the same as those niggers. Thinking of the years he worked hard in Africa, although it was very hard, Li Zhang still missed him a little.
Li Zhang was so experienced when dealing with such a gangster. He suddenly smiled at Hou San and said, "Hou San, you stole our business from Chelu, but your business will not last long, because there is a secret to making Chelu..."
When Li Zhang spoke at the end, his voice became lower and lower. Although Hou San was a slut, he spent as much as he earned. Now he was pointing to the business of Zheluo to make money for himself. However, he didn't expect that Li Zhang actually said Zheluo had a secret, which made him immediately bent down to hear clearly. This was also a human instinctive reaction.
But at this moment, Li Zhang suddenly reached out and grabbed Hou San's shoulder, then whispered a few words in his ear, but Hou San's face changed drastically after hearing this, and even took a few steps back "dial" in a row.
"You...you..." Hou San pointed at Li Zhang but couldn't speak. There was even a hint of fear in his eyes, as if in his eyes Li Zhang was not a child, but a demon.
"What are you?" At this moment, I suddenly saw a crowd, and then Lu Wu walked in with a knife, looked at Hou Sanyi and said with contempt, "Hou San, you are so brave that you even dare to bully my nephew. Do you want to go in and have a few days of jail?"
"Lu...Lu Bantu, I'm doing business seriously, why do you... arrest me?" Hou San's rascals are most afraid of people like Lu Wu. In fact, he knew that Li Zhang had a relationship with Lu Wu before, but Zheluo's business was too tempting. In addition, he felt that Lu Wu would not stand up for a group of orphans, so he stole Li Zhang's business, but he didn't dare to do too much, otherwise he would have taken action against Douzi and other children just now.
"Haha, it is natural that there is evidence to arrest people in the yamen, but I believe that as long as Hou San continues to do it, there will be evidence sooner or later!" Li Zhang suddenly smiled and said something stupid, but Hou San's face became even more ugly after hearing this.
"Give me the place out and get out!" Lu Wu scolded impatiently at this time. He had no good expression on his face toward Hou San. He could get the other party into jail if he found a reason. In a place like a cell, he would clean up the other party as much as he wanted.
Hou Sanshi was afraid of Lu Wu, but he was even more afraid of Li Zhang at this time, especially when he thought of the words the other party said in his ear just now, which made him feel even more chilling. He just stole the other party's business, but the other party wanted his life. The most important thing was that the other party had the ability and did not have to bear any responsibility. This was what made him most afraid of.
"Let's go!" In the end, Hou San was convinced and turned around and ordered. When the few rascals who were setting up stalls saw the boss say something, they immediately packed up their things and gave up their seats. Douzi and the children also cheered, pushed the car forward and started setting up the stalls.
"Dalang, I only learned yesterday that Hou San had robbed your business. Should I find a way to get the business back?" Lu Wu pulled Li Zhang to the side and said, "There are many things in the yamen, so it is impossible for him to pay attention to Li Zhang all the time. However, when he learned that Hou San had robbed Li Zhang's business last night, he immediately took time to come today to support Li Zhang.
"Uncle Wu has been bothering, but the Cheluo business is just a stopgap solution before. I didn't plan to do it for too long. Moreover, I have prepared a new business and will open today. Uncle Wu, do you want to try it?" Li Zhang first expressed his gratitude to Lu Wu, and then smiled and pointed at Douzi, who was busy with work, and said to others.
"New business?" Lu Wu was stunned when he heard Li Zhang's words. He did not expect that Li Zhang would be able to start a new business in just two days.
"Not bad, Uncle Wu, didn't you praise the delicious water I made before, so I made more boiled water to sell it. The price is not expensive. People come and go on the dock, so there should be some business!" Li Zhang explained with a smile.
"Get into the water? This is a good deal!" Lu Wu thought of the pigs I ate at Li Zhang last time. Although this thing was a cheap meat, Li Zhang made it very delicious and could not taste the strange smell of pigs in the water. It was even more delicious than mutton.
"I haven't had breakfast yet, so I'll give me half a pound of large intestine!" Lu Wu immediately ordered again. First, he was a little greedy for the large intestine made by Li Zhang, and second, he wanted to take care of Li Zhang's business.
Li Zhang agreed immediately, and then asked the beans to weigh the large intestine and slice it. At this time, Lu Wu also bought two big cakes from the side, broke them open and pinched them on, and the mouth was filled with oil. The taste was even better than last time.
"No, take the money!" Lu Wu opened his mouth and ate a pancake in a few bites, then took out a few copper coins from his arms and photographed Li Zhang's hand and said.
"Uncle Wu, you don't have to give money, even if I invited it!" Li Zhang was embarrassed to accept Lu Wu's money at this time, and immediately sent the money to the other party.
"Your new business just opened, and you want a lottery ticket. How can you give it for free if you want the first order? Accept it!" Lu Wu finally said in an orderly tone. Li Zhang could only accept it helplessly when he heard this. He didn't care about anything that was lottery tickets or not, but he could not refuse Lu Wu's kindness.
Seeing Li Zhang accepting the money, Lu Wu was about to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and asked Li Zhang curiously: "By the way, when I came here just now, I saw you say a few words to Hou San, but it scared the kid so much that he took a few steps back. What did you say to him?"
"What can I say to him is nothing more than that I am Uncle Wu's nephew. You can scare Hou San away with your prestige. If it weren't for you, we would have to swallow our anger today!" Li Zhang immediately smiled and flattered Lu Wu.
"The little guy doesn't say a word of truth!" Lu Wu didn't believe Li Zhang's nonsense at all, because he knew his weight. Hou San was indeed afraid of him, but he was not as good as he could retreat as soon as he heard his name.
Faced with Lu Wu's dissatisfaction, Li Zhang smiled again, neither explaining nor denying it, which made Lu Wu unable to do anything to him. In fact, after spending this period of time, he found that Li Zhang had changed a lot, especially his own opinion. As long as he didn't want to do something, it would be useless for you to force him.
"Okay, I'll leave. If you have any questions, go to the yamen to find me!" Lu Wu immediately patted Li Zhang on the shoulder, then left the dock while eating pancakes. Li Zhang also watched him leave.
