"No, I have already determined that you are the boss of my Arataki Itto!"
Tiehanhan's voice was loud and loud: "From today on, in front of the boss, I will no longer call myself my uncle. I will have the most basic qualities of a younger brother!"
"Your Excellency Samurai, you will be the boss of our Arataki Sect from now on!"
"Boss, my little brother Arataki Yidou wants to say hello to you!"
Gu Sanqiu raised his forehead and said, "By the way, even if you call me boss here, I have a question for you."
"Boss, tell me, I will tell you whatever I know!"
"Do you know what my name is?"
"Uh...well, I really don't know what your name is."
Arataki was stunned for a moment, and then bowed with great force.
"I'm very sorry. As my little brother, I still don't know what your name is. I deserve death!"
"It's not that he deserves death."
Gu Sanqiu raised his head and said, "My name is Long Hai Xuanze. Anyway, just don't give me any weird nicknames."
He didn't want to have the title of "Long Hai the best in the world" on his head. Just thinking about it would make him extremely ashamed.
"Okay, Boss Longhai!"
"Forget it, let's be the boss."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "Since you are the boss, I will tell you that starting from today, your lifestyle must change."
"Whether it's because you want to meet the person you like, or for someone else, you must make changes in your life of doing odd jobs."
"From today on, you are no longer allowed to live a life of just living one meal and worrying about the next."
"Well, Boss Long Hai, if we don't do this, we won't be able to find a serious job in a short time."
Ma Zai No. 1 looked embarrassed: "To be honest, even if we work hard from now on, it is impossible for us to find a decent job. After all, we have no savings."
"How about this."
Ma Zai No. 2's eyes lit up: "The three of us will continue to do odd jobs, and then let the boss and brother Arataki start working hard now. We will work hard to save money to provide the funds needed for the big brother's efforts!"
"This seems to be a solution!"
"No, who would I become? I firmly disagree with this plan!"
Arataki Yidou blushed: "I will never agree to this plan. Everyone must advance and retreat together!"
"That's right, this plan won't work."
Gu Sanqiu said: "Besides, I told you to say goodbye to your past way of life, and I didn't ask you to engage in complicated operations."
"First tell me what the current gang composition is in Hanamizaka."
"Gang?"
Arataki was stunned for a moment, and then his tone was disdainful.
"It's nothing more than some soldiers and generals. I can take care of them all with one hand."
"I didn't ask you to explain it in terms of force, I was talking about what they depend on for a living."
"How do they make a living? Strictly speaking, apart from collecting protection fees, many of them still work part-time, or else they just stay at home."
Oh, he knows this. The classic little gangster does nothing but stays at home and chews on his old age.
"anything else?"
"Well, there are some that are less common. They have relationships with certain big figures in the inner city. They can get subsidies every once in a while, and they also have commissions and other things to make money."
"Commission? You mean they have a group of thugs in Hanamizaka?"
"Well, my mother-in-law said, those guys are not really thugs. At most, they have a group of barely useful subordinates. They are not as powerful as those thugs."
"But, my mother-in-law also said that these people who raise gangsters in the outer city to do things for them are probably not the real big shots in the inner city. At most, they are some nouveau riche, or people with dirty hands and feet."
Ma Zai No. 3 scratched his head: "Originally, there were people from Brother Arataki who had contact with him, but my mother-in-law asked us not to deal with those guys, so we refused."
"That's right, we in the Arataki sect disdain to associate with those guys who oppress good people and do evil things to support themselves!"
"Very good, do you know how a gang can develop and grow?"
Seeing the confused expressions of the three of them, Gu Sanqiu could only helplessly shake his head.
"Except for some indescribable relationships and ways, the best way for a gang like this that cannot be officially recognized to grow stronger is to eat gangsters."
"The black eats the black?"
Arataki was stunned for a while: "But our Arataki faction usually doesn't do anything, so why are we divided into that side?"
"Uh, could it be that I won the children's candies and snacks by playing a game?"
"That's not the reason."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "Remember, some things are not decided by you, but by your external identity."
"You claim to be us now. We claim to be members of the Arataki sect, so even if we do nothing, others will naturally be wary of us."
"Because once your name is given, it means you are connected to those things, and it is impossible for others to treat you like an ordinary person."
"Everyone in the world is still wary of strangers, let alone gang members who may be bad guys. That's it."
Gu Sanqiu continued to explain: "For example, what I just told you, for those of you who know the reasons, the reason why I want to abolish the national lockdown order is very pure, and I have no ill intentions towards Dao Wife."
"But to those who follow the Tianling religion, I am the sinner who wants to undermine Dao's wife's stability. I am someone who must be arrested and hacked to death."
"The people above me don't care about the reason why I want to abolish the national lockdown. What they care about is what my background is, because this is the rules and regulations of their work."
"Understood?"
"Boss, are you saying that our establishment of the Arataki Sect was a mistake in itself?"
Ma Zai No. 3 hesitated: "From what I said just now, I feel that this is what you meant, boss."
"no."
Gu Sanqiu sneered: "Whether it is in business or officialdom, these so-called alliances, factions, etc. are not uncommon. Then do you know why no one dares to challenge them?"
"Because they master many things that ordinary people cannot master?"
Arataki Yidou was thoughtful, he seemed to understand what Gu Sanqiu was going to tell them.
"Yes, or to put it more simply, they are very powerful."
"When you are strong, no matter what you do, as long as it does not exceed the bottom line, generally no one will care about you."
"But if you are very weak, but still think about some unrealistic things all day long, then you have violated certain regulations, and it will even have a huge impact on you."
Gu Sanqiu said seriously: "Connections, financial strength, technology, personal strength and even family background, these are all things that can make you strong."
"If not, follow the arrangements of this society and become a member of all living beings. Become an ordinary person who receives blessings every day and suffers from illness after retirement."
"Although I may miss the arrogant and blank dreams of the past during my occasional leisure time."
"But at least you can live a slightly more prosperous life."
"Whether you want to embrace everyone, or dominate the world, or even achieve some small goals, you will inevitably need strength."
