"Brother Lin, please forgive me for the stupid thing I did before...I won't say it was because of me. After all, it was because I was short of money that I took over his job."
"If you haven't relieved yourself last time, come and beat me again. Anyway, I really know I was wrong."
Zhou Li's words were very sincere.
Originally, I came to apologize to Lin Fan because of Brother Hong's rules.
But after knowing that Lin Fan was the deputy director of the steel rolling mill and a senior official of the country, he really accepted it.
What can I do if I don’t accept this?
If someone casually goes to the police station and says something, you will be arrested by the police and sent to the station.
Among the bureaus in Beidu, the most famous one is the Paoju alley.
In Paoju Alley, when the pigtails are pointing towards the direction, there is a yellow flag.
During the Qianlong period, this place was the Artillery Bureau, where cannons were manufactured.
Later, the artillery station was abolished and became a storage place for cannons, ordnance and spent artillery, and finally became a prison after the late Qing Dynasty.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, this place was naturally taken over by the Beidu Police Department.
There is an old saying in Beidu: Lao Pao Lao Pao. What does that mean?
That is to say, people who have been in the artillery station!
What kind of person is that?
He is an awesome person, and he is someone who has committed serious crimes.
If he can come out, he will be a qualified person in Beidu's entertainment circle.
Wherever I go, I have to be called "Lao Pao" to show respect.
But Zhou Li didn't want to.
He is just the gangster leader of Brother Hong. If he is in the artillery station, or because of the crime of attacking high-ranking officials of the country, he will definitely die or shed his skin.
Of course, it is most likely that after eating peanuts, your eyes will turn black, your legs will curl up, and you will be finished.
In this situation, would you be cowardly if it were you?
Anyway, Zhou Li was already lying down and decided to give up.
Lin Fan squinted his eyes, looking at Zhou Li who was completely different from the previous day, and thought in his mind.
This Zhou Li was not such a person at that time.
At that time, when he was beaten by me, he never said a word of resignation, he was a man.
Why did you come here to apologize to yourself at this time?
Sudden discovery of conscience?
This is unlikely.
Although some people are loyal and moral when they are gangsters, I have never seen someone who hits someone and suddenly has a conscience and turns around to apologize to others.
Since that's not the case, is it because you're afraid of causing trouble for him?
This is quite possible.
Lin Fan is now the deputy director.
According to the country's cadre standards, if you are already a cadre, you can be called a senior cadre.
Attacking high-ranking officials of the country, in a place like Beidu, which is at the feet of the emperor, is no simple matter.
The greater possibility is not to go to the Bureau, but to see the King of Hell.
Thinking this, Lin Fan tapped his fingers on the table, making a clicking sound.
a long time.
He stopped what he was doing, looked at Zhou Li, and asked with a half-smile: "Do you know my identity?"
Zhou Li nodded bitterly: "I understand. Deputy director of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, a senior national official."
"Is this why you came to apologize to me?"
Zhou Li hesitated for a moment, originally he wanted to just nod.
But in the end, I still told the truth.
When you apologize, you have to be sincere.
"I just learned about this from the second uncle of your hospital. When I found out, it scared me into a cold sweat. Good guy, I actually blocked the high-ranking cadre's way on the road. It's all thanks to you at that time.
Beat me up, otherwise my brain will probably be gone."
"However, that's not why I'm here to apologize... I broke the rules in our circle, so I'm here."
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows: "Rules? Rules of not provoking outsiders?"
Zhou Li nodded: "So you also know that although we are not good people in the circle, we still have to abide by the rules. Don't make trouble for outsiders, this is a rule."
"Then why did you break the rules just for these twenty dollars?"
"To be honest, I was confused at the time... The situation at that time was a bit short of money, and the guy approached me. I thought no one would pay attention, so I took it over. Who knows...
..."
"Who knew that not only did he receive a beating, he was also noticed by Brother Hong, right?"
"Um."
Zhou Li nodded silently.
It seems that Lin Fan knew that he had been exposed by doing this and was discovered by Brother Hong.
Look at Lin Fan again.
After learning that Zhou Li was forced to apologize by the man nicknamed Brother Hong, he really became interested in this group of unique game owners in Beidu.
These people, who abide by the rules and have a certain sense of loyalty, can be considered a breath of fresh air in the gangster world.
Of course.
If that were the case, Lin Fan wouldn't have any special thoughts about Brother Hong and the others.
But after confirming his future plans, he came up with the idea of getting in touch with Brother Hong.
Although the game masters in Beidu now mostly refer to the gangster bosses who dominate the area, some of these people still evolved from the authentic game masters.
What does this mean? It means that some of the current game owners may be the same as the previous game owners, playing antiques, calligraphy and painting.
Even if it's bad, even Brother Hong doesn't know such a player.
Lin Fan planned to collect things in this area, and their help was indispensable.
As for why.
As long as you think about who knows the news about Beidu, you will understand.
Workers, mostly working in factories, mostly think about finding a partner, getting a salary increase, etc.
Only who would notice other news?
Aren't they just hooligans who have nothing to do?
I just happened to take this opportunity to ask Zhou Li to take me to meet this so-called Brother Hong and learn about the situation from him.
"Okay, I won't argue with you anymore. Take me to see Brother Hong, and the matter between you and me will be cancelled."
Lin Fan came to the conclusion of this meeting.
Zhou Li thought for a while.
This matter is easy to handle.
It's just a one-time meeting.
He immediately agreed and agreed with Lin Fan to meet at the gate of Tongchun Garden in Xidan at noon tomorrow.
It’s Tong Chun Garden again.
Why do I keep encountering it?
However, complaints are complaints, and Lin Fan still agreed.
...
When Zhou Li walked out of the door, his mood was bright and his smile was overflowing.
This look is most classic seen on the faces of young pioneers.
Outside.
The bangs locked outside were still waiting. When they saw Zhou Li coming out, they hurriedly greeted him.
"How's it going, comrade, did Lin Fan and the others do anything to you?"
Liu Haizhong looked at Zhou Li and asked hurriedly.
This was a great opportunity for him to report Lin Fan. Wouldn't it be a pity if he just missed it?
For this bangs.
Zhou Li only rolled his eyes.
I originally thought that he had a good relationship with Lin Fan and could talk to him in front of Lin Fan, so he would be nice to him.
Now that I know that he is actually at odds with Lin Fan, how can I show him a good face?
Zhou Li pushed the second uncle away and warned: "Director Lin is a good person. You, the second uncle, always want to find fault with him. Is there something wrong with your own thinking?"
This week Li clearly knew that he was a gangster, but at this time he actually started to criticize Liu Haizhong for having ideological problems.
This one is quite funny.
When he said this, Liu Haizhong's face turned blue and white. He didn't know what to say. He could only watch Zhou Li walk out of the courtyard and walk away.
The bangs were stagnant in place, as if they had lost their soul.
