At first, he felt calm, but it was just when the separation was difficult. It wasn't until the night was completely dark that Wang Dong sent Huang Ying back to school.
There were not too many words to say. After watching her walk into the dormitory, Wang Dong's smile slowly faded, and then he rushed back to drink without stopping.
Relatively quiet lounge.
Wang Dong looked at Luo Bing, but he never spoke directly outside. Instead, they all entered the lounge. He could tell that there must be some problems with the wine, so Lao Hou called them over.
However, Luo Bing was the core of the team, and it was him who sent him the gathering message, so when Wang Dong opened his mouth, it was Luo Bing who asked him first.
"As for Lao Hou, you know this best." Luo Bing nodded and looked at Lao Hou.
It has been more than two months since the wine officially opened. Compared with then, Hou Qiulin seems to have shown a lot of energy at this time. He should be involved in business and welcome guests with a smile every day.
It's caused by nature.
"This matter has to be discussed from two aspects..."
Lao Hou nodded and immediately told the reason for summoning everyone.
It has been open for more than two months. Because of the good location and the fact that Lao Hou is a down-to-earth person who never cuts off customers, the wine business has been quite good except for the period when it first opened.
Regarding this point, Wang Dong also has some numbers in mind. At the beginning of these two months, Lao Hou always deposits dividends into his account on time. Although it is only 8% of the shares, the monthly dividends are not counted.
few.
And precisely because business is good, even if a large group of soldiers come to show their support when it opens, it will inevitably arouse some people's greed.
In the past two months, from time to time, some local snakes from the nearby streets would come and hang out.
Lao Hou would not care about these people. Although one hand was not flexible, he was still a warrior with the peak strength of an intermediate warrior. With only two legs, he defeated all these local snakes quite easily.
All over.
So, things happened.
If you beat one or two people, nothing will happen, but if you beat them more, there will be more people with opinions... It is inevitable that the big snake behind these people will also show up to support the show.
A week ago, an "organization" called the Chengnan District Liquor Association sent an invitation letter to Lao Hou.
On the same day, two policemen from the Chengnan Police Station also conducted some routine investigations on alcohol in the name of reports that fights often occurred here.
Two things happened at the same time, and their connotations are self-evident.
However, it was because they were still unwilling to completely fall out with Lao Hou. In addition to contact information, the invitation letter did not leave a date. After the routine investigation ended, the police said a few meaningful words to Lao Hou.
Never came again.
Originally, Lao Hou was planning to drag them over. After all, the mission of Storm Team 6 had just ended a week ago. Luo Bing and his family must also be busy with a lot of things.
Until today, when he happened to see Wang Dong having some free time, he walked together with Huang Ying without saying a word, so he also informed Luo Bing and the others.
"Wine Association? What's the origin?"
His face remained calm, but Wang Dong's heart wrinkled slightly. Although he didn't know the details of the other party, judging from the method that was neither soft nor hard, making people unable to turn against him directly, but also keeping it in his mind, he instigated this incident.
He is obviously a veteran with deep knowledge of social matters.
"This was founded by a man named Gu Youdao. In the name of unifying the wine order and standardizing industry standards, he included all the wines in Chengnan District into the association, and then collected regular membership dues from all members.
In fact, it is a disguised form of collecting protection fees in the name of legitimacy.”….
Lao Hou had obviously investigated first and basically understood the details of the other party.
"What about the police station? What is the relationship between the police station and them?"
Luo Qiang then added, what about the wine association, the ancient Tao, the underground world? In his eyes, if you really have a heart, you can knock on the door at any time. Even if something really happens, Deputy Battalion Commander Lin and the others will be there to support them.
.
On the contrary, the police department is in some trouble. Although it often cooperates with the military, the police department belongs to the government system. Even they cannot cause trouble openly.
If the police station often sets up traffic jams at the liquor store, it won't be easy to handle.
The one with the big head, Lao Hou, was actually here. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "A large share of the wine association's membership fees is publicly allocated to the police station in the name of sponsorship. In addition, Gu Youdao and the police officer
The bosses of the bureau have always had close contacts."
This is the advantage of organizing an association. What Gu Youdao provides to the police station is sponsorship. Is it a public sponsorship to thank the police for maintaining the drinking order? Or is it facing all police officers? It is the replacement of the head of the Chengnan Police Station.
, if you want to win the hearts of the people below, you can't attack this sponsor, and naturally you can't attack Gu Youdao.
"This guy is quite interesting."
After hearing this meaning in Lao Hou's words, Wang Dong's heart moved, and he really became interested in this matter, or in other words, this life.
Judging from this situation, unless the membership fee is too high and most of the members of the wine association cannot survive, and they all get together to make trouble, which will attract the attention of the government, otherwise, no matter which wine, if there is a problem individually, Gu Youdao himself will
There is no need to show up, I'm afraid the police will come to you on their own initiative in a very legitimate name.
If this situation can be achieved, Gu Youdao will naturally not make it difficult for its members to survive. Only when everyone is prosperous can he gain the greatest harvest.
In other words, it would be difficult for Zero Point Storm to join the association if it wanted to truly gain a foothold in Chengnan District, avoid arousing the public outrage of all colleagues, and avoid being watched by all the police.
"No wonder neither Gu Youdao nor the police are in a hurry... They are letting Lao Hou and us take our time to see the reality clearly."
Slightly, Wang Dong curled his lips slightly... Being able to collect the protection fee so openly, and even making people have to pay it willingly, this ancient method has almost become the rule here.
Wang Dong doesn't know if this rule has been spread, but according to him, unless there are high-level officials who pay special attention to this matter and start from the root, otherwise, sooner or later, this so-called association will definitely cover all urban areas.
, and will even spread to other entertainment industries.
However, it was not their turn to worry about this kind of thing at this time. After pondering for a moment, Wang Dong exchanged eyes with Luo Bing and said, "Let's meet him for a while first? Let's see what he has to say."
"That's fine." Luo Bing nodded and looked at Lao Hou again.
Understanding, Hou Qiulin directly dialed the phone number there using the contact information left on the invitation letter.
"I am the ancient Taoist."
It was almost past 11 o'clock in the night, but the voice over there was still very energetic and calm at the same time. If you just listen to the voice, this person should not be very old.
"I am Hou Qiulin." Lao Hou also announced his identity.
"It turns out it's Brother Hou. Haha, I've always wanted to visit you, but I've been busy lately and haven't been able to spare the time. Hmm? Brother Hou is calling now. Has he made a decision?" The voice was very familiar.
He laughed heartily.
"When President Bu Gu comes to visit, if you have time now, can we go over and visit you?" Hou Qiulin directly said what he meant.
"Okay, I'm waiting for you brother at Haojue."
I was confident in my heart and answered without any hesitation.
