I'm really sorry. The last few chapters I revised yesterday were so big that I almost stopped updating them. I added this chapter early in the morning to express my gratitude. I still owe everyone a chapter, so I'll add it together tomorrow!
A waiter led him all the way inside. After a while, Lin Tao arrived outside a room similar to a conference room. At a glance, he saw Li Qiang sitting at the conference table, with seven or eight close men sitting around.
Opposite him, Li Qiang seemed to be talking about what happened last night, but as soon as he saw Lin Tao, he immediately stood up with a loud smile, hugged his shoulders affectionately and said: "Brother, you came at the right time. If you don't come to us,
What you say is all empty talk, you still have to make the plan to attack the supermarket!"
Seeing that Li Qiang actually changed the subject and had no intention of mentioning the conflict last night, Lin Tao knew in his heart that Li Qiang did not want to take credit for this matter. Li Qiang was not a fool, and naturally he would not regard Lin Tao as a fool. Li Qiang had a fierce fight with Wang Chenghu last night.
Everyone knew how much reluctance there was, so Lin Tao didn't bother to waste any time and discussed the plan to seize the supermarket with them without losing his smile!
…
Lin Tao was not the only one who came to the gathering place in Jiangcheng for the first time. Boss Hu and the others were also very interested in this place. So Boss Hu woke up early today. He was full of energy and took Gao Chujiang and Wang Guodong out together.
What's coquettish is that he asked everyone to put on their rifles and pistols, and arrogantly led a group of people to "inspect" this small gathering place that might be under his control in the future. (.]
"Lao Gao, look, that three-story building in front is quite impressive!" Boss Hu stepped on a stone bench, pointed at a three-story building in the wealthy area, and said energetically
: "In a few days, we will find a way to move in and use it as our base.
, although our strength may not be able to catch up with Wang Chenghu and Li Qiang for a while, but as long as we work steadily, it will be easy to recruit people with the food and weapons in our hands, and it will not be impossible to capture the entire gathering place by then.
!”
"Well! The location is good, but the scale is a bit small. But it won't be too late to change to a bigger one when the strength becomes stronger!" Gao Chujiang also nodded with great satisfaction, then turned to look at Boss Hu next to him, with a slight smile.
He said flatteringly: "Old Hu, I'm not good at fighting or killing, but I can be your deputy and give you advice. That's no problem. Then you have to take more care of me, my old brother!"
"It's easy to talk, it's all my brothers!" The corners of Boss Hu's mouth turned up proudly, then he raised his hands and looked at Gao Chujiang boldly and said: "Don't say that you are not a deputy, you, Gao, are
I also know my abilities, and I will be fully qualified to be a deputy county magistrate. As for Guodong, when we have our own army, I think I can be a captain!"
If Zhang Xu were here, he would definitely laugh at Boss Hu for being like a toad and yawning - such a loud tone! But he was not so arrogant as to give Gao Chujiang and the others the title of deputy mayor or something like that. Lu Liangjia on the side listened to his words.
His face was full of enthusiasm and seemed a little forced.
I couldn't wait to know what kind of high-ranking official I could be in the future, but Wang Guodong, who had been observing the surroundings, turned his head and said expressionlessly: "Old Hu, it's not impossible for the few of us to pull together a team.
It’s possible, but in my opinion, it’s very difficult!”
"Huh? How do you say this? I think back then I had a gun and could control thousands of people single-handedly. It's not that big here. It's just tens of thousands of people. What's the problem?" Boss Hu frowned slightly.
, looked at Wang Guodong with some displeasure.
"Almost all the elites here have been picked away by various leaders. Even if there are some left, they either join together with fellow villagers or work alone. How many of them can be left for us to win over?" Wang Guodong looked at Boss Hu seriously.
He sighed softly and said: "Besides, we are foreigners and don't know anything about this place, so it is extremely difficult to recruit a team!"
"Guodong, I don't like hearing what you are saying anymore. You have backed down before this has even started. Could it be that we will never develop and will always live here based on people's looks?" Gao Chujiang took a big step forward and twisted.
He frowned at Wang Guodong.
"Development must be developed. Here are a bunch of hungry wolves that eat people but don't spit out bones. If we don't develop, we can only be slaughtered by others. There is only a dead end waiting for us!" Wang Guodong looked at Gao Chujiang without anger, and then added
Said: "We want to build a decent team, but it's definitely not possible to just rely on the four of us. There is someone here that we must win over. With him, we have a solid foundation!"
"You mean...that kid Zhang Xu?" Boss Hu asked with some uncertainty.
"Well!" Wang Guodong nodded slightly and said: "Zhang Xu is not weak in terms of combat effectiveness or brains, and he is an old man here. As long as we have him, not to mention how brilliant we can develop, at least we can protect ourselves.
, you don’t have to look at other people’s faces!”
"Zhang Xu..." Boss Hu muttered with a gloomy face, with quite a lot of hesitation in his tone. He didn't know the importance of Zhang Xu, but Zhang Xu seemed to look down on him all the time. If Zhang Xu was asked to join
When he came in, his status as the first brother of Boss Hu was definitely not guaranteed, and he might not even have the possibility of becoming a confidant. So after thinking for a moment, he raised his head resolutely and said: "No, that kid Zhang Xu is not on the same path as us.
It was fine before, but now he imitates Lin Tao in everything, always talking about benevolence, justice and morality. If he joins in, it will not only be detrimental to us, but may even kill us!"
"But no matter what, don't you think Zhang Xu has to fight for it?" Wang Guodong stared at Boss Hu, with no fluctuation in his eyes.
"Let's talk about this later. I'll talk to him when I get back in the evening!" Boss Hu quickly waved his hand, changed the topic, and said: "Now our task is to walk around more and ask more questions. If there is anyone with outstanding ability,
Man, let’s do our best to invite them to join us!”
After saying that, the three men, one big and one small, slowly walked towards the slums. The sightseeing tour yesterday also gave them a preliminary understanding of this place. Gao Chujiang may not be good at fighting, but when it comes to socializing, he is also a good one.
Good players, plus a boss Hu who can blow up a heifer to the sky, after a few hours, they were really able to fool them into some good players who dared to fight.
Probably because people are in high spirits during happy events, before noon, Boss Hu asked Lu Liangjia to get their food, and directly set up a decent table at a small restaurant in the slum area. Apart from the four of them,
In addition to the brothers and sisters in distress, seven or eight tough-looking men were also present, and each of them was accompanied by a coquettish little woman who was flirting and waiting on him!
During the banquet, a group of people exchanged cups and drank happily. They talked and boasted about how they would become masters in the future. They talked nonsense, and it seemed that after drinking this meal, they were asked to follow Mr. Hu up the mountain of swords.
The fire and sea were willing to do whatever they wanted, and the group of young women who came to sit with them were also good at complimenting others. They flattered each other and soon made Boss Hu feel a few ounces lighter from top to bottom.
, kept shouting loudly that he wanted to take control of the entire gathering place, and led all his men to eat and drink.
"Drink, fill it all up. Brother, there isn't much of anything, just a lot of women, and a lot of good wine!" Boss Hu, blushing and waving his hands indiscriminately, was obviously a little drunk, but he soon felt a sense of bloating in his bladder.
When he came, he took his left hand out of a girl's crotch, stood up unsteadily and said: "You guys drink first, I...I'll pay the water bill! Wait...wait for me! Whoever runs away, he will
Mom’s grandson!”
Although there is no flush toilet in Xiaojiu's house, there are still toilets for people's convenience. As he walked, Boss Hu unbuckled his belt and when he passed the bar, he did not forget to pinch the coquettish landlady's ass, and then
Hehe walked into the back toilet with a lewd smile.
The toilet here is almost the same as the common toilets in the countryside. There is a shaky broken wooden board placed on a deep pit. Not only is it already filled with rice fields that are about to overflow, but the stench that towers into the sky can almost kill someone.
If you are not careful, you may drown in this terrible sea of excrement. However, the plastic buckets for guests to urinate are placed in a row against the wall. If any urine bucket is almost full, it will be taken away soon. Go
Irrigate those rare green vegetables!
"My dear, pee slowly and be careful of the man peeing in front of you..."
Boss Hu pressed one hand against the wall, and with the other he took out his little brother from his crotch. He hummed a vulgar ditty he had made up in his mouth. But before he could even urinate, a feeling of ejaculation suddenly came from his waist.
When he heard the news, he subconsciously turned his head and wanted to curse, but when he saw clearly that it was a dark pistol that was pressed against him, Boss Hu immediately became excited, even half awake from the wine, and begged for mercy with a mournful face: "
Big...brother, let's talk it over if you have anything to say, I'll give you whatever you want, just...don't shoot!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" The black man holding the gun pushed the gun forward fiercely and said unceremoniously: "If you are sensible, just follow me. Our boss wants to see you. If you don't obey, man
The bullet in your hand is something that even your relatives will not recognize!"
"Okay, okay, I will be obedient, I will be obedient!" Boss Hu nodded hurriedly, and after thinking about it, he asked cautiously: "But may I ask this brother, who is your boss? Does he know me?"
"You'll know when you get there!" The black man laughed ferociously, grabbed Boss Hu by the collar and pushed him out of the door. But Boss Hu was held up by a gun and didn't dare to make any mistakes. He could only obey obediently.
Following the direction pointed by the other party, he left the toilet and walked into the largest private room in the restaurant.
After opening the door of the private room, Mr. Hu found that there were not many people inside. A tall but fat man was sitting in the main seat. Behind him were two bodyguards standing on the left and right, with the one standing on the right.
On the side, a man with a fierce face but a burnt head that he had just seen yesterday was the first mountain dog to stop their convoy!
Boss Hu was pushed into the box by the man behind him. He stumbled and almost fell over. However, he still did not dare to have any temper. He just looked at the fat man in charge nervously and asked: "Excuse me, brother, please
I came here..."
"Little brother, don't be nervous, come on, sit down first, and let's talk slowly!" The fat man waved to Boss Hu with a smile, pointed to a chair opposite and asked him to sit down, and then continued to say with a smile: "Although
You have never met me, but you must have heard of my name. My surname is Wang. Thanks to the love of my brothers, I am honored to be called Lord Tiger. Haha~ Little brother, what do you call me?"
Boss Hu's pupils shrank severely. He never expected that Brother No. 1 from the Jiangcheng gathering place would appear in front of him alive, and it was such an unpleasant scene. He nodded in fear and said: "
My name as Mr. Hu has long been famous, my surname is Hu, if Mr. Hu thinks highly of me, just call me Xiao Hu!"
"You can afford it, of course I can, otherwise I wouldn't let anyone invite you here! Haha~" Wang Chenghu smiled heartily, and then said with a smile: "Looking at Brother Hu, he must be a smart person, so let's just open the skylight
Let's be honest, I invited you here today just because I want you to deal with that Lin Tao with me!"
"Deal with Lin Tao?" Boss Hu was immediately startled and looked at Wang Chenghu in amazement. He was also drunk last night and went to bed early, so he didn't know anything about Lin Tao's gunfight in the bar, but he quickly
He couldn't laugh or cry, and said bitterly: "Master Hu, you... you are so good at joking, Lin Tao is my brother, how can I deal with him?"
"Haha~ Brother, how much is a brother worth? Fifty kilograms of rice? One hundred kilograms of rice? Hum~ Everyone has a valuation of a brother in their heart. As long as I can give you the conditions you want, I think you will still
Come and beg me!”
Wang Hucheng sneered disdainfully, then leaned forward slightly and said in an encouraging tone: "I can smell what kind of person you are with my nose, because we are the same, we are all the same kind of people, and we can do whatever it takes to achieve the goal! To tell you the truth
Well, I have sent people to keep an eye on you for two days. You are recruiting troops everywhere, but the leader you have chosen is not Lin Tao but you. Don’t tell me that you are doing all this just for Lin Tao!"
"Well..." Boss Hu moved his body awkwardly and said with a dry smile: "Let me tell the truth, Lin Tao will leave here sooner or later. If I don't work alone, where will I have a future? But if you want me to deal with Lin Tao, I
I really don’t have the courage. To be disrespectful, if Lin Tao wants to kill you, all your subordinates put together may not be able to stop him!"
"Hmph~ Is it possible that he still has three heads and six arms? As long as he is still a human being, he will never escape from my Wuzhishan Mountain!" Wang Chenghu slammed the table heavily and said with a fierce expression: "And don't you think about it, Lin Tao can leave, but you
What? Can you leave too? If my King Tiger wants to embarrass you, can you still fly into the sky? You still have to think about yourself first!"
"Master Hu, you... aren't you making things difficult for me? Lin Tao is really a hard nut to crack!" Mr. Hu looked at Wang Chenghu across from him anxiously. This man was almost threatening him nakedly.
, but Wang Chenghu ignored it, leaning on the chair and waiting for Boss Hu's answer with a smile, while the mountain dog behind him smiled a little bit, and the pistol inserted diagonally at his waist seemed to be pumping more than before.
Come out some.
"Forget it, Mr. Hu, don't embarrass me, a land and mountain god. You are all fighting with gods. I have thin arms and legs, so I can't get along with you at all. Don't you just want to deal with Lin Tao? Let me tell you.
Just take a look at some of his weaknesses. If things work out, I hope Mr. Hu will give you more support in the future!" Boss Hu said with a sad face.
"Oh? Weakness? Tell me!" Wang Chenghu immediately showed strong interest, half of his body lying on the round table.
"Lin Tao and I have been together for a long time. He is decisive in fighting and his fighting power is extremely terrifying. He cannot be eliminated by ordinary people. However, as long as humans are human, they have weaknesses. He may seem serious, but deep down he is very serious.
A lustful person, especially when meeting a beautiful woman, will immediately become indecisive..."
…
The sun was setting in the west. When Lin and Zhang returned to their residence after training for a day, the food was already cooked. But today, the two beauties in charge were Cao Mei and Bai Ru. Cao Mei gave guidance and Bai Ru took action. In fact, Cao Mei took charge of the cooking.
Mei was only half-assed at cooking, let alone Bai Ru, who had never even touched a kitchen knife before, so it was inevitable that the food on the table would be crooked and cracked.
Originally, Boss Hu wanted to come up and comment a few words like a human being, but when he saw Cao Mei's knife-like eyes, he consciously swallowed back almost all the words that came to his lips and handed over the sacred first chopsticks.
I gave it to Lin Tao to taste and evaluate.
"Eh? Ruru, your plate of dry-fried bamboo shoots is very good. It can even taste like beef!" Lin Tao tasted the chopsticks and found that although the dish was terribly fried, it still tasted pretty good.
It's barely edible, and if you're really hungry, you can still eat the food on the table.
"Husband..." Bai Ru, who looked expectant, suddenly became nervous, pointed at the plate of dark things in front of Lin Tao and said, "Then... that's either dried bamboo shoots, or beef!"
"Ah?" Not only Lin Tao's eyes widened, but also Zhang Xu who tasted the chopsticks was dumbfounded. He smacked his lips and said with disbelief: "Can't you? Sister Ru, are you mistaken? Eat this food.
It looks woody and scorched, what is it if it's not bamboo shoots?"
"Go and play aside. I'll let you eat instant noodles later!" Bai Ru glared at Zhang Xu fiercely, then continued to ask Lin Tao coquettishly: "Then husband...how does the food I cook taste?"
"Well..." Lin Tao held up his chopsticks and pondered for a moment, and finally said against his will: "Ruru, to be honest, the appearance of these dishes may be a little different, but the taste is still quite good, at least very good.
Suitable for my personal taste!”
"Huh... that's good, that's good, as long as you like to eat it!" Bai Ru patted her chest and let out a big sigh of relief. She didn't notice that Zhang Xu's face was almost blue from holding back, and he hugged her tenderly.
Lin Tao held Lin Tao's neck and kissed him hard on the face as a reward.
"Lao Hu, how are you? Did you gain anything from wandering around the gathering place these two days?" Lin Tao held up his rice bowl and took a big mouthful of uncooked rice. He actually didn't want to talk while eating, but
If Bai Ru didn't distract everyone's attention by talking, Bai Ru would definitely be able to tell something strange about the food from their sad faces.
"It's okay!" Boss Hu bit the bullet and ate an unknown piece of food. After chewing it twice, he realized that it was a whole piece of ginger used for seasoning. Boss Hu had to take out a paper towel from the table and pretend to wipe it.
After spitting the ginger into a tissue and throwing it away, he breathed a sigh of relief.
