The factories in Beicheng District, Zhang City are producing day and night. They mainly produce some daily necessities and some chemical products. The waste generated by the processed products is discharged into the sky through those tall chimneys.
The entire Beicheng District has been shrouded in a state of smog for many years.
Under those tall chimneys are residential areas one after another.
The tallest buildings in these residential areas are no more than five floors, and they are all employee dormitories of some factories.
The most common ones are bungalows, one room in a row.
It was around twelve o'clock in the evening.
In a simple billiard room in Beicheng District.
A group of people are gathering together.
There was a bowl in front of them.
A middle-aged man wearing a Hongxing Erke down jacket, holding a cigarette in his mouth, shouted in a local tone, "Come on, come on, the purchase is gone, hurry up and place your bet, hurry up and place your bet."
A group of workers wearing work clothes sat around the middle-aged man. Of course, there were also some fashionably dressed people here. The age range of the workers was very wide. Some factories had workers who were sixteen or seventeen years old, and some factories had workers who were still young.
There were workers in their 60s and 70s, and the people gathering in front of them were people from several nearby factories.
"big big big!"
"Little, little, little!"
These people held banknotes in their hands, and they also had banknotes in front of them. Most of them were in denominations of ten yuan. Of course, there were also banknotes in denominations of five hundred yuan, but there were not that many.
"122, little!"
The dice in the middle-aged man's hand stopped in the bowl. Then, the middle-aged man glanced at a young man next to him, and the man began to collect and distribute money.
Those who won the money were elated, while those who lost money called their mothers idiots.
This kind of small casino is very common in the entire industrial area. Because this is an industrial area, entertainment facilities are still relatively scarce. Therefore, the business of this small casino is very good every night. People with good luck can win a thousand and eight dollars a day.
One hundred yuan, and then spend one or two hundred to have a drink with friends, and another two to three hundred to take a shower and have a haircut or something.
The small casino in front of me is opened by the X Province Fellows Association. In Beicheng District, more than half of the small casinos are opened by the
.
As long as you dare to call the police, I will surround you with thousands of people. If any mass incident occurs, we will be unlucky, but you will also be unlucky.
Therefore, many times, the Beicheng District Police Station basically ignores these casinos.
Some people are gambling, and some are playing billiards. The life of workers is actually very simple. They either go to work or have a rest. Many people work in shifts. They work one day and have another day off. So although it is getting late, there are still many people here.
Wandering on the street.
"Awang, you have lost a lot of money today. Go back quickly, otherwise your mother-in-law will have to make you kneel on the keyboard again."
The middle-aged man said with a smile while counting the money.
"If it doesn't work, if I push it harder, I don't believe I can't make money today."
A skinny man said through gritted teeth.
The middle-aged man smiled and shouted, "Okay, okay, I'm done buying it!"
At this moment, several vans approached from far away.
The headlights of the van were very dazzling at night like this.
A total of four vans were parked outside this small casino.
Zhao Gangjun and others got off the first van.
"This is the headquarters of the X Province Fellows Association."
Director Wang walked beside Zhao Gangjun and said.
Zhao Gangjun nodded and walked towards the group of people gambling.
When the middle-aged man saw the thirty or forty people standing next to Zhao Gangjun, he frowned and said to the people around him, "Let the brothers come out."
Zhao Gangjun was the first to walk to the gaming table.
People at the table got out of the way when they saw the people on Zhao Gangjun's side.
Many people had a look of fear on their faces. After all, it was gambling. If the police really came to arrest them, the people in the X Province Fellows Association might be fine, but they might not be.
"Don't be afraid, continue."
Zhao Gangjun said with a smile.
Those people who dared to continue dispersed one after another.
"Brother, are you a bunch of people coming to my place to scare my guests?"
The middle-aged man was holding a cigarette and said dissatisfiedly.
"This is a leader of the X Province Association, named Ma Yun, the director of Alibaba Building Materials Company." Director Wang said in a low voice.
Zhao Gangrong nodded and said to Ma Yun, "I have something to ask you for help."
"Ask us for help? Are you asking us for help with such a bunch of crooked people?" Ma Yun snorted coldly and said, "I don't want to see people like you in suits and ties. Get away as far as you can from me.
I'm really upset after seeing this."
"Brother, why don't you ask us what we need your help with?" Zhao Gangjun said.
"Ask a question?"
Ma Yun said loudly, "I told you to get out, why are you still staying here, so shameless?"
Zhao Gangjun didn't expect that Ma Yun had such a bad temper, but thinking about it, this is his territory after all. It's enough for you to bring three or five people. Bringing so many people here will give people a sense of power.
Zhao Gangjun smiled helplessly. The other party's level was indeed a bit low, so he didn't consider these things.
As a result, people are asking me to get out now, and it seems that I am still not thoughtful enough in my work.
"How do you talk to you?"
Although Director Wang was humble in front of Zhao Gangjun and others, in front of people like Ma Yun, he looked like an official. He twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "If you don't want to die, let He Run come out.
"
"Oh? You still know our Mr. He?"
Ma Yun took the cigarette out of his mouth, then flicked it with his finger, and the cigarette butt flew towards Ma Yun.
"It's no use knowing anyone. If I don't want to see you, just get out of here. If you don't get out, don't blame me for messing with you."
As soon as Ma Yun finished speaking, a group of people rushed out of the store.
There were probably more than forty of these people, with sticks and other things in their hands.
Although these people from the X Province Fellows Association are very fierce in Beicheng District, they are not fools, so the guys in their hands are all within the limit, and there are no knives or other things.
These people surrounded more than thirty people on Zhao Gangjun's side.
Zhou Jingnian picked up a handkerchief, covered his mouth and coughed lightly. He didn't pay attention to these people. The people from the Special Operations Division also stood there. These were ordinary people around him. Anyone who went out could deal with them.
Yes, there is no need to be nervous.
"Aren't you leaving yet?" Ma Yun said coldly.
Zhao Gangjun shook his head helplessly and said, "It's hard to talk properly these days. Tong Yan, go ahead and teach him a lesson. Just lure the older one out."
"Okay."
Zhou Tongyan nodded and walked towards the person from the province next to him with a ferocious smile.
