The eldest brother leaned on the head of the bed and said with a depressed look on his face: "Then...the stupid Big Snake Gang is deliberately making things difficult for us!"
"Deliberately making things difficult?"
The eldest brother nodded and then told the whole story one by one.
Gangs and gangs are rampant in Bajun City, and there is no place in the streets and alleys of the city that is not divided into territories by various people.
When the eldest brother first arrived in Bajun City, he actually had contact with the Big Snake Gang.
The shop was opened on Changhe Street, and this street happened to be the territory of the Big Snake Gang. According to local practice, each shop had to pay fifty cents to the Big Snake Gang every month.
At the beginning, the eldest brother didn't think much of it. After all, it was only fifty cents. It didn't matter whether he handed it over or not. It was best to be friendly and make money when he was new.
On the first day of business, the eldest brother paid 50 yuan to the Big Snake Gang, and the business started like this.
As for what happened next, needless to say, with the low prices, the shop's business was booming. At the highest point, it made more than 20,000 yuan in one day.
The shops on the neighboring street can make several hundred cents a day, which is pretty good, but with such a huge amount of revenue in a day, how can they not make people jealous?
Just this morning, when it was the turn to pay the money again, the big snake and the lion opened their mouths and increased the amount from fifty to fifteen thousand.
With such a huge amount, how can the elder brother do it?
Immediately, they started arguing with the people from the Orochi Gang. Needless to say, the final result was that the three of them were beaten up and punished. One of the eldest brother's fingers was chopped off as punishment.
The eldest brother glanced at the little finger that was no longer there, and then said with a look of resentment: "These little beasts are nothing! Not only did they chop off my fingers, but they also robbed me of all the hundred taels of silver I earned in the shop!"
Hearing this, Chen Mu finally couldn't help but frown, and said coldly to himself: "These guys... really don't follow the rules of the world."
If we say that what these people who are wandering around in the Tao hate and hate the most are people who do things that do not follow the rules.
The Jianghu is like a big river, gathering all kinds of people. There is no explicit rule, but there are countless unwritten and hidden rules.
What should be done, what should be done even to death, people on the road have a standard of measurement.
Say one thing and do what you say, this is the most important morality in the world.
People like this who change the rules randomly when they see others having a lot of money are not people in the world, at most they are just a group of hooligans.
In the world of martial arts, morality and justice are the foundation of everyone's life.
Beating my people and touching my money, this is the first time that someone has done this to me after being involved in the world for so long.
This time, Chen Mu really wanted to teach these people how to write the word "rules".
Afterwards, Chen Mu picked up the topical medicine, wiped his elder brother's bruises, and prepared to go out.
"Boy... If not, let's withdraw. There are too many gangs in Bajun. It's not for small families like us to hang out. Without a backer... we can only be slaughtered as fat sheep."
When he came to the door, the eldest brother couldn't help but give some advice. He had personally experienced the cruelty and numbness of those gangsters, and they could cut them with their fingers, and he still feels scared to this day.
What if the knife fell on his neck instead of his finger? Chen Jianghe couldn't help but shudder just thinking about it.
Chen Mu slowly stopped, then glanced sideways at his elder brother, and said in a cold voice: "Brother, just take good care of yourself. In this world, I am a butcher's knife, and others are fish and meat. I am the only one who bullies the world. How dare anyone in the world bully me?"
After saying that, Chen Mu put his hands behind his back and went out, leaving the three of them standing there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Liu Jingtang looked at Chen Mu's back, his eyes undoubtedly showing a bit of respect.
"What a man...anyone in the world dares to bully me, this is what a man should do."
By the time Chen Mu went out, it was almost dark, but Xia Hou had been standing guard outside the door.
"Does Tang Hengdao have eleven swords?"
Hearing Chen Muwen's words, Xiahou's expression changed. Naturally, he could guess Chen Mu's purpose and immediately responded: "That's enough. As long as Brother Mu speaks, our eleven brothers will definitely go through fire and water!"
Chen Mu glanced at the crescent moon in the sky, and then waved his hand: "There is no rush today. Let me tell my brothers to get some rest early and go to Ba County early tomorrow morning."
Xiahou immediately bowed: "Yes."
After saying that, he quickly walked towards the direction of the kiln. For Xiahou, he was undoubtedly happy. Now he has been staying in the village. Although he has no worries about food and clothing, he always feels that he lacks a sense of value.
They were either digging the ground or forging iron, but what they were best at was chopping people's heads off.
After these days of contact with Chen Mu, he could clearly feel that there was something special about this person. Whether it was the way he behaved or the way he did things, they were all top-notch.
Maybe you can ride on this person's arms and ride into the wind.
It wasn't until the end of Xu Shi that Liu Jingtang and Han Xiner came out of the eldest brother's house.
Just then, he was about to go home with Han Xiner to rest. Taking advantage of the moonlight, he suddenly found his brother-in-law sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking at him quietly at this moment.
"Brother-in-law, haven't you rested yet?"
Chen Mu waved to him: "Come here and tell you two something."
Hearing this, the two of them stepped forward quickly: "Brother-in-law, what's the matter?"
Chen Mu pushed a box on the table to Liu Jingtang: "Here, there are ten taels of gold."
Hearing this, Liu Jingtang looked horrified: "Brother-in-law, why do you give me so much money?"
Chen Mu smiled: "Who told you to give it to you? Tomorrow, you have to transfer the money to the Yamen Master in charge of Beicheng. As for what I will do tomorrow, you should have guessed it. The purpose is to open up relationships and let people
Officials close their eyes."
"I...I? Brother-in-law, shouldn't it be appropriate for you to do this kind of thing? I'm only a seventeen-year-old boy. I can't control the situation. What should I do if I mess up?"
Liu Jingtang looked at Chen Mu in great horror. He never imagined that his brother-in-law would arrange such an important matter for him.
No matter how smart his brain is, he has never seen much of the world. Asking him to negotiate terms with the master of Yicheng in Bajun and not panic at all is all nonsense.
As for Chen Mu, Liu Jingtang's words did not change his original intention.
"Boy, if you want to succeed, don't be limited by your age. I'm here to support you. Whatever you're afraid of, just do it with confidence. You know that if you want inhuman achievements, you have to do inhuman things."
Liu Jingtang is a very smart boy, but the disadvantage is that he is still young and has not been tempered. No matter how good the jade material is, it needs to be carved and polished to become a beautiful jade.
Everyone cherishes talent. Every time he sees this kid, it's like seeing his old self. Chen Mu wants to be this craftsman. He wants to train this kid into a person who can stand alone.
After thinking about it, Chen Mu added: "If you can do it for me, I will let you be the leader of Changhe Street."
Hearing this word, Liu Jingtang was still a little confused: "Carry the leader? What is the leader?"
"He's the gang boss from Changhe Street."
When Liu Jingtang suddenly heard this sentence, his expression suddenly shrank. Isn't this... the power he has always longed for?
What is power? Controlling the human rights of others is called rights.
There was no hesitation at the moment and he agreed directly: "I will never disappoint my brother-in-law!"
