At nine-thirty, the door of "Jinghua Restaurant" was pushed open on time.
There is no doubt that Hong Yanwu is here.
He was still wearing the same rags and ragged clothes. The jacket that had been scratched by a "hidden spring" a few days ago had been mended again in private by Tailor Su, and he was still wearing it.
It's just that he seems to be a little bloated at this time. I don't know if it's because he's carrying a guy in his arms or because he's wearing too many clothes. But no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a "hands-on guy" who can make a big splash on the street.
, this made some juniors who saw him for the first time inevitably feel a little disappointed and contemptuous.
And what is quite surprising is that, apart from Chen Liquan, Hong Yanwu is only accompanied by a child half an age younger than him. Only a few people at the scene recognized him as a "Little Buddha" under "Da Long"
", called "Xiaobaizi".
This extremely low-key way of entering immediately made the "Bacha" side feel a lot more relaxed, while "Hongye" looked slightly embarrassed. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Hong Yanwu seemed to have a plan to compromise, and wasted his time.
I had been stubbornly resisting for a long time just now, but all my efforts were in vain.
As a confidant of "Old Ghost", "Xiao Leizi"'s main task today was to greet all the princes. So he took the initiative to greet Hong Yanwu without waiting for him to speak, and then brought the three of Hong Yanwu to several "hands".
Occupying a large round table.
The main negotiating table is close to the stove, which is the warmest. The people on the table are also shining brightly. Whoever slips out is a famous figure. Being able to sit at this table is actually because I followed all of you here today.
From the perspective of the subordinates here, their jobs are definitely over the top.
All four handles for the front door and overpass are gathered together.
The "big old fart" at Guang'an Gate, the "old man's bag" outside You'an Gate, and the "gongzi" at Yongding Gate sit firmly.
Although the "red leaves" on Baiguang Road don't look very good-looking, they look at the surroundings majestically.
The first and most important person at this table is of course the "old ghost" from Caishikou.
The "Old Ghost" is 1.8 meters tall, about the same height as Chen Liquan. On his rough face like the bark of an old elm tree, there are five or six glorious achievements that he fought with bloody swords in that year.
Hong Yanwu knew in his heart that this hegemonic master had built up his reputation in half a lifetime. He handled the fork and scraper just like his own son, and never left his body while sleeping. His two big hands, like cattail leaf fans, could grab six bricks.
As long as the unruly wolf eyes are turned up, something big is bound to happen, and someone may be unlucky. So there is no need for anyone to tell him, the first thing he has to say hello to the "old ghost" when he comes over.
"Brother Gui, I'm causing trouble for you today."
Together with Chen Liquan, Hong Yanwu respectfully raised his fists and raised his hands to the "old ghost". In one sentence, it was full of respect and etiquette, which made it impossible to see that he was careless and ignorant of the importance. This was in contrast to Hong Yanwu's unscrupulous and arrogant image in the hearts of everyone.
Very different.
For this, "Old Ghost" nodded to show satisfaction, while "Yasha" and "Hongye" were quite surprised.
But what they didn't expect was that Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan both clasped their fists and spun around at the "hands" sitting there, including "Bashi", "Little Landlord", "
Opponents such as "Gongzi", "Da Laofi" and "Lao Baochao" have not fallen behind. They appear to be quite generous, and they also reveal a sense of sophistication in dealing with people.
As a result, all the "old gunners" were surprised and had to hug their fists in return. After that, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan sat in the two empty seats specially reserved for them.
As for Xiao Baizi, he naturally did not receive such treatment. He could only stand behind Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan like a little follower. However, his hands were still in his arms and his eyes were staring at the surroundings warily.
At this time, since all the relevant people were in place, the negotiation should officially begin. The "old ghost" stood up, and his words did not go around the bush at all, and went straight to the topic.
"No need to introduce people, they are all acquaintances, and they all know what is going on. There is no need for common etiquette and politeness. What should I do? Everyone has to come up with their own thoughts. I am overestimating my ability. I want to make a difference today.
I will take the helm for you and try to be as impartial as possible. In order to clearly distinguish right from wrong and handle serious relationships properly. When I discuss things, it is nothing more than human feelings and I consider both sides of the truth."
Having said this, the "old ghost"'s eyes sharpened and his face became more serious. He said again in a serious tone.
"Of course, if you all really can't agree, I won't force you to lump you together. There is one last way in our circle, and that is to each rely on his own ability. Whoever conquers the other party will be the boss.
.But if it really gets to this level, there will inevitably be swords and swords and rivers of blood. As for me, whoever is the culprit for the breakdown of the talks this time, whoever drags everyone into the muddy pond, I will beat. You all.
It’s best to think clearly about where to go.”
The words "Old Ghost" were loud and clear, conveying an invisible coercion, which effectively acted as a knock on the mountain and shocked the tiger. They are all understanding people, so they naturally know what to do.
As expected, "Bacha", a thief, was the first to express his compliments to "Old Ghost", and then he took advantage of the situation and started to show his misery.
After what he said, the grandson not only colluded with the "small landowners" and "robbed Hu" to defeat the "big people", but also made a killing move against Hong Yanwu.
, he described himself as a confused person who did something wrong without knowing it. He also focused on exaggerating the badness of Hong Yanwu's "promoting people", so that everyone did not dare to go to the streets to arrest people, and the people in the market
The main responsibility for the chaos was placed on Hong Yanwu, and he said that he wanted to discuss his bad behavior first.
It was probably because they had done enough preparation work in the early stage. "Old Ghost", "Yao Zi" and "Nail" nodded silently after hearing this, and then they asked Hong Yanwu to give an indication on "carrying people out" first.
In this way, "Eight Cross" successfully took the lead at the beginning, and his team looked at Hong Yanwu with amusement attitude. They thought, it would be great if Hong Yanwu was so angry that he had to fight with a few people first.
The middle people antagonized each other.
But what they never expected was that Hong Yanwu was surprisingly calm. Not only was he not angry at all, but he actually accepted his head honestly. He even surprisingly expressed his willingness to accept the punishment of "three swords and six holes" for all kinds of people.
The "players" made an explanation. But the premise is that in order to treat his father's illness, "Basha" and the "little landlord" must also compensate him financially.
At this point, it seems that there is really a possibility of reaching a settlement quickly. The "Bacha" and "small landowners" couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Most of them believed that Hong Yanwu was powerless and had already begun to retreat due to the situation and did not dare to be arrogant anymore.
Domineering and unscrupulous.
Although "Hongye" was puzzled by Hong Yanwu's sudden change in temperament and his willingness to compromise, on the other hand, he also understood that if the war could be resolved, it would be a good thing for him to retreat safely.
Just like that, after the "old ghost" and a few middlemen whispered a few words, they began to inquire about the meaning of "Bashi" and "Little Landlord".
"Bacha"'s mind immediately began to spin rapidly. He murmured a few words to the "little landowner" and quickly quoted a price. He said he was willing to pay 800 yuan, which was regarded as the purchase from the "big citizen".
The half of the No. 40 bus line. And the half of the "Gongzi" bus line, they didn't mention it at all.
It should be said that not taking enough advantage and pushing too far are common problems of most gangsters. Since Hong Yanwu behaved so obediently, if "Bacha" didn't take the opportunity to offer a good price, then it wouldn't be him. In addition, he invited "Old Man" this time
"Ghost" was the man in the middle, and "Big Lao Fart" and "Lao Feng" were brought in to help, and he also offered a big price. If he didn't find a way to get more benefits, he would have to lose all his money afterwards.
Of course, in the eyes of "Bacha", Hong Yanwu might not agree outright, but bargaining is normal. He offered a fortune of 200 yuan. It is estimated that as soon as Hong Yanwu counter-offered and he gave a round sum, the matter would be over.
It’s done.
But in fact, this wishful thinking was definitely wrong. Because the kindness and self-cultivation that Hong Yanwu showed today only ended here. As soon as he heard the price, he immediately stopped doing it and quoted the price himself.
The price instantly shocked the audience.
Absolutely ignorant! He actually said that he would let the "Bacha" and the "small landowner" cough up two thousand yuan without any conditions. If they wanted 40 yuan, they would have to add another two thousand yuan!
A total of four thousand yuan!
In this day and age, even this group of people who eat a lot of food every day, live a life where there is no tomorrow, and spend a lot of money, think it is a fantasy!
The "little landowner" was the first to get anxious. "Little boy, what the hell are you dreaming about!"
"Bacha" scolded him. "Why are you pretending to be a big guy? You are pretending to be a tiger and want to eat people!"
"Gongzi" also pretended to be powerful. "Are you going to reimburse your family's lifetime medical expenses? Do you really think we are running a charity?"
"Big Old Fart" was even more angry. "'Red Boy' is a 30-pound dog and a 40-pound baby. Do you still know how much you weigh?"
"Old man" spoke the loudest. "You are really cool, you just don't walk into the crowd, are you? Find someone to talk to!"
Similarly, several of their subordinates started yelling and swearing, and kept saying obscene words. Although it was inevitable that they were cheering for their eldest brother, there was also a large part of them that they really couldn't stand and were filled with righteous indignation!
There was really no way, even "Hongye" felt that Hong Yanwu was crazy about money!
The three of them, "Old Ghost", "Yaozi" and "Nail" shook their heads. Everyone felt that Hong Yanwu was talking like a lion and had no sincerity. So a few people touched each other, and finally "Old Ghost" came forward.
Responsible for beating.
"'Red Boy', I have to advise you. People, life is not just about one breath, but also about the long future. If you have a grudge, a slap will not make a difference. As the old saying goes, you are all mutually exclusive, and no one will obey the other.
, that’s why we are like this. We are all living in society, and face is indeed important. However, if we fight to the death and everyone pays, there will be nothing. Now is the time to show the sincerity of all parties. You have to really feel
The price they offered at 'Bacha' is not right, you can add a little more, but it can't be too outrageous, and the price will be the same as the deal. You're not here just to fool the big guys, are you?"
"Big brother, I know you are doing it for my own good. What you mean is that everything is worth a word, and conversely, it is not worth it. This is because you think I am young and energetic, and you are afraid that I will delay myself for the sake of fighting.
For this, I have to thank you..."
Hong Yanwu's first few words were quite polite and clear, and the "old ghost"'s face softened, but then he changed his tone and directly said harsh words.
"...But! The 'Bacha' people have forced me to a dead end! If I don't take this money, my father will have to wait for death. So until this matter ends, you can leave it alone, even if I fail you
I understand. If you allow me to be confused again, my path will end in darkness..."
