The headquarters of Honglin Gate is an ancient compound. It is said to be an old house of the Zhou family. The ancestors of the Zhou family were wealthy businessmen in the north and produced several high-ranking officials during the Qing Dynasty. They were famous in Giessen Province for a while.
, the well-deserved first family.
However, when the reform and opening up came later, the Zhou family became tainted with the elements of landlords, and all the property and houses in the family were confiscated. The big house in front of them was also designated as a commune canteen compound at that time. When it was a large collective, it had thousands of houses.
When people eat here, it's a lively experience.
However, in Zhou Dian's generation, several brothers of the Zhou family took advantage of the Cultural Revolution to start a business and became those who successfully made the first pot of gold with socialist characteristics.
After making money, the Zhou family brothers continued to expand their business and acquired a certain underworld background. After so many years of development, the Zhou family has become one of the best in Giessen Province, both in business and in the underworld.
.
Youdao is that it is easy to conquer the world together, but it is not easy to divide the world equally.
When the Zhou brothers worked together, the eight brothers worked together. But after everything reached a certain scale, the issue of equal distribution of interests caused the brothers to turn against each other. Zhou Dian was the eldest among the brothers in the family.
People like to call him Zhou Laoer, and those with more honorific titles call him Brother Zhou.
Zhou Dian is a typical ruthless person and the most scheming among the eight brothers. He first joined forces with several other brothers to bring down the brothers who were allied with his eldest brother, and finally brought down several brothers who were allied with him.
The brothers were eliminated one after another.
At this time, Zhou Dian was living in a luxurious room in the headquarters. The decoration in the room was splendid and resembling an ancient royal palace. To use what he often said to himself, his ancestors from the Zhou family had gone to Beijing to serve as officials.
, Those who live a life of fine clothing and fine food cannot lose the face of their ancestors. When their status is reached, they must enjoy what they should enjoy.
In the past few days, Zhou Dian has always been inexplicably restless. In his dreams at night, he often dreams of his dead brothers, asking for their lives with pale faces and staring eyes.
Of the eight brothers, including him, only three are still alive. The eldest is blind and is now waiting to die in an ordinary nursing home in Giessen Province. The seventh is slumped in a wheelchair, eating, drinking and defecating.
Relying on others to take care of you is also a life of suffering.
He choked the eldest son's eyes with lime, and he had the legs of the seventh eldest son broken. The reason why the eldest son and the seventh son were left behind was not because Zhou Dianliang discovered it, but because the eldest son and the seventh son had no children.
There was no threat to him at all. As for the others, he tortured them all to death in various ways and covered up the truth. He also sent those nephews and nieces abroad when they were young.
In the past two days, Zhou Dian invited several local Taoist priests to perform rituals, fearing that he would really be killed. Last night, an idle Taoist priest, wearing a sloppy Taoist robe, stood at the door of the compound and shook his head.
After a hexagram, he only said one sentence: "There is a funeral!" and left in a hurry.
After Zhou Dian heard about it, he immediately asked someone to chase him. It had been half a day and he still couldn't catch him anywhere.
Zhou Dian was panicking. Could it be that his lifespan was about to end? But he had his fortune told by someone and found that he could live to at least eighty, and today he was just over fifty.
In the room, there was a soft big bed, two little beauties with bare shoulders and pink thongs, wrapped around Zhou Dian's already aging body in his fifties. He was holding wine in his hand and touching the little beauties with the other hand.
With such beautiful breasts, a boy can only be comfortable like this in his life.
Dong dong dong...
There was a knock on the door, and Zhou Dian asked impatiently: "What's the matter?"
"master……"
What came from outside the door was the voice of the butler Wangcai, hesitating and trembling, something happened!
"What's the matter, Wangcai?" Zhou Dian shook the wine glass, put it aside, sat up and waved to the two little girls, who put on their large nightgowns and sat aside.
"Master, there are guests outside who want to see you." Wangcai's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.
"oh?"
Zhou Dian got out of bed, and the two little ladies quickly got clothes for him to put on.
With a squeaking sound, the door carved with ancient palace patterns opened, and Zhou Dian walked out.
The old housekeeper bowed down, not daring to raise his head to look at Zhou Dian, "O-Master..."
Snap!
Zhou Dian suddenly slapped the housekeeper Wangcai in the face and cursed: "Hesitating, speak quickly if you have something to say, and fart if you have any. Who gave you this bad habit?"
Wangcai staggered after being beaten, and covered his face with his hands, saying: "Master, it seems to be related to the second young master. Those two people said they came from Shencheng, and they even brought something."
"oh?"
Zhou Dian narrowed his eyes slightly and walked towards the reception hall in the front yard. Butler Wangcai quickly followed.
In the reception hall, Hou Xiaobao and Qiu Chi were sitting on simple wooden stools. There were two cups of tea on the table next to them. Qiu Chi was thirsty and wanted to drink, but Hou Xiaobao stopped him with a look.
Qiu Chi said: "What the hell monkey, this tea has been served, why can't you drink it?"
Hou Xiaobao said: "This is our first time coming to Honglin Gate, and you know what we are bringing. It is better to be cautious. It is not certain whether we can go back alive today."
Qiu Chi's face turned pale and he said, "Didn't you tell me that you'll be fine?"
Hou Xiaobao said: "I was just trying to comfort you."
Qiu Chi said: "Damn, if I had known this, why would we take the risk in person? Just throw the body at the gate and just call the people inside to inform them."
Hou Xiaobao said: "That's what I say, but I won't be reconciled if I don't come to see this Zhou Dian."
Qiu Chi said: "You kid..."
While he was talking, Zhou Dian had already walked over from the yard at the back. Zhou Dian was in his fifties, about 1.75 meters tall, and had a fairly strong figure, but the look on his face was a little too drunk.
Neither Qiu Chi nor Hou Xiaobao moved, but looked calmly at Zhou Dian who walked in.
Zhou Dian raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that these two young men were so impressive, but they didn't even stand up to say hello when they saw him, and their expressions immediately turned ugly.
Zhou Dian sat on the main seat. Butler Wangcaihou stood aside, with a dark face, and said coldly to Hou Xiaobao and Qiu Chi: "You two, our master is here."
Hou Xiaobao ignored the housekeeper and looked very calm. He raised his hand to Zhou Dian and said, "I have heard of Mr. Zhou's name for a long time. I am lucky enough to meet him today. I am glad to meet you!"
Zhou Dian smiled coldly and said: "I have seen too many young people like you who are not afraid of tigers and are rude, and many of them died in my hands."
Hou Xiaobao's heart stirred slightly, and a chill arose, but his face remained expressionless as he said, "Mr. Zhou, we are here today to bring your son back for you."
Zhou Dian, who had just picked up the teacup, slapped the teacup on the table with a bang. His face, which had been cold and cold just now, suddenly said with murderous intent: "What's wrong with my son?"
Hou Xiaobao said: "Mr. Zhou, we are just following orders, we don't know anything else."
Zhou Dianteng suddenly stood up, with a murderous look on his face, and shouted, "Tie them up!" (To be continued)
