Now that Luo Xing is here, Lu Shanmin doesn't have to worry at all. If the other party doesn't bring it up, he won't bring it up even if he makes up his mind. Just chat with him as if he doesn't know anything.
Lu Shanmin smiled and said: "Brother Luo, if you like it, I can lend you these two books to read."
Luo Xing smiled and looked at Lu Shanmin, "Can you give it to me?"
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "I'm not stingy, I also borrowed these two books."
"Hahahaha", "Just kidding, this thing gives me a headache".
He put down the two books and sat back on the sofa, "Brother, don't say that I didn't remind you that studying is useless. Look at my company, many of them are college students. You don't have to listen to me as a big brother?"
The boss kept shouting, "In this world, money is the boss. No matter how many books you read, you still have to work hard for money. So it is better to save your precious time and spend it on making money."
, do you think this is true?"
Lu Shanmin chuckled and said, "Brother Luo is right, I just browse through it to pass the time when I have nothing to do."
Luo Xing nodded, "That's good, don't get in there. I've seen a lot of scholars who have no football skills. Instead, they are covered in sour smell. I want to beat them up when I see them. Damn it."
Disgusting".
Lu Shanmin smiled. There was no need for him to argue with people like Luo Xing about the benefits of studying. In fact, he couldn't tell what the essential benefits of studying were.
"Thank you, Brother Luo, for reminding me, I will pay attention to it."
Luo Xing lit a cigarette and looked at Lu Shanmin from the corner of his eye: "It was reported in the news a few days ago that a section chief of the Supervision Department of the Work Safety Supervision Bureau was cheated. Have you seen this news?"
Lu Shanmin noticed Luo Xing's peripheral vision. It seemed that he had already suspected that this matter had something to do with him. After experiencing so many things, Lu Shanmin now knew the benefits of borrowing power. He was not going to admit it, nor was he willing to admit it.
I'm going to deny it, but leaving room for personal imagination can make people think more highly of it.
He smiled and said: "I saw it. I heard that he was asking for bribes. Such a worm should have been dealt with long ago."
Luo Xing narrowed his eyes and continued to ask: "Then do you know who he asked for a bribe from?"
Lu Shanmin pretended to hesitate, "Well, I'm just a small security guard on Minsheng West Road. I don't know the inside story of these big things."
Luo Xing looked at Lu Shanmin's hesitant eyes and smiled knowingly, "You haven't encountered any trouble in the bar during this time."
Lu Shanmin knew that Luo Xing was probing further, so he smiled and said: "The last surprise inspection by the Industry and Commerce and Food and Drug Administration seems to be just an accident. During this period, the three bars have finally returned to their former prosperity."
"Hahahahahaha", "Mountain people, why are you so careless with Big Brother? The person who caused you trouble gave me a red envelope. How could there be so many accidents?"
Lu Shanmin pretended to be embarrassed and touched his head, "Brother Luo has a bright eye. In fact, the fact that this matter can be solved smoothly depends on a lot of luck."
"Luck"? Luo Xing looked at Lu Shanmin thoughtfully, "Can you tell me what kind of good luck you have encountered?"
After successfully arousing Luo Xing's curiosity, Lu Shanmin accepted the offer, but of course he couldn't tell him the whole story. Otherwise, how could he think more highly of himself, and it would be difficult to raise the price in the subsequent bargaining.
"Haha, if I solved it myself, I would definitely tell you all the details, but this matter involves a friend of mine, so it's really not convenient to tell you."
Luo Xing took a deep breath of cigarette and became more and more optimistic about this mountain villager. If it was somewhat lucky to replace Wang Dahu before, then this time, he did not believe it was luck. When things happened at the beginning, Jiang Qin found him with a red envelope.
, when he kept himself out of the matter, he felt that Lu Shanmin could not escape this time. After all, a young man from a large company, whether in terms of financial resources or social background, was definitely not something that a security manager from Minsheng West Road could compete with.
.
In his opinion, it was a dead game. He was really curious about how Lu Shanmin cracked it. But since Lu Shanmin didn't want to say it, he couldn't force the question. He became more and more curious about Lu Shanmin in his heart, and even vaguely felt that he could still do it in the future.
Keep creating miracles.
Luo Xing laughed, "I understand this. Keeping friends secret is the basic morality of people in the world."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Luo, for understanding."
Seeing that Lu Shanmin never mentioned asking him to help expand his business, Luo Xing smiled secretly. He really didn't know if Lu Shanmin had really forgotten this matter, or if this kid had already reached such a high level in the city. If the city was so deep
At this point, this kid's future prospects are really limitless. Now I can help him with a little effort, which can be regarded as a great good relationship.
"Mountain people, you said last time that you were afraid that your business would be too single and you didn't want to put your eggs in one basket. What are your thoughts now?"
Lu Shanmin smiled knowingly. It seemed that Luo Xing could no longer hold his anger. Since the other party had taken the initiative to bring it up, he couldn't be too pretentious, otherwise he would lose this opportunity and lose everything.
"Brother Luo, to be honest, I have been worried since the last incident. In business, if one day you and Hu Weiyong abandon me for greater interests, I will have no way out.
After all, more than 20 people came to eat with me, and I have to be responsible for them."
“So you want to expand your business”.
Lu Shanmin nodded, "Those people under me have no other skills except working as security guards to look after the place. It is not an exaggeration to call a place like Minsheng West Road a slum. Apart from three bars, there is really nothing to find."
To a place that can support them. Although the East China Sea is big, outside of Minsheng West Road, I have a dark eye. I can’t even find the direction to the southeast, northwest, let alone expand business. So during this period, although I
I’m worried, but there’s nothing I can do.”
Luo Xing did not intend to beat around the bush anymore and said straightforwardly: "This is not difficult. I have been hanging out in the Parkway District all my life. I can't get into the high-end circles. I am very familiar with the three religions and nine streams. I think I also worked as a bartender back then.
Regarding the venue, if you are willing, I can make a recommendation for you."
Lu Shanmin said gratefully, "Brother Luo, I thank you on behalf of the more than 20 brothers under my command."
Luo Xing laughed and said directly: "I am a straightforward person. If I can speak clearly directly, I will not play around with me. I don't need their thanks. I only need your thanks."
Lu Shanmin nodded affirmatively, "People in the mountains don't understand the truth, but they still understand the four words of repaying kindness with gratitude."
Luo Xing laughed loudly, "Don't be too excited. To tell you the truth, every piece of cake is not unnecessary. If you want to expand your business, you will naturally touch other people's cakes. The East China Sea is very big, and the Parkway District is not
Xiao, everyone has their own fixed territory, I'm just introducing you, but don't think that I will go into this muddy water with you."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "Brother Luo's introduction is already a great favor. How dare the mountain people ask for more?"
Luo Xing chuckled, "Also, don't use my name."
Looking at Luo Xing's smile, Lu Shanmin always felt that his smile was a little weird. It felt a bit like when he was hunting and finally saw his prey falling into a preset trap. Lu Shanmin even vaguely felt that his smile was mixed with some...
The taste of schadenfreude.
He was a hunter and could sense small changes keenly, but he really couldn't figure out why Luo Xing showed such a smile.
Lu Shanmin smiled secretly. In the past six months, Minsheng West Road has gone through all kinds of intrigues and conspiracies, so that now it has become a shackles. Even a smile from others will associate so many things.
"Brother Luo, don't worry, I know what's appropriate and will never cause you any trouble."
Luo Xing smiled and said, "Whenever you are free, I will help you invite a few people to come out to talk. Whether the negotiation can be successful depends on your own ability."
Lu Shanmin nodded, "I have some personal matters to deal with recently. I'll go find you in half a month."
"Okay", "Hahahahaha" Luo Xing stood up, "come and sit with me when you have time, I will hinder your work today."
Lu Shanmin stood up and said, "I'll take you out."
Hu Ming and the little security guard stood in the corner. The little security guard's eyes kept scanning the crowd, even when he was chatting with Hu Ming, his eyes did not stop.
Hu Ming was a little careless. He had stayed in this bar for more than a week and there was not even a single incident that caused trouble. He felt that this little security guard was too cautious.
Seeing Hu Ming smoking a cigarette out of boredom, the security guard kicked Hu Ming on the butt and said, "You kid, can you be more serious? If brother Zhou Tong sees us not paying attention at work, be careful and get beaten."
Hu Ming glared at the little security guard angrily, "You can watch as much as you want, and stop meddling in my business."
The little security guard pulled the cigarette out of Hu Ming's mouth and said, "Fuck, I'm on the same team as you. Don't harm me even if you die."
Hu Ming was about to get angry when he saw the door of Lu Shanmin's office on the second floor opened, and then Lu Shanmin and a middle-aged man came out. As the two went downstairs and got closer, Hu Ming was so excited that he grabbed the security guard's arm.
Hand, "Is that middle-aged man named Luo Xing?"
The little security guard slapped Hu Ming's hand away and said, "Do you want to die? Stand up straight and don't affect my image in the mind of Brother Shanmin."
Hu Ming pouted and didn't even look in the mirror, thinking, you look like a fucking piece of coal, it's weird that that bastard Lu Shanmin would look at you.
Watching Lu Shanmin and Luo Xing walk out of the bar, Hu Ming was full of excitement. He had heard of who Luo Xing was. Not only him, but everyone who had been around the Parkway District knew that he was known as Luo Tianwang. Among the older generation, he
Among the children, Hu Ming was regarded as an idol. Hu Ming was not interested in studying, but he always had a soft spot for messing around in the world. When he was messing around in school, he once claimed to be Luo Xing's younger brother, which scared him away.
There were four or five gangsters.
Although it is said that Luo Xing has washed his hands and opened a regular company, the shadow of the famous tree still lingers.
If Lu Shanmin hadn't followed him, Hu Ming would have rushed up to the idol to take a photo and sign his autograph.
Hu Ming was even more afraid of Lu Shanmin and more convinced. He could talk and laugh with people like Luo Xing, so how could he be an ordinary person?
Hu Ming, who had been thinking about how to escape from the clutches of the Lushan people, was secretly glad that hanging out with the Lushan people seemed to be a good choice.
After seeing Luo Xing off, Lu Shanmin walked back to the bar and happened to see Hu Ming standing not far from the door.
Seeing Lu Shanmin walking towards him, Hu Ming shuddered and was beaten twice. Today, he heard the security guard tell about his past, and he was really scared. This is a master who has killed people.
.
"Hu Ming, come to my office."
Hu Ming looked like a security guard looking for help, but the security guard kicked him on the butt, "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you hear Brother Shanmin call you?" After saying that, the security guard shouted at Lu Shanmin.
giggle.
Hu Ming followed Lu Shanmin into the office fearfully. As the office door slammed shut, his heart trembled.
Lu Shanmin sat on the boss's chair and looked at Hu Ming calmly. In fact, the age gap between them was not too big. Lu Shanmin was only one year older than him.
Seeing the shivering Hu Ming, Lu Shanmin's mind flashed to the words of the old professor, "The wall of the university blocks the erosion of the secular world on college students. It also blocks the eyes of college students and surrounds their hearts."
The difference between people inside the wall and those outside the wall, between those who have experienced society and those who have not, can be seen at a glance.
Lu Shanmin smiled slightly, "Am I that scary?"
Hu Ming was stunned for a moment. Lu Shanmin's originally natural smile seemed to him to be sinister and terrifying. He didn't know where he offended Lu Shanmin again.
"Lu,,,oh, Brother Shanmin, what do you want from me?"
Lu Shanmin pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down."
Glancing at the sofa, Hu Ming wanted to sit on it. After standing all night, Hu Ming's legs were already weak.
Hu Ming showed a wry smile and said, "No, I feel comfortable standing."
Lu Shanmin smiled. It seemed that beating him twice had a good effect. At least he understood what it meant to be afraid.
"Hu Ming, do you know why your father arranged for you to come to my place?"
Seeing that Lu Shanmin had no intention of repairing him, Hu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"You know, I'm not good at studying. My dad asked me to hang out with you. I hope I can make a name for myself."
Lu Shanmin frowned slightly, "I don't like the word 'hustler'."
Hu Ming hurriedly said, "Oh, it's learning, learn from Brother Shanmin."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "I don't dare to study. As you know, I am a mountain villager. I have been in Donghai for less than a year. To be honest, I don't know as much as you do, and my understanding of this city is far less than that of you."
you".
After a pause, he continued: "Actually, I don't know how to teach you, but your father put you here with me. If I don't say or do anything, I will feel very sorry."
Hu Ming chuckled and said, "Brother Shanmin, you say it and I listen."
Seeing Hu Ming's sarcastic smile, he was completely different from the arrogant and domineering person he was when they first met. Lu Shanmin smiled secretly. If you want to reason with someone, it seems you have to make the other person afraid of you first before you can convince him.
No matter how good the theory is, it sounds like nonsense to others.
"I haven't had parents since I was a child, so I don't know what it would be like to be a child with parents."
Hu Ming said: "I know this. It feels very bad. It's just like my dad, who always arranges for me to do this and that, without any freedom at all, and my mom, who nags me all the time.
Stop, you are forcing me to eat another bowl even though I am already full, and,,".
Lu Shanmin glared at Hu Ming, and Hu Ming quickly shut his mouth, "Brother Shanmin, you tell me, I'll listen."
"When I was working on a construction site, I met a migrant worker named Luo Zhixuan. In order to raise money for his son to buy a house, he was forced to steal cables. Later, when he was found out, he jumped off the building and committed suicide in shame. His blood spattered all over the floor.
under my feet".
Lu Shanmin looked at Hu Ming, "Don't you think such a father is great?"
Hu Ming could see some emotion in his eyes and nodded, "This father is really great."
Lu Shanmin felt a sense of relief. It seemed like a child could be taught. However, his relief did not last for a second. Hu Ming continued: "Last time I cried and begged my dad to buy me a car, but he refused to agree."
. Then he looked at Lu Shanmin and said, "Brother Shanmin, this story is very good. I decided to go back and tell it to my dad to let him see how other people become fathers."
Lu Shanmin felt stuffy and coughed twice, "I want to tell you that children with parents are already very happy. You have to be content."
Hu Ming shook his head, "Brother Shanmin, I disagree with this statement. People like you without parents are a minority in this world after all. Most people have parents. According to what you say, these people should be very happy.
, but the actual situation is definitely not like this, so it is not scientific."
Lu Shanmin gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could rush up and beat him again.
Seeing Lu Shanmin's expression, Hu Ming subconsciously took a step back and said sarcastically, "Brother Shanmin, you tell me, I'll listen."
Lu Shanmin cursed secretly, "I'm talking nonsense, you kid can't hear every word I say, it's no different than a chicken talking to a duck."
Taking a deep breath, he continued: "Your parents will grow old one day, and you must learn to grow up slowly, otherwise how will you gain a foothold in this society in the future."
Hu Ming laughed and said proudly: "Brother Shanmin, you don't have to worry about this. I have already thought about it. My parents have two houses, two bars, and a teahouse in Donghai. I
My plan is, after I take over, I will sell the bar and teahouse and buy two houses. There are so many people coming from the East China Sea and there are so few houses. From now on, I will just lie down and collect rent every day."
"Hey, Brother Shanmin, I think it's too boring to just live with enough food and clothing. Life is only a few decades, so you have to live vigorously, just like Luo Xing, or just like you,
My goal in life is to become a legend."
Lu Shanmin was so angry that he was shaking all over, "Shut up, am I trying to reason with you, or are you trying to reason with me?"
