Chapter 170: Living Yama, Living Bodhisattva?
Lu Nan is definitely ruthless enough, absolutely courageous enough, he was born with a kind of temperament of commanding the group, as long as his eyes are slanted, it is enough to make people tremble.
He has a characteristic, the more angry he is, the whiter his face becomes, Du Yuesheng, a bigwig in Shanghai during the Republic of China, said that people who drink or lose their temper and turn pale are people who are brave and brave, this kind of person is more terrible than the red-faced Guan Gong, Qin Wuyang in the Warring States Period is one, his face is pale when he is angry, and the people who heard that he killed him dare not look at his eyes.
But Lu Nan has a huge shortcoming, he is too arrogant, too blind, too bold, never disdainful of the line of continuous learning and thinking like Zhang Zhening, his motto is only one: people block and kill gods and Buddhas and kill Buddhas!
This is also the reason why Lu Nan's reputation and achievements in the initial and growth periods are much greater than Zhang Zhening's, but he was shot when he was never able to enter a higher level.
In times of peace, bandits will never have a chance to recruit security, and Lu Nan is a contemporary bandit.
In most cities in China, almost every newly completed community gate will have some small stalls that do decoration and seal balconies to sell stone building materials.
These stalls seem ordinary, but the water inside is deep, not everyone can set up stalls in those places, and behind them, the forces of the rivers and lakes are also manipulating.
The area around the east gate has developed rapidly, and the newly built communities have been built one after another, and the "monopoly industry" that used to set up stalls at the entrance of the community was basically doing winter melons, and Lu Nan did not rob him, they all ate Jianghu rice, and the basic rules had to be paid attention to.
In fact, this kind of behavior does not have any substantial interests of the owners of the community, although the stalls selling building materials and decoration at the door are violent means to occupy the market, but the work is not sloppy, the price and quality are passable, so the owners are not too serious, the same price and quality, who does not do.
But that pattern was soon broken.
The people of the Northeast have always been known for their unity and ferocity, and almost every city has their shadow, and the city of Shudu is no exception.
Originally, they were active in the area around the West Gate, which was their base, but gradually, they began to be dissatisfied and began to think about expanding outward.
The north gate is inhabited by rich people, who cannot afford to offend, and the south gate is inhabited by powerful people, and they dare not provoke.
The East Gate is currently being developed in a big way, and there are a bunch of ruffians and hooligans over there, so it naturally becomes the first choice.
So, one day, a group of big men with big shoulders and round waists and speaking with a northeast accent suddenly appeared on the east gate, and they were not in a hurry to use force directly, but stayed honestly at the east gate for more than a week.
It was only after more than a week that they began to use violent means to attack the stalls set up at the entrance of the community, and for a time the storm swept through the clouds, and the newly built dozen or so communities were all occupied by them in less than two days.
The strange thing is that the winter melon, which has always maintained a monopoly on this industry before, is standing still, and it is as if they didn't see it when they come from this group of northeasterners.
You know, these stall owners set up at the entrance of the new community, all of them have to "offer" to the winter melon every month, they have an accident, and the winter melon should stand up to help, but the winter melon is surprisingly quiet this time.
These small vendors who were robbed of their jobs cried and went to Donggua for help, but Donggua avoided it and asked a younger brother to bring them a message, "You don't have to pay the management fee in the future, you can do your own thing, don't come to me again." ”
The vendors wanted to cry without tears.
In the past, when winter melon was monopolized, as long as they appropriately took out 20% of the profits every month and handed them over to winter melon, they could be safe.
But this time, the group of people from the Northeast who came to visit suddenly did not give them this opportunity, beat them away with wooden sticks and steel pipes, and then set up their own stalls.
The small vendors who were forced to go hungry, in desperation, had no choice but to buy good cigarettes and wine to find another big brother on the east gate: Living Yama Lunan!
"Brother Nan, you have to call the shots for us in this matter, our family is supported by this, and now the business can't be done, our family has to go hungry!"
These small vendors have snot and tears, but they are telling the truth, they are all from the countryside, it is not easy to find some work in the city, and the rice bowl is smashed, and they really have to go hungry.
Lu Nan, who was wearing a neat and tidy white shirt, frowned slightly, "What about the winter melon?
The vendors cried with tears and snot, "We went to look for it, but Brother Donggua said that he didn't care about it in the future, Brother Nan, you have to help us, our family is still waiting for dinner." ”
Lu Nan is not a living bodhisattva who saves suffering, and after frowning and muttering for a while, he said, "I can't control this matter, you go back, it's really not good, just go to the farmer's market to get something to sell, I don't charge you management fees." ”
The industries involved in the various rivers and lakes in the east gate are distinct, and almost all of them are equally divided by Lunan and winter melons, such as the area of the farmers' market is the management scope of Lunan.
When those small vendors heard this, they immediately knelt on the ground with a puff, "Brother Nan, you can do well, save our family, we will kneel down for you, as long as you let us continue to work, we will give you 20% of the profit every month in the future, no, 30% of the profit, Brother Nan"
Seeing these old men who were all older than themselves kneeling in front of him with a handful of snot and tears, Living Yama Lunan couldn't help but feel compassion.
He knew very well the living conditions of this group of people, drank tap water when he was thirsty, and the food he ate was basically a boxed lunch, which belonged to people who could not save anymore, and kept every penny and sent it home.
Finally, Lu Nan sighed softly, "Okay, I'll go over and see later, you can take these cigarettes and alcohol, I don't miss these." ”
Living Yama Lunan, facing a group of poor people living at the bottom of society, suddenly became a living Bodhisattva Lunan.
Living Yama and Bodhisattva hearts are not contradictory sometimes.
That night, Lu Nan feasted several leaders of the Northeast Yankees in Lin Xiao's restaurant.
Lu Nan is a well-known figure at the east gate, and he naturally wants to save face when he treats those Northeast Yankees.
Northeast people have a bold personality, and the amount of alcohol is also very good, as soon as they are on the table, they shout five and drink six, talk loudly and drink in a big bowl, Lu Nan does not speak much, but it is also a cup after cup to accompany them to drink.
Lu Nan went alone that day, and even Xiong San didn't bring them, because he didn't take this group of northeasters in his eyes at all, besides, this is still the east gate, his own territory, and he has full confidence to settle this matter.
After drinking, I went to a nightclub to find a beautiful woman, then went to a sauna, and then went to a teahouse to talk about business, this is the basic process of dealing with Jianghu people.
"Brother Zhou, I have to trouble you with something. Lu Nan took the lead in getting to the point.
The leader of the group of Northeast Yankees is a man named Da Lao Zhou, like many Northeast men, tall and strong, with a shaved head, and he can be seen at a glance that he is a "social person".
"Mr. Lu is polite, just say what you want, my brother must do what he can do. Da Lao Zhou replied very boldly, but in fact, he probably knew why Lu Nan was looking for him.
Lu Nandao, "Those small vendors at the gate of the community came to me today, saying that you robbed them of their jobs, those individuals are poor, and the family is still waiting for them to feed, I mean, it's okay for you to get a little money here, but you have to leave a way to live with people, and I will let them pay you some management fees every month in the future." ”
Lu Nan is giving enough face, because this is not his business, if this group of northeasterners violated his "scope of management", it may not be this kind of solution today.
Lu Nan is just thinking about helping those poor people who are not easy, and there is no need to erect a group of enemies for himself.
Elder Zhou took a sip of tea, looked at the table lamp on the table, and said, "Brother, I may not be able to help with this matter, I also have a large group of brothers to support." ”
Lu Nan smiled, "But you can't help but leave a way for people to live!"
Elder Zhou shook his head slightly, "I'm really sorry, I really can't help this." ”
Syllable!
Lu Nan suddenly slammed the teacup on the ground, and Da Lao Zhou immediately raised his head.
Lu Nan stared at Da Lao Zhou's eyes with a calm face, "Are you really planning to force people to death?"
Da Lao Zhou shook his head slightly, "There's really no way about this." ”
"That's fine!"
Lu Nan didn't talk nonsense, he stood up directly, just took two steps out, suddenly turned back again, kicked the table to the ground, and then scolded "", and then swaggered downstairs.
After hearing the movement, several Northeast Yankees next to him rushed out of the private room to block Lu Nan's way.
"Get out!"
Lu Nan's eyes narrowed, and his voice was not loud, but there was a chill.
Those few Northeast people couldn't help but feel a little weak, but they still didn't move, when the two sides were tense, the elder Zhou beckoned to them, and those Northeast people got out of the way.
Lu Nan scolded "" again, and then shook his hand away.
"Big brother, who is that person, dare to fucking kick the table, do you want me to take a few brothers to abolish him!" said indignantly in the direction of Lu Nan's departure.
Elder Zhou lit a cigarette unhurriedly, then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, a touch of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Inform the brothers, when you go out tomorrow, you will bring the guys with you." ”
If negotiations fail, then the matter will have to be resolved by force, which is an eternal law.
Lu Nan actually didn't think about doing anything with this group of Northeast people at all, but he never expected that he would talk to them so politely, and the other party would have such an attitude.
In this way, isn't that the business of that group of poor vendors, on the territory of the East Gate, if you dare not give him the face of the south of the road, then this matter will not be trivial.
So the next morning, at the gate of a certain community, when a few Northeast people were preparing to "open for business", they suddenly found that their stalls there were smashed and replaced by several other stalls.
A few Northeast people didn't say a word, picked up the guy from their bodies and strode over.
