The taxi carrying Li Yi and the three of them, after leaving Pingle City for more than ten minutes, slowly slowed down, only a little faster than the speed of a bicycle.

Both sides of the road are lined with tall poplar trees, and the occasional loud cicada chirps can be heard from the thick and fat green leaves. After not sleeping all night, Guan Ke finally couldn't resist the hypnotic cicada chirping, leaned back on the seat and fell asleep.

The old man who was called Brother Zhu by Li Yi drove a taxi leisurely while chatting with the old big brother, and when he saw that the customer really fell asleep, he said to Li Yi: "Do you really think that such a young man can take over your position?"

Li Yi let out a long yawn, his eyelids were half-drooping, and he wanted to sleep like a guest with a tired face. He closed his eyes and said, "At least he's not bad." As soon as his words fell, his eyes were completely closed, a slight snoring came out, and he quickly fell asleep.

The old man who was driving saw that the two of them were too tired, so he didn't ask any more questions, but drove the car steadily.

This leisurely road trip lasted for half a day, and when the customs passenger woke up in a drowsy state, he could already faintly hear the sound of the waves in his ears, and his breath was full of moist air. I had been in the hot and dry city for a long time, so as soon as I felt the moist cool breeze blowing from the open car window, I felt refreshed, and the dizziness I felt when I first woke up dissipated immediately.

Li Yi was still asleep on the chair next to him, perhaps because the fatigue of the days made him too tired, and he slept very sweetly.

"You're awake. I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Zhu Yan, I am a brother with your helper, you can call me Zhu Grandpa in the future. The old man who drove the car introduced himself in a simple sentence or two, as if he was really an old man next door, without the slightest speciality.

But how could Guan Ke think that he was an ordinary old man? Judging from the fact that no one dared to ask after passing many checkpoints, he must be a big man in a high position. Guan Ke has never dared to provoke people with real power, let alone a person who obeys the orders of the traffic police in a city, so Guan Ke did not dare to slack off and said: "I wish grandpa well." ”

Zhu Yan snorted and said, "You will also be a big man in the future, and there are some things that still need to be reminded of you." ”

"You just say. ”

"I don't care how you manage the gang, but there's one thing you need to remember, don't kill people too much. Although this era is an era in which various consortia are in charge, and the voices of government departments are minimal, I still hope that you understand that there is no harm in controlling your desires and thinking more about others. If you were to kill innocents indiscriminately, although I was too old to be useful, I would have personally taken you to the prison to sit down. ”

Although Zhu Yan said it very plainly, like a grandfather telling a story to his grandson, Guan Ke was awe-inspiring, and he heard a hint of threat from it. "Grandpa Zhu, your worries are not unreasonable, but what kind of person I am, everyone I have come into contact with understands. I'm not a good person, but I'm not a bad person either. I won't do anything to kill innocents. I never kill people easily, and I only think about killing people when someone else threatens my life. Guan Ke said with a solemn face.

"I hope you remember what was said today. Zhu Yan still said unhurriedly.

After a brief conversation, silence fell in the car again.

The humidity in the air is deeper, and the sound of waves crashing on the shore is more clearly heard in my ears. The customs guest took a deep breath, and only felt that he could smell the saltiness in the air.

After the taxi continued to drive for more than ten minutes, some vehicles and pedestrians gradually appeared on the road. When the customs officer looked forward, he saw a large shipping port near the coast, and the flat and open space was full of various warehouses, and there were two or three large yellow freight locomotives slowly moving in the meantime, all full of goods.

The sound of waves crashing on the shore is mixed with the sound of busy people talking. Most of the people on the dock were wearing their upper bodies, but even so, they were sweating profusely, wiping the sweat from their foreheads from time to time.

The night was already dark, and yellow lights were lit up all over the harbor. Some moths flew up and down around the glowing light source, even bumping into it with their thin bodies to find out.

"Is this a port in Pingle City?" the customs officer stuck his neck out of the window, curiously watching the people on the port work. He had never been to such a place before, and the first time he saw such a busy scene, it was inevitable that he would feel a sense of novelty.

Zhu Yan lowered the speed of the car again, and slowly turned into a small road leading to the port. Pedestrians on the road stepped aside after hearing a few horns and looked at the taxi curiously. "Yes, although it is not the largest port in Pingle City, and it is not too famous, it has the highest daily traffic volume. ”

The customs guest glanced around, as if looking for something. He didn't look long before he noticed a huge ship docked to the right of the harbor. In the starlight, the ship glowed with a faint white light. Guan Ke guessed that Li Yi was afraid that he would get on that ship and go overseas after a while.

The taxi had just slowly stopped in the parking space, and Li Yi woke up immediately. He stretched back a big slump, felt the breeze of the sea, and couldn't help but sigh comfortably.

Guan Ke hurriedly got out of the car, went around to the other side and opened the car door for Mr. Li.

Li Yi slowly got out of the car and walked straight towards the big ship that Guan Ke had noticed.

It turned out that this port not only transports goods, but also people. On the surface, the port's reputation to the outside world is under the banner of transportation, but this is actually only one aspect of its function.

As they approached, they could see a row of men in black standing on top of the ship, all standing with their hands behind their backs. On the harbor below the big ship, there was also a row of men in black, with their waists straight, their waists bulging, and their hands crossed behind their backs.

When there was still a distance of more than a dozen paces, I saw the people on and off the boat, bowing down and saluting without words, although the movements were not uniform, but they were also neat.

Li Yi nodded wordlessly, and the people in black all stood up with their heads held high.

Li Yi stood at the staircase of the ship, turned around and said, "Xiaomeng, don't follow me anymore, from now on, the object you want to protect is no longer me, but the new leader of the Honggang Gang, Guan Ke." ”

Xiao Meng, who had never opened her mouth along the way, had no sorrow at this time, and still said very coldly: "Not from now on, but only six months." ”

Li Yi looked at her appearance, sighed, and said, "Okay, six months is six months, and half a year is enough." He glanced at everyone and continued: "Send you a thousand miles, and there will be a farewell. I won't say anything more about it, and everyone will naturally be able to get together again when they want to. With that, he wanted to go up the stairs.

When the customs passenger got out of the car, he felt as if he had to ask for instructions, but he couldn't remember it for a while. At this time, when Old Man Li was about to get on the boat and leave, he finally remembered what he had forgotten. "What should those who rebelled against you do?"

When Li Yi heard this, he stopped boarding the ship. He thought about it for a while without looking back, and said, "Let's spare their lives for the time being!" After speaking, he walked up without looking back.

Under the protection of the two men in black, the old man slowly walked into the cabin. In the darkness, two or three dim oil lamps suddenly lit up in the bow and stern, swaying slightly in the damp sea breeze. The swaying lights of the sea make the water surface sparkling, and the starlight reflects each other, making people feel the beauty and tranquility of the scenery.

The ship trembled slightly with a violent roar. The sound of the engine grew louder and louder, and the huge sea ship began to move slowly. It slowly sailed away from the harbor along the sparkling sea.

A particularly beautiful, but somewhat stiff lady, a particularly ordinary, only somewhat handsome young man, and an old man with most of his white hair, stood quietly on the edge of the harbor near the coast, silently watching the ship get farther and farther away, and finally turned into a blurred black shadow and disappeared into the sky.

Perhaps people have long been accustomed to this scene, so the busy dock people did not look at the departure of the sea ship on the right. The shouting continued, the rhubarb locomotive kept humming, and the transport ships in the harbor were also coming and going, coming and going, a busy scene.

Zhu Yan looked at the sky, where there was no trace of the big ship, and said, "Guan Ke, in the future, you will be the sky above the head of Pingle City." Your every move affects thousands of families like wind and rain, so think about it every time you make a decision. Think about the positives, think about the negatives, and think about it from all the other angles, so that it is possible to make your original intention not deviate. ”

Guan Ke listened with sincerity on his face, and looked like everything you said was right: "Your words Guan Ke will keep it in mind, and I will definitely think about it before making a decision in the future." ”

"Don't nag me. Every decision made by the superior is very important. If the person in power himself is unable to realize the importance of his own decision, it is easy to provoke resistance and collapse. Giving orders casually without considering the consequences will do no good to others or to oneself. All in all, think twice. ”
