Chapter 17 The rivers and lakes that have quietly changed

Brother Jiu personally sent the person to talk to Lao Hu is called Mark, this person has followed Wei Laojiu when he first arrived in H City, no one knows where his hometown is, and he is usually not in the company, and even in the gang, only He Wei has met him twice in Zhejiang J, and others have only heard that there is such a person around Brother Jiu, but he has never had any contact.

Mark is 1.82 meters tall, with a straight waist, long thick eyebrows and big eyes, and quite handsome, but he often habitually grows a beard, wears a peaked cap, and squints, so he looks a little old.

……

Three days after Mark finished talking with Brother Jiu, Lao Hu had just come out of the intensive care unit of the hospital, and although the wounds on his body had recovered somewhat, the whole person had lost a lot of weight, and he looked listless.

“…… Don't worry, the kid who stabbed you was caught on the same day, and he was in the detention center. Xiao An was injured and wrapped in gauze, and while eating oranges, he whispered.

"Yes!" Old Hu nodded absentmindedly.

"Di Lingling!"

At this moment, Big Brother's mobile phone rang, and after Xiao An wiped his hands, he personally got up and handed it to Lao Hu.

"Hey, hello, who's that?"

“…… I'm total, you've been hospitalized for four or five days, what's the matter, let's come out and talk about the work of the Shida Night Market?"

"Who are you?" asked Lao Hu with a frown.

"Hehe, you don't know me!"

"I don't know you, I'll talk to you about JB!" scolded the old man.

"You call home and see what your daughter-in-law and children are doing at home!" Mark replied with a smile and hung up the phone.

"Hey, hey?......!" Lao Hu shouted twice, only to find that the other party had hung up.

"Who?" Xiao An took the initiative to ask.

"!" Lao Hu covered his abdomen, gritted his teeth and sat up, and immediately called the landline at home, but it showed that it could not be connected.

"What's wrong?"

"Damn, a B, Lao Jiu plays buried. Lao Hu glared at the beads and scolded.

"Di Lingling!"

The phone rang again, and Lao Hu answered it without hesitation.

"I'll wait for you in the back mountain for an hour, if you don't come, you can do it yourself. Mark dropped the next sentence and hung up the phone again.

……

Forty minutes later, Lao Hu ignored the doctor's dissuasion, led Xiao An and others, and went to the back mountain with two handfuls. After the car stopped, everyone looked up and saw Mark standing with his hands in his pockets next to the sign on the mountainside prohibiting littering.

"Big brother, slow down ......!"

"Get up!" Lao Hu was so anxious that he directly shook off the guy who was holding him, took out the sawed * from his canvas pocket and rushed up.

"Hehe!" Mark wore a peaked cap, his eyes staring at Lao Hu and the others with knives and guns, and a contemptuous smile on his face.

"Fuck you, what are you going to do?" the old man flicked the bolt of his gun, gritted his teeth and shouted at Mark.

"I cut your phone line, but it didn't move. Mark replied with a smile.

Lao Hu was stunned when he heard this.

"But if you can cut the telephone line, you can move people!" Mark stood on the steps, looking at Lao Hu from top to bottom, his body was extremely relaxed.

"You brag B, you dare to touch my wife and children, I will even kill you and Lao Jiu!" Lao Hu put the muzzle of the * gun on Mark's waist with a fierce face.

"I'll arrest your daughter-in-law tomorrow, and you can kill me. Mark replied with a blank face.

"......!" Old Hu heard the sound of his eyes widening, holding the gun in his right hand, and he was a little at a loss for a while.

"Do you dare, dare to shoot?" Mark asked with his right hand, poking Lao Hu's chest, word by word.

Lao Hu's right hand trembled, his fingers were on the cold trigger, and he hesitated several times, but he didn't have the courage to pull it down several times. And Xiao An and the others behind him, facing Mark who had nothing in his hand at the moment, none of them dared to interject, or they were afraid that they would not be able to get off the stage. Because they all knew in their hearts that if Mark really let them shoot themselves, then they must not have the courage to pull the trigger and kill people.

"You don't dare, I dare!" Mark pointed at Lao Hu and whispered again: "If you do it again, I will kill you!!"

Lao Hu looked at Mark, who was relaxed and full of beard, and suddenly remembered that when he entered the detention center because of a fight in 95, he had lived with a bandit who had seven lives in his hands for half a month. And the night before he was executed, he was still in prison playing poker with other inmates to win cigarettes. When he was taken away by the armed police the next day, the expression on his face was as if he was about to be released from prison, he took off his prison uniform with a smile, changed into a set of clean polyester pants, and calmly walked out of the cell.

Yes, the Mark standing in front of him reminded Lao Hu of the death row prisoner, and he also clearly realized that he would definitely collapse in the leg if he took the gun, but the other party might really dare to hit the head with the gun......

"Don't let me look for you again!" Mark paused for two seconds, then reached out and patted Lao Hu's shoulder, and walked down the mountain with a step.

Lao Hu stood on the mountainside, looking at Mark's back, his cheeks cloudy and silent.

……

An hour and a half later.

When Lao Hu returned to the hospital, he saw his daughter-in-law and child, and as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, a captain of the city branch came over and sat for a while in civilian clothes.

The two chatted for less than twenty minutes in total, but they didn't say anything substantive until the captain left, and then suddenly threw a sentence at Lao Hu: "...... You have two or three markets in your hands now, isn't it good to mix well?...... Lao Hu, good things can't all fall on one person, when it's time to let it go, you let it out a little! You fight with Wei Laojiu, and you get injured, then I have to solve the case, but when you fought with others a few years ago, they were also injured, you say, can I solve the case?"

Lao Hu was stunned when he heard this.

"Hehe, take care of it, I'll go first!" the captain smiled, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.

"I know it in my heart!" Lao Hu was silent for a few seconds, and then replied in a low voice while sending it.

"Haha! you're a human spirit, don't say more!" the captain nodded with his hands behind his back.

……

A day later, when the police station where Shen Tianze and Jiang Guangnan were arrested came to the hospital to give Lao Hulu a confession, the other party refused to provide all the information, and completely denied that Jiang Guangnan stabbed him. In this era, the surveillance video has not been fully popularized, the fire in the vegetable warehouse has not been caught, and the people involved in the brawl should have run away, so it is difficult for the police station to sort out any evidence.

Within two days, Shen Tianze and Jiang Guangnan were transferred from criminal to administrative, and each signed a 15-day detention letter. And Brother Jiu didn't do anything desperately, and specially asked He Wei to send a new Santana sedan to Lao Hu.

At this point, Lao Hu completely withdrew from the competition for the night market of Shida, and later when he was drinking, he also said to his friends: "Dude, have you noticed? Now this society has changed, in the past, I relied on knives to fight, but now I rely on fucking money! Lao Jiu is richer than me, stronger than me, and can afford to hire murderers! How can I fight him?"

Yes, when Mark shows up, Brother Jiu is telling Lao Hu that you can't play this social game at all;

98 is a node, while the social environment is advancing rapidly, all walks of life are also being brutally eliminated. The same is true for the bastard circle, they no longer pick up the knife because of a trivial matter, they begin to recognize money, they also learn the way of modern enterprises, use a fast, accurate and ruthless way to collect money, do not fight meaningless battles, do not fight battles without money......

……

After squatting for fifteen days, Shen Tianze walked out of the detention center and returned directly to the Fudu Hotel to meet Brother Jiu.

"Shida Night Market has been taken down, you and Xiao Jiang went over to watch during this time, and when the formalities are completed, you two will stare at it." Brother Jiu crossed Erlang's legs and said with a smile.
