Chapter 273: The Dark Side
Noon, around one o'clock.
Li Qifu returned to the Li family again, but looking at the empty house where only Zhou Quan, Jun Wanxi and the old dog were left, he was not very embarrassed in his heart.
It's only been one day, so much has happened, and the most important thing is. These seeds cultivated in the past left so decisively when the Li family was in danger.
Obviously, a day ago, the Li family was still lively, full of people, full of vitality, and everyone was constantly working hard to make the family better.
And this time, I finally knew what these people were thinking, and years of cultivation were in vain, but the gain was to know that these people were all white-eyed wolves who couldn't be raised, and they were not trustworthy at all.
It's okay for the servants to leave, after all, they are just ordinary people, and the first thing they think of when they encounter problems is their own safety, which is understandable.
However, those relatives who were cultivated as seeds disappeared without a trace one by one, as if they had never appeared, so ruthless and ruthless, it really made him feel a little chilled as the head of the family.
"Father is fine, the family will be better in the future, those who abandoned us at a critical moment, let them regret it. Li Ning looked at his father's very lonely back, and couldn't help but comfort him.
"Sure enough, the only people who can be relied on are their own people. Your uncle is injured, isn't he? I'll go inside and see him!" Li Qifu was an adult after all, so he quickly calmed down, and then walked towards the inner courtyard.
"Although my father has the means to the sky, he is still a shortcoming in terms of managing talents. If you want to unite these people and be obedient, it's not just a favor that can satisfy these guys. Li Ning looked at his father's back as he slowly left, and then withdrew his gaze.
Why when things happen, although some people will leave, most people will still choose to stay in the boxing gang.
The most important point is that the boxing gang does not belong to one person, but many people.
In other words, the boxing gang is a boat, and if something capsizes, it will not be one or two people who will die, but a large group of people.
Resources seem to be given to these people for free, but in fact, they are stuck deeper and deeper into the quagmire from which they cannot extricate themselves. Only in this way can the majority of people unite and form a force.
As the old saying goes.
Beat a stick and give a sweet date.
Envy and grace.
in the long run.
"Helper. Zhou Zhimiao ran forward quickly.
"What's wrong?" Li Ning looked back at him.
"Someone wants to see you. Zhou Zhimiao said in a low voice.
"Who?" Li Ning saw him so cautious.
"The people who helped us. Zhou Zhimiao pondered the wording and replied.
"Where are the helpers?" Li Ning was stunned for a moment and then remembered what his father had said, about those people on the dark side of Yanyang City, and immediately nodded thoughtfully.
"Just outside the door, see or not see?" Zhou Zhimiao turned sideways and pointed to the open vermilion gate in the distance.
Sure enough, there were a few people standing on the steps of the doorway, men and women, old and young. Moreover, they all gave Li Ning a feeling that he had never seen before, but his face was familiar.
"Let them in. Li Ning thought for a moment.
"Okay. Zhou Zhimiao turned around and beckoned to these people, signaling that they could come in.
Da Da Da –
The sound of light footsteps repeatedly.
Soon, five people stepped forward.
Three men and two women.
Stand side by side from left to right.
"Do you have anything to do with me?" Li Ning's eyes swept over his eyes, constantly looking at these people, and then asked.
Before we answer that question, let's introduce each of them. On the far left, a woman who looked like a plump woman was the first to speak, her voice gentle.
"Okay. Li Ning's eyes locked on her.
"The slave's name is Chen Guimei, and she is the chief steward of the local big red boat, in other words, Sister Yan has to call me mother. Chen Guimei raised her left hand, her eyes and mouth chuckled, and her phoenix eyes flashed with a moving aura, like a hook, which could firmly grasp people's eyes.
She was dressed in a lady's red satin, and a gray shaggy robe was draped over it, and her figure was plump, but it did not give a greasy feeling, but it was just right.
Especially in front of the chest, there is a long and narrow valley, which makes people wonder what the deepest part of this valley looks like.
"Chen Guimei, the chief steward of the big red boat, Okay, I remember, next one!" Li Ning moved his gaze to the right after looking at it, and landed on the other woman.
She is younger than Chen Guimei.
Tall, with a pure face, without much makeup, whether dressed or dressed, it gives people a very capable feeling.
Although it was winter, everyone else wore heavy clothes and even a long robe, but she was different. Wearing a close-fitting black practice uniform.
The eyebrows are full of heroism.
Although there is no Chen Guimei's huge body on the chest.
But it's not small, like two big steamed buns.
Prop up the black practice uniform bulgingly.
"My name is Zhang Fei, and I am the representative of the hundred guards of Yanyang City, and I have met the gang leader. Zhang Fei stepped forward slightly, and after a brief self-introduction, he retreated again.
Hundred convoys?
Li Ning had the impression that this seemed to be to resist the oppression of the rich area, so a special escort team was formed in the civilian area to take over the business of all kinds of ordinary people.
But because of the appearance of Shuntuan, business has been getting worse and worse recently, and even many people choose to leave them to join Shuntuan because his welfare is better.
Zhou Zhimiao specifically mentioned it once.
The rest were three men.
A rickety old man in his fifties and sixties wearing a hat.
A middle-aged man blinded in animal skin.
There was also a simple young man in his early twenties.
Three people, as if three different stages.
It gives the illusion that time has flown by.
"The old man's name is Song Chun, but others give me a title, call me Sugar Man Song, and now I am the person in charge of the street, Hello Gang Master Li. "Song Chun is the old man who blows candy on the side of the road.
"Song Chun, what is the relationship between Song Chui and you?" Li Ning couldn't help but ask when he thought of the similar names of the two.
"This is my brother, hehe!" Song Chun grinned, revealing slightly yellowed teeth, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
Uh-
Li Ning was stunned.
Song Chun is the mayor of Yanfei Town, he eats and drinks spicy food, and now he is raised by the boxing gang, so he doesn't worry about eating and drinking at all. I didn't expect his brother to be so down-and-out, an old man who blows candy.
That's a bit of a contrast.
"What about you?" Li Ning then looked at the middle-aged man who was wearing a fur coat and had a very burly figure, this person also made a deep impression on him, and he was also one of the people on the street last night.
"In Xia Chendong, he is the head of the merchants in the civilian area, specializing in selling the skins of some animals, and often goes into the mountains. Chen Dong stepped forward, clenched his hands into fists, his eyes were very firm, without any fluctuations, as if it was not a fragile eyeball, but two iron balls.
He was always filled with a strong aura of a beast, as if he was not a human, but a beast in human skin, which made people very uncomfortable.
Li Ning bowed slightly, and then his gaze fell on the young man who had been standing still and was very silent. This person's sense of presence is the lowest, and his eyes are very empty from beginning to end, as if he is wandering.
"Hey. Zhou Zhimiao couldn't help but remind.
"Well, my name is Chasing Long, and I am the representative of the younger generation of martial artists in Pingming District, replacing Brother Lin Dong. The young man came back to his senses and quickly replied.
The five of them were finally introduced.
Li Ning retracted his gaze and narrowed his eyes slightly.
One is the chief steward of the big red ship.
One is a representative of the Hundred Guards.
One is the person in charge of the street.
One is the head of the merchants.
One is a representative of young warriors.
Everyone's identity is not simple, which almost represents the core of the entire civilian area. These people, including the people behind these people, should be what my father called the dark side.
They are rooted at the lowest level of Yanyang City.
Like maggots on tarsal bones.
The energy contained is not much worse than that of the rich.
And this time it really helped me.
"Helper?" Zhou Zhimiao shouted softly.
"Where has Lin Dong gone?" Li Ning realized that he hadn't seen this product for a long time.
"On behalf of our boxing gang, he went to another city to promote the Shun group, almost ten days, and it is estimated that it will be next month when he comes back. Zhou Zhimiao hurriedly said.
"Do you have anything to do with me?" Li Ning heard this, and then swept his gaze over the five people one by one again.
"Gang Master Li, this time you can enter the City Lord's Mansion, we people also have some pay, there is no merit and hard work. Chen Guimei said with a smile.
"yes. Last night, the street was almost all of us. This is the first time since the construction of Yanyang City that all efforts have been made. Song Chun nodded in agreement.
"Then what do you want? If I'm not mistaken, except for the big red boat and Chen Dong and the hundred guards, it seems that the rest of the people have already joined the boxing gang. Li Ning continued to ask.
"That's true, but you must have gained a lot from your night in the City Lord's Mansion. We waited outside all night, and we had to get something in return. Chen Guimei nodded.
"In other words, if you eat meat, we people have to drink some soup. Song Chun continued.
"I see what you mean. I can give you a little bit of something, but I need you to think about one thing. Li Ning stepped forward.
"What's the matter?"
"Do you have any other commands?"
"Anything else?"
All five of them were curious.
One by one, they looked at him seriously.
"It's okay to ask for something, but only if you join the boxing gang. What I get will only be shared with the people of the boxing gang, as for outsiders, I'm sorry, it's just a white-eyed wolf that can't be raised. Li Ning glanced at the five people, and his tone was very cold.
"It's... What do you mean?" Chen Guimei was originally smiling, but when she heard these words, her face suddenly sank.
"I'll admit that you did this extra last night to take a little bit of pressure off me, but in fact, even if you don't do it, I'll take care of these killers myself. Li Ning sneered.
These people may have misunderstood.
He asked Zhou Zhimiao to find them.
It's not like I'm out to help me with some kind of attack or something.
Unless he was a master above the Jade Lock Six Heavens, he didn't care at all.
All they have to do is stabilize the situation.
Of course, since they themselves thought wrong, and then they were willing to make a move, of course he would be happy to see it. It's time to see what these people do.
And.
He just promised the bookstore to become a library.
I didn't say that the meat in my mouth was still divided.
Cheng Guimei, Song Chun, and Zhang Fei's faces sank.
