Li Feng knew that this was reserved for himself, whether it was a Hongmen banquet or not.

He walked to the vacant seat, didn't sit down, picked up the wine jug and poured the wine, saluted Zhou Peng with the wine glass in both hands, and tilted his head to dry. The wine was so fragrant but so spicy that he almost coughed it out, and his stomach burned like a fire, and it kept going up, and it burned so much that his face was red.

The people of the White Tiger Gang stopped eating and drinking, and they all looked up and stared at him.

Li Feng said directly to Zhou Peng: "Helper, my people have come, if there is anything you order, I can do it." If you can't do it, you can leave anything on me. ”

Zhou Peng laughed and stood up and said: "Refreshing, refreshing, I can't imagine a businessman who is so straightforward and a guy who is so bold, I admire." There's nothing else to do today, it's just to ask you to drink. Come, you sit down. Brothers, we salute this Guan Yunchang, who went to the meeting alone. ”

Others poured wine for Li Feng, and Li Feng said: "Thank you for the helper's past is not to blame, I will do it first as a respect." He threw his neck up and drank the wine.

Zhou Peng said: "Okay, the brothers have done it too." "Cheers take the lead.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Peng pointed at Li Feng and said: "The day before yesterday, my brother told me that he had touched a nail, and I thought I had met some three-headed and six-armed hero, but I didn't expect it to be a milky kid." Except for you, other shops will pay the protection fee without discounting, and you will be counted as a kind. ”

Li Feng put down his chopsticks and said, "If they were like me, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to put away." ”

"Yes, it's a bit of a hassle, but that's not going to happen. I mix in the rivers and lakes, not only by hard fists, but also by this head. Zhou Peng pointed to his head and said: "Look at your shops, you are making your own calculations all day long, I wish others would suffer, you can do more in your own business, who will unite to resist us." As soon as we got out of the horse, we had to obediently bring up the money, and no one dared to say anything. You're an outlier. ”

Li Feng didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, so he said: "This time there are so many charges, and you haven't ventilated in advance, are you in trouble?"

Zhou Peng patted the table and said: "I think I have vision, you kid not only has a kind, but also a brain, and you can guess it at once." Since I invite you to drink, I will not treat you as an outsider, and I will tell you the ins and outs of the matter. ”

It turns out that the jurisdiction of the White Tiger Gang is two docks, as well as the surrounding shops, which is not big compared to other gangs in Shanghai. The dock workers in the gang usually move goods, and when something happens, they go out to fight, these people are not small, but they are not fierce enough.

And there are also some idle people who are willing to fight, but they usually lack exercise, and they are unable to fight for a long time. Moreover, this group of people also has a lot of expenses, and the gang income spends a lot on them, and the dock workers have opinions. In general, there is no internal unity, and the combat effectiveness is not strong.

This time, one of the docks of the White Tiger Gang is taken by the Axe Gang and asks them to let it out. At the beginning, the White Tiger Gang killed several brothers in order to grab this dock, how could they give it up with a word, so the two gangs did it. The White Tiger Gang is weaker than the Axe Gang, and can only rely on the surrounding environment to familiarize themselves with the Axe Gang. After several battles, he was defeated, three brothers were hacked to death, twenty or thirty wounded, and the dock was not saved.

The gang had to settle the families of the dead brothers and pay the medical expenses of the injured brothers, and the savings in the gang were quickly exhausted, and they had to overcharge the protection money to maintain the expenses.

After listening to this, Li Feng said: "Then you gather the bosses to explain clearly, and they will also support it, and even have more." ”

Zhou Peng smiled and said, "Then you look a little tender." Businessmen will never give money that is not beneficial to themselves, and it is useless for you to explain it to them. The main thing is that they must not be made aware of this. You think, we can't even protect ourselves, and we still charge them protection money, if they know who will pay the fee!"

Li Feng thought about it, and Zhou Peng continued: "Do you know why I invited you to drink today?"

Li Feng thought: It is impossible to apologize, and it is even more impossible to repay the money, he was still shouting poor just now. I am not familiar with righteousness, do you want me to join the White Tiger Gang? Thinking of this, he looked up at Zhou Peng suddenly.

Zhou Peng also stared at Li Feng, his face became serious and said, "You are very smart, you should have thought of the reason." Let's make it clear, I'm trying to pull you into the gang. That day, I listened to the report of my brothers, saying that you beat four by one, which shows that you are brave and loyal to the owner, and it also shows that you can fight. This aroused my curiosity, so the next day I personally went to your shop, you and I was not afraid, organized, bargained with me, and even played a trick, only 80 yuan. ”

"I'll do what I want, and I want you to do things for me, to see if you have the courage. You can hide from the limelight, but come alone, which shows that you keep your word. Although you are not very old, your words and deeds are very accessible. I think highly of you. ”

Li Feng didn't expect him to test himself, let alone that he had such a good impression in his heart. But joining the gang like this is not his goal.

Zhou Peng saw that he didn't react, and then said, "It's okay if you don't want to join my gang now." I will wait for you. I came here at the beach when I was thirteen, and now I'm twenty-three, a full decade. When I first arrived, I was single and weak, and I didn't know how much I was oppressed, so I gritted my teeth and endured it. Later, when I became stronger, I fought against the person who always bullied me, but I couldn't beat him again, and just like that, that person was afraid of me. ”

"I gained a reputation on the docks, so I gathered everyone to fight against the White Tiger Gang, who bullied us, and in the end, I became the leader of the White Tiger Gang. Therefore, a person must dare to work hard in order to win the respect of others, have money power that others do not have, and protect the people you want to protect. ”

Shen Suzhen heard the bell at ten o'clock, why didn't she come back so late. She got dressed and went to the door of her daughter's room, knocked softly and said, "Yingying, have you slept?"

How could Zhao Yingdi sleep at this time, she asked her mother to come in. Shen Suzhen said: "Yingying, where did Li Feng go? Are you hiding it from me?"

Zhao Yingdi was silent, and Shen Suzhen's tone was a little heavy: "If you hide it from me, something will really happen, and it's too late to regret it." ”

Zhao Yingdi reached out and hugged her neck and cried. Shen Suzhen sensed the seriousness of the situation and asked her to tell the story. Zhao Yingdi cried and told the story as it was.
