Chapter 9 Networks
Gu Tianyou and Li Mingbo's partnership business not only did not stop, but became bigger and bigger with the secret support of He Weiran. The business scope has expanded to ham sausages, instant noodles, various bagged condiments, and even bagged beer. Although the price is much higher than that outside, the supply is always in short supply.
As the business got bigger and bigger, more and more people participated, including several giants among the prison guard cadres and several main managers of the armed police squadron, and everyone got a piece of the pie. Gu Tianyou's influence in this courtyard is also getting bigger and bigger, from the prison guard cadres to the new and old prisoners, there is no one who doesn't know him and doesn't give him face, this posture seems to be comparable to the Dragon Lord of the day.
However, Gu Tianyou became more and more soberly aware that this was just a false feeling. These people only respect interests, except for He Weiran, each of them wants to get some benefits from themselves. As these people's appetites increased, Xiao En Xiaohui began to be unable to satisfy them, and gradually, Gu Tianyou felt more and more pressure on his body. I finally understood what He Weiran said when she agreed to do this business that day.
"Doing a business is actually to control a circle of interests, if this circle is built with you as the core, if you want to maintain it for a long time, then you have to find a way to make everyone in the circle satisfied, don't make them feel very average, but make them think that they are getting more, because everyone in the circle feels that they are contributing more, but even so, you can't make everyone satisfied, they will want to get more than you after getting more than others, unless you can keep suppressing everyone, do you think you canοΌβ
This is the first paragraph He Weiran said, and he also said another paragraph at that time: "Some truths are not enough, so I give you the opportunity to verify, I want you to prove that you are not the material for doing business, at that time, I hope you can see the world more clearly than now, and at the same time recognize yourself clearly, and find a position that suits you." β
Tianyou asked him at the time, "Why are you so good to me?"
He Weiran sighed and said: "Maybe it's fate, when your mother gave birth to you in prison, I even thought about adopting you at that time, I didn't do it for some objective reasons, and then I handed you over to Lord Long to raise, these years, I watched you grow up day by day, whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, you finally have a place in this place, I am sincerely happy for you, I am about to take a back seat, before leaving, I hope to see you physically and mentally healthy to leave here and enter the society." β
"Do you remember what kind of person my mom was?"
"She's very good-looking, she has a strong personality, she's very strong, and you don't just look like her, but you also have a similar personality. β
"Do you have anything to say to me when she's gone?"
"No, she was very sick when she left, but I remember talking to you a lot when she was alive. β
"Do you remember what she said?"
"She wants you to grow up not to have the same fate as her, and once I heard her say to you, I hope you grow up to wear a big cap. He Weiran paused when she said this, and said, "I think she wants you to be an upright person." β
Time flies, and four months have passed since the last time He Weiran visited, and it is the end of the lunar year of the year. After this year, He Weiran is about to retire, and if he wants to give up this business, he must make a decision before he retires.
Gu Tianyou was still a little hesitant, this determination was really not easy for a young man who was less than fourteen years old and had a business with an annual profit of hundreds of thousands.
Recently, Liu Heimian will come over from time to time, and the two military and political bigwigs on the side of the armed police squadron have also come a few times if they have nothing to do. Without exception, they came for this business.
It's no wonder they're thinking that even a fool can see how easy it is to do this business. In a closed environment, thousands of hungry and thirsty people are detained, and under the absolute monopoly business model, the price of a pack of cigarettes sold for ten yuan outside is three times the price here. Bagged beer is retailed for two dollars a bag outside, and here ten dollars a bag is still in short supply. The fixed consumer group of thousands of people is flowing 20,000 or 30,000 every day.
Although it has been touched to every link, although it has been tried to sell goods in line with the principle of making friends more than doing business. But it still can't stop the deposit in the bank card from increasing every day, and this money is really too hot for Xiao Tianyou. For Wan Baoquan and Liu Heiyan, it is a little too tempting.
Gu Tianyou finally relented and decided to quit the business. So he came to the door and found He Weiran.
As the demolition team leader said before, it doesn't matter what a person does, what matters is to have fun and suit one's ability and temperament. Obviously, for Gu Tianyou, this business is like a train that is about to get out of control, and there is no one in that circle that Tianyou can absolutely suppress, so naturally there is no way to talk about blocking their greed for this business. Now Gu Tianyou has deeply experienced the deep meaning of He Weiran's words that day.
"Determined not to do it?"
"Well, it's too difficult, those people are rushing to win me over, I guess if I continue to do it, I won't have a chance to withdraw. β
"After all, it's a net you've worked so hard to build, don't you think it's a pity to give up if you say give up?"
"To tell the truth, I am a little unwilling, sometimes walking on the road, seeing the cadres who did not hold my eyelids in the past now greet me from afar, my heart is really quite that, and those prisoners, in the past, regarded me as a child, few of them really looked down on me, now, whether it is the prison boss or someone new, anyone who sees me will be polite and give three points, and even some people pin their hopes for commutation and extra points on me. β
"This is the first time I've heard of this. β
"Actually, I've already added points to Lee Myung-bak through Liu Tou. β
"Lao Liu is doing this a bit too much, so I agreed to set up this commissary, on the one hand, to alleviate the hunger of prisoners in the outside world, and at the same time to bring some benefits to comrades, for a prison warden, it is too inappropriate to see it as a way to make money, and even to win you over at the expense of shaking principles. β
He Weiran's expression became serious, and he said righteously: "You go on, tell me who else you used that small circle to help?"
Gu Tianyou thought for a while and said: "Li Mingbo's family is rich, and there are also wealthy among other prisoners, such as Lao Jia, who came in with fake cigarettes, and he will be approved for parole in a few days, and I also helped him operate, looking for an instructor from the armed police squadron, and through the procuratorate he contacted, Lao Jia's verdict was reconsidered and discussed, and then the sentence was changed to probation." β
He Weiran frowned and listened, silently observing Gu Tianyou while listening, and couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and said: "You are integrating the resources of prisoners and management cadres together, eating two ends and helping two ends, I didn't expect that a small decision that day would make you evolve so many messy and complex relationships." Then he asked, "Is there anything else?"
Gu Tianyou thought for a moment, then remembered something worth talking about, and said, "Do you remember that there was a person surnamed Meng named Meng Fanfang who came to the West Supervision District three months ago?"
"Remember, the case on this person's back is not small, and the sentence is indefinite. β
"In fact, he escaped a life, as far as I know, someone outside is fishing for him, this old Meng is a big addict to smoking, not long after he came to find me to set a close, I suspect that he committed a case of lack of morality, at first ignore him, and then he let the nephew of the family outside find the squadron leader, I had to perfunctory him a few times, as a result, once he proposed to make a friend with me, he said that he knew that he couldn't get out, he just wanted to live more comfortably in it, and he also wanted to be the running boss in the West Prison District, a person who can say it, I can be sure that this person has a big case on his back, and he is enough to shoot targets when he says itγ β
"How did you come to this conclusion?"
"Once, when I brought him a beer at night, he said he would leave me with a little bit to drink it for my safety. β
"Your face is really not small, I heard that the prison guard cadres and armed police checked the number at night and saw you turn around and leave?"
"It's all, they'll ask me to get something when they see me. Gu Tianyou continued on the topic just now: "At that time, I stayed with him for a while, and then he may have been happy, and he said a word in my ear, he said that brother, I was not an ordinary person outside, there were more than 300 crutches under my hands, and a single transaction of hundreds of thousands of dollars was done every day, if anyone in your family was sick and needed to change an organ or something, come to my brother, I have a way 616161616161 Well, that's it." β
Abductors, hundreds of thousands of transactions, organ exchanges, several keywords are linked together, and it feels terrible to think about it.
He Weiran stared at Gu Tianyou: "What do you think?"
"What can I think, I won't report this to you, but if you ask my opinion, I still suggest that you stabilize him first, this old Meng is a special thief, the average old Jianghu can't compare, he was sentenced to indefinitely, saying too much will only go further, this person has no way out, and the experience of counter-reconnaissance is so rich, it must be difficult to get something out of his mouth, if you are in a hurry, once you startle the snake, then it will be completely useless." β
"I really didn't expect you to see it quite deeply at a young age, I see that you are not a business material, but a good material for a policeman. He Weiran smiled and said, "This situation is very important, I will report it to the superiors, it seems that you don't only have negative effects." β
"It doesn't matter what the role is, you will retire in the New Year, and I guess it's time for me to leave. Gu Tianyou's expression was gloomy, and he sighed: "If it weren't for your support, I might not have been able to do this business for a long time, so I plan to give up this business while you haven't quit." β
"Let it out, let it to whom?" He Weiran smiled and said, "You haven't considered taking a step back and opening up the sky?" Have a good talk with them, divide everyone's benefits clearly, let them contain each other, and then find another prisoner to do this instead of you after forming a balance, do you think it would be better to deal with it this way?"
"You haven't thought about closing the deal?"
"The business itself is no problem, the police are a chore, the prison police are even more bitter and poor, the brothers are not easy, it is more convenient to improve the efficiency of management by making some welfare, not to mention that I am already a person who is about to retire, even if I do this, it can only be temporarily closed, they have tasted the sweetness, and they will continue to do it in a short time, since this is the case, why should I do this Zhu Bajie look in the mirror, and in the end it is useless?"
"Okay, I understand, I'll hand over this job to Lee Myung-bak, and I'll go back and talk to Liu Tou and the squadron leader about it.
