Chapter 429: Blackmail
Ge Dayong originally wanted to talk to Zheng Hongtao tactfully, and then mention the matter of asking for money, but now Ge Eryong couldn't hold it back, Ge Dayong knew his brother's temper, since Ge Eryong was energetic, he couldn't persuade him, so he had to let it go.
"What rules, what rules?" Zheng Hongtao still had that unmoving expression, and asked in a light tone.
"Money!" Ge Eryong said a little anxiously, "Zheng Hongtao, our two brothers blocked those merchants who came to smash your farm for you, and now they have to negotiate for you, you don't even have a point? Don't say you don't understand!"
"Hehe, it turned out to be asking for money. Zheng Hongtao smiled brightly, "Why didn't you say it earlier? Just now you kept saying that we were friends, and I thought you were helping out of friendship." ”
"Okay! Okay! Don't talk about those useless things!" Ge Eryong completely tore off the fig leaf and shouted impatiently, "I'll tell you the truth, the two of us came here today just to ask for money!" Zheng Hongtao, I'm not afraid to tell you, if you don't give money today, we will bring those merchants to smash your farm, believe it or not?"
Zheng Hongtao thought to himself, saying that Ge Eryong is a good actor, he is really a good actor, and if he turns his face, he doesn't need to be excessive, just this acting skills, I'm afraid it is difficult for those movie theater students to learn even if they waste their old noses.
"Okay, then you can tell me how much it costs. Zheng Hongtao asked again.
Ge Eryong looked at Ge Dayong again at this time, he was still a little unsure about how much it would cost, and he had to let the eldest brother decide.
Seeing that the words had been completely spoken, Ge Dayong naturally no longer had any scruples, so he stretched out two fingers at Zheng Hongtao.
"Twenty thousand?" Zheng Hongtao asked.
"Hehe, that's the price of the last time. Ge Dayong said with a lewd smile on his face, "Hong Tao, this time is bigger than the last time, and you are much more developed than the last time, this price, naturally you have to mention it!
Zheng Hongtao laughed, seemed to be very happy, and asked, "Dayong, are you serious? As long as I give you 200,000 yuan, you will guarantee that those merchants will not come to make trouble?"
Ge Dayong proposed to ask for 200,000 yuan, which was originally just a false shot, he thought that Zheng Hongtao would never agree to this number, so after some bargaining, if he could get 100,000 yuan, it would be considered a success!
But he didn't expect that Zheng Hongtao didn't seem to have any intention of bargaining, and he agreed to this number at once, which made Ge Dayong and Ge Eryong overjoyed, and at the same time, they also felt that Zheng Hongtao was really afraid of them!
Ge Dayong was afraid that Zheng Hongtao would change his mind, so he immediately patted his chest and said: "Hongtao, don't worry, as long as you give our brothers 200,000 yuan, we will absolutely guarantee that those merchants will not come here to make trouble! If something goes wrong, you will pull off the heads of our brothers and kick them as balls!"
Zheng Hongtao smiled: "Okay, then it's decided." ”
Ge Dayong only saw Zheng Hongtao's smile, but he didn't see the cold light flashing in Zheng Hongtao's eyes, and at the same time, he didn't hear what Zheng Hongtao meant when he said "This matter is settled", he thought that Zheng Hongtao agreed to pay the number.
Ge Eryong saw that Zheng Hongtao agreed to their request, and the fierce expression just now immediately disappeared, and his face was immediately full of smiles, and said: "Hongtao, if you had said this earlier, wouldn't it have ended, you have to go around in such a big circle and hurt the feelings of our friends, right?"
"Hehe, you didn't mention it just now. Zheng Hongtao said with a smile.
Ge Eryong didn't talk much about this topic, and asked: "Hong Tao, then you can give us the money now, we will go to work as soon as we take the money." ”
Zheng Hongtao said: "Can't give money today?"
Ge Eryong was stunned for a moment, his face was a little ugly, and he asked, "What do you mean?"
"Oh, don't get me wrong. Zheng Hongtao said politely, "Our finance has been sick and on leave for the past two days, she is not here, our money can't be accounted for, and I can't take it out to you." ”
Ge Eryong glared at Zheng Hongtao and said, "Zheng Hongtao, you won't be playing ...... us"
Ge Dayong waved his hand, interrupted Ge Eryong's words, and asked, "Hong Tao, when will your financial staff come to work?"
"Two days at most. Zheng Hongtao said.
"He's coming to work, and you're going to give us money. ”
"Yes. ”
Ge Dayong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then we'll wait for two days." Hong Tao, you have to talk about it. ”
"Of course. Zheng Hongtao said, "However, Dayong, Eryong, you also have to talk about it." ”
"No problem!" Ge Dayong said, "Hong Tao, you can also go and inquire, we two brothers have always been talkative!"
Ge Eryong seemed to want to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Ge Dayong patted his arm and said, "Okay, Hong Tao, let's have a really happy chat today! Then let's go to work now, and we'll come back to you in two days." ”
"Okay, await. Zheng Hongtao smiled, "Go slowly." ”
……
Just when Ge Dayong and Ge Eryong went to the Green Field Farm and showed off their might to Zheng Hongtao, Wei Laosi, one of the leaders of the Merchant Alliance, was not idle, he drove the van he usually used to buy vegetables to an inconspicuous courtyard in the county seat, and an "old man" with gray hair was waiting for him.
The door of the courtyard was not locked, Wei Laosi took out two bottles of locally produced liquor from the car, picked up a bundle of iron rod yams, and walked directly into the courtyard.
Lying on a recliner in the courtyard, the white-haired "old man" who was feeling the warm winter sun with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes, sat up from the recliner, and said slowly after seeing Wei Laosi: "Fourth, you are here." ”
Wei Laosi put the things he brought by the wall, then walked forward quickly, took out a pack of cigarettes, took out one of them, respectfully handed it to the gray-haired old man, and said with a smile: "Secretary Wei, smoke." ”
A white cloud drifted through the sky, and the warm winter light became brighter and more dazzling, and the gray-haired "old man" slowly raised his head and squinted at the sun, but his eyes shone with a majestic light that did not seem to match his appearance.
This old man with gray hair turned out to be Wei Hailong, the former party secretary of Shuangshan Town!
A few months ago, Wei Hailong lost the power struggle with Gao Kun, and finally fell for illegally blocking Yan Minglei's petition, and also sent someone to break Yan Minglei's leg and other reasons, but in the end, I don't know why, the county leaders opened up to Wei Hailong, did not beat him to death, but only removed him from the post of secretary of the party committee of Shuangshan Town, and demoted him to the punishment of deputy chief clerk.
Although Wei Hailong was not imprisoned, such a result is tantamount to a death sentence for him who has worked hard in his career all his life!
After Wei Hailong learned the result, he immediately had a serious illness and lay in bed for nearly two months before finally getting out of bed, and his original black hair turned gray.
Although Wei Hailong is still a fictitious deputy section-level cadre in Shuangshan Town, he has never gone to work in the unit again.
However, Wei Hailong was not reconciled, he always wanted to do something more.
At this time, an unexpected old friend came to his house, and this old friend was Wei Laosi, the owner of the Wei Family Hotel in Shuangshan Town!
Back then, it was with the support of Wei Hailong that Wei Laosi designated the Wei Hotel as the designated hotel of the Shuangshan Town Government, which made Wei Laosi make a lot of money, and Wei Hailong has always been very grateful to Dade in his heart.
It's just that in the first half of this year, Wei Hailong designated Liu Chun's Liujia Hotel as one of the designated hotels of the Shuangshan Town Government, and every time a big man in the county came over, Wei Hailong would first put the reception in the Liujia Hotel, which also made the Liujia Hotel develop into the best hotel in Shuangshan Town in just a few months, even surpassing the Weijia Hotel!
Because of this incident, Wei Laosi was very angry with Wei Hailong, but since he still wanted to continue to open a restaurant in Shuangshan Town, he would never dare to offend Wei Hailong, so he was still very respectful to Wei Hailong on the surface.
On the night after knowing that Wei Hailong had fallen, Wei Laosi fried two side dishes for himself, and drank a whole bottle of more than 50 degrees of Corolla Daqu by himself, and got drunk.
It's just that what makes Wei Laosi depressed is that Wei Hailong's downfall did not make his voice show the slightest sign of improvement, because the new town party secretary Zhang Yungang is more favored by Liujia Restaurant, and he has been a secretary in Shuangshan Town for a few months, and the number of times he has come to Weijia Restaurant to eat can be counted on one hand.
Although the new mayor Guo Yufeng has a good relationship with Wei Laosi, Guo Yufeng is even more of a sycophant, and follows Zhang Yungang with a heart, since Zhang Yungang likes to eat at Liu's Restaurant, then Guo Yufeng naturally runs to Liu's Restaurant all day long.
And Chen Qingdong, the last powerful among the younger generation of the town government, has a very good relationship with Liu Chun.
Of course, Wei Laosi also admitted that Liu Chun's cooking was really good, especially the specialty dishes were indeed better than him, and the chefs Liu Chunhua invited at a high price were also much higher than the local chef in his store.
In addition, Liu Chun is also a very thoughtful and very good person!
Under the combination of so many factors, Wei Laosi lost convincingly!
This also made Wei Laosi very optimistic about the prospects of his hotel, and in frustration, he thought of changing careers.
However, in Shuangshan Town, a place with a big palm, in addition to opening a restaurant, Wei Laosi really didn't know what to do when he changed careers.
Just when Wei Laosi had a headache for his future outlet, when he was having dinner with a few friends, he occasionally heard from his friends that the most profitable industry now is to do engineering!
Wei Laosi also worked in construction classes when he was young, and there are many private construction classes in Shuangshan Town, so Wei Laosi is no stranger to this industry!
This made Wei Laosi's eyes light up, others can do engineering, why can't I do engineering?!
However, after some inquiry, Wei Laosi learned that although the project is very profitable, the key is to have a way, because not everyone can contract the project, and in addition, the contractor must have money, because the current project is the contractor advances in advance, and Party A pays in installments!
Wei Laosi has worked in the hotel for so many years, and the deposit has already passed one million, so there is no problem in doing a small project by himself, and he can also advance funds, but he can't do it in terms of contacts!
Wei Laosi, who had already identified the intention to do this business, began to inquire about the news everywhere, hoping to know someone who led him into the circle, and then he really inquired about a good news, Wei Hailong, the former party secretary of Shuangshan Town, has a cousin who has done projects in Longwan in the past two years, and it seems that he has done it quite successfully!
If you can do a project in Longwan City, it is naturally better than doing a project in Liulin County!
Wei Laosi is like grasping a straw of hope, in order to be able to get in touch with Wei Hailong's cousin, he first needs to "continue the frontier" with Wei Hailong!
