Chapter 199: Taxi Driver
"Big brother, what do you mean by that?" Huang Fei was confused by this driver.
"It seems that not only are you not a local, but you must have just arrived, and you don't even know what is going on here, so you are going to that place?" said the driver's face was exaggerated, as if he was looking at a madman.
"It's not big brother, you confuse me by talking like this, you are from that place and that place, what kind of place is that?" Huang Fei was even more confused, could this driver be mentally ill?
"Brother, listen to me, if there is nothing important, don't go, I don't want you to pay for this car, you get out of the car. The driver shook his head, sighed, and wanted to catch Huang Fei out of the car.
Huang Fei really gained knowledge, and for the first time he met a taxi driver who didn't pull a job, got off the remote sensing guest, and didn't even want money. Looking at the panicked look on the driver's face, Huang Fei's eyes rolled and he thought about it: "Big brother, I did just come to the South China Sea, but I did have something to do there, in this way, I will add a hundred to the car money, you tell me what's wrong with that place?"
It is said that money can make ghosts grind, this is not true at all, the driver heard that Huang Fei wanted to add money, hesitated for a moment, and drove the car forward.
"Brother, it's not that I'm greedy for your 100 yuan, I'm worried about you, you don't know anything and go to that place, I'm afraid that something will happen to you." The driver said to Huang Fei earnestly.
"What the hell is going on in that place? I think you look scared, big brother. "Huang Fei is really strange, what kind of place did Murong Xianglong let himself get?
"Brother, do you know what that place is for?" the driver hesitated for a moment and asked Huang Fei.
"I don't know, someone else gave me an address and told me to go there. Huang Fei shook his head blankly, looking at the driver like this, what kind of place is that?
"That's the docks. These words were uttered almost by the driver in a crying voice.
"Oh, scare me, isn't it the dock, I thought it was somewhere?" Huang Fei breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this driver was a little sensitive to him.
"Isn't it the dock, brother, you really dare to say this, do you know who the owner of this dock is?" The driver looked at Huang Fei with an idiot on his face, still too young and frivolous.
"I don't know. Huang Fei shook his head, but he knew that every dock was controlled by some forces, and the family member mentioned by the driver was probably the boss of the dock.
"There is only one boat gang at the dock of our South China Sea, and the leading brother of the boat gang, known as Brother Bei, is a figure calling for wind and rain in the South China Sea, and he is a person who no one offends. When the driver said this. I couldn't help but have a look of awe on my face.
Brother Bei? Huang Fei was stunned for a moment, looking at the driver's appearance, this person should be a very famous person, but why haven't he heard of it? Is it because he is too lonely and unheard?
"Our wharf in the South China Sea is the largest trade wharf in the country, and 80% of the country's import and export goods pass through this wharf. Like an expert, the driver began to tell Huang Fei how powerful the docks in the South China Sea were.
After listening for a long time, Huang Fei finally understood, after a long time, it turned out that the most actual controller of the largest commercial wharf in the South China Sea was the boat gang under the command of Brother Bei, although this boat gang had no legitimacy, but it was true that the real dictator of the wharf, and even the government could not interfere with them.
Since it is a gang organization, it will naturally have their so-called rules, take a taxi as an example, every taxi entering and leaving the dock must pay 200 yuan of happy money, 200 in and 200 out, this is already an unwritten rule.
It's very simple, drag the driver out of the car and beat him up, and then smash the car, if you meet those hard-mouthed drivers, you will directly throw the car into the sea with people, whether you can or come back depends on his creation.
No wonder the driver opened his mouth and asked himself for a fare of 500 yuan, it turned out that there was such a reason in it, back and forth, out of the gas money, the driver can earn dozens of yuan, which is considered a spiritual comfort.
Therefore, the taxi drivers in the South China Sea are reluctant to come to the wharf, and every time they come back, it is like a tragedy, and their hearts are beating.
Pumping money on taxi drivers, a car is four hundred, and this is just a small number, the real big head is those cargo ships.
The ship's gang has a rule that no matter whether it is entering or leaving the cargo ship, it must pay a 20% protection fee according to the value of the goods on board, which is the same for each ship, and the ship's gang has a special appraiser to value the goods on board.
If it is not delivered, it is very simple, it is likely that overnight the cargo on the ship will be lost by half, or there will be a fire, and even the shipwreck will happen.
Huang Fei knew about the boat gang charging protection fees to the ships coming and going, and there was such a situation at any wharf, but he would charge 20% at once, which was also a bit too ruthless, and the sauce was a clear robbery.
"Then those ships won't stop going to this dock?" "I can't afford to provoke it, but I can afford to hide, it's a big deal if I don't leave your dock, it's over."
"Where are there docks near the South China Sea? Where can these ships go around? If they are close, the cost will be higher if they are far away, and there are some large ships, and the water level of other docks is too shallow, so there is no way to dock at all, so the shipowners have to knock out their front teeth and swallow them in their stomachs. The driver's tone was also quite sympathetic to the owners.
"This boat gang is so arrogant, doesn't the government take care of it?" Huang Fei didn't understand, the wharf originally belonged to the state, and it was illegal to be controlled by private individuals.
"It's not that I haven't taken care of it, but what can I do? Besides, who are the people in the boat gang, they are all workers on the dock, forcing the boat gang, Beige gave an order, all the workers are on strike, this wharf goes in and out every day, there are so many ships in and out of this wharf every day, there is no worker loading and unloading manipulation, it will not take a day, this wharf will be paralyzed, so there is no way, the government can only turn a blind eye to what the boat gang does, and everyone will be safe and safe. "The driver also looked quite helpless.
"But the benefits of the boat gang should not be in vain. Huang Fei thought for a moment and asked again.
"Of course, it is not collected in vain, it is a matter of course to take people's money to eliminate disasters for others, the boat gang has received benefits, of course, to ensure the safety of these cargo ships, as long as the ship enters the dock and pays the money, then there will be absolutely no accident, if something happens, all the losses suffered by the ship owner will be compensated by the ship gang. The driver nodded and said.
"It's a bit of a conscience, and it's disgusting to just collect money and not do anything. "Huang Fei didn't expect that there would be so many things in such a wharf.
"Actually, it's nothing, the whole dock is under the control of the boat gang, what can happen?" the driver shook his head with a wry smile.
"That's right. Huang Fei nodded, agreeing with the driver's point of view.
"Big brother, I didn't expect you to know so much about this dock. "Seeing that a taxi driver knows this boat gang so thoroughly, it seems that this boat gang is really covering the sky in the South China Sea, the South China Sea is a coastal city, and the most important trade and economic hubs are on the sea, and the boat gang can control the dock, which is equivalent to controlling half of the South China Sea.
"Hehe, in fact, my brother won't tell you, I used to be a worker on the docks, and I ate on the boat. The driver said with a smile.
"No wonder, eldest brother knows this so clearly, but why don't you work on the dock, but you rent it out?" Huang Fei is quite strange, it stands to reason that the income on the dock is so high, and the people under them must also earn a lot.
"Actually, working on the dock for a month can top me for several months of rental, but there is no way, I really can't stand the life of fighting and killing all day long, so I quit, being an ordinary person, living this ordinary life is actually very good, guarding the hot kang head of my wife and children every day, don't you say?" the driver smiled as he spoke, his face full of happiness.
Yes, what's the use of asking for so much money, a peaceful and peaceful life is the best, didn't Huang Fei leave the blood wolf in the first place to pursue a quiet and peaceful life? It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people, and he was still caught in this storm.
Looking at the driver, Huang Fei suddenly had a feeling of envy, he lived well, maybe not very rich, but people knew enough, Huang Fei could even imagine what his life was like.
Every day after driving home, his wife has already prepared a meal and waited for him on the table, after eating, teasing the children, the family of three went out for a walk, and then came back, the children went back to the room to do their homework, he accompanied his wife to sit on the sofa and watch TV, listening to his wife talk about what happened in the neighborhood today.
Huang Fei really wanted to live like that, he thought about it, and when he finished his own business, he took Ding Can to a place where no one knew him, and started their new life, starting this kind of monotonous but happy life.
"What's the matter, brother?" the driver couldn't help but ask when he saw that Huang Fei had been in a daze.
"Oh, it's nothing, I see my eldest brother like this, and now this little day must be very comfortable. Huang Fei said with great envy.
"Hey, hey. The driver was Huang Fei said this, and scratched his scalp a little embarrassedly: "In fact, life is lived by people, there are poor and rich, the key depends on what you think, if you know how to be content, then the coarse tea and light rice every day is also happy, if you are not satisfied, then what is the use of big fish and meat every day? ”
"Big brother, I really admire you, in this society now, how many people can think like you? I believe that your future life will be better and better. Huang Fei said sincerely.
"Haha, I'm borrowing you a good word, oh, the dock is almost here. The driver stretched out his hand and pointed ahead.
