Chapter 273: Memorial Service
After living in the Mysterious Mountain Villa for a while, although Huo Xiaotian never spoke, Chen Lao, who was good at detecting people's colors, still saw Huo Xiaotian's thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Xiaotian, if you have anything on your mind, just say it directly, in Grandpa's place, why are you still so outside?" β
Hearing Elder Chen's inquiry, Huo Xiaotian no longer concealed it, groaned slightly, and said, "Grandpa, I did have something to ask you about this time, I don't know if you have ever heard of a person named Lin Lao?" β
"Lin Lao? You say that old god stick who lives in Spring City? Old Chen asked.
"Yes." Huo Xiaotian nodded noncommittally.
"What's wrong? That old god stick is in trouble with you? Old Chen asked again.
"Yes, not long ago, Lin Lao found a person on the road to go to Taishan City to find me, saying that Lin Lao wanted to see me, I was a little uncertain, so I didn't dare to agree rashly, but I heard that Lin Lao is very powerful in our Dongshan Province, and it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that if he hides and stomps his feet, the entire Dongshan Province will also be shaken three times, so I..."
When Huo Xiaotian said this, Old Chen's face immediately became gloomy, "What is he, Lin Tiannan, just a little ruffian hooligan, what contribution does he have to the country, he dares to be so arrogant!" β
Huo Xiaotian saw that Chen Lao was angry, and his expression was a little embarrassed, "Grandpa, don't be angry, I know that a person of his status can't be compared to you at all." β
"What does he compare with me? When Lao Tzu resisted rice and helped the nest, he didn't know where to be a deflated three. Chen Lao said angrily.
"Yes." Huo Xiaotian nodded.
"Okay, grandpa will give you resistance to this matter, you don't have to worry about it, wait for the letter here with peace of mind." Chen Lao patted his thigh and said.
"Oh, thank you, Grandpa." Huo Xiaotian said respectfully, and at the same time, his heart was finally steady, with Chen Lao in charge of himself, a gangster is considered a yarn?
Sure enough, three days later, there was an explosive news in Quancheng, Lin Tiannan, the chairman of the Lin Group, accidentally fell from the sixth floor when he was taking a bath in a sauna center, and fell to his death on the spot, and public opinion was in an uproar for a while.
Although there was no further follow-up report on the news, Huo Xiaotian knew that this matter was definitely done by Chen Lao, and only Chen Lao's subordinates would have such a clean and neat means.
A gangster who has been in Dongshan Province for decades was easily killed by Chen Lao in less than three days, which also made Huo Xiaotian truly experience Chen Lao's energy.
"Okay, don't worry, go back to school, with grandpa here, no one dares to touch you." Chen Lao said with a smile.
With the protection of Chen Lao, Huo Xiaotian was naturally relieved, the reason why he didn't choose to go to the imperial capital was because he had no foundation in the emperor, the imperial capital was the center of power and wealth, I don't know how many guys who were more powerful than Lin Lao hidden there, so people without a foundation wanted to fight the world there, which was tantamount to a fool's dream, so Huo Xiaotian planned to develop himself first under the wing of Chen Lao, and then attack when he had the ability to compete with other forces.
A few days later, Huo Xiaotian returned to Taishan City, and the first thing Liu Shuang did when he saw Huo Xiaotian was to tell Huo Xiaotian the news that Lin Lao had hung up.
However, for this explosive news, Huo Xiaotian's watch was greatly unexpected by Liu Shuang, "Oh, I know." β
Huo Xiaotian nodded, his face did not show much joy, as if this qiΔ was expected.
Liu Shuang was very puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask more, and couldn't help but guess in his heart, the boss went to Quancheng for a few days, and Lin Lao hung up, could it be that Brother Tian did this?
As soon as the thought flashed, Liu Shuang couldn't help but shake his head, Brother Tian is powerful, but no matter how powerful he is, he can't single-handedly make a gangster who has been in Dongshan Province for decades, right? Is it really what the newspapers say? Lin Lao fell from the sixth floor because of a mistake?
"Ah Shuang, order a good wreath for me, and inform the brothers below that on August 23rd, Lin Lao will hold a memorial service, and our bosses above the entrance of the Xiaotian Society will be present to mourn, and no one will be missing." Huo Xiaotian lit a cigarette and said in a foggy manner.
"Huh? Brother Tian, let's go to a memorial service for Lin Lao? Liu Shuang asked a little puzzled, "He sent someone to demonstrate with us a few days ago, he died just right, we are not in a hurry to be happy, what do you want to mourn him?" The cat cries for a mouse? β
"Even if the cat cries the mouse, I have to go, if we want to develop in Quancheng in the future, we must lay a good foundation with the local gangs, Lin Lao is also the number one person in Quancheng, TongguΓ² This memorial service can also let the bigwigs in Quancheng know that at least we have a Xiaotian Society." Huo Xiaotian said.
"Oh, got it." Liu Shuang nodded and retreated.
Two days later, nearly 1,000 people gathered in a square in Quancheng, and in addition to the local associations and gangs in Quancheng, many gangs and associations from other cities also came to attend the memorial service.
Because there were so many people who came to attend the memorial service, it even alarmed the armed police force, and there were hundreds of policemen at the scene to maintain order, so that the scene was not too chaotic.
"I'll go, there are so many people, Lin Lao seems to have good connections on the road." Liu Shuang looked at the people around him and said with a smile.
"Don't be hippie and smiley, pretend to be professional." Huo Xiaotian stared at Liu Shuang and said.
Liu Shuang scratched his head in embarrassment, with an innocent face: "Brother Tian, I really can't cry, Lin Lao is not my father, I am not sad at all now." β
"If you can't cry, wear sunglasses, idiot!" Black Nose took out a pair of wide-brimmed sunglasses from his pocket and handed them to Liu Shuang.
"Rub your uncle, you don't take out your sunglasses earlier." Liu Shuang grinned and touched the sunglasses and put them on, wearing a black suit, black leather shoes, and black eyes, just like an authentic black club.
"Brother Tian, you said that after Elder Lin hangs up, the position of the boss of Quancheng will be vacant, who will be the next boss of Quancheng?" Liu Shuang asked with interest.
Huo Xiaotian paused slightly, looked at the portrait of Lin Lao in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment of deep groaning, he turned his head to look at Liu Shuang: "What do you think?" β
Liu Shuang looked at Huo Xiaotian's sharp eyes, and couldn't help but tremble, and suddenly felt a shudder.
"Nonsense, of course it's Brother Tian." The black nose kicked Liu Shuang and said.
"Rub, don't kick me, new suit!" Liu Shuang patted his trouser leg and said.
"It's not to get your daughter-in-law, rub it!" The black nose scolded with a smile.
On August 23, it was cloudy and there was light rain, and Huo Xiaotian waited in the rain for a while before he came forward to offer flowers.
"Taishan City, Mr. Huo Xiaotian, the boss of the Xiaotian Society, come to mourn!" The host shouted in a loud voice.
Huo Xiaotian strode into the mourning hall, bowed respectfully to the statue of Lin Lao, and when he looked at the statue of Lin Lao again, Huo Xiaotian's heart was mixed, and he sighed that the rivers and lakes were changeable, maybe Lin Lao never thought that he would be a powerful gangster in the rivers and lakes so lightly hanging in the hands of a young man who was not good-looking.
"Old Lin, Old Lin, maybe you don't know how you died, right?" Huo Xiaotian stared at Lin Lao's portrait and thought meaningfully.
And just when Huo Xiaotian was looking at the portrait of Lin Lao, Xu Zongtao suddenly stood up and walked towards Huo Xiaotian.
"Huo Xiaotian, what are you doing?" Xu Zongtao glared at Huo Xiaotian and asked.
"What? Brother Xu, can't I come to give Lin Lao Zhu incense? Huo Xiaotian said calmly.
"Don't think that what you did was seamless, I don't know that you did it, did Lin Lao kill you?" Xu Zongtao stared at Huo Xiaotian's eyes and asked in a low and vicious voice.
"Brother Xu, I don't know what you're talking about, I just heard the news of Lin Lao's death." Huo Xiaotian shrugged his shoulders and said. (To be continued.) )
