86_86324 The corners of Foreman Li's mouth curled, and he said: "Smart people really know a little." ”

"But, I feel that everyone here is very obedient to your arrangement?" I bypassed Foreman Li's flattery and asked him.

"You've said it, that's how you feel," said Foreman Li, leaning back, "You've only been here for half a day." ”

"And what other potential threats are there in this community?" I asked. I said to myself, when I first came here, didn't you say that I would like it here?

"You can say that, and I feel like danger is coming." Foreman Li bowed his head and replied.

I pulled out a cigarette, put it in my mouth and said, "The danger you are talking about is that someone threatens your position." ”

"That's pretty much it."

It wouldn't be surprising if that happened, after all, where there are people, there will be fights. I asked him, "Who is it?" ”

"Liu Wei." Foreman Li raised his head and replied to me bluntly.

I wasn't too surprised to hear the answer, I guessed it was him just now. Today, when he looked at Foreman Li's eyes before going downstairs, something was wrong.

"I heard Master Chen say, isn't there a hierarchy here, why, you, as the boss, can't play this system?" I puffed out my cigarette and said to him in a mocking tone.

Foreman Li tilted his head and smiled, and replied, "Boss? You think I want to be the boss? ”

"Or else?" I asked rhetorically. I don't believe anyone is forcing you to be the head of this group.

"Although the current situation is indeed like this, it is not my original intention, and the rules in Lao Chen's mouth are not set by me." Foreman Li wiped a smile from his face and said to me sternly.

"Including regulations about supermarkets?" I kept asking, "And how did you become this boss?" ”

Foreman Li scratched his hairspray, looked me in the eye and told me the story: "In the beginning, when everyone died, I thought I was the only one left in the world. But the next day, when I walked out of the house, I met Liu Wei. When I saw him, I understood that there must be more than just the two of us alive in this city.

So I decided that I was going to find out all the people in the city who were still alive, and when we got together, we would have a greater hope of holding out until the day when someone came to save us. That afternoon, I drove around the city in my car. On the first day, we only found one person, Lao Chen. Lao Chen told me that this is very inefficient, and many people can't see us in the building at all. So Lao Chen helped us find the hand-held horn, he drove the truck, and I drove mine, roaring while driving in the city. In three days, most of the people who were still alive in the city were recruited by us.

"Later, we came to the community where Liu Wei used to live, which is where we are sitting now, and we cleaned it up, and after moving the dead for two days, everyone moved in."

Hearing this, I took a long puff of my cigarette. If what Foreman Li said was all true, then he could be regarded as a well-wisher and fully qualified to be the leader here.

Foreman Li fanned away the smoke I spit out and continued: "Liu Wei helped me recruit people because he had known me for the longest time. The people who were found came one by one, and no one knew anyone, so they obeyed our arrangement. Over time, Liu Wei became accustomed to losing his temper. When we went out and found the gun, he picked out a few people to be his little brothers and formed a small gang. The people in the community, if they don't do what he says, they will directly be mouths and fists. Except, of course, for me. Lao Chen just couldn't stand his way of doing things and left the community by himself.

"You know, one way to stabilize people's hearts is the power of money, and the other is force. I can't pay my salaries, but at least I can give them a better life than if I were out there alone. It was because everyone was grateful to me that I was where I am now. However, now that Liu Wei has the force, this gratitude is vulnerable. ”

Foreman Li kept grabbing his hair while he was talking, and by the time he stopped talking, the hair on his head was already messy. The messy hair, the tightly knit brows, the bloodshot whites of his eyes, and the elongated shadows under his eyes were completely the same as Foreman Li during the day. I suddenly felt that being the boss was not as refreshing as I imagined.

I took the last puff of my cigarette and asked him, "Then Liu Wei is not grateful to you in his heart?" ”

"Of course, there were, but recently I have had disagreements with him on many issues, and he has held his anger in his heart, and he probably has a grudge against me for a long time." Foreman Li replied, "For example, he strongly requested that he come to arrest you today." I didn't want to come forward, but I was afraid that he would bring someone out to find out and there would be bloodshed, so I had to follow him. ”

"And why did you bring us here?" I walked to the windowsill, opened the window, scraped out the cigarette butt and threw it out.

"If I bring you here, Liu Wei will think that I attach importance to the rules he has set and am trying to find a way to solve them, so as not to get too stiff with him. And, when I saw a few of you, I came up with the idea of asking you to come and help me. Foreman Li unbuttoned his suit and said, "You must also understand that many of my words today are for him." ”

Hearing Foreman Li say these words, I feel that he is now like an emperor with no real power, who learned that the prime minister was going to rebel, but he could not do anything about it, so he could only make concessions everywhere in front of the civil and military officials in order to protect himself.

I recall Foreman Li's eyes looking at us in the crowd and the conversation he had with me in the Audi, and it seemed that he had really planned this a long time ago. I said, "By the way, I haven't asked yet, how do you want us to help you?" ”

"You don't have to do anything, you just need to stay in the community."

"Stay here?"

"Well, stay here, if your power is inserted in the middle, Liu Wei will have a bond in his heart, and he will be able to stabilize him for a while. During this time, I thought about my next plans. ”

"However, I don't think a few of us have any strength at all. You see, the guns have been collected by him, if Liu Wei really wants to take your place, he can easily solve a few of us by the way. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I know Liu Wei's way of doing things, he likes to come step by step. When you get me in trouble, it must be after dealing with it. Foreman Li replied.

"Hmm." I answered.

"Would you like to help me, then?" Foreman Li asked me very sincerely.

I bit my fingernails and replied, "I'll have to go back and ask them." ”

Foreman Li showed a somewhat disappointed expression, but it was only a momentary matter. He suddenly reached out and turned off the lamp. The darkness in front of me made me nervous immediately. Could it be that Foreman Li saw that I didn't agree, and was afraid that I would go to ventilate with Liu Wei, so he would kill me? However, I didn't refuse.

"Well, if you don't agree, it's reasonable." Foreman Li said in the dark, "I just don't want to see this community that has been built up with great difficulty become a gang." ”

I don't know what to answer.

"If your friends don't agree, you can run away by yourself tomorrow, and I will separate Liu Wei and a few of his younger brothers." He continued.

I still don't know what to answer, but I feel a little sorry in my heart. Thinking about it carefully, Foreman Li didn't do anything to hurt us, and he treated us well, but maybe this was just Foreman Li's means to win people's hearts. However, the people in the community, except for Liu Wei, are very good in my opinion. To be honest, if I hadn't come to the community the way I do today, I might have chosen to live here.

Thinking that these good people in the community are about to be managed by Liu Wei's brutality, my heart can't help but ripple. Is it because of the meal that Mama Li cooked for us today, should I also stay and help Foreman Li stabilize the situation?

Of course, this is just what I think in my heart, and the final decision must be discussed with Uncle Wang and them. Seeing that Foreman Li had turned off the lamp, I thought the conversation was over, but he sat in the dark, not moving, not knowing what he was planning. It was only then that I heard the cheers coming from downstairs, and it sounded like they were doing something interesting.

"Lou Li, I haven't asked you yet, what did you do before?" Foreman Li suddenly spoke, opened the drawer under the desk, and felt something inside.

"Student," I replied, "what about you, are you really the foreman?" ”

Foreman Li snorted and replied, "Why, I used to be a businessman. ”

"Oh, it's Manager Li." I joked.

"In the past, I didn't mention it, but now everyone is the same." Foreman Lee closed the drawer, stood up, and walked to the windowsill.

He looked at the dark city outside the window, sighed and said, "You go up first, discuss with your friends, and I will come to you tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." Hearing that I could go back, I couldn't wait to stand up. Just as I was about to go out, Foreman Li stopped me again and handed me something. I reached out and took it, and the cold touch told me that it was a pistol
