Chapter 290: Career in Shanghai
Originally, none of these things had anything to do with Lai Xiaohu, and Lai Xiaohu had always tried his best to avoid having too much to do with those things on the underworld. But the more this is the case, but such things are all bumped into by Lai Xiaohu.
Take Hu Haikun and Gao Hong as examples, both of them think that if they want to gain a foothold in a place like Shanghai, they can't do it without the help of Lai Xiaohu. Because although Lai Xiaohu is not often in Shanghai, and he is not from Shanghai, Lai Xiaohu's relationship in Shanghai is indeed incomparable to others. The two of them fell in love with Lai Xiaohu's relationship in Shanghai, so they had to ask Lai Xiaohu to help in this matter.
And for the local gangs in Shanghai, the same idea is almost the same. Originally, after Song Xin and the others had an accident, these people were torn apart, but when Hu Haikun and Gao Hong entered Shanghai in a high-profile manner, these local people directly felt a sense of crisis. Although Shanghai is big, but the real living space is so little, if Shanghai is occupied by outsiders, then they locals don't want to survive.
So in the face of strong pressure from outside, these locals in Shanghai began to learn to move towards unity. And they must not only unite, but also develop again, until they can protect their own interests.
However, since the gang has been divided, it is not so easy to get together, even if these few remaining family members have this mind, but they may not be able to magnify their faces and be the first to bring up this matter, and it is impossible to fully trust each other.
So if they want to really unite, they have to find a figure who can bring everyone together. If Song Xin is still there now, it must be the most suitable person for Song Xin to be the person in charge. With Song Xin's words, who of the people below would dare to say a word.
But isn't Song Xin here now? And in addition to Song Xin, the other main high-level leaders of the gang in the past are all in prison, and in this case, it is really difficult for them to find a person who has both prestige and can convince everyone.
But it's hard to find. Then you have to find a no, this is a serious problem related to everyone's survival. So in this way, in the continuous search, Lai Xiaohu, a person who had nothing to do with them, became their target.
Although they also knew that the forces of Hu Haikun and Gao Hong were brought in by Lai Xiaohu, they didn't care, they were very clear about Lai Xiaohu's attitude, and they could also see that Lai Xiaohu was actually not involved in these things.
In other words, Lai Xiaohu only helped Hu Haikun and Gao Hong and others because of his past feelings, but the same Lai Xiaohu can also help them in terms of feelings.
As for the relationship between them and Lai Xiaohu, of course, there is no direct one. But just like this relationship, nothing is not scary, as long as you are willing to go around, you can always find a relationship between any two people.
It's not. Song Xin is their actual boss, and Lai Xiaohu is the son-in-law of Song Xin's eldest daughter, these two groups that are not related to each other are not related all of a sudden.
has been following Song Xin for so many years, how can they be regarded as Song Xin's people, right? Can't you abandon them now that something happens to Song Xin, right? So Lai Xiaohu still has to care about their life and death. After thinking about this. These people began to send people to Lai Xiaohu non-stop, kept telling Lai Xiaohu these things, and then tried all kinds of ways to persuade Lai Xiaohu.
For these people's vexatious and dead-faced behavior. Lai Xiaohu was deeply bored. But when these people found Song Xin directly, Lai Xiaohu could no longer refuse.
There's no way, Song Xin directly came forward to beg Lai Xiaohu to help his subordinates, so what else can Lai Xiaohu say? So it's really hard to refuse, Lai Xiaohu can only say that he will do his best.
In this way, after resorting to almost rogue means, these remaining local forces immediately gathered in the middle of Lai Xiaohu. Of course, they don't rely on Xiaohu as the boss. On the one hand, Lai Xiaohu doesn't want to be the boss, on the other hand, in fact, these people don't necessarily want Lai Xiaohu to be the boss, they still want Lai Xiaohu to be a tandem person.
For this job, Lai Xiaohu still does a good job. Lai Xiaohu, who had received a lot of news from Song Xin, began to call the leaders of the remnant forces one by one, and then found a time to bring everyone together.
In fact, everyone has long had the intention of gathering together, but it just needs one person to connect everyone together. Now Lai Xiaohu has done this job well, so when they got together to discuss, when Lai Xiaohu said that he wanted everyone to get together again, the others agreed without even thinking about it.
By this time, Lai Xiaohu's work was basically more than half completed, and the rest was just sitting there and watching these people quarrel over their own interests.
It's just that Lai Xiaohu can't leave yet, because he still needs to watch there, in case everyone fights unexpectedly during the discussion, then Lai Xiaohu has to immediately come forward to stop the possible conflict. At the same time, Lai Xiaohu also has to be a witness to the final results of these people's discussions, and it can be regarded as Lai Xiaohu admitting the results of these people's discussions instead of Song Xin.
Fortunately, although these people quarreled constantly, for the sake of Lai Xiaohu's face, they did not develop to the point of being out of control, so no one quarreled until they fought because of a little thing.
As for the results of these people's final discussions, Lai Xiaohu can be regarded as a witness. The way everyone reunited together and some of the principals after the aggregation finally had results.
After the re-merger, the behavior is still based on the previous actions of everyone under Song Xin's hands, although everyone put forward a lot of new ideas during the discussion, but it is precisely because there are too many ideas, so no one can convince the other party, and finally someone proposed, since any new method does not work, it is better to use the previous way.
So. In the end, the organizational form after the re-merger of everyone was no different from before, and it was completely inherited.
As for the matter of the principal that everyone is most concerned about, it is basically the result of a good quarrel. It's not so easy to produce results for this.
How everyone acts together does not have much direct impact on everyone, and there are pros and cons, so they can barely accept it. But the person in charge is not so easy to identify.
There is only one principal, and everyone is not a democratic-owned organization, and they can change the principal at will, so basically after a person becomes the principal, it is unlikely that he will easily come down unless he makes a big mistake.
In this case, the position of the principal becomes the most competitive position. Basically, people with a little strength want to go up and do this throne in their hearts.
In fact, these competitions are similar to the long-term competition between Li Qian and Shanghai, although the positions of the competition are different and the power is different. But in fact, the essence is the same.
This kind of thing still speaks with strength, although many people seem to be the principal, but those who don't have the strength actually don't dare to say their thoughts at all. And even if some people say it, then after the first round of strength competition, those who are obviously not strong will be sent out directly.
And then after the first round. The competition has entered the second round, and Lai Xiaohu, who was watching from the sidelines, has to say that these people are actually very talented.
In the second round. Some of the people who remained began to talk about what would happen if they became principals. What do you want to give to your own people, what do you want to give to those who support you, but what about the whole gang? In fact, it is everyone's theoretical elaboration on the future governance of gangs.
The most direct effect of this thing is that different governance methods may attract the support of different people, so after the second round of elaboration, each person competing for the principal begins to divide and win over the other forces.
After another long-distance and close attack, at this time, one alliance of interests after another has been formed, and everyone began another round of strength competition.
It's still the same as the first round. Those who are not strong enough are directly excluded, and in the end those who are left are definitely the most powerful people.
If you still can't tell the winner in this round, then maybe the next competition will be hot. But the good thing is that this time everyone's competition did not enter the next round, because in this round of comparison of strength, the final winner was directly divided.
At last. Under the witness of Lai Xiaohu, a young man named Yu Fei successfully stood out and became the winner of this time. Yu Fei is still relatively young, and he is only twenty-eight or nineteen years old when he becomes the principal. After the re-merger, the gang that almost directly occupied half of Shanghai became the boss, and this achievement can be imagined. Yu Fei's ability to become this boss at the age of twenty-eight or nineteen is actually quite shocking.
But if you really think about it, this result is also inevitable, because in fact, in addition to Yu Fei, some of the other people competing for the position of the principal are actually not very old, the most likely is a thirty-eight or nine-year-old person, and most of the rest of the people are around thirty years old. In the past, a group of old people were a little older than this, but after they all went in, now the people who can hold up the scene are all about thirty years old.
In addition to the fact that this Yu Fei is not very old, his own strength is not weak at all, otherwise he would not have survived in the most direct strength competition. You must know that the current Yu Fei is the most powerful person in terms of comprehensive strength. And in addition to his own strength, Yu Fei is also outstanding in buying people's hearts and making friends with others, otherwise he would not have relied on the powerful alliance to directly suppress all the others, thus allowing himself to win directly.
In addition to determining Yu Fei's principal, some other major positions below him also successfully elected everyone later.
After the others failed to compete for the principal, they took a few positions below the principal as their targets, so the competition for these positions was actually quite fierce, but it was much weaker than the competition that Yu Fei faced at the beginning. After all, there are more positions to compete for, and fewer and fewer people are competing.
After almost a night of deliberation, the whole gang was all settled, and the results of their own selection were determined. Lai Xiaohu didn't have any opinions, he didn't want to care about these things in the first place, if he didn't really shirk this time, he would never come forward.
The next day, Lai Xiaohu went to see Song Xin and told Song Xin about the results of the discussion last night and some of the important processes.
After listening to Lai Xiaohu's narration, Song Xin was silent for a while, and then said, "That's fine, after all, it's the world of young people now, even you are so powerful, it makes sense to let this group of young people take the position." As for this Yu Fei. I used to think that he would be a character, but I didn't expect him to rise so quickly, what a hero is created by the times. ”
Although he was very emotional, Song Xin also recognized all these results. Through Lai Xiaohu's mouth, Song Xin also conveyed his meaning.
Now it has been witnessed by Lai Xiaohu and approved by Song Xin. Everything seems to be a lot more justified.
By this time. Anyone who knows a little bit of the inside story can see that the world of Shanghai in the future will be divided equally between outsiders and locals. And there is a key figure among them, Lai Xiaohu may be the only one in the future who will have a huge impact on the forces on both sides.
But all this is a matter of the future, after finally getting rid of these things he doesn't like, Lai Xiaohu put his mind on another thing, that is, he wants to open a branch in Shanghai.
Now it has been half a year since Lai Xiaohu opened a branch in the capital for the first time, and Lai Xiaohu has not opened a branch in half a year. This is very slow compared to the expansion rate of Roca Supermarket. It has not been opened in the past, because in addition to his own base camp Jincheng, Lai Xiaohu's most important city is actually the capital city and China's economic center Hucheng.
So after opening a branch in Beijing at the beginning, Lai Xiaohu's next biggest hope is to open his own branch here in Shanghai.
It's just that although he has this desire. But the bad relationship with Song Xin, the underground king of Shanghai, made Lai Xiaohu have to put this plan on hold all the time.
Now Lai Xiaohu's wish is still there, and the situation in Shanghai is very different, all the things that hindered Lai Xiaohu at the beginning have disappeared, and even at this time, the situation in Shanghai may be better than ever for Lai Xiaohu.
So after getting out of other things, Lai Xiaohu began to prepare for this matter. First of all, you still have to choose a good address for yourself.
This is much easier for Lai Xiaohu, when he went to the capital to find the address to open a store, it made Lai Xiaohu exert a lot of effort.
Not to mention that he screened places on a large scale from the beginning, but he finally found a place, but the other problems caused by this also troubled Lai Xiaohu for a long time.
Now there are no problems in Shanghai. Although Lai Xiaohu is still so unfamiliar with Shanghai, he is at least a person who has been in Shanghai several times, and he has stayed in Shanghai for a long time in the middle, for example, he has been in Shanghai for almost a week.
Relying on the only time spent in Shanghai, Lai Xiaohu's general impression of Shanghai has already formed a linkage. Basically, those places in Shanghai are prosperous areas, those places have a large flow of people, those places have a large number of people, and the average income level of those places has the highest consumption level.
And in addition to Lai Xiaohu's own understanding, aren't there still so many people in Shanghai who can help Lai Xiaohu. For example, when Lai Xiaohu said that he would open a branch in Shanghai, the first and most positive one was Song Yaqiao.
Song Yaqiao's familiarity with Hucheng is definitely not comparable to Lai Xiaohu, an outsider, so when Lai Xiaohu said his thoughts, Song Yaqiao directly reported several place names that could be used as references.
"Alright, alright, let's take a look at them one by one tomorrow." Seeing Song Yaqiao's names said one after another, Lai Xiaohu hurriedly stopped the excited Song Yaqiao.
In addition to Song Yaqiao, Song Yadan and Zhuo Liya also strongly support Lai Xiaohu's behavior of opening a branch in Shanghai, in addition to these people, Yu Fei and others who got the news also directly expressed their support to Lai Xiaohu, what they mean is to see where they directly tell them, they can definitely help Lai Xiaohu get the place easily, and after the opening, they will also personally ensure all the security problems of Lai Xiaohu's store, not to mention that the smashing behavior will never happen. Even thieves will never let them go to Lai Xiaohu's Lejia supermarket.
The next day, Song Yaqiao, who strongly supported Lai Xiaohu to open a branch in Shanghai, got up early, and then woke up Lai Xiaohu early without letting Lai Xiaohu sleep well, and the two who got up too early didn't even let Zhuo Liya have time to make breakfast, so the two had to deal with it outside.
