Chapter 63: The Battle for Tanzhou
Zhou Meng didn't have anything else here, there was a lot of beer, and a few special cigarettes that Lin Jinhong asked him to get back, and when Zhou Meng came up with a box of beer, a bag of peanuts and a few catties of beef jerky, the four comrades-in-arms had already introduced themselves to Lin Jinhong. The four of them are called Lu Tao, Jin Dabao, He Shaosheng, and Gou Da, and they are all between 30 and 40 years old.
Zhou Meng first opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Lin Jinhong, "Chief, give!" Do it yourself! As he spoke, the peanuts and beef jerky were arranged, everyone opened the wine, and everyone raised their beer bottles to toast Lin Jinhong.
"Everyone is out of the barracks, there are not so many rules for drinking, none of us are the chiefs, let's go first!" Lin Jinhong excitedly raised the wine bottle and greeted everyone with a heroic spirit.
"Okay,!" Everyone raised the bottles, and the six bottles touched lightly, and the crisp sound wafted through the living room. At this time, there is no leader, no driver, no leader, no orderly, only drinking friends and comrades-in-arms!
No one was left behind, a bottle of beer was quickly dried, everyone put down the empty bottle, looked at each other and smiled, everyone had a more or less nostalgic look in their eyes, those days that had passed, the days engraved in their hearts, were outlined at this time.
Opened the topic, a case of beer, a few peanuts, a few catties of beef jerky gradually decreased, and the sky gradually darkened, until everyone put down the last empty bottle, looked at the last peanut in the bag lying there alone, laughter!
"Chief, I'll go and give you a bowl of noodles to deal with casually!" Zhou Meng got up and said to Lin Jinhong.
Lin Jinhong nodded, after making trouble for so long, it's time to get down to business with everyone, of course he wants to see Zhou Meng's comrades-in-arms who are not completely here to drink, everyone can see this. Zhou Meng turned around and went out of the living room to the bottom, Lin Jinhong lit a cigarette, and said leisurely: "I heard Zhou Meng say that everyone has not found a suitable job." When I heard the news, my heart was very heavy, and I believe that there are still many veterans in a similar situation to you in our country, but unfortunately I have more than enough strength to do so. ”
"Chief, I know you have everyone in your heart, and we are very happy that you have this heart!" He Shaosheng said busily.
"Yes, yes! The chief is a good person, Zhou Meng often mentions it to us. Gou Da nodded heavily.
Lin Jinhong shook his head and smiled, "What kind of good person am I, how many people can afford to be called 'good people' in the officialdom." I can only say that I will do my best to do something practical for the people, and not be a bad official who harms the people! ”
Hearing Lin Jinhong's confession, Lu Tao, who had been silent, was shocked, and the room fell silent for a while, thinking about the weight of Lin Jinhong's words.
Lin Jinhong smiled slightly, "Okay, don't talk about this, I'm like a princess selling melons." I think there are some things I want to ask you to help with, this matter is a bit troublesome, and it is very dangerous, I wonder if you would like to help with this? ”
"Chief, look at what you said, don't say that we drank so happily just now, we just haven't drunk alcohol, just because you are the chief, what do you command, we all go to the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot, whoever frowns is a bad seed!" Jin Dabao hummed, patting his chest puffily as he spoke.
"It's just that the chief doesn't believe in our ability when he says this, and none of us are a bad seed!" Gou Da was not happy to say. Lu Tao and He Shaosheng were silent, but their eyes were also full of heat.
Lin Jinhong didn't expect that the reaction of the four of them would be so big, he smiled secretly, "Okay, I'll just say it directly, there are two things: the first thing is to protect a person, his name is Chen Jiming, and I will have people send you specific information; The second thing is to let you compete for the right to speak in the underworld in Tanzhou City and control the underworld in Tanzhou City. As for why I did this, I will tell you slowly in the future. But there is one thing I have to say ahead, I can't provide you with any assistance, you have to find your own way for money and people, we should have never met, and you must not contact Zhou Meng in the future! After he finished speaking, his eyes flashed over the four of them, and then he walked to the side of the chair and sat down, giving them a moment to think.
Jin Dabao almost didn't think about it, so he patted his chest and agreed: "I did it, I believe in the chief!" ”
"I believe in the chief, too!" Then Gou Da said not to be outdone.
"Although the chief didn't tell us the reason, I also believe that the chief is a person, and I did it to compete for the Tanzhou underworld!" In the end, Lu Tao and He Shaosheng answered in unison.
Lin Jinhong nodded, "Okay, after a few days, we will be strangers we don't know, until you take the Tanzhou City underworld!" One thing you have to remember is that you used to be a special soldier, don't really degenerate, there are not a few underworld bosses who are doing evil in my hands, and there are not a few underworld bosses who brutalize ordinary people! ”
Lu Tao and He Shaosheng looked at each other, secretly relieved, with Lin Jinhong's words, they already knew the bottom of their hearts.
At this time, Zhou Meng came up with six bowls of noodles, "Chief, try my noodles, I can't cook other dishes, but the craftsmanship of this egg noodle has been perfected!" ”
Lin Jinhong laughed and took one of the bowls from the wooden plate: "You can also brag about your feelings!" Well, I can't see it, it tastes really good, and it doesn't seem to be all bragging, let's eat it! ”
The six of them chatted about some interesting things in the barracks while eating, and they had a good time. After eating noodles, Lin Jinhong instructed Lu Tao and the four of them a few more words, and then asked Zhou Meng to send him back to the guest house, and Lu Tao and the four of them stayed with Zhou Meng tonight.
On the way, Lin Jinhong made a call to Ma Chen, asking him to prepare Chen Jiming's information, and let Zhou Meng pick it up later, and at the same time ask Zhou Meng to take Chen Jiming back and hand it over to Lu Tao and the four of them for protection.
got off at the door of the house, Lin Jinhong wrote a phone number and handed it to Zhou Meng, saying: "You give this number to Lu Tao and let Lu Tao contact him, so that they can avoid some detours!" ”
Zhou Meng took the note and suddenly asked: "Chief, I don't know if I should ask a sentence?" ”
"Ask!"
"Do you really believe in Lu Tao and them so much, is this the first time you have seen them?"
Lin Jinhong patted him on the shoulder, "I believe in your vision!" ”
Zhou Meng was stunned, a trace of warmth surged in his heart, he saluted, and said resolutely: "I will watch them in secret for the chief!" ”
Lin Jinhong nodded solemnly, "Drive the car back directly, Chen Jiming is very important, you have to be careful." ”
"Yes, Chief!"
