Chapter 47: The Road of No Return

Du Xianyu pointed at Li Guolou and said: "Mr. Li, how can you say half of what he says, what difficulties do you have, our friends will definitely help if they can, don't you say?" ”

These fake foreign devils are headed by Du Xianyu, and it is quite rare to hear that Du Xianyu suddenly said something to send to the door. However, since Du Xianyu opened his mouth, the other fake foreign devils immediately asked Li Guolou to continue talking like flies with stinky meat.

Li Guolou, who had already put his hope in his home, suddenly came to the door, and the expression on his face was like a flower, and the big guy Du Xianyu knew that as long as it was not too much, he would help this time.

Li Guolou sorted out his thoughts, and looked at these fake foreign devils around him gratefully, he was still easy to talk to his own family, these people regarded him as a little brother, and they were kind to him because they valued him for his future future.

Li Guolou said: "That's the case, when I entered the yamen, I saw that my eyes were full of desolation, and the law and order in Beijing was on the verge of collapse. The people above do nothing, and the people below are all gangs of people in it. I made a suggestion to the people above to reorganize the atmosphere of the yamen, and now the people below are no longer useful, and they are all rotten to the bone. But these people can't be replaced, and many of them can't afford to offend. That's why I proposed to reorganize a militia to maintain law and order in Jingshi, and we can also learn from the army, as long as there is a fresh force to join, everything will be fine. ”

The militia can fight and kill, be loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and do not have ruffian habits, who does not know these advantages? The eleven fake foreign devils understood as soon as they heard it, and they were all saying that this idea was good, and the fine traditions of the army should have been carried forward to the Beijing division a long time ago.

In the final analysis, the militia is the Han Gang, and the rotten people are the Manchurians, and the rich and powerful Manchus have rotted out of their bones. Only the poor Han people pretended to be the state and the monarch's father, and these militia groups were in the hands of the Han people, and the local forces had slowly broken away from the control of the central government through the vigorous development of the militia groups, and the Manchus had been reduced to the top class that collected money and did nothing. In fact, these changes began with the emergence of the militia group, and the opportunity point was the change of this era.

The organizational development of the militia is inseparable from the support of the foundation, and these non-governmental foundations can also get benefits by supporting the development of the militia, which is a complementary thing, and everyone can see it, not to mention how much benefit they can get in the future.

This is a political and monetary transaction, betting on the right fortune, betting on the wrong blood and losing money, but at this juncture, few big businessmen will give up this kind of opportunity. These fake foreign ghosts are not the most powerful people, they have taken refuge in foreigners and made a fortune, but they have no right to speak in the court. They wanted to drill into the imperial court, and this was an opportunity, everyone was making their own little calculations, and everyone didn't say what they wanted to say.

Li Guolou guessed the thoughts of these fake foreign devils, and said unhurriedly: "You can also see that the war is about to end, and the next thing is to build the economy, and there is no chance to make a fortune in the country." So stop thinking about the impracticality of pie falling from the sky, or a long stream, maybe this is the last downwind boat, and it will be a bone in the future. ”

Li Guolou seemed to have unintentionally glanced at Yu Hanbing, and the tacit meaning was only known to the parties concerned.

Du Xianyu asked, "Mr. Li, what do you Bao adults say?" ”

Li Guolou laughed and said, "Mr. Du, what can the chief say, this kind of thing is not a meritorious leader, there is a stall." Let's see which militia outside was organized by the prince? This kind of thing is not going to be done by the chief, it depends on whether we can do the errand beautifully. ”

Huang Guang couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Mr. Li, why don't you ask the family for help in this kind of thing?" ”

Li Guolou smiled and said: "When I came to Jingshi, I originally wanted to make a good official position, and I spent thousands of taels of silver, but I saw how big this deal was. As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, with you head snakes, why bother to go near and far, send a telegram to Shanghai. My brother doesn't know the movements of Jingshi, he will think that I am a loser, and the tongue I spend may not be able to move my brother, Mr. Huang, do you think I am reasonable? ”

Regardless of whether what Li Guolou said was reasonable or not, the eleven fake foreign devils nodded with a smile, and everyone played haha, each with their own calculations. Some want to wade into this muddy water, some will stay out of the matter, some want to spend a small amount of money to send the yamen of the criminal department, and some want to gamble on Li Guolou.

Du Xianyu suddenly said: "It's not easy for us people to get together, we must unite with each other, otherwise we will be eaten one day." Mr. Li invites you to go outside and watch the performance for a while, let's have a meeting to study it, and call you in later. ”

Li Guolou was coaxed out of the box by Du Xianyu, this is the ending he didn't expect, the big guy Du Xianyu actually wants to drag all these fake foreign devils to this thief ship, what is Du Xianyu's heart? Let Li Guolou be overwhelmed. These fake foreign devils, just find one of them and invest tens of thousands of taels of silver, there is no problem.

Li Guolou didn't want too much in the first place, he just wanted to use the first hundred people, and then arm and train the militia well. There are 120,000 silver enough for him to live for half a year, and then Li Guolou has an income, and then slowly develops and grows.

Du Xianyu came to this hand, which means that he wants to take the big one, and it is by no means to help Li Guolou's squad or a brigade, but it is very likely that he will help the entire criminal department yamen. The matter has been out of Li Guolou's control, and Bao Tong will personally control it next, and Du Xianyu will personally visit Bao Tong. Li Guolou only played the role of introduction, and there was no way, who told him that his current official position was too small.

Li Guolou guessed the ending, watching the dancer keep turning in circles, and imagined Wu Defu's smiling face that couldn't keep his mouth shut in his mind, the biggest credit for this transaction is still the second brother Wu Defu, and what position will he be in? Li Guolou can't control it anymore. As long as the second brother Wu Defu does not cross the river and demolish the bridge, takes all the credit, and leaves him some sweetness, he will be satisfied.

Li Guolou originally thought that watching the song and dance performance outside for a while would have results, but he didn't expect that after he fell asleep for two hours, Huang Guang came to find him to enter the box. Although the fat man didn't say the result in his mouth, Li Guolou's ability to observe words and emotions was strong, and he already knew what the ending in the box was. After talking about it for such a long time, it seems that Du Xianyu is going to spend a lot of money, where is the focus of these fake foreign devils' next investment? Li Guolou knew in his heart that everyone was open and ready to do a big job.

Li Guolou got the best result, but it was not what he wanted, and the taste in his heart was a kind of loss. A good idea, a good opportunity, a good stage, and the best ending are to give a wedding dress for others. However, on the scene, Li Guolou cheered and was grateful for the selfless help of the fake foreign devils. The evening's activities were all Li Guolou's treats, and he didn't know how many orders he signed? Anyway, a lot of them are fake foreign devils and foreign girls to engage in activities, with blood, there is impulse, this is not wrong, the big guy Du is rare to catch three, and the others at least two into the palace. Li Guolou waved his pen, and all the money in his membership card disappeared overnight.

After dinner, Li Guolou was dragged to another box by Yu Hanbing, and the other fake foreign devils pretended not to see it, and everyone looked for their favorite fun.

In the small box, Li Guolou ordered a cup of Longjing tea, and Yu Hanbing ordered a cup of Pu'er tea to send away "Bo'er".

Li Guolou smiled bitterly: "Big brother, forget it after the matter is revealed, if you don't reveal the scars, who will embarrass you." ”

Yu Hanbing looked at Li Guolou and said, "Am I so stingy?" This kind of thing can't be done by the government, and your few words are useless. ”

Li Guolou said suspiciously: "Brother Yu, then what are you doing with me here?" It's a private room, and there are no foreign girls. ”

Yu Hanbing glanced at it and said: "Xiao Lizi, since Xiao Lizi has such great ambitions, I don't tell lies in front of the real person, take advantage of the good time to leave a piece of land for me, you can always do it." ”

Li Guolou replied: "Brother Yu, there will be gains and losses, some of your fields have to be handed over, and it is not necessarily a good thing that the venue is too big, otherwise it will be difficult to explain above." ”

Yu Hanbing said angrily: "Good boy, you want to dig my meat, I just helped you." ”

Li Guolou raised his hand to stop Yu Hanbing from talking, and waited until Bo'er sent the tea and left, then said: "Brother Yu, the guarantee I give you is that you have a complete territory, you must know that if we don't meet here, your field will be completely swept away." You have to know that what gang you are facing next is not the power of the country. Will the imperial court do nothing when it has its hands freed? Everyone has to keep a low profile. Since you have followed the big guy Du, you should understand that you have a better chance of doing the right thing, and you will be a successful businessman in the future, and one day you will sell those smoking gun houses yourself. In the future, if anyone mentions that you are an opium dealer, you will turn your face. ”

Yu Hanbing sneered a few times and said: "Xiao Lizi, you can speak, no wonder you soar into the sky, originally I didn't believe it, a person who picks up a bottle will change." Now it seems that the big guy Du still has a bit of vision, you are a ruthless person. ”

Li Guolou immediately became grinning and said: "Brother Yu, in the future, your business is guaranteed to be better than now, and there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future, so much land has been swept away, take more goods from you, won't you make up for the loss immediately?" Can't you even see this? Don't just think about a few restaurants, it's boring. ”

Yu Hanbing touched his mustache, with a hint of a smile on his face, and nodded: "Xiao Lizi, this sentence is still a bit humane, my family gave you face, and it will be good to take care of my brother in the future, you are my eyeliner in the yamen." ”

Li Guolou hurriedly said: "Brother Yu, when did I become your eyeliner?" ”

Yu Hanbing laughed and said: "If there is a difficulty, there are girls to soak together, since we have already soaked in a bathhouse, everyone will see each other naked, and the affairs of my family will be your business in the future." This is your life, and it is useless for you to quibble. ”

Li Guolou saw the threat of the gangsters, and Yu Hanbing jokingly told him that he had been chained to the ship of the Elders' Association, and he would either betray Yu Hanbing now, or he would only be brothers with the Elders' Association in the future. Yu Hanbing saw that Li Guolou would not betray his friends, so Li Guolou had no choice, the rivers and lakes were a road of no return, and Li Guolou was already deeply trapped in it.
