Chapter Seventy-Seven: Han Wenyou
Huo Xiangnan is now working alone, and all the bosses and Baidao are looking for trouble, first of all, the water field in the French Concession, which is already inevitable, but I don't know where I heard the news, and the people just haven't signed the contract for a long time.
Chang Gui was wearing a dark gray tweed coat that day, and a brown suit with woolen wool inside, although it is said that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, but people's temperament and demeanor are there, not a day or two can be practiced, so no matter how Chang Gui dresses, he looks like a little brother who does chores, and does not have the demeanor of a big brother.
In this way, of course, the other party's boss looked down on him, and when Chang Gui came with the contract in high spirits, he was smoking and playing cards in the office, and he didn't stop his movements when he saw Chang Gui.
Chang Gui had no choice but to greet the boss awkwardly, he looked at the boss with a cigarette in his mouth, and tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "Boss Han, are you busy?" ”
The owner of the water field is surnamed Han, called Han Wenyou, he has a relationship with the people of the French Concession Chamber of Commerce and the French Concession Police Department, so this water field was contracted to him, Han Wenyou has one, and he also wants to open a small shop in the territory of Xiafei.
This sounds like a very simple and easy thing to do, but if it is really not so easy to do, in the Huangpu River, every territory, there is its boss, the powerful police can't control it, and the small ones are all paying protection money.
The small owner of a small shop, as soon as he answers these people correctly, he has a lot of money all year round, and basically he can't make any money, but he can't do anything in order to make a living, so ordinary people recognize a big brother, and those who are rich are seeking cooperation.
Huo Xiangnan's Lido, in Xuhui District, he not only manages one Lido, but the entire Xuhui District belongs to Huo Xiangnan's sphere of influence, and the Huangpu River is like this, because in Xuhui District, Huo Xiangnan's influence is the largest.
Why is Huo Xiangnan the most powerful? To put it bluntly, there is still Fang Chu Bridge covering, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Huo Xiangnan's Li was no longer under Fang Chuqiao's control, and the matter spread quickly.
Han Wenyou was wearing a black sweater, the white shirt inside was exposed, looking particularly neat, he was holding a cigarette, holding a handful of cards, playing cards with the three younger brothers under him, he squinted at Chang Gui, and then said: "Ah, here, sit first." ”
"Hehe, not busy." Chang Gui said, looked around, but found that all the chairs were occupied by a few of them playing cards, and he had no place to sit at all, and Han Wenyou and the others continued to play cards and ignored him at all.
Chang Gui could only stand and wait, not even a person who poured him tea, he took off his dark gray tweed coat, put one arm on it, and then loosened his tie, feeling that the atmosphere was quite depressing.
Chang Gui waited like this for nearly an hour, he couldn't help it, and reminded: "Boss Han, I have something to do with you......"
"Who are you? Talking to my big brother like that? Before Chang Gui's words were finished, there was a person who looked like a little brother, and he was not happy, the kid had a toothpick in his mouth, and no matter what he did, he bit the toothpick and played.
Chang Gui didn't pay attention to the toothpick man at all, but said directly to Han Wenyou: "Boss Han, my eldest brother asked me to come and talk to you about the water field." “
Before Han Wenyou could speak, the toothpick man next to him pointed his finger on Chang Gui's shoulder and said, "Do you have any rules, your eldest brother found a little brother to talk to my eldest brother?" Are you good enough for that level? ”
Chang Gui frowned, if he usually slapped him, he would have slapped it a long time ago, but now their Lido is really not too much, so forget it, he glanced at Han Wenyou, Han Wenyou threw the cards in his hand on the table, and said with a smile: "You all go out, I'll talk to Chang Gui." ”
"Big brother?" These little brothers spoke in unison.
"Go ahead." Han Wenyou waved his hand, and several junior brothers had no choice but to walk out, and when they left, they all glared at Chang Gui viciously.
After seeing a few younger brothers leaving, Han Wenyou said, "Chang Gui, sit." ”
"No need, Boss Han, I want to ask about the contract today." Chang Gui didn't talk nonsense with Han Wenyou, he went straight to the point and made it clear.
"Hehe," Han Wenyou lit a cigarette for himself, took a puff and said softly: "Chang Gui, the water field in the French Concession belongs to me, and it stands to reason that it is nothing to give Boss Huo a small station in the area, but can you run it well, now your Lido funds are all a problem, right?" “
"This ......" Chang Gui was choked by Han Wenyou's words.
Han Wenyou stood up, he patted Chang Gui's shoulder, and said, "Listen to the elder brother, first stabilize your Lido, now what you have to do is not to expand your power, but to stabilize your power." “
Han Wenyou left after speaking, leaving only Chang Gui and the contract in his handbag in the house.
When Chang Gui returned to Lido Huo Xiangnan's office, the four Lu Fei brothers were also there, Huo Xiangnan was eating peanuts, drinking wine, watching the four of them play cards, Chang Gui felt very uncomfortable when he saw this scene, he threw his tweed coat on the sofa, and then sat down himself.
Seeing Chang Gui coming in, Lu Fei's four brothers immediately stopped playing cards and came around, only Huo Xiangnan was still sitting on the table, drinking a little wine and eating peanuts, Lu Fei saw that Chang Gui's face was not good, so he knew that the conversation was not good, and asked: "Brother Chang Gui, contract?" “
Chang Gui looked at Huo Xiangnan and replied to Lu Fei: "Then you don't need to say, it's yellow." “
Chang Gui saw that Huo Xiangnan was still drinking a little wine slowly, he stood up suddenly, walked in front of Huo Xiangnan in two steps, his nose was almost touching the tip of Huo Xiangnan's nose, and he said, "What's the situation in Lido now, are you still drinking there?" “
Huo Xiangnan flashed his head back and said, "Then if you don't drink, what else can you do?" “
"If you weren't for your brother, why did you want Lido? Wouldn't it be nice to just give Lido to Boss Fang a sum of money. Chang Gui was a little trembling with anger, he was not for himself, but for Huo Xiangnan and these brothers.
Huo Xiangnan said leisurely: "The matter of the water field, if it is yellow, it will be yellow, and what we have to do now is not to expand, but to preserve our strength." “
Chang Gui was stunned, because this was the same as what Han Wenyou said, it seemed that the vision of the two of them was the same, and he was still a little behind them, he glanced at Huo Xiangnan, his tone softened a little, and said, "Brother Nan, I hope you cheer up." “
Huo Xiangnan said: "I'm very fucking cheering, I seem to have these for outsiders to see, and I know in my heart, you stupid thing." Huo Xiangnan said and patted Chang Gui's shoulder.
"So, what do we do next?" Chang Gui actually stuttered a little.
