It is easy to do things with money, whether it is a gang or a business, this is generally useful.

Zhou Hexuan gave 2,000 oceans to be used as the start-up capital for the "Pao Brother Salvation Association". Nominally, it is a branch of the Brotherhood, but in fact it is a civil society organization, and in terms of management, it has the characteristics of a company and a gang.

Chu Zhiliang served as the president, Zheng Rentong served as the secretary general, and there is no need to elaborate on the following, which is in the face of the society.

And within the Elders' Association, Chu Zhuliang is equivalent to opening a hall, which should be called "dock" in the language of the rivers and lakes. Chu Zhiliang is the "master at the helm", Zheng Rentong is the "second master of the sage", and the remaining third, fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth, and tenth masters are all robe brothers brought by Chu Zhiliang.

There is no way, Wang Er, Yuan Wujiu and Zheng Rentong are all foreigners, and it is rare for one of them to enter the "high-level", and all of them will definitely cause dissatisfaction among other brothers.

Chu Zhuliang relied on his fame and financial resources to recruit more than 30 Pao Brothers, if he hadn't selected him strictly, the scale of the "Pao Brother Salvation Association" was estimated to be more than 100 people. This is the charm of money, Chu Zhiliang promised to pay each member a salary, which is equivalent to an employee of the company, which is a treatment that other robe brothers do not have.

Li Jiatuo.

Later, it was placed under the jurisdiction of Banan District of Chongqing, with a population of about 150,000 and a well-known prosperous business district in the local area. But at this moment, Lijiatuo is just a village and town, and the surrounding agricultural population is only 20,000 or 30,000.

However, with the Yangtze River waterway at its back, and the Sichuan-Guizhou Highway built by Yang Sen and Liu Xiang passing through here, Lijiatuo's industry and commerce are developing rapidly, and several cotton yarn factories, woolen mills, and weaving and dyeing factories have been built.

The quilt factory invested by Zhou Hexuan and his father-in-law was also selected in Lijiatuo. First, the raw materials are very convenient, there are cotton yarn factories and weaving and dyeing factories next door, which do not need vehicles and ships, and can be carried directly by workers on their shoulders; Second, the traffic situation is good, the north is the Yangtze River, the south is the Sichuan-Guizhou Highway, and the south can be shipped to and from the north.

A wooden ferry boat came from the north, and when it was about to dock, the hungry people on board got up to probe and they would spend a long time in Lijiatuo.

Chu Zhiliang clapped his hands and shouted: "Don't panic, don't mess up, Zhou Shenxian has a stable arrangement, everyone has a way to live, everyone has something to eat!" ”

Hearing this, the hungry people sat back down, some with smiles on their faces.

In the hearts of countless hungry people, "Zhou Shenxian" is synonymous with being able to eat well, which can eliminate panic, bring hope, and make them feel that there is still a rush in life.

These hungry people, who had been raised in the porridge field for three months, and their discipline and obedience had been greatly improved, and they were selected as workers to build factories.

The ferry boat was still more than 20 meters from the shore, and the boatman suddenly shouted: "Fight steadily, Grandpa Shi bless, the nest water will disperse quickly!" ”

"Wowo Shui" is the whirlpool water, Lijiatuo is not a good port, the Yangtze River flows here becomes turbulent, forming a huge backwater mound, and the past dynasties do not know how many ships sank here.

In order to seek peace, the common people carved a stone statue on the rock wall more than ten meters high by the river. The stone statue is sacred for some reason, sitting on a boat with an axe in hand, facing the Yangtze River and glaring angrily, which can ensure the safe passage of passing ships.

In modern times, the river boats with a slightly larger displacement are no longer afraid of the whirlpool here, and only the small wooden boats still retain the awe of the stone gods.

The ferry docked, and the first to come down were the members of the Pao Ge Salvation Association. They stood on the shore, took the roll call in turn, and when they counted one, the hungry people got off the boat and lined up honestly, as if they were waiting for the porridge to be put in the porridge field.

Chu Zhiliang handed over the hungry people to his subordinates, and led people to the only teahouse in Lijiatuo, where he was going to worship the pier.

Almost every hall of the Sichuan Pao Brotherhood has set up the wharf in a teahouse, and worshipping the wharf is actually to invite the local helmsman to drink tea.

Li Jiatuo's helmsman is called Zhang Xiuping, a landlord, who has studied in a private school, and has shares in Li Jiatuo Yarn Factory, so he is also a prominent figure here.

Chu Zhiliang entered the teahouse with four of his subordinates, and immediately a master (tea man) shouted with a cooking pot: "Alas, five bowls of hairy tips, a few leaves from many sides!" Immediately, the master made the tea, gently covered the tea bowl, and stepped aside.

Chu Zhiliang walked to the tea table and sat down, and did not drink tea, but untied the lid of the tea bowl and buckled the lid on the bowl holder.

The master came over with a cooking pot to refill the water and asked, "The guest officer is far away?" ”

Chu Zhiliang hid his hands under the table and replied: "The brother's surname is Chu, and the grass name is Zhuliang. ”

As soon as he heard that it was the helmsman from another place who arrived, the master immediately became respectful and continued to ask: "Is the brother passing by, running on the beach, or rolling the case?" ”

Chu Zhiliang said: "Brothers don't run the beach, don't roll the case, and come to see you if you have something important!" ”

"Wait a minute." The master said and walked into the inner hall.

After a while, the master came out of the inner hall again and said to Chu Zhiliang: "Please come out of the inner hall, the tea money is waiting at the dock (the local robe brother will have paid for the tea)." ”

Chu Zhiliang followed the master in, and the master pointed to a person and introduced: "This is the fifth brother of Zhang Quanyu, the manager of the Red Flag." ”

The Red Flag Steward is the Red Flag Fifth Master, which is equivalent to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Personnel of the local hall. In the past, Chu Zhiliang was the fifth master of the Black Flag, which was probably equivalent to the director of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and the commander of the military region, and then the head of the public procuratorate and law.

Chu Zhiliang handed over the famous post of the rivers and lakes and said: "Brother was in a panic when he came, and he left in a hurry, please bear with me." I have heard for a long time that the mountains and rivers of Guilongtou's big pier are beautiful, outstanding people, brotherly etiquette is not thoughtful, greetings can not be received, please forgive the big fifth brother! ”

Zhang Quanyu laughed, personally got up to help Chu Zhiliang set the bench, and said, "Brother Chu, don't be polite, I've heard of your name." Brother Zhang (the local helmsman) has something to do when he goes out and can't receive him personally, so let me have a few drinks with you today. Second baby, hurry up and get some food and drinks! ”

"Thank you Fifth Brother Zhang for your hospitality!" Chu Zhiliang hugged his fists.

Zhang Quanyu asked casually: "Didn't you mix in Qixinggang before?" Why did you become an old shaker in the robe to save the country? ”

Brother Pao Salvation Association has not been recognized by the Inner Eight Sects for the time being, so it can only be regarded as a broken dock, and Chu Zhiliang has also become a miscellaneous robe brother in troubled waters, so he, the helmsman, can only be called Lao Shao.

Chu Zhiliang said: "Now that there is a famine in Sichuan and a Japanese invasion outside, my brother thinks that Brother Pao should also do the right thing, just like the chief helmsman of Chongqing Brother Pao, he is a real man!" Our Brother Pao Salvation Association abides by all the disciplines of Brother Pao, but it has another purpose, that is: to serve the people, unite the township, serve the country with blood, and save the country! ”

Zhang Quanyu immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "Good man! ”

Chu Zhiliang smiled shyly: "These truths were actually taught to me by Mr. Zhou." ”

"Which Mr. Zhou?" Zhang Quanyu asked.

"How many Mr. Zhou are there in Chongqing?" Chu teaches good ways.

Zhang Quanyu's face was solemn, and he arched his hand to the north: "Isn't it the Zhou Immortal who bought grain for disaster relief, shot Qin Fenlu, tried and killed Liu Congyun, and called for thunder and rain?" ”

Chu Zhiliang smiled and nodded: "Serious business." ”

"Oops," Zhang Quanyu hurriedly stood up, bowed and said, "It turns out that Brother Chu is doing things under the name of Zhou Shenxian, and he is disrespectful." If you have anything to do this time, as long as I can do it, I will grit my teeth and help! ”

"There's no big deal," Chu said, pointing to the east, "and the land there was bought by Mr. Zhou, and he wants to build a factory, which is about to start." Today, I specially brought the workers here, if there is any disturbance, please forgive me. To tell the truth, these workers are all hard-working people, and they were still waiting in the porridge field yesterday to receive porridge to eat, and Mr. Zhou is looking for a way for them to live. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say," Zhang Quanyu patted his chest and said, "I will let people say hello, and you are not allowed to make trouble on the construction site, if something goes wrong, you can ask for my braincase." ”

"It's not that serious." Chu Zhuliang said with a smile.

Zhang Quanyu asked: "What kind of factory does Zhou Shenxian want to build?" ”

Chu Zhiliang said: "The quilt factory produces clothes, bedding and other things. ”

Zhang Quanyu said happily: "That's very good, you can buy from Brother Zhang's yarn factory." ”

Zhang Xiuping, the local helmsman, is Zhang Quanyu's cousin, and now the relationship between the two friends in the rivers and lakes has immediately become a potential partner, and they will inevitably get along more harmoniously.

If you want to do anything in Sichuan, you must have good dealings with the robe brothers from all over the country, and once there is a contradiction, there will inevitably be problems every once in a while.

Chu Zhiliang, the chairman of the National Salvation Association, will work in the next year, which is probably equivalent to Zhou Hexuan's public relations minister, and the entire eastern Sichuan region will run all over the pier.
