After a series of smashing shops, the shops of the Shaanxi Merchants Gang and the Huanghai Merchants Gang have reopened their doors to welcome customers. But strangely, there are only some inferior goods in the store, and all the good goods are put away.

As soon as the shop opened, the hooligan ruffians hired by the Yulin Merchant Gang came to the door again. But this time, the shopkeeper and his guys didn't protect the store like before, but ignored them, drinking tea and chatting, while watching them find fault and smash things.

Of course, these scoundrels don't understand why. However, as long as the shop is unable to do business, their task will be completed, and they will be able to receive the reward when they go back, so they don't bother to think about it, and after the ping-pong mess is smashed, they will disperse in a hurry.

As soon as these men left, the shopkeeper and his men immediately took out their abacus and pen and paper, and counted the destroyed and stolen goods, and calculated the total amount according to the price of the superior goods.

After a few days, although there are still ruffians who come to the door, there are fewer and fewer people. On the first day there were twenty or thirty men, but on the second day there were only sixteen or seventeen left, and on the third day there were not even ten men. They themselves didn't know where those like-smelling companions had gone, but Ma Laosi's orders could not be ignored, so they had to be bold enough to continue to make trouble.

And this time, the local ruffians broke into the door of the shop again, only to find that the guys who didn't even raise their heads a few days ago were now holding sticks and had been waiting for a long time. Seeing someone showing their heads, the guys didn't say a word, picked up a big stick and beat it. Some ruffians couldn't dodge and were knocked out by a stick at that time.

These ruffians and hooligans are usually bullying masters, when have they ever suffered such a violent loss? In the past, they always relied on the strength of the crowd, and the store owners adhered to the ancient motto of "harmony makes money", and they were always afraid that the fight and trouble would disrupt the business, so they always swallowed their anger, and these people could succeed again and again.

But today is different, the shopkeeper and the guys have no mercy, and they don't seem to want to do business at all, but specially cast a big net, waiting for this gang of hooligans to drill.

If you really start to do it, these ruffians will be exposed. The reason why they can bully the people on weekdays is because the people dare not fight back. But don't talk about fighting back today, the guys in the store are simply chasing them and beating them, until these people cry and call their mothers, hugging their heads and running around.

Of course, there are some clever ones, who sneak out of the store when they see that the situation is not good, and go straight to the Chang'an County Ya or Xi'an Mansion Ya, and a wicked person sues first, saying that the store is a big bully, shoddy, and deliberately beats the people of An Shan.

But the officials who call these hooligans and ruffians brothers and sisters on weekdays all said with a straight face at this time: "Don't fucking make trouble, the above has spoken, and Lao Tzu can't cover it now!" ”

Not only will these shrimp soldiers and crabs not be able to figure it out, but even their leader, Ma Laosi, the leader of the Yulin Merchant Gang, is also puzzled. He originally contacted dozens of hooligan leaders in Xi'an, and these hooligan leaders mobilized their younger brothers to cobble together nearly 1,000 people to make trouble for the Shaanxi Merchant Gang and the Yellow Sea Merchant Gang.

However, after a few days, a small half of these dozens of hooligan leaders lost contact. The atmosphere in the market has also changed, the number of bullying and dominating the market, fights and brawls has decreased significantly, and the faces of honest and responsible small households have also appeared with long-lost smiles.

"What the fuck is going on?" At the banquet that night, Ma Laosi slapped the table and shouted, "Usually when these grandsons reach out for silver, they beat each other more diligently. Why are they used now, and they are like shrunken turtles? ”

"Gang leader, we may be underestimating our opponents, and the methods we use are too simple." Li Hu stopped his cup and groaned, "I guess your missing brothers are probably more than lucky!" ”

"What, do you think they were killed by the Shaanxi Merchant Gang?" Ma Laosi said in disbelief, "Won't it?" Shaanxi businessmen can count the few pieces of materials, we can count them with our fingers! Li Henian is a timid and afraid old man, and Li Zicheng also squatted in the class room for a day; Not to mention Li Zijie, he wore a pair of pants with us. Who of them could do such a vicious thing? ”

"You forgot the one with the surname You!" Qiao Beiyue also frowned and said, "Your subordinates have been tossing so happily these days, but he hasn't even shown his face, which is really a bit abnormal." Until now, we don't even know where the others are, maybe this kid really hired a killer to commit murder! ”

Li Hu said again: "And that Li Henian is not a fuel-efficient lamp." The person who went to make trouble today was beaten, but the government didn't care, he must have made a lot of effort out of it. If Huang Zhutou was here, he might not have sold his face, but he died at this juncture! ”

Ma Laosi made the two of them break out in a cold sweat, and said nervously: "Then what should we do now?" Is this the end of it? ”

"Not really." Li Hu shook his head and said, "Have you noticed that we are making such a fierce fuss in their shop, and they must know that we did it; But no one has ever come to make trouble in the shops of our major merchants. Unless they are unwilling to use this means, it means that the power they can use is very limited, and they can only come to the dark, not the light. ”

"So what?" Ma Laosi still said anxiously, "We can't bear the darkness!" In the past few days, my brothers have either been unable to find them or have been injured, and if this continues, Lao Tzu will soon become a bare rod! ”

Li Hu said unhurriedly: "Actually, it's very simple, Gang Leader Li just needs to let your subordinates stop making trouble, and that's fine." Let's protect our own storefront, and then continue to make a fuss about the price of goods. ”

"In terms of price, we have joined forces, although the Shaanxi merchants can't sell the goods, but our own losses are not small!" Ma Laosi said distressedly.

"That's the time to compete." Li Hu smiled slightly, "Even if the surname You is powerful and can kill your brothers, he can't kill the common people." We sell cheaper than them, and the common people will recognize the bargain! If they want to compete with us, they can only reduce the price and sell at a loss. The three of us have a much thicker family background than them, as long as they persist for a few more months, they will run out of working capital, and they will naturally be finished, so why bother to fight fiercely. ”

Qiao Beiyue also chimed in: "It's still Boss Li's idea. In the end, we are businessmen, and businessmen must use businessmen's means to solve problems. I want to see how long a merchant gang that has only been established for a few days can hold out under the joint suppression of our three major merchant gangs! ”

Ma Laosi had lost the aura of a few days ago at this time, so he had to bow his head and say, "That's the only way!" I don't think we'll go out these days, arrange more people at home to avoid the limelight! ”

After that, for several days, Ma Laosi really hid in the courtyard of his deep house and did not dare to show his head. At first, he still had a hint of fantasy that his missing doglegs would reappear. But soon the bad news came: the bodies of some ruffians were found one after another!

There was a murder, and of course the Xi'an government couldn't ignore it anymore. But the new head of the arrester who succeeded Huang Jihuang did not care about this matter, but only symbolically sent a few officials to patrol the streets, and interrogated some ordinary people near the place where the bodies were hidden.

Not to mention that these ordinary people don't know, even if they do, no one will talk much. Because these ruffians and hooligans do all kinds of evil on weekdays, everyone hates them, and the common people wish they died early. Upon learning of the death of a few hooligans who were so angry with the people, some ordinary people actually ran to tell each other, beat gongs and drums, set off firecrackers, and ruthlessly bought a few taels of pork to go home to make dumplings, which was even happier than the Chinese New Year.

There are also some kind-hearted people who chant the Buddha vigorously: "Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not yet come!" These ruffians usually do a lot of evil, and now they will be punished! It can be seen that there are gods three feet above the ground, and we still have to do more good deeds in the future! ”

The common people rejoiced, but the ruffians and hooligans were all frightened. There is no need for Ma Laosi's orders, and now no one dares to go to the Shaanxi Merchant Gang and the Yellow Sea Merchant Gang to make trouble.

But the deaths didn't stop there. While more corpses were discovered, the living ruffians did not escape the patronage of death. Some of the hooligans were still wandering the streets the first day and were found dead in their yards the next day.

Ma Laosi was even more scared to death. At this time, he had no intention of taking care of his business, and he was huddled at home all day. In addition to the dozens of buddies of the Yulin Merchant Gang, he hired more than a dozen dart masters to serve as guardians, taking turns day and night to protect the Ma Mansion impenetrable.

In a small tea shop outside Mafu, Zhu Youzhen, Yan Ling and others after the change of appearance were drinking tea while observing the movements of Mafu.

"The big shopkeeper, the Ma Mansion is well guarded, and it's not easy to start." Yan Ling whispered.

Zhu Youzhen smiled contemptuously and said, "I didn't expect him to be quite vigilant." In this case, he will save his dog's life first. Anyway, his doglegs have solved a lot of problems for us in the past few days. He is like a vicious dog that bites people, if we knock out all his teeth and cut off all his claws, he will only have a pile of rotten flesh, and he will not make much waves. ”

"What about Qiao Beiyue and Li Hu?" Yan Ling's eyes flickered.

"They are different from Ma Laosi." Zhu Youzhen sneered, "Ma Laosi is already considered an underworld, so let's fight violence with violence." But Qiao Beiyue and Li Hu only colluded to raise prices and lower prices, and did not do anything out of the ordinary. This is also their cunning, Ma Laosi just let them be used as guns. ”

He was silent for a moment, then raised his head firmly and said, "The things in the business field still have to be solved in the business field." Don't think that this will crush the Yellow Sea Merchant Gang, I will have to make them lose all their money in the end! But business warfare has its own laws of business warfare, and it is not as simple and enjoyable as killing. I think this battle has just begun! ”
