There are not many rules to say about the gangsters eating on weekdays, but when it comes to large dinners, they pay a lot of attention to it. For example, it is not allowed to eat roast chicken, because it is shaped as a nest of arms and legs; Don't eat fish, disembowelment to avoid disemboweling, etc. Then there is the fear of some religious people, so they don't eat pork, and when they encounter trouble, they stew beef and mutton, and add bread to the outside.

Hou Xing originally thought that there might be a lot of people, so he temporarily borrowed tables, chairs and benches from several small restaurants, borrowed some teapots and cups, and hired some chefs who arranged banquets to come over and cook. According to his thoughts, the big wine vat plus the water ladder of the Li family and some friends and acquaintances, it is the limit that three or four hundred people can come, and these people can cope with a meal of this scale enough, and they can handle it completely.

But in fact, the number of people who came far exceeded his estimates, whether it was the venue, the tables and chairs, or even the food, there were big problems.

The first person who came over was not Ma Dabi, nor was he from the Li family, but it was a few Cao Gang Lizi uncles in the Jinmen Water Pot Gang. Among the Jinmen pot guys, the Cao Gang is entrenched in the wharf, eating the bowl of rice of the water pot guy, and has little contact with the dry pot guy like the small shoe shop and the fish pot guy of the Li family of the water ladder. The well water in the two times does not interfere with the river water, and as for bringing people to the party, Hou Xing didn't even dare to think about it.

The Cao Gang is a senior and rule-oriented, and the uncle of the etiquette generation is the year of the fight, and most of the people in the gang are the key players who take power. After the reform of the Dajin Kingdom and the return to the sea, the power of the Cao Gang was greatly reduced, but in the underground gang, it was still a pivotal figure.

Even in the army, there are some people who cross two doors in one body, both in the army and in the gang, and Yuan Weiting's standing cage is actually not much damage to the Cao Gang. The leader who is really in power has already said that there is no need to go in and die, but a few people who have drawn a death lot to go in to show that the Cao Gang surrenders.

On the rivers and lakes, except for another Hongmen, which had something to do with the former Song Dynasty, the Cao Gang had little resistance. Several Lizi generations personally brought nearly 100 disciples and protΓ©gΓ©s to support the small shoe shop, which made Hou Xing a little flattered, and hurriedly brought someone over to greet him.

Those dragon leaders were all middle-aged people in their forties, wearing robes and horse coats, looking very much like decent people, and their subordinates were also very well-behaved, which was very different from ordinary gangsters. After seeing Hou Xing, one of the dragon leaders bowed his hand, "You are Second Master Zhao?" ”

"No...... The small one is the military advisor here, my name is Hou Xing. Our village owner still has something to do. A few village owners, sit inside, I'll make you some good tea. Then let the owner of the village come out and greet a few dragon heads. ”

"Don't bother, let's sit down here, your owner is busy in advance, we are not in a hurry. This time, Second Master Zhao wants to fight the Pang family, this is a good thing, it is an opportunity for the children of Jinmen Jianghu to show their fame, and the disciples of the Cao Gang must not be left behind. Hou Ye rest assured, we Cao Gang thousands of disciples and disciples are all supporting you, the Pang family will use whatever means they have, and if it's a big deal, we will fight him and see who is afraid of whom. ”

Not long after these people sat down, the men and horses with the big nose and the people of the water ladder arrived one after another, and after them, there were more than a dozen leaders of the Jinmen water and dry pot gangs, and they rushed over with their subordinates. In the entire small shoe shop area, there are now close to five hundred gangsters gathered.

Receiving so many people and maintaining a relatively good order requires a level of organizational and coordination skills. Hou Xing is obviously not good at this, not only to greet and thank everyone, but also to be responsible for reception, and always pay attention to which friends are not taken care of, busy and anxious, but it is not suitable everywhere.

Fortunately, Zhao Guanhou rushed out at this time and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, don't worry, I'll handle it." Then the order began to be issued.

The gangsters who came, each under the leadership of their respective gang leaders, sat down according to their belongings, and there was really no place, so they had to be wronged first. He first visited the leaders one by one, as well as some gangsters who were not in the pot but had great prestige in their own right, and after expressing a few words of apology, he ordered the cook to make sure that everyone had a share, but there was no need to be full, and the rest should be done as soon as possible.

Originally, when the meal was served, some people didn't eat, but some people were intercepted near the water first, and this time it was deployed, but it was barely enough to make everyone empty, avoiding the possibility of infighting. As for the lack of tableware, you can only do it yourself, and the ready-made meat pot is placed there, and you can grab the meat by yourself. Tea can only be enjoyed at home, and ordinary gangsters can only figure it out by themselves.

Fortunately, the Cao Gang disciples, who have the largest proportion among them, are all in order in front of the master, and if they don't get up to make trouble, the other gangsters won't say anything. On the scene, it barely maintained well, and the people in charge of urgently buying tableware, teapots and cups also rushed over one after another, and the situation is gradually improving.

Ma Dabi was trying to introduce himself in front of several leaders of the courtesy generation, and made friends with a few people, but the owners of these pot guys were just polite and perfunctory to him, and obviously had no intention of talking deeply. However, when Zhao Guanhou came over to salute, these people got up together, rushed over first, and gave him a salute.

"Second Master Zhao. Our brothers rarely come to visit on weekdays, don't be surprised by the second master, we are real friends, but no one has introduced us, and there have been fewer people moving around in recent years. It's our fault, you're a lot of adults, don't worry about the villains. ”

Zhao Guanhou didn't understand why these people rushed to please themselves, but fortunately, these people couldn't save their words, and a dragon leader quickly unveiled his hole cards.

"Jin Ye sent someone to deliver a letter, let us stand on your feet and cheer for you this time, our Cao Gang was almost ordered to copy the incense hall by Banzai because of helping the former dynasty transport grain, and the incense was cut off. Thanks to the good words that Ancestor Jin said for us, he retained the bloodline of the Cao Gang, rewarded the dragon whip and dragon ticket, and ensured that the Cao Gang had its own dock, and the disciples of Erlang had something to eat. From south to north, the children of the Cao Gang have to thank the ancestors of the Jin Ye family, even if they fight for their lives, they have to listen to the dispatch of the Jin Ye family. Although this incident is a matter between Zhao Erye and the Pang family, since you are a friend of Jin Ye and a brother of our Cao Gang, before coming, we have already drawn lots, and when the time comes, we Cao Gang disciples will stand on top, and we must not let Zhao Erye put himself in danger. ”

Only then did Zhao Guanhou understand that these people were also the helpers arranged by Jin Shi for himself, and this favor seemed to be the more and more he owed. He doesn't feel that he has any value to use, whether it is the identity of the rivers and lakes or what, the kind of people like Jin Shi want to use people, as long as they say a word, some people are rushing to work for them. Helping myself so much, it will be difficult for me to repay him in the future.

Those Cao gang leaders didn't know the specific relationship between Zhao Guanhou and Jin Shi, and they didn't want to ask much, but they decided that this was the confidant of that Jin Ye, and although that Jin Ye was not in the gang, he had a transcendent status in the gang, and he couldn't neglect his friends. Therefore, when he spoke, he was very respectful, which made the gangsters in the small shoe shop very proud, and felt that his faucet was indeed majestic enough.

At this time, Ma Dabi also brought a few owners of the dry pot guys over, and the fox said pretending to be a tiger, "I tell you, Guanhou is my brother, and there is no difference between him and his own flesh and blood, you should be polite to him, otherwise it will be against my Ma Dabi." Isn't it the golden seal of Haidilao, when the time comes, there will be ten people in our big wine tank, I won't believe it, and I won't be able to control the Pang family. ”

Several village owners ignored him, but pulled Zhao Guanhou aside and talked privately.

"Second Master Zhao, we haven't seen each other before, but I know Ma Dabi, and we are our own people. We have also heard about you, Haidilao Golden Seal, you are this! A pot farmer raised his big finger

"Everyone is talking behind their backs, and they all say that you are the new master of Jinmen, and everyone has to give you a thumbs up. But this matter of Haidilao seal, you have to think about it again, but you can't be the first to rush the owner of the village, this will break the rules of the ancestors. ”

"Yes, the old rules of our pot gang are, everyone draws black and red lots, life and death are according to the destiny of heaven, the owner of the village sits in the pot gang, and leads the three armies, you say that if you jump into the oil pot, who will take care of the people under you? Besides, if there are other things in the future, we won't be able to do it. ”

The seal is different from the previous station cage. The station cage is Yuan Weiting's name and surname, and he wants to be the owner of the pot gang village in Jinmen, just like the territory of the two armies, and he scolds the battle, if he does not dare to fight, he will become a night pot that is laughed at on the rivers and lakes, and the owner of the village will be unstable. However, fishing for seals is similar to the ordinary seizure of the dock, the black and red signs are life and death, the red signs are desperate, and the black signs are dead, and the owner of the village is only the commander of the three armies on the command platform, and will never charge into battle. If Zhao Guanhou opened the head of the owner of the village to get off the oil pot, it would be difficult for others to do it.

After the station, the Jinmen gangsters have no leader, and most of the new village owners can't hold down the field, once Zhao Guanhou's matter spreads, the members of his gang may not be easy to manage. What people are most afraid of is to learn from the same, if these pot guys also ask their boss to rush to the front in case of trouble, how can the owner of the village be?

They can't force anything to ask, but this time they brought someone over to the platform, even if it was a good intention, the request made could not be considered excessive, and Zhao Guanhou had no reason to refuse. After all, all pot guys are the same, and when this kind of thing happens, it must be the pot guy's children who draw lots to send them to death, and there is no reason for the boss to take the lead.

Some people suggested that since they had gathered so many people, and there were still brothers from the Cao Gang, they could have a big fight and give up the idea of making copper coins. As long as you subdue the Pang family, are you afraid that you will not return that bead? Several leaders of the Cao Gang also nodded, and there was no shortage of thugs in the Cao Gang who dared to work hard, plus they were doing side business on the water, and they might even get arquebuses if needed. I don't worry much about group fights.

Zhao Guanhou just smiled at everyone's suggestions, and then said: "The most important thing in messing around on the ground in Jinmen is the rules. Now that we have decided to fish for the gold seal, then we will use force again, as if we are afraid of the Pang family. Besides, we don't know where the bead is hidden, and even if we win, it's useless. Everyone is kind, and the brothers have it, as for who is the first to catch the seal...... We'll talk about it then. ”

There was an endless stream of guests, and when it was nightfall, the small shoe shop was still full of people, and the gangsters regarded it as a grand event, and from time to time someone came in a rickshaw to participate in the grand event.

Fortunately, Meng Siyuan had already set up a joint in the Yamen of Jinmen County, and Li Xiushan's new army also greeted him, otherwise so many people would gather together, and the local Yamen might have to report it as a rebellion to the Yamen of the Governor of Zhili.

In the Pang Mansion, Pang Jinbiao waved his hand, and several orders were issued like a stream, and the Pang family's elite family began to act. Su Blind and Hanyan had just finished smoking a big cigarette, and when they were wandering out of the world, the door was kicked open, and before the two could react, they were stuffed into a sack.

Another group of people, wrapped the steel knife tightly in green cloth, sat in a rickshaw, and came to the small shoe shop in the dark, but as soon as they got off the rickshaw, they were stunned by the scene in front of them and didn't know what to do. A gangster thought that the other party was here to help, and enthusiastically stepped forward to greet him, but the family members dodged backwards, but they didn't pay attention and tore off the knife cloth. After an angry scolding, the small shoe shop fell into a boil.
