Chapter 59: For the first time, please take care of me
After leaving the hotel, I walked with Peony to the "Old Dragon Firm".
As a result, the friend Chen Bicheng mentioned turned out to be a manager of the Laolong Commercial Bank, and we will get mixed up from there in the future. I told Peony not to be too ostentatious, just when we are a pair of brothers and sisters in distress. Then Peony reminded me that Jin Jiu was also over there, and I immediately thought, then I should pretend to be a couple.
Coming to Laolong Commercial Bank, this is a shop with a very Chinese charm in decoration, and the business you can see just by seeing it has pawn mortgages, entrusted services, and all kinds of intermediaries. As for the invisible business, it can only be hehe.
We explained our intention at the front desk lady to find a housekeeper named Shi Jia.
The front desk lady immediately changed her respectful attitude and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Shi's distinguished guest, and Mr. Shi told me early this morning, so I will take you over." ”
It seems that this Shi Jia's status in Laolong Commercial Bank is not low? Thinking of the bag of "things" that Chen Bicheng entrusted Sister Hagi to me, I couldn't stop sneering in my heart.
Bringing us into a very well-lit office, Peony and I knocked on the door and walked in to see a man in his forties in Tang costume talking to a young man in his thirties.
After introducing each other, I learned that the man in his forties was Mr. Shi Jia, and the sturdy young man in his thirties was called Zhang Xincheng.
"Xincheng, these two were introduced to the second master by my deceased, and you will have to bring more of these two newcomers in the future."
Zhang Xincheng looked at me and Peony, "Mr.'s matter, Xiao Zhang must take it to heart." ”
Mr. Shi nodded, "I haven't been to the gym for a long time, so I'll go back with you to meet the second master now." ”
Subsequently, the four of us got into Zhang Xincheng's car and drove to the boxing gym that Shi Jia said. After driving for less than five minutes, I saw a boxing gym called "Doutailiu", and after entering, I saw that many men were practicing boxing. Seeing Mr. Shi walking by, they all respectfully stopped the training at hand and greeted him with fists.
Finally, I came to a detached house behind a boxing gym. Upon entering, I saw a white-haired, bald, pot-bellied man basking in the sun while enjoying the compressions of a young woman in a kimono beside him. On the other side, there was a woman in the same dress who was giving him tea.
Come to think of it, he is the boss of the "Longlao Chamber of Commerce", Cheng Yongqiang Cheng Erye.
Seeing us coming, the second master affectionately pulled Mr. Shi over and beckoned him to sit down, and asked the woman in the kimono to pour tea for Mr. Shi. Peony and I followed Zhang Xincheng's example and saluted the second master, and Mr. Shi found an opportunity to introduce us.
The second master said with a smile, "For this little thing, Mr. Shi also made a special trip." Wouldn't it be okay to let Xincheng bring it over? Then he turned to us and said, "I also had some friendship with Chairman Chen, and we also did business together and formed a good relationship. Since it is the person who President Chen confesses, I will not ignore it. In the future, they will all be their own brothers, and if I Cheng Yongqiang eats a bite, I will definitely share half of your mouthful! The tone was sonorous and powerful.
Then the second master asked Zhang Xincheng to take us to the place where we stayed, and taught us some rules by the way.
"Originally, the boxing gym didn't accept women," Zhang Xincheng looked at Peony Dao, "But since there is the face of the second master and Mr. Shi, I will make an exception." And in the future, you shouldn't stay here, but follow Mr. Shi to do things. ”
"What the hell does Mr. Shi do? Why does even the second master respect him so much? I asked.
Zhang Xincheng said with a smile, "The second master has been too old to do anything recently, and several of the old brothers under him are all rough and not proficient in business. The affairs of the business house were basically handed over to Mr. Shi to take care of, and as a result, the business was getting better and better. ”
Zhang Xincheng took us to a fourth-floor building next to it, which was the dormitory of the second master's subordinates. Three or four people in a room, and Peony and I were specially taken care of and lived in the attic, a large bed, a wardrobe, a writing desk, and a coffee table in the middle of the ground, the place was not small. Zhang Xincheng also specially instructed that each floor has a separate bathroom.
After settling in, Peony disappeared at some point, I should have gone to find Ruihagi, and I was used to her elusiveness.
When I returned to the gym, a person about my age came to me and told me that the second master was looking for me.
When I saw the second master again, Mr. Shi had already left, and the two women in kimono just now were gone. At this time, he looked at me with a slightly different look than when we met him just now, and his eyes were as deep as if he wanted to see through me.
He lit a cigar and gestured to me, I shook my head and pulled out my own cigarette to ask, and he let me feel free.
Just after the two of us swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog for a while, the second master knocked on the table with his knuckles and said, "Listen to Mr. Shi, you robbed the eldest son of the Huangcheng family in China, and he wanted to kill you?" Is that the one who was with you just now? ”
Chen Bicheng had already told me before this set of rhetoric. I nodded, "Yes." ”
The second master suddenly laughed, but his smile made me a little uncomfortable. "Interesting, really interesting lad. But...... Do you know what we do in our profession? ”
I nodded, "President Chen has already told me about it. ”
The second master said, "In the afternoon, I will ask Xincheng to take you to familiarize yourself with the work." ”
Familiar with the job? What a meaningful statement.
……
Zhang Xincheng took me and my two brothers to a nearby place called Banjin Street, and listened to his description that there was a hard stubble here, and he had not paid the "rent" for more than half a year, so he came to settle him this time.
I don't know what he means.
When I arrived at the door of an antique shop, Zhang Xincheng said to me, "Go ahead, you go and talk about it first." If the other party refuses to give it, I will take them in and use the strong ones, which can be regarded as a salute before the soldiers. Then he took out his cigarette and handed us the roots.
I'm going to be tested so soon? I shook my head and smiled wryly. When he came, Zhang Xincheng brought a bag, and several cold knives were faintly visible.
Inside, a thin old man was wiping something behind the counter. Seeing me come in, he glanced at me lightly and said, "The second master sent you?" I've said that business has been bad lately, so let him be lenient again......" He stopped talking abruptly in the middle of speaking, because ...... I've pulled out the grab.
He looked at me in disbelief, as if he hadn't expected me to show this thing directly. Actually, I've only been learning this thing from Peony for a long time, and I really want to find a target to try at this time, don't get me wrong, of course it's not looking for someone to be a target. I looked and saw a fairly large piece of porcelain behind him, probably not missing the target.
Bang! A gunshot was followed by the sound of porcelain shattering.
Then I slapped the gun at the glass counter in front of him, and said with a harmless expression, "Uncle, I didn't hear what you just said, can you say it again?" ”
