Chapter 65: 'Knockoffs'
"What do you mean? Is there any dissatisfaction with this drawing? "I picked up the drawing and looked at it, it was the new drawing that He Ru came to find someone to change in the morning.
Zheng Baichuan pretended to knock on the table and said, "Mr. Gu, we signed the old drawings on the contract, and we have to pay for this." ”
"Sit on the ground and start the price?" I laughed, sat on the side, and asked him with a pleasant face, "Then Mr. Zheng thinks how much is appropriate?" ”
Hearing this, Zheng Baichuan stretched out five fingers.
"Fifty thousand?"
"No, that's the number!" Zheng Baichuan's fingers are still in front of me, still five.
I thought for a moment and asked, "Half a million?" ”
Zheng Baichuan still shook his head.
"Mr. Zheng, I think you've drunk too much, right? Million? I'm just changing the floor design, and your Zheng family's hand is a little more expensive. I leaned back in my chair and sneered absently.
"Mr. Gu, let's be honest, don't you have any money at all?" Zheng Baichuan suddenly frowned, looked at me with contempt, and said, "This Red Fox Bar is really yours?" ”
"What? This bar changed hands when I didn't know it? I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Heh, Gu Yunchang, don't pretend! As early as two years ago, you were kicked out of the Red Fox by Mr. Wei! Are you relying on the emperor to be far away, catching up with He Yu and becoming a fool, and you want to be a white wolf here with empty gloves? Zheng Baichuan sneered and finished speaking, slapped the table suddenly, stood up, and said with a shaky voice, "Believe it or not, as long as I tell this matter now, the people in this bar will have to throw you on the street, and then you will not even be as good as a beggar!" ”
Hearing this, I also laughed and asked him, "Then according to Mr. Zheng's meaning, how can I not tell him about this?" ”
Zheng Baichuan put the five fingers in front of me again, and threatened, "This is not much." ”
"Five million to buy a secret, it's really not much." I nodded.
Zheng Baichuan said again, "That's right, besides, the money in this bar is not yours, He Yu's kid is stupid, you took it for nothing, give it to me, keep you safe for a while, you won't lose." ”
"But...... Mr. Zheng, I, Gu Yunchang, have really never used anyone to protect me in my life, and I have always protected others. As soon as I grabbed Zheng Baichuan's wrist and pressed his hand on the table, I pulled out a knife from my lower back, and with a snap, the knife was directly pierced between the fingers of Zheng Baichuan's index and middle fingers.
Zheng Baichuan was taken aback.
So I asked him, "Five million?" ”
As I spoke, I pressed the knife to his index finger, and the sharp blade was instantly bloody.
"Wait... Wait a minute! Zheng Baichuan shook his hand in horror, but his other hand touched the wine bottle on the side.
"You say wait, I'll wait, but the wine bottle, put it down." I replied without hurry.
Hearing this, Zheng Baichuan hurriedly retracted his hand again.
I asked him, "Five million, do you want more?" ”
"No... Don't. Zheng Baichuan hurriedly shook his head, as if to show his sincerity, and hurriedly took the drawing back.
I let go of his hand and said slowly, "You deliver the work on time, I will pay on time, don't miss a day's work, don't think about those useless, you are a person who understands, you should know that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, in this small Jiangcheng, I want to kill you, just like crushing an ant." ”
Zheng Baichuan nodded nervously, but I could see that he was just pressed by my ruthlessness, and he was not convinced, but when he left this private room, he didn't shout stupidly everywhere, saying that I had been removed from the Red Fox.
In fact, as early as three months ago, the people of the Chen family found out that I had a problem, and the Zheng family should have known about it for a long time, but Zheng Baichuan has been working diligently for the past three months, and he has not troubled me.
With his brain and character, since he dared to come to me, there must be something going on that I didn't know about.
I came out of the private room and was about to discuss this matter with He Rulai, when I received a message that He Rulai called me to go to the roof.
When I got to the top of the building, I saw him squatting on the eaves of the entertainment street, eating melon seeds.
"How did you change the land today? Didn't you always go to the back of the house? I walked over and asked casually.
"That's because you're squatting behind you when you're old, and my heart isn't so dark." He Ru said and handed me a handful of melon seeds.
I also crouched next to him and helplessly explained, "I'm not called dark, I like to be quiet." ”
"You watched the show for many years, and your brain made the bar stereo break." He Rulai corrected the sentence, and then pointed to the bottom with his chin.
Seeing this, I followed his gaze and saw that the shopping mall across the street had removed the signboard and was working overtime to renovate and renovate.
Knocking the melon seeds in his hand, I thought for a while before I asked him, "Is this what Zheng Baichuan did?" ”
He Rulai knocked on the melon seeds and did not speak.
"This grandson, just now asked me for five million! I was afraid that he was crazy, so I helped him sober up. "I'm a violent person, and He Rulai has always been criticized, seeing that he doesn't speak, I recruited myself.
As a result, He Rulai said, "If it were me, I would also ask you to extort the five million, at this time, don't do it in vain." ”
"When?" I turned my head to look at him inexplicably.
"At the time of the East Window incident." He Rulai snorted.
I then reacted and asked him, "The people over there have arrived?" ”
He Rulai pointed to the shopping mall opposite with his chin again, and gloated, "I'll probably see you tomorrow, and it will take a few days to make the real trick, and then you can make the field a little harder for me, don't be topped by this 'copycat'." ”
Hearing this, I looked at the mall opposite, and I saw a few workers, holding a newly installed neon sign and hanging it on the entrance of the mall, and on the sign was a scarlet fox mark and the four big characters of red fox bar.
When I looked at it, I couldn't help but be happy, and asked He Rulai, "Who came up with this idea?" ”
"I don't know, I heard that it was Qiu Laohu's grandson who came over, this is really old and brainless, and the little one is also cannon fodder." He Rulai shook his head disdainfully.
"Qiu Laohu's grandson?" I was surprised, I remember this Qiu Laohu, when I was grabbing land in the north, I was the first to shoot him, as for why, as He Rulai said now, because he has no brains. But I don't have any impression of his grandson.
Hearing that I didn't know, He Rulai said, "I haven't seen it either, I heard that it's a little fat man, maybe he only came out in the past two years, and he has grandchildren, and he is not very old." ”
The two of us squatted on the eaves of the building and looked at the 'Red Fox Bar' on the opposite side to hang the sign, and when the work was over, the melon seeds of the two of us were gone, and we looked at each other, and then went back to the house with a smile.
The bar is open at night, and there is a sign on the opposite side, which can naturally be seen by the people on our side, but the rules of the red fox are heavy, and the palm does not speak, and the people below never ask questions.
It wasn't until four o'clock in the second half of the night that there was nothing wrong with the bar, and He Rulai called the managers of each floor to the hall and told everyone about it in front of everyone.
In fact, there is nothing to say, these people were personally selected by him to bring to the south, in He Rulai's words, it is these people who have unconditional trust in him and me, and what he needs to correct is only that we are not the 'Red Fox Bar' before.
Everyone has already noticed this, because before coming to the south, He Rulai said that it is not allowed to be blackened again.
This actually has a great impact on the bar business, but these people have accepted it, and have gradually adapted to it in the past two years, and now they can do it well.
We are the red foxes of Jiangcheng, and we have nothing to do with the red foxes in the north.
This is He Rulai's original words, I have to admit that his brainwashing ability to employees is really strong, these people not only did not feel panic, but there was a feeling that they could finally raise their eyebrows after being suppressed for two years.
To be honest, I don't have that feeling, I just think it's like a farce, it is He Rulai's boredom, and he came up with fun, but I also yearn for it, because he said that the end of this road is the Pinghu blue sky I want.
When the meeting was over, the men went down separately to preach.
He Rulai and I didn't take it seriously, we went back to the house to rest, and the next morning I received a call from the front desk, saying that there was a gentleman surnamed Qiu below who wanted to see me.
I knew that Qiu Laohu's grandson was here, so I said to the front desk, "Follow the rules." ”
Then the front desk hung up.
