Chapter 223: Big business, big is not easy
It was more than two o'clock in the afternoon.
The sky was overcast, the whole county was as hot as a big steamer, there were few vehicles and pedestrians on the streets, and people tried to hide in air-conditioned houses or indoor fans as much as possible.
On the side of the road opposite the Dongyun Detention Center on Xifang Road, there were two agricultural diesel tricycles, and fifteen or sixteen young men were standing under a few big trees on the side of the road, or sitting on the gang of the diesel tricycles, chatting one after the other.
Squeak ......
The large, rusty iron doors of the detention center opened.
The young men on the opposite side suddenly cheered up, and several people who were originally sitting in the car hula jumped down and stared at the half-opened door of the detention center.
A tall, muscular young man wearing a white vest, big black pants, slippers, and a shaved head walked out unhurriedly, carrying a paper bag. Behind him, two policemen closed the large iron door.
Zheng Wenjiang tilted his head, with a smile on his face, looking at the group of brothers across the road, his eyes finally fell on the face of a tall man standing in the middle of the crowd, slightly half a step ahead, wearing big pants, short-sleeved T-shirts, and sneakers.
Zheng Wenjiang raised his arms, turned his head to look at the door of the detention center, raised his face and howled loudly, then turned around and walked quickly towards Wen Shuo.
Wen Shuo also strode up to meet him.
A bunch of people all followed.
Didi......
A moving van hurriedly honked its horn, but was frightened by the vicious gaze of the young men, and quickly braked to stop, and when the men reached the middle of the road, they cautiously drove past the back of the crowd.
"Zhuang Yuanlang has entered Beijing, and he is willing to return to our poor Dongyun?!" Zheng Wenjiang punched Wen Shuo in the abdomen.
Wen Shuo took a deep breath, his stomach was retracted, and then he swelled, bounced Zheng Wenjiang's fist away, hugged his shoulder with a smile, and said, "I heard that I have entered the palace three times a year, and it is comfortable and addictive to live inside?"
"Isn't this knowing the law and abiding by the law? Zheng Wenjiang laughed: "You can't resist or run away, right?"
The crowd laughed in unison.
"Let's go, hurry back, don't get in the way here......" Wen Shuo hugged Zheng Wenjiang, waved his hand and ordered, everyone turned around and walked quickly to the two agricultural diesel engine tricycles, hula and got into the car.
Liu Ji and Hou Jinqiang were in charge of driving, and the two diesel tricycles suddenly left with black smoke.
On Xifang Road, the sound of young men shouting and screaming was left, and they gradually drifted away.
After returning to the scrap yard and chatting with everyone for a while, Zheng Wenjiang waved his hand and drove everyone out: "It's time to do the work, don't you do business......?"
Everyone giggled and walked out.
Hou Jinqiang, Liu Ji and Li Yanbiao also went outside to collect the waste products and pile them under the shed.
In the house, there were only Wen Shuo and Zheng Wenjiang left.
Wen Shuo lit a cigarette and said, "I didn't expect you to do such a good job, okay......! Especially when there is a group fight, it is difficult to grasp the proportions, so you have to think about it clearly. ”
"Alas. Zheng Wenjiang sat on the sofa, leaned forward, lit a cigarette and smoked, sighed softly, and grinned bitterly: "Shuo, you are not in Dongyun this year, the brothers' business is doing well, and I have learned a lot, just like you said, it is not so easy to do business, just rely on myself, let alone make money, everyone is finished!"
"It's good now. Wen Shuo smiled and said with relief.
"Now, I always think of what you said before, every time you take everyone to do things, and wipe your ass afterwards, I really admire!" Zheng Wenjiang took a deep breath of cigarette, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and said: "I used to disagree with you in my heart, but after this year, I realized that the reason why I was not convinced at that time was because I was used to relying on you, anyway, what do you say about what we should do, you have the idea to take it, I feel that everything is not so difficult, and it can be done easily." But as soon as you left, everyone was confused...... When encountering things, there is no backbone, you can't make a decision with a word, and sometimes you quarrel for a long time. ”
"Can you think of this, it means that you guys are not arguing now, right?" Wen Shuo smiled.
"It's been a long time since I stopped arguing, and everyone understands what's going on, and we all know that it's not easy to do business without anyone. Zheng Wenjiang shook his head with self-reproach on his face, and said, "Also, I am actually ...... now I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm starting to fight now, and I'm starting to get scared, really! I'm scared every time I fight!"
"Huh?" Wen Shuo was stunned - this, he really didn't expect it.
Zheng Wenjiang laughed out loud, and then said: "It's not that I'm afraid that I'll be beaten and injured, I'm afraid that what if someone dies?" Now we have such a good business and can make so much money every month...... Of course, you can't compare with Brother Shuo, but in our Dongyun, my brother is also a celebrity now! With an income of seven or eight thousand a month, and with such a big scrap yard, the business is getting better and better, who doesn't envy us? If you have to run away because of a fight, or if you are shot and sentenced to a few years or more than ten years, then it's not worth it! What is the business you have worked so hard to do? Isn't it just that you have money to spend, and your family is comfortable, and if you go to prison, what the is there to be comfortable? No matter how good the deal is, it will be cheaper for others. ”
"Wen Jiang, it's great that you can figure this out. Wen Shuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and he was also a lot more relieved to Zheng Wenjiang.
"However, if you don't fight, you can't do it, you still have to continue fighting......" Zheng Wenjiang suddenly changed his words, and his expression flashed with ruthlessness and perseverance, and said: "In the past, not many people looked down on the business of collecting scrap products, but now our group of young people who graduated from high school have made the business bigger in such a short period of time, and they are quite profitable, do you know, how many people in this society are hot-eyed?"
Wen Shuo was stunned and nodded, "I can imagine it." ”
"So......" Zheng Wenjiang took a deep breath and said: "Liu Ji, Monkey, and Biaozi and I have always been willing to listen to you and act according to your previous instructions, but it still doesn't work, buying and selling this thing, if you earn more money, someone will earn less money, at least, he will feel that you earn more money than he should earn, which will inevitably lead to conflicts, if you don't look for everything to find you, don't fight, can it work?"
"Have you considered talking?" asked Wen Shuo with a smile.
"I can't talk about it. Zheng Wenjiang shook his head and said: "We can only fight, whoever finds our stubble, we will fight hard, and in the end the other party will not dare, and we will fight in the future...... No one dares to provoke us, this business can be considered stable. I've discussed it with my brothers, don't be afraid, let's take out all the money we've earned in the past few years and give it to others, and also pay for our own medical expenses, and one day there will be a time to make money in peace and stability, and besides, the money is getting more and more, isn't it?"
Wen Shuo nodded helplessly and said, "Wen Jiang, your idea is right, and you can't say that your method is wrong, but it's not too perfect." ”
"I've thought about that, too. Zheng Wenjiang smiled bitterly: "And the brothers discussed it privately, and they also said that if you are at home, we will fight a battle, and the effect can be better than ten times now, but you are not here, none of the brothers can convince people with reason, hey, if you can't deal with it in a few words, then you can only fight." ”
After Wen Shuo frowned and thought for a while, he shook his head helplessly and nodded again.
There's no way around it.
After all, it is impossible for him to stay in Dongyun for the career development of these brothers. There are some things, no matter how much they explain them in detail, they can't do it, and they can only slowly accumulate experience and gradually mature and become proficient.
As the old saying goes, "Master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual." ”
Zheng Wenjiang and the others believed, and Wen Shuo himself also believed that if he led a group of brothers to do business in Dongyun, he would be able to avoid many fights, and even put an end to the phenomenon of being fined by the police station and being detained and squatting.
It's not that he's too conceited, it's that he knows that there are some words and things that the brothers can't say and do.
"By the way, Zhan Chuanhai took over the scrap purchase and picking business near the train station, and when everyone drank and ate together yesterday, I could see that some brothers were not very satisfied. Wen Shuo changed the topic and no longer talked about the problem that Zheng Wenjiang was worried about.
"Well, this matter is my partiality, and I am also protecting him, and no one can give an opinion. Zheng Wenjiang did not shy away from admitting, and said: "Chuanhai is honest, timid, and completely ineffective in fighting, and the brothers will inevitably have opinions, thinking that he has the least strength, but he eats the most...... But if I don't give him this fat, his family will not be able to live, usually care about his face, I haven't told my brothers, oh, by the way, Liu Ji, Monkey, Biaozi all know, Zhan Chuanhai and his father followed others to the coal kiln last year, originally wanted to make more money, but something happened and almost died, and now he is still half-dead at home, almost a year. If it weren't for this, the family would really not be able to hold on, with Zhan Chuanhai's academic performance, even if his parents smashed the pot and sold iron, they would have to let him continue to go to school......"
Wen Shuo showed sympathy and said, "It's really a pity that he studied so well." ”
"To put it mildly, I hope that his father will die soon, the family will have less burden, and Chuanhai will follow our brother to save some money and continue to go to school. Zheng Wenjiang pursed his lips, shook his head and sighed and said: "I discussed with him that day, I will go to the third year of high school after the summer vacation, I will lend him money if I am short of money, and I will pay it back in the future, guess what?"
He disagreed. Wen Shuo snorted and said, "Honest man, stubborn!"
"No, alas. Zheng Wenjiang put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, leaned back on the back of the sofa, and said, "Oh, that's probably it, I came out of the detention center, Ming'er, let's go see his father together, what's going on?"
Medium. ”
