Chapter 25: Make a big move
Everything can be viewed in two parts.
Zhang Chu lost his troops in the first battle of Sihaitang, and when he went, there were twenty-four neat men, and those who came back, plus Li Gouzi and Yu Er, were no more than ten people!
The follow-up pension and soup and medicine expenses almost bankrupted Zhang Chu's family, and even the base camp construction site was once stopped because he couldn't afford it.
This is definitely a bad thing!
But on the other hand, it's also a good thing.
First of all, the bosses of the Black Tiger Hall, most of them died in the first battle of Sihaitang, and the territory, business, and younger brother they left behind always need someone to take over, right?
Liu Wu?
Not to mention that Liu Wu is used to being a charter man and can't do business, let's just say that he now has two or three big cats and kittens under his hands, and he can't support such a big plate.
What if you can't hold it? You can't throw it away, right?
can only be assigned to the four surviving bigwigs in the hall for the time being!
In the Black Tiger Hall, is there a stronger boss than Zhang Chu now?
The other three bigwigs, have the guts to grab it with Zhang Chu?
Don't know how Cheng Daniu died?
So, before Zhang Chu could ask for it, Liu Wu took the initiative to send a part of the territory, business, and younger brother to Zhang Chu's men, and said: Those who can work hard!
Secondly, the former Black Tiger Hall, ranked twelve in the top position, was a big man, and his qualifications were older than Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu has just arrived, who can he afford to provoke?
This led him to do things and be constrained, not only to take care of Liu Wu's opinion of him, but also to take care of the thoughts of other bigwigs in Tangkou.
A lot of good ideas stop at ideas and don't dare to implement them at all!
Now, Liu Wu is concentrating on recuperating from his injuries and has no heart to take care of the affairs of the hall.
The remaining three bigwigs, seeing Zhang Chu, all politely took the initiative to greet him.
Who can still hold down Zhang Chu?
Isn't that a good thing?
......
Zhang Chu led Li Gouzi and Yu Er to slowly inspect his territory.
At the beginning, when he joined the Black Tiger Hall, Liu Wu gave him a street.
With the manpower of that street, he started a mixed soup business.
Later, he stabbed Cheng Daniu to death, and Liu Wu, in order to compensate him, also assigned a street under Cheng Daniu's men to him.
It's a pity that the two streets do not meet, and there are two streets in between.
This kind of territory is like chicken ribs for Zhang Chu, it is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it!
Which Cheng thought, this sudden bloody battle in Sihaitang reimbursed the two bigwigs in the middle of Zhang Chu's two territories at one time!
When Liu Wu redivided the territory after the war, with a stroke of the pen, he directly assigned the two streets to Zhang Chu.
Now the four streets are connected together, occupying almost a quarter of the entire Wutong Lane!
The land is available, the manpower is still sufficient for the time being, and the funds are quite sufficient......
Zhang Chu finally decided to make a big move!
"Second child, arrange it!"
Inspecting the entire site, Zhang Chu stopped, turned around, raised his hand and made an understatement: "This street...... Demolished!"
"What?"
Yu Er's eyes widened in disbelief, and he stumbled and said, "It's all demolished?"
"It's all demolished!"
Zhang Chu nodded affirmatively: "The people who live here, give money, and all move to the other two streets!"
"How much does that cost?"
Yu Er only felt that his brain was not enough: "Okay, what are you doing demolishing these broken shacks?"
"Do what?"
Zhang Chu smiled, his eyes slowly swept over this low, dilapidated, and decaying shack, and slowly sketched an attic of singing and dancing in his mind: "Do some gang people, the business that should be done!"
Yu Er looked confused.
Zhang Chu didn't explain to him, and directly turned his head to look at Li Gouzi: "Dog, you assist the second child, you must do this thing well!"
Li Gouzi nodded without thinking: "Well, I'll bring someone over in the afternoon to find out!"
Zhang Chu smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
That's why he admires Li Gouzi.
Anything, as long as he tells him to do it, Li Gouzi will do his best to do it, and never ask why.
He turned and walked towards the base camp construction site on the next street.
Yu Er caught up and asked, "Master Chu, what about the other two streets?"
Zhang Chu replied lightly: "Where to throw it, those two streets will be handed back to the hall sooner or later, don't bother thinking about it." ”
Yu Er understood, nodded in response.
As Zhang Chu walked, he asked the two: "How did you do with recruiting people?"
Li Gouzi replied embarrassedly: "I only recruited three." ”
"Three?"
Zhang Chu frowned and looked at Yu Er.
Yu Er: "I don't have many here, just four." ”
This amount is much less than Zhang Chu expected!
Zhang Chu's brows furrowed even tighter, "What is the reason?"
Yu Er kept his head and didn't speak.
Li Gouzi hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Master Chu, there were too many people who died that night...... It scared people. ”
Zhang Chu was stunned.
In the battle of Sihaitang, there were too many people killed in the Qinglong Gang, so many that those idlers on the street regarded gangs as a high-risk industry.
That's not going to work!
His plates are getting bigger and bigger, and he needs to be tended everywhere.
After pondering for a while, he said, "Continue to recruit, and when the time is right, you can raise the example money a little higher...... By the way, there are a lot of little beggars in Wutongli and the cattle and sheep market that no one cares about, right?"
"Yes, Master Chu!"
Li Gouzi nodded, and his tone suddenly became a little embarrassed: "Those are all children from poor families, the family has suffered, and there is no father and mother, so they can only go to the street to beg for food, and they can be one day at a time." ”
Zhang Chu: "Go back and help me pay attention, those little beggars with sound hands and feet, who want a way to live, send them to me!"
Li Gouzi didn't ask why, but asked a very practical question: "Is the girl also or?"
Zhang Chu hesitated slightly, and affirmed: "Send it!"
Li Gouzi nodded: "I understand, Master Chu!"
Zhang Chu suddenly thought of something, and turned his head to look Li Gouzi up and down: "Dog, how old are you this year?"
Li Gouzi bared a mouthful of big yellow teeth and said with a hippie smile: "What's the matter? Chu Ye, do you want to ask me for an aunt?"
Zhang Chu kicked him angrily: "If you want to be beautiful, Lao Tzu himself will beat a bachelor...... Seriously, you've been the most likely this year?"
Li Gouzi: "I don't know how old I am this year...... When my mother died, my sister just learned to call my mother, and since then no one has told me how old I am. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Chu glanced back at the goods.
His sister Zhang Chu has seen it, and she should be eleven or twelve years old this year.
When his mother died, his sister only learned to speak, so this thing should be a teenager and a half year old at that time, right?
No wonder this guy didn't say the right thing when he talked about the little beggars on the streets.
"Okay, you can take the time to come to my house tomorrow, and I'll teach you something!"
After a pause, he looked at Yu Er again: "Second child, I don't teach you to teach dogs, I don't mean anything else, it's just that you are older and can't learn!"
Yu Er seemed to know what Zhang Chu was going to teach Yu Er, and glanced enviously at Li Gouzi, who was stupid and happy with his teeth, was silent for a long time, and lowered his body and said, "The little one understands." ”
