"I originally thought that these 600 rounds of ammunition would be enough for you to practice for three or four days, but I didn't think that before the two days had passed, there would not be much ammunition left."

Li Jianjun glanced at the only two boxes of ammunition left in his bag.

Fifty rounds in one box.

Yesterday afternoon, this morning, Ang Lee had already used up more than 500 rounds of ammunition.

However, the effect is obvious, Li Ang's progress is rapid, it only takes less than two days, and he can be called a veteran in terms of target shooting.

This made Li Jianjun feel a little emotional.

People with a good sense of guns have an innate talent for shooting, which is not envied by others.

Lee Ang held the gun in both hands and made a standard shooting motion.

"Bang!"

Smoke drifted from the black muzzle of the gun, nearly twenty meters away from him, and the last soda bottle tied to the branch that swayed in the wind shattered.

He pointed his gun down.

"Uncle Jun, how many bullets are left?"

"One hundred rounds, it should be enough time for you to practice for two hours." Li Jianjun replied casually.

"Then don't practice yet. After the things on the dock are dealt with, I still have something to do, so I can keep the bullets for backup. ”

Li Ang groaned.

From shooting skills to mastery, he is not so much practicing guns as just getting familiar with the feel.

More often, in order to prevent Li Jianjun from being too shocked, he still has to grasp the degree when practicing guns.

There aren't many bullets, so take a break and don't rush it.

Now the proficient level of marksmanship is barely enough for the time being.

Wait for the next batch of goods from Chaozhou to come to Hong Kong, buy some more bullets, and shoot guns from time to time to keep them in shape.

Li Jianjun nodded: "That's okay, you are a businessman, not a soldier, you don't need to be so diligent." ”

He added: "However, this practice of shooting targets and shooting people are two completely different concepts. As soon as the gunshot rang out, blood splashed in front of him, and the psychological impact was still great. ”

"I understand."

Ang Lee closed the safe, unloaded the magazine, filled the bullets, and finally loaded the magazine, and then put the pistol in his bag.

After experiencing so many vicious battles, his psychological quality is definitely excellent. In the past, fists and knives were used, but now they are just replaced by guns, and the means are different.

It's all killing, and there is no difference between fists and guns in Ang Lee's opinion.

The two cleaned up the bullet casings that had fallen during gun practice. He took another step and looked carefully, and when he saw that there was nothing missing, he turned to leave.

After walking for about ten minutes, I walked through the barren forest and came to the road.

There are not many pedestrians on the road, most of them are in a hurry, and some people occasionally unconsciously glance at Li An who is carrying a duffel bag.

When he came to the dock, Li An handed the bag in his hand to Li Jianjun, and he went to prepare to inspect the situation of the file.

The three newspaper files on Linsey Street, after the stalls were determined, he handed them over to Ah Xin to take care of.

In addition to being a little busy these days, I also have the intention of cultivating Ah Xin.

Even though today is the day of the opening of the three newspapers, Ang Lee also handed it over to Ah Xin to host, and he has no intention of going to see it.

Doing business also requires an open mind, just like in my previous life, I ran a mom-and-pop shop, and I thought about being a little rich and peaceful, so it didn't matter, just like going to work, I was both a worker and a boss.

Although it is tired, it is better not to be controlled by others, even if you earn a little, you are comfortable, and you are really too busy to recruit a clerk.

But if the business wants to become bigger, then at least the pattern must be opened.

The boss has to do everything himself, and every little thing has to be grasped in his hands, and he still runs like a mom-and-pop shop, and the business is destined to be small.

Industriousness can only be mixed with food and clothing, and people who can use talents will make a fortune.

If it weren't for the fact that there are not many reports now, they are not large-scale, and there is no need for high-end management talents for the time being, Li An would have thought of a way to recruit a few managerial talents.

After inspecting the three newspaper files on the dock, Ang Lee took a newspaper and read it roughly, except for the gimmick, it was still a gimmick.

I didn't see any interesting news.

Putting down the newspaper, Ang Li didn't linger too long, and walked straight to the dock.

"Brother An."

"Brother An."

The two brothers hurriedly stood up.

"Sit down."

Li An pulled a bench and sat down, and answered casually.

Glancing around the dock again.

"Where's Wu Shihao?"

"There happened to be a shipowner manager who needed a few crew members, and Brother Hao brought people over." Dawei gritted half of his cigarette and quickly took over.

"Oh."

Li An nodded: "Dawei, it's almost time for dinner, you go buy something to eat first." ”

"Okay."

Dawei answered, took a cigarette in his mouth, and turned to leave.

"By the way, Kou Hongsheng lost nearly two hundred coolies all of a sudden today, did he come here to find trouble?"

Li An's eyes swept over the busy coolies and asked casually.

Not far away, Li Jianjun, who had returned to the dock one step earlier, was taking the account book to count the goods. In front of him, Amin and the coolies, who acted as a planner, said something, and from time to time they sent a calculation chip, and everything seemed to be in order.

Xi Wei laughed:

Kou Hongsheng didn't react, but his man, nicknamed Chicken Feet Black, came over and walked around us.

When he saw that all the coolies who had been working under him came to our side, he was very angry, and he seemed to be very unconvinced, and he was still scolding when he left. ”

"Ignore him!" Li An smiled, and then said:

"Of course, if they are unwilling and come over to find trouble, then it is just right, directly sweep them out of the dock, and Cheng Jian will have nothing to say.

No matter how you say it, Cheng Jian is just a plainclothes, now that Liu Fu has retired, and the Dongguan Gang is showing weakness, I just don't want to make trouble, it's not that I'm afraid of him in plainclothes. ”

Xi Wei nodded: "I know Brother An!" So where is Kou Hongsheng? ”

"Just wait! Now there are less than a hundred coolies under Kou Hongsheng's hands, and with such a small number of people, the cargo of a freighter cannot be handled, and the delay of the morning is delayed, presumably the shipowner manager should also be in a hurry. ”

Ang Lee is confident.

"Kou Hongsheng, what's the matter with you? The freighter is leaving the port tonight, but you see, in the morning, half of the cargo on board has not been unloaded! The goods that the factory owners need to carry on the ship are all piled up on the docks, and if you continue to do this, my ship will not expect to leave the port today! ”

It was a middle-aged man with a Mediterranean hairstyle and black-rimmed glasses who spoke. His face was not good, he pointed to the goods piled up on the dock, and spat at Kou Hongsheng!

"I'm sorry, Manager Zhang. Something went wrong today, and there were not enough people, so you should take care of it a little longer. ”

Kou Hongsheng quietly took a small step back, avoiding the splash of spittle, and smiled with a smile on his face.

As he spoke, he took out a few 100 Hong Kong dollars and stuffed them into the pocket of the other party's jacket.

"You also know who I am, Manager Zhang, help, there will definitely not be such a thing next time."

The middle-aged man known as Manager Zhang took out the money and slapped it back into Kou Hongsheng's hand. didn't give him face at all, and said directly:

"It's not me who helps, it's you who help, and I'm going to eat too. If the voyage is delayed, our company's loss will be great, how can you let me explain to my boss?

You need time, right? I can give you a few more hours. If you don't have enough time, then you'll be given a grace until the early hours of the morning, which is interesting enough. Then tell me, before the wee hours of the morning, can you handle these two ships of cargo? ”

Although Kou Hongsheng wanted to say yes, it was obvious that the hundreds of coolies under his hands, let alone working until the early hours of the morning, were enough to choke until dawn.

And those coolies can't bear it.

He opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Manager Zhang.

"Alright, you don't have to talk about it. Everyone is eating at the dock, I don't need you to tell me that I know the result, how can this be possible?

Like you foremen, to put it bluntly, you need someone under your hands to work, but look at you now, there are no two coolies under your hands, I just can't handle your time! What's more, it's not just these two freighters, there are also tomorrow's freighters, the day after tomorrow, I just want to help you, do you think I can afford it? ”

He arched his hand, and without waiting for Kou Hongsheng to speak again, he left directly with his sleeves.

"Hey! Manager Zhang"

On the side, the chicken foot black opened his mouth and was about to call Manager Zhang, but was stopped by Kou Hongsheng reaching out.

The chicken feet and black eyes sent the other party to Li An's side, and said in a low voice:

"I'm sorry, Brother Sheng, I didn't expect Ang Li to play this hand with us."

In the past two days, he has also followed the advice of his boss to be vigilant at all times, and has been paying attention to Ang Lee's movements.

In his mind, everyone is vying for territory, isn't it all about showing the carriage and horses, dividing the winners and losers, and then talking about the numbers, the losers give up the territory, and then the black hands, after all, these are the processes.

But he didn't expect that the other party would play a trick with them, and make a whole show of salary drawdown, directly leaving no one to work.

To put it bluntly, the shipowner manager is responsible for the shipping company's shipping agency business, and the main job is to ensure the accurate transportation and smooth delivery of the ship's cargo.

As a shipowner manager who has been dealing with foremen and factory owners on the dock for a long time, how could Zhang Yan not have any eyesight.

What's more, he has seen the open and secret battles on the dock these days, at the No. 6 cargo terminal, Li An has occupied eight of the ten berths, and how can Li An let go of the remaining two berths?

Now that Kou Hongsheng has made a mistake himself, he doesn't have to think about it to know that it was Li An's hand.

The steamship company is a serious business, and the boss is also a figure with a head and a face, and it is the consensus of all shipowners and managers not to get involved in the community struggle on the dock and not to ruin the company's reputation.

In a word, whoever the job is to do, as long as you don't miss the company's business!

With the few poor coolies under Kou Hongsheng's hands, it is clear that it is impossible for the cargo ships managed by Zhang Yan to deliver goods normally for several days.

Naturally, he can't afford to delay the right thing because of his previous cooperation.

"Hello, I'm looking for Ang Lee?"

"I am, what's the matter?"

Li An glanced at the middle-aged man dressed in Sven in front of him and asked.

"I'm Zhang Yan, the shipowner manager of Yifeng Shipping Company, and I have something to talk to you about."

Zhang Yan said with a smile.

He looked at Li An in surprise, a little surprised by the other party's youth.

"Hello, Manager Zhang."

Li Anxin knew it and stretched out his hand.

The two briefly shook hands.

Time was pressing, and Zhang Yan didn't mean to say hello, so he said straight to the point:

"No. 60, the work of berth 61, I don't know if you are interested?"

"If you have money to make, you must be interested."

After a pause, Li An said again: "But I remember the work of those two berths, your company should have been handed over to Kou Hongsheng of He Shengyi?" ”

Zhang Yan knew Ang Lee's temptation, and he said with a smile:

"Kou Hongsheng has few coolies under his hands now, and he can't deliver the cargo on the cargo ship on time, so naturally it is impossible to continue to do it for him. And you're the biggest foreman at Terminal 6, so I'm going to ask you first.

Of course, I have the conditions to not delay the departure of the cargo ship, so that I can also make a difference. ”

Ang Lee thought for a moment and asked:

"After the morning has passed, and there are only five minutes before the workers finish work, how much cargo does Manager Zhang's two cargo ships still need to be loaded and unloaded?"

"A third of the cargo was unloaded, and the loaded cargo was stacked on the dock."

"That's fine. However, there may be a delay of an hour or two. ”

Li An looked at Zhang Yan: "It depends on whether Manager Zhang can accept it." ”

Zhang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled heartily:

"Naturally, we can accept it, or let's go over and have a look first."

"Okay!"

Ang Lee nodded in agreement.

I explained to Xi Wei again.

"I'll go first, and you can arrange for three hundred coolies to come over."

"Got it, Brother An." Xi Wei hurriedly responded, his face excited.

"Let's go, then."

Zhang stretched his hand to signal.

After a while, the two came to berth 61 side by side.

The busy coolies had long since stopped, and the expression on their faces was a little worried, and they gathered together in twos and threes and whispered and discussed.

Kou Hongsheng's face was expressionless, but the chicken foot black standing behind him had a fierce look on his face when he saw Li An.

Zhang Yan changed a pair of front holes and walked to Kou Hongsheng.

"In the future, the unloading of cargo ships at these two berths of our company will be handed over to Ang Lee. Kou Hongsheng, you give me the bill, how many tons of goods have been unloaded, I will give you a lot of money. ”

When his words landed, the black chicken feet could no longer hold back, glared at him viciously, turned his head to look at Li An, and put on a fierce face.

"Ang Li, you are breaking the rules!"

"You talk about the rules."

Li An suddenly interrupted the words of the chicken foot black. smiled at the black chicken feet, and the whole person was much sharper.

"What are rules? Is it the rule for foremen to exploit coolies? Is it the rule for the community to oppress ordinary people? Or is it the rule for bad guys to collect rules? Fart! I'm telling you, big fists are the rule! ”

The chicken's feet were black and the neck was stalked: "Then if you have the ability, you can show the carriage and horse!" ”

"Show me the carriage and horses? Do you have what it takes? Have you asked the big guy? Don't you want to do business with Shengyi? Ang Lee's tone was rebellious.

What he said was very unkind, which made Kou Hongsheng on the side frown.

"You!"

"Shut up!"

Kou Hongsheng scolded, ignoring the black and unwilling eyes of the chicken feet, and said calmly:

"Ang Lee, I can quit the dock, and the foreman's business can be given to you. But you can't ruin my other business on the docks. ”

Ang Lee naturally knew what he meant.

Glance at the mouth without care:

"Other business? Human snake, or smuggling? I don't take advantage of the wrong things. And this kind of illegal thing is not under my control, this is something that the bad guy should worry about! ”
