Chapter 124: Trade-offs, gifts

Ang Lee is telling the truth.

During the day, the wharf is called at the port by normal freighters running the ocean, and in the early morning there are some small ships that do smuggling and human snakes.

Even Liangongle, who had a conflict with Sanjiangshui before, still did the human snake business on the dock as before, and Li Ang knew this.

Ang Lee's principle has always been that the well water does not interfere with the river water.

The bad guy doesn't care about things, how can he have the heart of leisure.

The foreman is doing daytime work, and he has already finished work and slept in the early morning, as long as the other party is not boring, Li An will naturally be invisible.

Kou Hongsheng was silent for a while, and then said dryly:

"From today onwards, we and Shengyi's people will not come to your territory to make trouble."

"Thank you then." Ang Lee's tone was flat.

Zhang Yan, who was standing on the side, was also relieved to see that the two had negotiated.

His top priority now is to solve the problem of loading and unloading cargo and let the ship leave the port normally, because he does not want the two sides to have a conflict and become a complication.

Zhang Yan had a smile on his face and said politely: "Kou Hongsheng, you give me the bill, and I will give you the payment now." ”

"No need."

Kou Hongsheng waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Yan.

"There aren't many goods, you can settle it with Ang Lee."

After speaking, he looked at Ang Lee:

"As for the wages of these coolies? They'll continue to work on the docks anyway, right? ”

"That's nature." Li An responded lightly.

"Let's go!"

Kou Hongsheng took a deep breath, but simply, without saying anything, he greeted and turned to leave.

It's just that there is inevitably some embarrassment on his face.

There are talents in the rivers and lakes!

Although judging from the conflict between Changle Club and Ang Lee, judging from the strong means that Ang Lee has always shown, Kou Hongsheng expected such a day, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

But when he, the boss of the club who has been in the mix for more than ten years, was really forced to withdraw from the dock in embarrassment by a young man, Kou Hongsheng was still a little depressed in his heart.

"Let's go! What are you doing here! ”

Chicken foot black turned his head and shouted angrily at his subordinate Sijiu who was standing aside, glared at Li An unwillingly, and followed Kou Hongsheng.

"Brother An!"

At this time, Xi Wei also walked over with three hundred coolies with an excited face, and staggered with the unwilling chicken feet black.

When Zhang Yan saw the coolies coming over, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his face was full of smiles: "Then please leave it to you." ”

"Manager Zhang's words are too foreign, and we will rely on you in the future." Ang Lee said politely.

"You're welcome!"

Manager Zhang was obviously very useful, at least the young man in front of him treated him very politely, and he was not as unruly as he was when he faced Kou Hongsheng just now.

"You go and arrange for the workers to do things."

After sending Zhang Yan away, Ang Li explained to Xi Wei.

Glancing at the coolies who had gathered together with Kou Hongsheng leaving, with a worried face, he said:

"Also, these people will also arrange it."

"Okay." Xi Wei nodded yes.

Dawei and Wu Shihao came to the dock together, and the two of them carried the packed meals in their hands.

Putting together the two long wooden tables on the dock and setting the meal, Dawei shouted:

"Brother An, it's time to eat."

Ang Lee walked over and glanced at the dishes on the table.

A few small snacks, roasted meat, beef brisket, shredded potatoes with green peppers, stir-fried baby greens

The color is rich and the fragrance is tangy.

"It's hearty."

"I bought it at the Hutchison Restaurant where we ate last time, and his house tasted pretty good." Dawei handed over the dishes and chopsticks.

"Sit down."

Li An beckoned Li Jianjun to sit down, and said:

"Dawei, you go to berth 61 and call your brother to come over for dinner."

"Oh, good."

"Kou Hongsheng's territory was won so quickly." Wu Shihao was a little surprised, he didn't show the carriage and horses, he thought that the other party would struggle.

The people didn't sit down, and Ang Lee was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, he picked up a piece of butterfly cake and laughed:

"The shipowner's manager is anxious, can he not be happy. Kou Hongsheng is a smart person, and he puts a lot of Hong Kong money in his pocket every day, so naturally it is impossible to dare to fight and fight like those little Sijiu who just want to fight for his position! ”

Xiao Sijiu, who has just joined the club, dares to fight and fight, that is to fight for wealth and prosperity!

The club boss has something to do is to drink tea and talk about numbers, that is called talking about the rules of the rivers and lakes, judging the situation!

Relatively, it also confirms that "the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are!" This sentence.

People are the same, once they learn to judge the situation, they will naturally have more concerns.

After a pause, Li An said with a smile: "To put it bluntly, these club bosses have long passed the stage of fighting for their lives, just like Kou Hongsheng, making money is the first thing for them." If something happens, the first thing they think about is to judge the situation, how to make trade-offs, and whether it is worth it.

You must know that it is always this kind of smart person who is in charge of the club, the kind of four-nine with a tendon, in fact, the most unpromising in the club, because as soon as they enter the club, they have already reached the end, even if they are lucky not to be on the street, they are a red stick in the end. But the red stick is still just a beater. ”

"Oh, I see."

Wu Shihao pondered Ang Lee's words thoughtfully.

Although Ang Lee is younger than him, since he has been working with Ang Lee, he feels that he has also learned a lot of things from him.

Li An put the butterfly cake in his mouth, as if he remembered something, and asked:

"By the way, as Xi Wei said earlier, there is a shipowner manager looking for you, is the matter over?"

"I'm done." Wu Shihao nodded.

"Then you will help on the dock, Kou Hongsheng's territory has just been taken, and the shipowner manager is in a hurry to load the goods, and Xiwei is alone to take care of it, so it is inevitable that he will be a little in a hurry. I have something to do in the afternoon, so I'll go first. ”

"No problem, if you have something to do, go and get busy first."

Wu Shihao hurriedly said.

The two chatted for a while, and the two Dawei brothers also came over.

As they sat around the table, Ang Lee greeted him.

"Come, eat."

"Wow, how do you have time for me?"

Seeing Li An coming, Sanjiangshui joked with an exaggerated expression.

Li An smiled and pulled a stool to sit opposite the three rivers.

"Senior brother, have you eaten?"

Sanjiangshui took the teapot and made a cup of herbal tea for Li An, and his tone was teasing:

"What? Took Kou Hongsheng's territory, thinking about inviting me to a meal? ”

Ang Lee glanced at his mouth:

"It should be right for you to invite me to dinner, you sit up and divide the money directly. I'm miserable, and I'm going to have to worry about this and that on the docks. ”

Sanjiangshui recalls the old story: "What I told you last time, how did you think about it?" Before, it was one or two berths, and there wasn't much money, so it didn't matter. But now you're fighting your own life and death with such a big stall, my share"

"Stop! Don't talk about it anymore. ”

Li An opened his mouth to interrupt the three rivers.

Twenty percent of the money earned by the No. 6 cargo terminal is distributed by Wu Shihao and them, and it is also their hard-earned money for taking care of the terminal. The remaining eighty percent are one person and four percent of Sanjiangshui.

Li An also knew what his senior brother meant, and didn't want to take advantage of him, so he had told him about this matter several times before.

But sometimes, people can't be narrow-minded and attach too much importance to immediate interests.

Although Sanjiangshui rarely worries about things on the wharf over there, it is undeniable that Li An can gain a firm foothold on the wharf, and Sanjiangshui has contributed a lot.

There is also a broker's business, which is also generous to share with him. was worried that he would suffer at the dock, so he arranged Hou Shijie to help him.

The friendship between the brothers and sisters alone is far from being measured by this little money.

And Zhou Sheng

Sometimes, Ang Lee is also glad that he can learn boxing with the first-line sky, so that he can gain a pure brotherhood when he is alone.

"Alright, alright."

Seeing Li An's serious face, Sanjiangshui had no choice but to give up.

He took a sip of tea: "Say, you're so busy now, what's the matter with me?" ”

"Zhou was promoted to Detective, his Uncle Chang specially arranged a promotion banquet for him, he told me about it the day before yesterday, let me tell you by the way. You arrange things on the docks, and we'll go over. ”

"Aren't the promotion banquets all night? It's only noon, why are we going so early? ”

"Of course, I'm going to buy some gifts! The two of us and him are also brothers, so naturally we have to support the field, if we go empty-handed, won't we be looked down upon by those who come to celebrate? ”

"That's right." Sanjiangshui nodded: "Then you wait a minute." ”

With that, get up and leave the pergola.

After just two cups of tea, Sanjiangshui turned back: "Let's go." ”

At eight o'clock in the evening, night falls.

Boundary Street, Fu Lin Men Restaurant.

"Didi~"

As the streets grind shoulder to shoulder, a brand-new black Ford sedan slowly pulls in and stops at the door.

Li An, who was dressed in a suit, pushed the car door and got out of the car.

Sanjiangshui then got out of the passenger seat and walked around the front of the car to him.

"I thought you were bragging at the car shop, but I didn't expect you to drive?"

"You're not underestimating me. Isn't it all a car that can be driven by getting started? Do you still need to learn such a simple thing? ”

Ang Lee replied nonchalantly.

Seeing that Sanjiangshui was a little surprised, he seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, you can't do this?" Why don't I teach you someday? ”

Sanjiangshui slapped him and said stiffly:

"you! Do I still use you to teach? The car is given to me, and I don't drive the same. ”

Li An took half a step back lightly, and said in his mouth: "Okay, the car money will be deducted from your share." Thirty-eight thousand! Make up a whole number for you, and I'll count you as 20,000. ”

"And you round it up like that? Meaning I want more, right? ”

Sanjiangshui glanced at his mouth, looked back at the brand-new car, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Send the car! Not to mention, it's a bit ingenious. ”

"That's nature, how old-fashioned it is to send gold! People rely on clothes and horses with saddles, Zhou Sheng is not big or small, but he is also a detective, and he can't say anything if he doesn't have a car, so he can match his identity as a detective if he gives him one. ”

After a pause, Li An said with a smile on his face: "Senior brother, on the day you and your sister-in-law get married, I promise to give you a more luxurious one, which must be worthy of your identity, senior brother." ”

"I'll forget it, you better buy one yourself."

Sanjiang sighed and walked towards the restaurant.

"Upstairs please!" A waiter stretched out his hand to signal.

When you come to the second floor, you will find a large space with a luxurious style, with Chinese and Western styles, and the gorgeous crystal chandeliers on the ceiling reflect colorful lights.

The hall was full of friends, and there was a staggered noise!

Zhou Sheng, who was entertaining guests, put down his wine glass, whispered a few words to the middle-aged man in a straight suit beside him, and walked over quickly.

"Senior brother, A'an, you're here."

He glanced at Ang Li up and down, and quipped: "I didn't expect you to be so beautiful in this dress." ”

Ang Lee pretended to be dissatisfied: "Wow, I'm not pretty one day!" ”

"I'm sorry, senior brother said the wrong thing, and he will punish himself with three cups." Zhou Sheng laughed.

"That's pretty much it."

Li An nodded with satisfaction, took out the car keys from his pocket and slapped them in Zhou Sheng's hand.

"My brother and I sent you, and the car was parked outside the restaurant."

"It's coming, it's coming, why do you need to spend so much?"

Zhou Sheng's face was suddenly a little dissatisfied, and he stretched out his hand to prepare to return it.

Sanjiangshui pushed his hand back, and his tone was displeased:

"Okay, a little gift, I'll take it for you."

"Okay." Zhou Sheng glanced at the two of them, and saw that he couldn't excuse himself, so he had to put them away.

Sanjiangshui's face softened a lot: "That's right." ”

"Inspector Zhou, hello!"

A voice that couldn't hide the amorous came over.

The sound of high heels is from far and near, Hua Man is wearing an embroidered black rose dress and stepping on a pair of black high heels, sexy and enchanting.

She stepped forward with a spring breeze on her face and handed over the pure gold Pixiu wrapped in a glass gift box in her hand.

"Congratulations, this is a gift for you!"

After speaking, Yu Guang suddenly saw Li An on the side, and she was obviously stunned for a moment.

Turning his head and staring at Li An, he seemed to remember something shy, and a big flush rose on his face!

Zhou Sheng and San Jiangshui saw this scene and stared at the two of them suspiciously.

"Ahem!"

Li An coughed twice: "Miss Huaman, hello." ”

The blush on Hua Man's face faded in a blink of an eye, and he said in a calm tone, "Hello." ”

"Then I'll thank you. Miss Hua Man, please sit inside, forgive me for being inconsiderate. ”

Zhou Sheng quietly accepted the gift.

If it had been before, a ballroom owner, he might not have been so polite. But now seeing the expressions of Hua Man and his junior brother, he always felt that there seemed to be something greasy between the two, and his tone couldn't help but be much more polite.

"You're welcome, Inspector Zhou is busy first."

Hua Man glanced at Li An, and didn't seem to have any intention of talking to Li An, and walked towards the table next to him alone.

Zhou Sheng opened his mouth to ask something, and Li An took the gift in his hand.

Facing the guest who came over with gold ornaments, he pouted, and said:

"Brother Sheng, where to put the gifts, I'll help you put them away, you entertain the guests first."

Not in a hurry to ask, Zhou Shengchong pointed to his right hand.

"Over there."

"Okay."

Ang Lee turned to leave.

Sanjiangshui followed behind him: "Hey, A'an." Didn't we know this Hua Man when we watched the boxing match that day, what's the matter with the two of you? ”

Li An's face was stunned, but he still said quietly: "What's going on?" ”

"You are blind to me, this woman looks at you and thinks I don't see it."

Sanjiang water chattered in the back.

Ang Lee put the gift in his hand, pointed to the gold ornaments piled up on the table, and opened the topic:

"Senior brother, look at these gold ornaments! It's no wonder that everyone is thinking about being a detective, and the gifts received at any banquet can be opened. ”
