Chapter 34: The Passing Teahouse
At that moment, he cautiously sat on half of his buttocks, looked at Ran Huanyu respectfully, and waited for the guest's inquiry without saying a word.
Seeing that Xiao Er was so good, Ran Huanyu took the initiative to pour him a cup of tea. Then he asked in a low voice: "Brother, I heard that the Zhou family in Kunming Mansion is huge, and I am very interested in it, can I trouble you to introduce one or two?"
As soon as Xiao Er heard the news that he was inquiring about the Zhou family in Kunming Mansion, he was suffocated, and looked around in a panic. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he was slightly relieved.
He said softly: "When you ask questions, you dare not say anything." But please keep it a secret for the villain, the villain still has to eat with a good head!"
Ran Huanyu smiled calmly: "Little brother, please rest assured, we are passers-by when we get out of this teahouse!"
deliberately bit the word "passerby" quite hard.
Seeing that the distinguished guest in front of him understood the true meaning of naming "Passerby Teahouse" as "Passerby", Xiao Er's heart was slightly relieved, and he said in a low voice: "The Zhou family's power is second to none in Kunming Mansion, and there are many operating industries, mainly including casinos, big smoke houses, martial arts halls, hotels, tea houses, jewelry stores, rice shops, cloth shops, horse shops, vegetable markets, etc., which can be described as a big business. ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Er glanced around quickly again, and then continued: "The head of the family, Zhou Daolong, there are three younger brothers below, named Zhou Daohu, Zhou Daobao, and Zhou Daowolf. The four of them are all top martial arts masters, ruthless and extremely protective. There is a saying in the Kunming martial arts world about the Zhou family, that is, 'small hatred is not for months, and big hatred is not for every other year'. It can be said that there will be revenge and revenge!"
Taking a sip of tea, Xiao Er continued: "With the connivance of the four brothers of Zhou Daolong, the children of the Zhou family are also all flying and domineering, rampant in Kunming Mansion, often bullying men and women, and often bullying and dominating the market. As a result, whether it is the government, businessmen, or ordinary people, Kunming Mansion is full of complaints, but there is nothing to be done. ”
Xiao Er stopped for a moment, looked around for a while, and then said in a low voice: "The Zhou family also has more than 30 martial artists in the nursing home, all of whom have good skills. In fact, if the Zhou family is as evil as the Zhou family, where does it need to protect what kind of hospital? Who dares to come to the door to find death? To put it bluntly, they are the thugs they raise! In addition, the Zhou family also has more than 400 family members, all of whom are outlaws, and they are an armed force. Because of its great power and vicious behavior, most of the martial arts circles in Kunming are the only ones in the Zhou family. Therefore, the Zhou family is in Kunming Mansion, and it is actually the existence of the emperor of the soil. ”
Seeing that Ran Huanyu and the three of them listened with relish, Xiao Er was also chatting, and took another sip of tea, and continued: "In the Kunming martial arts world, only the decent Liu family makes them a little jealous. The two families have always been governed by the well water without violating the river water and demarcating the border. Our teahouse belongs to the territory of the Liu family. But the Liu family has always been low-key, and rarely fights with others, so Kunming Mansion is basically the Zhou family now. ”
Seeing that Xiao Er was silent, Ran Huanyu knew that the tea was not finished and the words were dry, so he stuffed one or two pieces of silver and sent Xiao Er away happily.
After listening to Xiao Er's detailed introduction, Ran Huanyu and the three of them fell into deep thought.
At this point, they also have an intuitive understanding of the Zhou family. To sum it up, it can be vividly summed up in one sentence, that is, "The tiger's ass can't be touched!"
However, Ren Yong not only wantonly touched the tiger's buttocks, but also slapped the tiger with a loud slap.
This enmity has already been settled in stone! There is no possibility of escaping the circle.
But they are fearless, and they have no regrets!
Now that they know that the Zhou family's power is huge, if they encounter the unscrupulous things by the Dianchi Lake before, they will still punish them without hesitation.
This is called "do something, do something!"
It's called a manly man!
In Hua Feng's opinion, since he has already touched the ass of the tiger of the Zhou family, he will simply be afraid and tamed this tiger!
In this way, the danger of being bitten by it will be completely lifted!
......
Over there, Meng Qi's group asked the relevant news of the "Kunming Martial Arts Rookie Martial Arts Seminar" in the same way.
After summarizing and analyzing, Meng Qi, Xiao Yun, and Ren Yong came to a reliable inference that the Zhou family was keen to hold this kind of discussion for three purposes: first, to be a rising star on the Internet, second, to show the Zhou family's muscles, and third, to eliminate and crack down on dissidents.
The seminar is held every year by the Zhou family in Kunming Prefecture, and the time is in mid-February, when the climate is suitable.
Regardless of whether they are local people in Kunming Prefecture or not, those who hold the invitation card issued by the Zhou family in Kunming Prefecture can attend the meeting free of charge.
Otherwise, you will need to pay a certain entrance fee.
The seminar was divided into two parts: martial arts discussion and martial arts competition.
The martial arts seminar was mainly held by the Zhou family, and the martial arts competition was the highlight of the seminar. It is divided into internal force, palm method, fist method, light skill, knife method, sword method, stick method, marksmanship, hidden weapon, poison, healing, formation and other competitions.
Participants must be young people under the age of 30, and each participant can participate in more than one entry.
The winner of each competition will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver, and can enter the Zhoujia casino to gamble for a day, and the casino will provide 10,000 chips free of charge.
In addition to the above prizes, the first place winner in the overall competition will also receive an additional reward - that is, a mysterious fire paint seal bag.
Inside the fire paint seal bag, it is said that there is a big secret hidden that even the Zhou family itself does not know!
......
Thinking about it deeply, the Zhou family held a symposium, which seemed to have a lot of money on the surface, but in fact, it was a lot of money.
Its earnings mainly come from three aspects.
First, there are many martial arts competitions, dozens or hundreds of them, which will definitely attract many martial arts enthusiasts to enter and observe. This entrance fee alone can charge a lot of silver taels.
Second, the first place in each competition enters the casino, and more than a dozen people can drive many good gamblers to follow. It can not only charge a lot of entrance fees, but also lure them to take a chance, and also increase the popularity of Zhoujia Casino.
Third, every year, the seminar can network some outstanding people to join the Zhou family's martial arts team, so that the Zhou family's power continues to grow.
Trade-off!
This is also the fundamental reason why the Zhou family has been dominant in Kunming for decades.
Meng Qi and the three of them figured out this section, and couldn't help but secretly praise: What a Kunming Zhou family, it's really a good calculation!
......
At this time, the "passerby teahouse" is already full of guests.
The central topic that the guests talked about, as expected, was the two that Hua Feng and others inquired about: one was that Zhou Lingxiong, the eldest young master of the Zhou family, was accidentally deflated in Dianchi Lake, and the other was the "Kunming Martial Arts Rookie Martial Arts Seminar".
According to the summary of the tea guests' discussions, in order to recover the lost field in Dianchi Lake, Zhou Lingxiong, under the instruction of his father Zhou Daolong, changed the norm and invited young masters to participate in the meeting in the name of the Zhou family.
