Chapter 9: Problems
"Ding! The host has a new quest to claim, so please check it out. ”
When Ye Tianyun was standing outside the private room and waiting, the voice of the system suddenly came out in his head, almost scaring him.
Taking advantage of this free opportunity, Ye Tianyun simply concentrated in his heart and entered the system through his spiritual power.
"What's my new mission?"
"The current host has a main quest: 'Emergent' can be claimed. Mission conditions: With his own ability, the host will show his edge on the road of Yuzhou City, accumulate some fame, and lay a good foundation for the future of mixing in the rivers and lakes. The degree of fame will be automatically assessed by the system, and the host will be automatically reminded to complete the task if it meets the requirements. Do you want to pick it up? ”
Ye Tianyun shrugged his shoulders, now, if he wants to continue to move towards the godfather's goal, can he have any other choice?
"Pick it up. ”
Ye Tianyun said.
"Claim successful. ”
At this moment, Mr. Yuan Qian Yuan had already walked out of the private room, thinking that he had finished discussing something with Yu Zhanlong.
Yuan Qian hugged his fists towards Ye Qianyun and said, "The things that Yu Tang mainly explained have already been explained to me. Now I will take you to Jinhua Street, so that you can familiarize yourself with the situation over there. From now on, you'll be able to take care of that place..."
Ye Tianyun also arched his hand and said with a smile: "Then I will bother Mr. Yuan to lead me away." ”
Yuan Qian still looked polite and humble, and after saying 'please', he walked in front first.
The long street of Jinhua was not far from where they were, and Yuan Qian called a carriage, and it took about a cup of tea to arrive.
After Mr. Yuan's narration all the way, Ye Tianyun learned that Jinhua Long Street is a commercial street located in the southeast of Yuzhou City. At the same time, it is also the boundary area of Yu Zhanlong's territory, which is adjacent to the territory of the owner of Dongtangtang 'Xia Yuanxiong' to the east, mainly relying on the operation of several underground gambling halls and restaurants, as well as regularly collecting money from surrounding shops.
In Ye Tianyun's view, most of these so-called gangs are the same, and the way to make profits is often very simple. By operating some high-profit and profiteering industries, as well as collecting protection fees and other channels, you can easily make a lot of money.
Why do so many people choose to mingle with gangs? In many cases, they take a fancy to this.
However, people like Ye Tianyun who came from the bottom of the gang naturally knew that these so-called huge profits were just benefits owned by the top of the gang. Most of the gangsters who are rolling at the bottom can only share a bowl of clear soup while others eat meat. Want to try the meat? Just think about it.
"This is one of our brothers, Liang San, just call him Ah San. He has been following Hall Master Yu for some days, and these days Jinhua Street has not found anyone to take care of it, and Ah San is responsible for watching. In the future, let him follow you, and if you have any questions or instructions, you can ask Ah San for help. ”
Yuan Qian called a man in his thirties and introduced him to Ye Qianyun.
The man named Liang San nodded flatteringly at Ye Tianyun, and when he saw that it was Mr. Yuan who brought him, he didn't dare to slack off at all: "This boss, from now on, if you have anything to order." I, Liang San, will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire. ”
Ye Qianyun nodded and smiled: "My name is Ye Qianyun." ”
"It's... Be... Boss Ye. Liang San nodded repeatedly.
"If nothing else, I'll take my leave. If there is anything you don't understand, just ask Ah San, this territory will be handed over to you in the future. ”
After Yuan Qian explained the matter clearly, he got into the carriage and left, leaving Liang San and Ye Tianyun behind.
"Boss Ye, you are new to the city, and you haven't found a place to settle yet, right? We have a small branch in the South Hall not far from here, because no one has been sent to take over before, so it has been empty for a while, but I have always sent someone to take care of it, and it is clean! If you don't mind, just go there with me!"
Liang San bowed slightly, and a flattering smile still hung on his face, and said.
"Let's go, then. Ye Tianyun waved his hand and said.
The branch hall mentioned by Liang San is actually a small courtyard similar to the courtyard house in the previous life. Because Liang San has been cleaning regularly for a long time, it also looks clean and comfortable, without those old and mildew smells.
There are several houses in the small courtyard, which contain the assembly hall, the account room, the house, and other facilities that should be used at the entrance of the hall.
After Ye Tianyun chose a room of his own, he immediately came to the council hall, sat on the main seat, and instructed Liang San: "Since I have taken over the management of Jinhua Street, you can call all the brothers here and get to know each other! Also, bring me the list of the entire Jinhua Street that belongs to our Huya Gang, including the account books." I need to get a good idea of how the industry is doing on my turf. ”
After Liang San heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, this young boy had just arrived here, and he had even begun to tell himself to do things before his ass was hot. Moreover, looking at that serious look, it is not as simple as a walk-around formality.
It seems that what can be looked down upon by the Yu Hall Master is not a simple and foolish guy......
However, even so, his emotions still did not fluctuate in the slightest, and after smiling slightly, he agreed to retreat.
About half an hour later, many people gathered in the meeting hall one after another, Ye Tianyun roughly clicked, there were about thirty or forty people.
"Boss Ye, these are the brothers in our gang, and they work hard under the ground on weekdays...... Liang San pointed to the crowd in front of him and leaned into Ye Qianyun's ear and said.
Then, he said to the people in front of him: "Listen, this is Boss Ye, it was Master Yu who was specially ordered to come to manage Jinhua Street, what are the leaders, why do you have to listen to Boss Ye in the future, do you know?"
"Got it!"
Everyone responded at the same time, and at the same time, with curious eyes, looked at the new boss sitting in the upper seat.
Of course, there are also some people who wonder in their hearts, is this kid who looks like he is not even twenty years old really capable of sitting in this position?
Ye Qianyun, who was on the main seat, stood up at this time, arched his hand to everyone, and said, "Everyone, in the future, we will be brothers who stand on the same boat and are in the same boat through thick and thin." When I first arrived, there were a lot of things I wasn't familiar with. You are all old people in the gang, and if there is anything I don't understand in the future, please give me advice.
I, Ye Qianyun, don't dare to brag about the great conch and say anything glory and wealth to you, but I promise that from now on, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will never let any of you starve. As long as you do things for me wholeheartedly, I will never treat any of you badly!"
When the gang heard this, their eyes suddenly flashed, and when they heard the boss's solemn words, they showed a little emotion. They have been in the gang for so long, and it is the first time they have seen such a boss, willing to lower his value and talk to them in such an approachable manner. Besides, he is still favored by the Lord of the Yu Hall.....
"Boss Ye. With your words, my Ma Chao will follow you. ”
A man with a relatively hot personality said first.
Then the rest of the people followed suit.
"So do I, Chen Dayuan. ”
"Me ...... too"
“......”
Seeing this, Ye Tianyun immediately nodded with satisfaction.
He knows very well the temperament of these gangsters. These guys are usually more strong-blooded, and they are especially sensitive to some motivational words, especially those from those in higher positions. As long as the value is lowered a little and the attitude is more friendly, it is simply the easiest to fool these people.
Ye Tianyun stretched out his hand to make a low movement, signaling everyone to stop talking, and immediately, he became much more serious.
He picked up the account book brought by Liang San and took a cursory look, and found that their income in Jinhua Street for nearly half a year was extremely miserable. For several months, the income was only a hundred or dozens of taels of silver, which was far less than the income of an ordinary shop.
Even, there are two months of income, which is directly negative...
This made Ye Tianyun's expression solemn.
Jinhua Street is located in the southeast of Yuzhou City, and the degree of commercial development is not very good, but it is not so bleak in any way. According to Ye Tianyun's understanding, even if the protection fee of those stores is collected on time every month, it is much better than such an income.
"What's going on?" Ye Tianyun shook the account book and asked Liang San beside him.
For a long time before, Liang San was basically temporarily managing Jinhua Street, so it was naturally impossible not to know the reason.
When Liang San heard this, he smiled awkwardly, but he seemed a little embarrassed.
"Say it quickly. ”
Ye Tianyun ordered.
Liang San nodded, and in desperation, he had no choice but to tell the original reason 1510.
After listening to Liang San's narration, Ye Tianyun knew that the reason why Jinhua Street was in such a situation was because of the internal contradictions of the gang.
Jinhua Street is the boundary location of the South Hall of the Huya Gang, and is close to the "Changfu Street" under the East Hall.
Because the relationship between Xia Yuanxiong, the owner of the East Hall, and Yu Zhanlong, the owner of the South Hall, has never been very good, the Changfu Street under his management often exerts pressure on Jinhua Street in terms of industrial management, and uses various means to squeeze the latter, thus forming the current situation.
According to Liang San, the people of Dongtang would go to Jinhua Street every once in a while to make trouble, smash the restaurants and shops they managed, and blast away the customers. Even, the heads of some of the industries under them have been bought by the people of the East Hall, secretly transferring all the profits to the East Hall, and quietly corrupting the industries under the owners of the Yu Hall.
Even the right that should have been used by them to collect money from other shops, that is, the qualification to collect protection money, was overbearingly seized by the people of Dongtang.
Although Yu and Xia belong to the same gang, there are still many dragons and tigers fighting between them, whether they are bright or dark.
"Could it be that for most of the past half a year, Hall Master Yu has been completely ignorant of the situation on Jinhua Street?" Ye Tianyun touched his nose and asked.
Liang San said with a smile: "Hall Master Yu is discerning, his eyes are like torches, and he naturally sees all this in his eyes.
However, Hall Master Yu put the overall situation first and didn't want to get into trouble with Hall Master Xia, so he opened one eye and closed one eye, and chose to forbear......"
Hearing this, Ye Tianyun looked like 'so it was' and nodded slightly.
At the same time, he sighed inwardly.
It seems that Yu Zhanlong asked me to sit in this position on purpose to give me a problem......
