Chapter 177 Everything Is Just a Matter of Strength! [Subscribe]
evening
Pier Restaurant
Wei Hong, Fan Tai, and Xie Laosan gathered together again. It had only been half a month since the last time they had a drink, but the three of them felt like they had been separated from each other because so many things had happened during this period. matter.
Xie Laosan is fine, but he looks a little haggard!
Fan Tai's arms were tied with cloth strips, and he had obviously suffered serious injuries.
"Brother Fan, what are you doing?" Wei Hong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it possible that your Hutou Gang also rushed to the front in the battle for the inheritance?"
"No, this is unlucky!" Fan Tai cursed angrily: "Prince Duan's Mansion has always secretly supported the prince. Although they did not send personal guards to assist in this attack, most of the dead soldiers and us street people secretly We sent out all the troops, and less than half of our Hutou Gang were killed or injured. I was almost killed by a knife!"
"You are also a good fortune teller." Xie Laosan smiled and joked: "This time the chief steward has personally taken action, and you don't know how to hide. If you don't die one night, it will be regarded as your ancestors burning incense!"
"You mean the general manager of the Xiantian Realm?" Fan Tai secretly smacked his tongue, and then started to complain with a bitter look on his face.
It was nothing more than the number of people he had died, and several of his treasuries had suffered serious attrition, which would not be relieved in three to five years.
Wei Hong couldn't help but sigh secretly!
This time, the number of casualties in Shendu may exceed 200,000 to 300,000. In Tianbao Lane alone, four or five families were looted during the few days of turmoil, and two families were affected due to house raids.
If Wei Hong hadn't made arrangements in advance, I'm afraid his family would also suffer.
Fan Tai is usually the leader of the Tiger Head Gang, with thousands of brothers under his command, and they are always supported when he comes in and out, but to the real powerful people, he is just cannon fodder.
In this way, it is true that every family has a sutra that is difficult to recite!
Everyone is having a hard time!
"Don't mention these!" Wei Hong chuckled and poured the wine, and said: "I invite you two here today mainly for a small matter. The son of an old friend of mine wants to open a butcher shop under the name of the Hutou Gang. I don't know, Brother Fan Would you like to make it easier?”
"Hey, what do I think this is? Is such a small thing worth your special effort to find us?" Fan Tai waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Your friend is my friend. What is the name of his shop? No one will dare to keep it under my care in the future. Move him!"
"The store hasn't opened yet, maybe in a few days!" Wei Hong chuckled and said, "It should be called Wei Ji Butcher Shop!"
"Don't worry, I will say hello to the people below." Fan Tai agreed.
Naturally, he would not refute Wei Hong's face over such a trivial matter.
After all, this was a ruthless man who could forcibly kill Xiong Gang. He had unlimited prospects. It was too late for him to fawn over him. Fan Tai could only be happy to be associated with him.
"Thank you, Brother Fan!" Wei Hong raised his glass and said with a smile: "Also, I just broke through the bone refining realm. I am so happy today. You guys will not come back until you are drunk!"
"breakthrough?"
"So fast?"
Fan Tai and Xie Laosan's eyes widened.
They had known for a long time that he would break through, but they didn't expect him to be so fast. Moreover, Wei Hong had already killed Xiong Gang when he was at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm. How powerful would he be after his breakthrough now? It’s simply unimaginable!
"I admire you!" Fan Tai quickly joked and said with a smile: "Now I'm afraid I won't even be able to take one or two moves from you."
"Haha, congratulations!" Xie Laosan also said with envy on his face: "You can definitely compete for the position of captain of the Royal Guards at the early stage of Bone Refining Realm. I have to congratulate you in advance!"
Wei Hong used chopsticks to pick up vegetables and waved his hands carelessly: "The third manager may have allowed me to be promoted early last time, but I didn't agree. It's better to stay at the land and water dock. No one cares about the oil and water!"
"Hahaha, that makes sense!" Xie Laosan laughed dryly and lowered his voice: "Since I plan to stay at the land and water dock, I may have to tell you some things."
"Oh?" Wei Hong suddenly became interested.
He knew the secrets of the land and water dock.
Ever since he came here, he has been doing things in a Buddhist way. He only practices martial arts every day. He accepts women and money from gifts, but he doesn't ask about things on the dock.
Could it be that he finally gained the trust of two people after seeing people's hearts for a long time?
Or maybe they wanted to drag him into trouble because he had broken through to the bone refining realm?
"You should know that many businesses in Prince Duan's Mansion are shady." Xie Laosan whispered: "What do you think is the most profitable business at the water and land terminals?"
Wei Hong frowned and thought for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Salt, iron and weapons?"
"Yes, it seems that I am a knowledgeable man!" Xie Laosan nodded and said: "These days, the more the court refuses to sell, the more profitable it is. Naturally, the palace is involved in these shady industries. Let us come here to interact with the Hutou Gang. Keep an eye out to prevent anyone from enriching themselves."
Wei Hong suddenly realized!
Isn't this just like the Prince's Mansion sending people to follow him when he ransacked his house?
The co-author wanted the Hutou Gang to do dirty work and make money, but was not reassured, so he sent his personal guards to supervise.
But Xie Laosan and Fan Tai were unwilling to just earn their hard-earned money. They must have colluded secretly to intercept the oil and water of Prince Duan's palace.
This kind of thing happens all the time, and no one can get away with it without getting oily!
Wei Hong was already used to this, and he also knew why the two of them were so defensive about him when he first arrived.
"It's not unusual to make money!" Wei Hong smiled nonchalantly: "You two give me a lot of money every month, why do you need to tell me more secrets?"
"When you first came, we couldn't tell you everything." Fan Tai said in a deep voice: "Now that you have broken through to the Bone Refining Realm, it would be a bit inappropriate to keep it secret."
"Yes!" Xie Lao San said with a hint of flattery: "In the future, you will have to take charge of the dock affairs."
Wei Hong smiled in his heart without comment.
No matter what the two people were thinking, it would be good for him to know more secrets of the dock and make more money, so he nodded.
"You two brothers should know my character. I am only interested in martial arts and I don't bother to care about other trivial matters." Wei Hong deliberately evaded: "You can do whatever you want in the future, but you don't need to ask me!"
"That's fine, but the dividends have to increase!"
"Yes, you have to take the lion's share."
Fan Tai and Xie Lao San were tactful and flattering.
Wei Hong agreed!
The three of them smiled at each other and toasted each other. The atmosphere was exactly the same as when he first came to the water and land dock, but the status had changed invisibly.
Everything was just a matter of strength.
Wei Hong didn't need to fight for it. He just needed to continuously improve his strength, and money, status, money, and beauties would automatically come to him. This was the simplest and crudest logic in the world.
"Come on, keep drinking!" Fan Tai chuckled and said, "There will be several batches of good goods on board tonight. We'll take you to see them later."
