Honghu was checking the accounts in the granary at the pier when Mengzi ran in panting: "Third brother, go out and take a look. Hundreds of people on the pier are about to start a fight."
Honghu put down the account book and said, "Mengzi, don't panic, speak slowly."
Mengzi picked up the bowl, took a sip of water, and said: "The reason for the fight is this. The row of yards in the south garden of the dock were built by the porters from the Bangzi Camp of the dock to collect their wives and children.
This land belongs to Dachangsheng Company, and the person responsible for building the yard is Lijiajiangfang. After the yard was built, business in the dock area became popular, and the surrounding shops were very prosperous. Dachangsheng felt that the sale was cheap, and asked Bangziying to add more
Money, the porters had spent all their savings for many years last time, how could they have any money now? They refused to increase the price. So, Dachangsheng sold this row of yards to the Ax Gang. The Ax Gang had a large number of people, knowing full well that this
As for the origin of Paiyuan, I saw an opportunity and bought it regardless of the opportunity.
Mr. Liu of Bangziying went to see Da Changsheng in person to discuss the matter, but shopkeeper Xu of Dachangsheng kept avoiding him. Mr. Liu hired a lawyer and prepared to go to the government office to file a lawsuit. The lawyer looked at the land purchase document and informed Mr. Liu that Dachangsheng was in the purchase document.
After some manipulation, the lawsuit was brought to the county government, and the government also had to rule in favor of Da Changsheng. Bangziying suffered a dumb loss this time. Now, Bangziying was in trouble. The porters were furious and prepared to take the yard back. Dachangsheng
When something didn't look good, he quickly asked for help from the Ax Gang. The leader of the Ax Gang personally led his men down to the dock, and saw that the two groups were about to fight."
When Honghu heard this, he rushed to the scene without delay.
At this time, hundreds of people had gathered at the pier. The porters from Bangziying were holding poles and chopping knives, surrounding Dachangsheng's shops on three levels inside and three outside. The crowd was furious.
The Ax Gang had a slightly smaller number and stood guard at the door of Dachangsheng, confronting it. The two-pin red stick thugs of the Ax Gang were dressed in black shirts, with their tattoos exposed, and the axes in their hands were cold and gleaming.
Gang leader Weng Hao is eight feet tall, strong and sturdy, with a short chest and a tunic of black hair standing on his chest. At this moment, he is sitting on a stool at the door with his legs crossed, holding a small teapot, and takes a sip from time to time.
He looked at the troublemaking porters with contempt.
Seeing this, Honghu made a judgment in his mind. Although there were many porters and some brute force, they were usually working country people. In front of the Ax Gang thugs, they were like sheep meeting a pack of wolves, vulnerable. Once the fighting started,
There must be heavy casualties.
Honghu walked up to Director Liu of Bangziying and saluted with clasped fists. When Director Liu saw the Thirteen Taibao of the Minjiang Gang coming forward, Director Liu also hurriedly returned the gift.
Honghu said: "I know something about the courtyard. I also come from a poor family, and I know very well how wronged everyone is. But today's matter cannot be solved by force."
Mr. Liu was filled with indignation and pointed at Dachangsheng's signboard and said: "I don't know, but if Dachangsheng doesn't give us an explanation, brothers won't agree!"
Honghu said: "Once the battle starts, even if Bangziying wins, there will definitely be heavy casualties. Besides, these yards may not be taken back. How will the master explain to the brothers by then?"
"This..." Mr. Liu didn't know the consequences and was speechless for a moment.
Honghu said sincerely: "If the head of the family believes in me, I am willing to act as a guarantee to resolve today's disaster. I also ask the head of the house to let the brothers calm down."
Mr. Liu nodded in agreement and stopped the clamoring porters.
Honghu pushed aside the crowd and walked directly towards Weng Hao, the leader of the Ax Gang.
…
At this time, a man on the Immortal Exile Tower had a gloomy look on his face, staring at Honghu with ill intentions. He secretly said in his heart: "I dare not take care of this, and I don't weigh my own weight. If there is anything wrong, it depends on how you explain it to the gang leader.
.”
In the private room on the other side, an old man and a beautiful woman were also looking out the window:
"Father, it's such a difficult situation, can this young gang leader solve it?"
"It's hard to say, this Ax Gang Weng Hao is notoriously difficult to offend. If the leader of Minjiang Gang Qu comes forward, maybe it will happen. This kid, I'm afraid..."
Hearing her adoptive father's comments, the beauty felt worried, and her beautiful eyes were firmly locked on the swan.
…
Honghu walked up to Gang Leader Weng and bowed deeply.
Weng Hao did not get up and said with a grin: "The Thirteen Taibao are here, but are you here to be a lobbyist?"
Honghu smiled and said: "No, I'm here to discuss a deal with Boss Weng?"
"Oh?" Weng Hao was stunned.
Honghu said: "Today's dispute stems from the yard of the dock. If your gang continues to hold it, there may be unrest in the future and it will always disturb your elegance. If I buy it from you at double the price, I wonder if Boss Weng is willing to part with it.
?”
Weng Haoxin said, is there such a good thing? A pair of triangular eyes rolled up and down Honghu's body, hesitating. He said slowly: "It's interesting. But with such a big sum of money, can you make the decision on behalf of the leader of the Qu Gang?"
Hong Hu smiled slyly and said, "Someone will pay for this money." He glanced meaningfully at the signboard of Da Changsheng, leaned over Weng Hao, and whispered a few words.
Weng Hao rolled his eyes twice, suddenly realized, stretched out his thumb and said: "Gao, my brother is really tall!"
…
After a cup of tea, Weng Hao, Honghu, Mr. Liu and Shopkeeper Xu of Dachangsheng were sitting around the Eight Immortals table in the private room on the third floor of the Banished Immortal Building.
Weng Hao was fierce and ferocious, with the flesh on his face trembling. He stepped on the bench with one leg, slapped the table and shouted: "Shopkeeper Xu, when you sold my yard, you didn't tell me that the yard had been sold to someone else before! Now give it to me
I caused such a big trouble, and many brothers even lost the prize, what do you think I should do?"
Shopkeeper Xu secretly cursed that the sale of this yard to Bangziying was known to everyone on the dock. If you hadn't been greedy for cheap and relied on me, how could I have sold it to you. But now that I had suffered a loss, I could only accompany him quickly.
no.
Weng Hao was unreasonable and said viciously: "This land is not peaceful. If you buy it, you will cause trouble. I don't want it anymore. Dachangsheng sells two pieces of land to me. According to the rules, you have to pay me twice the land price."
"What? This is absolutely impossible!" Shopkeeper Xu didn't expect this situation, and his face turned green.
Weng Hao made up his mind and flatly refused, sneering and saying: "Why not? If you dare to rely on my Ax Gang's money, I will take off your legs today!" After that, he slapped the land deed on Shopkeeper Xu's hand.
face.
When Shopkeeper Xu saw Weng Hao's behavior, his calves became weak and he did not dare to continue to provoke him. He gritted his teeth, went through the formalities with a sad face, and directed his men to carry the silver coins into the Ax Gang's carriage.
After Weng Hao got the silver, he looked proud, raised his fists towards Mr. Liu and Honghu, and said, "We don't know each other until we fight. I'll treat you two to a drink someday."
After Weng Hao got on the horse happily, he felt a little uncomfortable again, and thought to himself: "Chen Honghu is really a good guy, why didn't I meet him earlier? I got an advantage from this old guy Qu Sanjiang in vain." Thinking of this, he said to his cronies on the left and right
He said: "This Thirteen Taibao is a person. From now on, please take it easy and don't provoke him when it comes to the dock."
…
After Weng Hao left, Mr. Liu said: "We don't want the yard that the Ax Gang doesn't want, and we don't want it at Bangzi Camp either. Please ask Shopkeeper Xu to return our money as well. Otherwise, we will be affected by the door-to-door asking for money every three days."
A prosperous business.”
Shopkeeper Xu's heart was bleeding. When he heard this, he suddenly came back to his senses and said to himself: "Mr. Liu is saying this ironically. If he really sells it to someone else, he can't continue to toss it? Besides, the matter in the yard is causing trouble.
It’s so big and the Ax Gang has withdrawn, who else would dare to take over?”
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Xu was heartbroken, and a smile instantly broke out on his face: "Hahaha, what are Mr. Liu talking about? Why don't I want to sell to Bangziying? I was just forced by the Ax Gang, so I didn't
There's a way. As you've seen, I spent a lot of real money today to help settle the axe. You should pay the balance as soon as possible, and you'll save yourself a long night and a lot of dreams."
After that, he handed over the land deed and carefully handed it to Mr. Liu's family.
…
The turmoil subsided. Mr. Liu took Honghu's hand and said eagerly: "Thank you for what happened today, brother. We will make a special trip to visit you and the leader of the Qu gang another day. If there is any need in the future, I, the brothers from Bangziying, will be at your disposal!"
"
Honghu quickly bowed and gave way.
…
The old man and the beauty upstairs were deeply relieved when they saw this. These two people were Wen Jishi and Xuanji Fairy who had come to the Immortal Exile Tower to have tea and enjoy the scenery.
Governor Wen took a sip of wine and praised: "Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. At this young age, this little brother has such courage and strategy. He will surely achieve great things in the future, and his future is limitless."
Fairy Xuanji touched her palms and smiled and said, "I rarely hear my adoptive father praising young people. It seems that I am in a good mood today."
Governor Wen didn't say anything, he stroked his beard and laughed.
