Chapter 164 Meeting Hou Juntang(1/2)
Since Black Tiger Hall serves as the chief helmsman of the Four Alliance Gang, the old structure is naturally not enough.
Zhang Chu spent a large sum of money, bought a large area of houses around Black Tiger Hall, and invited Lao Niu, the general contractor of Evernight Street, to come over and finalize the plan.
After the new Silian Gang General Headquarters is completed, in addition to the main hall where the General Headquarters conducts business meetings, there will also be side halls for Qinglong Hall and Xuanwu Hall, as well as a small school ground and thirty-six various service rooms.
The project is not small. According to the construction period estimated by Lao Niu, even if all efforts are made to repair it, it will take at least two months to complete.
During this period, Zhang Chu could only handle housework at home.
The third day of the establishment of the Silian Gang coincided with the county government's hiatus.
Just after dawn, Zhang Chu sent Big Bear to invite Liu Wu to come over.
Liu Wu walked into Zhang's mansion and saw the strong men running around the mansion. He couldn't help but hunched over and slowed down his steps, as if he was afraid of attracting their attention.
"Fifth Master, Zhang Chu is waiting for you in the living room, please!"
Daxiong followed Liu Wu and made an inviting gesture to him.
Liu Wu was suddenly startled and said repeatedly: "Hey, Hall Master Xiong, you don't have to be polite, just call me Liu Wu."
"This can't happen."
Daxiong laughed and said: "You are Master Chu's eldest brother, Master Chu is my eldest brother, I can't mess with the seniority."
After hearing this, Liu Wu relaxed a little and said with a smile: "Your Mr. Chu is indeed nostalgic for old friendships."
When Liu Wu walked into the living room, Zhiqiu was waiting for Zhang Chu and Mr. Zhang to have dinner. There was a large dumpling with a sharp shape on the dining table.
Zhang Chu saw him, stood up with a smile and said: "You are finally here, come on, come on, my mother steamed the big meat buns by herself, which you can't eat outside."
"Hey, hey."
Liu Wu responded twice, and then bowed respectfully to Mrs. Zhang at the dining table: "Liu Wu pays his respects to the old lady."
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly stood up, wiping her hands on her apron nervously, "Palace Master Liu has broken his body."
"Hi, mother, the fifth master is just like my brother. There is nothing wrong with me. Fifth master, don't be too polite. When you get here, it's like you're at your own home. If you have some free time someday, I can take my sister-in-law and the two of you to me.
An eldest nephew comes to visit us, and the friendship between us will last for several generations!"
Zhang Chu tried to smooth things over with a smile.
"That is!"
Liu Wu finally smiled, and his rickety body slowly straightened up.
Zhang Chu pointed at Zhiqiu and said, "Fifth Master, this is my wife Zhiqiu. Zhiqiu, this is Liu Fifth Master."
When Zhiqiu heard him call her his wife, he happily greeted Liu Wufu and said, "I have met the fifth master."
Liu Wu smiled and waved his hand: "My brother and sister are so polite. Ha, my brother is really lucky to be able to marry such a virtuous wife as his brother and sister."
"Haha, don't be polite. Fifth Master, come over and sit down!"
"okay!"
Liu Wu stopped being polite and strode to sit opposite Zhang Chu. Zhiqiu took the bowls and chopsticks and presented them to Liu Wu.
"I've eaten well. Hall Master Liu, eat more. There won't be enough left in the pot!"
"Old lady, go away. I won't be polite."
Zhiqiu stepped forward and helped Zhang to go out slowly.
Soon only Zhang Chu and Liu Wu were left in the living room.
The two of them grabbed the hot meat buns in one hand and stirred the millet porridge with chopsticks in the other, eating slowly.
"Fifth Master, are you getting used to the life of the chief helmsman of the Qinglong Gang?"
"Hey, I'm old age. Is there anything I can't get used to? Although the oil and water there are a bit light, it's better than peace and happiness."
Zhang Chu nodded and said with a smile: "Given your age, it's too early to say that you will provide for your retirement now. Well, our Silian Gang still lacks a law enforcement elder who can control the situation. Are you interested?"
Liu Wu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
The Silian Gang and the Qinglong Gang are not as good as they used to be.
In the past, the Qinglong Gang was located in the west corner of the city, with the Eight Gates Gang standing in front of it, and the Brotherhood of Wolves, the Ax Gang, the Firewood Gang, and the Viper Gang all around. Although he was the leader of a clan, his financial power was extremely limited.
And now the Four Federations dominate the west of the city. Although the Eight Gate Gang has not yet been eliminated, it is just a grasshopper in the autumn. In just a few days, the power of a law enforcement elder will be comparable to that of the former leader of the Qinglong Gang!
But Liu Wu thought for a moment and quickly shook his head and said: "I appreciate your kindness, but now the Jintianfu gang world is dominated by young people like you. I, an old guy, don't come out to mess around.
.”
He is very self-aware.
The current Chengxi gang world is no longer the Chengxi gang world where they were all-powerful.
When they were involved in the gang circles in the west of the city, a fight between twenty and thirty people was already big news. Last year's bloody battle in Sihaitang was already a big scene where years of resentment between the two sides broke out. However, the total number of men involved in the fight in that battle was
Only six to seven hundred people!
In today's gang world in the west of the city, the main axis of action is a big scene with hundreds of people. The day before yesterday, during the cattle and sheep market battle, more than a thousand people from the Black Tiger Hall, the Flying Eagle Hall, the Sihai Hall, and the Eight Gate Gang were involved in the fight.
There were five hundred people, and the corpses on that long street were piled up like a hill.
In the past, they wouldn't have even dared to think about it!
He, Liu Wu, was just a ninth-grade person. If he got involved in a fight of this scale, he would be like a pebble thrown into a big lake. He would not make any waves at all. If he were not careful, he would end up dead on the street.
He has already landed.
I don’t want to be involved in the shadows of swords and swords anymore.
Zhang Chu's invitation was sincere, but Liu Wu was unwilling, so he could only nod his head regretfully and said: "Well, you have free time now. It's a great pleasure in life to accompany your sister-in-law and tease your two nephews."
Liu Wu grinned widely and said, "That's the truth."
After Zhang Chu drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, he suddenly asked: "Fifth Master, do you know what Gang Leader Hou thinks of our Four Alliance Gang?"
Liu Wu knew in his heart that this was the official reason why Zhang Chu invited him here today, but he didn't mind. He shook his head and said: "I don't know, the boss has lost contact with us old brothers since he took office as the county thief cao... Maybe Liu Laoer is with
He still has connections."
Zhang Chu was not surprised.
After all, Hou Juntang is now a county thief, and his identity and status are different. It is unreasonable to continue to keep in touch with the old guys like the chief helmsman of the Qinglong Gang.
"Then based on your understanding of Gang Leader Hou, what would he think of me leaving the Qinglong Gang and becoming independent?"
"Hard to say."
Liu Wu frowned and thought as he said: "The boss is kind, but he is very heavy-minded. He dwells on everything and doesn't tell anyone... However, since you didn't touch the second brother and the others, this matter still exists.
Room to maneuver.”
Zhang Chu nodded: "That's what I mean too... To be honest, with Liu Qiankun's personality, it will be a matter of time before I part ways with him.
But at first, I was worried about the face of you and Gang Leader Hou. I thought about it for a while and then find a compromise way to get together with him. But I never thought that the plan could not keep up with the changes. Liu Qiankun really bullied me too much. The day before yesterday, I
If he doesn't resist, he will die by my sword sooner or later."
What he said was incoherent, but Liu Wu's heart suddenly trembled when he heard it.
What does it mean that Liu Qiankun will die under his knife if he doesn't rebel?
Liu Qiankun is not the eighth grade.
And Zhang Chu is the eighth grade.
No matter how Liu Qiankun regains power, Zhang Chu will not survive if he wants to kill him.
"Fifth Master, today is the day when the county government is having a rest. How about you accompany me to the Hou Mansion later? You and Gang Leader Hou are sworn brothers after all. There are things you can say that I can't say. With you to smooth things over, this matter can't be solved.
Easy to expose."
Liu Wu sighed in his heart.
He knew that the food was not that delicious.
It is true that he and Hou Juntang are sworn brothers, but Hou Juntang's current identity and status are different.
The little affection they had in the past should be used a little, and a little less.
But Zhang Chu has already begged him, how can he not go?
Zhang Chu's identity is different now. To give him face, he still remembers the little affection he had in the past.
If he doesn't help Zhang Chu, it will hurt the little friendship they had in the past.
A county magistrate.
A current manager.
He suffers from both sides.
"Okay, I'll just walk with you for a while."
Liu Wu finally agreed to Zhang Chu.
The little friendship between him and Hou Juntang will only become less and less useful.
To be continued...
