I am silent...
Fatty Fang's words didn't hide much, but he was outspoken, and hit my biggest fatal point most directly!
foundation! Seniority! !
That Leihu came here was not kind, and he was obviously targeting me.
And Fatty Fang revealed my biggest Achilles heel in just one sentence!
I may be honored as the little fifth brother by most brothers, I may be able to dominate in Vancouver, I may be able to lead these brothers to fight again and again through a series of victories... I may have been recognized now For the well-known "Fifth Master..."
However, all of these can't hide a pale and powerless reality: I entered the organization of the big circle with all my plans, and it was only a little over a year ago.
On the positive side, I, a "newcomer" who has only been in the organization for more than a year, can make a career in such a situation, and go straight to the top... step by step, and be recognized by everyone. From a newcomer to a "bearer", such a brilliance, I think it is an unimaginable miracle in any place in the world.
But on the other hand... In just one year, no matter how popular I am, after all, my qualifications are too shallow. Looking at the entire big circle in Vancouver, who can become a core member of the big circle, which one doesn't have at least six or seven years of experience? For example, Xi Luo, a recognized "young man"... He has even been working as a car repairman since he was a teenager!
Not to mention people like the dead Huang, or those who are alive now in their early thirties, or even in their forties!
Those people are the real big circle!
I am a person who has only been in the industry for a little more than a year... In fact, in the current big circle, there are not newcomers like me who have only been in the industry for about a year... It's just that those people are all "peripheral personnel"!
A newcomer who has been in the industry for about a year can enter the big circle and become a "core member" in the big circle. Carry the handle!
Although, in my superior position, there are various chances and coincidences in it... For example, the lack of young blood in the big circle made me and Xi Luo promoted by the eighth master. For example, in order to restrain Tiger, Ba Ye made an exception and raised my status. For another example, Tiger's death made me make great contributions in Vietnam in a disguised form, and Ba Ye had to give me a chance to be in the top position... Another example, my relationship with the princess Hell Angel made Ba Ye have to Not supporting me to participate in the cooperation with Mr. Sorin has caused my status to improve. Then again, because of the surprise attack of the Vietnamese, all the middle-level leaders in the big circle died overnight... and my status rose again...
In the end, Ba Ye died. At this time, I looked up... There was no one above me. I have unknowingly stood on the top floor of the Vancouver circle!
For over a year, my status was almost as if I were in a helicopter... well, no, the helicopter can't even describe it! This is simply rocket-like speed up! Even though I killed the double-flower red sticks of Huabang with great glory; even though I escaped death in Vietnam, I miraculously completed the task; even though I fought for the big circle, went through life and death, and shed so much blood and sweat...
However, all this still cannot hide the fact that:
I am a rookie who has only entered the big circle for more than a year!
Perhaps, in the eyes of many people, I can't even be regarded as a "big circle" in the true sense.
Or make a hypothesis... If only one of Lao Huang's middle-level leaders is still alive, then no matter how dazzling my current achievements and abilities are, I'm afraid it won't be my turn to be the boss.
And if... if the boss is not me, but Xi Luo... I am afraid that those guys in Asia will not express their opposition so blatantly! At least Ciro's qualifications in the big circle have been several years, and I...even many "peripheral personnel" have thicker qualifications than me!
Fatty Fang's eyes were complicated, and he sighed slowly: "Do you understand now?"
"Understood." I smiled wryly, "I already understood."
"Hey!" Fatty Fang frowned, the fat on his face was squeezed into a ball, and he spread his hands and said, "To be honest, I think you are a bit outrageous. When I sent you here, I just I think the situation here is very promising. And here in Canada, it is clear that there are no newcomers under Fang Bazhi. So, I thought about it for a long time at the time, and felt... Although it is recognized that Fang Bazhi has grasped the power a little bit harder, given that his men really I'm short of people, I'll send you here, so maybe I won't have a chance to get ahead..." The fat man couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Damn! I was thinking very well at the time, I thought you were here, so it's good It takes at least two years to become a core member, and it will take three to five years for you to gain some status... By that time, Fang Bazhi will be old, even if he refuses to delegate power, he will not Let it go, at that time, if you performed well, you might be able to get into a middle-level leadership situation... "
He glanced at me again, and scolded: "But I didn't even expect that your kid even jumped seventeen or eighth grades in a year..."
I am silent.
"When I was in Vietnam, I thought you were going up too fast... Besides, Fang Ba put you in a dangerous position..." The fat man shook his huge head and couldn't help sighing: "That guy Tiger I've heard that the relationship with Fang Ba is a bit tense, but I never thought it would turn out to be like that... I didn't expect Fang Ba to use you as a bargaining chip against Tiger ... As a result, Tiger's rebellion was killed by you, but you also logically took over... too fast... too fast... I thought it was not a good thing at the time... With Fang Ba's suspicion, if you have been here for a few years Yes, if you have a certain foundation, then you might as well fight him... But you are a newcomer without any foundation, and you have been put in a dangerous position, so..."
"So you hinted at me at the time, implying that my best choice is to leave the big circle, right?" I smiled wryly.
"Yes!" The fat man nodded seriously, but then he smiled wryly: "But I didn't expect that, not only did you not listen to me, but you ran back to Canada and continued to work... Not long after, you actually sat here The handle!"
I looked at the fat man silently, he had a wry smile on his face, but deep worry flashed in his eyes.
"Brother." I stood up, took a few steps back and forth in the room, took out a cigarette from my pocket and lit a cigarette, and then took a deep look at the fat man: "Brother Fang... I'm calling you brother now!! "
I took a deep breath, and there was a bit of excitement in my eyes: "In this world, you are the only one who can make me call 'Big Brother' convincingly! To be honest, when I was in the Those things in Guangzhou, every thing, every detail, I remember clearly! Everything... everything is engraved here!" I pointed to my head.
Then, I took a deep breath of the cigarette, looked at the fat man, I seemed to be recalling, and seemed to be talking to myself...
"I will never forget that night in Guangzhou, I was chased like a lost dog! On the street, there was a girl beside me, not even a dog! It was you who showed up and gave me a hand at the critical moment! "My tone gradually became serious, and I said in a deep voice: "Then...you took me back to your place, gave me something to eat, gave me a place to sleep...that night, Huan..." I hesitated for a second, gritted my teeth and said : "Ye Huan! Ye Huan... He wanted to kill me... At that time, I had already given up. I have never been so sad in my life! I was chased and hacked by so many people on that street in Guangzhou. I At that time, I already had the idea of fighting for one enough to pay for two and earning one... But, you showed up again and saved my life! I will never forget that day when I rushed out of the alley and saw you driving towards me In front of you, waving to me and pulling me into the car!! I will never forget, you took me to the underground clinic for treatment, I rolled on the bed in pain, you pressed me, stuffed cigarettes in my mouth... I I can't forget that you took me to that country house to shelter from the wind, and you lived there to take care of me, cook for me... and you later arranged for me to go out to sea by boat... "
As I talked, I was also a little excited, and my voice inevitably choked up. Finally, I let out a long breath and stared at the fat man: "The kindness you gave me is not ordinary kindness! It is a life-saving kindness! Love is not ordinary kindness, it is a life-saving friendship! If I were in this world, Who still owes the most, then you Fatty Fang is undoubtedly the person I want to repay the most!"
"Little Five..." Fatty Fang wanted to say something, but I waved my hand to stop him.
I continued to slowly say: "To be honest, without you saving me back then, I would not be where I am today! Basically, everything I have today was given to me by you! So... Brother Fang!" I slowly Slowly said: "If they send someone else this time, in the end, I will turn my face! But you... as long as you say a word, I will give up the big business here in Canada! My little five has to leave with his burden! These are all given to me by you, and now I will return it to you, it’s nothing... if..." I smiled slightly, looked into the fat man's eyes, and said seriously: "Even if you are worried, you must kill me... as long as you Brother, just say a word, no one else needs to do it, my life is yours! You can take it back at any time."
"Little Five!" Fatty Fang called me again, and his expression was a little excited.
The two of us stared at each other...it was totally man to man eye contact.
Finally, he smiled, and said slowly: "Xiao Wu, if I wanted you to die, I wouldn't have persuaded you to leave when I was in Vietnam... Now that you've come this far, you're a man, you're a man who is famous There is no reason for anyone to let you be arrested... To be honest, I am also opposed to this matter. The people in the family actually have different opinions... If I really want you to die, I will not sit here and talk to you. You spoke!"
Speaking of this, he whispered: "Don't just talk about life and death... You are still young. When you reach my age, you will understand that the two words life and death are actually very important! Hehe, and, You have forgotten what I told you back then... In this world, apart from my own mother and Lao Tzu, there is no kindness worth repaying with one's life!"
The fat man walked up to me and pushed me on the sofa to sit down. He casually took the cigarette case from my hand, took out one and lit it himself, squinting his eyes and said: "Now you are also a hero. , big and small, there are at least hundreds of people looking at you, and there are probably thousands of people who depend on you for food! You die when you say you want to die? Let go when you say you want? How can it be so simple! Even if you are willing, you can ask your subordinates Those brothers will not agree!"
Fatty's tone suddenly became sharper, and only then did he recover a bit of the spirit that he used to snatch me out of the sword formation by himself in a car, and dare to confront Jin He with a gun! He sneered: "Those old guys in the family are a little confused... Canada is a land where oil and water are thicker. But over the years, Fangba has managed so well that it is almost an iron drum, and we have already divided it. I have been with you for many years, and now I want to extend my hand, how can it be so simple! Those old guys are a little confused, but to be honest, they don’t mean to bully you because of your youth.”
"Hmm." I nodded.
The fat man stood beside me, put one hand on my shoulder, and said with a smile: "You are young, and you are a rookie who has only been in the industry for more than a year, so those old guys at home thought that you might be easy to deal with, so they wanted to send someone Come here, scam you. If you succeed, you might take back the Canadian territory that has been allocated for so many years. Even if you fail, you can at least get some benefits from you... Anyway, you won’t lose money. So Good thing, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to resist coming to fight Qiufeng... Haha!"
"Brother Fang..." I was a little moved. From his point of view, he really shouldn't have said this to me.
The fat man waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about me. That guy Leihu and I are at odds with each other. I used to be a free spirit there. Those old guys, I don't care about them, and they usually don't care about me. The situation here is different and more complicated. This time, if it wasn't because of you here, I wouldn't bother to come here! That Leihu, you just need to respect him, if he does too much, Even if you kick him back, he doesn't dare to fart! This kind of old guy doesn't have much real power in the family, so he came here to ask for some benefits. But this old fox has a big appetite, so he actually wants to Swallow it in one gulp here... Humph, he's not afraid of choking to death!"
"Then what do you mean..."
The fat man raised his eyebrows: "He's asking for a lot of money, so you won't pay back the money?" He patted me on the shoulder: "As for those who have no qualifications, it's all an excuse. This kind of thing, it's natural to have it after looking into it." It's a problem, but as long as you sit firmly here, who will pursue this kind of problem... Hehe, yes, you, Chen Yang, are an outsider to the big name in the big circle. But to the land of Canada... you It is the master here, and those of us from other regions are outsiders!"
I smiled: "I understand this truth, but I still have to be careful about how to do it."
The fat man said leisurely: "Since we are talking about this point today, I might as well give you an explanation... You are not allowed to touch Leihu, no matter how angry or angry you are, you can't touch him! This is a big principle! As for the others, what do you think?" You can do whatever you want. It’s the basic principle not to fight among the big circles. After I go back, I will help you with some room for maneuver. Anyway, I have plans to retire. I set up an estate for my retirement, even if you repay my kindness."
I thought for a while: "Okay, I don't intend to kill Leihu either... After all, I'm still from the same sect in name, besides, if I touch him, those big bosses in your place will be angry and get two teams of paratroopers to trouble me , I can't afford it."
"Airborne!" Fatty sneered, "Are you so united in the big circle? Airborne! Hehe! If it weren't for our interests here in Canada, do you think those big bosses in the family would be so kind and send airborne to help you? "
I nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, you fight and kill in Asia, in the Golden Triangle, and in the small countries in Southeast Asia, smuggling and selling drugs, less than half of the goods you get are sold from Canada every year. The big circle here in Canada has collapsed, and you can't survive there. So, this time, I heard that I am in a tight spot, so you are so happy to send airborne troops over here."
The fat man giggled, pointed at me with his finger, made a silent gesture, and said with a grin: "Very well, it's good if you understand... But to the outside world, we still have to shout slogans... What kind of unity in the big circle?" Ah, brotherhood is deep, these high-sounding words still need to be shouted more."
I see.
This time Leihu came here to speculate! That old guy, in fact, his real purpose is to think about whether he can take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune here. If everything goes well, if he makes a big fortune, he might be able to take back the control of the entire Canadian circle here. Even if it doesn't work, at least get some benefits back.
This is what they really think.
If I'm not mistaken, this Leihu is probably a little too greedy. As a result, seeing that I am so young, I am a little anxious to find a way. I didn't expect that I wouldn't give in an inch, and his first wave of temptation was in vain.
Next, all he can make a fuss about is what time it is...
Taking advantage of my weak foundation in the big circle... is nothing more than dividing and wooing.
Hmph, did he really think this was a romance novel? He wants to come to Canada single-handedly and take away my country? How can there be such a cheap thing!
But win over and divide... Although this kind of routine is a bit old, it is still very effective sometimes.
After all, this old guy wears the big hat of "big circle orthodoxy" on his head! Although he is actually an outsider, but what makes me depressed is... But this kind of "orthodox" hat, this kind of high-sounding bullshit reason, among the Chinese, there are really many traditional people who like to eat this set.
I remember that there seems to be such a drama in the Three Kingdoms... At that time, Liu Biao, Liu Jingsheng, the lord of Jingzhou, came to Jingzhou to take office alone. One Jingzhou swallowed it!
It has to be said that this kind of miracle can only appear in us Chinese...
But then again... If the old guy Leihu wants to play with me to win over and divide... I'm afraid he may not be able to play well.
It is true that his "big circle authentic" hat may arouse the small thoughts of many people who may not convince me secretly. However, if it comes to win over and divide the leaders of my subordinates to betray me, the possibility of this is too small.
Because... to be honest, in the big circle now, except for me... the other leaders are almost all newcomers who have been single-handedly promoted by me in the past few days! Because... the old boss, Lao Huang and the others are all dead! The few guys that I have promoted now are either my direct descendants, or at least they have accepted my promotion. Probably no one would take Leihu's trick of soliciting and dividing.
In addition to win over the division, the most likely thing Leihu will do is to make a fuss about the "Eighth Master's death"!
However, although this weapon is sharp, it is not easy to use! If one is not used properly, I am afraid it will cause a big mess!
If he really dared to make a fuss about the death of Lord Ba... Then he had to think about the consequences of this matter! Ba Ye's death, this kind of thing can't be used as a weapon casually! Once it is taken out, it will be a scene where everyone will not give up regardless of life and death!
If he really dares to play dirty with this matter... then there are only two results... Either he uses this matter to bring me down... or he fails and I continue to be in power... But the consequences are that from now on The Canadian circle and the Asian circle have completely broken up! ! Definitely! Now Leihu is here to represent the Asian circle! If he dares to openly suspect that I have something to do with the death of Ba Ye... it means that he represents the entire Asian circle to suspect that I am the murderer of Ba Ye! This charge is not small! It's like forcing me to turn against them!
"What are you thinking?" Fatty saw that I was silent for a long time without speaking, he smiled, suddenly rolled his eyes, patted my shoulder vigorously, and said in a low voice: "Are you planning, Leihu will take me?" Fang Ba's death to make a fuss?"
I suddenly raised my head and stared at Fatty Fang.
The fat man shook his head, and said in a low voice: "You're still young, keep calm..." He sneered: "Hey! Fang Ba's death, no one really cares about this kind of thing! Xiao Wu, I won't ask stupidly. How did you Fang Ba die...I don’t know how to ask that kind of stupid question... How did Fang Ba die? Yes... But, even if it was really you who killed it... Leihu, why should he question you? After all, he is an outsider. Asia and your place are both big circles in name, but they are actually two! Killing Fangba... Hmph, Even if he is killed, Leihu is an outsider, what kind of mind is he? Besides, when Fang Ba came to power, didn't he step on his brother's corpse to get to the top? At that time, no one came to find out what happened to Fang Ba's brothers. Damn! Why? Because when Fang Ba was in power, Fang Ba had a lot of seniority and strong control, and there was no chance in Asia to intervene. Even if they knew that Fang Ba’s brother’s death was suspicious, no one would come out and say something! Now? , Seeing an opportunity, I came here to speak out about Fang Bashi's injustice, to avenge him and uphold justice... This justice is too worthless."
I smiled: "Brother, I'm not worried about Leihu making a fuss about this... He is an outsider in this matter. He came to Canada for the first time and has no roots here. Unless he hangs an orthodox signboard, there is nothing else to do." He has the advantage. What evidence does he have to use this matter to blame me? But I have thought about it, I will do a good show tonight, and give him some color first... Anyway, I will let him Understand, now here, I have the final say! I am now the little brother in Vancouver! And he, Leihu, is just a guest, you better be honest with me!"
In the end, my voice was a little cold.
At this time, someone knocked on the door outside, and then the hammer pushed the door in and told me first that he had sent Leihu back to the room. Then he hesitated for a moment, as if about to say something. I smiled: "It's okay, this is my elder brother, if you have anything to report, you can report it directly, don't shy away from him."
Only then did Hammer heaved a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "Siro and the others are back...he heard me say that you are meeting guests here, and let me tell you that he has settled down tonight...what you want...he has brought it back , now he is waiting for you in the dark house at the back."
I sighed, looked back at the fat man, and said slowly: "Brother, are you interested in watching a good show with me?"
Before the fat man could speak, I gave an order to the hammer: "Order, let all the brothers in the family form two groups to guard the gate outside, and everyone else gather in the mourning hall!" A cruel smile appeared on the corner of my mouth: " Tonight, I’m going to set up an incense hall! I’m burying all the dead brothers!”
After a pause, I told Hammer again: "Go and wake up that old Mr. Lei, I guess he won't be able to sleep tonight, just in time, you go and invite him to the mourning hall too Let's get together."
