"Brother, do you think we can be selected?" The person who spoke was Aaron, the younger brother of Andy's brothers.

This guy looked to be about 27 or 28 years old, and he was wearing pretty good clothes, including the accessories on his body, all of which were valuable. But no matter what kind of clothes he wears, he can't hide the indescribable temperament he exudes, which is earthy and fierce!

He sat on a chair, holding a bone in his hand and biting the meat on it, "How about we try something old-fashioned?" After saying these words, he looked at his brother, Crow, across the table. Si Andy.

The two of them were the notorious Andy brothers. There were seven or eight people sitting scattered around them, each of them seemed to be able to eat people through their eyes. The small shop that was originally doing good business was completely empty in an instant.

The boss and waiter standing behind had to laugh along with him. Fortunately, these people had no intention of defaulting on the bill and paid the money as soon as they came up. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do.

While eating the minced beef mixed with steamed wheat kernels on the plate, Klaus raised his head and said: "We don't know Dulin's background yet, so we should follow the rules for the time being. Put away your thoughts and wait and see. "

There are many "legends" about Dulin. Some say he is a super-rich businessman from the East Coast, others say he is the largest smuggling leader on the East Coast, and others say he has a good relationship with the Navy and has friendship with the Army. There are more than a dozen rumors and he is now the mayor of Otis City, which can indeed scare people.

This is not the first time that Brother Andy has come into contact with simple officials. No matter how they behave, those officials always have their shortcomings. As long as they have the shortcomings, everyone will become good friends. If you really can't send bullets, send bomb models, or simply come to threaten you, someone will always bow your head. If all else fails, the worst possible option is to bypass the official and go directly to his superior.

If it is a pure gang member, it will be easy to handle. Everyone will make their battles clear and say one, two, three, four. If we can reach an agreement, we will make a fortune together. If we cannot reach an agreement, we will go to war. Except for those who cannot afford to offend, the Andy brothers have really never been afraid of anyone.

But the problem now is that Du Lin combines these two identities. What if you think he will follow the official channels and suddenly stab you? In other words, if we start a war according to the gang style, but a group of army soldiers come across from us, what should we do? So so far, everyone is very cooperative with Du Lin's work. Except for many people who have investments in Odis City, they have no idea what kind of person Du Lin is and what kind of back-up he has. Being in temptation.

However, there is a definite piece of news about Dulin that has spread, that is, Dulin is very reasonable and follows the rules. As long as he does not break his rules and can show his sincerity, Dulin will not discriminate against anyone and will protect the rights and interests of everyone.

This is also the reason why more people can be attracted here. At least a mayor who may have a gang identity is better for these gang members to communicate with than pure officials. After all, everyone used to be the same.

Aaron curled his lips and stirred the food on the plate with a spoon. Although the food was obviously very delicious, he didn't feel how delicious it was. Money stimulates his senses and desires more than these foods.

During this period of time, they have also been conducting inspections in Otis City. On the one hand, they are preparing for future plunder, and on the other hand, they are also considering finding a place to settle down and do some legitimate business. They have indeed prospered in these years, but everyone knows that as long as they still eat this bowl of rice, they may fall into trouble because of something that they may not know or notice.

Being able to do some legitimate business, at least if someone is unlucky in the future, you will have someone to rely on for the rest of your life.

When they found out that someone was preparing to take over the bus system in Otis City, they immediately became interested. After carefully asking a few good friends about the inside story of the bus system, both brothers felt that this was something they could do.

According to the current charter of the empire, the bus system is basically contracted out to private operators, and the city hall also allocates a subsidy to the bus system every year. Many public transportation companies are crying about poverty, saying that they have lost money here and lost money there. In fact, this is a joke.

In this world, there are no restrictions on vehicle age or mileage. As long as a car is not completely destroyed, as long as it can still run and carry people, no one will care about it for a hundred years. The price of a bus ranges from RMB 12,000 to RMB 20,000, and it can carry at least 60 people per trip. Calculated based on the 400,000 people currently announced by the city, 100,000 of them need to go out every day, and half of them need to take buses. Each passenger needs to pay a fare ranging from 15 cents to 25 cents, with the median value of 2 Ten points.

Then there will be at least 2,000 yuan in income a day. Excluding miscellaneous wear and tear and maintenance expenses, the net profit will be about 600 yuan. This is only a city with a population of 400,000. According to the current development momentum of Odis City, it is only a matter of time before it exceeds one million. Add in the large number of migrant population and multiple round trips. It is very big to have a net profit of two to three thousand a day. Something relaxing.

When the time comes, the city hall will provide a subsidy of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. It is definitely not a dream to earn more than 100,000 yuan a month!

If the two brothers had a lawyer present when they were settling their accounts, they would definitely tell them that they forgot to pay taxes, but even if they paid in full, they would end up with around eighty or ninety thousand, which is no faster than if they robbed a steam locomotive. And it's safe

Therefore, Brother Andy attaches great importance to this attempt. Once the city hall believes that their bid meets the requirements of the city hall, they plan to change careers. This money is enough for them to spend and at the same time, they can support so many brothers under them. . When the time comes, I turn from a bunch of fare bullies into tycoons, it’s exciting just thinking about it!

"I heard that there are other bidders?" Aaron, who couldn't eat because he had something on his mind, fiddled with the food on his plate and asked again, "Do you want to find out their background?"

Klaus shook his head again. He put down his spoon and stood up, looked at Aaron, and said softly: "Can you be quiet for a while? You have been biting and biting since this morning. Do you know I want to punch you twice in the face right now?"

Klaus, who had lost his appetite after being annoyed by Aaron, picked up a napkin and wiped the grease on his lips, wiped his hands again, got up and walked out. Aaron immediately took two mouthfuls of food and followed. While chewing the food in his mouth, he said: "I am also worried about our affairs, you can't blame me!"

Klaus stopped and glanced sideways at Aaron, "Swallow what's in your mouth. Damn it, when will you behave like me? Like a civilized person?"

"Why? Just because you want to enter the upper class?" Aaron was not afraid of Klaus at all. After all, he was a brother. "I said, that is not our world. We are just maggots in the mud. We have to do what we do. Things to do!”

"I can't make sense to you at all. Why the hell didn't your mother give you a sound brain? I'm going crazy! Are you going to be a robber for the rest of your life?" Klaus asked back and walked forward quickly. He didn't want to pay attention to Aaron behind him, but Aaron continued to chase him.

Just when the two were about to quarrel, one of their men ran over from a distance. They found someone to write a tender document for them according to their friend's description, and then delivered it to the government affairs acceptance mailbox in the city hall, and then sent someone to guard it there. As long as there is any bit of news, they will be informed immediately.

At this time, the two brothers stopped arguing. When the man ran up to them, Klaus asked: "How is the matter?"

The guy bent over and gasped several times while holding his knees, and then said intermittently: "It seems that our bid was rejected. I saw Adren's people went to the city hall, I don't know..."

Before he finished speaking, Aaron pushed him away and walked quickly towards the city hall. Klaus frowned and did not catch up. Instead, he tilted his head and asked several of his men to follow him.

Adren is a gray force guy from the Namirinds side. He supports about twenty people under his command. He is willing to do anything as long as he can make money. Because the content involved is relatively complicated, he can do a little bit of everything, and he knows a lot of people. He is considered a low-level dirty work character, specializing in "public relations" for some rich people or companies who are willing to spend money to solve their problems.

He wasn't sure if Adren was here to compete with him for this public transportation company, so he didn't stop Aaron. Aaron was indeed impulsive sometimes and had no brains, but sometimes he still had advantages.

For example, he gets into trouble, and then he, the older brother, comes to clean up the mess. The two brothers play this game until they are very familiar with it.

Although Aaron would be a little impulsive, after all, he did not dare to rush into the city hall and mess around. He was waiting at the door. He and several of his men squatted on the flower bed outside the door of the city hall, holding a cigarette and waiting. Adren's men come out.

After waiting for about half an hour, he saw a guy in formal clothes who didn't mind the heat and walked out of the city hall with a smile on his face. He immediately jumped down from the flower bed and greeted him.

When he saw that person, that person also saw it, frowned involuntarily, and stopped in place.

"Can I see you anywhere? Chester?" There was less than half a meter between Aaron and Chester. He raised his hand and touched Chester's waxed hair. The latter She leaned back and avoided his hand.

At the same time, a guy next to Chester stepped in and stood between the two of them.
