Huang Jiaran was somewhat happy to hear this, but he did not want to let Long Xiangtian go so easily, so Huang Jiaran thought about it and said:
"It's not enough for Mr. Zhou to just treat me to a meal to make up for it."
Hearing this, Long Xiangtian felt as if he had just left a wolf's den and entered a tiger's den, a little cold. So he could only bite the bullet and respond: "Then what compensation does Jia Ran want?"
Huang Jiaran said: "In that case, how about you accompany me to go shopping?"
Hearing this, Long Xiangtian's heart instantly sank. Then he looked at the expressions of Huang and the others and knew that they were serious, so it was difficult to refuse. He could only grit his teeth and persevere.
But at this time, the old housekeeper came up and said, "Miss, the master asked me to invite Mr. Long upstairs. You should stop chatting for now. Otherwise, after Mr. Long and the master have talked about important things, you and Mr. Long will have plenty of time to have a pleasant chat together."
After hearing this, Huang Jiaran took a look at the current situation and said to Long Xiangtian that he would stay for a while, and then left.
Long Xiangtian, led by the old housekeeper, came to the study again. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Lao Hei chatting with Huang Sicheng. Long Xiangtian saw that Lao Hei's physical condition was normal and he was in high spirits. He knew that the injury Lao Hei suffered in the battle had healed. There was no sign of treatment on Lao Hei's body. Long Xiangtian was relieved.
At this time, the two men saw Long Xiangtian coming and stood up to greet him. In Long Xiangtian's eyes, he also saw the information in the two men's eyes, Lao Hei's respect, and joy. And Huang Sicheng's eyes also had more respect for the superior. Perhaps it was Long Xiangtian's powerful performance in this mission that successfully convinced the big boss of Jiangyuan City to be impressed by Long Xiangtian's momentum and ability.
Long Xiangtian looked at the two of them, then he was polite, and then they all sat down, and this time he was the first to speak:
"Boss, your performance this time is so outstanding, you will definitely receive benefits from the country."
After hearing this, Long Xiangtian also understood that Lao Hei wanted to increase Long Xiangtian's status in front of Huang Sicheng. So Long Xiangtian also said:
"How could that be possible? This kind of thing hasn't been determined yet."
Jianci Laohei then asked: "Boss, what are your plans after this time is over?"
Long Xiangtian also understood what Lao Hei meant, or rather Huang Sicheng's idea. He was asking Lao Hei for help. However, Long Xiangtian also knew Huang Sicheng's concerns, so he said directly:
"Boss Huang, don't worry. We know nothing about business, so future trade will depend entirely on you."
Huang Sicheng was happy and excited when he heard this, because he understood the power that Long Xiangtian represented now. That is, he had the support of the police behind him, and the saying that the people are not in conflict with the officials can perfectly describe Long Xiangtian's current background. Zhou really didn't want to be a gangster boss, so he expressed his thoughts:
"Don't worry, Boss Huang. I don't want to do anything fatal, nor do I covet the profits here. So Boss Huang, you can put your mind at ease. Don't think about it. I have a relationship with Lao Hei, so I am helping him in Huiji District."
Seeing this, Huang Sicheng was also new, so he chatted with Long Xiangtian briefly. Seeing that it was noon, the two of them had a quick meal here. At this time, Long Xiangtian was also a little hungry, so he did not refuse. Lao Hei also accompanied Long Xiangtian, and after a brief chat, they came to the restaurant at the invitation of the housekeeper.
At this time, Long Xiangtian also saw Huang Jiaran who had been sitting on a chair waiting for them to come. When Huang Jiaran saw the others coming down, he simply said hello to them and started to attack the food without thinking about anything else. Huang Sicheng felt a little embarrassed when he saw Huang Jiaran doing this, so he wanted to stop him. When Zhou Wu saw this, he stopped Huang Sicheng.
After they had a simple meal, Long Xiangtian said goodbye because he had something to do, and Lao Hei also had to go back to recuperate so they went back together.
The two of them went back together, and at this time Lao Hei said: "I'm sorry, Boss, I just... Hey!"
Long Xiangtian understood what he heard and comforted him: "It's okay, we are all brothers, this little thing doesn't matter."
Hearing this, Lao Hei felt a little ashamed, and Long Xiangtian also understood what Lao Hei was thinking, so he patted Lao Hei on the shoulder and said:
"In fact, I don't really care about this, and I am not suitable to accept the status of a boss. You just asked me, so I want to hand over all these forces, but I have not found good personnel, so I want to transfer my forces to yours."
Lao Hei was somewhat moved after hearing Long Xiangtian's decision, but he understood that Long Xiangtian wanted him to live a better life. However, Lao Hei also knew his own abilities and was afraid that he would not be able to take over smoothly. He was even more afraid that Long Xiangtian's power would be swallowed up because of his own mistakes, which would be a real sin.
So Lao Hei evaded the question and said, "Boss, you know my abilities. I have never done these things before, and my organizational skills were not outstanding when I was in the army, so I think you should consider this matter!"
Long Xiangtian could also understand Lao Hei's thoughts, so he said directly:
"Old Black, you understand the friendship between us. I trust you very much when it comes to employing people. And for things like this, isn't it a good opportunity for you to train? And I'm not asking you to do anything bad. After you have gathered the people, you can clean up those subordinates and finally transfer to become a formal businessman."
Lao Hei was speechless after hearing this, because the trust given by Long Xiangtian also made Lao Hei feel Long Xiangtian's difficulty, that is, those people really couldn't make Long Xiangtian's organization better and better. And those who didn't get Long Xiangtian's trust would eventually become fence-sitters and would easily betray Long Xiangtian.
If this is the case, then it is better to hand it over to one's own people instead of handing it over to outsiders, so that there is no need to worry about betrayal. And once Lao Hei successfully completes this task and successfully accepts Long Xiangtian's strength, he can provide Long Xiangtian with a perfect strength background behind him.
Therefore, Lao Hei sighed first, and then responded to Long Xiangtian's request, so Lao Hei said: "Okay, but I have a close relationship with the Huang family, so there may be some problems with this resignation."
Long Xiangtian also thought of these things when he spoke, but for Long Xiangtian at this time, it was also very important to build a grassroots force behind him, and Long Xiangtian had to deal with Lao Hei's affairs. At this point, Long Xiangtian also said:
"Lao Hei, let's go and discuss your matter together in a few days. As for the rest, I'll take care of it!"
