"Hehe." Saru sneered, but the coldness on his face became clearer and he didn't hide it.
Ma Dilan was a little at a loss, he didn't want to see his partner being so stiff.
Russell raised his head and shook his head slightly at Lin Sheng.
"Sorry... Mr. Lin..." He finally made a choice, with helplessness on his face as he struggled.
Whoo
Saru stood up suddenly, and glanced at the few people coldly.
"Mr. Lin, why are you still sitting around? Since they don't join the group, everyone is not in the same group. There is nothing to say."
Lin Sheng's expression was calm, without showing any emotion at all.
"Sit down, Saru. It's never too late to leave after dinner. Even if they don't support us, they were our companions after all. There's no need for us to come to this point."
"I can't help it, my temper is a bit out of control, I'm sorry Master Lin." Saru sat down again with a sneer.
Lin Sheng sat up straight, his slightly muscular arms lay flat on the armrests of the chairs on both sides.
"Although you are unwilling to support me, I still recognize you as my brothers."
When he said this, there was a trace of relief in Russell's eyes, but Xia Yin and Ma Dilan were unmoved.
From their point of view, Lin Sheng is just a swordsmanship teacher, and it's fine if he helped him once or twice before, but now the other party actually wants to treat them as subordinates.
Their self-esteem reminded them of Lin Sheng's identity background and their own identity background.
So they said no.
But Russell was different, he was unwilling to lose Lin Sheng, a companion who was both a teacher and a friend.
"Master Lin... I..." He opened his mouth to say.
"Needless to say, although you don't agree with the path I want to take, if you run into trouble in the future, I still won't stand idly by." Lin Sheng said calmly.
"Sorry." Xia Yin got up and left without saying a word.
Ma Dilan also apologized, and quickly got up to catch up.
The two walked to the door of the hot pot restaurant and looked back at Russell.
"Let's go." Xia Yin called from afar.
Russell opened his mouth, looked at the door, and then at Lin Sheng.
"Master Lin..." The flesh on his face was twisted due to the tangle.
"Let's go." Lin Sheng smiled.
"Master Lin, if you are in trouble, you must tell me." Russell gritted his teeth and said seriously, "I have nothing to say if I can help."
"Go." Lin Sheng shook his head.
Russell gritted his teeth, but got up and chased him out.
Lin Sheng and Sa Lu were left behind, sitting beside the huge hot pot, looking a little cold and lonely.
"Hey, these little brats know a lot." Saru sneered.
"Saru." Lin Sheng shifted his gaze to him.
"Why do you want to know with me? I'm just from an ordinary family. Apart from my own strength in swordsmanship, I have nothing to rely on."
"Because I believe in you" Saru spread his hands. "You are the only one who can practice Naxi swordsmanship to your level. They don't understand.
I don't understand what it means to practice martial arts at your level. It's not about being interested and putting in some perseverance, you can achieve it after a few years of hard work. "
"So. You've seen someone like me before" Lin Sheng asked.
"My master is such a person. There are also many martial arts masters in the circle around me. They are sincere and sincere, and they can give up everything for martial arts."
Saru recalled the seniors he had met, with a hint of respect in his eyes.
"Perhaps some of them are already old and frail, and they are not as strong as me. But the perseverance, hard work, and sweat they put in for martial arts are far beyond what ordinary people can imagine."
"I've never seen such a person." Lin Sheng showed a trace of regret. "Did you give everything for martial arts?"
"That's right.. It's a pity that people have limits. The limit of physical strength, the limit of lifespan. In the end, how many of them are truly successful?" Saru seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes dimmed.
Lin Sheng was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Now that I have fallen out with Xia Yin and the others, there is no work for your junior brother. Do you regret it?"
Saru shook his head.
"There is something to give and something to gain. Isn't life always like this?"
"You can take it easy." Lin Sheng laughed and stood up, "Let's go, go back."
"good."
The two walked out of the hot pot restaurant, with Lin Sheng in front and Sa Lu behind.
Starting tonight, the Tekken Club will be officially split into two.
Before Lin Sheng left, he asked Saru to confirm in the club who would like to join the Iron Fist Mutual Aid Association. Let him record it and find another place to settle it.
Anyway, the venue in Heishui District is cheap.
Lin Sheng directly gave Saru 100,000 yuan as operating expenses. As long as the new site does not exceed 300 square meters, the rent is absolutely no problem.
As for the rest, we'll talk about that later.
At this stage, Lin Sheng plans to first determine who are the people who can truly trust him.
If nothing else, the number of people may be very small.
But it doesn't matter, what he wants is not a lot of people, but absolute trust.
After that night at the hot pot restaurant.
A small association called the Iron Fist Mutual Aid Society began to develop members within the club under the auspices of Saru.
Just as Lin Sheng expected.
Most of the people in the club only came here for their connections. I have no interest in his weakly connected mutual aid society.
In three days, Saru questioned all the club members.
As a result, except for his junior brother, no one was willing to join his mutual aid association.
Lin Sheng was not disappointed either, this was within his expectations. Just because there's no one in the club doesn't mean there's no one else.
The most important thing now is not this, but to find a way to make money.
... ... ... ... ..
... ... ... ... ..
late at night.
Jinhong Casino in Huaisha City.
As the largest open casino in the entire urban area, standing behind Jin Hong were the Chen brothers.
Because of this, no one dared to mess with Jinhong Casino in several nearby neighborhoods.
Since the tycoon Chen Hang officially handed over the casino to his son a while ago, Jinhong Casino quickly carried out a series of reform measures, which quickly made the business of the casino to a higher level and became more popular.
At this time, there was a lot of traffic and crowds in front of the casino gate.
Vehicles of various grades stopped in front of the casino gate in an endless stream, and left quickly after putting down the guests.
A large number of guests, either shoulder to shoulder, or sanctimonious, kept entering and leaving the entrance of the casino.
Those who went in looked expectant, and those who came out looked mournful.
There are also very few people who hugged the beauties of the casino when they came out, and they looked proud.
Lars Tu is one of them.
He won 170,000 in the casino in one go
This is the most he has won since entering the casino. So much so that when he came out, he was a little carried away, with a big wave of his hand, he wrapped up a casino girl paper, and when he came out, he was ready to take a taxi and open a room.
In the middle of the night, the streets were deserted, and after leaving the area of the casino, the surrounding atmosphere immediately returned to the normal night atmosphere.
At a glance, there are not many people or cars to be seen on the street.
Larstu shook his head, and with the support of his sister, he felt that he had drunk too much wine just now.
"If you don't have a car, you won't be able to wait for a while." My sister complained from the side.
"I should have known, I came here in my own car..." Larstu said drunkenly.
"But with so much cash in hand, it will be unsafe." The younger sister was a little worried.
"It's okay, who knew I had so much cash on me?" Larstu laughed twice.
Boom.
Suddenly a dull pain spread from the back of his head.
Larstu froze suddenly, rolled his eyes, and fell forward with a plop.
The girl in a short skirt at the side shuddered, and saw a man with a black scarf approaching quickly, before she could yell out.
Boom.
There was another muffled sound.
The sister paper fainted and fell to the ground together.
Ten minutes later, the cash on both of them was looted.
