Lianliankan

Chapter 180
One month later, at twelve noon, on the street at the intersection of Shek Kip Mei and Sham Shui Po, amidst the sound of firecrackers and lion dance, Fook Lam Moon Restaurant officially opened.

Zhao Ye, dressed in a suit and tie, with a small red flower pinned to his chest, stood at the door with a group of younger brothers, welcoming all the people who came to join him with smiles on their faces.

After seeing that everyone was almost there, he left the plane and waited for his cronies to greet the lower-level brothers in the lobby. Zhao Ye himself came to a box on the second floor, opened the door and was about to say a few polite words, but saw a table of people inside He held his breath, and the atmosphere was heavy, just like a memorial service.

Zhao Ye was a little confused, but still put on a smiling face, walked to the seat between the fire and the fire, and sat down, lifted the bottle to pour wine for everyone, and joked: "Why, everyone thinks I can't entertain you. week?"

Because the people present are all descendants of Huoshui, so Huoshui did not hide it, but said openly: "I just received the wind, last night the uncles of the club got together and discussed about promoting Cobra as a seat." .”

Startled, Zhao Ye turned around and asked Huoshui, "Didn't you say that you are sure?"

When Huoshui heard this, he swept the bowls and chopsticks in front of him to the place, and cursed: "I also feel that I'm a goddamn sure thing. Those old ghosts obviously accepted my 50 yuan and promised to choose me, but in the end But playing Lao Tzu, a group of old people, I must make them look good."

Originally, Zhao Ye didn't care about whether Huoshui should sit in the restaurant, but now the plan has changed. If this guy doesn't get the job, it will definitely affect his position, so he asked anxiously: "Is this news reliable? Is there any possibility of change?"

Huoshui didn't know what Zhao Ye was thinking, and he thought he was simply worrying about himself, and said with relief, "Good brother, big brother saw you right!"

After boasting, he sighed: "Oh, the day after tomorrow is the day of the meeting. In such a short period of time, it may be quite difficult to get those bastards to change their minds."

"Then have you ever asked why they chose Cobra?"

Huoshui replied disdainfully: "Why else, see the money! Uncle Ming told me privately that Cobra gave 100 million to each of the eight old ghosts who were in charge of voting for this election."

Knowing that this was the reason, Zhao Ye couldn't help but feel relieved, and immediately suggested: "Since it's for money, then it's easy to handle, let's give it away, and each person will give 200 million, so we can't let it fall by the wayside."

Huoshui's eyes flashed, pretending to be suspicious: "You pretend I don't want to, but where can I find so much money all of a sudden, others don't know about my situation, don't you guys know about it?
In the past few years, I have only looked at the scenery, but Sham Shui Po is not as good as those big oil and water areas such as Wan Chai and Tsim Sha Tsui. In addition, there are a lot of younger brothers under my hand to support, so I am poor.

To tell you the truth, the 400 million that I gave out for the selection of the restaurant this time was all made up by me. If this continues, I can't even afford the younger brother's family expenses. "

After the sale was over, Huoshui glanced around the crowd present, and seeing that no one was answering, he finally said:
"But I thought about it for a while, and what Artillery said is indeed reasonable. This matter really cannot fall by the wayside, otherwise not only the previous 400 million will be in vain, but when Cobra takes over in the future, my life will definitely be difficult.

I think this is good, the six of you sitting here help to raise 1000 or [-] million. As for the money, I will take it as the boss who lent you.When I become a sitter, I will definitely return it to you intact! "

As he said that, he looked at Zhao Ye and Huo Po on the left and right: "Huo Pao, Huo Po, who knows outside, you two have been with me the longest, and are my confidantes, so you can set an example for other brothers! "

Huo Bao was calm at first, and gave Zhao Ye a look that made him understand, and then saw him stand up, and said righteously:
"Brother is right. We are all grasshoppers on the same rope. How do you say that? If one loses, the other prospers. If the big brother is having a hard time, then those of us who are younger brothers will only get worse. It’s hard, so in order to support my eldest brother’s smooth selection of the seat, I’m willing to go all out, and I’ll offer 300 million!”

It seems that this huatou was started by Zhao Ye, but everyone sitting here is not an idiot, so they still can’t understand it. It’s clear that Huoshui and Huoma are singing the double reed together to force them to submit .

While thinking this way, everyone turned their attention to Zhao Ye at the same time, wanting to see what he had to say, but they were disappointed. Zhao Ye did not object, but expressed his position following Huo Po's voice:

"I have to say a word of righteousness when I come out. Although I am not as good at making money as a hot pot, I am obliged to help my brother. I will go to the bank tomorrow and mortgage all the properties under my name. 300 million out!"

As soon as Zhao Ye uttered such powerful words, Huoshui was overjoyed, and immediately clapped his hands and applauded: "Good brothers, show loyalty, big brother thank you!"

With the promise of the two fierce men, Huo Po and Zhao Ye, the rest of the people had nothing to say, no matter how reluctant they were, they could only make a gesture of loyalty, expressing that they would contribute money and efforts.

On the side of Huoshui, seeing that the purpose of coming today has been achieved, he is in a good mood, and he keeps calling everyone to drink and change.

After a few glasses of wine, Zhao Ye was enjoying listening to dirty jokes, when suddenly he heard a noise coming from outside, he immediately apologized, got up and walked to the handrail on the second floor, and looked towards the noisy place.

Seeing this, Zhao Ye immediately became furious. At the bottom of the stairs, Luo Huiling and the others were stopped by a few flying boys, and one of them even reached out to touch Ruan Mei's face. blocked.

Before he had time to think about it, Zhao Ye quickly went downstairs to the scene of the incident, grabbed the hair of the person who wanted to touch Ruan Mei, and mercilessly gave him two loud slaps, breaking his lips and teeth Finally, he asked coldly: "Which hand was dishonest just now?"

This little brother was already stupefied by what happened in front of his eyes, and he couldn't care less about staring at him, he trembled and begged for mercy: "Brother Huo, Huo Pao, I, I was wrong, I don't know..."

"I asked which hand you moved?"

"Brother Huo Pao, I'm a big-eyed jackal, so please forgive me."

Seeing that he couldn't make a name for himself, Zhao Ye didn't bother to waste any more words, and directly ordered the plane: "Pull it to the back, and you can figure out what to do!"

"Brother Huo Pao, I was wrong, I will never dare again..."

The plane didn't care how the man begged for mercy, and dragged him towards the back kitchen.

Seeing this situation, Ruan Mei was afraid that something big would happen, so she quickly tugged on Zhao Ye's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Forget it, I'm fine anyway, so don't make a big fuss."

Zhao Ye patted her hand and replied with a smile: "It's okay, I think that guy drank too much, let someone take him to sober up."

"Really?"

Ruan Mei was skeptical about this, and when she wanted to ask again, she was urged by Zhao Ye: "Okay, stop talking, don't forget that mother-in-law is still at home, waiting for you to bring delicious food back !"

As he said that, he waved to Ah Guang, asked him to go to the back kitchen to pack a few good dishes, stuffed them into Ruan Mei's hands, and personally sent her and Luo Huiling to the door, watching them leave.

After finishing all this, Zhao Ye returned to the box and continued to drink with Huoshui and others.
