Qiu Bo didn't know what to say, and his face was full of guilt. Facing Liu Leizhi's question, who helped him up, tears suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't hold back the tears that were about to flow down.
"sorry Sorry……"
Liu Lei also heard about the integration process of 'Fresh Times' from his and Zhu Xichun's mouths. He squinted his eyes and let go after Qiu Bo stood firm: "Is he your father's 'brother'?"
Qiu Bo arched his waist, bent his body again, nodded, and covered his face with his hands to cover his guilt, as well as his bitterness and helplessness.
On one side is my old classmate and good friend, and on the other side is the call from my father asking for intercession. It is obvious that my father is standing in his position of being a "brother". What can Qiu Bo do?
To persuade or not to persuade?
No matter what he did, it was all wrong. Even if he stood in a neutral position, he would not be accepted by either side, especially his father. The understatement on the phone made Qiu Bo face the father he had been afraid of since he was a child for the first time. He yelled and hung up the phone.
What is a misunderstanding, and what is a private settlement for two bucks?
Is it so easy?
No matter what happens here, during the interrogation process, the investigators will still remind the barely conscious person: "Hurry up and find a way to reconcile. If we go through formal procedures, the four of you will not be able to escape, and you will all need to bear corresponding legal responsibilities." ."
Zhu Xichun did not let Qiu Bo get in front of Wei Tao. He still felt sorry for his good friend who had always been inseparable from him. If this big boss got in front of Wei Tao, no matter what he said, how would this friend get along in the future?
Another kick, and he picked up Qiu Bo by the collar and threw him out of the emergency room door. He cursed: "Get out of here. You go home and tell that Sun Hai that this matter is not over yet. He will be sent to the sewing machine to count his luck." , whether you can send it in or not, please be careful. When you go out in the future, be careful of leaves falling and hitting your head."
Turning around, Zhu Xichun went to Wei Tao to apologize: "Taozi, don't blame me. I didn't want my brother to have to do anything."
Wei Tao smiled and indicated that he did not blame Qiu Bo. Every injustice has its owner and its debtor has its owner. No matter how this matter was played, he could see that Liu Dalong was willing to help, but he did not want to solve it privately. I am not really walking between the lines of black and white. Personal fierce self-preservation is one aspect. If something really happens, the most ideal solution in the end is to chase and fight on the side of legal principles. As for revenge, who will take revenge on whom? , still unknown.
An hour later, Wei Tao, who had just come out of a brain CT scan, saw Qiu Bo's father Qiu Shouming and his brother Sun Hai.
After being transferred to the ward, the hospital arranged for the thug he left behind to be placed at the other end of the corridor, completely separating the two parties. When Wei Tao came back, the two men were walking over from the other end of the corridor.
"Wei Tao, your uncle Sun was also impulsive. He drank some wine and said some irrelevant words. Several of his friends also followed the impulse and wanted to vent their anger for the old grandson. He had no other intention. Who knows what happened? It's all your family's business, don't make too big a fuss, it won't be good for anyone. Besides, you beat people pretty hard. Your uncle Sun is not an unscrupulous person. He has borne all the medical expenses. Look, …”
Because of Qiu Bo, Zhu Xichun did not scold Qiu Shouming who spoke up, while Wei Tao looked at the two people calmly. The eldest uncle Zhao Fenghua and the fourth uncle Xiao Jinghuai were both there. There was a big matter in the family, and it was the one who really made the decision. It has to be an old man.
"Uncle, if you open your mouth, let's not talk about the two families. Tonight, I also have friends who drink and drink too much. Tomorrow, he will lie here and I will bear the medical expenses. I said it's all my family and don't make a big fuss. Do you think it’s okay? If it’s okay, then I won’t pursue it.”
"Look at you kid, you are actually saying stupid things. How can things be settled like this? You also beat people very hard. In total, your responsibility may be greater. Your uncle and I have finally managed to appease you. Over there, if you insist on making a big fuss and leave a bad legacy at such a young age, your life will be over."
"I have more than 10,000 yuan worth of goods in my store, and several thousand dollars worth of goods and thousands of dollars worth of goods in my car. I was robbed in the morning, and I fought hard to defend the safety of my property. Four people beat one of me. Holding a stick, don't say that this matter cannot be defined. When this grandson asked people to trouble me, he didn't know that the door of our store was facing the small back door of the rest house. I didn't know there were sentries there. I didn't know where it was. Did you just install surveillance cameras?”
Qiu Shouming had a look on his face, but Sun Hai remained silent until now. Only now did his expression change slightly, feeling the huge trouble that this matter might cause. This little guy Wei Tao actually talked about being robbed, and there were surveillance images. Isn't this...
"Wei Tao, Lao Qiu and I are brothers who kowtow to each other. You and Qiu Bo are also good buddies. I did something wrong on impulse. If I do something wrong, I will accept the punishment. Let's not let Lao Qiu and his son be in trouble in the middle. Look, Is this okay? Just tell me the number and we'll settle it privately. You don't have to worry about the matters over there. I'll handle it. I'll bear the medical expenses or subsequent expenses." Sun Hai said: "Twenty thousand yuan Qian, your uncle Sun is not a errand man. If something happens, he can handle it. If you don't give in later, he will also give you a beating. What do you think?"
Wei Tao said calmly: "I'm not short of twenty thousand yuan."
"Thirty thousand."
"I'm not lacking."
Sun Hai's eyes became fierce: "Wei Tao, keep a line in your behavior. You don't even know them. There is no need to fight with them to death. If anything comes to me, I will bear it. If you really send a few of them in, you Will this orphan and widower be able to open a shop in the future?"
Wei Tao: "I reason with you, you talk to me about the law, I talk to you about the law, and you talk about favors to me. Why, none of them make sense, and you start to threaten me? I don't care about money, I just want to see, How much money can you spend to make the families of those four people accept the fact that the men in the family have to go in and use the sewing machine."
Sun Hai gritted his teeth: "One hundred thousand yuan, I won't take any more."
It has indeed reached the limit, but when faced with the result of calming down the trouble, Wei Tao does not agree with it. He knows that he will not suffer any loss and can still get 100,000 yuan, which is a big advantage. No one will think that he is easy to bully, so he still There will be a reputation that he will kill one of them four times. Not to mention him, many people in the world, faced with such a thing, it is one thing whether to retaliate later or not. Taking a heart-warming compensation now is undoubtedly the best choice, and it may also be a favor from the peacemaker.
One thing that is not a loss no matter how you calculate it. Wei Tao also guessed that if Liu Dalong is asked to help, he will ask for more money, and then persuade Wei Tao to talk about it later. It is not up to us to decide when we want revenge.
Jianghu is a matter of Jianghu, there is no need to hold a bottle of wine to apologize, the compensation is in place, there is a decent peacemaker in the middle, everyone can explain clearly, and expose this matter.
Sun Hai was not a gangster. At most, he had a few friends who yelled at each other, left the hospital, and looked for people to inquire. However, as Wei Tao said, the result was that there was evidence and one of them was held down on the spot. If you really want to be sure, just tell yourself. If he was robbed, then in the end, there is really no guarantee that there will be a "fence-proof" disaster.
Those three people were also found and taken for questioning. Although they had already agreed on the same tone, the facts were indeed as they said. It was a lesson. It was not about robbing each other's payment or smashing up each other's shop. But who could do this completely? You can tell clearly, after all, the car was smashed, and it was indeed four old men who went to beat a young man with sticks. These things cannot be changed no matter what.
It's one thing for someone to run away, but it's another for someone to be caught. It's very troublesome. The person he's looking for also told him that private reconciliation is the only most ideal way to deal with it, so as to save money and avoid disaster.
There is something I didn’t say, who asked you to find someone who is nothing, a four-on-one, sneak attack, armed, and let a kid kill one, what kind of players are they? If something goes wrong, you, the victim, can only contribute money and effort to get everything done. Otherwise, even if you are stranded there for a few months, you will still have to bear a large amount of expenses for the four families behind these four people.
I asked someone to find connections and find someone who could talk to me to act as a peacemaker. In the evening, I kept checking in the hospital, taking one film after another. The doctor also examined Wei Tao several times, who had a headache. , met Liu Dalong who had been busy working on his own affairs all day.
Before he came, his aunt and uncle also came, and they all found Zhao Fenghua to find connections. He did not intercede. He only came here to inform Wei Tao, and be mentally prepared, maybe some connections would come to him. Then he was dragged away by his aunt.
Human society is so helpless.
Qiu Bo could carry a knife and fight the person who hurt Wei Tao, but what could he do in the face of his father and his brother? Cut off the relationship between father and son? That's obviously impossible. As long as that's not the case, he has to be in a dilemma. He doesn't talk about right or wrong, just how to solve the problem. He can't have any ideas of his own.
"Xiao Tao, you can tell me about this matter. I will help you ask for it and let Sun Hai pay 200,000. How about finding an opportunity for you to vent your anger after a period of time?" What did Liu Dalong say? , Wei Tao had guessed it, and it was not much different from what he thought.
On his side, Liu Dalong comes forward. If the other party keeps begging for help, and finds someone Liu Dalong needs to fawn over or is afraid of, what can he do? He has seen this kind of thing many times over the years, and has even experienced it himself. , the other party spends an unbearable amount of money on impulse, you can also understand it as your own revenge.
Keep looking for people, don’t you need to spend money?
It’s done, don’t you need to thank me?
As long as Sun Hai decided to pay, someone would be able to find someone through multiple relationships who could make Liu Dalong bow his head and come forward to talk about whether reconciliation could be possible.
The farther the relationship, the more Sun Hai has to pay, and at the same time, he and Wei Tao must show more sincerity to complete the reconciliation.
The final result must be 'reconciliation'.
But what does this 'harmony' and 'resolution' look like in the end? Both sides are like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers. If Sun Hai could be sent to work on a sewing machine, Wei Tao would not consider reconciliation at all. Between sending a few thugs in versus making Sun Hai pay more, the basic condition for 'reconciliation' is the latter.
Seeing that Wei Tao was silent, Liu Dalong was worried that the young man's stubborn temper would show up and ignore him, so he smiled bitterly: "How about you contact Captain Cao? I have found a deputy director in charge of our industry, and they also There was a big brother who I often asked for help."
Ah.
Wei Tao believes that Liu Dalong has tried his best. If you don't climb to the top of this level of the pyramid, you are destined to have to admit in the face of compromise that I can accept compromise. Otherwise, what?
If Cao Haiyang can really come forward and say something, the level of "reconciliation" will be even higher. Wei Tao will never make this call, let alone not suffer a loss this time, even if he suffers a big loss, his teeth are broken and swallowed. , he will not allow himself to seek medical treatment in a hurry. What he can ask for must be something that I can come up with in exchange for mutual benefit. Otherwise, he will just endure it, wait, and work hard to make himself stronger.
It is not an inspirational story. It just tells you not to be impulsive and think that compromising and enduring is not a man's behavior. The result will determine who you really are.
"I can't wait long. If you have a grudge, it's never too late."
"That's okay, Wei Tao. You have to know that this incident is just a one-time incident. I have to rely on countless connections to settle the matter. The people who find me may not even know who Sun Hai is. They just get what they deserve." Things, if anything happens after the incident, that's another matter." Seeing that Wei Tao finally chose the most correct and only answer rationally, Liu Dalong slowly exhaled, sat down, and relaxed a lot. , he is indeed very optimistic about this young man, and everyone cooperates well. He does not want to be young because he still has the 'stupid' persistence of preferring to bend rather than bend.
