You earned 20,000 yuan a year ago. You worked hard for others, and you even felt that your life was full of hope, because as long as you worked hard, you thought your income could increase further. Then you bought a house, a car, and were planning to get another one. Second child.
At this time, the company tells you that due to poor management, the year-end bonus may be halved in the future, and the salary will be reduced by one-tenth.
Of course, the company has drawn you a pie, indicating that if you work hard, your income will definitely increase in the future.
You thought for a moment and finally agreed.
After all, you have been in this company for several years and have feelings. On the one hand, you are not used to resigning rashly. On the other hand, you need money for mortgages, car loans, children's schooling, etc., so at this time, you feel that the company is because of A little bit of poor management is acceptable.
You can give in step by step, step by step.
In the end, you knelt down, but the company felt that your kneeling was not up to standard. Then when you wanted to leave in anger, you found that other companies in the past few years had also done the same.
Of course, this is 2019. You have the right to choose no matter what, but the price is just higher.
But in Echeng, in this society where the evil warlords were ruthless and the squires were rampant, Sun Shouyi didn't even have the right to choose. He had no other way out than kneeling down.
I would rather be a peace dog than a person in troubled times.
In Echeng, Sun Shouyi still had to be charged by Huang Silang for renting Huang Silang's shop, but at least he could keep his basic dignity and the whole family would not starve to death. If he went to the two big families in the south of the city, it would be better to continue to be rented by Huang Silang. Exploitation.
After all, the two major families in the south of the city are darker.
Someone said, you can leave Goose City.
Question: Where to go after leaving Goose City? ? ?
Although Cannes, not far away, is rich, the rent there is higher, the competition is more intense, and the commission is also high. Moreover, Cannes is very exclusive, and outsiders have not been able to get any good development in the past.
Not to mention the other cities farther away, there is also no good development.
Let's put it this way, you can still stutter while kneeling in Goose City, but if you leave Goose City, you may become a refugee.
Therefore, Sun Shouyi sighed and said: "I want to leave, but the world is so big and full of pitfalls. I can only stay in Goose City."
"I understand, it's all set off by being in the same city."
Lin Zhendong sighed and said.
After all, this is a worse era. There is no worse, only the worst.
For Lin Zhendong, when he first watched "Let the Bullets Fly", he felt that the people of Goose City were really miserable. As Ma Bond said, it has been 90 years since the taxes of Goose City were collected, and the poor have no money to collect.
But even so, the people of Goose City are still alive.
Now that he thought about it carefully, he understood that on the one hand, Huang Silang was squeezing the poor people of Goose City, but on the other hand, he wanted to keep people like Sun Shouyi alive, just living a difficult life, working hard for survival every day, so that naturally There will be no time to think about other things.
This is one of them. Huang Silang provides the people of Echeng with the most basic material security, and at the same time draws a big picture for them. As long as they work hard for 50 years, they will be able to get a set of shops.
Secondly, Huang Silang would impose capital punishment on some people who were always willing to join forces, and some people who said they wanted to resist or revolutionize.
Therefore, the people of Echeng were afraid of the county magistrate, but they were even more afraid of Huang Silang.
"Why did Mr. Huang want to kill me? Mr. Liu, you are a good person. Can you tell Mr. Huang that I really didn't betray him? I didn't do anything."
Sun Shouyi knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Zhendong and said, "My son is only 5 years old, my daughter is only 3 years old, and my wife doesn't have a proper job yet. They all rely on me."
boom! boom! boom!
The pitiful and stupid little man in front of him kept kowtowing to Lin Zhendong.
He doesn't want much, as long as he can have a bite to eat, he is satisfied. He is not ashamed to kneel down. One-seventh of the income from his jelly shop has been taken away by the Huang family from the beginning, and now most of it has been taken by the Huang family. He left, but Sun Shouyi still retreated again and again.
He didn't think about resisting.
How to resist? ? ?
Mr. Huang is the most powerful person in Echeng. Even the county magistrate is humbled by Mr. Huang. How can he, a small person, dare to resist? ?
Make money for Mr. Huang, do things for Mr. Huang, let alone Mr. Huang, Sun Shouyi, who even kowtowed to admit his mistake when Wu Zhi punched him, couldn't understand.
Why is it like this? ?
Didn't I kneel thoroughly enough? ? ?
Why does it have to be my turn?
As a result, Lin Zhendong, who came to visit Sun Shouyi, only wanted to save Sun Shouyi's life.
He thought very simply, Mr. Huang is a bad person, and he must not be offended by evil people, but Mr. Liu is a good man, and if he offends a good man, he will be offended, so he will not kill himself.
There is no shame in kowtow.
Not shabby.
"Why should I help you??"
Lin Zhendong asked Sun Shouyi to stand up first, and he said to Sun Shouyi: "Do you know what will happen to me if the false accusation you made about me in the tea hall comes true? What will happen to the county magistrate??? "
"I, I, I don't know."
Sun Shouyi said timidly: "Sixth Master, I don't want to be like this, but if I don't do that, Master Huang might have to deal with me. I rent Master Huang's shop, and I have to support my family. I can't help it. You He is a good person, and you and the county magistrate are both powerful. Even if I frame you, I will not lose anything to you, but if I dare not agree, then Mr. Huang will..."
"Haha, are you being unreasonable??"
Lin Zhendong sneered.
Don't think that ordinary people are stupid, they are smart.
Sun Shouyi understood that if he offended Huang Silang, he might not survive because Huang Silang did not follow the rules, or in other words, the rules of Echeng were set by Huang Silang. He killed innocent people indiscriminately and preyed on the common people. These are all facts.
Even if Huang Silang let Sun Shouyi go, Hu Wan, Hu Qian, and Hu Bai would not let Sun Shouyi go. After all, Huang Silang was ruthless, and Huang Silang's dogs were even more ruthless.
In this way, even if Sun Shouyi gave him a hundred courages, he would not dare to offend Huang Silang.
But the county magistrate is different.
As we said before, if you offend the county magistrate, you will not go to jail, after all, you will still live.
"Wake up. You have been a dead person from the beginning when you framed me. Huang Silang will not keep you. By the way, what do you think your family will do if you die? Well, according to Huang With Shiro’s usual practice, your wife, children, and children will probably be abducted abroad. After all, I don’t believe you don’t know that Huang Shiro is in the business of human trafficking.”
Lin Zhendong looked at Sun Shouyi and said calmly: "I'm a very reasonable person. You framed me, but you were punished. So let's just let this matter go. I'm here to tell you, you won't get anything in jail for 7 days." If you choose, you will be punished if you make a mistake. My father put you in jail with one foot and released you with the other, so does the county magistrate still have any authority???"
Sun Shouyi started to cry: "But I..."
"Nothing but, besides, who told you that good people can be offended without restraint??"
Lin Zhendong gently patted Sun Shouyi on the shoulder and said, "Do you think I look like a bully?"
"Sixth Master!"
Sun Shouyi knelt down in grief and anger: "Sixth Master, save me."
"How can I save you??"
Lin Zhendong spread his hands: "I can't save you. You have to look at Huang Silang's face when you rent Huang Silang's shop. And if you ask Huang Silang, only he can save you. There is nothing I can do."
At this point, Lin Zhendong paused and said: "I'm just telling you, think about it carefully and entrust your wife and children to trustworthy people after you go out. I believe you will not have the courage to betray Huang Silang. Sometimes you have to be a little bolder. You will definitely be safe in prison for these seven days and have a good sleep."
"Sixth Master, Sixth Master, Sixth Master..."
Sun Shouyi originally thought that Lin Zhendong made him betray him, but he really didn't have the courage.
He would rather die than offend Mr. Huang.
But what Sun Shouyi didn't expect was that Lin Zhendong didn't make him betray, but just analyzed the matter with him.
Woohoo.
Sun Shouyi knew that what Lin Zhendong said was probably true.
With Huang Silang's character, maybe he really wants to kill him.
That night, Sun Shouyi did not sleep well.
In fact, Sun Shouyi was not the only one who had trouble sleeping.
Wu Zhichong, who was next door, also didn't sleep peacefully. How could he have imagined that he would be arrested and thrown into prison without any explanation.
Before today, he was Huang Silang's team training coach and a martial arts practitioner.
Now he's straight up a liar.
It's not just these two people.
Mabond also couldn't sleep.
He felt a little distressed. His wife was now sleeping with Zhang Mazi, and there was a green grassland above his head.
Moreover, Zhang Mazi was too domineering and exposed.
Want to stand?
Still want to make money? ? ?
How is this possible?
That's Huang Shilang.
Mabondang felt a little regretful. If he had known that Zhang Mazi was so unconventional, he would not have let Zhang Mazi come to Goose City.
I originally wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. If Zhang Mazi was killed by Huang Silang, then he could leave Kangcheng immediately and take office calmly. If Huang Silang was suppressed by Zhang Mazi, then Ma Bond could also make a fortune from it.
But looking at it now, it's not the case at all.
I thought that among Zhang Mazi's subordinates, Xiao Liuzi, his godson, was a reckless man, but I never expected that he had such a deep plan.
People should not be judged by their appearance.
"Goose City is too dangerous, so you need to be careful next time."
Mabond thought to himself.
But he was wrong about one thing.
His wife did not sleep on the same bed as Zhang Mazi. Zhang Mazi was chatting with Lin Zhendong in the study.
"Have you met Sun Shouyi??"
Zhang Mazi asked Lin Zhendong.
Lin Zhendong smiled and said, "See you."
Zhang Mazi said: "What do you think?"
"In any case, we are the county magistrate, and Huang Silang is the country squire. No matter how hard he goes behind the scenes, he still has to live up to his reputation."
Lin Zhendong said: "I think he will pick us up for dinner soon."
"oh??"
Zhang Mazi was a little surprised: "Liuzi, when you grow up, I have always been worried about your impulsiveness and recklessness and doing bad things. Now it seems that you have learned to use your brain."
"Dad, it won't work to play our bandits' tricks with these people."
Lin Zhendong said nonchalantly: "Huang Silang wants to reason, then we will reason with him, but how to reason is up to us."
Zhang Mazi laughed: "Yes, that's the truth."
"Dad, Master Tang..."
Lin Zhendong suddenly asked: "You..."
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Zhang Mazi said to Lin Zhendong: "Okay, you have been tired today, go back and rest."
"good."
After Lin Zhendong finished speaking, he left the study. He knew that Zhang Mazi was thoughtful, and he must have also known that Mabondang was a fake master and the real county magistrate.
Of course, Ma Bond is an old liar. Looking at some of Ma Bond's actions in "Let the Bullets Fly", Lin Zhendong felt that this guy never told the truth until his death.
The highest level of a liar is when he himself believes that what he is saying is true.
That's why Zhang Mazi didn't let Ma Bonde speak his mind.
It's very simple, since Mabond doesn't have a word of truth, then simply don't let him tell the truth.
However, Ma Bond is still a talent. The most important thing is that Lin Zhendong doesn't care that Ma Bond will lie to him.
Because Lin Zhendong has a lie detector, but he doesn't want to use it now.
A night of silence.
the next day.
"Lao Tang, what do you think???"
Zhang Mazi asked Mabondang.
Mabondang said with a smile: "Although this Goose City is headed by Huang Silang, the two big families in the south of the city cannot be underestimated, and the two big families in the south of the city are also at odds with Huang Silang, so I see, they invited you to come A banquet should be like a drunken man who is not interested in drinking."
"oh??"
Zhang Mazi raised his eyebrows: "How to say??"
"They know that you have a conflict with Huang Silang, so naturally they will see if they can win you over. At the same time, I think they also want to give you a beating."
Ma Bond said to Zhang Mazi: "I didn't tell you yesterday. If you want to be the county magistrate, you have to know how to kneel. Since you don't want to kneel to Huang Silang, then kneel to the two big families in the south of the city."
"I'm on my fucking knees."
Zhang Mazi slammed the gun on the table: "Lao Tang, let me tell you again, I came to Goose City with no intention of making money on my knees."
"That…"
Mabond knew Zhang Mazi's ability, so he frowned and said, "Then you can't just rob him."
"I am not a bandit now, I am the county magistrate. Can the county magistrate rob me?"
Zhang Mazi laughed: "I'm going to meet the two big families in the south of the city. I asked you to check. The two big families in the south of the city have never paid taxes."
"Brother, as I see it, what nonsense are you talking to them about??"
The third child said: "Just kill them."
"Lao San, remember, we are not bandits, we are officials."
Zhang Mazi said to the third child: "Put away your way of killing and killing, and then go and recruit some people for me. We can't do the whole county government with just a few of us."
"Liuzi, you go with me."
Zhang Mazi said to Lin Zhendong: "It's just the two of us."
"Brother, are you two in danger??"
The second child said worriedly.
Not only the second child, but also Ma Bangde said worriedly: "How about bringing a few more."
"No need."
Zhang Mazi said nonchalantly: "I have my own plan."
