Zhuang Shikai returned the wine glass to the servant and walked towards the second floor.
Cai Yuanqi and Zhuo Jingquan saw Lei Luo and Zhuang Zai greeting each other, and wisely stayed in the front yard and where they belonged.
As soon as Zhuang Shikai walked up the stairs, he saw Lard Boy who was about to go downstairs.
Lardboy was very happy to see him going upstairs. He put his arms around his shoulders and said, "Zhuangzi, you came just in time. Come upstairs with me."
"Brother Luo has already asked you to go up to the second floor, but we were just having a meeting and I didn't call you in advance."
"Don't blame me!"
Lei Luo was just chatting with people from the four major families on the second floor, and Lardboy wanted to keep him company.
Brother Luo only went to the balcony to enjoy the breeze after arranging things.
You know, after Lai Hao's death, the entire white powder market in Hong Kong was vacated.
In addition, the "righteous group" under Lai Hao is about to collapse, and a large number of sites in Central, Kowloon, and the New Territories will also be vacated.
Baifen, bars, dance halls, gambling stalls, and all kinds of financial resources all need people to take over.
Today's dinner is not about celebrating the killing of the lame man, but about figuring out how to divide the cake.
Since Brother Luo dared to attack Lai Hao, he was naturally well prepared.
Everyone sat down to have a meal and chat, and it was obvious that the conversation was almost over.
Zhuang Shikai knew all these things well, and he knew that some things were just polite on the surface, but when they really involved big interests, he was not qualified to stand aside and listen, let alone have a hand in it.
So he quickly said to Lard Zai: "Brother Zai, you're welcome."
"Everyone is their own person."
Zhuang Shikai specially spoke the last words in Chaozhou dialect.
Lardboy smiled and said in Teochew dialect: "My own people, my own people."
Most of the brothers working around Luo Ge are Chaozhou people.
Lard Boy is, Zhuang Shikai is, even Wu Shihao is...
...
Second floor.
Lobby.
Zhuang Shikai was surprised to find that there were many people standing in the lobby, and it was different from downstairs. The people drinking wine downstairs were drinking tea on the second floor.
A total of eight bosses were sitting next to wooden chairs, all wearing cloth shirts, tapping the tea seat with their fingers.
Behind the other eight bosses, there is also a confidant standing behind them, who should be the leader who is accompanying them in the conversation.
There are sixteen people in total here alone, and there are two companion seats next to the main seat in the middle. One of the companion seats belonged to the lard boy, and the other companion seat was occupied by a suit boy.
When Lardboy opened the wooden door, everyone in the lobby glanced at them.
Lard Zai leaned next to Zhuang Shikai and introduced in a low voice: "Zhuang Zai, the four people sitting on the left are the leaders of the four major families, and the four people sitting on the right are the talkers of the four major societies."
"In the future, Laihao's white powder business will be taken over by the four major families, and the land and shops will be divided among the four major associations."
"Just remember to say hello."
"I understand, Brother Zai." Zhuang Shikai nodded and found that the white powder business and the territory were clearly divided. Business is business, and territory is territory. This shows that the profits from the white powder business are enough to exceed the sum of interests such as casinos and protection fees.
Regardless of the four major societies or the four major families, Zhuang Shikai felt embarrassed by most of the people sitting on the stage. On the contrary, it was the confidant behind the eight old guys, who looked more and more familiar to Zhuang Shikai.
After asking later, I found out that behind the four major families stood three people: Ni Kun, Lin Kun, and Zhu Tao. Behind the four major societies stood Jiang Tiansheng, Lin Huaile, Luo Tuo, and Lian Haolong.
"The leaders of the four major families are called Agui, Asen, Brother Sheng, and Chaozhou Zhou. The four major societies are Dongxing, Hongxing, Liansheng, and Zhongxinyi."
"Now the boss of Dongxing is Dabi Lin, the boss of Helian Sheng is Deng Tianbo, the boss of Hongxing is Jiang Zhen, and the boss of Zhongxinyi is called Wang Bao." Lardboy noticed that Zhuang Shikai was still staring, and explained specially The identities of the eight bosses at once.
In fact, he is not looking at the big guys.
Instead, we are looking at the leaders behind the big guys.
It seems that he has gained a lot from this lap. The biggest feeling is that his level is different.
What Ni Kun, Lin Kun, Zhu Tao, Jiang Tianyang...
A famous character in the movie?
Tsk.
Just a junior!
It's not their stage yet, but it's time for Zhuang Shikai to take the stage.
Being a generation above them, I don't know how happy I feel.
The advantages of being reborn in the 1970s are revealed!
However, compared to the new generation such as Jiang Tiansheng and Lin Huaile, the older generation characters on the scene have few or even no scenes in the movie.
Zhuang Shikai only knew two big men of his generation.
One is Deng Tianbo, who is fat and leans on crutches, and the other is Wang Bao, who is powerful and honest, and looks similar to his men.
Loyalty, Xinyi and Hong Xing should be the rules passed down from father to son. Lian Haolong should be Wang Bao's son, but I don't know why one is named Wang and the other is Lian. They most likely take their mother's surname.
Among the characters of the next generation, there was only one person Zhuang Shikai didn't recognize, and that was Ma Zai behind Chaozhou Porridge.
As soon as Zhuang Shikai saw the appearance and temperament of that man, he felt that he was a soy sauce guy.
Use sauce-colored goods as the leader?
Teochew Porridge is so inferior compared to other big players.
It is estimated that it will easily fall into the street.
Zhuang Shikai needed to pay attention to politeness, so he quickly looked away and followed Lard Boy towards Brother Luo.
At this time, Lei Luo was walking back from the balcony. Zhuang Shikai came up to greet him solemnly. Lei Luo waved his hand and said, "Give Zhuang Zai a chair. Let's all sit down and drink tea together."
When the people present heard this, they looked at Zhuang Shikai differently. I don’t know how such a young man could win Brother Luo’s favor.
However, Brother Luo then took the initiative to press his shoulder and said, "What happened to Laihao today was Zhuangzi's doing."
"This young man is really impressive."
"Ha ha."
Lei Luo laughed loudly and returned to his seat.
Zhuang Shikai's face was expressionless, but he always wore a polite smile.
The big guys present had ugly expressions, not knowing what Lei Luo meant.
Simply optimistic about a young man.
Or is this a way to demonstrate against them?
The thoughts of big shots are always unpredictable. Only Lardboy knew that it was both. Brother Luo really liked Zhuang Shikai.
At this time, someone had already added seats, made a cup of hot tea, and placed it next to the mahogany tea seat.
After Zhuang Shikai sat down, Lei Luo picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Chaozhou Porridge, Dabi Lin and other big bosses also picked up the tea cup and drank tea.
Zhuang Shikai joined everyone in toasting tea, covering his face with his sleeves during the whole process, so as not to be embarrassed in terms of etiquette.
However, when he put down the tea cup, Zhuang Shikai's eyes exchanged with Chen Xijiu opposite him. Zhuang Shikai smiled at him, and he also smiled at Zhuang Shikai.
The two of them looked at each other in a flash. It was clear that Zhuang Shikai was just a plainclothes man, but Chen Xijiu, who was the detective of Shau Kei Wan District... looked at him with a hint of cowardice?
"This is too much!"
"I'm a good person! Why are you looking at me like this!" Zhuang Shikai didn't want to accept this look.
Because he is the kindest and good person on the scene.
Why did Chen Xijiu look at him like this?
