Chapter 30: Call You Shi Lezhi
In the early morning of the next day, a few people came out of the restaurant belonging to the Viper Snake Gang at the dock outside the city. They first piled up red bricks to form a soil stove, then set up a large pot, washed it, poured in a large bucket of red soup and beef offals, and then took the fire and lit the firewood.
Not long after, the soup pot bubbling, exuding a salty, spicy and spicy smell. The unique smell of beef drifted away with the cold river breeze, attracting many early-wall coolies to come and inquire.
The shopkeeper took the opportunity to pull off the wine flag embroidered with poisonous snakes, and replaced it with a new sign with a round outside and square inside, with a single word "手机".
"Tongcai helpers recruit workers, three cents a meal, so you can be full!"
The restaurant guy didn't talk much, but the news contained attracted the attention of many people. Not only was the coolie who was working hard, but even the competitors came to see the excitement.
At this moment, a cargo ship was flowing downstream, and there were still no travelers contacted by the fixed chamber of commerce. The thugs from Tongcai Budian Restaurant rushed out immediately, shouting and clamoring for potential opponents, and at extremely low prices, we agreed to live the business!
Who do it for? Isn’t it all work? Soon three or four groups of fellow villagers from the village came to pick up the work.
After the cargo ship berthed, two hooked pedals were hung on the side of the ship and placed on the dock at the same time. The coolies stepped forward in an orderly manner and lined up in long queues, unloading large bags of goods on one end and the other end.
The thugs of the Tongcai Gang maintained order nearby and looked at their opponents fiercely. As a result, no one dared to take action, and there was not even a provocation!
As for the coolie who carried the bag, every time he unloaded a large bag of goods, the shopkeeper gave a bamboo chip, with only three words on it, "one penny"!
A cargo ship with a deep waterline floated upwards by a elbow after only a quarter of an hour. This shows that after deducting food, drinking, defecating, and sleeping, it is still a lot of money to travel this far away.
The boss got off the boat and walked around, urging in front and behind, and was protected by seven or eight burly men. In addition to being down-to-earth, he also took the opportunity to inquire about ways to make a fortune.
He saw a handful of bamboo chips in the dock unloading coolie holding a handful of bamboo chips, ranging from seven or eight, and there were more than a dozen.
Then, these people exchanged bamboo chips for money like designated restaurants. Most of them exchanged three bamboo chips for bowls and chopsticks, served brown rice, and surrounded a large pot to keep warm. They took the opportunity to stew rice in big mouthfuls, stretched out chopsticks from time to time, picked up a few chopsticks from the pot, trembling, and they were all meat.
The merchant ship owner stood in the limelight, sniffed the pot and smelled the aroma of beef.
"Well! There are also star anise, cinnamon, old ginger, pepper, and spicy food to remove the fishy smell and improve freshness, and I'm willing to do it!"
In fact, after knowing that the Dock Coolie could renew the meal for free, he didn't eat much, so he moved to change his position, secretly storing the rice and flavored beef offals into the dark pocket sewn on the inside of the outer garment, and preparing to take it back for his family to eat.
How could this trick be hidden from the old man in the restaurant?
However, when the new gang leader who came, shook his head gently, no one dared to talk too much.
The rice dumplings were on the top of the sky, and the red soup and beef offal were only spicy soup base and spices left. However, this breakfast completely convinced the hearts of the coolie at the dock.
When several upstream merchant ships came one after another, Tongcai helped the thugs grab business again, and the restaurant also set up a sign of recruiting people.
In a blink of an eye, more than a hundred and dozens of ragged dock coolies squeezed the restaurant into a mess, all for the sake of having a full meal.
The other gangs were naturally resentful that the business was robbed, but the Dock Coolie was not a slave who signed the contract to sell his body. His legs were on them. Who could take care of where they were willing to go.
Without enough coolies, several wharf gangs could not even negotiate the unloading transaction. After several times, the coolies from the wharf outside the city gathered on the territory of the Tongcai Gang.
It’s not a matter of money, but the food at Tongcai Bang Restaurant is really delicious!
"Eat a full meal for three cents? It's okay to give those poor people brown rice, but they actually give them beef. They are not afraid of fattening up the coolie's appetite. They will teach everyone that they have no money to make money!"
The hostile gang leader cursed indignantly, but unfortunately there were very few gang members who responded.
After all, even they rarely have the chance to eat spicy food. If they weren't really embarrassed, some people would have changed their clothes secretly and helped the restaurant with a few big bags, and first had a spicy hot pot beef.
When the sun was three o'clock, more than 200 coolies from the wharf outside the city gathered together to carry the bags and unload the goods for Tongcai, so that they could still take advantage of the situation when they were full.
In this way, let alone other gangs, even the several large chambers of commerce that presided over the dock trading transactions were affected.
A whip, slap, fist, and the useful methods used in the past are still not as effective as food being full.
Even if the person was pulled away, the coolies did not work hard, and frequently looked at the location of the red soup beef noodle pot, which was worse than not taking the job.
As a last resort, several officials from the Chamber of Commerce and the heads of the Wharf Gang went to the Tongcai Bang Restaurant together.
You Bifang did not come forward. After all, his position was not equal, and the opportunity for negotiation was given to the second in command, which excited Liu Zhihui. He was floating all over and almost forgot who he was!
The second leader, the Malaysian Golden Knife, sat at the negotiating table and said straight to the point: "From now on, the Viper Snake Gang will no longer exist. It is only the Tongcai Gang that can reach all over the world, make friends all over the world, be loyal to wealth, and appease the local Tongcai Gang!"
"Recently, our gang urgently needs manpower, and our gang's work in the docks and their people, we have all taken care of! If you need to use people, please speak out and ensure the price is fair and the old man is not deceived!"
As the new leader of the gang, the second leader, You Bifang's voice-over tube, drew out a thread in person and gave the bottom line. There was no room for retreat. In the future, the bargaining was all the extra items!
However, the officials of the Chamber of Commerce knew very well that once all the coolies on the dock were captured by the Tongcai Gang, they would become a unique business.
By then, Tongcai Gang will make a price at a price, and the money you lost today will be recovered in the future.
We are all foxes for thousands of years, so what are you playing in Chinese?
The chief manager of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce sneered at this and originally wanted to bargain and discuss it, but a cold wind blew, my mind was drowsy, I didn't know which stubbornness touched me, and a fierce evil fire in my heart was burning violently, and I temporarily lost my wisdom.
He snorted coldly, slapped the table, and walked away with his sleeves.
He has always relied on the powerful and deep roots of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce behind him, and has never suffered any pain since his debut. He did not know that the people in the world were sinister and that his wishes were not smooth, so he embarrassed them on the spot.
The second head of the army smiled dissatisfiedly, looking at the back of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce's chief manager, as if he was looking at a dead person.
"Everyone has seen it! It's not that our Tongcai Gang doesn't follow the rules, but that the Chamber of Commerce is powerful and does not give the brothers a way out. What do we want? It's just to support our family! He's good, asking for a lot of prices, and not being able to repay the money! What's the benefit for the Chamber of Commerce if everyone starves to death? Do you want his family to come out to carry the bags and unload the goods? A joke!"
The chief manager of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce has not yet walked away. When he heard the words coming from behind, he couldn't help but feel regretful.
However, it is me who left with a look of shame, and there is absolutely no reason to turn back.
"What's wrong with me? I can't hold back? Forget it, the Viper Snake Gang changed its name and changed its owner, and his approach was different from the past. I still have to find someone to discuss countermeasures as soon as possible!"
As soon as the Sihai Chamber of Commerce left, the others lost interest in negotiations and dispersed! The scene was indescribable. After all, they came in full force just now, but they decided to bow their heads. Now the situation has changed, which is not good!
In the Tongcai Gang restaurant, You Bifang attracted lazy insects and let them coil around their fingertips, swallowing the laziness and fatigue in their bodies. He was actually refreshed, quick-witted, and inspired by the wisdom bead.
"The method of three corpses and nine insects can be used like this? It's really an eye-opener! On the other hand, it teaches others to be slow in thinking and dizzy in mind, which leads to serious misjudgment forms and triggers a big and small disaster! Isn't it a powerful tool to curse ordinary people?"
