Hardman's attempt at Tianfu Douhua Restaurant was very effective.
Because of his ruthless reputation in Nancheng, the next day, the boy who was beaten, and his brother Ma Huzi, honestly sent money to Nian Jing.
And the Ma brothers not only repaid the principal of Nian Jing's 20,000 yuan, but also paid an additional 2,000 yuan in interest.
At the same time, he fully complied with Hadmen's request and expressed his apology to Nian Jing with great fear.
After saying all the good things and giving me enough face, I just missed having to kneel down and kowtow to Nian Jing on the spot.
Facts have proved that evil people will have their own troubles.
What a "sloppy kid" is, it's just a toy to scare children. You still have to bow your head to the real villain.
Some people may think these two brothers are stupid, thinking that since they have money, why don't they run away?
One earth has seven continents, eight oceans, 233 countries and regions, and more than 50,000 islands.
Where in the world can’t you go?
Why do you have to be so humble and humiliate your country?
Not only did he get beaten and lose money, but more importantly, he lost his face and dignity.
Thanks.
Don’t forget, this is an era with limited information and imperfect laws.
People at that time were not well-informed, especially people in the capital. They generally felt that even the most beautiful city was still in such chaos. What was it like outside?
The two Ma brothers were not from time travel or rebirth, so the port city was prosperous. While they felt envious, they were also afraid.
They really thought it was like what was shown in movies and TV shows, where every day there was either a fight between gangs or a fight between police and robbers.
In the big shopping malls on the streets and alleys, people are constantly fighting with guns like they are frying beans.
This is the limitation of the times.
In addition, the profession of gangster is also very special.
This industry is no different from other industries. In this kind of profession, you have to smoke just outside your home. It’s not worth it if you go to a different place.
Who is pissing on you in an unfamiliar place?
Think back then, was Du Yuesheng, the powerful tycoon in Shanghai, a good person?
Although there are so many disciples and disciples, the seniority of the Youth Gang is also high, but since they moved to Hong Kong City, they are not accustomed to the local environment, and the more they mix, the worse they get.
This is called a strong dragon but not a local snake.
Even because of this, the gangsters went to other places to hide their names, and it was difficult for them to live a stable life.
Because people who live in society all wear portraits, leaving traces of them.
Unless you don’t go out, just going out for a walk can easily cause trouble and cause unnecessary disputes.
Take the Ma brothers as an example. When they go out, others cannot look at them, otherwise it will be regarded as provocation.
Hey, if you dare to take illegal photos, you are so fucking arrogant! Hit you!
(Note: Guilin Zhao, a slang term, is also called Zhao Yaner, which refers to looking at each other eye to eye)
So gangsters must worship the mountain when they go to a different place, just to avoid misunderstandings and disputes.
Let’s just put it this way. Since ancient times, there have always been only two types of people who are willing to leave their homeland and go to other places.
There is a kind of person who has great abilities and a big heart, but the place of origin is a small place. Because he is unwilling to leave, he actively looks for a great future and room for development.
Just like Hartung, the Jewish rich man who made his fortune in Shanghai, and Pierre Cardin, who ran from Italy to France, and then from Paris to the Republic.
The phrase "golden scales are just like things in a pond, they turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds".
The other is those who are desperate and cannot stay any longer, and are forced to run away.
Just like those White Russian nobles and Jews who fled to us because of the war, those Shandong people who broke into Guandong, the godfathers who ran from Sicily to the United States to escape disaster, and Xu Wenqiang who ran from Peking to Shanghai, Nothing more than that.
As for the Ma family brothers, they are actually the kind of people who are decent among the gangsters in the capital.
Not as good as above but more than below, and not very motivated or ambitious.
They think it's good to be a bully at home, bully ordinary people, and live a life of drunkenness and dreams.
It’s nothing to endure a momentary humiliation. Anyway, if you lose it here, you can’t get it back from somewhere else.
Of course, I am neither willing nor necessary to be a "dragon crossing the river".
To put it bluntly, if they really had the courage and ambition to take risks outside, they would not be hooligans.
Now that they are cowardly, this is the best choice for them.
So this fulfilled Hardmen's case.
Nian Jing talked about this matter for several days. From then on, he became closer to Hadmen and felt that his ability completely made up for his shortcomings.
Moreover, I had already informed my superiors about the money I got back, and got permission to write it off as a dead account.
Now that he gets it, he doesn’t need to record it in his account. At least he can keep a large part of it.
For this reason, in order to reward Hadmen for relieving his anger and giving him a fortune, Nian Jing gave the extra interest to Hadmen in return.
But to be honest, where is this? Hardmen's ability to do things has not been fully reflected in such a small thing.
Next, Hardmen quickly helped Nian Jing recover two larger and more difficult debts. This was what really made him stand out in Nian Jing’s mind. The reason for the splendor.
One of these two accounts was that Nian Jing took the initiative to talk about something at the wine table in Tianfu Douhua.
Nian Jing told Hardman that there was another company called Longde Development Company that also owed him more than 60,000 yuan in payment.
As an affiliated leather bag company, the person in charge of this company is more like a liar than the Ma brothers, because he has disappeared in the capital for a long time and cannot be found at all.
But it doesn't matter, Hardman said, "Don't worry, no one is a monkey who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, as long as they have relatives and friends."
In the next few days, he dispatched his subordinates Brother, send someone outside to inquire about relevant information.
After asking around, I found out that the person in charge of Lunde Company had a biological sister who lived in a family building of a government agency.
After Hardman got the news, he paid a visit according to the address.
He did this very skillfully, and he solved the trouble with just a lighter.
After knocking on the door, Hardman didn't give the liar sister a chance to close the door at all. He just used his physical strength to force his way in, and then politely expressed his intention.
It should be said that the woman was a bit brave. She had seen some battles and was not frightened by the situation of people breaking in.
Not only did she refuse to explain the whereabouts of her brother, she also said that her brother had no money to repay his debts.
Then he also mentioned the name of a powerful veteran in Nancheng, saying that the small landowner in Tianqiao was his classmate, and wanted to scare Hardman.
But in the end, this girl was so smart that she was fooled by her cleverness. It would have been better if she didn't mention the person, but this mention actually hit the point of the gun.
Hardman couldn't control his joy and laughed. "Oh, the little landowner is your classmate? That couldn't be better. Your classmate still owes me more than a thousand. He has been hiding from me for more than a year. I have been looking for him all over the world. So you know him? It saves trouble, so I’ll ask you for these two accounts.”
Then Hardman walked into the kitchen and opened the valve of the gas tank.
When he returned to the outhouse, he lit the lighter and said, "I'll keep the fire going until I can't light it anymore. If you have the guts, just follow me. Otherwise, think about it and find out where your brother is." Tell me, it’s better to pay him back.”
The woman panicked and immediately wanted to stop him.
Unfortunately, Hardman was blocked outside the kitchen door by the big and round waist, and he had no ability to escape at all.
Just like that, looking at Hadmen's cold eyes and the lighter burning with a small flame in his hand, the woman was completely frightened.
After all, it was just a woman who was just tough-talking. She honestly wrote to Hadmen where her brother lived in Huairou.
This time, although Hardman did not do all the work after finding the person, he still recovered about 50,000 yuan from Nian Jing.
There is another account, which is to go to a company to collect the account. The difficulty lies in the location where the account is required.
Considering that the place where accounts are required is a public-to-public environment, it is also the opponent's home court with a large number of people.
Hardman changed his approach again this time. He brought two brothers to build up the momentum and got a red plastic bucket with a lid as a prop.
In addition, he also had a living creature brought from him, tied tightly with tape, and stuffed inside.
The CEO of this company received them in the spacious office.
When he saw them opening the lid and taking things out of the plastic bucket, the general manager of the company couldn't help laughing, and once said with disdain, "That's it, who are you scaring?"
As a result, Hardman waved his hand, and the brother next to him immediately took out another bottle from his military satchel, a bottle filled with colorless liquid.
Then he pulled out the rubber stopper and poured half the bottle of liquid on the living creature.
The inside of the barrel suddenly became miserable, and the screams of the dying struggle were even more frightening.
The boss then realized it was sulfuric acid.
Hardman said at this time, "Now I'll give you ten seconds to think about it. Just tell me whether you have the money to pay back the debt. If you really don't have it, I'll pour the remaining half of the bottle on you today." Ya is on the hook, and we will pay off the debt, including the cost of Ya’s treatment. You are allowed to call in advance and call an ambulance.”
Then he deliberately aimed at the place where the boss would die.
Just like that, Hardman didn't even have time to count, and the boss got scared.
He kept shouting "stop", and without saying a word, he called the treasurer to get money, and he settled the account happily.
From then on, Nian Jing treated Hadmen as if he were a brother, and the relationship between the two became increasingly close.
In these two accounts, Nian Jing not only allocated some money to Hadmen, but also began to accept his goods again, and the purchase price was directly raised one notch.
Privately, Nian Jing would also take the initiative to invite Hadmen to go to some newly opened entertainment venues more frequently.
He was deeply grateful for everything Hardman had done for him, and he began to realize that in his career, he could not lack a friend like Hardmen, who was old-fashioned and warm-hearted.
As for Hadmen, he didn't raise his tail because he helped Nian Jing. He didn't even like to show off or brag about these things in front of Nian Jing.
Especially when his brothers discovered through this incident that people become extremely cowardly as soon as they have money, they suggested that Hardman could run a side business of helping people collect debts in order to collect more money. for generous commissions.
Hadmen still firmly refused.
So much so that behind his back his brothers were worried that their eldest brother was out of his mind and couldn't understand why Hardman didn't reach out for such easy money.
Actually, it’s not for anything else, but because Hardman, as a former laborer who was released from labor, had failed in the stamp market. He had long been tempered by life and no longer had any irritability.
He helped Nian Jing do this kind of thing simply because Nian Jing was his noble person, the only person who could support him, guide him, and bring him a truly comfortable life.
It's okay occasionally, but he doesn't want to take this risk for a long time.
In fact, during the recent days when he had one meal but no next meal, Hardman often thought about life and summed up his experiences and lessons of gains and losses, successes and failures.
Although with his knowledge and insight, he could not understand the nature of speculation.
But the ups and downs of life, big and small, are like mountains.
Before climbing over a mountain, Hardmen only had this mountain in front of him.
But after turning over, the scenery in front of him naturally changed.
The original mountains are still there, but the world has become wider, the horizons have become broader, and the mind has become broader.
Although climbing is tiring and no one wants to climb such a big mountain, fate always forces people to climb mountains.
After Hardman climbed through the mountains of prison and failure to speculate on stamps, he naturally had a different understanding of life.
Now, he cherishes the opportunity to make money from building materials on construction sites.
He doesn't want to be distracted by other things, thinking that this is the most real thing that can be seen and touched.
It’s a bit tiring and a bit troublesome, but the advantage is that the water flows slowly and you can see your wealth growing every day, which is very stable.
On the other hand, he knew that it was not easy to be the boss of a gangster.
In order to convince the public, you must not only be the most capable, but also the wisest, the most just, and the most energetic.
And there is no legal space for survival under the system. It can only be successful for a while, but it is difficult to be successful forever.
To be honest, ever since I saw how people like Nian Jing made money in business.
Hadmen began to be surprised at how easy it was for these upper class people in society and those with official backgrounds to make money.
He couldn't help but think that if even these cowardly fools could easily make a lot of money from it, then there was no reason why he couldn't do it.
But why doesn't he have such a chance?
The key is background and useful connections.
So he is now holding Nian Jing's thigh tightly, hoping that one day he can use Nian Jing's resources to completely clear his name and go ashore.
He hopes that he can become a businessman who can walk under the blue sky and be protected by the system as soon as possible.
His current pursuit is not only to make a fortune, but he also never wants to experience the feeling of being defeated again.
What he longs for is that a few years later, when the current gangster brothers have become orphans and ghosts, he himself can become a decent celebrity who interacts with the upper class.
Everyone has to have a dream. What if it comes true?
