Chapter 83 Getting Ready
I did a brief treatment on the upper floor of the Baguamen Martial Arts Hall, with bandages wrapped around my hands, Lu Li stood at the window and looked down. Everyone had already left. Guo Yongsong and Sensen were also carried to the hospital for treatment. This made him a little scared: I won’t tell them like the first time I came again, right?
"Mr. Lu, please have tea." Gu Zhong stood beside him respectfully, holding a teacup in his hand.
"Now..." Lu Li looked around for a week, and then he noticed that the place had become very deserted. Apart from Gu Zhong, there was only the one named Amao and one or two guys who looked familiar. "Don't you have many people? Why are they not here?"
Amao said it aloud, but Lu Li couldn't understand it at all. Gu Zhong winked at his partner and explained on his behalf: "Mr. Lu, after the Bagua Sect and Baji Sect, to be precise, after you left Hong Kong, Baji Sect came to make trouble several times, and the disciples under the sect couldn't bear it and all quit. You also saw that there are only these people left now."
"I understand. What are you going to do next?"
"The master left the Sparrow Hall to me, and I can't let my master down. No matter how difficult it is, I have to take it!"
Luli nodded, "The so-called people must save themselves before they can be saved. But when I came in just now, I saw that there were no one in the sparrow hall downstairs? Are you worried?"
"Yes, Guo Yongsong brings people here every day to stir up trouble. Who dares to come here to play cards? This is the fourth consecutive week, and no one comes to the door every day."
"Isn't Hong Kong so serious? Why don't you look for them?"
Gu Zhong and Amao looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They knew that he did not understand the rules here, so they had to patiently explain to him, "There is indeed a jingju. In theory, it can really solve some problems for us. But in the eyes of those in the world, finding official ways such as jingju as solutions is very despised. Generally speaking, among the many martial arts schools in Hong Kong, problems will only be solved in the way of jingju. Just like what you saw just now - opening a martial arts school in Hong Kong is also a lie. These people are afraid of jingju. How could they take the initiative to find them?"
"Then, where is Jingzha? Don't care if you know?"
"Of course, we have to manage it, but the two people rarely exclaim when facing Jingjian's inquiry. Over time, Jingfang will not have too much hope for it. As long as there is no serious conflict or extremely bad influence, they will not interfere."
"I understand." Lu Li said: "I... I'm going to hide it from you, and I'm worried that if I hurt Guo Yongsong, there will be a sensation to come to me."
"You can rest assured that unless Guo Yongsong makes up his mind and doesn't keep going in the Hong Kong martial arts circle, he will never dare to do this."
"Yes, Mr. Lu, don't worry. If Guo Yongsong does this, he will break the rules. Even the fellows in Hong Kong cannot let him go!" Amao said slowly, "However, Mr. Lu, this method is not good, but there are ways to invite experts to help the boxing - well, you may be troubled in the future."
Lu Li nodded and didn't say anything; he didn't say anything, but Gu Zhong felt a little sorry. After all, it was a matter within his own sect, and it had nothing to do with him! "Mr. Lu, because of our affairs, you were implicated for no reason..."
Lu Li smiled, "Mr. Gu..."
"Just call me A Zhong."
"Okay, Ah Zhong, let me tell you, my creed in dealing with people is to be provoked without any trouble, and not be afraid of anything! When I was in charge of this little business, I had to be responsible for it to the end. You don't have to worry about this."
"Yes, Mr. Lu is eager to be righteous, and we can also know a little about it, but... Mr. Lu, you can ask for any requests. We will find a way to satisfy you."
"For the time being..." Lu Li thought about it and suddenly came to an idea, "A Zhong, if, I mean, if you don't want to say what I next said, or don't agree, just pretend I haven't said it. You can rest assured that I will still provide full help in the gossip.
Gu Zhong was shocked and nodded in a daze, "Yes, you said?"
"I would like to ask you, can you transfer this sparrow hall to me? I want to use it to do business."
"This..." Gu Zhong and Amao exchanged a look, and the latter made a decisive lip shape. When Lu Li saw it, he pretended not to understand, and just stared at him with a pair of black and white eyes. "This, Mr. Lu, you have helped us a lot. What is a small sparrow hall? But this matter is not something I can decide. I have to ask my master, he is. Can you wait for me for a few days?"
"sure."
"Then, Mr. Lu, can I ask you, what business do you want to do?"
"Selling mutton hotpot, and speaking to you Hong Kong people is just a side stove."
"Fight...fight...fight..." Gu Zhong repeated as if he was stuttering, and naturally, Hong Kong people also ate hot pot, but they did not take it out to do business! "Is this... OK?"
"Okay, earning and losing are my business. Now I just want to ask if you are willing to sell the Sparrow House. If you have to agree, I will start to arrange decoration and other things. If you have to disagree, I will find a way to find another place to open the business-oh, by the way, I will tell you that if you agree, you and your friends can participate in my business."
Gu Zhong smiled reservedly, but he was very dissatisfied. He was not very familiar with mainland tourists like Lu Li, so he could say these words. Before he could do anything, he wanted to work for him? "Then, Mr. Lu, I thank you first."
Lu Li just glanced at him and guessed his mind. He didn't explain at the moment and nodded to Amao and the others, "Then, Azhong, today's matter is here. I think they won't come again for a while. If there is something, you know where to find me."
"Yes, Mr. Lu," Gu Zhong sent him to the door of the Sparrow Pavilion, and the two shook hands and parted.
Before Gu Zhong could return to the upper floor, he heard Amao's loud voice, "...**He is an old mother! Old guest is really a 9-un-eight! I thought I had helped us two fights and I would have to exchange the Sparrow House? Tell him that there was no door! If you want to help, if you don't want to help, you won't be able to support him. If you don't, you will be able to report it! Fuck! Brother Zhong, what do you say?"
"Don't say that, he just asked whether he should be right or not. What are you in a hurry?"
"I just don't like his smug behavior. Do you bite me?"
Gu Zhong laughed. He and Amao were old friends for many years. They laughed at each other without any offense. "Amao, is the old lady in the family okay?"
Amao's father was a seafarer. Once he went to sea, he encountered an accident and his body was gone. Shortly afterwards, his mother eloped with another man, leaving only Amao and his sister behind. He was raised by his grandmother. The family depended on each other and lived a hard life. Because of this, Amao was very filial to his grandmother, "Okay, why do you ask this?"
"Didn't she tell you that she should be kind to others?"
"Go!" Amao waved his hand disdainfully, "I'm going home, Xiaohua is going home today."
"Buy a roast goose, she likes to eat."
"I know." Amao agreed and went far away.
Gu Zhong sat in the sparrow hall for a while and went downstairs with him - he was going to the hospital and asked the master for his opinion.
When Luli returned to his temporary residence in Hung Hom, it was almost dusk and the rooftop was messy. Xu Yunjian and others were cleaning up the house. "Hey, this is fresh. Do you know how to do housework?"
"I don't do it, it's all Erdanzi." Xu Yunjian sat on the chair, giggling and smoking, "They both thought the house was too messy and said they wanted to clean up. Alas, Erdanzi, those broken cardboard boxes don't need to be cleaned up. When it gets dark, they will just throw them up from the upper floor."
Er Li Yitong scolded! "Are you immoral? Go back and hit someone!"
Xu Yunjian laughed, "Isn't this a fun thing? You're taking it seriously? Hurry up, take you downstairs and tell you where the place to sell things is. You have to go there by yourself in the future. Xiaoxiao, wait for us for a while and come back soon. Let's have a drink with four of us tonight, and it's lively."
The three of them picked up the cardboard boxes full of garbage and went downstairs. After a while, they walked up again, carrying two portions of braised pork, two portions of pig intestine, two portions of char siu rice, and a whole roast goose. They set up a table on the rooftop. Then the three of them went down again, carrying beer and white wine, and there was no need to find any wine glasses. Just use a glass glass for the white wine. As for beer, just blow it.
Lu Li and Li Xueqing and Li Tiehan are classmates and friends for so many years, but they still rarely have the opportunity to sit down and drink. Occasionally, they go to their homes to visit their parents. Because of the lack of supplies, there is no room for the little brothers to drink. This time when they arrived in Hong Kong, the situation was different. Lu Li looked at the wine glass in front of Er Li, which was similar to his, "Erdanzi, how much can you drink?"
"Half a pound, you can drink at most one pound. You can't compare to the fourth brother, and you can't compare to you - by the way, I heard from Xu Yunjian that you can drink especially?"
"It's not a great thing. Today we are gathering in a foreign country, not just for the sake of drinking, just for the sake of happiness. Come and drink!"
In addition to Xu Yunjian, the three of them picked up the wine glasses and drank them all in one go, "Come on, eat the food."
"Xiaoxiao, what are you going to let us brothers do?"
"What should I do?" Lu Li frowned slightly and put down the chopsticks. "But before that, I have to tell you first. Don't let us brothers and brothers call us, huh? The four of us are old classmates and friends for many years, and now we are working together. What's wrong? I just arrived in Hong Kong and planned to split up with me? Isn't it?!" By the end, he was already harsh!
"Uh, Xiaoxiao, Erdanzi didn't mean that."
"I know he didn't mean that, otherwise I wouldn't bring him here. In the future, not only can I not say this in front of me, but also in front of others! I told you on the train that our old customers are in Hong Kong, the purpose of making money is to make money, but the first key to making money is that we should be united and benevolent! When outsiders hear your words like this, they will naturally form a malicious atmosphere: 'Oh, did you hear it? It turns out that the people Luli brought with them are different from him! How can such people accomplish great things?' If such a voice appears, you will get out immediately, do you understand?"
"I understand, understand!" Li Tiehan immediately stood up, "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, I said it wrong. Don't be angry."
"Sit down and continue drinking." Luli picked up the chopsticks again and said, "Danzi, I'm not here to show you a warning, but here is not our Tianjin (Tianjin). There are strangers everywhere and unkind eyes everywhere. What we can rely on is your companions. If even this disappears, just stop doing it, roll it up and roll it home."
"We understand, Xiaoxiao, what is this called? Prevent the problem from the slightest, right?"
Lu Li finally smiled, "Forget it, don't talk about so much, let's drink and eat vegetables? Xu Yunjian, if you don't drink, you eat vegetables very quickly?"
Xu Yun Jianli ignored it and waved his chopsticks while the three of them were talking, and ate happily! He leaned on the back of the chair and sighed with unfulfilled pleasure: "Hey, Xiaoxiao, tell you something serious?"
"What's up?"
"Last time, what if you think of a way to make some delicious food you brought back? Hey, Erdanzi, the fourth brother, you two haven't tasted it, **! So amazing, I almost ate my own tongue, I have never eaten such delicious food in my life - have you seen the light at the door? I swear to the light, there is no exaggeration, don't you believe me, please ask him?"
Luli nodded, "He really didn't lie about this, it was really very delicious."
"Then let's try it too?"
"Wait for the opportunity, this kind of thing is hard to come by. I still brought it from someone's house with a shame, just for this piece of material!"
Li Xueqing laughed, "Don't say that, Xiaoxiao is just the thing that convinced me. It seems that since I was a child, I just kept Xu Yunjian and Danzi. It also makes me interesting to say that Cao Xun fought with you so fiercely, but now? He has become your most loyal friend."
"The biggest characteristic of Cao Xun is that he has a pure heart. He has no bad intentions at all. As for business matters, it is the result of his own hard work. So this time I came out and handed over all the business to him. It is for this point." Lu Li said with a smile: "Among you three, no one can compare to Xu Yunjian in terms of talent...."
"Just him?"
"Yes, it's him. Xu Yunjian is definitely not slow. Unfortunately, he is born with a temper of living a life of waiting to die, so he has to take him with me. As for the future, I will talk about it later. In addition, I promised my aunt that at least three years, I will be at ease with the business in Hong Kong and go back to Tianjin to accompany her - you also know my habits. Since I have said it, I must do it. So, after three years, no matter what the situation here is, I will leave."
"Don't?" Li Xueqing said hurriedly: "If it's bad, it's okay if we leave. If it's done well, it's quite profitable. If you leave, what's the matter?"
"Aren't you there? I'll tell you, I'll take your brothers out this time just to let you follow me to experience it well, and then leave the business here to you when you can stand alone."
"Where is this possible?" Li Tiehan immediately expressed his objection, "We can't do anything, how can we be responsible? Besides, we are all northerners, and we just make some money and leave. Why do you want to do your business here?"
"Why not? Otherwise, why do you think I came to Hong Kong from afar?"
"It's just that, we don't care! Good guy, what should I do if something happens?"
Li Xueqing pulled him back to his seat with his hand, "Xiaoxiao, continue, continue."
"In addition to us, there are also locals in Hong Kong. After all, we are outsiders and often we need help from others - you must remember that those who want to do big things must learn and dare to use the talents in the world. To be honest, with our knowledge, it is too far apart. It is okay to do a small business and support your family. If you want to make a big deal and make more money, you have to rely on talents!"
