Volume 1: Dragon in the River and Lake Chapter 53: Constipated Wang Li
A week's time, neither long nor short.
Ye Shaofeng got out of bed at 9 o'clock, it was a rare sunny day today, the sunlight shone through the bright window and spilled onto the bed.
Ye Shaofeng lazily stretched his waist. He got up, leaned against the back of the bed, took out a cigarette from the Yu Xi cigarette case on the bedside table, and lit it with a lighter, puffing away.
It's already been an hour late, but I don't care at all. Even if I don't go to work, I can still get a high salary of 30,000 yuan per month. Who made me be favored by Chang Miao and become the private bodyguard of this thousand-gold young lady?
This bodyguard job is indeed easy-going, it's been over a week now. The young lady hasn't made a single phone call to herself, and nothing has happened at all.
The days passed by quietly and uneventfully, and the comfortable life almost made Ye Shaofeng forget that he still had a mission to complete.
Moreover, Bai Lengyu of Eagle Hall has long been eyeing this matter covetously.
Just thinking about it, Ye Shaofeng's emotions became tense.
These guys from Eagle Hall are all ruthless killers who don't bat an eye, they're not special forces but more like a bunch of thugs.
Killing is just a nod of the head for them. They themselves are not afraid to die, and even more so, they are not afraid to let others die. Their idea is that the more bad people die, the more peaceful this world will be.
But now in such a distorted society, who is the bad guy and who is the good guy? What distinguishes good from evil?
The billiard hall has been operating for a week, and the business is not as hot as expected. However, it's not losing money, but also can't make a lot of money. It's calm and peaceful, and there are no extortionate protection fees from the Green Dragon Gang.
Now, Peng Xiaofei and Wang Zheng have resigned from the security team of Zonghai Group. They worked hard to earn only 1,800 yuan, which is not as good as dedicating themselves to the billiard hall, where they can earn more or less for themselves. Moreover, they don't have to work as hard as when they were security guards.
After getting up, I had breakfast. Ye Shaofeng took the bus and went straight to the billiard hall at No. 8 Middle School.
Now, the billiard hall has a loud name called "Blue Flame", which is similar to the name of a bar, but it's just a small billiard hall with only ten billiard tables.
As they walked into the blue flame gate, three waiters and Ye Shaofeng greeted them, all calling out: "Brother Feng." This call was absolutely unwilling, not because of him as a person, but because of the 800 yuan salary he paid every month.
The billiard room was still empty, with a few truant kids scattered around, hitting the balls occasionally and cursing from time to time, looking quite happy.
Now there is a billiard hall, Peng Xiaofei lives here every day, and this has become his new home.
Wang Zheng's family has an old mother, and in general, he needs to go back home.
Unless I drink too much and can't go back, I'll sleep here with Peng Xiaofei.
The second floor has a large hall and three small single rooms, Peng Xiaofei lives in one of the sunny rooms. The heating is on, it's warm and cozy, much more comfortable than when he was in the security team.
The two of them had not gotten up yet and were still lazy in bed.
On the large dining table in the second-floor hall, several empty beer bottles were slanted and lying on it. The peanuts on the table only had peanut skins left. There were also a few cold dishes, all emitting a sour and rotten smell.
Looks like you two got drunk again last night.
Ye Shaofeng can drink alcohol, but he doesn't really like to. Every time Peng Xiaofei and Wang Zheng invite him to go drinking together, he declines.
He didn't go, so the two brothers could only drink by themselves. As they drank, they talked about their respective family troubles, and the more they talked, the more unbearable it became, the more unbearable it was, the more they drank, and the more confused they got.
Under Peng Xiaofei's big bed, five wide-backed steel machetes were hidden, all of which had been sharpened and could kill a person with one blow. These were the weapons they had prepared, and if anyone caused trouble, these machetes would come in handy.
"Wake up! The waiters downstairs have all arrived, and you two are still not getting up. If we continue to operate like this, the store will collapse sooner or later!" Ye Shaofeng kicked open Peng Xiaofei's bedroom door and shouted.
The two of them opened their eyes in a daze, probably having drunk too much yesterday. They didn't even take off their clothes when they slept, and were still wearing their shoes.
Peng Xiaofei had the worst alcohol tolerance. He slept on the cement floor of that side and there was vomit, just looking at it made one feel nauseous.
"Damn it, you two are really awesome! Hurry up and get up, clean up the house, it's time to start work! Since we opened for business, our business has been bad."
I've decided that we'll lower our prices, charging 10 yuan per hour, so those kids who skip class can afford to come and spend money here. And as for the drinks, snacks, and cigarettes we sell at the counter, let's not raise their prices, just sell them at normal prices, with thin profits but high sales volume. Let's first build up our reputation.
"Right. In two days, we'll be hosting a billiards tournament, and the champion will receive a prize of 1,000 yuan, which will definitely attract many people to come and play. This way, our reputation will suddenly rise. You two brothers just prepare for this today." Ye Shaofeng instructed.
Yeshao Feng's words, both of them listened, not only because he spent more money than they did, but also because they trusted Yeshao Feng's ability. They were convinced from the bottom of their hearts that as long as they followed Yeshao Feng, they would surely rise to prominence in the future.
Ye Shaofeng was speaking when he heard a noisy commotion coming from downstairs.
A blond young man stood in front of the billiard table, holding a cue stick and swung it, knocking a waiter to the ground.
The yellow-haired kid was followed by several students wearing the No. 8 Middle School uniform, each with a cigarette in their mouth, their clothes disheveled, looking like typical hoodlums.
"Scolding the neighbor, I've been playing in these few places for a long time, and no one dares to ask me for money. You're good, we brothers haven't finished playing yet, you let us pay first, are you intentionally making yourself uncomfortable?"
At this time, the little girl at the cash register hurried over and said: "Wang Li Ge, we have a new boss here. The boss has rules that our store does not allow credit, and for timely payment, you must pay first."
"Grass, the new boss is here! Get your old boss out, I'm gonna get to know him, what kind of thing is this boss!" Wang Li yelled, carrying a cue stick.
"Bring your boss here, I'll beat him to death!" A group of hoodlum students also joined in the exchange. With five or six of these hoodlums shouting below, the momentum was quite big.
At this time, a sturdy man came down from the stairs, saying as he walked: "I am the boss here, whoever has something to say, come and talk to me!"
When Ye Shaofeng walked down completely, several little rascals were stunned, especially Wang Li, who was frightened as soon as he saw Ye Shaofeng.
This Wang Li is that yellow-haired kid who bullied Yao Xueqi in class the other day and got beaten up by Ye Shaofeng.
This kid, although he just entered high school, relies on his father's power and influence to be a tyrant in school. He has a group of younger followers who flatter and fawn over him, and even the small shops at the school entrance don't dare to provoke him...
