Chapter 85

Li Xin is very busy!

For several days, he either caught up with this dragon head, or had tea with that seat master; when he had nothing to do, he even went drinking with famous tough guys in the jianghu.

This let him meet many jianghu big brothers he hadn't known before.

His network expanded rapidly.

When it was time to part, everyone would receive his gift, a big brother wireless telephone.

The flattery from his mouth kept pouring out: 'You, such a jianghu big brother, how could you not have a big brother? This is standard equipment for a jianghu big brother; without a big brother in hand, saying you're a big brother, nobody would believe it!'

Yeah, that's right, it's counted per unit!

There was a jianghu big brother drinking outside when an enemy showed up; he casually grabbed the big brother on the table and smashed it.

Afterward, this big brother told everyone that apart from needing two hours of charge to be usable for five minutes, the big brother had no other problems.

Especially using it to smash people, it feels great in hand and is very usable.

Just like that, the big brother became a hit in Gangdao in a strange way.

Those who considered themselves big brothers would scramble to come up with money to buy a big brother; otherwise, they couldn't show their big brother identity.

Some went even further: six people chipped in to buy one, each using it one day a week, with one day left to rent out to others, even recouping some cost!

When those newly initiated gangsters went out to see the world, they saw that those big brothers always had a big brother at hand.

Going home, they would wonder: does having a big brother make you a big brother?

The more they thought, the more it made sense; they scrambled for money by any means—digging, stealing—just to buy a big brother, because it's a symbol of status!

Wong Kuk Red Rose Tea Restaurant.

Two groups were negotiating; without money, you couldn't go to a place with backbone; those who could come to the tea restaurant all had face, while the penniless negotiated at street stalls!

Yeah, it's also possible to squat on the curb like Wei Jixiang and negotiate with others!

Jixiang Ge is unlucky!

Really no money!

In the tea restaurant, the two groups flung spit while arguing, neither yielding; one called the other a loser, the other called him a bastard, it was very lively.

'Loser, the guest fruit stall is under my protection! Your people going to collect debts already breaks jianghu rules, and now you dare act so arrogantly?'

'Do you want to start a war?'

'Harmony United Victory's base in Wong Kuk,' said Gaoli Gui.

Victory Union Old Four Nine Fat Beef didn't indulge him either, opening his mouth to curse: 'Are you fucking braindead? That fruit stall is at the junction of the two territories! You say it's under your protection, so it's under your protection!'

'I also said, Hongxin Real Estate Agency is under my protection!'

'But I need to have that ability!'

'I formally notify you now: that fruit stall belongs to our Victory Union's protection; if you're not convinced, then bring people to fight, stop fucking using your mouth to intimidate people all day; our Victory Union is scary!'

Fat Beef spoke very arrogantly, an Old Four Nine scolded the nose of Harmony United Victory's base, gave no face, and didn't mention any brotherly affection.

But he had the capital for his arrogance, controlling half a street in Wong Kuk, with his men including the Blue Lanterns numbering two or three hundred, far surpassing Gaoli Gui of Harmony United Victory.

Gaoli Gui was so angry he panted heavily.

To avoid losing face in front of his underlings, he slapped the big brother in his hand onto the table.

He shouted: 'Damn it, even a Victory Union Old Four Nine without a position dares to fucking talk to me like this; then let's bring people to fight and see who dies, you stinky loser!'

Yeah, Fat Beef also wanted to grab something to slap the table, but looking left and right, nothing was handy, and he instantly felt he'd lost face.

He turned to his underlings and cursed: 'Are you dead? Go find me a brick; if I don't slap this, wouldn't I be losing face?'

The underlings looked at each other, some at a loss; even if we sold ourselves, we couldn't buy that brick on the table!

A yellow-haired kid said aggrievedly: 'Big brother, that brick is too expensive, we can't find it! Even if we pawned our pants, it wouldn't work!'

Yeah, during this time Fat Beef had some trouble and fled to the Yuen Long countryside to avoid disaster; he didn't even know what that black brick on the table was!

He had just come back today, went out to negotiate with others, and still didn't know what this thing was!

Because of this thing, it let his brother Fat Beef lose face; how could that be acceptable?

He blurted out a harsh line: 'Loser Gaoli Gui, you wait; I'm going to get that brick right now; from now on we'll see, let's see if your Harmony United Victory base can keep that fruit stall.'

After Fat Beef left, Gaoli Gui picked up the big brother and looked at it.

He silently thought: 'Damn, it can not only make calls, but also play a role in negotiations!'

This thing cost him over fifty thousand; at first he felt bad about it, but now he doesn't feel any regret.

Totally worth it!

This matter immediately spread through the jianghu, making the big brother even more popular.

It had reached the point where supply couldn't meet demand.

Any big brother going out without a big brother in hand would feel embarrassed to greet people.

So tacky!

Not worthy of holding a brick… wrong, it's the big brother people who speak.

Li Xin understood these people too well, so he let his flowery tongue stir up trouble in the jianghu.

This trick worked fast; you could say it took effect immediately, and as soon as the big brothers arrived, there were none left.

It sold very well!

Hui Gou was busy as hell this period, busy opening stores selling big brothers; sales were so good he opened over ten shops.

He didn't spend much money, just set up a counter in the Hongxin Real Estate Agency shopfront, arranged a few people, and hung a sign outside—done.

The sign read a few big characters: 【Big Brother Specialty Store】.

Hui Gou stood with hands on his hips, looking at that sign, full of spirit; who could have thought Hui Gou would have today!

From now on, Xin Ge will be my foster father!

My biological father still needs me to buy him a house, eh! This godfather is giving me a business, letting me earn money to buy a house.

This gap is too great; from now on, I'll listen to my birth father if I can, otherwise I'll walk away.

But when Godfather Xin speaks, I have to kneel to listen, and kneel upright; otherwise, what am I to do if the godfather is displeased?

This is his God of Wealth.

From now on, nobody dares to speak loudly to the godfather; it's not allowed.

Damn, this is my benefactor; others must be respectful, there's no reasoning with it—no matter who, they can't speak loudly to my godfather!

I, Grey Dog, do not allow it.

Especially seeing the people queuing to pick up goods, they've blocked the real estate agency storefront; this mindset has only strengthened even more!

By a fluke, unexpectedly, this actually boosted the brokerage company's business.

Made Jimi laugh until he couldn't close his mouth; he called Li Xin to share the good news, saying, "Boss truly is a genius at business—this marketing trick really works."

Li Xin hung up the phone, feeling a bit dazed!

Has he become a business genius?

Is there...?

It wasn't Grey Dog who said, "Funds are tight right now—can we use his shop for a bit?"

Li Xin didn't think much of it and agreed straight away; unexpectedly, this fluke made him a genius again!

Who can I reason with about this?
