320. Chapter 316: Discovering the Bar and Promotion to Captain

After hanging up the phone, Beinuo came out of the public telephone booth with a cigarette in his mouth. He looked at the surrounding streets and confirmed that no one was following him before going to a nearby restaurant to buy breakfast.

Perhaps for those rich people who don't need any physical labor and whose only place to sweat is in the gym besides in bed, they would eat a little lighter for breakfast.

But for most manual laborers and young people, it's better to have some meat for breakfast.

Capitalists also encourage eating meat. They have come up with many ways to get people to buy meat to eat, instead of eating vegetables that can't make them any money.

When Beinuo returned to the apartment with a bag of food, everyone was almost awake.

"Why are you so nice today?" Allen sat on the bed smoking. To be honest, the room was a bit messy. Men around twenty years old, although they had walked out of the stage of being hated by people and dogs, hadn't walked very far.

Beinuo walked to the table in the room. He threw some bottles and such into the trash pile and arranged the food.

The food bag made of kraft paper had been soaked through with grease. At this time, there was no such thing as "film coating technology." When it was easily torn open, that thick meaty fragrance suddenly emerged and drilled into the noses of the young big boys.

Several people in the dormitory couldn't sit still and got off the bed one after another.

No brushing teeth, no washing face. Life is not as exquisite as literary creation, where even if you die, you can't let even a single hair appear in a place where it shouldn't appear.

Real life has many small problems. People will understand and get used to these.

They sat at the table, pinched those pieces of meat into their mouths with their hands, and then took a bite of the sandwich. It was simply extremely comfortable!

In the eyes of some people, such food lacking nutritional balance couldn't play a positive role in their growth, but at least, it satisfied their appetite!

"These are to celebrate your upcoming promotion to captain. After you are promoted to captain, don't forget us brothers who once lived in the same dormitory!"

Beinuo said it very emotionally. Allen was also a very emotional person. He chewed the food in his mouth in large mouthfuls, swallowed some, and left a little space.

He stood up and opened his arms, "Come here, I'll give you a hug!"

The two hugged, and Allen patted his body, "Don't worry, when I become captain, we will still be together."

Captains would have their own independent apartments, sixty-something square meters, which was also one of the motivations they were willing to pay.

Although the property rights of the apartment wouldn't be given to them, they could live there themselves or bring their families to live together.

If they were promoted to senior cadres, then Lanse would arrange detached houses for them.

These things were still full of temptation for the low-level gang members whose income was actually not too high yet!

Like Beinuo, forty or fifty dollars a month was the foundation. If this mission was completed relatively well, he could also get a reward of twenty or thirty dollars.

In the entire Lanse family system, the income of "encountering trouble and then solving trouble" was always higher than doing nothing, which was also one of the reasons that drove them not to be afraid of trouble.

If you want to get more, you have to pay something!

Allen gave each roommate a hug. He swallowed the food in his mouth, "Although we are not the first to follow Lanse, I believe we will also be the most successful group of people!"

Until now, Erwen and these people were still inspiring them. Lanse didn't mind people knowing how much money they had now, and it was also like this that they were more willing to contribute to the family.

Brainwashing, using emotions, and using other non-material things are indeed useful, but this usefulness always has a limit.

Only the desire for wealth and status is limitless!

The group went to the office after eating breakfast. Allen told Lanse the news he had inquired about, and at the same time took out four hundred and ninety dollars, placing it on the table, "We only spent ten dollars."

Lanse took away four hundred dollars and threw the remaining ninety back, "Take it and split it." He paused, "Don't run around these two days. I'll discuss with Laini how to handle this matter."

Allen left with ninety dollars, while Lanse picked up the phone and talked about this matter.

"... I sent someone to check, and this garment factory is called Henry Garment Factory."

A garment factory so ordinary that a dozen similar names could be found in the federation. Federal people lacked some ability and judgment in naming, especially low- and middle-level enterprises.

Initially, they often used their own names or surnames as part of the name, which was concise and convenient.

Only when they could really build up the enterprise would they consider the issue of changing the name.

"I know this person." Laini confirmed this "competitor," "What do you plan to do?"

Lanse didn't tell him what he planned to do, but instead asked him, "It's not what I plan to do, it's what you plan to do, Laini."

"If you hope I will handle this matter, I guarantee he will go bankrupt in a few days."

"If you hope to handle this matter yourself, then I will help you solve some other things you are powerless to do, but your opponent, you defeat him!"

"What I can guarantee is that he won't have the opportunity to use means other than legal competition to crush you!"

It was simple for Lanse to solve this matter himself: find two young people, take a pistol over, or burn his warehouse.

If he had a loan, use Jonathon's influence to force him to repay the debt. There was always a way to make him bankrupt and have nothing in a very short time.

But he felt he couldn't do that, because poaching people was just one means of fair competition; it wasn't illegal or against the rules.

If he had to use illegal means every time he encountered a problem, Lanse would have to consider choosing another manager.

He didn't distrust Laini, but his ability wasn't enough to support this factory.

Laini thought for a while, and it didn't take long, "I'll handle him!"

His voice was firm, and his voice was also filled with some power. This was a test, and he was very clear about this point!

"Very good, I will send someone to help you watch, not giving them other means of destruction."

"Laini, he can poach your people, why don't you go poach his people?"

"Or poach people from other places."

"I will give you Debbie's phone number, and you can also ask her for help."

"You made a correct choice, Laini. The most precious wealth of a person is never crying to parents, but crossing over!"

"I will support you!"

"In addition, I will arrange for a few people to go to your side. You don't need to worry about them. They will protect the machinery in the factory, the materials in the warehouse, and the safety of the workers."

"The rest is up to you."

"Laini, I have no requirements for the factory's profitability. Do you understand what I mean?"

Laini took more than ten seconds before tentatively asking, "You mean, can I... overspend?"

He really didn't know how to express what he thought in his heart, so he used a very special word. Lanse nodded, "But don't make it go bankrupt."

"I know what to do, Mr. Lanse."

Lanse was also satisfied with his reaction and decision. People always have some potential, more or less. If you don't force them, no one knows how far they can go.

He found Allen again. Allen appeared a bit excited. Fighting and killing were particularly tempting to young people, not only could they get money, but they could also quickly accumulate their fame and prestige.

"It might disappoint you, this time it's not to let you do some bad things, but to let you protect that factory, for a month."

"Don't let others cause destruction. After a month, you will be a captain!"

"But it might also be slightly delayed. After all, what Laini has to deal with is a person, not a piece of wood."

Allen naturally wouldn't refuse. These were all obstacles on his path to becoming a captain, "No problem, Boss, I guarantee no one can hurt the things in the factory and warehouse."

"Go, find Meiluo to collect some expenses, three hundred dollars, enough for you to live a good life this month."

Three hundred dollars sounded like it wasn't much, but split up, there was a quota of ten dollars every day. One dollar to buy cigarettes, and then three dollars for every meal. How damn luxurious would that be?

Of course, this account couldn't be calculated entirely like this, but it could indeed let them live very comfortably.

After Allen went back, he told the other three people about this matter. The other little partner didn't care; anyway, he was usually at the office side.

If there was something, he would follow those captains and cadres out to work.

If there was nothing, he would either be arranged to stand on the street, or chat and brag in the office's lounge, or find a place to sleep.

Where is rest not rest?

Only Beinuo was a little unhappy.

He came here to find a way to get key intelligence so that he could be promoted to an agent of the Hazardous Materials Management Bureau, not to do dirty work for Lanse!

Although he also felt very happy during the time he spent with everyone, he still longed for a stable, bright life.

Not like this now.

A month didn't seem very long, but what about after a month?

What else would they have to do?

This wasn't the life he wanted!

"When are we going?" he asked.

Allen thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow."

"Then I'll go buy some daily necessities?"

"Sure, bring some for us too." Allen gave him twenty dollars. This money was more than enough to buy daily necessities.

Beinuo left soon with the money. This way, he had an excuse.

Things in the Port District were very cheap because the docks were piled with mountains of goods.

Trade is a very interesting thing. Sometimes throwing away some goods can lose less money than transporting them away!

So you can always see many cheap goods at the dock. Some belong to the dock management company. They will open the containers that have been abandoned by others and take out the goods inside to sell to make up for part of the loss.

There are also some merchants who will buy the entire container directly and then sell it outside.

Many people are looking for the direction of life at the dock. There are not only work clothes and dock workers here, but also these small merchants.

Beinuo only spent a while buying everything he wanted, and the price was even cheaper than in the supermarket.

After he found a place to put the things away, according to the address Lukaer gave him, he came to that bar in the evening.

The bar was left behind by the Red Dog Gang. Because it was decorated well, plus the Hazardous Materials Management Bureau turned a blind eye to their business situation.

As long as it wasn't neon lights telling people that they could drink here, they basically didn't care about their business.

However, even so, they were still very careful.

After observing for a while, he confirmed the entrance of the bar and came to the front of the bar door, patting the thick wooden door hard.

In order to be more "reasonable," he also changed into a set of shabby clothes, making himself look more like an ordinary person at the dock.

The observation port was opened with a clatter, and a pair of eyes were revealed inside, looking him up and down, "Get out, we don't entertain poor ghosts here!"

Saying that, the gatekeeper closed the observation port. Beinuo was stunned for a while, and then he laughed angrily and patted the door a few more times.

"If you don't get out, I'll go out from here!" The gatekeeper looked at Beinuo through the observation port. Dressed so shabbily, he couldn't afford to drink at all.

Although the wine at the dock wasn't the most expensive in this city, it was still a bit more expensive than in the Imperial District.

Beinuo took out two one-dollar bills from his pocket, "Who are you calling a poor ghost?"

The person inside stared at him for a while longer before closing the observation port, and at the same time, the sound of the bolt being opened came, "You can go in, but don't cause trouble here!"

Beinuo nodded and walked into the bar swaggeringly.

It was very lively here. Although it was only afternoon, there were quite a few people. He walked to the bar, ordered a glass of wine, and sat down to drink.

He could feel several gazes staring at him vaguely. He carried his wine glass to the dancer's bar and soon merged with the people around him.

He threw money on the stage, said obscene dirty words, laughed loudly, or spat, just like other people here who had no quality!

Those gazes examining him soon moved away from him. He drank two glasses of wine and even met many friends before leaving reluctantly after dark.

After he came out of the bar, he let out a heavy sigh.

He took the daily necessities he bought and went to find Allen.

"You drank?" Allen gave him a punch on the shoulder, "Actually didn't call us together."

Beinuo's expression became slightly serious, "I have something I don't know how to tell you."

Allen hadn't realized that what he was about to say wasn't simple, and asked with a grin, "What is it?"

"You have a girlfriend, or did you drink too much and sleep in the bathroom?"

Through some subtle changes, Beinuo made himself look both nervous and a little excited, "I... don't know how to say it, I might have found a Wolf Gang bar."

"You asked me where I drank, I was in their bar."

Allen was a little silly after hearing the whole thing, "Brother, what the hell have you experienced?"

Lanse was also very curious about this question. Allen took him and soon found Lanse. Erwen was also there; he had been busy all day before coming back.

The two were discussing some other things, and Allen brought Beinuo over.

Beinuo narrated what he said to Allen again. Lanse was just thinking, while Erwen asked, "What did you go to the Port District for?"

Beinuo already had a plan, "I went to buy some daily necessities. Allen told me we were going to stay in the industrial district for a while."

"Daily necessities in the Port District are very cheap. I have always been buying things there."

"When I came back, I noticed two drunks walking out of the alley. They looked like they had drunk a lot, which made me feel something was wrong."

"So I observed for a while and found the entrance to a bar. That shouldn't be our bar. I mixed in. Their gatekeeper was very casual. I showed him I had money, and he let me in."

"Then I drank two glasses of wine, stayed for a while, and left."

He finished all his words in one breath, not giving Lanse or Erwen a chance to interrupt his train of thought. After Lanse finished listening, he looked at Erwen and recorded this address.

Allen appeared a little excited. If this was a Wolf Gang bar, then there was no doubt that Lanse and the others would definitely take action, but then he felt a little depressed.

If there was really any action, he estimated he wouldn't be able to catch up!

After about a few minutes, Lanse nodded and said, "This discovery is very important, Beinuo. You did a good job."

"We will first figure out the situation of this bar. If it is the Wolf Gang's, we will take action against them."

"They have already provoked us, and we will not fail to fight back."

He paused, "Go to Meiluo's side and collect five hundred dollars. This is what you deserve."

Beinuo glanced at Allen and suddenly said, "Boss, I don't want this money. Can I change it for a reward?"

Erwen raised his head and looked at him, "What do you want?"

Most low-level gang members want money. After all, the reason they joined the gang certainly wasn't to follow Lanse to shine and heat; the purpose was to make their lives better and make their family situations better.

Beinuo glanced at Allen again, "I know Allen actually really wants to participate in this operation. Can I not take the money and let him participate instead?"

Allen looked at Beinuo in disbelief, and Beinuo just smiled back.

Lanse and Erwen looked at each other. In fact, they also liked this situation very much. This kind of emotional bond is definitely much stronger than the bond of money!

"You have a good brother, Allen!" Lanse agreed to his request, "You still take the money. I'll change someone else to go to Laini's side. After Mo Lisi figures out the situation of this bar, we will take action."

"You participate too!"

Allen waved his fist, his face full of irrepressible smiles. Lanse leaned on the back of the chair.

His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, "Beinuo is your brother, and his credit has a share of yours."

Lanse glanced at Erwen. Erwen opened the cigarette case, took out a cigar, and threw it over, "You are a captain!" ===== CHAPTER 320 =====
