Dao Zai was actually a person who dared to fight and was definitely not a coward, but he was currently a rootless duckweed. If he could not establish himself under the new boss, then his future days would be very difficult. ()
The underworld was Jianghu. The people of Jianghu seemed to have a rich and colorful life, but in reality, how much bitterness was hidden was difficult for outsiders to know.
Where there were people, there would be grudges. The grudges of Jianghu were even more endless and the grudges were even more intense. Therefore, if a Jianghu person wanted to leave Jianghu, it would be very difficult unless they reached Huang Biao's level and did not fear the revenge of others.
Otherwise, even if it was Lin Hu, he would not dare to leave Jianghu. Leaving meant that he would lose his power and his enemies would come knocking on his door. Without the care of his fellow soldiers, it was possible that one day he would end up as a corpse on the streets.
Dao Zai understood this point, which was why his heart was like dead ashes.
Lin Hu looked at Tang Zheng but did not say anything. If Tang Zheng really punished Dao Zai, then he would have nothing to say. In his heart, Tang Zheng's position surpassed anyone else.
Everyone's eyes all focused on Tang Zheng's body as he was the focus of the crowd. The private room was completely silent as even She Mengqin stopped her clamoring, leaving only the sound of slightly hurried breathing.
Tang Zheng and Lin Hu looked at each other. He naturally understood Dao Zai's meaning to Lin Hu. Moreover, Dao Zai did not make too big of a mistake, so he bent down and supported Dao Zai's arm.
Dao Zai's entire body trembled, showing the great fear in his heart.
"Stand up. You are Huzi's brother, so of course you are my brother. Brothers of the same family, this is also called 'no discord, no concord'." Tang Zheng calmly said.
In Dao Zai's ears, this voice was like the sound of nature. No voice in the world was more pleasant than this voice. He was especially excited as he timidly looked at Tang Zheng. Discovering that the other was not lying, he hurriedly said: "Young Master Tang is magnanimous. In the future, Dao Zai will do anything for you without hesitation."
That sonorous and powerful tone was not the least bit fake.
Tang Zheng smiled and patted his shoulder, saying: "Properly follow Huzi and your days will only get better and better."
"Yes, Young Master Tang!" Dao 'zi nodded respectfully.
Lin Hu smiled. After such a ruckus, he unexpectedly did not make Dao Zi and the others bitterly disappointed. Instead, he was able to rope them in. He felt that Tang Zheng was simply his lucky star, so he laughed heartily and said, "Young Master Tang's breadth of mind is truly admirable. Everyone else, leave, don't disturb Young Master Tang's mood of eating."
The younger brothers filed out and closed the door. Lin Hu pulled Tang Zheng and said, "Are these Young Master Tang's friends? Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lin Hu. I'm a rough man and I'm trying to make a living in Ordinary Balance. "
Fang Chongguo quickly changed his expression and shook hands with Lin Hu, saying, "This humble one is Fang Chongguo."
"Director Fang, nice to meet you." Lin Hu said warmly.
She Mengqin wanted to say something but hesitated. Fang Chongguo's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick as he hurriedly stopped his wife, afraid that she would say something that would offend the other party.
Fang Chongguo had never heard of Lin Hu's name, but it was clear that the other party was not an ordinary person. It was best not to provoke him. What he was most puzzled about was the relationship between Tang Zheng and Lin Hu. It seemed that Lin Hu was very respectful towards him.
But this did not make sense. Could it be that Tang Zheng was the son of some big shot family and deliberately maintained a low profile? But what kind of big shot family would pick up trash and live in a broken house?
He had a stomach full of questions and was prepared to go home and properly ask his daughter about Tang Zheng's background.
Fang Shishi was very happy as Tang Zheng had resolved this crisis, making her feel that she had face in front of her parents. In the future, there would be less resistance, so she pulled Tang Zheng and happily ordered the dishes.
Fang Chongguo and She Mengqin became supporting characters and did not say a word. Lin Hu would occasionally whisper a few words to Tang Zheng before raising his head to look at the Fang couple. His expression clearly changed.
The two were shocked as they did not know what Tang Zheng said. They were deeply afraid that he would say bad things about them, but they did not dare to directly ask.
Don't look at how Lin Hu was respectful in front of Tang Zheng and did not put on any airs. That was because Tang Zheng was strong enough to make Lin Hu accept him wholeheartedly.
In front of others, Lin Hu's aura was not weak. After all, he had been in Jianghu for tens of years and his domineering aura could not be concealed.
Every time Lin Hu glanced at them, the two's hearts would suddenly jump.
However, Lin Hu's attitude towards Fang Shishi was clearly much better as he was not stingy with his praises, causing her to beam with joy.
In reality, Tang Zheng did not say bad things about the Fang couple and was only speaking the truth. Moreover, Lin Hu was not an idiot. He could see that the two were clearly dissatisfied with Tang Zheng and could not help but snort disdainfully. He had seen many of these so-called successful people who thought that they could fly to the sky with just a little bit of money. In his eyes, they were not worth mentioning.
As they spoke, a table full of dishes was served. Lin Hu poured a cup of wine and said: "Young Master Tang, let me toast you. I'll drink it, you can drink as much as you want."
The culture of the wine table was broad and profound. Just this simple sentence contained too many profound meanings. Fang Chongguo naturally understood the profound meaning behind it, and that was that Lin Hu had lowered his status to a very low level.
Tang Zheng also drank it in one gulp. Lin Hu gave him face so he naturally would return it.
"Director Fang, let's drink." Lin Hu also said. His attitude towards Fang Chongguo was clearly much more casual. She Mengqin was about to flare up but was stopped by her husband.
"Mr. Lin, let me toast you." Fang Chongguo smiled and drank first.
Lin Hu also raised his head and drank, saying: "Young Master Tang, I still have guests to take care of so I'll go first. You guys take your time eating."
Tang Zheng nodded his head.
Dong dong!
Just at this moment, a knock sounded out and the door was pushed open. A woman walked in. This woman was around thirty years old and had a strong aura. She was dressed in martial attire and exuded a heroic spirit. Although she could not be considered beautiful, she was very pleasing to the eye.
"Brother Hu, you ran over here and left me to drink alone. That's not good enough." She leisurely walked over and said in a coquettish yet angry tone.
Lin Hu stood up and laughed: "Fire Phoenix, look, aren't I just about to go over?"
Tang Zheng thoughtfully looked at the person who came in. So she was actually Fire Phoenix. It seems like Lin Hu has already begun to carry out his plan to rope her in.
Fire Phoenix's almond eyes swept over the several people. Her gaze paused on Fang Shishi's face as she said in her heart, "What a beautiful girl." However, she directly ignored Tang Zheng.
This was because Tang Zheng was indeed very ordinary. He did not have the tyrannical aura of a tiger and was just like an ordinary high school student. Moreover, there was a bit of shyness between his eyebrows, giving off the feeling of a neighbor's big boy.
"Brother Hu, why don't you introduce your friend to me? Are you afraid that I will steal your business?" Fire Phoenix said with a smile.
"Fire Phoenix, my small business is not worthy of your attention." Lin Hu paused for a moment and solemnly introduced: "This is Young Master Tang."
Fire Phoenix's gaze finally fell on Tang Zheng's body. Her eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment, but she immediately smiled like a flower and said: "Young Master Tang, nice to meet you."
From Lin Hu's tone, she could hear the respect he had for Tang Zheng. Moreover, he was the first to introduce Tang Zheng. This meant that the other party's identity was not ordinary.
To be worthy of the title of Young Master Tang, he was definitely not an ordinary person. Her mind quickly flashed past Ordinary Balance and other large families. However, none of them had the surname Tang. This made her unable to see through Tang Zheng's background.
"Fire Phoenix, your reputation is not as good as meeting you in person. Nice to meet you." Tang Zheng nodded.
Fire Phoenix smiled: "Oh, Young Master Tang, you have actually heard of my name. It is my honor." Her gaze turned and looked at the other people, "What about these people?"
Lin Hu had not yet introduced when Fang Chongguo took the initiative to stand up and excitedly said: "Chief Fire, I am Ding Tai Real Estate's Fang Chongguo. I am currently discussing with your company about cooperation."
Fang Chongguo was really excited. He had never met Fire Phoenix before, but her name was like thunder to his ears. This was because her name in the real estate industry was too resounding.
She had a construction company under her. The company was not large, but its strength was strong. Especially in the area of demolition. Many of the difficult areas in Ordinary Balance were taken care of by her.
Nowadays, there were two most difficult areas in the real estate industry. One of them was the land, and the other was the demolition. Many places in the country were boiling with resentment because of the demolition. Group incidents occurred frequently and many officials were implicated because of this.
And Fire Phoenix's demolition company was one of the oddities in Ordinary Balance. They could quickly take care of those nail-biters. Moreover, they would not let them complain or ask for help.
Many of the Ordinary Balance's real estate companies would ask her for help. Thus, her position was very special.
Fang Chongguo was jealous of the real estate boom. He had also set up a real estate company and painstakingly took over the land. But now, he was stuck in the demolition process, causing his work to stop.
Seeing the money flowing out, his heart ached. He was so anxious that he was on fire. He tried to find Fire Phoenix through his connections, but to no avail. This was because Fire Phoenix was very busy. Or it could be said that she had a lot of big clients. Thus, she did not want to see a small client like him.
He never thought that he would actually meet Fire Phoenix. And this was all thanks to Tang Zheng. This made him have mixed feelings, but he was more happy because his problem could be solved.
Fire Phoenix nodded and said: "Oh, so it's Chief Fang. Nice to meet you. If you had said earlier that you were Brother Hu's friend, then we would have cooperated a long time ago."
Fire Phoenix's heart moved as she judged the other party's intention to find her. Naturally, since he was Lin Hu's friend, her attitude was a lot better.
Fang Chongguo looked at Lin Hu with a complicated expression. He really could not guess what kind of person he was to have such a good relationship with Fire Phoenix.
Fang Chongguo personally poured a cup of wine and said: "Chief Fire, I am fortunate to meet you today. Let me give you a toast. As for the matter of cooperation, I will go to your company tomorrow to discuss it with you."
He held the wine cup and wanted to pass it to Fire Phoenix. Fire Phoenix did not accept it but looked at Lin Hu thoughtfully. From Lin Hu's attitude, she could see a lot of peculiarities.
Lin Hu's attitude towards Fang Chongguo was cold, but he attached great importance to this young master Tang. Fire Phoenix was a smart person, so how could she not understand the importance of this table. Thus, she smiled at Tang Zheng and said: "Young master Tang, I wonder if I have the honor to drink with you?"
What was called disparity? This was called disparity. Fang Chongguo took the initiative to propose a toast but Fire Phoenix ignored him. However, she took the initiative to drink with Tang Zheng and even said that it was her honor.
The difference was like heaven and earth!
