At the beginning, I want to quit the arena

Chapter 28

"Jellyfish in scallion oil, bad bowl, Qingjiang white in cold sauce, raw drunken river prawns." Sheng Jiale watched the four cold dishes brought out from the back kitchen and put them on the table, Sheng Jiale said the names of these dishes.

Hearing Sheng Jiale's voice, Feili became more and more delighted. He wiped his hands on the apron and gestured to Sheng Jiale to wait a moment, and soon there was the sound of stir frying in the back kitchen.

About ten minutes later, four dishes and one soup were brought out by Filet, sweet and sour short ribs, crystal shrimp, deep-fried shrimp, grass head circle, and the last soup was pickled fresh.

Taking off the chef's hat on his head and taking off his apron, Philip took out another jar of Shaoxing Yuanhong warmed in hot water and two celadon wine cups from behind, and finally put a coin in the record player in the corner After waiting for Gu Mei's "By the Thoreau River" to be heard in a low voice, he sat across from Sheng Jiale with satisfaction.

"Seeing that the whole table is full of Shanghainese dishes, I seem to understand why Uncle Feili's restaurant business is so bad?" Sheng Jiale took the altar of Shaoxing Yuanhong and poured it into two wine cups. The wine is paired with a celadon wine cup, which looks more and more translucent under the light, and the warm rice wine exudes an attractive and rich aroma, which makes people can't help but move their nostrils lightly.

"I seldom cook Shanghai cuisine. Usually when other people come over, I just use char siew and scrambled eggs to perfuse it." Feili paused his chopsticks lightly, and said to Sheng Jiale: "Try it."

Sheng Jiale put a piece of jellyfish into his mouth with chopsticks, and then gave Philip a thumbs up: "It's delicious."

"Your expression tells me that you have no sincerity at all." Seeing Sheng Jiale's perfunctory praise, Feili laughed, and then picked up a slice with chopsticks and tasted it: "It actually tastes good, but you want it Eat it a few times to get used to its different taste from Cantonese cuisine."

Sheng Jiale looked at Fei Li: "Uncle Biao, Uncle Fei Li, you want to see me by name."

"Curiosity." Fei Li swallowed the food in his mouth, took another sip of rice wine, and said to Sheng Jiale, "Ma Biao told me that you asked him to frame Gao Lao and the three of them together with the cart cow. Use the three of them as dead ghosts to eliminate the police force who are now paying attention to Xihuan. When he told me, I thought he was taking too much drugs and couldn't turn his brain. I'm going to wash my hands and quit the arena, so I'm curious."

Sheng Jiale took out a cigarette and lit it: "I feel ashamed of Grandfather, I want to hand over the business to the club, leave Xiangjiang by myself, and go back to the mainland to try my luck."

"Two years ago, Mr. Gao came to see me and told me that his brother, Nazha, was arrested by the police for playing Laoqiang in Yau Tsim Mong and would be locked up in Stanley for five years." Philip looked at Sheng Jiale: "I was I was very curious, so I called and asked. The woman left Xiangjiang after testifying and went to Thailand. Gao Lao didn’t care about taking the slag and squatting in the ancestral hall, because before taking the scum, you need to pump water from your hands. If the scum goes in, the money can be put into his pocket in a fair manner. After all, he is your grandfather, and the boss is not here. It is only natural to give the amount to the grandfather. Gao Lao's brain will not come up with such an idea. At that time, I will Guess it's you."

"What does Uncle Feili mean, that he wants to frame me tonight?" Sheng Jiale looked at Feili indifferently, and said.

Fei Li shook his head: "The reason why you settled Nazha before was because you wanted to stand out. Nazha wanted you to hand over the business and go to Yau Tsim Mong to take over by yourself. You are not reconciled to the contacts and reputation you have accumulated in Yau Tsim Mong, so set The bureau united with Mr. Gao to send him in, the whole thing is just and right, people don't want to punish heaven and earth for themselves."

Sheng Jiale stopped talking, just looked at Fei Li, who ate a few dishes in a gentle manner, with an attitude like chatting:

"I said these eight words, it seems a bit unexpected?"

"It's really unexpected." Sheng Jiale said in an interface.

Feili held up the wine cup and signaled Sheng Jiale to touch him lightly: "Herongtang is not a Xiangjiang society, but a member of the Shanghai Youth Gang. I am almost the last surviving member of Herongtang who came to Xiangjiang from Shanghai. The Qing Gang didn't care much about this kind of thing. At that time in Shanghai, don't say that they were both children of the Qing Gang. Even if they were brothers who worshiped the same old man, it often happened that they fought each other because of their interests. It was more cruel than the local Xiangjiang society. To put it more bluntly, you want to wash your hands in a golden basin, not because you have any guilt in your heart, but because you have a better connection and want to get rid of the club."

"Even if I have no shame in my heart, according to the rules, I can wash my hands in a golden basin. I joined the club at the age of 13, and I am 23 years old this year. It has been ten years. The forty-nine sons of the Xiangjiang Club have not been able to hold a job for nine consecutive years. It can be said that because I am not famous enough, I am tired of the world. , choose the golden basin to wash his hands, and then the club will wash his name and remove him." Sheng Jiale said with a sip of rice wine, somewhat dispirited.

"If you have a good way to make money, the association will not stop you, but you can't get rid of the association. Otherwise, when outsiders see the benefits of Herongtang's youngsters one by one, they will forget the teacher's school, and they will not even be able to retain talents. Isn't it true? Being laughed at? You can go to the mainland to do business, or you can hide your club identity.” Fei Li put down his chopsticks: “I know you are a smart person, and I also like to talk to smart young people. My position is He Rongtang The old man, do you know what is called an old man? It is similar to Shi Ye, a number, and a promoter. The official name is the secretary-general of the council of a certain community. , Yishe, and Zhenshe were established one by one, and they all appointed their masters as secretary-generals. These masters also began to call themselves old people, and the word "old man" became a name in Shanghai later. Old man, you know that the other party is the secretary-general of a youth gang."

"Let's get to the point, Uncle Fei Li." Sheng Jiale looked at Fei Li and interrupted Fei Li's words.

Feili smiled happily, and with the smile blooming, the accumulated wrinkles on his face meandered like poisonous snakes: "I want to leave this position to you."

Sheng Jiale lowered his head and said indifferently, "I'm not interested."

"Listen to me." Feili smiled and signaled Sheng Jiale not to rush to conclusions: "The leader only needs to be capable and prestigious, to be recognized by the brothers in the club, and to stand at the forefront of the club when something happens. , but the position of the elderly is different. To know how to eat brains, not only must you not be greedy, but you must also be able to be invincible. These four words are easy to say but difficult to do.”

Sheng Jiale picked up a crystal shrimp and threw it into his mouth, as if he was deaf to Philip's words.

"I checked, you are not greedy, you only do women's business, and you will never do other business rashly because of greed. Similarly, you don't fight when things happen, and you will only make a move when someone hits you, so this position , you are the most suitable person."

"I took over this position in 25, and now it's been [-] years in [-], and I've lost all my hair, so I want you to stay with me for three years, so that you can understand how to be an old man, etc. You understand thoroughly, and after I am qualified to officially take over, I will go to Nanwan to accompany my daughter, coax my grandson, take care of my life, and hand over the entire club to you."

"It's easy to learn. It doesn't matter who is the leader. You just need to advise those people. If the leader is a self-willed idiot, use your brain to replace him and find someone who understands your ideas better. Position, the rest of the time, it doesn’t matter whether you like to do business or care for the elderly, you can even slowly train the next person who can take your place.”

"As for the benefits, the public accounts of the association, that is, the company's money, will be taken care of by the elderly. If you want A money, it's easy. If you don't A money, they will also send a share of the money they earn from business every year. , although it is not much, but there is always a total of one million or hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.”

Feili talked for a long time, but Sheng Jiale remained silent. Seeing Sheng Jiale just bowed his head to eat, Feili sighed:
"Of course, you can also refuse me, and it won't have any effect if you refuse me. You can continue to wash your hands and go to the mainland to do business, but I think you can only smuggle there. The old people in the community have a lot of contacts, I know You went to apply for the Home Return Permit today. If you agree to continue to stay in the community, the Home Return Permit will be delivered on time in one month. You can go to the mainland to do business in an open and honest manner. If you refuse, I guarantee that your Home Return Permit will never be issued. It turns out that even if you wash your hands in a golden basin, you can only continue to be blind. You are a smart person, you can go back and think about it slowly. There are fewer and fewer young people in the club who know how to use their brains. It will be cut off by the successor."

"Actually, you don't understand at all..." Sheng Jiale raised his head, looked at Philip opposite him, and took a deep breath: "I'm sitting here not because I'm afraid of threats from you guys, but because I'm born again For the first time, I don’t want to kill anyone with my own hands again, but I really can’t stand listening to your fairy tales, so I can only make an exception for you.”

While speaking, he leaned forward suddenly, and grabbed a chopstick on the table with his right hand!Holding Philip's bald head with his left hand, he stabbed the chopsticks into Philip's eye socket with his right hand!
Then he let go of his hand and let Fei Li struggle and fall on the seat with a chopstick stuck in his right eye. Sheng Jiale turned and walked towards the door, standing inside the door with a calm expression, and pressed the start of the rolling door. The electric rolling door outside slowly opened. It hangs down, revealing the small nameplate pasted on it: "The proprietor is happy, and the business is closed."

After Sheng Jiale pressed the switch, he slowly took off all his clothes and placed them neatly on the dining table next to him.

Then, in Gu Mei's magnetic and mellow singing, he walked naked to Fili, who was struggling and rolling on the ground, dragged his leg, and walked towards the back kitchen: "If you are really smart, you might as well guess what I did to make a Good man, what to do to you next."
