Chapter 48 Night View of Tai Po
Liangji Timber Factory.
The boss, Huang Liang, bowed and scraped respectfully as he handed over the six menacing-looking Li Hezi.
Four-Eyed Pillar arranged for someone to come and find Huang Liang, as the timber factory was responsible for the Tolo Harbour Highway issue.
"Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that you're from Tai Po Chicken, we would have burned your factory down!"
Li Hezai cursed and swore, then lifted the bag in his hand: "Give me the remaining million within a week!"
"it is good."
Huang Liang bowed and scraped until they left, then cursed fiercely a few times before picking up the phone to complain to his wife.
His wife called his sister: "Sister, is your husband really the boss of Helihe?"
He Lihe came to us demanding two million, saying they couldn't pay, and then burned down our timber mill..."
···
7 PM.
The Mazda was parked on the banks of the Linhe River in Tai Po.
Wu Tianyao got out of the car and walked into the seafood restaurant. The table had been reserved in advance, and he was led inside.
With the private room window open, you can see the scenery outside.
Wu Tianyao made a phone call: "Ah Hao, how's it going on your end?"
"It's done." Tan Hao's voice came: "I'm just waiting for Brother Yao to say something."
Wu Tianyao raised his hand and glanced at his watch: "How about this, eight o'clock is an auspicious time, is that alright?"
"No problem, Yao-ge," Qin Hao replied immediately.
Soon.
Boss Lei and Wang Heting entered one after the other, exchanged pleasantries, and then took their seats.
"Mr. Wu, why did you come all this way?" Wang Heting handed over a premium pack of Liqun cigarettes. "What, is this restaurant in Dapu famous?"
"I don't know, I've never been here before."
Wu Tianyao shook his head, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and gestured towards the window: "I heard that the scenery here is nice, so I came. I'll show you around."
Both Boss Lei and Wang Heting looked out the window; the night view was quite nice.
There's not much of a night view outside.
"Hahaha..."
Boss Lei laughed loudly: "Come on, let's raise a glass first. Congratulations, Mr. Wu. Now everyone in Qingshan Road knows that there's a handsome guy named Wu Tianyao."
Various delicacies were served, and the three began to drink and chat.
Eight o'clock.
Liangji Timber Factory.
Inside the factory.
The night shift workers were cutting wood and making furniture according to the blueprints; everything was as usual.
suddenly.
"Fire! Fire! Fire!"
Wood shavings are highly flammable; a single spark can ignite them, and the fire can spread rapidly.
The workers ran out of the factory, where a raging fire had broken out and was impossible to contain. They called the fire department to put out the fire.
Private room.
"That's all for today?"
Seeing that it was almost time, Boss Lei prepared to get up and leave, but hesitated and held back.
If he remembers correctly.
Wu Tianyao talked to him about collecting red envelopes and the timber factory, but Wu Tianyao didn't mention it again during the meal, so he didn't feel comfortable asking about it.
Just then.
Boss Lei inadvertently glanced at the horizon that was dyed red, narrowed his eyes to focus, and could vaguely see the fire.
Isn't this the direction of Liangji Timber Factory?!
"The scenery in Tai Po is truly exceptional." Boss Lei's face beamed with joy. "Investing in Mr. Wu has doubled our returns—it's a steal!"
He walked up and warmly shook Wu Tianyao's hand: "Mr. Wu, I have other things to attend to, but I'll definitely treat you to a good meal another day!"
he knows.
Next, my woodworking factory's orders will definitely increase infinitely.
Many things need to be prepared now.
Making money can't be delayed.
"Then we won't stop Boss Lei from making money."
After seeing Boss Lei off, Wu Tianyao casually picked up Wang Heting's premium pack of Liqun cigarettes: "Mr. Wang, the Liqun cigarettes you gave me are almost finished."
"I'll have someone send you a few boxes tomorrow, plenty of them." Wang Heting re-examined Wu Tianyao.
He realized that he had underestimated Wu Tianyao's decisive and ruthless nature; he was a formidable man.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang."
Wu Tianyao didn't stand on ceremony at all, and walked out with him one after the other: "At the Kwai Chung Container Terminal, is Mr. Wang familiar with the other bosses?"
"Want to promote your herbal tea business?"
"The profits are small, so every little bit helps. There are a lot of people at the dock, so every little bit adds up."
"Haha, no problem."
Wang Heting laughed loudly: "Do you know that when Wang Qing's special report was released last time, the welfare of dockworkers suddenly came to the forefront of attention?"
"Let me tell you, my Pier No. 6 suddenly became a role model, and also a target of everyone's envy. The workers at the other docks were dissatisfied with their bosses, which made those dock bosses hate me whenever they saw me!"
He looked at Wu Tianyao with a smile: "You gave Boss Lei such a big gift, he will definitely thank you. I feel that the mention of the herbal tea is pretty much true."
"Then thank you very much, Mr. Wang!"
Wu Tianyao extended his hand: "If possible, could you please organize a gathering for me and treat everyone to a meal together?"
"No problem."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries and then went their separate ways.
Tai Wo Garden, Tai Po.
Daepo Chicken came out of the toilet after taking a shower.
The pills I'd swallowed beforehand were now taking effect. I went into the bedroom, pounced on my wife, and prepared to have a talk.
Dapo Chicken had the worst day ever, getting a beating from Four-Eyes Pillar.
When he got home, his wife scolded him again, saying that he couldn't even protect his sister-in-law's timber factory and that Lihe's people came to his door and he had to pay two million in compensation.
Dapu Chicken could only watch helplessly as this matter unfolded.
Four-Eyed Pillar arranged for someone to go to Huang Liang to ask for money, and he dared to stop them?
He could only blame Huang Liang for being stupid, for not even being able to keep an eye on the timber factory, which had blocked the road and ruined the gang's business, and he accepted his bad luck.
Da Puji even promised to collect less protection money later and slowly help him make up for it, which finally managed to appease his wife.
He got into bed, turned over, and was just about to get ready to try when the phone on the bedside table rang. He hung up, but it rang again.
His wife looked at the spirited chicken in front of her, reached out and took it.
As she listened, she shoved Da Puji away and kicked him off the bed.
"Damn it, what the hell are you doing?" Da Puji scrambled to his feet, his enthusiasm flaring up from being interrupted: "What's wrong with you, you busybody?"
"Divorce! Divorce tomorrow!" his wife yelled. "Zou Dong, you piece of trash! How could I have ever fallen for a piece of trash like you? You can't even protect your own people, and you let others trample on you like this!"
Da Pu Ji was completely bewildered, and only after listening intermittently did he understand: Liang Ji's woodworking factory caught fire at night, the factory buildings were burned to the ground, and all the raw materials and finished products in the warehouse were turned into charcoal embers.
"Bang!"
Da Puji grabbed a glass from the bedside table and smashed it on the floor: "Four-Eyes, you fucking bastard, you've gone too far!"
He himself said he would cover the cost of the medicine this time.
Huang Liang also gave them one million in cash first, and the remaining one million would be paid later.
that's it.
Four-Eyed Pillar even arranged for people to burn the bright yellow woodworking factory?
damn it.
Four-Eyed Pillar doesn't take himself seriously at all!
"Boss, hello, I, Da Puji, have finally seen clearly today. You are really amazing!"
When Four-Eyed Pillar heard Daepu Chicken's inexplicable phone call, he could only curse, "Crazy."
It wasn't until the news came that Liangji Timber Factory had caught fire that Four-Eyed Pillar finally realized what was happening.
But he wasn't sure if it was done by one of his own people.
Four-Eyed Pillar ordered his men to go to Liang's timber mill to find Huang Liang. He told his underlings: If we can't collect this amount, we'll burn down his timber mill.
