Zhou Tai laughed and said: ”This is what it means for you to be out of date, Flower Young Master. Right now, the real fights are all those suits. I want to keep up with the times.”
Then, the two of them walked upstairs. Zhou Tai lowered his voice slightly and said softly: ”The situation is currently very chaotic, but everyone knows that if the chaos were to continue, there is no way out, so they sat down to negotiate. However, the six of them took advantage of the chaos to take control of a portion of the people and their chests, and no one is willing to submit to them. They are currently in a stalemate.”
Hua Qianlou nodded slightly and said, ”Is there no one who respects you?”
Zhou Tai's heart trembled, thinking about how Hua Qianlou wanted him to clean up the mess after killing Tian Zhaolong but now that he has created this situation, it was a sign that he did not have enough power. He quickly said: ”It's all because I'm useless, I don't have enough prestige to scare them off, after the news of Tian Zhaolong's death spread out, these people originally had their own subordinates, but they all saw hope. Every obedient person, originally not only did I kill a few, but I also have more people under my command, so they gave me face and came here for this meeting. However, it's still a bit difficult for them to completely submit to me. After all, the upper management is fighting fiercely right now, and if I were to take the lead and strike again, I'm afraid there will be trouble. ”
He smiled and said, ”Don't be modest, a lot of things are just starting. Everyone isn't born to be a good boss, able to handle all kinds of things, and these variables are still within my control, so I can't cause too much trouble. Take care of yourself and slowly learn from it, you won't be any worse than Cai Bin, and you won't be worse than Tian Zhaolong, understand?”
Zhou Tai saw that not only did Hua Qianlou not blame him, but he was encouraging himself instead. His heart warmed up and his eyes flashed with two bright lights. He looked at Hua Qianlou and nodded his head vigorously: ”Yes, Young Master Hua, I understand!”
Hua Qianlou laughed and waved his hand, saying, ”You just lack the arrogance and confidence that you have. From now on, you have to remember that you are the boss of Rui An city. You have to act like a big boss. Remember, be confident!”
Zhou Tai took a deep breath and nodded.
In the middle of the huge hall of the second floor, there was a large round table, surrounded by six round tables. On each round table sat seven or eight young men, each of them sitting behind their boss, wearing thick clothes, some of them even had clothes stuck up their armpits, those who were on the street could tell at a glance what was hidden inside.
Hua QianXun's eyes swept across the crowd as he smiled faintly. At this time, the six people seated around the round table in the middle also turned their gazes towards him, all of them landing on his body!
The youngest was around the same age as Zhou Tai, and they appeared to be about twenty years old. It was clear that they were very interested in Hua Qianlou's identity, and the oldest one glanced at Hua Qianlou and said to Zhou Tai: ”Atai, what is the meaning of this? Today is a family matter, how can we let outsiders come? It doesn't seem to be in accordance with the rules!”
Zhou Tai looked at Hua Qianlou and saw that he was smiling but did not have any intention of speaking. He said to the man: ”Zhang Dazhong, do I, Zhou Tai, need you to teach me a lesson? Can you tell me that all of these people you brought over are members of the Congregation? ”
Hearing this, the corners of Zhang Dazhong's mouth twitched a few times and he became a bit speechless. It was just as Zhou Tai had said. Quite a few of the people he had brought with him today did not join. One must know that although the Boxer Association had always existed, after Tian Zhaolong became the Chairman, because his personal ability was outstanding, he took control of all the power in the Association. Afterwards, he did not pay much attention to this Guild, and the number of people that truly joined was not many, and even outside, everyone only knew that he was the head of the underworld in Rui An city and did not know that he was the leader of the Council.
After all, unlike in ancient times, gangs needed a well-known name and were very beneficial for the development of their gangs. But in this society, gangs didn't need gangs, and Tian Zhaolong believed that gangs were too easy to catch and kill in one fell swoop, so he didn't pay much attention to the joining of his brothers. Only those who had accompanied him in the early years and were later more capable were allowed to join the gangs.
Zhou Tai's rebuttal made Zhang Dazhong feel embarrassed, but facing Zhou Tai who had a tough attitude, Zhang Dazhong didn't say anything, he only coldly snorted. As for the other five, they didn't say anything about Zhou Tai and only looked on from the sidelines.
That was to say, none of the six dared to challenge Zhou Tai alone, which meant that Zhou Tai was not as weak as he claimed to be. In fact, because he had been the first to make a move, coupled with the fact that he had been highly valued by Tian Zhaolong and Cai Bin, he had some personal capabilities, so he had the most comrades below him. Currently, he had the largest control over the territory, and although the other six people were unwilling to accept it, but none of them dared to confront him at this time.
Having clearly seen this, a new strategy arose in Hua QianXun's mind. He walked with Zhou Tai to the round table, and seeing Zhou Tai pull up the chair for him, he smiled and shook his head: ”I've already said that from today onwards, you're the boss of Rui An city.”
When Hua Qianlou said this, everyone was shocked, especially the six people sitting around the table. All of them stared at Zhou Tai and Hua Qianlou, and a slightly plump youth sneered and said: ”Good boy, who do you think you are?
