At this point, no matter how illiterate ban cuntou is, he knows that he can't stay here. He stares at Yang Xiaobao and squeezes out a sentence: "boss Yang, this is your last good meal. I'll let you eat first, and I'll take someone to wait for you outside."
Bancuntou endured the pain of the fishbone on his face and walked away with the men and horses.
Since the client admitted to quit, the manager of the restaurant naturally didn't want to be fussy. He ordered the waiter to serve a basin of fish soup for Yang Xiaobao and shanaya.
Yang Xiaobao and shanaya continue to eat leisurely. After nearly an hour, they had enough to eat and drink, got up and left the restaurant, and slowly went back to the hotel room upstairs.
As soon as he got to the sofa and sat down, before he finished smoking one of his after dinner cigarettes, someone knocked on the door outside.
"Here we go again, please! I don't think we need to talk to these guys who don't know their faces. We can just send them to the morgue. " Shanaya frowned. Without waiting for Yang Xiaobao's signal, she directly took out her gun and crept to the back of the door, ready to open the door immediately.
Yang Xiaobao laughed and put a hand to stop shanaya: "it's not the enemy, it's the guest. The enemy will only smash the door, not knock. You'd better put away your gun and don't scare the guests. "
"The enemy will knock, OK?" Shanaya didn't agree and refused to put the gun away.
"The first group of people sent by the party tiger knocked at the door, and the second group of people also gave up their cruel words. The routine of propriety before soldiers has been completed. How can the third group of people sent by the party tiger be polite?" Yang Xiaobao stands up with a laugh, goes to put the tiny browning in shanaya's hand back to her, and then opens the door.
Standing at the door was a middle-aged fat man with a big stomach and well-dressed, dark complexion and slightly curly hair. These remarkable features show that this person is not of Chinese origin, but a native.
The middle-aged fat man looked at Yang Xiaobao and shanaya with inquiring eyes and muttered a few words that Yang Xiaobao didn't understand.
Shanaya couldn't help but widen her eyes and look surprised. She turned her head and said to Yang Xiaobao in Chinese, "he said that he is CaSki, mayor of Manila. My master called him to meet him. He came quietly from the city government without official business. He is asking us, "why is Gao Sihai not here, and who are we from Gao Sihai?"
Yang Xiaobao nodded and said with a smile, "that's right. Gao Sihai did tell me that he had such an iron brother. You tell him boss Gao is inconvenient to show up. I am his plenipotentiary, and I have very important things to help him with. "
Shanaya translated Yang Xiaobao's words. As soon as the mayor heard this, he immediately changed his face and muttered again. He turned around and was about to leave.
Yang Xiaobao turned to look at shanaya: "what's the matter with this fat man?"
"Shanaya frowned and said:" he said he only believed in his boss Gao himself and would not trust anyone but him. As mayor, he has a lot of business to do, so he has to go first. Brother Yang, shall we keep people
At this time, to keep people is not to persuade people with good words, but to prepare for rough actions. The mayor of Kasch was already opening the door. Shanaya's palm was raised. As long as he slapped on the back of his forehead, the guy would naturally stay.
"We are civilized people. Don't be rude." Yang Xiaobao shook his head and said with a smile, "just tell him to wait here for more than ten minutes, and your deputy will come. If he still insists on going, please do as you please
According to Yang Xiaobao's meaning, Sha Naya shouts a few words in Nanyang local language to mayor kaschi who has walked out of the room.
The effect of these words was immediate. Mayor Kasch stopped, his face changed slightly, and soon came back. He sat down on the guest sofa and muttered a word to shanaya.
"He said that since boss Gao has entrusted important matters, he is willing to wait here for another half an hour. He also asked which of his deputies was coming later Shanaya translated the mayor's words. After a sigh of relief, she was also confused. She pulled Yang Xiaobao's sleeve and asked quietly, "where's the deputy mayor? I've been listening to my master's conversation with you all the time. There is no such number one in his list of local dignitaries that he can call. "
Yang Xiaobao shook his head and laughed: "of course, there is no such number one. I don't even know whether his deputy is male or female, and whether his title is called deputy mayor or secretary general. It's just a random story. "
Shanaya was surprised, with an incredible expression on her face: "is that ok? This old bureaucrat is no longer a child. Can he believe that? "
"Dare he not believe it?" Yang Xiaobao glanced at the mayor with a sarcastic look and said to shanaya with a smile: "old bureaucrats like them are naturally suspicious. They do not taboo collusion between officials and bandits, but they do not taboo collusion between officials and bandits behind their own backs. As soon as I say that his deputy is coming, naturally he will not dare to leave until he has a clear idea. "
Shanaya nodded, but after a little thought, she immediately shook her head again and again: "later, he can't see his deputy colleagues coming. That's not to help. At that time, he can't force others to stay. What's the use?"
Yang Xiaobao burst out laughing: "of course, it's useful. With the mayor in the back, all the local dignitaries will stay. With those leading figures coming from behind, the mayor also dare not go any further. This is called pig cheat dog, dog cheat pig immediately, no one knows what happened, also no one dare to leave. The more people there are, the better to fool. Otherwise, why do you think I want Gao Sihai to call more people over? "
Shanaiyapu chuckled. This routine is impossible to prevent.
Mayor Kasch doesn't understand Chinese. He just stares at the two men muttering and laughing in front of his face, and points out to himself. He knows in his heart that most of what they say is not a good thing, but he doesn't have the courage to pat his ass and walk away.
Soon, the second and third wave of visitors invited by Gao Sihai came one after another. These guests are all local dignitaries and celebrities, including famous business tycoons, high-ranking government officials, and big men in the Jianghu. Many of them know each other, even if they don't know each other, at least they have been famous for a long time.
This situation has led to a very wonderful situation: even if all these people are among the human spirits, they are all confused about the specific reason why Gao Sihai invited them. Moreover, they are very strange to Yang Xiaobao and shanaya who came out to receive them, but no one dares to pat their buttocks and leave. Everyone instinctively feels that, Senior sea god mysteriously gathered so many big people, there will be a very important event. No one wants to be left behind.
It was only half an hour before and after that, these big figures from Manila's black and white circles and the political and business circles came together one after another. Yang Xiaobao secretly counted the number in his heart, and it was just ten people.
Yang Xiaobao praised Gao Sihai in his heart. After all, the king of Asian gamblers is old Gao. Even if he is a Taoist figure who can't get on the stage and is on the edge of gray, he has accumulated some influence in Nanyang black and white over the years: at least none of these local celebrities he called out dares to break his appointment.
Ten dignitaries and celebrities gathered in the living room, exchanged greetings with each other, explored each other for a long time, and found that for a long time there was no host's house to entertain them, so everyone looked at each other.
As the mayor of Manila, Kasch can be regarded as the leading figure in this group of dignitaries. All of them turned their eyes to him, which meant that he would stand up and speak on behalf of all of them and ask Gao Sihai the real purpose of calling the party.
As an official figure, Kasch's appearance on this kind of grey occasion is somewhat embarrassing. At this point, Kasch had to stand up and said with a dry cough, "Mr. Gao, what's the important thing for boss Gao to call us here?"
Shanaya is going to translate his words. Yang Xiaobao looked around at the rich businessmen, political celebrities and xiahu tycoons, and said with a smile, "Mr. Gao has entrusted me to come to meet with you on his behalf. Of course, there are important things. But we don't have to worry. It's boring to just sit and talk. It's better to play a few rounds of cards first. When I've had enough, I'll be honest with you. "
As soon as this remark came out, these celebrities and dignitaries looked strange one by one. Look at me, look at you. For a moment, no one came out to answer. Finally, the mayor, who once made the first move, made the first move again and said with a dry smile, "you are Mr. Gao's person. We all know what his title is. How dare we play cards with you? We are all busy people. If Mr. Gao's business is not very urgent, why don't we make another appointment? "
Although the remark was half joking, it also clearly expressed the reluctance to stay here for no reason, and immediately aroused a burst of approval among the people.
Shanaya translated these words. Yang Xiaobao frowned slightly. What's more, he looked around at the guests and said with a smile, "I'm just asking you to play a card. You're all pushing around like this, as if I'm afraid I'll win your money - what if I ask you to play a card?"
With these words, people could not help looking at each other, and the air in the living room suddenly became tense.
