Zhou Tai laughed and said: "This is what it means for you to be out of date, Flower Young Master.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?
The smile on Hua Qianlou's face froze for a moment. He glanced at the man and smiled before nodding his head, "That's right. In your eyes, I'm nothing at all. I'll just ask you one thing. What kind of person do you want in order to qualify to be the boss?"
After being questioned by Hua Qianlou, the fatty's expression changed a few times but he did not dare say that he was qualified to be the boss, so he could not say why or why. In the end, he pointed at Hua Qianlou and said: "I do not care about that, but this is our own affair and as an outsider, you have no right to interfere!"
Hua Qianlou ignored him and swept his gaze across the rest of the group before saying: "Since everyone is here to negotiate, then everyone should understand that there's no benefit in continuing this internal conflict. Since everyone has seen the situation clearly, let me ask you, can you guys continue fighting?"
The six men shook their heads. They understood that the situation was tense, and that whoever dared to make a move would be dealt a heavier blow. They knew that whoever moved would die, although they weren't all that smart, they still understood this point.
"Since we can't keep fighting, we have to reconcile. We have to choose a new boss, right?" Hua Qianlou said with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other and frowned, they knew that if Hua Qianlou continued to walk around like this, they would have nothing to say. Zhang Dazhong slammed his hand on the table and said loudly: "Kid, who are you, it seems like you are not the only one who is in charge of our family matters. Atai, what do you mean by calling everyone here, is to let this brat mess things up?"
Zhou Tai's brow sank as he coldly said, "Brother Zhang, I'm giving you face before calling you brother. You don't have to bother with my matters."
"But if you let this brat cause trouble for us, I'll take care of it!" Zhang Dazhong also shouted loudly.
The fatty from before also said amiably, "That's right. This matter can only be discussed by the seven of us. We can only meddle in other people's business!"
As for the other four, they sat there quietly and didn't say anything. They were a bit shrewd and knew to observe the situation first so that they wouldn't offend others by speaking carelessly.
"Since the two of you are so agitated, I might as well explain it to you. Actually, there's only one reason why I called you here today, and that is to stop being so cocky, to consider your own abilities and those of your subordinates, and then to think about whether you have the ability to be the big brother underworld of the Rui'an City. If you feel that you are qualified enough for the position of Tian Zhaolong, then take your people and leave right now!"
He glanced at the rest of them, then slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Your father has long known that this is a Hongmen Banquet, but let me tell you, if you want to use this small amount of power to scare me off, then don't hold back. Brothers, let's go!"
Zhang Zhong waved his hand and the seven to eight youngsters behind him at the round table stood up without a word and followed their boss out.
Zhou Tai's eyes were like torches as he coldly looked at these people coming down the stairs. He didn't say anything as he waited for them to leave. He looked at the fat man and said: "Li Kuo, what about you?"
He seemed to be a little afraid of Zhou Tai, so he quickly moved his head to the side and thought: "I also have to be clear with my words. I, Li Kuo, do not have the life to be the big boss, and I can't do it well, but we have to discuss our own matters, no outsiders are allowed to interfere."
Zhou Tai's brow sank. Just as he was about to speak, Hua Qian Xun laughed and waved his hand: "Good, you have your principles. Not bad, since you say so, then I, Hua Qian Xun, will be treated as a guest and will listen to your conversation." After saying that, he turned to look at Atai and nodded. His meaning was very clear, the full authority would be given to him to handle.
Zhou Tai received Hua Qian Xun's trust, his spirit lifted, and his courage increased. He sat back down, clasped his hands at the other five people, and said: "Thank you brothers for your respect, we can still stay. Thank you here, Ah Tai. Since everyone is here, then I, Atai, will show some emotion. Today, I have called you here to discuss the candidates for the new Big Brother, I do not want to see all of us brothers fall to the end of the fight, because of the fight between us, and I do not want to see all of us brothers fall to a good end, and all of you come out to fight, and fight for more money, but all of you have to work within your means, and all of you have to act, and I will not give up the position of Big Brother. Today, if you are willing to follow me, from today onwards, you will benefit greatly, and if you are not, and if you are not, follow me.
In the past, Atai had never expressed his stance, he had only fought for it according to Hua Qianlou's intentions, trying to capture as many of the territory and underground brothers as possible. Because he thought that Hua Qianlou wanted to be the boss, he had never made his stance clear, but now, with Hua Qianlou's support and recognition, he made his intentions clear for the first time. This caused the other people present to be slightly moved and had no choice but to take into account the weight of his words.
