Inside the warehouse.
Su Tianyu put away his phone, looked up at Daxiong and said, "Dabai's brother died, I have to go to the funeral. No one comes to this warehouse usually, don't go out, just stay here to recover, I will be back tonight or tomorrow morning."
"Okay... okay, thank you, Xiaoyu brother!" Daxiong nodded slowly.
Su Tianyu took out the wallet in his trouser pocket and took out all the cash, about 1,500 to 1,600 yuan: "Take it, in case of emergency."
Daxiong looked at Su Tianyu in a daze, a little at a loss.
"It's okay, take it." Su Tianyu put the money next to the instant noodles, stood up and said, "Everyone outside is here to catch you, remember, don't go anywhere."
"I... I understand." Daxiong nodded.
"Okay, I'll go first." Su Tianyu turned around and walked out of the warehouse.
Daxiong looked at his back, carefully picked up the instant noodles, lowered his head and started eating.
…
In the evening, in the Bai family compound, funeral music was played and people were crowded. The neighbors around, as well as the managers and workers of the Bai family company, all came to mourn.
The blessing characters, couplets, and red lanterns posted in the courtyard during the New Year were all taken down and replaced with black and white cloth strips and wreaths. Only the scattered red firecracker debris on the ground looked particularly eye-catching.
When Su Tianyu stepped into the courtyard, he heard Bai Hongtao's sister, mother and others crying bitterly.
At the door, Bai Hongbo, who had just returned from the hospital, stood at the door of the main hall smoking, his face was very ugly.
"My condolences, brother." Su Tianyu walked over and whispered to him.
"Alas!" Bai Hongbo sighed, his eyes a little red.
The two stood in silence for a while, and the Yin-Yang master who had been in charge of the funeral at the door suddenly shouted: "Who is free? Drive to the vegetable market to buy a live rooster and some grains. Now we have to prepare the things for the burial."
"I'll go, I'll go." Su Tianyu immediately stepped down the steps, holding the car keys and replied: "What do you need? Just tell me once, and I'll buy it all at once."
In fact, when a man encounters difficulties and difficulties, he may not need other people's words of comfort and enlightenment, but may need companionship more.
Companionship between men.
Su Tianyu did not persuade Dabai, but just did what he could here, even if it was running errands, buying something, and doing whatever he could.
He was busy until after nine o'clock in the evening. There were fewer people in the yard, only the Bai family's vigil, the drum and music band hired, Yin-Yang master and others.
Bai Hongbo moved a chair and sat at the door of his house with Su Tianyu, Kong Zhenghui and others, in a daze and smoking.
Dabai was in a bad mood, and Kong Zhenghui did not choose to communicate with him frequently. He just turned his head and asked Su Tianyu: "Why do you ask me to get medicine?"
Su Tianyu glanced at him: "To treat the dog."
"Don't be ridiculous, give the dog medicine for gunshot wounds?" Kong Zhenghui whispered: "Did that guy come to you?"
Su Tianyu took a puff of cigarette and did not respond.
Kong Zhenghui is a very smart man. He did not mention Daxiong's name, but persuaded him in a very soft voice: "Brother, he killed police officers, and five of them. Do you have the ability to manage him? If you don't have the ability to manage him, you will both be trapped in the end; if you let others manage it, it is likely to implicate others as well. Do you understand what I mean?"
Su Tianyu looked at him: "I understand, I know what I mean."
Kong Zhenghui stopped there and immediately changed the subject and asked: "Xu Er is dead, Xu Hu will never let it go, how do you think the Code Gang will retaliate against us next?"
"It's hard to say." Su Tianyu shook his head slowly: "But judging from what happened at the foot of Chika Mountain, Xu Hu and his younger brother have a deep relationship, and they are prone to do radical things."
"After the funeral, we still have to have a good talk with the higher-ups."
"Zhenghui, what do you think is the gap between us and the Code Gang?" Su Tianyu asked.
Kong Zhenghui thought carefully and replied: "The difference lies in cohesion."
Su Tianyu nodded in agreement: "That's right. If people don't gather together and their hearts are not united, it will never become a trend if only the three leading big households make things happen."
Kong Zhenghui also agreed with Gou Liuzi's opinion and whispered to him.
...
The next day, afternoon.
In the warehouse of Mingyuan Trading Company, Daxiong had a slight fever. He lay on the pile of goods and felt thirsty and cold, so he kept drinking water.
"Buzz!"
Just when Daxiong was drowsy and wanted to sleep, the sound of a car engine suddenly sounded outside the warehouse.
Daxiong sat up with a flutter, covered the wound on his shoulder, immediately picked up the things on the ground, turned around and ran to the inner corridor.
About three or two minutes later, the warehouse door opened, and a man in a suit and leather shoes led an old man in.
"Recently, there was a case of killing a police officer in the city. The police chiefs of various districts have informed our trading companies to strengthen the control of their own warehouses and unmanned areas..." The man in a suit turned his head and said to the old man: "You can't be lazy when you are on duty at night. You have to come here from time to time."
In the corridor, Daxiong's forehead was sweating. He hid behind a pile of cardboard packaging boxes and listened to the conversation between the two.
"Also, the goods here are afraid of moisture. You have to come and clean them from time to time."
"Got it, got it." The old man nodded in response.
...
Tianhong Port, in front of the Xu family.
Several cars stopped, and Gu Tongshan walked down with a group of people.
"Hello, Mr. Gu!"
"Mr. Gu!"
"...!"
The code gang brothers in the yard came over in groups of three or five and greeted Gu Tongshan.
Gu Tongshan nodded slightly to everyone, led a group of people behind him, crossed the courtyard, and went to the main hall.
Inside the room, although Xu Hu was in a bad mood, he was still entertaining friends from the underworld who came to attend the funeral.
As soon as Gu Tongshan and others entered the room, everyone stood up.
"The master is here." Xu Hu immediately went to greet him.
"Come and take a look."
As soon as the two of them started talking, Xu Hu turned his head and looked to the side, but saw a familiar figure.
"My condolences, Boss Xu." Li Hongze stood next to Gu Tongshan and said softly.
Xu Hu not only saw Li Hongze, but also saw Lu Feng behind him.
Although the bosses of the Code Gang and the Dirty Gang knew each other, they did not have a deep friendship at ordinary times. It was obviously a bit abnormal that Li Hongze, Lu Feng and others could come with Gu Tongshan today.
Xu Hu was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand and said, "Long time no see, Boss Li, Boss Lu."
After everyone shook hands, Gu Tongshan said, "Everyone, please sit down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a henchman ran in and shouted, "Help, Chief Li Xing is here."
Xu Hu turned around and was stunned.
Li Xing is here too? All the influential people in Changqing Company in Zhannan are here today. What is he doing?
