"Little brother, why do you study so seriously?"
There are actually many reasons why you study, including Bai Ling's reason, Zeng Yaqian's reason, and also the reason why you don't want to live up to the old professor's expectations. , but in the final analysis, Lu Shanmin thought that he wanted to study.
After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to study."
This answer is very simple and pure, but it is an answer that Hu Weiyong did not expect. Many scholars have been reading for a lifetime, but they cannot escape the four words of fame, fortune and wealth. Unexpectedly, a mountain villager would say it in one sentence. Understand the true meaning of reading.
Hu Weiyong nodded, "Well said, the bottom line of Wei Zheng's words is to use other people's successes and failures as one's own reference. There is no escape from the word success or failure. He has learned civil and military skills since ancient times. The word fame and wealth has not escaped the attention of both the goods and the imperial family, and your answer is really shocking."
Lu Shanmin scratched his head in embarrassment, "Uncle, you are flattering me, I just said what I was thinking."
Hu Weiyong nodded, "I can be considered half a scholar, but it's a pity that I haven't reached your level after studying all my life." He then said with a relaxed face, "It's okay, I don't understand at all." I never thought about reading such a realm, otherwise, I would really be ashamed of myself."
Lu Shanmin didn't quite understand what Hu Weiyong said, so he smiled in agreement, "Uncle, it's still the old rules."
Hu Weiyong nodded, "The old rules."
Lu Shanmin took out five skewers of beef and started tossing and turning on the barbecue grill. Hu Weiyong still stood watching with a calm expression.
"Little brother, your innocent heart is very admirable."
Regarding Hu Weiyong's unwarranted praise, Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Uncle, you are flattering."
"Haha, don't be too busy being modest. I haven't finished speaking yet, but it's not suitable for this society."
Lu Shanmin was stunned for a moment, always feeling that this uncle always spoke strangely today.
"I haven't thought about this problem, I just do what I want to do."
Hu Weiyong smiled and said, "That's the problem."
Lu Shanmin raised his head and looked at Hu Weiyong in confusion, "What's the problem?"
"Haha, think about it, although you keep your head down and work hard on your own affairs, on the surface, you are not the same as There is no dispute in the world. In fact, it may have affected the interests of others and been involved in the whirlpool of the fight without knowing it."
The barbecue in Lu Shanmin’s hand paused for a moment, feeling that the uncle’s words seemed to have something to say. During this period, Lu Shanmin did vaguely feel that he had entered an inexplicable whirlpool. I still can’t figure out who the person who followed me that day was and what their purpose was.
Lu Shanmin asked tentatively, "What does uncle mean?"
Hu Weiyong pointed to the history textbook, "This book only talks about one truth."
"What's the truth?"
"Peace in the world is achieved by fighting for it."
Seeing Lu Shanmin looking at him blankly, Hu Weiyong smiled knowingly, "In this world, you can never sit back and enjoy the success of the world. In this era of great contention, if you don't look for trouble, trouble will come to you. You can’t hide.”
Before leaving, Hu Weiyong gave Lu Shanmin a phone number and said that if there was any trouble that could not be solved, he could call him.
Holding a small piece of paper with a phone number written on it, he looked at the back of this strange uncle until he disappeared from sight.
Lu Shanmin turned to Lin Dahai and asked, "Uncle Hai, based on your decades of experience in traveling across the East China Sea, such a well-dressed and gentle-spoken person often comes to places like Minsheng West Road for barbecue. "Isn't it normal?"
Lin Dahai glanced at Lu Shanmin and said, "Everything was normal before you came. When you came, everything became abnormal. Now it's abnormal and it's normal. I'm even surprised." No more weird."
Lu Shanmin frowned and shook his head. The strange words said by this strange uncle gave Lu Shanmin a very bad feeling.
What is most lacking in this era is people, and what is most lacking is talent. No matter how powerful a person is, when he develops to a certain level, he must rely on a group of talents to support him. After several contacts with Lushan people, Hu Weiyong received many surprises. When he first came up with this plan, he didn't have too many expectations for Lu Shanmin. He also held the idea that if it worked, it would work. If it didn't work, it would be a shock to Wang Dahu to stop him from being too arrogant. Unexpectedly, Lu Shanmin was a very interesting person, and he actually had some nurturing thoughts.
People like Lu Shanmin can be said to be a blank piece of paper. Hu Weiyong is very interested in painting the color he wants on this white paper. For people like Lu Shanmin, things need to be done slowly and slowly, not in a hurry. He believed that with Wang Dahu's caution, he would never be able to endure it for too long. He was not taking action now, but he had not yet figured out the situation and did not dare to take action easily. Therefore, it would be most appropriate for Wang Dahu to give the strong medicine to Lushan people.
Although Hu Weiyong would not be arrogant and look down on Wang Dahu, a farmer with a mud-legged background, the situation was such that he was a bar owner, and to put it bluntly, he was just working for himself. Now he had to use him as a last resort. . As long as Lu Shanmin is willing to step forward and let Lu Shanmin manage any one or two of the three bars, what can he, Wang Dahu, do. As for whether Wang Dahu will stumble, Hu Weiyong is not worried at all. If he is playing cleverly, Wang Dahu's social resources are not at the same level as his. A casual phone call can send him into trouble; if he is playing dirty, Wang Dahu Don't dare to go too far. As long as Lu Shanmin gathers a team, all three bars can terminate their contracts with him at any time. As for personnel, that is not a problem. There are still few migrant workers in the labor market. Just recruit a dozen or twenty of them and put them under Lu Shanmin's command to form a team.
After all, Li Hao and Tang Fei had some friendship. When he learned that Tang Fei had gone to Wang Dahu's office, he couldn't help but worry, fearing that Tang Fei's fiery temper would offend Brother Dahu, and everything he had now would be in vain.
Making an excuse, Li Hao hurried to Wang Dahu's office, but Tang Fei had already left.
"Li Hao, what's the matter?"
"Oh, it's nothing serious. It's just that you asked me to keep an eye on Lu Shanmin last time and come over to report the situation to you."
Wang Dahu smiled and said, "Well, let's talk about it."
"Hu Weiyong went to the barbecue restaurant again today and talked with Lu Shanmin for more than ten minutes."
"Haha, that old fox is a little anxious."
"Afraid" Li Hao was a little confused.
"Yes, he didn't make any move after seeing me for so long. This is deliberately putting pressure on me."
Li Hao frowned, "Then what should we do next?"
Wang Dahu chuckled, "Why do I have the nerve to make him so anxious? Of course I will let him go." willing".
Li Hao frowned deeper and asked worriedly, "Brother Dahu really plans to attack Lu Shanmin. Isn't this to force Lu Shanmin to his side?"
Wang Dahu clicked Nodding, "I have already told Tang Fei. I believe Tang Fei will soon persuade Lu Shanmin to leave Minsheng West Road."
Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Although he did not have a close relationship with Lu Shanmin, he had met him twice and had a good impression of him. Coupled with his relationship with Tang Fei, he did not want to have a head-on conflict with him. Brother Dahu just wanted to persuade Lu Shanmin to leave Minsheng West Road, and he felt relieved.
"Will he leave?"
Wang Dahu chuckled, "Although Lu Shanmin is an unambitious person, he is by no means a person who shrinks and runs away. He will not leave." .
"Ah" "Then you should ask Tang Fei to persuade him"
Wang Dahu sneered, "Hu Weiyong didn't want me to give Lu Shanmin a strong dose of medicine to completely force Lu Shanmin If he takes his side, I will fulfill his wish."
Li Hao could not understand Wang Dahu's words more and more, "Why is this?"
Wang Dahu smiled meaningfully, "You will know later."
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a phone number, "Hello, Mr. Hu."
"Mr. Hu, it's been a long time since I called you. I want to give you a report on my work."
"It's no big deal. I'm here to take care of it. What happened in the bar?" It's okay."
"Oh, thank you for your trust, Mr. Hu. I just want to apologize to you. The increase in security fees last time was really helpless. You also know that after that bastard Liu Qiang ran away, I have to pay for the wages owed to more than a dozen security guards, otherwise, those people will have to demolish the Rose Bar."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Hu, for understanding. That's what I think. Now that the matter has passed, I plan to reduce the security fee back to the original 50,000 yuan a month."
"Mr. Hu is being polite. This is as it should be. Don't forget the well-digger when you are ready. I have not forgotten that it is you who supported me so that I can be where I am today."
Wang Dahu gave Li Chuan, the owner of the Rose Bar, Moonlight one by oneThe owner of the bar, Gao Junfeng, also made a phone call, and the content was exactly the same as Hu Weiyong's.
Li Hao was stunned in surprise, "Brother Dahu, what are you doing? The matter has not reached such a serious level."
"Haha, isn't this obvious? Show weakness to them."
Li Hao was confused by Wang Dahu’s thoughts, “Then will they let us go?”
Wang Dahu smiled slightly, “Li Hao, remember, they They are businessmen, not brothers who are loyal to the world. A businessman is like a wolf that hunts at any time. Have you ever seen a pack of wolves giving up their prey easily? The three of them have been playing the art of balancing for more than ten years, and the initiative has always been in their hands. In their hands, they will not let my family, Wang Dahu, dominate."
"Then, if everything is dead on both sides, why do we need to lower the price?"
Wang Dahu looked confident, "Li Hao, you have been following me for so many years, have you ever seen me fail?"
Li Hao shook his head.
Wang Dahu took a deep breath, "It's the same this time, I won't lose, and I can't afford to lose."
Li Hao's face was full of confusion, and he couldn't understand the tricks Wang Dahu played at all.
“But I still don’t understand.”
Wang Dahu chuckled, “When I was in the village, there was a man next door who was much stronger than me. He often bullied our family. He had several fights, and each time he was beaten to a bloody head. Later, I learned the lesson and nodded and bowed every time I saw him. Over time, he relaxed his guard against me. Once, when he was not paying attention, I At that time, I picked up a brick and slapped him hard on the back of the head. From then on, he lay on the bed and I came to Donghai."
Li Hao nodded, "You are deliberately showing weakness and paralyzing the other party."
Wang Dahu nodded and continued, "Go down and tell all the security guards that starting next month, everyone's salary will be halved."
Li Hao looked at Wang Dahu in astonishment, "Brother Dahu, isn't this good? It's easy to raise wages, but cutting wages may cause trouble."
Wang Dahu smiled and said, "Tell them that the reason for the salary reduction is because the owners of the three bars tore up the contracts and cut off our security fees. Don't worry, the security guards won't think about it. Why?"
Li Hao was thoughtful and his eyes lit up, "The strategy of mourning the soldiers is sure to win."
"Little brother, why are you studying so seriously?"
There are actually many reasons why you are studying, including Bai Ling's reasons, Zeng Yaqian's reasons, and not wanting to let down the old professor. There are many reasons for his expectations, but in the final analysis, Lu Shanmin thinks that he wants to study.
After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to study."
This answer is very simple and pure, but it is an answer that Hu Weiyong did not expect. Many scholars have been reading for a lifetime, but they cannot escape the four words of fame, fortune and wealth. Unexpectedly, a mountain villager would say it in one sentence.

People who have learned civil and military skills since ancient times, goods and emperors, have not escaped the word fame and fortune. Your answer is still It's really inspiring."
Lu Shanmin scratched his head in embarrassment, "Uncle, you are flattering me, I just said what I was thinking."
Hu Weiyong nodded, " I can be considered a half-reader, but it’s a pity that after reading all my life, I haven’t reached your level.” Then he said with a relaxed expression, “Fortunately, I never thought about reaching this level, otherwise , I’m really ashamed of myself.”
Lu Shanmin didn’t quite understand what Hu Weiyong said, so he smiled in agreement, “Uncle, it’s still the old rules.”
Hu Weiyong nodded, “Old "Rules".
Lu Shanmin took out five skewers of beef and started tossing and turning on the barbecue grill. Hu Weiyong still stood aside and watched with a calm expression.
"Little brother, Your innocent heart is very admirable."
Regarding Hu Weiyong's unwarranted praise, Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Uncle, you are flattering me."
"Haha, don't be busy yet. I have to be modest, I haven’t finished what I said, but it is not suitable for this society."
Lu Shanmin was stunned for a moment, always feeling that this uncle always spoke strangely today.
"I haven't thought about this problem. I just do what I want to do."
Hu Weiyong smiled, "That's the problem."
Lu Shanmin looked up. He looked at Hu Weiyong in confusion, "What's the problem with this?"
"Haha, think about it, although you keep your head down and work hard on your own affairs, seemingly indifferent to the world, in fact you might have already It affected other people's interests and got involved in the whirlpool of the fight without knowing it."
The barbecue in Lu Shanmin's hand paused for a moment, feeling that the uncle's words seemed to have something to say. During this time, Lu Shanmin did indeed He vaguely felt that he had entered an inexplicable whirlpool. He still couldn't figure out who the person who followed him that day was and what his purpose was.
Lu Shanmin asked tentatively, "What do you mean, uncle?"
Hu Weiyong pointed to the history textbook, "This book only talks about one truth."
"What truth?"
"The peace of the world must be achieved." ".
Seeing Lu Shanmin looking at him blankly, Hu Weiyong smiled knowingly, "In this world, there will never be peace of mind and contentment. In this era of great contention, if you don't look for trouble, you will be free. There will be trouble coming for you, and you can’t hide away.”
Before leaving, Hu Weiyong gave Lu Shanmin a phone number, saying that if there was any trouble that couldn’t be solved, he could call him .
Holding the small piece of paper with the phone number written on it, Lu Shanmin looked at the back of this strange uncle until he disappeared from sight.
Lu Shanmin turned to ask Lin Dahai, " Uncle Hai, with your decades of experience in traveling across the East China Sea, such a well-dressed and well-spoken personIt's not normal for polite people to often come to places like Minsheng West Road to have barbecue."
Lin Dahai glanced at Lu Shanmin, "Everything was normal before you came, but everything changed when you came. It was abnormal, and now it has become normal, and I am no longer surprised."
Lu Shanmin frowned and shook his head. The strange words said by this strange uncle made Lu Shanmin feel very strange. A bad premonition.
What is most lacking in this era is people, and what is most lacking is talent. No matter how powerful a person is, when he develops to a certain level, he must rely on a group of talents to support him. After meeting Lu Shanmin several times, Hu Weiyong got a lot of surprises. When he first came up with this plan, he didn't have too many expectations for Lu Shanmin. , let him not be too arrogant. Unexpectedly, Lu Shanmin is a very interesting person, and he actually has some nurturing ideas.
People like Lu Shanmin can be said to be a blank slate, and Hu Weiyong is very talented. He was interested in painting the color he wanted on this white paper. For people like Lu Shanmin, he had to simmer slowly and not rush. He believed that Wang Dahu would not be able to endure it for too long. He would not take action now. He hasn't figured out the situation yet, so he doesn't dare to take action easily, so it's best for Wang Dahu to give the strong medicine to Lu Shanmin.
Although Hu Weiyong would not be arrogant and underestimate Wang Dahu, a farmer with a mud-legged background. , but the situation is such that he is the bar owner, and to put it bluntly, he is just working for himself. Now he has no choice but to use him. As long as Lu Shanmin is willing to step forward, and if one or two of the three bars are managed by Lu Shanmin, what can he, Wang Dahu, do. So. As for whether Wang Dahu will get into trouble, Hu Weiyong is not worried at all. His social resources are not at the same level as his own, and a simple phone call can send him into trouble; He, Wang Dahu, doesn't dare to go too far. As long as Lu Shanmin builds a team, all three bars can terminate their contracts with him at any time. As for the personnel, that is not a problem. Are there still few migrant workers in the labor market? They can recruit a dozen or so at will. Twenty people can form a team under Lu Shanmin's command.
After all, Li Hao and Tang Fei have some friendship. When they learned that Tang Fei had gone to Wang Dahu's office, they couldn't help but worry, fearing that Tang Fei's hot temper would offend Dahu. Brother, everything he has now will be in vain.
Making an excuse, Li Hao hurried to Wang Dahu's office, but Tang Fei had already left.
"Li Hao," What's the matter?"
"Oh, it's nothing serious. It's just that you asked me to keep an eye on Lu Shanmin last time and come over to report the situation to you."
Wang Dahu smiled and said, "Well, let's talk about it."
"Hu Weiyong went to the barbecue restaurant again and talked with Lu Shanmin for more than ten minutes."

"Afraid" Li Hao was a little confused.
"Yeah, he didn't move after seeing me for so long.You are deliberately putting pressure on me."
Li Hao frowned, "Then what should we do next?"
Wang Dahu chuckled, "How could I have the nerve to let him do this? He's anxious, so of course he got his wish."

Wang Dahu nodded, "I have already told Tang Fei, and I believe Tang Fei will soon persuade Lu Shanmin to leave Minsheng West Road."
Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief, although he was on good terms with Lu Shanmin It's not that deep, but I have met him twice and I have a good impression of him. In addition, coupled with his relationship with Tang Fei, I don't want to have a head-on conflict with him. Seeing that Brother Dahu just wants to persuade Lu Shanmin to leave Minsheng West Road, I feel relieved.
"Will he leave?"
Wang Dahu chuckled, "Although Lu Shanmin is an unambitious person, he is by no means a shrinking person. He will not leave. ".
"Ah" "Then you should ask Tang Fei to persuade him."
Wang Dahu sneered, "Didn't Hu Weiyong want me to give Lu Shanmin a strong dose of medicine?" Are you completely forcing yourself on his side? I will fulfill his wish."
Li Hao could not understand Wang Dahu's words more and more, "Why is this?"
Wang Dahu smiled meaningfully Smile, "You will know later."
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a phone number, "Hello, Mr. Hu."
"Mr. Hu, I haven’t called you for a long time. I want to report on my work.”
“It’s no big deal. As long as I’m in charge, nothing will happen in the bar.”
"Oh, thank you for your trust, Mr. Hu. I just want to apologize to you. The security fee increase last time was really helpless. You also know that after that bastard Liu Qiang ran away, he had to pay for the wages he owed to more than a dozen security guards. I'm here to fix the hole, otherwise, those people will have to demolish the Rose Bar."
"Yes, yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Hu, for understanding. That's what I thought. Now the matter has passed. , I plan to reduce the security fee back to the original 50,000 yuan a month."
"Mr. Hu, you are polite. This is what you should do. Don't forget the well diggers. I have not forgotten that you are the one who supports me. , I am where I am today."
Wang Dahu also called Li Chuan, the owner of the Rose Bar, and Gao Junfeng, the owner of the Moonlight Bar, and the content was exactly the same as Hu Weiyong's.
Li Hao was stunned in surprise, "Brother Dahu, what are you doing? It's not that serious yet."
"Haha, isn't this obvious? Show weakness to them."

Li Hao was confused by Wang Dahu's thoughts, "Then will they let us go?"
Wang Dahu smiled slightly, "Li Hao, remember, they are a business People are not brothers with loyalty in the world. A businessman is like a wolf that hunts at any time. Have you ever seen a pack of wolves giving up their prey easily? The three of them have been playing for more than ten years.With years of balancing skills, the initiative has always been in their hands. They will not let my family, Wang Dahu, dominate."
"Then, why do we have to lower the price when both the left and right are dead?"
Wang Dahu looked confident, "Li Hao, you have followed me for so many years, have you ever seen me fail?"
Li Hao shook his head
Wang Dahu took a deep breath. , "It's the same this time, I won't lose, and I can't afford to lose."
Li Hao's face was full of confusion, and he couldn't understand the tricks Wang Dahu played.
"But I. I still don’t understand.”

Wang Dahu nodded and continued, "Go down and tell all the security guards that starting from next month, everyone's salary will be halved."
Li Hao looked at Wang Dahu in surprise, "Brother Dahu." , Isn’t this good? It’s easy to raise wages, but cutting wages may cause trouble.”
Wang Dahu smiled and said, “Tell them that the reason for lowering wages is because the owners of the three bars tore up their contracts and cut them off.” Our security fee has been paid, don’t worry, the little security guards will not think about the reason."
Li Hao thought thoughtfully, his eyes lit up, "A plan to defeat the enemy is a sure-win strategy."
