Chapter 305: Is there anyone named Xiangzi in your place?
Chapter 305: Is there anyone named Xiangzi in your place?
Lin Ze looked at Liu Si'er, who was standing with his head down like a primary school student being punished, and wanted to scare him.
After all, as Niu Saner said, although this man's car dealership is not the largest, he is the boss of the car dealerships in the outer city. In later generations, he would also be the president of an industry association. He must be well-informed about various news in the industry.
Lin Ze slammed the table, "How dare you! You car dealers must have seen the tram company snatching your business, so you instigated the drivers to cause trouble, and it would be best if you smashed the tram repair factory and stopped the tram line from operating, right!"
When Liu Sier heard this, he was shocked. What kind of temper does Master Lin have? How could he change his attitude so suddenly?
He is nearly seventy years old. He has been hanging around on the streets since the previous dynasty. During the Boxer Rebellion, he followed those senior brothers and second brothers to fight and kill, and he has been to jail and committed crimes. Now he has finally understood one thing, that is, the people should not fight against the officials. No matter you are a big gangster on the street or a businessman, when you meet an official, you have no choice but to obey.
He quickly bowed and saluted, "Master Lin, Master Lin, listen to me, this matter has nothing to do with us! There are many people who can't make a living now, and they all want to pull rickshaws, so we don't have to worry about renting out our rickshaws. No matter whether their business is good or not, they have to pay the daily rickshaw share. Even so, there are still many people who want to do this business, and we don't need to instigate them to cause trouble!"
This is the truth. People say that pulling a rickshaw is hard work, but even this kind of hardship is not something that everyone can endure.
Some people want to eat, but either can't afford the car fee, or don't know the car dealership owner, and the owner won't rent them a car!
Speaking of this, there are tens of thousands of rickshaw drivers in Peking nowadays, and nearly half of them are bannermen. No matter whether you are a beile or a beizi, you still have to eat!
Therefore, in later generations, there are always people who feel very proud when they say that they are from the banner, thinking that their ancestors were very rich. But in fact, they don’t even know what their ancestors did several generations ago.
Many of the service workers in theaters, brothels and prostitutes are from the Banner, and they are all from the lowest class.
"Is there no need to cause trouble? The drivers can't earn enough money for their meals, and you keep asking for their share every day. They can't survive, so they will cause trouble. I think it's you who are the ones who instigated it, but you are the ones who forced it! Today, even the front army was alarmed. Do you know what crime this is? If you know what's good for you, go to the gendarmerie headquarters and turn yourself in. Your money is hot, I dare not take it."
Liu Si'er became anxious.
He is already this old. When he was young, he was fearless, but now if he is to be sent to jail again, it will cost him his life!
"Master Lin, these are all our gifts. We know we can't offend you with these gifts, so here are some documents. From today on, all the car dealerships in the outer city will have a 30% share from you. The future bonuses will be sent to you monthly. Master Lin, I swear to God, today's incident has nothing to do with us. We make a living from the car dealerships. Who would destroy their own jobs?"
Damn, these guys are quite generous!
One move is three components.
One or two car dealerships are not very eye-catching. For example, Liu Si'er's car dealership has only dozens of cars, and the profit throughout the year is only a few thousand yuan. For ordinary people, this is an astronomical figure, but for Lin Ze, it is not enough.
But according to Liu Si'er, this share of money does not belong to just one or two car dealerships, but to all the car dealerships in the outer city. There are more than 900 car dealerships in Beiping City now, and most of them are in the inner city. But even so, there must be at least 200 car dealerships in the outer city.
A little bit adds up to a lot. Even if each dealership gives him two or three hundred yuan in dividends every year, with so many car dealerships that would amount to tens of thousands of yuan a year.
"Manager Liu, then tell me, why did all these drivers go to the Temple of Heaven this morning as if they had agreed on something?"
Liu Si'er hesitated for a while, then made up his mind, "Master Lin, I'll tell you the truth, this is my token of surrender. There are some clubs among the drivers, this is from more than ten years ago. They used to organize the drivers to go on strike and negotiate prices with the car dealerships, but later they gradually became less powerful and haven't caused trouble for many years. I heard that this time, there was a big shot among the drivers, named Jia Chunshan, and he was the one who instigated this incident!"
Lin Ze nodded, "Since you said so, I will reluctantly help you. Go back and tell your shopkeepers that if someone comes to investigate, you should cooperate well. If anyone wants to arrest someone who shouldn't be arrested, just call me. Got it?"
Liu Si'er was overjoyed, "I know, I know! Don't worry, Master Lin, since you are willing to give us this favor, you will have the final say in the car dealership in the outer city from now on. We will do whatever you order!"
It is a good thing to build up some influence in the rickshaw dealer group. Many spies disguise themselves as rickshaw drivers. If something happens, it will be an extra trump card.
[Ding! It is detected that the host illegally holds shares of non-listed companies. Reward: Coachman's Body]
[The Holy Body of the Rickshaw Driver: When you pull a rickshaw, you will run very fast]
The system is screwing up again.
"By the way, Shopkeeper Liu, is there anyone named Xiangzi among you?"
Xiangzi?
Liu Si'er thought for a long time and said, "Master Lin, we don't have this person."
Well, it seems to be just a coincidence. After all, the time now does not match that in the book "Camel Xiangzi".
Lin Ze waved his hand, and Liu Si'er left with many thanks. When he returned to his car dealership, he became Liu Siye again.
He held his head high, chest puffed out, hands behind his back, and walked in a square step, without any trace of the cautious look he had just shown.
Many car dealership owners were waiting for him here. When they saw him coming back, they all asked, "Fourth Master, how are you?"
"Has Director Lin agreed?"
"That's right. The whole city is in an uproar now. What can we do?"
Mr. Liu coughed calmly, and someone immediately brought him a teacup. He took a sip slowly, spat out a leaf, sat down at the table, lit up his hookah, took a few puffs, and then said slowly, "What do you mean by 'how'? Director Lin still gave me some face."
Everyone was stunned, and then overjoyed, "Director Lin accepted it."
Mr. Liu blew into the hookah with a "puff" sound, and the burnt ash was blown out. He slowly pinched some tobacco to fill it, lit it again, and then said, "I accept it."
"It's up to you, Fourth Master, to take action!"
"Otherwise, how come you are the head of our outer city car dealership?"
Mr. Liu Si said sternly: "Director Lin is the head of our outer city car dealership!"
