In reality, the gang leader wasn't actually the boss of the county's black market, but rather a small-time thug who ran errands for the black market boss. The former gang leader was a ruthless person, acting without moral integrity and often ripping off the common people. Sometimes, when the current gang leader saw the former boss making money and was in a good mood, he'd say, "Big Brother, sometimes the common people just don't have enough money to buy food, so we'll just charge them less than the cost and sell it to them. In this lean time, saving a life is a blessing, and it's a good deed for us. The common people are having a hard time, too." But every time Big Brother agreed, he'd still rip off the common people the same way the next time. The current gang leader felt this man was inhumane and considered leaving him to strike out on his own.
Guan Huashu was in the county's family compound delivering goods when an older man from the Old Boys introduced them to each other years ago. The Old Boys were wealthy families in the compound, with many children and more people working, earning more money. But more people also meant more food. When food wasn't enough at home, wouldn't they have had to scavenge for food before the trio arrived? Later, after buying food from him a few times, the Old Boys became acquainted with Hei Lao Da and became his VIP client.
After the trio arrived, the Old Boys never again visited Hei Lao Da to buy anything. Hei Lao Da was puzzled. After all, he was a VIP customer with purchasing power. With food shortages everywhere, if he suddenly stopped buying, he would definitely investigate. Was he being poached? Before he could investigate, a member of the group came to him and introduced him to Guan Huashu.
The biggest characteristic of the gang boss is that he follows the rules and is fair in his work, and never cheats the people. After getting to know Guan Huashu, they worked together a few times, and it's no wonder that they both think each other is a good person and have similar temperaments.
At this point, the former gang leader heard the news and said, "Hey, you're just a small-time gangster who used to follow me. You got such a good source of goods, but instead of handing it over to me, you're actually selling it yourself without my permission. What are you trying to do? You're crazy! You're too young to think of standing on your own." So he brought a few of his buddies and started to cause trouble for him.
At first, the gang leader was concerned about their past relationship. After all, he had been a gangster, and without the gang leader's guidance, he wouldn't have gotten into the business or understood it. He tried his best to avoid confrontation, but he underestimated human nature. Seeing him avoid his attacks and not fight back, the gang leader assumed he was afraid of him, so he resorted to even more despicable tactics, ambushing him on his way home and attempting to cripple him. Fortunately, two young men he was dating on bicycles passed by and saved him, otherwise, he would have been completely crippled.
Later, Guan Huashu noticed that he hadn't contacted him or shipped any goods in the past two weeks, and he felt something was amiss. Through the old man who introduced him to the gang, he found out that he had been set up by his former gang leader. After hearing his story and the other members of the old gang recounting the many shady things the former gang leader had done in the black market, Guan Huashu became increasingly angry. After a moment's thought, he came up with a brilliant plan for the gang leader.
Guan Huashu was also a businessman in modern times, and a very successful and patriotic businessman.
In business, profit is paramount, that's true. But there's a premise: what time is it now? How many people have starved to death across the country? If you're still exploiting suffering at this moment, you're truly inhumane. Since you don't care about the people and are only focused on making money, I'll replace you with someone else to be the black market boss.
