I sighed. I never expected that Zhao Tiequan had such a hard time. It made me feel quite guilty.
"What happened between my dad and Hei Yanluo some time ago, do you think my dad doesn't want to take revenge? But he can't afford it! Once the fight starts, it's all about money. Money is money whether you open your eyes or close your eyes. Someone is injured and needs treatment? Someone dies in the battle and needs to be buried? Someone is in jail and needs to be rescued. Everything he does is about money. Now he can't even afford to eat. My dad can't afford this fight! There is no other way, he can only endure..."
As he spoke, Zhao Hongjun's eyes turned red again. He looked up at the sky, as if to prevent tears from falling: "A lot of brothers and sisters have run away in the past few days. At the peak, there were 300 or 400 people, but now there are only more than 100 people. If this continues, my father will be finished, and my family will be finished..."
"Brother Wang Hao?" A rough voice suddenly came.
I looked up and saw Zhao Tiequan and Peng Jiang walking towards me. The martial artists squatting and eating nearby all stood up and greeted them. Zhao Tiequan waved his hands one by one, and finally came to me and said, "Brother, why are you here?" Then he shook my hand and said, "Thank you for what happened that night. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Peng Jiang would have... Alas. I would have gone to thank you in person, but I've been too busy these days..."
"You're not too busy to get away!" Zhao Hongjun yelled at his father, "You don't have money. It's embarrassing to go empty-handed! Dad! Can you stop being so proud and suffer? To tell you the truth, I called Brother Hao here today just to let him see the plight of our family and see if he can return the Forest Bar to us!"
"Nonsense!" Zhao Tiequan was furious and slapped him.
Zhao Hongjun covered her face and cried, "Why can't we tell him? We can't even afford to eat, why can't we tell him? Brother Hao is a righteous man, as long as we tell him, he will definitely help us!"
"Stop messing around!" Zhao Tiequan slapped him again and said angrily, "I gave the bar away, how can I ask for it back? Go home and reflect on this!"
"No, no!" Zhao Hongjun was very stubborn.
Peng Jiang was anxious, but he couldn't stop the quarrel between the father and son. He could only keep saying, "Hongjun, stop talking."
The quarrel between the father and son also attracted the attention of other martial artists in the courtyard. Everyone stood up and there were random comments: "Master is really out of money!" "Why give away such a big bar?" "We can't even afford to eat, let's go. Master is a good master, but who doesn't need to eat..."
Zhao Tiequan was still beating Zhao Hongjun, and no one dared to stop them. Some people even put down their bowls and walked out the door.
Watching this scene and listening to Zhao Hongjun's crying, I felt very upset and almost said on the spot, "I'll give you back the Forest Bar." After all, I still have the gravel factory, so I'm not in financial difficulty at all. But the Forest Bar is not mine alone. The leaders of the Black Tiger Gang all have shares, and giving it away must be agreed by everyone.
I called everyone aside and asked, "What do you think?"
Brick said with red eyes: "What are you still looking at? Give it back to the owner. He can't even afford to eat."
Everyone nodded, they were indeed a group of loyal men. I was moved and was about to speak when I heard Miao Wenqing say, "Don't you think they are putting on a show for us?"
"Hey, how do you talk like that?!" Brick was the first to be dissatisfied.
"That's right, do you still have any conscience?" Quanhu said angrily.
But no one else said anything, instead they looked towards the courtyard. Ye Zhan said, "What a well-intentioned play."
The complaining martial artist, the aggrieved son, the angry father, the anxious Peng Jiang...
Everything was just for us to see. Ever since Zhao Hongjun asked me to come and see it this morning, the show has been going on in full swing.
Zhao Tiequan transferred the Forest Bar to me. How could Zhao Hongjun not know about this important event? How could other martial artists not know about it?
Miao Wenqing said leisurely: "Actually, Brother Hao, you already knew they were acting, right?"
