Facing Chen Dong's question, You Tianfu didn't rush to answer. Instead, he turned to look at Lei Haozi and said, "Master Lei, when Zhou Zhengwei came to see Phyllis before, how did they reach a consensus?"
Lei Haozi responded, "Zhou Zhengwei doesn't have much power, but he's been moving between the political powers of various countries for years, making him something of an 'official.' He's also been instrumental in Chinatown's ability to remain stable amidst the Three Kingdoms."
People in officialdom can call the wind and rain with just one word, and can also calm the sea with just one word. Zhou Zhengwei is such a person.
So even though he is not well-known in the city, and even many newcomers don't know of his existence, the old guys in the city all know that his threat level is actually greater than anyone else. Even Phyllis can only be polite and respectful when they meet him.
Zhou Zhengwei came here at the behest of General Ruan Kaiming, because he knew the situation in Chinatown. Although we hooligans are not a big threat, we are not so easy to deal with, so it will still be difficult for Ruan Kaiming to directly occupy Chinatown.
Zhou Zhengwei found Phyllis because he wanted to reduce these unnecessary obstacles to a minimum, based on preserving the entire North City Park, and let him defeat the bosses from all sides first and completely unify Chinatown. In this way, when Ruan Mingkai's troops arrived, they could easily move in.
Although Phyllis also knew that once Ruan Mingkai successfully moved in, Chinatown would no longer be Chinatown. As the military gradually developed, we "locals" would be gradually eliminated sooner or later.
But there was no other way, so he could only choose to accept it and start occupying the city one by one from the west. Use your lives to exchange for the trust of Zhou Zhengwei and Ruan Mingkai!
After listening carefully to every word, You Tianfu nodded slightly: "I have never dealt with Zhou Zhengwei, and I don't know the general situation of Ruan Kaiming's army, so the follow-up plan must be determined after a detailed understanding.
If you all here trust my talent, you can rest assured to leave this matter to me. Within a month, I will definitely come up with the best solution to ensure the safety of Chinatown to the greatest extent possible!"
After he finished speaking, he raised his eyes and scanned everyone one by one, as if asking for their opinions.
Xie Jiannan was the first to laugh out loud. "From the moment everyone started attacking the north side of the city, didn't we already choose to trust you? It's true that the Yangtze River's waves push the waves ahead, each wave higher than the last. For us old bones, perhaps it's time to let the young people make their mark."
The others also laughed. Although no one spoke, everyone's meaning was very clear. They put all the pressure on You Tianfu.
After the party, everyone got up and left, except You Tianfu, who sat alone in the dining room for a long time.
Qin Yuer came over and poured him a glass of water, then handed it to him and said with concern, "Those big guys have been in Chinatown for many years. They have more experience and connections than us. You shouldn't take everything on yourself.
My father's most common saying was, 'People shouldn't fight officials.' Even the most powerful figures have to hold themselves back when facing the authorities. Zhou Zhengwei and Ruan Kaiming are both veterans of the most sophisticated, and one is a high-ranking warlord. Saving Chinatown from them is incredibly difficult..."
You Tianfu took a deep breath, put down his water cup, and suddenly hugged Qin Yuer in his arms: "I know the interests involved, but you saw the situation in the city and the state of the people at the table just now. Chen Dong's container house was blown up, Wang Manxi's foot bath city was reduced to ruins, the North City Park was cleared out, Lei Haozi has no backing, not to mention Xie Jiannan and Qi Haitao, who have more tricks up their sleeves than anyone else.
Now that a powerful enemy is at the doorstep, everyone is united as one, but at the same time, everyone has their own selfish motives. While working together to protect Chinatown from the outside world, they are also laying the foundation for their future development.
If the initiative of this matter is placed in the hands of anyone other than me, no matter whether the final command is correct or not, it will definitely be suspected by others.
It's not easy to unite these people. Once their hearts are divided, they'll completely fall apart. That's why I took on all the responsibilities, shouldering the identity of a 'young man'. No matter how I give orders, I can give these big guys a way out.
Qin Yuer was a little overwhelmed by the sudden intimate gesture. She wanted to break free and leave, but when she found that You Tianfu's tone was very steady, she listened patiently and sat on his lap.
Hugging Qin Yu'er, You Tianfu's eyes flashed with reluctance. After a pause, he continued, "I know who Zhou Zhengwei and Ruan Mingkai are, and I also know how great a disaster Chinatown will soon face. To be honest, I have selfish motives, but they are not for myself, but for you and these brothers!"
Qin Yu'er was stunned, and seemed to realize something: "On us?"
You Tianfu nodded. "Hao Zhengguang and I met in prison. After I got out, he's been by my side, through thick and thin, never once thinking of leaving. You know what happened with Dongzi and Ajie. One lost his beloved sister, the other is an orphan. And Anjing, no matter how tough she looks, is still a girl. It's not easy for her to survive in a chaotic Chinatown.
As for you, I promised her personally before I left that no matter what happens, I will take good care of you even if it costs me my own life.
This incident is no small matter. In fact, we all know that no matter what solution we come up with in the end, our ability alone cannot stop Ruan Mingkai from leading his troops to move in.
