Seeing everyone's expressions, Brother Long nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright! Since everyone thinks so highly of me, Long San, then from now on, as long as I become successful, everyone here will be considered a founding member and contributor! We'll be rich and powerful!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was extremely excited. They had heard about some of Brother Long's plans before, but Brother Long had never brought them up openly. They wanted to contribute but had no opportunity. Now that Brother Long had brought it up, they were very excited.
"Brother Long! Tell me! What is it? No matter what, we brothers will make sure you get it done perfectly!"
"Brother Long, is our new factory about to open? We brothers have been looking forward to working in Brother Long's factory for a long time!"
"Yeah! Instead of working for those bastards in the city, we'd better save our strength for our own people!"
"..."
The cacophony of voices urging him to act filled Brother Long with confidence in clearing away the obstacles along the way.
"Alright! Since everyone thinks so highly of me, Long San, I'll lay my cards on the table! I've been preparing for this meat processing plant for a long time, but it hasn't been approved until recently. I've also chosen the site! However, there are quite a few forces along the way that have grudges against us, and this time we're transporting meat, so I don't need to elaborate on the dangers involved! It's going to be difficult, but once we succeed, making a fortune will be a breeze!"
Brother Long revealed his entire plan, and the rest of the people stared at him wide-eyed, their eyes filled with anticipation and fervor, wishing they could rush up and clear away all the obstacles along the way right now.
After all, with their own meat processing plant, their meat-eating problem will definitely be solved in the future. As for those dark, unchanging protein chunks they eat every day, they're already tired of them!
"Brother Long! Don't worry! Leave this to us! We'll definitely clear all the obstacles in your path!"
"Brother Long, just tell us when we're going to take them down? We've been waiting impatiently for ages!"
"Brother Long! Putting everything else aside, when it comes to fighting, I, Big Guy, have never been afraid of anyone! So what if they're those bastards from District Nine? Give me a hundred men! I'll take care of them! I guarantee they'll be completely submissive!"
"..."
Brother Long looked at these men, each exuding an imposing aura, but felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
He had been working in District 8 for over a year, and the number of people he could actually use was about the same. Although he valued these brothers who had gone through thick and thin with him, they were simply not capable enough to handle any real tasks. What he lacked now was a strategist; fighting and killing were child's play now.
"Sigh! Forget it! Let me think about the timing first. District Nine is a bit too troublesome, I'll deal with it last!"
Everyone looked embarrassed at Brother Long's expression. The tall man wanted to say something, but was pulled back by the person next to him and given a wink, so he could only swallow his words.
"The first one to deal with is District 55! You should all know the boss of this district! He's ruthless in his methods! But he's still negotiable. This time, a few of you go and scout ahead! See what his attitude is!"
Then, Brother Long gave some instructions to everyone, and then everyone left his office one after another.
Watching everyone leave, Brother Long sighed with relief: "I hope they can all grow up! None of them seem capable of shouldering great responsibilities! Will I have to do everything by myself from now on?"
Thinking about this, Brother Long became somewhat dejected and sat in his chair, smoking incessantly.
The workday ended quickly. Lu Yuan was still managing to hire three trucks all by himself, but he still had free time to chat and joke with the others.
Truck driver Chen seemed a bit busy today. On a normal day, he would have asked Lu Yuan for cigarettes and chatted for a while after finishing his work, but today he had just finished loading the truck and was about to drive away.
Seeing the other person's unusual behavior, Lu Yuan stepped forward and patted the car door.
"Old Chen, aren't you coming down for a smoke today?"
The other person was sweating profusely from their work. When they saw Lu Yuan approaching, they shook their head and smiled wryly: "Sigh! To be honest, I've been quite busy today! I'll be busy for the next few days!"
"Oh? You're still busy? Really? You're not going to see some other woman behind your sister-in-law's back, are you?"
"Holy crap! What are you saying?! Do you think I, Old Chen, am that kind of person?! I'm genuinely busy!"
Old Chen quickly shook his head and explained, "Things haven't been peaceful outside these past few days. It seems Brother Long is going to cause trouble for District 55! I'll be passing through District 55 on my way, so I have to hurry and get things done, otherwise it'll be a real problem if the goods get lost!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately understood that Brother Long definitely wanted to use his own people!
"Brother Long is planning to go straight to District 55 and start a fight?" Lu Yuan asked, feigning curiosity.
Driver Chen glanced around at the people, then whispered in Lu Yuan's ear, "You don't know, Brother Long owns a factory! It's a meat processing plant! He has enemies everywhere along the way, so he has to find a way to subdue these people. As for whether he'll start a fight, I don't know. Anyway, the situation is tense lately, so you guys should be careful!"
Lu Yuan smiled knowingly, then tossed a cigarette to the other man: "Alright! Thanks, Brother Chen! Come chat with me when you're done! I'm so bored all by myself!"
"Damn it! You'll get beaten up if you say that! Let's go!"
