Iron Bull Legend

Tie Niu spoke slowly and softly about the killing spree in Las Vegas, as if it happened yesterday. Thinking about it, people like Jack at that time were really stupid, crying and shouting for him to be given bullets, fearing that they would not see tomorrow's sun after delivering them.

"Young Master, are you Crazy Sun's apprentice? He is the best gambler in our organization. Over the years, only the old master has been able to control him. No one else can even think about it."

"Haha, I pulled a lot of the old man's beard. Crazy Sun? I haven't even asked him his name. I don't know where he is these years. Sigh, I'm really derelict in my duty. I inherited his legacy but haven't done anything for him."

"Haha...hahaha..." As soon as Tie Niu finished speaking, there were sounds of happy laughter all around. Everyone was also pulled the old man's beard by Tie Niu's words, and felt that the young master must have been a naughty little rascal.

"He wanders around everywhere, and no one knows where he is now. As he gets older, he becomes more playful. Every once in a while, there are reports of fun things happening in the places he has been to, and many people have been fooled by him. He is just an old naughty boy."

"Really? Where was the last place he appeared?" Tie Niu couldn't help but think of old man Sun's wrinkled face and the frowns on his brows that had been there for years and couldn't be resolved.

Tie Niu also wanted to bring Grandpa Sun back to Prince Gong's Mansion in the capital. After all, there was a professional master of medicine like Grandpa Guo, and his own medicine that could prolong life.

"You've asked the right person. Grandpa Sun might be in Dieluo Country. There was a rumor that an old immortal told fortunes for the local high priest, and the high priest died on the spot. This story has been spread like a miracle, and I don't know if it's true."

"Hurry up and contact the old man, and ask him to return to Beijing. I will take care of him in his old age." Tie Niu really was thinking about the old man Sun who looked so haggard. He wanted to improve the old man's health and let him live a few more years.

"Okay, young master, but the old man may not listen. Now the old man is having fun and living a fairy-like life every day. How can a fairy-like life withstand loneliness?"

"That's true, but tell the old man to go back and stay with Grandpa Bai for a few days before going out. We all miss him. Go back and see him before going out to play." Tie Niu's words sounded like a parent calling a child who was playing outside and telling him to eat before playing again.

"Hahaha... Young master, only you dare to say that. How could we dare? However, we can deliver a message. I'm just afraid that when the old man gets angry, he won't listen to anyone. But let's try it anyway." Zhang Liang had also learned from Crazy Sun for a few days and had made some achievements.

"Then let's arrange it this way. Let me check the time... Forget it, once you enter the official residence, it's like entering a deep sea. My time now no longer belongs to me. I really have no control over myself." Tie Niu let out a long sigh. As long as you enter this gate of the official residence, even the country will be restricted.

Therefore, Tie Niu could only smile bitterly now. If he could still walk away as he pleased like a few years ago, he would really miss those free days. Finally, he understood why Crazy Sun wandered around everywhere, like a child who didn't want to be restricted at all.

But he can't do that. He has already set up such a big stall in Yangcheng and made so many plans. If a new ruler comes, no one knows what will happen to all his plans.

Often when a local ruler steps down or is promoted, his successor will not allow his brilliance or talent to be hidden within the framework of his predecessor and try to complete the unfinished work of his predecessor, as that would make it impossible to highlight his strength.

Even if you can do it according to the arrangement, it will be distorted. After all, everyone has his own ideas and ambitions. If he doesn't stand out, how can his superiors see his abilities? These are all very natural things.

Thinking about the past year, from the town mayor to the acting mayor, I have broken the work arrangements of my predecessors and have been carrying out my own governing philosophy and policies. I have been following the pace of previous rulers.

Only Mayor Huang and Secretary Chen Xiao of Ping'an Town are still continuing their own governing measures. However, they also have their own ideas on some things, and only the shadows of the past are created by themselves.

The same is true for some things in Huangmei Town. No matter what I do, I am the only one in power. If I were not in Yangcheng now or had gone to the province, Mayor Su of Huangmei Town and the mayor of Yangcheng City would also change their way of governing like everyone else.

Sometimes, reality really is like that, and it will change the original things completely.

Tie Niu let out a long sigh with a look of helplessness on his face. Zhang Liang caught the change in this instant. He looked at Tie Niu's young master and had some thoughts in his mind.

"Young Master, you said that we are not short of money now, so why do you have to tie yourself to the position of mayor of Yangcheng? Wouldn't it be nice to travel around the world and make money? Why do you have to work so hard to earn that little money?" Zhang Liang still expressed his thoughts.

"You don't know the oath I swore on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang. So many of our brothers left their bodies and lives on foreign soil. Can I leave the people behind for a little freedom and money?"

"If we earn more money, donate more back home, and start more businesses, wouldn't that help everyone live a good life? Wouldn't that still be working for the country and the people? It's just that the way we do things has to be a little more flexible."

"You can't say that. Let me tell you something that happened to me. I met a young man in Yangcheng named Luo Cheng. His mother was beaten to death by a bully in the village, and his father and sister were crippled by the bully. In a rage, he killed the bully's entire family, leaving only children and women. If I hadn't been an official, his fate would have been death, and he would have been shot to death according to the law. However, I am the only one here who can save his life and help his family leave this sad place..."

After Tie Niu finished telling this story, no one laughed but remained silent. Everyone had finished their meal, but the atmosphere suddenly became dull.

"To be honest, I used to be a doctor. The reason why I gave up medicine and became a government manager was related to what I encountered and heard in the southern border. If you were on the battlefield, you would not have experienced the cruelty of the battlefield. My brothers and sisters were only 18 or 19 years old at the time. In order to protect the sovereignty of the motherland and the integrity of the territory, they risked their lives and rushed forward on the battlefield full of gunfire. Can you understand my feelings and thoughts at the time? I'm not being hypocritical. If you can really come back alive and well, you will have the same idea as me."

"Young Master, I haven't experienced the baptism of war in southern Xinjiang that you mentioned, but I am also a Chinese, and I have the same feelings as you. Over the years, we brothers have been subjected to countless cold stares and countless ridicules abroad. We understand this feeling. Even though we have never served in the army or been on the battlefield, we also have a patriotic sentiment like you."

"Well, that's why I chose this profession, to offer more suggestions for the country's development, to do more for the poor people, so that everyone can live a better life and have enough food to eat. You may not know that in our country there are still many places where folks cannot get enough food and live below the poverty line. I..." Tie Niu couldn't go on.

"I understand, young master. I will definitely lead everyone to work hard. Even if it means exhausting all my strength, I will return to serve my homeland and become a part of the motherland's construction one day in the future."

"Zhang Liang, and everyone else, I thank you on behalf of the motherland. However, you have your value only because you belong to a special industry. If you do these well, for the future construction of the country, you will definitely have your own position, a position where you can contribute ideas and work hard for the country."

"Young Master, we will work hard for our country and our people." Everyone spoke out and shouted together.

As soon as the market opened in the afternoon, Tie Niu felt that the situation had eased a lot. He found some clues from every transaction order. They were no longer a scramble for shares, but a slow absorption.

"Sister, what's going on?" Tie Niu asked He Meir who was also watching the market next to him. He also wanted a professional financial practitioner to explain it to him.

"Haha, this is not the behavior of those hot money. Look at the Toyota and Sakata Groups, they are basically not taking any action. The Sakata Group probably ran out of funds this morning, and the Toyota Group doesn't want to confront us so directly. They are preparing for a sneak attack."

"What, they want to launch a sneak attack? Is this possible?"

"What's impossible? What good will come of confronting us directly? What if a sneak attack succeeds? Wouldn't it be able to reverse their decline and give investors an explanation? Now, you can see it by looking at the stock reviews."

"Okay, let me take a look. Tie Niu pulled up the stockholders' comment area and saw a dense stream of scolding and questioning, each one more intense than the other, as if all the mistakes in their investments were caused by the consortium and the losses were also caused by the consortium.

"Haha, these are the common people. When they make money, do they ever give it to the companies? When they eat meat, do they ever share it with the companies? These people, and their hearts, are really hard to understand."

"Yes, this is the difference between investors and business owners. They start cursing when they lose money, but they are very happy when they make money and go home happily to celebrate the New Year. When is your company going to go public?" He Meir suddenly changed the subject.

"We are not short of money even if we don't go public. We have made a lot of money just by relying on a software. My hands are cramped from counting the money, so why think about useless things? Let me tell you, if we go public, we must distribute the shares. Even if we sell them, we have to give them away. Now my Tianzhijiao subsidiary has only two shareholders, one is me and the other is the current manager Laura. His shares only have the right to dividends, even if he wants to sell them first. So, my company will not have any problems."

"You are not short of money, so you say that. Those companies that are short of money and have potential and development are in trouble. For the development of their companies, they have to sell part of their shares to others at a low price. In that case, they can only watch their own companies being sold and the profits being given to others."

"Sister, this is inevitable. If you want to revitalize the company, expand it, or expand its scale, you have to pay a price. It's still a good thing in the early stages, but one day in the future, capital may make a strong acquisition offer through the shares of listed companies. Just imagine how it would feel if the child you raised with your own hands suddenly became someone else's golden goose that laid golden eggs."

"How could that happen? I have never experienced this before."

"Sister, just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean it won't happen again. The Financial Act clearly stipulates that if an institution or individual holds a certain percentage of the circulating shares, they must make a tender offer for the company. This is already a legal regulation in the financial industry. Even if you don't want to acquire the company, you can't do it. For companies, you can't do it even if you don't want to be acquired. This is the rule. Otherwise, you will be fined heavily by the regulatory authorities."

"Is there any reason for this? Isn't this just a random apportionment?"
