Catch the wind

Jin Heting dares to touch everything, and he is not too much in any aspect, so he is a healthy gentleman with all five poisons.At this moment, he was lazily leaning on a big arhat bed, holding a stick with one hand to pick out the smoke paste, and sending it to the lamp, turning it slowly in circles, burning a long string of cannons.Ye Xueshan was leaning on the opposite side, half lying and half sitting, squinting at him while he was burning the cigarette.

"My brother is really smart." Jin Heting stared at Huo Miao slowly and said, "No matter what kind of business you are doing, you can understand it just by looking at it."

Ye Xueshan smiled lazily: "What kind of enlightenment is nothing more than the strength of my big brother."

Jin Heting narrowed his eyes with a half-smile, as if he was about to fall asleep in the smell of opium smoke: "This just shows that my brother is born blessed. Look at me, Jin, why don't I have a brother who is a teacher to support me?" Woolen cloth?"

Ye Xueshan put his hand into the pocket of his robe, touched it, and said with a smile: "Based on the friendship between you and me, can I still leave you behind when I have something good?" Having said that, he folded a piece of paper Handed the letterhead to the Golden Crane Pavilion.Jin Heting was obviously a little suspicious, put the stick and took the letter paper, opened it to see, but found several numbers written on it.

After a short thought, he raised his eyes to look at Ye Xueshan: "My brother means..."

Ye Xueshan leaned towards him very affectionately, lowered his voice and laughed and said, "Brother Jin, do you really think that my surname Ye is ungrateful and wants to cut off your money by relying on my brother's power?"

Jin Heting immediately shook his head: "No, no, brother, I misunderstood, I absolutely don't mean that."

Under the dim light, Ye Xueshan tilted his head slightly, and smiled meaningfully: "I don't want to ask more about what you mean, but I will explain what I mean first. I was originally the one who followed you to get rich, and I dare not forget that." But everyone has a good intention, and I am no exception. I can't follow your boss Jin forever, and your boss Jin may not have the patience to lead me for the rest of my life; therefore, it will be a matter of time before I set up my own family. That way now , if you want to leave, I will definitely continue to provide protection; if you don’t want to leave, then my smoked soil will be transported to Tianjin, and I will sell it to you at this price. Is it appropriate to buy soil from me, or to transport soil back from Rehe , you are a smart person, you have to settle your own account, I will not say more. "

Jin Heting finished burning the cigarette slowly, and then turned the bong to Ye Xueshan: "Brother, do you want to have a taste? This is Persian, and it tastes quite right."

Ye Xueshan lay down on his side, took a puff while holding the bong, and then waved his hands repeatedly while exhaling the smoke: "I don't like alcohol or tobacco. I can't taste it well. Use it yourself."

Jin Heting retracted his bong, and while puffing out clouds and mist, he talked about the good and bad of the smoke and soil in various places, speaking clearly and logically, like an expert.However, after smoking two puffs, he pushed away the bong and wanted no more.Ye Xueshan saw it in his eyes and sighed in his heart, thinking that those who want to do great things really need to have such a little self-control.

Jin Heting smoked enough opium, and drank a cup of hot tea in peace.This time his body and mind were at ease, he turned sideways to face Ye Xueshan, and began to speak to get to the point.The two talked in whispers for a long time, and finally reached an agreement, both sides were very satisfied, so when they got up, they became more and more friendly to each other, almost like brothers.

After a few days like this, the war in the south intensified, the sea traffic was affected, and the usual Indian smoke suddenly disappeared.Ye Xueshan took this opportunity and made a huge fortune.Money is the guts of a man, and Ye Xueshan became energetic, and while recruiting troops, he ran to Rehe himself, and followed the cart team.At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, when the weather was very hot, he was used to being comfortable on weekdays, but now it was hard to sit in a big mule cart bumping all day long.When he returned home after all the hardships, he took a selfie in the mirror, and felt that he was dark and thin, which was really not very good-looking.Fortunately, he is not the kind of young man who admires himself alone, as long as he can achieve his wish, black spots and thin spots are not a problem.

He not only mastered the way to make money, but also made real money in a steady stream, his hands became more generous than ever, and naturally his expenses became even more astonishing.He loves to play by nature, but because of financial constraints, even when he played, he had ulterior motives and couldn't wantonly have fun.It's all right now, he no longer needs to stare at other people's wallets to make small calculations, and he no longer needs to perfunctory for a small profit.He will be nice to whoever he wants to be with.

That night, he pushed Pai Gow at a friend's house and lost 8000 yuan in one night.The protagonist was a little unsteady, feeling that winning or losing was a bit too much, but Ye Xueshan didn't grow angry and his face didn't change.He firmly believes that friends can be played out, so gambling and drinking must be available. Gambling hurts money and drinking hurts the mind. They are all actions to let people show their true colors. It is impossible to be open and frank.

After the game ended, it was midnight.Everyone went to the restaurant to have a sumptuous supper. Some people saw that Ye Xueshan seemed to be in high spirits, so they joked and said, "Uncle Ye's face is full of red recently, he must have good fortune."

Ye Xueshan was picking up a chopstick of shredded chicken noodles and putting them into his mouth. After hearing this, he swallowed the hot noodles in one gulp, and then replied concisely: "Fortune, let's spread the luck of the fortune boy!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present understood and couldn't help hahaha together.Ye Xueshan also laughed, and pointed forward with the tip of his chopsticks: "I didn't go well tonight, let Lao Li invite another round. I don't believe it, can I really be a money-losing boy?"

Everyone saw that he dared to play again, so naturally they were willing.From then on, they began to talk about the time and place of the next gamble, and there were different opinions, and the chaos continued for a long time.After finally finishing the long supper, the master prepared some high-quality opium, so the situation could not be resolved until dawn.

Ye Xueshan was not afraid of staying up late at first, but after losing a few pounds, his body seemed to be in short supply, not as strong as before.After getting out of the gate and getting into the car, he raised his hand to touch his face, and felt his palm was hot and his cheek was cold.He is young and never tired, but he understands that this is a symptom of his exhaustion.

He closed his eyes and leaned back, while raising his hand to press the cold window glass.The palms were hot and uncomfortable, reminding him suddenly of Gu Xiongfei - Gu Xiongfei loved to hold his hand, which also made him uncomfortable.

Of course, there are also moments of happiness, but they are not worth mentioning. They are all just a dream in the dark.

As soon as Ye Xueshan entered the house, the servant who got up early came up to greet him, and carefully said: "Young Master, a Miss Chen called you twice last night, she sounded very unhappy, and she was in a hurry to find you .”

Ye Xueshan knew that it was Chen Meiqing, so she didn't stop walking, and went upstairs to rest without thinking.Chen Meiqing's beauty is getting worse day by day, Ye Xueshan is too lazy to serve her anymore.Anyway, he has a lot of girlfriends, and the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, so there is always no shortage of people around him.

Lying on the bed like a dead body, he fell asleep in a mess. For a while, he dreamed that he was pushing Pai Gow, and for a while, he dreamed that he was dancing. He was more tired when he fell asleep than when he was awake.At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, he really woke up, sat up with disheveled hair, and stayed in a daze for another half an hour like a fool.Just when he was stunned, the telephone installed on the wall of the corridor suddenly rang. The servant answered the phone and promised a few words, then knocked on the door and summoned him.

He stretched his legs out of the bed stupidly, staggered out, picked up the microphone, and opened his mouth to ask, but it turned out that the big guy under him had just arrived in Tianjin and wanted him to reimburse him.

Ye Xueshan had suffered enough from having no money, so as soon as he heard that it was a serious matter in his family's business, he immediately cheered up, washed and changed his clothes, not allowing himself to be lazy.He had just cleaned himself up when the big boys arrived.

The guy named Lin is in his 30s this year. He is neither old nor young.Ye Xueshan only remembered that it was his mother who resigned him, for what reason, no one knew, maybe it was because he was too bad at learning?

The past, no one wants to mention it again.In short, this buddy Lin was in his thirties, and he didn't make any big names. He met Ye Xueshan on the street by chance that day, and the two of them talked very cordially, so Ye Xueshan recruited him as his subordinate.And after this person got the errand, it was as if he was reborn, and he began to know how to be strong, and he worked tirelessly and honestly.As for business matters, he also talked one and one, and never complimented Ye Xueshan indiscriminately; Ye Xueshan sometimes felt that he was more like his big brother, even if he wasn't like a big brother, he was still like a neighbor of the family.

Holding a cup of boiling hot coffee in both hands, Ye Xueshan was still confused, but on the surface he was quite energetic: "Zisen, okay, I came back soon this time."

Lin Zisen was wearing a green cloth trousers jacket. He was a respectable man with a long face that was always clean-shaven. Because of his height, he was slightly hunchbacked.Other people's hunchback is obviously submissive, but his hunchback has another meaning, as if he is ready to go, and he is walking fast.Logically speaking, his appearance is not ugly, and he is more than enough to be a buddy, but maybe he has been on the streets for a long time, and for some reason, he looks like a hooligan, which makes people a little scared when they see him.

"Young master, the journey went smoothly, with no wind or rain. As soon as the goods entered Tianjin, they were taken away by Mr. Jin's people. We had no responsibility, so we returned empty-handed."

Ye Xueshan nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and said, "Zisen, don't rush away, stay for breakfast."

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the Ye family's breakfast was served. It was chicken soup wontons and freshly baked sugar biscuits. It was really the content of breakfast.Ye Xueshan sat at the head, inspecting the biscuits in the basket for a long time, finally picked out the most perfect one, put it in his mouth and took a big bite.

Lin Zisen didn't see him either, he ate and drank sleepily.After he was full, he grabbed the white napkin, wiped the sweat all over his face, and said to Ye Xueshan, "Master, the soldiers over there want to do some business with us."

Ye Xueshan ate up all the candy in the middle of the biscuits, and was hesitating about the half-round pancake left behind, not knowing whether to eat or not: "What business?"

Lin Zisen replied, "Sell guns."

Ye Xueshan was taken aback for a moment: "Selling arms?"

Lin Zisen nodded, and said again: "Of course we don't have any worries if it's someone else's soldier; but this is Master Beijing's subordinate, then... I don't dare to make decisions."

Ye Xueshan pinched the edge of the cake and asked thoughtfully: "Even if we bought the gun, who can we sell it to when we get back?"

Lin Zisen thought about it and replied: "Mr. Jin can definitely take it. If Mr. Jin doesn't want it, we can keep it for ourselves."

Ye Xueshan threw away the cake and made a decision: "Then buy it! Even if you can't sell it, it's good for you to keep it for self-defense."
