207, Unintentionally inserting the willows among the road

With Liu Peifeng's strength, of course, it is impossible to directly participate in the contract bidding for municipal projects. The project was subcontracted by a large engineering company that won the bid. The exhibition hall was very large, and the project payment was five million. At the beginning, Liu Peifeng needed to advance it himself. Half the project payment was paid halfway, and the other half of the project payment was settled after the project was completed and the other half of the project payment was settled after the completion and acceptance. This agreement was very irregular, but Liu Peifeng still took over the work because some people wanted to take over it, and this was the condition for taking the project.

Of course, Liu Peifeng didn't have that much money, so he suppressed all his capital and borrowed a lot. As a result, he encountered trouble when he paid the first project payment halfway through the project. The contractor said that the contractor above could not get the project payment, and the contractor above said that the contractor above had not got the project payment. In the end, Liu Peifeng begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother and only paid 30% of the project payment. Someone told him how could he be denied such a project? He would definitely get the money after he sued his work. The money was indeed received, and this money was delayed for four years. At that time, he had already gone bankrupt and became the boss of the Black Dragon Gang. This is a later story.

After finishing the work, the project payment was not settled on time, and everyone was delayed, and there was no place to sue. Later, someone told him that small companies like him were asking for death. If they did not have enough strong background to get the project payment in time, and a strong large company could do it, he could not afford it. He did not get the money, but the workers who worked for him and the material suppliers required wages and material payments. Liu Peifeng had no choice but to owe him and sold his house and car. When his parents returned to his hometown, he could not take care of him, and his wife ran away.

But Liu Peifeng is still a seven-foot man. He has to eat and dress and respect his parents. He is penniless and becomes a taxi driver under the introduction of an acquaintance. He doesn't even have to buy a car for himself. He takes out the daily gas money and the money given to the owner, and the monthly income is less than 2,000 yuan is only enough to live. As time goes by, he starts to think about it. He makes too little money by working in Wuyou City. He can earn more money by traveling to Linxian at night. There is a special taxi gathering place in the city who travels to Linxian for a small distance, and Liu Peifeng is also working there.

It took tens of kilometers of roads in Lin County, and it was only enough to send the passengers back in the free time. What I earned was the money for returning passengers. There was also a special return bus stop in Lin County. Liu Peifeng pulled the guests from Wuyou, then waited for passengers there, and then pulled the passengers back to Wuyou city. However, returning passengers were violated by regulations because taxis cannot be operated across regions, and local drivers did not do it. If they caught it, they would be fined. Usually, when the traffic management department cleaned up and rectified, there were rumors. Liu Peifeng heard that he could avoid it in time.

However, in an intensified crackdown on cross-regional operations, Liu Peifeng did not get news and did not avoid it. This time the punishment was very strong, and the fine was only 2,000 yuan. If he was really fined, he would probably not even have enough food this month. That was one evening, and Liu Peifeng pulled a young man in Lin County to return to Wuyou. As soon as he walked out of the suburbs, the paging rang. A familiar driver notified him: "Tonight, the dog will be 2,000 yuan."

When Liu Peifeng saw the hop, he quickly said to the man sitting in the back row: "Brother, I'm sorry, you can change your car. Today I will catch the return car and pick up the passengers. If you catch it, you will be fined 2,000 yuan. I can't pull you."

The passenger looked at Liu Peifeng and said, "Oh? That's wrong. I didn't look at the license plate carefully when I got on the bus, but there are no cars nearby? If I have an urgent matter, I want to go back to Wuyou, so just pull me back. It will not be good for you to go back to the empty car."

While talking, a police car chased after him and left, blocked Liu Peifeng's car on the side of the road. The traffic got off with a ticket, knocked on the car window and saluted, and then shouted loudly: "You are Wu Youlai's return car. Haven't you heard of the notice of cleaning up? Get off the car, please show your driver's license and operation license."

Liu Peifeng shouted that he was unlucky and had to get off the car. Unexpectedly, the young man got out of the car, and before he could speak, he said to the police: "Comrade Police, what's going on? This is the car I booked. I came from Wuyou today. I have to hurry back to do something." Liu Peifeng looked back and saw that the meter in the car had been closed by the young man.

The passenger's words saved Liu Peifeng. Chartering a car to and from, it is not a violation of the regulations. The young man was still in a hurry to rush, so the police had to let Liu Peifeng pass through without a fine. After Liu Peifeng got on the bus, he thanked him repeatedly. The young man smiled and said, "Actually, it's me wrong. If I listen to you, there will be no trouble getting off the bus. It's not your fault, and you don't have to thank me."

On the way, Liu Peifeng started chatting with the passengers, and as soon as he opened the conversation, he said too much. Seeing that the passenger was in his thirties, his temples were slightly gray, his face was gentle and calm, and his tone and eyes had a very comfortable and trusting appeal. After talking, Liu Peifeng began to complain, first, he talked about how hard the job was for the driver of the shift. He talked little by little about his previous experience, how he fell from a company boss to a friend.

The passenger was also very moved, and he talked a few times from time to time, and complained to Liu Peifeng. Later, he suddenly asked: "Master, you just received a paging and asked me to get off the bus. What's going on with paging?"

Liu Peifeng took out the paging and handed it to the passenger: "A friend is also a taxi. His brother-in-law works in the traffic police brigade. If there is anything, he can get the news. I often notify me. It's too late to receive the news today."

The passenger played with the page and said, "This is the prototype of the underworld."

Liu Peifeng didn't understand: "Sir, what were you saying? Why are you gangsters again?"

The passenger smiled: "Now young people talk about the underworld, thinking that it is fighting and killing in gangster movies, which is just a superficial one. The reason why the underworld is called society is a system that grows in the gaps of the state machine in the net of a society, because the space for rent-seeking for interests is also a kind of filling of the gaps that deteriorate."

Liu Peifeng: "I think you look like a knowledgeable person, but I don't understand this."

Passenger: "Take this paging as an example. A traffic policeman informed his brother-in-law and then his brother-in-law sent you a paging. It seemed to be an omission with poor internal discipline. If the existence of such omission is normal and no one consciously fills it, but deliberately amplifies it because of the existence of interests. What do you think will be the result?"

Liu Peifeng was not stupid, so he understood after thinking about it: "What do you mean is that if you do such a organized thing?"

Passenger: "Yes, what will happen if a driver like you, if he has a good brain and has the ability to organize all drivers to accept information dispatch uniformly?"

Liu Peifeng: "This is just a good relationship, so the scale of doing things is huge. Who dares?"

Passenger: "If there are enough benefits, and punishment and supervision are not kept up, some people dare to do so. For example, if someone collects money, each driver pays a fixed amount per month. If there are enough people, I think it's enough for each person to spend a few dozen yuan. This money is used to buy news and spread the news."

Liu Peifeng: "This is a good idea."

The passenger snorted: "What a good idea? This is the prototype of the underworld that I mean! ... If we start with this and join forces with all the drivers on these two routes, the scale will be even larger."

Liu Peifeng: "Two lines?"

Passenger: "Don't forget that when you return from Wuyou, taxi drivers from near the county may also return from Wuyou. Both lines do not comply with the regulations. If someone organizes and coordinates uniformly, there are several fixed places to wait for the traffic police to avoid investigations and prosecution, a fixed passenger flow will be formed in the short time, which is equivalent to controlling the rental market between Wuyou and the suburbs. Moreover, there will be fewer conflicts within the drivers of the two places, and there will be fewer complaints from each other."

Liu Peifeng: "What you said is, but no one did that."

The passenger sighed: "If the market is like this and there are problems with the government management, sooner or later someone will do this, it is nothing more than Zhang Sangan or Li Sigan."

Liu Peifeng: "Sir, according to your idea, this business can be bigger... If you can control and organize this batch of operating vehicles, then the small restaurants along the route where car washing, repairing, refueling, and even drivers can rest, and there are still many businesses to do."

The passenger smiled: "You were just a businessman, right? You can really learn from it. You don't have to think about the current market situation of the gas station. Other businesses can be controlled... This market has developed to a certain scale, and some people will follow the trend when they see the interests. Everyone is not in line with the regulations. Competition can only be solved secretly. The fighting that you see in the movie will appear, and on this basis, the so-called gang gang will be formed."

Liu Peifeng: "Is the legendary boss?" The reason for this question is that it was the period when the gangster forces of Uyou were most rampant. In this city with rapid development of the coastal economy, smuggling, prostitution, drugs and other phenomena began to emerge, forming gang forces of all sizes, and fighting and fighting occurred frequently.

Liu Peifeng regretted this as soon as he said this. If the other party was really a gangster, such a question might cause trouble. However, the passenger smiled and said, "Of course I am not. I deeply hate this. Today I am just sighing, because I know that something is growing under my feet, but I cannot send a flood like God to exterminate everything. What we should do is work together to eventually eliminate all this. But now, as long as the managers decided by people cannot solve the problem of supervision and control, and there is soil for rent-seeking, it will still happen."

Having said that, I had already passed through Wuyou City to Qixianling, and the gentleman got off at the place. The passenger had to pay, but Liu Peifeng refused to accept it. The passenger said thank you without any force.

The speaker is unintentional and the listener is intentional. Liu Peifeng did what the gentleman predicted, and it took only half a year. After half a year, Liu Peifeng basically controlled the small long-distance taxi market between Wuyou and the neighboring counties, opened three auto repair factories, and established a "good cooperative relationship" with insiders of the traffic management department. He took out a loan to buy a new house, took his parents from his hometown, and his wife came back and remarried him - the same one.

The gang fight that the gentleman predicted had already happened. Some people saw that Liu Peifeng controlled the market and wanted to intervene. There were many fights in secret. Liu Peifeng also had his own power. In addition to the strong relationship between the upper class, his number one general was Tie Lusheng nicknamed Tie King Kong. Tie Lusheng was originally a repairman in an auto repair shop. He practiced hard kung fu for several years since he was a child. Not only was he a good fighter, but he was also stubborn. If he recognized Liu Peifeng as the boss, he would firmly protect the interests of Liu and his brothers. Tie King Kong, one of the eight great kings, was the first to follow Liu Peifeng, but he was not very familiar with Feng Junzi, so he did not recognize Mr. Feng, who was dressed as a priest at that farce wedding.

Liu Peifeng always wanted to see the passenger again, but he actually saw him. Once, he drove home after dinner and saw a person who looked familiar on the roadside. He turned out to be a fortune teller who set up a stall with the words "Immortal's Guide to the Way". He quickly stopped the car and went forward and said, "Sir, do you still know me?"

The fortune teller looked up at him and said, "It's you? Why did you change the car?" Liu Peifeng no longer drove for a taxi in person, but drove a very high-end second-hand car.

Liu Peifeng: "So you still remember me. I have always wanted to come to you again. Please give me some advice. I didn't expect that the gentleman is in this industry. It's really a scheming!"

Fortune teller: "God's calculation? You praised it before you even calculated it. Why did I just make it?"

Liu Peifeng: "Do you still remember what you said half a year ago? I did all the things you said."

The fortune teller looked at him and thought for a while and said, "You are Liu Peifeng, right? I have heard of your name recently, but I really didn't expect you to be the driver who runs a replacement. I didn't know if it helped you or hurt you after I said something unintentional."

Liu Peifeng: "Mr. I have helped me a lot, how can I say that I can harm me? I have learned what I know when I am today."

Fortune teller: "Don't thank me. You are really a talented person. You did it yourself. I don't know how to say hello to you. Since I'm setting up a fortune teller here, you can just say a fortune when you come. What do you want to do?"

Liu Peifeng: "I want to ask about the future."

The fortune teller threw a newspaper to him, and Liu Peifeng sat down with his butt. The two started chatting on the side of the road. Liu Peifeng now had an idea, which was to set up his own taxi company, but he didn't know whether it would be successful. The fortune teller laughed: "You are doing this business now, and the drivers on this line will buy your account, but if you control it with a formal company, it will not only not be cleaned, but will also become the target of public criticism. Whitening is not washed like this. You are not in this industry, so why not do your old business?"

Liu Peifeng's old business was construction and decoration. At that time, the decoration market was very chaotic, and it was not the engineering but people. Because the companies were all fixed, the decoration workers hired randomly invited migrant workers in the labor market. They worked for one project and hired a ticket to hire a ticket. After they had done the work, they found people when they found new work. These people also formed cliques, some were small decoration teams formed according to different types of work, some were small gangs formed to fight for life, and some were groups formed to get wages, and frictions occurred from time to time. Generally, decoration companies knew several fixed small gang leaders, and if they had work, they found these people to contact them for a fixed connection. Over time, they formed some prototypes of gangs.

The fortune teller suggested that Liu Peifeng go to his old business and told him that his main goal was to gather popularity because he already had the experience and ability to build gangs and was familiar with the decoration market. Liu Peifeng later really intervened in this market in the form of a gang. The Black Dragon Gang was formed during this period. He did not establish the largest decoration company in Wuyou, but established the most influential gang forces at the bottom of the market. In the most fashionable terms, it was to integrate human resources. Of course, it was not without benefits. The gang also began to trade decoration materials distribution.

The formal formation of the Black Dragon Gang began with the conversation between fortune teller and Liu Peifeng. At this time, Liu Peifeng met Situ Jiu, who was a carpenter, studied and learned a few kung fu in the countryside. Situ Jiu led a group of skilled fellow villagers to Wuyoulai to explore, and formed a gang for the purpose of taking care of each other, protecting each other and asking for wages. Later, he was subdued by Liu Peifeng, and Situ Jiu also became one of the eight kings of the Black Dragon Gang. It was during that street conversation that the fortune teller told Liu Peifeng his name, his name was Feng Junzi.

Afterwards, there was a joke. Feng Junzi's home decoration did not hire a decoration company, but instead drew the drawings he drew himself. He was introduced by an acquaintance to invite a decoration team to decorate. When the paint was finally painted, the painter recommended a brand to him. Feng Junzi bought it from the store. However, not long after the completion, a painter came to do after-sales service survey and asked how the quality was. Feng Junzi laughed at the time and immediately called Liu Peifeng, and said on the phone: "Your subordinate is very smart. Has the rebates been received on my head?"

What's going on? Feng Junzi did not leave his home address and home phone number when he bought the paint. The painter did not accompany him to buy it and did not know where he bought it. How could a dealer come to the door for after-sales service investigation? There is only one possibility. After the painter decorated his home, he told the dealer of the brand of paint that he recommended this product. The dealer did not come to the door for after-sales service investigation, but to make product recommendation and sales confirmation, so that the painter's benefit fee would be paid.

This was a very hidden and organized commercial profit method for Wuyou's decoration industry at that time. Generally, small companies or families employed these decoration workers could not find it or control it. It was Liu Peifeng who was the first to "promote" in the entire industry. Liu Peifeng was also happy when he heard it on the phone and said with a smile: "Why don't Mr. Feng say hello to me when he decorates?"

Feng Junzi said, "Old Liu, don't be happy, I'm looking for you if I have something to do." This is the first time Feng Junzi took the initiative to find Liu Peifeng, but what he wanted to talk about was not about decoration, but about Wuyou's motor vehicle management.

At that time, Liu Peifeng's Black Dragon Gang had already become very powerful. He wanted money and people. He used to control the two-way taxi business of returning taxis in Wuyou and the near-county counties, which was considered a small business. However, now the Wuyou taxi market is becoming more and more chaotic. Some people in the traffic management department used to just collect the benefits of people like Liu Peifeng, but now they have developed to privately collude to raise a large number of black cars. This batch of black cars with a license plate does not need to pay taxi members and operating expenses, but only needs to pay the monthly payment to those who are in the lead. This is a huge black market. With Liu Peifeng's power, you can also get involved in it.

This is what Feng Junzi talked about to Liu Peifeng. He asked: "Do you want to see your friends and relatives, but you can't find the vehicle that caused the accident after the car accident?"

Liu Peifeng thought about it and said he was unwilling. Feng Junzi said again: "Okay, I beg you to do something. With your energy today, the time should be ripe."

Feng Junzi asked Liu Peifeng to do first to ask him to withdraw from the rental operation market, and secondly, he asked him to collect evidence and materials on the behavior of the traffic management department. Regarding the increasingly chaotic black car market in recent years, Liu Peifeng's power can get what Feng Junzi wants. Half a year later, an official from the Traffic Management Bureau broke out, and for some reason almost all the relevant personnel of the three traffic management departments of Wuyou were involved. This black market was almost wiped out and could not restore the original chaotic situation for a long time. Under the pressure of citizens and public opinion, this chaos of cleaning up and rectifying finally came to light. Although it was not completely clean, it completely restrained and improved a lot.

Of course, this storm is very complicated, and Liu Peifeng didn't know what it had to do with Feng Junzi. An officer named Yan Beiyu offended many people in the internal system in this incident, and later lost his position for some reason. Feng Junzi guided Liu Peifeng to come to invite this person, and he later became Yan Jingang, one of the Eight Great Vajras.
