Chapter 20 #A Side 1

The groom has now developed the habit of being afraid when he sees Yan Wu, because Yan Wu has become more and more patient, peaceful, and has a much better temper.It turned out that Yan Wu was sitting at the bar, and he ignored all the colleagues who came to strike up a conversation, and seldom responded to those who came to strike up a conversation.His temper is really good now, two days ago an arms dealer came to strike up a conversation with Yan Wu, the groom clearly heard that person describe Yan Wu with words such as "pretty" and "sao", and the groom was flirting with the people next to him Jiu, when he heard these words, he poked his head up to look at Yan Wu, paid attention to the scene, and settled the accounts after finishing the fight.Yan Wu snorted when he finished speaking, squinted his eyes and took a sip of his wine and said, "Say it again." The man looked at him, didn't dare to repeat it in the end, drank the wine in front of him in one gulp, and left.The groom was really startled, and carefully moved to his side, looking very worried: "What's wrong with you? You're so talkative all of a sudden?"

Yan Wu shrugged: "As you get older, you must learn to get along with the world calmly."

The bridegroom couldn't bear this sudden stream of consciousness, stared at him like a ghost, and slowly moved away.Yan Wu leaned over and looked inside the bar, wondering why the groom could drift and walk, did he step on a skateboard?

Yan Wu, who was drinking, was taken aback by the groom who suddenly came over.

"I see." The groom looked suddenly enlightened.

"what?"

"Are you in a relationship?"

The wine glass held by Yan Wu paused for a moment before continuing to drink: "No."

The groom expressed disbelief: "Pretend to me? You weren't weaned when I wrote the Love Bible."

Yan Wu didn't know how to discuss this topic: "Then, it should be counted."

The groom smiled happily: "I like watching people fall in love the most. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I provide emotional counseling 24 hours a day."

Yan Wu smiled and nodded, but didn't answer.

"By the way, do you have anything to do tomorrow night? The bartender here is gone, and there is a shortage of manpower. Are you free to help?" The groom slapped Yan Wu.

"Tomorrow night, I have something to do tomorrow night, can you do it the day after tomorrow?"

The groom has an exaggerated expression of a white girl in New York: "Yo Yo, you have a life in Chiang Mai that I don't know about?!"

"Pick up a friend and bring him the day after tomorrow."

The groom then settled down, rolled his eyes and walked away.

Yan Wu's phone vibrated.It was a picture sent by Ding Qing.

Yan Wu turned off the phone.

Mongkhon`s, Changkang Road, west of Xidongcai Road, [-]:[-] p.m.

Yan Wu walked into a local convenience store.

The business of this Thai convenience store is not good. Compared with the 7/11 next to it, it is pitifully bleak. 7/11 is brightly lit, and many people who are off work, traveling, and wandering the streets gather around the convenience store, making their own troubles, which further highlights the lack of popularity here.There are two white lights hanging at the entrance of this convenience store, one is broken, and the other is shining weakly. Next to it stands a waist-length neon sign. The store is named after the owner, and the letters are missing, which is incomplete. .From a distance, it looks like a small business on the verge of bankruptcy, but in fact, it has been in this state of life for more than ten years. The boss has a different way of taking care of the business.

The boss sat on the rocking chair behind the cashier and dozed off with his legs crossed. When he saw Yan Wu, he raised his hand to say hello. Yan Wu nodded and walked in without looking at the shelves. Push it away and continue walking in.After walking a few meters, a thick and solid iron gate appeared, and Yan Wu knocked on the small window on the iron gate.After a while, the small window was pulled open vigorously, revealing a face with one half of the striped salamander and the other half nervous, winking fiercely, glanced at Yan Wu, then looked back, nodded, and took a long time Pushing open the door vigorously, Yan Wu stepped in.

A young couple came in in front of the store. They felt that the convenience store opposite was too crowded. They wanted to buy some instant noodles, but they couldn’t find it after searching the shelves. The food here was poor, and there were a lot of expired ones, but there were a lot of bandages. , alcohol, cigarettes, office supplies.The two walked up to the boss with some embarrassment and asked if there was any bread or something.The boss raised his eyes and pointed to the convenience store opposite.The boy and the girl looked at each other, wanting to buy a pack of cigarettes, but the boss stood up impatiently, took a pack of cigarettes and threw it over, without opening the cash register, he just reached out and asked for money.The young couple glared at him, paid the money and left in a hurry with cigarettes. The customer experience was terrible.

As soon as Yan Wu entered the back court, his attention was immediately drawn to the center of the court.

The audience was full of cheers.The entire arena resembles the layout of the Colosseum in Rome. The lower platform in the middle is a boxing ring. In the middle of the arena are two panting boxers. One is obviously weaker than the other, panting harder, as if the surrounding air is thin, panting for the air. There was no more mouthful after one mouthful, and compared with his panting, the blood stains and bruises on his face were nothing to mention.Standing in the stands surrounding the boxing ring were shouting gamblers, shouting the names of the players loudly, mixing in colorful swear words from all over the world, swearing, spit flying, frowning with smoke, leaning forward Waving his hand, he wished he could punch himself.But if he really punched himself, he probably wouldn't have such a turbulent aura of cursing.

A person sitting in the back row of the stands was observing the situation on the field. When he saw Yan Wu coming in, his eyes lit up, and he squeezed through the crowd and walked towards him.

Yan Wu stood where he was and waited for someone to come.

The guy nicknamed "Tide" mixed in the major black boxing markets, a professional broker, from Chiang Mai, 1.7 meters tall, in his thirties, when he was young, he was as thin as a drug overdose, and later married a restaurant proprietress. People seem to be getting fatter when they are inflated, especially the belly, so it is very difficult to squeeze over now, and I prefer to dress like a hip-hop singer, with a bunch of chains hanging on it, which is very cumbersome.Yan Wu watched him swim over from the crowd, retract his stomach for a while, take off the chain hooked on others for a while, finally came to Yan Wu with a greasy smile, and handed him a cigarette.

Yan Wu shook his head: "Quit."

Tide got angry with his mouth: "Is the person you mentioned coming?"

"On the way."

"what is it call?"

"poker."

Tide pulled Yan Wu to the side, stretched out two fingers and pointed in the air, which meant that he was about to start talking. "Let's say it first, you will lose in the first round."

Yan Wu backed away a little bit, hiding from the smoke. When he smelled the smoke, he wanted to smoke. If he couldn't smoke, he was in a bad mood: "I know."

————————————————————————————————————————

When Yan Wu first came to Chiang Mai, money was very tight for a while, and he had a boxing here introduced by Tide. Tide looked at Yan Wu at the time, and felt that he was not tall enough or strong enough, but when he heard that he was a mercenary, he stepped forward and squeezed his arm, lifted his clothes to look at his muscles, opened his mouth to look at his teeth, and looked at him like an animal. After waiting for a long time, I finally asked Yan Wu to go to the convenience store on Saturday night. After Tide finished speaking, he wanted to leave, but Yan Wu stopped him: "Is it settled?"

Tide looked at him impatiently: "Well, what else?"

Yan Wu stretched out his left hand and pushed Tide vigorously, and Tide staggered a few steps and hit the wall, almost spitting blood back and forth.His bodyguards went up to make a move, but Tide stopped them with a wave of his hand, and had to go to the field, not injured.When Yan Wu left, Tide said eccentrically, "Mr. Yan, a wild dog dies the worst."

Yan Wu ignored him.

In the boxing ring on Saturday, the Brazilian opposite Yan Wu was full of momentum. He only cared about the audience as soon as he entered the ring, and walked around the ring, causing bursts of cheers.The Brazilian finally stood in front of Yan Wu and said some words that Yan Wu could not understand, which should be provocative, because after he finished speaking, he spit at Yan Wu, and there was another burst of cheers around him.

Yan Wu took a closer look at the surroundings and found that this person should be the champion of the previous year. The first match was against the champion, which was different from what was agreed.Yan Wu turned his head to look at Tide behind the stands. The latter raised his eyebrows and exhaled a long puff of smoke deliberately.

The champion in front of him was very arrogant, jumping up and down, cursing and laughing.

The referee supported the two, then let go of his hands and blew his whistle, and stepped back.

The champion threw a powerful punch and came straight to Yan Wu's face. Yan Wu dodged sideways, stepped back half a step to the left, stood on his left foot, moved his center of gravity forward slightly, pulled out his right leg, and kicked sideways with all his might. Jaw hit.

The champion bounced up with this force and fell heavily on the ground. The referee went up for a few seconds. The champion looked bad and couldn't get up.

The game seems to be over...

... This scene, no one thought of it.

So it was very quiet for a while. Tide stood in the back row, staring cross-eyed.

Yan Wu was a little at a loss.

Almost at the same time, overwhelming shouts rang out, startling Yan Wu, Tide ran down from the stands, jumped into the boxing ring, and kicked Yan Wu who was stunned: "Are you fucking crazy? Punch, Are you killing people? If you want to kill you, you have to tell the truth!"

Yan Wu turned to look at him, Tide paused, and immediately took a step back, ready to apologize for kicking him.But Yan Wu was not thinking about kicking people here, he asked Tide: "Will someone save him?"

Tide was stunned for a moment, and pulled Yan Wu out: "No matter. Occupational risks, you have to know when you come to play. Besides, you will use medicine when you see it."

Tide pulled Yan Wu out of the boxing ring, held Yan Wu's arm tightly, and felt that he had found a golden ticket, his face flushed: "From now on, you and I will join hands and make a fortune together!"

Yan Wu looked at him with a smile: "Didn't you bet on him?"

Tide didn't speak, thought about it and laughed again: "Mistakes, mistakes, no one wins this game, there will be opportunities in the future."

Yan Wu said lightly: "I won."

Tide reacted for a while, cursed, and approached in a low voice: "Boxers can't bet."

"I bet with a friend. The odds are really good." Yan Wu bet with the groom.

Tide's face changed: "It's not your turn to play like this, I can't let you take the money away."

Yan Wu withdrew his smile and looked at him: "You try."

Tide rolled his eyes, his eyes were black and small, in his eyes full of whites, this movement was indescribably weird, as if his careful thoughts had been laid out to see, and he couldn't hide any calculations: "Let me put it this way, Qian It’s not that easy to win, the champion just lost like this, don’t think about those people behind him who can let you take the money away safely, you don’t understand the tricks in it. You are the one I pulled in, and I will win if you win this game. You can’t get rid of the relationship, why don’t you and I cooperate, I’ll help you get rid of those who threaten you and those who steal your money, and you, you don’t have to do anything, you and I will just be friends.”

Yan Wu looked at him: "How much does this friend want?"

"Not much, forty percent. Think about it, it's definitely worth it. It's easy to find a daughter, but hard to find a friend."

Yan Wu rolled his eyes and thought for a while: "Thirty percent."

"make a deal."

Yan Wu only played that one game that year, because he was suspended, and being suspended by the black boxing is considered the only one. Tide took his money and happily divided it.After that, he kept persuading Yan Wu to change his identity and continue fighting. Yan Wu was not often in Chiang Mai at the time, so he ignored his invitation.Later, after staying in Chiang Mai for a long time, I thought about doing business with Tide. Yan Wu was in charge of pointing out skills and making bets secretly, while Tide was in charge of discovering newcomers and arranging the game process. partner.

Yan Wu said tonight that he would bring someone over.It's poker.

When Yan Wu and Nian Yao were chatting, they mentioned that when the Yan family was laying out, they did not give Yan Wu any shares or positions, and they changed the leader's position to other names in many operations that Yan Wu participated in before. If not, it's completely erased.Poker was angry, so he spoke a few words for Yan Wu, contradicted Yan Zhangyang, and then was expelled. After the expulsion, he did not go to other legions. He stayed in Keena for a long time and heard that it was not very good.

After hearing this, Yan Wu contacted Poker, wanting him to come to Chiang Mai. At first, Poker was reluctant to go to Yan Wu. After all, Yan Wu also had his own hard work when he came out of NT, but there was really nothing to do around him, so he I promised to come to Chiang Mai.

————————————————————————————————————————

Yan Wu was still chatting with Tide, and they talked about that Tide was going to have a daughter, and the opening of a branch of the restaurant was about to slow down.Poker came over with a bag on his back.

Poker is 27 years old, Romanian, his father is Gypsy, his mother is Chinese, he can speak Chinese, but not very well, and he hates being called "Gypsy". 1.8 meters five, tall and strong with an inverted triangle, dressed in layers of clothes, one over the other, the collar at the neck has four or five layers, black curly hair left to the shoulders, blue and gray pupils, embedded in the eye sockets The inside is as deep as a well, there is no blood on the face, but the color of the lips is very red, gloomy and melancholy, Tide suddenly thought it was a wandering poet.

Poker came over to say hello to Yan Wu: "Boss." The two hugged, and Yan Wu introduced each other to each other. Tide habitually wanted to reach out and look at his teeth, but his hand was slapped off by Yan Wu.

"He told you all?" Tide asked Poker.

Poker nods.

"The next game is you. Did you bring any clothes?"

"Bring it."

"Okay, I'll make a bet, you can lead him to the back." Yan Wu said to Tide, and nodded to Poker again.

After the game started, Tide sat next to Yan Wu and watched poker and boxing together.

"That's okay, will you still fight in the future?"

"Let me ask."

"Really, for the past two years, I have always wanted to do something big, like a dragon."

"That's called an industrial chain."

"Anything is fine." Tide waved his hand, "It's not profitable to be a broker. People like you and me who know the truth occasionally do cheating but earn money. Now it's strictly controlled." Tide took a puff on his cigarette, heavily sigh. "So, I want to get involved in their business. Look at the boss, besides this one, he has more than a dozen other games in Chiang Mai. Not to mention the locals who come to gamble, those who come from Singapore and the mainland are rich. People, they are here to send money."

"His business is so good, he will let you intervene?" Yan Wu looked at Tide.

"You don't know this. There were Chinese people who wanted to buy this place. They offered a lot of money and a Swiss account as a gift. The old man has been here for so many years, and he has offended many people. New forces have also risen, so he wants to quit Later, the business failed, but the old man was determined to leave. The key point was that no one under him could take over the field. We are different. I have management experience and contacts. You can control the field and understand. Gambling rules, let's work together and see if we can succeed."

Yan Wu didn't speak, he didn't know how deep the water was, Tide had a few truths. Tide still stared at Yan Wu, Yan Wu didn't look at him, but stared at the soot on the ground: "Is there no one else who wants to take this business?"

"Yes. It's a big deal. For example, there is a flower shop on the other side of the iron bridge. The Irishman did a lot of things. He was originally an intermediary, but now he also gathers his own staff to do business and let people give it to him. He works. But he doesn't have a local background, so it might not be that easy." Tide took the opportunity to hint at his local identity.

Yan Wu nodded, and asked him emphatically, "If we take over, who else will be involved?"

Tide pinched his cigarette: "You also know that in Huang's gambling on drugs, drugs are not something ordinary people can handle. Huang, you and I don't have anyone in our hands. There is only one bet left. Betting on fists is not as good as betting on other things, and it doesn't take too many people. We can afford it. Besides, it is enough for the old man to give us three or four out of a dozen shows. At that time, the local bosses in Chiang Mai will inevitably draw money from our place. I will talk to them, so you don’t have to worry. Alas, we are not ambitious, it is just a small opportunity, and after we seize the most, we will eat and dress better." Tide accurately grasped Yan Wu's mentality, he felt that this man did not want to disturb the water, so he tried his best to Describe this matter as ordinary.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Pay the money first. Don't worry, I will definitely pay the big head. I can explain it mainly because you paid the money. If you want to subdivide the division of labor later, you can discuss it later."

Yan Wu turned to look at him: "I have to add someone."

Tide thought for a while: "Okay, but you two pay twice."

Yan Wu nodded: "I'll think about it again."

Tide thought it was going to happen, so he patted Yan Wu on the shoulder: "Okay, it's okay, I have some time to think about it, so call me when you're done."

Yan Wu nodded, took out his phone and took a look, it was 11:[-].He turned to the chat record with Ding Qing, and the record stopped at a mournful emoji sent by Ding Qing, Yan Wu hesitated for a while, and replied to him.

--nice.Good night.
