Jinling Night Chapter 96 Lottery Center
Zhang Lu put his hand on Ji Gang's shoulder and said, "We have paid the taxes. Who dares to imitate us? Who dares to make trouble? That means you can't get along with the government office. Besides, your current identity is the Jinyiwei!"
After being in charge of the underworld for a long time, Ji Gang even forgot his identity as the Jinyiwei. As long as he is backed by the imperial court and Jinyiwei, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, as long as the money is in place, even if the Nine Gate appears, there is no way to deal with them. At that time, the government, the underworld, and the people will stand on their side, and the Nine Gate will definitely not be an opponent.
Ji Gang gave Zhang Lu a thumbs up and said, "My lord is right. According to humble judgment, this lottery is feasible."
Since they were recognized by Ji Gang, the two of them discussed the specific matters and details of the lottery for a long time.
Zhang Lu became the boss behind the scenes who came up with ideas, commonly known as the boss of the hand, and all the specific affairs were handled by Ji Gang.
After the discussion was completed, Ji Gang did not plan to take refuge in the Jinyiwei. He could not find the people from the Nine Gate for three days. God knew when they would surface. Ji Gang was now full of his mind and just wanted to start running his lottery career.
"You wait a moment." Ji Gang was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Lu.
Ji Gang turned around, but found that Zhang Lu stared at him with a serious face. Ji Gang asked hurriedly: "I wonder what sir, I have any instructions?"
Zhang Lu walked past Ji Gang and chose to turn his back to Ji Gang. He felt that this would be like a mysterious and connotative leader, so that he could shock Ji Gang. Of course, there was also some forks in it.
I heard Zhang Lu say, "I have given you all the things in the lottery. Please remember one thing, you are the Jinyiwei now. I don't ask you to do good things every day, but don't do those things you shouldn't do. Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhang Lu's words are also considered a harsh attack. After all, Ji Gang is from a gangster and is prone to doing things out of order. If you cannot set good rules now, you will not cause a lot of trouble in the future.
Ji Gang lowered his head and bowed his hand, saying, "I am remembering the teachings of the Lord."
Zhang Lu turned around and nodded, his expression no longer solemnly, and he said again: "By the way, there is one more thing."
In Ji Gang's eyes, the lottery business is complicated and complicated. In order to avoid omissions, it is normal for Zhang Lu to thank him for his advice.
Ji Gang bowed his body and said, "Sir, please speak."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Lu looked embarrassed. He scratched his forehead with his fingers and said, "You lend me some money first, not much, just ten or twenty taels."
What is this operation? Ji Gang felt that his mind was not enough. Zhang Lu was a noble child or a Jinyiwei Xiaoqi. Such a person still had to borrow money from him?
Seeing Ji Gang standing there without answering, Zhang Lu showed a serious expression and said, "What? Don't you want to borrow it, right? You used to be a gangster who opened a gambling house. I don't believe you don't even have ten or twenty taels."
Seeing Zhang Lu change his face, Ji Gang quickly took out twenty taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhang Lu, saying, "You can ask for money for a low position, so it is considered that you can respect a low position. Here are twenty taels, so please accept it with a smile."
Ji Gang deliberately emphasized the words "need money" and "accepting with laughter". After running a gambling house for many years, he still has some money. It seems normal to take out twenty taels to respect his superiors, but he still couldn't help but complain in his heart: Sir, your identity is not like a person who is short of money. Even if you are short of money, you only need twenty taels to find a low-level position. This pattern is not good.
Zhang Lu took the twenty taels, glanced at Ji Gang with a slanted glance, and said, "You don't think you say this! Do I want money? I'm borrowing it! Do I understand? When the lottery industry makes money, I will pay it back!"
Ji Gang nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, yes, adults will definitely be humble."
Although he said that, Ji Gang didn't think that he could get back the twenty taels of silver.
Zhang Lu was helpless, but he didn't want to explain too much. He waved his hand to Ji Gang, "Okay, okay, you hurry up and implement the lottery business."
When Ji Gang left, Zhang Lu went to Qingmoshang. It was still early, and Qingmoshang, including Yuanbao, went out to beg for food, leaving only a few people to take care of the disabled people rescued from the slaughter.
Zhang Lu left twenty taels of silver and left.
...
Seven days later, Ji Gang's original gambling house transformed into the first lottery center in Jinling City. His thugs in the past also became staff members of the lottery center.
The preparations have been completed, so Ji Gang of course has to ask Zhang Lu to come and inspect it.
Although he decided to be a hand-off manager, some things must not be absent. Of course, Zhang Lu had to come to the lottery center to make a good move.
Just now, Ji Gang had already lined up with a group of subordinates to greet him.
Zhang Lu walked past the welcome team, looked at Ji Gang's subordinates, his face darkened, and asked Ji Gang: "Do you want these people to come to receive the guests?"
Ji Gang nodded and said, "Yes, these are the younger brothers I received before. They are loyal to me. Don't look at them all, they are still capable of receiving guests with simple tasks."
Zhang Lu had no choice but to say, "Our lottery tickets must be open to the public." Zhang Lu said, pointing to one of the thugs, and said, "Look, this guy is so tall, I'm afraid of the scar on his face. When the people see him, will they dare to come in and buy our lottery?"
The thug who was pointed at lowered his head in shame. Once upon a time, the scary scar on his face was the one he was most proud of. He didn't know how many people he scared away with this scar, but now, he is just like an aggrieved child.
Zhang Lu then pointed to another thug and said, "Look at this person again, he looks like a liar in the world. When he comes to receive guests, can the guests trust us?"
Ji Gang scratched his head and said, "Sir, what you said is reasonable is all the negligence of a humble position."
Then, Ji Gang showed a embarrassed expression and said, "Sir, these people have been with Huyi for some time and are trustworthy. Now we are going to do big business. I'm afraid it's not good to put all these brothers aside?"
Zhang Lu glanced at Ji Gang, "I didn't expect you to be a loyal master."
Ji Gang said: "When you are confused about the Tao, don't you just emphasize the word "meaning"?"
Zhang Lu nodded and said, "I only said that these people are not suitable for reception of guests, but I didn't say that they were going to fire."
