Chapter 540 David
Jindu Restaurant.
Not far from the restaurant, there is a 24-hour automatic parking lot.
A Mercedes-Benz drove into the parking lot, the direction of the front of the car was facing Jindu Restaurant.
Zhang Jianmin sat in the cab, looking at Jindu Restaurant from time to time, "Brother, should it be this restaurant?"
Zhang Jianguo glanced at the phone, "It's here, the address and the name of the restaurant match."
Zhang Jianmin frowned and said, "Why do you find such a remote restaurant? Will the business be good?"
Zhang Jianguo looked out the window, "We're here to talk, not to eat, so what about his business?"
Zhang Jianmin lowered his voice and said worriedly, "I'm not worried that this is a black shop."
Zhang Jianguo took a deep breath, as if to cheer himself up, "Whether it is a black shop or not, we are not afraid of them this time."
Zhang Jianmin glanced at his watch, "It's almost time, Mr. Li and the others haven't arrived yet, do you want to urge them?"
Zhang Jianguo thought for a while, "I just contacted Mr. Li, and he reassured me that the negotiation will not be delayed."
After a while, Zhang Jianmin looked down at his watch, "Brother, the appointed time is up, should I contact Mr. Li again?"
Zhang Jianguo picked up the phone, hesitated for a while, and finally put it down, "Mr. Li is not the kind of person who does things unreliably, he should know it well, let's go in first."
"Just the two of us going in, there won't be any danger, right?" Zhang Jianmin retreated a little.
"Then I'll go alone, you wait for them here." Zhang Jianguo opened the door and got out of the car directly.
Seeing his brother leaving alone, Zhang Jianmin slammed the steering wheel with his right fist, got out of the car, and chased after him.
The two brothers entered the restaurant, and it was only past ten o'clock in the morning. There were no customers in the restaurant, and an Asian woman was sitting behind the counter, and she said in a perfunctory tone, "The back kitchen hasn't been cleaned up yet, order can only be made at eleven o'clock. "
"Is Mr. Zhao from Jinlang Building Materials Company here? He invited us to come here."
The Asian woman stood up and pointed to the back, "Mr. Zhao is in the private room on the second floor, just go up the stairs."
"Thank you." Zhang Jianguo said politely, and went up the stairs with his brother one after the other.
Passing the turn of the stairs, a youth with flowery arms stopped the two of them, "Are you Mr. Zhao's guests?"
"Yes, you smoke." Zhang Jianguo took out a box of Huazi and handed it to the other party.
The flower-armed youth took the cigarette and motioned for the two to lie on the wall, "I want to search you."
Zhang Jianmin dissatisfied, "Why do you need to search?"
"You are spicy next door, why are there so many? Get down when you are told, don't toast or eat fine wine."
Zhang Jianguo winked at his younger brother, and the two of them obediently leaned on the wall as ordered. The man with the flower arm searched them before letting them go upstairs, "Private room 208, don't go wrong."
Zhang Jianmin wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling like he had entered a den of thieves.
Zhang Jianguo walked to the door of private room 208, knocked on the door, "Boom."
"Come in."
Zhang Jianguo took a deep breath, opened the door and walked into the private room.
The private room is very spacious, the curtains are drawn, the lights are turned on, and there is a large round table that seats ten people. Standing beside the round table is a young man in his early twenties, wearing a white tight vest and earrings, with an airy appearance. , there is a high probability that he is a gangster.
Beside the round table sat two men in their thirties, one of whom was Mr. Zhao, the person in charge of Jinlang Building Materials Company. He had a mustache and looked exceptionally shrewd.
Beside him sat a big man with a strong figure, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and his head bowed. There was a pile of parts on the table in front of him.
Zhang Jianguo didn't pay much attention to it at first, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an accessory of a pistol.
I saw that the man with a cigarette in his mouth was slowly assembling the pistol. The sound of "Kaka..." made Zhang Jianguo feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. He looked at the man with the mustache, "Mr. Zhao, long time no see."
The man known as Mr. Zhao said in a strange way, "Hey, Mr. Zhang, it's rare that you still know me, and you thought you forgot me."
"How could it be?" Zhang Jianguo showed a flattering look, and looked at the man who assembled the pistol, "What's the name of this boss?"
Mr. Zhao slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "Look at my memory, I forgot to introduce you.
This is Lord Liu, the boss of the "Asian Boys" gang, a well-known figure in the Los Angeles gang, and the major shareholder behind our Jinlong Building Materials Company.
Don't you want to talk to someone who can call the shots?
I specially invited him here today. If you have any ideas or requests, just tell him.
However, let me remind you brothers first, Master Liu's temper is not very good, if you make him unhappy, don't think about it. "
Zhang Jianguo said cautiously, "Master Liu and Mr. Zhao, both of you also know that the market conditions are not very good recently, the company's profitability is not high, and our company is a bit unable to make ends meet.
In order to alleviate the company's financial pressure, we also made an investment and added two company shareholders.
This company is not decided by our two brothers now, we have to listen to the opinions of the two shareholders. "
Mr. Zhao raised his voice, "So, the new shareholders of your company have opinions on our Jinlang Building Materials Company and don't want to cooperate?"
"No, no, I have no opinion, I just think the price of building materials is too high, and the quality of building materials should be checked."
Mr. Zhao sneered, "Old Zhang, we have been cooperating for three years. Why didn't you say that the price is high and the quality is problematic?
Now that your company has developed, you are playing tricks like me and want to kick our Jinlang company away.
That's not how it works. "
Zhang Jianguo said, "Mr. Zhao, we signed a three-year contract, and we have fulfilled the contract.
There is no one who kicks whom away..."
"Crack..."
The sound of a bullet being loaded interrupted Zhang Jianguo's words.
The man known as Mr. Liu had already assembled the pistol. He raised the pistol and aimed it at Zhang Jianguo and then at Zhang Jianmin, making the two brothers shrink back and dare not breathe.
Zhang Jianguo forced a smile, "Master Liu, let's talk about it, don't get angry."
Master Liu played with the gun in his hand, "I don't know how to do business, but I know a truth.
When you come out to hang out, you have to show loyalty.
You help me, I help you, only in this way can we become bigger and stronger.
The company has just made a little money, and then engages in internal strife and treachery for petty profits. This kind of person usually does not end well, what do you think? "
Looking at the gun in Master Liu's hand, the Zhang brothers broke out in cold sweat. This kind of blatant threat made the two brothers a little scared, and their backs felt chills.
They couldn't offend Master Liu, let alone the gang behind him.
Mr. Zhao smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, what did Master Liu ask you?"
Zhang Jianguo laughed and said, "Let's go back and discuss with the other two shareholders."
Mr. Zhao saw that the two brothers were frightened, and he was ready to strike while the iron was hot, "What are you doing when you go back, why don't you just call them over and have a face-to-face talk, if you have any opinions, you can raise them."
At this moment, there was a faint sound outside the private room.
A white man with a bald head walked into the Jindu restaurant quickly, muttering, "Damn, is this a new den for Asian boys? It's so hard to find."
The Asian woman sitting at the front desk said, "Sir, we are not officially open yet."
"I'm from Zhang's Construction Company."
"They're in a private room on the second floor."
"Thank you." This white man is David who came to negotiate.
David went up the stairs, but was stopped by the flower-armed man, who said condescendingly, "Who are you?"
David glanced at him, "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"
The flower-armed man raised his right arm, showing the tattoo on his right arm.
David raised his eyebrows, "Asian boy, it seems that I have come to the right place. I am a shareholder of Zhang's construction company and I am here to participate in a business meeting."
The flower-armed man pointed at the wall, "Lying there?"
David shrugged, "Why?"
"Because I want to search you, white man."
David laughed, "You want to search me?"
"Any questions?"
"I don't think you have the qualifications." After David's voice fell, he continued to go up the stairs.
"Fuck! Can't you understand human language?" The flower-armed man stretched out his left hand and pushed David's chest.
David grabbed the opponent's left finger with his right hand, and broke it hard, "Ah..." the man with the flower arm screamed, his body twisted in the direction of David's finger.
David clenched his fist with his left hand and punched him in the stomach. The man with the flower arm curled up in pain.
"Ah... you bastard, how dare you sneak up on me." The flower-armed man grinned in pain, and just about to get up to take revenge, his forehead felt a chill. When he looked up, he saw a black pistol on his forehead.
David put the police badge on his chest with his left hand unhurriedly, "Are you **** trying to assault the police? I don't mind making a hole in your forehead."
"Sorry, sir, I didn't know you were a policeman, so I didn't intend to offend you." The flower-armed man immediately faltered, and swallowed the swear words.
"Get out!"
The flower-armed man was about to run back to the private room to report the news as if he had received an amnesty.
David grabbed him by the collar and pulled back hard, the man with the flower arm rolled down the stairs directly,
"Boy, you are too careless."
"Bang bang..."
The flower-armed man rolled down the stairs, grinned in pain, looked up, saw the bald man pointing a gun at himself, turned around and ran away in fright.
The flower-armed man shouted loudly as soon as he ran outside the restaurant, "The police are here, there are police!"
David ignored him, went directly to the second floor, kicked open the door of the private room,
"boom!"
"Fuck! Which idiot found a restaurant, the room smells like shit."
Several people in the private room turned to look at David.
Master Liu put away his pistol when he heard the greeting from his younger brother. Looking at the police badge on David's chest, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Sir, what's the matter?"
David looked at Zhang Jianguo, "Sorry, I'm late, this place is as hard to find as a rat's nest."
"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's just right." Zhang Jianguo hurriedly got up, walked to David's side and reminded him in a low voice, "Captain David, that brawny man is surnamed Liu, and he's from the Asian Boy Gang. He has a gun!"
David directly raised his gun to Master Liu, "Do you want to attack the police?"
Master Liu hurriedly raised his hands, "No, sir! I'm here to discuss business."
"Then why are you carrying a gun?"
"I... I'm used to it."
"Me too." David put away his gun, pulled up a chair and sat down, raised his chin, "Let irrelevant people out, let's sit down and talk about business."
Master Liu made a show, and the younger brother at the side left the private room.
Mr. Zhao looked at David, and then asked Zhang Jianguo, "Mr. Zhang, we are here to discuss business. What do you mean by calling the police?"
Zhang Jianguo laughed, "Mr. Zhao, you misunderstood. I didn't call the police. This gentleman is one of the shareholders who invested in our company.
He also needs to nod to cooperate with the company. "
Mr. Zhao was stunned, as if he didn't expect Zhang Jianguo Brothers to do this.
David pointed to the two people on the opposite side, "Mr. Zhang, please introduce me."
"Okay." Zhang Jianguo responded, pointing to his mustache, "This is Mr. Zhao from Jinlang Building Materials Company,
This is the boss of the Asian Boy Gang and the major shareholder of Jinlang Building Materials Company. "
David looked at Master Liu, "Why didn't I know that the Asian kid has another boss?"
Master Liu sneered, "It's all their nonsense. I'm just the middle-level member of the gang."
David looked at each other, "You seem familiar, have we met?"
Master Liu looked at this strong white man, some bad memories appeared in his mind, cold sweat unknowingly broke out on his forehead, "Yes, Captain David.
Some time ago, I was arrested once by the anti-crime and anti-drug department, and you led the team. "
"This world is amazing, we actually sat together to discuss business today." David smiled and spread his hands, "OK, let's continue talking, I want to hear it too."
David's appearance directly broke the situation just now, and everyone fell silent.
The Zhang brothers don't want to talk about it.
The other party dare not talk.
After a stalemate for a while, David glanced at his watch, "Gentlemen, don't waste any more time.
If you talk, talk quickly.
If you don’t talk about it, I’m leaving. "
Master Liu was eager for the other party to leave quickly, and shook his head, "I don't know much about business, Mr. Zhao, what do you think?"
The surname Zhao was scared when he saw his backer, what idea could he have, "Mr. Zhang, what do you think?"
Zhang Jianguo did not respond.
David became more and more impatient, "Didling, since you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it.
Mr. Zhang, let's go. "
David stood up, walked to Master Liu, and warned, "I invested money in Zhang's construction company, if you want to cooperate, I welcome it.
But if I send people to make trouble and make trouble again, it will affect my money...
You know the consequences.
Also, stay away from their brothers, if something happens to their brothers or their family, I will blame you.
Understand? "
Master Liu assured, "Yes.
I also don’t want to deal with the police. Since Zhang’s Construction Company has your shares, I won’t have any contact with this company. He looked at the mustache on the side again, "Mr. Zhao, don't contact the Zhang Brothers Construction Company in the future." "
Mr. Zhao looked nervous, "Okay, our contract has expired, and we won't renew it."
David pointed at him, "Remember what you said."
Master Liu hesitated to speak, "Can I ask who is the other shareholder of Zhang's Construction Company?"
"Hehe." David smiled, patted his cheek,
"Are you worthy?"
