Infinite Brilliant Scroll

Chapter 78 Southwest Community, under Tao Zhu

In the southwestern community of Xinma Port, the more famous buildings, in addition to the University of Xinma Port, another building that must be mentioned must be the building of Tao Zhu Group.

Taozhu Building, divided into 60 floors, is nearly 300 meters high.

Fangma Mountain, the place with the highest natural terrain in the entire Xinma Port, is only 162 meters high, almost reaching halfway up the building.

The top floor of this building is the area where Fan Buchou, the chairman of Taozhu Group, usually works, receives guests, and entertains.

Specifically, it is divided into the office, the living room, the chess and card room, the 3D shadow area, and the root carving hall that occupies half of the top floor.

Root carving is Fan Buchou's personal hobby. In the root carving hall, there are twenty display stands and six display cabinets.

Using tree roots, bamboo roots, and tree burls, following the natural texture, all kinds of utensils are carved out, all showing their respective charms in the quiet and soft light.

The small ones include stick heads, pen holders, Buddha handles, scratching backs, and pipes, while the large ones include tigers crouching on dragon plates, Maitreya holding wealth, Guanyin delivering a child, Lu Dongbin toasting when drunk, and so on.

Among the exhibits here, there are also several carved by Fan Buchou himself. He has recently moved his mind to carve a mythical beast with the head of a tiger and the body of a dragon to ward off evil spirits.

"For root carving, the first thing to do is to let nature take its course and be original, but the second is to follow the original texture. The shape of these roots is very important. Good materials can be encountered but not. Please."

Fan Buchou held a small file in his hand, and while modifying the semi-finished root carving, he was still muttering.

In the huge root carving hall, there was only one person watching his craftsmanship and listening to his admonitions, a boy with short hair and a suit, his son, Fan Minzhi.

As the leader of the southwestern gang, Fan Buchou has had many women in his life, but he has few children. He only had a daughter when he was young, and later died of illness. It was not until he was 50 that he had another daughter. son.

Therefore, today's Fan Buchou is already gray-haired, and Fan Minzhi is not yet eighteen years old. The two of them standing together, to those who don't know, look more like a pair of grandparents.

"The mythical beasts in the root carvings are not only tiger-headed and dragon-body, but also patterns of snakes, sparrows, frogs, cicadas, etc. are carved on the four legs. Each has its own momentum, and the requirements for the material itself are too high."

"Second Brother Yun alone, you can find such a good thing for me, it's really filial piety."

Hearing this, Fan Minzhi finally said, "Second Brother Yun is absolutely loyal to Dad, but unfortunately he doesn't seem to like me very much."

Fan Buchou kept his eyes on Gendiao, and asked, "Then do you like him?"

Fan Minzhi thought about it, and said honestly, "I don't like it."

"Well, you are a newcomer and he is an old man. It is normal for you to have some conflicts with each other. However, you are about to become an adult. After a person becomes an adult, I don't like the weight of three words, but I don't like it." It's the same."

Fan Buchou said calmly, "Then do you like gang methods?"

Fan Minzhi couldn't help showing a smile: "I'm quite used to it."

Fan Buchou glanced at him, and said: "Since you were eight years old, I have shown you one by one the things on the road, and asked you to do it yourself. At that time, I was thinking that the road is like a wolf and a tiger, and you It’s never wrong to be more vicious and vicious than them.”

"But in the blink of an eye ten years have passed, the situation in Singapore and Malaysia is about to change, and you have to change accordingly."

Fan Minzhi respectfully said: "I know, Dad, you tell me what I want, I will definitely do it well."

"It's not what I want you to do, it's the current situation."

Fan Buchou taught earnestly, "A few years ago, the situation in Singapore and Malaysia was unstable. This place is our Happy Forest, the Bliss Pool, where the gangs operate like a fish in water. People from the social council can get money from us. They go up and down. It depends on our faces."

"However, in recent years, Singapore and Malaysia have taken a breather. If the economy needs new development, the gang system will become obsolete. It's not that people in society suddenly want to be good people, but that there are too many gangs. The existence of them prevents them from earning more money."

Fan Minzhi nodded repeatedly, deeply agreeing.

He hasn't been to any serious school since he was a child, but with the tutor his father hired him, he has to learn much more than those who go to normal school.

Although he is only 17 years old, there are naturally people who are always paying attention to and reporting to him the economic trends in all aspects.

Judging from the situation in recent years, the economic prosperity of Singapore and Malaysia, in order to have a big development, the first thing is to suppress the living space of gangs.

"So the four of us old guys have already prepared for a complete transformation in the past two years, but we are old after all, and there are some things that have to be done by the energetic new generation."

Fan Buchou continued, "On my side, of course I have to give it to you and your brother-in-law. Your coming of age ceremony is when you make your official debut. Of course, before that, you have to give me an answer sheet."

This is to designate one's own successor. Although it is a matter of course, when Fan Buchou said this, Fan Minzhi still couldn't restrain himself, and a trembling excitement burst out from the bottom of his heart. .

There are only a few thousand employees of Tao Zhu Group on the surface, and the armed forces that are directly controlled secretly are only about a thousand people with guns, and more than a hundred people who have been transformed into warriors.

However, the gang situation here in Singapore and Malaysia has clear barriers from top to bottom. Top gangs like the Tao Zhu Group will be mobilized layer by layer when necessary, and the movements of the 10,000+ gang members in the entire southwest community will be dominated by them.

They should be counted in the direction of the situation in Singapore and Malaysia.

Even if those people don't actually obey all of them, and even if they want to transform, they will inevitably suffer some losses. This power still makes people feel hot in their hearts and eyes.

Fan Minzhi replied: "What answer sheet? Is the property under my management required to produce new results, or the part under my management..."

"It's not just about you now."

Fan Buchou put down the small file, straightened up, sighed sincerely, and said, "I want to change, but some people under my command, some are used to the previous gang style, and some may not be happy for you to take the lead, so they will inevitably want to change." Hopping."

"Ah Hao was supposed to come back last month, but he hasn't come to see me until now. He's unfamiliar. You Bai, Feiyan, and they are very active, too active. You have to tell me before the coming-of-age ceremony, are you going to Which group to win over and which group to suppress, when that day comes, you have to state their position and count it as my answer sheet."

Fan Minzhi's expression was awe-inspiring, and he responded heavily and slowly.

Fan Buchou stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the half-finished root carving.

The head of the evil spirit was directly facing his face.

After a moment of silence, Fan Buchou picked up a small axe, and at a 45-degree angle to the grain of the wood, he chopped off a piece of superfluous root under the evil spirit's foot with one axe.

"It doesn't have to be a position. If you have the ability, you can use the fate of some people to answer the father's question."

Fan Buchou said the word "end game" lightly, but it sounded heavy to Fan Minzhi's ears.

"Go."

"Goodbye, Dad."

Fan Minzhi exited the root carving hall respectfully and politely.

A cloud in the sky disturbed the sun, and the light coming in from outside the glass curtain wall was slightly deflected.

Fan Buchou put down the ax and looked carefully.

His hands are bionic true spirit machines that look like normal young people's flesh and blood. They are elastic, have fingerprints, and even have pores, which are worthy of the expensive price.

But in terms of touch and feel, relying on the feedback brought by the dense sensors under the bionic skin is not as good as real human hands after all.

The angle of his ax just now was a little bit off, and after cutting off the excess, there was a little undetectable crack on the wood carving.

"Pity."

Fan Buchou flicked his finger on Gendiao Bixie's head.

The semi-finished hardwood root carving collapsed from the head until the whole half-human-sized root carving collapsed into a pile of sawdust on the workbench.

Fan Buchou watched all this indifferently.

………………

After Fan Minzhi left the root carving hall, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message, and soon received a reply, with a smile brewing in his eyes, and took the elevator to the 36th floor of Tao Zhu Building.

Fengshui is prevalent here in Singapore and Malaysia, and many people are a little superstitious. The office of the chief financial officer is set on the 36th floor, which means to follow the six or six.

Fan Minzhi passed by many staff members on this floor, walked around the corridor, came to the office with the sign of Chief Financial Officer, and knocked on the door.

A gentle female voice came from the door.

"Come in."

Fan Minzhi opened the door, went in, locked it, and closed the shutters of the office.

Behind the desk, a beauty with curly hair in a work suit was casually applying nail polish and looked up.

Fan Minzhi went around the desk, knelt down beside the leather chair naturally, and hugged the beauty's long legs in silk stockings with both hands.

"Sister Yanzi, I miss you."

Lang Feiyan, one of the four heroes, lightly stretched out a finger, touched Fan Minzhi's forehead, and said with a low smile, "Why are you so excited? What good thing happened and you still refuse to say it in the text message?"

"Let's talk about it later..."

Fan Minzhi's voice gradually became muffled.

Someone knocked on the door outside the office. After knocking three times, there was no response, so he retreated knowingly.

Everyone knows that Lang Feiyan has a bad temper. If she is disturbed by some trivial matter, she will definitely usher in a painful life.

In the well-sound-proof office, the light was dim. Half an hour later, Fan Minzhi was sitting on a chair, kicked in the chest, and slipped a certain distance.

Lang Feiyan's neckline was undone, and her stockings had faded to her calves. Sitting on the table, she took out a makeup mirror to touch up her makeup, and said hoarsely, "You brat, you are too bold today."

"Because the old man made a promise to me today."

Fan Minzhi smiled and briefly recounted the conversation in the root carving hall.

Lang Feiyan raised her left eyebrow, and lazily said: "Oh, then it seems that I must be an old man who will be punished."

An eager look appeared on Fan Minzhi's face. He walked up to her and said hastily, "How is that possible? I will marry Sister Yanzi in the future. I will deal with whoever you say I want to deal with."

"Little idiot."

Lang Feiyan scolded coquettishly with a smile, "Need to say, Er Er Yun is the least likely person to convince you."

Fan Minzhi said harshly: "That's right, I have long disliked him, so I will deal with him first."

"You have to have a strategy to deal with him. I don't know what Dugu Hao has been up to lately. Maybe he capsized somewhere. His subordinates are not at peace. Yun Laoer may have a heart for the meat on his plate. This is an opportunity."

After Lang Feiyan adjusted her makeup, she returned to her glamorous appearance, "Also, there is another unexpected thing."

She flipped through the keys, took out the remote control from the drawer, and the projector was turned on.

On the small screen opposite the office, a young man appeared, and the pictures changed one after another. They were all pictures of the same person in different places.

Fan Minzhi said full of resentment: "My sister collects so many photos of other men, and she is still a handsome young man. Do you want to like the new and dislike the old?"

Lang Feiyan didn't even bother to look at him, and said in a hoarse voice: "If you are so stupid, then I'm really blind, just pretend I've been bitten by a dog a few times, get out."

"Sister, don't lose your temper."

Fan Minzhi quickly grabbed her hand, put aside his teasing intentions, turned around and said, "I seem to have seen this person before. Over there in Yishun District, he is the leader of a new gang."

"Little gang leader, heh!"

Lang Feiyan pressed the remote control to her chin, and smiled softly, "Under Yandu's hands, the group of people who stuck in the seaside a few years ago were killed by him."

"According to the news, Wei Lengbo and his four brothers were killed by one person. I checked him, and the earliest I can find out is that he came from Hong Kong, bionic machine, Chinese, tsk tsk, this is a river dragon."

………………

"The old saying is good, dragons don't live with snakes, such a little dragon, mixed with the gang around him, how can he make a good gang?"

In the garden of a villa, there are five tigers and four young ones, and the second eldest, Yun Youbai, throws a stack of documents on the stone table in the gazebo.

His thick hair was neatly combed, and he had a short beard that reached to his ears. He was wearing a loose red double-breasted Tang suit with seven grape buttons on the front placket, and he laughed twice with his signature heroism.

"Daoyuan, help me get in touch with him. You can have a better attitude. Pull him to our side."

The five tigers of the Tao Zhu Group, Liu Jingtang, Yun Youbai, Gu Daoyuan, Hu Buxi, are tall and talented.

Except for Fan Buchou's son-in-law Liu Jingtang, the other three have been gradually attracted by Yun Youbai over the past ten years.

Gu Daoyuan, in a suit and leather shoes, glasses and earphones, in his 40s, collected the stack of materials, looked through them, nodded, and went out by car to the site of the Shenzhou Jieyi Society.
