Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 560 You guys better wipe your drool off.

what?
Buying a fishing boat?
Hire workers?
Start a company?

After hearing what Douji Qiang said, all the underlings looked bewildered.

They could understand each of these items individually, but when put together, they seemed so strange.

This was the first time in their lives that they had ever seen a big shot taking money to recruit followers in order to buy fishing boats, hire workers, and start a company!

"Hey, Big Silly Bro, is the boss planning to use fishing boats to transport rice noodles?"

After a while, a very clever person suddenly spoke up with a look of realization.

Upon hearing his words, everyone's eyes immediately lit up, and they stared at Big Fool with excitement.

Could it be that they're going to switch from selling fish to selling rice noodles?
Actually, it's no wonder they were so excited.

Even within the "Young and Dangerous" genre, there are different levels.

Among them, the lowest level are those like them, who are called gangsters but actually just make a living by doing manual labor, and it would be a laughing stock if it were said out loud.

Those who are a little more advanced than them are those who fight tooth and nail for territory.

Then, at an even higher level, there's the fan-selling.

It's said that those who sell drugs can earn at least several thousand yuan a month!
Unlike them, they work themselves to the bone for a month and only earn a few hundred yuan at most. Let alone picking up girls, they would even have to think for half a day about finding a shampoo girl in the red-light district.

"Fuck your mother!"

Big Fool stared at Big Smart, his face full of anger.

"Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear Doujiqiang say that our boss is going to start a fishing company? You're all so self-righteous. If anyone dares to ruin the boss's plans, I'll chop them up and throw them into the sea to feed the fish!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent.

Especially the smart guy who had just spoken, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, fearing that if he wasn't careful, he would really be thrown into the sea to feed the fish by the silly guy.

Seeing this, Big Fool waved his hand dismissively and gave the order:

"Alright, Doujiqiang, you assign them tasks. Tell them to go out and find people to buy fishing boats right now, and then we'll go to the Bureau of Commerce together to register the company."

No sooner had he finished speaking than another simple-minded henchman called out, "Hey, Big Silly Brother, what if they don't want to sell?"

Upon hearing this incredibly stupid question, Big Fool couldn't help but roar in fury, "Do I have to teach you this? If he doesn't want to sell, why don't you beat him until he agrees?"

Upon hearing this, the underlings immediately exchanged bewildered glances.

Didn't you say we couldn't ruin the new big boss's plans?
Why are they being asked to beat someone up again?

Seeing this, Doujiqiang hurriedly explained, "Brothers, what Big Fool means is that everything our boss is going to do next is legal business. As long as the procedures are in order, it's fine. It's not like we're not going to pay, right?"

Got it, it means forced buying and selling!

Soon, the underlings received some travel expenses from Big Fool and headed straight for the nearby families who owned fishing boats.

Big Fool and Fighting Chicken didn't waste any time; they rushed to Stanley that very night, hired a lawyer, and had someone help them register a fishing company.

With money paving the way, things went very smoothly.

By noon the next day, they had received the registration approval and returned to Qianshuitun Village.

Meanwhile, the underlings, along with the boat owners, were waiting at the fish stall for Big Fool and Fighting Cock to return.

Most of the ship owners were unharmed, while a few had bruises and swelling on their faces, clearly having been beaten up.

Big Fool walked into the fish stall and saw the situation inside. A satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

Then, a quick-witted younger brother hurriedly ran up and whispered something in Big Fool's ear.

"What? You said you negotiated forty-odd ships in total?"

Upon hearing his underling's report, Big Fool couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaim in surprise.

As far as he knew, a manual secondhand fishing boat without an engine would sell for at least 10,000 yuan, while one with an engine would cost at least 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.

If that's the case, with forty-odd ships, wouldn't that cost over a million?
"You're talking nonsense! Who told you to hire so many fishing boats? The boss only gave me 300,000, and the company registration alone cost over 10,000. As for the remaining hundreds of thousands, are you going to pay for it?"

"Big Fool, you can't blame us for this. You didn't say how many ships we needed to find. We could only go around talking to people. Who knew we'd end up with so many ships?"

The younger brother felt very wronged when he saw Big Fool get angry.

Is it wrong to work hard?

Big Fool could understand this, otherwise, given his fiery temper, he would have kicked him long ago.

"Alright, alright, you guys tell them to wait a bit. I'll go ask the big boss now and see what he thinks?"

"Um, can I come along?"

Upon hearing that Big Fool was going to meet a new big boss, the underlings all perked up and looked at Big Fool with expectant faces, hoping to go along and make an appearance.

"Fuck off!"

Upon seeing this, Big Fool cursed in annoyance and then hurriedly dragged Fighting Rooster to Li Guoqiang's house.

At the same time, he thought to himself that he hadn't even gotten to know Li Guoqiang yet! How could you lowly bastards possibly have a chance!
Seeing this, the underlings felt a pang of disappointment and could only vent their frustration by shouting angrily at the boat owners in the fish stall.

The ship owners, faced with the shouts and jeers of these scoundrels, dared not utter a word of complaint.

There's nothing we can do; they're all honest people with no power or influence!

If you really anger these thugs, getting beaten up would be the least of your worries. If your family gets involved, then you'll be in big trouble.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so cooperative; when asked to sell their fishing boats, they obediently agreed to do so.

Just as they were feeling a bit uneasy, on the other side, Big Fool and Fighting Rooster hurried along and, after half an hour, finally arrived safely at Li Guoqiang's doorstep.

"Boss."

"Hey, you big idiot, you forgot? The boss doesn't tell us to call him 'boss,' we have to call him 'boss'!"

"Yes, yes, boss, boss!"

"coming!"

Before long, with Big Fool and Fighting Chicken Qiang shouting in turn, the courtyard gate was quickly opened, revealing Li Guoqiang's handsome face.

"boss!"

"boss!"

"Well, what's going on with you guys?"

Li Guoqiang glanced at Da Sha Ge and Dou Ji Qiang, who were covered in sweat, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Um, we have something urgent to report to you."

Big Fool wiped the sweat from his brow and chuckled as he explained.

"come in!"

Li Guoqiang raised an eyebrow, then waved his hand, signaling Big Fool and Fighting Cock Qiang to come in. "Okay!"

Upon seeing this, Big Fool and Fighting Cock Qiang hurriedly nodded in agreement and followed Li Guoqiang into the courtyard.

At this moment, the situation in the yard had completely changed from yesterday. It was not only much cleaner, but there was also an extra animal.
"Holy crap! Big Fool, look! It's an old tiger!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could there possibly be an old... Holy crap, there really is a tiger here!"

Big Fool looked in the direction Fighting Cock pointed and was immediately startled, his legs went weak with fear.

"Ah!"

Seeing Da Sha Ge and Dou Ji Qiang trembling with fear, Li Guoqiang chuckled to himself and explained, "That's not a tiger, it's just a tiger skin."

Tiger skin?

Big Fool and Fighting Cock were stunned when they heard this. Then, upon closer inspection, they realized that it was indeed a tiger skin spread on the stool, and an extremely embarrassed look immediately appeared on their faces.

Then, they couldn't help but look at Li Guoqiang with a hint of admiration.

If yesterday Li Guoqiang casually took out several hundred thousand yuan, showing them his generosity, then this tiger skin, which is over four meters long, is enough for them to feel his domineering presence.

Imagine that in the future, when they go out and introduce their boss Li Guoqiang to others, they only need to mention the tiger skin to easily elevate their status.

This greatly increased their sense of belonging to Li Guoqiang, and they hurriedly followed him into the living room on the first floor.

Immediately afterward, before they could even sit down, they were stunned by a row of stunningly beautiful women sitting on the sofa.

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys better stop drooling! Aren't you ashamed?"

Li Guoqiang waved his hand, signaling Luo Huijuan, Shang Xiuzhen and the others to go up to the second floor first. Then he turned around and saw the lecherous looks on Da Sha Ge and Dou Ji Qiang's faces, and his brows immediately furrowed.

"Oh!"

Big Fool and Fighting Rooster came to their senses, hurriedly raised their hands to wipe their mouths haphazardly, and then looked at Li Guoqiang with the eyes of someone looking at a god.

At the same time, Big Fool finally believed what Fighting Cock Qiang had told him yesterday, because there really were a lot of beautiful women in this house, and they were all super beautiful women.

Unfortunately, all these beauties belonged to their boss, Li Guoqiang.

At most, they could only admire him in their hearts, but they wouldn't dare to have any improper thoughts.

Otherwise, they could probably wait until this time next year to have their family members commemorate their death anniversary.

"Alright, stop standing there like idiots, sit down and let's get down to business!"

Seeing that Big Fool and Fighting Chicken Qiang were keeping their eyes closed and not daring to look at Luo Huijuan, Shang Xiuzhen and the others, Li Guoqiang's expression softened slightly, and then he urged them on somewhat impatiently.

"Um, boss, here's the thing."

When Big Fool saw that Li Guoqiang seemed angry, he didn't dare to sit down and immediately told him what had happened.

Li Guoqiang was quite surprised after hearing this.

He originally thought that Big Fool and Fighting Cock Strong had come to him because they encountered some difficulties and were unable to complete the mission. However, he did not expect that it was because they had found too many fishing boats and did not have enough money.

"Boss, do you think we should spend more money to buy all the boats now, or just buy as many as we can?"

Seeing that Li Guoqiang hadn't said a word, and thinking of the many boat owners waiting at the fish stall, Big Fool finally had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask.

"Wait a minute!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang simply uttered a sentence, then got up and went into the room.

Not long after, he came out carrying a box and placed it directly in front of Big Fool.

When Big Fool and Fighting Cock Qiang saw it, they thought there was money in the box, and they were immediately excited.

Then, when they opened the box, they were instantly stunned.

Inside the box was a huge box full of jewelry and gold, which almost blinded them.

“These things are probably worth seven or eight hundred thousand, enough for you to buy those boats. With the remaining money, you can hire some skilled fishermen for me.”

Seeing the reactions of Da Sha Ge and Dou Ji Qiang, Li Guoqiang felt a slight smirk, and then whispered a few words of instruction.

"Okay, okay!"

Big Fool and Fighting Cock Qiang snapped out of their daze upon hearing this, and then hurriedly nodded in agreement.

In a sense, these jewelry pieces and gold will be more sought after than money, and there will be no shortage of buyers.

Moreover, compared to banknotes, these jewelry pieces and gold are visually more impressive.

Soon, they left Li Guoqiang's house with their suitcases, and before leaving, they made sure to hand over the documents for the already registered fishing company to Li Guoqiang.

Upon seeing the documents, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. He then immediately pulled out two Rolex watches worth over ten thousand yuan from his pocket and rewarded Da Sha Ge and Dou Ji Qiang, making them extremely happy.

Not long after, Big Fool and Fighting Rooster Qiang returned to Shallow Water Village and their old fish stall with proud and arrogant expressions.

"Big Fool, how are you?"

"Big Fool, what did the boss say?"

"Big Silly Bro, is the big boss coming?"

"Big Fool"

Faced with a barrage of questions from his underlings, Big Fool maintained a smug smile. He then walked into the fish stall and, in front of his underlings and the boat owners, placed the box on the table and opened it.

The next moment, a burst of dazzling jewels shone out of the box, leaving everyone present somewhat stunned.

Among them, especially the ship owners.

They originally thought that Big Fool was going to force a sale this time, but they never expected that Big Fool would be able to produce so much gold and silver.

This made them all feel like they were dreaming.

"Alright, now everyone who wants to sell a boat, come over and line up to sign and settle the payment, then I'll have my brother go with you to collect the boat."

Seeing that everyone was still in a daze, Big Fool grinned, then tapped the table with his hand and shouted loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd erupted into a cacophony of noise, like boiling water suddenly boiling over.

"Holy crap, how much money would that cost?"

"Wow, that's awesome!"

"Big Fool, we haven't negotiated the price yet."

"Um, can I take cash?"

"That's right! We can't eat all this gold and silver treasure; we want cash!"

"And the price should be higher!"
