After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 48: Red Gang Tailor
Qiao Suiqing usually eats in the cafeteria at the station.

Because I don’t work much in the morning, I often skip breakfast.

Zhou Haoran is not able to do that.

He has to get up early.

This morning, he went downstairs to buy a batch of cookies and soy milk.

After returning home, I found Qiao Suiqing still sleeping in.

With the cover of the bed curtains, privacy is better protected and you can sleep in more peacefully.

Zhou Haoran put breakfast on the table before officially leaving.

Get in the car and go back to the county!

Today is the day to apply for admission.

There's nothing to hesitate about.

Fudan University was my first choice, University of Finance and Economics was my second choice, and University of Science and Technology was my third choice.

They are all local colleges and universities in Haigang.

Half of the students in the class applied to local universities.

"Zhou Haoran, what's going on with the book-selling project?"

The class beauty Chen Zixuan came over and whispered.

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "Did Dongfang tell you?"

Chen Zixuan nodded slightly, "Is this true?"

Zhou Haoran said: "It's true, do you want to participate?"

"I wanted to try it. He said it would be a social business practice activity and it would be meaningful to participate."

Chen Zixuan is a petite girl and a little timid.

I want to take this opportunity to train myself.

Zhou Haoran said, "Okay, then let's join. Who among us will join?"

Chen Zixuan whispered, "It seems that Wang Wenrui, Li Yang, Tian Yueran and others all have it."

"Then go!"

Zhou Haoran didn't quite understand what he meant.

Chen Zixuan blushed a little and said embarrassedly: "Zhou Haoran, you have a good relationship with Dongfang Lang, can you help me say something to him?"

"say what?"

"I just treat him as an ordinary friend. The one I like is Wang Wenrui."

"what?"

Zhou Haoran's forehead was filled with black lines.

How can Wang Wenrui compare to Dongfang in terms of his miserable appearance?

How could he be liked by the class beauty?

Are you attracted by Wang Wenrui's family's money?
Chen Zixuan whispered, "The day before yesterday, Dongfang Lang confessed his feelings to me, and I don't know how to tell him. I'm afraid that joining this book-selling project will deepen his misunderstanding."

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "It's okay, leave it to me, I'll talk to him!"

I can only mourn for Dongfang in my heart.

But, there's nothing to regret.

Even though Chen Zixuan was the class beauty, she wasn't exactly the most beautiful. Once she got to college and was looking for a date, she'd go to the drama and music schools every day. There were so many beautiful girls around! Who knows, she might even hook up with a future star!

Zhou Haoran has something to do today.

After filling out the application form, I left immediately.

Go home and change into formal clothes.

It’s about to start his first day of signing contracts independently!
Yesterday, when he was doing business with Ye Hongyun, he noticed it.

On the way to the sanitary napkin factory, I saw an electric kettle factory called "Oriental Thermal Technology Co., Ltd.". It seemed quite formal and I thought I might try my luck there.

I had just put on my suit, shirt and leather shoes, and was about to go out with my briefcase in hand, when I saw a group of people running towards me from the alley.

Dongfang Lang was at the head of the group, and behind him were familiar figures: Wang Wenrui, Li Yang, Guo Zhiyuan, and two girls, Tian Yueran and Chen Zixuan.

They are all classmates in high school.

"Ouch!"

"Wow!"

"Zhou Haoran, aren't you so handsome?"

It was the first time for these students to see Zhou Haoran wearing a suit. They all started shouting and rushed over to surround him.

Tian Yueran said quickly, "Zhou Haoran, Dongfang Lang said you have to work during the holidays and won't be able to sell books with us. I didn't believe it at first!"

Wang Wenrui asked, "Where are you going?"

These were all classmates he had a good relationship with, so Zhou Haoran didn't hide anything and said with a smile, "I'm interning at Red Star TV, working as a salesperson there. I'm going to go do some sales work now."

"Sales?" Wang Wenrui came from a wealthy family and had seen the world. He slapped his thigh and said, "That's great! Why would we still need to sell books? Wouldn't it be better to just go with you and sell advertising for TV stations? Wouldn't that be more valuable as training?"

Chen Zixuan was very surprised and asked: "Zhou Haoran, have you really joined Red Star Channel?"

Li Yang and Guo Zhiyuan also found it hard to believe.

You asked one question after another.

Dongfang Lang made a downward gesture and said, "Haoran really went to the TV station to be a salesman. That's one thing. Second, we can't go on sales trips with him. Look at his suit, it costs over a thousand! We don't have suits or leather shoes, and we haven't received any training. We should just focus on selling books."

Chen Zixuan's eyes widened with curiosity, "Zhou Haoran, is this suit of yours really worth several thousand?"

Wang Wenrui reached out and touched it. "No way? It feels like it's made in China."

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "Yes, it's made in China, Shanshan suit."

Wang Wenrui curled his lips and said, "The suit I wore at the graduation speech was from Pierre Cardin, a well-known international brand."

Chen Zixuan pursed her lips and said, "Well, I think your suit is more upscale than Zhou Haoran's."

Wang Wenrui said proudly: "But, that suit of mine cost over 4,000 yuan. My brother bought it for me!"

"Is your brother rich?"

Chen Zixuan looked envious.

Wang Wenrui boasted with a grin, "My brother and someone else started a company... Bird, you know that? Bird pagers, a famous domestic pager brand!"

Zhou Haoran found it a little funny.

When a group of classmates get together, even their pretense is so simple and unpretentious.

Dongfang Lang was a little angry. "Zhou Haoran's suit is not bad either. It has a legacy. He's from... the Red Gang tailor! He's very famous too!"

"What is a Red Gang tailor?"

Chen Zixuan had never heard of it.

Dongfang Lang couldn't explain it and looked at Zhou Haoran.

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "The Red Gang tailors, the main body is the Red Gang... I don't know the Red Gang, but everyone has heard of the Green Gang, right? They used to dominate Huangpu Beach!"

Li Yang said: "I know, Xu Wenqiang! Feng Jingyao!"

Dongfang Lang said, "Xu Wenqiang is a farce. Xu Wenqiang is a fictional character. The big bosses at Huangpu Beach are Huang Jinrong, Du Yuesheng, and Zhang Xiaolin."

Zhou Haoran said, "Yes, that's them. The Green Gang developed in Huangpu Beach back then, while the Red Gang originated in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas. The Red Gang set their sights on the wealth of Huangpu Beach and wanted to move south to seize territory. So the Red Gang and the Green Gang started a fierce battle. Most of the Red Gang's business was stopped and they were not allowed to move south. Only the Red Gang tailors entered Huangpu Beach, specializing in making suits..."

Before he could finish his words, a burst of shouting and cursing came from the alley.

"Zhou family boy! Shut up!"

These high school classmates who were laughing and joking suddenly became quiet.

Follow the sound.

He was an old man who looked to be in his eighties, lying in a rocking chair, holding a palm-leaf fan in his hand and a radio in his arms.

It was Grandpa Zhang, the oldest man in the alley!
Zhou Haoran didn't dare to offend this person.

He remembered seeing Grandpa Zhang with a tattoo on his back when he was a child!

Maybe he was a member of the Red Gang or the Green Gang during the Huangpu Beach struggle.

"Come on, come inside, I'll tell you how to sell books!"
