Chapter 637 Changing Situation in Long'an
While talking, the old man became busy and roasted sweet potatoes with a smile on his face.
Chen Fei and Lin Qiuhan started chatting with the old man on the side and learned about his situation from the old man.
The old man's surname is Liu, he is a native of Long'an City. He has an old house and a son on the outskirts of Long'an City.
Originally, even if Mr. Liu was not rich in Long'an City, he could live an ordinary life. But the helpless thing was that Mr. Liu's son did not study well since childhood. After graduating from high school, he followed the street gangsters outside and didn't go home at all, let alone make money. He even often went home like an old father asking for money.
It would be fine if you have a bad son, but what's even more tragic is that last year, the old man's wife suddenly became ill and had coronary heart disease.
Uncle Liu took his boss to several hospitals, and finally stabilized his wife's condition. But the family's savings were completely hollowed out with this serious illness.
The family has no savings, but the old couple still has to live. In addition, the wife's illness has not been completely cured, so they have to rely on medicine to continue to recover. Therefore, Mr. Liu had to go out to do things and make money.
However, he was old and had no skill, so he couldn't do anything else. In the end, he had to buy a small stall and sell roasted sweet potatoes on the street. After all, Mr. Liu has taken care of his wife for so many years and his cooking skills are still very good.
Some time ago, the weather turned cold, and Mr. Liu's skills were also good, so there were more people buying roasted sweet potatoes. In addition, passers-by were pitiful to Mr. Liu who was a lot of old and were running around, so he often bought a few more.
In this way, Uncle Liu can earn several hundred yuan a day, and after deducting the cost, he can earn more than one hundred yuan a day. This income is very good for Uncle Liu.
However, the good times did not last long. Mr. Liu's money-making life didn't last long, and some gangsters on the street came to him and asked for protection fees.
Uncle Liu didn't dare to offend them, so he paid them money. But as a result, these gangsters had a bigger appetite, came more and more frequently, and they asked for more and more money each time.
Uncle Liu could not withstand their exploitation, so he had no choice but to change his seat and set up a stall here. However, he didn't expect that he would encounter a gangster who collected protection fees in this place. Moreover, these people were even more ruthless and directly snatched Mr. Liu's wallet.
Fortunately, Chen Fei helped, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
After listening, Lin Qiuhan couldn't help but comfort Mr. Liu with a soft voice.
Chen Fei frowned and his expression became a little cold.
For more than half a year, he was not in Long'an City. Unexpectedly, the chaos in Long'an City became like this.
The young master Xu directly blocked the road and stopped people in a high-profile manner. Now, street gangsters dare to collect protection fees on the street, or even rob them by themselves. They are simply too arrogant.
You should know that when Chen Fei was in Long'an City, Uncle Long managed the order of the Longan underground world. Although there were inevitably various battles and dirty things in the underground world, the general order was still well maintained. People on the Tao still had to abide by the rules on the Tao.
And now, from the young master Xu to the red-haired gangster just now, he was completely unruly and completely wanton.
This situation made Chen Fei very dissatisfied.
Thinking of this, he stood up, glanced at his wife, then walked aside, took out his cell phone, and called Hou Dong.
"Mr. Chen, are you doing something?" Hou Dong said respectfully.
Chen Fei spoke in a serious tone and said, "Hou Dong, I encountered something here, I want to ask you some questions."
Immediately, Chen Fei told Hou Dong what he had just thought.
After hearing this, Hou Dong was slightly silent for a while, and then said, "Mr. Chen, to be honest, the order of the underground world of Long'an City. Since you and Uncle Long left, it has indeed gradually become chaotic."
"Our Longteng Group is considered a big shot in Long'an City. But you, Uncle Long, and Master Wei and other martial arts masters have all gone to the provincial capital. The remaining people are much worse in strength. Our four Heavenly Kings are considered to be strong, and they are only in the middle stage of the Yellow-level."
"At the beginning, relying on your reputation and Uncle Long, we can still maintain the order of the underground world of Long'an City. But as time goes by, people will always find our weakness and will naturally have some other ideas."
"In this way, the order of the underground world of Long'an City gradually became chaotic. Especially a few months ago, after Mr. Xu entered our Long'an City, the situation became more and more chaotic."
"Our Longteng Group can only be regarded as trying to maintain the general situation now, and the situation is not good anymore."
After listening to Hou Dong's story, Chen Fei couldn't help but feel silent. After pausing for a moment, he said, "Since that's the case, I will go back to Long'an City this time to help you solve the matter and stabilize the situation."
"In the future, I will ask Uncle Long and Wei Tian to get some masters from the provincial capital to support the venue. Also, you people from Long'an City should practice diligently and strengthen their strength. If not, go to Wei Tian's martial arts hall collectively for special training."
"Yes, thank you Mr. Chen!" With Chen Fei's answer, Hou Dong suddenly became excited, "Mr. Chen, where are you now? I'll come here right away."
Chen Fei looked at the roasted sweet potatoes next to him, and then said, "Forget it, it's too late today. You come again tomorrow, and you'll make some plans at that time."
"Yes!" Hou Dong said respectfully, then hung up the phone.
Chen Fei put away his cell phone, then walked back to the stall, looking at Lin Qiuhan who was holding a warm sweet potato and grinning, and couldn't help but smile, "I didn't expect you, wife, you like to eat this!"
Lin Qiuhan gave Chen Fei a blank look and explained while eating: "Do you think I've been rich since I was a child! When I was young, my parents had not succeeded in starting a business. At that time, my family's life was also very difficult. It was only after the company got up and the family's life improved. At that time, it was considered delicious to have a roasted sweet potato to eat."
"It turns out that your wife, you suffered so much when you were a child. Then I promise you that you will never let you suffer any more in the future. I will buy you as much as you want to eat," Chen Fei said with a smile.
Next to him, Uncle Liu couldn't help but smile and said, "You little couple have a good relationship, and your life will definitely be happier in the future."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fei broke open the hot roasted sweet potatoes and bit them in big mouthfuls, and smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, your auspicious words! We will definitely be happier and happier."
