Chapter 524 How Many People
After Zhang Fengkai nodded, he did not follow Ning Yuan to ask him what he wanted to ask. Instead, he stood up and called a few waiters who were still gathered in a distance, asking them to comfort the guests present.
Then he walked to the front desk and urged people to serve the food to Ning Yuan and his two tables of guests.
He was also keeping an eye on this side, so the speed at which the dishes were served in the kitchen was almost outrageous.
Those who arrived earlier than Ning Yuan and his friends did not receive their food as quickly as they did.
It only took about ten minutes for almost all the dishes they ordered to be served. Dishes that originally took a long time to prepare, such as red soup, seared steak, etc., were also quickly served to Ning Yuan and his friends' table.
I don’t know which table ordered in advance and was snatched away by Ning Yuan and his friends.
After all the dishes were served, with even a few extra dishes, Zhang Fengkai hurriedly came to Ning Yuan's table with two bottles of red wine.
Seeing Zhang Fengkai coming over, Tian Erliang immediately moved to the side and made a space for Zhang Fengkai.
He is not an outsider, and Zhang Fengkai has been dealing with Ning Yuan for a long time, and they are in a cooperative relationship. Even if he may be more begging Ning Yuan, he will not be so servile to Ning Yuan.
All along, the feeling between the two of them was similar to that of "I'm fine, you're fine, everyone's fine".
In other words, Ning Yuan's repeated conflicts in Sijiu City made him more and more powerful, and his actions became more and more ruthless, which made Zhang Fengkai gradually feel a little more in awe of him.
At this moment, after Zhang Fengkai sat down, he put the wine directly on the table and motioned everyone to have a taste.
Fatty Fan got up to get the wine, but Zhang Fengkai looked at Ning Yuan and asked.
"Brother Ning, if there's anything you want to know, just tell me directly. How can I hide anything from you?"
Ning Yuan saw that Fatty Fan had already poured wine into his and Zhang Fengkai's glasses, so he picked up the glass and gestured to Zhang Fengkai.
Zhang Fengkai also quickly picked up his wine glass, and the two of them clinked glasses and took a sip each.
Ning Yuan then put down his wine glass and said to Zhang Fengkai.
"Old Zhang, what's going on over there in Gonggehui recently? I heard that a lot of people have come into the city recently. You have a lot of information here, so tell me about it."
Ning Yuan didn't say this deliberately to praise Zhang Fengkai.
It is indeed true. Judging from the classification of the dining crowd in Lao Mo's restaurant and Zhang Fengkai's versatility, it is no exaggeration to say that in this city, except for top secrets, there is nothing that Lao Zhang doesn't know!
So, this is one of the reasons why he chose Lao Mo between Donglaishun and Lao Mo.
After hearing Ning Yuan's question, Zhang Fengkai smacked his lips, not knowing whether he was savoring the taste of the bottle of red wine or thinking about what to say.
In short, after completing the little action, Zhang Fengkai laughed and then spoke generously.
"I guess you're asking about that, too. Courtyard No. 2 in Shen District, right? The day before yesterday, I heard Director Wang Zhi, formerly of the Propaganda Department, mention the courtyard near your home."
Ning Yuan continued to listen without expressing his opinion. After all, he had no idea who this so-called crappy Wang Zhi was, and he wasn't even interested in knowing who he was.
Looking at Ning Yuan's expression, Zhang Fengkai continued.
"That night, he brought about thirty people to the restaurant for dinner. Strangely enough, more than half of them were wearing work uniforms. This had never happened before!"
"I'm kind of acquainted with Wang Zhi, so after chatting with him for a while, I happened to hear them say that a lot of people were killed in your No. 2 Courtyard!"
Zhang Fengkai knew that there was nothing special about Courtyard No. 2. Several small private auctions had been held in Courtyard No. 2 before, and he had been there several times. Moreover, when Ning Yuan got married some time ago, he not only provided a car for Ning Yuan to use, but also sent a gift.
That's why he paid extra attention to it when he heard this group of people talking about Courtyard No. 2 that day.
Ning Yuan nodded after hearing what Zhang Fengkai said, which was basically the same as what Zoucheng Tian Erliang and others heard from Zhong Yuemin's father. However, this was not what he cared about at the moment, so he interrupted and asked.
"Lao Zhang, I know all this. I just want to ask, how many workers have come in? What have they been doing recently?"
Ning Yuan's words really stumped Zhang Fengkai. After all, he had only heard those people praising each other at the dinner table.
But Zhang Fengkai had indeed inquired from many sources, so he had some information, but he couldn't guarantee the truth of this information.
After thinking about it, Zhang Fengkai said it out loud.
"Brother, I'll tell you the truth, I don't have an exact number of how many workers came. A lot of this information is hearsay, so you have to judge for yourself!"
Ning Yuan nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"That day, I saw people from Gong, Ge, Hui, and others brought in nearly twenty people in work uniforms. I guess those who were able to be brought here to eat are all the heads of various factories."
Zhang Fengkai didn't continue speaking, but looked at Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan also understood what Zhang Fengkai meant. If one person really represented the strength of an entire factory, then these twenty people would be almost twenty main factories.
You have to know that the big factories during this period were extremely large.
Every large factory almost has its own ecosystem. It is no exaggeration to say that they can have their own residences, canteens, hospitals, schools, etc.!
A factory may employ tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.
In this case, how many people could come from the twenty factories? Ning Yuan felt a little nervous.
Not because of fear, but because of the unknown.
This is really impossible to guess. The upper and lower limits are the same, both are like bottomless pits.
The number predicted by Lu Xiangqing and Ning Wanli is close to the lower limit, with one factory having one hundred core personnel, which is about two thousand people.
In fact, we can't say they are wrong. After all, there has been a precedent before, and it has basically remained around this number.
That's why they planned to rely on Ning Wei's buddies, plus more than 800 people directly transferred, to prepare for a fight.
However, I didn’t expect that the number of people coming was nearly three times the number of others. How could we handle it?
This is the problem that Ning Yuan is worried about now. His guess is not accurate. Later records and documents even said that most of the power of some factories came directly in.
What the hell is that? Twenty factories, one hundred thousand people?
Of course, it’s not as crazy as the final stage now, so just fold it in half, fold it in half, and fold it in half again!
More than 10,000 people?
But this number also made Ning Yuan a little depressed. He turned his head to look at his table and the table next to him. There were thirteen people in total!
One against a thousand?
