In the car, Liu Xu and Chuiji were in the same car. They occasionally talked to each other and the atmosphere seemed quite relaxed. Chuiji sat in the passenger seat, his hand casually resting on the window, with a faint smile on his lips.

Liu Xu was driving the car attentively, speeding towards Wan Chai.

Following closely behind them were Li Hangluo, Wang Ergou and Chen Dao. Wang Ergou and Chen Dao sat in the back seat of the car, holding the straw sandals handed to them by Xingshu during the inauguration ceremony, with uncontrollable smiles on their faces.

Li Hangluo sat in the driver's seat, his eyes moving back and forth between the road ahead and the passing vehicles, appearing alert and thoughtful. Although there was a smile on his lips, his eyes revealed a deep thought.

Through today's general meeting and the ceremony of inauguration, he deeply felt the undercurrents within the society. Various forces were intertwined to form an intricate network.

He also discovered that there might not be many members of the community who were hostile to them, but there were quite a few who wanted to take advantage of them.

On the surface, the two hall masters, Yutou Biao and Dapuhei, are already eyeing them covetously.

And secretly, Guan Zaishen from Mong Kok, Lok Siu from Jordan and Ba Bi from Causeway Bay were also secretly sizing up at him and the others.

Li Hangluo knew that although these people did not show obvious hostility on the surface, their existence was like a group of cheetahs lurking in the dark, quietly waiting for an opportunity, ready to pounce on their prey at any time.

This hidden danger made Li Hangluo feel a sense of urgency.

Therefore, after finishing today's work, Li Hangluo felt that he needed to find his boss Liu Xu to have a good talk.

The few minutes' drive passed very quickly. It seemed like in the blink of an eye, Liu Xu was already standing in front of the door of Chuiji Hall.

As soon as he entered the Blowing Chicken Hall, his eyes were attracted by a group of people gathered neatly in front of him. At this time, Li Hangluo arranged the personnel for the Zhazhi 49. They were wearing the same black T-shirts.

After several days of boxing and physical training, the brothers' mental outlook looks refreshed, their bodies are stronger, and their temperaments have become more stable.

The ceremony of the Red Stick and the Four Nines have different procedures and meanings. The ceremony of the Red Stick is usually more formal and complicated. It represents the recognition and attention of the society to the member.

The process of initiating a new member is relatively simple, but equally important, as it marks the new member's formal entry into the society.

The inauguration ceremony of Sijiuzi usually goes through a "vernacular drama" ceremony, with a white paper fan giving the new member a "seal", a red stick responsible for recognizing the stage, and the old Sijiu witnessing. The ceremony then ends with the oath, the imparting of hand seals and poems.

Its job is different from that of the red stick. One does not need to go to the San Sheng Temple, but can complete it in the hall to which one belongs.

Liu Xu's gang of younger brothers were so busy that they had no intention of watching the ceremony.

Now Liu Xu himself is the red stick, and Li Hangluo is the white paper fan. He only needs to arrange another old four nine as a witness to complete the whole process of tying the position.

He called Glasses, the experienced old man, and explained the matter to him in detail. Chuiji then went back to his office. The club meeting had interrupted his lunch break, and he planned to make up for it.

After the boss blew the chicken and left, Yan Jing smiled and congratulated Liu Xu: "A Xu, congratulations. You became a red stick in the club so quickly, it's really admirable!"

Liu Xu responded to Glasses' congratulations with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Glasses. This is all the result of the support and hard work of my group of brothers. Without them, I would not be able to achieve what I have today."

After exchanging a few words with Glasses, Liu Xu took a deep breath and began to hold the Sijiuzai inauguration ceremony for his younger brothers.

He followed the traditional process and gave his younger brothers a lecture, telling them to abide by the rules of the society, be loyal to the society and not betray it. The younger brothers nodded one after another, saying that they would keep it in mind.

Then, Li Hangluo, the man with the white paper fan, processed the "seal" for the younger brothers.

Li Hangluo's technique was a little unfamiliar, but he quickly completed this step for everyone. The younger brothers took the "seal" and showed excitement and pride on their faces.

Finally, under the witness of Glasses, Liu Xu led his brothers to take the oath. At this moment, they officially became 49ers and became part of the society. At the same time, it also filled the last gap in Liu Xu's power.

After the ceremony, the younger brothers expressed their gratitude to Liu Xu and presented him with red envelopes. This is a ritualistic expression of joining the society, representing the younger brothers' respect and loyalty to the boss.

Liu Xu accepted the red envelope with a smile. He had no intention of keeping the money for himself. He knew in his heart that these red envelopes were not just money, but also the thoughts of his brothers.

He planned to use the money to invite all the brothers in the territory to get together in the future. They would have a meal and a drink together to enhance their relationship, let everyone get to know each other better, and improve the cohesion of the entire team.

Red stick, white paper fan, straw sandals, four-nine, blue lantern. Liu Xu's power has now officially completed the closed loop.

From the initial dozens of people and one street, to now having eight streets and hundreds of followers, it only took him more than half a month. This made him sigh in his heart, "Travelers with golden fingers really develop quickly."

Next, what Liu Xu needs to do is to upgrade his position in the society from Red Stick to Hall Master, and then to the position of the person in charge of the first district. Only in this way can he truly grasp power and achieve his goals.

He knew that this was not an easy process but was full of challenges and tests.

However, Liu Xu was not unprepared. With some memories and golden fingers brought by his later life, he was confident that he could take the position of the head of the hall within two years.

Liu Xu looked at the time and found that it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon. Not daring to delay any longer, he quickly made arrangements: "A Luo, you take these brothers back to the site. I will take Daozi and Ergou to send my father to the brewery to take up his post."

After hearing Liu Xu's instructions, Li Hangluo nodded and led the others away.

Ergou started the car skillfully. Liu Xu sat in the passenger seat, while Daozi sat in the back seat.

As the car slowly drove towards the village house, Liu Xu couldn't help but feel a little nervous. After all, this was the first time he saw his parents after traveling through time.

Finally, the car stopped at the door of the village house. Daozi and Ergou followed Liu Xu, one carrying firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the other carrying tea, fruit and candy.

This was bought on the way here just now, at the insistence of Daozi and Ergou, who stopped to buy it. After all, it would be wrong to visit one's own old house without bringing some gifts.

For this, Liu Xu also received a traffic ticket, which made him feel a little amused and helpless.

Liu Xu followed the memory of his original body and found the location of his home. He took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in.

The scene before him made him feel a sour feeling in his heart. Those were his original body's parents. Their faces overlapped with the images in his memory, appearing both familiar and unfamiliar.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Liu Xu tried to control his emotions and walked up to greet them. His voice was trembling, but he tried to remain calm.

Father Liu raised his head and saw Liu Xu, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
