Chapter 273: Robbers

Tianlong Restaurant Chengnan Store, next to Baishui District.

At the beginning, Chenggong wanted to open the head office in Baishui District, but because of Qian's obstruction, he could only settle in Chengnan District.

The Seongnam store is positioned as the main store, which has been open for more than three years and has been doing briskly business.

Although it does not have the scale of the Golden Leaf Restaurant Baishui Lake Store, it can also generate a net profit of about 20 million yuan per year, which is the pillar of Tianlong Group.

But now that Chen Jiaban has left Tianlong Restaurant, the business of the Chengnan store is declining, and it has long lost its former glory.

Especially today, the flagship store of Golden Leaf Restaurant, which is not far from the Chengnan store, officially opened, and Chen Bawan, who broke with himself, has become the head chef of the Golden Leaf Restaurant, and the traffic of the Chengnan store of Tianlong Restaurant has suddenly decreased a lot.

It is estimated that those customers who continue to come to dine do not know that a new restaurant has opened nearby, let alone that Chen Jiaban has been stationed in Golden Leaf Restaurant.

Although he tried his best to save and tried every means to hire a famous chef in Hancheng, the general trend has gone, and although he has saved some customers, it still continues to decline as a whole.

Several branches also had a waterloo, and he had to get them to adjust their prices to move closer to the mass market.

Today, the Golden Leaf Restaurant Baishui Lake store opened, in fact, he also went to the scene. However, he sat in the car and did not get out.

When he saw the video of Chen Bawan cooking on the huge LCD screen outside, his face was gloomy, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

He was also unhappy when he saw the grand opening of the Golden Leaf Restaurant Baishui Lake Store, not only him, but also Huang Xinhan, the manager of the Dorsett Hotel Baishui Lake Store.

He also went to watch the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the opening. Originally, he didn't take the Golden Leaf Restaurant seriously in his heart, but when he saw the video playing on the LCD screen and knew that Chen Bawan was the chef here, he felt a certain amount of pressure.

Although catering is not the main business of Dorsett Hotel, Dorsett Restaurant Baishui Lake has always monopolized the wedding banquet and conference meals in Baishui District.

The scale of Golden Leaf Restaurant is fully capable of hosting large-scale banquets and conference meals, and there is Chen Bawan as the chef, which is bound to have a great impact on the catering business of Emgrand Restaurant.

This is not the main thing, the most important thing is that the chairman of the money cabinet group came several times in person, asking him to find a way to prevent the smooth entry of the Golden Leaf Restaurant.

Originally, he thought it was a trivial matter, but he didn't expect it to be messed up in the end, and it also alarmed the top management of Hancheng.

Today's opening has obviously affected the catering business of Emgrand Restaurant. After all, the two are too close to each other, and during the renovation period, many people are waiting.

If the catering business declines badly, not to mention bonuses, even his position as a manager may not be kept.

Their anxiety had no effect, and in the evening, the effects were even more pronounced.

Especially in the evening, the TV station also broadcast the grand opening of the Golden Leaf Restaurant, and the video of interviewing Chen Bawan, Ye Qingqing and others was also broadcast, which was undoubtedly a free advertisement for the Golden Leaf Restaurant.

Online media are also reluctant to miss this piece of news, Hancheng Food Online, the opening of Golden Leaf Restaurant, and the news of Chen Jiaban's strong entry have always been in the headlines.

If this continues, their customer loss will definitely increase.

Sheng Kai didn't expect that the opening of his new store would have such a big impact.

When he returned home, he didn't go to sleep immediately, sent a text message to Ye Qingqing after taking a shower, and then sat on the bed thinking about something.

Before the new store opened, he was thinking about opening it as soon as possible.

Today it opened smoothly, and the problem was revealed.

The most obvious is that the management personnel are not enough, Ye Qingqing, as the chairman and general manager, and the manager of the flagship store, the work intensity is indeed very high.

Especially the manager of the flagship store, it is indeed very tiring.

Another thing is that Ye Li is in charge of finances, and now the turnover of the three stores has to be deposited in the bank every day, and the amount is relatively large.

In addition, the procurement of all ingredients, ingredients and edible oil for the three stores must also be unified, if the three stores act separately, not to mention the increased staff pressure, it is easy to cause confusion in the checkout.

He couldn't sleep at all thinking about these questions.

He knew that Ye Li slept late, so he decided to call him, starting tomorrow, he would collect the turnover, and he would also save it.

Ye Li did not sleep, and after listening to the arrangement of the bloom, he had no opinion.

However, he asked curiously: "Owner, what is the sales of the new store today?"

"730,000 ......"

"So many ......"

He was surprised, and immediately understood the reason for the arrangement.

The combined daily turnover of the three stores is nearly 900,000, and although there is not so much cash, it is at least a few hundred thousand. I have to go to the bank every morning, and I am a little scared.

Early the next morning, Sheng Kai collected the business funds of the three stores, reconciled the accounts with Ye Li, and went to the Kyushu Bank on Xuefu Road.

Still riding his bicycle and carrying his old marching bag from when he had returned from the army, he ran through three districts early in the morning and collected all the cash from the three stores.

Hancheng has a population of tens of millions, each district is not small, and the three districts are not next to each other, and after running three stores, it took more than two hours to pedal a bicycle to go to the bank.

It's not tiring, but it's time-consuming.

When I came to the bank, it was close to eleven o'clock.

There are not many people in Kyushu Bank on Xuefu Road, so Shengkai chose to open an account here. At this time, there were few customers left in the bank.

He parked his bicycle and was about to go in, when he suddenly saw a van parked on the side of the road, the door opened, and four people jumped out of it, got out of the car and ran to the bank at a high speed.

He was surprised to find that the men were wearing black stockings on their heads. Two of them had machetes in their hands, and two others kept their hands in their arms......

Although there was something in the arms of the two people, Sheng Kai judged that it must be a murder weapon such as a pistol.

When he saw this, he already understood what was going to happen in the bank.

He quickly approached the door of the bank, and soon the screams of women and the shouts of several men could be heard from inside the bank, and it was obvious that the sudden appearance of these robbers frightened the people in the bank.

"Don't move!"

A foul voice sounded, followed by a scream, and the bank fell silent.

"If you want to live, don't step on it, think about calling the police!"

"Open the door!"

With a few rough shouts, a snort came out, presumably one of them being beaten.

Sheng Bloom was close to the side of the door, and when she looked inside, she saw a person holding a machete around the neck of a bank worker, escorting her towards the insurance door.

The other two had already taken out the murder weapons in their arms, and sure enough, they were two pistols. One of them pointed to the bank counter and shoved a canvas bag into it for them to fill it with cash.

Another pointed a gun at a dozen people, and the dozen or so people squatted on the ground, holding their heads in their hands, all trembling, not daring to move, not even raising their heads.

In the middle of the hall, there was still a security guard, covered in blood, but still moving, not life-threatening for the time being.

Sheng Kai was very familiar with firearms, and at a glance he knew that these were two homemade pistols.

Just as a man at the counter bent over as if to get the money, a hand crept towards the alarm button.

But he was discovered by the robber who pointed a gun inside, and fired a shot without hesitation, and the man was shot and fell.

Shots rang out, and several other robbers seemed to be in a panic. But when you see the money in your hand, how can you be willing to give it up like this?

Judging by the robbers' stabbing of the security guards and their decisive shooting, this is a group of vicious gangsters.

And now there are at least 20 people in the bank, including staff and customers, who are controlled by them.

Even if you call the police, when the people from the police department come, it is estimated that they have already run away. Even if they don't have time to run, the hostages are in their hands, and there will definitely be a stalemate at that time, and even someone will be killed.

Since he was encountered by himself, of course, it was impossible to stand by and watch this gang of robbers do whatever they wanted here.

But he was unarmed, and the other party had two pistols. Although he is good at kung fu, it is impossible for him to be invulnerable.

The two gun-wielding gangsters were about ten meters apart, and it was a very risky thing to kill them all with their bare hands before they could shoot.

Gunshots were heard in the bank, and pedestrians on the street did not dare to approach and looked inside in panic.

Sheng Blossom looked at the crowd watching from afar, and saw that one of them was wearing work clothes and carrying a toolbox in his hand, like an electrical maintenance worker.

He quietly took a few steps back, quickly came to him and asked, "Master, is there a screwdriver in the toolbox?"

The master nodded in astonishment, and said in full bloom: "Quick, lend me a handful and use it, and I will return it to you later." ”

Although he didn't know what he wanted to do, he was a little panicked at this time and hurriedly opened the toolbox.

Sheng Kai took a medium-sized screwdriver, and then said in a deep voice: "The people inside have guns, don't come close." Also, call the police immediately!"

"Then you ......"

The repairman was suspicious and wanted to ask him what he wanted to do, but after Sheng Kai took the screwdriver, he quickly approached the bank.

He had just seen that the gate of the bank was at least five meters away from the hostage-taker, and although he was sure that he would kill with one blow, he was afraid that he would hurt people again if he shot him.

Moreover, even if he could kill this robber, the other robber would have had time to shoot if he reacted quickly. Although it can't hurt him, it's entirely possible to accidentally hurt others.

He hid the screwdriver in his sleeve, pretended to be a customer who came to the bank on an errand, crashed into it, and then pretended to panic and wanted to turn around and leave.

Sure enough, the hostage-taking robber immediately spotted him, pointed a gun at him and shouted, "Come here, squat!"

More than a dozen people squatting on the ground did not dare to raise their heads, and many of them were crying in fright.

Seeing that someone broke in, they could only say that another unlucky guy had come.

Sheng Bloom pretended to be panicked, and raised her hands to approach the robbers. At the same time, he looked into the crowd, and only one of them was a middle-aged man with glasses, although he was squatting with his head in his hands, and then he raised his head and looked at him.

Sheng Blossom could see that this man was much calmer and more composed than the others, and his eyes clearly told him that he was worried about him.

Sheng Kai's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at him, and then shook his head slightly.

The middle-aged man seemed to understand, and nodded lightly quietly.

Just when he was less than a meter away from the robber, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted. The robber seemed taken aback and immediately turned his head to look.

At this moment, the blooming left hand slashed out like lightning, and the screwdriver hidden in the sleeve slammed into his neck.

His hand holding the gun immediately lost strength, the pistol was released, and it fell to the ground.

Sheng Kai's right hand fished up, just caught it, and raised his hand to shoot.

"Bang" a gunshot, another robber with a gun heard the shout, was turning to look this way, just in time to see his companion was pierced by Sheng Kai with a screwdriver, he immediately raised his gun and prepared to shoot, but Sheng Kai had already shot first.

With the sound of a gunshot, a bloody hole appeared in the center of his eyebrows, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground in a daze.

A gunshot rang out, and the other two robbers immediately turned to look, but the muzzle of the black hole was already pointed at them.

"Put the knife down!"

Sheng Kai said coldly.

But one of them had a knife on the neck of a staff member, and when he saw that his companion had already killed two of them, he immediately hid behind the man, and the machete had already cut a bloody mark on her neck.

"Put down the gun, or I'll kill her!"

The robber said sinisterly.

At this time, the siren was already sounding outside, and he seemed to be a little flustered, and his head was slightly tilted.

Sheng Kai fired without hesitation, and another shot hit the center of the eyebrows, the machete came out of his hand, and the robber fell to the ground.

The other robber was so frightened that he threw away the machete in his hand and crouched down with his head in his hands.

At this moment, a loud shout came from outside the door: "You have been surrounded, put down your guns!"
