Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Nightclub Crisis
So many people!?
I originally thought that Liu Yu must not be popular, but I didn't expect that there were so many people who were willing to help him avenge!
This simply shattered my three views, when can so many people be willing to hold such goods!?
"Some of them are Liu Yu's protΓ©gΓ©s......" Zhang Xueqi seemed to see my doubts, and she said flatly, "Some of them are Liu Yu's subordinates, and some are people who have been favored by Liu Yu." β
I couldn't help but say, "In my opinion, Liu Yu is a selfish bastard. β
Zhang Xueqi nodded and said: "He is indeed such a person, but isn't life like this? From childhood to adulthood, you will always have such a few annoying people." They are either self-willed, or self-righteous, or have a bad temper, or have a very failed personality. You always think that this kind of person will definitely fail in life, or they will definitely not make friends. But fate played a joke on you, they have more friends than you and have more successful careers than you, don't they?"
When I think about it, it's a little unbearable for a while.
"Over there at the nightclub, I'll call and say, you can manage the ...... today" Zhang Xueqi said flatly, "If it's okay, then you can go." β
"Thank you. β
I whispered, and walked out of the manor with the discomfort in my heart. I really didn't expect that so many people were willing to avenge Liu Yu.
Wu Gang had been waiting for me outside, and when he saw me come out, his face was suddenly full of excitement: "Brother Zhang, you are out!"
"What did you call me out...... I patted Wu Gang's head and said angrily, "Why do you say it as if I was released from prison, you guy is really unlucky to speak." β
Wu Gang touched his head and smiled at me embarrassedly.
I got into the car and instructed Wu Gang, "Let everyone come to the ward, I have something to say." β
"Okay. β
Wu Gang immediately took out his mobile phone and started to contact, and I felt tired, lay in the car and fell asleep.
When I woke up again, I was already resting on the hospital bed, and the gauze on my body had been renewed. It is estimated that Wu Gang saw that I was asleep, so he carried me into the hospital by himself.
Everyone sat in the ward and waited for me, and after seeing me wake up, Gu Mengjia said gently, "Zhang Xiang, how are you feeling now?"
"Not bad...... I struggled to sit up, and Zhou Lan handed me a bottle of cold sparkling water.
Gu Mengjia's eyes widened, and he hurriedly said, "He is still injured, how can he drink ice?"
"Ice quenches your thirst...... Zhou Lan said with a grin, "Do you think he cares?"
I laughed, took a sip of the sparkling water, and whispered, "There's one thing I want to tell you about, and that's about nightclubs." Right now...... That nightclub already belongs to us. β
"Huh?"
People widened in disbelief and looked at me like they were looking at an idiot.
"It's over, it's over, our Zhang Xiang's brain is broken. β
Zhou Lan hurriedly stretched out her hand and touched my forehead, and couldn't help but say, "It's strange, it's not hot at all." β
I said helplessly, "What, I'm not kidding you." Now the nightclub really belongs to us, and I went to Mr. Zhong to ask for it. β
"I'll go, Brother Zhang, you're too awesome......" Li Dayuan was surprised, "It's all like this, can you still ask for the nightclub?"
I scoffed, "Anyway, this nightclub already belongs to us." I'll tell you more about that later, but I have to be honest, there's no one in the nightclub anymore. We needed to rearrange our duties, and I guess I had to wait until the nightclub...... There are only a few waiters left. β
"Have the management left...... Li Dayuan frowned, "I seem to have understood something, and I smell a trace of abnormal trading from it." β
"Fuck off, idiot...... "I didn't have a good breath," I said, "at most you can only smell a fart, you know, don't interrupt me." I'm going to start with the position of the manager. Regarding this position, I decided to divide it into general manager and deputy manager, of which the general manager was given to Gu Mengjia and the deputy manager was given to Chen Xiaoyu. Mengjia, are you willing to help me?"
Gu Mengjia was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "This ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to manage it. β
I shook my head and said, "No, you've had such a good and successful leadership experience." Although it is said that interlacing is like a mountain, as long as the basic operation is handed over to you, you will definitely be able to do this position well with your ability. And I let Chen Xiaoyu be the deputy manager, on the one hand, I can assist you, and on the other hand, I can solve operational problems. β
Gu Mengjia hesitated for a moment and whispered, "That'...... All right. β
"I'm fine. Chen Xiaoyu also nodded.
I continued: "And then there's the experience of each region, and I hope to have Zhang Xiaoxin as the manager of the silver card, and you just need to follow the rules and regulations that we left behind." Don't think too much about yourself, we'll give you comprehensive rules and regulations, just do things according to that. β
Zhang Xiaoxin nodded and said, "Okay." β
"The manager of the gold card, I'll leave it to Zhou Lan to do ......it," I said softly, "Sister Lan Lan, you must be very confident in this position, right?"
Zhou Lan laughed and said, "That's not it, I'll definitely get it for you easily." β
I said with satisfaction: "Then the regional manager of the platinum card will be handed over to Li Dayuan, and the regional manager of the black diamond card will be handed over to Wang Tianyi." The finance was handed over to Ye Jiajia, and Wu Gang assisted Dahu to do a good job in security. By the way, Dayuan, in addition to the regional manager of the platinum card here, you are also responsible for being the general manager of the bar. β
"Wait a minute!"
Li Dayuan interrupted me, there was obviously a trace of humiliation on his face, and he said to me angrily: "Brother Zhang, I feel very unconvinced! Why is Tianyi my boss? I think you may have just woken up and your brain is not very good, it should be him as the manager of the platinum card, and I should be the manager of the black diamond card, right? No, I absolutely can't accept being inferior to him!"
I explained, "Dayuan, let me tell you the truth, your business ability is good. In fact, when it comes to communication, you can be said to be very good in our group. There are all kinds of observations, even above me. But you also have to pay attention to one question, to be honest, you are too ugly, what if you are asked to be the manager of the black diamond card, and make those black diamond customers uncomfortable?"
"What!?"
Li Dayuan's eyes widened, he looked at me deadly, gritted his teeth and said, "You actually call me ugly!?"
"Brother Zhang is not wrong...... Wang Tianyi said flatly, "Besides, there is a casino on the side of the Black Diamond Card." With your small body, how do you take care of the Black Diamond Card area?"
Zhou Lan also nodded and said, "Dayuan, don't make trouble, we are in the catering service industry." This appearance is very important, and generally speaking, people like you should be thrown into the back kitchen. β
"I ......"
Li Dayuan was so angry that he was a little speechless, and finally could only lower his proud and somewhat reflective head in shame.
After I finished my position, I said softly: "Tianyi's injury can't move around, and I can't go to work for the time being." I feel like I can sit comfortably in my office. Without further ado, the nightclub delay is money, and we'll go now. β
"Brother Zhang, are you sure you don't want to rest for a while......" Wu Gang said with concern, "I think what you need more now is rest." β
I shook my head and said, "No need, you can rest whenever you want, there is no need to lie down in such an emergency." β
"That'...... All right. β
Wu Gang sighed, and then went downstairs to prepare the car. When we arrived at the nightclub, the management was gone.
Even the waiters are a little less, but the impact is not too big.
To my surprise, all the foremen were gone, except for the foreman I had rescued. As soon as he saw me coming, he immediately ran to me and said with some surprise: "Brother Zhang, I heard that the nightclub is now under your control?"
I nodded, "yes, why didn't you leave?"
"They all said they wanted to leave, but Brother Zhang was kind to me, I can't ......go," he said seriously, "You were the one who saved me and my girlfriend in the first place, and I am very grateful." And now that you're in charge of a nightclub, if the old people are gone, how troubled will you be to run it?"
I patted him on the shoulder appreciatively and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I remember." After a while, you find a few good people, go to the platinum card area to find Manager Li Dayuan, and promote him to the foreman. In addition, if there are any siblings around who need to work, you can let them come to work here. β
He nodded vigorously, "Okay." β
I hummed and took the elevator to my new office.
It was originally Feng Yiling's office, but now it is completely empty, only desks and chairs remain.
I sat on the office chair, and Wu Gang whispered to me, "Brother Zhang, I'm going to get a computer for you?"
"It's okay......" I nodded and said, "Let Li Dayuan handle the business matters, this guy was just kicked into a concussion anyway." I'll tell you the truth, his head is so bald, if he doesn't show some ability, wouldn't he be sorry for his image?"
"I always think that bald people should be smarter...... Gu Mengjia also nodded and said, "When I was a child, I watched cartoons or TV series or something, aren't those doctors all bald?"
Wu Gang nodded again and again: "Yes, if you don't have that brain, isn't it white and bald?"
"Fuck off...... Li Dayuan said angrily, "Go to work, grass your uncle, talk about other people's baldness all day long." Isn't that interesting? I'm going to ask you, is that interesting? If talking about my hair makes you happy, it just means that you're a bunch of bastards who like to base their happiness on other people's pain, you know?"
We saw that Li Dayuan seemed to be really angry, so we didn't continue the discussion. It just so happened that on this first day of taking over the nightclub, there was definitely a lot to do. Everyone started to take stock and deal with the situation, and I sat in the office to rest.
What I want to do is the most important thing in a nightclub.
Casino on the top floor.
That's the highest source of revenue for nightclubs, and the rest of the revenue is negligible compared to this casino.
I'm not Feng Yiling, and I don't plan to use medicine to get those rich people to stuff all the money into my pocket. After all, in my current situation, I definitely can't make a deal with sharks.
I went to the casino alone to take a look, and it was a large box in the black diamond card area on the top floor, and there were all kinds of games in it. Customers usually save money with me, and each customer has his own amount of money, and the money Feng Yiling didn't move when he left. Because if she dares to move, she will not be against me, but against those noble guests.
I opened the casino's computer and checked the records, and I saw that there were more than 200 of us, and they had tens of figures in the amount of money they had here!
Looking at so much money, I couldn't help but swallow my spit, and even wanted to sneak the money away.
But I knew I could never do that. With so many powerful people, it would be easy to kill me!
The casino is open from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m., for a total of seven hours. When the hours of business were approaching, I put on a clean suit and prepared to greet the guests.
When seven o'clock arrived, there were suddenly more people in the Black Diamond Card area. A group of waiters who specialize in working here hurriedly came over to serve tea and water to the distinguished guests, and it was only seven o'clock when more than a dozen guests came.
The guests were all sitting in their chairs chatting and didn't start playing. I thought I would like to say hello to the guests, so I smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to introduce myself." I'm the new owner of the nightclub, my name is Zhang Xiang. β
"We know who you are...... a lady said slowly, "Mr. Zhang, please take out my money here." β
"Huh?"
I didn't react at once, and looked at the lady blankly. And she took a sip of tea and looked calm, as if she was saying something very ordinary.
"Is it because of our poor service...... "Why would you choose to withdraw money if you have a good time here?"
At this time, a man said indifferently: "Since Mr. Zhang wants to ask, then let's talk about it directly." In the past, everyone played here, and it wasn't about enjoyment and service. To be honest, these things can be bought with money. The reason why we are playing here is to be safe and at ease. The previous boss Feng Yiling, although the power is not very large, the relationship is not bad. And what about you? What connections do you have? Can you guarantee that we won't have an accident with you?"
I was a little speechless for a while, because my connections were indeed not as strong as Feng Yiling's.
"If you want to start, you have to have a relationship that can control the scene, you Zhang Xiang is from out of town, and you have ......zero connections here," the man said slowly, "You can be optimistic about a nightclub at most, but you can't see this casino well." What if everyone is having fun and suddenly gets caught?"
I whispered, "I'll find a way to solve this, and I ask you not to withdraw your investment yet." β
"Resolved?"
The lady sneered and asked me with a little disdain, "How do you solve it?" Where do you go to open your network?"
I took a deep breath, if things went this way, it would be really troublesome.
I thought about it for a moment and whispered, "I understand everyone's thoughts, and I respect your choice. I, Zhang Xiang, have just arrived, and I don't have much ability here. But I promise that now that I've taken over the farm, I'll find a way to make it the best it can be. Please give me a chance, after all, nightclubs are places where you have been playing for a long time, and if you change places, you may not be able to adapt to them, right?"
"Then we'll get straight to the point......" the lady said calmly, squinting slightly, "we can give you a chance, but only three days at most." This is what our group of people discussed, and I don't know what the other customers think. Within three days, if you don't have the ability to protect the field, then we will withdraw the investment. β
I gasped, three days was too short.
But judging by the attitude of this group of people, it seems that they have no intention of compromising at all. I knew that it was difficult to ride a tiger at the moment, so I gritted my teeth and said, "Okay, just three days." β
"Interesting...... she said with great interest, "there is a rumor on the road that Liu Yu was killed by you. I'd like to see what you're capable of as a young man. β
With that, she stood up and walked outside. And after she stood up, these guests also left one after another.
It's not just these guests, but tonight I saw the lukewarmness of business.
Until twelve o'clock in the morning, there were only a few people playing in the store. According to the waiter who had been working here, it was the worst situation in history. If this continues, the casino will definitely not be able to continue operating.
I called the waitress who was in charge of serving the casino on weekdays, and couldn't help but ask, "Who usually helps Mr. Feng cover this casino?"
"There are a lot of people who can cover it, and it's usually Mr. Zhu's ...... who covers it," the waitress explained, "He and Feng are always cousins, so I'm willing to help cover them." Mr. Zhang, let me say, according to the current situation of the casino, I am afraid that many people are unwilling to come forward to help you. Even if you want to find it, you have to find someone who has nothing to do with Mr. Feng. β
I frowned and said, "You've been working here for a long time, so you should be familiar with it." Tell me, who do you think can stop this scene?"
"Ah, I think so......" The waitress thought about it very seriously, and then whispered, "There is someone who can help you, called Chi Yaxin." He is in charge of this part of the white road, and he has had a conflict with Mr. Zhong before, and the well water on both sides does not interfere with the river water. If you go to Chi Yaxin, maybe he is willing to help. β
Chi Yaxin......
"Maybe I can make an appointment with him......," I frowned, "and if I could ask him to help, I would be relieved." β
The waitress said in a slurching voice, "Mr. Zhang...... Let me think about whether there is anyone else...... This Chi Yaxin is very greedy, if you go to him, you will definitely be opened by the lion. At the beginning, Mr. Feng went to look for him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for fifty percent. After that, Mr. Feng had no choice but to find his cousin, so he gave her cousin 20%. β
"Then I'm going to a meeting......" I smiled, "maybe, this Chi Yaxin can help me!"
The waitress was baffled by what I said, and I asked her if she knew how to contact Ji Yaxin, and she said that of course she didn't.
So I asked Li Dayuan for help, because this guy can always think of a way in this regard. Don't say it, I just told him less than half an hour, and he helped me get Chi Ya's new office location.
I thanked Li Dayuan well, and the next morning, I asked Wu Gang to drive me to Chi Yaxin's office.
Because I came early in the morning, I didn't need to make an appointment at all, so I met Chi Yaxin directly.
He looked at the thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people a righteous look, which really made people unable to associate it with greed. At this time, he probably hadn't recovered from work yet, rubbed his eyes and asked me, "Who are you?"
"Hello Mr. Chi, I'm Zhang Xiang......" I quickly introduced myself, "It's the new owner of Dynasty Nightclub." β
"Oh, I know you'......" Chi Yaxin nodded, "What's the matter?"
I smiled and said, "I won't talk about celebrities, Mr. Chi should know that I didn't have a good time with Feng Yiling, right?"
Chi Yaxin yawned and said slowly, "I know." β
"I have a field here......," I whispered, "Feng Yiling is gone, and the people who originally covered the field will definitely not be happy." Didn't I find another way out and found Mr. Chi, your big tree? I just want to say that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, can Mr. Chi let me lean on it for a while? Of course, the price is negotiable. If you say what you want in your heart, I will definitely think about it. β
Chi Yaxin nodded, and said without raising his eyelids: "Okay, then it's free." β
Ga?
Gratis!?
