Chapter 265: Six out of a hundred
A few people entered the Juxian Hall, and Lei Ding respectfully asked Rong Yuanhang to sit down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info then introduced him to the second Lu Zheng, the third child, the fourth He Dazhu, the fifth Huang Shigui, and the sixth sister Lan Xitian and others.
Seeing that a little maid was changing the cup of tea for Rong Yuanhang, Lei Ding waved her away and said: "How can such a noble person as a prince drink such inferior tea, he is rutted and ...... again" suddenly turned his head to Lan Xitian and said: "Sixth sister, go inside and get my treasured Yuefeng Ganlu!" ”
"Oh, that's good." Lan Xitian took it in response.
Rong Yuanhang smiled slightly: "The Lei Gang Master doesn't need to be too polite. ”
"I want it," Lei Ding said: "It's not a little brother's boasting, that Yuefeng tea is the top product enshrined in the Tang Dynasty Royal Temple, and it is said that Emperor Tang Zu once used it to reward those who have achieved outstanding results in the palace examination." Later, many imperial relatives and eunuchs also came to ask for gifts, but this tea is hard to find, and it is very precious! There are many people who ask for gifts, and the Tang Emperor is not allowed to be quiet, in order to avoid the frying of the courtiers, he once ordered to ban the manufacture of this Yuefeng tribute tea, which caused the people to find thousands of gold. The little brother is also a coincidence to get this half a catty a few taels, this tea tastes extremely sweet and fragrant, you will taste it later, if you like it, the little brother this collection is all filial piety to you. ”
In a moment, Lan Xitian took out the tea and walked over to make it for him personally. A faint fragrance of fat powder came from the woman, and in front of her, Rong Yuanhang inevitably looked at this woman. Because she wasn't in front of her just now, she changed her outfit after a while!
This Lan Xitian has a high bun, a melon seed face, a small nose, pink cheeks, and a pair of red phoenix eyes that look a little foxy. Her clothes are a bit like the women's clothes of the Tang Dynasty, with narrow sleeves and short shirts, floor-length skirts, slow skirts and half-breasted skirts, and the two halves of the white and plump jade peaks in front are very eye-catching. Twisting her orchid fingers, she deliberately bowed down while making tea, revealing her deep furrow.
"Childe, please have tea." Lan Xitian brought a cup of hot tea to him in both hands, her voice was delicate and her eyes were a little seductive.
"Thank you." Rong Yuanhang took the tea and glanced at her strangely. Lan Xitian smiled at him at the corner of his mouth, and then twisted his ass and returned to his seat.
"Cough," at this time, Lei Ding cleared his throat and said: "Son, we don't know each other, you have outstanding martial arts, uproar, and the sun and the moon, you are a genius in the world, a dragon and a phoenix among people!" A young hero like you, Lei admires him so much that he is willing to follow behind you, for cattle and horses, running errands, without complaints, just to get a little fairy on your body! Forehead...... There must be something going on when you come to the Humble House this time, right? If...... If you have someone who is useful, you just open your mouth, and the little brother will definitely go to the soup and die! ”
Lei Ding's sycophants were like a tide, talking endlessly, saying that Rong Yuanhang was a little unable to fight, and said with a smile: "You can really break it!" ”
"Childe, the little one didn't break it, and every word he said was from the bottom of his heart!" Lei Ding immediately stood up and gave him a salute and argued solemnly.
Rong Yuanhang sat there and waved his hand, and said, "Okay, I believe you, so what you said last time is also true?" ”
'Last time', of course, refers to Lei Ding's personal words to him about his intention to give up the position of helper.
Listening to his question, Lei Ding's face showed joy and said, "There is no lie!" Moreover, as long as you are willing to sit in the Long Knife Gang, the six of my brothers and sisters are willing to give 20% dividends to all the industries of the Long Knife Gang...... No, 30% bonus! ”
"Oh?" Rong Yuanhang's heart moved, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to talk about this first, let me ask you, did you encounter any trouble?" Your Chase casino was demolished by my people, why hasn't it reopened yet? Could it be that you are afraid that I will trouble you again? ”
"This ...... Not really. Lei Ding frowned and sighed deeply: "Alas, I am to blame for this, let me tell you the truth......"
Then he elaborated on the long-standing contradiction between the Long Knife Gang and the Golden Snake Gang, and truthfully said the situation he was facing, and there were rumors outside, saying that the leader of the Golden Snake Gang had let it out, and if he didn't hand over the Chase Casino, he would buy the heads of Lei Ding and several brothers around him, and also said that he would sell Lan Xitian to a brothel # as a man, how to do it, full of intimidation. The other party is strong, and several battles have caused the Long Knife Gang to lose soldiers, and many people have died, and the current situation is really desperate.
"The other party wants this Chase casino?" Rong Yuanhang asked puzzledly: "The Datong blockade has been demolished by me, won't he open another one by himself?" Is it necessary to fight to the death for this thing? ”
Lei Ding nodded, before he could explain. At this time, Lu Zheng, the second old man next to him, spoke up and said: "Son, this rattlesnake not only wants the Chase Gambling House, but also the five smoke houses and three green buildings of our gang. And, as you don't know, it's not the venue that's important, it's the casino's license. ”
Among the many industries of the Long Knife Gang, the most profitable is the Chase Casino. This gambling house can bring in about three million taels of silver per month for the Longknife Gang. It is 36 million a year, and of course Lei Ding refuses to transfer such a lucrative business. The point is that people won't let him open it!
The Chase Casino needed to be rebuilt, and every time craftsmen were sent to build a house, the Golden Snakes would send a gang of unidentified thugs to make trouble. All kinds of troubles, wounding and maiming people, and in the end, no craftsman dared to undertake the construction.
The Golden Snake Gang has coveted this gambling house for a long time and has always wanted to take it from Lei Ding's hands, but due to his social connections, it has been easily resolved every time. Running a gambling house is not something that can be opened with money, but it needs to be approved by the government at a higher level, and finally the approval of the highest authority such as the city lord's mansion before it can be licensed to operate.
Because gambling has a certain social harm, the government legislated to limit the number of gambling establishments as early as 1,000 years ago for the sake of long-term peace and stability. Therefore, if an ordinary businessman wants to open a gambling house, it is a difficult thing, and it can be solved not only with money.
Lei Ding's Chase Gambling House, inherited from his father's generation, has been operating on Ti'an Street at North Beach Square Pier for more than 60 years. It is well-known, has an abundant customer base, and has a stable business, so it is a pity that it is now forced to close its doors.
After a general understanding of the situation, Rong Yuanhang was a little moved, everything he did now was aimed at making money, and the camp of the Long Knife Gang was a bit unsightly for him. But no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, and the sand gathers into a tower and gathers the armpits into a fur, not to mention which career is not from small to large? And what he needs is a long knife to help this group of people do things for him.
So after thinking about it for a while, he made a decision and asked, "Gang Leader Lei, what do you mean: If I can help you solve the trouble of the Golden Snake Gang, you will give me a thirty percent bonus?" ”
"Well......," replied Lei Ding with some hesitation, "yes, but ...... If you encounter any strong enemies in the gang in the future, you will have to solve them! He muttered in his heart, since he has received dividends, he has the obligation to escort others, this is an unspoken rule, why doesn't this young man understand? Or did he deliberately not understand?
Rong Yuanhang was silent for a moment, looked around at the people seated, and then said, "I agree, but the conditions have to be changed." ”
"What's the change?" Lei Ding blurted out.
"I have a big appetite, and the piece is: All the properties in the Long Knife Gang, including real estate such as houses and land, I want ninety percent of the shares!"
"What?" Lei Ding's eyes widened.
"It can't be!" Then He Dazhu stood up even more and looked very angry.
The rest of Lu Zheng, Huang Shigui, and Lan Xitian glanced at each other, and they could see the panic in each other's eyes. All thought: Don't you lead the wolf into the room? The Golden Snake Gang hasn't been settled yet, and there is an even more terrifying one? He's a thief!
"Childe, there are thousands of brothers and sisters up and down the gang, you have to keep them to eat? If you open your mouth, you will want to be ninety percent shared, this, this ......" Lei Ding's face was pale, his body trembled, and he didn't know if it was because he was afraid or angry, or both?
"Quiet, what are you anxious about?" Rong Yuanhang said with a cold face.
His invisible majesty suffocated everyone's breath, and they were unconsciously quiet, but full of worry.
Rong Yuanhang glanced at everyone, then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Do you think I'm going to be more than ninety?" Hum! ”
"This ......" Lei Ding broke out in a cold sweat for a moment.
"Let me ask you, what is the total annual income of your gang?" Rong Yuanhang stared at Lei Ding's eyes and asked.
"Well...... Well...... this," Lei Ding hesitated and didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Gang Leader Lei, you disappointed me!" Rong Yuanhang was a little annoyed and said, "Don't worry, I haven't taken this bit of property from your Long Knife Gang in my eyes yet." If you don't believe me, then let's not talk about anything, I'll leave right away! ”
"Don't don't don't ......" Lei Ding waved his hands together, showing a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said: "Childe, I, I don't believe you. Just ......"
"If you believe me, then tell me honestly! I'm most disgusted with hypocrites and treacherous people, and I don't need to cooperate with such people. ”
"Yes, yes,...... Alas, well. Lei Ding paused and said: "The total income of our gang in a year is ......" He turned his head and glanced at Lu Zheng, and replied: "The total income is about 65 million taels of silver every year, I mean before." ”
Rong Yuanhang asked again: "You don't have water in what you say?" Don't exaggerate or underdo it? ”
"There will be no mistake, the money and silver are in and out of my hands." Lei Ding was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't know what he meant by asking.
Rong Yuanhang looked at everyone's expressions again, but there was no voice. He said, "Sixty-five million taels of silver a year, isn't it?" In that case, I won't give you 10 percent, I'll only give 6 percent! But I can hereby promise that the minimum of 6 percent is not less than 70 million taels of silver per year! ”
"What?"
The six of them couldn't understand what he was saying, and they all looked at him with blank eyes.
"Still don't understand?" Rong Yuanhang was stunned and dazed, he smiled and said, "I mean that in the future, the industry of the Long Knife Gang will be managed by me!" All you have to do is do what I tell you to do. Your salary is 6% of the dividends of your own industry, and it is your business how the six of you here divide it. As for the labor materials generated in the operation, the salaries of the children in the gang and other expenses, the public account of the gang is paid. ”
"Childe, you mean...... Won't the 6 percent bonus be less than 70 million taels of silver? Lan Xitian asked weakly.
Although Lei Ding just said the truth, the annual dividend is 65 million taels of silver. But more than half of this needs to be spent on the gods of all walks of life. It needs to be checked up and down every year, not including the salaries, pensions, and miscellaneous expenses of the middle school disciples. Lei Ding left half of the speech, and then talked about the other half depending on the situation, this is where he is cunning.
Rong Yuanhang looked at her and smiled, and replied, "Not bad." If the 6% bonus is actually less than 70 million, then I will pay for you out of my own pocket. If it exceeds 40 million taels, then according to the actual amount, you should take as much as you want, anyway, the six of you will see the six percent of the dividend. ”
"Is there such a good thing? Impossible, right? He Dazhu was straightforward and fast-talking, and he couldn't believe what he said.
"Follow me, anything is possible!" Rong Yuanhang answered him with great confidence. (To be continued.) )
