After reaching a preliminary cooperation intention, General Tie Cha couldn't help but ask, "So how much money does Mr. Gu plan to invest?" ”

Gu Weiqi muttered: "According to my plan, the initial investment is 20 million US dollars, and I will first invest in the construction of a cinema chain with no less than 20 theaters and no less than 500 seats each in Bangkok. Based on the current level of consumption in your country, it is estimated that 20 million US dollars should be more than enough, right? ”

"$20 million?" General Tiecha's eyes lit up when he heard this.

According to the approximate exchange rate of 1:20 between the Thai baht currency and the US dollar, which is 400 million baht, this is definitely a lot of money for him. It's just a pity that the money is not for him, but for investing in theaters. However, when he heard that Gu Weiqi was going to invest so much money, he couldn't help but have a greedy thought in his heart. I thought that if I could cut a little from the 20 million US dollars, I would be able to temporarily relieve the urgent need for my own legion's salary.

"That's right, when the theater chain is profitable, I will continue to make additional large investments. My plan is to build at least 500 cinemas in your country within the next 10 years. ”

Gu Weiqi changed his words and said, "But before the official investment, I want to see how strong your army is?" It's not that I don't believe in General Tiecha's strength, it's just that we have an old saying in China, saying that hearing is false, and seeing is believing. I don't know what General Tiecha thinks? ”

"This ......" General Tie Cha groaned slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, in order to show my sincerity in cooperating with Mr. Gu, I will take you to see my warriors." Yana, don't go, go talk to your sister, you haven't been here these days, she misses you a little. ”

Princess Yana was feeling bored, after all, she couldn't understand the cooperation project that Gu Weiqi and Tie Cha had discussed, so when she heard this, she stood up and said hello to Gu Weiqi and left.

Then General Tie Cha led Gu Weiqi and his party out of the hall and slowly came to the wide training ground, only to see thousands of soldiers with loaded guns and live ammunition and camouflage uniforms standing solemnly and upright like benchmarks, waiting for General Tie Cha's review.

Gu Weiqi narrowed his eyes and looked intently, only to see that they were all sharp-eyed, holding their heads high, and full of energy, it was obvious that these were the elite soldiers of the "Lion Army". They are all filled with the aura of killing, this kind of aura is naturally not felt by ordinary people, but he has practiced all year round, and his five senses are keen, especially if he has really killed people, he is very sensitive to murderous aura.

Just when Gu Weiqi was looking at these soldiers, General Tie Cha had already led everyone to the front of these soldiers, and suddenly shouted: "Lizheng!" ”

Swish! The soldiers, who were already standing as a benchmark, straightened their waists with the orders of General Tiecha, showing excellent military discipline.

"Look to the left!"

"Look ahead!"

"Tell me, who are you?"

"We are the best 'Lion Legion' warriors!"

"Good, good!" General Tie Cha nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to look at Gu Weiqi and said proudly, "How is Mr. Gu?" ”

Gu Weiqi smiled faintly: "It seems to be pretty good." ”

"So let's talk about the specific matters related to the joint investment in theaters, right?"

"That's exactly what I mean."

Then General Tie Cha left the training ground with Gu Weiqi and his party and returned to the living room. After more than two hours of discussions, the two finally negotiated the general matters.

According to General Tiecha's meaning, because he has a lot of power in Taibang, black and white, especially in Bangkok, he has a wide range of contacts, so he proposed that Gu Weiqi directly allocate 20 million US dollars to him, and he will send someone to handle the specific site selection and construction of the theater.

Gu Weiqi thought about this proposal and agreed, he didn't know that the other party would definitely deduct part of the $20 million to the other party. However, the family is well-connected and powerful, especially with the Thai royal family, and Gu Weiqi needs to use the other party's power and connections to develop a cinema line in Taibang, knowing that the other party is fighting this idea, he has to agree. After all, he is not familiar with life in Taibang, and being able to let this local snake handle everything can also save him a lot of effort.

But Gu Weiqi was not stupid, he did not give him all the money at once, and after signing the written contract documents, he only gave him 10 million US dollars, that is, 200 million baht. When part of the theater is completed, that is, when the actual results are seen, the remaining $10 million will be allocated to him.

General Tiecha also agreed, and after transferring the funds to the other party's account, the general became more affectionate, and left Gu Weiqi and the others to have a sumptuous dinner that night.

However, when the dinner was almost over, the general came up with Gu Weiqi's idea again, saying that he had been fighting wars for many years and the military budget was tight, and he hoped to borrow some money from Boss Gu to solve his urgent needs.

Gu Weiqi laughed and said that the funds in his hands are not sufficient at present, otherwise he would directly call all the US dollars of 20 million invested in theaters, which can be regarded as prevarication. Then he changed his mind, instead of borrowing money to strengthen the other party's power, why not build an army in Taibang? The more he thought about it, the more interesting he felt.

If you can build an army yourself, then you can not only protect the industries invested in Taibang in the future, but also enrich the comprehensive strength of the "Dragon King Mercenaries". It can be said that it is a double win. Especially now the "Dragon King Mercenaries" led by Tang Bo have recently recruited a lot of retired soldiers from all over the world, if they are all in Xiangjiang, sooner or later there will be a big mess, and some of them will be dispatched over, which can not only pull up an armed force at any time, but also solve the hidden dangers of Xiangjiang, why not? Moreover, the formation of an armed force in Taibang is also a long-term strategic layout for the future, which can be said to be of great significance.

After making up his mind, Gu Weiqi drove Meng Chai and Alice back to the hotel after dinner. When he got to the room, he told the two of them about the preparation for the formation of an armed force in Taibang. The two of them agreed on this matter. After all, if you have your own armed forces, then the profit income of the theater chain will naturally not have to be shared with General Tiecha.

Considering that this matter is very important, in order to prevent the hotel's phone from being tapped, Gu Weiqi did not call Tang Bo, so he directly told Alice what he meant, and sent her back to Tang Bo to discuss, and asked him to send some people over to secretly form an armed force. After all, as an outsider, it is not easy to gain a firm foothold in Taibang, and it is better to be cautious in the early stage, and when the power is strong in the future, it doesn't matter how you do it.

However, there are things about following up on the investment and construction of theaters, but they need to be taken care of by professional managers, so Gu Weiqi called Xu Yanbing and asked her to send a few theater management staff over. The boss here spoke, and Xu Yanbing naturally agreed, saying that a meeting would be held immediately and a few people would be selected.

At the same time, General Tiecha also sent people within the sphere of influence to take down ten shops with very good geographical locations at ultra-low prices by strong means. After all, Gu Weiqi's remaining $10 million will only be called to him after seeing the actual results, and he has to work hard.

Of course, Gu Weiqi doesn't care what he does. Anyway, he paid for it, and all that remains is to see the results. As for the process, that's not his concern. And the owners of those shops dared to be angry in the face of General Tiecha's strength, so they had to obediently take the pitiful money roll and leave the shop.

The next day, Alice took a plane back to Xiangjiang, and Meng Chai was also sent by Gu Weiqi to collect information on some small legions, mainly to prepare for the next formation of the armed forces. According to his idea, wait for Tang Bo to send someone over, first annex some small legions, and then slowly grow stronger.

After arranging the two, Gu Weiqi was idle, so he called Princess Yana and asked her to come out to play. This princess has the status of a royal family, if she can get her hands on it, it will undoubtedly have some more security and help for the future industrial investment in Taibang.

Princess Yana was in a daze in the palace, and after receiving Gu Weiqi's call, she drove over quickly.

Although Gu Weiqi has been in Taibang for several days, he has not visited the scenery of Taibang in order to do business. Now that the business is done, he proposes to let Princess Yana take him around to have fun. The other party readily agreed, and then took him to visit Bangkok's more famous "Golden Mountain Temple", "Crocodile Pond", "Siam Square", "Grand Palace", "Chulalongkorn University" and other places of interest.

According to Her Royal Highness the Princess, Bangkok was originally a fishing village, and when the Thonburi Dynasty arose, some small markets and settlements gradually formed here, and in 1767, the old capital Ayutthaya was captured and completely destroyed by the Burmese Army, and the Thonburi Dynasty established its capital in Thonburi, west of the river. After more than 300 years of development, it has formed the current Taibang Zhengzhi, economic and cultural and commercial center.

The two toured until dusk, and then returned to the hotel, Gu Weiqi in order to soak this princess, very coquettishly asked the hotel to prepare a romantic candlelight dinner, ordered a table of delicacies in the huge private room hall, it seemed very emotional.

Princess Yana didn't expect Gu Weiqi to prepare a candlelight dinner for her, and she waved all the guards who couldn't leave an inch and drove outside. After all, having them will undoubtedly ruin the dining atmosphere for two people.

Now there are only two people left in the entire private hall, Gu Weiqi sat down next to Princess Yana with a smile, poured two glasses of sweet coconut wine, put a glass in front of the other party, and said himself: "I heard that Taibang's coconut wine tastes very good, I've been here for so long, and I've never drunk it, I don't know what it tastes like?" Can the princess have a drink with me? ”

Princess Yana picked up her wine glass, sniffed the sweet taste of the wine intoxicatedly, and said with a smile: "Our coconut wine in Taibang is indeed a good wine, and you can feel the sun and the smell of the beach when you close your eyes after taking a sip. But I'm not very good at drinking, so I'll just have a drink. Otherwise I'll get drunk. ”

"Oh, really?" Gu Weiqi looked at the girl who was smiling like a flower, and said with a slight smile: "Hearing you say this, I will also taste what you say, come and have a toast for our acquaintance!" ”

Bite! As he spoke, he touched the cup with the girl, raised his neck and drank it all, smacking his mouth and tasting it, it tasted really good.

When Princess Yana saw that he had drained the wine in the cup, she was naturally embarrassed to drink only a little bit, so she had to reluctantly dry it. When the sweet wine was poured into her stomach, the girl's pretty face appeared a touch of red, and it seemed to be more and more delicate.

Gu Weiqi couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly, and praised with a smile: "Princess, your amount of wine is good, it's not good, I think it's okay to drink three more glasses." Come on, let's have another drink, drink this cup, and hope our friendship lasts forever! As he spoke, he poured two more glasses of wine.

Princess Yana's alcohol consumption is indeed not very good, although this coconut wine is sweet and delicious, and the alcohol content is not high. But some people get drunk when they get drunk, and there is no doubt that she is such a person. However, seeing that Gu Weiqi had already fallen on it and brought it to her, he was embarrassed to refuse. In particular, this glass of wine represents the friendship between the two people, so I had to endure the feeling of dizziness in my head and pour the wine into my stomach.

After two glasses of wine, the princess really couldn't bear it, she only felt that her head was dizzy, and her body was swaying uncontrollably and she was about to fall. Fortunately, the wine is not strong, although the head is uncomfortable, but the stomach is not so uncomfortable.

However, this gave Gu Weiqi a chance to kiss Fang Ze, seeing that the girl was about to fall, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed the other party's small waist, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

The girl said drunken and hazy, "No...... It's okay, it's just a little ...... Dizziness and wanting to sleep. ”

Gu Weiqi smiled and said, "Then will I accompany you?" ”

"You say...... What the? ”

"I said I'll help you go to rest, okay?"

"Okay."
