First, many gambling houses have also started to make horse cranes, which has robbed us of a lot of customers. Of course, because we are the founder of this horse crane after all, most gamblers choose our casino.

Second, there is a serious shortage of people in the gambling houses. Although, since Yang County's order became a shareholder, there have also been people secretly sent to take care of the gambling house. But the business of the gambling house is too good, coupled with the excitement of the horse hanging, of course, the guests who win money are happy, but the guests who lose many times, will not be angry, can not control their temper and quarrel with the winner, a bad fight up, affecting other guests. There were at least five or six incidents a day. If we don't send more people to prevent this from happening, it will have a great impact on the business of the gambling house!

Third, the cash flow is insufficient. The gambling house business is good, some people win money, and some people will lose! Those who lose money need two rounds of silver. The gambling house must be borrowed, otherwise no one will come to gamble. But the problem is that now the gambling house has to lend out fifty or sixty taels of silver every day, and sometimes it is too late to recover the money, and someone borrows it.

Oh, you don't know, I'm a weak little woman who is so annoyed by these three questions that she runs around every day, and she is so tired that her waist is about to break! ”

Wen Han and Li Qiang, including Pei Yuanshao, who had just joined the gang, were all frightened by this weak 'little woman', and they all slandered in their hearts.

If you are still a weak woman, then those men outside don't have to live.

Wen Han's face suddenly became bitter, and from the unanimous gazes of everyone present, he knew that this group of guys must be waiting for him to come up with an idea.

"You guys have ideas, don't rely on me every time. In the future, if I 'get up' and have a big family, I can't take all the problems on my shoulder. I'll be exhausted to death! ”

"Virtuous brother, those who can work harder. Brother is also studying, and when he can be on his own, Brother Wei will definitely come up with ideas, and now it's up to you. Zhou Long said very unconscionable.

"Yes, yes, yes. Those who can work harder. Lin, Li Qiang, and Pei Yuanshao were also in line with the Tao at the same time, and they had already been impressed by Wen Han's wisdom and his novel ideas. Moreover, they found that every time a problem befell Wen Han, Wen Han would magically solve the problem, and solve it perfectly!

After getting along for a long time, if there is a problem, don't throw it to the 'terminator', then to whom?

Wen Han rolled his eyes, knowing that he should do the right thing, and he didn't talk nonsense: "The first problem is more difficult to solve. Because we still can't put an end to the imitation of others. However, after all, we are the founders, and many of the rules and regulations are set by us here, and those gambling houses that imitate us are not so quick to get started.

Therefore, as long as we do a good job in the brand of our gambling house, so that those gamblers always feel that the horse crane played in our gambling house is the authentic horse crane. Then we will not be afraid to imitate, because then everything is a floating cloud! ”

"Wait a minute, what is a brand? What is a floating cloud? ”

Zhou Long was used to Wen Han popping up some novel words from time to time, and he was no longer surprised, but every time he would let Wen Han parse the meaning of these words.

"Yes. How to put it, the brand refers to the degree to which those gamblers identify with our gambling house horse hanging. It's like the most famous restaurant in our county, 'Moon Tower', as long as an outsider asks which is the best restaurant in Xie County. The people of Xie County will immediately mention 'Moon Tower'. That's what branding is all about.

As for the floating clouds, it just doesn't have to be taken seriously. You don't need to know too much, just know the definition of a brand. ”

"Oh~!"

Zhou Long and the others didn't seem to understand whether they understood the way or not, and Wen Han didn't care, let them understand it slowly, and then continued: "The second question is manpower. This, I've solved it. I arranged for Pei Yuanshao to draw a hundred people from the Black Wind Soldiers every day to help in the gambling house. They are all very good at fighting, and ordinary gamblers can solve several of them at a time.

As for the third issue, there is funding. The silver taels seized from Black Wind Mountain can be solved with a part of it first. If it's not enough, I'll think of a way. Also, sister-in-law, you give Pei Yuanshao a list of those who often default on loans, Yuanshao, you let your subordinates warn them, if there is really difficulty, you give a minimum period according to the situation, if it is malicious default, you don't have to be polite. As long as you don't kill anyone, everything is easy!

Okay, I'll give you the method for all three questions. Just do what you do. ”

There was a burst of applause, and Zhou Long, Lin Shi, Li Qiang, and Pei Yuanshao applauded Wen Han's wonderful speech. This kind of situation can't help but make Wen Han feel as if those big companies in later generations are meeting to discuss problems.

"That's right. Also, the horse crane competition should also be held. Li Qiang: Tomorrow, you will ask your escort team to make a wooden board by hand, and engrave on the board the time and qualifications of the horse crane competition. We, Brother Zhou, will report to Yang County Commander tomorrow and ask him to cooperate with us. When the time comes, Li Qiang, you let the guards put wooden planks in all conspicuous places in the county, and I want everyone in the county to know about this horse crane competition.

I'm going to hold three sessions on three levels. Low, medium and high gear, low-end admission qualifications need half a tael, mid-range admission qualifications are five taels, and high-end admission qualifications are fifty taels. We will hold the low range first, and the top four contestants can go directly to the middle range without paying the entrance fee. After the low gear is held, it is the mid-range, and the middle range also adopts the same method, and the top four do not need to pay the entrance fee to enter the high-end directly. The high-end tournament is held last.

The champion who wins the high-end competition can get the title of 'horse hanging' issued by the Yang County Order. The first three of our gambling house took out a prize of 1,000 taels, 500 taels, and 300 taels respectively! ”

"Childe, why is it so troublesome to divide it into three levels, can't you just make it high-end?" Li Qiang didn't understand the deep meaning, and asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, that's a good question. Li Qiang, you don't understand the mentality of those famous and wealthy families and those businessmen with financial resources. They all thought they were superior. If it is held directly, even if they care about the name of 'horse hanging', it is likely that they will not come because they can't pull down their identity.

Because, there are many gambling houses that like horse hanging, and the identities are also uneven, if the people with low status sit at the same table with those wealthy families, those wealthy families will definitely be unhappy. Those with low status are also afraid of offending the wealthy family, appearing uncomfortable, and losing their desire to compete.

However, I divide the layers so that they become selective. Generally, gamblers can choose low-end, some wealthy businessmen can choose medium and high-end, and those wealthy families will generally choose high-end.

And the reason why I let the top four in the low and middle blocks can advance for free is to give those ordinary gamblers a hope, if they can win the top four places in the game, I believe that those businessmen and wealthy families will also give some respect, after all, people with a little strength, regardless of identity, can win the respect of others. ”

"Good! Good! Good! I don't know what words to use to describe your head. Once this horse crane competition is successful, my gambling house will immediately become famous, and then I will open branches in various counties, which is a success, and it will be a matter of course. ”

Zhou Long exhaled a few times, his face full of excitement. Being able to make the gambling house bigger has always been the wish of Zhou Longzu for several lifetimes.

"Brother Zhou, don't be too happy, you and I understand that this gambling house business won't last long. I'm not afraid to tell you, don't look at the current court is calm, but because of the ten permanent servants who manipulate power and brutalize Zhongliang, the court is already within reach. It is not far from the arrival of troubled times, only two years at most.

Therefore, we now want to accumulate a lot of wealth and accumulate strength before the troubled times come. in order to survive and occupy a place. Brother Zhou, we are all civilians, unlike those famous families who have soldiers, financial resources and foundations, we have nothing, so we must have foresight and take a step ahead of them, so as not to be devoured by them in troubled times! ”

Now Wen Han and Zhou Long have begun to have a certain amount of power, which they both fought back with their lives, but the real storm has not yet come, Wen Han has not experienced the troubled times, but he also understands the terrible troubled times from the historical records. Wen Han was afraid that Zhou Long's vision was not far-sighted enough and he was content with the status quo, so he opened his mouth to remind.

"Brother Xian. I know you want to. Rest assured, my brother's vision is not so short-sighted. However, I want to confirm again for my brother, will this generation really be chaotic? Suddenly, Zhou Long's face darkened, as if he didn't want to believe it.

"Mess! And it will last for a long, long time! Wen Han knew that he had to ring this alarm bell for everyone present, and said categorically.

Everyone present fell into a terrifying silence. They understood that Wen Han was not the kind of alarmist, and at the same time they also seemed to see the picture of a river of blood, corpses everywhere, and a constant war in the near future.

After a while, Zhou Long stood up, his face was terrifyingly gloomy: "I'm tired of my brother, go back to the room to rest first." ”

Zhou Long seemed a little unsteady in his steps, and Lin hurriedly went over to help.

"Brother Zhou... In three days, I will eradicate Ma Zong. Wen Han shouted at Zhou Long's back.

"Then Ma Zong's life, do you want to take it?" Zhou Long stopped, although Ma Zong had wanted to seize his gambling house many times, and even wanted to return his life. However, with Zhou Long's kind character, knowing that Ma Zong was going to die in the hands of Wen Han, he couldn't bear it in his heart.

For a moment, Zhou Long recalled that his father was still there, and Ma Zong hugged himself when he was a child, laughing heartily.

"I can't keep it."

Zhou Long's heart trembled, and he stopped and moved again: "Virtuous brother, I will listen to you for my brother." In the future, you can decide on any major matters, and you don't need to talk to your brother. Brother Wei said that as long as it is something you want to do, Brother Wei will support it. only hates, is a brother, has a humble ability, and has a soft heart. I can't stand it, and I'm training for big things. ”

Wen Han looked at Zhou Long's departing figure and sighed deeply.

There are some things that Wen Han's heart is bright. Zhou Long was originally a small person, if Zhou Long hadn't saved himself, he would have been killed by Ma Zong. He has a good nature and likes to live comfortably. If he had to go through too many burdens, he couldn't bear it now. Wen Han is not easy to persecute, I just hope that Zhou Long can change slowly.

Wen Han came back to his senses and saw that Pei Yuanshao and Li Qiang's faces were not full of worry like Zhou Long, but had a feeling of eagerness to try.
