Chapter 28: Universal Entertainment
The next day, when Lin Xia arrived at the Hongxing headquarters, there were already many people in the Hongxing lobby, Xavier, Troy, Rodney, and Parker were all there, each of them had a red face, and even looked at themselves with a look of adoration.
Lin Xia stopped and looked at himself, there was no problem, what were these people doing. I can't help but feel a chill on my body, I don't like men, don't look at me like that.
When several people saw Lin Xia arrive, they all nodded and saluted, and Xavier said excitedly: "Big brother, Hongchen's turnover increased seven times yesterday." β
"Oh!" Lin Xia nodded disappreδΈι¨ly, seven times is nothing, you backward scumbags, give me some time, I will let you know what the entertainment industry is.
Seeing that Lin Xia didn't think so, Xavier thought that Lin Xia didn't hear clearly, and repeated again: "Big brother, the turnover has increased by seven ......"
"Got it, what's all the fuss. Lin Xia interrupted Xavier's words and sat down in his chair, looking unshocked.
The rest of the people will look at their own actions, looking at Lin Xia's calm appearance and not pretending, they all admire it even more in their hearts.
"Take out all the money from Hongxing and buy land near Hongchen, buy as much as you can. Lin Xia said suddenly.
"Buy land?" Xavier asked. Xavier said in his heart: "I was talking about Hongchen, why did I suddenly buy land again, these two things have nothing to do with it." β
"I tried to raise as much money as I could, and I sold the other three brothels, and I bought as much land as I could. Remember, you have to be able to open a store on the street. Lin Xia continued.
"Big brother, why did you suddenly remember to buy land?" Xavier asked.
"I'm going to open a large entertainment complex near Hongchen. Lin Xia said.
"Entertainment center?" Xavier was confused.
Lin Xia also knew that these buns definitely didn't understand, and said, "You'll know when you open it, this is a project to make a lot of money." β
When Xavier and the others heard this, they were immediately excited, Hongchen's change had proved to them that Lin Xia was a business genius, and they felt more and more that Lin Xia's unfathomability was not something that a few of them could understand. Especially Rodney, when he heard that it was a big money-making project, he looked at Lin Xia with bright eyes.
"The money should be raised as soon as possible, and the land should be bought as soon as possible, as soon as possible. Lin Xia continued: "But we must protect the income of the brothers, and we are not allowed to delay the payment time of the brothers. β
"Yes, I'll do it. Xavier said yes and went to raise money.
"Parker, you ask the tailors to make more uniforms from the day before yesterday, and they will be useful in a while. Lin Xia said.
"Yes. Parker went to arrange the uniforms.
Lin Xia and Rodney were left in the house, Lin Xia glanced at Rodney, wondering why he hadn't left yet, shouldn't he go to Hongchen to prepare for the afternoon business.
Rodney stood up, bowed to Lin Xia, and said, "Boss, can you let me follow you during this time?"
"Are you still in trouble?" Lin Xia asked.
"I want to learn business from you. Rodney said with a serious face.
"Learn business with me?" Lin Xiaqi said.
"I was a merchant, and I was robbed on the way back to the imperial capital on a purchase of goods, and the goods on that occasion were all my wealth, and some of them were borrowed by me. After I returned to the imperial capital, in order to repay the money, I sold everything I could sell at home, but it was still not enough. In the end, it was Xavier Boss who helped me pay back the money, and I helped him manage Hongchen in order to repay him. Rodney said.
Lin Xia was also not familiar with Rodney, only knew that he had followed Xavier for many years, helping Xavier manage Red Dust, and it was the first time he knew about Rodney's experience.
"I used to think I had some ability in business, but after looking at your methods, I knew that I was just a frog at the bottom of a well. Rodney said.
"So you want to follow me?" Lin Xia asked.
"Yes, I don't know what you need me to give?" Rodney said.
"No, Rodney, you are Hong Xing's brother, if you want to learn from me, all I need you to pay is loyalty to Hong Xing. Lin Xia paused for a moment and said, "You bring Hongchen's account book to me to see, I will see if you have a talent for business as you said." β
"I've brought it, please take a look. Rodney was clearly prepared and pulled the ledger out of his bosom.
Lin Xia took it and opened the account book to watch, there was a very detailed account of each entry and exit, as well as a summary of the monthly entry and exit, and even an analysis of the monthly data, which was just a statistical chart. Remembering the approximate, approximate numbers in the data that Xavier and Troy had reported to themselves, this Rodney was a genius by comparison.
Lin Xia said: "From the account book, you can see whether a person is suitable for business, obviously Rodney is suitable, and he doesn't know anything about business at all, just has some creativity, this Rodney is a suitable person for execution." β
Lin Xia looked at Rodney and said, "From today onwards, you follow me until the new entertainment center opens, and if you learn well, then Hongxing's industries will be under your management from now on." β
"Huh?" Rodney was startled, he never thought that Lin Xia would take care of Hongxing's property for himself.
"Okay, you arrange Hongchen's affairs first, when will it be arranged, and when will you come to me. Lin Xia said.
"Yes, I'll go. Rodney almost fell as he left, and he was clearly excited.
After Rodney left, Lin Xia was sitting alone in the lobby drinking tea, thinking about the design and operation of the entertainment center, when a Hongxing brother came in, saying that there was a magician at the door, and he must go out by himself.
Lin Xia was curious about who it was, so he had to go out, only to see Bacon hiding in a corner and watching sneaky.
Lin Xia got angry when he saw him, and kicked him directly, "You dog-like thing, what are you hiding here?"
Bacon blushed and said, "I'm afraid Xavier will see it." β
"Do you still know that blushing and buying things?" Lin Xia said.
"Got it. Bacon took out a small metal rod like a treasure, which was smaller than Lin Xia's microphone in his previous life, and there was a formation engraved on it, saying that it was a low-level formation, but in the eyes of Lin Xia now, it was complicated enough.
At the bottom of the metal rod, there was a gemstone the size of a grain of rice, and Lin Xia asked, "What is this gem for?"
Bacon said: "This is a magic gem, which is used to give the energy of the magic array in the microphone, if the energy of the gem is not enough, you can just change the gem." β
"This thing also needs batteries. Lin Xia said in his heart, and then asked Bacon: "How much is such a gem?"
"About twenty gold coins. Bacon said.
Lin Xia slapped him and said angrily: "You told me that this thing is very cheap, my megaphone is used every day, and you can afford to buy a gem of twenty gold coins?"
"The energy consumed by the amplifier is very small, and it is not a problem for such a large gem to be used normally for a year or two. Bacon replied.
"That's fine. Lin Xia is afraid that this gem is the same as the battery in his previous life, and he will have to change it in a few days, so how much money he earns will not be enough for this disaster.
Lin Xia tried the megaphone, and felt that the microphone effect was even better than the microphone in his previous life, as if someone was talking in your ear.
"Good job this time, you send the megaphone to Red Dust and give it to Rodney. Lin Xia said to Bacon.
After receiving Lin Xia's praise, Bacon flattered Lin Xia a few words and walked away.
Yesterday in Hongchen, he found that Hongchen's girls had to shout at the top of their voices when they sang, so when he returned to the Viscount's Palace, he asked Bacon if there were any magic props that could amplify the sound, otherwise the voices of these girls would be abandoned in a few days.
......
A few days later, near Hongchen, Xavier took Lin Xia and introduced as he walked: "I have already bought all the storefronts on Xishui Street, and now the entire Xishui Street is Hongxing. β
The street where Hongchen is located is called Xishui Street, due to Tang's influence on Charlemagne's continent, Lin Xia is now somewhat immune to the street names with Chinese characteristics in Charlemagne's continent.
"You've bought the whole street, you're not going to force you to buy and sell, are you?" Lin Xia asked.
"Big brother, how could I, Xavier, do such a thing. The other three brothels are all in a better location than Hongchen, so the prices are not bad. Business on Xishui Street has not been very good, and when I went to buy it, the owners were selling very well. Xavier said.
"It's not a long street, but it's not enough. Lin Xia said.
Xavier touched his bald head and said, "I took out all my savings over the years." β
"Aren't you afraid of losing money and going bankrupt?" Lin Xia didn't expect Xavier to take out his savings.
"It's okay, I believe in the eldest brother, even if I lend this money to Hong Xing, I will pay it back after a while. Xavier didn't care.
"Okay, good brother. Lin Xia patted Xavier's arm.
A few people happened to walk to the door of Hongchen, Lin Xia looked at the merchant opposite Hongchen, the area is also very large, it is a five-storey shop, and the height of five floors is already a high-rise building in Charlemagne's continent.
"It used to be a hotel, but business was not good, and it closed last year, and I found the owner, and he sold the most cheerfully. Xavier saw that Lin Xia was looking at the hotel and hurriedly said.
"It's nice here, the house is also ready-made, go in and have a look. Lin Xia said.
"Big brother, please. "Xavier has already been here to lead the way for Lin Xia.
After Lin Xia entered, he found that it was similar to the cheap hotel in the previous life, and after entering the door, there was a service desk, which was used for registration, and other places were guest rooms, but the total area of each floor was very large.
"Rodney. Lin Xia shouted to the back.
Rodney hurriedly walked to the front, he had already arranged Hongchen, and he had been following Lin Xia for the past few days.
"You will be responsible for the management of this place in the future" Lin Xia said: "Change the pattern here, the first floor is used for restaurants and cafes, and the restaurant should make more private rooms; the second floor is a nightclub, according to the layout of Hongchen, but try to be more luxurious, and make some private rooms, note that these private rooms are not for shameful things; the third floor is a casino, this Xavier is very familiar, I will not participate; the fourth floor is used for bathing, and the fifth floor is used as a guest room." β
The plan of the new entertainment center, Lin Xia and Rodney chatted, Rodney already knew Lin Xia's intentions, and immediately replied: "Boss, please rest assured, I will do a good job." β
