Chapter 68: Billiards Hall 2
Frankly speaking, I don't know what to do about this house.
It's not that I'm not worried about Bai Kai and Qin Yiheng's ability. It's that it's too easy to make enemies. If you can't recruit the enemy, you will plan revenge openly and secretly, and the gains outweigh the losses.
I talked to both of them. Neither of them took it seriously.
If you want to leave no trouble, the only way is to do things absolutely. He is still very confident in this.
Since they said so, I have nothing to worry about. The three of them made a brief preparation and set off on the road.
I've been to Chengdu many times, and there's nothing to do anymore.
So after getting off the plane, we went straight to the billiards hall. Along the way, my eyes were not idle, I took a general look at the surrounding facilities, and I already had an expected price in my heart.
We met the owner in the café downstairs of the billiards hall. The boss is a man with distinctly Southern merchant traits.
White and clean, with shiny hair. He claimed to be almost fifty years old, but he looked very young on his face.
After a few simple pleasantries, I cut to the chase. Let him explain the matter thoroughly, and we can make plans again.
The boss's Mandarin is not very good, and he uses a lot of dialect slang when he speaks.
We can only listen to a rough idea, and finally Bai Kai asked a few key points of the matter, and then we thoroughly understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.
The boss said that this billiard hall has been open for seven or eight years. Business has been very good, and many national billiards tournaments have been held. It's relatively high-end. As for himself, he also likes billiards very much. On weekdays, he often soaks in it to compete with others, and he is also a semi-professional golfer.
As the saying goes, love does one line and one line, and this boss is also very attentive to the billiards hall.
A year ago, I took a special break for a month, redecorated the entire billiards hall, and found Mr. Feng Shui to decorate it again. When it reopened, business was even more prosperous.
But strangely, this good times were short-lived. Business was booming for a month, and suddenly it took a sharp turn. Many of the regular customers don't even show up anymore.
The boss was a little strange at first, because there were no shops in the neighborhood that could compete with him. The source of customers is lost for no reason, and they don't know where they went.
He also asked a few familiar customers to inquire, and they also said that there was no special reason, but they were busy or entangled in trivial matters recently, and it was difficult to have time to come.
Since people say so, this boss can only put his heart in his stomach.
But seeing that more than half a month has passed, business has never improved. Now the boss has to be anxious, although this store is his, the rent is saved. But there is not a lot of personnel expenses inside, and he has no other business, if there is a mistake here, he will really break his bones.
Since the apparent reason cannot be found, the boss himself is also more superstitious. Naturally, I think of the reasons that I can't see.
So he found a new feng shui gentleman to see, and he didn't know if the feng shui gentleman was a swagger, so he came to see it, saying that there was no problem with feng shui, this place was close to the downtown area, and the feng shui ornaments and decoration settings in it were only in and out, and they were crazy about making money. So the problem can only be somewhere else.
Although Mr. Feng Shui said this, he can't just listen to auspicious words at the moment.
The boss was not reconciled, so he invited a so-called master at a high price. I didn't think that when this master came in and saw it, he immediately called it a big deal. said that although the feng shui in the billiards hall belongs to the accumulation of wealth, a lot of wealth and luck have been sucked away by something, and it is suspected that someone is obstructing it.
finally found the reason, but the boss was even more distressed. At that time, I almost didn't kneel down for the master, and promised to let the other party give the matter at a high price.
Naturally, the master would not accept the money when he saw it, so he immediately agreed. said that the billiards hall needs to be closed for a few days, let him stay in it for a few days, and he will definitely find the problem.
And that's how it went, just as we had heard. After the master lived in the billiards hall, the boss arranged for the employees to deliver three meals every day, and there was only one person in the room. I thought that this matter would be solved in a few days. But he didn't think about it, and within a few days, the employee suddenly called him in a hurry. When he said that he went to deliver lunch, he found that the master was already unconscious. The boss hurriedly sent the master to the hospital, this examination is even more strange, after the master woke up, there was no injury on the surface, but he kept shouting that his feet hurt and his legs hurt, and he couldn't walk on the ground.
Naturally, the doctor will not understand the reason, and all the examinations are normal. They are also helpless. I can only send it to a hospital in Beijing to have a look.
The boss knows that this is no longer a category that can be solved by medicine, but there is no one around him who knows how to do it. I can only discuss countermeasures with the master, and wonder if the master has any senior brothers and brothers who can be called over to help.
Who knew that the master sued him, he couldn't handle this matter, and he didn't want to be paid. Don't be embarrassed to ask about specific hopes, he can only remind him with his conscience that it is better to close this store as soon as possible, and it is not necessarily what will hurt in the future.
And he heard this thing again. This boss is really scared enough. After asking a few words, he didn't want to say anything when he saw that the master, so he could only wrap a red envelope to express his heart, and the store reluctantly continued to open.
This opened really had an accident, not only the business of the store was terrible, but what made people feel unbelievable was that it was really taken seriously by the master, a few days after the store reopened, the boss's family had a car accident, and the daughter-in-law and the son who went to junior high school went to the hospital together, although they saved their lives, but they also walked through the ghost gate.
Not only that, not long after the car accident, the old man in the family died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage.
After a toss back and forth, this boss is completely dead to the billiard hall. Doing business for so many years, although shrewd, but he asked himself if he really didn't do anything hurtful, now that he is being so rectified, a fire in his heart has long burned to the door of his brain, and then the news was released, but if someone can settle it for him, the store will be given away in vain, the only requirement is not to change his business, and still make a billiard hall, after all, it is his hard work, and he doesn't want to see it ruined.
The boss finished talking about it, and he had already smoked nearly a pack of cigarettes. As an old smoker, my lungs hurt when I look at it.
After thinking about it for a while, things inside are really complicated. Listening to the boss's words, the master really doesn't look like a fish in troubled waters. If it's really a master, it's also in this billiard hall, I'm really a little worried.
I exchanged glances with them, and Qin Yiheng nodded at me, meaning that the question was not as strict as I imagined.
I had to light a cigarette and ask the boss, is there anything strange going on in the billiards hall otherwise? For example, someone saw something? The more specific, the better.
The boss hurriedly shook his head and said that after the incident came out, he asked every employee, but no one found anything.
I said in my heart, does this have nothing to do with filth? Regardless of them, in my experience, if there is filth in trouble, others must be more or less aware of it.
I patted Bai Kai, meaning to let him ask. Bai Kai said, alas, let me ask you, all of your things happened after the renovation. Did you mess with the renovation workers?
The boss was stunned for a moment, but still said no.
Bai Kai let out a sigh and quietly summed up with Qin Yiheng. I asked the boss to take us to the field to see.
After talking so much before, I already have a general impression of the billiards hall in my mind. I think the decoration inside should be luxurious.
But after I really went to see it, I found that it was super luxurious.
It's also possible that I haven't seen the world, anyway, I've never seen a billiards hall with such a luxurious decoration. As far as the eye can see, it is all golden, whether it is the walls or the decoration, it is mainly golden. It's a bit dazzling at first glance.
The billiard hall has been abandoned for a while, and there is not much dust on the floor, but it still looks very depressed.
The boss turned on all the lights, and I saw a very large feng shui ornament in front of the front desk at a glance. In jargon, it should be called Jubaoding. The whole tripod is also painted with gold paint, which is very valuable when you look at it.
The area in the billiard hall is very large, and the billiard tables are impossible to count at a glance. The whole billiards hall has a lot of partitions, and the decoration of each partition is different except for the uniform gold. Including the matching sofa and carpet, you can see that the original design was put into the mind.
No way. You want to be the Jade Emperor! Bai Kai sighed and said, where does the old man live before?
The boss led us all the way to the innermost part of the billiards hall and pushed open a door. It was supposed to be the previous boss's office, with a single bed in addition to a desk and sofa. The boss pointed to the bed, and there it was.
Bai Kaiyi lifted the quilt on the bed, and there was a layer of red paper underneath. Bai Kai said, no, this bed is made by the tall old man, and he himself will definitely not sleep here. Think again.
The boss was surprised, so he listened to Qin Yiheng and said, that person should have slept in Jubaoding before.
