Chapter 100: Great Benefits
"How's it going, I'm still doing a little bit in this club, right?"
Wang Zhe led Su An to an antique, simple but elegant room.
The wooden floor is smooth and bright, and there are two desks on the north side, no chairs, replaced by quaint cushions, and the furnishings do not have a bit of urban atmosphere, but screens, calligraphy and paintings, and vases.
Even the lighting is candlesticks instead of electric lights.
Su An has only seen this scene in film and television works, and he has never had the opportunity to be in it in reality.
There are no high-rise buildings in this club covering a wide area, and all the buildings are retro style, and what Su An saw all the way was not small bridges and flowing water, lanterns and green willows, or water pavilions and thousands of purples and reds.
Wang Zhe was obviously very satisfied with his masterpiece, and introduced it to Su An with high interest: "Most of the money I have earned over the years has been spent on this mountain villa, and many of the designs have been made by me myself.
"It was difficult to find engineers and construction teams who knew how to build ancient buildings, so I spent a lot of trouble finding friends in the capital to build the villa.
"I like the tranquil charm of antiquity more than the opulent modern architecture and the dazzling urban neon.
"The waiters here are also carefully selected beauties from various universities, and they have to go through several months of ancient culture training before taking up their posts.
"What do you think, do you feel like you're dreaming back in history?"
Su An, who was born on the street of the governor of Ji, knows very little about Wang Zhe's so-called ancient history, and his biggest feeling now is that Wang Zhe is worthy of being the son of the political envoy of Lingdong Province, and the son of the family plays far more than he imagined as a small citizen in the market.
He sighed: "After building this club, I'm afraid it's really 'a great deal, and there is no vain talking and laughing'." ”
Hongru may not have it, but in and out must be extraordinary, rich and powerful dignitaries, and most of these people will become Wang Zhe's network, which is the purpose of his painstaking management of this different kind of villa.
It can be seen that Wang Zhe's dedication is not small.
While they were talking, two young maids had already entered the door with various objects, and sat beside them to make tea on the stove and in the kettle.
Su An glanced at it and found that the other party was really beautiful and graceful, and he was very poetic and bookish, and his every move was elegant and calm.
"It's actually boiling tea, not drinking...... What does this stuff smell like? Su An couldn't help but slander. For a teenager, how can tea have the same appeal as fine wine?
"Su An, you really understand me!" Wang Zhe laughed, put his arm around Su An's shoulders and began to talk about ancient culture and history, introducing him to all kinds of strange anecdotes of the ancients that he didn't know.
As a former good student, Su An certainly knew history, but he could only learn what was in the textbook.
The history of human civilization in the Xia Shang Continent began with an "air crash" thousands of years ago.
Their ancestors were a starfleet that explored the universe, but when they accidentally strayed into the turbulence of space, they were already suffering heavy losses when they crashed into the planet, and the ship was turned into scrap metal, losing the ability to set sail again.
Since then, people have settled on the Xia Shang continent, prospered through hardships and dangers, worked hard to develop civilization, and wanted to build a spaceship one day, set sail back to the universe, and return to the home planet that I don't know how far away.
Then came the advent of the demon clan.
The way the demon clan descends is the same as that of humans, but it is different.
The same thing is that they also strayed into the space rift and were swept to this planet by the space turbulence, the difference is that they don't have a spaceship.
In the words of the textbook, the ancestors of the demon clan were a group of refugees.
Because of their pure and kind nature, coupled with the experience of the same fallen people, human beings choose to treat this group of refugees who call themselves "elves" in a friendly way.
Although the demon race and humans come from different planets and are not the same race, the human race still helps them settle and settle in the Xia Shang Continent without asking for anything in return.
The parties had a honeymoon period for a while.
However, the good times didn't last long, the demon clan was vicious by nature, insidious and cruel, not to mention, and had no moral concept, so they were ungrateful after gaining a firm foothold, and launched a sneak attack on human beings in a planned way, trying to destroy human beings and be the only master on this planet!
Such evil acts are not expected by good human beings.
At first, the unprepared human beings were attacked by the demon clan, countless dead and wounded were bloody, the prosperous and brilliant cities were occupied by the demon clan, and the pieces of civilized paradise were burned by the demon clan.
But the brave humanity didn't stop there.
When the initial surprise passed, the human race began to organize effective resistance, and successfully stopped the attack of the demon clan through singing and crying victories again and again, at the cost of the bloody sacrifice of tens of thousands of people.
- Although the demon clan knows how to cultivate the truth and has strong individual combat power, the human race has scientific and technological civilization and knows the value of unity and dedication, so in the most difficult and dangerous moment, the last few cities were saved.
Since then, the human beings who have recovered from the strength have vigorously developed scientific and technological armaments while studying the cultivation methods of the demon race.
After nearly 100 years of long struggle, after paying unimaginable blood and tears, mankind has reversed its decline day by day, and turned defeat into victory step by step.
In the later stage of the "Centennial Campaign", human beings launched a comprehensive counteroffensive against the demon clan, regaining the land encroached upon by the demon clan inch by inch, and rebuilding the city belonging to the human race little by little!
In the end, human beings wrote their own heroic epic on the Xia Shang Continent, which was enough to move the cold universe, the demon clan was driven to a relatively remote and poor place, and the fire of scientific and technological civilization once again sprinkled this planet!
History then entered a phase of strategic stalemate.
The above is the history of mankind that Su An learned from textbooks.
But what Wang Zhe shared with him now is the ancient scenery and humanistic customs on the distant and distant home planet.
Because the ancestors of the Xia Shang Continent were only an exploratory fleet, and the early civilization was seriously damaged by the demon clan, there are very few historical and cultural and customs related to the home planet.
Middle school history textbooks focus on the struggle of human beings in the Xia Shang Continent, and there are only a few chapters on the introduction of the home planet.
As for some of the ancient texts that Su An recited, many of them were written down silently by the sages.
To this day, only children of a family with a long history like Wang Zhe have the opportunity to get in touch with more information about the home planet, and it is basically not systematic.
For the vast majority of human beings living in the Xia Shang Continent today, whether it is a fleet or a home planet, those too old and hard-to-find histories are just a little dust in the universe.
But at this moment, Su An listened more and more interested.
The unfamiliar names and unfamiliar deeds made his thoughts and feelings drift farther and farther away in the galaxy.
The fragrance of tea is thick, the sandalwood is overflowing, and the sound of crisp and long music is sounding in my ears at some point - someone is slowly plucking the strings, and the sound of the piano is melodious.
Immediately, there was a group of light dancers with colorful skirts fluttering and ribbons like clouds in the house, and their fingers hooked the years, and the green silk stirred up the past.
In Wang Zhe's emotional narration, Su An seemed to have seen those people go through those things, and the boundaries of his life expanded to a farther and higher place.
I don't know how long it took, the dancers retreated, the piano stopped, the teacup was replaced by a wine glass, the delicacies were put on the table, and the two began to raise their glasses and drink each other.
"Su An, you see, the ancients used the degree of simplicity, no use of machinery, I don't know what intelligence is, let's not stop fighting, we as descendants, living in high-rise buildings, there are good guns to use the Force as a basis, should we not be afraid of hardships and dangers to be strong and progressive, inherit the majesty of our ancestors?"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Wang Zhe was full of wine, but his eyes were staring at Su An, and the words he said were loud.
Su An knew that the main topic of tonight was coming, and this matter should not be simple, otherwise the other party would not have paved the way for so long, and emphasized what "not afraid of hardships" and "ancestral majesty".
He smiled and got straight to the point: "What do you have to do with it?" ”
Wang Zhe smiled slightly.
Just this simple action has both an unfathomable state and a sense of incitement and encouragement, but it will not make people vigilant, but will be aroused by enthusiasm.
He is like an old fox who has been cultivating for many years:
"There are many businesses in this world, and there are many that can make money, but do you know what kind of business can be done the most stable and long-lasting, and the wealth will continue to flow?"
Su An had no intention of being smart, knowing that the other party wanted to ask himself and answer, so he asked, "What kind?" ”
"Four words." Wang Zhe raised four fingers, and the words were thousands, "The national economy and people's livelihood!" ”
Su An bowed slightly, waiting for Wang Zhe to continue.
Wang Zhe continued: "The words 'national economy and people's livelihood' may be a bit big and empty, but if they are replaced with 'daily use' and 'daily food and clothing', then it is appropriately described.
"No matter how lucrative the arms business is, there are only so many customers after all, and if there is no war, it will be slow to consume;
"High-tech products are a million profits, a person can not buy a car every day, change a computer and a mobile phone every day, the life cycle of the company's production line and various machinery is not short.
"But the daily consumption is different, that is what everyone has to consume every day, whether you are a transcendent person with a high level of cultivation or an ordinary person who has no power to restrain the chicken, you can't skip eating, right?"
Hearing this, Su An had already figured out Wang Zhe's intentions.
Anxiazong's existing industries, whether it is bars, entertainment cities, or hotels, only have so many target customers, and the demand in Dongping District is so great, they are not things that everyone can't live without.
Suan really needs a better way to make money.
Su An asked: "Do you want to seize the supermarket convenience and fresh vegetable market in Dongping District?" ”
Wang Zhe didn't expect Su An to react so quickly, he was slightly stunned, and then exclaimed: "Clever!" Su An, you really know that you can understand everything, I know that it is right to cooperate with you! ”
Su An began to think about the feasibility of this project.
The first is the financial aspect.
There is no doubt that businesses such as supermarket convenience and fresh fruits and vegetables, although they do not seem to be lofty at all, cannot be compared with Force weapons and mechanical armor, but the daily consumption is astronomical, and it is an absolute source of money.
The second is the strength aspect.
With the strength of the Anxia Sect, it is definitely impossible to do this, but counting the entire Anxia League, it is different, after the fall of the Yellow Sea, more and more sects have joined the Anxia Sect.
Although it can't be compared with those big sects and big forces that live in the clouds, on the "ground", Anxia League seems to be a hegemon that cannot be ignored in Dongping District!
To say that to participate in the high-end market rich in science and technology, Anxiameng has no technology and no competitiveness, but if it is said that one acre and three points of land in the streets and alleys, Anxiameng is absolutely influential.
Wang Zhe wants the convenience of supermarkets and fresh vegetable markets in Dongping District, and Anxiameng can't get around it no matter what.
If Anxiameng does not cooperate, or even deliberately causes damage, which supermarket and store on the street can do business normally?
And this is an important reason why Wang Zhe is looking for Su An to cooperate!
If the strength is in place, there is no fear that there will be no opportunity to make money and make a fortune.
Finally, this is the opportunity.
Since the market of "daily use" is lucrative, it will not go unnoticed, in fact, the vast majority of the market share is in the hands of chain supermarkets.
From large shopping malls in the bustling city to convenience stores in the streets and alleys, they all have to join related chains, backed by certain armed and powerful groups.
Again, the scientific and technological development of the Xia Shang Continent has been stagnant for hundreds of years, and all kinds of social wealth have long been divided up by large and small forces, and there is not a single fish that has slipped through the net.
If ordinary people want to open a store, they must either join a chain, or they can only eat a little bit of corners.
Prior to this, most of the "daily use" market in Dongping District was in the hands of the Huang family, and Huang Hai, the inspector of the patrol house, was an important part of it.
It is the existence of the hill in the grassroots town!
Because of Su An's previous struggle, Huang Yuewen was killed and Huanghai fell, which caused a gap in the originally leaky mountain of interests, which immediately attracted the covetousness of people with intentions.
Wang Zhe is like a shark that smells blood!
Su An knew with his knees that Wang Zhe was not the only shark coming around.
But if there is no Wang Zhe, An Xia Meng has no chance to get involved in this market, and if it is someone else who takes over this market, An Xia Meng will not be able to really destroy other people's business.
After all, the strength is limited, and fighting alone is not the opponent of those big forces.
Unless Anxia League has a big mountain behind it, it can get strong support, so that Anxia League has the qualification to directly go down and snatch the country.
Wang Zhe in front of him is such a mountain, or rather, a big tree.
Huanghai had just fallen, Wang Zhe immediately came to Su An to cooperate, the speed was so fast, I am afraid that An Xia Meng was attracted by others and wore a pair of pants with other forces.
In that case, the "ground" advantage, or "grassroots advantage", is someone else's.
There are "grassroots forces" and "upper-level forces", even if Wang Zhe is the son of a political envoy, he has to shake his head in the face of such interest groups.
In a word, Wang Zhe and Su An are mutually beneficial, and only by joining hands with each other can they have the opportunity to compete for this market!
No matter which side you are, you can't do it without the help of the other.
Su An's thoughts were racing, and after comprehensively considering various links, the final conclusion was obvious: this business can be done!
