With such questions, Zhang Dachuan came to the front desk and saw Liu Jinglong who was bowing his head to settle accounts:
"Brother Liu, I'm here."
Hearing the sound, Liu Jinglong raised his head in surprise, with a tired smile on his face:
"Good boy, you came here so quickly. I thought you were going to stay in Mingyue County until your death."
He stood up excitedly, pulled Zhang Dachuan to sit down at a table, poured him a cup of tea enthusiastically, and said overjoyed:
"Come on, come on, we two brothers have to have a nice talk."
"I have already called your sister-in-law to inform her. She will be back soon. We will not return home until we are drunk tonight."
Zhang Dachuan discovered that Liu Jinglong, whom he hadn't seen for a while, looked several years older than before. He looked extremely tired, and he no longer felt as high-spirited as before.
Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he saw three people walking into the hotel out of the corner of his eye.
This was a good thing, but when he saw the three faces clearly, his heart suddenly sank.
Because the leader is Liu Chenghao!
Liu Chenghao was wearing a designer suit and looked like a dog. The two people following behind him looked like butlers.
Seeing the sparse diners in the restaurant, Liu Chenghao immediately raised his eyebrows, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, and at the same time he spoke in a sinister tone:
"Tsk tsk tsk, Uncle Jinglong has made some progress. There are two more people eating in the restaurant today than yesterday. Haha, if we continue at this rate for another two months, we might be able to return to our original peak condition."
Liu Jinglong stood up with a dark face, suppressing his anger and said:
"Why are you here? Do you want to flatter me or laugh at me?"
Liu Chenghao spread his hands:
"It all depends on your attitude, uncle. If you and my aunt..."
Before he finished speaking, a tall figure walked in quickly from outside the hotel. It was Liu Ruyun who had received the news about Liu Jinglong and hurried back to the hotel.
Liu Ruyun was seen walking quickly in front of Liu Chenghao, her face covered with frost and she said angrily:
"Liu Chenghao, who asked you to come to my store? Get out of here!"
Liu Chenghao said with a soft smile:
"Auntie, what do you mean? We are a family. Your nephew comes to see you. If you don't give him a glass of water, you shouldn't say bad words to him."
Liu Ruyun was extremely angry:
"Stop crying like a mouse. If it weren't for you, our hotel's business would be like this?"
"I count to three, get out of here immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!"
It turned out that since the last time Liu Jinglong and his wife helped Zhang Dachuan deal with the Fang family and openly defied the Liu family's instructions, the Liu family had completely given up on Liu Jinglong and Liu Ruyun, and began to spare no effort to suppress Liu Jinglong's property in Bailong City.
The Liu family plays a decisive role in the catering industry in Bailong City and is the leader in the catering industry in Bailong City.
They first spread the rumor that Cannon Grand Hotel had food problems, and then spread rumors that Cannon Grand Hotel was not being managed well and was about to close down. This made people in the hotel panic and many employees and chefs left.
The most disgusting thing is that the Liu family directly stopped the supply of drinks to the Fan family in Jinglong Hotel!
The reason why Liu Ruyun was so angry was because of this.
You know, the Fan family is the overlord of the wine industry in Bailong City. Only the Fan family has the best wine in the city. Whether a restaurant sells Fan family wine or not, the business is completely different.
The Liu family and the Fan family signed an exclusive cooperation agreement many years ago.
The Fan family's supreme level drunken wine can only be drunk at the Liu family's Jiudingxian.
In the beginning, the reason why the Liu family agreed to Liu Ruyun marry Liu Jinglong was because they wanted to annex the Jinglong Hotel, which Liu Jinglong built from scratch.
Later, when Liu Ruyun threatened her with death, the Liu family decided to settle for the next best thing, and agreed to their marriage on the condition that Liu Jinglong had to buy Zui Tianxia from their restaurant at a high price.
Liu Jinglong knew that the other party wanted to constrain him.
But for Liu Ruyun, he agreed.
After marriage, he took away Zui Tianxia from the Liu family at a high price of 490 per bottle every year.
As for these wines, which the Liu family bought from the Fan family, they only cost 400 a bottle.
Just from the difference in price, they can make a lot of money from Liu Jinglong every year.
Fortunately, Zui Tianxia has a good reputation. Liu Jinglong sacrificed his profits from drinks and managed to maintain the hotel business by relying on customer traffic. It was not a big loss after coming and going.
But this time, the Liu family stopped the supply of drinks to the Fan family. In the eyes of those customers who didn't know what was going on, it was tantamount to confirming the fact that the Jinglong Hotel was closed down.
For a time, the number of customers in the hotel dropped sharply. Old customers who had signed up for membership complained about refunds and never came to the store again.
Over the years, Liu Jinglong had made an unknown amount of money to the Liu family just by buying wine at high prices. In the end, the Liu family had to kill the donkey without caring about Liu Ruyun's identity and family ties. This made Liu Ruyun angry.
How could she feel at ease when her husband had been wronged so much for her?
Facing the furious Liu Ruyun, Liu Chenghao just waved his hands with a playful smile and said:
"Auntie, please don't be angry. I'm here today not to cause trouble, but to issue a notice to you on behalf of the family."
"You and your wife have borrowed five million from your family for business. The money will be due in two months... If you can't repay it by then, you will have to use your hotel to pay off the debt. "
He finished speaking matter-of-factly and winked at Liu Jinglong.
Liu Jinglong was completely angry.
He rushed to Liu Chenghao, grabbed his collar and asked:
"I have already paid back the five million, how can I still owe you money?"
It turns out that in the early years, when the business of Liu Jinglong's restaurant was booming, in order to expand its scale, he did borrow 5 million from the Liu family through Liu Ruyun's relationship.
But that money had already been paid off long after he had turned it around, so why was he still owed five million?
Liu Chenghao spread his hands and said to Liu Jinglong with an innocent face:
"Uncle, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense."
"You said you paid back five million, who can help you testify?"
As he spoke, he took out an IOU directly from his arms and waved it in front of Liu Jinglong:
"Look, the IOU you wrote back then is still there. If you really pay it off, how will you explain the IOU?"
Seeing the IOU so close at hand, Liu Jinglong was so angry that he almost fainted from anger.
When he paid back the money, he thought they were a family and paid it off in five installments, so he didn't take the IOU seriously.
But he didn't expect that the Liu family could be so shameless.
Now, because of their loss-making operations, they have already incurred a lot of debt. If they have another five million, they won't be able to repay it even if they sell everything.
Liu Ruyun glared at Liu Chenghao with red eyes and angrily said:
"Liu Chenghao, how can you be so shameless?"
"The Liu family has benefited so much from us over the years, but you are so ungrateful. You are worse than animals!"
Please give me a gift. Your support is the biggest motivation for me to write a good story. I love you!
