Ji Qinglin really didn't expect Pei Ruohai to transfer Yese Bar to him. After all, he was the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and he still had a certain pattern.
Seeing the master's thoughtful look, Yuye brought hot tea and asked:
"Master, so you are really planning to buy the Night Bar?"
Knowing that Yuye didn't know much about that bar, Ji Qinglin took a sip of tea and explained:
"My teacher really likes night bars, not because of the number of beautiful young singers and dancers, real and omnic, employed there and the considerable income they bring, but mainly because it is a quite large information distribution center.
Of course, our grocery store can be regarded as an information distribution center, but it is far different from the night bar.
There are people from various chambers of commerce and companies who come to the night bars to spend money, and they are having fun and getting drunk, and often they are not so strict with their mouths.
If you want to know some first-hand information about a certain circle, or want to spread some true or false rumors, it is a perfect place to go.
It is precisely because of this that the night bar can also serve as an intelligence gathering function. "
Chiye: Master says he doesn’t care about singers and dancers, but he understands very clearly.
Yuye suddenly understood and nodded:
"So Master wants to build it into an intelligence collection center? And then people will control it behind the scenes?"
Ji Qinglin put down his tea cup and shook his head:
"Not only that, if we are able to recruit or train a group of capable employees in the future, it is not impossible to develop Yese Bar as a sect."
Of course, Ji Qinglin also knows that using a place like a bar as a sect is a bit inconsistent, just like the "Yelai Inn" that often appears in martial arts, but he has never heard of a "Yelai Sect" or a "Yelai Sect" of.
Yuye stared at the road with apricot eyes:
"Master wants to start a sect?"
"It's not that I want to start a business. The past few times I asked Cui Sanmei to help dispatch people have gone smoothly, but it was for official business after all. I am thinking that if I dispatch people for my personal affairs, I may not be able to succeed every time. Even to protect yourself, you need to borrow people from the secret police, so it is indeed necessary to develop your own power."
"But Master, starting a sect in a bar is a bit too unorthodox, isn't it? It makes it seem like we are not serious."
Ji Qinglin explained with a smile:
"Why should you care so much? If you think about it from another angle, aren't temple sects like Haizhe Temple strictly speaking relying on the tourism service industry to make money and develop?
Thinking about it this way, essentially, the singers in the bar are similar to the monks in Haizhe Temple. They are both disciples of the sect, and the singers are more eye-catching. "
Yuye had never thought about the problem in this way. She felt that her master had once again led her away from the bottom line, but she could not refute it.
Chi Ye quite agreed, showing an illusory body and saying:
"Master, thank you! My disciple supports you! From now on, going back to the sect every day will be like going to a bar. It's exciting just thinking about it! Master, have you thought about the name of the sect? Should it be called Wanlemen or Fengchenhui? From now on, my disciple Can you be a bartender?"
Ji Qinglin was also amused by the two names given by Chi Ye, shook his head and said:
"It's not official again, is it? We are just talking about it as a teacher, and there is no formal arrangement yet. Besides, if Pei Ruohai really intends to transfer this time, it will be unprofitable and he can't afford it early. He must also ask for help from his teacher, and he has to Let’s take a look at the content of the negotiation first.
Later, when negotiating with Pei Ruohai, I will try my best to make the night bar as good as possible. After all, the more you want something, the more reserved and indifferent you have to be. "
Chi Ye heard the words and said:
"Master, don't worry, Yuye has always been very reserved."
After being exposed, Yuye stared with watery eyes and said:
"Chiye!"
Ji Qinglin pretended to be confused and said:
"Oh? Is there anything in particular that Yuye wants? Do you want to help the teacher?"
What did Yu Yexin say about herself? If you say you want Master, you won't be able to say it even to death!
While they were having fun, there was movement outside the grocery store. Through the glass, they saw a fat old man wearing sportswear and a black cloak coming to the door.
When he opened the door, he saw Pei Ruohai in a low-key dress.
Seeing Pei Ruohai arriving in casual clothes so quickly, Ji Qinglin knew that his guess just now was correct. This old boy must have something to ask of him.
"Hey, President Pei, you are such a rare visitor. Why do you have time to sit in the shop today?"
The fat monk responded with a smile on his face:
"I know Elder Ji wants to take over the Night Bar, so I came here to discuss it."
Ji Qinglin let Pei Ruohai in, who came in low profile, and the two sat down in front of the counter. Ji Qinglin asked:
"Boss He did come to chat just now. To be honest, for outsiders, Night Bar is indeed a good place, but I don't have much interest, otherwise I wouldn't stay in this small shop all the time. But I can also see that President Pei It is indeed a good intention, so before communicating with the Night Bar, can I first ask President Pei why he did this?"
Listening to Ji Qinglin's questions, Pei Ruohai's face did not change at all, and he seemed to be prepared for these questions.
"I guess Elder Ji can also guess that there are two other items:
The first is that I hope to initially join the circle of cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce. I really didn’t expect that Elder Ji is actually the master of President Jiang Chen, the Corpse Ancestor of Nanhua District. How disrespectful! We in Xichang District have no intention of becoming enemies with each other, so we naturally hope that everyone can work together.
The second one is my unsatisfactory brother. He didn’t understand the situation and went to Nanhua District to cause trouble. As a result, he has been imprisoned by President Jiang Chen to this day. I also asked Elder Ji to say a word to free my brother. It hurt the harmony among the chambers of commerce. "
What Pei Ruohai said is also true. He really did not expect that Ji Qinglin and the president of Nanhua District have a master-disciple relationship. This matter is much more complicated. On the one hand, it means that the friendly relationship between the two chambers of commerce is almost unbreakable; on the other hand, it is also true. It shows that Ji Qinglin is not just a keeper of Xindong Street.
The master of the Corpse Ancestor in Nanhua District means that both his age and his cultivation level are far beyond his imagination.
From a personal or chamber of commerce perspective, there was no need to go against Ji Qinglin or Xindong Street, so I thought of using the night bar as an olive branch to establish friendly relations.
Ji Qinglin nodded slightly and said:
"What President Pei said is true. The request is human nature. I should have agreed. However, there is one thing I want to verify with President Pei."
"Speaking."
"Before the Cultivation Competition, I was assassinated by three hired killers. I wonder if this matter has anything to do with Xichang District?"
Pei Ruohai frowned slightly when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Ji Qinglin came up and asked the most embarrassing question. He wanted to deny it directly, but after a moment of hesitation, he knew that this lie was not easy to round up, so he nodded and said:
"I can't confirm it, but it is indeed possible that it was my brother."
Unexpectedly, Pei Ruohai would dare to admit it. Ji Qinglin asked:
"Then what does President Pei think should be done?"
"Well, if it is really confirmed that it was my brother who committed the crime, the punishment will naturally be decided by Elder Ji. However, seeing that Brother Yu doesn't understand the situation, I hope Elder Ji will deal with it leniently."
Ji Qinglin said in his heart that he actually had no evidence, but at this point, he still had to take advantage, so he smiled and said:
"President Pei will really ask me difficult questions. Of course I agree to the first request. It is best if we can cooperate with each other. Then we are more or less our own people. It is even more inappropriate for me to punish your brother. But After all, this is a hired murder, and if you report it to the secret police, your brother will inevitably be imprisoned. So I have to wait until the cooperative relationship between the chambers of commerce is truly established before I can release your brother."
Hearing that Ji Qinglin was not prepared to deal with Pei Ruotao, Pei Ruohai secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked:
"May I ask when Elder Ji will be able to establish the cooperative relationship between the chambers of commerce and let Yu brother go?"
Ji Qinglin sighed and said awkwardly:
"This is a bit difficult at the moment. President Pei, you think, if you want to confirm the relationship, I have to accept the olive branch you offered, that is, agree to take over the night bar. Only in this way can everyone agree, but you have also seen this small shop, I’m really strapped for money. Just now Boss He said it only costs 40 cents. I was afraid of being frightened by the price, so I didn’t dare to ask how much it cost, so I guess I’ll have to wait until I save enough money to purchase a nightclub.”
Even Pei Ruohai, who was smiling, couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
I thought that by the time you save enough money through this small shop, Pei Ruotao might have died in Nanhua District.
However, we are not fools. We naturally understand the true intention expressed by Ji Qinglin, so we can only accompany the acting and say:
"Elder Ji is joking. Since we will soon be a family, it doesn't matter who pays. I am willing to pay the 40% of the money for Elder Ji. I wonder what Elder Ji wants?"
Pei Ruotao was very thoughtful when it came to the territory. After all, the Night Bar was close to the junction. If there really was a fight, Xichang District would never be able to unite the two families. Instead of losing it, it would be better to sell it at a loss as a favor. However, he didn't expect Ji Qinglin to be a cent. I don’t want to spend the money either.
However, from the president's point of view, if Ji Qinglin can really unite the four associations, the benefits he will bring to the Chamber of Commerce will never be comparable to this small amount of money.
But Pei Ruohai is still skeptical about whether Ji Qinglin has this ability.
Ji Qinglin was embarrassed and said:
"Hiss, this is not good. I won the night bar for nothing and asked President Pei to pay for it. So, let me borrow it."
Pei Ruohai said in his heart that it was strange that he could pay back the money just because of his free prostitution habit. He said that borrowing money is nothing more than not leaving a favor to yourself to pay for you.
"Ahem, okay, let me lend it to Elder Ji. When will Elder Ji decide to hand it over?"
"Since it involves whether you can release your younger brother as soon as possible, I think the sooner the better. The specific arrangements will depend on President Pei and Boss He."
"Okay, I will arrange the handover as soon as possible. Today is a private visit, so I won't stop at Elder Ji's place any longer. When the new store opens, I will go to congratulate you. Then I will discuss the cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce in detail with Elder Ji."
"President Pei, please."
After sending Pei Ruohai away who had come in a low profile and left in a hurry, Ji Qinglin took a deep breath, turned around and asked Yu Ye, who was already stunned:
"How is it? Have you learned it?"
Yuye's boss stared blankly, and nodded blankly:
"Once you learn it, it's free whoring and free sex."
"Ahem, how can you talk about this?! This is called negotiating under favorable conditions for the teacher."
Even Chiye couldn't stand it any longer and showed up to complain:
"Master, if you do this business, if you go to a night bar in the future, you won't even have your underwear left when you come out."
Thank you for your reading and support! (Ji Qinglin: No one understands free prostitution better than me.)
