Qin Lang spends these days at "Food is the Heaven" in the morning, and after noon, at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, he comes to Taipingqiao Casino.
Since he agreed to Su Wenqing and received double his salary, he naturally had to be a good general manager, and he also had to lead the team and select someone to replace him.
In fact, after he became accustomed to being a decent person, he was indeed a little tired of his former self. At least ordinary people would not keep away from his current self.
This feeling of being popular and respected cannot be bought with money.
"Brother Lang, everything has been arranged for today. Last night, the guest at table 5 got drunk and made a scene for half the night. Fortunately, he persuaded him to go down..."
"Anything left to chance is that we run a casino, so we have to be humane, otherwise we won't be able to survive in this business."
"Yes, you are right. The reputation and service of our casino are first-class. We have more customers now than before. It is the profit..."
"That's caused by the general environment, not our business strategy. If you don't believe me, you can make a statistics. Is the average money we make from each customer much less than before? Also, the customers who borrow money from the counter Is it borrowing less every time than before?" Qin Lang said.
"What does it matter?"
"You can come to the casino to spend money if you can earn money and be able to pay it back. If you can't earn money and you can't pay it back, will you still come? Even if you lend him the money, he won't pay it back by then. You borrowed it." What's the use?" Qin Lang said, "Remember, we are seeking money and not harming human lives. This is the bottom line principle, do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand." The subordinates nodded and bowed. Although the management styles of Qin Lang and Feng Hua were completely different, especially for money lending and Cui Dai, the methods were gentler. The business of the gambling house was naturally much better than when Feng Hua was there. .
And old gamblers are more convinced of Qin Lang's credibility.
Therefore, many gamblers from the New Taipingqiao Casino came back. In just half a month, the casino's business improved by at least 30%.
This is the skill. It turns out that no matter how dissatisfied Feng Hua's subordinates are, they have to be convinced. This is comparing people to others, which makes people mad.
"Brother Lang, there is a man who calls himself Uncle Tai and wants to see you." An errand boy knocked on the door and came in to report.
"Uncle Tai?" Qin Lang was stunned. Among the people he knew, there was only one person named "Uncle Tai".
That was the old butler serving in front of the old man.
Why did he come here for nothing? Could it be that the old man is dying?
Although Qin Lang has turned against Qin Laoqi and Qin Xiong, it is not that he is not concerned about the situation of the Qin family, or even cares about it, but that he knows the father and son too well, and is afraid that they will not be kind to him, so he must be careful. Son.
The old man was not in good health, and it was said that he would definitely not be able to survive this winter. He was also worried. If the old man left, would he go back and kowtow, or would he not go back?
Although there was no overnight feud between father and son, he was already chilled by how the old man treated their mother and son.
What's more, this old man has done so many evil things, and he has no idea how much virtue he accumulated in his previous life to be able to live to this age.
Of course, a son never tells his father's fault. There are some things that a son can only think about but cannot say out loud.
"Invite him in." After thinking about it, he realized that it was okay to avoid him. If something really happened, what was supposed to come would still come.
After a while, Uncle Tai came in.
"Second Young Master, Qi Master is dying. He asked me to come over and ask you to go back and see you for the last time." Uncle Tai said when he saw Qin Lang.
Although Qin Lang had already guessed this was the case, he did not have any mood swings. Instead, he asked: "Did he ask you to come?"
Uncle Tai hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Master Qi is already unconscious, but he is mumbling the name of the second young master."
"Does the boss know you are coming?" Qin Lang was silent for three seconds and asked.
"The eldest son knows."
"Okay, you go back first. He probably won't die in a while. I will go back before he closes his eyes." Qin Lang said.
"Second Young Master, you'd better go back as soon as possible." Uncle Tai reminded, although Qin Laoqi is dead, he really won't die so soon.
"I know, see you off."
Qin Lang was a little confused. Although he was prepared for the news, he had no definite answer in his heart as to whether he should go back to see this last time.
"Lang Ge..."
"Get out!" Qin Lang pointed at the person and shouted. He wanted to be quiet at this moment.
He really wanted to find someone to talk to about his inner helplessness. Many times, people who appear strong on the outside are actually fragile on the inside.
Qin Lang looks like a tough guy on the outside, but he is actually weak on the inside. Many people misunderstand this.
It's just that he wrapped himself up well so that no one could see it.
Lingling...
The phone in the office rang, but Qin Lang just sat there without reaching out to answer it until the phone stopped ringing.
After a while, the phone rang again.
Qin Lang still didn't move at all. He didn't know whether he didn't hear it or just didn't want to pick it up.
Until the third time it rang, Qin Lang still didn't pick it up...
Qin Lang locked himself in the office, neither coming out nor letting anyone in. It was obvious that he really had trouble making a decision.
The intertwining of love and hate here cannot be understood by those who have not put themselves in their shoes.
"Miss Xiangning, why are you here?"
"Where's Qin Lang?"
"Lang Ge is in the office and has been locked in alone for more than an hour?"
"What happened?" Jiang Rou frowned. She made three calls but didn't answer them, so she ran over to take a look.
"It seems something happened to Mr. Qin Qi."
"His father?" Jiang Rou understood that Qin Lang must have encountered something difficult to solve, so he locked himself up and didn't even answer her calls. Of course, that didn't include her. He didn't want anyone's calls. Take it.
"Take me there." Jiang Rou ordered. She never came to the gambling house, so naturally she didn't know where Qin Lang's office was.
"Miss Xiangning, come with me."
The office was locked. Qin Lang really didn't want anyone to disturb him, but when he heard Jiang Rou outside, he opened the door.
"Xiaorou, why are you here?" Qin Lang asked unexpectedly.
"I called your office three times, but no one answered. I thought something was wrong with you, so I came over to take a look." Jiang Rou explained.
"Did you call me?" Qin Lang said in surprise.
"Your subordinate said that you were in the office the whole time, didn't you hear?" Jiang Rou thought she heard wrongly, and Qin Lang was not deaf.
"Maybe I was too focused on some things and didn't pay attention..." Qin Lang smiled. He really didn't notice the phone ringing. He was thinking about whether he should go to see Qin Laoqi.
"What's wrong with you? You look so bad?" Jiang Rou asked.
"It's okay, maybe it's because I didn't sleep last night."
"Don't lie to me. Did something happen to Mr. Qin Qi?" Jiang Rou pointed it out directly, "You want to go back and have a look, but you can't get over the hurdle in your heart, can you?"
"How did you know?"
"Your men are not deaf or blind. What's your situation? Can they not see or hear?" Jiang Judao.
"Why are they telling you this..." Qin Lang said displeased.
"Why do you blame them? They also care about you." Jiang Ju said, "Is Mr. Qin Qi not doing well?"
Qin Lang hesitated and nodded.
"I'll go back with you." Jiang Rou said directly without making much sense.
"Xiaorou, what are you..." Qin Lang was shocked.
"Since you can't make a decision, I'll help you make it. Whether you regret it or not in the future, this decision has nothing to do with you." Jiang Judao.
"No, this is my business, how can I get you involved?" Qin Lang was moved, but he was unwilling to let Jiang Rou get involved in the Qin family's housework.
"What should I say? We are also friends. When friends have something to do, isn't it right to help each other?" Jiang Ju said.
"But you know, if you come back with me, what does that mean?"
"Do you think that if I go back with you, you will just meet your parents?" Jiang Rou smiled slightly.
Qin Lang nodded.
Qin Laoqi is now considered to be on his deathbed. At this time, he takes Jiang Rou back. Doesn't that mean that?
Otherwise, at this moment, he could take any girl to see her father for the last time.
"Aren't you willing?" Jiang Rou asked.
"I, I..." Qin Lang suddenly felt an unspeakable joy and emotion filling his entire chest.
At this moment, all the anxiety and worries disappeared.
"Let's go."
"Xiaorou, did you call me to find something?"
"Sister Lan said that you haven't been home for dinner in a few days and asked me to ask you to go home for dinner." Jiang Rou explained.
"Oh, that's right. I'm afraid tonight will be..."
"It's okay, there are more opportunities to go home for dinner." Jiang Rou smiled softly, "We'd better go to your house quickly."
"Okay, I'll drive." Qin Lang nodded.
…
During dinner in the evening, Zhou Sen took a look and didn't see Jiang Rou. He asked, "What's going on? Xiaorou didn't come back?"
Bai Yulan chuckled: "I called back and said that he and Qin Lang went to the Qin family's old house."
"Qin Laoqi is dying at the Qin family's old house?" Zhou Sen couldn't help being surprised when he heard this. There was only one reason why Qin Lang took the initiative to go to the Qin family's old house.
In the entire Qin family, the only one who has a direct blood relationship with him is the old man Qin Laoqi.
Qin Laoqi's health was not good when you arrived, so it was not surprising that he suddenly left that day. So you don’t need to guess too much to figure this out.
"Xiaorou didn't say anything, maybe it's not easy to say." Bai Yulan said.
"Leave some food for them." Zhou Sen ordered.
"Already kept."
"Then let's eat." Zhou Sen greeted.
"Are you worried that they will conflict with Qin Xiong in the past?" After dinner, Bai Yulan brought a glass of water into the study.
"With Xiaorou following me, I'm not too worried about this. I'm just worried that Qin Xiong will get into trouble." Zhou Sen said.
"Well, but you just sealed off Qunfang Building. If Qin Lang and our relationship get into a quarrel, something might really happen." Bai Yulan said.
"If I knew they were there, I should have sent someone to follow them," Zhou Sen said.
"After all, they are brothers. At this time, they shouldn't do evil things to their biological brothers, not to mention that Xiaorou is still here?"
"If Qin Xiong dares to touch Xiaorou, I will risk my life to take down the Qin family!" A dangerous cold light flashed in Zhou Sen's eyes.
"No, don't worry too much, or else send someone to guard outside the Qin family's old house?" Bai Yulan said.
"Well, I'll make a call and ask Boss Qing to send two people over." Zhou Sen nodded. This is a private matter. We can't use the police, we can only use the power and manpower of the gang.
…
The old residence of the Qin family.
Qin Laoqi really couldn't escape this time. Although he used ginseng soup to survive, he had already reached the point where his oil was exhausted.
】
Just one breath left.
Regardless of whether it is Chinese medicine or Western medicine, at this point, there is no way to save it.
But the old man couldn't swallow this tone. He obviously couldn't let go of something, until Qin Lang took Jiang Rou back to his old house.
Qin Laoqi, who was lying on the heated kang, heard Qin Lang's voice, and his sunken eye sockets slowly opened. The vitreous body was already turbid, and he could only see a little light and the figure in the lake.
"Lang..."
"Dad, I am Qin Lang, do you have anything to say?" Qin Lang hesitated for a long time, and finally shouted.
Even if he doesn't admit it, it can't change the fact. Besides, he has been calling her for more than 20 years, so this sound is very familiar to him.
"Lang, dad..." Qin Laoqi opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice was very low, Qin Lang could only lean down and put his ear close.
There is a saying that when a person is about to die, his words are also good.
After all, Qin Laoqi regretted severing the father-son relationship with Qin Lang. In addition to wanting to see Qin Lang before his death, he also left Qin Lang a sum of money.
The money was deposited in the name of Qin Lang's mother. Only Qin Laoqi knew that no one else, including Qin Xiong and the five concubines, knew.
If Qin Lang doesn't come back, the money will definitely not be in his hands by then, but if he comes back, the money will naturally be his.
Because this is what Qin Laoqi gave to Qin Lang before he died. It contains the personal money saved by Qin Lang's mother, which is reserved for Qin Lang to marry a wife and have children when he grows up.
Qin Laoqi felt guilty for Qin Lang, his second son, so he added some more, and the amount was not small.
Qin Lang knew that after accepting this money, he would have no reason to compete with Qin Xiong for the family property. In fact, he never thought about fighting. In his opinion, the Qin family's business was not a legitimate business. It's just rise and fall. He might have had an idea before, but now he doesn't have that idea at all.
The old man was still thinking about Qin Xiong before he died, fearing that after he died, he would come to Qin Xiong and make a big fuss.
"He gave it to you, do you want to take it back?" Qin Lang handed the deposit receipt to Qin Xiong and Jin Yazhen, who were outside.
Qin Xiong looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
"If you don't take it back, then the money will belong to me. Don't you regret it in the future?" Qin Lang said and was about to put away the voucher.
"Since dad left it to you, it belongs to you. Although you and I don't get along, we won't take it by force." Qin Xiong said with an ashen face.
"It's rare to hear you say something human." Qin Lang said, "I also saw the person. I don't know how long he can hold his breath. Anyway, you don't welcome me, so I will leave first. I will notify you when I die. I."
"Can't you see Dad off for the last time?" Qin Xiong asked, with veins on his neck showing.
"Do I still have a place in this family?"
Qin Xiong clenched his fists and was about to explode when a cry came from inside: "Master, master, wake up..."
Bingcheng's Qin Qiye, who was rampant for a while, finally ended his life.
