However, this was just a prelude. It was nothing. The big trouble was still to come. These were all normal means, so Zhou Huojian couldn't find any reason. After all, whether it was the raw material supplier's request to settle the payment first or someone investigating the hygiene situation in the store, these were all within the normal range.
But what happened next was beyond the normal range. Every day, a group of migrant workers came to the store and filled the hall. Each person asked for a cold dish and began to drink beer. A bottle of beer and a plate of cold dishes were drunk from the opening of the restaurant in the morning to the closing time in the evening. Even if the hall was only filled, the private rooms were empty. However, many people who came to the restaurant to eat directly turned around and left when they saw this situation!
No matter how Zhou Huojian explained, the customers no longer came. It couldn't be helped. Zhou Huojian could only persuade these men to stop eating here. After all, they came to eat. Although they ate less and took a long time, it was not illegal. Zhou Huojian really couldn't do anything to them. He could only beg for mercy.
In fact, Zhou Huojian also faintly understood that these people had the Sui Family behind them, but it couldn't be helped. The Sui Family had a big business in Mount Jing. Zhou Huojian, an outsider, couldn't afford to offend them.
Under good persuasion, these migrant workers finally spilled the truth. They came here to work because they were hired. They didn't need to work and get paid. They could make money just by sitting for a whole day. Who didn't want to do this kind of work?
In desperation, Zhou Huojian had to find the Sui Family's people to intercede. He didn't expect that just because he offended the second generation of the Sui Family, it would cause such a big trouble. However, the Sui Family's people didn't let go at all. They obviously wanted to kill Zhou Huojian.
Provoking the Sui Family's prestige in Mount Jing made the Sui Family have the intention of killing the chicken to scare the monkey. So, no matter what Zhou Huojian said, they didn't change their original intention. Zhou Huojian couldn't be helped. He had to end the restaurant's business, sell the house, and leave Mount Jing. This matter ended with the Sui Family's victory.
Zhou Huojian left Mount Jing sadly and opened the restaurant in Song Jiang. Zhou Huojian inquired in advance. This place was not under the Sui Family's sphere of influence. This was Bao Sanli's territory, so Zhou Huojian was relieved to reopen the restaurant here.
Moreover, in order to prevent the recurrence of the tragedy, as soon as Zhou Huojian's restaurant opened, he went to the Ming Yang Security Company....................
Zhou Huo.......................... e..... Although the Ming Yang Security Company was a big company, they might not be interested in his vouchers. In fact, no senior executive of the Ming Yang Security Company had taken these vouchers to the restaurant for a long time. This made Zhou Huojian slightly disappointed. However, Zhou Huojian felt that as long as he tirelessly delivered vouchers every now and then, even though it wasn't enough to make people look at him in a different light, at least he could get familiar with him!
This voucher was not worth a lot of money, but it was not a bad thing to be too polite! Zhou Huojian was a person who had suffered a big loss in Mount Jing's Sui Family. As the saying goes, you learn from your mistakes. For the big forces in these cities, Zhou Huojian didn't dare to neglect. Otherwise, if he repeated the same mistake, he wouldn't even know how he died.
However, before Zhou Huojian came to Song Jiang to do business, he also inquired and understood a few of Song Jiang's local friends who had a good relationship with him. He knew the background and reputation of the Ming Yang Security Company very well.
The boss of the Ming Yang Bao 'an Industrial Company, Bao Sanli, used to be a big gangster in Song Jiang. However, he later turned over a new leaf and engaged in a proper industry, establishing this Ming Yang Security Industrial Company. However, this person's influence in Song Jiang's underworld was quite shocking. If one wanted to do business here in Song Jiang, it was impossible to offend Bao Sanli!
However, the reputation of the Ming Yang Security Company was exceptionally good. He learned from a few business friends that although the fees of this Ming Yang Security Company were more expensive than other small security companies, it was indeed worth it! The bosses of the entertainment industry in Song Jiang City had a bill in their hearts. Although the cost of the security personnel hired by the Ming Yang Security Company was higher than the ordinary scattered security personnel, once there was a problem, they would really solve it for you!
Before the Ming Yang Security Company's security personnel were hired, these entertainment industry bosses also recruited some security personnel themselves. The salary was indeed low, but these people were typical masters who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Usually, when they saw the weak, they dared to say a few words. If they really encountered the gangsters, they immediately became timid and hid in the side and didn't dare to make a sound.
After changing to the Ming Yang Security Company's security personnel, this situation was gone. As long as it was a small gangster in Song Jiang, no one dared to make trouble in front of the Ming Yang Security Company's people. As long as the Ming Yang Security Company's people were present, no matter how fierce they were, they would immediately be honest!
Therefore, the amount of money needed to hire security guards was negligible. If it weren't for these people, the gangsters would have destroyed more than this amount of things.
After learning this news, Zhou Huojian went to the Ming Yang Security Company to hire twenty security personnel before his restaurant opened. It was reasonable to say that this was a restaurant, not a nightclub or an entertainment city. He didn't need so many security personnel. Ten were enough. However, Zhou Huojian didn't lack this money. In his opinion, this was nothing. When he opened the shop in Mount Jing, not to mention giving gifts to the Sui Family, even dealing with the local bullies on the streets cost more than this amount!
So even so, Zhou Huojian's heart was not at ease! As a matter of fact, although he hired a lot of security personnel, they were also working for him formally. Therefore, Zhou Huojian still felt that he should build a relationship with the Ming Yang's senior management!
He had suffered a loss before, so this time he felt that he should be careful. As long as he built a relationship, even if he accidentally offended them later, he believed that they wouldn't be as ruthless as the Sui Family! After all, with a friendship, it would be easier to talk.
It was just that Zhou Huojian didn't have the opportunity to contact the senior management of the Ming Yang Security Company. He was an outsider who was unfamiliar with the place. How could he build a relationship? Just as he was worried, he didn't expect a ready-made opportunity to come to him. However, what made his intestines turn green with regret was that before he could build a relationship with them, his sister-in-law's third uncle's sister-in-law had offended a vice president of the Ming Yang Security Company!
Although a vice president of a company might not be able to set off any waves, this matter should be resolved under his apology. But what made Zhou Huojian shocked was Jing Xiaolu's age!
In Zhou Huojian's opinion, Jing Xiaolu was at most twenty-five years old! It was a bit strange to sit in the position of a vice president at this age! At this time, there were only two things in Zhou Huojian's mind. One was that this Jing Xiaolu was a rich second generation, and the other was … she might be the lover of a big boss in the Ming Yang Security Company …
So when Zhou Huojian thought of this, he didn't dare to neglect. His attitude became more respectful, so Zhou Huojian didn't do anything while Jing Xiaolu was eating. Since Jing Xiaolu didn't want him to disturb her, then he would wait for her in the hall. After she finished eating, he would say a few good words. Most probably, this matter would come to an end, right?
Zhou Huojian sighed in his heart. If my sister-in-law didn't have an affair with me, why would I care about her third uncle's sister-in-law? It's really harmful. I have to teach my sister-in-law a lesson when I go back tonight. I won't let her introduce just anyone to me …
Seeing that Zhou Huojian insisted on treating her to a meal, Jing Xiaolu had a headache. "President Zhou, this voucher is also issued by you. I will use this voucher to pay the bill. It's also your treat, right?"
"This … Of course, of course!" Zhou Huojian saw that Jing Xiaolu insisted, so he couldn't say anything more. He turned to Xiao Bai and said, "Xiao Bai, why aren't you calculating for Vice President Jing?"
"Okay." Xiao Bai nodded quickly. He tapped a few times on the computer and said, "Vice President Jing, you spent three hundred and sixteen yuan. After the discount, I will charge you three hundred yuan."
Jing Xiaolu smiled slightly and handed over the three hundred yuan voucher.
Xiao Bai quickly took it respectfully and put it into the wallet of the cash register. Zhou Huojian gave Xiao Bai an appreciative look. In fact, there was no discount when using the voucher, but Zhou Huojian didn't want to trouble Jing Xiaolu for a long time because of sixteen yuan because there were only one hundred denomination vouchers. There was no small amount. If he wanted to pay, he could only pay another voucher. But in that case, it would inevitably make people feel that there were some overbearing terms. Although it was nothing for ordinary diners, since the voucher was free anyway, Zhou Huojian was very concerned about Jing Xiaolu's thoughts.
