When Zhang Shun heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. Then he turned his eyes and immediately understood Zhao Hai's meaning. Zhao Hai's words were very clear. They can destroy the Black Snake Gang, but the people behind the Black Snake Gang would need their help to deal with them. As long as they can deal with the people behind the Black Snake Gang, then all of the income from the buffet restaurant would belong to them.
Naturally, Zhang Shun didn't think that this' them 'was referring to the people present. Zhang Shun was very clear that these people didn't have that kind of ability. The only one who had this kind of ability was him.
Zhang Shun looked at Zhao Hai, then he looked at the people around him. He was very clear that Zhao Hai wanted Li Cheng and the others to lean on the Zhang Family.
The other Cultivators also understood Zhao Hai's meaning. They weren't fools. They didn't think that Li Cheng and the others would believe that they, as Outer Disciples, could contend with an Inner Disciple. And the only one who could contend with an Inner Disciple was Zhang Shun. Because of this, they all looked at Zhang Shun.
When Zhang Shun saw that they were looking at him, he understood what they meant. He turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister Zhao, since Boss Li has handed this matter over to you, then I'll explain it to you. You want to take over the Black Snake Gang's territory, and all of the income from those shops will belong to us. But as far as I know, the Black Snake Gang's territory isn't small. It's the size of an entire street. That shop is only one of their businesses, how do you plan to deal with the other businesses?"
Zhao Hai looked at Zhang Shun and said, "I'll tell you this, Brother Zhang. Although the Black Snake Gang has a street, they don't have any shops on that street. All of the shops have been rented out by them. They only collect rent, so their income isn't much. What Li Cheng wants isn't the rent of the shops, but the territory behind the Black Snake Gang. Li Cheng wants to develop in the future, and it's impossible to develop with just a small courtyard. Therefore, the rent can all be given to you, but the house of the Black Snake Gang belongs to Li Cheng."
Zhang Shun nodded, then he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "That's fine. But I have a question. How much income can such a shop make? If the income is too little, then this matter isn't worth the risk."
When Zhao Hai heard Zhang Shun, he smiled faintly. Then he turned his head to Li Cheng. Li Cheng hesitated for a moment before he nodded. Then Zhao Hai turned his head to Zhang Shun and said, "Since Li Cheng agreed, then I'll tell you the truth. Don't look down on this shop, but do you know how much money it has made since it opened? Just a little more than a month. "
When Zhang Shun heard Zhao Hai, his eyes couldn't help but light up as he said, "How much can it make? Ten thousand Jade Essences? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "That's too little, guess again."
Zhang Shun's expression changed, then he said, "Fifty thousand Jade Essences?" A business of fifty thousand Jade Essences a month, this was already a lot. Zhang Shun's guess was already very bold.
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "You don't need to guess anymore. Just multiply the number by ten."
"Five hundred thousand!?" Zhang Shun and the other people in Eight Fantasy City exclaimed. Most importantly, the number that Zhao Hai said was too shocking. Such a small shop actually made five hundred thousand in just a month. This was too amazing.
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Correct, five hundred thousand. But this is just the gross income, not the net income. Through me, Li Cheng was able to get some cheap materials, meat and vegetables. Because of this, they opened this shop. After deducting the cost of materials and labor, the net income of the shop should be about four hundred thousand. This number isn't small."
Zhang Shun took a deep breath, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "You're saying that they got some cheap materials through you. If they don't use those cheap materials, then how much can the shop make?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "That's hard to say. If they don't get those cheap materials, then they might not be able to make any money. You can see that the shop uses all kinds of medicines and wines. If they don't get the materials from me, then the shop wouldn't be able to make any money. Excluding labor, it's already good enough that they don't lose money."
Zhang Shun took a deep breath, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "But where did you get those materials? If you don't supply us with materials in the future, then what should we do?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Although I supply you with materials at a much cheaper price compared to the market, in fact, I'm still making a profit. If I only supply them, then I'll make less money. If the new shop opens, then I'll supply more materials. This way, I'll be able to make more money. Do you think I'll go against the Jade Essence? Therefore, you don't have to worry about the supply. "
Zhang Shun nodded. Zhao Hai looked at him and said, "But let's make things clear. My relationship with Li Cheng is very good, but I don't have any friendship with any of you here. Therefore, this new store will be handed over to Li Cheng to manage. Of course, they won't take a single cent of the profits. The main reason for letting them manage the store is because we're afraid that in the future, there will be a situation where the two stores will lower the price and run on each other. If Mr. Zhang agrees, then this matter will be easily solved. Li Cheng and I will eliminate the Black Snake Gang, and the trouble that comes from eliminating the Black Snake Gang will be solved by you.
Isn't this a bit too much? "Zhang Shun looked at Zhao Hai. After some time, he laughed and said," Not at all, not at all. Alright, we'll do as you say. You'll deal with the Black Snake Gang. After dealing with them, open the shop as soon as possible. As for the people behind the Black Snake Gang, let us deal with them. "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, then he raised his glass and gave a toast to Zhang Shun, "Then Brother Zhang, let's have a happy cooperation."
Zhang Shun and Li Cheng also raised their glasses. After clinking their glasses, the two said in unison, "Happy cooperation."
Although the three of them clinked their glasses and didn't bring the other people from Eight Fantasy City, they weren't angry at all. This was because they knew that it was impossible for the Zhang Family to not give them any benefits. They might even be able to establish a relationship with the Zhang Family through this matter. For them, this would be very beneficial.
After discussing business, the only thing left to do was to drink. Everyone was very happy with this meal. After drinking until midnight, Zhang Shun and the others left the buffet restaurant and returned to Eight Fantasy City.
Upon returning to Eight Fantasy City, Zhang Shun called the others to his room. He looked at them and said, "Everyone, I'm sure you understand Li Cheng and Zhao Hai's intentions. You should also know that Li Cheng and Zhao Hai wanted our Zhang family to take the lead. But I didn't expect that the store's income would be so high. Let me tell you the bottom line, the store's income isn't a small amount for our Zhang family. But I can assure you that the Zhang family won't treat you unfairly. But the specific situation will have to wait until I discuss it with the family before I tell you, so you don't have to worry about it." Zhang Shun nodded.
A Cultivator smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, don't worry. We're very clear that we're only in the same room as Brother Zhang. Otherwise, Li Cheng and the others wouldn't have invited us. So Brother Zhang doesn't need to worry about us."
Zhang Shun nodded, then he said, "Brothers, I'll have to discuss this matter with my family as soon as possible. So I'll be taking my leave first." Everyone nodded, then Zhang Shun left. Everyone followed him out of the room. Zhang Shun went to the Zhang Family's residence while the others returned to their rooms. However, they couldn't sleep well.
When Zhang Shun returned to the Zhang Family's residence, he immediately went to see the Zhang Family's Patriarch. The Patriarch was Zhang Shun's grandfather. Zhang Shun's grandfather was already resting, but Zhang Shun didn't care too much. He directly went to his grandfather's room and said, "Grandfather, I have something to tell you."
Zhang Shun's grandfather already heard Zhang Shun's footsteps. Now that he heard Zhang Shun, he opened his mouth and said, "Come in." Zhang Shun pushed the door and went inside.
Zhang Shun's grandfather was wearing a coat as he sat in the living room. He looked at Zhang Shun and said, "Kid, why are you so impatient? Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhang Shun replied, "Grandfather, it's not that I'm impatient, but this matter is very important. I have no choice but to look for you at this time. Do you know about the buffet restaurant in Eight Fantasy City? Today, I went to their place for a drink, and they talked about something. "Zhang Shun then told the whole story, including the conditions that Zhao had put forward.
When Zhang Shun's grandfather heard Zhang Shun, he couldn't help but stare. Then he said with an expression of disbelief, "That small shop can earn several hundred thousand Jade Essences in just a month? How is that possible? They wouldn't be lying to you, right? "
Zhang Shun shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not. Grandfather, think about it, if they really dared to deceive us, then they wouldn't be able to survive in Eight Fantasy City. Therefore, I think that what they said is true. A monthly income of several hundred thousand Jade Essences isn't a small amount, it's very important for our Zhang Family. Therefore, I've already promised them that the Zhang Family will help Liu Yang deal with him. The Black Snake Gang will be dealt with by them, while the store's income will be given to us.
Zhang Shun's grandfather nodded and said, "That's good. However, the supply channel is controlled by Zhao Hai, which is a problem. But this is also very simple. We can buy their goods from other places and do some calculations to see if they're lying. However, I don't think that they would lie about this matter. We can deal with Liu Yang's matter, and at worst, we'll just give him some of the profits. As for your roommates, how do you plan to deal with them?"
Zhang Shun replied, "They already know about this matter. If we don't take care of them and they go out and talk about it, then it's inevitable that someone from the gang would come forward to take a piece of the cake. Therefore, the most important thing right now is to not let them talk about this matter. I plan to give each of them some Jade Essence, ten thousand each. As for Liu Yang, if Grandfather doesn't want to deal with him, then you can give him a hundred thousand Jade Essence every month. That's only a hundred thousand Jade Essence. The Zhang Family will still get the majority of the Jade Essence."
Zhang Shun's grandfather nodded, then he looked at Zhang Shun and said, "Do you really think that Li Cheng and the others wouldn't take a single cent of profit and would just help us for free?"
Zhang Shun shook his head and said, "Of course not. They will certainly make some profits, but the profits won't be much. But isn't this better? As for the Black Snake Gang, it's just a small gang that can be destroyed. I know a little about the Black Snake Gang. As Zhao Hai said, the Black Snake Gang used to be in the food and medicine business, but it wasn't very profitable. Plus, they collected rent, so I'm afraid they didn't even make a million jade essences a year. What they could give Liu Yang was even less. Now that we can give him ten times more, I don't believe that Liu Yang would disagree. If he really doesn't agree, Grandpa, then we don't need to be polite to him. He's just an Inner Court Disciple. Even if the Elder took a fancy to him, I believe that the Elder wouldn't fall out with our Zhang Family for him. Moreover, we can just give Liu Yang's share to the Elder and that's it. "Zhao Hai nodded his head and said," I don't think that Liu Yang would agree. Even if he doesn't agree, Grandpa, then we don't need to be polite to him.
Zhang Shun's grandfather nodded, then he looked at Zhang Shun and said, "Alright, what you said is very good. You're very thorough. Let's do as you say. I'll deal with Liu Yang's matter, but you'll have to deal with Li Cheng's matter. Remember, Li Cheng can make money, but you need to have some control over them. You can't let them lead you by the nose."
Zhang Shun nodded, then he said, "Grandfather, then I'll go back first. I want to go back and talk to the people in my house. I want to give them 10,000 Jade Essences a month. Tongjin, do you think you can give them an identity of the Zhang Family? This way, the Zhang Family will protect them. They can also be regarded as a member of the Zhang Family. This way, they won't go out and talk about it. As long as they keep their mouths shut, then nothing will happen to them."
Zhang Shun's grandfather nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to you. Also, remember to tell Li Cheng and the others to hurry up and deal with the Black Snake Gang. If they don't have enough people, then we can even help them. We need to deal with the Black Snake Gang in the shortest time possible, so as to avoid any mistakes."
Zhang Shun nodded, then he said, "It depends on this matter. The main character is still Zhao Hai. That Zhao Hai was able to silently rescue the person who was kidnapped by the Black Snake Gang. Moreover, he also knows a lot of things. I think that he must have captured the people from the Black Snake Gang and obtained a confession from them. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know such details, and even more impossible for him to know that the Black Snake Gang was behind this in such a short time."
Zhang Shun's grandfather nodded and said, "Pay attention to that Zhao Hai. Investigate him, but don't offend him." Zhang Shun nodded, then he gave his grandfather a salute before turning around to leave.
