It turned out that Cang Ba was not a person's name, but a nickname. This person got his name because he had the appearance of a Tibetan Mastiff and the personality of a Pekingese.
After Zhao Yu saw him, he realized that even though this person was burly, he always nodded and bowed when he spoke.
"Bro Yu, this is absolutely true. I've been brothers with Baldy for so many years, I definitely wouldn't lie to you!" Cang Ba said to Zhao Yu outside the gym. "Our boss is really eager to sell. The accounts are all on the table. You'll understand once you see it!
"Equipment, trainers, whatever, just take over! Even though the membership cards are not counted, the contract between the gym and the commercial building still has four years left. Plus, the rent for this year has already been paid, so it doesn't count! " He pointed at the gym and said, "I've been working here for many years, and it's really popular here! We don't understand why the boss would sell at such a low price! Bro Yu, listen to me. This deal is definitely worth it, and you'll definitely earn a lot of money. "
"Yeah, yeah …"
Baldy, Blondie, and the others all crowded behind Zhao Yu. To them, this was a golden opportunity. If Zhao Yu could really take over the gym, they would be able to live a good life.
But what kind of person was Zhao Yu? In his previous life, he had been on the streets for a long time, so he naturally understood these kinds of tricks. He always felt that there was something fishy about the gym, and that there was no such thing as such a cheap deal in the world.
Thus, before he came, he had already called Zhang Jingfeng and Liang Huan to ask them to help check out the details of the gym to see if there were any problems.
The gym's interior was really high-end, and the words "Deep Breath" were written on the front door. Zhao Yu did not know much about the fitness industry, but he had heard of the name.
Also, the location of the gym was too good. The fifth floor of Huabei Commercial Building was definitely a synonym for "high-end." Many people chose to come here to work out, not to work out, but to show off.
After entering the gym, as expected, it was in full swing. There were all kinds of fitness equipment with handsome men and beautiful women doing fitness exercises. There were also some strong and muscular male and female coaches giving them professional guidance.
Not long after Zhao Yu and the others entered, a man in a white shirt walked towards them. The man had fair skin and tender flesh. He looked exactly like the young fresh meat that people often talked about.
Cang Ba saw him and quickly introduced him to Zhao Yu. He was the owner of Deep Breath Gym, Mr. Zhang.
Hmm?
Hearing Cang Ba's introduction, Zhao Yu instinctively became alert. Mister Zhang was too young. If he was the manager of the gym, Zhao Yu might have believed him. But if he was a big boss, Zhao Yu would never believe it!
The young Mister Zhang shook hands with Zhao Yu and began to introduce his gym. He talked about the size of the gym, the equipment, the number of trainers, the number of members, and how much money it made every year.
What surprised Zhao Yu was that the size of the gym was indeed beyond his imagination. Whether it was the area or the decoration of the facilities, they were all top-notch. In addition to the ordinary fitness facilities, there was also a yoga studio, a fighting ring, a spinning classroom and so on.
The more surprised Zhao Yu was, the more suspicious he became. The transfer fee of two and a half million was too much. Logically speaking, it would only be reasonable for the transfer fee to be doubled.
"That …" Zhao Yu interrupted and asked, "Mr. Zhang, I don't understand. Why do you want to sell such a profitable business? And in such a hurry? "
"Sigh! Well … "Mr. Zhang seemed to have something difficult to say. He thought for a while and said," It's my family's misfortune! My dad owes a huge gambling debt in Macau. If I don't transfer the money, he'll lose his life! Sigh! Otherwise, how would I be willing to sell this business! "
"Oh, filial son, filial son!" Zhao Yu praised him, but he was cursing in his heart. Such an excuse to owe money was too low. Look, there's definitely something wrong with this gym!
But the more suspicious he was, the more Zhao Yu wanted to know what was going on. He felt that if he could figure out the key issues, he might be able to lower the price even more!
"Come, come to my office!" After walking around, Mr. Zhang extended his hand and gestured, "You can take a look at our financial status. It's all legal!"
"Cough! That goes without saying! " Zang Ba added, "This is Huabei Commercial Building. How can you open a fitness club here without all the paperwork? Hehehe … "
It was the first time Blondie and the others had encountered such a situation. They could only laugh, but could not say a word.
Under Mr. Zhang's signal, everyone walked into his office. The office was not very big, but the decorations were very modern and exquisite.
After everyone found a place to sit, Mr. Zhang began to talk to Zhao Yu about the company's financial status, and showed him all kinds of licenses.
He also said that the news had just been released, and there were already a few people interested in buying. If he was not in a hurry to save someone, he would not have offered such a steep price! So, he hoped that Zhao Yu could make a decision soon.
"Mr. Zhao, to put it bluntly, I just want money now. The sooner I get the money, the less pain my father will have to suffer!" Mr. Zhang said, "So, whoever pays the money first and happily, I will transfer the gym to that person. I've even written the transfer contract!"
"Hehehe …" Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Mister Zhang, you know that this is not a small amount of money. I don't know much about this industry, so I have to think about it!"
"Cough!" Zang Ba said, "Bro Yu, what's there to think about? Our Mr. Zhang always treats people with integrity, so don't worry! "
Just as Zang Ba said this, Zhao Yu's phone suddenly rang. He looked down and saw that the call was from Zhang Jingfeng.
Zhao Yu knew that Zhang Jingfeng must have found something, so he quickly gestured to everyone and walked out of the office to find an empty corner to answer the call.
"Zhao, there's nothing wrong with this gym!" Zhang Jingfeng said on the phone, "The annual net income is at least seven hundred thousand yuan, and it pays taxes legally, operates in a civilized manner. There are no bad records, and there are no property disputes!"
"Oh? Is that so? "Zhao Yu could not believe it.
"There's nothing wrong with the mall either. They signed a five-year contract, and there's still three and a half years before it expires!" Zhang Jingfeng said, "Huabei Commercial Building's lease contract is usually signed once a year. For them to be able to sign a five-year contract, it shows that their relationship with the commercial building's board of directors is not ordinary!"
Tsk tsk …
Hearing this, Zhao Yu could not help but smack his lips. According to his instincts, there was definitely something wrong with the gym. Then … if there was nothing wrong with the surface, then … what about the dark side?
Could it be … that the gym was involved in some illegal activities? They were laundering money for someone else. Now that the money had been laundered, they wanted to run away?
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu gave Mr. Zhang's name to Zhang Jingfeng and asked him to help investigate this person's background, to see if he was telling the truth.
While on the phone, Zhao Yu naturally did not want anyone to hear, so he strolled far away as he was on the phone.
