Meg looked at the determined Raina. After a moment of silence, he nodded, and said, "Alright. Since you're only willing to take 10% of the shares, I won't force you. Out of the 90% shares that I have, I will take out 40% in the future to set up a hot pot fund in our names to help women and children."
"Mm-hmm." Raina heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face again.
Although she didn't know if the new hot pot restaurant could be profitable and expand, she agreed with Meg's suggestion very much. Women and children were the disadvantaged group, and it was even harder for them to survive in the slums. If she could do something for them, it would be very meaningful to her.
Meg walked to the counter, and took out a stack of banknotes from the drawer. He put it in a small money bag, and passed it to Raina. "Here are two million copper coins worth of banknotes. Take it first. If you don't have enough in the future, let me know."
Raina looked at the money bag, and said hesitantly, "I … I'll withdraw it from you in installments. I'll report to you how much money I spend at any time."
"No, you don't have to report anything to me. You just have to treat me to a meal when the restaurant is opened. The management rights of this restaurant will belong to you completely, including how to use the initial investment of two million." Meg shook his head.
"But …" Raina looked at Meg's trusting gaze. She hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take the money bag. She nodded solemnly, and said, "I will use every cent well."
"Don't worry. Don't worry about the budget. If it's not enough, I can add more. If you encounter any problems with the location of the restaurant, I can help you solve it. As for the other matters, I'll leave them to you. " Meg smiled. He didn't know how big the hot pot restaurant Raina wanted to open. If it was a restaurant that could accommodate 1,000 people, it would cost more than two million to set up the restaurant.
Of course, with a population of one million in Chaos City, there was no need to worry about having too many empty seats for the only authentic and affordable hot pot restaurant.
If Raina could control the taste well and not deviate too much, she might even be able to divert a batch of high-spending customers from Amy's.
"A store …" Raina furrowed her brows as she pondered. It would be best to open a store in the Aden Square. It had convenient transportation, and there was a lot of food and beverage businesses.
However, the rent for the shops in the Aden Square was extremely expensive. She wanted to open a large hot pot restaurant that could accommodate more than a thousand people. That way, the customers wouldn't have to wait in line for a seat, and it would be easier to eat hot pot.
Meg also began to think seriously. Mobai next door had reserved a few shops for him. The area was not small, and it was more than enough to open a hotpot restaurant.
However, it was a little strange that a new hot pot restaurant had opened next to Mamy's.
"Ding ling!"
At this moment, a bell rang outside the door.
"Who?" Meg walked to the door doubtfully. When he opened the door, he saw a man wearing a black hat and a loose black windbreaker standing outside. Although the man's hat was pulled down very low, Meg could still recognize him at first glance.
Burton looked up at Meg, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Mak, I need to explain to you about what happened yesterday and solve the problem."
"Come in. Raina is here too." Meg stepped aside to let Burton in.
"Boss, if you have something to discuss, I'll take my leave first." Raina took a look at Burton, who was dressed mysteriously, and prepared to leave first.
Burton took off his hat, and said to Raina, "Miss Raina, right? I'm from the Gray Temple. I'm here on behalf of the Gray Temple to apologize to you and Mr. Meg, and to discuss the related compensation."
"H-hello." Raina was stunned. She recognized that this was the Gray Temple officer who had brought his men to arrest all the bad guys last night, and quickly nodded.
Meg closed the door, and shook his head. "I don't have to compensate, but the Gray Temple should indeed apologize and compensate Raina for the shock and harm she had suffered. This kind of thing shouldn't have happened."
"Miss Raina, on behalf of the Gray Temple, I sincerely apologize to you for what happened yesterday," Burton said sincerely as he bowed 90 degrees to Raina.
"I … It's alright …" Raina waved her hand helplessly, and looked at Meg for help.
Meg was also looking at Burton in shock. He knew that Burton was the head of the Gray Temple's intelligence department, and could be considered a big shot in Chaos City. Yet, he was actually willing to lower himself to apologize to Raina.
Burton straightened his back, and continued to say to Raina, "Yesterday's incident was caused by our negligence. It's also our fault that we didn't detect and eliminate the corruption of the Gray Temple's internal personnel in time. As the law enforcement agency of Chaos City, the Gray Temple failed to fulfill its duty to protect the residents. We have to reflect on this and apologize to you. "
"Mm-hm. Thank you for coming to save us last night, and for treating my injuries." Raina nodded quickly. She was a little dazed.
"What's the compensation?" Meg asked with a smile. He was a little curious about what kind of compensation Burton was going to offer since he was here to apologize.
Raina quickly shook her head, and said, "It's alright. There's no need for compensation … That big sister had already cured me yesterday."
"Regarding our mistake yesterday, the Gray Temple has decided to compensate you with a shop under the perpetrator's name. This is the full set of documents, including the property ownership certificate and the land ownership certificate. After the Gray Temple and the city lord's castle's confirmation, that shop belongs to you from now on." Burton took out a thick kraft paper bag from his coat, and handed it to Raina with both hands.
"This …" Raina looked at Meg with a little fear.
Meg smiled, and said, "Take it. This is the price that that bastard should pay for everything he did to you. The Gray Temple is just passing it to you."
He was very curious about which shop the Gray Temple was giving Raina. However, as long as it was in the Aden Square, it would be worth at least 100,000 copper coins. It was a huge income for Raina.
Raina heard that, and reached out to take the paper bag. Then, she looked at Burton, and said, "Thank you."
"This is what you deserve." Burton also smiled, and then left.
"This was originally the Lord's apology gift to you." Burton lowered his hat at the door, and looked at Meg softly.
"You know, I don't need a shop like this." Meg smiled.
"You might regret it." Burton smiled, and quickly left.
"Regret?" Meg raised his eyebrows. He turned around, and saw Raina looking at the property ownership certificate in her hand with a shocked expression.
"Boss, this is … this is a shop with an area of 3,000 square meters …" Raina looked up at Meg, and her voice was trembling.
