Chapter 24 Qingzi, if you want to understand, come find me on the other side

In the office on the second floor, I poured a glass of milk from the refrigerator.

Chen Changqing doesn't have many hobbies. Not counting the morning jogging he has become obsessed with recently, milk and red pagoda are his favorites.

Putting the milk on the table next to him, Chen Changqing took out half a box of red pagodas from the drawer. On a prominent position next to the milk was a stack of banknotes, criss-crossed with white paper strips, with a line of beautiful font written on it -

Zhang Li, sealed at 8:16 am on February 16, 1994, with a total amount of 5,000 yuan.

Zhang Li is the front desk girl, and Chen Changqing set the rules on the first day of opening.

Money can be deposited at the front desk, but the amount cannot exceed 5,000. When the amount exceeds 5,000, the front desk will count it, seal it with a white note, and sign your name on it.

Each stack is worth five thousand, and is counted and settled in the morning and evening.

Chen Changqing did not doubt the character of the people in the store, but people's hearts were divided between their stomachs, and money moved people's hearts. Even if Chen Changqing installed surveillance cameras at the front desk, no one knew what would happen, so he explained the rules in the beginning.

Facts have proved that Chen Changqing's idea is very wise.

The game city’s revenue is the same as Chen Changqing initially estimated.

When we opened on the first day of the Lunar New Year, our sales that day were only RMB 3,700.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the daily turnover exceeded 5,400.

Yesterday was the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Ali sent four wads of banknotes to the second floor in one day, which means that the turnover of Baile Game City on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year was extremely terrifying, reaching 20,000!

What does 20,000 yuan mean?

As a lawyer, May had to go without eating or drinking for four months to earn so much money, while Chen Changqing earned it in one day.

Faced with the turnover of 20,000 yuan a day, and most of them are ten-dollar bills, it is inevitable that mistakes will occur during the counting of banknotes.

As for the pile of five thousand banknotes, the cross seal and the recorded name, combined with the surveillance installed in the game city, even if you have an idea in your heart, when counting, you have to think about whether you will be discovered if you do so.

Of course, Chen Changqing also knew that yesterday's income was just an accident.

After all, there are seven days off during the Chinese New Year, and everyone has spare money. In addition, yesterday is the last day of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Those who have to go to work tomorrow and those who have to go to school will naturally come to the game city to spend a lot of money.

After the seven-day New Year holiday, the number of people coming to the game city to spend money will definitely decrease.

But in the era of lack of entertainment in 1994, no matter how bad the game city's business was, a daily turnover of 10,000 yuan was still completely fine, excluding other expenses, such as taxes, employee labor fees, etc.

Chen Changqing’s net income is at least two million a year!

After all, if you look at the whole of Hong Kong, you will never find a bigger and more comprehensive game city than Baile.

He opened the half-height safe next to him and put the pile of banknotes on the table inside. Although there was only one layer underneath, Chen Changqing believed that it wouldn't take long before he could fill the safe.

Just like that, time passed by in a hurry.

Because May was not at home, Chen Changqing was too lazy to go home for dinner, so he called and ordered a roast goose.

After lunch with the employees, Chen Changqing spent half an hour on the phone with May, and then took a nap on the boss's chair in the office for half an hour. When he woke up, he picked up an introduction to Siamese from the bookshelf next to him.

course.

Chen Changqing has good language talent. Before he became a violator, he was a northerner. Chen Yongren, who was parasitically devoured by him, is proficient in Cantonese and English, which means that he is proficient in two languages ​​​​and a dialect.

Chen Changqing has been studying and enriching himself recently.

First came Siam, then Neon.

If there are no big surprises, Neon will release the classic game King of Fighters 94, which shocked the world in 1994. It shocked the market as soon as it was released, and in 1997, King of Fighters 97 made thousands of people crazy.

Chen Changqing is planning to go to Neon this year. It is best to get the exclusive distribution license of Xiangjiang. If not, he will seize the market first.

Therefore, it is very important to learn neon language. As for what language to learn later, it depends on the situation.

It was around two o'clock in the afternoon. Chen Changqing had just finished reading the second section of How to Communicate Friendly with Siamese, but he had not yet opened the third section of the book.

"Bang!"

There was no knock on the door, and the office door was violently pushed open. Wearing a set of colorful beach shorts, regardless of what Chen Changqing was doing inside, Pineapple Boy, smelling of alcohol, sat down opposite Chen Changqing:

"Qingzi's business is good."

Frowning slightly, Chen Changqing's eyes flashed with displeasure:

"It's okay. I wonder what Brother Pineapple wants from me?"

Pineapple Boy ignored Chen Changqing's expression, or he didn't care what Chen Changqing thought: "It's nothing. I have a good business recently. I think you are also my brother, so I am going to make money with you."

Chen Changqing glanced at Pineapple Boy, but he did not refuse immediately:

"what business?"

Faced with Chen Changqing’s inquiry?

Although there was a bit of drunkenness on his face, Pineapple Boy's eyes were shining with excitement, and he rubbed his fingers:

"I have a batch of goods in hand, and I'm going to buy them for you at a low price."

Although the game city in the 1990s was not as filthy as the disco, the nature of the two sides was actually similar. There were people from all walks of life, and the game city could barely be regarded as a mixed bag of dragons and snakes.

In addition, Chen Changqing had also been in a triad before, so in the opinion of Pineapple Boy, Chen Changqing would not reject him. After all, no one can live with money, and besides, Pineapple Boy has the final say in this street!

Unless Chen Changqing doesn't want to mess around anymore, he will definitely agree to it.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Changqing shook his head in the face of his "good intentions":

"I think it's better to forget it. I earn a lot now."

Frowning his brows, Pineapple Boy's eyes were a little more displeased.

However, he did not get angry, but "well-meaning" advised: "You must have the motivation to fight when you are young. You are still young now and don't understand how hard it is to make money. Listen to Brother Pineapple's advice and make money while you are still much younger."

Make some money."

But Chen Changqing ignored it. He closed the book in his hand, his deep eyes flashing seriously:

"Brother Pineapple, I think you may not quite understand what I mean. This is a serious business!"

Serious business?

How many of those who opened game malls in Hong Kong in the 1990s were serious businesses?

The machines on display are obviously arcade machines, but who knows how many of these machines are Tiger machines?

The game city is slightly better than the disco, but not much better. Pineapple Boy didn't believe the nonsense Chen Changqing said, but the other party refused directly without even asking the price. This made Pineapple Boy frown involuntarily, and the wine on his body

A lot of anger has dissipated:

"Qingzi, I remember that you also paid homage to Second Master Guan. Although you are not so particular about it now, who knows when one day Second Master Guan will open his eyes?"

Chen Changqing raised his eyebrows. The Guan Erye mentioned by Pineapple Boy refers to the Martial Saint Guan Yu. Guan Gong usually has his eyes half-opened, because Guan Gong with his eyes open wants to kill people. Combined with the last sentence of Guan Erye opened by Pineapple Boy,

What he wanted to express was obvious.

So the next moment, Chen Changqing's expression couldn't help but become gloomy.

His eyes are sharp, and the fierceness in his eyes makes people feel like a man-eating beast:

"Brother Pineapple, are you threatening me?"

Under the stimulation of alcohol, Pineapple Boy was not afraid. Instead, he sneered at Chen Changqing:

"No, I'm just telling you from experience."

Who is Pineapple Boy?

He was the big boy who followed Gandhi.

The owner of the previous shoe store was afraid of being retaliated by Pineapple Boy, so he gritted his teeth and held on.

In the eyes of Pineapple Boy, Chen Changqing is just a little brat. He was obedient after a little scare. The so-called serious business is nothing to him. The previous shoe store owner was not prepared to rent a store, but in the end

Aren't you paying the rent honestly?

What? Are you saying this is extortion?

Stop making trouble, I, Pineapple Boy, am doing serious business!

But what he didn't expect was that in the face of his own threat, this tough guy named Chen Changqing was not afraid. Instead, he said coldly: "Sorry, Xiangjiang is under the control of ghosts now. They don't worship the second master.

Even if we return in the future, it will be a society ruled by law, and the second master will not be able to control it."

With a gloomy look on his face, Pineapple Boy had a sinister sneer on his face:

"Then there's nothing to talk about?"

Chen Changqing shook his head, looked at Pineapple Boy coldly, and said in an unusually firm tone:

"As I said before, this is serious business."

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere at the scene became solemn.

His eyes were bloodshot, and under the stimulation of alcohol, Pineapple Boy's expression became more ferocious, giving the impression that he was like a mad dog about to pounce and bite.

Chen Changqing stared at the opponent without showing any weakness, his eyes were firm, and he looked uncompromising.

But Pineapple Boy is not a mad dog after all, and he did not pounce on him. As the two sides looked at each other for a moment, Pineapple Boy finally took a deep look at Chen Changqing and said a harsh word: "Qingzi, don't speak so harshly, wait."

When you figure it out, you can go find me on the other side."
