Lao Xia, who was still a little sad at first, laughed loudly after hearing his son's words, and took the initiative to answer: "I have a deep memory. When I came home after a busy day at work, I was very tired, so I picked up the wine bottle, poured a glass, and sipped it.
After one sip, I felt that the taste of the wine today was not right. I took another sip and tasted the taste. This is not wine, it smells like urine. I will beat you up."
Xia Chen chuckled and said, "That's right, you spanked me until my butt was bruised. If my stepmother hadn't stopped me, you could have cut off the belt."
"That's also because you've gone out of your way."
"Oh, am I proud? I peed into your wine bottle, am I proud? I am helping you quit drinking for the sake of your health, right? I have a clear conscience."
Can we still say this?
Xia Mingyu picked up the chopsticks and knocked his son on the head, and laughed again.
Looking at his son's increasingly mature and handsome face, the father is both proud and proud.
You really follow me.
Lao Xia has always regarded himself as a handsome middle-aged guy.
At this time, Liang Yinghong came back, and her face was bright and sunny after she opened the door and came in.
"Oh, you're ready to drink it. Ergouzi, give me a cup too." She carried a black leather bag with the word "Shanghai" written on it in her hand, sat down and banged it on the coffee table, looking at this
, look at that, it means, ask, ask quickly.
Isn't everyone curious how much money you made tonight?
Xia Yang took a cup for his mother, filled it with wine, and sang a song with a playful smile: "My dear mother, I came home from get off work. It's been such a hard day's work. Mom, sit down quickly and give me ten dollars... …”
Snapped!
oops……
Ha ha ha ha……
In front of him was the crisp sound of Liang Yinghong's big slap on the back of Er Gouzi's head and the sound of the dog howling.
Later, Mr. Xia and his son were laughing like crazy.
Liang Yinghong also laughed out loud, rolled her eyes at Ergouzi, picked up the wine glass and took a deep sip. Then she couldn't hold it in anymore, and said with a wide smile: "Guess how much money I made tonight?"
He looked at her with a smile and saw that her breathing was quickened. Xia Chen also picked up the wine glass and turned to his father and said: "Lao Xia, don't put off that matter. Get it done tomorrow. Pay the money early."
Renovation and moving early.”
Xia Mingyu cooperated with his son's performance, so he nodded and said: "As long as your money is in place, I will pay the money and go through the formalities tomorrow morning."
The father and son clinked glasses and took a sip.
Liang Yinghong was furious. Is my mother so ignored in this family?
She slapped the table, stared and said loudly: "What do you mean? Now that this bitch has made a lot of money, you can't look down on me as a loser, right?"
I can't pretend anymore.
Xia Chen sighed and said, "I'm afraid you are too arrogant."
Lao Xia and Er Gouzi looked at each other happily.
Liang Yinghong snorted, rolled her eyes and said: "You are looking down on me too much. I think back then, I had eaten and met people. I really didn't take this small amount of money seriously. I just didn't think of opening a game."
The hall can only make so much money."
Xia Chenxin said, of course he can earn it.
Besides, the game arcade is not in its heyday yet. Just look at it in a few years, and the game industry will be prosperous.
Besides, with the population and size of the capital, in today's era of lack of entertainment, opening a game arcade is simply a huge profit industry.
What Xia Chen wants to do is to take advantage of the fact that the game arcade industry has not developed yet and occupy the highest position in one fell swoop. At the very least, he must become the leading game arcade king in Sijiu City.
"So how much money did you make today?" Ergouzi was the one who asked this question, and he couldn't hold back his curiosity.
Lao Liang took it in hand, broke off the chicken head and ate it, raised his eyebrows and said, "Guess."
Xia Yang was also thoughtful, knowing that his mother was very proud at the moment, so he let her play for a while, then cooperated: "Two hundred?"
"Guess again."
"three hundred?"
"Short-sighted!"
"Is there even more than five hundred?"
Liang Yinghong laughed and said: "Five hundred and forty-one dollars and eight cents."
Now even Lao Xia was shocked, "So many!"
This is just one night's income. If it were one day...
It's simply unimaginable.
However, Xia Chen knew that it was too easy to earn a courtyard house in a game arcade in a month.
Liang Yinghong opened the bag. Inside was money that she had sorted according to denominations. The largest denominations were two 50 denominations. The rest were all very scattered. 10 yuan was rare, but 5 yuan and 2 yuan were the most common.
There were a lot of cents, piles and piles, all tied with rubber bands.
"I counted it three times before I came here, and there was nothing wrong with it. You don't know it. Tonight, I sold more than 30 popsicles for only 20 cents each, which made Xiao Wang next door jealous.
Ah, I looked outside and looked in." Liang Yinghong's face lit up.
"Let her eyes go away, don't pay attention to her." Xia Chen said as he put a few peanuts into his mouth.
Liang Yinghong didn't dwell on this topic anymore, but instead talked about another thing, "Damn it, business in our store is so good, and there are so many people at night, so let the Wang family keep an eye on it in the store, won't there be any problems?"
Xia Chen understood what she meant. The stepmother was not worried about problems with people, but was worried about problems with money. To put it bluntly, she was afraid that the Wang brothers would put their hands on business funds.
Xia Chen smiled and said: "There is no need for you to worry. How many game coins are there? How many coins are sold and how much money is received? You can see the number at a glance in two clicks. Besides, the number of game coins is clear at a glance.
Isn’t the key in your hand? If you don’t open it, no one can take out the game coins from inside. This fundamentally eliminates the possibility of them reaching into the business funds.”
There is another thing that Xia Chen didn't say. Do you think I am unprepared? I have placed people around them.
Who?
Yang Liulang.
Liulang doesn't obey anyone now, but he obeys Xia Chen.
In his mind, Brother Chen is more awesome than Brother Hai. Brother Hai's strength lies in his ability to fight, and Brother Chen can really make money.
Lao Xia also said: "Don't be suspicious of people. Don't be suspicious of people. You, don't be suspicious."
Liang Yinghong rolled her eyelids and said, "I'm just saying this for the sake of our family. It's not easy to make money these days."
Isn’t it easy for you to earn more than 500 yuan in one night?
The father and son looked at each other and smiled and stopped talking.
Xia Chen took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Er Gouzi, "If you go to play tomorrow, you have to spend your own money to buy game coins. You are not allowed to invite your classmates. Do you understand?"
Xia Yang happily took it and said: "Our family is a business, not a charity, and I am not stupid. I still need your instructions."
Yeah, I understand.
Xia Chen was happy, "It's okay to treat your friends to a bottle of soda."
Xia Yang: "Bang!"
After eating and drinking, go back to the house and sleep.
The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.
Xia Chen didn't plan to hold any grand opening ceremony, so setting off two firecrackers was just fun.
Game arcades don’t need to do all those bells and whistles, this thing relies on word-of-mouth publicity.
But a few people still sent flower baskets.
The first is Sister Xiaoyu. She is here. She comes with elegant steps. She has a delicate face and a tall figure. She is wearing a pink one-step skirt and high heels. Her smile is as bright as a spring flower. Followed by
Two big men carrying flower baskets.
Hey, it actually rhymes.
The game hall was already overcrowded, and there was a group of people standing at the door, including Gao Yuan, Zhao Xuening and other key personnel of the company, as well as more than 20 gangsters who could tell at a glance that they were not good at anything. Everyone was waiting for the auspicious moment.
arrival.
Liang Yinghong was also in the crowd. When she saw Xiao Yu approaching, she hurriedly responded and said with a smile on her face: "Why did Section Chief Xiao come here in person?"
Xiao Yu took Liang Yinghong's hand, lowered her eyebrows like a young daughter-in-law who had just walked through the door, and said with a smile: "Aunt Liang, I've already told you that you can just call me Xiao Yu, but calling me Section Chief Xiao is too intrusive.
Already."
Looking at her, Liang Yinghong laughed loudly, feeling that the thief was showing off, and said: "Well... then I won't let you be polite, and I will call you Xiaoyu from now on."
"That's right. Don't treat me like an outsider." Xiao Yu said with a wink.
Liang Yinghong felt a little weird and thought to herself, if I don't treat you as an outsider, how can I treat you as my daughter-in-law?
Hey, why do you have such strange thoughts?
If you take one look at this dog, you can see that his mouth is grinning almost to the base of his ears.
Besides, you two have nothing to do with each other. Do you think I believe it or not?
Liang Yinghong had a headache. Xiao Yu was in good condition, but the age gap between them was too big.
No, I have to find time to have a good chat with the dog.
Xia Chen didn't know that his stepmother would have so many twists and turns in her head at this moment. He walked up to the two of them and said with a smile: "Sister, you are here."
Xiao Yu rolled his eyes at him and said: "Isn't this nonsense? After all, I am also a shareholder. How can I not come to such a big thing as opening a business?"
Xia Chen scratched his head, have you taken some gunpowder? Or has your aunt come to visit? This unknown anger caught me off guard.
"Who is that? Why don't you have any eyesight? Come here quickly and carry the flower basket over." In order to resolve the embarrassment, Xia Chen turned his head and shouted to the crowd.
Hearing Brother Chen's shout, everyone's eyes, which had been unable to move, immediately lit up, and with a cheer, they all ran towards this side.
Xia Chen sighed with emotion: "No one can resist the charm of beautiful women."
Xiao Yu chuckled, gave him a hammer and said, "It's all nonsense."
Liang Yinghong felt more and more that something was wrong. She was flirting openly in broad daylight. You two have had enough.
Another set of eyes was also watching Xiao Yu's actions.
Gao Yuan's heart was pounding and she bit her lips tightly, as if she felt a huge threat.
Xia Chen was embarrassed to see so many pairs of eyes looking at her. The key was that the car couldn't be driven. He said to his stepmother, "Lao Liang, why don't you take Sister Xiaoyu to the house to have a rest."
Seeing her son's look for help, Liang Yinghong gave him a hard look, took Xiao Yu's arm and smiled affectionately: "It's too hot, come on, Xiao Yu, come into the house with aunt, and aunt will get you a soda."
Xiao Yu also felt that it was awkward to stand outside. The eyes of those stinky men were all focused on her. The penetrating power was quite strong and she wanted to get into her clothes. She nodded and said: "Okay, we two.
Let’s go inside and chat.”
The two of them walked inside.
Xia Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Sister Xiaoyu is really a charming little fairy!
Liu Jianjun sent someone to deliver a pair of flower baskets, and Officer Zhang told Xia Chen that Team Liu was on official business and could not come in person. He hoped that Boss Xia would forgive him.
Xia Chen knew that there was no tolerance for him, he was deliberately avoiding suspicion.
Without any hesitation, he invited Officer Zhang to visit the house and then sent him away. He asked him to give Captain Liu a message and invite Captain Liu to have an opening drink when he had time.
Tang San Baldy actually sent Qing Qi to deliver a pair of flower baskets, which made Xia Chen dumbfounded. However, since people showed goodwill, Xia Chen had to follow up. He arranged for two brothers to pick up the flower baskets and place them in front of the door.
At this time, Yang Liulang came over to remind Xia Chen that the auspicious time had arrived.
Xia Chen waved his hand and said: "Set off firecrackers, it's officially opened!"
The younger brother was already ready and lit the fuse with cigarettes, and the crackling sound of firecrackers filled the sky.
