"Yes, Mr. Zhou, ever since I opened this store, I have never had any conflicts with anyone."
"If someone really comes to cause trouble on purpose, it may be arranged by Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Ren seemed to have thought of something and quickly added.
"Mr. Zhou, what is this for?"
6 Tianlong asked with great interest.
"That's it..."
Zhou Ren was silent for a moment, and then began to talk about the grievances between him and the so-called Mr. Zhou.
It turned out that when Zhou Ren, a Chinese restaurant, opened, someone sent him two flower baskets to celebrate the opening of his restaurant.
The signature is Mr. Zhou.
Zhou Ren didn't know Mr. Zhou at all, let alone why Mr. Zhou would send him a flower basket.
However, Zhou Ren didn't think much about it at the time. His surname was Zhou, and Mr. Zhou was also surnamed Zhou. He just thought that the other party came to congratulate him for the sake of his surname.
Later, after inquiring, I found out that Mr. Zhou had just come to Haiyang from other places.
It is said that large investments have been made in Haiyang, such as investing in a seven-star hotel that is said to be the first in Haiyang City.
Zhou Ren thought that he could not reach such a high level for such a person, so he was really grateful to Mr. Zhou for taking the initiative to send a flower basket.
But just a few days ago, Mr. Zhou sent someone to Zhou Ren's restaurant again.
This time, Zhou Ren made a request that was somewhat unexpected.
He just wanted Zhou Ren to close the Chinese restaurant and work in his hotel, responsible for the operation of the restaurant in the hotel.
Originally this was a good thing.
But Mr. Zhou also made a request that the Chinese restaurant in the hotel could be run by Zhou Ren, but all profits must be shared equally.
Zhou Ren couldn't accept it this time.
If you go to a seven-star hotel, you not only have to bear the extra expensive venue rental fee, but you also have to share the profits, which is not cost-effective.
I have just finished renovating here, the cost is not particularly high, business is quite booming, there is no need to go through this again.
So he politely declined.
I didn't think it was a big deal at first.
Unexpectedly, from then on, Mr. Zhou’s people came here to see him every two days, discussing with him that he should be in charge of the Chinese restaurant in the seven-star hotel.
Although we came to negotiate many times, the other party's attitude was tough and the loan would not be released under all conditions and must be implemented in accordance with their requirements.
After doing this, Zhou Ren became a little reluctant.
After being bullied abroad for so many years, it’s so easy to come back to China to start a business, and still have to be bullied?
He told the other party straightforwardly that he was doing very well here. Not to mention the other party's harsh conditions, he would not go even if the conditions were relaxed.
Love so and so.
At this moment, the people sent by Mr. Zhou were offended.
The other party put down the words very fiercely, saying that Zhou Ren would be punished with a toast instead of eating, and told him to wait and see, sooner or later his Chinese restaurant would be closed, and then he would cry and beg Mr. Zhou.
Several days have passed since the incident, and Zhou Ren was frightened at first.
Although he was motivated for a while, with his current ability, he definitely couldn't compete with the owner of a seven-star hotel.
So at that time, he thought of many ways to retaliate against the other party, and also found many countermeasures on the Internet.
It was uneventful for several days, and he felt that the other party might have let him go.
But I didn't expect that something like this would happen again.
"So that's it. I know that someone rented a building in the city and said they were going to open a seven-star hotel. It's still in the renovation stage."
"It may not take many days to open."
After listening to Zhou Ren's story, Lu Tianlong quickly recalled it and nodded.
Just a while ago, a commercial building opened by Su Group was completed. It is in a very good location and is located in the center of the city.
Before it even started to be sold, it was contracted to open a seven-star hotel.
And soon signed a fifty-year contract agreement with the Su Group.
At that time, this incident caused quite a stir within the Su Group.
You must know that the annual rent for this nearly fifty-story building is an astronomical figure, and it also has to build a seven-star hotel. It is absolutely wealthy.
However, Lu Tianlong was in the United States at that time, so he only heard people talking about this matter and didn't pay much attention to it.
Thinking about it now, the guy who contracted this building at that time should be the Mr. Zhou mentioned in Zhou Ren's words.
"You mean, Mr. Zhou still has business dealings with your Su Group? The building where they opened the seven-star hotel is owned by the Su Group?"
Zhou Ren's face was as dusty as dust.
Originally, Lu Tianlong had just helped him expose the other party's scam, and he was quite grateful.
There was still a fantasy in his mind just now, thinking that Lu Tianlong might also help him settle the conflict with Mr. Zhou.
But now...
My heart was completely numb.
Mr. Zhou has business dealings with the Su Group, and it is a big deal.
6 The relationship between Tianlong and the Su Group is known to everyone in Haiyang. Needless to say.
In this way, Lu Tianlong would definitely not want to offend Mr. Zhou.
"Yes, as far as the current relationship is concerned, Mr. Zhou is our client."
6 Tianlong nodded. The entire property market is not very prosperous now. He had made estimates at the beginning. This project was mainly to build an architectural landmark for Haiyang City. He never thought about making money.
But being contracted by Mr. Zhou for fifty years at once was equivalent to making an extra fortune, but it was really not a small amount.
"The customer is God, I understand."
Seeing Lu Tianlong admit it, Zhou Ren's face turned even darker.
"Okay, Mr. 6, I won't embarrass you with this matter. Thank you very much for helping me out this time, otherwise I would definitely be in big trouble."
"I'm going to pack my things and close my shop in a few days. If you can't afford to offend me, why can't you hide away? At worst, I'll go to another city."
Zhou Ren lowered his head and gritted his teeth, speaking sentence by sentence.
Of course there is an element of anger in it.
This restaurant has just been renovated and opened, and almost a huge amount of money has been spent. How can it be so easy to change the place and start over?
6 Tianlong's mouth raised a smile.
Despite the fact that this little fat guy Zhou Ren looks quite amiable, he is actually quite stubborn.
It's kind of interesting to rather go bankrupt than give in.
"Customers are God, but... God cannot bully people casually!"
6 Tianlong joked.
"Ah? Mr. 6, what do you mean..."
Zhou Ren was stunned for a moment and didn't react.
"It's not good. It's not good."
At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open, and a waiter who had just left ran in quickly, with a trace of panic on his face.
"What happened?" Zhou Ren quickly turned around and asked without waiting for Lu Tianlong's answer.
"The three men and one woman who left just now are back, and with them are the two men sent by Mr. Zhou a while ago."
"They want to talk to you by name!"
The waiter quickly explained the following situation.
Even he failed to give birth, and the other party obviously came with bad intentions this time.
"Ah? Then..."
Zhou Ren glanced at Lu Tianlong next to him and saw him nodding slightly, feeling somewhat confident.
"Let them come up, I will wait for them in this box."
"good!"
The waiter hesitated for a moment, then ran off again.
"Mr. 6, look..."
Zhou Ren turned his head in embarrassment, his eyes a little complicated. He wanted Lu Tianlong to help, but he was also worried that Lu Tianlong would take their side.
"Haha, I broke that guy's leg just now. Maybe they came to find me. Let them come up first and then talk about it."
6 Tianlong smiled, glanced around the room, and walked to the table to sit down.
"Boss Zhou, I didn't even eat enough in my room just now, and I'm still a little hungry. Can you serve me a few more of your restaurant's signature dishes to satisfy me?"
He smiled and said.
"Ah? Okay!"
Zhou Ren and some other monks were confused, when would they still be in the mood to eat?
I thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it with my mouth. I quickly found someone to clear the table in front of me, and also mentioned the names of a few dishes.
The table had just been cleared and the box door was pushed open.
A middle-aged man in a suit entered the room. Behind him, there was a man who looked like a bodyguard, as well as the three men and one woman just now.
The guy's leg was still broken, but it was fixed with a plaster, and he was carried into the box by two accomplices.
"Haha, Boss Zhou, we meet again!"
Because the middle-aged man in a suit had a kind smile on his face, he greeted Zhou Ren after entering the door.
Then his eyes fell on Lu Tianlong, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Ha, Mr. 6 is here too? I didn't even believe what they said just now!"
"The last time we contracted the contract for the Su Group's building, I signed it on behalf of Mr. Zhou. Unfortunately, Mr. Liu was not there at the time and did not see it."
"To use your fan's words, I finally saw Liu Tianlong alive today, haha."
"By the way, our Mr. Zhou often mentions you and says that he will definitely visit you if he has the opportunity. After all, we are now a cooperative partnership. In the future..."
This guy looked at Lu Tianlong, not to mention very enthusiastic. He opened his mouth like Mr. Lu and shut up like Mr. Zhou.
It sounds like the two of them have a good relationship.
"Haha, you're welcome. You are our customers and our God. I should pay you a visit."
6 Tianlong also said with a smile.
"Where, by the way, I heard that there was a misunderstanding between my friends and Boss Zhou. I got the news and rushed over just to resolve the matter."
When this guy saw what Lu Tianlong said, the smile on his face became a little brighter again, and he said with a smile.
"Oh, is there a misunderstanding between you and Boss Zhou? Then you can talk and I won't affect you here, right?"
6 Tianlong asked seriously.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I just want to chat with Boss Zhou for a few words. You can just sit here."
This guy quickly waved his hand.
6 Tianlong stopped paying attention to them. Just as the waiter brought a plate of food, he began to eat by himself very rudely.
However, a question suddenly came to mind.
That Mr. Zhou obviously has a background, and he must be pretty good.
This Zhou Ren is just the owner of a small restaurant.
Why did Mr. Zhou insist on having trouble with him?
