Chapter 35 Good people? Bad people?

"What conditions?" Xiaomouyi wiped the blood on her face and said. Wild Dog and Lu Wu were both very ruthless, but he didn't have any strength to fight back. Now his whole face was swollen, and he looked several times fatter than before.

"It's very simple. I will definitely not pay back these two hundred coins. Tell me a real number. If it's about the same, I can help him pay it back. Otherwise, you can find anyone who owes you!" Li Zhang said calmly. It's okay to pay back the money, but he will never be a sucker.

"This..." Xiao Wangzi also understood after hearing Li Zhang's words. In fact, those who lend money to usury often encounter things that the other party can't pay it even if they sell it out.

In this case, the people who lend money will take the initiative to reduce some debts to the people who owed money. This is not the kindness of the people who lend money, but the worry that they are too tight. If the other party can't think about it and commit suicide, then their money will not be taken back. After all, they lend money mainly to make money, not to force people to death. Moreover, if someone dies, they will also have to spend money to handle the government, and they are unwilling to do such a loss of money.

Of course, the above situation is not absolute. For example, in order to establish his authority, these usury people may deliberately force people to death, so that no one dares to rely on them to pay back the money in the future. In their eyes, a few lives are far from comparable to money.

"I know the rules of your industry. I will definitely pay you a lot of money, but the interest cannot be calculated based on yours, and I can't afford so much money at once. You also saw that I have not opened yet and I have paid all the money I made before, so I can only pay a portion of it every month." Li Zhang said again at this time, after being hard, he came back and was soft. He had already opened up his own conditions. Next, it depends on how the beard chose?

"I can't make the decision, so I have to go back and ask our boss!" Xiao Wangzi thought for a moment and said again. He was just a thug. He couldn't make the decision like this. And he also realized that if the reduction was too small, I'm afraid that the steady and indifferent boy in front of him would not pay back the money at all.

"Okay, go back and ask the person who can decide!" Li Zhang said without surprise when he heard this.

The bearded man looked at Lu Wu who was still clamoring behind him, and then looked at the thugs beside him who had just gotten up from the ground. Finally, he nodded helplessly. He had been asking for accounts for so many years, and he had always bullied others, but this was the first time he was bullied by others. But there was no way. The other party was a tough guy, and a real man was the one who could bend and stretch.

Thinking of the above, Xiaomouzi stood up and turned around and left. The thugs behind him hurriedly limped over, and they didn't even say anything harsh before leaving like in later TV dramas.

"Boy, are you really going to pay back the money for your father?" Xiaomoustache left, and the wild dog finally let go of Lu Wu. He strode to Li Zhang and asked.

"I have to pay back the money owed. I can't help but have such a father, but their interest rate is too high, so I will definitely not pay back that much!" Li Zhang said with a smile. Since he died once, Li Zhang also completely figured it out that money is something outside of his body, and living well is more important than anything else, not to mention that it is not difficult for him to make money in his current situation.

"You...ah~" Lu Wu couldn't help but sigh when he heard Li Zhang's words, and didn't know what to say?

"Uncle Wu, these people who run casinos must have a deep background. Today we beat their people, you are our backer. Will they use their background in the officialdom to retaliate against you?" Li Zhang said his worries at this time. In fact, he felt that Lu Wu was a little impulsive just now. It would be fine to hit the beard. If he really cut off his bearded arm, even if Lu Wu was a person in the yamen, he would probably be responsible.

"Hehe, don't worry about this. I know the person behind Kingsoft Casino. Even if I cut off the kid's hand today, he would not dare to say anything. Even if I killed that kid, he would come to the door to apologize in person!" Lu Wu said awesomely at this time, but Li Zhang felt that he was bragging. After all, there was no reason why the other party had to come to apologize?

"Uncle Wu, since you know this Kingsoft Casino so well, do you think the other party will give me a reduction in interest?" Of course, Li Zhang did not expose Lu Wu, but asked again.

When he heard Li Zhang ask this question, Lu Wu couldn't help but ponder for a moment, then he said, "The boss of Kingsoft Casino called Kingsoft. This man was originally a gangster leader. Later, he somehow got on with the person above, but he ended up making great achievements and opened a casino. Although it cannot be compared with the largest casino in Tokyo, it is also quite good. Speaking of Kingsoft, I think you should understand it."

"Oh? What's the special thing about this Jinshan?" Li Zhang also showed a curious expression when he heard Lu Wu's words, because he found that when Lu Wu mentioned Jinshan, a very strange expression appeared on his face.

Lu Wu did not immediately introduce Jinshan at this time, but hesitated for a moment before speaking: "If a person earns a lot of money but rarely spends it randomly, instead he uses the money to build bridges and pave roads and take care of the orphans and elderly people, do you think this person is a good person or a bad person?"

"Of course he is a good person, and he is a great charity!" Before Li Zhang could speak, Douzi, who had been eavesdropping, shouted first. He was an orphan. When he had no food to eat, what he most hoped was that a great charity would give him a porridge and rice.

"Hehe, but this great charity runs a casino. Not only do he tempt others to gamble, but he also lends usury. I don't know how many people were forced to sell their children and daughters, and even their families were destroyed. Do you think such a person is a good person?" Lu Wu said again at this time.

"This... where is such a person in this world?" Douzi couldn't help but show a confused expression when he heard Lu Wu's words. He was still unable to understand the complexity of human nature. In his opinion, good people are good people, bad people are bad people. How could someone be both good people and bad people at the same time?

After hearing Lu Wu's words, Li Zhang showed a thoughtful expression. After a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "What an interesting person. I really hope to see this Jinshan with my own eyes!"

"I hate this person very much because you have known him for a long time and will not be able to tell what good is and what evil is!" Lu Wu said with a disgusting expression at this time. He was jealous of evil and seemed to dislike this Jinshan very much.

Xiao Hu Zi and the others came to collect debts and did not interrupt Li Zhang and the others' plan to open the business. After seeing off Lu Wu, Li Zhang and Dou Zi and the others continued to prepare for the opening business. In the afternoon, two more guests came to visit, one was the cook cake Liu he knew when he was selling cook cakes on the dock before, and the other was the butcher Wang, who sold pork in Bianhe Town.

Li Zhang invited Cooking Liu, mainly to discuss cooperation. Because he moved his business to Kaifeng City, the business on the wharf could not be done, but the reputation of braised pork had already started on the wharf, and it was a pity to give up like this, so Li Zhang invited Cooking Liu and outsourced the business to him. He wholesale the braised pork to Cooking Liu at a lower price, and the other party was responsible for retailing on the wharf and earning the difference.

Cooking Biao Liu naturally wanted such a good thing. Although his Cooking Biao business was good, he had a small capital and low profits, so he could only make some hard-working money. Moreover, he had many children in his family, so he had long wanted to make more money and ask for directions. In addition, his eldest son was also an adult and could be responsible for the braised pork business.

After seeing Liu, the Butcher Wang also came. Li Zhang's braised meat business requires a lot of cuts such as water or pig heads and pig feet every day. In the past, this thing was the most difficult to sell and could only be processed at a cheap price. But now with Li Zhang, the Butcher Wang's business has also improved.

Originally, after Li Zhang rented a shop, he wanted to find a new source of goods in Kaifeng City. After all, there was a vegetable market not far from here. However, he later found that the prices in Kaifeng City were higher than those outside, resulting in an increase in costs. But Butcher Wang didn't want to lose his big customer, so he promised to deliver goods to him every day. Although he had to charge a certain freight, it was still more cost-effective than buying in the city. So after considering it, Li Zhang also agreed to Butcher Wang to supply goods to him for a long time.

The supply of goods has been available, and there has been a stable sales channel before it even opened, which made Li Zhang and the others feel confident. Even that night, Douzi and the others were so excited that they couldn't sleep. After all, they were about to open the next day. Whether they can gain a firm foothold in Kaifeng City depends on tomorrow's performance?

The next day, before dawn, Li Zhang and Douzi climbed up, and then the group of people had a clear division of labor. The ugly girl and the others cleaned the internal organs, and Li Zhang was responsible for the heat and added the braised meat. There is an advantage of braised meat, that is, the brine can be reused. Of course, some braised meat must be added every once in a while, but the cost is still greatly reduced. After all, those braised meat is not cheap.

When the braised pork was ready, the sky was already bright outside, and the strange fragrance of braised pork was spread out half the street. Many people who often walked on this street felt strange because it was the first time they smelled this fragrance. At this time, Li Zhang also used the same trick again. After opening the store, he asked Douzi and the others to carry the plates around and let the pedestrians on the street try it for free.

After renting the house, Li Zhang didn't have much money, so he didn't bother to hold the opening ceremony, but prepared more braised pork for you to try. After all, there are two most important things in the food business: one is the taste and the other is the reputation. Needless to say, the taste of braised pork is needed. If the reputation is established, more people must taste the taste of braised pork. At that time, they will naturally help themselves spread the reputation of braised pork.

Free food is indeed the most popular. Douzi and the others are calling it hard, which naturally attracted many people to try it. And soon some people thought it was good, so they came to the store to buy some braised meat and took it back. As time went by, more and more people tried it, and the business in the store became better and better. This made Li Zhang finally breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that the opening of today was very successful.
