Once the branch of this Brother Internet Cafe is opened, it will be equipped with at least hundreds of machines on two floors. If it can reach an average access rate of 12 hours a day, not to mention 24 hours a day, it will cost 1.5 per hour to become a member. Yuan, each machine can earn 18 yuan if it is open for 12 hours, and one hundred machines can earn 1,800 yuan. In other words, the most conservative estimate is that it can earn this much every day. This does not include revenue from beverages, food and non-member boarding.
1,800 a day, that’s 54,000 yuan a month, and 10%, that’s 5,400 yuan. In other words, at least this much money falls into Liu Wanchuan's hands every month. You know, Liu Wanchuan is still a high school student, and it's 2005! Money is valuable! The money I get in my hands in one month is as much as my parents’ combined income in two or three months!
This income is definitely not a small amount!
"No! Absolutely not!" Liu Wanchuan waved his hands hurriedly after a brief moment of confusion, "Brother Lin, the brothers have to get the same amount, and they can't do anything special. I'm still the same as Liangzi and the others, five percent is enough!"
Lorraine shook her head with a smile and patted Liu Wanchuan's shoulder gently: "Xiaochuan, don't refuse. To be honest, among the five brothers, you are the most mature and have the most worries. I will give it to you. Ten percent of dry shares, although material, is a recognition of your attitude towards doing things. The world is fair, you can get as much as you pay, and this ten percent of dry shares is yours You deserve it. Don’t worry, Liangzi and the others are convinced by you and won’t have any objections.”
"But..." Liu Wanchuan wanted to say something else.
"Stop it." Lorraine waved his hand and said seriously, "I will have many things to tell you in the future, and you will do more things than the four of them. If you don't accept it, I will It’s not easy to give you a task. You can’t ask me to come in person. After all, I’m going to Yanjing in half a year, and I’ll have to rely on you to control this place from now on.”
Liu Wanchuan said nothing more, opened his mouth, looked at Brother Lin's serious expression that did not allow for refutation, and finally swallowed the words. Lorraine has said all this, and if he refuses again, he is really ignorant.
"Don't worry, Brother Lin, I will do a good job." Liu Wanchuan said firmly.
Lorraine patted Liu Wanchuan on the shoulder again: "Just try to act cool and don't embarrass yourself."
"Yes!!" Liu Wanchuan nodded heavily.
Lorraine's family has the big mountain of Rock Group, which will one day become her personal assets, so she doesn't care about this small amount of money. He knows very well that in this era, talents are far more important than some trivial material income. When he decided to open Internet cafes and bars around the school, it was just to train the little brothers Liu Wanchuan. You may not be able to see it now, but in a few years, you will find that these investments are compared with the returns he will receive in the future. Nothing at all.
At noon, Lorraine treated Lan Lan to a meal and then left. He went to a bar in an alley alone, but found Liu Wanchuan again.
"Xiaochuan, weren't you at the new Internet cafe just now? Why are you here?" Lorraine walked into the bar and asked.
At this time, Liu Wanchuan was sitting at the bar, looking through some accounts. He raised his head and saw Lorraine walking towards him. He said with a smile: "I just had dinner. There is nothing wrong with the decoration of the Internet cafe, so I came here. Check it out." Last night’s business bill... By the way, Brother Lin, have you had lunch?”
"Have eaten." Lorraine nodded, stepped forward and flipped through Liu Wanchuan's accounts, and couldn't help but nod. No wonder many nouveau riche choose to open bars. It turns out that this is a hugely profitable industry. But... most people really don't have the ability to open a bar. After all, this is not a romantic bar with a petty bourgeois atmosphere. Most of the guests received here are social scoundrels, and their quality is generally low. If there is no one who can cover the venue, The backstage has only been open for a long time. If someone messes with someone and comes to destroy the store every three days, it will be closed down.
However, on the set, the relationship between Lorraine and the wolfdog is quite strong, so this biggest problem is not a problem at all. Among the guests who come here to have fun, who doesn’t know the reputation of Brother Wolfdog and Brother Xiaolin with Black Gloves on the set? In this society, no matter what age you are, as long as you are ruthless enough and have a deep enough background, you are the master!
Most of the people who are willing to tip here are young people who are willing to spend money, so their income is naturally high.
"Brother, opening a bar here... is all about making money." Liu Wanchuan couldn't help but sigh to Lorraine.
Lorraine smiled: "In our era, the entertainment and leisure industry is the most profitable, not just bars. In the future, when you see more, you will find more ways to do it. Now while you are in school, I will provide some services to your brothers. Pay more attention to these conditions, learn more, and think more about these conditions on weekdays. In fact, you and I are not worried. Jiadong is also quite savvy. What is worrying is Liangzi and the others. From now on, you Teach them more.”
"Well, don't worry, Brother Lin, I know."
After sitting in the bar for a while, Lorraine went home around two o'clock in the afternoon. She sat alone in the living room, crossing her legs, smoking a cigarette, and looking at the ceiling along the slowly rising white mist. Squinting slightly, looking thoughtful.
In this way, Lorraine sat quietly at home all afternoon without saying a word.
In the depth of winter, night came early. It was only five or six o'clock, and the sky was already completely dark. Lorraine looked at her watch and found that the time was just right, so she called Jiang Yan. Soon, there was news over there. A cheerful voice came: "Hey, you finally remembered to call me?"
Lorraine smiled: "Haha, Sister Yan, are you in a good mood? Have you apologized to your uncle and aunt?"
"Don't worry, I've apologized..." Jiang Yan chuckled, seemingly having a very pleasant communication with her parents, "My parents have promised not to 'force' me anymore, but what are you saying about giving me another two years?" Time, if you haven’t found a good boyfriend by the age of 26, arrange another blind date for me immediately, and then I won’t be able to help you.”
"Haha, what did you say?" Lorraine asked.
"Guess?" Jiang Yan, who has always been cold and charming, actually gave herself a hard time.
Lorraine paused and blurted out: "I don't guess."
"Tch, you're really boring." Jiang Yan sighed in disappointment, then changed her mind to the topic, "Tell me, how are you going to arrange it?"
Lorraine naturally knew that what Jiang Yan was talking about was about collecting evidence for a million-dollar crime, so he immediately said without talking about anything else: "You can just come to my house to find me, and I will tell you the specific plan. It's almost there." Time to go to Caesar’s Palace.”
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yan quickly put on the clothes that she felt were the most beautiful, briefly combed her hair, and was about to go out.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang saw Jiang Yan's hurried posture and asked in surprise: "Huh? Yanyan? It's time to have dinner soon. What are you going to do?"
Jiang Yan, who was about to open the door, paused, turned around and said with a smile: "Well... um... there are still some trivial cases in the bureau that I need to deal with, so I may have to come back later."
"Huh? Aren't you on vacation?"
Before her parents could finish speaking, Jiang Yan had already opened the door, and her tall figure quickly ran out.
"Eh? Hey... This kid left before he even finished speaking... Sigh, if Yanyan could devote half of her energy to this job to her relationship, she would probably have a family by now." Father Jiang was helpless. He shook his head and sighed.
Mother Jiang looked at her daughter's leaving back and recalled the undisguised smile on her face when she left. She pondered for a moment and then turned around with a smile and said to Father Jiang: "Old Jiang... thanks to you. After spending so many years in the officialdom, you don’t even have this bit of discernment?”
"What's wrong?" Father Jiang asked in surprise.
"How can my daughter look like she's rushing to work? She's clearly going on a date with someone!" Jiang's mother said with a smile.
"What?" A hint of joy suddenly appeared on Father Jiang's face, "Really? How did you tell?"
"Don't forget, I was young too, and I looked like this when I sneaked out from home to go on a date with you." Mother Jiang rolled her eyes at Father Jiang, looking a little nostalgic.
"Put it down, I haven't seen you smile so brightly in these years."
"That's because you are old. If you were still as handsome as you were when you were young, I would be able to smile from ear to ear every day. ... Look at you now, you have a wrinkled face, and the crow's feet at the corners of your eyes can be pinched if you smile. A mosquito.”
"You are such an old woman, but you have a great mouth. You look so young."
While the old couple were bickering, Jiang Yan downstairs had already intercepted a taxi and rushed in.
"Ma'am, where are you going?" the driver turned around and asked.
Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Go to Jingxiang Garden."
"okay!"
"Buzz!—" He stepped on the accelerator and the taxi sped away.
Soon, Jiang Yan arrived at the door of Lorraine's house, reached out and pressed the doorbell. After just two rings, the door was opened, and Lorraine's smiling face came into Jiang Yan's eyes.
"Sister Yan, it's cold outside, come in quickly."
"Um."
After entering the house, Jiang Yan unceremoniously took off her high-heeled leather boots and put on a pair of slippers. Her white down jacket was hung on the hanger. Her tall figure was covered by the close-fitting white jacket. The sweater and tight light blue jeans wrapped around the round and attractive S-shaped curve. She was as casual as at home. She walked to Lorraine quite naturally and sat down on the sofa with a pair of cool and charming eyes. She looked at Lorraine with her beautiful eyes: "Tell me, little genius, when are you going to take action and how do you plan to do it?"
Lorraine opened her mouth and went straight to the point: "It's very simple. First, we have to enter Caesars Palace as a couple, so that I can enter with just my VIP card. You need to register your ID card to apply for a VIP card. You are the Criminal Police Brigade As a serving police officer, your identity cannot be exposed, so you cannot apply for a VIP card. Is there any problem with this?"
Jiang Yan thought about it for a while, but she felt very calm. She nodded and said: "If there is any problem, there is no solution. I have a special status, so I will suffer the disadvantage of pretending to be a couple with you."
Lorraine looked serious and continued: "Then, we will enter the underground casino at Caesars Palace."
"Um."
"Then, we need to stay until about eight o'clock in the evening before leaving, because this is the time when Qian Wanwan starts working. The reason why we entered the casino earlier is to avoid being suspected. Do you understand this?"
"Um."
"Then, I'll take you to check out a room."
"Uh-huh??!!"
