202: Chapter 198 Uncle Ban 202: Chapter 198 Uncle Ban In recent years, the entertainnt industry in Capital City had developed quite well.
Nightclubs, which had been introduced to this area just a year or two ago, were not called nightclubs here but so sort of entertainnt center.
In Yan Jing’s private office on the second floor of the Daduhui Entertainnt Center,
“What’s been going on these past few days?
How can my huge venue only make just over ten thousand in a day?”
“Other venues are flourishing, while my place is doing worse.”
“You few, do you even know how to manage a venue?
Anyone who feels incapable can leave now, and I’ll replace you imdiately…”
Wearing a thick gold chain around his neck and exuding the aura of a nouveau riche, Yan Jing stood with his hands on his hips, scolding the suited entertainnt center managers in front of him like they were nothing.
“Boss, just on our street, a few hundred ters away from our Daduhui, a new entertainnt center has opened.”
“That place has taken a lot of our custors, and several of our top hostesses have moved there.”
“Ever since that entertainnt center opened, our business has naturally been much quieter…”
One of the managers, Little Four Eyes, tried to explain to Yan Jing.
“I don’t want to hear these excuses, I’ve already visited that entertainnt center when it opened.”
“In terms of facilities, they aren’t much better than our Daduhui.”
“On the sa street, under fair competition, if you can’t beat them in business, it’s your negligence as managers.”
“I’m asking you, do you have the capability to bring our business back up…”
While speaking, Yan Jing had a cigar in his mouth, exuding a definitive boss-like deanor.
The managers, scolded by him, were ashad and kept their heads down, speechless.
It’s difficult to boost business in an entertainnt center and very easy to see it decline.
In front of Yan Jing, no one dared to make bold claims without certainty.
After all, having worked under Yan Jing for so long, they were well aware of their boss’s temperant!
If they made a bold promise and then failed to deliver, Yan Jing would take their oaths seriously and hold them to it.
With a grim expression, Yan Jing scolded his subordinates for nearly an hour.
“Bang bang bang…” Just after he had dismissed the managers, there was a knock at the door, and a young man in black entered.
“Brother Jing, I’ve thoroughly investigated that man surnad Chen that you asked about.
Here are so docunts related to him!”
The man in black, nad Xiang Dong, spoke while placing the docunts he had on the table in front of Yan Jing.
“Okay, I know.
Dong, sit on the sofa for a bit, I’ll review these docunts first!”
Yan Jing nodded and instructed Xiang Dong.
He was ruthless when scolding the entertainnt center managers.
However, when dealing with trusted thugs like Xiang Dong, he was undoubtedly much more polite.
After all, ordinary managers were just earning a salary working for him, but his trusted thugs were literally risking their lives for him.
“This Chen…
just a freshman at Capital Political and Legal University from a rural area in an eighteenth-tier small county in Xiangnan Province?”
“Only been in Capital City for just over a month, this person has no connections or powerful backers.”
“Who gave him the courage to openly disrespect , Yan Jing?”
Having glanced at only the first two pages of the new docunts, Yan Jing’s face was grim as he began to sneer.
A pri minister’s belly may hide a boat, but Yan Jing was at most a nouveau riche.
That’s as far as his tolerance went.
At the Boyue Convention and Exhibition Center, inside the auction venue, he had been publicly humiliated.
Chen Hai might not have taken it to heart, but Yan Jing had always rembered it.
Considering the reputation of the initiators, he did not react impulsively at the venue.
But after leaving the Boyue Convention and Exhibition Center, he imdiately had his n investigate Chen Hai’s background.
If Chen Hai had any significant backing or influence, Yan Jing would have let it go!
After all, being a local heavy-weight, he clearly understood that Capital City was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
There were too many people Yan Jing couldn’t afford to offend.
But now, having seen the information in his hands, he had completely shed his reservations!
“Using so inherited items, he made over a million at the exchange eting…
Mr.
Chen is quite lucky!”
“Too bad he lacks awareness, even daring to provoke , Yan Jing.”
“From the mont he embarrassed , his good luck was dood to be nothing but a fleeting joy!”
Yan Jing closed the docunt in his hands and pulled out a cigarette to light up.
“Dong, where’s Xiaohang?” His smile was a bit grim as he turned to Xiang Dong, who was waiting quietly by his side, and asked.
As his top thug, whenever there was sothing to be done, Yan Jing would certainly think of Bai Xiaohang first.
“Brother Xiaohang had so business this morning and went out; he hasn’t co back yet!” Shrugging his shoulders, Xiang Dong responded.
“Call him back imdiately, then you two co with to Chen Hai’s place to give him a heads-up!”
With a few eerie laughs, Yan Jing took out the Jeep Cherokee key he had bought not long ago and smacked it down on the office desk before him.
If he really needed to call for help, with Yan Jing’s influence, he couldn’t say much for more, but summoning thirty or fifty people was definitely a trifle.
However, in his eyes, that Chen Hai was rely a clueless young man.
Dealing with such a young man to discuss life and ideals, bringing too many people would be completely unnecessary; it would be a waste with no aning at all.
Just he himself, along with Xiang Dong and Bai Xiaohang, driving in one car was enough to completely overwhelm that young Chen Hai.
“Alright, I’ll go find Brother Xiaohang right away!” Nodding, Xiang Dong took the car keys passed by Yan Jing and headed straight out.
…
West Mountain Villa, it was just about half-past four, and Ye Qingqing and Chen Hai had already returned here.
“Qingqing, it’s almost dinner ti.
When will your elder arrive?
Do we need to prepare dinner?”
At the gate of the courtyard, Chen Hai looked forward in anticipation and then turned to ask Ye Qingqing.
“My cooking is all disaster dishes; even if I really prepared dinner, they probably wouldn’t dare to touch it!” Chuckling secretly for a few monts, Ye Qingqing replied.
As for Chen Hai, although cooking a al wasn’t a problem for him, the food he cooked was bound to be oily, salty, and spicy!
Such food was fine for him to eat alone, but it seed sowhat inappropriate to serve to a guest.
Since Ye Qingqing ntioned that her elder, who was just coming to visit and chat casually, didn’t need anything prepared.
Well, Chen Hai could only accept her suggestion!
Sitting in the small pavilion in the courtyard, the two brewed a pot of hot tea and waited for over half an hour.
Amidst the roaring of the engine, a vehicle bearing the Toyota emblem, sowhat resembling a van, stopped outside Chen Hai’s villa.
The car door opened, and a middle-aged man with a square face and probably in his forties, with the aid of two n in black suits, carefully descended from the car using a cane.
Following that, one of the n in black fetched a wheelchair from the car and helped the middle-aged man sit on it.
“Uncle Ban, I thought you were joking with !
I didn’t expect you to really co!”
Hearing the noise outside, Chen Hai and Ye Qingqing hurried out imdiately.
With a beaming smile, Ye Qingqing greeted the middle-aged man and, familiar with the routine, moved behind the wheelchair to slowly push the middle-aged man into the villa.
The two n in the black suits, bulging around the waist, were undoubtedly carrying weapons—even without using the Divine Soul Eye, Chen Hai could tell.
For anyone else daring to approach the middle-aged man carelessly, these two might have already drawn their guns and aid at soone’s head.
However, for Ye Qingqing, they seed to be very familiar and allowed her to push the middle-aged man into the villa, simply standing guard nearby without any other action.
“Uncle Ban, this is my boyfriend, Chen Hai!”
“Chen Hai, co, let introduce you.
This is my dad’s good friend; you can also call him Uncle Ban!”
Ye Qingqing introduced them to each other with a smile on her face.
She was clearly very happy about Uncle Ban’s visit.
“You little girl, when I first saw you, you had just learned to walk and always liked to cry!”
“In the blink of an eye, you’ve grown so much, even having a boyfriend!”
“Ti waits for no one.
Before you know it, your dad and I have aged as well!” Uncle Ban looked back at Ye Qingqing with a chuckle and sighed.
“Uncle Ban, your leg…” Chen Hai quickly greeted him.
Although Ye Qingqing had ntioned that Uncle Ban had so issues with his legs, Chen Hai hadn’t expected Uncle Ban’s condition to be so severe that he needed to sit in a wheelchair.
“During the turmoil, because of a family issue, I jumped from the fourth floor.
My legs were injured and didn’t receive treatnt and were kept in a damp, cold place, with severe attacks of cold and dampness.
These legs are completely ruined!”
“After a decade or two, I’ve gotten used to the issue with my legs,” Uncle Ban said with a wry smile and a long sigh.
Though his words sounded casual, his eyes revealed so unwillingness regarding his crippled legs.
“Chen Hai, Uncle Ban is a good person; he works at the Disability Federation and has spent his life advocating for the welfare of people with disabilities!”
“You seem to know a lot about strange things.
I’m wondering if you have any solutions for Uncle Ban’s condition?”
Glancing at her boyfriend, Ye Qingqing tentatively spoke, inquiring.
As Uncle Ban, seated in his wheelchair, heard Ye Qingqing’s words, his gaze, filled with skepticism and a bit of hope, also fell on Chen Hai.
