Return to the 80s, from touching loaches to becoming the world's richest man

The hot pot restaurant's business today is much better than yesterday.

When Lu Hai settled his accounts at night, he found that his profit for today alone totaled about 1,200 yuan.

It's enough to imagine how popular the business is in this store.

Basically, at this time in the evening, the restaurant is always full.

Those who come later have to wait in line.

This is because after trying it, everyone felt that Lu Hai's hotpot restaurant tasted good, was affordable and also gave away a free portion of meat.

Word of mouth spreads from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and gradually your fame spreads.

So doing business these days basically means picking up money from the ground with a basket.

As long as your stuff is decent, you can basically make money.

Moreover, as people's living standards continue to improve, their demands for these materials are also increasing.

So, these days, as long as you seize the opportunity, you can basically make a fortune.

Especially from the 80s to the late 90s, this market was basically an era of wild growth. As long as you had the courage, it was easy to make a fortune.

The two consecutive days of good start have boosted the confidence of the young men. For them, becoming a millionaire, which seemed out of reach before, now seems to be just around the corner.

After cleaning up everything in the store, Lu Hai asked everyone to go back and rest.

After all, I have to get up early every day to buy ingredients, and I can’t do it without a good rest.

Because Luo Yongfeng and Lai Anbang stayed to look after the store tonight, they simply put a few chairs together in the store and went to sleep.

Originally, Lu Hai was also thinking about whether he should set up a small separate room so that it would be more convenient for those who stayed behind to sleep.

However, on second thought, if someone sneaked in and I was sleeping in the room, I might not know about it.

Moreover, there are a lot of alcoholic beverages in this store, and the stoves and other things are all made of iron. It would be bad if they were stolen.

So it was not separated during the renovation.

Fortunately, none of them are spoiled, so they have no complaints.

After all, you don’t sleep like this every day.

Seeing that there was nothing to worry about, Lu Hai took the remaining few people and rushed towards the rental house.

After returning to the rental house and washing up, they went straight to bed.

However, at around 2 or 3 in the morning, Lu Hai was awakened from his deep sleep...

Lu Hai lit the oil lamp beside him, and through sleepy eyes he saw Lai Anbang sweating profusely.

Seeing this scene, the sleepiness that was still a little bit gone instantly. He thought to himself that something was wrong and quickly asked Lai Anbang, "Is there something wrong in the store?"

When Lai Anbang heard this, he said breathlessly, "Yes, Brother Lu, a group of people just came and smashed our glass while Brother Luo and I were sleeping."

"Are you all okay?" Lu Hai asked directly.

Lai Anbang shook his head when he heard this. "Brother Luo and I are fine, but that group of people came with a threatening attitude, holding sticks in their hands, and said that we had to pay protection money, otherwise they would not let us open the store."

"Luckily, we don't usually keep money in the store, so the gang just smashed some things and left when they saw there was no money. I wanted to rush over, but Brother Luo stopped me."

"It's a good thing Yongfeng stopped you, otherwise how would I explain to your family if anything happened to you? Don't be so impulsive next time." Lu Hai was relieved when he heard that the two men didn't rush up to fight stupidly.

He was really afraid that the two of them would rush up and fight with a group of people. What would he do if something happened then?

After all, this little gangster is very ruthless when he hits people. Once he gets angry, with so many people around, he can beat them with a stick each. Having to lie in bed for ten days or half a month is considered the lightest punishment.

When Lai Anbang heard that Lu Hai didn't care about the losses in the store at first, but was worried about the two of them, he felt inexplicably touched.

However, he soon remembered the loss of the store and said hurriedly,

"Brother Lu, now is not the time to talk about this. Our store was smashed, the glass and everything was broken, and those bottles of Moutai were also taken away by them."

"Moreover, they also said that if we didn't pay the protection fee, they would smash us every time we opened the business."

Lu Hai also frowned when he heard this.

Since everyone is fine, now we should focus on the things in this store.

Now that all the glass and other things have been smashed, I guess we won’t be able to open tomorrow.

Moreover, the meaning of the other party's words is very clear, spending money to avoid disaster.

But is Lu Hai the kind of person who would suffer losses?

If I really compromise this time, and others see that I am easy to bully, will I have to pay again if another group of people come next time?

If this goes on, will I be able to continue my business?

"Come on, follow me back and take a look." Lu Hai said directly.

When Lai Anbang heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Should we call them over? If they haven't gone far and come back again, I'm afraid the three of us won't be able to defeat them."

"There's no need. Why should we be afraid of those second-rate guys? Don't forget what we did when we were in the village." Lu Hai waved his hand and said directly.

When Lai Anbang heard this, since Lu Hai had his own idea, he naturally didn't say anything more.

So, leaving Yang Huaiding and Jiang Wenbai to continue sleeping, the two of them hurried out and headed towards the hot pot restaurant.

Not long after, Lu Hai came to the store.

Seeing the mess in the store, Lu Hai's eyes became a little uncertain.

Luo Yongfeng, who had been guarding the store, saw Lu Hai coming and hurried out to greet him.

"Brother Lu."

"Yeah." Lu Hai nodded. "How much is the store's loss? Have you calculated it?"

"I just took a quick look and saw the broken glass and stolen drinks. The total loss is probably about two or three hundred dollars."

"Originally they wanted to take the pots away, but because they were too heavy, they gave up. Otherwise, the loss would be even greater."

"Also, they smashed the power switch and cut the wires," said Luo Yongfeng.

Lu Hai looked around and was lucky that these people did not damage the decoration of the store.

We will find someone to install the glass tomorrow, and reconnect the electrical wires and the switch, so we can reopen the business.

However, this delay will probably waste another two days.

Although he lost a few hundred dollars, it was still within Lu Hai's acceptable range.

The key is that this matter must be resolved. Otherwise, just when we have finished it, the other party will come to destroy it again. Even if we are wealthy, we cannot withstand such a tampering by them.

Moreover, now is a critical period, and the time wasted is the most precious. No one has the time to waste with them every day, right?

"Okay, in that case, you go find the previous master tomorrow and have these things reinstalled. I will find a way to deal with these people." Lu Hai said in a cold tone.

Lai Anbang was stunned for a moment, "Brother Lu, what are you going to do? Do you really have to pay that protection fee when the time comes?"

"Protection money?" Lu Hai sneered when he heard this.

"If I were such a coward, I wouldn't have come to Kyoto to open a restaurant. Wouldn't it be better for me to stay at home and wash diapers?"

"Okay, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it. When Wen Bo and the others come tomorrow morning, you just need to help them get the store ready for opening, and I'll take care of the rest."

After hearing this, the two of them said nothing more and nodded directly.

"Okay, Brother Lu."
