Chapter 554: Entertainment City Opens For Business

” Oh ? Fine…” Yang Dashan noticed that Yang Ming’s tone turned serious and he put away his smile. If it was in the past, Yang Dashan wouldn’t have listened to Yang Ming’s crap but now the situation was different. The reason he could obtain this Entertainment City was all due to Yang Ming, therefore, Yang Dashan couldn’t help but pay more attention to Yang Ming’s words. So he said, “Please ask. I’m listening.”

“How much did you borrow from the bank?” asked Yang Ming.

“It’s a total of… seven million roughly…” Yang Dashan hesitated.

“How much liquidity do you have in your hands now?” asked Yang Ming.

“There are… less than two hundred thousand yuan…” Yang Dashan said, “But let’s wait for the opening of Entertainment City tomorrow. It will be fine as long as we earn some profit.”

“…” Yang Ming sighed secretly. He had swallowed the words he was about to say back into his stomach. It was because there was no good talking about it. It was useless to say anything now. Yang Dashan had already invested all the money, and there wasn’t much leftover for liquidity. This was a taboo for opening an Entertainment City.

It seemed that everything was ready. Everything needed was available, pending the final push. But, for a person who had never opened up something similar in the industry, he wouldn’t be able to consider every aspect. He would overlook a lot of unexpected things in many cases.

For example, the daily wastage of ingredients, labor costs, repair of damaged equipment, stage performances, etc. All of this needed money. In other words, having around two hundred thousand yuan was simply not enough.

Never mind newcomers like Yang Dashan. Many people who had managed nightclubs and entertainment cities for many years were afraid to forgo a large amount of liquidity.

“What’s wrong?” Yang Dashan saw that Yang Ming wasn’t talking and asked curiously.

“Is the money invested by Bao Sanli in place?” Yang Ming asked. This might be his last straw to clutch at.

“It’s already here. I just invested everything in.” Yang Dashan said, “Brother Bao invested five million…”

Yang Ming was speechless. Looking at Yang Dashan’s eagerness, he couldn’t bear to pour cold water on him again. Since it already happened, Yang Ming just let him enjoy the day he had. It was useless for Yang Ming to comment further. Probably, fate might bring his Entertainment City business to be great again.

The next day was the business opening of Yang Dashan’s Tianjiao Entertainment City. In the morning, Yang Ming and his parents took a taxi to the development zone.

Yang Ming family was a relative of Yang Dashan. He was naturally placed in a seat closer to the front. After a while, Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan also arrived. When both of them saw Yang Ming’s parents, they didn’t come by to say hello. When it came to Bao Sanli, he was a crude person who didn’t have this kind of IQ. He must have been reminded by Hou Zhenhan before.

The opening of Entertainment City was lively. People all over Song Jiang came in support. But, most of them were directed at Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan.

Regardless if they were from the underworld or a legitimate organization, they knew Bai Sanli had a stake in the Entertainment City. That dispelled the idea of looking for trouble at the Entertaining City in the future.

After having a meal, Yang Ming’s parents left. Yang Dashan just came over for a toast and didn’t say anything else. Yang Ming’s parents couldn’t stand such a noisy atmosphere. They were the kind who preferred to be quiet. Usually, if they were to become lively, they would only be lively with people they knew. They only lived within their small circle.

Like today, his parents were a little uncomfortable eating together with a group of strangers. So, they left early after finishing their food, but Yang Ming was chatting happily with Yang Xiaobo. Yang Ming’s parents didn’t take Yang Ming back home together but instructed him to go back by himself after a while.

“Big Brother, Uncle’s Entertainment City is really luxurious!” Yang Xiaobo said with some admiration.

” Hehe , Xiaobo, you’re at the stage of learning now. Don’t think about useless stuff.” Yang Ming said in a lecturing tone, “Don’t come over secretly and play around!”

“Where can I have the money to play around? The prices here are definitely not cheap!” Yang Xiaobo said with a bit of a snarl.

“If you come, how can I still collect your money?” Yang Li barged in the conversation at this moment. “If you want to come, your sister will bring you around to play!”

Yang Ming immediately glanced at Yang Li after listening to her words. “Xiaobo is in high school. Don’t encourage him to do useless things.”

Yang Li was still very afraid of Yang Ming’s words after the incident, but she still had her usual habits. She ” hmph “-ed lightly, and then she said, “Well, let’s wait until you finish your college entrance examination. I will bring you around to play.”

After the college entrance examination was over? That would be in three years. It was hard to say that the Entertainment City would still be in business by then.

“Big brother… I thought about gathering my classmates after a few days. I want to bring them here. Can I?” Yang Xiaobo said with timidity to Yang Ming.

” Ha , Xiaobo, why don’t you talk to big sister about this? Why are you asking Yang Ming? Wasn’t this Entertainment City also opened by my family?” Yang Li didn’t dare to act pretentious on Yang Ming, but the tone of a person’s voice couldn’t be changed in such a short time. When it came to this Entertainment City, Yang Li’s words were somewhat proud.

Yang Ming wasn’t too angry but he rolled his eyes at Yang Li. “I haven’t seen you in the past few days. Have you gotten back the temper again?”

Yang Li had some grievances, but she didn’t dare to refute Yang Ming’s words. She had to say, “Xiaobo, if your big brother agrees, then you can do it.”

Yang Xiaobo didn’t know what happened between Yang Ming and Yang Li. At this moment, he noticed that the arrogant big sister was so afraid of his big brother’s words. He couldn’t help but feel baffled. However, he wasn’t stupid. He knew that some things couldn’t be asked in front of the two people. He pretended as though he didn’t notice it.

“After a few days?” Yang Ming frowned. “Are you guys coming here as freeloaders?”

“How can that be? We practice the AA system [1]. It’s just that we haven’t found a suitable place yet.” Yang Xiaobo said, “But you must let uncle give us a discount!”

“Don’t mention discounts. Even free orders will do!” Yang Li said in a rich and imposing manner.

” Hehe , forget about free orders. If you want to, just exempt me and my girlfriend from the bill.” Yang Xiaobo said with a smile.

“No problem!” Yang Li said like a hostess.

Yang Ming couldn’t help but shake his head. This Yang Li, she really doesn’t know her father’s current situation. Maybe Yang Dashan doesn’t realize it as well. At the beginning of a business opening, it will be supported mostly by relatives and friends. If all of them are exempted, where would the profit come? It seems as though one order doesn’t amount to anything. But, he doesn’t have much. The two hundred thousand yuan in his hands isn’t enough to entertain them.

However, Yang Ming couldn’t say it. He might speak up depending on the situation. Although Bao Sanli’s investment came from him, Yang Ming wasn’t afraid. If it was a loss, at the end of the day, the property and utilities would still remain!

After chatting for a while, Yang Ming got up and said, “You guys chat first. I need to go over there and have a look around.”

Yang Ming got up and came to the table of Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan. “Brother Bao, Brother Hou.”

“Brother Yang, please sit…” Bao Sanli smiled when he saw Yang Ming come over. “I was about to greet you. When I saw your parents, I didn’t come to say hello.”

“Yang Ming, how are you doing recently?” Hou Zhenhan’s superficial relationship with Yang Ming was an unfamiliar one, so it was impossible to call him Brother Yang.

“I’m fine.” Yang Ming smiled and nodded. “Brother Bao, you have grown a lot recently!”

” Hehe , it’s all due to Brother Hou, otherwise, I can’t manage such a big business myself…” Bao Sanli naturally couldn’t mention Mr. Y in front of outsiders. Currently, this information was kept in a confidential state. Aside from him and Hou Zhenhan, no one knew that there was still a boss behind.

“Brother Yang, do you have anything later? If you have nothing to do, come and visit my company.” Bao Sanli invited.

“Is it the Ming Yang Security Company?” asked Yang Ming.

“Yes, it’s the security company.” Bao Sanli nodded.

” Hehe , Ming Yang. Hehe , how come this company sounds more like mine? Ming Yang, Yang Ming…” Yang Ming smiled.

” Ha ! That’s exactly it!” Bao Sanli also nodded and smiled. “This name came from Brother Hou.”

“That’s fine. I have nothing to do. Let’s go and check it out!” Yang Ming smiled. “Moreover, it’s my own security company. Can I not visit it?”

Yang Ming’s words in Bao Sanli’s ear was a joke about the company’s name. But when Hou Zhenhan heard Yang Ming’s pun, he just maintained his composure.

In fact, Yang Ming also wanted to see how well Hou Zhenhan was managing the security company. After all, this was his own business. There was no excuse to go to visit before. Now, there was a chance to visit it.

“Okay, let’s go together in a while.” Bao Sanli nodded and said, “Let’s try the new car I bought…”

Just as Yang Ming wanted to speak, he didn’t expect the ability from that day to actually reappear…
