Faced with Xu Yongwei's sarcasm, the mild-mannered Yan Tong couldn't help being a little angry.

But Zhou Hao said with a faint smile: "Actually, fast food restaurants are not as simple as you think."

With the current situation, just one branch of Mrs. Zhou's restaurant can make a profit of 1.5 million to 2 million a year, and the profit of "Full House" is not much different.

In particular, Zhou Hao asked Yan Tong and Lu Shiping to launch themed cakes with various festival themes, which were extremely popular.

And Zhou Li often manages hardware and building materials, and can earn at most two million a year, which can only be compared with a branch of Mrs. Zhou's restaurant.

However, Zhou Lichang and his wife don't pay much attention to it on weekdays. How can they imagine that Mrs. Zhou's restaurant has almost monopolized the fast food market in Xiangcheng.

So Xu Yongwei only thought that Zhou Hao's words were just bluntness caused by pride.

She smiled and said: "Of course it's not easy. You have to go to the market to bargain with those who buy chickens and ducks, and you have to worry about the landlord increasing the rent from time to time. It's really not easy to do fast food."

"We don't need to pay rent, we just bought the store." Zhou Hao smiled slightly.

All the branches of Mrs. Zhou Restaurant and "Full House" were purchased directly.

Because Zhou Hao knew that the value of those lots would increase greatly with the development of Xiangcheng in the future, and this way, he wouldn't have to pay the rent every year.

"Yo, that's amazing, what kind of 'wife' is that in your family?

You should be able to earn several thousand yuan a month, but it is much better than Ah Tong, who used to help people sweep the floor and wash dishes. "Xu Yongwei laughed disdainfully.

"It's Mrs. Zhou's restaurant." Zhou Hao helped her correct it with a smile.

Xu Yongwei wanted to say something else, but she heard a man on the sofa next to her exclaim.

"What? Mrs. Zhou's restaurant? You opened Mrs. Zhou's restaurant?" This person is a business friend of Zhou Lichang.

Both Zhou Lichang and Xu Yongwei looked at him suspiciously, Zhou Lichang said: "Brother Chai, do you know that store?"

"Of course I know." The man Zhou Li often called Brother Chai stood up from the sofa.

At this time, when he saw Zhou Hao's face, his face immediately changed, "You, you are Zhou...Mr. Zhou?"

Now Zhou Hao also felt strange, and asked Brother Chai, "You know me?"

"Hehe, Mr. Zhou, have you forgotten me?

Boss Huo and I had dinner with you before, but for a small person like me, Mr. Zhou must not have much impression of it. "The Chai brother smiled humbly.

"Boss Huo?" Zhou Hao was stunned for a moment, and soon understood, "Oh, it's that guy Huo Liang."

Huo Liang was the owner of the hardware store that Zhou Hao met when he opened his first Mrs. Zhou restaurant.

played a game.

However, after knowing that Zhou Hao had a close relationship with Situ Li, the director of the Public Security Bureau, Huo Liang immediately gave in. He not only gave Zhou Hao the store for free, but also gave Zhou Hao an extra 100,000 yuan in compensation.

Huo Liang's subordinates on that street even took care of Mrs. Zhou's restaurant openly and secretly, preventing the punks from making trouble in it.

Later, when Huo Liang knew that even Wen Xiangdong, the leader of the mafia in Xiangcheng, greeted Zhou Hao with a smile, he became more respectful towards Zhou Hao.

In order to thank him for helping to take care of Mrs. Zhou's restaurant, Zhou Hao invited him to dinner several times, which made Huo Liang very flattered.

And this brother Chai is one of Huo Liang's subordinates, and he is also a member of the underworld.

After Zhou Lichang heard Zhou Hao's words, he also showed a shocked expression, "Xiao Hao, do you know Boss Huo?"

Since Huo Liang has a lot of people in Xiangcheng, and he started his business by dealing in hardware and building materials, Zhou Li often has many business contacts with him.

And because Huo Liang has a gangster background, Zhou Lichang is also in awe of him.

Now hearing that Zhou Hao actually directly called Huo Liang "that guy", Zhou Lichang was greatly surprised.

At this time, Brother Chai said again: "Oh, I really didn't expect that Mr. Zhou is your nephew, old Zhou.

You don't know, there are only eight restaurants in Mrs. Zhou's restaurant in Xiangcheng, and the business of each restaurant is very good.

Adding it up, I'm afraid there will be tens of millions in the account a year. Also, Mr. Zhou and our Boss Huo are good friends. Our boss often says that Mr. Zhou is a hero out of a boy. "

After hearing Brother Chai's words, Zhou Lichang and Xu Yongwei's eyes widened. They never imagined that what they thought was a fast food restaurant with a monthly income of only a few thousand yuan could earn tens of millions a year.

What surprised them the most was that Zhou Hao seemed to have a lot of friendship with Huo Liang.

"By the way, what about Huo Liang, I haven't seen him for a while." Zhou Hao asked Brother Chai.

"Oh, our boss went to visit Master Dong today.

By the way, Mr. Zhou, before we met Master Dong, he was still talking about you to our boss, saying that you haven't been to the Dynamic City for a long time. " Brother Chai said with a smile.

The "Dongye" he referred to was Wen Xiangdong.

Zhou Lichang naturally knew "Mr. Dong", but he didn't expect Zhou Hao to even know someone like Wen Xiangdong.

"He's just joking. How could he really want me to go to the Dynamic City, so he wouldn't be afraid to lose all his money to me?" Zhou Hao said with a faint smile.

Brother Chai immediately flattered him and said: "That's that, now everyone on the road knows that Mr. Zhou has excellent gambling skills, and our boss even said that you are our Xiangcheng God of Gamblers."

Yan Tong next to him said, "Xiaohao, you

gamble? "

Because Zhou Hao's father, Zhou Liren, was a gambler and lost all the money in the family

, so Yan Tong hates gambling very much.

"Don't worry, Mom, I know how to measure, I'm not the kind of real gambler." Zhou Hao smiled at Yan Tong.

"Anyway, gambling is always bad." Yan Tong shook his head and said.

However, she also knew that her son was very independent, and he was not the kind of person who would lose his fortune by gambling. She was very relieved about this.

Zhou Lichang and Xu Yongwei were completely stunned. People like Wen Xiangdong couldn't even win over people like Wen Xiangdong. Now it seems that Zhou Hao has a good friendship with these "big shots".

"Xiaohao, I'm a little anxious and want to go to the toilet." Yan Tong said at this time.

Xu Yongwei also saw the opportunity quickly, and immediately said: "The toilet is over there, I will take you there."

At this time, Brother Chai also said to Zhou Hao: "Mr. Zhou, let's play 'hoeing the earth' over there, let's go together."

"Aren't you afraid of losing all your money to me?" Zhou Hao laughed.

"If it's Mr. Zhou, it's worth it if I lose everything." Brother Chai said immediately. Push Zhou Hao into the gambling game over there.

Turning around, he whispered to Zhou Lichang: "Old Zhou, it's because you are wrong, how come you have such a big backer and didn't tell your brother."

"I...I..." Zhou Lichang said: "Brother Chai, does Xiao Hao really know Boss Huo and Master Dong?"

"It's not just acquaintance, let me tell you, in fact, our boss and Master Dong are trying to please your nephew, just for fear that he will lose face." Brother Chai said.

"Also, not only our boss and Master Dong, but your nephew is very close to Director Situ of the Public Security Bureau and Mayor Gao.

I also heard that when the Japanese came to our Xiangcheng, your nephew went with Mayor Gao and the others. Do you think about his relationship with Mayor Gao and the others? "

Zhou Lichang was dumbfounded, and he never expected that Zhou Hao knew all the important people he couldn't get in touch with.

"Let me tell you, you have such a nephew, do you still need to look around to solicit business? You remember that when you get rich in the future, don't forget me, brother." Brother Chai said.

Zhou Lichang frowned, but he understood how his family treated mother and child in the past.

It's lucky that Zhou Hao didn't set up some stumbling blocks for him to step on. Can he still count on him to support him?

At this time, Brother Chai had already gone over to play cards with Zhou Hao.

Seeing Zhou Hao's back and Brother Chai who was trying to please him, Zhou Lichang gritted his teeth, walked over, and said to Zhou Hao and the others: "Add me, I'll come and play too."

Brother Chai said to another man at the same table who was in the fruit wholesale business: "Since our Mr. Zhou is here.

Then let's play bigger ones, how about 3,000 yuan as the bottom and 1,000 yuan for one card? "

"But I don't bring that much cash." Zhou Hao

Therefore, it is a difficult way.

Brother Chai hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, we still can't trust you, Mr. Zhou, or else it's fine, I'll pay Mr. Zhou for the shortfall."

Thus, the four of them started a gambling game.

"The three of diamonds come out first." Brother Chai said.

"Here we come, a three-four-five-six-seven straight." The man in the fruit wholesale business showed his cards with a smile.

Zhou Li often looked at the three j's on his hand, and seeing Zhou Hao and Brother Chai looking at him, he said, "I haven't, yes."

Zhou Hao smiled, "Me neither, too."

"Then I won't be polite." Brother Chai took out five cards, which were a flush of hearts.

"Hey hey, I'm very lucky in this set." The fruit seller smiled and put down five more cards, which were three 5s and a pair of 6s.

Zhou Lichang still refrained from playing his three jacks. As Zhou Hao's master, he was afraid that if he showed his cards, he would block Zhou Hao.

Then Zhou Hao smiled and said, "I can't let you go this time, 9 of 3." He said and showed five cards.

Brother Chai and the fruit seller both gave up, but Zhou Lichang still showed his three dicks and said with a smile, "Me neither."

"You don't have those three 10's either." Zhou Hao showed five more cards.

The three of Zhou Lichang shook their heads, and Zhou Hao smiled and showed the two biggest 2s and a 3 of clubs, so he had no more cards in his hand.

"Wow, old Zhou, you doubled it four times." Brother Chai looked at the complete thirteen cards in Zhou Lichang's hand.

Calculated in this way, Zhou Lichang would lose tens of thousands of yuan in this game alone.

"It's okay, Xiaohao is my family anyway, so it's okay to lose to my family." Zhou Lichang said with a smile.

Zhou Hao squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Lichang with a smile on his face. With his super intuition, he could naturally know that Zhou Lichang lost to him on purpose.
