The village beauty and me!

"No, no!"

"The Jinhao Restaurant is now infamous."

"Whoever takes this job will lose money. Do you really think everyone else is stupid?" Chen Huan immediately objected.

The man opposite him frowned repeatedly and muttered under his breath, "Isn't this all your fault?"

Just as Chen Huan was about to get angry, Zhao Yaru said directly, "If it's a takeover, we don't need to pay any transfer fee, right?"

The man rubbed his hands together. "That definitely won't do. That's a huge restaurant; they spent a lot of money just on the renovations."

"The investment in all aspects amounts to a considerable sum."

"If you really want to take over, the costs are negotiable, but you can't get something for nothing."

Chen Huan pointed his finger at his nose, "Screw you! I wouldn't take it even if you gave it to me for free, and now you're trying to extort money from me?"

"Keep dreaming!"

Zhao Yaru rolled her eyes at him. "So you're planning to handle this yourself?"

"Why are you talking so much? You don't need me anymore?"

Chen Huan laughed awkwardly twice, rubbing his nose, and said, "Fine, fine, it's up to you. Anyway, you have money, so you can make the decision."

Zhao Yaru ignored him and turned to face the men in front of her. "I completely understand what you mean. The government invested money, so they're hoping to recoup their investment."

"How about this, I'll cover your investment and guarantee you won't suffer any losses."

"As for the rest, not a penny more."

"Anyway, I'm putting it this way: if you agree, we can discuss the specific contract details."

  

"If you don't want to, then please leave."

"But don't come here to cause trouble again. What I said earlier wasn't a joke."

"If you still don't believe me, I'll have my team send you a lawyer's letter right away."

His words were delivered with great force, completely giving the impression that he was in control.

The people on the other side didn't dare to respond quickly; they actually huddled together and discussed it for a while.

After a while, Zhao Yaru was getting impatient, her eyebrows furrowing more and more tightly.

The man who had been leading the group quickly came back over and said, "Young lady, you seem to be a straightforward person and have quite a head for business."

"We've discussed it and communicated with our superiors by phone, so let's proceed with your proposed plan."

"Shall we sign the contract now? When will the funds arrive in our account?"

It was clear that this guy was somewhat relieved.

However, when discussing the specific details of the contract, he always pretended to be frowning, as if he had suffered a great loss and Zhao Yaru had gained a great advantage.

Chen Huan knew nothing about contracts, so he simply sat on the sidelines watching the show while smoking a cigarette.

Leave everything to Zhao Yaru to handle.

In less than half an hour, the two sides had reached a complete agreement.

Zhao Yaru made a phone call, and her driver and assistant, who had been waiting nearby, rushed over, bringing with them a printed contract.

The people who came to cause trouble for Chen Huan received the transfer and left happily with the contract.

Zhao Yaru then handed the contract to Chen Huan, saying, "From now on, this Jinhao Restaurant belongs to both of us."

"I just put up a million in capital, so I'm the major shareholder, and you're the second largest shareholder. You don't need to contribute any money; the team will handle it."

"You're the one who's stupid. Someone just casually flattered you and you handed over a million?"

"Even if your Zhao family is rich, you don't spend money like this, do you?" Chen Huan scoffed, not even bothering to look at the contract.

But Zhao Yaru wasn't worried at all. "I won't make things difficult for you if you don't admit it."

"At worst, I just meant well by feeding the dog; consider this million as a lesson learned."

"It's my own fault for meeting the wrong person and getting bitten in return."

Chen Huan became increasingly angry as she listened. "You don't need to make veiled accusations here."

"I will remember your kindness in helping me resolve this matter."

"I can refund the money you spent, but isn't this the way to do things? This is letting them off too easily!"

Zhao Yaru raised her eyebrows. "How can you say it's a bargain for them?"

"We're the ones who really benefited."

"I just had my men investigate, and the Jinhao Restaurant did indeed cost a lot of money; the interior decoration is quite high-end."

"At least it ranks among the top in the county."

"Taking it over for one million is a great deal."

"As long as we hire some people and choose a good day, we can open for business immediately."

"Now is the tourist season, and people in the city are also going to the countryside to travel and explore. As long as you can run your hotel in a unique way, you can recoup your investment in no time."

Chen Huan pouted, "Dream on!"

"Your men have probably already told you that the area was infested with rats and is now infamous. Who would want to eat there?"

Zhao Yaru stared at him. "You were behind that rat infestation, weren't you?"

"Of course, you don't need to answer; I'm not interested in the answer."

"But no matter what, if I don't pay up, this matter won't be so easily resolved."

"Although the other party is bluffing a bit, if they really investigate, you will face some trouble no matter what, and at the very least, it will be much more difficult for you to do things in the area in the future."

"You don't really need to worry too much about the negative impact."

"That restaurant shouldn't have only targeted customers from a few nearby towns or the county; it should have taken a longer-term view."

"As I always say, as long as you have something unique, you'll have no trouble making a fortune."

Chen Huan still frowned, "What's so special about it? What makes it special?"

Zhao Yaru looked at him with a half-smile, "I remember you have a friend who owns a sauerkraut fish restaurant."

"The sauerkraut fish restaurant is booming because it uses your ingredients; isn't that what makes it special?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Huan's eyes gradually brightened. "You mean, you want me to cooperate with Qiao Lingling and the others?"

"Should we directly expand and strengthen the sauerkraut fish restaurant?"

Zhao Yaru nodded in satisfaction, "You're not stupid after all."

Chen Huan clicked his tongue. "Don't give me that."

"Your idea is worth considering, but I don't know if Qiao Lingling and the others would be willing."

Zhao Yaru smiled confidently, "You don't need to worry about that at all."

"Your two friends used to run a big restaurant in Dongjiang City, but they were framed and went bankrupt, so they fled to this small place and opened a small restaurant to make a living."

"People like this will seize any opportunity, even the smallest one, with all their might."

"So, as long as you're willing to step in, this matter has a very high chance of succeeding."

Chen Huan gasped, "Miss Zhao, you're really well-informed."

"You've investigated the backgrounds of even the people I deal with so thoroughly, what are you trying to do?"

Zhao Yaru frowned slightly. "I just want to know more about you."

"After all, in just a few days, we'll be, you know..."

At this point, Zhao Yaru's face began to blush slightly again.

Chen Huan's frustration vanished instantly. "If that's what you're saying, then I'm actually looking forward to that day."
