C1 Business

The world economy further integrated development, some cities took the opportunity to rise and develop into super cities, while others gradually declined due to their economic transformation. The world was no longer as beautiful as it used to be, with environmental pollution and the gap between rich and poor increasing, causing the entire world to become even more unstable.

As the sun set, the neon lights began to shine throughout the city. After a day's work, most people returned to their warm homes, feeling a unique warmth and sweetness.

In some other corners of the city, there were some people who liked to move around at night and had just left the city.

H City was a very poor city. As an industrial city, H City had once had a glorious life. However, as a result of environmental pollution and industrial transformation, the economy of H City was affected. The biggest influence was Bei An City.

The Beian district was located in the southern part of the city, which was already at the edge of the city, because it used to exist as the industrial raw material processing area of the city. In the past, the people's standard of living in the Beian district was relatively high because of the industrial city's development, but now that the living standards of the industrial city had declined, the city construction of the entire Beian district naturally couldn't keep up with the progress of the times.

On a long street, there were rows of nightclubs with different storefronts, shining lights, inviting customers. This was the most bustling place in the entire Beian district at night, almost all the people in the district would gather here at night. On one hand, it was for entertainment, and on the other hand, they would exchange intelligence, looking for any opportunity to make a fortune.

From the front of the street, although the signs were shabby, they still took the effort to recruit customers. However, at the corner of the street, there was an inconspicuous shop with a single light at the door. Next, there was a small wooden board with the words "Today's business" written on it.

In the dim light, faint sounds of music could be heard from time to time, adding to the mysteriousness of the shop.

In short, each and every one of them told the story of this mysterious nightclub, and none of them were positive. Some said that this shop was a dark shop, and anyone who ate or drank anything in it would be charmed to death. Some said that the feng shui of this shop was ominous, and anyone who went in would be unlucky.

The most outrageous part was that it was a haunted house. The lights outside the shop only served to confuse the employees. Regardless of the nameless nightclub, this storefront had always existed.

Forgotten blocks, forgotten storefronts, still in lonely and tenacious existence.

At this time, in this mysterious shop, there was the sound of music once again. Occasionally, the residents who passed by this street would cautiously avoid it and walk on the opposite side of the street.

However, a thin youth slowly walked over from afar. He had his head lowered and his neck hunched. He was wearing a slightly worn out leather jacket as he hurried towards this mysterious nightclub.

Arriving at the entrance of this mysterious nightclub, he did not hide or fear like the others. Instead, he pushed open the door and entered.

Entering this nightclub, he saw that it was actually a bar, and felt his line of sight widen. Although the bar in front of him was still small, only thirty square meters, but compared to a lamp in the shop and a door the size of an ordinary house, the space inside was indeed much larger, at least much larger than he had expected.

A few customers were holding glasses in their hands as they sipped their beer. Watching this young man suddenly push open the door and enter, they raised their heads to take a look, then immediately lowered their heads and continued to drink. They were completely interested in this young man who had a pretty face but a thin and weak figure.

The young man raised his head and glanced at the customers who were drinking, then walked straight to the bar in front of them. Sitting on the chair in front of the bar, he smiled at the staff with goodwill, and even with flattery.

"Hehe, sister, give me a glass of beer to wake you up."

"What is it? You're alive again. Where did you make your fortune in just a few days? Or was he captured for research? If you want a beer, that's fine too. But first, you have to pay back the money you owe the previous few times. " The beauty in the bar looked to be in her twenties. She had a oval face and long hair that fell down to her shoulders. She saw the young man sitting in front of her, smiling.

"Uh, this …" The first thing he said was, "Money is just for show. It's something that you can't take with you even if you're dead. I did make a small fortune earlier, but I accidentally spent it all. So, you know, this."

"Humph!" If you want to drink, then return the money first. The beautiful woman harrumphed coldly before she turned away, taking care of the wine glasses and wine bottles on top of the wine shelf.

"Why are you doing this?" "The owner of the bar had said that I could get my credit here, yet you still tried to obstruct me. This is clearly a thankless task." The youth curled his lips and continued to speak with unwillingness.

"Are you trying hard or not? "This boss is my dad. In the future, I will inherit and manage this store. If I can't buy anything for free like you, how will I manage this store in the future?" The corner of the beautiful woman's eyes twitched as she turned around and began lecturing the youth again.

That teenager lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to fight with the beauty head on, he could only mutter, "You're so fierce, you can go out and steal a shop, do you really need to inherit your family in the future? Plus, owing your dad money is easy, who would dare to owe you money."

"What did you say?" Muttering? " The beauty raised her eyebrows again and asked loudly.

"Nothing. Everything is normal. It's just that I've just woken up. My head is spinning and I'm still hungry." The youth quickly made it clear that he was not being rude. As he said this, he patted his belly to show that he was hungry. He looked pitifully at the beauty, completely unfazed by the serious expression on her face.

"Here, eat something first. Don't be hungry." On top of it was a hamburger and a chicken leg, which she placed in front of the young man. She said, "You're not young anymore, can't you just find a proper job and sleep all day, and come out at night to mess around? How can I attract you to me like this?"

"Heh heh, that's hard to say. Besides, I'm not completely muddling along. I even helped quite a few people. This can be considered a kind of accomplishment." When the youth saw the chicken leg, his eyes were already straight. He no longer had the time to argue with the beauty in front of him. He spoke a few random words, picked up the chicken leg, and started chewing on it.

The young man was eating his food in big mouthfuls, while the beautiful ladies at the bar were nagging him. Music was playing one after another inside the bar. Some of the customers were drinking in big gulps, while others were already drunk.

At this time, the door to the shop was suddenly pushed open again, and a tall and sturdy middle-aged man wearing a black trench coat walked in. He had a square face and a determined gaze, slowly sweeping a glance over the bar, and then directly went in front of the bar, asking the beauty there.

"Miss, I want to find a person called Liu Zichen. I wonder if he's with you?"

Just as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the young man who was chewing on a chicken leg immediately stopped. He looked at the middle-aged man with a side glance, causing the beautiful lady at the counter to look at him warily. Then, with a guarded tone, she asked, "Why are you looking for him? It seems like you aren't from here either. How did you know about him? "

The middle-aged man didn't answer directly, but smiled instead. He tilted his head and looked at the stunned young man and asked, "So you are Liu Zichen?" I have a big business deal with you, do you want to take it? "

He didn't understand that this person was asking him where he was just now, but it was just a simple conversation, and he already recognized him, but hearing that he was looking for him to do business, his guard was lowered. He said, "It's me, but my price is higher than others, and how do you know about me?"

The middle-aged man raised his head with a proud smile and said, "Price is no problem, as long as you are truly capable. As for how we found you, you are quite famous in this business. You should know this better than me, right?" To be honest, I didn't know you had a job before. "

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Liu Zichen nodded slowly. From the man's words, he had deduced that this was indeed a potential customer, and not someone who wanted to cause trouble for him. Thinking that he now had a job to do, and a good income, a smile appeared on his face.

"Liu Zichen, you, you …" The beauty behind the bar, however, still had a face full of worry. Looking at the youth's eyes, she couldn't help but wink at him, hoping that he would carefully ask her to confirm her identity.

"Tingting, don't worry. We have a way to determine that there won't be any problems." Liu Zichen comforted the beauty at the counter, then turned to ask the middle-aged man, "When? "Location?"

Don't look at how Liu Zichen usually laughed with a cynical attitude. However, when it came to serious matters, it was as if he had suddenly become a different person. His tone was straightforward and concise.
