Chapter 140 I am Qiao 3's umbrella
Qiao San widened his eyes and stared at Chen Feng in disbelief, as if he had heard something incredible.
Chen Feng, with a calm expression and a faint smile on his face, continued, "Use the familiar, not the new; that's the rule. You've been working in this area of Ninghai University for so long, and your experience is the most valuable. I'm letting you continue to run the business because I value this. Of course, I'll take a portion of the profits, but I'll also increase my investment accordingly."
He paused and said with longing, "Our goal isn't just to attract students from the school, but to turn this area into the busiest commercial district in all of Ninghai. Men, women, young and old, will love to come here to shop. It will also be a paradise for young people to have fun. Not only will we have what you're running now, but we'll also have internet cafes, bars, bookshops, coffee shops..."
Qiao San swallowed his saliva, his throat a little dry: "This...this is too big."
Chen Feng chuckled and waved his hand: "We're just getting started. Once things are stable here, we have bigger plans waiting for us. If you're interested, I'll take you along."
Chen Feng was thinking about getting involved in the real estate business, and the first name that popped into his head was Qiao San.
Why? Because this guy was very successful in the real estate demolition business in his previous life, and eventually became one of the most powerful gangsters in Ninghai.
If we can get this person here, it will be like having an extra trump card in our hand!
Chen Feng doesn't want to get involved in the underworld; that's not his way.
But he also knew that the domestic business environment would be extremely complex over the next 20 to 30 years, and that those without some skills would have no chance of navigating it. He needed to have some capable people on hand who could step up at critical moments; that was the best way forward.
Who among those who can make a name for themselves in the underworld is not a talent?
Qiao San is an example. Although his ending was not very good, he once made it to the CPPCC, but was eventually shot. But that was because he did not find the right backer and was probably betrayed by his own umbrella.
Chen Feng sighed, thinking: If I were to take care of him, at least I could keep him from going down that path of no return. He figured Qiao San still hadn't found his own umbrella of protection. Okay, then, let me be your umbrella!
At this time, Xiaotie and his friends came back with a big bag of barbecue and several boxes of beer. Everyone sat around on the steps and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Chen Feng picked up a skewer of barbecue and ate while chatting with Qiao San about the blueprint for the future. His tone was calm, but it made Qiao San, Xiao Tie and the other gangsters feel thrilled.
"You guys, you watch those Hong Kong gangster movies every day, and you only learn the basics. A true gangster is one who has brains and skills, not just fighting skills."
Xiao Tie and the others were stunned when they heard this. Someone couldn't help but interrupt, "Brother Feng, what should we do?"
"Remember two things: money and status. These are the foundation of your existence. I'm telling you now, but you might not understand. Take your time, and you'll understand later. Put away those mahjong machines, horse racing machines, and the like. They're too small..."
As they were talking, Bao Jianguo, Yu Sanhua and a group of girls walked out of the video room. When they saw the scene outside, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Bao Jianguo rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't believe it, while Yu Sanhua opened his mouth wide and forgot to eat the snacks in his hand.
The girls also looked at each other.
"This...what's going on? Why is Chen Feng sitting with Qiao San and the others eating meat and drinking?" a girl asked in a low voice.
"I don't know. Judging from his appearance, he seems to be quite familiar with Qiao San."
Several girls suddenly realized, "No wonder we have a place everywhere today, Chen Feng knows Qiao San."
Zhao Li looked at Chen Feng. She had almost given up hope, but now her eyes lit up again.
Ge Jing looked eager to try and wanted to go forward, but was hesitant. She held Zhao Li's hand and looked at Chen Feng, feeling restless.
She felt that Chen Feng, who was sitting on the steps at this moment, holding barbecue in his left hand and beer in his right hand, talking to Qiao Saner and a group of people with a faint smile on his face, exuded a dangerous and charming aura that deeply attracted her.
Makes her want to pounce on him.
The university was on vacation and there were fewer people on campus. Ning Yao seized the opportunity and strolled to Chen Feng's house.
She held the key that she had never returned in her hand, opened the door with ease, put on her slippers, and called out as soon as she entered: "Auntie!"
No one answered, and she thought to herself that Chen Yufen must have gone to see Grandpa Geng at this time.
When he first came to Ninghai, Chen Feng took Chen Yufen and his younger sister Yaya to visit the Geng family at the invitation of Mr. Geng.
Chen Yufen had originally intended to express her gratitude, after all, the old man had helped Chen Feng a lot in the past. But once she got there, she felt an indescribable closeness to the old man.
The old man lived alone with a nanny. Chen Yufen was worried about him, so she often went to help him with cooking, washing clothes, etc.
Yaya is extremely close to Grandpa Geng. She feels that he dotes on her more than anyone else and always listens to his words.
The little girl ran to the old man as soon as she got home from school. The old man was worried and sent a guard to pick her up from school.
Ning Yao also met Grandpa Geng once. The old man briefly asked about her situation, chuckled a few times, and didn't say anything else.
Ning Yao knew the old man's identity clearly, but he just didn't understand why this old man was so kind to Chen Feng's family.
She later asked Chen Feng, but Chen Feng hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.
Ning Yao didn't ask any more questions, but she kept the matter a secret and never told anyone else, not even her father.
After walking around the house and seeing no one, Ning Yao went to his former bedroom and planned to take away the clothes he had left there.
She picked and chose, and suddenly felt that if she took all the clothes away, her connection with this place would be even less. With this thought, she put the clothes back where they belonged.
Then, as if possessed by a ghost, she pushed open Chen Feng's bedroom door and walked in.
The room was still the same. She sat on Chen Feng's bed, his scent lingering in her nose.
This feeling made her feel at ease. Before she knew it, her eyelids drooped and she fell asleep.
Chen Feng pushed open the door and saw Ning Yao lying on his bed. He paused for a moment, and after he came to his senses, the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily.
He tiptoed to the bedside and saw Ning Yao lying on her side, her long hair cascading down the pillow. A few strands of hair touched her cheeks, adding a touch of softness to her face.
Her eyelashes were long and trembled gently with her breathing. Her cheeks were slightly flushed and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. I wonder if she was dreaming about something happy.
Chen Feng's eyes moved across her face, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
