Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 253
According to the mainstream view, the sauna originated from the European country Finland, so it is also called "Finnish bath".Using the hot and cold stimulation of repeated dry steaming and washing on the whole body, the blood vessels can be expanded and contracted repeatedly, which can enhance the elasticity of blood vessels, prevent hardening of blood vessels, and have very good health care functions.

Sauna originated in Finland, but it also began to develop rapidly in Hong Kong and even China in the 90*[-]s, especially in developed cities such as BJ, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Taking a sauna has become a good way for urbanites to relieve work pressure.After the transformation of the Chinese, the sauna, which is more suitable for the enjoyment of the human body, has become popular all over the world.

And what Qin Haoran wants to develop is this industry.Sauna was originally a health care activity that every household likes in Finland, but after arriving in Hong Kong and mainland China, some "extra" services are gradually attached to sauna, such as foot massage, massage, etc., and the most important thing is Pornographic services.

Qin Haoran is very clear that if a sauna business does not provide pornographic services, it will never be prosperous, especially in those developed coastal cities, the well-regulated sauna places will definitely not be able to compete with those that provide pornographic services of the sauna.

On the other hand, because the consumption required to take a sauna is not too high, most of them can go there to enjoy it, which leads to the mixed dragons and snakes in the sauna place, and in this way, there must be gangsters. Only when people frighten the scene can the sauna shop continue to operate.

Therefore, later on, the sauna city became one of the most important businesses of the underworld.

Although this sauna business is not very serious, it is always better than drug trafficking, and it can help Qin Haoran expand the influence of the "Kirin Club" quickly, so Qin Haoran had the idea to develop this business from a very early age. Kind of entertainment industry.

The cost of doing a sauna business is mainly the storefront and equipment, and skilled massage technicians are also needed.

In terms of storefronts, the land in Hong Kong is very cheap now, especially the land with a size of several hundred square meters, which can be bought with basically no money.Before the development of the real estate industry, Qin Haoran could easily buy dozens of such lands in Kowloon and Hong Kong.

The difficulty lies in the equipment and massage technicians. Qin Haoran also worked in hotels and saunas in his "previous life", so he knows how the sauna equipment is made.However, with the current level of technology, the cost of ordering such equipment is quite high.

As for massage technicians, because the massage and massage service industry has not yet flourished, most of them are only known to senior doctors in hospitals.Although Qin Haoran also knows the massage techniques commonly used in some sauna places, it is not easy to retrain a group of technicians.Moreover, these technicians can't help but know how to massage, and most of them have to be "competent". This requires selecting suitable women from the brothels controlled by the "Kirin Society" for training, which is another difficulty.

"Second Young Master, if this 'sauna' is really so good, let's do it." Zhou Chaosheng rubbed his nose and said: "Second Young Master you said so comfortable, I want to try it."

Qin Haoran laughed and said, "It's not that easy. For this equipment alone, only Finland and Turkey have more traditional equipment in the world. If we want to do it, we can't just copy their original methods. We need to do it ourselves. Improvement. But I am very clear about the specific transformation method, so the difficulty should not be too great, at most it is just a matter of money."

Then, Qin Haoran told Zhou Chaosheng, Su Guoqiang and others about his plan. The first step is to open about ten stores in various streets of Yau Ma Tei, and then gradually expand the opening as the "Kirin Club" expands. go.

"Because of the threshold of equipment and technology, in the past two or three years, there should not be many people who can keep up with us and enter the sauna industry." Qin Haoran said: "So we should take advantage of this period of time to cover the market as much as possible." In your hands, occupy this piece of the market.”

After a pause, he said to Lan Gang: "If there are really overreaching people involved in this industry in the past two or three years, Lan Gang, then it will be up to you."

"Understood, Second Young Master." Lan Gang nodded repeatedly.

Qin Haoran's meaning is very simple, that is, if someone else dares to start this sauna business, let Lan Gang sweep his place every day to make it impossible to operate.Anyway, this is not a matter of murder and arson, vicious competition, Qin Haoran is very skilled in doing it.

As for the funds for opening the sauna city, it will be paid by the "Kirin Club" for the time being, and will be paid by "Tianlang International" when the money from the "Kirin Club" is not enough.Because the "Kirin Club" has earned more than 200 million and 300 million yuan in operating brothels and casinos since its establishment. Except for the one distributed to the brothers below, the rest have not been touched, and now they are just used to invest in saunas.

After discussing some specific details, Qin Haoran let everyone disperse.

On the way back with Gu Xiangling and his three daughters, Zhou Luohong suddenly said to Qin Haoran, "Brother Ran, why don't I also learn the massage you just mentioned, okay?"

Qin Haoran was taken aback: "Why are you learning this?"

Because Qin Haoran, an "old Jianghu", knows that with the development of the massage and massage service industry, there are basically no massage technicians who are serious and clean, so massage technicians are also a kind of prostitute to a certain extent. How could Qin Haoran let Zhou Luohong do it?

Zhou Luohong smiled charmingly and said: "After I learn it, I can help Brother Ran do it for you."

Qin Haoran suddenly realized when he heard the words, he couldn't help but patted the little girl's head with a smile, and said with a smile: "You are so young, what are you doing learning these things, let's work hard to do a good job of studying, in this way I will be better." happy."

But I heard Zhou Luohong talking to herself with a small mouth: "I have already passed the first grade, and this is not considered to be a good study."

"Little girl, don't be proud." Qin Haoran pinched her pink and tender cheeks, making Zhou Luo's eyes turn red.

But Gu Xiangling and Xue Danfeng looked at each other at this time, and they both saw each other's thoughts.When they were in the box of the teahouse just now, they could see that when Qin Haoran talked about the sauna and massage, there was a look of anticipation in his eyes, and he clearly wanted to enjoy it.

Now they heard Zhou Luohong say that they wanted to learn this kind of massage and massage, so they immediately had the same idea. Instead of asking Qin Haoran to go outside and let those women massage him, it would be better to let Gu Xiangling and Xue Danfeng come by themselves.

Naturally, Qin Haoran didn't know that the two women had already made up their minds. In the future, they would secretly learn how to massage and massage with one hand, and they still teased Zhou Luohong, a cute little girl.

After returning to "Wilton Garden", Zhu Chengde stood guard in front of Qin Haoran's house and waited for him.

"Chengde, what's the matter?" Qin Haoran saw the anxious look on Zhu Chengde's face, so he asked.

Seeing Qin Haoran's return, Zhu Chengde immediately greeted him and said, "Second Young Master, Liu Haozhao from 'Desheng' said he had something important to come to see you, and now he is waiting for you, Second Young Master, at my place."

"Huh? He came to look for me? Did something happen to 'Desheng'?" Qin Haoran frowned and asked.

This Liu Haozhao is a nephew of Liu Shuilai, and he had followed Liu Shuilai to learn accountancy skills. Before Liu Shuilai and Qi Tao helped Zhou Hao manage "Tianlang International", they also took care of "Desheng"'s affairs.But later, the affairs of "Tianlang International" became more and more busy, and Liu Shuilai couldn't leave to take care of "Desheng".

So, with Qin Haoran's consent, Liu Shuilai asked his fairly talented nephew Liu Haozhao to take care of "Desheng".Anyway, "Desheng" is just used by Qin Haoran to lull and confuse the Qin family, and the profit in a year is only [-]. Compared with "Tianlang International", the business is much easier, and there are old employees who are familiar with the industry Help, Liu Haozhao can take care of it pretty well.

I only heard Zhu Chengde say: "Yes, Second Young Master, something happened to 'Desheng'. I heard from Liu Haozhao that the recent batch of goods bought from Malaysia were robbed at sea!"

"Killed?" Qin Haoran's expression darkened.

There are still pirates in the coastal area of ​​Hong Kong now, but they are far less rampant than before. For those large cargo ships, ordinary pirates still don't dare to touch them.I usually only heard that some small cruise ships were robbed by pirates, but I never heard of cargo ships being robbed.Because most of the goods transported on the cargo ship are large quantities and low prices, many of them still need special channels to sell, far from being as easy to deal with as gold, silver and jewelry, so those pirates rarely do such thankless things .

Qin Haoran said to Gu Xiangling and the others: "Xiangling, you go back first, I'll go see Liu Haozhao."

After all, Qin Haoran followed Zhu Chengde to his residence below, and also met Liu Haozhao.

Liu Haozhao is only 23 years old this year, tall and thin, and looks a bit frail.Seeing Qin Haoran coming in, he quickly stood up from the sofa, and greeted Qin Haoran cautiously: "Second young master."

"Sit down." Qin Haoran said, sitting opposite Liu Haozhao, and asked straight to the point: "What's going on, how did the goods of 'Desheng' be robbed? Was it the pirates?"

Liu Haozhao said: "It's not clear yet, but the crew we sent out only came back in a small lifeboat. According to them, not only the cargo was robbed, but even the ship was bombed and sunk by those people. "

"Even the ship sank?" Qin Haoran frowned, because few pirates would do such a great job.
