Hong Kong film: Zhou Chu eliminates the three evils, I am the leader of the Sanlian Gang

Half of it had to be handed over to the Sanlian Gang headquarters alone, 1500 million, and the remaining 1500 million was used to support more than 1000 underlings.

Now his underlings have expanded to more than 1000 people, up from only 500 before. He recruited many more after annexing the West District.

The money he gives to his underlings every month is quite a lot. In addition, there are appearance fees, settlement allowances, and medical expenses for any conflicts in the underworld. Ren Jiu probably only gets a few million a month.

After getting the system, Ren Jiu really didn't care about this little bit of money. He spent his days fighting and killing, earning only this trivial amount of money. It's true that being a lowly figure in the martial arts world has no future; you have to be a business tycoon to succeed.

Ren Jiu is just a gangster; he didn't have any business acumen in his past life. Now, even if he wanted to go it alone, he couldn't make a name for himself. To do business, he still had to rely on the gang's resources.

When Ren Jiu thought of the gang, he suddenly had an idea. Now that he had taken over the West District, he could monopolize the liquor business in Taipei's West District.

After all, alcohol is always worth a lot of money. Now this entire western district is his territory, and he calls the shots. Besides, as long as he has a monopoly, he won't have to worry about not making money.

There are many bars, KTVs and various entertainment venues in the West District of Taipei City.

Ren Jiu waved his hand and said to Lao Shuming:

"Go and arrange for someone to find a brewery. I'm planning to open one, preferably one that's struggling and on the verge of bankruptcy."

Mouse Ming was a little puzzled. A big shot owning a brewery? But he didn't ask any more questions and immediately agreed.

"I understand, boss."

Rat Ming is well-informed in the martial arts world, and this matter is expected to be resolved soon. Ren Jiu plans to do business first.

Chapter Fourteen: Buying a Brewery

Inside the villa in the West District, this villa is Ren Jiu's private property. The villa is fully equipped with facilities such as massage, sauna, and swimming pool.

Inside the villa's gym, Ren Jiu, wearing only shorts, was practicing shadow boxing, using shadows as targets to simulate attacks from imaginary enemies.

Shadow boxing is an essential path to becoming a boxing master, as it can rapidly improve reaction and dodging abilities. It also incorporates the unique footwork of Muay Thai, allowing for agile evasion.

Ren Jiu's punches were incredibly powerful, swift, and deadly.

At this moment, Xiao Mei suddenly pushed open the gym door. As soon as she entered, she saw Ren Jiu, who was tall, muscular, and covered in sweat, and was immediately attracted.

Ren Jiu's abs are clearly defined, and he exudes masculine hormones.

A blush crept across Xiao Mei's face as she looked at Ren Jiu and said somewhat shyly:

"Ninth Brother, the food is ready."

After Xiaomei finished speaking, she thoughtfully handed over the towel.

Ren Jiu stopped boxing, took the towel, wiped his sweat, and nodded.

"Let's go eat together."

After saying that, Ren Jiu led Xiao Mei to the dining table. It has to be said that Xiao Mei's cooking skills were quite good. Although the dishes on the table were all home-style dishes, they looked extremely appetizing.

Claypot rice, roast chicken, roast chicken wings, and some mainland Chinese dishes, such as Kung Pao chicken and shredded pork with garlic sauce.

Xiao Mei cooked five or six dishes just to satisfy Ren Jiu's taste. Now Xiao Mei has closed her hair salon and has nowhere to go.

So she followed Ren Jiu, who arranged for Xiao Mei to live in his villa. Anyway, apart from some of his subordinates, there wasn't much else living in his villa.

There are quite a few empty rooms in this villa, which is perfect for Xiaomei to stay in.

However, Xiao Mei still seemed a bit cautious and reserved, often unconsciously watching Ren Jiu's expression. She couldn't shake the fearful and timid personality she had when she was with Aberdeen.

Ren Jiu naturally noticed this scene, took the food Xiao Mei handed him, smiled, and spoke in a relaxed tone:

"Xiaomei, don't be so reserved. We'll all be family from now on."

Although Xiao Mei listens to Hong Konger in everything, she has always wanted to rebel. Ren Jiu knows about Xiao Mei's past and hopes that she can find some peace and not be bound by the past.

Xiao Mei looked at Ren Jiu and suddenly smiled: "I understand, Brother Jiu."

Xiao Mei's tense body relaxed, and she started eating. She even thoughtfully served food to Ren Jiu, which eased the atmosphere considerably.

Suddenly, a voice came from afar.

"It smells amazing, boss."

Mouse Ming walked in from outside the villa. Seeing the food on the table, he thought he was in for a treat and called out to Ren Jiu and Xiao Mei:

"Boss, sister-in-law."

Upon hearing this address, Xiao Mei blushed deeply, nearly dropping her bowl and chopsticks. Feeling flustered, she lowered her head and remained silent.

Ren Jiu frowned and shook his head: "Mouse Ming, don't shout."

Mouse Ming scratched his head, not daring to go any further: "I was just joking, boss."

Ren Jiu saw so much food on the table: "Mouse Ming, you're in for a treat today. Come and get your own bowl and chopsticks to eat."

Mouse Ming immediately agreed with a smile, picked up a stool as if they were old friends, and scooped himself a big bowl of rice.

Xiao Mei sat quietly to the side, chewing slowly. Mouse Ming opened a can of beer for himself and said as he ate:

"Boss, I've made progress on the brewery investigation you asked me to do. I've found a suitable one."

“There’s a small brewery in our western district called Zhongtai Brewery. The owner, Lao Liu, has been struggling to keep the brewery afloat these past few years and has accumulated a lot of debt.”

"Zhongtai Brewery?"

Ren Jiu had never heard of them. The biggest brewery brands in Taiwan are Heineken and Gold Medal, and the rest are also quite well-known.

But I've never heard of the beer brand "Zhongtai" before, no wonder it's almost gone out of business.

Ren Jiu took a bite of his food and said, "Continue."

Mouse Ming put down his chopsticks and said, "Old Liu's small brewery is being squeezed out by the big breweries. It's in debt and can't keep going. Buying it should be very cheap."

"Boss, this one is perfect."

Ren Jiu nodded, already having made up his mind:

"Mouse Ming, arrange to meet with Lao Liu. Come to my office this afternoon to discuss the price."

Mouse Ming was stunned. He hadn't expected the big shot to actually want to buy the brewery, especially one that was on the verge of bankruptcy. Being a short-statured mule, he knew almost nothing about business and couldn't help but ask:

"Boss, are we really going to open a brewery?"

Ren Jiu said calmly, "I not only want to open a brewery, I also want to sell it. You go and talk to him first."

Mouse Ming didn't ask any more questions: "No problem, boss."

Ren Jiu has already set his sights on monopolizing the liquor business, and these short, inexperienced people in the underworld have no idea how much money they can make selling liquor.

How can you make money just by fighting and killing?

A short mule who doesn't use his brain will remain a short mule his whole life!

Any business that achieves a monopoly is bound to make money, and a lot of money at that.

Time flies, and by afternoon...

Inside the office, a middle-aged man with a receding hairline and a plump figure, dressed in a beige suit, sat in front of Ren Jiu. It was Lao Liu.

When Lao Liu saw Ren Jiu, he respectfully greeted him as "Master Jiu".

After all, Ren Jiu is now a big shot in the underworld, and he's not someone that can afford to mess with.

Ren Jiu, flanked by Lao Shuming and Xiao Mei, lit a cigar and got straight to the point:

"Old Liu, I want to buy your brewery. Name your price."

Upon hearing this, Old Liu's face lit up with joy: "Ninth Master, 500 million, including the people, the factory, and the equipment, I'll sell it all to you, Ninth Master."

Ren Jiu raised an eyebrow. A brewery on the verge of bankruptcy was going to sell to him for 500 million? They really didn't care about money. He glanced at Lao Shuming and gave him a look.

Lao Shuming, of course, understood Ren Jiu's meaning, and his face instantly darkened:

"Old Liu, our boss is sincerely looking to take over. Give us an honest price, or you'll regret it."

As soon as Lao Shuming finished speaking, Old Liu broke out in a cold sweat:

"3 million, that's fine."

Old Liu, fearing that Ren Jiu would continue to drive down the price, said with a wronged expression:

"Brother Mouse, after all, my brewery still owes a lot of debt, and I definitely have to pay it off. Besides, there are several new production lines in the brewery, which are worth quite a bit of money."

Ren Jiu didn't make things difficult for Lao Liu any further: "Here's what we'll do, I'll give you 350 million, and you can work for me for the extra 50 to help me run the brewery and produce beer."

After all, Lao Liu was originally from the brewery and was very familiar with the brewery's production process.

Ren Jiu suddenly took over the brewery and had no one he could use, so he just happened to have Lao Liu.

As for Lao Liu not working properly for him, Ren Jiu is a man of the underworld; sometimes you don't need to be reasonable when it comes to doing things! Unless Lao Liu is tired of living and wants to ascend to heaven!

Upon hearing this, Old Liu, realizing that working under Ren Jiu was a good option, quickly agreed.

"No problem, Ninth Master."

The price was agreed upon directly between the two parties. Ren Jiu instructed Lao Shuming:

"Mouse Ming, go and draft the contract now."

Mouse nodded: "Yes, boss."

Five minutes later, the contract was completed, and both parties signed the transfer agreement for the brewery. After the contract was signed, the brewery officially came under Ren Jiu's ownership.

Ren Jiu has become the boss here, and Lao Liu complimented him:
