Urban God-level Youth

Chapter 44: Chapter 46: Envied by Others



Qin Hao looked at them and asked, "Why did you guys beat up my staff?"

The men looked at each other cluelessly, not knowing what to say.

"Slap slap slap"

Li Bao's underlings slapped those men a few times and said, "Damn it, did you not hear Hao asking you a question?"

"Are you going to talk or not? My brothers here are not as lenient as I am," Qin Hao said, looking at one of them.

Under the pressure of Li Bao and the others' imposing manner, the man hurriedly said, "Big brother, this really has nothing to do with me. I was just called over by my cousin. He said your roasted duck is so delicious that it's stealing his business, so he asked me to come help teach your staff a lesson."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd immediately started chattering. These guys were actually jealous of someone else's business success. What kind of character do they have, to be this lousy?

"Brothers, trying to do good business by suppressing others is useless. The only way to succeed is to improve the taste of your own roasted duck.

Today you hit my staff, and I hit you too, so let's call it even. If you have any problems in the future, you can come and challenge me directly but don't touch my people, or else don't blame me for being ruthless," Qin Hao told them.

The men, upon hearing that he would not pursue the matter, quickly nodded in agreement and simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Bao looked at those men and said, "Hao has let you off, but that doesn't mean I have. Starting today, if I see your stalls on Yonghe Street again, don't blame me for sending my boys to take care of you."

The men's faces changed instantly upon hearing his words, but they could see that Li Bao and his men were not to be trifled with and didn't dare to say anything.

Moreover, the events of today at this place would likely spread quickly, and their business would probably suffer as a result.

The reason why Qin Hao didn't act too harshly was because of his different status. He now considered himself an entrepreneur who started from scratch.

On the other hand, a lot of people were gathered around, and if he was too harsh, it would not only affect his reputation but also the reputation of his roasted duck restaurant.

If he became more prominent one day, this could become a stain on his record.

He was quite satisfied with Li Bao's handling of the situation, as it coincided with his own thoughts, it's just that his status prevented him from saying it outright.

Qin Hao got into the car with his people, and Liu Pengyun rode the tricycle back.

Looking at Yu Chengcai, he said, "Maybe you should go to the hospital to check up, just to avoid any issues."

Yu Chengcai hastily replied, "Boss, I'm fine. It's just a broken nose, nothing serious."

"Let's head back first," Qin Hao said as he drove the car back to the roasted duck restaurant with him.

Upon returning to the store, it wasn't long before Liu Pengyun also arrived. Yu Chengcai quickly said, "Sister, let's settle the accounts first."

Yu Jie was about to scold him, but after hearing his words, she didn't say anything and set about settling the accounts with him.

After the accounting was done, Qin Hao took out a thousand yuan from Yu Jie and gave it to Yu Chengcai, "Take this money to get checked out, and then buy yourself some nutritional supplements. If it's not enough, just let your sister know."

"No, no, boss, that's too much. There's no need for so much," Yu Chengcai hurriedly waved his hands, not daring to accept it.

A thousand yuan was a lot to him; his monthly salary was only three thousand.

Qin Hao giving him a thousand all at once made him feel undeserving.

"Take it, it's what you deserve," Qin Hao firmly pressed the money into his hand.

The other employees looked at him with a hint of envy. Getting beaten up turned into receiving over a thousand yuan.

They almost wished to get beaten up too.

...

At noon, the meal that Yu Jie had ordered was delivered to the roasted duck restaurant, and Qin Hao specifically prepared several roasted ducks to reward his workers.

Ordinarily, these people couldn't afford roasted duck; one duck cost seventy to eighty yuan, and three would total over two hundred.

When Pudgy was around, he always ordered takeout for these people, and the portions were generous enough to ensure everyone was well fed.

After lunch, Qin Hao discussed future development paths with the fatty upstairs in the afternoon.

Qin Hao had discovered that retailing roasted duck could also be quite profitable, and if Jiangshan Roasted Duck's tricycles could cover the whole Jiangshan City, the revenue was likely to be terrifying.

Of course, the labor costs would be terrifying as well, as there were already ten tricycles on Yonghe Street alone.

There were many bustling streets like Changle District, and the whole district might need over fifty tricycles.

Qin Hao also had a great idea for the next step, not planning to increase the number of tricycles but to open a shop in the bustling area of Yonghe Street.

Then, the tricycles on Yonghe Street could be withdrawn, and sent to invade other bustling streets.

Kang Youyi found his idea very unique and nodded, "This method is feasible. After the roast duck shop stabilizes for a while, it may just be enough for the down payment of a shop in a busy area."

The two talked it over all afternoon, and Qin Hao left for home just after five o'clock.

Not long after he got home, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin came back, each carrying a Jiangshan Roasted Duck.

Qin Hao, "Dad, Mom, why did you buy roasted duck again?"

"This Jiangshan Roasted Duck is indeed good. After eating it for a few days, I feel invigorated, and even my work has more energy than before. It's said that Jiangshan Roasted Duck is roasted with eighty-one kinds of herbal ingredients," Mr. Qin said with a smile.

Qin Hao was startled, good grief, Dad even knows that?

It seemed the advertisements on the tricycles were quite effective.

Over the next two days, Qin Hao would visit the roast duck shop during the day and return home after five in the afternoon.

These two days' revenue had broken twenty-thousand, with a net profit of more than ten-thousand each day.

On the fourth day, which was the third day after the standardized test ended.

Qin Hao left the house just after seven in the morning heading towards school, and at the entrance of the community, he ran into Xia Qing.

Xia Qing stood there in a pink dress, her fair skin and her slender figure accentuated, with her long hair flowing gently in the breeze.

Qin Hao, who was not far away, was struck dumb; he found Xia Qing extraordinarily beautiful today.

He quickly recovered, and remembered the gift he gave Xia Qing, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Xia Qing saw him and turned her head, a smile on her lips, her dimples showing immediately, "Qin Hao."

Qin Hao smiled awkwardly and walked over. As he got closer, he noticed that today Xia Qing had a light makeup on, which doubled her charm.

"What are you staring at? Haven't you seen me before?" Xia Qing said softly with slightly flushed cheeks as she saw his stunned look.

"No, just noticed you look especially beautiful today." Qin Hao hurriedly walked a couple of steps past Xia Qing,

So she wouldn't see the color of his embarrassment.

Xia Qing caught up to him quickly, and she didn't bring up the topic of their grades because she feared it might touch upon Qin Hao's sore spot.

This was a gentle and kind girl, understanding and considerate of others.

Qin Hao could feel it too. He had planned to ask Xia Qing about her grades.

But seeing she didn't bring it up, he knew what she was thinking and decided not to mention their grades either.

Chatting as they walked, they quickly arrived at the school.

Upon reaching the class, there were already students there, most sitting together chatting away.

Others were discussing the exam questions, debating the solutions and answers.
