Chapter 672: 667 New Bar Issues

The profits that could be generated were certainly exponential in growth.

One could say that it was all about business inside.

If they hadn’t come to trouble him, Gu Chen actually wanted to take the initiative to bump into them.

After a quick look, Gu Chen had a rough idea in his mind.

He didn’t plan to delve into it any further.

He just slowly returned to his own bar.

Upon arriving at the bar, he saw the floor littered with mess.

Gu Chen knew full well that this was the doing of the customers from last night, and by the time the staff finished their shifts, it was almost dawn, so they obviously lacked the energy to clean up, which is why it’s enough to tidy up before work each day.

Gu Chen went to the bar’s storeroom to check how much liquor was left in stock.

A third of the liquor ordered had already been sold.

Amongst all the drinks, the most sold was not the cheap beer, but rather the somewhat expensive ones in the hundred-yuan range.

He discovered that these hundred-yuan drinks were the best sellers.

It was like a table charge, as almost every table would order a bottle.

Gu Chen also noticed that there weren’t any other serious problems in his bar at the moment.

The only possible issue was that the atmosphere was still not lively enough.

This was a bit different from what Gu Chen had anticipated before.

He believed that the bar’s atmosphere could still rise by at least fifty percent.

That’s how bars are, the more people there are, the hotter it gets, and the more people there are, the more it stimulates consumption. If there were too few people, then the bar would lose its purpose.

By then, customers would be dejected, and who would be in the mood to spend a lot?

And next, there were still too few women in the bar.

In society, the vast majority of women were not so liberal, and when faced with such entertainment venues, they kept their distance.

No one wanted to waste too much time in this bar.

These days, for the majority of people, reputation was far more important than money.

If one were to work in this bar for a while, who knew what the neighbors and relatives would say upon their return.

It was even possible that one’s own family could not accept such a situation.

And even if they weren’t coming here to work, but just for entertainment, they were generally treated with disdain by society.

On this issue, Gu Chen didn’t have much of a solution.

After all, he couldn’t change the status quo; the bar itself was slightly chaotic.

Just as the saying goes, it was a mix of all sorts of people, especially when they drink alcohol, by then, it would truly become a complete mess.

All he could do was to maintain the safety of the bar as much as possible so that every customer could enjoy carefree entertainment.

Since there were too few women, she could only resort to a less desirable strategy.

That was to recruit some girls who had "retired" from the industry.

The so-called "retired" girls were those who had left nightclubs.

These women often had a stronger ability to accept, and cared less about the cold stares from society.

Their work environment was also quite suitable for them.

Of course, when necessary, hiring some men wasn’t unacceptable either; in fact, the male-to-female ratio in the bar was quite unbalanced.

With an overwhelming number of female employees and only a handful of male employees,

the scarcity of male staff implied that many female consumers might not choose this place.

This represented a loss of customer flow for Gu Chen.

Those wealthy women also had strong spending power, not at all inferior to the men.

Moreover, these rich women were often more generous with their money than the male patrons.

But now, with so many issues, no woman is willing to touch this industry, let alone men.

Gu Chen could only temporarily bury this matter in his heart and plan to slowly investigate it later.

Afterward, he returned home.

After returning home, he didn’t do anything else but brewed a pot of herbal medicine.

He planned to take this herbal medicine to the Wei Family to have a look.

He still hadn’t mentioned the matter concerning Old Master Wei to Wei Tianfu.

It was a matter that had to be addressed, as not mentioning it wouldn’t be good for their relationship.

Otherwise, what would Wei Tianfu think of him?

More than two hours later, he took the pot of herbal medicine and went to the Wei Family.

Upon entering the Wei Family’s gate, he saw that all the family members, including the elder from the maternal family, were back.

"Ah, Gu Chen," the elder from the maternal side, was completely different from Old Master Wei. If Old Master Wei was temperamental, then the elder before him was mild-mannered.

So mild-mannered that it seemed as if he wouldn’t get angry no matter what anyone said to him.

"Elder Master Sun, is my brother Tian Fu here?"

Gu Chen asked him curiously.

"Oh, he is in the study, upstairs. You can go and find him yourself. The youngest, if I’m not mistaken, must be dealing with his ailments again," he said to Gu Chen.

After hearing this, Gu Chen placed the herbal medicine on the table and then made his way upstairs to the study.

As he approached the study, he heard Wei Tianfu inside, busy on the phone.

Hearing the sound, Gu Chen stopped at the entrance of the study and didn’t continue inside.

Moving forward, for all he knew, might lead to unexpected issues.

After all, Wei Tianfu’s phone calls were confidential, and who knew what he talked about daily? Although Gu Chen had a good relationship with Wei Tianfu, he was, in the end, a businessman.

Sometimes, not hearing certain phone calls was more convenient than hearing them.

About ten minutes later, the phone call finally ended.

At that time, Gu Chen knocked on the door before entering.

Upon entering, he saw Wei Tianfu wearing an exceptionally clean and neat white shirt.

Seeing him, Gu Chen was clearly taken aback.

This was the first time he saw Wei Tianfu dressed in white.

In past meetings, every time he saw Wei Tianfu, he was always clad in a very proper black suit.

One could make a joke that those unaware might think he was always going to the funeral home for some occasion.

Wei Tianfu, upon seeing Gu Chen come in, also gestured for him to quickly take a seat.

After sitting down, Wei Tianfu asked with genuine concern,

"How is it going? Have you encountered any trouble lately?"

Gu Chen just shook his head upon hearing this.

"No trouble, everything’s pretty good."

Gu Chen did not tell him about the club’s issues.

Firstly, even if he mentioned it, Wei Tianfu definitely wouldn’t be able to solve it.

If it were solvable, it would have been resolved years ago.

Therefore, it was better not to mention it.

That way, it wouldn’t make things awkward for him.
