Chapter 696: Six hundred and ninety-one, your energy is beyond your imagination

Old Yuan could not forget such a huge favor; on the first day the bar opened, Old Yuan also came by and spent tens of thousands in support.

"Actually, it’s not such a big deal, just some people wanting to cause trouble, specifically those three nightclubs."

When he heard it was those few nightclubs, Old Yuan’s expression became somewhat grave.

"I didn’t expect these three to dare cause trouble at this time."

"These three have built up quite a lot of power over so many years locally, which is why they’re so rampant."

Despite Old Yuan not having been here for a long time, he had already thoroughly familiarized himself with all the local situations before coming here. He was clear about who was who.

"Yeah, it’s quite troublesome, I am also thinking about how to deal with them now."

After Gu Chen said this, Old Yuan went straight to him and said,

"I know some friends in Guicheng, it’s a bit far, but I don’t know if they can help. I’ll go and ask for you, I think they should be able to."

After he finished speaking to Gu Chen, Gu Chen didn’t hesitate and immediately shook his head.

"There’s no need, it’s too much trouble. I think these matters may ultimately rely on myself. It won’t work if I don’t have anyone I can use."

After hearing what Gu Chen said, Old Yuan instantly understood what he meant.

"Don’t talk like that, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses."

"In this day and age, businessmen as clean as you are rare. Nearly every businessman has their hands in something shady.

But for someone like you, who is purely in business, to the common people, you’re nothing short of a blessing."

Old Yuan didn’t think that Gu Chen having no one to use was anything shameful.

On the contrary, he felt that Gu Chen was different from others. With Gu Chen’s character and capacity, it was simply a fortune for the residents.

Because Gu Chen didn’t engage in messy dealings and had no association with troublesome people.

That also meant Gu Chen wouldn’t go around causing trouble or adding to the common people’s burdens, which was truly precious.

He said this very seriously to Gu Chen, his face seemingly truly believing that Gu Chen was a very accomplished businessman.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen just smiled.

In fact, he didn’t take his words very seriously, considering it just a consolation, which was good enough.

Because, at least in Gu Chen’s view, just having this sense of achievement was not very useful.

His achievements would not come to his aid when he encountered these troubles.

In the end, he had to rely on himself to start over little by little.

"You don’t have to take this matter too much to heart, I believe everyone will help you.

Although these three nightclubs are stubborn, they are not indestructible.

The trouble they’ve caused this time is not small, I believe their end is near."

After saying this, Gu Chen looked somewhat puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

What did he mean by saying these people were nearing their end? From the current situation, it seemed like it was himself heading towards an end.

"Brother, you might not even realize it yourself, but you have no idea how much power you now hold in your hands," Old Yuan suddenly said to Gu Chen out of the blue.

The statement caught Gu Chen off guard; he didn’t even understand what Old Yuan meant by it.

What did he mean by "the power in my hands"? Where did I get any power from?

"Have you ever counted for yourself? Do you realize whom you’ve met by now?

The people you know now are all significant figures locally.

Some might even say countless people are dying to establish connections with them, yet they all share a very deep bond with you.

Take Wei Tianfu for example. Do you know how much effort he can save you? Don’t forget, brother, you just started making your way in society not long ago, and you already have such influence.

With your capabilities, if those three nightclubs cross you, wouldn’t they be digging their own graves?"

At that moment, he spoke each word to Gu Chen with great sincerity, like an elder earnestly advising a younger one.

Previously, Gu Chen truly hadn’t thought much of it, but now that Old Yuan mentioned it, he suddenly felt there might be some truth in his words.

"But even so, it doesn’t mean much. These people are causing me trouble now, yet I hardly need to lift a finger."

That’s still what Gu Chen said, and right after he finished, Old Yuan immediately took umbrage.

"Brother, oh brother, what do you know.

The road ahead is long. They’re troubling you now, but you’ll benefit from it later."

Seeing the earnest look on Old Yuan’s face, Gu Chen didn’t know what to say for a moment. He didn’t understand why Old Yuan had so much faith in him, even more than he had in himself.

"Are you so certain that these people will lose in the future?"

Gu Chen asked him that.

Upon hearing the question, Old Yuan’s face showed absolute confidence as he affirmed, "Yes, I’m convinced they will end up utterly defeated. They will suffer consequences beyond their wildest imaginations, all because of their current stupidity.

My intuition is extremely accurate; whatever I predict tends to come true."

With such earnestness, he spoke to Gu Chen, as if they were truly about to face some kind of consequence, taking Gu Chen by surprise.

Gu Chen didn’t know why Old Yuan was so confident, but he didn’t question it further; perhaps the future would unfold as Old Yuan had said.

He looked forward to such a day. If it really came, it would mean he wouldn’t need to worry about these issues any longer.

After a brief chat, Old Yuan left.

Sitting alone in the bar, Gu Chen still contemplated the words Old Yuan had said.

There was no denying that Old Yuan’s words were quite inspiring and had significantly improved his mood.

Of course, Gu Chen did not place all his hopes on this so-called future.

He was aware that changing his situation required his own effort; if he didn’t work hard and relied entirely on others, he would eventually revert to his current state.

After idling for a while, Gu Chen went straight home. Home was indeed the place to rush back to, for no matter how harsh the outside world was, one’s mood would instantly improve upon returning home.

It was also only at home that one could feel that long-missed sense of security, allowing for a peaceful enjoyment of life.

Gu Chen himself didn’t know what had gotten into him.
