Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Transforming to Become the Boss

The wooden tea house was divided into two floors, with the first floor serving as a tea tasting area, divided into open tables and private rooms, covering about 200 square meters.

The second floor was the accommodation area and also served as the owner’s private reception room, whereas the other side had two bedrooms, relatively well-arranged.

"Are you sure you want to transfer it for 300,000?"

After taking a tour, Lin Fan looked at the owner in surprise,

Given the decor style, the complete range of tea bowls, cups, and tea products, the place was ready to start business immediately. Just the renovation alone must have cost a lot; this price might not even cover half of it.

"Are you sure you want to sublease?"

The male owner, who was over fifty, sighed, "Honestly, I spent a hundred thousand just on the renovation, but now I have no choice. People block the door and don’t let me open; otherwise, I’d have to pay them every month with no cap. So, I definitely cannot continue this business. 300,000 yuan is just cutting my losses. But I have to say this upfront, after the sublease, I won’t be responsible for anything that happens."

"Who comes to collect the money?"

Lin Fan rubbed his chin curiously as he looked at the male owner.

"Who else but Huo Ben’s minion, Black King Kong, nicknamed Heizi? This guy is a rascal. Every place here, whether it’s a breakfast shop selling tea eggs or a chain store, has to pay him monthly. If anyone dares not to pay, the next day their shop gets smashed. I was prepared to just pay twenty thousand a month to deal with it, but he asked for an uncapped amount. How could I continue under those circumstances?"

Talking about this, the male owner was filled with regret, having worked hard for three months only to come up empty-handed.

"What era are we in that you don’t try to negotiate?"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes. It wasn’t the nineties anymore; how could people still be collecting protection money?

"Where would we go to complain? These thugs are regulars at the local police station; going in and out for them is like returning home. If you send him inside, he would definitely seek revenge once he got out. We are businessmen, how can we afford to keep up with these people?"

The owner was truly filled with unresolved grievances.

"Heizi, interesting."

Lin Fan smiled as he sat down, rubbing his nose. It seemed that even trivial matters in Red Flag County could somehow be linked to the Zhao Family.

"Lin Fan!"

Tang Dashuang, who had been standing behind him, couldn’t help but speak up, "If you take over this shop and they dare come to cause trouble, we sisters will beat them down for sure."

"Heroine, these things can’t just be solved by fighting."

Lin Fan shook his head; getting physical with these lowlife thugs was a bit of an overkill.

"So, you’re not renting?"

Tang Xiaoshuang was kneading her clothing nervously while looking at Lin Fan.

"Of course I am renting. But I need to make something clear first. I know both of you can fight and beat people, but if you are going to work for me, you need to follow my orders. If I say no hitting, you absolutely do not hit. Did you hear that?"

Lin Fan looked sternly at the sisters. Given what happened last night, he believed that if the sisters were pushed to the brink, someone would definitely end up dead. He did not want to become a murderer’s boss as soon as he arrived in Red Flag County.

"Don’t worry, Lin Fan. From now on, whatever you ask us to do, we will do. We will listen to you in everything."

Tang Dashuang quickly declared her stance, and Tang Xiaoshuang nodded repeatedly. With the assurances from the two sisters, Lin Fan let out a slight smile: "Okay then, it’s settled. Let’s sign the contract. This shop is mine now!"

Fetching 300,000 yuan in cash from the car, he directly handed it to the owner. With the contract signed, the shop now belonged to Lin Fan.

"Owner, I wish you wealth and safety. But you really must be careful about Heizi; that guy is no good."

The male owner, holding the money and looking grateful, nodded before striding out of the shop. Turning around the corner, he arrived at a black sedan: "Master, everything has been done according to the plan."

"You did well."

The elderly man sitting in the car, the same man who appeared last night, waved to send the owner off, then took a deep breath.

"Master, I just can’t understand—how could you be sure that he would definitely rent this tea house according to the plan? If he liked Tang sisters, he could have simply paid to keep them. Why go through the trouble of setting up a shop?"

The young man in the passenger seat couldn’t help but ask curiously.

This shop had been prepared months ago, which meant that everything from Lin Fan’s rise was planned step by step.

"Because he is not just a simple lecher as he appears. This lad is quite clever. If he were that simple, he wouldn’t have needed all this fuss; just spending money on women would have sufficed. Only a man with ambition would dive headfirst into Red Flag County. I can see that he enjoys this challenge. He truly has my blood, much like his father back in the day."

The elderly man smiled contentedly.

"Master, what would you do if the young master didn’t act as expected?"

The question from the young man suddenly made the elderly man’s eyes turn cold.

"If he doesn’t, it would prove he isn’t the right person and doesn’t deserve to be my grandson. Then, I would consider that I do not have that bloodline at all."
