Chapter 231 Collecting Protection Fees
Chapter 231 Collecting protection fees
Besides, in these three days, I made more money than the three of them usually earned in a year, and I became more determined to be with Ye Chen.
On the fourth day, the freshman competition at Longyang Academy was also over, and the top ten were decided. As for who was the top ten, Ye Chen and others didn’t care at all. They sold elixirs during the day and practiced at night. Anyway, Ye Long and others did not lack elixirs at all, so their cultivation was also steadily improving.
On the fourth day, the turnover also soared to 300,000 taels. The store entrance was crowded, and some came to get free elixirs and some came to buy elixirs.
Some people wanted to get free pills for the second time, but they were recognized by Ye Chen and others and refused directly.
As the cultivation level improves, the memory of practitioners will also become stronger. It is simpler to remember the appearance of some people.
Seeing Danjutang getting on track, Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction, and now he finally has a stable income.
During this period, Ye Chen also purchased a batch of spiritual medicines from Wanbao Trading Company. Because the number of spiritual medicines in the fairy field is limited, if the elixirs are sold well at that time, Ye Chen is worried that it will not be enough to sell them, so he first refines more elixirs in stock.
Anyway, the profit of elixirs is very high, so buying some elixirs is nothing. Moreover, it takes time to refine elixirs by automatic alchemy furnaces. You can only make more money by refining them early and having stock.
On the fifth day, the turnover reached an astonishing 400,000 taels. With so much income, Ye Chen was happy, and his labor money such as Ye Shuang'er also increased.
Now Ye Chen directly asked Ye Shuang'er to put it in the storage bag.
At night, you can directly count how many pills you sold to know the turnover. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome to move the silver around. Ye Chen directly purchased a large-capacity storage bag from the mall system for Ye Shuang'er.
The reputation of Danjutang has also come. Many students from Longyang Academy have also come to buy elixirs, and some customers who have tasted the benefits will also buy them again.
"Now that the elixir shop is on track, I can go out to hunt monsters." Ye Chen thought to himself.
In the past few days, Ye Chen has made a lot of money and has a source of income. Then Ye Chen is thinking about upgrading. Although he is at the ninth level of the warrior realm, his realm is too low after all.
Now the little wolf has successfully entered the fourth level, which is good news. After the little wolf enters the fourth level, its strength is equivalent to that of the Wuzong realm. Moreover, the green wind wolf is a wind-attribute monster. After entering the fourth level, it can use long-range attack methods, which is the Feng Dao.
Condensing true energy into a wind knife can conduct long-range attacks on the target.
"Get out." Suddenly, a group of people in black pushed away the guests who were queuing up to buy pills.
"Who dares to push me?" The guest who was pushed away was furious and turned around to look. He saw a group of people in black. Seeing the signs on these people, his expression changed. He swallowed up the words he wanted to curse and could no longer scold him.
This is the member of the Giant Snake Gang, an underground force in Longyang City. Its strength is no weaker than the three major families, and its behavior is more ruthless and domineering. If the three major families have nothing to do, they will not want to provoke the Giant Snake Gang.
Of course, the Giant Snake Gang will not cause trouble for the three major families for no reason, because the three major families are not so easy to mess with.
Usually, the Giant Snake Gang bullies other weaker forces, for example, if you open a store, you have to pay them protection fees.
If you don’t hand in, the store will not be able to open. There are people blocking the door every day, but you won’t let customers enter the store.
Moreover, no one dared to attack the people of the Giant Snake Gang, because once they took action, the Giant Snake Gang's revenge was very cruel and had to pay a huge price to calm the anger of the Giant Snake Gang. Maybe they were assassinated directly by the Giant Snake Gang and disappeared without realizing it.
This kind of thing has happened. Many people who have conflicts with the Giant Snake Gang disappeared without understanding.
Many people know that it must be related to the Giant Snake Gang, but without sufficient evidence, they cannot do anything to the Giant Snake Gang.
Moreover, the Giant Snake Gang is very clean and neat in doing things. Under normal circumstances, it will not give others a handle, even if someone suspects that they did it.
If the fight is discovered by the soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion, they will still pay a fine, and the City Lord's Mansion will not be too embarrassed.
The Giant Snake Gang has been in Longyang City for many years. It can be said that it is a cancer, but the City Lord's Mansion did not move the Giant Snake Gang.
However, the Giant Snake Gang generally abides by the rules. As long as you pay the protection fee, you will not cause trouble again, which is equivalent to spending money to block disasters.
If you refuse to give money to the giant snake, you will be targeted.
"Do you have any objections?" The man led by the Giant Snake Gang said coldly.
"No, no, I'll leave immediately." The man who was originally pushed said with a panic look on his face, and immediately ran aside to make way for the group of people.
There were five people in this group of people wearing the clothes of the Giant Snake Gang, with a big snake on it, which was the symbol of the Giant Snake Gang.
The person in charge is the fourth level of the Martial Arts, and the other four are in the Martial Arts.
Although their cultivation level is not high, they are from the Giant Snake Gang, and no one dares to offend them.
When Ye Chen saw this scene, he frowned and said, "The person who came was not kind."
Ye Shuang'er, Ye Long, Ye Shan, Ye Lang and others also looked at the group of people with a look of vigilance.
This group of people actually drove the guests aside and affected their business.
"The business here is good. You must know the rules when doing business in Longyang City. We are from the Giant Snake Gang. Your store will give us the Giant Snake Gang 100,000 taels every month to ensure that your business can continue." The person led by the Giant Snake Gang said.
The person in charge is Du Sheng, who is a small leader in the Giant Snake Gang. Danjutang has been open for several days. They have secretly observed and found that Danjutang's business is getting better and better day by day, with a daily turnover of at least 200,000 taels. Such a hot business made them jealous.
Their protection fees are also determined by the store's business. If the business is good, you will receive more. If the business is bad, you will receive less.
"Sorry, we have paid the rent to the City Lord's Mansion. I don't know what the Giant Snake Gang's protection fee is. There is no 100,000 taels you want here. Please leave and don't interfere with our business." Ye Chen said lightly.
The other party was so angry that the city lord's mansion only charged 20,000 taels of rent per month, but the Giant Snake Gang actually collected 100,000 taels of rent per month, which was quite a tone.
The protection fee is several times more expensive than the rent.
Of course, the 100,000 taels are just because Danjutang has a good business, so it takes so much. If the business is half dead, it may only charge a few hundred taels per month.
"Boy, go out and ask about our Giant Snake Gang. If you dare to refuse us, you will not end up in the end. If you refuse to give protection fees, then this store will not be opened." Du Sheng sneered.
"If you dare to stop us from opening a store, you won't end well, no matter who it is." Ye Chen said coldly.
"Okay, I'm tough, but I just don't know if you can keep being tough." Du Sheng narrowed his eyes.
The other party didn't give face to the Giant Snake Gang? Then don't blame them for being rude.
"Turn away the guests and we will guard the door of the store." Du Sheng immediately ordered.
"Get out of here, the Giant Snake Gang is here, and you are not allowed to buy elixirs here." After hearing Du Sheng's order, his subordinates drove the guests around him away from here.
