Although Li Er wanted to build cement roads in Chang 'an City in a short time, Li Chen had to see the money first before giving the cement, so Li Er's plan had to be shelved.
At present, the construction team that Li Chen's family had just formed could be dragged out to do the project. Ignoring him, we should first build the restaurant. If the royal family's craftsmen want to learn, then come. I don't mind.
The construction team directly entered the land they had bought, demolished the houses inside, and began the road of reconstruction.
The project began. Cheng Chumo and the others calculated the time but found that they were not happy because the funds needed to build the house were too large and the time period was too long.
They couldn't wait for the hotel to be put into use immediately and start operating to earn money.
"Actually, it's not that long. It'll take about a month.”
Compared to them, Li Chen was not in a hurry at all. Opening a restaurant and a barbecue shop was just to earn some extra money for him. His main source of income was still relying on reselling the goods in the supermarket every day. This was violence!! Opening a restaurant or a barbeque shop was too weak.
Now, Li Chen was not even sure how much money he had. He only knew that the mountain of copper coins at the entrance of the supermarket was dazzling every time he saw it.
"That's not right." Qin Huaiyu took the simple blueprint that he had asked the craftsman to make and stared at it for a long time. His face was filled with worry." At this speed, it's impossible for it to take less than three months. It's even more troublesome than building a villa.”
When they heard that it would take three months to build a restaurant, the others were instantly stunned. Li Chen took the blueprint and glanced at it angrily before throwing it aside." This damn thing can be called a blueprint? If you build it according to this, when will you be able to open it? I'm afraid that the initial investment will be enough for you to enjoy.”
"Look at this!"
Li Chen took out the blueprints that he had designed the entire night and placed them on the table. Qin Huaiyu and the others immediately surrounded him to investigate.
"See? There's no need to directly build two or even three floors!! It's not worth it to spend too much." Li Chen pointed at the blueprint and said bluntly,""Just take a look and you'll know. This restaurant isn't built for you to live in. Why do you have to make it so good? You can just demolish the old wooden houses and then lay down a bit of foundation to start the construction. All you need is cement, sand, and bricks. The initial investment will be on me, and the later part will be deducted from the profits.”
It was just a run-down restaurant, and they still had to follow the rules of building a villa? Who knew how long it would take to recoup the cost and make a profit? It was not worth it.
"But can it be stabilized like this?"
Cheng Chumo put forward his own point of view. Li Chen had put a lot of iron rods in the villa. If there were no such things, the cost would definitely be reduced. However, the safety of the house...
"Idiot!" Li Chen pushed Cheng Chumo's head away in a bad mood. He even suspected that this guy had eaten too many brains. His head was so big, but his intelligence was infinitely reduced.
Pointing at the blueprint, Li Chen looked at them with a serious expression." This thing is mine, so I know how to build it the best. Just listen to my instructions. There's no need for iron rods. Just use stones to build the foundation. Then, when the walls are finished, lay a layer of wood and pour cement over it. The second layer will be replaced with wood. This is the simplest method and also the most economical. Have you not calculated that if you build according to the rules of the villa, just the purchase of iron materials will make you bankrupt?”
You want to play high rules with a little money in your pocket? Why didn't you ask for a five-star hotel with dozens of floors? Wasn't this f * cking f * cking ridiculous?
"Alright! We'll follow Big Brother's words. We'll listen to his commands! Anyway, it was for the sake of making money. Why did he invest so much?”Fang Yi 'ai was worried that the others would not agree, so she decided to follow her big brother's orders.
Gradually, Li Chen became the leader of the small group, and the others became followers.
Since things had come to this, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu could only nod and admit it. As for Cheng Chumo, he basically had no right to speak and could only follow them.
"By the way, do you know how to recruit some retired veterans?”
The matter of the restaurant was settled. Li Chen needed to recruit some veterans to guard the courtyard. He could only find Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu to think of a way. The number was not too much, and they could not enter the inner courtyard. They could directly guard the outer courtyard.
Although the money was hidden in the supermarket, it was more or less reassuring to have someone guarding it, in case some blind things really ran in.
Qin Huaiyu glanced at Cheng Chumo and asked,"Big brother, are you hiring people to guard the courtyard?”
Without waiting for Li Chen's reply, Cheng Chumo waved his hand casually." Why recruit veterans? They're all old foxes. These people are the hardest to manage. It's not worth it. Big brother, I'll settle it for you. Aren't they just servants?" Get a group of slaves over and I guarantee that not even a bird will dare to fly into your courtyard.”
So awesome! Li Chen didn't expect that a servant would be more ferocious than a veteran.
Qin Huaiyu smiled as he took a sip of tea and explained,""That's what his family does. Don't look down on those servants. They're afraid of being punished by their masters, so they're very ruthless. They're the best at guarding the house, and it's even better to train them a little.”
Am I out of touch with society or what? Slaves are actually more awesome than veterans!! But thinking about it, it made sense. In this era, as long as a veteran didn't die a few times, he would be an officer. After a while, he would either be disabled or retired and become a wily old fox. It was indeed not safe to use such people to guard the courtyard. It was better to use a group of slaves.
"That's good. Give me some. Just look for me after you calculate the money.”
"What's there to talk about money between brothers? Are they just slaves? I'll just get someone to send it over when I go back. Don't worry, I guarantee that I'll pick a strong and obedient one.”
"Yes."
Since Cheng Chumo didn't care about the slave money, Li Chen didn't bother and just gave everything to him.
