Qian Ruoyu knew clearly in her heart that Jin Lianhua was not being polite and she was not joking with her.

How could Jin Lianhua want to be polite? She is a very straightforward person and will say whatever she wants to say directly.

Just like she accepted the things I gave her without saying a word, let alone any rejection.

But it was precisely because of this that Qian Ruoyu admired Jin Lianhua even more, and felt that Jin Lianhua was a more well-behaved person and more trustworthy.

Qian Ruoyu just nodded slightly. She naturally had no intention of taking back what she had said.

This place can indeed generate huge profits in a year, but Qian Ruoyu doesn't care about these profits. He just wants to give them all to Jin Lianhua.

Because the golden lotus has given me so much help.

If it weren't for the Golden Lotus, perhaps her life would have been lost long ago. Moreover, with the Golden Lotus by her side to protect her in the future, Qian Ruoyu no longer had any worries in her heart. She only felt that the Golden Lotus was a great bargain for her.

Shortly after this, Hua Laoliu came directly in front of Qian Ruoyu and lowered his head to speak to Qian Ruoyu.

"Boss, I have collected all the information. There are 26 people who want to open a store. There are differences among them. Ten of them have the same idea, so they can join together to open a store."

"In addition, the amount of money needed to open a shop is probably more than five hundred taels of silver..."

After saying this, Hua Laoliu raised his head slightly and glanced at Qian Ruoyu in front of him.

After all, he was worried that the amount of silver he mentioned was too much. Even Hua Laoliu himself had never given so much silver to his subordinates.

In his opinion, giving so much money to his subordinates was just a waste. He never intended to make any of his subordinates rich. But Qian Ruoyu was completely different.

But after hearing this amount, Qian Ruoyu smiled lightly. He didn't expect that the startup fund these people needed was just such a small amount. Qian Ruoyu just waved his hand.

"Here is a total of one thousand taels of silver."

"Five hundred taels of silver are theirs, and the other five hundred taels of silver are yours."

Hearing this, Hua Laoliu was even more surprised. He couldn't believe that half of it actually belonged to him. But before he could ask in confusion, Qian Ruoyu spoke.

"You don't have to think about it, and you don't have to doubt it. These five hundred taels belong to you."

"I did take some money from you before, but it was ill-gotten gains, earned by you through illegal means, so those are confiscated from you, but these five hundred taels of silver are for your own use!"

"It's really hard to do things without money, so I plan to give you this money. If you need it in the future, maybe I will add some to your project. But don't worry, as long as you are willing to work hard by my side, I will never treat you unfairly!"

After hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, he instantly understood and immediately bowed his head to Qian Ruoyu to show his respect to her.

"From today on, this place will be called the Lotus Chamber of Commerce, and this courtyard will be the headquarters of the Lotus Chamber of Commerce. In addition to the alley in front, there will be other places for commercial use in the future. The real owner of this place in the future will be the Golden Lotus, and it has nothing to do with me!"

Hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Hua Laoliu understood completely in his heart that it seemed that following Qian Ruoyu could indeed bring him a lot of benefits, especially the golden lotus beside Qian Ruoyu, who was just a guard.

A guard could actually get a big company like the Lotus Chamber of Commerce. If I help Qian Ruoyu in the future, wouldn't I be able to get more benefits?

Hua Laoliu was happy thinking about this kind of profitable thing, so he nodded immediately and expressed his loyalty.

"Please rest assured! I will definitely stay by your side and do my best. Please tell me anything you want!"

Qian Ruoyu just smiled faintly, and Hua Laoliu had already understood in his heart that the so-called Golden Lotus came to manage this place just to collect money.

The real owner of this place is still Qian Ruoyu, and there has been no change at all.

When Qian Ruoyu saw how smart he was, she immediately smiled and nodded, and asked Hua Laoliu to give all the money to them.

But Hua Laoliu said in a low voice.

"Boss, if you give them all the silver, aren't you worried that they will just run away with the silver? This is a full five hundred taels of silver. If they just run away, it will be a huge loss!"

Hua Laoliu’s worries were not unreasonable, but Qian Ruoyu felt very relieved.

She said calmly.

"Even if they want to take the silver and run away, each person would only be worth a few dozen taels of silver at most. I can afford to give them these few dozen taels of silver. So what's the harm even if they take the silver and run away?"

"Looking at their appearance, a few dozen taels of silver can indeed make them a little bit of money, but the tens of taels of silver they earned actually cost them hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!"

Qian Ruoyu raised her voice slightly so that everyone in the yard could hear her clearly.

"The goal of everyone in our courtyard is to obtain hundreds of thousands of taels, not just these few dozen taels. These are just some small starting capital!"

"Those who want dozens of taels of silver can nod their heads at any time and take the silver on the table. Those who want to make a lot of money had better follow me. You still have time to regret it now, but when you are completely successful in the future, if anyone dares to escape, don't blame me for not blinking an eye!"

After Qian Ruoyu finished speaking, he retracted his gaze, and Hua Laoliu distributed all the silver in front of him.

Hua Laoliu was completely convinced by Qian Ruoyu this time. Only then did he realize that the person who came before him actually possessed such strength and courage. It seemed that there was no doubt that the Lotus Chamber of Commerce would make money in the future.

After thinking about this, Hua Laoliu became more certain in his heart. It seemed that he had to follow Qian Ruoyu well in the future. Apart from Qian Ruoyu, he didn't want to have a second master.

Although Qian Ruoyu didn't know what Hua Laoliu was thinking, he had only one thought in his mind, that is, if Hua Laoliu showed any signs of betraying him, he would kill him immediately!

After all, Hua Laoliu knows a lot of information about me, and I can't let him betray me like this.
