Mao Xia quickly learned that Zhou Jian'an had been arrested. With Zhou Jian'an arrested, his business came to a standstill. Even if Mao Xia wanted to kidnap him now, it wasn't a good time. She could only discuss it with Greyhound and wait until Zhou Jian'an was released before planning this.
For the rest of the time, Greyhound went to the casino to work every day. In his spare time, he would select suitable candidates, targeting those lecherous and wealthy men, and have Mao Xia seduce them.
If you encounter men who have won money, it's even easier. They have money in their hands; they'd be willing to accept anything, whether it's tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
However, Hong Kong is quite different from the South China Sea Special Economic Zone. Hong Kong has many wealthy people who care about appearances and face. In the South China Sea, Greyhound asks for 100,000, but the bosses can bargain down to 5,000, which makes Greyhound laugh in anger.
This is fucking robbery! It's a honey trap! He was about to chop off the other person's hand, but the other person was calmly haggling, saying that 100,000 was too much and he couldn't afford it. He told Greyhound that if he didn't like it, he could contact his family directly.
"Even if my wife finds out, she won't say anything else. She'll just complain that I spent too much money on 100,000 yuan, thinking that it's not worth spending so much money just to play around with a woman."
That makes sense; many people in mainland China aren't afraid of Greyhound spreading the word.
Greyhound and Mao Xia's honey trap scheme failed to adapt to the mainland environment. After working for more than half a month and setting up 8 scams, they only managed to swindle less than 30,000 yuan, which was really beyond Greyhound's expectations.
Fortunately, money in mainland China is valuable, and since they can spend the money they've swindled in mainland China, this sum should be enough for them to live on for a while.
Zhong Buyi's film shooting progressed very quickly. After the indoor sets and mechanical dinosaurs were built, the actual shooting time was not long at all, and it only took less than five months to complete. The rest was post-production and electronic special effects.
These special effects all require a lot of money to do, so Chu Yu could only keep developing other companies and then reinvest the money she made into the production team of "Jurassic Resurrection".
The filmmaking was entrusted to Zhong Buyi. Even if Chu Yu wanted to join in, she couldn't offer much advice. After all, creation is a very personal matter. Zhong Buyi needed money to support his creative work, and Chu Yu also needed money to support her own investments.
She took some time to visit Shen Jun. Shen Jun had been busy selling chili sauce lately, and was so busy that she was dizzy and disoriented. Chu Yu was worried that Shen Jun's health couldn't handle it, so she wanted to come and see if there was anything she could do to help.
Shen Jun is indeed busy. Her chili sauce business is getting better and better. Not to mention other cities, she has almost monopolized the chili sauce business in Beijing. Anyone who has tried the old lady's chili sauce will come back to buy it again and again. They can't stand any other chili sauce.
The average order value of chili sauce is not very high, and the profit margin is not as high as that of a buffet. However, chili sauce can be sold all over the country and into every household. With a large sales volume, the profit margin of chili sauce is quite good.
Shen Jun can now earn two to three thousand yuan a day, which is quite good for her.
She never expected to be in the chili sauce business. She originally thought she would run a buffet for a few years, and then retire to help Chu Yu take care of her children when the buffet business was no longer booming.
Nowadays, the profit margin of chili sauce is showing signs of surpassing that of buffets, and Shen Jun has started paying more attention to chili sauce.
“We only have one type of chili sauce at home, which is a bit too little. Why don’t we make something else?” Chu Yu suggested.
Shen Jun was also thinking about this. The factory couldn't rely on just this one product; they could try something else.
"I want to make a fermented black bean chili sauce and a pickled cowpea chili sauce?"
"You can also try beef sauce. Many people love beef sauce, but it's a bit pricey."
Shen Jun also felt the price was too high. Beef has never been cheap, and making chili sauce with real beef chunks would increase the cost.
However, Shen Jun felt that they could give it a try. If the beef sauce sold well, they could continue to sell it; if it didn't sell well, they could stop production. After all, the old lady's chili sauce business was just starting out, so trying a little more wasn't a bad thing.
"Okay, Mom will try other varieties later, and please ask Sister-in-law Yu to help with the seasoning."
Sister Yu comes from a rural background, and her ancestors were skilled at making chili sauce. Sister Yu's mother used to often carry her chili sauce and sell it on the street. Sister Yu's mother's chili sauce sold very well and was famous for miles around. Sometimes, even if it rained and she didn't have time to go out and sell it, customers would still come to her door.
Sister-in-law Yu inherited her mother's excellent palate and was born with a knack for seasoning chili sauce. Shen Jun felt it would be more reliable to ask her for help.
Sister-in-law Yu was naturally happy to help. She's been busy moving into her new house recently and plans to move in the day after tomorrow.
"Not going to take a break for a while?" Chu Yu asked.
“No more room. We’re not that particular. Besides, we have a lot of kids, and it’s cramped to sleep in our current house. The new house is spacious, and each child has their own bed and desk. Everyone is comfortable, and we won’t have to fight over a bed anymore. I’m so happy to see that.”
Sister-in-law Yu felt like she had finally made it through.
If it weren't for Chu Yu, she'd still be selling chili sauce on the street.
Sister-in-law Yu felt that everyone's fate was predetermined. She met Chu Yu, who helped her make a lot of money. Chu Yu also gave her a big house, and her life got better and better. She remembered Chu Yu's kindness and was naturally willing to make chili sauce for Shen Jun.
"Chu Yu, to tell you the truth, your aunt can also make a kind of chili sauce! Isn't your godmother going to make fermented black bean chili sauce? My mom told me how to make fermented black bean chili sauce before, but I don't like it myself, so I've never made it. I'll study it later, make the fermented black bean version, and send it to your godmother to try, and see if it's okay."
"Thank you, Sister-in-law Yu. I'm so grateful for your help with my godmother's affairs."
"Why are you being so polite with me? If it weren't for you, how could my sister-in-law's family be living so well? People should have a conscience and remember the help others have given them! This is me repaying your kindness!"
