Yang Fan did not linger. He still had to comfort Xiao Jiu's family. After calling Ah Feng to bring two brothers to guard the place in the afternoon, he left.
Lu Yao and Yang Hui returned with breakfast. Song Jianhao asked Biao Biao and the others to wait outside. He wanted to talk to Yang Jian alone.
"Little Yang, you should have accepted that fifty thousand."
"Why?"
Yang Jian looked at Song Jianhao doubtfully, not understanding what he meant.
"I had someone inquire this morning. Prince is a very arrogant and overbearing person. It won't be easy for Luo Tong and Yang Fan to deal with him. A major battle will eventually break out between them, and no one can predict the consequences. Even if Yang Fan wins, he might be severely weakened and could also face crackdowns from the police."
"You mean the Hongqi Street Casino won't be able to operate for much longer?"
"Yes, once they start fighting, the Hongqi Street Casino will definitely be shut down. You might as well take the fifty thousand, which is more practical. As for him saying he treats you like a brother, that's just bragging. He might not even be able to protect himself by then."
Gao Daqiang also nodded in agreement, "That's right, Er Jian. You should have taken that fifty thousand just now. You saved his life, and fifty thousand isn't much."
Yang Hui was a bit confused, "Who gave him fifty thousand?"
"It was the person Er Jian saved. He gave a bank card, but Er Jian refused it and instead asked for a twenty percent stake in the casino. I couldn't stop him at the time."
"Second brother, are you out of your mind? Fifty thousand can solve a lot of your problems. Not to mention paying off debts, you could at least buy back the equipment for the template factory, then you could get a loan. Once the loan comes through, the template factory can start production, and you won't have to live this dangerous life."
Yang Hui was a little angry again. She really didn't want her brother to continue working in the casino. This line of work was too dangerous; it almost cost him his life.
Lu Yao stared at him, "You want a stake in the casino? Do you still plan to continue working in the casino?"
Yang Jian was a bit helpless, "Sister, Yao Yao, I've already refused the money. Should I go back and ask for it? As for whether I'll continue in the casino, let's talk about it after I recover. You two wait outside for a bit. I have something to discuss with Brother Hao alone."
Lu Yao glared at him and followed Gao Daqiang and his wife out.
Song Jianhao shook his head, "Little Yang, your sister is right. Fifty thousand can help you get the template factory up and running. It's too bad to lose this opportunity."
"Brother Hao, you're thinking too simply. My grudges with Wu Laizi and Bao Guo haven't been settled. Can I go back and start a factory?"
Song Jianhao was stunned for a moment, "I understand what you mean. What do you plan to do then?"
"There are two things I need your help with. First, as Yang Fan said, spread the news of my injury back to Chengguan, and make it sound serious."
"That's no problem. I'll arrange for them to spread the news back to Chengguan as soon as I get back. Say you were shot in the head, and even if you survive, you might be in a vegetative state."
"The second thing is, I want to personally host a bank at the Hongqi Street Casino. I hope you don't have any objections. I urgently need to earn money and must save enough funds to resolve the issues with Wu Laizi and the others first. Otherwise, I can't even go home."
Song Jianhao nodded without hesitation, "That's a good thing. Why would I have any objections? You hosting a bank yourself doesn't affect the company's interests. How about this, you don't need to find anyone else to work for you. Just let Biao Biao and the others host the bank for you, and pay them some wages."
"Thank you for your understanding, Brother Hao."
"It's nothing. I'll let Biao Biao and the others come in. You can explain it clearly to them."
Song Jianhao said and went out.
Biao Biao, Liang Liang, and San Pang came in.
"Biao Biao, I've already agreed with Brother Hao to host a bank at the Hongqi Street Casino. You go to the casino this afternoon and deal with it directly. I'll give Brother Fan a heads-up later. It starts today."
As Yang Jian spoke, he handed his bank card to Biao Biao, telling him to withdraw the money himself. One needs fifty thousand yuan to enter the casino.
"That's great, Brother Jian. Will the shares be as we discussed yesterday?"
"Yes, each of you three will get a ten percent stake. If Brother Song has money to invest, give him ten percent as well. No one else gets anything. Also, Liang Liang will be responsible for settling with the casino every day. You two will manage the accounts and the money."
"Okay, Brother Jian. You focus on recovering. We'll handle the casino matters."
"Alright, you guys can go back. I'm a bit tired and want to sleep."
After Biao Biao and the others left, Yang Jian sent a message to Yang Fan and then fell asleep, not even having breakfast.
When he woke up again, it was already three in the afternoon.
Ah Feng, along with two fellow disciples, had arrived. They were assigned by Yang Fan to specifically protect Yang Jian.
Because Gao Daqiang and the others were there, Ah Feng and the other two did not enter the ward. After greeting Yang Jian, they waited on the bench in the corridor outside the room.
Lu Yao bought chicken soup from a restaurant outside and brought it in a thermos. As soon as Yang Jian woke up, he ate a bowl, and his spirits improved considerably.
"Sister, you should all go back. The two children are at home and you're worried. Ah Feng and the others can take care of me here."
After drinking the chicken soup, Yang Jian asked Gao Daqiang to help him to the restroom, and then urged them to leave.
"It's okay, Lulu is with Grandpa. They're on holiday these days, so there's no need to pick them up. We can take care of you here for a few days."
"Sister Hui, you should go back. I'm on holiday these days. I'll take care of Brother Jian."
Lu Yao had no intention of going back.
Yang Jian was eager for her to stay. He wanted to take this opportunity to cultivate their relationship and solidify their relationship naturally. So, he winked at his sister, "Sister, let Yao Yao stay. You guys go back."
Yang Hui immediately understood his intention, "Alright then, we'll come see you again in a few days. Should we leave the car for you?"
"No, you drive it back. I won't be discharged from the hospital during this time. Sister, go to Mom and Dad's place after you get back and briefly explain my situation, so they don't worry when the news of my serious injury spreads to Xinhe."
"Okay, we'll head back to Yang Li Village now."
"Also, if anyone from Chengguan asks you about my injuries, tell them it's very serious, and I might become a vegetative state."
"Why?"
"Don't ask, just do as I say."
"Okay, we'll leave now. Yao Yao, it will be hard work for you here."
After Yang Hui finished speaking, she left with Gao Daqiang. Lu Yao escorted them to the elevator before returning.
"Brother Jian, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll go buy it for you?"
Lu Yao had a cheerful personality. Staying here was equivalent to admitting she was Yang Jian's girlfriend.
"I want to eat you. Are you willing?"
"Come on, can you even eat me? You can't even walk properly, and you still have the energy for flirtatious thoughts. It serves you right that you can only sleep on your back. It would be great if you were bedridden for life."
"If I'm bedridden for life, wouldn't you have to be a widow?"
"Don't flatter yourself. I'm not yours, so why would I be a widow? The people chasing me would stretch from here to Xinhe. You might end up single, but how could I be a widow?"
The sound of their bickering reached outside the door. Ah Feng found it amusing and could only get up to close the door.
