Chapter 122: Minimum Consumption

  "How can this be?" Wang Xu hastily said, Yao Qingping's conditions were too tempting. The scale of this pharmaceutical factory, after hearing Yun Chong say it, Wang Xu even went online to learn more about it. The fixed assets of this pharmaceutical factory are at least 300 million, not to mention the value of some technical personnel and research institute pharmacists.

  To put it bluntly, Wang Xu truly valued the skilled workers in these pharmaceutical factories, while others, although not insignificant in value, were not very important.

  At this point, Yao Qingping directly allocated 35% of the shares to him in technical entry, which is equivalent to giving away more than 100 million yuan. Of course, these are not the most important things, his formula is absolutely worth this price, without this formula, Yao Qingping's pharmaceutical factory would have been losing money for years. The problem is that Yao Qingping directly took out another 10% of the shares as a diagnosis fee for Jin Ping.

  Ten percent of the shares, conservatively estimated, is also 300 million. This amount is not small compared to what Dong Quan paid. Although he gave Li Ziming acupuncture and calculated it to be over 30 million, the situation is different after all.

  He didn't get along with Li Ziming and his son, but he took action because of Lin Ying's face. After all, it was him who offended Li Ziming and had a conflict with him, so he couldn't let Lin Ying take the blame for him.

  But the Yao family is different, after careful calculation, he still owes Yao Qian a favor, this medical bill was intended to be collected at the actual price, including diagnosis, and collecting tens of thousands of yuan would be excessive.

  What surprised him the most was that Yao Qingping actually allowed him to use funds to buy shares, and explicitly told him to give up control of the company, which was a much bigger deal than the 300 million yuan earlier.

  "Dr. Wang, don't be impatient, let me finish what I have to say." Yao Qingping waved his hand and smiled lightly: "You speak frankly, I won't hide anything either. At present, the fixed assets of the pharmaceutical factory are absolutely worth around 300 million, and the acquisition price will not be less than 400 million. However, at present, the pharmaceutical factory is losing money, with annual losses ranging from 50 million to 100 million."

  Here is the translation:

  "Up to this point, Yao Qingping paused for a moment, glanced at Wang Xu, saw that Wang Xu was listening attentively, and continued: 'After you invest, I won't put any more money into the pharmaceutical factory. The 45% stake I hold will be transferred to you, including all the fixed assets and personnel of the factory, as well as the workers' wages and research institute expenses, which you'll have to take on.'"

  "I understand this, even if it's calculated like that, I've still got a good deal." Wang Xu smiled wryly, he was the kind of person who, when others showed him an inch of respect, he would return a yard. Yao Qingping spoke bluntly, but he felt somewhat ashamed.

  This is also Wang Xu's inexperience and ignorance of business. If it were a businessman, others would be eager to do so, and they would probably sleep with a smile on their face at night.

  "Don't be too happy yet." Yao Qingping cleared his throat and continued, "As for whether you can control the shares, it depends on whether you can cure your wife's illness. If you can't, I won't allow you to use the 10% diagnostic fee to buy out our shares. The Yao family wants controlling power."

  "Alright... " Wang Xu nodded after a moment of contemplation, "I agree. If I fail to cure Aunt Jin's illness, the controlling stake will go to the Yao family."

  "Haha, okay." Yao Qingping burst out laughing and said: "To be honest, I really hope Doctor Wang can control the stock. No amount of money can buy back one's health."

  "I understand this, I will try my best to cure it. If it can't be cured, it's not my fault for not being skilled enough in medicine." Wang Xu nodded his head.

  Two people were talking, the person who was sent to Fusheng Hall to buy medicine came back, Yao Qian personally arranged for someone to decoct the medicine, Wang Xu personally instructed, after the medicine was decocted, Wang Xu personally confirmed it again, and then watched Jin Ping take it.

  After Jin Ping took the medicine, Wang Xu waited for more than an hour and saw that there was no unusual condition. He got up to bid farewell and reminded again before leaving: "Director Yao, remember, during the medication period, all other medications are stopped, and painkillers must not be taken."

  "I understand this, Doctor Wang, please rest assured." Yao Qingping personally escorted Wang Xu to the door of the villa and instructed Yao Qian to drive Wang Xu back.

  Wang Xu glanced at the time, it was already past 10 pm. He didn't refuse, as this area of Zhongjiang is basically a wealthy district with private cars, and taxis are originally scarce. At this hour, it's even harder to hail a taxi near the villa district.

  As for Qiao's family, it was already so late that Wang Xu didn't want to disturb them. He got into Yao Qian's car and once they left the garden villa district, Yao Qian thanked him again: "Doctor Wang, I'm really sorry to have kept you busy until so late."

  "Why be so polite? Didn't we already consider each other friends?" Wang Xu said with a smile, sitting in the passenger seat.

  "Alright, from now on I won't call you Dr. Wang either, it's a bit awkward to call you that, so I'll just call you Wang Xu." Yao Qian smiled and said: "And don't keep calling me President Yao, President Yao. You just called my mom Aunt Jin and my dad President Yao, my dad already has an opinion about this."

  The two of them chatted on and off, the car had just reached halfway when Wang Xu's phone rang, it was Qiao Bin Kai calling: "Wang, are you back yet?"

  "On the way, Yao Qian is driving me, it's so late, I won't bother you." Wang Xu smiled.

  "It's not too late, either. Just now, that kid Leifeng called and said let's go to Jinye Karaoke together. I was thinking of going over to pick you up. Since that's the case, don't go back home, either. We'll go together. Wait for me at the entrance of Jinye."

  "It's so late, I'd better give up, and I'm still carrying a medical kit." Wang Xu hastily refused.

  "How can this be, we haven't gathered together for a long time, and I've been saying that I'll take you out to have some fun. Tonight is just right." Qiao Bin Kai said in a tone that brooked no refusal: "It's settled then, I'll put the medical box in my car later and send you back home." With that, he hung up the phone.

  Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Wang Xu smiled bitterly again and said to Yao Qian: "Take me to Golden Years, Brother Qiao is calling, can't refuse."

  "Golden Age, that's not a good place, I'm telling you, Wang Xu, don't learn from Old Qiao and the others." Yao Qian said with a smile, while still turning the steering wheel, making a U-turn at the intersection ahead, heading towards Golden Age.

  Jinse Nianhua is not far from Jianghuai Villa, Wang Xu and Yao Qian have already opened the door, when they arrived at the entrance, Qiao Binkai was already waiting there, seeing Wang Xu and Yao Qian, smiled and said: "President Yao, won't you go up and play together?"

  "I'd better get out of here, you guys are a bunch of big men, probably up to no good in a place like this. By the way, Qiao, be careful or I'll tell your wife." Yao Qian waved her hand and joked.

  "I'm a good man, I came here to sing and drink." Qiao Bin Kai said with a smile, watching Yao Qian leave with Wang Xu, then put Wang Xu's medical box in the car, handed the key to the car servant, and walked into the house with Wang Xu.

  "Lei Peng is treating us, but he hasn't arrived yet. Let's go up first and book a private room to wait for them." Qiao Bin said with a smile, warmly putting his arm around Wang Xu's shoulder.

  "Welcome, sir." The two of them entered and were immediately greeted by someone who came forward to welcome them.

  "Open a good private room and take us up." Qiao Binkai smiled and instructed the door, while saying, he turned his head to whisper to Wang Xu: "This place is not often visited by me, but Leipeng that kid comes frequently, should have a fixed private room, but I'm too lazy to care about him, when we get back, we'll first fine him a few cups."

  "Sir, our private rooms are divided into ordinary rooms with a minimum consumption of 3,000 yuan, luxury rooms with a minimum consumption of 8,000 yuan, top-level luxury rooms with a minimum consumption of 10,000 yuan, and top-level VIP rooms with a minimum consumption of 30,000 yuan. Which one do you need?" The doorman smiled and introduced.

  "How many rules are there? Can't we just get on with it?" Joey muttered, waving his hand impatiently.

  "Alright, currently our best private rooms are the top-level VIP suites. Please follow me." The doorman said with a smile, leading Wang Xu and the other person into the elevator.

  This golden age is one of the well-known entertainment venues in Zhongjiang, decorated very luxuriously and with a high level. However, in Qiao Bin Kai's eyes, it was just that, his group's entertainment venue was much better than this one.

  But this time it was Le Peng treating, so Qiao Bin Kai wouldn't let him save money, and he ordered the best as soon as he opened his mouth. They entered a private room, where Qiao Bin Kai first ordered a barrel of beer and drank with Wang Xu while waiting for Le Peng and the others.

  The two of them had just finished a bottle of wine when Leipeng's phone call came: "Boss Qiao, sorry about this, but I ran into Jiang Shao and a few friends halfway there, so we changed the location on a whim to Yue Shang Yao Sao."

  "You damn it, I and Wang Lao Di have already opened a private room in Golden Years, this thing I don't care about, you come over as soon as possible." Qiao Bin Kai immediately became unhappy upon hearing this.

  "Director Qiao, Big Brother Qiao, I have a friend from Kyoto, please give me some face, otherwise I'll drink a few more cups to apologize, and also help me say sorry to Dr. Wang." Lei Peng repeatedly apologized.

  "This time I'll let you off, kid." Qiao Binkai said with a smile and scolding tone, then hung up the phone and told Wang Xu: "This kid changed the location at the last minute, it's now at Yue Shang Yao. Let's go." After saying that, he stood up, called over the waiter and said: "We've only been seated for less than ten minutes, had two bottles of beer, I'll give you 2,000 yuan, we have something to do, let's leave first."

  "Sorry sir, I'm not in charge of this matter. Let me go ask the manager." The waiter hastily smiled and quickly exited the private room.

  Before long, a young man in his thirties walked in with a smile all over his face and said: "Two brothers, what's going on? Is our service not good enough?"

  "No, just a temporary matter, we have to leave. We've only been here for less than 10 minutes and had two bottles of beer. Here's 2,000 yuan for you." said Qiao Bin Kai with a smile.

  "Brother, don't make it difficult for me. This is a luxurious VIP room, the best one we have here, with a minimum consumption of 30,000 yuan. The front desk has already registered... " The young man said, his face turning gloomy and tearful.

  "How is it, we've sat for less than 10 minutes and had two bottles of beer, and you're not satisfied with 2,000 yuan?" Qiao Bin Kai suddenly became angry. He himself had money, but he wasn't a fool, and his own company also had entertainment venues. To say so was already giving the other party face.

  "Big brother, isn't this making things difficult for me? I'm just a working-class person too." The young man continued to cry with a gloomy face, not giving in at all.

  "Y...". Qiao Binkai's trembling fingers were about to speak again when he was pulled back by Wang Xu.

  "Is the minimum consumption 30,000 yuan?" Wang Xu looked at the young man with a smile and asked.

  "Not bad, this private room has a minimum consumption of 30,000 yuan." The young manager nodded and said.

  "Uh-huh, got it." Wang Xu walked over, picked up the wine list in the private room and flipped through it, directly flipping to the cheapest section, and said: "First, let's have 100 servings of peanuts, then 100 servings of clear noodle soup."
