Chapter 52

When the elders from all clans returned, their feet were weak.

Well, except for the clan elder, the rest of the Ren family members also have similar virtues.

They were all pulled into the illusion by Lin Cheng and had a preview of the underworld.

As a result, everyone shut up and did not dare to mention the matter of dividing the family property again.

He can't beat him again and again, and he can't compare to others in terms of ruthlessness.

It was still fun, but the clan elders had no choice but to enter turtle mode again.

I raise birds and fight cocks every day, thinking about my old age.

They are all ordinary people who cannot tell the difference between reality and fantasy.

In their perception, Lin Chengcheng took them to the underworld.

Such magical means made them feel afraid from the bottom of their hearts, and they couldn't even raise the slightest intention to resist.

Thinking about it, if this group of tribesmen were really that bold, they wouldn't have been so pressured by Ren Fa that they couldn't hold their heads up.

They only dared and could only bully the weak. Facing Lin Cheng, who was stronger than Ren Fa, their heads shrank faster than a turtle!
Therefore, without the obstruction of the clan elders, Lin Cheng could finally build Temple Market Street in a drastic way.

He first consolidated all the stores of the Ren family and bought the entire Western Market through replacement and purchase.

Then, according to the pre-designed plan, the construction of the new Town God's Temple began, and at the same time, all the shops in the West Market were re-planned.

There are a total of three main streets in West Market.

He renamed a street near the Chenghuang Temple as Chenghuang Street. Almost all the shops on this street were designed to sell such products as ghost coins, ingots, candles, incense, marriage tablets, and scriptures.

This is similar to the streets around temples in later generations, where the main selling points are faith and desire.

Lin Cheng planned the second street as a food street, and most of the shops sold fast food. The purpose was to allow customers to spend more time shopping!

Of course, Lin Cheng also arranged several high-end restaurants to attract some high-spending groups.

As for the third street, Lin Cheng arranged it as a leisure and entertainment street. In addition to traditional entertainment methods such as brothels, Lin Cheng also added movies, dramas, dances and other entertainment projects with Western colors.

Don’t underestimate these. During the Republic of China, Chinese people generally had a mentality of admiring foreign things. Many people, especially wealthy people, were willing to spend money on these foreign gadgets to show their status.

In addition to these three streets, there are many small streets arranged by Lin Cheng for ordinary people to do business.

Let them have a place to sell vegetables, flowers, street stalls, etc.

Moreover, Lin Cheng also plans to imitate the practices of later generations of certain treasures, and often organize promotion days, consumption days and other activities to increase popularity and promote consumption.

Of course, these are all later arrangements. The most important thing now is to build the West City quickly.

Since ancient times, money has made it easy to do things. With Lin Cheng's investment regardless of cost, in just 8 days, a temple market street integrating entertainment, life, food, and faith took shape.

However, Lin Cheng encountered a big problem at this time. He had no money!
The savings of the Ren family for many years will soon be spent by him.

Looking at the empty warehouse, the housekeeper of Ren Mansion was anxious in his heart and in pain in his body.

He knew that it was useless to approach the young lady for this kind of thing, and that the young lady didn't know how to do business, so he followed Lin Chengyan's advice.

Now he is even more focused on his cultivation, and he doesn't even see people a few times.

As a last resort, the housekeeper found the real person in charge of the Ren family, Lin Cheng, Mr. Lin.

"Master, since the construction of Temple Market Street, including the purchase of shops, land, various wages and materials, we have spent nearly 1 yuan."

"The Ren family's savings over the years are almost gone."

Speaking of this, the housekeeper felt extremely heartbroken. These are all a vast ocean of white flowers.

And these do not include the cost of replacing the store. If those were included, the cost would at least double again!
Lin Cheng frowned when he heard this. It was only after he took over the Ren family's business that he realized that the real financial situation of the Ren family was not as mysterious as the outside world reported.

Nowadays, the Ren family is already in the sunset. Maybe it is still relatively wealthy in Renjia Town, but the Ren family's property is almost all real estate, and their cash is pitiful, only tens of thousands of dollars.

He has almost spent all his money in the past few days, but Temple Market Street has not yet been fully completed.

Lin Cheng understood that at times like this, the cash flow must not be cut off, otherwise, the Temple Market Street might become an unfinished project.

If that were to happen, not only would the Ren family's reputation be ruined, but the money they had previously invested would also be in vain.

What's more serious is that if the Temple Market Street cannot be built, it will offend the big boss, the City God.

At that time, it was a devastating blow to Uncle Jiu's career.

Uncle Jiu now not only wants to use his merits to improve his cultivation, but also uses his merits to suppress Qiu Fan's negative emotions.

Without merit, nothing can be said about it.

Therefore, the cash flow must not be interrupted!
Lin Cheng closed his eyes and thought for a while, then asked:

"How many days will the current money be enough to support you?"

The housekeeper was a little disappointed when he heard this. He originally wanted to persuade the master to give up Temple Street for the time being, but he didn't expect that the master would insist on his own way.

However, he is a loyal steward and will obey his master's orders no matter what.

He just sighed secretly and said:

"There are about 3000 yuan and some antiques in the warehouse. If all are taken into account, it can last for about 5 days."

Lin Cheng nodded when he heard this. In 5 days, the funds promised by Chaiguan should have arrived.

However, according to his estimation, it will take almost 15000 yuan to complete the temple market street.

Even if you add the 5000 yuan that the city god is about to send, it is still far from enough.

So, it’s time to get ripped off again!Lin Cheng opened his eyes, looked at the housekeeper and said gently:
"Don't worry, the money will be there, just do your own thing with peace of mind."

Lin Cheng still respected this housekeeper.

This housekeeper has been following Ren Fa before and has superb management skills.

He even followed Ren Fa in Shanghai to prepare for the construction of a large commercial center. Although the commercial center failed in the end, he also accumulated rich experience.

During this period of time, if it were not for the help of this housekeeper, Lin Cheng would not be able to handle such a large-scale project.

The most important thing is that he is very loyal, even to the point of being foolishly loyal.

Lin Cheng heard from Ren Tingting that the housekeeper was an orphan and was adopted by Ren Weiyong since he was a child, so he was absolutely loyal to Ren Tingting.

Note, it is to Ren Tingting and not to the Ren family.

There are many people like housekeepers, occupying almost all important positions.

Despite the cheerfulness of those tribesmen, in fact, it is nonsense for them to think that one of their own is in charge of the Ren family's business.

Most of the Ren family members they arranged only work in the position of bottom-level clerks, and most of the middle-level and upper-level managers are people trained by Ren Weiyong and Ren Fa themselves.

Seeing that Lin Cheng had made up his mind, the housekeeper didn't say much, turned around and left in silence, and continued to supervise the construction work.

Lin Cheng sat there, and after thinking for a while, he added a wind rune to himself, and leaped out like a flea.

It didn't take long to arrive at the Chenghuang Temple on the edge of the city.

He said to the statue of the City God:

"Uncle Chai, my nephew has something to ask for."

As soon as he finished speaking, the clay statue flashed with light.

I saw Chai Guan wearing casual long clothes appearing next to Lin Cheng, looking at him with a smile and saying:

"What's the matter with my nephew?"

Chai Guan has seen what Lin Cheng has done recently.

To be honest, he really didn't expect Lin Cheng to make such a big fuss.

Judging from the current situation, the prospects for Temple Market Street are greater than he had previously expected.

It is roughly estimated that as long as Temple Market Street operates smoothly, it can help him gather more than five times more incense than now.

If the incense is strong, his cultivation level will rise.

Maybe, he can also use this to become the Ghost King.

Truly standing at the pinnacle of this world!

Therefore, Chaiguan now looks particularly pleased with Lin Cheng, just like looking at his own nephew.

Lin Cheng first informed Chaiguan of the current progress and some of the long-term plans.

Chai Guan nodded repeatedly and said with appreciation:

"My good nephew is always quick to do things. Just do it according to your ideas. If you have any questions, just tell Uncle Chai. I will fully support you!"

Hearing this, Lin Cheng pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"I was about to tell Uncle Chai."

"My nephew has taken too big steps and invested too much money. Now the capital chain is about to be broken."

"I was worried about delaying Uncle Chai's big event, so I had no choice but to shamelessly come to Uncle Chai to borrow some money to spend."

"Don't worry, Uncle Chai, my nephew promises to return it to you in two years!"

Chai Guan waved his hand and said angrily:
"How much do you want, tell me!"

It’s about the road, money doesn’t matter, it’s just a pile of dung!

When Lin Cheng heard this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. Sure enough, the city god was a rich man!

"It costs almost 2 yuan."

Lin Cheng, whose heart was darker than the bottom of the pot, more than doubled the money he needed.

Anyway, the city gods don't usually use much of the earth's money, so occupying so many resources and not using them is just a waste.

Lin Cheng didn't have any psychological burden at all, and wanted to gather more wool now.

Once Temple Market Street is built, it will be difficult to get money from Chaiguan.

"I'll give you 3 yuan!"

“I only have one request, do your best to speed up the progress!”

Chai Guan said very boldly.

Lin Cheng:.
Damn it, it still needs less.

Lin Cheng suddenly realized this problem. After all calculations, he had miscalculated how wealthy the City God was.

If I had known he would have paid 5 yuan.

Alas, I am still too young and not thick-skinned enough.

Lin Cheng sighed secretly.
