Chapter 405: At Loggerheads

Jian Ai sat in her seat and looked at everything in front of her. She seemed to have read Jian Changsheng’s mind.

Perhaps he wanted this club in the beginning, but now his goal has changed. It was obvious that he did not want her to get this club.

At this moment, Jian Changsheng’s bid reached twenty million yuan.

Without Jian Ai’s signal, Bai Zhou naturally wouldn’t stop. He immediately raised his bid to continue, but Jian Ai gently stopped him.

Jian Ai shook her head at him. “Forget it.”

Twenty million yuan had already exceeded the actual value of this club. She had no intention of making enemies or going against the Jian Group. If she continued to bid, it would be a loss even if she won the bid.

She was a business person, so she could not make a loss.

With Jian Ai’s withdrawal, the Jian Group won the club for twenty million yuan.

This price had already exceeded the club’s actual price. After all, the club’s location was not in Haicheng District. Although its scale was like Yaochi, it was not as valuable.

Twenty million yuan. Jian Changsheng gained nothing.

Jian Changsheng naturally knew this, but he didn’t lack the twenty million yuan. He just needed to win against East Sea Real Estate!

“This Jian Changsheng is still holding a grudge?” Bai Zhou curled his lips in disdain.

Jian Ai smiled but did not comment.

Jian Changsheng didn’t hold a grudge. He wanted face!

Forget it. Although she had finally taken a liking to this club but did not win it, Jian Ai did not take it to heart.

Victory and defeat were common in war. No one would always be satisfied with auction outcomes.

The commentator’s voice sounded. At this moment, the auction for the fourth business had already begun.

“Muse Bar is in the center of a street in Haicheng District. It’s a fashionable nightclub that is well liked by young people. They renovated the bar just last year and introduced top-notch foreign sound equipment and a dance floor…”

The commentator’s passionate commentary didn’t arouse Jian Ai’s interest, but it made Bai Zhou’s eyes light up.

“Boss, this is good!” Bai Zhou said excitedly.

Jian Ai looked at him and smiled. “A bar?”

Bai Zhou nodded. “Young, energetic, passionate, and liberating are synonymous with the entertainment industry at present. Bars have been deeply embedded in the lives of young people in recent years. The system is mature, and the management model is simple. Although the profits are not as much as the clubs, it can still earn money faster than ordinary businesses.”

When Jian Ai heard this, she thought Bai Zhou’s words were reasonable.

Baiyun City was a top-tier city in China. Nightlife was rich, colorful, and fashionable. There were many nightclubs and bars.

Although there were many of them, some famous nightclubs were still full every day. There was no empty space.

It was the same for low-end nightclubs like Starlight Bar in Zhonglou District.

With this thought in mind, Jian Ai nodded. “Take it down!”

When Bai Zhou heard this, he quickly raised his bid.

Because it was a nightclub in Haicheng District, the starting bid was relatively high. After a few rounds of bidding, it had already reached ten million yuan!

According to the bar’s business model, it would take at least half a year for them to earn back their capital with an investment of ten million yuan.

Everyone regretfully retreated. Bai Zhou revealed a relieved smile.

“Eleven million yuan!”

Just as Bai Zhou thought the bar was already in his hands, an unhappy voice suddenly sounded.

Jian Changsheng raised his number plate and sat upright.

Jian Ai frowned and felt unhappy.

Would the Jian Group fancy a bar? Jian Ai didn’t believe that Jian Changsheng really wanted this bar.

Since that was the case, Jian Changsheng’s goal was self-evident!
