This little boy looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
Seeing Ye Fan standing outside the window with a pensive look on his face, the principal smiled lightly: "Mr. Ye, the child sitting with Yiyi is named Nuonuo. He came to report last week."
"Teacher Zhang, that child is very cute, why doesn't anyone play with him?" Ye Fan asked in a low voice.
"Little Nuonuo is very introverted and afraid of people. He is very alert to everyone. It took Yiyi three full days last week before he could speak."
The smile on the principal's face was very kind.
"Yiyi opened the door to little Noonuo's heart. For children like him, once someone can gain their trust, he will be very dependent on that person.
Mr. Ye, look, Yiyi is guiding little Nono to play with other children.
I have worked in early childhood education for 40 years, and I have never seen a child as smart and smart as Yiyi. Mr. Ye, you are so lucky!"
"Yes, this child is nice to everyone." Ye Fan smiled proudly and shook hands with the principal.
"Teacher Zhang, thank you for taking care of Yiyi over the past month. You are an amazing early childhood educator. If given the opportunity, I hope you can help more people."
The principal was stunned and said with a smile: "I heard from Yiyi that Mr. Ye is in business. What, are you planning to invest in our kindergarten?"
"As long as Teacher Zhang opens his mouth, I will do my best." Ye Fan said with a humble smile.
"Okay, if I have this idea one day, I will definitely have a chat with Mr. Ye." The principal did not hesitate and agreed generously.
Ye Fan has a good impression of the principal.
She is a respectable aunt, and she has no interests in the kindergarten career.
Ye Fan could feel that Teacher Zhang opened the kindergarten out of his immense love for children.
Moreover, through her patient education, many children's problems can be greatly improved and develop in a positive and kind direction.
In this regard, Teacher Zhang is no longer an ordinary educator, but a very outstanding educator.
Ye Fan bid farewell to the director and drove to Shengda Plaza KFC.
KFC is already under construction and renovation. Everyone has been so busy these days that they leave early and come back late every day.
Ye Fan felt very guilty towards Li Ruoxin and Xiaojuan.
Apart from expressing some opinions, he basically took no other practical actions.
Xiaojuan expressed her dissatisfaction with him over and over again. If Xiao Zhao and Xiao Wu hadn't pulled him, Xiaojuan would have scolded him long ago.
The sign of KFC was changed to "Novan Fashion Dessert", a warning tape was placed around the door, and there was a constant "rumbling" sound inside.
Ye Fan parked the car in the Shengda Plaza parking lot and hurried to the store.
At this time, many decorations in the store have been almost finished. Manager Qi and several old KFC employees took the drawings and were communicating with the decoration master.
"Brother Qi!" Ye Fan greeted, "Uncle Zhang, Sister You, Brother Danan, the store is being renovated these days, and you are not resting in the dormitory, why did you come here?"
"Mr. Ye!"
Manager Qi and others hurriedly greeted Ye Fan and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, you and Mr. Li are renovating the store during this period, and our wages will still be counted. If we stay at home and cannot come to help, we will be very sorry for your kindness.
Already."
"Don't say that." Ye Fan waved his hands quickly, and then asked in a low voice: "Is Mr. Pan still in Binhai?"
"Mr. Pan went abroad the day before yesterday. He said you were very busy recently and didn't ask us to tell you."
Manager Qi smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, Mr. Li is in the office upstairs. You can go up and leave it to us below. I promise to supervise according to your requirements."
"Okay, I'll go up first, thank you for your hard work."
Ye Fan thanked him and went upstairs to the office.
Instructor Pan's office has good specifications and spacious enough space. It only needs to be slightly renovated on the basis of the original structure to continue to use it.
Li Ruoxin has very strict requirements on office location, so she took people to get the office set up yesterday.
"Xiao Li!"
Ye Fan walked into the office and saw Xiaojuan sitting opposite Li Ruoxin with a pulled face, holding a stack of thick folders in her hand.
"Hey, isn't this the shopkeeper Ye Dashou?" Xiaojuan snorted in amusement.
"Brother Ye, don't listen to Xiaojuan's nonsense." Li Ruoxin rolled her eyes at Xiaojuan, stood up and pulled Ye Fan to sit at the desk.
"Where are Xiao Wu and Xiao Zhao?" Ye Fan asked.
"Xiao Wu and several old employees went to the new store in the Central Mall to supervise the decoration. Xiao Zhao took several newly recruited pastry chefs to the equipment factory to purchase equipment."
Li Ruoxin handed Ye Fan a drawing and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, I didn't expect our KFC to have three floors!"
"Huh?" Ye Fan was stunned, "What third floor?"
Xiaojuan said displeasedly: "Brother Ye, this store is your favorite, why don't you even understand this?"
"Xiaojuan, it's my fault. I've worked hard for you these past few days. I'll be the host at noon today and treat you to a big dinner. You can eat whatever you want, okay?" Ye Fan said with a bitter smile.
"The attitude of confessing is not bad. Forget it, I forgive you."
Xiaojuan was not really angry with Ye Fan to begin with, she just had a small temper tantrum and was unhappy that Ye Fan disappeared every now and then and did nothing.
Ye Fan scratched his head and asked in a low voice: "Xiaojuan, what did you mean by the third floor just now?"
"Brother Ye, are you stupid? Doesn't the third floor mean that there is another floor below that belongs to us? The area is exactly the same as the one upstairs, about 150 square meters, of which 30 square meters are freezers.
The rest is a utility room.”
Xiaojuan pointed to the drawing in Ye Fan's hand and said: "The boss lady plans to move the cloakroom on the third floor to the next floor, and also organize a 60-square-meter nutritional pastry studio to supply Mr. Yuan's gym.
"
"A studio downstairs?"
Ye Fan was stunned and said, "This is not good. The moisture on the bottom floor is relatively heavy. There is no problem in arranging the utility room and freezer, but will it be bad if it is turned into a nutritional pastry studio?"
Li Ruoxin smiled faintly: "Brother Ye, I have also considered it. However, I plan to make the nutritional pastry studio an isolated heating space to ensure the sealing and high-temperature environment inside.
On the one hand, it’s because the space downstairs is large enough, and on the other hand, the production, baking, and storage can be separated, which ensures that the pastries are more hygienic.”
"Wouldn't this greatly increase the cost?" Ye Fan frowned.
"Brother Ye, Xiaojuan and I have calculated that renting a suitable pastry studio nearby will cost much more than the maintenance cost of our warm space.
We only need to invest the first capital, and we can recoup the cost of investing in the heating space within six years! After that, even if we expand the heating space, there will be enough space downstairs to meet our needs."
Li Ruoxin is confident.
Ye Fan thought for a while, "That's right, the warm cultivation space is highly isolated and hygienic. We want Novan to come down, so sooner or later the money will have to be invested."
"So you agreed?" Li Ruoxin smiled.
"Can I refuse to agree?" Ye Fan asked back, "You and Xiaojuan are experts. You two can figure it out. I believe you."
Xiaojuan covered her mouth and smiled, "Brother Ye, you are the major shareholder. A layman leads an expert. Isn't it very difficult?"
"It's okay." Ye Fan deeply felt that being the hands-off shopkeeper was the best choice.
Li Ruoxin has Xiaojuan and the others as her right assistants, so she can definitely make the store bigger and stronger. It's better not to point fingers.
Soon it was noon, Ye Fan fulfilled his promise, called everyone together and treated them to a big meal.
Because Xiao Zhao was negotiating business at the equipment factory, he unfortunately missed this good opportunity to kill Ye Fan.
In the afternoon, Ye Fan and Li Ruoxin went to Yuanyin's brother gym store to discuss cooperation in the fitness kitchen.
Yuan Yin was so outspoken that he was willing to provide the venue and customers, and proactively asked for only 20% of the shares.
Li Ruoxin was shocked. She originally thought that Yuan Yin would cost at least 50%, so she was ready to bargain.
"Mr. Yuan, do you really only hold 20%?" Li Ruoxin modified the contract and glanced at Ye Fan lightly.
"Of course." Yuan Yin laughed, "Ye Fan and I have been brothers for so many years. He should know me best and will never change what he says!"
"But, you'll be at a huge disadvantage this way." Li Ruoxin heard the reason why he was willing to take such a small share and felt a little embarrassed.
Ye Fan waved his hand, "Xiao Li, I am the same as Lao Yuan, only 20%. You develop the things and you handle the affairs. It is reasonable for you to take the big share."
"Brother Ye, come and make fun of me too!" Li Ruoxin wrinkled her nose slightly and hummed: "You provided the funds, Mr. Yuan provided the customers, I am relatively just a part-time worker, how can I get so much!"
Ye Fan pondered for a while and said in a low voice: "Let's do this. The team led by Xiao Wu will get 5% of the shares, and the other three people, Xiaojuan, Xiao Zhao, and Xiao Wu, will equally share 9% of the shares. You
I personally hold 51% of the shares, is that okay?”
"That's a lot!" Li Ruoxin said with an awkward smile.
Yuan Yin exclaimed, "Mr. Li, when people cooperate with each other, they always think that the shares are too small. Why do you always think that the shares are too much? If you do this business, you won't be able to make losses in the future?"
"Mr. Yuan, please stop laughing at me." Li Ruoxin sighed with emotion, "I know you cooperated with me for Brother Ye's sake, but you two..."
"Okay, why bother as a family?" Ye Fan took Li Ruoxin's hand, "Isn't what's mine yours?"
Yuan Yin was stunned, "Ye...Ye Fan, is she..."
"My girlfriend." Ye Fan put his arms around Li Ruoxin's waist lovingly, "Why, why don't you call her sister-in-law?"
Yuan Yin opened his mouth, filtering information rapidly in his head.
He just had a phone call with Dong Yuejun yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, Ye Fan has a girlfriend again.
Damn it, the red flag at home is not down, but the colorful flags are flying outside!
"Oh, it turns out that Mr. Li is sister-in-law! Hey, I am the one who suffers the most!"
Yuan Yin smiled coquettishly and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, since this is the case, let's make it clear. It has not been easy for Mark these years. I am cooperating with you and I also want to help him.
Of course, I'm not looking down on him. Ye Fan's abilities are absolutely fine, but he was delayed in the past few years.
We are brothers, and since you have such a good project, there is no need to be too commercial with me regarding shares, and neither Ye Fan nor I like this."
