There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then I heard the Shanxi boss say again: "Oh, 80,000 yuan is a bit too much for me to lose. How about this, 90,000 yuan, let me lose less."
"You also know that I am a college student. I know a little bit about the food and business conditions of the shops on Daxue Road. Your location is too remote. If it were closer to the school gate, my friend would definitely ask for 100,000 yuan... Boss
, you know better than me that no one will offer a higher price than me. If you are willing, we can go through the procedures today and give you the money at once. As for the things in the store, you can move all the things in the store."
Since the other party took the initiative to call, he must have accepted the price of 80,000 yuan. If he said 90,000 yuan, it was just to get more money. How could Liu Gen not know what the Shanxi boss was thinking.
After another brief silence, the other party said: "I encountered something that urgently needed money, and I lost money! Ask your friend to come over and handle the procedures."
"Okay, see you in half an hour." Liu Gen hung up the phone and was so excited that he punched the table with his fist. He immediately paged Xiangzi and asked him to meet him at Shanxi Noodle House. He went to the bank to withdraw money, but his bank
He said that if it exceeds 50,000, he must make an appointment. If you give your own money to others, you will always be subject to restrictions of one kind or another. Liu Gen has no choice but to ride to Shanxi Noodle House empty-handed and tell the Shanxi boss that he can only get the money early tomorrow morning.
.
"It doesn't matter. You can also transfer money. It will be transferred to my account together with the deposit." The owner of Shanxi Noodle House seemed to want to get the money immediately.
After signing the transfer agreement, Liu Gen went to the bank and transferred the transfer fee of 80,000 yuan and the mortgage deposit of 10,000 yuan to him according to the account number mentioned by the Shanxi boss. Then he went to the school logistics office and changed the tenant information. Logistics
The office collected a handling fee of RMB 200 for changing the account name, and a new note was issued to Liu Gen for the deposit of RMB 10,000.
After completing the formalities, the shop was closed, and Liu Gen gave the Shanxi boss half a day to move the items.
When Yanagi Gen and Xiangzi were walking towards the school gate, Brother Sweet Potato, who was doing business, stopped them.
"Haha... So you are the famous Brother Gen. I have known you for so long and I didn't even know you were Brother Gen, haha..." Brother Sweet Potato stuffed a roasted sweet potato for each of Liu Gen and Xiangzi, looked at Liu Gen and said: "
Brother Gen, there is something, haha... I want to beg you..."
"You're welcome. If you have anything to say, just say it." Liu Gen put the roasted sweet potatoes back on the oven.
Xiangzi was not polite, he peeled it open and ate it.
"Brother Gen, do you need someone to guard the shop at night? Haha... I think if you are willing, I can pay some money and live in the shop..."
"Okay, you can live in the shop and don't have to pay..." Liu Gen agreed without even thinking about it.
Xiangzi poked the willow root and asked Zhou Yongheng: "When you used to live in the shop, how much money did you pay to Mr. Shanxi every month?"
"Haha... not much, two hundred yuan." Brother Hongshu replied with a smile.
Liu Gen pulled Xiangzi and said to Zhou Yongheng: "You stay here first. I also need people to look after the shop. No need to pay." He pulled Xiangzi and left.
"Brother Gen, if you have the money, why don't you take it?" Xiangzi said in a low voice.
"Are you looking for money?" Liu Gen slapped Xiangzi on the back of the head: "No one is guarding the shop, go and guard it!"
"Aren't we looking for a steamed bun-making master? We'll let him keep it from now on!"
Liu Gen glared at Xiangzi: "Xiangzi, the chefs and steamed bun masters we hired must not wrong others. I have thought about it. You can live in my dormitory, and the chefs and steamed bun masters can go to the house you rent now.
Sleep inside."
"What... that won't work! Even if I wanted to, Zhang Jian and the others wouldn't do it!" Xiangzi said.
"Then where do you want people to sleep? In a shop? We don't know anything. We have to rely on chefs and steamed bun masters to make money for us. Don't trap people, give them some benefits, and help us make something.
Does it taste good?" Liu Gen thought for a while and then said: "You are right, Zhang Jian and the others will definitely not live with migrant workers, we have to find a comfortable place for them to live."
"Brother Gen, please leave it to me. As long as you are willing to spend money, you can't find any good place." Xiangzi felt that Liu Gen was right.
"Otherwise, let's find a place for the chef to live alone. It won't be too expensive. Let the steamed bun master live in my dormitory first. It's not easy for Brother Hongshu, so let him live in the shop, which can be regarded as helping others.
, It’s such a cold day, we can’t let him stand in the street all night around the stove without a place to sleep.”
"Brother Gen, school is about to start. You still have Mr. Wen's affairs to be busy with. I quit my job at the entertainment city." Xiangzi stopped arguing with Liu Gen about this matter. He thought of the situation when he was sleeping on the street.
He knows what it feels like.
"I quit. First I have to find a decoration company. Within ten days, I have to decorate the shop. During this period, I have to recruit a chef as soon as possible. I also have to buy freezers, refrigerators, disinfection cabinets and other items. I can only take the time to follow you. Time
It's very urgent, I have to call Slug and ask him to find Willow Branch, and ask my mother to help us find a steamed bun maker and buy an oven as soon as possible." Liu Gen said.
"Okay, I'll quit my job in the entertainment city tonight and start looking for a decoration company tomorrow."
"Look for several more companies to see which one is cheaper and has a better design. Construction must start within three days. As for the cost, according to our previous budget, it should not exceed 30,000, including tables, chairs, cabinets, and store decorations. The colors must be bright.
It should be more conspicuous, at least it should be higher than the facades of other shops." Only now did Liu Gen realize that if you are not a business owner, you will not waste time on food, rice, oil and salt. Even though it is only a small shop, you have to think of everything.
"What's the name?" Xiangzi asked.
Liu Gen thought for a while and said: "Everything is people-oriented. Food is the first thing for the people, so food is the first thing. When a person lives, eating is the most important thing."
"What a name! Brother Gen, once you hear this resounding name, our shop will definitely become popular!"
"This is just the beginning. There is still a long way to go. We have to save as much as possible. Cash flow is very important. We must ensure cash flow for at least three months!" When Liu Gen thought about spending a lot of money,
I feel angry because if I can't make any profits within three months after I open my business, I will be passive.
It is difficult to start a business, but it is even more difficult for Liu Gen. The difficulty lies in money. Two hundred thousand is borrowed, so it is easy to spend it, but it is not that simple to earn it back.
After dinner, Liu Gen first called Slug, who runs a hotel and restaurant in Qiong County. Within half an hour, Slug drove to Xiangzi's house, picked up Yanizhi and his mother, went to his house, and called him.
Don't let the other party spend money, don't answer the phone, and then call them.
After Slug handed the phone to his mother, Liu Gen said: "Mom, Xiangzi and I have bought a shop to do the Roujiamo business. We need a master who can make steamed buns. He shouldn't be too old and single.
It's better. Slug's family is a caterer. He must know someone. Ask him to help find one. The salary is twice that of Qiong County, including food and accommodation. After finding it, ask the steamed bun master to buy three steamed bun baking stoves.
, let Slug help find a small truck, and work with the steamed bun master to transport the stove to Nanhai. I will pay them for the freight and food and accommodation expenses on the road after arriving in Nanhai..."
"Gen'er, if you don't study hard, why do you do business? Don't let your father down by delaying your studies just to make money..." Mother was very worried when she heard Liu Gen said that she wanted to open a shop.
"Mom, don't worry. I know what's important and what's not. Xiangzi is mainly responsible for taking care of it. I focus on my studies..." Liu Gen explained to his mother for a long time before convincing her that she was interested and agreed to find someone and buy a stove.
.
The next day, Xia Yang returned to school. After getting off the train, she did not go back to school directly. Instead, she found Liu Gen's dormitory. Li Chengzai returned to school one day early and was in the dormitory.
"Brother Liu Gen hasn't arrived at school yet?" Xia Yang asked Li Chengzai without seeing Liu Gen there.
"Brother Gen rented a house to live outside." Li Chengzai answered.
"What? Brother Liu Gen also rents a house?" Xia Yang was so surprised that he couldn't believe it.
"I'm surprised, haha... There's something even more surprising for you." Li Chengzai poured a glass of water for Xia Yang and said, "Brother Gen and Xiangzi have also purchased a shop on Daxue Road, and they are going to start doing business."
"What..." Xia Yang stood up in shock: "Are they crazy?" He walked to the dormitory phone and wanted to page Liu Gen.
"You can call Brother Gen directly. I have his mobile phone number." Li Chengzai looked through the phone record book and said.
"Brother Liu Gen also bought a mobile phone!" Xia Yang took the phone number Li Chengzai found and dialed it.
Liu Gen and Xiangzi were recruiting chefs in the talent exchange market. They received a call from the dormitory. When they heard it was Xia Yang, Liu Gen asked: "Xia Yang, when did you arrive..."
"Brother Liu Gen, where are you now?" Xia Yang asked loudly before Liu Gen finished speaking.
"Xiangzi and I are at the talent exchange market." Yanagi replied with a smile.
"Where is it? I'm going there now." Xia Yang asked.
"You don't have to come over, we have to go back now." Liu Gen saw that there were not many people applying for jobs in the afternoon and planned to go back to school.
"Okay, I'll wait for you in the dormitory." Xia Yang hung up the phone angrily: "What are they doing? They're going to the job market to recruit people!"
Liu Gen and Xiangzi came back before dinner. Not only Xia Yang but also Zhang Jian were also in the dormitory. They all knew that Liu Gen and Xiangzi were going to open a restaurant. Everyone was surprised and everyone was talking about it.
"Brother Liu Gen, do you and Brother Xiangzi really want to open a restaurant?" Xia Yang asked anxiously when he saw Liu Gen and Xiangzi coming back.
"Haha...yes, we will open in half a month." Liu Gen replied with a smile.
"Just you two?" Xia Yang snorted coldly: "Can anyone eat the food we made?"
"There are chefs." Xiangzi answered for Yanagi: "We are recruiting chefs." He waved several resumes he received.
"Where did you two get so much money?" Xia Yang's question was what Zhang Jian and the others wanted to know.
"Haha... Xiangzi and I went home, right? His dad's bank account has been unfrozen and he has money now." Liu Gen winked at Xiangzi and said.
"Yeah, it's thawed, haha..." Xiangzi smiled awkwardly and helped Yanagi hide it.
"Really?" Xia Yang tilted his head and asked in confusion.
"Since all the shops are closed down, can we fake it?" Liu Gen poked Xiangzi in the arm and said, "From now on, Xiangzi will be the boss."
"Brother Liu Gen, where did you move to live? The money for renting the house also belongs to brother Xiangzi?" Xia Yang asked reluctantly: "And the mobile phone was also bought with brother Xiangzi's money?"
Liu Gen looked embarrassed and nodded with a silly smile, indicating his acquiescence.
"No future!" Xia Yang said harshly to Liu Gen, picked up his suitcase and started to go out.
"Xia Yang..." Xiangzi stopped him quickly: "After dinner, let's go with Brother Gen..." Looking at Liu Gen: "Brother Gen, please speak."
Xia Yang seemed to have remembered something. He took out an envelope from his backpack, handed it to Liu Gen and said, "Here, this is the photo my dad took last time!" Then he pushed Xiangzi away, pulled the suitcase, and became angry.
The drum is gone.
Liu Gen took the envelope and took out the photos inside without leaving Xia Yang to eat.
"Oh, Ouyang Xue went to Brother Gen's house during the vacation!" Wang Jiahe sat next to Liu Gen. When he saw Ouyang Xue in the photo, he exclaimed, snatched the photo from Liu Gen's hand, and shared it with Zhang Jian and the others one by one.
Look.
However, Yanagine and Xiangzi took their lunch boxes and quietly walked out of the dormitory.
"Brother Gen, Xia Yang seems to be very angry." Xiangzi said.
"Don't worry so much. No matter how she asks you in the future, you can't tell the truth." Liu Gen felt that it might be a good thing to make Xia Yang angry with him.
