The preparations for Chen Chen's wedding went smoothly.
On the day of the wedding banquet, Chen Mo went to the airport to pick up Bai Xiaoou and the others.
Bai Xiaoou, Luo Chen, Zhang Kun, Luo Chen and Zhang Kun were supposed to return to China a few days early. Bai Xiaoou only came to attend a wedding and then left. There are many things over there that cannot be separated from people...
After receiving a few people, Chen Mo stepped forward and hugged them, then walked towards the parking lot: "Chen Chen is busy and didn't come over for tonight's banquet."
"learn."
When he arrived at the parking lot and sat in the car, Bai Xiaoou took a look at it and said, "Okay, is it an Audi sport brand owned by Audi?"
“Good taste.”
"The shift paddles are there, it's obvious, okay." Bai Xiaoou rolled his eyes: "The hot pot restaurant 'Old Shufeng Hot Pot Restaurant' owned by Tangxia Yipin will open in a few days."
Bai Xiaoou talked about the situation of hot pot restaurants.
Tangxia Yipin invested 2 million, and the entire acquisition process cost 31 million. All were loans...
The market assessment value of the single-family store acquired was around 28 million. Using the store as collateral and in the name of Tangxia Yipin, a total loan of 30 million was obtained.
"Isn't the step too big?" Chen Mo said as he started the car.
"In recent years, the business of Chinese restaurants in the United States has generally been better than in previous years. Take advantage of the opportunity to acquire valuable fixed assets to facilitate future financing and even go public. Guess the average turnover of two Chinese restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area?
Guess how much it is?”
"Ten thousand a day?" Chen Mo said.
Large-scale high-end restaurants, with a daily turnover of tens of thousands of dollars, are also scary.
"The two restaurants have been open for almost two months, with a total turnover of... 1.05 million US dollars. The San Francisco restaurant contributed 730,000 turnover." Bai Xiaoou snapped his fingers: "Next year, I am going to let the restaurant chef organize some Chinese food
I will build a private store and sell recipes in books. I will turn Tangxia Yipin into a brand. If possible, I will also prepare to develop it domestically..."
"These plans are too long-term, and if the steps are too big, it will easily hurt the balls."
"I've made big steps. I haven't kept an eye on you for a few days in Montana. The Snow Mountain Ranch has been expanded and now has more than 86,000 acres. How much debt do you have there, and can you continue to operate it?"
Chen Mo chuckled twice, and after returning to Chongzhou and sending Zhang Kun and Luo Chen home, Chen Mo continued the previous topic: "My ranch has no debts, and I found a gold mine and sapphire deposit area on the ranch.
All the sedimentary gold mines have been mined... In the sapphire area, there should be a lot of rough sapphires there, we found some when we were panning for gold."
"Gold mine..." Does Bai Xiaoou know the history of Chen Mo's fortune? Because of gold, gold was found again?
"I have been an old miner for decades. I discovered gold first, and then decided to take out a loan to expand the pasture and hide it from others." This is the idea, but the origin of gold...
"Okay. I'm afraid you won't become a billionaire."
"Almost, almost... By the way, the beef you ordered, how much does it cost per pound?"
"$5.15, quite expensive. But the quality of the meat is really good, at least one level higher than other first-grade beef. The marble pattern is clear and the meat is bright pink. We are going to hold a press conference here to promote it.
How's your ranch?" Bai Xiaoou complained that meat is expensive. The price of US$5.15 does not include shipping. Special refrigerated trucks are required to transport fresh meat. If the sales volume is large enough, lower-cost sea transportation will be considered in the future.
The price of $5.15 still excludes numbers 3, 4, 5, 7, 20, and 21.
After a cow is slaughtered, there are dozens of sets of numbers. Parts 3-4 are the most classic parts of steak, ribs or rib-eye steaks. Parts 5, 6, and 7 are in similar positions, and 6 is the famous filet mignon.
.There are two cuts: 5 and 7. No. 5 is sirloin steak, and No. 7 is a slightly lower position, also sirloin.
In these locations, first-class quality (excellent grade) beef is sold to the most upscale Western restaurants, with prices ranging from US$8.520 per pound. It can even be sold for higher prices...
"Forget it. The output of the Snow Mountain Ranch is in short supply, and Ellison is still urging for fattened calves... It's better to keep a low profile at this stage, lest the ranch workers become famous and clamor for higher wages." Chen Mo laughed and said,
I don’t want to be too famous now. The development of Snow Mountain Ranch will not be good if someone comes out to dig deeper. And as mentioned just now, the output of the ranch is in short supply, and it will not be able to meet Ellison’s demand.
At the banquet in the evening, everyone went to the ktv to sing after dinner.
Bai Xiaoou stayed at Chen Mo's house and went to pick up his bride early the next morning...
By the way, he was still Chen Chen's best man. He couldn't resist his younger brother. This was the first time that his younger brother insisted and begged himself. Chen Mo's old face was hot, but he still put on a suit and a flower on his chest.
As the best man and the groom's brother, he must be the front-runner during the wedding reception.
"Brothers and sisters, open the door." Chen Mo shouted at the top of his lungs.
There were more than a dozen people blocking the way, and there were also several beautiful girls, including the bridesmaids. A beautiful little girl said: "The husband and wife love each other for a long time. Give me a red envelope before I leave."
"Here, here, here...you are the bridesmaid, so you are going to make trouble too." Chen Mo grabbed a handful of red envelopes and gave them to Li Xiaoqing.
"Father's love will never leave me. It's not enough if the red envelope is too small." Li Xiaoqing pursed her lips and smiled.
"Yes, it won't work if the red envelope is too small."
"Here..." Chen Mo grabbed another handful of red envelopes. Only then did Li Xiaoqing give in with satisfaction...
"Brothers and sisters, please give Xiaoqing some face and let us get married smoothly." Li Xiaoqing got the red envelope and started to help Chen Mo.
"People have searched for him through hundreds of searches, so I won't waste any time giving him a red envelope."
Chen Chen handed out red envelopes one by one and finally entered the bride's room. The bride was in the room, and there was also a group of besties... The group of besties was also called the bridesmaid group. These ladies would never be soft-hearted in blocking the door and asking for red envelopes.
It's nothing too much, just leave it when it's good.
But after entering the room, there is another game to lead the bride with a red thread...
The bridesmaids and Zhang Xia's relatives and friends kept draining the red envelopes brought by Chen Chen, and then let the bride go, and the group returned to Chongzhou happily...
The wedding was held at Qingping Lake Villa.
"Dear guests and friends...invite the groom and the bride..."
At the end of the day, the parents spoke. After Chen's father said his blessings, Chen Chen handed the topic to Chen Mo: "This is my eldest brother. Growing up, he often taught me and my sister a lesson. Every time my sister and I were disobedient, my father would
If mom doesn't do anything, my brother will become fierce and sometimes beat me..." Chen Chen said with tears in his eyes and started to cry.
"I got married today and walked in front of my eldest brother. I am here to hope that my brother can find a lifelong companion as soon as possible, and I also want to hear his hopes for us..."
This kid.
Chen Mo is a person who is not easily moved. Hearing Chen Chen's sobbing voice, he hugged him tightly and looked at Chen Xiao in the audience: "Come here."
Chen Xiao ran up with red eyes...
Chen Mo asked Chen Xiao to hold Zhang Xia's hand, and Chen Mo took Chen Chen's hand, and the two held their hands together.
"From now on, you will be a family. I have nothing to say. I just hope that your life can be as beautiful as flowers." Chen Mo handed the microphone to the host.
Next comes the stage of throwing the hydrangea.
Chen Chen cheated and the hydrangea directly hit Chen Mo in the face...
