Chapter 302 Start preparing for the second Internet cafe
In the next few days, the funds agreed to buy shares and borrowed money were handed over to Mr. Xu one after another.
Zheng Qing's 50,000 shares, Ge Liangcai's 20,000 shares, and Tanya's 5,000 shares, plus the 5,000 shares that Xu Tonglin gave Xu Tongdao before.
Here it is 80,000.
After saying they wanted to invest in shares, only Ge Lianghua and Feng Qinghua's 30,000 yuan had not yet been cashed in.
Ge Lianghua also explained the reason to Comrade Xu in private.
The main reason is that the money given to him by Ge Lianghua's family for his marriage has not yet been given to Ge Lianghua and Feng Qinghua.
Comrade Xu was not in a hurry about this.
Because in addition to the 30,000 yuan that Ge Lianghua planned to invest in, all the funds that were recently promised to be lent to him have also arrived.
The eldest cousin Wu Changxing gave 10,000 yuan, the eldest cousin Wu Jing gave 5,000 yuan, and Wu Yali promised 10,000 yuan.
The total of these three loans is 25,000.
In addition to the 30,000 that he, Comrade Xu, recently saved, the total is more than 50,000.
This more than 50,000 yuan was regarded as the capital for Comrade Xu to open his second Internet cafe. Counting the 80,000 yuan in stock capital that had already been received, the total amount was more than 130,000 yuan.
This amount of money is enough for him to officially prepare a second Internet cafe.
As for the 30,000 yuan that Ge Lianghua and Feng Qinghua plan to invest in, they can wait for their funds to arrive while preparing for the second Internet cafe.
Even if the last 30,000 yuan from these two people ended up being wasted and could not be paid, the current 130,000 yuan is enough to open a small Internet cafe.
To be honest, Xu Tongdao's heart was a little complicated because the amount of shares purchased was so much more than Xu Tongdao's principal.
Because this means that even if a second Internet cafe is opened, most of the profits will not belong to him.
He thought about whether he should think of another way and borrow tens of thousands more yuan to count as his principal.
After hesitating for two days, he gave up the idea.
It's just that the profit of an Internet cafe is divided a little more.
Compared with other shareholders, Xu Tongdao is still the largest shareholder of this second Internet cafe. The share purchase agreement he wrote to other shareholders also stated that the management rights of the Internet cafe belong to him. This is enough.
When the second Internet cafe is successfully run and these shareholders receive dividends, they will have more trust in Comrade Xu's ability to make money.
By then, the difficulty of raising funds for him to open a third Internet cafe will naturally be greatly reduced.
When the third Internet cafe raises funds, he will not allow other people to invest in the shares, and will only charge three-cent interest on the loan.
By then, these people who have no hope of investing in shares may not be able to resist the temptation of a three-cent dividend.
Maybe they didn't have much money to borrow, but with the profit and the temptation of three cents interest, they would naturally find ways to raise funds to lend to him, Tongdao Xu.
…
Comrade Xu had a clear idea and did not waste time.
It took two days to rent a large warehouse on the street at the back entrance of Shui Niao University, and then informed my cousin Wu Changxing to bring people to the warehouse to make necessary decorations.
The rent of a warehouse is half cheaper than that of a regular shop.
For the same rent, you can rent a larger area.
Apart from the location not being on the main street, there are no other drawbacks.
Internet cafes are an emerging industry these days, and they are so attractive to young people. Xu Tongdao doesn't care at all about opening an Internet cafe in a remote place, as long as it is close enough to Shuidiao University.
As for why he opened the second Internet cafe near Mizutori University?
The reason is also very simple.
Currently, there are universities majoring in computer science in Shuiniao City, including Naval Normal University and Shuiniao University.
His first Internet cafe has been opened near the Naval Normal University, and it is naturally the best choice to open his second Internet cafe near the Naval University.
Otherwise, would it still be open near the Naval University?
What’s the point of competing with yourself?
Comrade Xu is not Zhou Botong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so what kind of fight is he playing?
The second Internet cafe is being renovated, and Xu Tongdao is in no hurry to buy a computer.
He copied an operation he had done before when he opened his first Internet cafe.
——In the computer department of Shuidiao University, I found a computer teacher who was famous for his skills. It took him two days to contact and negotiate with the teacher named Tan Jian, and finally signed an employment agreement with Tan Jian.
Hire this person to be the technical consultant for his second Internet cafe.
Before preparing to contact this person, Xu Tongdao had not thought of continuing to use Dai Yang as the technical consultant of his second Internet cafe.
After all, Dai Yang's computer skills are quite good. From the preparation to the opening of the Ximendao Internet Cafe, he has not encountered any technical problems that Dai Yang cannot solve.
As the old saying goes: Use people who are familiar with them and don’t use them raw.
Logically speaking, it would be the best choice for him, Comrade Xu, to open a second Internet cafe and continue to hire Dai Yang as a technical consultant.
Anyway, Dai Yang's usual teaching tasks at the Naval University are not heavy. He has plenty of free time, and Dai Yang also has many students who can work part-time as network administrators.
In terms of manpower, we can also take care of two Internet cafes.
However, Tongdao Xu finally decided to find another technical consultant at Shuidiao University.
He had several considerations.
First of all, the second Internet cafe is opened next to Shuitiao University. If you find a technical consultant here, it will definitely be more convenient than Dai Yang to come to the Internet cafe.
Secondly, we can also copy the early publicity strategy of the Ximen Road Internet Cafe - first attract computer science students from Water Bird University to become regular visitors to the Internet cafe, and also help distribute leaflets to computer science students from Water Bird University, etc.
Again, this is to prevent problems before they occur.
If both Internet cafes use Dai Yang as a technical consultant, if Dai Yang suddenly takes a leave of absence or suddenly resigns, where can Comrade Xu find a suitable technical consultant to ensure the normal operation of the two Internet cafes?
Therefore, it is necessary to find another technical consultant.
Even if one of the technical consultants takes a temporary leave or resigns suddenly, the other technical consultant can temporarily take care of another Internet cafe.
Just think of it as not putting all your eggs in one basket!
…
The technical issues have been resolved.
We still need a cashier.
It was simple. Xu Tongdao posted a few recruitment notices near Water Bird University, and within two days, he recruited a young man with a high school degree.
During the interview, Comrade Xu asked him if he knew how to use a computer.
The young man named Wang Yi shook his head, "No! I haven't learned it."
After saying that, Wang Yi sighed, turned around and wanted to leave.
I thought I must have failed in this application.
But Tongdao Xu stopped him, "It's okay if you don't know how to use computers. I can have someone train you. But in this case, your salary during the probation period will only be two hundred. Do you think about it?"
"ah?"
Wang Yi was stunned for a moment, with a surprised expression.
He didn't even know who the network administrator was being recruited here. He thought he was an administrator who managed some kind of fishing net. After all, he thought this place was a warehouse.
Therefore, when Comrade Xu asked him if he knew how to use a computer just now, he thought that he had no chance of applying for this job.
As a result, it’s okay even if you don’t know how to use a computer?
Then you just asked me if I knew how to use a computer?
