Counterflow 92: Ditching the School Flower at the Start and Building a Trillion Empire

In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.

He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...

Chapter 121 Quality Control Upgrade (3): Free Takeout Delivery in the City

After the quality control upgrade, a Mixue Ice Cream store needs to install air conditioning, purchase a refrigerator, and install a TV and telephone.

Thirty thousand yuan is not enough to open a Mixue Ice Cream shop, but Lin Yifeng still has funds on hand. With the revenue from six Wallace shops and one Mixue Ice Cream shop, Lin Yifeng can open another one before graduation.

By then, the six Wallace stores and three Mixue Ice Cream stores should be Lin Yifeng's achievements before graduation.

"From being reborn in March to graduating in June, I built 9 stores in three months."

As a reborn person, I've done a so-so job.

Starting from scratch, he built 9 stores.

The results were only average, nothing to brag about for those who have been reborn.

"Once Guo Fengsheng has written out the membership system, let him supervise the implementation of the air conditioning project."

"It's almost the end of May, and the weather is starting to get hot. Without air conditioning, diners are less willing to eat in."

In late May, the weather in Zhongyuan Province had already started to get hot, and Lin Yifeng had noticed that he had trouble sleeping at night.

It's hot and there are lots of mosquitoes.

Lin Yifeng really doesn't know how he got through the past. Now, it seems like he can't sleep without air conditioning.

...

Guo Fengsheng began to formulate a membership system. He knew nothing about memberships and could only bite the bullet and try to figure it out as he went.

Lin Yifeng, who had been attending classes diligently for several days, asked for leave again.

This time, Lin Yifeng went to look at houses.

Lin Yifeng took a fancy to an old, run-down house.

This old, dilapidated apartment is about 80 square meters, with a price of just over 200 yuan per square meter. The owner is an elderly woman whose husband has passed away, and her children live in Shangdu, the provincial capital.

The old lady had been living alone in this house, but in recent years her health had deteriorated. Her sons insisted on taking her to the provincial transportation hub to be cared for, but the old lady was unwilling. So her eldest son took drastic measures and sold the old lady's house.

The old, small apartment is on the second floor, facing east. The room is simply painted white, but it is very clean, and there are several potted plants on the balcony.

Judging from the style and layout of the room, this old lady is either a university professor or a rich heiress.

They certainly won't be ordinary citizens.

"Comrade Xiaolin, this room is yours."

The person who received Lin Yifeng was the old lady's eldest son. Judging from his words and actions, he should hold an important position in the provincial capital, Shangdu.

"To be honest, I really don't want to sell this house. It holds so many memories for me."

“This house is my mother’s lifeline, but there’s no other way. My mother is in poor health and needs someone to take care of her. But she doesn’t want to come to Shangdu, so this is the only solution I have.”

Lin Yifeng listened to these words with a smile, but he couldn't respond, so he could only remain silent.

The old lady's son rounded down the price to 17,863 yuan, and Lin Yifeng gave him 17,800 yuan to take over the old, dilapidated apartment.

Sign the contract, affix the seal, and receive the property ownership certificate.

Lin Yifeng saw the old lady's eldest son off with a smile, and only then did he have time to admire his first house in this life.

Actually, there's nothing to appreciate about it.

It's a small, old, and dilapidated apartment that's simply painted white, with a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, a master bedroom, a second bedroom, and a balcony.

The living room is very small, only about ten square meters.

The master bedroom is quite large, about 20 square meters. The old lady placed the dining table in the master bedroom, which took up a lot of space.

As for the toilets and kitchen.

The toilet was pitifully small, probably only a meter square, with a squat toilet and a small faucet, barely enough to take a cold shower.

If you want to take a hot shower, you'll need to boil the water yourself.

"It's really old and dilapidated, but I don't plan to live here much."

The significance of this old, dilapidated house to Lin Yifeng was probably that it was a safe. Lin Yifeng planned to have Xu Qingyi and Xu Wanxia, ​​the siblings, live here in the future, and he would store the safe in a hidden place.

Standing in his first house, Lin Yifeng began to plan his next move.

First, we need to upgrade Wallace's quality control. We'll check Guo Fengsheng's membership system tomorrow and make some changes accordingly.

Then, Lin Yifeng prepared to gather Gangzi, Wang Sande, Wang Zhaowu and others to launch the food delivery system.

In later generations, this was all too common outside.

Initially, it was Meituan battling Ele.me, and later JD.com launched its own food delivery service, which then battled Meituan.

Taobao also joined the fray, and in 2025, the food delivery app war truly delighted many users and delivery riders.

But these days, there's no such thing as "outside," and even the courier system is still underdeveloped.

Lin Yifeng plans to launch the food delivery system ahead of schedule. He is not planning to develop a food delivery app, but rather to further improve Wallace's quality control.

In this day and age, if you want to order takeout, the first thing you need is a phone.

This directly eliminated the vast majority of people.

Therefore, food delivery services in this era are for the wealthy.

Lin Yifeng stayed in his first apartment for less than ten minutes before locking the door and leaving.

He first rode his old bicycle, which he had bought a few days ago, to Wallace and then called Xu Wanxia out.

"Sunset!"

"Boss, did you call me?"

When Xu Wanxia heard Lin Yifeng calling her, she ran out of the store. She was wearing a pink short-sleeved shirt and had a big bun on her head, looking pure and cute.

"Tell your brother to tidy up the house you're renting these next few days."

“I bought a new house. You and your brother can move in here in the next few days.”
