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...
Bai Yejin's eyes held an extremely complex expression.
A few days ago, she only had 41 cents left. She gave Lin Yifeng 20 cents to buy steamed buns, leaving her with only 21 cents. She needed to make it until the end of the month.
Currently, 6741.8 yuan has passed through her hands.
Bai Yejin wasn't someone who cared much about money; otherwise, she wouldn't have given Lin Yifeng 2 mao without hesitation when she only had 4 mao 1.
But now, she, who doesn't care about money, has been severely provoked.
From initial excitement to shock, and then to numbness, Bai Yejin felt that her worldview had been shattered by money.
The Xu siblings were even worse than Bai Yejin; they looked at the stacks of money on the ground and laughed and cried at the same time.
Only Lin Yifeng's expression remained unchanged, as if the pile of money on the ground wasn't 6741.8 but 6 yuan.
"It's alright, more than I expected!"
Lin Yifeng estimated that Wallace's sales on the first day would be around 4,000, but he underestimated the seller's market, which caused Wallace's revenue to far exceed his expectations.
Slightly squatting down, Lin Yifeng picked up the 6741.8 yuan from the ground, looked at the three people with different emotions, and smiled: "It's time to give you your money."
"Give me money?"
Bai Yejin was taken aback at first, then she frowned slightly, a little unhappy: "Lin Yifeng, you promised to help. If you give me money, I'll get angry."
"When a friend comes to help, shouldn't you treat them to a meal or give them a pack of cigarettes?"
Lin Yifeng smiled and took out a 50-yuan note, handing it to Bai Yejin.
He didn't give much.
Bai Yejin did not answer.
Helping is helping; if money is involved, then it's no longer helping.
She couldn't accept the money, no matter how much or how little.
However, when Bai Yejin saw Lin Yifeng holding up the money, for some reason, she suddenly remembered what had happened half a month ago.
Two weeks ago, she held up a Coca-Cola and offered it to Lin Yifeng in the same way.
Bai Yejin smiled.
That smile made even the most beautiful women in the imperial harem pale in comparison.
"Lin Yifeng!"
Bai Yejin said, "I want to drink mutton soup."
"Lin Yifeng!"
Bai Yejin then said, "Please treat me to another bowl of mutton soup."
Bai Yejin took out 1.2 yuan, waved it around, and put it in her pocket.
Of the 6741.8 yuan, Bai Yejin received 1.2 yuan.
Lin Yifeng continued to take money, intending to distribute it to Xu Qingyi and Xu Wanxia, a brother and sister.
"Boss, you've already paid in advance."
Xu Qingyi also refused to share the money, for reasons different from Bai Yejin's.
"Take it!"
Lin Yifeng's gaze swept over the bloodstains on Xu Qingyi's forehead and the blisters on Xu Wanxia's scalded hands.
"We don't play those empty, grandiose games."
"You do things for me, I'll pay you, it's that simple!"
Lin Yifeng handed Xu Qingyi 54.11 yuan, and also handed Xu Wanxia 54.11 yuan.
This amount represents 1% of Wallace's net earnings for today.
Xu Qingyi remained unmoved, but Lin Yifeng was much less polite with him. He simply stuffed the money into Xu Qingyi's pocket and kicked him.
"I'll give you and your sister 1% of the store's net profit. You two better do a good job."
"Thank you, thank you, boss!"
Wallace invested nearly 10,000 yuan and recouped more than half of his investment on the first day. Lin Yifeng originally wanted to leave the money in Wallace's shop, but after thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate and decided to carry it with him.
He will deposit some of the money at the bank tomorrow.
Wallace has closed down.
This time it was truly closed. Xu Qingyi locked Wallace's door with a lock, then, after saying goodbye to Lin Yifeng and Bai Yejin, she and her sister Xu Wanxia disappeared into the night.
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
"Especially today, you haven't rested at all today."
"Oh, Lin Yifeng, your politeness makes us seem like strangers."
Bai Yejin disliked Lin Yifeng's polite conversation. Wearing nude-colored pointed shoes, she hopped and skipped, becoming excited again.
"Lin Yifeng!"
"Can we still earn this much tomorrow?"
"What are you thinking about!"
Lin Yifeng tapped Bai Yejin on the head: "We prepared a lot of ingredients in advance for today's opening, and with the help of the publicity, we made such a good profit."
"Tomorrow's foot traffic will definitely not be as high as today's. After a while, it would be good if we could make a stable income of one or two thousand a day."
Wallace is now considered a "light luxury" brand. When it first opened, people would line up to buy it to try it out. But after a while, once the hype died down, the number of customers naturally decreased.
And most importantly.
Wallace doesn't have much "technical content".
In later generations, there were countless fried chicken and hamburger shops, and even a simple online search will yield countless tutorials on how to make fried chicken and hamburgers.
With Wallace's opening and such an exaggerated number of customers on the first day, it's natural that others will follow suit.
Just like the ring toss game at Jinyang Park.
Lin Yifeng had no doubt that a month later, no, even half a month later, a second "Wallace" would definitely appear in Muye City to compete for the fried chicken and hamburger market.
"We must seize this opportunity to make Wallace's brand a household name!"
...
The following day, the number of visitors indeed dropped significantly.
Bai Yejin, Xu Qingyi, and Xu Wanxia stayed at Wallace's, while Lin Yifeng went to the newspaper office.
On May 1, 1995, the country officially changed the single-day weekend to a two-day weekend.
However, in 1992, state public officials, including workers, were only allowed one day off.
