The appearance of the master and apprentice attracted everyone's attention.
Without further ado, Xu Laoqi directly stated Zhou Chen's idea: to join the stinky tofu business and help the group find a new way to make a living.
Ma Shan and the others all looked astonished.
This was something they never expected; Zhou Chen was actually willing to mentor them for free, without even asking for a franchise fee.
They knew about the stinky tofu business.
From the moment the franchise was launched, word spread throughout the construction site, and many people marveled at Zhou Chen's abilities, hoping that he would expand and strengthen the business.
Now, I never expected to have the opportunity to become a member of the franchise and to do business with Zhou Chen in the future.
"While I can't guarantee that running a stinky tofu business will make you rich, it certainly won't be less profitable than working on a construction site."
"Fellow workers, if you're willing, you're welcome to join us and make money together."
Zhou Chen smiled.
Zhang Dafu and the others who used to set up stalls together didn't ask for franchise fees. Naturally, he wouldn't ask for anything from his fellow workers on the construction site either. He didn't mind helping them out, as it was within his means.
Moreover, once people like Ma Shan get started, they can make money through sauces and other ingredients; the only difference is that there's no franchise fee.
"I do."
"I'm willing too."
"Brother Zhou, we'll work for you from now on."
Ma Shan was the first to speak, and the others nodded in agreement, their heads bobbing like rattles.
They've all witnessed how good the stinky tofu business was. It was incredibly popular at first, but then it suddenly disappeared due to smear campaigns and rumors. But now, it's not only back to normal, but it's even more popular than before, with people from other places coming specifically to eat it.
Most importantly, there is a living example of Xu Dalong. As Xu Laoqi's nephew, everyone knows Xu Dalong. A few months ago, Xu Laoqi was still worried about Xu Dalong's future, fearing that the construction site would not accept him. But since he started doing stinky tofu business with Zhou Chen, Xu Dalong has changed a lot.
He dressed better and better, and every time he came to visit Xu Laoqi at the construction site, he would bring a lot of things. In addition, Xu Dalong would send more than a thousand yuan home every month. Xu Laoqi was full of pride when he talked about this.
Seeing that everyone was willing to follow suit,
Xu Laoqi and Zhou Chen exchanged a smile.
the next day,
Ma Shan and the others immediately began learning how to make stinky tofu. Xu Dalong took the initiative to teach them, helping them master the skills as quickly as possible.
In the blink of an eye,
Ma Shan and others learned the process of making stinky tofu and prepared to return to their respective towns to set up stalls and do business in front of their homes.
Everyone is full of motivation and anticipation for the future.
This incident naturally spread throughout the construction site and became known to many people.
Almost everyone admired Zhou Chen and gave him a thumbs up, because no one could guarantee that they wouldn't suddenly get injured like Ma Shan and the others in the future. At that time, they might also need Zhou Chen's help and follow him in business.
Therefore, whenever Zhou Chen came to the construction site, he was always greeted with a smile and warm welcome.
Zhou Chen has become a celebrity on the construction site.
"You don't charge them franchise fees, you help them make money for free. It's their good fortune to know you."
Inside the office,
Sun Liancheng was becoming increasingly satisfied with Zhou Chen, his future son-in-law, and he was not blinded by money, which suited him very well.
He had actually considered the injured worker's future placement beforehand.
But he was somewhat helpless. Although he was the site leader and held great power, he didn't have a good solution for the injured employees who couldn't stay on the site.
He can introduce a job to one person, but he can't introduce a job to everyone who leaves the construction site.
Besides, not everyone knows how to be grateful.
There are also plenty of ungrateful people on the construction site.
"However, I must remind you that it's good to do good deeds, but it's best to help those who deserve it."
Not wanting Zhou Chen to suffer a great loss because of helping others, Sun Liancheng suddenly said in a serious tone.
“Uncle Sun, I understand the story of the farmer and the snake. I won’t help everyone without limits.” Zhou Chen nodded, understanding Sun Liancheng’s meaning.
He had long seen ingrates and knew that some people, perhaps because he had opened up a business opportunity for Ma Shan and others without charging them, wanted to join in.
He had considered this possibility when he first had the idea of helping Ma Shan and the others.
He naturally had a way to deal with it. First of all, the people on the construction site who wanted to do business with him had to be injured on the job and have good character and integrity. He had been in contact with Ma Shan and others for a while and knew what kind of people they were, so he wasn't worried about that. Moreover, there was a contract in place to bind them.
Seeing that Zhou Chen was clear-headed, Sun Liancheng nodded secretly, then brought up the matter of Zhou Chen opening a company in Yanjing, wanting to know some of Zhou Chen's plans.
Zhou Chen gave a brief explanation, without hiding anything, stating frankly that his first project was making games.
game?
Sun Liancheng paused for a moment. Although his eyes didn't say it explicitly, it was clear that he wasn't particularly optimistic about Zhou Chen starting out with games.
"In this field, besides technical talent, you also need enough creativity. If you're a newcomer and want to make money in games, you need to be mentally prepared."
"Most importantly, the game is very expensive, and there is a possibility of losing everything."
Sun Liancheng did not discourage Zhou Chen, but instead offered a kind reminder.
Even he wouldn't dare to try it, and could only stick to his expertise in the real estate field. Zhou Chen, a high school student, dared to start making games right away, which was truly incredibly daring.
Zhou Chen smiled, offering no explanation or grand pronouncements.
These things are meaningless until you succeed; only by achieving results will people take notice.
