Suddenly learning that Zhou Chen had started a company,
Sun Liancheng was indeed surprised, especially by Zhou Chen's ambition to expand the stinky tofu business, even going so far as to introduce a franchise model. It has to be said, he was very shrewd.
but,
He still doesn't have a good view on the stinky tofu snack business.
They believe that they can only make small money, and if they want to make big money, they have to go into real estate or import and export businesses.
He made some money in the stock market and then went to start a company, specifically a food company.
Sun Liancheng smiled and shook his head. He could only say that Zhou Chen was too young and too idealistic. How many of those rich people could become millionaires from a roadside stall business?
No!
At least Sun Liancheng had never seen or heard of him.
However, if Zhou Chen hits a wall and experiences failure, it might not be a bad thing. It would make him realize that starting a business is completely different from following someone else.
He could take the opportunity to bring Zhou Chen over then.
He had previously made a bet with Zhou Chen, which ended in defeat, and the bet that Zhou Chen would work under him was therefore void.
Sun Liancheng was not giving up and still wanted to turn Zhou Chen into his subordinate.
So, Zhou Chen's new venture might be a good opportunity. Should we take another gamble with Zhou Chen?
He should win easily.
"Dad, do you know? The stall owners who used to run other food businesses at the night market couldn't afford to switch to shops because of the night market's renovation, so they were all planning to change careers. He took the initiative to bring these people to run a stinky tofu business, and he didn't charge them a penny. Just as you said, he is a very loyal and righteous person."
Hearing his daughter Sun Wanying praise Zhou Chen's character, Sun Liancheng subconsciously stroked his chin and said proudly, "Your dad has a keen eye for people. He was able to give up his studies and work on construction sites with other graduates for three whole years, taking on the responsibility of being the eldest brother, all for the sake of his three siblings. That's enough to prove his character. It's just a pity that he has three ungrateful siblings..."
Even Sun Liancheng, an outsider, couldn't help but feel sorry for Zhou Chen when he mentioned those three women. In particular, the second sister, Zhou Ling, not only came to the construction site to smear Zhou Chen, but her in-laws also came to make trouble. They were all unreasonable.
"Dad, were his three siblings really that bad? What exactly did they do that was so outrageous?"
On the other end of the phone, Sun Wanying's curiosity was palpable.
"Of course it's excessive. Take his second sister, for example. She has excellent grades, but she's extremely indifferent to her older brother. She gets upset whenever other classmates mention Zhou Chen to his face... Uh..."
As Sun Liancheng was speaking, his voice suddenly stopped.
"Why are you so interested in his affairs, girl?"
Sun Liancheng noticed that his daughter couldn't stop talking about Zhou Chen today. Their conversation revolved entirely around Zhou Chen. In the past, his precious daughter rarely took the initiative to talk to him so much, especially about a stranger.
"Daughter, you haven't fallen for this boy, have you?"
"Furthermore, you're far away in Fengcheng, so how do you know so much about the stall owners who set up stalls with him, and even the secret that they didn't receive money?"
Sun Liancheng increasingly felt that his little darling had found someone she liked.
"It's not what you said. He and I are just ordinary friends. The reason I know him is because I helped him find a suitable shop and chatted with the people he sent..."
"What? You found him a shop? And you even received the people he sent?" Sun Liancheng was shocked. How come he knew nothing about these things?
"You silly girl, how many things are you hiding from me?"
"Dad, he begged me for help, so I... Dad, my boss is calling, I have to hang up!"
Before Sun Liancheng could get to the bottom of things, Sun Wanying quickly made up an excuse and hung up the phone immediately.
call……
After putting down her phone, Sun Wanying breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she had dodged quickly; otherwise, she would have had to keep explaining herself.
Knowing her father, Sun Liancheng, as she did, it was impossible for the matter to end without him explaining for at least ten minutes.
Most importantly, she and Zhou Chen are really just ordinary friends.
At most, it evokes some curiosity and some appreciation.
She thought this was normal; anyone who knew Zhou Chen's story would be curious.
Zhou Chen, who had just left the construction site on his bicycle, sneezed several times in a row.
My ears felt hot.
Zhou Chen looked suspicious, wondering who was talking about him. Could they be three ungrateful wretches?
Little did he know that at that moment, a father was feeling depressed, believing that he was about to take his daughter away.
That same evening, Zhou Chen received a call from Sun Liancheng, asking him to go to the construction site the next day.
"Mr. Sun, is there anything you need from me?"
On the phone, Sun Liancheng didn't say anything, only that he would talk when they met tomorrow.
Zhou Chen couldn't guess Sun Liancheng's purpose. He probably wanted to consult him about stocks or something else and wanted to hear his opinion.
Never mind.
Zhou Chen didn't bother to guess. He had a mock exam the day after tomorrow, and he needed to sharpen his gun until it was shiny and fast so that he could get good grades.
Zhou Na ranked seventh on the list last time, leaving him dozens of places behind.
This mock exam, while not guaranteeing an immediate catch-up, will at least significantly narrow the gap.
He clearly remembered his conversation with Zhou Na on the playground. Zhou Na had said that his return to school was a waste of time and a futile effort.
The best rebuttal is to prove her wrong with results, letting Zhou Na know that her assertion was a rash conclusion.
The outcome is still uncertain. I, Zhou Chen, may very well be a dark horse. You, Zhou Na, cannot predict other people's lives!
Nothing was said that night.
Zhou Chen had planned to meet Sun Liancheng at noon.
However, after receiving a text message from Zhang Dafu, I had to postpone it and apologize to Sun Liancheng for having to break our appointment today.
Because the business license and company registration documents have all been issued.
The speed was so fast that even Zhou Chen didn't expect it. He was able to get his hands on it in just a few days, which was a pleasant surprise.
As long as you have all the necessary documents,
People like Zhang Dafu, who were among the first to join Zhou Chen's team, can officially sign franchise agreements and then begin their own path to making money by setting up stalls in their respective areas.
As they emerged from the office building, Zhou Chen and Zhang Dafu exchanged a smile, looking at the file folders in their hands. Their business was about to take off.
Both Zhou Chen and Zhang Dafu were already impatient.
"Brother Zhang, today is a good day. Call everyone over tonight, and we'll celebrate after we sign the contract."
"No problem, leave this to me."
Lunch break was short, so I waved goodbye to Zhang Dafu.
Riding her bicycle back to school, with a gentle breeze whistling past her ears, Zhou Chen felt that everything before her was so beautiful and delightful.
His life has undergone earth-shattering changes compared to his previous life.
