Chapter 501 Investing in You
Qin Ce grabbed Linlin and started walking out. Linlin was a little afraid of him, so she didn't dare to resist. She followed behind him with a droopy little face, and kept turning back to look at Qiao Xing.
He preferred Qiao Xing to deliver the package rather than Qin Ce.
Unfortunately, Qiao Xing simply raised her hand, smiled, and waved goodbye to him.
"Get in the car."
Linlin glanced timidly at Qin Ce, silently got into the car, and obediently fastened her seatbelt.
Qin Ce went around to the driver's seat and drove to find Wang Ye.
I originally wanted to have someone deliver it, but Linlin is so young, I'm still a little worried. If something were to happen, it would be hard to explain to Qiao Xing.
Today is Saturday, and Wang Ye is very busy with his business. When Qin Ce brought Linlin there, his place was still packed with people, seemingly even more than before.
Wang Ye is finding it a bit too much to handle on his own.
Seeing Qin Ce arrive, Wang Ye was somewhat surprised, "Why are you here?"
"I'll bring your child over."
Wang Ye looked down and saw that Linlin was not happy, but he didn't have time to coax him now, and he still had to order him around. "Linlin, come and take this to table number five."
Linlin obediently took the tray and, with her short legs, easily found table number five.
Even Qin Ce was somewhat surprised by the child's actions.
He was about to leave, but then he stopped. "Why don't you hire someone?"
"I don't have the money. Hiring someone would cost several thousand, but I only earn a little over 20,000 a month. When business is bad, it's only a little over 10,000. It's not worth it."
"And don't let my busy schedule fool you, I only get a lot of customers on weekends. I can manage on my own during the week."
Qin Ce said, "There's a university right in front of you. How much money could you spend to find a temporary or part-time job?"
Wang Ye's hand, which was grilling, suddenly paused, and he looked abruptly at Qin Ce. "Hey, how come I didn't think of that?"
"Then I need to calculate how much money I'll have to spend if I hire part-time workers."
Wang Ye wasn't very good at math, and he spent a long time calculating but still couldn't figure it out.
Qin Ce said from the side, "It's 20 yuan an hour. If you work seven hours at night, it's 140 yuan. Two days is 280 yuan. Four weekends a month is about 1100 yuan."
"Isn't it two hundred yuan a day?"
"Two hundred a day is one thousand six hundred a month. Even if you calculate it by the hour, people will come. A large part of university life here only has about two thousand a month for living expenses."
"You know all this?"
Qin Ce looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Wang Ye suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten this person's identity and that he definitely knew far more information than he did.
"Okay, I got it. I'll put up a job posting tomorrow and hire a part-time person."
He is indeed quite busy on weekends, and almost every weekend, so hiring someone to do weekend chores is definitely a good deal for him.
"I'm leaving." Qin Ce said this and turned to leave.
Wang Ye suddenly called out to him, "Wait a minute, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Qin Ce raised his hand and glanced at his watch. "It's eleven o'clock."
"Oh, then you can go."
Qin Ce seemed to remember something again. He took two steps and turned back. "Qiao Xing said you're going to open a shop?"
"Yes, but it's still early. I haven't saved enough money yet."
Qin Ce said, "I'll invest in you, and you can open it. Do you have the experience?"
Wang Ye was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qin Ce in surprise, "Really?"
Qin Ce stared at him with a serious expression. "Of course it's true, but you need to write a detailed market research report and a project plan for me. If it's feasible, I'll invest in you."
"You invest in me, you become the boss, and I work for you?"
Qin Ce sighed, suddenly realizing that he had been a bit hasty in saying he would invest in him.
"Go back and research the meaning of investment first, then come back to me."
Wang Ye scratched his head in confusion, not yet understanding Qin Ce's meaning, before he had already left.
But judging from Qin Ce's reaction, it seems like I said something wrong?
However, he's a bit busy right now and doesn't have time to think about it. But if Qin Ce is willing to invest, he definitely won't miss this opportunity. He'll have to talk to Bai Yi about it later.
Bai Yi probably knows more about this.
Qin Ce wasn't really thinking of him; it was just that Qiao Xing seemed genuinely bored and had brought Linlin over to play.
Wang Ye's place is too far away, making it inconvenient for her to travel back and forth. If Wang Ye opened a shop closer to her, she wouldn't have to travel back and forth, and she could even go to the shop to help out and pass the time when she's bored.
Setting a threshold for opening a store will at least prevent the customers from being as mixed as they are here.
Otherwise, Qin Ce wouldn't have brought this up earlier; he never likes to meddle in other people's business.
When Qin Ce returned, it was already midnight, and Qiao Xing had gone to bed early.
Qiao Xing didn't even open his eyes when he lay in bed.
Qin Ce was still thinking about her words from this morning that she would talk about it tonight, and now it's so late.
He could only sigh and turn off the light.
Ever since Qin Ce said he would invest in Wang Ye, Wang Ye didn't even deliver food the next day. He stayed at home researching, but after a long time he was completely confused and found nothing.
He scratched his head in frustration, but finally made a phone call to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi was also very busy. After the call connected, she simply said, "What is it?"
Hearing this tone, Wang Ye didn't dare to waste any words and simply told her what had happened.
Bai Yi asked, "Can you write a proposal?"
"……Won't."
"Have you done any market research? For example, if you want to open a shop in a certain area, which restaurants are there in that area? Which restaurants are doing well? What are the reasons for the poor performance of the restaurants? What makes the successful ones special?"
"And do you know about their prices, the good and bad businesses, and how their food tastes?"
Wang Ye stared blankly. He listened for a long time and understood what was being said, but he didn't know there were so many intricacies involved.
"Not yet. I don't have time to investigate these things. I'm already busy delivering food all day."
"I was planning to open the store in two years, but who knew he would suddenly say he wanted to invest in me? Do you think I can do it?"
Bai Yi said, "Why can't you do it? Someone is paying you. Do you really want to do it step by step on your own?"
"Right, I think so too. Okay, I'll go out and do some market research as you suggested later."
“Take good care of Linlin. This is not something that can be done in a short time. Take your time and investigate thoroughly before making any decisions. Otherwise, even if he invests in you and the store is opened but doesn't perform well, you may never be able to get his investment again.”
"I understand, I understand." Wang Ye nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
He was someone who had been through the harsh realities of society, so he naturally knew that even the best relationships couldn't withstand the test of time.
Since Qin Ce took the initiative to speak up this time, he should do an even better job. If he does a good job, this will be the first step for him to rise to prominence and cross social classes.
If you don't do a good job, you might fall even further behind in the future.
