"What!"
Startled, Lu Yiming jumped up from the sofa.
"What did you say! How did you do that! You're not kidding me, are you?!"
"This is the letter of intent for the contract. I've already discussed it with President Chen and the others," Mu Xia said, even sounding somewhat guilty.
"According to our original estimate, we should have been able to acquire it directly for around 70 million."
But I'm worried that if we ask for something too urgently, it will be bad if the other party refuses to compromise.
So they ended up wasting ten million yuan.
"Chairman, if you think this price is too high, then I'll go and look at other shops."
Upon hearing Mu Xia's words, Lu Yiming's pupils dilated in shock. He snatched the letter of intent and solemnly said:
"Mu Xia! No need! Eighty million it is! We've made a killing this time!"
Holy crap!
Mu Xia, I've only been away from you for a few minutes.
You're causing trouble for me again, aren't you!
I asked for 150 million, and you bargained it down to 80 million!
I could have lost a whopping 80 million!
You've ruined everything!
Lu Yiming finally understood: he absolutely couldn't let Mu Xia cause any more trouble!
If we let Mu Xia negotiate again, we might be able to get the price down!
Eighty million it is!
To avoid any unforeseen complications!
Lu Yiming launched himself into the air and headed back to sign the contract!
...
A few minutes later.
Lu Yiming returned to the conference room.
Mr. Chen and the real estate development group's professional team have already drafted the contract.
Lu Yiming signed his name with a flourish and extended his hand to President Chen.
"Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry, my secretary was ignorant and made you make such a huge concession."
My conscience is really bothering me!
Or, how about I give you some extra signing bonus or something?
Lu Yiming was still trying to lose even more money.
Mr. Chen was tempted, and was about to say, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
Then he felt that murderous gaze suddenly focus on him from beside Lu Yiming!
Startled, President Chen grabbed Lu Yiming's hand and quickly refused, saying:
"Chairman Lu, that's enough, our company is very satisfied with this price!"
"A signing fee like that is too kind of you; our company cannot accept it!"
"You...sigh." Lu Yiming said helplessly:
"Then we'll have the opportunity to work together again."
"Absolutely! Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I'll get the business vacated within three days."
As he walked out of the company building, Mr. Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and with lingering fear, looked back at Lu Yiming's company building, muttering to himself:
"Lu Yiming is really lucky to be able to recruit such a talent."
If I had a top-notch secretary like that, I could just lie there counting money all day long…
...
[Ding! You've already lost 14 million yuan by buying four stores at a premium! Now we're giving you a tenfold refund!]
[Ding! 140 million yuan has been deposited into your private account!]
You currently possess assets of 1.9064 billion yuan.
A dozen minutes later, Lu Yiming and his group arrived at those shops.
Those shops are all located in the shopping mall with the highest foot traffic, and it's almost lunchtime now, so the mall is already packed with people.
Even Lu Yiming and his group had to wait in line outside for their number to be called if they wanted to go in and order food.
"Chairman, how are these shops? They're all connected, just as you requested, so they should be able to meet our employees' dining needs," Mu Xia asked from the side.
"Hmm...it's alright, but there are just too many people," Lu Yiming said, shaking his head.
"The shopping malls in this area always have a lot of foot traffic, which is unavoidable."
This is also an advantage.
In addition to providing meals for our own employees, we can also provide catering services to employees of other companies.
By protecting the interests of our employees, we can also generate a substantial monthly revenue, thus maximizing our profits.
"Wow! What a great shop! So much foot traffic!"
"Wow, the rent must be at least several hundred thousand a month, right?"
"So many people? How long will we have to wait in line to get a meal?!"
...
Viewers in the live stream chat flooded the screen with comments.
"No way." Lu Yiming directly rejected Mu Xia's suggestion, pointing to the long queue, and said:
"With so many customers, once it's mealtime, can we still prioritize serving our employees?"
"Hmm... we can have the restaurant prepare the food in advance and then pack it up and deliver it to our company, which would solve the problem by avoiding dine-in service," Mu Xia said, her eyes darting around.
"What's the difference between that and ordering food?" Lu Yiming asked back.
Mu Xia was stunned.
yes!
In the end, all that effort has been wasted, and things have come full circle!
"In modern society, too many people suffer from stomach problems."
The biggest reason is that I didn't eat properly.
I often eat a few bites hastily because of work, which puts a huge burden on my stomach.
My initial intention in opening the staff canteen was very simple: not to make a profit, but simply to provide employees with a peaceful, relaxed dining environment where they could eat in peace.
"If I can't achieve this goal, I'd rather not open this staff canteen at all!" Lu Yiming said firmly at the end.
Mu Xia was completely stunned.
"Waqu! Lu Yiming! Are you serious?! Giving up this amazing shop that makes millions every month, you're really going to run a dedicated employee cafeteria?"
