Chapter 120
After dinner, Artonis took Green to the office of the yogurt shop, printed out the agreement, handed it to him for review, and sat behind the desk, waiting for Green to finish reading it.
"Any other questions?"
Artonis asked.
"Why did you choose me? I just bought the milk tea shop today, and I don't look like I have money at all. I have no employees, no experience, and no preparation."
Green was a little confused.
"I chose you because I like you and want to be friends with you. If my friends have money, people will think I have good taste.
There are few people in the world who are richer than me, so I want to give you some money to make our status more equal.
I'm sorry, I didn't choose you because of your professionalism.
But I think that most people like money. You opened a store to make money, and you should also make money by cooperating with me. As long as you can make money, the reason for choosing is not important.
As long as the result is good, that's enough."
Artonis shook his head.
"Okay, then what do you think is profitable?"
Green smiled and asked.
"Even if you start decorating your store right away, you can't open it until tomorrow.
Our seven-day cooperation agreement will end from next Monday to the second Monday.
You just have to guarantee that you won't lose money during this period.
After all, the first thing to do in business is to break even, and then you can make money.
So for our first agreement cooperation, let's set a goal of breaking even.
If we can't even achieve such a simple goal, then there is really no need for us to continue our cooperation.
If we can achieve this small goal, then set other goals and continue to achieve them, others won't say that we are too ambitious, and it will benefit both you and me.
What do you think?"
Artonis thought for a while and asked.
"Well, if my store doesn't make a loss, then it shouldn't be counted as my loss. If so, your store cooperates with me, but you make a loss while I make a profit, who should be blamed?"
Green asked.
"You are right, this is a question that needs to be considered.
But we are cooperating, not merging, so there is no need to worry so much. You guarantee that your store does not make a loss, and even if I make a loss, it cannot be blamed on you. That's good.
If you make a profit and my store loses money, then there is something wrong with my store, and it has nothing to do with our cooperation. I will find a way to rectify this store until it makes a profit.
If I can't think of a way, I will ask you for help, but that requires signing another agreement, so we will talk about it then."
Atonis thought for a while and answered.
"If we have to sign other new agreements after completing this agreement, should we record the sales during this period?
This will make it easier to confirm the average daily normal sales, so that we can better determine whether it is a loss or a profit in the future cooperation.
It will also be easier to determine other goals in the subsequent agreements.
What do you think?"
Green asked.
"Okay."
Atonis nodded.
The two confirmed the details and signed the agreement.
"Will you be around in the next few days?"
Green asked.
"I just came here to see the store opening today, so I will be leaving soon. Signing this agreement with you is already a surprise, and I'm afraid I can't stay around any longer."
Atonis said.
"Then if I complete the goal of this agreement and we have to re-sign the agreement, will you show up?"
Green asked with a smile.
"Of course, my friend. I really want to see you, so I will definitely come. If you can achieve the goal of that agreement, even if I don't want to come, my wallet will let me come."
Artonis replied with a smile.
"Besides, with you here, I will not not come."
Artonis said with a smile.
Green nodded.
Artonis answered a phone call and said sorry, he was leaving now. After Green sent him out, he returned to his milk tea shop.
He found a decoration company team to come and redecorate the entire store, and hired a cleaning company team to clean the entire store.
There are no cockroaches or rats, it is very clean, very normal, and very ventilated.
After that, he began to purchase materials and apply for some other certificates required for opening the business.
After preparing some regular ingredients for milk tea shops, Green tried to make it according to the ingredient list and production process on the Internet, adjusted the right taste, and wrote down the recipe.
The recorded recipe was written in a notebook, almost full.
The certificate application was approved.
Just wait for a while and the things will be delivered.
A customer walked in from the door. He didn't plan to open the business today, but he didn't plan to chase the customer away, so he raised his head to greet the customer.
"Hello, welcome, is there anything I can do for you?"
Green closed the notebook, walked to the door and asked the customer who walked in through a cash register.
The customer looked around for a while and sat down at the table at the door. There was a chair there. He didn't see any menu and felt a little strange, so he asked, "What's here?"
"This is a milk tea shop, so would you like a regular medium cup of full sugar pure sweet milk tea?"
Green asked.
"Okay, but I want a large cup with double the sugar. Can you do it?"
The customer nodded and asked.
"Sure!"
Green nodded.
"How much is a cup of milk tea?"
The customer was about to pay.
"Seven dollars for a medium cup, nine dollars for a large cup."
Green replied.
The customer nodded and paid the money, waiting for him to bring the milk tea.
"Would you like it with ice or hot? Room temperature is also OK?"
Green asked.
"Then I'd like a cup of hot milk tea."
The customer thought for a moment and said.
Green nodded and brought the hot milk tea to his table.
"This is for you."
Green said.
The customer nodded and quickly finished the cup of hot milk tea.
"How is this made? It has a particularly strong milky sweetness, but without the fishy smell of milk. It's very sweet, but it won't make your throat hoarse. The tea taste is not salty or light, it's great.
I've also had milk tea from other stores, and I know roughly how they make it, but I can't make it at home. I asked them, and the one they made for me wasn't as delicious as this one."
The customer muttered to himself.
"Hello, may I have your contact information? If you are free, I want to bring some things here to my friends. I will contact you if I need anything."
The customer said to Green.
"Okay, what's your name?"
Green asked.
"My name is Li Aling, you can just call me Li Aling."
The customer replied.
Green nodded.
The customer left after leaving his contact information.
Green sat down and tried to think about what he wanted to do.
If he wanted to make money, he would never make a lot of money just by opening a store.
If he wanted to open a store and devote himself to it, he would not have time to think about anything else, let alone something as energy-consuming as approaching another person.
If he wanted to get close to Artonis, he would have to open a shop to make money. But these should be two different things, opening a shop and making money. They should not be confused. Otherwise, he would not know what he was doing.
Opening a shop is to get close to Artonis, so as long as he can get close to Artonis, he can open a shop. There is no need to pursue higher profits.
Making money is also to get close to Artonis, so as long as he works hard to make more money, it is not only possible to make money by opening a shop. Otherwise, he will waste his brain.
So what he has to do next is to open a shop to achieve the agreed goals, so as to get the opportunity to meet Artonis and make countless money to maintain his friendship with Artonis.
Then use more money to make Artonis agree to his request.
Maybe this way will work.
Not sure, give it a try first.
Since there are no customers here, we should think about how to make money in the future.
Green began to browse the stock market.
The stocks were all green, and it didn't look good.
But Green found a product that looked like it could make a lot of money. He bought the stock and spent 800 million. The next day, the stock started to rise.
Although the increase was not large, it gradually turned losses into profits.
The next week proved that the stock rose at an unprecedented speed.
A large number of stockholders rushed in to buy.
In the second week, the stock continued to rise, and the speed was faster than the first week.
More stockholders poured into the market.
In the third week, the stock was still rising, and the value of the stock had doubled 100 times.
At this time, even calm investors could not wait any longer. Seeing others making money while they did nothing seemed like they were missing out on a chance to get rich.
Some investors who were testing the waters began to buy the stock.
As a result, by the fourth week, the stock was still rising, and it was about to break the record. The whole nation was crazy about it.
Even ordinary people who usually did not pay attention to stocks began to want to invest their money in it.
By the 30th day, the stock finally reached its daily limit, breaking the record of the highest increase in 20 years, and its value increased 400 times.
People who were wondering if this was a scam to take all the money out of people's wallets also started to waver and decided to buy in, hoping to catch this ride.
By the 40th day, everyone thought that this stock was the best stock in the world and that it would continue to rise, making everyone rich.
Many people threw their money in, but no splash was heard, as if they were just transferring money from one wallet to another.
In fact, they thought that their money was as safe in this stock as in a bank, but it had more amazing interest than a bank, and they were very happy.
On the 45th day, the stock price had increased 600 times. Green stopped when he saw the good and sold all the stocks. He got 480 billion.
Because 600 times 800 million is 480 billion.
