Chapter 180: Opportunity to make a lot of money (1300 monthly tickets plus more)
At noon, Qi Sheng and Han Yue had their meal and left in a leisurely manner.
Han Yue looked at Qi Sheng's back reluctantly.
I looked at the long list of deposits in the mobile banking app and smiled with satisfaction.
For her, money is what gives her a sense of security.
Except for outstanding men like Qi Sheng.
An old man like Li Chengqian would never even dream of entering her inner world.
Li Chengqian had been waiting for Han Yue downstairs.
Seeing Han Yue coming out, he immediately walked over.
"Han Yue, I want to talk to you."
"Go ahead and I'll listen."
Han Yue was a little impatient, but thinking that it was not the other party and she would have no chance to contact Qi Sheng, she nodded.
"There's a coffee shop over there, let's go in and talk."
Li Chengqian didn't want to talk about this in front of the hotel.
Found a quieter coffee shop.
I plan to talk to Han Yue about how the two of us should get along in the future.
"Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"
Han Yue casually ordered a cappuccino, not paying attention to the price as before.
This is the confidence that money brings! "That Mr. Qi gave you a lot of money, right?"
Li Chengqian is a social elite after all.
Many things can be understood clearly when you calm down.
"Well, so what?"
Han Yue never thought of hiding it from Li Chengqian.
"Since we have obtained the marriage certificate, we should be considered a legal couple."
"The money that Mr. Qi gave you should be considered as marital property, and I can get half of it."
Li Chengqian saw the fire in Han Yue's eyes and hurriedly explained.
"I don't want to share your money. I just hope that you can live with me like a real couple in this year."
"Oh, you dare to think so!"
Han Yue curled his lips in disdain.
"During this year, let's cooperate well. As long as you don't bother your ex-wife, we will live in peace."
"No, you are unreasonable."
Li Chengqian looked a little annoyed.
"I've been bullied by you guys, and we're legally married. Is it too much to ask you to live with me?"
"I'm sorry, I can't accept it. If you have the guts, give me the betrothal gifts and the five golds, and then tell me about living together."
Han Yue also knew Li Chengqian's purpose.
He just wanted to take advantage of her for free.
Haha, he is dreaming!
"Han Yue, I hope you think about it carefully. I, Li Chengqian, think I'm doing pretty well."
"I have a three-bedroom apartment in Chengdu worth 3 million yuan, and a BMW X5."
"I have 500,000 or 600,000 in savings and a decent job, which should be more than enough for you."
When Li Chengqian talked about his conditions, he straightened his back proudly.
"Hehe, so what?"
Han Yue remained unmoved and asked back with a sneer.
Li Chengqian's conditions are indeed quite good.
But what does this have to do with her? "I hope you can understand that rich young men like Mr. Qi are just playing around with you. I am the reliable man."
"At your age, you must have physical needs. Having a husband like me is better than knowing some dubious man."
Li Chengqian also tried hard to suppress his nausea and said nonsense that he himself did not believe.
He thought about it all night yesterday.
It was such a loss for him to get married with Han Yue just like that.
At the very least, Han Yue must be slept with enough within a year.
This would alleviate a little of the humiliation he had to endure.
"reliable?"
How could Han Yue not understand Li Chengqian's thoughts and criticized him mercilessly.
"I advise you to give up this thought. For this year, we will just be husband and wife."
"As for my physiological needs, you don't have to worry about them."
"What do you mean?"
Li Chengqian didn't expect Han Yue to be so excessive that he even wanted to hook up with Qi Sheng.
Oh boy, I have to be a turtle this year?
"Whether you agree or not, it will not affect the agreement between me and Mr. Qi. I hope you can understand."
"I have something else to do. Bye, my dear husband."
Han Yue twisted her sexy waist and left the coffee shop.
"Fuck, this woman is really too much!"
Li Chengqian slammed the table angrily, prompting the waiter to come over and remind him.
"Sir, please be quiet."
"I'm quiet!"
Li Chengqian wanted to get angry, but he saw several men staring at him.
He couldn't help but curse and took out a red banknote and slammed it on the table.
Keep the change, please.
Li Chengqian was about to leave but was stopped by the waiter.
"Sorry, our coffee is 58 yuan a cup, you need to pay an extra 16 yuan."
The waiter smiled, but in his heart he despised Li Chengqian for being stingy.
"Is yours a black shop?"
Li Chengqian didn't pay attention to the price just now.
I saw Han Yue glance at the price and looked indifferent.
He thought that this shop only served 20 to 31 cups of coffee.
"Sir, please be careful with your words. Our family has always run its business with integrity. I hope you won't slander us."
The waiter's smile had disappeared.
He winked at his colleagues and asked them to stand guard at the door and the booth respectively.
"What do you mean, I'm the one who can't afford the coffee?"
Li Chengqian was about to get the money when he discovered that all the cash was gone.
Nowadays people are used to paying with mobile phones, but his Apple was broken.
“Is there a POS machine?”
Li Chengqian had no choice but to swipe his card.
"Please wait a moment."
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and asked his colleague to bring the POS machine.
Seeing how well-dressed this guy is and how he has a beautiful girlfriend, I would have thought he was a rich man.
If I hadn't paid attention, this guy would have probably run away with the bill.
…
Qi Sheng left the hotel and went to the Lawang flagship store in Taikoo Li.
At the entrance of Lawang, there are many couples or groups of best friends drinking tea and playing with their mobile phones.
"Welcome...Boss?"
When the doorman Meilin saw Qi Sheng, she thought she was seeing things.
After confirming it again, I was extremely surprised.
"Mei Lin, is our store doing so well?"
Qi Sheng smiled and nodded at her, then asked casually.
"Hehe, yes, brothers and sisters all cherish this job very much, and our store has always received 5 points in reviews!"
Meilin raised her chin with great pride.
This is the credit of everyone in their store.
“Good job!”
Qi Sheng smiled and patted the other person's shoulder.
"Then you continue to be busy, I will go in and take a look."
"OK."
Meilin hesitated.
"Boss, can I take a photo with you?"
"group photo?"
Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"no problem."
“Wow, thank you!”
Meilin was so excited that she took out her cell phone and switched it to selfie mode.
She made a scissors hand gesture and shyly moved very close to Qi Sheng.
"Is it ready?"
Qi Sheng cooperated and took several photos with him.
It’s because our President Qi’s main focus is to pamper his employees.
In his previous life, he was also a hard-working worker.
Even if I become rich in this life, I will never forget my roots.
Shengxuan Group implements an eight-hour work system and two days off on weekends, as well as five insurances and one fund.
In Chengdu, this is the best treatment.
Anyone who dares to question that he is not a conscientious entrepreneur will be scolded by the group's employees.
"Hello, boss."
On the way, when they saw Qisheng’s employees, they all bowed and greeted them excitedly.
"Wow, this is the boss of Spicy King? Isn't he so handsome?"
There were a lot of girls queuing up, which was quite boring.
When I saw the perfect male god appear, I couldn't help but get agitated.
"Beauty, is that really your boss?"
Meilin was stopped by several girls in the queue, who pointed at Qi Sheng's back with some gossip.
"Yes, our boss is super handsome and is very nice to us!"
Meilin is just eighteen years old and her family is poor.
I dropped out of school early and started working outside, and was attracted by the recruitment of Lawang by chance.
With his warm and innocent smile, he won the favor of Yuan Li.
Successfully joined Lawang and worked as a receptionist.
The daily work of the doorman is no easier than that of the kitchen staff.
When greeting and seeing off guests, always keep smiling.
I am a little different from other colleagues.
Meilin was grateful to Qi Sheng from the bottom of her heart for giving her a decent job.
Not only are there five social insurances and one housing fund, but you can also have two days off on weekends.
Occasionally, I would go out and play around with a few good sisters.
If you work overtime, you will also receive a subsidy of 25 yuan per hour.
I have four sets of work clothes, so I don’t need to buy clothes on weekdays.
Food and accommodation are provided, and you don’t have to pay for water, electricity, and internet.
Every month, she would send a large portion of her earnings back home.
So that my younger brother can afford to go to school and so that my parents have money to buy medicine.
Among the employees, Meilin is the one who is closest to being a die-hard fan of Qi Sheng.
In modern society, there can be such loyalty.
Even when Qi Sheng saw it, he couldn't help but favor this little sister.
Only then did I remember her name.
Otherwise, Mr. Qi would not be able to remember the names of all the thousands of employees under him.
"From now on, I will only eat hotpot at Lawang, because my husband is so handsome!"
Meilin pouted.
"Beauty, our boss has many girlfriends. You have no hope."
"Who says your boss only likes skin? What if he's interested in my soul?"
Meilin curled her lips and said, "I'm glad you're happy. I'll get busy now."
…
Inside the restaurant, all the diners were in high spirits.
Obviously very satisfied with the taste of Spicy King.
The spicy king, as the name suggests.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Every stubborn guest will be punished.
Slightly spicy, similar to other restaurants.
Slightly spicy is equal to medium spicy, and medium spicy is equal to hot and spicy.
Spicy is equal to extra spicy, and extra spicy is equal to extremely spicy.
The spicy hot pot base will definitely make diners feel like they are in ecstasy.
After Qi Sheng and Yuan Li discussed it, they organized a spicy king challenge.
Any customer who can finish all the food on the table despite the spicy hot pot.
You will receive a free meal and a cash reward of one thousand yuan.
This activity will continue as a gimmick to attract people.
Many curious diners took part in the challenge, only to end up crying because of the spiciness.
The fame of Spicy King gradually spread in the Sichuan and Chongqing areas.
Many foreign tourists come to Chengdu because of its reputation.
I just want to experience the terrible spiciness of Spicy King.
Is Jiangxi cuisine very spicy?
In front of the spicy hot pot base of La Wang, it is just a younger brother.
Although the average customer spending is relatively high, it is very popular online and its taste is highly praised.
The turnover rate of La Wang is even more frighteningly high.
There are 5 times on weekdays, and more than 6 times on weekends and holidays.
Especially with the arrival of store bloggers, the popularity of Lawang is increasing.
The popular and popular Lawang has won the admiration and envy of many hotpot brands.
There are no less than dozens of hotpot brands that have sent people to conduct research.
Many people who want to open a hot pot restaurant will also come to Lawang to learn from it.
See if you can learn something.
But after coming here, they found that they could not replicate the successful model of Lawang at all.
First of all, the employee benefits are simply beyond their control.
The basic salary is 5,000, which is not much.
Job performance ranging from 1000-3000 is also very common.
But there are five insurances and one fund, two days off a week, and an eight-hour work system.
Overtime is 25 yuan per hour, and lunch and dinner are both given a meal allowance of 25 yuan.
Accommodation is provided, including water and electricity bills…
Fuck, are they recruiting employees? Are you sure they are not recruiting bosses? Even many public institutions don't offer as good treatment as Lawang.
At most, the work content should be easier.
But is it that easy to pass the exam for a public institution? How many people fail every year.
It took me several years to finally pass the exam.
But Lawang is different, there are almost no requirements for academic qualifications.
As long as you can listen, speak, read and write normally, it will be fine.
Not to mention undergraduates, there are many people who have not even graduated from high school.
"Everyone is busy, don't bother me."
Qi Sheng smiled and waved his hand, but he didn't see Yuan Li in the store.
Come to think of it, Yuan Li is a very busy person now.
In addition to selecting locations for Lawang branches, he is also busy negotiating supply chains and receiving investors.
Apart from normal sleep, Yuan Li is either making or receiving calls every day.
Fortunately, Qi Sheng improved her wave ability.
These seemingly busy tasks were completed easily by her.
Yuan Li had no complaints at all about Qi Sheng, the hands-off boss.
As an employee, it is her responsibility and obligation to work hard for her boss.
He Yu from Black Ant and Su Kai from Sequoia were full of praise for Yuan Li's abilities.
I even feel that the other party is underemployed.
With Yuan Li's ability, even being the CEO of a Fortune 500 company would be no problem at all.
Lawang is just a small company with less than 30 stores.
As Lawang became increasingly popular, Yuan Li was often harassed by headhunters.
Especially Haidilao, which missed out on such a valuable talent.
It almost made the top management of the group regret it to death.
Seeing that Lawang had gained a firm foothold in the southwest, it began to gradually plan for expansion.
It is also backed by top venture capital firms such as Sequoia.
Anyone with a little vision can easily see that the Spicy King is coming with great force.
"Director Qi?"
When Qi Sheng heard someone calling him, he turned around subconsciously and immediately smiled.
"Mr. He?"
"Haha, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet Mr. Qi, a busy man, at the Spicy King's head office."
He Yu was also very surprised, and hurried over to shake Qi Sheng's hand enthusiastically.
"Mr. He, are you here on a business trip?"
Qi Sheng remembers that Black Ant Capital’s headquarters is in Shenzhen.
There is naturally only one possibility for him to come to Chengdu.
"Haha, I'm here to meet an old friend who is also the founder of a company invested by our Black Ant. How about I take you there?"
He Yu is so enthusiastic about Qi Sheng.
Besides because of the investment in Lawang.
He even wanted to trick the other party into becoming the LP (investor) of the second phase of Black Ant Capital's funds.
"That's a good feeling."
Qi Sheng didn't refuse either. He Yu was a man with good vision.
Maybe there will be some surprise for him.
When He Yu saw Qi Sheng nod readily, he couldn't help but have a better impression of him.
Arriving at the booth, Qi Sheng looked at the short, unremarkable man with glasses in front of him and waited for He Yu to introduce him.
"Mr. Qi, this is the CEO of Pop Mart, as well as the founder and largest shareholder, Wang Ning."
"Mr. Wang, this is the Banyan Tree Group chairman I often tell you about, Qi Sheng."
As a middleman, He Yu would naturally choose the other party's most famous company when introducing it.
Compared to the newly started Lawang, Banyan Tree Group is more famous.
"Mr. Qi, nice to meet you."
Wang Ning did not dare to be careless and quickly extended his hand very solemnly.
"Mr. Wang, nice to meet you."
Qi Sheng smiled and then sat down opposite the two of them.
"Help me get the cutlery."
As soon as Qi Sheng finished speaking, the waiter immediately brought the tableware.
"Boss Wang, are you satisfied with the taste of Spicy King?"
Qi Sheng asked the waiter to help him prepare the side dishes and asked Wang Ning casually.
"Very satisfied, I'm not exaggerating, this is really the best Sichuan and Chongqing hotpot I've ever had, no doubt about it!"
It was only after eating this hotpot that Wang Ning understood why his old friend He Yu was so confident.
Lawang will definitely replace Haidilao and become the leading company in the hotpot industry.
Top quality food, top service, top environment.
It’s worth the money! “That’s good. Soon, Lawang will open branches in third-tier and above cities across the country.”
"By then, Mr. Wang will be able to eat La Wang in any city."
Qi Sheng's tone seemed calm, but in fact it was full of pressure.
"Well…"
Wang Ning was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but be shocked by Qi Sheng's domineering attitude.
There are branches of Lawang in all third-tier and above cities across the country.
What a big deal this is!
Even Haidilao is no better than this.
Running a chain hotpot restaurant is not that easy.
Quality control, service, and price require sufficient talent reserves to be successful.
"Haha, Mr. Wang, you've tasted the flavor of La Wang. If you want to eat hot pot, would you choose La Wang or Haidilao?"
He Yu explained Qi Sheng's words using a more vivid multiple-choice question.
"Then I'd definitely choose Spicy King. The taste is completely different."
Wang Ning gave the answer without thinking.
The service at Haidilao is good, but the service at Lawang is not bad either.
For employees, as long as the benefits are good.
Even if it makes me laugh all day, it’s no big deal.
How can you want the horse to run without giving it grass to eat? Given the potential of Spicy King, it is only a matter of time before it becomes the leader in the catering industry.
"Director Qi, Mr. Wang came to Chengdu this time to open a new store."
"Pop Mart is about to be delisted from the New Third Board."
"If you have the chance, buy a share before it's delisted."
He Yu also has good intentions and he is very optimistic about Pop Mart.
Qi Sheng is capable and it would be great if he could also invest.
The future of Pop Mart will undoubtedly be more promising.
"Investment?"
Qi Sheng smiled and shook his head, "I don't have a lot of money right now, let's talk about it later."
"Ha, that's true. Mr. Qi's family is very wealthy. He spent 680 million to acquire the Hangzhou West Lake Hotel. It was really a big deal."
He Yu was afraid that Wang Ning would underestimate Qi Sheng, so he quickly told him about the recent major moves of the Banyan Tree Group.
"680 million?"
Wang Ning couldn't help but glance at Qi Sheng.
I have a new impression of Mr. Qi, who is very wealthy.
The market value of Pop Mart on the New Third Board is only 1.5 billion.
This means that Qi Sheng has the power to acquire their company.
Thinking of this, Wang Ning looked at Qi Sheng with only awe and admiration.
It is said that this Mr. Qi is younger than him.
He is already a tycoon with a net worth of tens of billions.
The valuation of Lawang alone is 1 billion US dollars.
It was five times the valuation of his company! But he didn't know that it was Mr. Qi, whom he admired.
I have already secretly planned how to acquire his company.
Qi Sheng, who had the power of prophecy, naturally knew that Pop Mart would have a market value of tens of billions in the future.
The current market value is only a few billion, which is almost the floor price.
Just hold it for two years and you can get dozens of times the return on your investment.
How could Qi Sheng miss such a good thing? It seems that all the authors' monthly votes are increasing at the end of the month. It would be a shame if I didn't update more. Forget it, I'll update more. I'll start updating in a Buddhist way next month. Yang Xishi has to open an automatic subscription. Thank you all! (End of this chapter)
