Chapter 6
Although employees were hired and Guan Ziying came to help, the business was booming. Soon there were not enough staff and the store could not accommodate so many customers.
Looking at the long line of customers outside the window, Song Zhehao made up his mind and said, "It's time to open a branch!"
The branch was opened right away, and the address was chosen to be next to the main store.
At the beginning, Guan Ziying was a little worried and asked if the branch should be opened farther away. If the two stores were placed together, they might not attract many customers.
Song Zhehao told her not to worry, saying that he was confident.
As expected, the branch remained popular not long after it opened. Customers who were reluctant to queue up before now came to the store as soon as they heard that a branch had opened.
And Qiu Yuan finally fulfilled his wish and became the manager of the branch.
Moreover, when recruiting employees, many people come to him because of his reputation. Song Zhehao, with his advantage of traveling through many lives and having a keen eye, carefully selects the applicants and pays special attention to the employees' character.
Song Zhehao knew that it was only a matter of time before he could make his business big, so he had to train a group of loyal people.
Fortunately, although many people were eliminated, Song Zhehao also screened out qualified employees.
Song Zhehao has never been stingy with these people. Not only does he give them continuous salary increases, but he also distributes dividends every month. With the booming business in the store, the dividends the employees receive are actually higher than their wages.
When they were amazed at the high salary, Song Zhehao actively encouraged them to buy shares so that they could get more dividends in the future.
The employees naturally knew that with Song Zhehao's leadership ability and his excellent craftsmanship, the breakfast shop had the potential to grow bigger and would definitely not fail.
Song Zhehao encouraged them to buy shares, but wasn't that just letting them share the money for free?
Of course they are willing!
And in this way, Song Zhehao's goal was achieved...
Song Zhehao always believed that only when more benefits were given would people work harder for him. Now that they also had shares, they had to work even harder and hoped that the breakfast shop would continue to develop.
In this way, everyone is united, cohesive, and motivated, and the future development prospects will be even brighter!
At that time, Song Zhehao already had two branches. It took him a year to buy a large house in the most prosperous area of the city.
The first thing Song Zhehao did was to buy such a house.
Song Zhehao knew that this was Guan Ziying’s long-cherished wish!
Ever since the two of them got together, they have always rented a house, and the original owner was willing to be a parasite, so the rent was paid by Guan Ziying.
The combination of the two always gave Guan Ziying a sense of insecurity. In addition, without a fixed residence, Guan Ziying always felt like a drifter and helpless.
What makes Guan Ziying even more upset is the harsh words the landlord said when she couldn't pay the rent...
The original owner had always been generous and didn't care about the family's food, drink, defecation and urination. Only Guan Ziying took care of these things. That was fine, as the monthly salary was enough to make ends meet.
But the original owner not only didn't take care of the household, but also exploited Guan Ziying. As soon as Guan Ziying's salary came in, the original owner coaxed and cheated her, and even secretly took it away to recharge the game.
My meager salary was not enough to cover food and housing, and now half of my salary is gone. I have to eat to survive, but if I eat, I can’t pay the rent.
After weighing the pros and cons, Guan Ziying finally decided not to pay the rent for the time being.
Sometimes, the rent was paid a month late. Even though the landlord would curse at him, as long as Guan Ziying said a nice word, the landlord would reluctantly agree.
However, most of the time, the rent was delayed for three or four months, and although Guan Ziying had promised to pay the rent on time, in the end she had no money, which left the landlord with the impression that she was untrustworthy.
Guan Ziying once prayed, "After we make money, can we buy our own house? I can't sleep well living this kind of wandering and helpless life."
That night, Song Zhehao said sincerely, "I promise you, I will give you a house of your own, so you can sleep soundly."
Song Zhehao made this promise, so when he earned enough money, the first thing he did was to buy a house for Guan Ziying that was in a prosperous location, had enough space, and was beautifully decorated to suit her aesthetic taste.
The moment Guan Ziying got the key to her new house, she couldn't stop crying.
She said that in the past she always thought that she might not be able to wait for this day, but she did not expect that this day would come so soon.
Seeing Guan Ziying's excitement, Song Zhehao was extremely pleased.
The moment she moved into her spacious and bright new home, Guan Ziying collapsed on the soft sofa and said, "In this life, having a place of my own is enough. I don't need anything else!"
Hearing this, Song Zhehao said, "That won't do! Money is meant to be spent, to make life more comfortable and to satisfy desires. Otherwise, why work so hard?"
After hearing this, Guan Ziying nodded and agreed with Song Zhehao's opinion.
However, Guan Ziying has always been frugal. Even though the family's financial power is in Guan Ziying's hands, she is reluctant to spend money on herself.
Song Zhehao watched and was really anxious.
Song Zhehao thought, since you don’t want to spend money, why don’t I spend it for you?
From then on, whether it was clothes, accessories, cosmetics, or nutrients that Guan Ziying needed, she would always provide them.
Song Zhehao buys whatever he sees, and he only looks at high-end goods because he has a unique vision and has acquired specialized knowledge.
Therefore, all the items Song Zhehao gave to Guan Ziying were top-notch goods, and they were very useful to Guan Ziying.
However, the price was a little high. Every time Guan Ziying admired Song Zhehao's unique vision, she would get angry when she heard the price Song Zhehao quoted, and told him not to spend money indiscriminately next time.
Of course, the next time, Song Zhehao completely forgot Guan Ziying's instructions.
At this time, Song Zhehao's breakfast shop had opened five branches, and the monthly income was enough to support the couple's extravagance.
As their son Song Zhehao's career has soared to new heights, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Song, are extremely pleased.
In the past, because they doted on the original owner, the original owner became like this. Song's father and mother never raised their heads, and even avoided relatives and friends from a distance when they met them on the street!
I really have low self-esteem! My son is a failure, and I’m afraid others will bring up this topic.
Now that Song Zhehao has made money, he not only bought a house for himself and Guan Ziying, but also bought a house for his father and mother to live in during their retirement.
Because Guan Ziying likes the hustle and bustle, Song Zhehao bought a house for them in a bustling downtown area. Song's father and mother are both older and like quietness, so they bought a house in the suburbs where it is relatively quiet and has a good green environment.
The house's layout, location, and decoration style were all personally selected by Song Zhehao, and are very much in line with the tastes of Song's father and mother.
Seeing that he not only worked hard but also cared so much about them, Song's father and mother were so relieved!
When the Song family was of ordinary financial status, there were few relatives visiting the family. But now that everyone has heard of Song Zhehao's abilities, there are many relatives coming and going.
Song's father and mother did not care about these things. When people are in good times, they can always forgive many knots that they could not let go of before.
Now that relatives and friends have arrived, Song's father and mother always like to invite Song Zhehao and his wife to come over as well. When everyone sees Song Zhehao, they naturally praise him and their words are overflowing with praise.
The uncle sighed that his son was not ambitious enough and wished he could be as good as Song Zhehao.
My cousin's aunt said, Zhehao, you earn so much, why don't you promote your cousin-in-law? Although he is not as smart as you, nor as capable as you, he is down-to-earth and patient.
For all of this, relatives and friends may admire, praise, seek help, or just want to get some benefits.
Song Zhehao's way of dealing with things is that if it is not a matter of principle, he can basically compromise and agree to it.
However, once it involves a matter of principle, even if it will offend the other party, Song Zhehao always refuses decisively and is never vague.
Seeing Song Zhehao being praised by everyone and seeing him handle these problems with ease, Song's father and mother's eyes always revealed a gentle emotion of extreme relief.
Song's father is not good at speaking and usually responds with a smile, while Song's mother likes to talk about Song Zhehao's difficulties in front of everyone.
Song's mother always said, "Zhehao has a hard time too! Even though he has opened so many stores and makes a lot of money every year, she has to worry about everything big and small in the store. It won't work if she leaves!"
"This guy! How much ability he has, how much hardship he has to endure. I really feel sorry for him. No one is sharing his burden. I even advise him to earn less and take care of his health!"
On the surface, Song's mother's words seemed to be worried, but in fact they were words of praise for her son, and she said them without much thought.
Song's mother said it without caring, and everyone who heard it would glance at Guan Ziying from time to time.
Song's mother said it clearly. Her son is so successful in his career, but he has no one to share his worries. Everyone can't help but think of Guan Ziying. As a wife, why doesn't she help her husband?
After hearing these words and seeing everyone's reactions, Guan Ziying naturally guessed it, but she didn't say anything and didn't take it to heart.
But Song Zhehao didn't want others to misunderstand him, so he immediately continued what his mother said, "Hey! It was really like this in the past. I was so tired that I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow when I got home."
"Ziying saw how hard I was working and immediately quit her easy job to come to the store to help me. On the surface, it seems that I am the one who is busy, but in fact, Ziying is even busier than me. There are some things that I can't even think of, but Ziying has done them perfectly. If it weren't for Ziying watching over them, I really don't know what a mess those stores would be in."
"I must have been blessed in my previous life to be able to marry Ziying in this life."
As soon as Song Zhehao said this, the suspicion in everyone's eyes immediately disappeared. They all followed Song Zhehao's words, did him a favor, and began to praise Guan Ziying.
Everyone is a relative or friend, so they naturally understand the affairs of the Song family. They know that if the original owner, who was a good-for-nothing, had not relied on Guan Ziying for support, how could he have reached this point today? It is said that when you become rich and powerful, don't forget your friends, let alone your wife who has shared the joys and sorrows with you. What Song Zhehao said is not an exaggeration at all. The words that everyone praised Guan Ziying were also real, without any water.
