"What's wrong with you? You delivered a takeaway and came back in a daze. Was your car stolen?" Lunch time had passed and there were fewer customers today. Xu Qing sat in the hall and played chess with a customer. But he saw Yu Shiyuan coming back as if he had lost his soul.
Yu Shiyuan looked up at Xu Qing, swallowed his saliva, and waved at Xu Qing, "Qingzi, come here, I have something to tell you."
Xu Qing pursed her lips and walked over, "What's wrong?"
Yu Shiyuan handed the property certificate in his hand to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing took it with doubt, "Property certificate?"
When I opened the property certificate, I saw that the address written on it was No. 10, 1st Street, 9th Street.
The names of Xu Qing and Yu Shiyuan were written as the property owners.
When Xu Qing saw his name, he was stunned for a moment and thought he had seen it wrong. I couldn't help but rub my eyes, then I opened my eyes wide and my pupils suddenly contracted.
"This, am I dazzled? Why are your and my names written on this property deed?"
Xu Qing looked up at Yu Shiyuan in disbelief.
"You're not seeing things. The names on the property certificate are mine and yours." Yu Shiyuan said with a complicated expression.
"What's going on? You're not going to say that you inherited some fortune from an elder who had no children, or that you won the lottery, like in the TV series?"
Xu Qing and Yu Shiyuan were classmates in junior high school and they have known each other for almost ten years. We have been together for almost ten years, and both sets of parents have met each other. We only registered our marriage last year, but we have been living together for several years. Xu Qing knew Shi Yuan very well.
Although Yu Shiyuan is a professional chess player of the sixth dan rank, his talent is limited. Since becoming a professional chess player, the number of championships he has won in various large-scale individual competitions can be counted on one hand.
Usually I just get a basic salary, and occasionally go out to participate in some small competitions, and always get second or third place. The prize money from the competition is also quite considerable.
However, that still doesn’t allow me to buy a shop on Ninth Street, which has the highest traffic volume and the most expensive shop rents.
The rent there is already ridiculously high, and every store is a hen that lays eggs. If you want to buy a store there, you’ll need at least several hundred million.
If Xu Qing didn't know Yu Shiyuan, he would have thought he was going to rob a bank.
Yu Shiyuan had already anticipated Xu Qing's reaction. "It's not an inheritance, nor did I win the lottery. Someone bought shares in our private restaurant. They bought shares in the shops on Ninth Street and First Street."
When Yu Shiyuan smiled, his face was a little stiff, as if he didn't know what expression to use to express his complicated feelings at the moment.
So, I told the whole story.
After hearing this, Xu Qing was completely confused. "You mean, after Mr. Qiu knew about our situation, he directly bought the shop on Jiu Street and gave it to us, as if he were investing in our small private restaurant, and he only wanted half of the shares?"
Is he dreaming? To be honest, their private restaurant is not worth any money at all. The shop belongs to the landlord, they just rented it and spent a lot of money to renovate it.
Now, someone is spending hundreds of millions to buy shares in them. And they only want half of the shares and don’t want to participate in management, just profit dividends? Is there really such a thing as pie falling from the sky in the world?
"Why do you think Mr. Qiu would do this? Even if the food I cook tastes good, it's not worth his hundreds of millions, right?"
Xu Qing is still very self-aware. Although he has ancestral recipes, the dishes he makes taste good. But there are many restaurant chefs in Kyoto whose dishes are better than his. Why did Qiu Shui choose them?
Yu Shiyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Because Yuchen gave his VIP card worth more than 30,000 yuan to Mr. Qiu. Then he asked Mr. Qiu to order our takeaway. Mr. Qiu agreed. He thought that if we closed down, it would be a waste of more than 30,000 yuan. So he simply bought the store and gave it to us as an investment."
What? Just because you are afraid of wasting 30,000 Chinese yuan, you invest several hundred million?
What kind of Versailles reason is this?
However, when Xu Qing heard Yu Shiyuan say that Qiu Shui spent more than 700 million yuan on antiques to decorate his own antique shelves, he no longer had any questions.
Are you kidding? People can spend more than 700 million to decorate antique shelves, so buying a store worth several hundred million is nothing.
Moreover, he was able to buy the store and obtain the property certificate in just one day and one night. How powerful does this person have to be?
Putting aside how surprised Xu Qing and Yu Shiyuan were, the system was also very surprised that Qiu Shui would actually make such a big move, several hundred million, to invest in a small private restaurant?
That’s not Qiu Shui’s stingy personality!
"Host, if you are controlled by someone, just blink." The system shouted uneasily in Qiu Shui's mind.
Qiu Shui blinked.
The system freaked out.
"Host, what's going on? What's controlling you? Tell me quickly, is it some other advanced system? Damn it, why can't I detect it? Could it be a paid system? I need to contact the main system immediately. If it is a paid system, then it is against the rules. Two systems cannot be bound to one host."
"Oh, besides you, are there other systems in this world?" Qiu Shui asked curiously.
"It's impossible under normal circumstances." The system was getting anxious, but then it saw that Qiu Shui's expression seemed normal and his eyes were clear, and he didn't look like he was being controlled. Thinking of what Qiu Shui had asked just now, the system asked tentatively: "Host, are you not controlled by another system?"
"No!" Qiu Shui said innocently.
"Then why did you blink just now?" the system asked angrily.
Qiu Shui rolled his eyes, "What nonsense are you talking about? If I don't blink, I'll be dead."
The system was so angry that its white hair exploded. "Then why did you suddenly spend 300 million to buy store No. 10?"
"Of course it's for food. The card that Lou Yuchen gave me still has more than 30,000 Chinese Yuan. If the private dishes are gone, where can I order takeout?"
After Qiu Shui finished speaking, he added: "Of course, that's also for investment. Just like you said before, savings in the bank are really just numbers. You still have to spend them. Now that I've spent money, you're unhappy again. Your little system is really difficult to deal with."
"This system wants the host to spend money, but the money must be worth it. You spent 300 million to get 50% of the profit share of the private restaurant. This is a loss-making business. The store should be written in your own name."
Qiu Shui smiled and said, "If the shop was named after me, Xu Qing and Yu Shiyuan would never agree to my investment in them. Although their private restaurant is a little small, Xu Qing's cooking skills are worth the investment. I believe that after they go to Jiujie, they should be able to grow bigger and stronger soon. Maybe they can open a chain store in the future and make private tea into a brand!"
The system said sullenly, "This system thinks you are blinded by lust. It is because they are Lou Yuchen's friends that you spend so much money to help them, right? You are not so nice to this system normally."
Qiu Shui didn't expect the system to be jealous. "How could I? I gave you money, didn't I?"
"You only gave this system 1,000 Chinese yuan, but it didn't even pay for the labor costs of helping you quickly purchase the store, nor the handling fee for transferring the property certificate." The system said dissatisfiedly.
Qiu Shui held his forehead with his hand, "Okay, okay, then how about another 500?"
The system pouted, "No, 1000."
"Okay, 1,000 is 1,000." Qiu Shui looked distressed.
The system was immediately delighted. That was great. It got another 1,000 Chinese yuan from the host.
Seeing that the system was dismissed with just 1,000 yuan, Qiu Shui couldn't help but laugh. This little system is really innocent and cute.
Is Qiu Shui really blinded by lust? Of course not.
Recently in the system space, he has also learned a lot of courses such as financial investment and economic development. Although it is just a simple understanding. There are still many things I don’t understand.
But he knew that Qin Ze was a member of the Qin family. If there was no absolute profit, would he do whatever it took to get Xu Qing's ancestral recipe?
Although Xu Qing's dishes are indeed delicious, there are many chefs in big restaurants in Kyoto whose cooking skills are even better than Xu Qing's. Why did Qin Ze choose to target Xu Qing?
According to the data from the system investigation, there is no conflict between Qin Ze and Xu Qing. Therefore, there must be something here that outsiders don’t know.
Qin Ze was still imprisoned in the Qin family because he offended someone he shouldn't have offended. Without the Qin family's tacit approval, he would not have been able to do so many tricks behind the scenes.
Therefore, people from the Qin family were also involved in this matter.
Something that could involve the Qin family couldn't be as simple as a recipe passed down from ancestors.
Although he didn't know what was hidden here, Qiu Shui felt that there was nothing wrong with him taking the initiative. After all, he likes Lou Yuchen very much. Isn't it normal for him to spend 300 million to invest in his friend's restaurant for Lou Yuchen? Nothing wrong.
Lou Yuchen, who was far away in Shanghai, received a call from Yu Shiyuan.
When Lou Yuchen heard this, he was also surprised, and then he said to Yu Shiyuan on the phone: "You can decide this matter by yourselves. But there is one thing I must say. Since he has paid so much money, I hope you can formally sign a contract with him."
"Of course. Don't you know us? Besides, your friend spends hundreds of millions of dollars at random. We dare not cheat him! That would be courting death. Don't worry, I have asked someone to issue a contract. I will go to him to sign the contract tomorrow."
Lou Yuchen hung up the call.
After spending two days with Qiu Shui, Lou Yuchen roughly understood Qiu Shui's personality. Qiu Shui speaks directly and does things the same way. But I didn't expect him to be so naive. He bought the store directly without even signing a contract for a matter of several hundred million yuan, and even wrote Xu Qing and Yu Shiyuan's names on them.
This was because he met Yu Shiyuan, a man of good character. If it were someone else, Qiu Shui would probably have been eaten alive with his bones.
Is Qiu Shui really so simple?
Lou Yuchen felt that it might not be the case, and more likely it was because he trusted him. That's why I also believe in Yu Shiyuan and the others.
He is really a carefree rich young man. He can spend billions of dollars at will. His ideas are so naive.
For a moment, Lou Yuchen felt somewhat conflicted. I feel that Qiu Shui’s ideas are too simple and he will probably be cheated in the future. But I think he's good this way.
