Shen Man and the prince's engagement is approaching, I meditated for several days, and I didn't think of what to give, seeing that there are still a few days before the engagement is going to be held, I really have no choice but to call Chen Qingyi, let her give me some advice, who knows that Chen Qingyi is also worried about buying gifts, the two discussed, and then each set aside half a day to prepare to go to the mall, and there is always a suitable one in the dazzling array of goods.

Since I lost my car, Chen Qingyi seemed to have become my full-time driver, and this time she went to the shop on the commercial street to pick me up, and it was noon, and the two of them planned to go to the mall after lunch.

We chatted again during the meal, and the conversation still revolved around my shop.

"Zhang Yixi, I can hear from the manager of your University City store that your recent sales are very hot!"

"The momentum is not bad." I chose a middle-of-the-road answer, without showing complacency or being able to keep a low profile.

Chen Qingyi sighed: "In fact, except for yourself, we all believe that your rise is only a matter of time, and it is only a week before you return to the store, and you can make sales rise by leaps and bounds, which is difficult for ordinary people to achieve!" ”

"Are you complimenting me?" I asked with a smile.

Chen Qingyi said seriously: "This is really not a compliment, it is a compliment, you can accept this compliment with peace of mind!" ”

I smiled and continued to eat, but Chen Qingyi's conversation box was opened and asked me: "Future Mr. Zhang, what are your plans for your career next?" ”

"Complete the original accumulation within half a year, register the company, and prepare to expand to the surrounding cities."

"That's great, you'll have a physical company in half a year........ By the way, it takes a lot of money to expand to surrounding cities, and you don't plan to solve this part of the funds yourself, right?

"Isn't it just to register a company to facilitate loans, I must choose to take out loans."

"The high interest rate of commercial loans is scary, I think you should look for investment, it just so happens that I know someone who does VC (venture capital), I want to help you introduce and introduce." Chen Qingyi said to me very seriously.

"At present, I only plan to expand on a small scale, I will not need too much capital, a small loan is enough, and we don't have much experience in chain management, and the risk of opening branches in large quantities will be very high, so at this stage, looking for VC is also irresponsible to investors, right? I still hope to lay a solid foundation, and after having experience in the management of chain operations, I will consider financing! ”

Chen Qingyi nodded and said to me: "Two days ago, I discussed with Lin Xi whether to open a branch of Seaview Coffee on a large scale. ”

"Yes....... By the way, how has your Seaview Coffee been doing lately? ”

"It's good, our branch in the city center is already in preparation, and we have just rented a two-storey 600-square-meter shop."

After Chen Qingyi's words were finished, I gasped and asked weakly, "You don't have a loan, or you don't have an investment, right?" ”

Chen Qingyi shook his head and said, "No, Lin Xi and I solved part of it alone, originally I was inclined to pull investment, but Lin Xi resolutely disagreed....... In fact, I know why she is reluctant to invest, and it was not her intention for me to participate in the investment in the first place........ Seaview Coffee, she has always regarded it as your dream with her! Chen Qingyi looked at me after speaking.

I was stunned for a moment, Lin Xi did say so at the beginning, but now he is unwilling to accept investment, is it because, this is really hard to say, after all, "Seaview Coffee" is an absolutely profitable shop, in the case of abundant funds, why bother looking for investment, but also to share a piece of the pie with others!

I didn't dwell with Chen Qingyi about why Lin Xi was unwilling to pull investment, so I changed the topic and asked: "In the 600-square-meter shop in the city center, decoration, equipment, rent, labor costs, and various expenses, at least 4 million yuan should be invested!" ”

Chen Qingyi smiled and replied: "We have prepared a fund of 5 million, and we may have to add it later, after all, we are going to build the largest and most high-grade theme coffee shop in Nantong City." ”

I looked at Chen Qingyi a little speechlessly, how much private money these two women have accumulated!!

Chen Qingyi seemed to see through my thoughts, and said: "Actually, I didn't invest much, mainly Lin Xi, and then there were some funds for the profit of the store in the university town in the early stage." ”

I was a little curious and asked, "Can you be specific?" ”

Chen Qingyi nodded and said with a smile: "I invested one million, and I took out one million from the profit of the university town store in the early stage, and the remaining three million are Lin Xi's, if you want to make additional investment later, it is also Lin Xi's investment, my financial resources are limited!" ”

After Chen Qingyi said the investment ratio, I was even more speechless, people are not comparable, now even if I take 500,000 yuan out to make an investment, what is the concept of a store's investment of 5 million? 5 million, enough for me to open 20 branches of Xiluo men's goods store!

It is foreseeable that once Seaview Coffee is successful in Nantong and embarks on the era of expansion, how big will the impact be on the coffee and Western food industry, a new star of the chain industry is rising, and the future of Seaview Coffee is limitless!!

After I was surprised, Chen Qingyi seemed to jokingly say: "Zhang Yixi, are you interested in joining our career, as long as you are willing to nod, Lin Xi and I will hire you as our professional manager, in addition to the basic salary, and then give you a share share, how about it?" ”

I glanced at Chen Qingyi and said: "Come on, you are suspected of belittling our Xiluo men's goods store, our development potential is not smaller than yours, I don't know who is better in the future!" ”

Chen Qingyi was not to be outdone: "Then let's go and see......"

"Who is afraid of whom, wait for me to dominate the retail industry of men's products in the country, and by the way, I will also buy your seaview coffee, hum~~!"

Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "You really dare to think about it......"

........

"By the way, Zhang Yixi, have you solved the matter with Mr. An?" Chen Qingyi asked which pot was not opened.

I sighed and shook my head.

"And what are you going to do now?" Chen Qingyi asked.

"She's going to leave China recently and go to Europe to open up the market that Lijingxuan has over there!" I said with a little depression.

"Ahh ........ How long is it going to go. Chen Qingyi's face was full of shock, Anqi's decision was really sudden, and the first time I heard Anqi say it was Chen Qingyi's expression.

"A year or two, or maybe it won't come back."

Chen Qingyi stared at me for a long time: "What happened between you, Mr. An can't leave so easily, right?" ”

I was silent for a moment, and finally told Chen Qingyi what had happened recently, she is a trustworthy friend, I quite expect her to give me some advice on this matter, emotionally, my own brain is really not enough!
